Chapter 837 (1/2)
It rained cats and dogs, and a thick rain curtain was hung under the eaves. The water splashed on the ground and gathered into streams, crisscrossing into the distance.
”When will this weather come to an end?” Li Qing leaned back in his chair and sighed helplessly.
”Hehe, it's estimated to last two or three months. The first month hasn't passed yet.” Qian Liming said with a smile, got up and closed the door tightly. By the way, he also closed the noisy rain outside the door, ”The Acropolis is high-lying. No matter how heavy the rain is, it can't flood us. It's hard to say in other places. I heard the day before yesterday that the Longxi army stationed along the ancient Bailing River has retreated the defense line. There is such a heavy rain here. Even if you want to fight, you can't fight it.”
Master Deng pulled his mouth and said, ”you can't say that. Don't forget how the sixth Longxi war started. Hamai secretly attacked the garrison along the ancient Bailing River in Longxi during the rainy season, which launched the appalling massacre. If I were hamehander and wanted to launch the seventh Longxi war, I would take advantage of this time.”
”Hey, I'm afraid the Xilong people are powerless now. All the top leaders of the third group army have been taken away by you. It's good that their soldiers don't rebel. How can they start a war.” Qian Liming sat down in his chair and shook his head with a smile, ”I have to say that this action is really a great good thing. It can be regarded as avenging the people of Longxi who died in the massacre.”
Master Deng blinked, leaned back on the chair and breathed slowly: ”really? I doubt your argument.”
Qian Liming looked blankly: ”how do you say that?”
”The root cause of the contradiction between the two countries has never been resolved. Our attempt to stop the killing by killing will only deepen the hatred in the end, which is tantamount to drinking poison to quench thirst. I always feel that the Longxi war will never stop. Maybe it will happen for the seventh, eighth, even ninth and tenth time in a short time.”
After saying these words, Deng Shi looked at Li Qing and seemed to want to ask for his opinions. Li Qing listened one by one, and his eyes remained on the telephone on the table for a moment.
”I don't know.” Li Qing answered lightly.
Although there seems to be an answer in his heart, Li Qing is unwilling to admit it, because as long as he admits it, Shi Yinghui's sacrifice, Ji Wenbin's sacrifice and the suffering of everyone around him will become meaningless.
Until two years later, when Li Qing stood at the intersection of the prosperous city and stared at the front page headline of the newspaper in his hand, he couldn't stop sighing: ”division Deng is right, the war has never stopped...”
But at the moment, Li Qing is still in that kind of confusion and contradiction. He has not recovered from the cruelty of Shenjing plan, and he can't be relieved. Anyway, although he didn't promote this action, he created it by himself. Most of the responsibilities are heavily on Li Qing's shoulders.
Following Li Qing's eyes, Deng Shi also focused on the telephone and smiled: ”since you want to play so much, just play one.”
”There's too much to say, but I don't know what to say.”
Master Deng said with a smile, ”you can say anything, but you'd better not mention this action. My little nephew hasn't been born yet. Otherwise, you'll say you went out to drink flower wine these days and woke up this morning.”
Li Qing had a black line on his face: ”I'm afraid... It will be more serious.”
”It's up to you.” master Deng stood up and waved to Qian Liming. ”Let's go and see others. What time is it? Why haven't we got up yet.”
His eyes were slightly heavy. Li Qing whispered, ”prepare a table of wine and vegetables. I'll be there after I call.”
Both Deng Shi and Qian Liming were stunned. They looked at each other, nodded silently, turned around, walked through the hall and went upstairs.
Just after turning the stairs, master Deng gently pulled Qian Liming's arm: ”have you really called your sister-in-law?”
”Ah.” Qian Liming nodded with a dull face. ”At that time, I thought my eldest brother might not come back. He was the owner of the Li family and a big man near the port. In case... Some things have to be dealt with. It's better to be prepared to send a message to my sister-in-law in advance.”
Deng Shibai glanced at Qian Liming: ”the captain is still trying to hide from his family. If he knows that you have breathed first, he must castrate you...”
Li Qing grabbed the microphone and hesitated for a while. Finally, he took a deep breath and finally made a decision and dialed the number.
”I'm Lin Qiuqiu, who are you?” the phone was quickly picked up, and the familiar hurried voice sounded in Li Qing's ear.
”It's me, Qiuqiu...”
After a moment of silence, Lin Qiuqiu's angry rebuke suddenly came from the microphone: ”do you know you're calling back? You haven't heard anything for such a long time, and where are you going? You don't care about so many things at home. You don't care at all. I can't contact you by phone, and I don't even have a person to discuss...”
”Qiuqiu, are you... Okay?”
Lin Qiuqiu asked in a low voice, ”do you think I will be well?”
”Sorry, I've been out too long. Don't be angry. Being angry is bad for your health, bad for... Your health.”
”I ask you, when will you be back?”
Li Qing gritted his teeth: ”there are still some things in Longxi right now...”
