Suddenly Joshua became agitated.

He pursed his lips and looked ahead. He didn't know where the resentment came from or who it was aimed at until Jiang Xu said in a low voice, "don't you go?"

Joshua just reflected that this resentment was aimed at Jiang Xiu.

He didn't like the submissive Jiang Xiu, but he couldn't say why, so he had to start the car without saying a word.

Jiang Xu quietly held the car in his arms, looked out of the window and said nothing.

About half an hour later, the car stopped. It was a villa on the outskirts of the city. Joshua said, "here we are."

Jiang Xiu got out of the car. She looked up at the villa in front of her. It was ordinary and nothing special. After walking in, Jiang Xiu found that there was a Schisandra tree planted in the garden of the villa. At this time, the trees were full of red Schisandra. It looked like a string of small lanterns. It was very festive.

The woman in the white dress raised her hand and took off a string. The red fruit lining of her fingers was more white and slender, almost dead white. The woman turned around, her eyes were picturesque, and the pear blossom was gloomy.

It overlaps with Jiang Xu's childhood memory.

When she was very young, LAN Jinxi was like this. For so many years, she didn't seem to have any change. Time especially preferred her, as if her time had been fixed ten years ago.

Jiang Xu stood in the same place, a little shaking God, LAN Jin Xi way: "Jiang Jiang, see mom, not happy?"

Ginger whew back to God, she looked at LAN Jinxi, pulled out a cold smile: "I can't see you, just happy."

Lanjinxi sighed softly, with some helpless way: "you just can't understand it." She conveniently put the string of Schisandra on Joshua's hand, and then said to Jiang Xiu, "follow me."

Jiang Xu followed her in with the box.

The living room was decorated simply but delicately. LAN Jinxi asked her to sit down and poured her a cup of tea. The cool air of the air conditioner dispersed the heat outside. LAN Jinxi's voice was calm: "Jiang Jiang, let's talk openly. I can help you with what you want, but you know what I want, don't you?"

Jiang Xiu lowered his eyes and said for a long time, "what do you want me to do?"

LAN Jinxi stood up, put her finger on the back of the sofa and said, "demoneye is my life's hard work. It's like my second child. Although there are still many people who don't understand demoneye, Jiang Jiang, you have to know that what demoneye brings is never destruction, but rebirth." She looked at the black box beside Jiang Xiu and said, "you agree with that, don't you?"

"What about those who died?" Jiang Xu asked softly.

LAN Jinxi chuckled: "since ancient times, it has become a great event. How can it be without blood or death? It's a historical necessity, and I can't avoid it. "

Jiang Xiu bit her lower lip, and she didn't know whether she agreed or opposed. She said, "I always want to ask you a question."

LAN Jinxi said softly, "you say“

Jiang Xiu raised her eyes and said, "is my mother really you when I was young, or is this really you now?"

The smile on lanjinxi's face converged, and then said, "it's all me."

Jiang Xu laughed: "no, now this is the real you. What I knew about you in my childhood is just your disguise."

Mother and daughter looked at each other quietly. After a long time, LAN Jinxi said, "Jiang Jiang, I was born unknown. Before I knew the meaning of life and death, I had already killed my mother. When I was young, my father took me around. I saw the ugliness of human nature. They were like poison through the intestines, corroding everyone soundlessly, my father said, I want to learn to forgive them. They are stupid. They don't understand the meaning of righteousness. I always think so. Why should I bother with a group of stupid people? Until -- "

She closed her eyes, said: "until I won the medical ceremony, the scenery is no different, I became a lamb for sin, I know, in the eyes of my loved one, I am just a chess piece, a tool, he can not hesitate to abandon me, use me to build a bridge to the sky, even stepping on my bones, there is no guilt."

"In that short time, I witnessed the ugliest human nature. You can't imagine how I survived."

Jiang Xu wants to say something, but she can't say anything. The turning point of LAN Jinxi's life is when she is 20 years old. Whether it's from being a talented person to becoming a political prisoner, or being used and betrayed by her lover, or many disputes unknown to outsiders, it's enough to make anyone crazy.

Lanjinxi suddenly gave a very light smile and said: "but it's also beneficial. At that time, I finally understood what I was disgusted with all the time, that is human nature. I have been imagining that if I erase this thing, will the world be as clean as a piece of white paper?"

Jiang Xu said: "at that time, the world was just a puppet in your hand. What's the meaning of living?"

LAN Jinxi shook her head, did not continue to explain, but said: "you will understand."

She looked down at Jiang Xu and said, "Jiang Jiang, I've been waiting for you for so many years. My position will be yours, and it can only be yours." She is like a snake that bewitches Adam and Eve to eat the fruit of wisdom. Her voice is soft: "you and I are the same people. As long as you promise me, you are the successor of demoneye. You can see your dead lover, stay with him forever, and grow old with him. Isn't that what you want?"

"..." Jiang Xu's eyes trembled.

LAN Jinxi sat down beside her, took her hand and said, "Jiang Jiang, when you were still in my stomach, I thought about what kind of child you would be, whether you were more like me or more like Jiang responsible. You didn't live up to my expectations. You are more talented than me. I believe you will take demoneye to a higher and farther place."

"Demoneye is the salvation of mankind, not the killing. People are short-sighted and can only see the sacrifice, but ignore the discovery that can shock the world afterwards. You are my child, my blood and bone. Can you see it, right?" Her voice became softer: "you want to see the new life behind the blood and death, ginger."

Jiang Xu's fingers trembled: "Mom... I..."

LAN Jinxi hugged her in her arms and said in a soft voice, "darling, don't be afraid. I'm right beside you. You don't need to be afraid of anything."

Jiang Xu smelled a light smell of medicine, which was often found in her mother when she was young. Her tears suddenly fell down without any sign and wet her skirt.
