Bulwark of Light

Chapter 138 Sisters (2)

The breeze was blowing.

The dead leaves on the small barren mountains were swept up by the wind. In the late autumn, most of the air was dry, and the moisture in the leaves had dried up. These leaves were tangled dryly and made a crisp rustling sound.

A few withered leaves were crunchy and patted on Song Ci’s cheek.

And the piercing crows echoing from the mountains reminded him that—

It was all true.

Little Land.

Really back.

Song Ci had thought more than once that if one day Xiao Lu came back… and met again, what would he say.

But at this moment, the original expectations are useless, and my head is blank. I can’t even remember a single word of the words I rehearsed in front of the mirror in the past.

The mountain top at the end of autumn and the flying dead leaves, this picture is frozen, filled with a touch of sadness.

No one spoke, so the top of the mountain was silent.

The red-haired woman kept her movements unchanged and bowed slowly to the wooden monument. During the whole process, there was only the rustling sound of dead leaves swept across the top of the mountain.

After the worship, Nan Jin picked up the scabbard and got up. She lowered her eyes, held down the handle of the knife under the windbreaker, and walked slowly towards the coming time.

“Borrowed.”

An emotionless voice.

The lady didn’t move, she stopped in front of her younger sister, looking at the face full of stubbornness, her eyes were full of herself back then.

“It’s been ten years…”

Lu Nanzhi greeted softly, “I thought you wouldn’t come back this year.”

” Is there any difference?”

Nan Jin raised his head, “coming back and not coming back, dead and alive…is there a difference for you?”

“You are mine younger sister.”

Mrs. spoke again, but her voice was interrupted the next second.

“I’m not…” Nan Jin shook his head, “I erased my surname and cut off contact with you from my first name. From the day I left Dadu, I was not your younger sister. I’m done.”

“But you are still from the Lu Family.” Lu Nanzhi frowned, trying her best to keep her tone calm and gentle.

“Yes… the last name is erased, it doesn’t mean anything, of course I’m still from the Lu Family, because I’ve been investigating the Lion Lane tragedy for ten years. I still remember Lao Lu in a pool of blood. I still remember the scene where the alley was surrounded by the audience, and I still remember the grief and anger that all this brought me. I searched all over the Eastern Continent, looking for the truth, looking for evidence, just because I belonged to the Lu Family.” Nan Jin Raising her head, her eyes were full of gray anger, she asked coldly, word by word, “But, you, yes?”

Lu Nanzhi dumbfounded.

She opened her mouth, choked with a thousand words, but at the moment she couldn’t say a word.

“I once had such an elder sister. She is an unattainable genius in everyone’s eyes. She has an extraordinary talent, a courage that is one in ten thousand, and countless virtues.”

Nan Jin said slowly: “I once regarded her as an idol in my heart and tried my best to be such a good person… But then I found out that I was wrong. All this is a superficial illusion. , she doesn’t deserve my respect.”

“After Lao Lu died, what did you do?”

Nan Jin asked coldly and forcefully: “After the fall of the Lu Family , who is the biggest winner? Do you know what is being said on the streets? Even a ten-year-old child can understand the ‘truth’, can’t you see it? You are my elder sister, how can you… Together with the Zhao clan who devoured the flag!”

After saying this, she turned slightly, passed Lu Nanzhi, and walked down the mountain alone.

From the moment Nan Jin’s anger erupted, Mrs. didn’t say a word.

She fell silent.

Quiet and dull like a wooden man.

Nan Jin’s every question was like a bullet, hitting her heart, and she just stood silently and endured it all.

Standing on the last stone step at the top of the mountain, just in time to see the monument of the father.

“Madam… are you okay?”

After hearing these words, Song Ci’s expression was very complicated.

Lu Nanzhi waved her hand, indicating that she was fine. From start to finish, her expression didn’t change much, because the attack just now was nothing, and words that were more intense than this were even more punishing. She has experienced the offensive of her heart… But if someone carefully observes the expression on the lady’s face, they will find that when Nan Jin decided to leave, there was a moment of sadness in her eyes, but it was quickly covered up.

“It’s a good thing if you’re willing to go back to Dadu.” She gently took a deep breath, her voice a little hoarse, “You and Nan Jin are old friends, go after her, don’t let her just be like this Let’s go.”

“…Yes.”

The crow sighed in his heart, and he ran towards the bottom of the mountain.

On the desolate hilltop, Lu Nanzhi was the only one left.

She came to the father’s grave, took a small bottle of wine from her bosom, and poured it slowly in front of the wooden monument. The dead leaves were wet, and there was a faint sound of wind roaring. When the lion sobers up, he uses a little less, part of it is kept in Song Ci’s hands, and the other part is collected by Lu Nanzhi. He only pours some of it every year during tomb-sweeping worship.

The wooden tablet engraved with “No Name Lu Cheng” turned bright red after drinking the lion sober.

That is the spiritual element burning logic and rules.

It looked like someone opened their eyes and looked at Lu Nanzhi quietly.

“father…Did you see that? Nan Jin is back and grown up.”

The lady opened her mouth softly with a three-pointed soft smile on her face. : “But she’s still the same as before, stubborn, stubborn… In fact, I’m quite happy for her. It’s not easy to leave for ten years without being changed by the environment.”

“She still can’t understand what I’ve done.”

“Can’t understand…what you and I are working hard for.”

“But I believe that that day It will come soon.”

Lu Nanzhi took a sip of the lion to sober up, her cheeks were three-pointed crimson, and fine beads of sweat appeared on her forehead.

“Another year has passed, and everyone is struggling to find the ‘key’… Without the ‘key’, the Conference Hall in Deepwater may be overturned at any time, the people in the Conference Hall , and I dare not show my true face.” She said with a smile: “Sometimes I myself doubt, is there really a ‘secret key’ this thing? Will all this be a big lie?”

The red light of the stone tablet flashes like a blink of an eye.

No one can give her the answer.

“Just at the last meeting… someone said he had found the ‘key’ and delivered it to my city…”

Lu Nanzhi laughed in a low voice, Said: “It’s just that the ‘Red Gate’ didn’t respond, and that 031’s words are not particularly reliable… But it doesn’t matter, this is not the first time that I have returned with hope and disappointment… We can still persist for many years, many years, but The deep sea is evolving too fast, I’m afraid there is not much time left.”

Only in front of this wooden monument, Madam looks like a little girl.

She can speak her heart out, and she can have no scruples.

“By the way, there is another news that is very important…”

“The vacant seats are about to be nominated.”

said During this remark, there was no joy in Lu Nanzhi’s eyes, only sarcasm, “Zhao Xilai can’t stand it anymore, as long as I agree to the implementation of the Awakening Act, I will be able to win the seat of parliament in Dadu.”

She Take the courage to speak seriously to your father.

“But…I don’t want to agree.”
