When the old lame man met Ma Liu and Xiaohu again, the old face with a smile was a little excited. Fortunately, when he came back, Ma Liu washed his face by the river and properly handled the clothes stained with blood. However, at this time, there was still a sense of blood all over his body.

"Murdered?" The old lame man seemed confident, not surprised at all, nor nervous.

Ma Liu's mood has long been restored to calmness. He often saw blood when fighting in groups in the past. After a long time of life, he became accustomed to it. Although it was the first time to kill someone, his heart was still pounding, but at least on the surface, Ma Liu was quite calm.

Nodded, Ma Liuyi changed his usual smirk and said, "Kill."

Without asking Xiaohu, the old lame man nodded and said, "Xiao Liu, do you know why I asked Xiaohu to kill someone?"

Ma Liu was stunned and looked at Xiaohu. The latter looked cautious and aggrieved, and there was a sense of stubbornness and guilt between his eyebrows. Ma Liu seemed to understand and said in a deep voice: "Do you want to force me into a dead end?"

The old lame man smiled and nodded: "When I was young, I went to the Northeast and climbed through the mountains. People in the mountains said that one pig, two bears and three tigers. In fact, this statement is inaccurate. Although wild boars rank first, it is not scary when a group of wild boars are together. They even often become prey of tigers or black blind people. But do you know why the pork chops are in front of them?"

Ma Liu's eyes lit up and said, "Because when the pig is chased and is really put in the order, he will fight to the death!"

"Not bad." The old lame man continued: "So if people in the mountains want to fight wild boars, it is best to meet a group of people. Just take a local dog to chase them. If you are alone, you can hunt them smoothly. But if you encounter a wild boar, don't fight with it easily. This beast is really fighting to the death, which is even more terrifying than a local dog. It is said that the dog jumps over the wall when it is anxious. The wild boar is forced to jump over the wall. If it is forced to jump over the wall, it will bite people. I once saw a young and strong hunter who is about the same as a little tiger. He is very competitive and meets a single wild boar. The wild boar is not too big, only about 300 pounds, but in the end the hunter died miserably and the scene is quite bloody."

Ma Liu said nothing.

The old lame man said again: "So I let Xiaohu cut off your retreat. I understand your personality. It's just a little bit of strength to push you. If you really kill someone, you can mostly be willing to go out. You have no way out now. You can only start over after you go to Shanghai. In that place in Shanghai, there are all heroes like Huang Jinrong and Du Yuesheng, mixed with dragons and snakes. There are many experts in the world. You should read more and learn more and endure everything. Don't let go if you have the chance. Shanghai is not as good as Shiyan, a small mountain city, and it is difficult for you to show your strength here. You must treat yourself as a wolf or a hungry wolf at any time. You must have the courage and determination like a wolf. You don't take action easily, but you will be fatal. Your Ma family is destined to be with me, so I also hope you can make your father and grandpa."

"Okay, I understand." Ma Liu nodded heavily.

The old lame man finally calmed down a little, and he smiled and said, "Xiao Liu, everyone says wealth is only three generations. To be honest, you should have more capital than the young masters in Beijing with their parents at the ministerial level. Unfortunately, your grandfather died early, your father was also indifferent to fame and fortune, and had a short life. But this may be a good thing for you. Suffering teaches people to grow up. There is a saying that I think you have heard of, if you can't be the descendant of the rich, then be the ancestor of the rich. Since you can't get the protection of your parents during your lifetime, you have to let your children be protected by you. I also want to tell you that it is not easy for us men to come to this world, and it is even more difficult to survive. It is said that heroes will come from troubled times, but now it is difficult to be heroes in this peaceful and prosperous era. Even if you can't be a hero, you will still become a traitor!"

Ma Liu was shocked, but he grinned: "I don't want to be a dog hero, I don't want to be a hero. Being a bear is too cowardly, being a hero is too hypocritical, I want to be a hero!"

Haha burst of laughter, the old lame man's face was a little distorted, and he clapped his hands and laughed: "Okay, what a hero for life!"

Maliu turned around and was about to leave. The old lame man took out a card and handed it to Maliu, and smiled and said, "This is the money you saved over the years. I didn't touch you. Maybe it's enough to use it in the past."

Shaking his head, Ma Liu smiled and turned around and walked out of the room. However, when he arrived at the door, Ma Liu stopped and did not turn around. He just called out a deep voice, and the old lame man was shocked.

When Ma Liu left, Xiaohu looked a little sad, and the old lame man on the side said, "Xiaohu, do you want to go with your brother?"

"Grandpa--" Xiaohu shouted, and after a long time of whisper, "I have been following my brother since I was eight years old. I have never left him."

The old lame man said with a serious expression: "Have you forgotten what I said to you? It's not the time for you to go out. Besides, your knife has been consecrated and blood is not far from the time you are unsheathed. If you don't want your brother to look down on you in the future, don't want your brother to drag your brother down, and don't want your brother to die early, then you should learn the tricks from me. My old bones are already half of my body in the coffin. What I say naturally makes sense."

After saying oh, Xiaohu started practicing boxing, and was extremely focused, but his eyes were red.

Maliu ran to the entrance of the alley, looked at the time, then shouted at Shiqi Hutong, turned around and ran to the side of the road, and took a generous ride for the first time, took a taxi and got off at Yutangwan Community, and then roasted a large handful of leek skewers at the door.

When he was exposed to the entrance of the community, he happened to meet the uncle who was foolish. Ma Liu smiled and greeted him, throwing a bag of Liqun that had not been opened on his body to him. This time he didn't chat with him and talk about jokes, but went straight back to the apartment.

When the door was opened, Xiaoyu and Qi Qingqing were both sitting in the living room, the TV was not turned on, and both women sat there with a dull look on their faces.

Ma Liu squeezed out a smile and handed the barbecue to Xiaoyu and Qi Qingqing, and said with a smile: "Why aren't you sleeping yet?"

"Waiting for you." Xiaoyu breathed a sigh of relief, but was worried.

"Eat." Ma Liu sat aside.

Xiaoyu shook his head: "I can't eat it."

Ma Liu was silent, but Qi Qingqing couldn't help it and suddenly shouted, "Ma Liu, where are the clothes you wore when you went out just now?"

Ma Liu smiled and said, "I went back to Shiqi Hutong and changed it."

"You haven't gone to work?" Qi Qingqing looked at the time and it was only less than 11 o'clock.

Ma Liu nodded and his smile gradually faded.

"Why?" Qi Qingqing frowned and said, "What are you doing tonight?"

Ma Liu still didn't say anything.

After returning to the room by himself, he packed up a few clothes. Ma Liu walked out with his bag. Xiaoyu's body shook, and there was a touch of deep sadness in his eyes, but it seemed as if he was expecting and did not ask why.

Xiaoyu lowered his head, Qi Qingqing sighed, looked at Ma Liu, but the latter did not move and stood in front of Xiaoyu.

After a long time, Xiaoyu raised his head, made a look of understanding, and said in a trembling voice: "It's serious?"

“The train is around twelve o’clock tonight.”

"Go to Shanghai?" Xiaoyu asked again.

Ma Liu nodded and said, "Xiaoyu, there is actually a saying that I have always wanted to say. I have been enduring it for more than two years, and I have to say it today."

"Don't say it." Xiaoyu hurriedly stood up and covered Ma Liu's mouth.

Ma Liu covered Xiaoyu's hand, kissed him hard, and took a long time to move away, and said slowly: "This journey has a slim future, so you don't have to wait for me anymore. I'm afraid I can't give you the future."

Xiaoyu shook his head and showed a happy smile: "Don't say that, don't worry, I said, I'll be your person in my life, I want to be your woman, no matter where you are, I will find you, but don't worry about me, I will take good care of myself, but after you pass by, you must be careful in everything and don't be impulsive anymore. If there is someone you like, just love it, even if you marry her, I won't blame you!"

Ma Liu closed his eyes and took a long breath. After opening his eyes for a long time, a trace of determination flashed in his eyes and said, "Okay, I'm leaving. If you have a suitable man, just marry. I've thought about it. Your parents are also doing it for your own good. The gap between us is really big!"

After saying this, Ma Liu turned around and left quickly, without taking the elevator, and ran out of the community directly along the stairs. Ma Liu shouted in his heart: "Little Fish, I will build a country for you!"

"Just leave like this?" Qi Qingqing sighed, with a deep sadness in her eyes. Even though she had never expressed her feelings for Ma Liu, she knew that in fact, her close friend knew that she knew it. However, when she saw Ma Liu parting, she always felt a little aggrieved and unwilling to see her.

Xiaoyu's smile was still hanging on his face. It took him a long time to come back to his senses and stared at Qi Qingqing in a daze and said, "He has left, but he can't get out of my world. I will definitely find him sooner or later."

Qi Qingqing didn't know how to comfort her best friend who looked gentle on the outside but was extremely strong on the inside. She pointed to the leek skewers on the table and squeezed out a smile and said, "Come on, let's eat while it's hot!"

Xiaoyu nodded fiercely, and then the two women began to swallow, but as they ate, both women cried.

Suddenly, Xiaoyu covered his mouth and rushed towards the toilet. Qi Qingqing was startled and followed.

The little fish retching for a while, and didn't spit out anything. She wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes into the mirror, showing a kind smile unique to her mother.

"Are you okay, Xiaoyu?" Qi Qingqing's face looked strange.

Xiaoyu turned his head, stared at Qi Qingqing, and smiled word by word: "Qingqing, I have a child, it's Maliu!"

"Ah?!" Although he was already a little suspicious, Qi Qingqing still screamed loudly.
