After Dawn Chapter 41: Good and evil (4)

"Yue Qingran, wake up, wake up, don't sleep." Su Luoming patted her cheek in a panic.

In a daze, Qing Ran opened her eyes again.

The appearance of Su Luoming in front of him has begun to blur.

She stretched out her hand, and the corners of her lips curled into a shallow smile: "So, there are still people worried about me..."

Su Luoming was so sad that he almost burst into tears.

She turned her head and looked at the sky full of stars, her eyes were faintly lonely: "Why haven't my parents come to pick me up..."

"Aren't you going to let Ranran..."

"Of course it's wrong, but it shouldn't kill people..."

She stared at the sky unblinkingly, tears slipping from her eyes.

Su Luoming grabbed her hand and said, "It's not that they don't want you, they just want you to be alive, so they won't come to pick you up."

"Really...really?" Looking at him with hopeful eyes, Su Luoming had a rare guilty conscience and nodded uncomfortably.

"It's great..." Qing Ran sighed, "When my parents come to pick me up, I'll be able to be with them again... forever and ever... not separate..."

"Don't sleep... Yue Qingran, don't sleep." Su Luoming called, his eyes were already red.

"I'm so sleepy, why don't you let me sleep..." Qing Ran asked suspiciously, squinting her eyelids down a little.

"You will never see your parents again when you sleep... Don't sleep well..." Su Luoming advised.

"I want to see my parents... I'm not going to sleep..." Qing Ran said, and tried her best to open her eyes again. She looked at Su Luo Ming, and there was a rare fragility in her eyes, "I'm cold, please hug me. Well..."

Su Luoming still remembers the feeling of holding Yue Qingran into his arms. He didn't have any love, and he didn't have any thoughts that shouldn't appear. It was purely a pity in his heart.

At that time, the woman in front of her was neither a famous prostitute in the south of the Yangtze River, nor a murderous witch, she was just a poor homeless person.

The man's warm embrace surrounded her from behind, and Qing Ran wanted to narrow her eyes again, but she was still strong.

"Come and talk to me..."

"Okay." The man's dull voice came from his ear, and the moist breath blew into his ear, making Qing Ran chuckle lightly.

"It's the first time for me to feel that being held by someone is a very warm thing..."

Although she wanted Su Luoming to accompany her to speak, in fact, most of the time, it was Qing Ran who was speaking, and Su Luoming occasionally responded to one or two monosyllable words.

Qing Ran doesn't care, she just wants to say something to maintain her sobriety.

"Let me tell you about the people I killed..."

"The first person I killed... was Master Xu... that was a pervert..."

"I'm a piece of shit... I just like to play with all kinds of toys on the bed... Every time I'm tortured by him, it's better to die... Several times... I didn't recover... I almost died... "

"I barely had any effort when I killed him..." Qing Ran laughed softly, "I tied him to the bed and directly covered his mouth with the quilt... He barely struggled. dead..."

"I cut his stuff...and stabbed it in from underneath...don't he like torturing women..."

"I'll make him a woman..."

If it were normal times, if Su Luoming heard such cruel killing methods with his own ears, Su Luoming might feel chills all over his body, but now his chest is full of heartache.

He thought about what kind of torture he would have to endure to make a girl who had been pampered and raised since childhood so ruthlessly determined to kill people, and calmly carry out a series of follow-up operations.

When he was forced by his master to kill for the first time, he spit it out on the spot, and then had nightmares for three days in a row.

"The second person I killed... was Miss Jiang."

"Jiang Yuanwai's son-in-law selected by martial arts is a murderous fugitive... After marrying Miss Jiang, he robbed the Jiang family's property..."

"He raped the daughter born by Miss Jiang...Miss Jiang reported to the official...No one believed her..."

"She begged me..."

Su Luoming closed his eyes, as if a ball of cotton soaked in water was blocked in his heart.

"I gave her five walks and she went down to the meal while she was cooking..."

"I don't think the whole family was poisoned. Only the man vomited because he drank too much... escaped..."

"Cough cough... I bought the man's concubine and introduced him to a woman with willow disease..."

……

The morning star was dark and bright, a white line appeared on the horizon, and Qing Ran's voice gradually returned to nothingness.

Su Luoming was startled, but found that she just didn't speak, her eyes staring blankly at the place where the sky gradually lit up.

Then the corners of his mouth are slowly pulled apart.

"I saw my parents..."

"Mother still holds a little brother in her hand..."

"They came to pick me up..."

Her outstretched hand drooped weakly, and her darkened eyes closed contentedly.

A gust of wind blew, and the weak bonfire went out, and a chill blew into Su Luoming's heart.

He held Qingran in his arms, and finally a tear fell on her.

……

"Here!"

"Come here, I found someone."

The cheers and footsteps sounded together, and the man in black sitting on the ground seemed to be unaware.

His back was straight, but he lowered his head slightly, looking at the woman in his arms.

The woman in his arms raised a small arc at the corners of her lips, her brows and eyes were soft, as if she was having a beautiful dream.

"Brother Luo Ming." Yue Qiangwei stood not far from him, looking at the expression on his face, she suddenly felt that it was a sin to disturb her.

She pursed her lips, waved this thought away, and asked, "Sister Qingran, what happened to her? Is she injured?"

Su Luoming stood up holding Yue Qingran expressionlessly.

Chen Yuhua walked ahead with Yue Qiangwei in her arms, surrounded by officers and soldiers with knives. Yue Qiangwei took a step and turned back three times. The man in black who was at the back had a stern face. Only when she looked at the woman in her arms from time to time, she could see a trace of pity in her eyes.

……

Yue Qingran was buried in Mingyue Villa.

Su Luoming sat in front of her grave for three days and three nights without a drop of water entering.

On the third night, there was a muffled sound in the sky, thunder and lightning interspersed, and after a while, heavy rain poured down.

A woman in blue walked in with an umbrella and a lantern.

"Brother Luo Ming, it's raining so hard, go back."

Moon Rose's skirt was wet by the rain, and her embroidered shoes were too dirty. Standing in the wind and rain, her figure was swaying, and her appearance was lovely.

Su Luoming didn't even give her his eyes.

His eyes were always on the small pile of tombs in front of him.

The tomb of his beloved wife Yue Qingran.

This is an inscription carved by his own hands.

He suddenly remembered what his father had said to him before he died.

"Luo Ming, the person I'm most sorry for in my life is Brother Yue."

"When his whole family was killed, I was out hunting a prisoner. When I came back, his eldest daughter didn't know where she was going."

"I vowed to find out who harmed his whole family, but now I have clues, but I don't dare to investigate further, and I don't have the ability to investigate further."

"You remember that you and the Yue family's Qing Ran had a baby kiss since childhood. If you can meet her, you must treat her well..."

He lived up to his father's expectations.

He didn't take good care of the woman who left this world in his arms.

He reached out and touched the tombstone, slowly tracing the writing on it with his fingertips.

He suddenly remembered the scene on the Mirror Lake, where the woman in red looked far away, her ink hair flying behind her. He forgot to mention that at that time, he was also amazed for a moment.

Because that woman is so beautiful that she is not like a mortal.

She is not a demon, but a fairy.

Fall into the world, and then fleetingly.

……

"Luo Ming, are you planning to sue the imperial court?"

Chen Yuhua hurried over.

Moon Rose is also full of anxiety.

"Brother Luo Ming, it's been ten years since things have passed, so why bother?"

"Those people now have their own families, and they repent sincerely. If you do this now, if they are punished for this, then their wives and children will not be the same as me back then, then what you did How are things different from what they did back then?"

"Brother Luo Ming, I really didn't expect you to be such a person, clinging to the past."

"People must have a heart of compassion. Confucius also once said, repaying grievances with virtue, we must learn to forgive others."

Su Luoming, who had always ignored her words, finally reacted.

He calmly took out a book from the shelf and threw it into Yue Qiangwei's arms.

"The Analects of Confucius Xianwen, or: 'How to repay grievances with virtue?' The Master said: 'Why repay virtue with direct remorse, and repay virtue with virtue.'"

……

Yue Qiangwei's words did not persuade Su Luoming, but Chen Yuhua's words made him change his mind.

"Luo Ming, do you know who really killed the Yue family back then?"

"If it's really the people you and I have investigated, I certainly won't stop you."

"But when you they are just a bunch of unknown people, how can they be able to destroy the huge Mingyue Villa overnight?"

"Although Mingyue Villa is famous for benevolence and benevolence, there are many people who live in the villa with strong martial arts."

Su Luoming closed his eyes and clenched his fists on his side.

Chen Yuhua's voice was a little dry.

"The real messenger behind it is my father."

"Who?!" The door was pushed open, and Yue Qiangwei stood outside the door with tears on her face.

"Rose, why are you outside?" Chen Yuhua shook his hand unnaturally under his long sleeves.

"I heard it all," she choked.

"I'm sorry...I..."

"No, don't be sorry, it's not your fault." Yue Qiangwei fell into his arms and hugged him tightly, "You are by my side, you must be afraid that I will hate you when I find out the truth?" /

"I won't hate you, it's not your fault, it's your father's fault, you don't have to take this responsibility..."

"Rose, thank you for your kindness."

"You should have told me sooner..."

Looking at the two lovingly embraced, Su Luoming narrowed his eyes.

Suddenly nauseated *.
