Longmen Memoirs

Chapter 54 Letters

The vision was shaking violently and blurred, flames swept through, and roars and roars filled the ears.

Buildings collapsed and the streets were in shambles.

The black steel car rolled over to the side of the road, and its body burst into flames.

The one-eyed wolf slowly lowered his head in shock. The crossbow arrow penetrated Black Steel's uniform, and scarlet blood penetrated. The figure in front of him moved, and the crossbow fell to the ground.

He opened his mouth to say something, but a series of crossbow arrows struck him. His thin body flew up like a rag in the arrows with kinetic energy and fell heavily to the ground.

Meaningless whispers came from his mouth, and blood choked his words.

"Little wolf!!!"

The grizzly bear roared like a wounded beast, and he rushed towards the one-eyed wolf like a madman.

"Go away!"

The enemies along the way were knocked away by him arbitrarily. Losing his mind, he threw away the big shield in his hand. The crows were shouting loudly, but he could no longer hear clearly.

There was only a buzzing in his ears, and all the grizzly bear could see was the one-eyed wolf lying in a pool of blood.

The sharp arrow penetrated the grizzly bear's knee, and the forward body suddenly fell down. He gritted his teeth and continued to move forward.

He just rushed to the side of the one-eyed wolf, covered in bruises and wounds, and his back was full of incoming arrows.

He knelt down weakly in front of the one-eyed wolf and picked up the sniper's body. His hands were stained with blood. The grizzly bear looked at the arrows on the sniper's chest, panicking like a child.

"Don't be afraid, I'm coming, I'm coming..."

The sniper raised his hand and pushed the grizzly bear.

"Go, go."

The grizzly bear shook his head and suddenly grinned.

"I'll be with you."

The sniper's hand hung down softly, and his blue pupils gradually turned gray.

The sky was flooded with arrows and spell light, flooding them.

Crow couldn't bear to tilt his head and clenched the only short knife full of gaps in his hand.

The magician's body was nailed to the ground with several long knives and had long since lost its vitality. Among the endless enemies, only Crow and Chen Mo, who was seriously injured by him, were left hiding in the wreckage of the building.

Enemies keep coming.

The sky was gloomy and gray, as if it was the end of the road.

"They're dead, right?" Chen Mo weakly held Crow's hand and asked.

"We're all going to die."

Crow put down the knife. She did not shed tears, but calmly buried Chen Mo's body in the ruins of the building. Her movements were fast and steady, and there was silence in her amber pupils, without the fear and panic before death.

"What are you going to do! No...don't do anything stupid!"

"Is that considered stupid?"

She answered with a soft smile. Darkness obscured her vision. In the gap, the figure of a crow picking up a knife crossed the ruins, followed by continuous explosions and shouts.

Until it slowly subsided, everything gradually became quiet and dead.

Like dying.

Chen Mo suddenly opened his eyes. The night was rich and peaceful, and the bedside lamp was turned on.

It was three o'clock in the evening.

Light snow falls outside the closed window, and the electric stove emits warm heat.

He had a nightmare, dreaming that the weird team was surrounded and all members were killed or injured, but he was hidden in the ruins by crows and survived by luck.

After several minutes, he finally calmed down and breathed a long sigh of relief.

He reached out and opened the bedside table drawer, took out a few letters placed inside, and unfolded them under the dim light.

My fingers pulled out the letter paper. The letter was sent from Colombia.

[Everything is fine, brother.

There are clues about what you asked Brother Tos to help you investigate before. To be honest, Brother Si would rather not have found out. You only said that the person who asked you to choose to leave Longmen was a big shot, but you didn't say that this big shot was the governor of Longmen. Brother Si really didn't expect that you, brother, have such a big background.

To be honest, Brother Si, I almost had a heart attack. You didn't see my expression at that time. In the words of your Yan country, I was shocked.

just kidding.

I really want to pretend that I haven't found anything, but even so, Brother Si knows that you must go back. I know your temper very well. After so many years, you only want one result, even if it will disappoint you. result.

Brother Si has already said enough that needs to be said, lest you find me annoying, so I won’t advise you any more. Brother, I will put the detailed information in the letter.

This is the first thing, and I received the letter sent to you. Don't think about it. It's not from Longmen. Are you disappointed?

I collected it for you. An upright person like Brother Si will definitely not do such a thing as peeking at other people's letters. Brother, you can rest assured, but the handwriting of the famous lady named Lei is really beautiful. The words are like the person. When you have time, I can introduce you to Brother Si and get to know him, but remember not to tell Huwei, I'm afraid she will be jealous.

Hehe, I didn’t expect that even without a bastard like you, Brother Si successfully chased Foxtail, so please remember to take good care of yourself and don’t forget what you promised me.

Finally, you must live well. No matter what you encounter in Longmen, you must live well for me.

Sfeldt October 28]

Brother Si was still as indifferent as ever. Chen Mo smiled softly, put down the letter and picked up the next one.

【snake:

I have received the remittance you transferred to the Colombian account. According to our previous expectations, I established a trading company in the Satellite City of Sores, Bolivardo. Now everything is going smoothly.

Your proposal to employ people infected with Originium Disease has received a good response. Most companies have not considered the corresponding personnel matters in this area before. Your attempt is bold and stupid, but from a personal perspective From a perspective, I appreciate your attempt.

Facts have proved that there are indeed many experienced talents and their family members among the infected, and all we have to do is provide them with a job that can guarantee their livelihood. It has to be said that in the short term, it has saved us a lot. There is a big funding and talent gap.

However, the management issue between infected people and ordinary employees is still a difficult problem. Although Bolivar’s chaotic domestic situation has created a suitable development environment, there are still various conflicts between infected people and ordinary employees. I am trying to start from We are looking for suitable people to fill the gap in the HIV-infected sympathy group, but to be honest, this has little effect nowadays.

I believe you can understand the predicament. I don’t know why you suddenly had this idea in the first place. I have successfully contacted Kazdaele through the contact information you left for me. I borrowed your name and They signed a long-term trade cooperation order at a medical institution in Letania.

I won't ask much about your affairs, I just hope you still remember the agreement between us.

Also, take care of yourself.

Seria October [-]]

The simple summary of Seria's letter is three sentences: lack of money, lack of people, and I will leave if there is no hope.

The clear distinction between public and private affairs is exactly the same as the impression she left on others.

But fortunately, the order left by Kazdale temporarily solved Chen Mo's urgent need. Fortunately, he had left some connections in Kazdale, otherwise everything would not be able to survive as it is now, but if not He wouldn't have suddenly thought of setting up such a experimental company after going to Kazdale.

Chen Mo thought, put down the letter and picked up the next one.

[Long time no see, sir:

Not knowing whether you would receive this letter, I asked Ms. Kelsey to forward this letter to you.

After you left, in accordance with your instructions, I dismissed most of the people and formed a mercenary team with the remaining people. The help of the Tower of Babel saved us from a lot of trouble, but some people still died unfortunately.

I began to gradually understand the meaning of what you told me originally. The other mercenary organizations and Sakaz people we met, they all told me the same fact.

They don't like war, but many times, they actually have no extra choice. The conflicts between the lords, the conflicts over grabbing resources and supplies, the readily available weapons, and the long-term chaotic life make it impossible for us, Sarkaz, to stop. To choose stability.

Many times, Sarkazis are forced to take up weapons, and after a long time, they become a habit.

Habits are deadly leaders. They are used to using weapons instead of words to resolve conflicts. They are used to using violence instead of peace talks to alleviate conflicts. They are used to taking away other people's food. They are used to taking other people's lives casually.

Slowly, I no longer listen to words, and slowly I don’t even know what to choose.

Maybe it's because of this that we become the bloodless and tearless Sakaz in people's eyes. It's precisely because most of us have accepted this fact and never thought about arguing.

I asked Ms. Kelsi, and she told me that no one stipulated that Sakaz should be like this. It was the Sakaz who chose him. As you said, perhaps the only one who can save the Sakaz is the Sakaz. Kaz.

This land has experienced years of suffering and chaos. I don't know how long it will last, but if I can do something to bring it to an end early, I am willing to do so, and I also believe that most Sakaz They all had the same idea as me.

I hope to exchange my work for food and clothing, I hope my family will stay with me for a long time, and I hope my life will be peaceful and stable.

Sorry, sir, I wrote these seemingly strange words without realizing it. I just thought that if I hadn’t met you in Grai and what happened in Grai, I think I should have discussed it with most of the servants now. Like Sarkaz, Bing was deeply disappointed with this land, but he never thought about trying to do anything to change it. Instead, he allowed himself to live in dissociation until one day he died.

I am very grateful to you, sir. It is only now that I truly understand what you have done. Although you always say that you are just doing a trivial thing, what you have done is exactly what most Sakaz We all had extravagant hopes but gave up on our own.

Finally, I wish you all the best and a speedy return.

Mudstone September [-]th]

Chen Mo could probably imagine what her naive adjutant looked like when she wrote this letter. Although there was not a word of missing her between the lines, it was obvious that she was thinking of him.

Chen Mo suddenly felt warm. After reading it several times, he reluctantly put the letter down and picked up the next one.

[Long time greetings, Mr. Chen Mo:

I heard Kelsi say that Mr. Chen Mo, your friend in Grai wrote you a letter. I thought about it and wrote one by the way.

You may not know that Kelsey is very angry because you left quietly. She said that after catching you, she must find an iron cage to lock you up. I know she is joking, but To be honest, this is the first time I have seen that cold Kelsey make such a joke.

There's a chance she will actually do this, but don't worry, she will let you out soon, I can guarantee it.

Have you recognized each other?

You said they were your best friends, and you promised them you would go back. When you talked about this, you may not have noticed that your voice would always soften.

It's great to have two friends like this.

After not seeing each other for so many years, we must have changed a lot. We have a lot to say.

...Mr. Chen Mo, I can feel your loneliness. Although you have never mentioned it to me, I know that you don’t actually care about what happens here in Kazdale, nor do you care about the suffering in this country. You will sympathize but not get involved. You and we are not the same kind of people, but sometimes I still think, selfishly, how great it would be if you were a Sakaz. If I met you earlier, It should be able to avoid a lot of things that shouldn't happen.

Maybe you are right. For the current Kazdaele, my performance is too weak. I have failed to fulfill my duties as the monarch of Sakaz. My ideals are too far away and too unrealistic. But now I have no right to stop.

Mr. Chen Mo, I know Kelsey must have told you about the problems I encountered with my body, and she also made a promise to you, but I still hope you can think it over carefully, and I hope you can choose the path you want. , even if this path goes against us.

I will not have any complaints or dissatisfaction with you because of this, because Mr. Chen Mo, you should have your own life and not be bound by anyone.

I hope you can find your own future with the person you want.

Lei September [-]th]

His Highness is always so gentle and always considers other people's affairs first.

Chen Mo thought that His Highness should be very clear that if she never came to Kazdaele again, her remaining hope would be extinguished. She seemed to be ready and saw the truest Chen Mo.

An ordinary guy with no great ambitions and hypocrisy. When in front of His Highness and Mud Rock, he is an outsider who yearns to save Kazdale. When in front of Kelsey, he is a businessman with a clear purpose, bargaining. When in front of the doctor, He is a cold-blooded schemer and warmonger.

He wore many masks, but he could not escape Theresa's eyes. No matter how good he pretended or how similar he looked, he was essentially just a selfish person.

Chen Mo put down the letter and took out the thin page of information tucked under Sfeldt's letter. It had the face of a majestic man printed on it.

It was exactly the same as the face Chen Mo had seen when he was a child.

【Wei Yanwu】

His fingers tightened on the title page.

Chen Mo finally knew the man's name and his identity.

His Highness said that he hoped that he could find his own future with the person he hoped for, but Chen Mo knew that he had lost this future since he became an infected person.

Just like grizzly bears and one-eyed wolves with families, they can only receive letters from home during the holidays, but cannot be with their loved ones.

Because their status as infected persons will bring huge obstacles to each other's lives.

Chen Mo can no longer interfere in the lives of Tallulah and Chen as an infected person. He is undoubtedly a selfish person, but at least he is not selfish to this extent.

He was already prepared.

But he still had to go back to Longmen to find out the cause of death of the two people and his own identity. Just as Sfeldt said, he had to put an end to this fateful encounter when he was a child, and he had to go there in person. Repay the kindness he had received from this upbringing.

After that, he can return to Kazdale without any worries to make the knife he and the doctor agreed upon. If he is lucky, he should be able to appear at Sfeldt's possible wedding and drink with him. One cup.

He was drunk, envious of this damn guy for having such a wonderful life, and secretly cursing that his future family life would be full of ups and downs and conflicts.

ps: The tone of this book is just like this. As an ordinary time traveler, I narrate the helplessness and struggle encountered in Terra.

ps2: I also want to kill Sman directly, but that doesn't make any sense. Apart from increasing the danger of the infected team and making myself comfortable, maybe it's not a good article. Alas, it's so miserable.
