Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Male and Female Thieves

The pond is calm, but there is a tsunami in his heart.

He was shocked,

Nothing like this had ever happened in his career as a thief.

That year, Shi Yanxin was twenty-four years old and Shui Yanzi was eighteen years old, and they fell in love.

The master entered the crematorium, and a wisp of green smoke burned out, and a bird flew right over the chimney, over the master's body that no longer existed. The door was locked, the cat was missing, and only a vine in the courtyard remained. At this time, the autumn mood is thick, the frost dyes the yellow leaves, the insects sing the grass bottom, the grapes hang with crystal dewdrops, Shi Yanxin and the water swallow pick a grape and put it in the mouth, sweet and sour with coolness.

They left Hetang Village and rented a house in the county seat, and instead of stealing, they took a driver's license test at a driving school.

Shui Yanzi said: "Brother Yi, let's learn to drive, we can steal cars, and we will always make money." ”

Shi Yanxin said: "Yan'er, I want to drive a car and take you around the country." ”

At that time, subject 2 was different from now, such as walking around the discus and crossing a unilateral bridge. The second subject is to practice reversing into the garage, turning at right angles, driving in curves, starting on ramps, and stopping in the side direction. Three months later, both got their driver's licenses and learned how to drive.

In the winter, when the first snow fell, their rental house was next to the street, and a large truck pulling coal was parked on the side of the road, and the driver was drunk in the restaurant.

The water swallow said, "Brother, let's buy some coal too, it's so cold." ”

Shi Yanxin said: "You don't need to buy coal, I'll take you to a warm place." ”

They stole the big truck and drove 500 kilometers in one night to sell coal in a strange city.

At that time, the monitoring facilities of the highway were not perfect, only a fake license plate was needed, and the stolen car could be unimpeded, even if the traffic police could not verify the authenticity of the network, as long as the active intersection of the fine will be released.

All the way to the south, the south is not cold.

There are many distribution stations along the national highway, and they don't care what goods they give them, as long as they go south.

They live as they please, they are free, they never lose their way, they just enjoy their time on the road.

It has been said that body and soul, there must be one on the way.

The two people took the car as their home, they modified the carriage, isolated a space, put in a bed, put in a table and folding stool, put in pots and pans, firewood, rice, oil and salt, can not only live, but also pull goods, this became their RV, this is a home they stolen.

They drove big trucks, all the way, all the way to steal.

In Wuhan, they went to the movies, specifically stealing the belongings of the front-row audience, and after a movie, they could steal several gold necklaces and more than a dozen wallets without realizing it.

In Changsha and Guilin, they stole several mobile phone stores at night, and at that time there were no smart touch screen mobile phones, and the more popular mobile phones had flip covers, sliding covers, and straight boards, and they filled several plastic bags with such mobile phones.

In Chaohu Lake, Anhui Province, they entered a villa by the lake and stayed for three nights, the owner of the villa was working in the field, the house was idle, they ate and slept in it, and lay on the sofa watching TV.

The swallow said, "In the future, we will also buy a house like this." ”

Shi Yanxin said: "It is not enough to steal mobile phones and wallets. ”

The swallow said, "What then?" ”

Shi Yanxin said: "You can steal the money of those corrupt officials, and their money does not dare to deposit in the bank."

, hiding in the office and at home. ”

The water swallow said: "When the money we stole is enough to buy a villa, let's get married!" ”

Shi Yanxin said, "Okay." ”

Although it was someone else's home, when she left, the water swallow was a little reluctant, she cleaned up the bed, washed the pots and pans, and mopped the floor of the villa. This has nothing to do with quality, it may stem from a woman's longing for marriage. Shi Yanxin and Shui Yanzi met a fellow villager by chance in Liuzhou and asked about some things in the village.

Whose family built a new house, whose son went to jail, whose family stole a priceless piece of jade.

The father of the village chief of the thief's cloak died, and no one cared about him, and he wandered around the county all day, mingling with a group of ruffians.

Shi Yanxin and Shui Yanzi continued south to Guangxi, passing through a country road, where they parked their big truck on the side of the road and went to a small restaurant to eat. There was a gang of oil thieves driving a van and trying to drain the fuel from the truck's tank under the cover of night.

Truck drivers are sometimes seen resting on rope beds hanging from the car and the front of the vehicle, in fact, to protect the fuel tank from theft.

Shi Yanxin was furious, he traveled south and north, stealing all over the country, and this time he actually met a few thieves who dared to beat him.

Shi Yanxin and Shui Yanzi immediately chased after the gang of oil thieves, and the truck crashed into the van, killing and injuring the oil thieves.

This traffic accident became a turning point in their fate, the police caught the water swallow, and Shi Yanxin ran away in confusion. Under the threat of electric batons, the water swallows confessed all the facts of the crime, how they stole the car, how they stole all the way, and how they hit and killed people, and all kinds of things were shaken away.

The interrogator said, "Do you want to make meritorious service?" The sentence can be reduced and you will be sentenced a few years less. ”

The water swallow said: "How can you make meritorious service? ”

The interrogator said, "Your subject ran away, you help us catch him." ”

The swallow said, "I don't want to, I want him to run away." ”

The interrogator said: "If you were to commit these crimes alone, you might be sentenced to more than 10 years, even life imprisonment." ”

Shui Yanzi helped the police trap Shi Yanxin, and the two sat in the same police car, without saying a word or even looking at each other. Two people who once loved each other were strangers in an instant. The passion of love feeds the cold wind, and the indifference of hate grows into evil ghosts.

A few years later, when Shi Yanxin was released from prison, he came to a crossroads, didn't know where to go, thought for a while, and headed west.

People always have to go through the wrong choices to find the right direction.

Penniless, he stole again, and in a hospital he stole money from someone else's medical treatment, and the man committed suicide in despair and jumped from the building. He looked at the bloody corpse in front of him, and felt remorse, but it was fleeting, and then he felt that life was impermanent, and the joy and sorrow were uncertain. Since then, he has switched to a vegetarian diet, and he is disgusted when he sees meat.

He put down his late-night wine and got used to the morning porridge.

Shi Yanxin has traveled to Tibet and even as far as India, reading a lot of books along the way. Sometimes, he also thinks of the water swallow, at first, he was angry that the water swallow betrayed him and helped the police trap him, but then the clouds were light, and he let go of the relationship. Swallow had also been released from prison at that time, and continued her career as a thief, stealing officials' offices, and her only wish was to save money to buy a big house.

He is at peace with what he encounters, aimless, stops when he wants, and leaves when he wants.

When the wind and sand come, they walk into the wind and sand.

When it snows heavily, stand in the snow.

Shi Yanxin visited all over the famous mountains and rivers, and went to steal if he had no money. One day, he got lost in the mountains, found a temple at night, sneaked into the main hall, and wanted to steal the money in the merit box, but was caught by the night patrol monks, who thought that he would be beaten and then sent to the police station, but unexpectedly, the temple abbot actually released him.

The Nightwatch Monk said, "He wanted to steal our money, so he let him go?" ”

The abbot, a kind old monk, asked rhetorically, "Is this money really ours?" ”

The night watchman was hesitant and didn't know how to answer.

The abbot said, "This money comes from sentient beings, and he is one of them. ”

Shi Yanxin was very embarrassed, and turned his head to leave.

The abbot said, "Donor, you forgot to take your money. ”

The old monk pointed to the merit box.

Shi Yanxin turned to the old monk with a fierce gaze, and shouted in a rough voice: "What does this mean, do you know who I am?" I've been a thief, I've stolen cars, I've stolen wallets, I've stolen mobile phones, I've stolen all sorts of things, I've been in jail, maybe I've killed someone. ”

The abbot said: "Donor, I don't know who you are, I only know that you are tired and hungry, this money can make you full, find a hotel to sleep in, know that this is enough." ”

Shi Yanxin said: "I'm a thief, you caught me, not only didn't beat me, but also asked me to take away the money?" ”

The abbot said, "The money is also yours, and you can come and take it at any time." After saying that, the old monk turned around and walked away, leaving him alone, after all, thieves also have a sense of shame, and they are embarrassed to blatantly take out the money in the merit box in front of everyone.

He took out the money angrily, put it in his arms, and walked out of the hall.

There is a pond outside the hall, and the lotus flowers are blooming, and there are dew drops in the center of each leaf, and there is a bright moon in each dewdrop.

He looked down and saw it all.

The pond is calm, but there is a tsunami in his heart.

He was shocked, he had never done anything like it in his theft career.

He came here because he got lost and left in a trance.

Every lotus flower in this world blooms where it should open.

Everyone in this world is where he must be.

In a small town down the mountain, Shi Yanxin got a haircut in a barber shop, and the barber asked him what hairstyle he wanted.

Shi Yanxin said: "Shave your head, it's cool." ”

In front of the barbershop's mirror is a wooden table with scissors, a comb, a sponge, a hair dryer, and an old radio. He tied a cloth and looked at himself in the mirror, the barber shaved his hair little by little, and a song played on the radio - "Freedom" by Huang Siting.

Lost in fame and fortune for the blessing of the worries

It's like a fog that hangs over you

O man who is at ease with his thoughts

Like a spring rain moistening the lotus flower

Floating like falling flowers and flowing water

Someone who is on the go

The beauty of the heart dyes looks at the changes of mortal dust

The blooming practice is sublimated

Yes...... Yes......

A Buddhist song made him have an epiphany, the temple bell came from afar, he went up the mountain to become a monk, and the abbot gave the Dharma name Yanxin.
