Jungles in northern Myanmar.

Lan Wufeng was running wildly in the forest with a five or six semi-automatic rifle in his hand and the injured Qi Yue on his back. Behind him, several Burmese soldiers of the political axe army gave hot pursuit, and from time to time bullets whizzed past his head and side.

"Fengzi, you put me down, and I will cover you to break through." Qi Yue pleaded on Lan Wufeng's back.

"No, I can't leave you behind."

"However, if we continue like this, neither of us will be able to escape, and if we can survive, we will count as one, you can just go to Lao Song and join them."

Lan Wufeng didn't answer, he flashed behind a tree with an arrow step, turned around, raised his gun, and fired a shot at the pursuers behind him. A scream was heard in the distance, apparently a Burmese soldier who had been hit in some part. Several other Burmese soldiers babbled and fell to the ground, guns raised.

"One more was knocked down, and now there are only three left." Lan Wufeng said proudly, "Qi Yue, just look at it, they won't dare to chase after it for a while." ”

Qi Yue said: "No, although there are only three of them left now, the other Burmese soldiers will follow when they hear the gunshots, and we will be in trouble then." You let me go, I'll hold them back. ”

Lan Wufeng put away his gun, tightened his back on Qi Yue, and continued to run forward, replying as he ran, "I won't leave you." ”

"Fengzi, you can't run far with me on your back, you better let me go."

Lan Wufeng only felt that it was getting harder and harder to breathe, but he still said stubbornly: "Qi Yue, I can't leave you behind. You are a woman, I have already thrown down a woman, I can't throw another woman down. ”

"When is this, what are you talking about men and women!" Qi Yue scolded in annoyance, and she began to struggle, "Fengzi, I am the company commander of the Educated Youth Company, not a woman. I order you, as a company commander, to put me down at once. ”

Lan Wufeng clamped Qi Yue's calves with both hands, preventing her from slipping off his back, still running forward with his head down. Qi Yue slammed his fist on his shoulder a few times, and seeing that he didn't react, in a hurry, Suo opened his mouth and bit him the shoulder. Lan Wufeng was only wearing a single coat, and Qi Yue's bite made his shoulder hurt, but it lifted his spirit a little, and he ran faster.

"Will you let me go?" Qi Yue shouted.

"I won't let you go, as long as I have a breath." Lan Wufeng replied with a gasp.

"If you don't let me go, I'll bite and not let go." Qi Yue threatened. Seeing that Lan Wufeng didn't have the slightest intention of compromise, she opened her mouth fiercely and waited to bite down again. Just when her lips touched Lan Wufeng's shoulder, she only felt a wet and salty taste. She took a closer look and found that Lan Wufeng's head and body were covered with large drops of sweat, which already showed signs of serious physical overdraft.

"Fengzi, if you let go of me and run like this, you will be exhausted!"

"Even if I die of exhaustion, I can't leave a woman behind." Lan Wufeng gritted his teeth and said, "I've already made a mistake once, and I can't make it a second time." ”

"Fengzi, you're so stupid, I'm not your woman, you're not worth it." Qi Yue muttered, she didn't know whether to tell Lan Wufeng or to herself. Her nose was sour, and she felt like crying.

How long has it been since you cried? Qi Yue couldn't help but ask herself. When was the last time you cried? Was it when my father was twisted away by the Red Guards, when he left Yanjing and stepped on the train to Yunnan, or when he walked through the boundary monument alone and threw himself into this foreign land?

It's been almost 10 years, and she hasn't cried again. When one by one comrades-in-arms died in front of her, the other educated youths couldn't help crying. Only she told everyone in a plain tone: Dead things happen often, either heavier than Mount Tai or lighter than Hongmao, and this sacrifice is worth it and glorious.

Yes, the soldiers of the Educated Youth Company had never seen her crying, and everyone even ignored her surname, and no one would ever say that she was a woman. She also gradually forgot her surname, and she gave orders like a man, and spoke like a man. However, at this moment, this little boy named Fengzi gave up his life to protect her because she was a woman.

I don't know how long I ran again, but there was no sound behind me. Qi Yue glanced back and said to Lan Wufeng: "Fengzi, don't run, the Burmese army has already retreated." ”

Lan Wufeng slowed down, stumbled forward a few steps, and then stood on to a tree. He closed his eyes and took a few breaths before slowly letting go of his hand and putting Qi Yue down.

"Fengzi, are you okay?" Qi Yue asked with concern.

Lan Wufeng waved his hand and said, "It's okay, it's just that my shoulder hurts a little." ”

"You're hurt?" Qi Yue asked in surprise. Without waiting for Lan Wufeng to answer, she stepped forward, lifted Lan Wufeng's collar, and examined his shoulder. Seeing this, Qi Yue's face couldn't help but blush, it turned out that on Lan Wufeng's shoulder, there was no gunshot wound, only a few fine tooth marks, this was naturally Qi Yue's own masterpiece.

"I'm sorry, Fengzi, I ......"

"You're a dog? The mouth is so ruthless. Lan Wufeng said.

Qi Yue said proudly: "Yes, I am a dog. My 58-year-old, what about you? ”

"I'm '62." Lan Wufeng Road.

"You're so small, huh? It's my little brother. Qi Yue said, "However, thank you really for today's events, if it weren't for you, I wouldn't have died." ”

Lan Wufeng said: "This is all as it should be. Okay, it's getting late, let's rest here for the night, and let's go and meet Lao Song and them tomorrow. ”

The old Song he said was Song Qiyuan, the deputy company commander of the Educated Youth Company. This morning, when the Zhiqing Company was suddenly surrounded by a Burmese army ten times larger than himself, Qi Yue ordered Song Qiyuan to lead the large army to retreat first, and he took a few people to the palace, and agreed on the meeting place after their respective breakthroughs. Who knows, after completing the task of the palace, Qi Yue was shot in the leg, and thanks to Lan Wufeng's rescue, he escaped the pursuit of the Burmese army.

"Okay, let's rest here for the night and leave tomorrow." Qi Yue replied.

"By the way, how's your injury?" Lan Wufeng asked with concern.

Qi Yue said: "It's okay, I'll just bandage it myself." ”

The two of them hastily ate a little dry food, and then found a secluded place to sleep. At the beginning, the two also agreed to take turns to keep vigil to avoid being attacked by the Burmese army, and made dumplings. As a result, I don't know who didn't hold back the tiredness, and both of them fell asleep groggily.

In the middle of the night, Lan Wufeng was awakened by a soft moan, he subconsciously touched his side, and when he felt that five or six semi-automatic rifles were still there, his heart settled down a little. He stretched out his hand and touched Qi Yue, only to feel that the tentacle was hot, and he couldn't help but be taken aback.

"Qi Yue, wake up, what's wrong with you?" Lan Wufeng desperately pushed Qi Yue awake and asked her.

"It hurts." Qi Yue said weakly.

"What does it hurt?"

"Wounds." Qi Yue said, "It may be infected." ”

"Oops." Lan Wufeng patted his head. Before going to bed on the first day, he originally wanted to help Qi Yue treat his wounds, but firstly, he was too tired and his brain was not clear, and secondly, because Qi Yue's injuries were on his thighs, he felt a little evasive. Who knew that in the middle of the night, Qi Yue's wound actually began to infect.

In this tropical rainforest, the breeding of various bacteria is very rapid, and if the wound is not treated properly, Qi Yue may have to worry about his life.

"Qi Yue, your wound needs to be treated immediately, otherwise I'm afraid there will be trouble." Lan Wufeng said.

Qi Yue said: "Before going to bed, I bandaged it myself, but it didn't seem to work. Neither of us brought any medicine, so what should we do with this wilderness? ”

Lan Wufeng hesitated for a moment and said, "I do know a way, but you have to endure a little pain." ”

"Revolutionary soldiers, they are not afraid of bloodshed and sacrifice, what is the pain?" Qi Yue responded.

"And ......" Lan Wufeng didn't know what to say.

"What else?"

"Now there is no light, I can only touch your wound for you to treat, you won't mind, right?" Lan Wufeng said sneeringly.

Qi Yue laughed silently in the dark, she knew what Lan Wufeng was worried about. She pretended to be serious and reprimanded: "You little feudal brain, we are all revolutionary comrades, how can we have so many concerns." Besides, I'm your sister, four years older than you, would I mind if you're a little kid? ”

After that, she touched the black and took off her trousers, untied the wound she had bandaged during the day, and then took Lan Wufeng's hand and showed him the location of the wound. Lan Wufeng's hand touched Qi Yue's thigh, and the hearts of the two of them had some strange feelings for a while.

"Okay, the wound is here, what are you going to do with it?" Qi Yue asked in a low voice.

Lan Wufeng forcibly suppressed the surging complex in his heart, took out a bullet from the bullet bag, unscrewed the warhead, and sprinkled gunpowder on Qi Yue's wound. He then pulled out his lighter and lit the gunpowder. Seeing the firelight flashing, Qi Yue snorted in pain.

"What the hell are you doing?" Qi Yue complained quietly.

"It's a battlefield way of treating wounds, using gunpowder to burn the wound so that it doesn't get infected." Lan Wufeng explained.

Qi Yue thought for a while and said, "It seems to make some sense. Where did you learn it? ”

Lan Wufeng said, "Garrison's death squad, haven't you seen it?" ”

"Nope."

Lan Wufeng nodded: "Yes, this TV series was still released in 1980, you shouldn't have watched it." ”

Qi Yue put on his trousers again, and the two of them lay down again. After lying down for a while, Qi Yue asked in a low voice, "Fengzi, is it okay to ask you a question?" ”

"Yes." Lan Wufeng Road.

"Is your girlfriend, that goose, pretty?"

"It's pretty."

"Do you think she's really going to be waiting for you all the time?"

"Yes, she's a pretty stupid girl." Lan Wufeng said with emotion.

"You're stupid, too."

"Why?"

"Your geese are waiting for you, but you are willing to take risks for the sake of an irrelevant person like me. If the goose knew, what would she say? ”

Lan Wufeng thought for a moment and said, "If I sacrifice to protect you, the wild goose won't blame me." She is a very kind person. ”

"If I meet her, I'll say thank you to her." Qi Yue said, "Fengzi, do you know, growing so big, you are the second man who is willing to die for me." ”

"Who's the first? Is it our comrade-in-arms? ”

"No, he's a boy who lives in a big yard with me. His name is Chen Tian, five years older than me, and everyone calls him the prince. His parents are both high-ranking cadres, and they are away from home all year round, he grew up eating hundreds of family meals, and no one is afraid in the compound. Qi Yue reminisced leisurely.

"And then?"

"In 67, my father and the prince's parents were captured by the Red Guards, and my brother and I remained in the compound, along with the prince. Later, my brother was also sent down and went to northern Shaanxi, and it was the prince who has been taking care of me and protecting me. In '74, when I graduated from high school, several little hooligans in society stopped me on the road and tried to tease me. The prince beat away those hooligans alone, his martial arts were learned from the guard soldiers, and ordinary hooligans couldn't help him. However, that time, in order to protect me, he himself was stabbed and almost lost his life. ”

"And then?" Lan Wufeng was moved by Qi Yue's story, which was a story far from his life circle, but it was still able to tug at his heartstrings.

"After that, I was in Yunnan and assigned to a farm on the border. The farm instructor saw that I was young and pretty, and always bothered me. That day, he asked me to go alone in the woods to pick rubber, and then he came running to insult me. I feigned fear and pretended to promise him. He jerked off his pants, I swung the tapper, and ...... He will never be able to harm female intellectuals in the future. ”

"Well deserved!" Lan Wufeng praised.

"I cut the instructor, I knew that something was wrong, so I followed the path that those educated youths had said before, ran to Myanmar, and joined the Educated Youth Company. Because I had a family upbringing, I was good at shooting, and I knew how to command the military, so they elected me to be the company commander. ”

"It seems that the two of us are really similar in their experiences." Lan Wufeng said.

"The same is the end of the world, why should we have met before." Qi Yue said. She looked at Lan Wufeng, who was lying side by side with her in the dark, and stopped talking, "Fengzi ......"

"How?"

"I feel cold."

"You're having a fever, so you're going to feel cold." Lan Wufeng said, "It's terrible, our backpacks were all thrown away when we broke through, and I couldn't find anything to cover for you." ”

Qi Yue said softly: "Fengzi, if you are not so feudal, can you hug me?" ”

Lan Wufeng hesitated for a moment, then reached out, grabbed Qi Yue's shoulder, and hugged her into his arms. Qi Yue twisted her body slightly, as if she was struggling, as if she was trying to lie down more comfortably. Then, she snuggled into Lan Wufeng's solid embrace and fell asleep sweetly. In this exotic cold night, the two young people hugged each other like this, warming each other with their bodies.

A faint fragrance wafted into Lan Wufeng's nose, making him feel a little uneasy. He took a deep breath and looked up, looking at the sky above him. A ray of starlight projected through the shade of the tree, and Lan Wufeng seemed to see that it was An Yan's sad gaze.

Goose, I'm sorry...... Lan Wufeng said to his lover from afar stupidly.
