I only heard a noisy conversation coming from the security door, but the door never opened, Luke and Li Mansha looked at each other suspiciously, not knowing what was going on, just as Luke was about to continue knocking on the door.

The security door opened, only to see that Luke and Li Mansha's parents were there, and the table was already full of sumptuous meals, it seemed that Liu Qi had already told them about his return.

The two stood at the door for a while and were still a little at a loss, looking at their parents' re-dyed hair, the two felt that their noses were sour, and Lu Yuan smiled kindly at Luke and said, "I'm tired!" Come in with Xiao Man! It's time to eat! ”

The thousand words of missing, and the heartache and pain along the way have long been left behind at this time, and the most sincere sentence is enough to move people to tears.

And Cai Xianzong was shopping in the Fuxing Mall at this time with a female soldier who was about the same age as him, twenty-seven or eight, both of them were wearing their own good-looking clothes, Cai Xianzong, who had always been unkempt, even rarely cut a handsome part, and was still wearing a neat casual suit, and his originally slender figure now looked even more energetic.

Originally, Cai Xianzong was a thin-skinned sullen one, and he had long wanted to chase others, but he just didn't dare to go, and now that he has been on the line of life and death for so long, he seems to understand that life is too short, why bother to hide the truth, and the whole person has become bold and cheerful.

He recounted what he had seen and heard on the territory of the Salvation Army, and the woman next to him looked adoring.

Tang Ming, who has always been cheerful, sat on the roof of the residential building where her home was unusually at this time, looking at the direction of the Salvation Army with blank eyes, Mo Han's appearance kept appearing in his mind, and the wine bottle in his hand kept pouring wine into his mouth.

Late at night, fireworks flew into the air from time to time to announce the arrival of victory to all the living, although they did not defeat the enemy, but these people who had been devastated by the war finally saw the hope of life at this time, and these were enough.

The morning sun passes through the green leaves of the trees, leaving a beautiful path of light, like a fairyland, except that this is not a tourist attraction, but a cemetery of fallen soldiers.

The martyrs' cemetery on the outskirts of the city was originally just a wasteland full of weeds, but before the war began, the Restoration Army relocated all the people who died for the cause of restoring the country, rebuilt tombstones for them, and planted a sapling on everyone's grave in the spring.

In the past few months, the originally small sapling has now turned into a stout tree, just like the Restoration Army, from an insignificant small force, step by step to a dominant army.

On the trail between the jungles, several people stopped in front of a stout mutant tree.

On the tombstone, Huo Zhenxiao's smiling face is still so bright, but he is forever frozen in that moment, and he can no longer brag and chat with them.

Liu Xueling took her daughter and knelt in front of the grave in unison, she wiped Huo Zhenxiao's photo with her painful hand, and the tears in her eyes gushed out like the sea water bursting the embankment.

"Lao Huo! I've come to see you with your little beans, why did you abandon us!? Didn't you say you wanted to come back and live with us at that time? You just talk like that!? Why are you abandoning us! Why! .....”

As she spoke, Liu Xueling was sad and speechless, just knelt there and kept crying, and her daughter also knelt beside the grave and cried loudly.

For a moment, the atmosphere of sadness echoed back and forth in this empty wood.

Looking at Liu Xueling's sad appearance, Luke and Li Mansha couldn't help but feel their noses sour, how long did she wait for her husband?

Luke didn't know, but he knew that Liu Xueling had been alone with a child for so long, and the hardships and sadness were definitely not something that others could understand, and the person who made her think about it day and night became a half-meter-high grave at this time, how could such a reality not make people cry.

I don't know how long it took, Liu Xueling stopped crying sadly, she took Xiaodouzi's hand and slowly stood up, her eyes were almost blind from crying at this time.

Liu Xueling said hoarsely to the mutated tree on Huo Zhenxiao's grave: "Old Huo! I feel that you are by my side, I can feel your soul in this tree, and I know that you will be with us! I know. ”

As she spoke, she stretched out her trembling hand and slowly touched the thick trunk, Liu Xueling looked up at the leafy tree with difficulty, smiled with relief, she bent down and said to the little bean who was still sobbing:

"Little Bean! Do you feel it, your dad has become this tree now, and we will come to see her often in the future, okay? ”

Xiaodouzi broke free of Liu Xueling's hand, ran to the side of the tree, and hugged the big tree tightly, as if the tree was really Huo Zhenxiao.

Suddenly Luke felt someone behind him tap him on the shoulder, it was actually Liu Hao, he looked at Liu Hao in surprise, he didn't know when he appeared behind him.

Liu Hao looked at Huo Zhenxiao's grave with a wry smile, and said with a sigh: "In war, the injured are always ordinary people, why is everyone deprived of a lot of cherished things by this war, it's good to look down on it!" Come on! Commander Liu has something to look for you, hurry up and meet with him! I'll just look at it here! ”

After that, the two walked out of the woods side by side, only to see a BJ212 jeep parked on the side of the road, and the young driver inside saw Luke and Li Mansha coming out, and immediately opened the door for the two.

Sitting in the speeding car, Luke was really in the mood to relax and look at this familiar and unfamiliar CZ, at this time on both sides of the road has been built huge greenhouses and farms, the further you go into the city, the more factories and farms along the way.

At this time, the CZ was renovated with amazing efficiency, and there were open shops on both sides of the road, and in order to celebrate the arrival of representatives of the Central Army and the Northwest Army, the price of today's shopping malls was generally reduced, and now the CZ Street is no different from the peaceful times of the past, and it is full of shopping crowds, which seems to be very lively.

With the gradual entry into the core area, the bustling commercial street has disappeared at this time, and the current headquarters of the Restoration Army has been relocated to the old office building of the HH Arsenal, and the core area on the south bank is now not peaceful at all, but is full of patrolling and training soldiers.
