Chapter 194: Geng Zhiping's Wish
"The tiger wanted to play cards, but the kittens, dogs, and bears did not dare to play cards with him, because the tigers were so powerful that they could eat them at any time. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info At this time, the tiger said, I tie my own claws and put on braces, so that I can't bite you and eat you, you can run away at any time. Come on, try playing cards with me. ā
The kitten and the puppy agreed after thinking about it, because this was an opportunity to build a good relationship with the jungle overlord, and if he could become a card friend with the tiger, he would have his back against the big tree in the future. So everyone sat down to play cards together, and in the first game, the tiger and the kitten won the puppy and the bear. In the second set, Tiger and Puppy won Kitten and Bear, and in the third set, Tiger and Bear won Kitten and Puppy. ā
"Uncle, do you understand?"
The short-haired boy said as he rubbed his index finger against the eagle-shaped brooch on his left chest, which was the badge of the S-class falcon.
Qi Lie, who was sitting beside him, pondered for a while and said, "I understand." It's a scam where the tiger disguises itself as harmless, creating the illusion that the kittens, puppies, and bears can win too. But in fact, only the tiger has been winning. ā
"That's not the right thing to say." Qi Xinwu shook his head and said, "Using this children's story as a metaphor for the Council of the Awakened is too superficial, the members of the Council come from various forces, and it is impossible for the Awakened of every force to be united, and the entanglement of interests in the Council will be ten million times more complicated than this." But, if you think about it from another angle, for the kitten and the puppy and the bear, they did win, so they were willing to stay and continue. ā
"But according to the tiger's arrangement, the kitten, the dog, and the bear each lost twice, and they only won once?" Qi Lie patted his skull, unable to understand.
"Uncle, people have a gambler's mentality, as long as they win once, they always want to win the second time. Besides, the Council of the Awakened doesn't really play cards, and the cards are played with fixed chips at the poker table, and they don't want to continue playing if they lose twice and win once. But the council is different, some chips that are useless to you can just be used to 'lose' to pave the way for the next 'win'. Well, that's all I can understand. I can't talk any deeper, and I don't understand politics. I can't guess what Commander Liu and Chairman Yang think. Qi Xinwu lifted the bangs on his forehead and suddenly sighed.
Qi Lie's mind is not complicated, but he knows his nephew very well, and in the blink of an eye, he understands why Qi Xinwu sighed. Qi Xinwu is a natural prodigy, he can speak English at the age of three, write poetry at the age of eight, and he has been the first in every exam since he was a child, the first in the whole school, the first in the district, and the first in the city, and there has never been an exception. Therefore, Qi Xinwu was famous in the city when he was still in junior high school, and it is difficult for young people to be famous without arrogance.
When the disaster broke out, Qi Xinwu broke other people's evaluation of him as "a nerd will only die studying", brazenly killed corpses to save people, became an awakened person, and saved dozens of classmates, and his evaluation of himself in his heart was infinitely improved under the reverent gaze of others.
But before he could show his ambitions, Liu Yuanzhou and Yang Xiaoqian, the two demons, were born. It's just a Liu Yuanzhou, after all, Liu Yuanzhou is much older than Qi Xinwu, and he is the deputy director of the city security department, no matter how amazing his performance is, Qi Xinwu can comfort himself and say, "In ten years, it may not be worse than him."
But Yang Xiaoqian, who is younger than Qi Xinwu, no one has heard of this person before the disaster, but he can establish such a behemoth as the Far Rescue Association in a short period of time, with more than 20 awakened people and thousands of fighters, holding the lives of tens of thousands of people, on an equal footing with Liu Yuanzhou and Jiang Haichao.
Qi Xinwu's proud achievements are in front of him, like the light of fireflies competing with the bright moon, so every time I think of this, Qi Xinwu will have unwillingness and loss in my heart.
"Okay, it's not good for young people to always sigh." Qi Lie got up and patted Qi Xinwu on the shoulder, "You're busy with you, I'll go find Geng Zhiping first." ā
Qi Xinwu nodded in response, and continued to devote himself to his busy work, the awakened people of other forces were about to arrive at Xinyuanjiang one after another, and they must be well entertained as hosts.
When Qi Lie slowly swayed into Geng Zhiping's office, Geng Zhiping was sitting in a chair watching a video. However, Qi Lie could see at a glance that Geng Zhiping was not watching movies and TV series to pass the time, because Geng Zhiping's sitting posture was too upright, and he usually put his legs on the table.
Qi Lie stepped over to Geng Zhiping and glanced at the screen, the picture was blurry and dim, it seemed to be a video recorded by someone with a mobile phone, and there was a large figure in front of him, densely surrounded by a high platform, and there was only one figure standing on the high platform, who was talking.
"Many people may think that we are past the crisis, but this is not the case. We are still living on islands of material abundance, living in exile in the vast ocean. ā
"Many soldiers have burned their lives, brought us a great beacon of hope, and lit our way, but the long night that imprisoned the freedom of the soul is not over, and the road is still full of thorns."
After only hearing these two sentences, Qi Lie blocked the words that were about to come out of his throat, straightened his waist, and stood straight next to him, watching this video with Geng Zhiping.
"As long as there is one compatriot who cannot be fed and clothed, we will never be satisfied!"
ā¦ā¦
"One day, we will realize the dream of Yuanjiang in our hearts!"
ā¦ā¦
"On that day, the bumpy and tortuous road will finally become a smooth road, and the light will be covered with light and the darkness will be dispelled!"
"On that day, the sound of singing and laughter will be all over the streets and alleys, and thousands of lights will shine on the world!"
Qi Lie could hear Geng Zhiping's heavy breathing, and when he looked down, his hands on his knees were clenched into fists, so hard that his knuckles began to white.
In the video, one after another troops of the Far Rescue Association drove to the high platform, and the power was shocking. Immediately afterwards, the figure on the high platform raised his right hand and began to take the oath.
First the soldiers of the Far Rescue Society in the audience, then the corpse hunters outside the blockade line, and finally the ordinary residents of the island, when the voices of tens of thousands of people sounded together, Qi Lie's mood climbed to the top, and he was excited and regretful, regretting that he could not be there at the scene at that time.
After a few more minutes, when he saw the steel monument turned into a sword, the video ended, Geng Zhiping lifted the mouse and turned off the player, covered the screen of the laptop, turned his head to Qi Lie and said: "Just now we watched the pledge meeting of the Far Salvation Association, and there were many people who recorded the video at the scene at that time, but only this one can be transmitted." This is a confidential matter and should not be divulged. ā
"Yes." Qi Lie nodded, knowing that this video could be transmitted back purely because Yang Xiaoqian was willing to let them watch it, and none of the nails planted by other forces on Jiangxin Island could successfully transmit the video back.
"This guy didn't give me notice in advance, alas." Qi Lie complained sullenly, although he was not a member of the Far Rescue Society, he belonged to the oldest group of corpse hunters, and the newly formed "Ashes" team after breaking away from the falcon was one of the only four S-level corpse hunting teams, Yang Xiaoqian actually did not notify him in advance and invited him to watch the ceremony, which made him very depressed.
Geng Zhiping's focus was on another matter, he looked deeply at the computer on the table with an inexplicable gaze, was silent for a long time, and asked a word.
"If we die, will the name be engraved on that monument?"
