This day was the day for Grandpa Guan to move his grave.
Guan Yuxi deliberately chose the furthest date among the several dates she had planned.
He wanted to wait for Leng Lie to return, but in the end, he never got to see him.
A light rain began to fall, and rows of black umbrellas covered the sky.
Even the area above the awnings is no exception.
Police officers and local residents who came spontaneously surrounded the entire cemetery.
In a solemn and respectful atmosphere, Secretary Song's eulogy resounded powerfully over Lengjiagou.
"Comrade Guan's life was a great one. He devoted every drop of blood and every bit of enthusiasm to the pursuit of justice and righteousness. He was not afraid of the bitter cold of winter, the threat of the enemy, or the end of his life. He dedicated his entire life to his beliefs."
Comrade Guan's life was full of hardships. With his own flesh and blood, he crossed countless lines of fire and withstood countless artillery bombardments, but in the end, he couldn't even protect his own children and relatives! He dodged the enemy's open attacks, but he couldn't dodge the hidden arrows of the evil forces.
In the grand scheme of history, Comrade Guan's life was an insignificant one. But it is precisely because of the selflessness and fearlessness of these countless insignificant individuals that we have achieved peace today, and that we can stand tall as human beings!
The green hills remain evergreen, and the heroic spirits will never perish.
Grandpa Guan's spirit will always accompany and inspire us. We will continue to carry the banner he once carried, follow in his footsteps, look up to his beliefs, and take one step at a time towards national rejuvenation, national prosperity and self-reliance, and a peaceful and happy life for the people!
May the departed rest in peace, may our nation prosper and our people thrive, may the harsh winter dissipate, and may their noble spirit endure to guide our path forward!
Secretary Song first gave a military salute, then knelt down and respectfully kowtowed three times.
The officers around them, their eyes red with tears, followed suit and saluted.
The crowd, who had come spontaneously, knelt down, sobbing, disregarding the mud and their dignity.
Guan Yuxi supports the coffin.
Her eyes were red and swollen, and she could no longer cry.
He just stared blankly at the newly covered coffin made of nanmu wood.
Suddenly, a path was spontaneously cleared in the crowd.
A familiar yet unfamiliar, robust figure entered her field of vision.
Guan Yuxi's lips twitched slightly, but she ultimately said nothing.
Leng Lie put on an ill-fitting hemp mourning garment, strode over, knelt before the coffin, kowtowed several times, and then stood up on the other side of the coffin.
He gave Guan Yuxi a deep look and nodded slightly to her.
Guan Yuxi's eyes were burning hot.
She forced a smile and turned her head away.
He finally made it!
She felt nothing but relief.
Perhaps, so much has happened in the past six months that she has become strong enough to no longer depend on him?
A deep sense of guilt and tenderness flashed in Leng Lie's eyes.
Although he was still unaware of what had happened.
However, one can glean some clues from Guan Yuxi's thin and tired appearance, as well as from the matter of Grandpa Guan's grave relocation.
He wasn't there when she needed him most...
A metallic taste rose in Leng Lie's throat, but he forced it down.
No one knows how agonizing his longing was.
Now that he's finally back, he doesn't dare look at her too much, afraid of burdening her.
Uncle Leng and Aunt Du looked at the two of them with concern.
He sighed almost imperceptibly and lowered his head again.
After arriving at the Martyrs' Cemetery.
The ceremony, which was originally planned to be performed by Leng Qingshu, was taken over by Leng Lie.
Leng Qingshu simply offered him gentle guidance from the side.
After cleaning the tomb, Leng Lie poured several bottles of liquor to disinfect it. The subsequent procedures, such as warming the tomb and placing the coffin, were all completed by Leng Lie and Secretary Song together.
Until the last handful of loess was used to compact it.
Guan Yuxi stiffly followed Leng Lie and knelt down in front of the grave, following Secretary Song's actions.
Stacks of paper money were set on fire.
Flames shot into the sky, casting a blush on her pale and haggard face.
The continuous crackling of firecrackers blocked out all outside sounds.
Guan Yuxi stared blankly at Leng Lie, who was kneeling by the fire tearing paper.
For a moment, I was in a daze.
My mind felt as if a lot of things had been forcibly stuffed into it, and I fainted.
"Xiao Xi!"
Leng Lie caught her in a panic.
He had been watching her closely all along, feeling heartbroken yet unable to get close to her.
Seeing her almost faint, he couldn't care less about anything else.
***
Guan Yuxi felt as if her soul had been torn into three parts.
A story about Guan Yuxi, who experiences the world of the book, from the moment she was born to the time before her soul travels through time;
One is Guan Yuxi in the 21st century, detailing all her experiences from childhood to adulthood.
The third story is about another woman's life, the life of a woman also named Bai Qin.
The experiences of the two Guan Yuxis are perfectly blended together.
At this point, Guan Yuxi finally understood her identity in the 21st century.
It turns out that she is a junior police officer from a family of police officers, but unlike ordinary police officers, she is different.
She belongs to the only fully-fledged cultural relics crime investigation team in the country, and is a police officer who specializes in investigating cultural relics crimes; in layman's terms, she is a cultural relics police officer.
Because she often comes into contact with damaged cultural relics, she couldn't bear to see those old objects that carry history and civilization vanish into thin air. So she apprenticed herself to learn how to restore those cultural relics while also researching restoration methods on her own.
Finally, hard work pays off.
She caught the eye of the leaders with her superb skills in cultural relic restoration.
