Everything returned to calm, and the surroundings were so quiet as if the explosion had never happened.
Zhou Yan, Jiao Jiao and Liu Bingtao had developed a deep relationship over the days they had spent together. Now that man disappeared before their eyes, and with him disappeared the joy they had enjoyed over the past few days, leaving behind only immense heartache.
"Liu Bingtao..." Xiaoying murmured with red eyes.
If I had been more alert just now and had seen through Lu Yanan's trick earlier, would all this have not happened?
"Xiao Xi, are you okay?"
Yan Zhi let go of Chen Xi and glanced at him worriedly.
Chen Xi calmed down and appeared at the place where Lu Yanan had just self-destructed.
All I could see was a scorched earth, nothing left!!
The others followed closely behind, without saying a word.
Chen Xi turned her back to them and shed a tear quietly: "Pack up and let's go back."
Liu Bingtao died trying to save her.
Chen Xi acted very calm, which made them worried.
No one dared to speak along the way, firstly because of the death of their companion, and secondly because Chen Xi was in a bad mood.
They observed Chen Xi carefully.
Xiaoying pulled Chenxi's finger and said, "If you feel bad, just cry. I won't laugh at you."
Although he was comforting others, his eyes were already red.
Chen Xi forced a smile at her: "Don't worry, I know what I'm doing."
......
Inside the academy.
It was a pity that Chongye could not go with Chenxi like those people.
But when I thought that I had indirectly protected the entire China, the regret in my heart was gradually made up.
"Shigebu, what should we do now?"
Next to him stood a man wearing gold-rimmed glasses. He was Chongye's secretary, who had been helping him with matters. This time, he brought the man with him.
"Wait!" Chongye said one word without turning his head, and then stopped talking.
That explosion was so powerful.
I wonder if Chenxi and the others are safe?
The man with glasses also looked in the direction he was looking and sighed softly: "Master Chen, everything will be fine."
Such a powerful person, a mere explosion will not hurt her.
In fact, he didn't think so in his heart. He was also frightened by the explosion like Chongye.
He is just an ordinary person and can't do anything. Right now, he can only use words to comfort others and himself.
As if this were the case, everything was no longer dangerous.
Just when the two were filled with melancholy, many people came from afar.
"Master Chen!!"
A moment later, Chen Xi and the others appeared in the academy.
Chongye stepped forward excitedly: "Are you okay?"
He looked at all the people who came back and it seemed that one person was missing, but there was an extra strange woman.
His heart skipped a beat, but he didn't dare say anything.
He used to be a criminal policeman and had basic skills in observing people's words and expressions.
From their expressions, he knew that the young man must have encountered misfortune.
Chen Xi went into the house alone without saying a word.
Chongye then asked other people about the matter.
When he confirmed that Liu Bingtao had really sacrificed himself, he was speechless for a long time.
After finishing the remaining matters here, Chongye rushed back to Beijing overnight.
The next day, Chongye called Chenxi.
"Master Chen, I have applied for an honorary title for Liu Bingtao. With this, his parents will enjoy all the conveniences in the world. This is the only thing I can do for him..."
Chen Xi was silent for a moment, then after a while, he said, "Thank you!"
"No need to thank me. I should be the one thanking you. If you hadn't risked your own lives and stood in the front line, our country would have ceased to exist long ago. You are all heroes."
......
Liu Bingtao's parents, who were far away in another city, were happily setting up a stall when they suddenly received a call from Chen Xi. They were so confused that they almost fainted.
They barely stood still, listened carefully to Chen Xi's words, and choked out, "We understand!"
Then he hung up the phone without saying anything.
The two of them set up their stall from dawn to dusk as if nothing had happened.
Lying on the bed, the two could no longer bear it and hugged each other and cried loudly.
They had a child in their old age, but before they could enjoy the happiness of family life, they lost their child before they knew him.
This was unacceptable to them.
The two of them cried until late at night.
Liu Ming wiped his tears, hugged his wife and comforted her, "Don't cry, our son is a hero. He sacrificed his life to protect us. We should be proud of him."
They could see yesterday's battle clearly even from such a distance.
Especially the last explosion, which frightened them so much that their hearts palpitated.
Unexpectedly, the explosion was the time they lost their son.
Looking back now, everything makes sense.
After a sleepless night, they discussed and decided to build a cenotaph for their son.
They had already severed ties with their family years earlier, and thought that no one would come to see their son off for the last time.
I didn't expect that when I opened the door, I would see people everywhere.
There are familiar faces and unfamiliar faces.
After seeing Liu Ming and his wife, she bowed to them with red eyes.
Yesterday there were red clouds and explosions, and many voices appeared on the Internet. Those who knew thought that Chen Xi was exorcising demons, while those who didn’t know thought that the world was coming to an end.
Many people felt panic.
In order to avoid unrest, the News Department explained the situation overnight. After learning about the situation, they traveled thousands of miles to Liu Bingtao's doorstep to see him off together.
Liu Ming and Zhang Xia were very moved to see so many people gathered here for their son.
They are truly proud of their son.
Chen Xi and his group also showed up with Liu Bingtao's belongings.
Zhang Xia took her son's belongings and tears fell again in her red and swollen eyes.
She looked through her son's notebook, which contained his records of his life, including joys and troubles...
I was happy that I had Chen Xi as my master, happy that I could practice, happy that I had obtained a sword...
Worrying about the dream, worrying about how to make delicious food for Chenxi, worrying about what gift to give Chenxi...
Zhang Xia cried inconsolably and was held by Chen Xi to see Liu Bingtao off for the last time.
Back at the academy, Yan Zhi took Chen Xi to his senior brother's grave.
The cemetery in front of him was clean and tidy, which made Chen Xi very surprised: "What's going on?"
Could it be that, like the person whose fortune I had once had read, my ancestral grave was mistakenly identified by someone else?
