From salmon sashimi to stir-fried and fried, there are dozens of different dishes made with cream, cabbage, salmon, salmon roe, and sea urchin. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoVancouver's Salmon Festival is a foodie empire.

Qi Rui, who was fortunate enough to participate in the salmon festival, wore civilian clothes and ate a little at each stall with the guards. Because of the mode of taking a shallow taste, Qi Rui's steps are light. And the guards didn't resist the temptation, and walked with a shy stomach. Out of the corner of Qi Rui's eyes, he saw that the guard secretly loosened his belt twice.

Qi Rui didn't see it, this kind of thing is usually changed if you don't fight. If you don't change it, then it's better to continue doing it next time. The experience of growing up in life is the process of constantly doing stupid things that you can't even believe, and then moving forward in shame. If the person concerned thinks that he has done a good job, it is useless for others to say anything.

The guards were attracted by the food, while Qi Rui enjoyed the feeling brought by ordinary life. Although he still feels that he has an invisible barrier from such a bustling world, this layer of separation is finally thinning, at least it can make Qi Rui feel easier. Walking down the street with non-military people, the feeling of being separated from the world has dissipated.

"Crackling! Cracking sound! "Bang! Boom! There was a rush and a dull explosion.

Qi Rui's first reaction was to immediately find a hidden place to lie down, but the guards nervously blocked in front of Qi Rui, trying their best to judge the source of the sound in the shortest possible time. These two have been in the headquarters for a long time, and although their reactions are sharp, they can be regarded as the reactions of the headquarters. About one-tenth of the people in civilian clothes were already prostrate on the streets, and three-tenths of the people in civilian clothes were hiding behind trees, behind houses, and behind stalls where they could hide immediately. Naturally, four out of ten people have ugly faces. In addition to them, three out of ten people were also very nervous, and their faces looked like they had come down from the battlefield.

The sound of firecrackers and fireworks continued to be set off not too far away, and some retired soldiers who felt that they had lost face shouted angrily, "This is not a New Year's holiday, what kind of cannons!" At the same time, he went to the place where the culprits were. Qi Rui felt very funny at first, and even showed a smile on his face. But the sound of the explosives made him react. Even if it wasn't the brain's reaction, the intense nervousness, excitement, and fear that were memorized by the body when he walked through the flames of war, as well as the urge to try to get rid of these strong negative emotions and fight to the death, all made Qi Rui feel very painful.

Even after learning a lot of hypotheses about brain neuronal connections from his father, Qi Rui believes that these are neuronal connections formed under the impact of strong electrical signals. Even believing that these are nothing more than 'analogues' of the human brain. Even knowing that something is not really in danger, but something similar to an 'illusion'. Qi Rui couldn't deny that he felt intense pain.

Won't you be able to get used to life with firecrackers in the future? Qi Rui was a little worried. In Qi Rui's memories, his father Wei Ze was not interested in firecrackers. However, Qi Rui couldn't judge whether his father Wei Ze had left too many scars on the battlefield, or if he just didn't like this kind of noisy excitement.

It didn't go far before the sound of firecrackers and fireworks came to an abrupt halt. Although he wanted to turn his head to see if those angry veterans had made a difference, Qi Rui finally resisted the impulse. He is an active major general, so don't get involved in these things.

Vancouver is known for its salmon and wines from vineyards on the slopes of the Rocky Mountains. In the hands of the Chinese, there is land that cannot be fertile because of lack of water, but there is no land with abundant water and barren land. The lands used by the Chinese in the Rocky Mountains have rapidly increased their fertility with the help of earthworms, and those mountainous lands have produced excellent grapes. The wine produced is very delicious, and even people like Qi Rui, who are not keen on drinking, think it is very good.

After eating and drinking, Qi Rui got on the train. In the past, you had to take a boat to get from Vancouver to Portland, but now the railroad from Vancouver to Portland is open, and you can get on the train and sleep all night to get there. When the train entered Portland and stopped in the morning, the staff saw that Qi Rui, who was still in civilian clothes yesterday, had changed into a military uniform. Such a change is not surprising, everyone knows that most Chinese in North America have served in the military. It is not surprising that the epaulettes of major generals are not surprising, and hundreds of generals are active in North America. However, such a young major general is really rare. For a while, the attendants on the train even wondered if Qi Rui's epaulettes were fake.

Qi Rui has long known that identity is actually easy to cause trouble, so he especially agrees with the political ideals of his father Wei Ze. To build a society where everyone is equal, everyone only has the difference in work, but not the level of status. In such a world, Qi Rui no longer has to worry about getting into trouble because he is Wei Ze's son, and others will not think that he is Wei Ze's son and look at him differently. The reason for changing into a military uniform is not that Qi Rui wants to show off, but that he wants to enter and exit the military area, and active soldiers must wear military uniforms.

After entering the military academy in Portland, Qi Rui finally recalled the experience here. The once lively military academy compound seemed quite deserted at this time, and Qi Rui was not surprised at all when he thought of the strong desire of the current soldiers to return to a peaceful life. The left-behind personnel of the military academy still remembered Qi Rui, and after shaking hands cordially, they took Qi Rui back to his original office. Entering the door, Qi Rui found that there was no change in the slightest except for the thick dust.

"Director Qi, after you and your comrades went south, there was no one left here. We are the only ones left here. I wondered if you could give us a report and make a decision on whether we would stay or not. I spend time here every day, and I feel panicked in my heart. The staff babbled. Everyone is young, and the staff couldn't help but say what was in their hearts, "I haven't learned anything from guarding here for the past two years." If I had been asked to retire at that time, I would have planted for two years now, and I would have earned at least tens of thousands of dollars. ”

Such a realistic conversation made Qi Rui couldn't help but nod slightly, he agreed with such an attitude. I have to do everything with all my might, and I can't go up to the world and hang in the air, and I don't feel anything other than uncomfortable. Just agree to agree, Qi Rui didn't speak. He enjoys the feeling of being silent these days. Looking back, Qi Rui only felt that he was a vehicle running wildly on the track, jolting forward on the rules set by others. The invisible armor of silence isolated him from the world around him, allowing Qi Rui to calmly make the choices he liked.

Seeing that Qi Rui was silent, the staff didn't dare to say too much, and the class gap between the two sides was so big that Qi Rui could ignore the staff. handed over the key to Qi Rui, and the staff left first. Qi Rui silently began to take out the things in the house and start to clean up, Qi Rui didn't need books or anything, he decided to leave it to the school to deal with. The documents and records were taken with Qi Rui when he went south before. The rest are official documents and correspondence.

took the iron bucket, Qi Rui opened these letters and tore them off and lit them. In the past, Qi Rui felt that there were some things that needed to be kept, but now he felt that he should not keep anything. If you can remember, you will naturally be remembered in your mind, and if you can't remember, you don't want to remember at all. Such a calm handling made the guards feel a little puzzled, and the guards who were a few years younger than Qi Rui couldn't understand Qi Rui's views on these. Such a ruthless treatment even made the guards feel that Qi Rui was too ruthless. The beacon fire lasted day after day, and the family letter was worth 10,000 gold. Even if they hadn't heard the poem, the guards felt that the letters that held too many memories were so precious. He couldn't have burned it so indifferently.

When he saw Chu Xue's letter, Qi Rui finally stopped. He didn't know if he should open it again for a while, and in the past year, he felt as if he hadn't remembered Chu Xuelai. But thinking about it again, Qi Rui actually didn't recall other relatives. When the purpose of sleeping is only to maintain the minimum needs of the body, and everything in life is only to achieve victory in the war, and memories do nothing to achieve this goal.

He would refuse to read Chu Xue's letter one day, and Qi Rui didn't know what was going on for a while. But the whole person just looked at the letter in his hand coldly, if it wasn't for the conscious control, Qi Rui's body would probably be torn and burned like other letters. So Qi Rui put the letter in the import briefcase to avoid such a thing.

Finally showed the human side, and this move unexpectedly won the favor of the guards. In the end, Qi Rui left the office in Portland with only a few things, and when he left here, Qi Rui recorded a sentence in his notebook, "If you have the opportunity, you will determine whether the Portland Military Academy will continue to be retained." Even if he didn't agree to the staff's request, Qi Rui still felt that it was better to care about this matter. After the war, there is really no need for the army to delay everyone's time.

Qi Rui did not return to Vancouver, but bought a ticket back to Asia after reporting to the local military department in Portland. Before leaving, send a telegram to the country. It is one of the obligations of soldiers to let the country know the whereabouts of the major general. If even your own generals are left without knowing where to go, it will be a disgrace to the army.

Nowadays, there are more and more passenger ships between North America and Asia, and the ships are getting bigger and bigger. The direct result was that the first-class cabin was very comfortable, and when the ship left the port, Qi Rui himself boarded the empty high-rise platform and took out the letter sent by Chu Xue from his arms. Seeing Chu Xue's familiar handwriting, Qi Rui felt that his blood couldn't help but start to flow faster. This feeling is very familiar, when it comes to things related to Chu Xue before, Qi Rui will have such a reaction. But unlike before, Qi Rui's mental state is very calm. No matter how excited his body was, Qi Rui's spiritual world was undisturbed.

After reading one letter after another, there were actually very few letters exchanged between the two, so it didn't take long for Qi Rui to see the last one. The two pieces of paper inside the envelope are divided into two parts, which are completely different from the contents of the previous letter. This made Qi Rui vaguely remember that he didn't seem to have finished reading the letter at that time. Why didn't he have time to finish reading it, Qi Rui couldn't remember. But he knew he deliberately didn't finish reading it at the time.

Browsing the first page again, Qi Rui saw an ordinary greeting that was no different from the previous letter. It's like the feeling of sporadic snow falling on your face, there is a little bit of coolness, and after a while, there is nothing. After experiencing the test of life and death, looking at these ordinary lives, Qi Rui only has such a feeling left.

The second page opened, and the language of greeting was still answered. Seeing that Chu Xue finally asked when Qi Rui would return to China, Qi Rui raised his head and looked at the horizon in front of him. Seeing Chu Xue's anticipation for the reunion on the ship returning home, Qi Rui finally felt a warm feeling in his heart. Even if you have to report to Beijing first, it doesn't take too far to get from Beijing to Nanjing.

After reading it, Qi Rui was stunned, "...... Qi Rui, I still want a child after thinking about it. So you have to take care of yourself, and when you come back safely, you'll probably see that I'm a mother......"

Even if you are born and die on the battlefield, even if you have experienced so many dangers, even if you have seen hellish conditions. Qi Rui's calm spirit could not continue to maintain Qi Rui's calmness. A strong sour breath rushed from his chest to his throat, making Qi Rui feel difficult to breathe. The sour breath then went up, and Qi Rui felt that his whole face was numb. When the sour breath rushing to his head made Qi Rui feel dizzy and his hair almost stood on end, the pain he had never felt before made the young major general clench his teeth and couldn't breathe. In the pain of almost drowning, Qi Rui finally took a breath. Then he heard himself let out a low moan. The last time this kind of sound was when Qi Rui fell off the horizontal bar and fell heavily on the mat, Qi Rui thought he was going to fall to death, the sound made in severe pain.

The view and structure of the world that I learned from my father are very effective in protecting the spirit of the soldier Qi Rui, but when facing love, this protection is obviously ineffective. However, Qi Rui is like a sophisticated machine, still trying to find a solution to the dilemma in front of him.

"The reason why the pain of the soul is hard to resist is because when you feel that your heart is hurting, it is not an illusion but a real ......"

"Personally, I think this is one of the functions that humans can survive. It is the failure that is the one that makes us so impressed by the analogy of failure as intense pain......"

"If you want to know yourself, you must first admit that your existence is material, which is the basic idea of materialism. Only by acknowledging this fact can you acknowledge the problem and possibly solve it......"

The words that had played a key role in Qi Rui's life hovered in Qi Rui's mind, trying to let Qi Rui's spirit take the lead again in the buzzing tinnitus, and then calm down the abnormal movements of those bodies formed half-born and half-acquired. But this kind of effort not only failed to succeed, but doubled Qi Rui's pain.

Just when Qi Rui felt that the pain was almost about to explode his whole body, he couldn't bear the torture and began to cry. All the emotions found such an outlet, turning into tears and gushing out. Even at such a moment when emotions had achieved complete victory, Qi Rui's spiritual realm still stubbornly held the last position. In Qi Rui's mind, there seemed to be a figure who said calmly and with a slight mockery: "It seems that the solution to the problem can also be solved by nature, even if the children's crying is just to express their emotions." ”

With this reaction, the last reason is very decently lurking under the tide of emotions for the time being. Qi Rui covered his face with his hands, lying on the railing of the high-rise rooftop and crying lowly. At the entrance of the stairs on the rooftop in the distance, the guards quietly looked at Qi Rui's twitching shoulders and listened to the faint crying in the air. A feeling of emotion filled the hearts of the guards, 'a person who is so calm and self-controlled will cry just like us ordinary people'. The guards not only did not have the intention of mocking, but were very moved.
