Chapter 14 Death is Short
"You should go to the police, not me." Nangong Mo leaned back, his posture was leisurely, his eyes were gentle, and he didn't mean to help at all.
"Big brother, are you really not going to meddle?" Nangong Pei'er spoke at the right time, "In the past, you even helped people like Yi Yuanxiang, why didn't you help her?" ”
"Yi Yuanxiang can give me ten percent of Yi's shares, what can she give me?" Nangong Mo looked at Nangong Pei'er and asked rhetorically.
Gong Mo was instantly angry when he heard this, "I gave you ten percent of the shares, didn't you cross the river and tear down the bridge and fall into the well?" I didn't expect that Second Brother Mo would one day become a slave to money and power, with a mercenary businessman face. ”
Nangong Mo laughed warmly, with a smile at the corners of his eyes, and he was in a good mood: "In today's world, who is not like this?" I am a businessman, and businessmen naturally pay attention to the exchange of interests, and in the entire southern city and even in China, who is not a slave of money and power? Trying to use the so-called fairness and justice you have learned from textbooks to measure this society and people's hearts is bound to disappoint you. If there was fairness and justice, then you would stand here? You are also slaves of money and power, and your own skills are not enough, so you want to make two people of equal strength go head-to-head, there are no fools in this world, no one will do anything beneficial. ”
Bai Mo stood up and chuckled, with bitterness and helplessness in his smile: "You are really more ruthless than the other, and each one is more free to retract." Nangong Mo, let me tell you a secret, if you know it and decide not to make a move, then I will fight for this life, and I will protect her well. ”
Nangong Mo chuckled, "It depends on the weight of your secret." ”
Bai Mo put his hands in his trouser pockets, walked to the floor-to-ceiling window and looked at the endless stream below, his eyebrows and eyes were flat, and his tone was slight: "I have loved her for five years, deep into the bone marrow." Hearing this, Nangong Mo raised his eyebrows slightly, Gong Mo and Nangong Pei'er glanced at each other, and listened to Bai Mo's next words: "But she told me that if the bone and blood are poisonous, you must remove the bone and draw the blood to live." I asked her if she ever loved me, and she said she wanted to live with me for the rest of her life. ”
Nangong Mo's tone was slightly deep, and there was a look of displeasure on his face: "What you want to tell me is how you promise each other for life, and how deep and affectionate you are?" ”
Bai Mo ripped the corners of his mouth, and there was something in the mouth, salty.
"Although she wants to live with me for the rest of her life, she doesn't love me, the person she has in her heart is like a day for ten years, and my love is a shackle for her. If I seized that opportunity and didn't let her come to Nandu, even if she didn't love me, she would live a stable life for the rest of her life, and I would protect her for the rest of her life. Bai Mo turned to look at Nangong Mo, his eyebrows and eyes were sad, which was completely inconsistent with the previous ruffian's imagination, "Nangong Mo, do you know why she came back?" ”
Nangong Mo raised his eyebrows, disapproving, "What else can she do besides revenge?" ”
Bai Mo nodded, with a wry smile on the corner of his mouth, and said, "Revenge? Scold. If she hadn't known that she might only have about three years to live, she would never have come back in her life, and she wouldn't have put herself in a dangerous situation. She doesn't care how others scold her for being wolf-hearted, and she doesn't care what others say about her ruthlessness, she puts aside her emotions, doesn't care about her life, and does everything to achieve her goals, but she never argues for herself, she is not for the identity of the fourth lady of the Yi family, nor for the glory and wealth, she has no regrets for death. Bai Mo turned around, still looking into the distance through the transparent glass window, "She doesn't want anyone to see her embarrassment, I knew about it three years ago, she came to Nandu quietly, and she didn't say hello." Do you know why she has to have an ID card? ”
Bai Mo's thoughts were pulled back to three years ago, on the day of the high school entrance examination, Yi Yan deliberately avoided his examination room and slipped away alone, Bai Mo thought that Yi Yan just didn't do well in the exam, and wanted to be quiet alone. When he wanted to go to an Internet café to play games, he saw the sneaky and cautious Ilip enter a cemetery agency.
Out of curiosity, Bai Mo quietly followed, and just after arriving at the door, he heard the sound of conversation inside. The owner of the cemetery agency is an old man in his fifties, rigid and conservative, with a pair of elegant black-framed glasses, I heard that he was also a scholarly family before, but because the family is in the middle, he understands feng shui, so he opened this cemetery agency.
On both sides of the entrance of the cemetery introduction center, there are whitened red couplets, and half of the wind is swaying and flying, and on a summer day in June, standing at the door of the introduction center will feel cool, and the hairs stand on end and goosebumps stand up.
The old pedant's eyes were on his nose, he hung his head and raised his eyes to look at Yi lip in a daze, and his shrill voice was like a eunuch in a TV series, "Girl, who are you going to find a cemetery for?" ”
Yi looked at the old pedant, his light eyebrows and eyes were a little helpless, and he said softly: "Myself." ”
Hearing this, the old scholar raised his head and looked at Yi's lips, his eyes burned with some surprise: "It's too early to find a cemetery at your age, come back later." ”
"It's not early, maybe, it won't be long before it will be used, so find it first, lest you die without a place to live." Yi said disapprerovantly.
"Fallen leaves pay attention to the roots, the rules of a hundred years, young people rarely have the dignity to die, even if it really encounters an accident, it is not possible to do the aftermath in a big way, you are looking for a grave for yourself, this is not in accordance with the rules. Besides, people must first have a place to come from before they can have a way back, are you from Linjiang County? ”
"It's not."
"Then this cemetery found here, and others criticized it as a guest death. The tombstone is also exquisite, even if it is buried in the future and buried in the treasure of feng shui, there is no roster of you in the underworld, it is also a lonely ghost and a wild ghost. Even if you don't have relatives or friends, you have to find a leader, otherwise you will suffer while you live, and you will not be at peace when you die. ”
"How does the old gentleman know that I have no relatives or friends?"
"It's not hard to guess that you, a disgruntled eighteen-year-old girl, can calmly find a graveyard for yourself, but if my guess is right, you don't even have anything to prove your identity. If you have no identity, how can you place a cemetery, so that you can't be reincarnated in the future, and disturb the peace of others? ”
Yi Yan stopped answering, nodded at the old pedant, turned around and left. Bai Mo hid aside, and when he saw Yi lip straightening his back and walking alone on the dirty and messy streets of Linjiang County, he didn't know what it was like, and he wanted to cry sadly.
Nangong Mo heard Bai Mo tell the story, his brows furrowed, and his mind recalled what Yi Yi said in the Rosewood Garden, "This thing is given by God, I want to spare my life, but who knows when he will be in a bad mood and take it back, since it's not up to me to decide, why cherish it?" ”
Gong Mo looked at Bai Mo in surprise, Nangong Pei'er's eyes were red, and she asked in a trembling voice: "You said that she was looking for a cemetery for herself at the age of fifteen?" ”
Bai Mo nodded, and sighed in a sad tone: "In my impression, she has always been very sorry for her life, but she seems to have changed after that time. Linjiang County is a backward mountainous area, and there are many customs of ethnic minorities, so there is no reason for her to be buried in Linjiang County as an outsider. Even the old pedant at the cemetery said that she would disturb the peace of others. is alive without an identity, even the high school entrance examination is Qin Ran's father found a relationship, if she doesn't have an identity, she doesn't even have a chance to take the college entrance examination, and she can't go anywhere, so she wants an identity. ”
Gong Mo asked, "What's wrong with Xiao Si?" Last time in the hospital, your master also said, what happened to her? ”
Bai Mo chuckled: "Fatalism, sometimes you have to believe it. She believed in fate, so she always felt that she would either be miserable all her life or spend her life atoning for her sins, so she came back. In the ten years in Linjiang County, every year a woman will go to Lin Chao's house, give Lin Chao's parents a pill, and forcibly pour it into her, she can't eat enough at Lin's house, can't dress warmly, is abused, and is also Wang Cheng's bastard......" Bai Mo said that his eyes instantly turned gloomy, and his face was also heavy and could drip ink, and he still didn't say the words later, and then he stabilized his emotions and continued: "Her heart and cranial nerves are seriously damaged, and even her master is proficient in pharmacology and is powerless to return to the sky, and the Southern Xinjiang Witch Gu itself is the root of evil, In order not to have regrets after death, she nourished Gu with blood and lived in symbiosis with Gu, which is why she can still know what happened in Nandu even though she is not in Nandu. ”
Gong Mo was shocked, looked at Bai Mo sluggishly and said in a daze: "You said that she raises Gu and knows how to witchcraft?" ”
Nangong Mo looked at Bai Mo with deep eyebrows, as if she was distinguishing the truth from the falsehood in Bai Mo's words, but looking at Bai Mo's appearance, there seemed to be no lie, no wonder every time she saw Yi Lip, she felt that the breath around her body was lifeless, and her face was as pale as she had just recovered from a serious illness, and her weak body always made people feel like she was going to fall down in the next second.
Bai Mo looked at Nangong Mo, the gloom in his eyebrows was obvious, and his tone was not at all polite, "Nangong Mo, are you ready to meddle now?" If you still say that you need a bargaining chip price, then I will give you this life in Baimo, is it enough? ”
"Since you're willing to give me your life to save her, why don't you risk yourself to save her?" Nangong Mo sneered, unmoved, and his appearance was indifferent in Bai Mo's eyes, like a businessman's mercenary face.
Bai Mo walked to Nangong Mo's desk in a few steps, clapped his hands on the table, leaned forward and looked at Nangong Mo angrily, "The most wretched thing about my Bai Mo's eighteen years of life is that I can't do anything about her, I have no power, no power, no family, I can't fight God, I can't fight fate, I can't play power, some just have a pair of fists and a head, and I can't eliminate disasters for her, even if I fight for this life, I can't change anything, but you are different, you can save her." ”
Nangong Mo slowly raised his eyes and looked at Bai Mo's angry face, "What's different about me?" My power, my power, and my money are all planned by myself step by step, and I didn't occupy the light of the Nangong family at all, when I started, you were the same as Bai Mo, you had no power, no power, no family, and now you want me to use my power to make an example of a monkey to help an irrelevant outsider? Why? ”
