"Borrowing the road, borrowing the road..." Li Yi had no tears. He shouted all the way and walked in front to clear the way for the deceased. Behind him was the leader of the Yubeichuan escort team. Walking at the end to protect them were Yubeichuan and Jiang Bihan.
The deceased walked westward, paving the way with paper money. He carried a large bunch of paper money on his back, and held a wad of paper money in his hand. He rubbed it as he walked. Every time he took seven steps forward, he threw paper money into the sky. This was an old local custom and is now quite popular.
Rarely seen.
Don't tell me, you can't tell. Li Yi really has a way of throwing away paper money.
He waved the paper money vigorously and scattered it several feet into the sky. When the paper money scattered in the sky, white flowers were flying all over the sky, covering the sky and the sun.
A breeze blew by, and the paper money hovered in the air, hovering and falling gently.
A squadron leader went outside to find the paper money. I don't know where he found it. After all, there is such a local custom, so it is not very difficult to find it.
"Go home, go home..." Li Yi's deep and sad voice echoed in the city along with the paper money flying and falling.
The sad atmosphere brought by the constant echo of the ups and downs of the voice penetrates inch by inch into everyone's bone marrow and into the depths of their souls.
As the calls of "Go home, go home..." gradually approached, the crowd in the east square could no longer bear it and began to commotion in low voices.
"Here they come, the leader of Yubeichuan and his companions are back."
"Go home...go home," many people listened and muttered to themselves, with tears streaming down their faces.
After the doomsday came, the world changed drastically. In this world, no one will die any day. Until now, they seem to have become numb with grief and have forgotten the sadness and weight of death.
At this moment, Li Yi's low shout reawakened the softness in their hearts and awakened the conscience in their hearts. Many people thought of their lost relatives, dead friends, and countless others.
People who were supposed to live a happy life burst into tears.
"Woo..." A dull whimper sounded in the crowd. Everyone present seemed to be possessed by an evil spirit, and all they felt in their hearts was sadness and helplessness.
It is true that life seems to be a spiritual practice, and everyone has their own hardships and ups and downs to go through!
Everyone's life seems to be arranged by some being. Birth and death are inevitable experiences. They are already prepared for life.
The coming of the doomsday shattered everything they had in an instant, pulling them into a desperate situation, as if all that was left in their lives was death and fear. At this moment, all the suffering burst out.
"Stand at attention!" Shi Qing's high-pitched voice suddenly sounded, resounding throughout the sky across the city.
"Li..." a long sound
The sound, accompanied by the attention salutes of the people still alive in the square, Li Yi and the others walked step by step and leisurely to the middle of the square.
"Stand at attention!" These two words brought everyone present back from the painful memories. Looking at Li Yi and the others' uniform formation, the fortitude and strength were engraved on everyone's face, and they rekindled the courage to live.
.
"Hope, there is still hope!" Everything must go on. In the end, there is no way except to continue to work hard. To resolve the sadness and move forward in stride, this thought flashed in the hearts of everyone present.
"Chief, we're ready!" Han Jialou trotted forward and saluted a non-standard team salute. This was his first salute in front of everyone.
He and Jiang Bihan's logistics team had already made preparations. There were hills of firewood piled in the square, and rows of young team members stood around them.
"Li Yi, go ahead!" To be honest, Yu Beichuan didn't know what the etiquette and taboos were, so he simply left it all to Li Yi to handle the whole process.
"Put it down..." Li Yi nodded and ordered them to gently place the simple stretchers on the ground of the square, on top of the nineteen stretchers, which were nineteen once-living lives.
Next to the ground, there are five bodies. They are the team members who died in the Battle of the Sea of Corpses.
According to earlier statistics, three team members were killed. When cleaning up the battlefield, two of Jiang Bihan's team members were killed by a fourth-level zombie who didn't know where to hide. Now Jiang Bihan ran aside, still in pain.
"Brothers..." Lin Songtao struggled to get up. He knelt in front of the simple stretcher and shouted out. He was already sobbing.
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu" Nearly ten family members of the team members gathered around, crying, and their sad cries could be heard far and wide in the square.
Yubeichuan and the others defeated the sea of zombies. Today was supposed to be a festive day. The sea of nearly 60,000 zombies fell at their feet. Not only did they regain the city center area, they also harvested countless zombie crystals and dozens of new enhanced ones.
The person is reborn in the team.
The Ant Alliance is developing and growing with an unstoppable momentum, which is worthy of celebration.
It's just that people nowadays tighten their fists tightly, and there is only infinite sadness in their hearts.
"Dad...I want it, Daddy!" A little boy cried and crawled over. He wanted to open up the white cloth covering the simple stretcher. Shi Qing waved his hand, and a female team member walked over and held it tightly.
He hugged her.
"Dad, I want it. Dad, please give me back my daddy..." The little boy struggled and cried loudly.
"Oh... take it with you." Shi Qing shook his head. The most tragic thing in the world is separation between life and death.
"Let's get started." Yu Beichuan nodded to Li Yi. A large group of team members behind Li Yi carefully placed simple stretchers on the pile of firewood one by one, and poured a large amount of gasoline and flammable grease on them.
"Fire the gun!" Shi Qing gave the order, "Bang, bang..." With the sound of twenty-four gunshots, Li Yi sighed and threw the torch in his hand.
"Boom..." A raging fire ignited in the center of the square, and the crimson flames rushed into the sky of the city, overwhelming the blood-red moonlight that was slowly rising.
"Woo..." A cry broke out in the square...
"Shi Qing, Li Yi, please treat your family members well according to the rules." Yu Beichuan's face was expressionless. No one knew what he was thinking at this moment.
"Don't worry, leader! Everything has been arranged." Shi Qing said bitterly. In the Ant Alliance, this is what he dislikes doing the most. After all, every time it means the death of a member of the team.
In fact, Shi Qing gave out five body-building blood pills from his share as a compensation material. At the same time, all the members who died in battle and had family members were included in the key training targets.
"Li Yi, from your late-stage brigade, set up a small team to focus on pension work." Yu Beichuan instructed. He did not want any more team members to die in battle in the future, but that was inevitable.
"Don't worry, leader, after Jiaming can lead the team independently, I will focus on logistics work." Li Yi figured it out. In fact, the logistics now is very powerful. After the city is built in the future, the city's defense will be handed over to the logistics brigade.
.
"As long as you understand!" Yu Beichuan nodded. The rear was unstable, and the team in front was like rootless duckweeds. Yu Beichuan let Li Yi go, which was undoubtedly his trust and recognition.
"Thank you, boss!" Li Yi burst into tears of gratitude. He understood Yubeichuan's good intentions all along.
"Haha, Captain Li, from now on the brothers will have to look at your face to eat." Shi Qing jokingly patted Li Yi on the shoulder.
"Hehe, I don't dare, I don't dare...as long as Commander Shi asks." Li Yi chuckled.
The dead people have passed away, but the living people will continue to live. People in the square began to become active, and many team members began to celebrate.
"Chief, these are the newly recruited team members. Over there are civilians who are willing to join our Ant Alliance team." Shi Qing led Yu Beichuan and walked all the way over.
"Hello, Chief!" The newly joined team members have already seen death before they have experienced war, but Yubeichuan and their respect for life have deeply infected them.
"Haha, it's him!" Everyone looked at Yu Beichuan curiously. When Yu Beichuan rushed into the underground garage to rescue them, the figure in the shadow of the sword was deeply engraved in their hearts.
"Hello, chief!" Now, we can finally meet this legendary figure.
"Very good," Yu Beichuan nodded. Now he is no longer the shy half-nerd he once was. He has begun to grow into a qualified leader.
