my old life

Chapter 667 Longyou Shallow Water
A small sticky note was written in beautiful italics. I couldn't even believe that the dumb man could write such beautiful characters, but what shocked me even more was the words written on it!
If I hadn't seen Aba writing with my own eyes, I would never have believed that he was a cheater, a cheater named Long Ze...

"My name is Long Ze, and I used to be an old trickster. Your tricks are not very clever to me. I can see through no surprises. My strength used to be far above yours."

When I saw this note, my heart skipped a beat. Although I knew this sentence was nonsense, I saw contempt in this sentence, an absolute attitude of contempt!

"I used to own a human skin mask. When I saw you for the first time, I noticed your appearance. I knew intuitively that you were a cheat, because you can't change your ears and nose with a human skin mask. .”

I read the words on the sticky note over and over again, and I couldn't believe that the obedient and dirty mute in front of me was once a cheater!

His age is at most less than 30 years old, and his cowardly eyes make him look even more immature, even like a person at the bottom of society, without confidence and dignity...

Before I could react, he handed me the second sticky note. Just now he had explained why he could see through my human skin mask and do tricks, but this sticky note surprised me even more!

"I know you won't let me go, and you won't give me the human skin mask, because you are different from others, I can see sharp knives in your eyes! Let me have a little time, the best At least it can bring me back a little sense of being a human being, thank you."

After reading the second note in my hand, I looked up at the mute again. At this moment, he really seemed to be a different person, with calm eyes without any emotion.

But I can see peace and serenity from his demeanor, as if he is enjoying the last time of his life, and also like a child with a favorite toy.

It's hard to imagine that the person in front of me is the dumb person just now, not to mention that I don't believe in such a transformation of a person, even if the second uncle comes, my jaw will drop in surprise!

I have seen all kinds of gamblers before, and I have seen all kinds of faces, but I swear that I have never seen such a big change in front of me. He actually gave me a sense of awe...

This is a feeling for no reason, I don't know if it's because the words on the note have affected me, or because his honesty makes me feel ashamed... But at this moment, I really feel that he has changed!
The mute sits on the sofa and lights a cigarette, with Erlang's legs up, as if wandering. The human skin mask on his face covers his appearance, but cannot cover his eyes.

What kind of eyes are these?It was as calm as a pool of stagnant water, as if he already knew what would happen to him next, and he knew clearly that I would not let him go...

From the moment I decided to go from Wucheng to Beichuncheng, I was aiming at the mute... From the time I showed him the human skin mask just now, it proved that I didn't intend to let him go.

When I brought him from Beichuncheng to Shencheng, I didn't see him on the way, which explained the problem. Subconsciously, I didn't intend to keep him alive.

But what really surprised me was that he saw through all my thoughts but didn't resist. From the moment he entered the door, he showed his survival instinct, but I didn't realize that I had exposed my flaws.

I only look at everything with my own eyes. From the beginning, I underestimated the dumb. From the beginning, I didn't take him seriously. This is my flaw and shortcoming.

If this person is a hidden enemy, if this person is someone who wants my life, then my arrogance will only cost me my life... The words of the second uncle who said countless times not to underestimate anyone were once again ignored by me .

It's just that I can't understand the fact that he used to be a cheater, let alone his so-called see-through.In a sense, I am like a piece of transparency in front of him, without any privacy at all...

"You said your name was Long Ze, let's not tell whether it's true or not, can you talk about your past?" I handed over the note again, but my attitude changed unconsciously.

The two people were originally absolutely unequal, but at this moment there is an astonishing equality. I can no longer pretend to be superior, and I can no longer wantonly control his power of life and death.

Because I deeply remember the principle of not underestimating anyone at any time, and I will never underestimate anyone from now on. The dumb taught me a deep lesson with two sticky notes!
He paused while holding the sticky note, and then began to write on it carefully. He couldn't speak but his fingers were very slender, and his bright eyes couldn't be covered by the dirt all over his body.

To be honest, I really doubt what he just wrote, but he showed too many things that surprised me, and even made me feel panic. I am afraid that even the second uncle has never seen such a person...

In the past, my second uncle used to say that there are all kinds of wonders in the world, that the same water and rice nourish all kinds of people, and that the true growth of a person is not related to age but to experience.

Different experiences can create different people. Some people have lived most of their lives without experiencing any danger, and their minds are blank. They only think of themselves as superior because of their age.

Although some people have not lived for a long time, they have experienced things that ordinary people cannot experience, so they can naturally have experiences that ordinary people cannot understand. The world they have seen will naturally be different.

The second uncle said that the more people grow up, the easier it is to be moved, and they will be moved by the details in life. At that time, I couldn't understand it, and felt that it was the same to look at ordinary things every day.

But now I just discovered the true meaning of this sentence, people are really easily moved not by the outside world but by themselves!I can always think of myself when I see everything, I am moved by my own past, and I am moved by those people and things that have passed away and never come back.

"Aba Aba, Aba." The mute handed over the written note. At this moment, I didn't know whether to continue to call him the mute or Long Ze. This was a subtle change.

I took a look at the note, and he only wrote two sentences to me, but these two sentences completely changed my view of him!
"Yesterday's tomorrow is today."

"Don't share your wisdom with anyone."

The short two sentences have no beginning and no end, and they seem to be warnings to me, as well as the principles of life, and more like the summed up motto of life.

I don't think I can hide anything from him. To be honest, I just wanted to ask about his eyes and how he could see my thoughts, but he gave me the best answer.

I don't believe that these two sentences can be written by a lower class of society. In the eyes of ordinary people, they are the most common nonsense, but they are full of truths that most people don't understand, the truth of being a person and doing things!
"I have to say that your two sentences are very incisive. I can understand your intentions, but can you write another sentence to define everything today?"

I respectfully handed over the note, but the thoughts in my heart were messed up. He didn't look me in the eyes, but just stared blankly at the note in his hand.

I wanted to figure out what he was thinking at this moment, but I couldn't think of any results. Can a person really reach the point where people can't guess?

Time passed slowly, and Huizi knocked on the door again and came in. I immediately made a gesture of silence and waved him to go back and rest.

Huizi shook her head, and gently closed the door, ajar. Through the crack of the door, I could see that he was still at the door. I knew he must be worried about the situation here.

To tell you the truth, I feel relieved a lot. When my second uncle said not to underestimate anyone, he also said that anyone you can't think of is the one who can kill you. The real evil is often hidden behind the innocent and kind!

The mute has been meditating all the time, as if he was trapped in his own thoughts. I took out a cigarette and handed it over. I didn't want to interrupt his thinking but just to let him relax.

But he didn't see the cigarette I handed over. At this moment, his meditation seemed to be summarizing his life, and I saw various expressions flashing across his eyes.

There is tenderness, nostalgia, pain, and reluctance...

My real intention was not to let him write the last sentence in his life, but just to let him write one more sentence, but I didn't expect this sentence to make him think for so long.

I know this sentence must be very important to me, because this is the most thorough summary of a person's life, no matter whether he was a cheater or not, at least he is a person of flesh and blood!

As the saying goes, beggars also have eight points of reading. After a long time in life, their experience will naturally change. Even a beggar can understand the warmth and coldness of human feelings after seeing many faces.

Suddenly he started to write, and simply wrote down a sentence. He was very excited when he took this note, but he couldn't be careless.

"Keep all kindness to yourself and never trust anyone."

I was completely dumbfounded when I saw this sentence!

I never thought that a sentence that my second uncle has been chanting for so many years, such a sentence that is difficult for normal people to understand, would be a dumb summary of life!
