Bai Shaoliu took away the whole money of six hundred yuan, and the dozens of yuan of change did not move, and then said coldly: "Don't do this kind of thing in the future, otherwise I will really cut it with this knife!" Xiaobai was angry, and the consequences were very serious. As soon as he made a move, he robbed the robber, and he didn't think much about whether the robber would rob more victims after he was robbed.

The reason why he was angry was because of Zhuang Ru, Zhuang Ru's mood had just recovered from despair, and now it had suddenly dropped to the freezing point. Although the man didn't scream, Zhuang Ru saw the terrified look like a ghost. Xiaobai only felt that Zhuang Ru's body was weak and almost didn't faint, and the whole person half fell into his arms. If a woman can scare away the gangsters who block the road in the middle of the night if she shows her appearance, she will not feel good anyway.

Bai Shaoliu half-supported and half-hugged Zhuang Ru and left, leaving the gangster standing there alone. A gust of wind blew, and he suddenly woke up, and now his whole body was soaked with cold sweat. He said to himself: "It's the devil, it must be the devil! My Daolang met two devils, a man and a woman...... It's been a long time since I've repented, and I must repent today, asking God for forgiveness so that I won't be tormented by the devil again. ”

The looter, Daolang, stumbled away, and he turned two blocks to a church. The exterior wall of this church is decorated with red bricks, and the three large spires on the front are very high and majestic, and there is a high cross standing on the spire in the center. It was so late, but Daolang knew that there were still priests on duty here, perhaps because this diocese had just been established, and it was an urgent period for the believers, so the priests here would work every day until midnight.

Daolang walked through the chapel with rows of benches and came to the confessional room on the right. The arrangement of the confessional is very interesting, there are two small rooms side by side under one wall, there is no light in the room, only a chair can sit on people, and when you go in and close the curtain, no one can see inside. There was a small room with a curtain open in the confessional where the confessor sits, and from the one opposite came a kind and solemn voice: "My child, what do you have to repent of at such a late hour?"

Daolang said in a trembling voice: "Father, I met the devil today! I came to ask God's forgiveness and stop letting the devil torment my soul again." ”

Priest: "Devil, in the shadow of darkness, everyone has a devil hidden in their hearts, all beings are sinners, and we should ask for forgiveness from the Lord with a sincere heart." God will not give up on anyone, and the light of the Lord will shine on your soul and guide everyone on the way to the kingdom of heaven. ...... How did you meet the devil?"

Daolang: "I'm guilty, forced by life, I'm going to rob again today-"

Priest: "The Lord said, 'Thou shalt not kill, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not steal'. The devil is actually hiding in your heart. Only pious repentance can cleanse your soul and God may forgive your sins. ...... What kind of devil have you encountered? Can you tell me more about it?" the first half of the pastor's remarks are normal, but the second half of his remarks are unusual. He heard a lot of all kinds of sins in the confessional, and his duty was only to listen and admonish rather than punish and hold accountable, and he wanted to make more people aware of their original sins before God, so as to lead them to devout faith. But today, the priest made an exception and began to ask about the "devil......

When Daolang walked out of the church, he felt a lot calmer, and he was relieved again. Although repentance was not enough for him to give up the robbery, when he looked back and saw the cross, there was an increase in admiration, and at the same time a sense of spiritual comfort.

Daolang is not a local, he comes from a far away, the southwesternmost Tianji Plateau of Zhixu. On the Tianji Plateau, Daolang belongs to a gang of roadblockers and robbers, robbing convoys and merchants on the vast and sparsely populated highways. After each move, he had a habit of going to the local monastery to pray to the Bodhisattva for his sins. But when he turns around, he still has to rob, and when he resists, he will still kill and injure people, because he needs to rob things to live a good life.

Later, Daolang's gang was defeated by the special patrol, and the dead were caught, and Daolang left the Tianji Plateau to come to the bustling Wuyou City in order to avoid pursuit. Here he did not find the monastery, but the church appeared. Confession in church is much better than prayer in a monastery, because there is a priest who will have a private chat with you one-on-one. You can speak out about your sins without worrying about them being revealed, and you don't need anything other than devotion to the Lord. This method is undoubtedly "humane" a lot, and Daolang is even a little addicted.

Not to mention what Daolang said when he went to church, Bai Shaoliu didn't know that he and Zhuang Ru had become "devils". He helped Zhuang Ru all the way home to send her home, Zhuang Ru's body trembled a little, and he leaned on half of his body softly, and the breath emanating from his body was also very good. I believe that every man will be tempted, but when I think of her half of her terrible face, this mood will disappear again. Bai Shaoliu tried not to think about this, and sent Zhuang Ru home without speaking all the way, and she could feel that her mood was very low.

Opening the security door and helping Zhuang Ru to sit on the sand in the living room, Bai Shaoliu asked, "Sister Zhuang, do you have alcohol and cotton wool at home?" ”

Zhuang Ru's eyes seemed to be looking far ahead and said: "Is it still necessary, my appearance is ugly enough, even the gangsters can be scared away, what is the point of adding another scar?"

Bai Shaoliu: "You can't say that, the half of your face now is really not good-looking, but it's not your fault that you're injured." Didn't you just say that you want to find a way to get plastic surgery. If you really can't sell this big house and replace it with a small house, to what extent can it be renovated. There will always be a way, and there is no need for you to be so desperate every day, and it is impossible to make things better. Think about it and find something to do, it must be stronger than it is now. ”

Zhuang Ru withdrew his gaze from a distance and looked at Xiao Bai, with a little gratitude in his eyes: "Xiao Bai, just now on the street, you took away the gangster's knife, why didn't you know that you had this kind of ability?"

Bai Shaoliu: "I haven't met gangsters before, how do you know? Actually, I have practiced kung fu for a few days, and there should be no problem in dealing with a few small thieves." ”

Zhuang Ru: "With your skills, you don't have to worry about finding a new job." But the way I ......."

Bai Shaoliu: "Sister Zhuang, you're here again, don't think about these things anymore, the more you think about it, the more uncomfortable it becomes." ...... You can use the 3,000 yuan to pay this month's mortgage first, and then find a way to do other things. Where is the cotton wool, I will help you deal with the wound, one less scar is better than one more scar. ”

Zhuang Ru: "My medicine box is in the bottom drawer of the cabinet in my bedroom. ...... Xiaobai, why are you so nice to me? I don't have anything to give you. ”

Bai Shaoliu smiled: "Am I very good to you? It's just that I met you on the way to take you home, you used to be very good to me, and you also helped me get a ticket at the airport." ”

Zhuang Ru: "If you lend me the 3,000 yuan, do you still have the money to use?" Listening to what you said on the street, it seems that you want to go to the park to sleep on a bench. ”

Bai Shaoliu: "Don't worry, didn't you see me robbing? I robbed that gangster of 600 yuan, which happened to be my month's rent." Didn't you say I had no problem finding a job? ”

Zhuang Ru: "Fortunately, I met you, I feel much better now, think about it, I still have a way." If this house is sold at the market price, it should be around 1.1 million, except for the one-time repayment of the bank loan, I can still have more than 600,000 left, which is enough for a long time, but it is a pity that I have renovated. ”

Bai Shaoliu: "It's not a pity, the price of pork and the house has risen in the past half a year, and your house has also appreciated a lot." More than 600,000 yuan is a huge amount of money for me? I, a person with only 600 yuan, are not worried, what do you have to despair?"

Zhuang Ru: "Xiaobai, it's so comfortable to listen to you! It's so strange, you seem to know how to make me feel better?...... If you're not afraid of seeing my scary face every day, just move here, I still have two empty rooms, you can pick one at will, it's better than going out and spending money to rent a house. ”

Bai Shaoliu: "Aren't you going to sell?"

Zhuang Ru: "Before it is sold, you can still live in it! Besides, there is no need to be too anxious, I suddenly remembered that I still have a sum of money in the bank, which should be used for half a year." Recently, the value of houses in this area of the city center has appreciated rapidly, and it is a pity to sell them in a hurry. ”

Bai Shaoliu: "You still have such a sum of money in the bank, so why didn't you withdraw the money today?"

Zhuang Ru: "It's not money in a passbook, it's money in a public account." My mind has been very messy for a while, and I can't think of anything, but now I think of it when my heart calms down. In fact, you also have this money......"

When a person is in despair, he feels that it is dark in front of him, he can't see any road, and he will hit his head on a tree when he walks. But when he calms down and can think about problems, he realizes that he still has a lot of ways to think about it. Zhuang Ru's situation is like this, fortunately, she met Bai Shaoliu. Bai Shaoliu paid attention to the emotions in her heart, and carefully guided her to restore her calm, she really remembered something and told Xiaobai.
