On the ice sheet and in the mountain col, there were several "bang" sounds, and a few points of light slowly rose, and finally exploded, lighting up the sky.

Those black figures were like wolves running out of the jungle, moving quickly and silently.

The light reflected their shadows, which meant they were exposed, but no one retreated, and there was no way to retreat. The defenders hiding among the ruins had already prepared traps for the "wolves" and installed them.

"Shotgun", just waiting for them to fall into the trap.

Seven hundred meters!

Five hundred meters!

One hundred meters!

I don’t know who gave the order, and I don’t remember who fired the first shot. In short, that night, the lights on the other side of the mountain kept flashing and the explosions were like thunder, which lasted for several hours before stopping.

Zhang Miao listened carefully, but she never looked back. She silently helped replace the energy core of the snowmobile, and then went back to sleep. With all this noise, Zhang Miao began to doubt for the first time whether her persistence was right.

wrong.

For more than ten years, she has had a question.

If Zheng Beichuan and the others were really enemies, why didn't Zhang Fengyu not allow her to take action?

Zhang Miao has asked many people this question.

Most of the answers I got were similar.

It's nothing more than saying "the time has not come yet" and taking the overall situation into consideration.

Zhang Miao was naturally uncomfortable hearing such an answer. So gradually, the contact between Zhang Miao, Zhang Fengyu, and Zi Zixin became much less, and they each had their own things to be busy with, and there was no

Taking into account Zhang Miao's changes in mood over the years.

Because she had personally experienced the fall of Xiongan No. 1 Shelter, Zhang Miao would not really be deceived by anyone into successfully brainwashing her into accepting the nonsense that they made a helpless choice for the future destiny of mankind.

What Zhang Miao is thinking now is that Zheng Beichuan also had countless opportunities to kill her, Zhang Fengyu and the others, but he didn't. He even accepted Yougege's lobbying and easily handed over a lot of rights, which was likely to be ignored.

posture. The people who are chasing him now are obviously not the people Zhang Miao knows. Although they also want revenge, they will not let themselves use such despicable methods.

"The next work" is Zi Zixin's way of saying it.

Zhang Miao never quite understood it.

Revenge is about being happy, so why do you have to put shackles on yourself and constrain your personality?

Ye Zixin’s answer at the time was: “If it was just revenge, we could have done it twenty years ago, why wait until today?”

"What's that for?"

"To restore order." Ye Zixin replied.

"Is order really that important?" Zhang Miao was puzzled.

Zi Xin solemnly said: "It's very important. It's more important than anything else. It can even be said... Everything in the universe will inevitably develop in a worse and worse direction, but the order is different. It may be the only way that human beings can

Something that violates the basic laws of the universe and is controlled by your own will, of course, only if you believe in its power."

Zhang Miao asked again: "Then the laws of survival that things in nature follow are not order?"

Zi Xin shook his head and said: "No, that's not called order, and it can't even be viewed with wisdom. Although we often laugh at ourselves with the so-called 'truth' that exists in nature, or satirize various bad habits in human society, we have overlooked one point.

, similar to the closed ecology on the islands of Madagascar, they themselves are the result of natural selection, and all forms of existence do not possess intelligent abstract thinking. In other words, even if the ocean is the starting point and end of life besides whales, it does not represent whales.

In its limited life, it understands the meaning of its existence? They are very smart, but they may not be able to think. Thinking is a very strange thing. It makes life shine and emit the light of wisdom, thus giving birth to how to compete with the universe itself.

Courage is the most valuable thing."

Over the years, Zhang Miao knew that Zi Xin had changed a lot, especially after she started running around with You Gege, and her speech became difficult to understand.

Zhang Miao, who seemed to understand, only understood a little bit.

Don't be arrogant and arrogant, let alone belittle yourself.

Human beings may be fragile, but they are never humble.

After gently taking a deep breath and making a cat-like nasal noise, Zhang Miao was finally able to sleep peacefully.

On the other side of the mountain, the noise and bustle are coming to an end.

The "wolf pack" composed of thirty-nine people showed amazing unity and terrifying combat power even when they were ambushed. Originally they had an advantage in numbers, and the party who set up the ambush thought that the battle could be resolved in just ten minutes, so at most their own side could not.

One or two people were lost, but the result is...

When the shadow retrieved the long knife from a corpse, there were no teammates behind him.

One hundred versus thirty-nine, the outcome turned out to be a miserable victory with one person surviving.

Such "victory" seems to be more appropriately described as "failure".

Shadow himself was injured, his life support device was destroyed, and the vital sign monitor constantly reminded him that the temperature of his exoskeleton was decreasing. If he could not find shelter as soon as possible, he would freeze to death here.

But the shadow was indifferent. He walked aside and sat down on a protruding rock, holding a long knife that had been cracked inch by inch in both hands. This knife was given to him by his master. It is said that it was passed through a knife more than a thousand years ago.

A mysterious craftsman borrowed meteorite iron and made it, named "Lie Feng".

The sword is three feet three feet long and the blade is two inches wide. Even without the moonlight, there is still a cold glow, and the wind blows by and makes a whimpering sound...

Shadow often couldn't sit still until a tall figure came behind him.

"Why don't you go back?" The figure's face appeared, and it was Zheng Beichuan.

What makes people even more uneasy and shocked is that Zheng Beichuan is neither wearing a full-coverage exoskeleton nor cold-proof clothing. He is just wearing a navy blue dragon-patterned outfit, standing like a hidden cultivator.

Behind the shadow.

He stood up and looked at Zheng Beichuan in surprise, then clenched his fists and said in a trembling voice: "Student is incompetent. After a fierce battle, he actually broke the hundred gale force troops that you personally handed over to me. Student..."

Before he finished speaking, Zheng Beichuan's hand was already on Shadow's shoulder.

Above the sky, the flares slowly fell, but the shadow was always shrouded in a hazy shadow.

This may be the origin of his name.

But Zheng Beichuan called out his real name and said, "Jin Zhong, do you still remember how the teacher told you about the word 'dignity'?"

Shadow team leader Xue Jinzhong trembled when he heard this, and then said in a deep voice: "Students remember."

Zheng Beichuan Wei

He smiled and said, "Tell me about it."

Xue Jinzhong replied: "The so-called dignity does not mean caring about personal gains and losses for the sake of self-respect. It is just the dignity of a coward. The true dignity should be the dignity of a warrior when an individual knows how to put aside his self-esteem and seek dignity for everyone."

Zheng Beichuan nodded: "Since ancient times, there have been many generous and tragic people, but I don't like their selfish behavior of always willing to die to express their ambitions, or simply to die for the sake of a good personal reputation. In my opinion, it has a real impact on ancient and modern times, both at home and abroad."

Those who have changed the world are often those heroes who will be criticized by future generations after their death, and even make bad comments about those scholars! Have they ever chosen to give up because what they want to do will ruin their reputation and self-esteem?

Do you rush to explain because others' evaluations are unfair to you? No, the real strong person comes from the strength of the heart! And the strength of the heart also requires the person to know how to think deeply and self-discipline... So... Jin Zhong, not only do you

To live, you must inherit the will of everyone who died here today, do you understand?"

After hearing what Zheng Beichuan said, Xue Jinzhong felt ashamed.

But he did not become depressed anymore. Instead, he sheathed the long sword, cupped his hands, knelt on one knee and said, "Students, please remember your teacher's teachings!"

Zheng Beichuan smiled with satisfaction, but seeing the corpses strewn all over the field, the mottled battlefield, and the shocking situation, Zheng Beichuan's eyes were still a bit colder.

'Niyun Pavilion has already taken action...Old Fan...you have to hold on.' Thinking of this, Zheng Beichuan stopped staying. He said to Xue Jinzhong: "The road ahead should be much smoother. You can take it."

I'll give you a token and go directly to Sichuan. When you get in touch with Mr. Li's son Li Yutang at No. 3 Shelter in Shuzhong, be sure to tell him not to act rashly!"

Xue Jinzhong was shocked when he heard this, and immediately stood up and said solemnly: "Yes, the student understands."

"Okay, then set off as soon as possible. You don't have to worry about me. When I get to the next place, there will naturally be other people coming to see me off. Just concentrate on doing your own thing."

Although Xue Jinzhong understood that even if he stayed, he might not be able to play a big role. He thought that this farewell would most likely be an eternal farewell. He couldn't help but feel his eyes welling up. He took a step back, knelt on his knees, and bowed deeply to Zheng Beichuan.

It can be regarded as repaying the teacher's kindness.

Zheng Beichuan didn't know that countless lives would be lost from today to the end of the storm, but the curtain changed and he couldn't step down.

"Go, don't delay." Zheng Beichuan waved his hand, turned and left.

When Xue Jinzhong looked up in the direction of Zheng Beichuan, Zheng Beichuan had already disappeared.

Although Xue Jinzhong knew very well how terrifying Zheng Beichuan's strength was, he didn't have many opportunities to witness it with his own eyes. Now that he saw that Zheng Beichuan was still as mysterious and powerful as before, he couldn't help but feel at ease.

He stood up and determined the direction without further delay.

In the mountain col, on the ice field, in the battlefield more than a thousand meters away, more than a hundred corpses were buried in the biting cold wind...

…

March 9th

Mao'er was dressing Fan Yuanrong. The left side of her face was bruised and slightly swollen.

But it was not Fan Yuanrong who beat him, but Maoer who made a mistake and was taught a lesson by Fu Zicheng. That day, bad news came from the hospital that Li Douxing failed to save him in the end. When he heard the news, Fu Zicheng was in a trance for a long time.

, when he came back to his senses, he saw the cat wandering around in the red lacquer pavilion unruly as usual, so the cat was beaten.

After Fan Yuanrong found out about this, he symbolically went to Fu Zicheng to scold him, but in fact Fan Yuanrong felt even more uncomfortable.

He and Li Douxing had been friends for half a century. Now that Li Douxing was dead and Zheng Beichuan was not at home, Fu Zicheng was the only one left, which really made him feel what it meant to be lonely.
