Chapter 880: Gone
Ge Zhen didn't go to the soldiers' troops, nor did he go to 011, he came to the soldiers' cemetery and sat in an open place facing the graves one by one.
He holds the bottle in his right hand and the glass in his left hand.
"A cup of respect for the sky, a cup of loess, and a cup of respect for the dead."
"Boom! Boom! Boom! β¦β¦β
He drank the liquor in large gulps, poured his left hand into the sky, and revered the dead.
Those who go out from here naturally have to come here when they say goodbye, whether they are human beings or ghosts, they must have a beginning and an end.
"Are you really going to leave?"
Hu Hailang's voice came from behind him, after he knew that Ge Zhen had come to the Soldier's Cemetery, he put down all the work at hand and hurried over, for him, maybe nothing was more important than Ge Zhen.
"Yes." Ge Zhen turned his head.
Seeing his face, Hu Hailang's eyes showed unbearable color, his lips pursed stiffly, and he slowly walked up, opened his arms and hugged his eldest cousin in his arms.
He had many, many things he wanted to say, but he couldn't say them when they came to his lips.
"Suffered......"
In the end, he only spat out these three words, but it was enough.
Everything they have endured is something that the vast majority of people do not understand, and they will never understand, as people who hide in the darkness and hold the light forward, there are always sufferings that cannot be spoken, and there are sufferings that are unwilling to speak.
Once upon a time, Ge Zhen was still the private who dared to enter the war zone for a bounty, or the high-ranking soldier who dared to make trouble in the heavenly palace when he was angry...... Time flies quickly, and now Ge Zhen has experienced vicissitudes, and every scar left on his body has its untold story.
"It's normal to be bitter, it's not right if it's not bitter." Ge Zhen smiled and said, "When I was here, my father announced that I was the 44th soldier, and clearly told me that I would carry the weight forward. Where did I understand the true meaning of weight-bearing? At that time, the burden for me was probably how to make the soldiers rise again......"
If you haven't experienced it, you won't understand it, just as a 20-year-old person can never understand the thinking of a 30-year-old, and a 30-year-old person can never understand the thinking of a 40-year-old.
When you reach a certain age, you will think about things at this age, and after you have experienced, you will have thinking after experience.
It's like someone who has never been in a relationship will say stupid when they see a lovelorn man and woman getting drunk on the street, and those who have experienced it want to tell them that life has to go on.
What is a weight? In the past, Ge Zhen thought that he was carrying soldiers forward, but now he knew that this burden required gambling everything he had, including his wife and family, including everything he had.
"I'm tired." Ge Zhen smiled bitterly: "I didn't know what tiredness was before, but now I know." I used to think that the only pursuit of my life was the battlefield, but now I think that my wife can be cured, and my parents, my mother, and my sister can live well. Even if I have to pay for my life, I will not hesitate to do it, so ...... The only thing in my life is still the battlefield. β
These are all words from the heart, and he has hidden them before, but after this battle was ruined, he had a feeling of not vomiting and unhappy.
Would it be easy to say it? Not necessarily, just trying to spit it out.
"Now that the soldier unit has been reformed, I can rest assured and let go." Ge Zhen patted Hu Hailang's shoulder: "Cousin, you did a great job, you are really more suitable for this position than me." β
"I'm not a good fit at all!" Hu Hailang stared at him and roared: "You are the most suitable, do you really want to leave like this and never step into the country again?" β
This walk is different from any previous walk, he can see Ge Zhen's determination, once he leaves, he will never set foot in the country again, and he will be a wanderer outside for the rest of his life.
"Yes, once you leave, you will never set foot in the country again." Ge Zhen nodded: "I've done enough, what else do you want me to do?" Although I am gone, I know that I am still Chinese, a soldier forever. β
It is impossible to erase the label of a soldier from his body, because he is the first person to be a soldier, and when people at home and abroad mention soldiers, they must be talking about him Ge Zhen.
"Gone!"
Ge Zhen put on an anti-terrorist hood that only showed his two eyes, threw down the wine bottle and strode out of the soldier's cemetery.
Watching his figure slowly disappear into the vast Gobi Desert, Hu Hailang raised his hand several times to call him again, but in the end he didn't make any sound.
No one can keep Ge Zhen, who made the decision, and no one can keep him.
But his walk is not so easy.
β¦β¦
This is a small city in the northwest, and when he was about to enter the station, he saw an old acquaintance - Xiao Yuanchao.
Xiao Yuanchao was dressed in camouflage uniform, did not wear a military rank, and held a four or five-year-old boy in his right hand, who looked like a tiger, but his head was wrapped in a layer of gauze, which proved that the little boy had a head injury.
"Big brother." Xiao Yuanchao smiled at Ge Zhen.
"Aid Korea." Ge Zhen nodded, his eyes looking at the little boy: "This is your son?" β
Before Xiao Yuanchao could speak, the little boy ran over and circled around Ge Zhen with his little hands behind his back, his big eyes showing anger.
"You're my dad's big brother? Do you know who I am? I'm FΓΌhrer Xiao Zhan! The little guy said loudly, "What are you doing with your face covered?" Take it off! β
Hearing this little guy's wild words, Ge Zhen was stunned for a moment, and then laughed.
"Xiao Zhan!" Xiao Yuanchao reprimanded his son, and said to Ge Zhen: "Big brother, I'm sorry, my son ...... him"
"It doesn't matter." Ge Zhen waved his hand, his eyes full of smiles: "Tiger father has no dog, your son is very good, I like it very much, hahaha...... When we get old, the world is theirs, hahahaha......"
"Big brother, Xiao Zhan was snatched away when he was young, and he claimed to be the head of state because he ......"
"No explanation."
Ge Zhen squatted down and looked at Xiao Zhan, who was about the same size as his son: "Pay attention, I'll take off my hood now." β
Xiao Zhan stared at the two of them, staring at the father's eldest brother in front of him without blinking.
The anti-terrorist hood was slowly taken off, and Ge Zhen lowered his head.
"What are you doing with your head down?" The little one asked aloud.
Ge Zhen put the Chiyou mask on his face, raised his head suddenly, and his eyes were full of grandeur, as if he was hiding a golden iron horse.
Seeing him wearing a golden mask, Xiao Yuanchao was stunned, while his son Xiao Zhan was full of novelty and was not afraid at all.
"Allegiance, or death."
Ge Zhen let out a faint sound, which seemed to come out of hell, reaching people's ears and making people shudder, and all the sweat pores on his body exploded.
The little guy Xiao Zhan opened his mouth wide, his eyes didn't blink, and suddenly a sentence popped out of his mouth: "Uncle, you are so cool!" β
"Hahahaha......"
Ge Zhen laughed, turned around and took off the golden mask and put on the hood, no longer caring about the little kid.
But this little kid looked adoring, he felt that the words he heard just now were too cool, too majestic, too stylish, much more domineering than his own Lao Tzu.
Therefore, he kept imitating in his heart.
