Chapter 323: Loyalty and Remembrance
The men changed him into nong's suspenders, a shirt with holes, and galoshes. After Ou Xu finished changing his clothes, the person hiding in the carriage did not forget to put a little plaster on his face.
"Alright," the man nodded in satisfaction when he saw that Ou Xu had completely changed into a different appearance.
Only then did Ou Xu understand why they had to use box trucks.
At that moment, the van stopped, apparently at its destination.
The man who was putting on Ou Xu's makeup said very quickly as he got up and opened the door of the box truck, "Commander, get out of the car and go northwest, there will be a few people selling stalls on the side of the road, you find a fruit seller, tell her that you want to buy her fruit, and ask her to help you carry the fruit to your house, she will ask you to help her carry the fruit together, and then take you to the last joint point,"
"Okay, I see," Ou Xu bowed and walked out, and after jumping out of the car, he turned back to look at the person, "You three, what's your name?" ”
The man just smiled at Ou Xu, "It's just a small soldier, you don't need the commander to remember, when you have the opportunity to see the commander again in the future, let's tell the commander,"
Ou Xu clenched his hands into fists, and ordered in a low voice, "Give me life, don't die, this is an order, I understand!" ”
"Yes!" The man also gave a military salute to Ou Xu, and then reached out and closed the door of the truck.
After Ou Xu took one last look at the truck, he turned around and walked briskly in the northwest direction.
He hadn't even gone a few hundred meters before he heard a loud bang after the car behind him started and slammed into something, followed by the explosion of the fuel tank being burned.
Ou Xu only felt that his heart was trembling violently with the sound of the explosion, and all of a sudden, it shook Ou Xu's heartache. These were the most loyal warriors of their Star Sword Army, and it was he who forced them to a dead end.
Ou Xu listened to the sound of explosions, and all that flashed back in his mind was the picture of the soldier smiling at him just now.
Ou Xu told himself that he couldn't forget, even if he didn't know their names, he couldn't forget their appearance. Without their loyal sacrifice of their lives, there would have been no victory for him.
Ou Xu quickened his pace and hurried towards the next street. There is no turning back, you have to move forward, you have to win.
It wasn't until the evening that Ou Xu finally saw a few small vendors standing on the side of the road selling things.
Ou Xu slowed down like a passerby, walking and looking until he saw a woman carrying two baskets full of fruits.
Ou Xu squatted down, picked up a fruit casually, and asked, "You sell me this whole basket of fruits,"
"You want it all?" The woman asked, uncertain.
"Yes, I want to," Ou Xu nodded very surely, "You can help me pick these fruits together, I am also very tired of picking these fruits alone, my house is quite far from here,"
"Yes," the woman packed up her things, stood up and picked up a basket of fruits, and motioned for Ou Xu to pick another basket, "You can help pick another one, I can't pick two baskets of fruit alone,"
"Okay, I'll pick this basket," Ou Xu picked up a basket of fruits with both arms, "Let's go together, I'll give you money when I get home,"
"Okay," the woman nodded, and continued in a northwesterly direction.
Ou Xu walked slowly behind the woman. He was surprised that it was actually a woman this time, could it be that the Star Sword Army already needed a woman to sacrifice for them?
"How could you, a woman, come out and sell fruit?" Ou Xu couldn't help but speak.
"It's not all the same for everyone to sell, it's all about living, someone has to do this kind of thing," the woman said as if she were at home.
"What about your man? Why didn't he come out and sell fruit? Ou Xu frowned and continued to ask.
"He, he has his business, he drove the family's box truck to pull goods in the morning, saying that a friend entrusted him to do it, and it was a very important deal," the woman said in a slow and deep tone, as if an ordinary woman was talking about some common things.
Ou Xu understood. This woman's man is the driver of the open-box truck just now, the same person who died in the blasting just now. Ou Xu looked at the woman walking in front of him, and his heart ached.
"Are you willing to let him do such a hard job?" Ou Xu asked again in a hoarse voice.
"There's nothing to be reluctant to, it's all about doing things, either he does it or someone else does it, it's all the same," the woman's voice became a little shaky, obviously sad for the deceased.
"I'm sorry for making you sad," Ou Xu suddenly didn't know what to say, and his chest was clogged.
"There's nothing to be sorry for, that's his own choice, I'll blame him, but I won't sympathize with him," the woman sighed softly, "I think I'll be able to see him soon,"
"You!" Ou Xu didn't expect that this woman would also have the mind of death.
"Commander, we're here," the woman led Ou Xu to a mountain hut.
"Is this it?" Ou Xu saw that there was nothing around.
"Yes, the fighter plane is expected to arrive at 11:45 p.m.," the woman put down the fruit in her hand, "You just need to light the dry wood behind the house at this time, and the fighter plane will hover for half a minute, and you will be able to go up at this time,"
"Okay," Ou Xu nodded, and then asked, "What about you?" ”
"This is my home, I'm not going anywhere," the woman said, turning to herself and walking towards the hut, "Commander, come in and sit for a while,"
Ou Xu silently followed the woman into the hut.
When Ou Xu walked into the hut, he found that it was an extremely simple hut, with no extra furniture and decorations other than a basic table, chair and bed, and a simple wardrobe.
"How do you live in such a humble place?" Ou Xu didn't understand how the people of his army could live in such a dilapidated and humble hut.
"Because I often have to move, I don't need extra decoration at all," the woman replied.
Ou Xu nodded clearly.
It turned out that they were members of the Star Sword Army lurking in the human zone. They are constantly changing addresses in order to hide their identities.
"Thank you for your hard work, when the situation is stable, I will definitely provide you with a superior living environment, and I will never let you live in such a place again," Ou Xu glanced at the woman with some distress.
"Commander, don't bother, I'm used to life here, simple and quiet, if it weren't for the mission, I would have forgotten that I was still a member of the Star Sword Army," the woman didn't want to leave here.
"No matter what, I have to repair the house here for you, so that you can live more comfortably, I can't repay you, I don't know what to do except do this for you to be worthy of you," Ou Xu felt that his commander was really a failure, and his subordinates lived in this kind of place, and he didn't even know it.
"As long as the Commander can get back to the mothership and change the planet completely, we'll be happy," the woman replied with a smile.
"I will," Ou Xu replied solemnly.
The two of them chatted like this, and the time soon reached the agreed time. Ou Xu and the woman walked to the back of the house and lit the pair of dry firewood.
It didn't take long for Ou Xu to see a fighter plane faintly appear in the sky, getting closer and closer to him.
