Chapter 18 (2/2)

Bai bin didn't speak, but his mouth was wide open. He growled and cried silently. The most valiant soldier of the Republic, at the moment, is like a helpless child, heartrending with pain.

Liu Yanbo stopped going to Guan Baibin. He started a cigarette from his own place, puffed out a strong smoke, and then said, ”binshao, you have been excellent since you were a child. It's the pride of your parents to jump grades continuously when you go to school. Do you still remember? That year, you were specially recruited by the army. Before you went to the village, there were banquets in the village, which was more lively than the Spring Festival. We are afraid that you will be looked down upon when you arrive at the military academy. Your mother and several uncles have helped you make several foreign-style new clothes all night. Tanshao and I will envy you for a long time. ”

Liu Yanbo took another puff of smoke, paused for a moment and continued: ”we are so remote there, and there is no financial source. You know that. But you were growing up at that time. After you went to the military academy, you were afraid that you could not eat well. Your father would send you a sum of money every month in the town. Can you guess where the money came from? Yes, it's all the people in the village who are saving and saving. ”

”Don't you dare to forget these?” Finally, Liu Yanbo's eyes have become extremely fierce: ”you don't forget that you are not living for yourself, you carry the hope of everyone. Therefore, put away your weakness, Qinghe Village's face, you can't lose, also have no qualification to lose.”

Words and phrases, like a flying knife into Bai Bin's heart, his face became more twisted and painful, he struggled, holding the railing, slowly stood up, raised his head, straight as a javelin standing against the wind, said aloud: ”I did not forget, I dare not forget.”Liu Yanbo patted Bai bin on the shoulder, and his eyes became soft. Looking at the stars in the distance, Liu Yanbo asked softly, ”binshao, have you ever been back for so many years?”

”I've been back. I'll take time to go back every year. I can't let people say that Qinghe Village has lost his children and grandchildren!” Bai bin wiped away his tears and looked at the stars in the distance and asked, ”Bo Shao, have you ever been back?”

What a sweet thing to go home.

But Liu Yanbo's home was destroyed. He watched his parents, relatives and friends die in front of his eyes one by one, and watched his hometown full of laughter turn into a hell on earth.

What kind of feeling is that?

Probably only experienced people will understand it!

Liu Yanbo shook his head and said with a sad smile, ”I dare not.”

Bai bin looks at Liu Yanbo. Without blame, he just feels distressed and silently hands over the wine pot.

Liu Yanbo took a drink from the teapot, lit a cigarette and said, ”binshao, you have done a good job. We should be very pleased to see you now. You have not let them down.”

Bai bin, 31 years old, with the rank of lieutenant colonel and the trump card of ”dragon war”, how can such a man be disappointed?

”No!” Bai bin firmly said: ”everyone is blaming me. My elder brother is like a father, but I didn't take good care of you.”

Liu Yanbo sighed: ”how can I blame you! It's my choice. ”

”Why didn't you come to me back then?”

The problem has returned to the original point, which has been lingering in Bai Bin's mind. It is not only his concern, but also his obsession.

”At that time, I was infected with the plague. I don't know why I survived. I'm not sure how long I can live. Is there a latent period? You're the hope of everyone. I can't take risks. ”

Liu Yanbo said lightly, but Bai bin heard the tears.

A 13-year-old boy, suffering from the plague and suffering from the loss of relatives and friends, wanders around the world alone. Maybe he fought with wild dogs for food, maybe he slept in the wind and rain

No one knows what he's been through?

But Bai bin knows that Liu Yanbo was not going to live easily at that time.

”Where did you go then?”

Liu Yanbo closed his eyes and opened his hands. The light words dissipated in the breeze.

”I forgot...”
