Chapter 142: State Secrets
Time is like water, time is like a shuttle, are all idioms that can be used to describe the inadvertent and quiet passage of time, and Jing Aiguo's feeling is particularly strong. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Jing Aiguo was the one who was accidentally rescued by Yang Fan, he didn't expect that when he opened his eyes again in the blink of an eye, more than forty years had passed, as if time had been stolen by someone.
It's a scary feeling.
"So really, more than 40 years have passed? The Cultural Revolution is really over. ”
Squatting on the ground and howling for a long time, it seemed that all the pain and sorrow in his heart were vented, Jing Aiguo wiped his red eyes and said blankly.
The Cultural Revolution is really a very terrible word, at least for Jing Aiguo, there are too many unbearable and sad pasts.
In the turmoil that almost swept the whole of China, he lost almost everything he had, his wife hanged, his children were separated, his friends committed suicide, and his colleagues betrayed.
His experience almost represented the situation of most intellectuals in that era, which was cruel and helpless.
But everything has finally passed, and finally the clouds are open and the moon is bright, Jing Aiguo wiped his eyes, and his mood was indescribably relaxed.
It's a pity that his friends and wife can't see all this anymore, thinking of this, Jing Aiguo has an inexplicable sadness, crying and laughing, and he doesn't know whether he is sad or happy.
"It's all over, it's all right, Professor Jing, mourning. ”
The middle-aged driver said, and he didn't know where to start with the words of comfort, and that era was almost the same as the story for him, and in the end he could only pat him on the shoulder to show comfort.
"I understand, thank you, comrade. ”
Jing Aiguo glanced at him gratefully, as if relieved, no matter what, all this is over, isn't it?
Jing Aiguo smiled slightly, it seemed that the good news that the Cultural Revolution had passed made his spirit a lot better, and the whole person looked different.
"Little comrade, did you save me? Can you go and see Lao Wang and them again? They are with me, thank you. ”
Jing Aiguo hadn't forgotten Lao Wang and them, and looked at Yang Fan and said urgently.
Yang Fan naturally understood who he was talking about, but he didn't dare to guarantee that he would save them at all, Jing Aiguo was an accident after all, shook his head and said: "Your situation is quite special, you have something to protect yourself, they don't have it, you shouldn't be able to save it." ”
Yang Fan's attitude is not bad, he doesn't have much respect for Jing Aiguo, but he still has sympathy, after all, he is not a hard-hearted person.
Yang Fan explained, Jing Aiguo looked at him suspiciously, then pulled out a red rope from the neckline, and said, "Are you talking about this thing?"
Under the red rope fell a piece of jade engraved with gossip symbols, Jing Aiguo held it in the palm of his hand and gently rubbed it a few times, and his expression became sad again.
"This is a relic left to me by my father, it is said to have been handed down from my ancestors, I originally planned to leave it to my grandson before I died, but unfortunately my son ......"
Jing Aiguo muttered, his expression was a little sad, and he seemed to have fallen into a not very good memory again.
Jing Aiguo didn't finish speaking, but the people present could probably guess what happened, it was nothing more than one of the tragic human tragedies that happened in that special era.
Jing Aiguo didn't want to say more, Yang Fan didn't dig deeper, and stopped him from taking the jade piece off his neck, Yang Fan directly probed it with his divine thoughts, but then he frowned tightly.
It's not that this jade piece can't be understood, but that he finds that this thing is about to fail.
This jade piece has a good texture, it is an extremely rare green chalcedony, and judging from the gossip symbols on one side, it is obviously a Taoist thing.
And inside the jade piece, there is a very peculiar energy, which should be this energy that protects Jing Aiguo from the erosion of soul insects, at least it plays a certain role.
Otherwise, Jing Aiguo should be like those people, he would have been dissipated a long time ago and became a soulless puppet-like existence.
But Jing Aiguo's situation is still not very good, although he looks sober now, like a normal person, but just like the candle flame in the wind, the only remaining bit of spiritual light will definitely not last long.
"Is there really no way? Xiao Liu, Xiao Tang, they are all still young...... If this thing is useful......"
Holding the jade piece in the palm of his hand, Jing Aiguo glanced at Xiao Liu Xiaotang over there, and then looked at Yang Fan and Lei Yin Zhenjun, he was not afraid of death, but Xiao Liu and Xiao Tang, they were only in their twenties.
Jing Aiguo looked very sad, if he could, he really wanted to exchange his life for them to survive.
But he also understood that this was impossible, so he could only look at Yang Fan and the others expectantly, still holding hope in his heart.
"Yang Zhenjun, why don't you try again?"
Lei Yin Zhenjun suddenly said as if he couldn't see it.
Yang Fan glanced at him, Chong Jing Aiguo still shook his head and said, "If you insist, you can see what happens to them first." ”
Yang Fan said, and after speaking, he grabbed the void with his big hand, and grabbed a few gray things from the people wearing the uniforms of the Japanese army.
And as he reached out and grabbed out the soul worms in their heads, he saw that the flesh and skin of these Japanese soldiers shrank at a speed visible to the naked eye, and in less than a moment, their bodies completely decayed and turned into dry bones.
Seeing this scene, Jing Aiguo seemed to be stunned, and then quickly hid his face and cried bitterly, at this time, he finally gave up the last hope in his heart, but if he wanted to accept all this, it made him so uncomfortable.
"Xiao Liu, Xiao Tang, Lao Wang. ”
Jing Aiguo whimpered and cried bitterly, tears flowed straight down as if the floodgates had been opened, Yang Fan looked at it coldly and said: "The deceased is gone, what's the use of crying, now you should be thinking about how to take their bodies out, you don't just want to leave them here." ”
Yang Fan didn't want to comfort him, he had seen too much about life and death, and he didn't care about it for a long time.
However, his words were very encouraging, Jing Aiguo cried for a while, quickly became stronger, and said seriously: "You are right, you can't leave them here, even if they die, I will take them home." ”
Jing Aiguo said firmly, and at this moment he seemed to be full of strength again.
If you want to leave Jing Aiguo, you will definitely not be able to do it, and there are several bodies that he can't take with him, Yang Fan simply does it to the end, and with a wave of his right hand, he received the bodies of Jing Aiguo's companions in his sleeve.
"How did you get here?"
After putting them all away, Yang Fan suddenly turned his head and asked.
Yang Fan's hand was really surprising, Jing Aiguo was stunned for a moment, and then looked at Yang Fan in a trance and said: "We are all members of the scientific expedition team sent by the state, as for the specific task and purpose, please forgive me for inconvenience, this is a state secret." ”
Although he was shocked, Jing Aiguo did not lose his mind and said apologetically to Yang Fan.
Yang Fan smiled indifferently, even if Jing Aiguo didn't say it, he actually knew their purpose, that is, Lei Yin Zhenjun and Emei Ancestor and the middle-aged driver, in fact, he could probably guess that what Jing Aiguo was unwilling to say to keep it secret, it was nothing more than returning to the ruins, or the so-called Xianshan Yingzhou of the Japanese people.
But since he chose to maintain the secret, a few people didn't bother to ask again, maybe people don't know as much as they do, so what's there to ask.
Yang Fan, Lei Yin Zhenjun, and Emei Ancestor didn't care, which made Jing Aiguo feel even more guilty, but as a member of the scientific expedition sent by the state, and he was the captain of this operation, he had the responsibility to protect state secrets, even after forty years, Jing Aiguo didn't think that he had a reason to casually disclose state secrets.
Even if they saved him, they were his saviors.
Jing Aiguo's expression was particularly firm.
