Chapter 70: Tombstones
.lā
Yan Xiangnuan was a little uncomfortable by him, but in the end he chose to compromise, "I'll go with you to Tong Hui's funeral." Yan Xiangnuan closed his eyes and took a deep breath to cheer himself up, and then opened his mouth.
decided to go to the cemetery with Jin Weimo to participate in Tong Hui's burial ceremony, although there was an element of distress for Jin Weimo, but a large part of it was because of Tong Hui.
Now Tong Hui's soul is more transparent than at the beginning, and the appearance that will disappear at any time let Yan Xiangnuan know that he will not stay in this world for long, he is likely to leave like Yuan Fang, and the ghosts have merit points, Yan Xiangnuan has to admit that she is also a little greedy to get Tong Hui's merit points.
Jin Weimo was silent for a moment, and then responded in a hoarse voice: "Hmm." ”
He has always been extremely confident in his endurance, and he will definitely go to Tong Hui's burial ceremony, but the severe pain makes him want to endure but collapse, he doesn't want to fall down in front of Tong Hui's grave, so although he knows that this is a bit cruel to Yan Xiangnuan, he still feels that it is good that she is willing to go.
Tong Hui is an orphan, adopted by the veteran's grandfather since he was a child, and when he grew up, he naturally enlisted in the army, so his funeral ceremony came to the people in addition to a group of his comrades-in-arms, that is, the elderly old man in the family.
Jin Weimo originally wanted to hide the old man according to Tong Hui's thoughts, but he also looked forward to the old man being able to send Tong Hui on his last journey, the old man didn't look old, but he was also shrewd, although he was grief-stricken by Tong Hui's death, but he was also proud of the sacrificial grandson, so he resolutely participated in the funeral ceremony in his old age.
Yan Xiangnuan participated in the funeral of this kind of soldier for the first time, and the ceremony was very rigorous, which also shocked Yan Xiangnuan, and Tong Hui's spirit floated in the rain.
"Chief, engrave Xiaohui's tombstone with your name!" The old man looked at Tong Hui's bare tombstone and prayed earnestly to Jin Weimo.
Jin Weimo stood straight in front of the tombstone and looked at the old man without saying a word.
The old man was very disappointed and choked up, the rainy weather, his health was not good, and now because of sadness, he began to staggered and unsteady.
Several soldiers standing in the rain immediately stepped forward to support the old man, while Tong Hui was not far away, and then bent down and knelt down to kowtow to the old man: "Grandpa, you must take care of yourself, and I will repay you for your nurturing kindness in the next life." ”
Except for Yan Xiangnuan, no one present could hear what Tong Hui said, and Tong Hui didn't seem to be willing to get up without getting a response from the old man, so he knelt for a long time and didn't move.
Yan Xiangnuan looked very sour, standing next to Jin Weimo, she was holding a black umbrella, turned her head and gently pulled the green sleeves of the person next to her, and then approached him and whispered in his ear about Tong Hui's situation.
Jin Weimo's face became more and more serious when he heard this, he straightened up and stepped forward, and because he was enduring the pain in his legs, he spoke to Old Man Tong in a hoarse voice: "Old man, sooner or later, this tombstone will be engraved with Tong Hui's name, but not now, please understand, I believe Tong Hui also hopes so." ”
"Chief, old man, I'm too old to be afraid of death, so you can engrave your name on this tombstone!" Grandpa Tong Hui continued to pray.
He knew why Xiaohui set up a tombstone in the army, but this tombstone was empty, and he couldn't even put a photo, but he was reluctant, reluctant to Tong Hui Because of him, he couldn't even put a photo on the tombstone.
Jin Weimo was silent, but he failed to answer the old man's prayer.
Yan Xiangnuan listened to the old man's pleading, and was also a little annoyed, she understood very well the old man's heart that wanted to engrave Tong Hui's name, after all, Tong Hui was a hero, he sacrificed greatly, and his sacrifice also gave this dark society a glimmer of light, but such a person, his departure, but his name was not engraved on the tombstone, so it is too unfair to treat a hero like this.
She couldn't understand why Jin Weimo didn't agree to the old man's request, and she tried her best to suppress the anger in her stomach, if it weren't for the rigor of this ritual at the moment, she would definitely have lost her temper on the spot.
As the rain gradually increased and the atmosphere of sadness was rendered, the old man of the Tong family continued to crumble sadly, Jin Weimo saw that the weather was cold, and it was a rainy day, so he ordered two subordinates to send the old man home safely, and the old man left with the support of the two soldiers.
Tong Hui finally raised his head from the posture of kneeling and kowtowing, looking at the figure of the old man leaving, Tong Hui stood up gratefully and saluted all the comrades present, and then his soul gradually faded into a little starlight and dissipated in the rain curtain, and after a while, a merit point the size of an egg condensed from the place where Tong Hui disappeared and left, and the merit point slowly floated in the air and finally flew into Yan Xiangnuan's body and disappeared.
Yan Xiangnuan was very surprised by the huge merit point condensed by Tong Hui, and thought about it, this is a merit point, Tong Hui is a soldier, he must have done a lot of good deeds, and it is not uncommon to have many merit points.
It's just that Yan Xiangnuan is haunted by Tong Hui's empty tombstone at the moment, and she was silent all the way back to Jin's house by car from the cemetery, and then she couldn't help but release her anger at Jin Weimo.
"Why doesn't Tong Hui's tombstone even have a name on it?" Yan Xiang asked Jin Weimo angrily.
Jin Weimo sat on the sofa a little embarrassed, he was soaked and had no idea of changing his clothes, and the pain in his injured leg was completely numb, when he heard Yan Xiangnuan's angry questioning, he raised his eyes slightly and glanced at her, and Xu gave the answer: "The army requirements." ”
"The army demands, what kind of ghost is this, why did Tong Hui sacrifice, but his tombstone can't even have a name and photo, what kind of rule is this, and why does the army have such an unreasonable request?" Yan Xiangnuan was very excited, and almost swore words.
"......" Jin Weimo glanced at Yan Xiangnuan with a complicated expression, and lowered his gaze slightly.
"Say! What kind of ability are you not silent? Jin Weimo, Tong Hui is your soldier, if it weren't for the evidence that Tong Hui worked hard to hide, do you think you could bring that ghost foundation to justice so quickly? And do you think what you are doing is really right because of Tong Hui's trust in you? Your conscience has been eaten by dogs? Yan Xiangnuan began to be a little speechless.
She really doesn't agree with Tong Hui's grievances, a hero, sacrificed but still so wronged, an unsung hero? You are too ridiculous, and Jin Weimo's silence seemed to be a fuse, completely igniting the bomb in her heart.
"Yan Xiangnuan, you don't understand." Jin Weimo frowned again and replied, but his words were full of depression.
