Chapter 16: Old Photographs and Children (2)

"Come back, come back, why bring back a child. "I was looking at the RV parked at the door, and Meng Zhuxi walked down from the car with a small child. This little girl is quite beautiful, and she always feels a little familiar when she looks at it. After Du Ling parked the car, he went into the house and went back to the room, and the little girl was taken away by Yang Yu, rubbing her face for a while, and hugging and playing happily.

"His parents have mutated, so I'll bring them back first. Meng Zhuxi pulled me aside and pointed to Du Ling's room with me. Along the way, Du Ling was not normal, and he always felt that he had hidden some things in his heart and didn't tell us. However, Meng Zhuxi didn't ask him, let him digest it by himself first. In the living room, the three girls looked at the new child, and the mother's love began to overflow. Looking at the clothes in the inventory from the mall, I rushed to buy clothes for the little girl. The little girl held the rag doll and looked at the three older sisters opposite shyly.

"These three aunts are like this, it's okay, this will be your home from now on. I stroked her hair, smiled and tried to be as kind as I could and not scare the children. Suddenly, my Killing Intent Skill was triggered, and suddenly three inexplicable murderous auras began to burn behind me. One punch, one kick and one claw, Li Ruoxi's claw hooked my neck, Yang Yu's punch hammered directly into my stomach, and finally Xu Xinyi's kick kicked me out directly. Watching me roll around on the ground with my stomach covered and humming, the three of them wanted to tear me apart in their eyes. Xu Xinyi took the little girl's hand and went to the bathroom, and Yang Yu and Li Ruoxi also picked up their clothes and walked away without looking at me. Meng Zhuxi looked at me rolling on the ground, sighed and went back to the room.

Du Ling sat in the room, looking at the two photos in his hand. The torn cracks of the two photos can be just together, an old photo that has faded a little, two naughty children, twenty years later, can still be on the same photo. The complete picture appears in Du Ling's hand, and the faded photo shows a little boy holding a doll's ear in his hand, running wildly in the clearing, and the little girl behind him chasing him angrily. After the photo was frozen, the fact was that the little boy Oh turned around and laughed at the little girl, shaking his trophy in the air, only to stumble over the pebbles under his feet and eat. The little girl rode on top of him, carrying the doll he had destroyed and slapping him on the head. In the end, the little boy kept begging for mercy from the woman on his back, and then got up from the ground.

Putting the two photos together and sandwiching them in the frame, Du Ling sat on the bed and looked at the frame, and touched his pocket to find that he had finished his cigarettes.

"That's it, I haven't seen you for so many years, are you okay, do you still hate me. Du Ling looked outside and bought a box of cigarettes from the mall, but this time he only held it in his mouth and didn't light it. Since that incident when he was a child, what he has feared most for so many years is open fire. Later, I wanted to overcome my own problem, so I learned to smoke, and every time the flame that popped out of the lighter still scared me, but the fear was anesthetized by the smoke a little. I thought that after being separated when I was a child, I would never have a chance to see it again in the future, but I didn't expect to see not only a photo this time, but also a little girl who looked so similar. His fingers touched the cigarette in his mouth and pushed open the door of his house.

In the living room, the little child had already mingled with these big sisters, and I was forced by Xu Xinyi to be ridden by this little girl and swayed in the living room. Du Ling looked at me who was riding as a big horse and stroked my forehead, and originally said that he would chat with me and try to open his heart knot, but I was quite happy to accompany a bear child here. Meng Zhuxi sat on the sofa, watching Du Ling come out of the house, turned around and closed the door and went back. He stood up and looked at the Nunu mouth, who was quite happy to play, and just now he was reluctant to sprinkle everywhere, but the child rode and played for a while and then he had fun, and now this child is closer to me than to her three sisters. "Can I get in. Meng Zhuxi knocked on Du Ling's door, and pushed open the door, and Du Ling was smoking smoke inside. He stood by the window smoking a cigarette and casually helped Meng Zhuxi get a stool. An original talker, now I don't want to say more, a stuffy gourd, I don't know how to say it. The two of them sat in Du Ling's room, one smoking a cigarette and looking out the window, the other rubbing his fingers and typing his draft.

"Okay, you are a stuffy gourd, and you don't know how to persuade people. Du Ling looked at Meng Zhuxi, who was sitting and not talking, and ran over to persuade him, it is estimated that the person who persuaded and persuaded him wanted to die. was originally sad and sad, and it was estimated that he would have to hang himself if he persuaded him, Du Ling really didn't expect that it was him who came in, it could be me, it could be Zhou Jia, or Yang Yu was more likely than him.

"I don't know what to say, just say it, you say it and I listen, it's better than holding it by yourself. Meng Zhuxi thought about it for a long time, and finally only held back such a sentence. Sure enough, this kind of persuasion work is better for me or Zhou Jia. He can't say a few words for half a day, so he advises people not to try it in the future. Du Ling lit another cigarette, turned his back to him and smoked, after a few minutes, the room was quiet all the time, Meng Zhuxi was ready to withdraw, or find us in the future.

"Remember, when I was a child, you always laughed at me for being cowardly. I'm not afraid of the cannon bombing me, I'm afraid of the flames that jumped out of the lighter. I've been scared of the flames until now, and I hate and fear what I'm capable of now. I've also been wondering if it would be better and stronger if this flame ability was given to you, or to Wang Xuzheng. The fire I'm unleashing on me now is still the kind of horror that lies deep in my soul. Only when I have the power to protect you and the people around me will I have some peace of mind in my heart. Du Ling carried Meng Zhuxi on his back, and the cigarette in his mouth was about to burn to the end, and the cigarette in the room was floated out of the window by him when he opened the window. There was always a slight chill in the autumn evenings, and the chill poured into Du Ling's room with the window, blowing the cigarette in his mouth faster than ever. In this autumn, Du Ling rarely showed his decadent side, he has always been optimistic and active. Because he wanted to escape, he kept trying to escape the little kid in his heart. The little kid was chasing him all the time, asking him all the time, why did you keep running away, just like in that fire, you kept running away.

After Du Ling finished speaking, he was silent for a while, and the smoke had already burned out.

"When I was a kid, when I didn't know you, I had a little girlfriend. Her house is next door to our house, the two of us always sneak out to play, I was a very naughty little leather child when I was a child, always trying to mess with her in front of her, every day we were playing, I suddenly began to be angry with her. In the end, she usually chased me around the courtyard, and when I was chased in the end, I would inevitably be beaten up. With that, Du Ling turned around and smiled. At that time, she was beaten quite miserably, what kind of ballet did the little girls learn, she learned taekwondo and martial arts. "Then one day she invited me to play hide and seek in her house, which was quite big. I sneaked into the kitchen that day, and I was in the cupboard watching her look around in the kitchen, and I was in the cupboard watching her look around and laugh secretly. After a while, a man walked up to my cupboard, and I looked through the crack as if it was her maid. One hand opened the cupboard I was hiding, as if to twist the jar next to it, I didn't know it was a gas canister at the time, I carried it in for a while, I felt a little dizzy and ran out. I watched their house from the lawn outside their house. After a while, the light of the fire came from her house, and the tongues of fire began to rage in all directions from the kitchen. ”

He paused, raised his right hand, and a small flame ignited on the tip of his index finger. The light of the fire shone on his face, and the originally warm flames were even colder to him than the biting autumn wind outside. When he saw the flames burning, he rushed in through the doorway, calling out her name in a huge house, and the original hide and seek changed roles. It was getting hotter and hotter inside the house, and the servants of the house were scattering in all directions, and Du Ling, who was still a child, walked in the crowd. The clothes on her body were already soaked with sweat, and her voice could be faintly heard. Du Ling couldn't help but run, and in the depths of the house, in her parents' bedroom, her cry came from it. Inside the house, her father was half-kneeling on the ground holding his stomach, her mother was desperately protecting her, and a maid was fiercely facing the family with a fruit knife.

The moment he pushed the door open, the original stalemate scene was broken by the moment he pushed the door open. The man who was half-kneeling just now rushed desperately towards the maid, and the maid's right hand stabbed the man several times with the sharp fruit knife, but the man still held her down, and her mother ran towards him with her in her arms. Du Ling looked at the fierce maid blankly, the knife was finally stuck in the man's neck, blood was running on the floor, and her mother pushed her daughter to Du Ling. Then he rushed to the maid, and Du Ling led her to run through the already burning corridor, her house was full of Chinese decorations, and the originally beautiful wooden beams were burning in the flames. The two little children were coughing and running in the flames, and they were about to reach the door, and fresh air was already pouring in. Du Ling took a deep breath of fresh air, and was about to take her out at that moment. A burning plank fell, separating him from her.

Eventually, the fire grew bigger and bigger, and her throat was hoarse from the heat, and Du Ling heard her last words say, "Run." ”

In that flame, Dulin escaped, but he lost his playmate, he lost everything he had as a child. Later, he learned from his father that she had miraculously survived the fire, and that the wooden beam had only burned the skin of her right eye. She was sent to live with distant relatives, and on the day she left, it was raining in the sky, and she looked at the burned house with an umbrella, and she watched in the rain, and he hid in the rain. He watched as her blonde hair was burned to the ground, and he had to wear a hat to block the burned skin. He watched as she was picked up in the car and left, and he watched from behind. At that time, he kept running away, and he escaped until now, until he saw this picture again.

"Since there is still a chance to see her, I will not run away anymore, and the flame can also bring warmth. ”
