Chapter 4: Luoyang has nowhere to talk about desolation
Li Qiufeng opened his mouth, but finally said nothing.
He smiled bitterly and said, "It's okay, I'll chop the vegetables first." ”
"Well, I'll go up with the kids."
"Go ahead."
Li Qiufeng picked up the kitchen knife and cut the vegetables.
Today he chops vegetables, not very carefully.
After only one cup of tea, the dish was cut, and there was a gap between the past.
He put down his kitchen knife, took one last deep breath, and came outside.
Zhang Xiaolei is still eating and drinking.
Li Qiufeng walked to the table beside him and sat down.
And Zhang Xiaolei lit a dry smoke gun.
He slowly exhaled a puff of smoke, and the two of them were silent.
After a while, Zhang Xiaolei finally took the lead in speaking: "I thought you wouldn't recognize me." ”
Li Qiufeng glanced at Zhang Xiaolei, and he smiled bitterly: "You and I have been together for ten years, how can I not recognize you." ”
"That's a bad idea."
"Your appearance has changed, and so has your voice. It's just your eyes, but you can't change it. ”
"Oh?"
"One of your eyes is black, and the other is slightly brown, I saw that you were a little familiar, but I didn't dare to confirm it. Later, when I look at you, I recognize you. ”
"I see."
Zhang Xiaolei muttered: "I thought you would rush out with a kitchen knife." ”
"I won't, and I don't want to ......," Lian He said softly, "I came out to talk to you." ”
"What are you talking about?"
"I hope you can open the net."
Zhang Xiaolei said calmly: "Lian He, will you also talk to me about the net?" How can I, that you should come and plead with me? ”
"I've heard your story, now you're among the top ten, and they all say that you should be impressed by the three days, your transformation is too ......great," Li Qiufeng said seriously, "I know I'm not your opponent." ”
"Oh."
"I've changed over the past two years."
"Oh."
"I had a baby, and the moment I held the baby, I understood what flesh and blood were. When one of my children died, I also understood what the greatest grief in the world was. ”
"Oh."
"These days, I have been burning incense and worshipping the Buddha, hoping to wash away my sins. Whenever there are traffickers, I always save the children and let them go home safely. ”
"Oh."
"Sometimes I think of you and feel sorry for you. At the beginning, I was also young, I didn't know much about things, I was always self-righteous, and I whipped you from time to time. Now that I think about it, I regret it. ”
"Oh."
"I don't know how to ask for your understanding, but I just hope that you have a lot of them. Can you let it pass? I just want to be by my wife and children's side and spend the rest of my life changing myself. If you want, I hope to spend the rest of my life making it up to you. ”
"Oh."
The two of them were silent again.
Zhang Xiaolei took a soft breath and exhaled the smoke.
"Twelve years ago, I was abducted into the Lianjia class. At that time, the buyers didn't want me, and I was scared, crying until my voice was hoarse at night. You came to me and shoved a handful of stones into my mouth, and at the age of five, I had more than twenty broken tongues, a tooth fell out, and blood was dripping on the spot, and you laughed next to me. ”
"I was wrong."
"Eleven years ago, I started somersault. I don't know how many times I fell, and I couldn't learn anything. You were also just learning whips, so you came up with a method, I practice somersaults, and you practice whipping. But every time you whipped at my legs, I couldn't succeed again and again, and your whip made me more and more proficient. At that time, my foot was torn and the bones were visible, and I walked carefully at night for fear of breaking my hamstrings. ”
"I was wrong."
"Ten years ago, I started walking a tightrope, but I was timid. So you took me to a small cliff, cut down a small tree on it, and made me walk over the trunk. If I refuse to go, you will whip me. But I just wouldn't go, and I was beaten off a cliff with a little dirt slope down there. In order not to fall, I held the small dirt slope and did not dare to move, and you pulled fifty-two whip marks on my back. At first, I thought that there should only be two or three in the back, until I met someone who could count my scars. ”
"I was wrong."
"Five years ago, I was no longer beaten for practice because I was getting more proficient. I finally received my salary that day, but it was not much, only three copper coins. I used that money to buy a pancake because I haven't had a bite of it hot since I was five years old. I just took a bite and you kicked me in the back, saying that I was eating bread like a wild dog, and that it made you unhappy. I struck you with an axe, and struck me twice in my chest and stomach, and thanks to the fact that the axe was not sharp, I got my life back, but I lay on the bed for nineteen days as my breastbone was exposed. ”
"I was wrong."
"More than two years ago, I refused to steal the child, you almost broke my leg and pressed my head into the water tank, I was choked and vomited four mouthfuls of blood, and you finally let me go. After that turnaround, I thought you were dead, I was happy, I was comfortable. As a result, you rose from the dead and climbed up from the eighteen layers of hell. ”
"I was wrong."
Zhang Xiaolei stood up slowly, and he said coldly: "What now? Now that you're having a better life, and you're having children, you tell me you regret it, and you tell me you want to start all over again. The past can pass, but what about these scars on my body? What about the pains I've suffered? Is it in the past? ”
Li Qiufeng whispered: "If you think you haven't passed, it's all my fault." I also said that I can compensate you with the rest of my life, and I only hope that you will go around me to survive. Xiao Lei, I'm not discussing with you, I'm praying for you. Isn't that what you've always wanted? ”
Zhang Xiaolei said coldly: "You apologize to me, I forgive you, that is, the apology is done." You apologize to me, I don't forgive you, that also depends on my mood, see my willingness. Lianhe, the things you did to me can't be made up for with a single mistake. ”
"But I ......"
"The only thing that can comfort me is your life. If you tell me the truth, then I will tell you the truth. I am kind, but I am not kind to you. Your children will lose their fathers and your wives will become widows. That's what I'm going to say to you, and I'll leave it here. ”
He put down a piece of broken silver, and then walked out of the Zuiyue Tower, leaving only Li Qiufeng in a daze.
The night butcher hurriedly followed Zhang Xiaolei's side, and when he came out, the sun shone on the street, and Zhang Xiaolei stretched out a little comfortably.
"Mr. Zhang, who is that?"
"It has nothing to do with you, you just do what I arranged."
"Cheng, then listen to you."
"That's a ruthless man, if it's too dangerous, you can get out on your own."
"If even I leave, then Mr. Zhang may not have a way to live, how can he go to see the Shao family master?"
Zhang Xiaolei muttered: "I am a sinner, even if she is made to wait for me in her life, even if she dies in Luoyang, I have no regrets." ”
He bit his smoking gun and walked away slowly.
"Ten years of life and death, without thinking, unforgettable. Thousands of miles of lonely graves, nowhere to talk about desolation. ”
