After a pause, he almost gritted his teeth and said to him: "—he is my brother!"

"You actually..."

To have such dirty thoughts!

Damn it!

Ears buzzing.

Liu Xu tried his best to shake off the heavy dizziness, he couldn't fall down, although he didn't believe that Ji Heng had the guts to kill himself, but if he fell, what would Ji Heng and the others do if they went to find someone?

he must...

The sense of restraint on his body suddenly lightened for a moment, like the illusion he felt under severe pain.

Immediately afterwards, something fell from Ji Heng's body.

Pointed and sharp, with bursts of silver light.

……knife? !

Ji Heng actually brought a knife!

The viciousness suddenly became fierce, and Liu Xu was pinched by Ji Heng's neck, and he moved towards the sharp knife little by little.

Out of the corner of his eye, Ye Jue seemed to have noticed his movement, and rushed over in shock: "The knife—!"

late!

With a murderous aura, Liu Xu exhausted all his strength and slashed at Ji Heng heavily.

The next second, whether it was an illusion or not, the expressionless boy looked down at him, his eyes full of indifference that gave up restraint.

His heart beat suddenly, he squinted his eyes at Ji Heng, and turned over as if he was seriously injured.

But one second before Ye Jue rushed over, he pinched his wrist tightly with his palm like steel pliers, and with his explosive strength, inserted the silver knife into his chest and abdomen hard!

"vomit--!"

There was a sharp scream.

Blood spurted out of Liu Xu's mouth immediately, his eyes were about to burst, and he looked at the boy who suddenly pulled out the knife in horror.

Blood splattered.

The boy's face was bright red, his pale face was thick with blood, and his pair of unwavering black eyes looked at the dead man.

How dare he...

How dare you kill him...!

His breathing gradually weakened, and Liu Xu's gaze became distracted. In the last line of sight, Ye Jue was pounced on Ji Heng with a frightened expression on his face.

……

"elder brother!"

Ye Jue's pupils were trembling, his hands were trembling, and his legs were so weak that he almost fell to his knees.

He looked at Liu Xu who was lying in a pool of blood: "...he, he died?"

Ji Heng was short of breath, and the turbulent and howling cold wind outside the window was turbid. In the distance, he saw several beams of lights piercing the darkness.

Turning his head again, Ye Jue had pulled out two rolls of quilts from the closet, and covered Liu Xu's body with fear and fear.

Walking forward quickly, he grabbed Ji Heng's hand, his whole body seemed to be fished out of the water, his sweat-soaked hair hung down in front of his eyes, and tears flowed unconsciously.

"Brother," he said, "...I, I am under 14 years old, I am not considered a criminal, I killed Liu, Liu Xu, you run away!"

Ji Heng was startled, the exhaustion after the fight spread all over his body.

He sat on the cold concrete floor, with a smile on his pale face, and raised his hand to touch Ye Jue's face.

With just such a slight movement, the tear moles at the end of Ye Jue's eyes were stained with blood.

The beautiful and clean young man was dazed, and grabbed his hand with his backhand, his tears were like broken beads, the tears stained the blood on the mole, and half of his face was flushed red.

"Brother," Ye Jue cried tremblingly, wanting to hide in his arms like when he was a child, "I...I don't know what to do, can we run, run away now?"

He wiped away the tears at the end of his eyes.

It's been a long time since Ji Heng hugged him, but today it's rare to caress his back tenderly and comfort him gently.

"It's too late." His voice was very soft, as if he was afraid of scaring Ye Jue, so he said softly, "I'm leaving."

Ye Jue was startled, and reflexively climbed to the window, and asked in panic, "Have the police come?"

Outside the window was an endless expanse of whiteness.

The huge blizzard made a crack in the sky, and the white curtain flooded everything.

The turbulent wind blew away the last trace of mourning from Liu Xu's mouth.

Dapan Mountain is covered with silver, like a snow mountain falling from the sky.

Ye Jue saw a few dazzling lights from the cloudy sky, heading straight for the village.

"Police!" Ye Jue's eyes darkened, and he immediately grabbed Ji Heng's hand, "I...I'm going to surrender! Brother, you go!"

He nearly tripped himself in panic.

Ji Heng reached out to support him in time, still held him in his arms, and patted his back lightly.

Like treating his beloved brother since childhood, he didn't meet Ye Jue's eyes, but whispered in his ear: "After I leave, tell old man Ji."

"He didn't sell me, that little thing can't buy me."

"……elder brother?"

Finally, realizing that the walk Ji Heng said was different from what he understood, Ye Jue was uneasy for a while, clutching his neck firmly, and asked anxiously, "Brother, where are you going? Can't I go together?"

"Go outside the mountain."

Didn't lie to him, Ji Heng answered his words in a gentle voice: "Don't be afraid, I'll be fine."

Trying to push away his hug and take a look at him again, Ye Jue suddenly thought of something, gritted his teeth and suppressed his sobs: "...Brother, can you not leave yet, you agreed to accompany me to see grandparents tomorrow."

Ji Heng paused, and a sad aura suddenly emerged from his body.

Ye Jue didn't understand, but subconsciously felt uneasy.

"Ye Jue," Ji Heng hugged him tightly, his voice was a little tense, but he tried his best not to let him hear something strange: "Do you still remember what Teacher Wang said to us when the fourth grade teacher left?"

"No matter where you are, I will look at you just like Grandpa Ye and Grandma Ye."

Teacher Wong.

Ye Jue's favorite English teacher.

She is a college student who voluntarily aids the mountainous area for one year. At the end of the one-year period, she did not show up at the farewell party, but just wrote a sentence on the blackboard.

——Parting is for a better reunion.

At that time, Ye Jue was crying miserably. On the way home, Ji Heng carried him on his back, allowing him to smear his tears and snot on his clothes.

It was also a winter, the new moon in the middle of winter.

He fell asleep on Ji Heng's back.

At that time, Xiao Jiheng stepped on the frozen puddle, fearing that his movements would wake him up too much, so he walked a 10-minute journey for 10 minutes.

Also not considered tall, Ji Heng, who was still a child, ran into Grandpa Ye at the door of Ye's house.

The kind old man looked at him, remained silent for a long time, stroked his hair, and said, "Xiao Ji, please bring your brother back."

That was the first time someone from the Ye family told him that Ye Jue was his younger brother.

Little Brother Ji Heng seemed to nod his head, "Yeah."

On the way back to his home, he couldn't help pinching his palms happily.

Although there was not much fluctuation on the surface, I was thinking happily in my heart.

——The wish of the nine-year-old is that his younger brother can grow up safely.

No matter where he is, Ye Jue is the younger brother he made a wish to protect when he was very young.

……

……

Those were two extremely chaotic days in Ye Jue's memory.

On Friday night, Ji Heng hugged him and knocked on the door of Ji's house.

The burly man in black clothes and pants all over the room looked at them, lowered his head and called, "Master."

Frightened, Ye Jue saw several men going to Ye's house.

He was so worried that he wanted to stop them, but Ji Heng patted his back and whispered soothingly, "It's okay."

One night of being overly frightened, he finally fell asleep in Ji Heng's arms.

There were still mottled bloodstains and tears on his face, Mr. Ji almost fainted from fright, after asking what happened, he smoked a cigarette silently, his eyes flushed with anger.

Early the next morning, when Ye Jue woke up from his sleep, what he saw was Ji Heng who was about to leave by car.

Ji Heng became very silent.

It wasn't until I saw him that I smiled a little.

It was a foregone conclusion that he couldn't say anything.

But under the watchful eyes of many men in black, he stubbornly took out the PHS from his pocket, and asked Ji Heng: "...Brother, can I... can I still call you in the future?"

Ji Heng wiped away the tears on his face, nodded his head: "Yes."

"...Then, can we still meet? Can I go play with you?"

"We will meet again," Ji Heng wiped away his tears patiently, took his hand, and said in a low voice, "but you may not recognize me."

"impossible!"

Ye Jue gritted his teeth and held back tears: "I will definitely recognize it!"

When Ji Heng finally got into the car, he was still crying until he was in the dark.

Ji Heng got out of the car and coaxed him for a long time, finally, under the urging of the man in black beside him, he pursed his lips, gently stroked the clean tear mole at the end of his eyes with his fingers, and sat in the car with downcast eyes.

That was the last time they met.

It was also the first time Ji Heng lied to him.

It turns out that there is a signal, a number, and a purposeful call, but it will also fail.

He spent a day in a daze, and the next day, accompanied by Grandpa Ji, he went to the hospital to visit his grandparents.

I didn't see my grandfather, and there was no sign of my grandmother in the whole hospital.

The world was spinning, and a sister nurse gave him two candies, as if she was afraid that he would cry, so she comforted him softly: "We'll talk about it when Mom and Dad come, okay?"

That afternoon, he saw his long-lost parents.

I also saw an unfamiliar brother and sister.

The nurse sister who didn't say a word to him told them that grandpa had passed away due to an incurable leg infection.

On the night of grandpa's death, grandma, who had a heart attack, left right after her.

This couple, who have been loving and harmonious all their lives, must accompany each other even after they die.

Two huge blows in tandem.

Ye Jue's young body couldn't hold on, and he was admitted to the hospital that night, with a fever that reached [-] degrees.

In a daze, he cried silently.

Tears flowed into pieces, covering most of his face.

The parents in front of the hospital bed worriedly wiped their tears for him, and their eyes were also red.

After a long time, he felt a lightness in his body.

It seemed to be hugged by someone.

His brother, who was seven years older than him, looked down at him, patted him on the back and coaxed him softly, while his sister handed him candies and called him "brother" in a childish voice.

He felt the belated father's love, mother's love, and brother-sister friendship.

But the three people who once held up the sky for him also left him one day after another.

In that long, distant time.

The tall and slender figure who beat the bad guys away for him, used his thin shoulders to block everything for him in the dark night without parents and relatives.

In the end, he just gave him an empty promise, and disappeared completely in the depths of the turbid midwinter of Dapan Mountain.

The grandparents who gave him countless loves also died in the ground this winter.

In the end, he followed his parents to a big city as he wished, and was admitted by a high school in the capital with his outstanding liberal arts grades. For some reason, this high school with a long history was lenient to him.

Here, he spent two years of loneliness and silence.

Finally, the fall of 2002.

The economy of the southeast cities is soaring again, and a new wave of going to sea has been set off.

After discussing for a long time, father and mother decided to take them to live in the south.

There, they found a new high school for Ye Jue.
