Chapter 299: Shattered Ideals
After Chu Xiang jumped off the city wall, he felt that Chu Xiang had left, and everyone on the city wall looked up cautiously, looking sideways at Chu Xiang's figure.
No one dared to make a sound, the sound of the young man's footsteps on the sand was very harsh, the beasts in the distance seemed to have a tacit understanding to stop roaring, the surroundings seemed to be dead, so quiet that even the sound of snowflakes falling seemed to be audible, and the sound of the young man's self-suppressed but still excessively heavy breathing.
Li Shengxue's room was on the lowest floor on the west side of the tulou, and the young man pointed to the inside of the room and stood sideways.
Li Shengxue's room was short and small, and Chu Xiang, who was so short as one meter seven, had to bend down to get in, so small that he was next to the bed as soon as he entered.
In addition to the bed in the room, there was a table, and there were many books piled up on the table, all kinds of subjects, and on the table was a dirty notebook, and the words on it were as messy as the books on the table.
Chu Xiang picked up the notebook and carefully looked at every word written on it, many of the notebooks were advanced knowledge such as formulas that Chu Xiang couldn't understand, and turned to the end page by page, Chu Xiang saw what he was looking for.
There are only two sentences at the back of the notebook: "The ideal I have been fighting for for twenty years turned out to be just a joke." When I die, sprinkle me on the earth so that I can see more clearly. With a sigh, Chu Xiang closed the notebook.
Is the ideal just a joke, and is it destined for only death? Just like Li Shengxue in front of him, it is still said that he can only see clearly until he is in the sky.
Li Shengxue is unwilling to learn and die, but the ideals he fought for have been shattered, and life has lost the skeleton of support, just like walking corpses, only death is his destination.
"Nope. Ideals are not a joke. Chu Xiang said categorically.
"Where is Mr. Li's body?" Walking out of the low room, Chu Xiang asked.
"In the field outside." The boy said awkwardly.
"Take me there." Chu Xiangdao. The young man led the way and brought him to the door of the tulou, nervously looking at the people around him, but no one dared to make a sound.
Chu Xiang directly pushed open the door of the tulou, everyone was silent, the young man walked out of the tulou, and came to a cemetery only twenty meters away from the tulou, where more than a dozen wooden signs were erected, one of which had Li Shengxue's name written on it.
Standing in front of Li Shengxue's grave, Chu Xiang bowed down, and the person who lives for his ideals is worthy of respect at all times.
After a salute, Chu Xiang waved his hand, and the snow mound was swept away, revealing Li Shengxue's already stiff body, and the body was taken out of the cemetery.
"If you are unwilling, if you want to see clearly, then you shouldn't lie in the ground, I let you watch from the sky all the time, watch the world with me, witness our results, whether the ideal is a joke or not." Chu Xiang said slowly, and the flames of the bookbed that he had taken were rising, and in an instant, a fierce firework had already ignited.
The roaring fire reflected the young man's red face, and the young man's rough hands were clenched tightly, and tears flashed in his eyes.
I don't know when, the people in the tulou came out, stood at the door and looked at the two of them, looking at the fire burning in the air, with inexplicable expressions.
The body consumed by the flames was quickly reduced to ashes, and even the bones and teeth were burned to ashes, floating in the air, the wind could not blow, and the snow could not hit.
Stretching out his hand and holding it, the ashes gathered, and Chu stepped into the air, going straight into the air. The dusty ashes fell with the wind and snow, spilling on the town in the middle of the mountains, and disappeared into the wind and snow, just as silently as when he came.
Chu Xiang left, leaving this town where his ideals fell, he didn't want to find out who made Li Shengxue lose his ideals, what made Li Shengxue feel that his ideals were shattered, and he chose to end his life of fighting for his ideals.
A person who lives because of his ideals and dies because of his ideals is both his misfortune and his luck. Although this destination is imperfect, cruel, and invisible, it is true.
Teaching is a job with a strong mission and lofty ideals, and no one can imagine the suffering of every volunteer teacher in a remote and poor place, and it is not only the hardships of work that hinder them, but also the hardships of life.
Chu Xiang suddenly remembered that there was a classmate who had gone to the countryside to teach, and his hometown was here, and he didn't know what was going on now.
turned his head and walked towards Tianzhu City, and after a while, Tianzhu City entered Chu Xiang's eyes. Tianzhu City is not big, one kilometer long and wide, relying on the ancient city wall and built, the city wall is fifteen or sixteen meters high, the outside of the city is full of roaming beasts, it can be said that it is precarious.
The guards on the city wall were not surprised when they found Chu Xiang, Tianzhu City is a traffic artery, probably because they have seen too many masters through the siege of the beast herd and come here.
Jumping on the head of the city, Chu Xiang said, "I'm here to find someone." The cautious guard nodded, unembarrassed.
"Excuse me, where is the city government?" Chu Xiangdao.
"That's it." A guard points to the tallest white building in the distance.
"Thank you!" Chu Xiang nodded, jumped off the city, and went to the white building. After Chu Xiang left, the guards at the head of the city immediately used the walkie-talkie to inform the command: "There is a master here, saying that he is looking for someone, and now he is going to the city government." "Coming to the white building where the city government is located, this compound is the office of the combination of military and government, where the government is located, and it is also the headquarters of the Tianzhu garrison division, it seems that in order to improve efficiency, the military and the government are integrated in the same compound, so as to facilitate rapid response to various emergencies.
Chu Xiang was not familiar with the government's procedures, so he went directly to ask the soldiers on duty at the door: "I want to check the information of a friend I haven't contacted for a long time, to see if he is still in the world, what should I do?" ”
"Go into the third building on the right-hand side, Office 204 on the second floor, and provide your identity to help you check." The doorman on duty.
When Chu Xiang was questioning, someone was secretly paying attention to him, the two masters who were not low in cultivation had a Danjin-level aura, and the two who were secretly watching were also listening carefully to what the two were saying.
Of course, the people who were watching couldn't escape Chu Xiang's perception, knowing that they were just acting on orders to maintain the stability and safety of Tianzhu City, Chu Xiang didn't know.
Swiping his fingerprints and entering the government compound, the soldiers in the sentry box glanced at the information displayed on the computer, his face changed, he quickly got up, stood up and saluted and shouted: "Hello chief." The soldiers in the sentry box greeted each other, and several other soldiers hurriedly stood up with their guns and greeted in unison.
The sound of the chief made Chu Xiangleng pause for a moment, and then he remembered that he was still a colonel, and in this place where the division commander was the largest, the highest military rank should be a major general, and the colonel was indeed the chief.
With a smile, Chu Xiang turned around and saluted back: "Hard work." "I probably haven't seen such a down-and-out chief as Chu Xiang, although his body is clean, but his clothes don't look like a chief, but like those refugees in the city, there is a nondescript sword hanging on his waist, and the refugees who are alive and well look like they are returning to the city.
The eyes of several soldiers fell on Chu Xiang curiously, secretly staring at the two of them and letting down their guard, and they were also a little curious about what kind of chief this was.
In this place of Tianzhu City, except for the major general, when the division commander enters and exits, the guards will stand up and salute, shouting that the chief is good, no one else has this treatment, at most it is a salute, is it possible that this casually dressed man is a major general.
As soon as Chu Xiang walked away, several soldiers on duty couldn't wait to look at the soldiers in the sentry box, wanting to know what kind of chief had just entered.
"Demon Lord Chu Xiang." The soldier in the sentry box lowered his voice. Demon Lord Chu Xiang, the Demon Lord Chu Xiang of the Megatron world, actually came to Tianzhu City, came here, and walked in front of him, and several soldiers on duty were stunned.
The person just now didn't look like a master, let alone the legendary power, just like an ordinary predator, how not to surprise people.
"Is it true?" Someone didn't believe it and asked in a low voice.
"If the fingerprint information is displayed, there can be a fake." The soldier in the sentry box said unhappily. The two people who were secretly watching heard the words of the soldier on duty, and they were also stunned for a long time, the person just now really didn't look like a master, he didn't have the temperament of a master at all, and it looked no different from the video on the Internet.
When I went up to Office 204 on the second floor, someone in the office was consulting, and there was only one clerk inside, so Chu Xiang had to wait outside the door.
Tang Hong, where will you be, you won't hang up. Tang Hong and Chu Xiang are college classmates, both of them like to play football, as a northwesterner Tang Hong, although the figure is not very tall, but the strength is very strong, many guards taller than him can not withstand his impact, plus good physical strength, fast speed, foot work can also be, often and Chu Xiang who controls the midfield to complete wonderful cooperation, the names of the two are well-known in the school football world.
But it's a pity that after his sophomore year, Tang Hong, who felt that there was no opponent in football, switched to playing basketball, and from then on, Chu Xiang could only fight alone, and he set off a bloody storm in the football world.
Not long after, the man who consulted left in frustration, Chu Xiang walked into the office, glanced at the name tag, and said to the man behind the desk: "I'm looking for someone, my hometown is in Xiaxin County." ”
"What's your relationship with him?" The man behind the desk called Zhao Huaxin looked up and said.
"Classmates." Chu Xiangdao. Zhao Huaxin nodded, pushed the fingerprint detector in front of Chu Xiang and said, "Please verify your identity." After verifying the fingerprints and looking at Chu Xiang's identity information, Zhao Huaxin said: "Colonel Chu, what is the name of your classmate, what nationality, how old is it, and where does your family live?" ”
"Tang Hong, Tang of the Tang Dynasty, magnificent Hong, Han nationality, born in nineties, only know that his hometown is in Xiaxin County, graduated from Yue University in one or three years, and once served in the Ministry of Education of Tianhe in the new province." Chu Xiangdao.
Zhao Huaxin operated on the computer for a while, then turned to Chu Xiang and said, "It's a pity, Colonel Chu, Mr. Tang Hong died in the line of duty nine months ago. Sighing silently, Chu Xiang got up and said, "Thank you!" ”
"You're welcome, please mourn." Zhao Huaxin said. Chu Xianggang walked out of the door, and Zhao Huaxin said: "Colonel Chu, Mr. Tang Hong is buried in the Wolong Mountain Cemetery in the north of the city, and he came from afar, don't you want to take a look." Chu Xiang frowned, stopped, turned his head and said, "He died in Tianzhu?" ”
