third rebirth

According to the scheduled plan, Weight Loss Mountain and a group of scientists from the Academy of Engineering will stay at the base. After Ling Chen and the others leave, the protective net updated to version 13.2 will be raised. At that time, it will be really impenetrable, and not a single mosquito can fly in.

The night before departure was no different than usual.The Cheetahs and the reserve team had another match, but they didn't fight until the end and forced a draw.Wu Ziyan shook Qin Ling's hand with the mechanical arm produced by the Academy of Engineering, and smiled at each other.

Jiang Cancan dragged Jiang Mu to the dining room, and wrote in advance on the event record board in the dining room with his dog crawling characters, "October [-]th, set off, we must win!" The last exclamation mark was especially huge.

Jialan chatted with Weight Loss Mountain for a long time, and after he came out, he went to the training ground to punch a few sets, collapsed on the floor covered in hot sweat, and stared at the chandelier on the ceiling in a daze.

The only three people left in Mayfly took out the only big group photo from the drawer, and carefully wiped it over and over again, so that every face that would never be seen again seemed to be as it was before.

Together with Ye Xiao, Ling Chen visited the base for the last time.

The black combat uniform jacket was casually draped over his body, and the corners of the clothes drew a gentle arc as he walked. Ling Chen put his arms around Ye Xiao's shoulders, and when the night wind blew, he instinctively pulled the person into his arms.

"I probably won't come back in the future."

Ye Xiao was holding a small straw lantern in his hand. Hearing what Ling Chen said, he was a little puzzled, "Why?"

"If you lose, you have no chance to come back. If you win, you will return to the military area." Ling Chen looked at the silhouette of the mountain rock in the darkness, and there was a slight uncertainty in his always firm voice, "Xiao Mao Mao, are you afraid? "

Ye Xiao shook his head, "I'm not afraid."

For Ye Xiao, the only thing he fears in this world is Ling Chen's death.Other than that, there's nothing to be afraid of.

"I'm afraid." Ling Chen smiled shortly, and there was something else in his rambling voice, "I'm afraid that I will lose, I'm afraid that everyone will never come back, and I'm afraid that even if I try my best, the situation will be lost." Still irreparable."

In front of people, he is Ling Chen who must remain as still as Mount Tai at all times, and the commander-in-chief who must be relaxed and calm while talking and laughing.He needs to convey a belief to everyone: We will win, we will win.

It wasn't until he faced Ye Xiao alone that he dared to express his uneasiness and uncertainty.He believed that Ye Xiao could understand and would not be affected.Sometimes he even felt that Ye Xiao was much more tenacious than him, as if he had settled on a goal and would never give up despite all difficulties.

Ye Xiao thought for a while, "We will win, with a 90.00% winning rate of [-]."

Ling Chen laughed and rubbed the back of his head, "Where did our little Maomao get the data, accurate to the decimal point?" At this point, he paused with a smile, and suddenly had a guess, "The person who calculated this probability , is the person who issued the task?"

Ye Xiao answered honestly, "Yes." This was the answer Noah gave when he asked Noah before.

Ling Chen was stunned - he could calculate the success rate of events that didn't happen...

He pretended to be relaxed, "What about me, what is the probability of me surviving?"

Ye Xiao happened to ask Noah this question, and he quickly answered, "90.00% [-]!"

"So high?" Ling Chen faintly thought of an answer, but he didn't ask any more questions, and continued to take Ye Xiaoman around the base. But after standing for less than 2 minutes, he was kicked out.

It wasn't until midnight that the entire base fell silent before Ling Chen and Ye Xiao returned to their rooms.Ye Xiao dug out a canned box from the cabinet, and put the little straw lantern in it - the little straw things Ling Chen made for him were all well preserved in it.

Ling Chen hugged his waist from behind, and kissed his exposed fair neck.

Ye Xiao put the tin can back into place, and just as he closed the cabinet door, Ling Chen pressed against the door.

Ling Chen was wearing military boots, his height was raised by 1.9 meters, and he completely hugged the shorter Ye Xiao in his arms.He gestured against her a few times, and his voice was a little ambiguous, "Come to kiss?"

Asking this question was a process, and before getting Ye Xiao's response, he kissed him first, sucking and biting Ye Xiao's lips deeply, without any tenderness at all, it was completely the most instinctive and primitive desire.

The red and hot ear tips were held in Ling Chen's mouth, and the hot air he exhaled penetrated along the cochlea, making Ye Xiao's whole head dizzy.He gasped for breath, his eyelashes were wet, "I want to take a bath..."

Ling Chen loosened his teeth, and hugged Ye Xiao up, "Let's go, brother, take the baby to take a bath."

At six o'clock the next morning, it was just dawn.

The fog in the mountains and forests has not dissipated. If you stand outside for a long time, you will be covered with dew.It's all about the temperament of resolute and vigorous, before getting ready to go, there are no fixed links such as mobilization meetings and exciting parting speeches, Ling Chen just turned on the communication channel and said seriously, "Brother, come back alive. "

Only the cool wind blows from all directions.

He smiled, "Everyone give a response?"

Soon, the sound of "beep beep" merged into one, and on the display screen, there were densely blinking dots.

When the beeps stopped, Ling Chen turned around and walked a few steps, looking at the Weight Loss Mountain standing at the gate of the base, his body straightened, his heels closed together with a "snap", and he gave a standard military salute.

In the morning mist, his figure was like a banner.

Weight Loss Mountain does not have a cane, and he is wearing a strict military uniform with neatly trimmed cuffs.The wrinkled fingers are close together, and the fingertips are attached to the temples, as majestic as a mountain.

It wasn't until the last armored vehicle disappeared into the morning mist that he lowered his arms, turned around and walked back to the base step by step, closing the gate.

There was a heavy rumbling sound, and the protective net was raised.

On the armored vehicle, Jiang Mu was checking the route. Jiang Cancan seized the time to talk to Jia Lan while the teams on both sides were not far away, but their conversation was really not nutritious.

"Wu Ziyan's newly installed mechanical arm is amazing, and it can be stretched and shortened! My real name is envious of Master Can!"

"After that, I dare not fight with You Long."

"I thought so too, but it doesn't matter, there are cheetahs!"

"Cheetah has the blessing of black technology from the Academy of Engineering."

Jiang Cancan scratched his head, "It seems... that we can only fight with the reserve team?"

Yang Xiao and Zhang Yi from the reserve team next to him rolled their eyes together.

In the end, Jialan ended the call first, "Stop talking, see you later."

Jiang Cancan hangs up the communication, bewildered, "Master Can, why do I feel that Jialan is different from before? She used to beep beep and I hung up her communication, but now she has lost her figure, and her words are really getting louder and louder." Less and less!"

Jiang Mu didn't know how to answer this question.It should be said that, except for Jiang Cancan and Ye Xiao, each of them is changing more or less.As things are, there is no room for self-preservation.

Jiang Cancan just muttered a few times, then forgot about it and sat down to chat with the reserve team.

After the two teams drove out of the base range, they separated.Jia Lan's team reached the destination before Ling Chen and the others.

It was late at night, Qin Ling came down the tree trunk with the night vision binoculars, squatted in the bushes, and sighed, "Not long ago, the Holy Tribunal came to attack the temporary base, and I brought my brothers to fight back."

But now, the people who attacked the temporary base were replaced by them.

Jialan squatted in the bushes, "Who isn't? I fought with the Holy Inquisitor's sniper upstairs in the main control room." She broke a piece of grass and bit it in her mouth, calming down, "Discuss, how to fight?" ?”

Wu Ziyan was straightforward, "Go up! Cannons open the way!"

Qin Ling shook his head, "Your family runs a mine? You don't need money for gunpowder?"

Several people argued for a while, and finally Jialan made a decisive decision, "We are familiar with the temporary base, bypassing places that are easy to be scanned by surveillance, entering from the southeast corner, and directly occupying their main control room!"

Ah Jiu, who was next to Mayfly, had been quiet and did not speak until now, "We can be a striker." Being a striker is mostly death.

Jialan glanced at him, and directly dismissed, "Save your life, and go with me to ask Jiayun why." She pulled up the strap of the jacket of the combat uniform, touched the cold barrel, and said in a deep voice, "According to the previous arrangement, one team will follow me, and the rest will stand by!"

"Yes!"

The night was quiet, and it was indeed as the intelligence said, the temporary base had been destroyed by the Holy Inquisition, and several positions that needed posting were empty.As they went deeper, Wu Ziyan couldn't help asking, "Did we really fall into a trap? Or are Jiayun and the others not here anymore?"

Jia Lan hid in the shadow of the corner, "Go to the main control room and you will find out." At this time, she completely lost the carelessness and impulsiveness in the past, and her eyes were as deep as a deep pool.

Everyone walked quickly through the night without looking at the map, and went to the main control room familiarly.

In the main control room, the person sitting in front of the monitoring screen yawned and said with emotion, "The weather is starting to get cold."

Zhao Lei, who was dozing off next to him, forcibly pulled himself together, stood up and stretched, "I'll get you a cup of coffee, Brother Shi, do you want it?"

"Yes, no sugar, thanks."

"Row."

The kettle was placed on the table by the window, Zhao Lei opened the cups, took out the instant coffee powder from the box, tore open the package, and poured half of a cup into it.He raised his eyes inadvertently, and found a rope shadow swaying in front of him.

Thinking that he was dazed from sleepiness, he raised the back of his hand and rubbed his eyes, his heart beat suddenly, blood rushed to his head, he took two steps back, and hissed, "Enemy attack!"

At the same time, Jialan hung the rope, and with the help of inertia, directly broke in through the open window!

While rolling on the spot, Jialan pointed a gun at each of the two people in the main control room, and warned in a solemn voice, "Don't move."

"Reduce... reduce school?"

She stayed in the temporary base for so long before, so it was normal for her to be recognized. After Qin Ling and the others came in through the window, Jialan stood up, "It's me, I don't want to hurt anyone, I just want to ask you a few questions."

While speaking, she cautiously scanned the screens of the instrument one by one, making sure that no one else was disturbed, before continuing to ask, "Is Jiayun still here?"

Zhao Lei looked at the black muzzle of the gun and raised his hands, "Yes."

Shi Song looked at Jia Lan and Wu Ziyan next to each other, and suddenly asked, "Are you on the side with Commander Ling and Professor Bai?"

Qin Ling also held the gun, nodded and admitted, "Yes."

Shi Song thought for a few seconds, and said affirmatively, "I can answer whatever you want to ask, but can you not fire? I mean, don't fire at the base?"

Wu Ziyan found that this situation was somewhat different from what they expected, "What do you mean?"

Shi Song smiled wryly, "Some time ago, the base was besieged by the Holy Order, and there were casualties... how should I put it?" He smiled softly, but the smile was more bitter than crying, "I used to live in a room with nine people, but now I am the only one left. People live."

Zhao Lei's eyes were also red.

"We don't really know why after General Minus led us to rebel and stationed here, the old general and Ling commanded them to leave again, and the two sides became enemies. But I believe that you should have a reason to leave."

After Jialan fell silent, he withdrew his gun.

In the main control room, the equipment made a "sizzling" sound of operation, and the tense atmosphere dissipated. Wu Ziyan's eyes fell on a pack of instant coffee powder divided into two parts for brewing, and he asked, "Has there been any supplies from the base recently?"

Zhao Lei shook his head and said affirmatively, "No. I was in charge of logistics before, and I was temporarily dispatched to be on duty in the past two days. The base has not been supplied with supplies for a long time, and the arsenal is almost bottomed out. Even the upstairs of the main control room The machine gun crew is also out of ammunition."

Qin Ling glanced at Jialan, and asked first, "What about General Jia?"

Shi Song replied, "Since the siege of the Holy Tribunal, the door of General Jiang's office has been closed, and he hasn't shown much." The base was closed, and after the old general and Ling commanded them to leave, we didn't know what happened, how to take the next road, and whether we could go on."

He is asking for an answer.

Jia Lan said solemnly, "We will give you an explanation after the matter is over."

Shi Song showed a smile on his face, and silently gave a military salute.

Jialan raised her hand in return.

Leaving from the main control room, Wu Ziyan said with emotion, "I was similar to that brother before. I was very confused and confused. I didn't know what to believe and who to listen to. What is true and what is false, or who is right and who is right?" Wrong, I don't know who is loyal and who is traitor.

I now believe that the torrent of the times does exist, and ordinary people like us are just being pushed forward by this torrent.As for right and wrong, no one can tell. "

Qin Ling cooperated with him in chatting, "What happened next?"

"Later I discovered that people still need to be more noble, broad-minded, and detached. For example, I now take saving the world as my mission. Don't laugh, I really think so!"

Jialan turned her head and nodded calmly, "This method is good!" Because the goal is clear, there will be no hesitation.

So is she.

Walking all the way to the floor where Jiayun's office is located, it was unimpeded.On the way, I met a few patrolling soldiers, and they met each other, but neither side made a sound.In the end, they gave each other a military salute, pretending that they didn't see it, and let them go.

Wu Ziyan was stunned, confused, "Just now the soldier with the gun clearly saw me and recognized me, but he immediately looked away and pretended not to see me? What's going on?"

Jialan's footsteps were quick and light, "Because the hearts of the people in the temporary base have dispersed. Gathering people's hearts means trusting a person so much that he is willing to take the point of his sword as the direction of his heart, and at the same time put his own Put your ideals on it, and you will never regret it. Or it is that everyone has the same pursuit, the same belief, and is willing to shed their blood for it.

But the temporary base does not occupy either of these now.Just like what I heard in the main control room just now, the soldiers at the lower level have become confused and suspicious, which means that Jiayun no longer trusts them. "

The door to the office was empty.Jialan stopped talking and stood in front of the door for a few seconds. After her chest rose and fell repeatedly, she knocked on the door with her fingers.

The crowd held their breaths.

After a while, with a "ding", the door lock opened.Jialan turned the doorknob, opened the door and walked in.

Wu Ziyan was surprised - he had already loaded his gun and was ready to break through the line of fire.I didn't expect it to be so peaceful.

Jianyun's office is very spacious, with few furnishings, a set of wooden desks and chairs, a dark cabinet, and a bright three-dimensional sand table.At this time, the thick curtains were drawn, and the office was dimly lit. Jia Lan reached out and pressed the switch.

After a short "pop", the office lights up.Jia Yun sat upright on the chair, raised his eyelids, "You really are here."

Compared with before, the twilight was already seen in his eyes, dull and dull.Although the habit he had developed over the years made him sit upright with a calm expression, his sharp aura had already disappeared.

"Well, here we come." Jialan stood there leaning on the barrel of the gun, and did not come any closer.

The eyes of the two met in mid-air, Jiayun closed his eyes first, and his voice was unspeakably hoarse, "It's just the winner and the loser. Either it will fall into the hands of the Holy Tribunal, or it will fall into your hands, it doesn't make any difference. "

He looked at Jialan who was standing at the door, and sighed, "If you want to kill him or whatever, you can do whatever you want."

Jialan's eyes were fixed on Jiayun, and after listening to these words, the fingers holding the barrel of the gun became tighter and tighter, and in the end, they were so forceful that they convulsed.

Suddenly, she let go of her strength, grabbed the barrel of the gun and strode towards Jiayun.The calf-length military boots had thick soles, and they made dull footsteps on the floor.

Walking quickly to the desk, Jialan put her right foot on the desk with a "thump", raised the gun in her hand, and pointed the gun at Jiayun, "Winner or loser?" She sneered, Eyebrows are as sharp as a blade, "In your eyes, is it as simple as winning the king and losing the bandit?"

Jianyun lowered his eyelids, and the muscles at the corners of his mouth drooped slightly.After a while, he opened his eyes, looking straight at Jialan, and asked softly, "Otherwise?"

Jialan's nose fluttered, her inconspicuous Adam's apple twitched, and she sneered, "I realize that I don't understand you at all."

Jiayun didn't speak, and the old monk seemed to be in sedation.

At this moment, Jialan suddenly couldn't distinguish her own mood.Pictures kept popping up in my mind, but the face of the father in my memory was already blurred.

From Jia Yun's attitude, she clearly realized that Jia Yun really thought that she was not wrong, but she was actually thinking that Jia Yun would regret or repent?

Will not.She remembered what Weight Loss Mountain had said, that the man she called her father had been extremely determined since he was a teenager and rarely wavered.

"What about you, Jialan, you say I'm wrong, but you firmly believe that you must be right?" Jiayun sat on the chair, completely unaffected by the gun pointed at him, and said in a logical manner, "History is always written by the winners. I failed and you won, so you asserted that I was wrong. I have no rebuttal and can only admit it. What's wrong with winning?

The only thing I think I did wrong is that after pulling the Holy Order into the game, I failed to kill them before the Holy Order reacted, so that the Holy Order came to me like a clown.Falling short, falling to this point, this is my only mistake. "

Jialan has completely calmed down. She held the gun firmly in her hand, and said in a low voice, "Grandpa asked me to tell you so that I can take care of myself. I want to tell you that in the future, I will support Jiajia."

Jianyun's pupils shrunk slightly, and he smiled inexplicably.

"Then you want to deal with me? Shoot me on the spot?"

Jia Lan didn't answer, but looked at Ah Jiu, "Brother Chen once promised you that he would find the person behind Silver Blade and kill him."

Ah Jiu was so thin that he could no longer support the heavy safety gear. He wore thin clothes and shook his head weakly, "I made this request just to give my brothers and myself an explanation."

But even if it is found, the dead will never come back.

He looked at Jiayun, as if looking at the past, lost his mind for a while, Ah Jiu said in relief, "Everything has an end."

Jialan pursed her lips tightly and nodded.She looked at Jiayun again, "Shooting on the spot is too easy for you, and it is not worthy of the mistakes you made. You will report your crimes in a military court and give everyone an explanation. Just As you said, the winner is king, and the loser is Kou."

Second District.

The armored vehicle was driving among the mountains, it was already dark, and Jiang Mu was looking for a place to camp.Jiang Cancan hummed a nursery rhyme learned from a group of professors in the engineering school, and identified the direction.

In the rear compartment, Ye Xiao was skillfully tying a bandage on his right wrist with a toffee in his mouth.Hearing the beep from the communicator, he clicked on it, and was stunned with just one glance.

"In my life, I have been lucky enough to have the opportunity to see the sun rise and the moon set and the stars shine, to see the vastness of the world, to have a brother who can be handed over to me, to laugh and talk together, to taste sweet and sour, and to know the cold and warm. pass."

As soon as he loosened his hand, the tightened white bandage fell apart and fell to his feet.

Jiang Mu's voice came over, "Brother Chen, there's news from Jialan. Just now, the three of Mayfly...gone."
