After becoming the group pet of the Public Procuratorate

It didn't take long before a sweat-soaked mark gradually appeared on the wall, and his father threw him in a corner, kicking and kicking him.

Bai Ming's clothes were in tatters, his body was covered with torn bruises, his gums were bleeding, and his tongue was covered with a salty taste. He curled up to a corner, like a ball of cotton that had been torn at will, crying heartbreakingly.

My father didn't stop because of this, but continued to fight with fists and kicks.

The night was pitch black, like thick ink that couldn't be shaken, pressing tightly on the sky above Baihe Town.

75. Gifts

In the middle of the night, Bai Ming fell to the ground.

After his father vented all his anger on him, he turned his head and went back to the house to sleep, while his mother applied medicine for him, changed his clothes, and laid a bed on the floor in the store. Although the mother was heartbroken , but she was helpless, day after day in such a situation, even she herself could not get rid of the fate of being beaten, let alone her weak son.

Bai Ming's eye sockets are like a dry river bed, no more drops can be squeezed out.

The long wind secretly hides the spring, picks up the fragrance of flowers from the leaves, and passes through it steeply, bringing a little coolness to the warm night.

A beam of moonlight pierced through the clouds and fog, and shone into the house from outside the door, falling on the white and disheveled hair. He slowly raised his arm, only to feel a pain all over his body. He gently wiped the sweat from his forehead, trying to maintain a posture .

Just as he was looking at the beams, there was a sharp whistle outside the house. The sound was clear and loud, and it disappeared into the night with a swish. At first he thought it was the cry of a nightingale, but after the sound rang three times, Only gradually did he realize that someone was whistling with their fingers.

He raised his head slowly, sat up from the ground, opened the door and looked outside, only to see a head protruding from the south wall, he took a closer look, that person was his brother Tiger.

Lu Wu clung to the edge of the wall, saw the child finally found himself, and hurriedly stretched out his hand to call him out.

Bai Ming was stunned, his astonishment filled with joy, he smiled naturally, stood up with difficulty, walked to the courtyard, and looked up at Lu Wu on the high wall.

The night was so thick that Lu Wu couldn't see the child's face clearly, so he said in a low voice, "Xiaobai, you won't fall asleep, will you?"

Bai Ming shook his hands, but didn't make a sound.

"Go, I'll take you to a place." Lu Wu was so excited that he stretched out his hand and pointed into the distance.

Going out at this time is a big problem, especially since his mother is still sleeping in the shop, and Bai Ming can't leave. He glanced at the main hall with the lights off, then at the locked shop door, raised his head, lowered his voice, helplessly Said: "Brother Tiger, I can't get out."

"It's simple." Lu Wu smiled triumphantly, flipped his legs, and jumped off the high wall, landing straight, but the movement was indeed a bit louder. After he landed, both of them were obviously startled. Stand in place like a sculpture, standing still.

After a few seconds, the two breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that no one had walked out of the room.

Bai Ming suddenly remembered something, and said, "By the way, I need to get something first."

After finishing speaking, he walked back to the side hall. The child's back was swaying under the moonlight. Lu Wu didn't think much about it, but just walked in together. He thought it was food or some kind of toy, just like he was in Baiming. At this age, I always hold a basketball in my hand.

He came to Bai Ming's bedroom, the furnishings could not be seen clearly in the room, there was only a pungent smell of medicine, he pinched his nose, fanned his hands, waved the smell away, and said softly, "Xiao Bai, are you sick?"

"No, these medicines are used to smoke mosquitoes." Bai Ming lied. In order not to make Lu Wu suspicious, he quickly took out the reward that Xiaopang gave him from his schoolbag, handed over the things in his palm, and moved topic.

Lu Wu took it, and the three flowers that came out of nowhere were placed in front of him like this. The flowers were more delicate and beautiful under the moonlight, just enough to touch his chin.

Bai Ming tried his best to put on a smile, and said in a warm voice: "Little Fatty won't go to school anymore, I want to spend more time with him, so today I went to the flower field with him to pick flowers all day, this is the reward he promised me, Three camellias."

The fragrance of the flowers covered up the smell of the medicine. Lu Wu lowered his head and smelled the flowers, and pondered for a while what he heard. The child's speech was so fast that he was a little confused.

"Can I take them with me?" Bai Ming pursed his lips, expecting an affirmative answer.

The petals swayed in the wind, Lu Wu smiled brightly, and replied: "Of course, I just said that there is something missing. It turned out to be flowers. The atmosphere tonight is better with flowers."

"Atmosphere?" Bai Ming asked in amazement, "Where is it?"

"You'll know when you get there." Lu Wu was still playing tricks. He dragged Bai Ming into the courtyard, squatted down facing the wall, and patted himself on the shoulder, "Step on it, and I'll take you out over the wall."

This is an extremely simple task for Lu Wu.From Bai Ming's point of view, it was fantastic.

"Let me hold the flower for you, or you will fall off easily." Lu Wu added.

Bai Ming was hesitant, and he handed the flowers to Lu Wu, hesitating in his heart, thinking for a while, and didn't dare to go up.

"Don't worry, I won't throw you, you trust me." Lu Wu took the flower and put it on the place for the time being, and after seeing that Bai Ming was indifferent, he cheered him on.

Brother Tiger's words have never been unreliable. He said he won't fall himself, so he definitely won't.

Although Bai Ming is timid, every time he listens to Lu Wu's encouragement, he can always regain his confidence.

He took a deep breath, supported Lu Wu's head with one hand, and stepped on his shoulders with both feet. As Lu Wu stood up slowly, his legs trembled slightly. After I stood up completely, he held up his hands, almost touching the top of the insurmountable wall in his heart.

"Don't look down..." Lu Wu comforted without thinking, "I'll jump up in a while, you have to hold on to the tiles on the top, okay?"

"Okay." He timidly replied, his eyes looked up to the sky as much as possible, his palms were sweating, and even his breathing became unsteady.

After listening to Lu Wu's countdown to three-two-one, he was like a small rocket, riding on his brother's shoulders, and suddenly flew into the sky. Stepping on the protruding wall, I stood firmly on it, with my upper body stretched out and my lower body still inside the wall, just like a clothes pole, just balanced on this high wall.

However, he had no choice but to look down. The alley outside the south wall was dark and deep. He had never felt that the wall was so high, so he closed his eyes tightly in fright, and only heard two swishing sounds beside him. Holding three camellias, like a gecko climbing a wall, it nimbly turned over while grabbing a brick.

Bai Ming opened his eyes again, and saw that Lu Wu was already standing in the alley. Brother Tiger raised his hands high and said to himself: "Turn over slowly with your feet, and I will catch you."

He first lifted his right foot slowly, and moved it outward at a slight speed. A hanging heart hung in the air like his body. After he succeeded, he tried to lift his left foot again.Finally, his legs crossed the top of the wall and he turned over successfully.

Lu Wu was extremely patient, neither urging nor shouting, and staring at him with all his attention.

At this moment, Bai Ming stepped on the ground with his left foot, slipped from the brick, and fell vertically. He was so frightened that he couldn't make a sound, and his hands couldn't hold anything due to the force of the fall, so he could only let gravity hold him down. Pull toward the ground.

He fell from the sky, but he didn't feel any pain.

With a plop, he fell down. After standing still for a while, he slowly opened his eyes and saw himself lying in Lu Wu's arms, his body was tightly hugged by Lu Wu's arms, and dust and smoke were everywhere around him. Even through the clothes, he could still feel the rising and falling warmth of Lu Wu's chest. When he raised his head, he saw Lu Wu's eyes closed tightly, with a slightly painful expression.

Lu Wu pretended to be arrogant and said: "Look, I said I would catch you, how about it? I didn't break my promise."

Bai Ming rolled down from the side, quickly helped Lu Wu up from the soil, and asked anxiously, "Brother Tiger, are you okay?"

"It's okay, let's go, let's set off quickly." Lu Wu wiped off the dust on his body, held the camellia in one hand, held Bai Ming's hand in the other, and rushed to the distance impatiently.

The bruises on Bai Ming's body made him in excruciating pain, but now he was climbing over the wall and running again. His bones seemed to be falling apart, but he didn't open his mouth. He saw that Lu Wu was so happy, so Not wanting to spoil Lu Wu's interest, he could only grit his teeth and run hard. Fortunately, Lu Wu couldn't see his expression in the dark, so he didn't have to let Lu Wu worry about him.

"Where are you taking me?" He gasped, puzzled.

Lu Wu smiled and said nothing, he took the child farther and farther, just like the child took him to the flower field that day, the moon hung high in the sky, illuminating the direction of their running path.

After a while, Bai Ming gradually heard the sound of gurgling water. He knew that it was the Baihe River, the mother river of the town.

The sound of the mighty water became louder and louder, and soon the two of them came to the river. The crystal clear river held the moonlight and washed away thousands of floating dust. thing.

The footsteps of the two did not stop. Lu Wu pulled him across the bridge and went up the mountain along the water flow. There were green trees in the mountains, and the river watered the fertile fields and nourished all things in the mountains.

Leaving the town and entering the forest for a long time, there is only the sound of rushing water. Although it is quiet, it is not pitch black. Because the moonlight is reflected in the Baihe River, Bai Ming can still vaguely see Lu Wu's blurred silhouette through the light.

Lu Wu slowed down, let go of the child's hand, and said softly: "Xiaobai, wait for me here for a while, I'll be right back."

But Bai Ming was not happy. If any monster really ran out of the deep mountains and old forests in the middle of the night, he would be scared to death. He grabbed Lu Wu's arm again, but held it tighter than before, and said cowardly: "Don't , Brother Tiger, Teacher Chang Peng said, the child who was lost before was taken away by wild wolves in this mountain."

Lu Wu laughed loudly after hearing this, and comforted him: "Wolves only live in the grasslands. How can there be wolves in this small mountain? What's more, it's so close to the town, even if there is, it won't dare to come. Don't forget, I'm a tiger, and wolves can't beat me."

After that, seeing that Bai Ming still refused to let go, he squeezed the child's warm little hand, and said, "Don't be afraid, I'm nearby, just give me ten seconds, and I'll be back in ten seconds, okay?" ?”

He patted Bai Ming's shoulder lightly, and his extremely gentle tone made the child let go of the fear in his heart.

"Ten seconds agreed, no more than one second." Bai Ming gradually let go of that arm, as if he had instilled all his trust in him in this sentence.

"When have I ever lied to you?" Lu Wu smiled lightly, and tapped the tip of the child's nose with the camellia in his hand, "Just put your mind at ease."

Bai Ming didn't reply anymore, he watched Lu Wu run into the depths of the woods alone, the secluded forest not close to the river valley was eerie and terrifying, before Lu Wu ran two steps, Bai Ming watched him being swallowed by the thick night and disappeared into himself vision.

The river beside him is rushing by, with splashes rushing to the bank from time to time, making a swishing sound. With the company of the mother river, Bai Ming does not feel so afraid. Maybe it is because he is used to relying on Brother Tiger, which makes him feel that there is no more. Lu Wu, the sky will fall.

He closed his eyes and started counting down and shouting.

"nineteen……"

The pleasant forest wind came from the depths of the mountain, wrapped in coolness, caressed his eyebrows, and healed the wounds on his body.

"Eight, seven..."

The green branches are swaying, and the verdant leaves use fragrance as bait. In the lush greenery, listen to his most crisp and tender voice quietly.

"Six, five..."

The moonlight plays with its bright and clean appearance, and cuts a bright path from the shadow of the whirling trees, dipping his pure white sleeves unscrupulously.

"four three……"

The water is shimmering, and the light is fleeting. It is the cloak of the goddess. This silver belt awakens the most dreamy imagination deep in his heart in an instant.

"Two, one."

He Feng, Fang Lin, Crescent Moon, Qing Shui, everything is by his side, he counted from ten to one, and slowly opened his eyes, but the surroundings were still dark, no different from the scene before his eyes were closed.

"Brother Tiger!" Bai Ming gently rubbed the corners of his eyes, the call passed through the forest, and sank into the distant mountains, but even so, he still didn't hear any response.

Everything is so secluded and quiet.

But he didn't panic, he believed in Lu Wu.

Bai Ming took a deep breath, and took a step forward. The soft soil under his feet showed the shape of his shoe soles. One step, two steps, he walked along the river, groping forward at a very slow speed towards the direction where Lu Wu was leaving.

He hadn't walked ten steps. At this moment, a few blue sparks were faintly lit up in the dark forest. That extremely weak light source became the most conspicuous sign in the night. Attracted, the footsteps unconsciously stepped towards the spark.

As he approached, those few sparks continued to scatter around, and some even penetrated into the branches, making the leaves sparkle. What surprised him even more was that the number of sparks gradually illuminated a whole tree from a few , he could even clearly see the direction of each tree pattern under the blue flame, and this big tree seemed to be the only sacred object in the forest that could be extinguished.

He took a closer look, and it turned out that the constantly moving sparks were actually fireflies, and every one of them was a firefly.

But how can there be fireflies this season?

The blue tail of the firefly slid across his shoulders, like a revolving ornate lamp, not only the tree in front of him, but he kept looking forward, backward, left, and right, and the bottom of every dark tree beside him began to glow. Shining brightly, a blue river floated into the sky like this, starting from the place where Bai Ming was standing, and quickly extending in all directions, igniting the most grand and vast night in this spring.

For a moment, thousands of fireflies hovered above, like an unforgettable lantern festival, adorned with little spring flowers in the hundred-mile-high forest.

The disordered fireflies are like frightened birds, freely shuttling through the forest. Although each firefly only emits a faint glow, the sheer number makes the streamer enough to illuminate the entire forest transparently.

Compared with this floating lantern that shines like stars, the moonlight and water light are not worth mentioning at this moment.

The scene in front of him was like a dream, extremely spectacular, Bai Ming's heartbeat seemed to be still, and his whole body seemed to be taken out of his soul, and he gradually regained consciousness after a long period of trance.

Clusters of sparks surrounded him, and fireflies flickered all over the sky under the forest. He stretched out his arm and touched one of the fireflies lightly with his fingertips, only to see it rising rapidly and disappearing among the lights.

This situation, this scene, is infatuated.

Bai Ming stopped and almost forgot to breathe.

Lu Wu came from a distance. In his hands, besides three camellias, he also had a bottle and a few rags. He walked through thousands of fireflies, smiling and cheering loudly.

"Xiaobai, happy birthday!"

It turned out that this magnificent and ethereal firefly event was a birthday present prepared by the teenager for the child.

The sudden surprise caught Bai Ming by surprise. He stood on tiptoe, with a smile on his face, and raised his hands high, as if holding the whole dream. This was the biggest and grandest gift he had ever received. Only then did he realize that his Brother Tiger always remembers his birthday.

There are three galaxies in this world, one is in the sky, it embraces tens of thousands of stars, it is dazzling, and it belongs to the boundless space.

One is beside me, carrying the white moonlight, flowing eastward into the sea, and it belongs to travelers along the way.

There is another one in front of you, which is wrapped in a fairyland on earth and hides overflowing affection. At this moment, it only belongs to two people, a happy teenager and a jubilant child.

Lu Wu trotted to Bai Ming's side, but when he approached, the smile on his face gradually turned into shock.

This is the first time he saw Bai Ming's face clearly tonight, bruises covered the child's supposedly delicate cheeks, the long scar on the neck stood out, even the little hands he used to hold were oozing with traces of blood .

Immediately, he lost all interest in enjoying the scenery, and Lu Wu's heart was almost broken. He grabbed Bai Ming's arm and said angrily, "Who did this?"

Bai Ming was obsessed with this illusory scene, and had already put this matter behind him, but now that the old matter was brought up again, he had to recall the nightmare experience again. Seeing Lu Wu's discoloration suddenly, he quickly withdrew his arm, and said in a low voice: "I, I fell."

"Don't be afraid, tell me, who did this?" Lu Wu's heart was broken into glass slag. Apart from his heartache, he only had irrational anger in his heart, and he gritted his teeth, "I won't send him to the hospital, I will No surname is Lu!"

"No, don't." Bai Ming shook his head vigorously. Now that Lu Wu finally returned to class and was not bullied by anyone, he didn't want Lu Wu to be imprisoned because of this.

"Good Xiaobai, can you tell me? Is it a classmate in your class? Or that chubby? I am your tiger brother, how can I just stand by and watch you being bullied and making you feel wronged?"

Lu Wu clenched his fists tightly, his arms were already bulging with blue veins, he was burning with anger, and his chest heaved violently.

"Yes, yes..." Bai Ming hesitated, he pursed his lips, but still told the truth, "It's my father."

Time seemed to stop, and Lu Wu was stunned.

Taking a deep breath, he couldn't imagine that a parent would beat his child so brutally. Although his father often beat him, he knew that Lu Jian was just trying to punish himself for being naughty on purpose. Tiao whipped a few times on the back, but the boy's father was obviously not like this.

Countless days and nights gradually emerged in his mind. When he was not by Bai Ming's side, this weak child was mercilessly beaten by a man on the ground. The dazzling image was like a needle piercing into the body, and the pain broke his heart.

"You are so sensible, how can he, how can he do it?"

Lu Wu touched Bai Ming's shoulders lightly, as if he was holding a fragile treasure. He didn't dare to use too much force to hurt Bai Ming again, "Does he often hit you for no reason?"

Bai Ming lowered his head and didn't speak.

This is the default, Lu Wu couldn't bear to think about it anymore, he waved away the image in his mind, rolled up his sleeves, and went to find Bai Tao to settle the score aggressively.

Seeing this, Bai Ming quickly grabbed his arm and almost shouted: "Brother Tiger, don't go, you can't beat him!"

He remembered what his father said at dinner, if the police dared to come over, his father would kill every one he saw. Although he didn't know the truth of this statement, he still didn't want Lu Wu to suffer unnecessary beatings.

But Lu Wu couldn't listen to this kind of pleading, he ignored the tugging behind him, buried his head and walked another two steps, until he heard Bai Ming groan in pain.

Lu Wu's strength was so great that Bai Ming, who couldn't move, pulled the wound on his arm. He was startled, and immediately turned his head, propped up Bai Ming's back, and said worriedly: "Did the wound be pulled? You hurt so badly." Ruthless, why do you still insist on climbing over the wall and running all the way with me?"

"Because I don't want to spoil Brother Tiger's interest..." Bai Ming held his cracked scar, and once the spring breeze passed, he raised a flowery smile, "Can we just pretend that this never happened? I want to continue Look at the fireflies, they are so beautiful, I don't want to go."

Every soft word was like a loaded machine gun, which fired violently at Lu Wu's heart. He was really sad.

Lu Wu swallowed the bitterness in his mouth, and held back for a long time before saying: "No, even if I don't go to him tonight, I will go tomorrow. If he is not at home tomorrow, I will go the day after tomorrow. I will definitely wait for him and teach him a lesson. He has a meal."

"My father just thinks I'm stupid. He doesn't mean anything malicious." Bai Ming said the ugly words again. He thought his father was right and he was a stupid child.

But which child would like to be called stupid?

After Lu Wu finished listening to him, his heart was full of sadness, and he waited for a long time before opening his mouth gradually.

"You are not stupid. You are the smartest in my heart. When I was your age, my grades were far behind yours. Don't you still study?

Besides, those are just a few arithmetic problems, what are they compared to your body?You are you, you are unique in this world, you are smart, you are wonderful, you know that? "

I don't know which sentence hit my heart.At this moment, the father's beatings, the pain on his body, the gifts all over the sky, and the sincere words, all complex emotions were mixed in Bai Ming's heart, trickling down his eyes, and then pouring out uncontrollably.

The silent crying made his body tremble slightly, and the tears dripped down, watering the fertile fields in this forest.

"You, don't cry, I've only beaten others to cry, and I've never comforted others not to cry." Lu Wu raised his hand, gently wiping the child's endless tears.

Bai Ming took a breath, hugged Lu Wu, and buried his crying face into his brother Tiger's arms. He opened his mouth and cried out.

The sudden hug caught Lu Wu off guard. He opened his arms and slowly closed them again. He patted Bai Ming's back with one hand and stroked the back of his head with the other. From time to time, he could touch several uneven scars with both hands.

Although the scar was not on his body, Lu Wu felt as if his heart was twisted, "Xiaobai, don't swallow your anger, and don't be afraid that I won't be able to beat him. I can call Lu Jian and the people at the police station to help you." , we will catch him and put him in prison, and we will always protect you, promise me, can you?"

That soft tone was more soothing than the southeast wind. Bai Ming seemed to imagine the day when he and his mother would no longer be beaten for no reason. He hugged Lu Wu tightly and said, "I promise you, Brother Tiger, but I The exam is coming up in two days. I don't want to delay it. Can you wait until the day after I finish the exam?

Also, just tell me about my dad, tell him not to beat me and mom anymore, you, you must never fight with him, I, I'm afraid. "

Lu Wu knew what he was worried about, and comforted him repeatedly: "Okay, okay, don't worry, I know you take this exam very important, then I will wait for you to finish the exam, and then go to your home and your father the next day Let's have a good chat, I won't hit him, but if he strikes first, I will call Lu Jian to help."

This affirmative answer made Bai Ming feel relieved, he smiled lightly, and nodded vigorously.

Lu Wu didn't want Bai Ming to think about this painful experience anymore, so he spread the broken steps in his hands on the grass, leaned back, and lay on it.

The ground along the river bed is always soft, he stretched his waist, then patted the empty space beside him, smiled and said: "Xiao Bai, it's better to lie down and enjoy the scenery, do you want to try it? "

After walking for a long time and crying for a long time, Bai Ming was also a little tired. Seeing Lu Wu facing up to the sky, he also lay down beside him, admiring the dancing fireflies shoulder to shoulder with him.

The night was quiet, except for the sound of the rushing river, there was only the breathing of the two of them. Bai Ming wiped away the tears on his face, and asked curiously, "Brother Tiger, have you been staying away from school for the past few days just to catch fireflies?"

"Of course, I caught it for three nights, and I didn't return to town until dawn each time..."

Lu Wu turned his head and looked at Bai Ming's side face, his pupils cut water, and the child's bright eyes reflected a little bit of fluorescence. In his heart, this half side face was more moving than the blue lights all over the sky, he asked cautiously said, "Do you like it?"

"I like it, I like it very much." Bai Ming grinned, two dimples embedded in his cheeks with the smile, he hoped that time could stop at will, and let all the good things freeze here.

The child's mouth-to-mouth demeanor was the most satisfying answer the boy received.

Bai Ming also turned his head, and happened to meet Lu Wu's eyes, the distance was so close that his heart trembled, he grabbed the grass with both hands, his eyes shifted immediately, and he said shyly: "Brother Tiger, don't fireflies only appear in summer? How did you catch them? How did you make them suddenly appear?"

Lu Wu picked up the empty bottle in his hand and stuffed three camellias into it.

"This is called spring firefly, they will appear after the sting, but the number is very small, and they usually only gather by the river, so I have caught them for a long time.

"As for the steps of catching, although it is laborious, it is very simple. First, catch a female insect. Generally, the light of female insects will be obviously dimmed, and then put it into a bottle. Other male insects want to make friends with it. Drill into the bottle one after another, so that the fireflies in a bottle are collected.

"I keep such an empty glass bottle under every tree. There are nearly a hundred bottles, and each bottle can hold about thirty. Cover the bottle with rags, I will take you into the woods, run quietly under the tree, put away the rags, and then open the bottle stoppers one by one, all the fire bugs flew out, and this happened.”

After such an explanation, Bai Ming suddenly realized that this magic-like illusion was carefully constructed in this way. He raised his head and began to count again, "One hundred bottles, thirty, so that is, that is... ..."

Lu Wu sighed, he began to worry about Bai Ming's arithmetic test, "Silly kid, three thousand."

"Three thousand?!" Bai Ming was stunned, startled, and then laughed sincerely, "Thank you Brother Tiger, you are so kind to me. I used to always want to leave here, because my mother said it was not good, so I I just want to study hard and take her out of here when I grow up, but now that Brother Tiger is here, to be honest, I suddenly don’t want to leave.”

Lu Wu listened to him quietly, and said nonchalantly, "Really? So I have such a great charm?"

Bai Ming pursed his lips and smiled, as if he was laughing at his cheeky remarks.

"If you can get out of here, where do you want to go?" Lu Wu's heart moved slightly, and he asked secretly.

Bai Ming didn't think about this issue. For a child who didn't have any concept of world view, he just wanted to leave, but he never thought about where he could go.

He sat up from the ground and held his chin in thought for a long time. The sound of splashing water interrupted his thoughts from time to time. He turned his head to look at the silver river not far away, and then turned back to look at the young man with his hands on his head. An ambiguous answer, "I don't know, I might leave the town along the White River, go all the way down the mountain, and then keep walking until the end of the White River."

After speaking, he lay down again, imitating Lu Wu, pillowing his hands and raising his legs. I have to say that this position is really comfortable.

"Walking for so long, be careful to wear out the soles of your feet..." Lu Wu teased, and then said seriously, "If you decide to leave, I will follow you, let's leave here together, and I will also go to see what grows at the end of Baihe River look."

Bai Ming couldn't stop laughing, he thought Lu Wu's words were just for fun, but in the young man's heart, these words were full of sincerity.

The water was rippling, and the blue light in the forest was a little dim. The camellia in the bottle above his head caught Bai Ming's attention. He turned over, lay down on the ground, stretched out his hand, hugged the bottle, took out the camellia, and handed it to Lu Wu.

"Brother Tiger, actually, I want to give this to your mother."

When the breeze blows, the gravel at the bottom of the tree is moved by two points.

Lu Wu was taken aback, his eyes widened. He suspected that he had misheard, so he repeated again: "Give it to my mother?"

Bai Ming answered "Yes", nodded and said, "I saw a photo in Brother Tiger's house, and that photo was surrounded by many flowers, including peach blossoms, pear blossoms, and even small wild flowers on the way to school. Guess your mother must be a person who likes beautiful flowers, you have collected so many flowers for her, but there is no camellia, so I want to give it to her."

Only then did Lu Wu come to his senses. His eyes turned around the petals and looked at Bai Ming's cheeks. An indescribable feeling surged in his heart. Since his mother passed away, he rarely felt such a feeling. He even once suspected that he was a Cold-blooded animals have lost this emotion.

This is the result of the child in front of him spending the whole day in exchange for it. His life is already dark enough, but he still wants to exchange a bouquet of flowers for a moment of light for himself.

This feeling is like the pulsing spring breeze in the southern sky, which wets the eye sockets with moisture, Lu Wu blinked quickly, turned his gaze elsewhere, and forcefully held back the tears he hated.

He took the flowers and said sincerely, "Thank you, Xiaobai."

Bai Ming thought of the woman in the photo on the mourning hall, that woman was good-looking, beautiful and moving, her eyes were smiling, she was gentle and amiable.

He looked at Lu Wu's face again, and said as if seeing the sky through the fog: "I finally know why Brother Tiger looks good when he smiles. It turns out that he inherited it from his mother."

Lu Wu's hand holding the flower was slightly dull, scratched his head embarrassingly, smiled blushingly, and said: "My mother is like you, she is a person who loves to laugh, if she sees you, she will definitely like you very much."

The young man's smile was not stretched, but a little sour. In a trance, he seemed to think of the soft light in his mother's eyes in the old days, which he never mentioned.

"Brother Tiger, can you tell me about your experience in Yangjing?"

Bai Ming's question pulled back his thoughts in an instant. All the fantasies born of nostalgia were like clouds and smoke. His eyes suddenly focused and were fixed on Bai Ming's eyes. Yang Jing's experience is the knot that binds his life. Say one more word, but the person who asked the question happened to be his Xiaobai, the second person in this world besides his mother who made him feel warm.

He sat up from the ground, put the precious camellia away, gently squeezed Bai Ming's cheek, and asked, "Do you want to know that much?"

"I think, brother tiger's mother must be a very good person, otherwise brother tiger would not be so kind to me. I like brother tiger, so I want to know more about it."

Bai Ming was lying on the ground, a firefly landed on the tip of his hair, and the green grass tip between the rags made him feel itchy, he raised his head suddenly, and the firefly flew up in an instant.

Lu Wu felt warm in his heart. Hearing the child's innocent tone, he pretended not to care, and said loudly: "Silly Xiaobai, that's not how you use the word like."

Unconvinced, Bai Ming also climbed up from the ground, propped his hands on the lawn, sat firmly, and said seriously: "Yes, I can like green forests, clean rivers, fireflies, and camellias. I can like Big Brother Tiger."

Listening to his argumentative tone, Lu Wu just smiled and told the past.

76. Yangjing

Yangjing, a historical ancient capital along the river, is also a big city today. Compared with Jiangzhou, it only has two-thirds of its total economic output, and it is not as prosperous and fashionable, but it has a heavy sense of history. , like a history book that records civilization from an ancient tomb full of gold, silver and jewels, showing its long-standing brilliance in the sand and gravel.

Lu Jian is an ordinary criminal policeman of the Yangjing Public Security Bureau. In the third year after he joined the police, he fell in love with a girl from the Normal University next door to the Public Security Bureau. He caught the eyes of all the single men in the police station.

After he inquired, he found out that the girl's name was Shao Wen, and she was a wealthy lady. Not to mention her family was rich, the colleges were lined up with suitors alone. The girl studied simultaneous interpretation and was an exchange student abroad. In those days, it would be quite remarkable to be able to go abroad once.

Shao Wen has a cheerful personality, generous and decent, lively but not noisy, and he likes Lu Jian in every aspect, but he also has self-knowledge. How can such a perfect girl look down on an ordinary boy like himself?

But this story is so old-fashioned that it seems that there are similar plots in every novel, but the rich lady, among the many suitors, immediately fell in love with the honest and honest policeman.

Just because when the Public Security Bureau coaxed Lu Jian to put flowers downstairs in the girls' dormitory as a signal, he said: "I don't want the pressure of public opinion to force her to accept. This can be regarded as indirectly depriving her of the right to refuse. It's not fair. I All I have to do is step up the patrol around the school and silently protect her, as long as I see her safe and sound, I will be satisfied."
