On July 1, 2023, Li Qingzhi was released from prison.
He performed well in prison, and Huang Xiang helped him apply for a reduction in sentence many times, but eventually came out after only eight years in prison.
After being released from prison, Li Qingzhi lived a bad life.He is already out of touch with this society, and what people say, do, and even the unchanged street scenery make him feel quite strange.
Standing at the vast intersection, I sighed with a sigh.
The Correctional Bureau arranged a job in a restaurant for him, saying that he was a chef, but in fact he was a dishwasher.
In the dark back alley, Li Qingzhi squatted, looking down at a pot of foam in a daze, as if yesterday's clean and beautiful hands were still signing hundreds of millions of business documents, and today they were going to wash pots and pans in the filth of the leftovers.
He even met his assistant who had been back for many years.The little assistant back then had already set up his own business and became the big boss of an investment company.
Deputy Li... Senior brother!
Li Qingzhi just wanted to escape, but was grabbed by the little assistant.
Senior brother, why don’t you tell me if you are released from prison?With your talent, why do you have to wash dishes here?In this way, our company is short of people, you can come here... Alas...
Li Qingzhi played his hand away and disappeared at the end of the alley.
On the other hand, Huang Xiang prepared a welcome banquet for him.Eight years have passed, but Huang Xiang still looks like that, with thick braids and no hair loss even bothered her.
My aunt in a wheelchair also came here specially and touched Li Qingzhi's vicissitudes of face.
But he was only forty years old, but he was already covered in dust and frosty hair. He was wearing thick blue clothes, with a small flat head, and wrinkles on the corners of his eyes, but his waist was still straight, retaining his last self-esteem.
As the saying goes, forty, you are not confused.Azhi, do you still have those doubts?asked by my aunt.
Li Qingzhi shook his head silently. There is really nothing worth confusing about in his current life.
He lowered his eyes, and his dark eyes had no emotion, which made Huang Xiang very worried. She was afraid that her cousin's tragedy would happen again, so she proposed to find a job for him, but was rejected.
Surprisingly, Li Qingzhi proposed to pay homage to Zhang Jun and Zhang’s father.
I know that I am not qualified and have no face to burn incense to you.Li Qingzhi lit them all a stick of incense, I knew I was guilty, and I would bear the bad reputation of a sinner for the rest of my life.
A color called guilt climbed up to his face, and his eyes finally fluctuated.
He confessed every day and night in prison, thinking that his irrationality killed others, which made his brother and nephew die. These are all retributions he deserves.
He has been following the rules in prison, so that he has not burned incense to his brother and nephew, has never seen them for the last time, and has never stood in front of the dead to repent.
Now, he has no entrusted anything.The glorious years of bright light have become a bubble, and even the last family has not been kept, he is determined to die.
The next day, he bought a bundle of thick and large ropes at the hardware store. The store also boasted that his rope was of good quality and could carry a thousand pounds of heavy objects.
It doesn't take a thousand pounds.Li Qingzhi said in a low voice.
Then he met his brother and nephew for the last time. He wanted to say a lot, but he couldn't say anything when he was right, leaving only intermittent crying.
He raised his arm to his forehead, not knowing how long he had cried, soaked his entire arm's clothes.
He did not want to stay in the world forever, so he planned to find a tree on the cemetery mountain to hang it.
Unexpectedly, he turned around and met a man named Liang Yuan.Liang Yuan has grown up and has become a gentle, polite, handsome master's student. Today, I will come to pay homage to my old friend.
Are you... Gou Sheng'er's second uncle?Zhi...Uncle Zhi?
Li Qingzhi scratched his head and asked: You are that Hua Chen’s friend.
yes.Liang Yuan took out a small windmill and a book "Five Years College Entrance Examination Three Years Simulation" and handed it to Li Qingrui and Li Huachen.
If you are determined, you will often come to see Hua Chen and the others.
Liang Yuan said: Who made me owe him money? I will never pay it back in my life.He caught a glimpse of the undried tears on Li Qingzhi's face and the wet arms, and then he knew it, and asked again: Why did Uncle Zhi... how did he come?the bus?
Yes.
Then I'll send Uncle Zhi back.
No need, I haven't finished worshiping yet.
Liang Yuan pulled up his sleeves and advised him to go back, "I can't finish praying today, but I'll pay homage tomorrow, it's the same."
I...I don't...why are you... Li Qingzhi had to accept his old age. He couldn't pull the young Liang Yuan at all, and he was dragged down the mountain all the way.
Come on, I'll send you back.
Li Qingzhi wanted to get angry, but when he saw Liang Yuan's car, he was stunned.
It was an old second-hand small semi-trailer with various missing children's information printed on the body. Several flags were erected on the rear carriage, and the flags were also filled with missing children's information.
Uncle, you are laughing.This is a used car I bought and used as a truck from the association.
Li Qingzhi recalled Liang Yuan's life experience and asked: Have you...n't you found your parents yet?
Liang Yuan turned his face slightly, looked at the depressed man in front of him carefully, and said: No, there has been no news for many years.Later I joined the J City Family Search Association, which contained many parents and children who were missing orphans.While I went to school, I helped everyone find relatives, hoping to help me accumulate luck or something.
He took out a cigarette, and after being rejected by Li Qingzhi, he sucked it himself.
The two men leaned against the rear of the car, each with their own thoughts.
It's hard for you for so many years.Li Qingzhi looked at the big boy with a cheerful smile in front of him, and suddenly felt that if Hua Chen was still alive, he would probably be the same as him.
Liang Yuan also said: If my parents are healthy, I will also be on the way to find other things.As for people, when they are alive, they are either looking for this or that.After searching and searching, I realized that my life was over.
Li Qingzhi thought a lot and hesitated for a while before saying: But I have nothing to look for.
Liang Yuan gave a caring look and invited Li Qingzhi with a warm voice. You can join us, just like Uncle Rui was looking for a child before, helping his parents find his children, and helping him find his parents.
I……
Uncle, don’t dislike us.Although it is a public welfare organization, there are five insurances and one fund and weekends.Liang Yuan tried to pull Li Qingzhi and spoke very vigorously.
Suddenly a strong wind blew up, breaking a flag on the carriage.
Alas, my flag!Liang Feng had to stop, ran to pick up the broken flag, jumped into the carriage, looked left and right, and couldn't find anything that could repair the flag.
Li Qingzhi looked at Liang Yuan in a hurry and looked up at the faces of the strange and tender children. Under the bright sun, the breeze was coming and the shadows were intertwined. It was the wind that guided him and the little brother guided him.
Forget it, go back and do it again.
Liang Yuan was about to give up, but a hand holding a rope suddenly appeared in front of him.
Use mine.
Liang Yuan was surprised and sad. In an instant, the complex emotions settled in his eyes. He sighed without moving and took the thick rope.
Thank you, Uncle Zhi, I will send you my salary back.
I won't go...
Alas, don't be polite to younger generations.Liang Yuan said and pulled Li Qingzhi into the car and started his journey home.
The second-hand car was shaking continuously. Li Qingzhi looked at the back of the chair and looked at the back of the green mountain trees and the winding dirt road outside the window. He heard the sound of Liang Yuan's nagging and the whistling flag behind the carriage fluttering in the wind.
Uncle, have you had a meal?I'll treat my uncle to dinner.
Uncle, where do you live?It’s better to live in our association, where there is an empty room and you don’t have to pay the rent. How great it is.
uncle?
Li Qingzhi seemed to have shed his heavy defense and shackles, feeling relaxed like never before. A hazy greenness gradually left in front of him, and then fell asleep.
At that moment, he returned to his mother's womb, to the purest moment, and to the initial beginning of his life.
But this time, there was no one around him, he was the only one. He started again and started his life that belonged to him again.
