Chapter 319 (1/2)

Chu Yunsheng admired Xiao Qingshan and other soldiers’ perseverance. With their ordinary human bodies, they could get to the bottom of the cave and even get to the levels that below the cave and then came back to the lakeside several times through a narrow crack.

What they did also teach Chu Yunsheng that having no power did not mean that human beings could not survive.

The broken notebook did not tell Chu Yunsheng what Xiao Qingshan saw on the third level below the ground, and Chu Yunsheng also was not interested in learning anything about it. He just wanted to leave this place as soon as possible.

According to the rough map Xiao Qingshan drew, the route they chose would lead them to the place they landed after they fell into the crack. Because of the earthquake, the crack collapsed right after they fell into it. But Chu Yunsheng was not worried, there was an insect “excavator” in his team, so there wouldn’t be any problem for them to dig out of the crack.

Because Chu Yunsheng wanted to leave the place as soon as possible, so he didn’t ask the rest of the insects to take a break. He urged Old Golden to dig as fast as it could.

It was possible to dig straight upwards. However, it would only consume them too much energy to do it. Moreover, they still needed to save energy in case of any accidents on the ground.

So they dug slantingly up to the ground. However, Chu Yunsheng didn’t expect that the place mentioned on the map was very deep below the ground. They had been digging for quite a while now, but there was no sign of them going to dig out of the ground any time soon…

Location: Hong Kong

Lee Taidou didn’t like his name. His father wanted him to become a knowledgeable man in Chinese literature, so he named him Taidou.

However, he, who was a muscular man, became a policeman in Hong Kong, after graduating from a police school.

Not only that, with his outstanding physical fitness and great fort.i.tudinous character, he even got into the Special Duties Unit – SDU.

He liked adventures and extreme challenges. Dancing on the edge of death always made him excited. It was like drugs, since the first day he touched it, he became obsessed with it. That was why during every mission, he would always choose the most dangerous task.

It was also because of this, he and his father Lee Hongchi argued constantly. His father Lee Hongchi had threatened him more than once that if he didn’t follow the path that he had planned for him, he would not be able to inherit anything from him.

In fact, Lee Hongchi’s original name was Lee Dafa. Although it meant ‘a great fortune’, it was a typical villager’s name. When Lee Hongchi was young, he didn’t go to school. Although he became rich later on, he always felt that he was lower than other people in the city. It was part of the reason why he paid a fortune teller to think of a new name for him.

He tried very hard to arrange his son to meet with a few girls that came from the upper cla.s.s. However, every time when those girls heard what his son’s job was, they would immediately reject him.

He felt ashamed every time when someone talked about his son, and every time when he asked his son to quit his job, it would worsen the relations.h.i.+p between them.

It wasn’t until the start of the apocalypse, the relations.h.i.+p between him and his son changed dramatically. He would never forget that day, his only son, who he considered unfilial, would risk his life to protect him and his wife. He would never forget that even though his son was bleeding a lot, he was still trying to stop the monster…

During those days, the entire Hong Kong was like h.e.l.l. The military forces and the police units were defeated every time during the defense. At that time, almost everyone in the city hoped that the southern Chinese army would be able to provide support.

When the news about the fallen of Wu Yang city and Peng city came to Hong Kong,

The first reaction of the people, who were living in Hong Kong, was actually not to sympathize with the people who were living in the fallen cities.

Instead, all the people inside Hong Kong, whether they were regular citizens or the high ranking officials, tried to find out where the southern Chinese army might want to move to next.

At that time, there was only one rumor going around in the city. It was that The Southern Chinese Army was going to come to Hong Kong. It was, in fact, the only rumor that most people choose to believe.

The residents of Hong Kong were living in fear every day, the sound of violent bombardment coming from a distance made them both worried and excited at the same time.

It wasn’t until a young soldier who was in a severely broken military uniform tumbled into the ruined city street while holding a bright red flag, the whole city was astir. Everyone came out of their hideouts to embrace the young soldier, kiss him, and follow him while their faces were covered in tears.

Soon, many heavily armed and seemingly exhausted troops hurriedly marched into the Hong Kong one batch after another batch.

The streets of Hong Kong were filled with people, everyone was there to welcome the soldiers. There were no flags, no flowers or confetti poppers, but everyone was waving their hands as high and as fast as they could.

There was no special propaganda, no sound of disagreement, no sign of any protests, everyone was willing or even could be described as ‘longed’ for soldiers to take over the defense of Hong Kong. They had already stopped hoping for Great Britain, which was on the other side of the planet to help them. There was no way that they would send a military division to save them.

They even had a big welcoming party on the square in front of The General Administration Department. The celebrities that were lucky to survive to this day, all came out to perform the famous patriotic song – My Chinese Heart, to welcome the highest commander of The Southern Chinese Army.
