Mountain and Sea Treasures

Chapter 868 For the rest of my life, without you (finale)

"I think funerals should be equal." I said, "During this operation, Comrade Liu Hanqiu did not forget his oath, and risked his life to stop William until he died. This is enough for a funeral. I He also agreed to his last words and let him be buried with Lao Yan."

Changkong didn't seem to expect that I would speak, and looked at me full of shock.

I shook my head at him, motioning him not to speak.

At this moment, he is very emotional, it's fine if he doesn't speak, but once he speaks, it will not be conducive to winning Liu Hanqiu's funeral.

Although I don't like Liu Hanqiu, his oath at the last moment is deeply imprinted in my mind, and I think he deserves a solemn funeral.

The leader in the suit didn't seem to expect that I would speak, and gave me a surprised look. Just as I was about to argue, he waved his hand: "Young people have young people's views, so I won't get involved."

So simple?
I blinked my eyes, I couldn't believe it, but the sky beside me gave me a grateful look.

Minister Hou smiled slightly: "Now, we are going to talk about the fourth point."

I cheered up immediately, the meaning of Minister Hou looking at me just now was too obvious, so I knew that this matter was related to me.

Minister Hou coughed: "This is the application submitted by the late Comrade Liu Hanqiu to the organization before leaving Yanjing."

He made a fool of himself, but it suddenly occurred to me that Liu Hanqiu said that he had a gift left in Yanjing waiting for me to come back to pick it up.At the time, I thought his words were strange, but now that I think about it, he must have known how to rescue 701, so he was ready to die.

It's a little uncomfortable to think so, but I'm even more curious about the gift he left me.

Minister Hou said softly: "He submitted an application for the re-identification of 701 membership."

"What do you mean?" I was a little impatient.

Minister Hou looked at me, motioned me to be calm, and then said: "Comrade Liu Hanqiu believes that when 701 was founded, each member had to abandon his identity because the country was not strong at that time. The country is not yet able to protect those who have paid silently in the hidden battlefield, so this method is used to hide them."

"But now that our country is strong and prosperous, 701 is also the most important weapon of the country. It should not be hidden in the dark, but should stand in the light and let the whole world know that there is such a department. They pursue the mission of "defending the national treasure." "Slogan, they 'promise the country with their own body, no complaints and no regrets'. What's more, the whole world should know that the humiliating era of burning the Old Summer Palace has long passed, and China is now a great country standing on the land of China. If you have the strength to protect your own national treasure, you will even have the strength to recover the lost national treasure!"

My tears couldn't stop in an instant, I looked at Minister Hou, his mouth was still opening and closing.It is said that Liu Hanqiu suggested that the members of 701 should restore their identities and treatment. The martyrs who died in the past should be buried in Babaoshan Cemetery in their true colors. As for Lao Yan, he should be buried in the cemetery with the most solemn funeral. of glory.

I don't know if I have already cried out, I only know that my eyes are blurred, and I can't even hear what Minister Hou said later, I only know that we are no longer a group of people without identity, nor Then there are people who have to sacrifice in obscurity.

Old Smoke, did you see that?

I shouted silently in my heart, finally, 701 can exist aboveboard, no one will misunderstand that we have no need to exist, and no one will look at us with colored glasses.

"Chang'an!" Minister Hou suddenly called out.

I wiped my tears and looked at him, his gentle voice came: "Lao Yan and Liu Hanqiu's funeral is scheduled for three days later, and William will be executed on the same day, what do you think?"

I nodded, but I couldn't say anything anymore.

I didn't realize until I got out of Minister Hou's office that the meeting didn't even mention the matter of the cold corpse and the golden jade clothes. I was about to turn around and ask, when Chang Kong walked up to me: "Do you want to ask?" Yuyi, right?"

I nodded, wondering how he knew?
He smiled and said: "The only thing that has not been dealt with in 701 is this matter, but you don't have to worry, the jade clothes are now in the hands of the national archaeological team, and they should be placed in the Hubei Provincial Museum when they complete the restoration. custom."

I thanked him, and he patted me on the shoulder and said, "From now on, 701 and 303 will be real brother departments!"

After finishing speaking, he passed me and left first. I looked at his back and left here after a while.

Three days passed in a blink of an eye. In the morning, I was dressed in black with a white flower on my chest, and I was driven by Yazai. Our group from 701 arrived at Babaoshan early.

All members of 303 have also arrived, but there is no tension between us in the past. Although we will not suddenly become intimate, I believe it is only a matter of time.

Neither Lao Yan nor Liu Hanqiu had corpses, so they were full of clothes.

Compared with Liu Hanqiu, the procedures at 701 are more complicated, because there are still a large number of remains of comrades who died before being hastily relocated here.

Some of them were sacrificed outside, and even those without corpses would have their names engraved on the tombstones.

At nine o'clock in the morning, the farewell ceremony for Lao Yan and Liu Hanqiu officially began!
Chang Kong and I stood in the forefront, holding the photos of the deceased, and solemnly saluted towards their tomb, and then we sent flowers one by one.

No one spoke in the whole scene, they gave the scene full respect.

After the firing ceremony, people from 303 stayed in front of Liu Hanqiu's tomb for a while before leaving.

We stayed here because we still wanted to watch the relocation of the remains of the 701 martyrs.

I sat next to Lao Yan's tomb, choking softly: "Lao Yan, look, we are not the same now as before. The blood shed by you and your ancestors has forged our achievements today! Sleep well, this is the country The highest honor to you, may you sleep peacefully."

"By the way, William has been shot." I touched Lao Yan's tombstone and muttered slowly: "Once William died, the William family would be disbanded. Recently, 701 is trying its best to recover various national treasures lost overseas, such as the Old Summer Palace The animal heads of the zodiac, the flying paintings of Dunhuang, many overseas Chinese compatriots and patriots are helping us, and the spirit of 701 has infected the whole world. Naturally, the road to recovering national treasures cannot be smooth all the way, but it is always getting better and better Yes, I believe that in the future, if the Chinese people want to look at the national treasure, they don’t need to travel across the ocean.”

I talked to Lao Yan for a long time, and I didn't go back to 701 in Yazai's car until all the remains were transferred.

"Changan, you are back."

I was about to go back to the dormitory to rest, when Lao Xia grabbed me with a look of excitement.

I rubbed my forehead and asked him what's wrong?
He handed me a stack of materials in his hand, and said excitedly: "The big tomb is definitely a rare big tomb in this world, Chang'an, hurry up and take a look."

Tomb?

I glanced at him curiously, then flipped through the information, and my expression changed instantly——the tomb in the white clouds, the tomb that Lao Yan made an appointment to visit with me.

"Where is it?" As soon as I closed the file, my exhaustion disappeared.

Lao Xia pointed to the map and said that in the north, deep in the Greater Khingan Mountains, according to the information collected so far, this tomb is the origin of all the secrets of longevity, and it is closely related to the Afang Palace in Lishan where the four girls lived.

I took the map over, and immediately Brick looked at Yazai and the others, and they instantly understood what I meant.

"10 minutes!" I dropped three words, and quickly went back to the dormitory to pack up my things. After everyone gathered, we got out of the 701. The off-road vehicle was still parked there, without wasting any time.

"Chang'an."

I was about to get into the car when Miss Si's voice came from behind, I turned around immediately and saw her walking towards me with a small package on her back.

"Are you... leaving?" I asked softly.

Although I have prepared for it, but at this moment, I will inevitably feel a little depressed.

The fourth girl hummed: "I am different from you after all. Because of fate, we have such an experience. In the future, there will be no me, no old smoke, and you must stick to your original intention."

I looked at her, then hugged her uncontrollably, and asked with a choked voice, "If we meet again one day, will you still recognize me with gray hair and wrinkled face?"

"Let's leave this answer to when we meet." The fourth girl smiled at me, then turned around and slowly disappeared into the moonlight.

I looked at her back, until she completely disappeared, the dull pain in my heart became more sensitive.

Finally, I took a deep breath, got into the car, and faced the concerned eyes of a car, I waved my hand vigorously: "Let's go at 701!"
