ACT236: Old Things

In the afternoon, Cao Zheng and Xiaomeng returned from the cemetery, and halfway through, they happened to meet Fang Fei and Xiaozhuang, who went to sweep the tomb of Jinbo. Xiao Meng and Fang Fei said hello, while Cao Zheng looked Xiao Zhuang with a sad face up and down, his eyes were not very friendly.

"Lao Cao, Jiujiu seems to have something to do with you." Fang Fei squeezed his eyes with Cao Zheng without a trace.

Cao Zheng understood and nodded silently.

"Looks like they're done." Yang Xiaomeng looked at the backs of the two of them escaping into the mountains and forests, and smacked her lips: "I don't know what the result is." ”

"The lack of sleep is a pillow, and the fuel must be solved anyway." The personnel have their own division of labor, Cao Zheng's main responsibility is still to sail, as long as he is given fuel, everything else is easy to say.

After that, without saying a word, the two walked through the difficult mountain forest back to the living quarters, along the breezy mangrove forest, and went straight to the shore of the boat. There was no one on the shore at this time, and from a distance, I could see that the small cabin and the big canteen were more lively, Cao Zheng frowned and thought about it, and dragged the gangway to climb onto the yacht.

"Huh? Don't go looking for ninety-nine? Yang Xiaomeng hadn't had time to eat in the morning, but at this time, she smelled the aroma of the food brought by the sea breeze, and her stomach rumbled uncontrollably.

"The turbine still needs to be overhauled once, they just finished talking, and they are probably still eating, you go first, just tell him I'm back." Cao Zheng picked up the toolbox on the deck, tilted his head and thought about it, and then instructed: "By the way, do you need that fishing boat, if it doesn't work, I want to disassemble some parts." ”

"Okay, I'll ask, do you need me to bring you food?" Yang Xiaomeng wrote down what he explained and asked, "Where is the helper?" Do you need it? ”

"I don't eat it." Cao Zheng responded, stopped and said: "See if the old generation is busy, let me help if I am not busy." ”

"I shouldn't be busy at this point." Yang Xiaomeng smiled evilly, shook her long hair like a waterfall, and twisted her waist and walked to the cabin.

……

Saddle vine trail, shaded.

Song Yao sat under the tree, the sunlight penetrating the canopy, and the light spots were scattered all over the ground.

Sun Houji squatted opposite her, took out an iron box from his trouser pocket, picked up a cigarette without a trademark from it, and turned the grinding wheel in his hand, the flame was lightly ignited, and the green smoke was swirling.

"Can you give me one?" Song Yao sniffed, and there was the fresh smell of grass and trees in the forest beside her, mixed with cigarette smoke, which had a unique taste.

Sun Jiji held a cigarette obliquely, handed the iron box and lighter to Song Yao, and watched Song Yao hang his head, hold a cigarette, and light a fire in a daze, all in one go, lazy and decadent.

Song Yao slowly spit out a string of green smoke, her eyes flashed with water, and she sighed: "Tell me, what happened in those days?" ”

"Do you remember before you fell unconscious?" Sun Jiji didn't rush to tell, looked at Song Yao with curiosity, and asked tentatively, "That should be called a coma, right?" ”

"I vaguely remember." Song Yao straightened her hair, smiled bitterly, and said, "Coma or hibernation, it's almost the same." ”

"Then I'll start talking after you're unconscious." Sun Houji touched his nose, collected his mind, and recalled the past years.

A few minutes ago, the moment Sun Houji said the word 'Jiang He', Song Yao understood that this person had indeed seen it himself, and he had fought side by side.

The snowy city of Beijing, the Chinese statue surrounded by corpses, the cold wind and the cold snap, that year, she lost too much and wrote too little.

"I remember, we were supposed to be breaking through, right?" Time has passed for a long time, and many details, Sun Houji doesn't remember very clearly, and can only recall a rough idea: "The situation was quite chaotic at that time, you and Brother Feng were rushing in front of them, yes, Brother Feng, do you still have an impression?" ”

"Yes." Song Yao nodded, she remembered this person that she and Jiang He were trapped in China Zun, and Wang Zhongyu, who was responsible for their safety, was unfortunately killed, and after that, it was this Brother Feng who had been doing his best to protect the two of them.

"Well, you hibernate during the breakout process and were almost dragged down by the walking corpse, but fortunately, Brother Feng was next to you and pulled you back."

"Then, is Brother Feng okay now?" As Sun Houji stumbled and narrated, Song Yao's thoughts also flew back to that snowy day.

Sun Houji's face darkened, and he said, "Brother Feng... It's gone, it's not in the building. "Actually, Brother Feng fell into the corpse group because of rescuing Song Yao, but Siren has passed away, there is no need to say some details too clearly, just remember it, there is no need to increase sadness.

Song Yao can probably guess one or two, in that environment, everyone is too busy to take care of themselves, Brother Feng saved her, but no one can save Brother Feng.

"Then we went back to the floor." Sun Jiji lit a cigarette again and said, "Your object, he was still hanging outside the building at the time, we went around the floor to the fire escape, and tried to pull him back, he heard that you had an accident, and he was going crazy at that time." ”

Song Yao smiled, and the usual expression of the stunned young man naturally appeared in front of her.

"We didn't know your specific situation at the time, we all thought you were dead, I and that Yankee and my brothers blocked the staircase, and your partner took you to the building, and then I don't know what happened, we heard movement inside, and when we went back, Jiang He cried and laughed, and the devil was stunned."

"The Yankees said he was overly sad and worried that something was going to happen to him, so he was going to tie him up, but he started yelling that you weren't dead."

"In the next few days, we were trapped in the building, Jiang He thought of a way to solve the problem of rappelling in the air, and then we began to wait for the walking corpses to freeze to death, and waited for a week."

"You made it." Song Yao sighed for a while, Jiang He is really still the same Jiang He, and he will not give up under any circumstances.

"Well, we are all starving to death, and finally one morning we found that all the walking corpses were lying in the nest, so I won't talk about the specifics in the middle, in short, the remaining ten or so of us left China Zun alive." Sun Houji sighed and continued: "It's really a catastrophe, we were in that mood at that time, tsk, I really can't say it." ”

"And then?"

"Then we parted ways, and the Yankees said they were going back to China, and he had three or four more men who left with him in waves. I persuaded Jiang He, meaning to let him go with us, before we and Wang Lian went to China Zun, Shao Lian explained to us the location of the station, it was already a cold winter and a moon, and it was not difficult to find a boat to reach the island without a walking corpse. ”

"He didn't say yes." Song Yao said softly.

"Yes, he is very strong, so he said that he would not come with us, that he had made an appointment with your companions, and that he must go back." Thinking of the young man who had some tendons, Sun Houji couldn't help but sigh with emotion, and said: "I admire him a lot, so everyone lives and dies together, and it's not good to just watch him take you on the road alone." We stayed in the city for two days, got a car, prepared some water and dry food, and escorted him out of the city all the way before we went out to sea. ”

"Thank you." Song Yao's eyes were a little red.

"Alas, there's nothing to thank, to be honest, I thought he was hanging, thousands of miles away, just him, and if there was an accident, it would be over." Sun Houji twisted off the cigarette butt and smacked his lips: "I underestimated him, enough for the gentleman...... Then again, why didn't you see him? ”

"He's gone." Song Yao's eyes flickered a little, and he said lightly.

Sun Houji was dumbfounded, and the moment he asked, he noticed something, and before he regretted it, Song Yao gave the answer.

"Ugh." In this regard, Sun Jiji could only sigh and ask in a low voice, "Did he see you wake up?" ”

Song Yao pursed her lips, swallowed the bitterness in her throat, and said with a smile: "I saw it." ”

The two were silent for a while, each digesting their emotions, not knowing what to say for a while, and the atmosphere became a little dull.

After a long time, Song Yao gradually calmed down, blinked, opened the page of sadness, and asked, "Are our friends okay?" ”

"Huh?"

"Zeng Yadong and Mai, they followed Xin Xiayang with them at that time, they should have landed on the island, right?" Song Yao was not confident when she asked, she had been separated for many years, and it was rare to hear from each other, so she was afraid that there would be bad news again.

Hearing these two names, Sun Houji's blank expression loosened, revealing a look of sudden realization, and said in surprise: "Are they with you?" No wonder. ”

"What do you mean?" Song Yao raised her eyebrows, looking at his expression, she seemed to know the two.

"Hahaha, rest assured, they're fine." Sun Houji's eyes rolled, he didn't know what he thought, smiled mysteriously, and said, "Wheat is that little girl, right?" Zeng Yadong is a girl with glasses. ”

"It's them."

"The little girl is married." Sun Houji was a little talkative, and said with a smile: "We only returned to the island after the beginning of spring, and the island was already on the right track at that time, and when we went back, we were like refugees, and people were doing well on the island." ”

"Really?" Song Yao's eyes widened and she was surprised: "The wheat is all married?" ”

"That's not it, it just ended last year, and I have to add Ding this year." When Sun Houji talked about these trivial matters, his face was full of the liveliness of a young man, and he swept away the stiffness in the previous conversation on stilts, and said happily: "I don't know their relationship with you, oh, it would be good if I knew it earlier, and I can still follow it." ”

"Stained?" Song Yao was puzzled.

"Ang, when we were in the stilted building, didn't I tell you about the current situation on the island, Zeng Yadong is terrible now, she is the right-hand man of Yao Ying's faction, and when she is on duty, she is basically in charge of the overall situation, and Yao Ying only comes forward when there is a big problem."

"......" Song Yao was dumbfounded, she couldn't speak for a long time, the girl with glasses in her impression is now also involved in the political whirlpool of intrigue?

Sun Houji only thought that Song Yao was surprised to learn about his old friend's situation, and said with a smile: "It's been a long time, everyone is on the same front, don't be stunned, you can meet when we go back!" ”

"yes, I'm looking forward to it." Song Yao regained her expression and smiled a little unnaturally.
