He Chenxue took Tang Shuxing into his tent, dug out a few old Shangdu newspapers and old leaflets, and handed them to Tang Shuxing.
Tang Shuxing looked at the headline of the old newspaper and it said that Xia Jiezhu was shot to death. The word "traitor" was written in big red letters on Xia Jiezhu's photo. It said that Xia Jiezhu tried to launch a coup and was under house arrest.
The Master of Creation, Reinhardtsch, failed and also massacred many Shantou believers. He committed a heinous crime and was shot on the day of arrest.
The flyer next to it also had a photo of Xia Jiezhu after he was shot, and it said, "Don't become a traitor. If you are a traitor, then this will be your fate."
Tang Shuxing took these things and sat down. He Chenxue didn't say anything and walked away first, leaving him alone to be quiet.
Xia Jiezhu was shot to death by Shang Du in the name of rebellion, which Tang Shuxing did not want to believe. Because in his eyes, Xia Jiezhu was an absolutely loyal person to Shang Du, and she would not be able to rebel against anyone who rebelled against her. After all, she
They are a very small number of people who grew up in Shangdu underground, were brainwashed very thoroughly, and are among the very outstanding people in the Shangdu Defense Force.
But everything in the photo is true. It is impossible for Reinhardt to deliberately get rid of Xia Jiezhu to lure him into Shangdu's revenge. Reinhardt knew that he would not be so impulsive, so this news should be true.
,Xia Jiezhu was really killed by them,
At the same time, Xia Jiezhu's former Intelligence Bureau and his subordinates must have been purged. By the way, where are Gu Huaiyi and Ji Kefeng? Tang Shuxing opened the tent cloth and asked He Chenxue standing at the door: "Where are Gu Huaiyi and Ji Kefeng?"
Also, how did you leave Shangdu?"
Xia Jiezhu sat down and turned his back to Tang Shuxing: "The news was overwhelming before. Don't you know? Where have you been? The two of them went to participate in the peace negotiations in The Hague. There is no news yet. Xia Jie
After the Zhuyi sect was suppressed, there was no news mentioning them. There were also rumors saying that they had a relationship with Xia
Jiezhu is a group. There are also rumors that they were killed by Xia Jiezhu’s people. I don’t know what happened. As for your second question, how did I escape? This question, I
I thought you would ask me this question when you saw me, but who knew, it was six hours later that you asked me this question."
Tang Shuxing stood there and said, "Originally I didn't want to ask."
"That's right. When you found out that your wife Xia Jiezhu died, you were in a bad mood. When you decided to find other things to distract yourself, you finally thought about why I left Shangdu." He
Tears were rolling in Chenxue's eyes.
Tang Shuxing squatted beside He Chenxue: "I didn't ask you, because I thought something must have disappointed or saddened you when you left Shangdu, so I didn't want to expose your scars." He Chenxue suddenly turned his head at this time.
Looking at Tang Shuxing, he asked: "Your wife is dead, aren't you sad?"
Tang Shuxing looked at He Chenxue, and nodded after a long time: "Sad. Although she and I are in name only, she is always my wife, and the whole world knows it. I can't describe the feeling I have for her. It's very strange.
I didn’t feel anything at first, but suddenly one day, I discovered that she was really my wife. I don’t know how to describe it to you, but...that’s it.”
He Chenxue shook his head: "Tang Shuxing, you are much more cold-blooded than you were seven years ago. Seven years ago, even if you couldn't cry, your eye circles would be red, but what about now? Look at you now. There are
Mirror, look at yourself in the mirror, you see an expressionless face, it looks like you don't care about anything."
"Oh." Tang Shuxing replied blankly.
"You'd better plan when to set out to rescue that person. The sooner the better." He Chenxue stood up, "After the rescue, you won't owe me anymore. We will be clear and go our separate ways from now on."...
Tang Shuxing said nothing, but asked: "What is the best weapon here?"
"You want to storm Deputy No. 24 Prison? Impossible, that is a fortress." He Chenxue shook his head and said, "But when it comes to heavy weapons, we do have them in the woods over there. If you want to see them,
Just go and see it.”
Tang Shuxing looked at a jungle in the distance, but the so-called jungle here was full of dead trees, and most of the plants were dead. It was a miracle that these people were still alive. Tang Shuxing whistled and asked Bai Zhanqiu to follow him.
He went to the jungle to check and signaled Jin Cheng and Qi Jiamei to guard the two wings of the ruined town, observing and alerting that the National Defense Force would launch a sneak attack in retaliation for what happened in the morning.
Arriving deep in the jungle, among a pile of dead trees, the two discovered a so-called "tank", but in fact it was not a tank at all. It just had the base of a tank with a large copper barrel welded to it.
There are two recoilless cannons, a machine gun, and some rocket launchers and the like placed behind it.
"Is this a heavy weapon!?" Tang Shuxing looked at the strange-looking thing, "This thing will be destroyed instantly."
"Not necessarily. Basically, it can last for a few minutes." Bai Zhanqiu pointed to the base of the tank and said, "This is the base of an old tank. The American Pershing during World War II was the M26 heavy tank. I just checked. The engine
It’s done using an excavator. Although it’s a clumsy method, it’s feasible.”
Bai Zhanqiu looked at Tang Shuxing, and Tang Shuxing looked at the assembled goods: "By the way, I have to tell you something. Maybe we..."
"No," Bai Zhanqiu interrupted, "I don't have any objections, even if I die, I don't have any objections. I don't know what to do, so whatever you say is whatever you say."
"What?" Tang Shuxing looked at Bai Zhanqiu.
Bai Zhanqiu shook his head: "As long as I didn't say anything, you just know that I will execute the order. I will check the goods to see if there is anything wrong. Call that Jin Cheng here for me. I need his help.
"
Tang Shuxing nodded, turned around and climbed up a tree, called Jin Cheng and asked him to come over, while he went to take Jin Cheng's place.
Arriving at the simple wooden pagoda where Jin Cheng stayed before, He Chenxue also followed, but as if Tang Shuxing was like air, he sat there minding his own business and said, "I'm leaving Shangdu."
It's because I'm tired of it."
Tang Shuxing didn't say anything, just looked ahead.
"I thought that after living in Shangdu for so many years, nothing would change. In the end, nothing changed. I was still the idealized version of myself. I forced myself to join the Shangdu religion. I really became a believer, but I couldn't listen to what they said.
Those teachings and nonsense scriptures, I really hate those things, but the people around me are pretending to hate them. They are too hypocritical, I can't stand it, I want to leave, so
I sneaked away." Xia Jiezhu looked into the distance and said, "Gu Huaiyi can't help, and Ji Kefeng can't help either. They are just lackeys. They also have to protect themselves, but I am different. I would rather
I don’t want to eat or drink, and I want to go home, but my home is gone, so I want to resist, I want to come out, I wake up those people and ask them to rise up and resist, I’m done, that’s it, goodbye.”
He Chenxue stood up, turned around and walked towards the back of the ruined town, not knowing what to do.
He Chenxue walked for a long time before Tang Shuxing turned around and looked at her lonely back, not knowing what to say. In fact, when He Chenxue said those words before, Tang Shuxing was really
He could understand her thoughts, but he couldn't say it out loud. He now wanted to send He Chenxue away to the October Revolution Island. If possible, he wanted to send everyone here away.
But he couldn't say it, because what he said was a promise, just like what he taught He Chenxue, if you can't do it, don't say it.
Tang Shuxing sat there until dusk fell, and He Chenxue's people came to replace them. At this time, a bonfire was lit in the town under the ruins, and everyone started to make a fire to cook.
Tang Shuxing did not approach, but brought dry food to sit and eat with Qi Jiamei.
He Chenxue came forward at this time, holding a roasted black thing and handed it to him: "Do you want to eat it? Roasted mice are meat, very delicious and very precious. It's hard to find mice now."
"
Tang Shuxing shook his head, pointed to the two bonfires in the distance and said, "You are looking for death, do you understand?"
"I know that if you light a fire at night, you will definitely be dead. You will be a target, but..." He Chenxue took a bite of roasted rat meat. "Even if we don't light a fire, they still know our exact location. They have drones.
Helicopters, fighter jets, everything. But we are just a bunch of things that are worse than mice. They will not waste ammunition on us unless we take the initiative to attack."
Qi Jiamei looked at He Chenxue and said, "How pitiful."
He Chenxue shook his head: "You don't know what pity is. If others pity us, it's not pity. That's what we show for others to see. The real pity is when you pity yourself and you feel pity for yourself.
, that’s what is truly pitiful.”
Tang Shuxing looked at He Chenxue, who shook his head at Qi Jiamei who looked calm, turned around and left.
Qi Jiamei looked at He Chenxue's back: "This woman is very strong."
"Yes, she is very strong." Tang Shuxing nodded, "But she still hasn't grown up. Seven years have passed. In fact, she is almost the same as she was seven years ago, at least in my eyes."
"She likes you." Qi Jiamei added, "I really like you. I can see that she still likes you after seven years. What did you do to her? You are very capable of letting a woman remember you for seven years.
."
"It's just fighting side by side." Tang Shuxing shook his head, "You will remember me in this life, right? Because we also fought side by side."
Qi Jia smiled charmingly and said: "Yes, but the kind of memory is different. Remembering your comrades and remembering your lover are two different things. These two kinds of people will live in different memory areas in the brain."
Tang Shuxing shook his head: "No, there are no partitions in my brain, there is only one memory area."
Qi Jiamei looked at Tang Shuxing. Tang Shuxing took a sip of water and said: "Both the dead and the living are all in the same partition. I don't want everyone to still be separated by yin and yang in their memory. Let's rest. We'll see you again tomorrow."
There are other tasks, which may be simple or complex."
Qi Jiamei was silent, sitting there thinking about Tang Shuxing's previous words, and felt very sad for some reason. This sadness suddenly replaced the confusion she had felt for a long time.
