He rode back up the mountain in the plague-ridden carriage once more.
Everyone took off their military uniforms, changed into their civilian clothes, and went down the mountain under the cover of night.
The large group of people didn't dare take the main road, but instead circled around several narrow paths before finally reaching the port.
Late at night, everyone boarded the ship.
Yi Mu knew that once he left, he didn't know when he would be able to see his family again.
So after boarding the ship, I kept looking in the direction of home.
Zeng Guangzhao walked behind him, lit a cigarette, took a puff, and exhaled the smoke.
"I thought it would be better for you to go to Chongqing with your family."
Yi Mu turned to look at him, his voice sounding somewhat unreal on the wide river.
"What, you find it annoying that I'm following you around?"
Zeng Guangzhao shook his head and laughed, "You know perfectly well that's not what I meant."
The outcome of this journey is uncertain, and Zeng Guangzhao has no absolute certainty. The Chairman will certainly handle the situation accordingly.
If everything goes according to his plan, that would be ideal. But if they fail, they will face a devastating blow.
Imu was certainly certain of this, which is why he followed.
If Zeng Guangzhao dies in this world, then this world will lose its meaning for Yi Mu.
But if he succeeds, Yi Mu will stay with him and continue on this journey.
The ship raised its anchor and began to move forward.
Yimu stood with his back to the railing, looking up at the stars in the night sky.
The deck was quiet, with only the occasional swear word or two coming out from inside.
Some of the soldiers were on a ship for the first time and were so excited they couldn't sleep.
Yi Mu turned his head to look at Zeng Guangzhao's increasingly resolute profile, and suddenly became interested in teasing him.
Do you believe in reincarnation?
Zeng Guangzhao turned to look at him, recalling the time they met at the theater and argued over an actor; it seemed like a long time ago.
"I went to the theater because I had important business to attend to. I don't really like watching plays, and I'm even less interested in those ghost stories and deities."
Yi Mu smiled; Zeng Guangzhao was getting better and better at talking.
She even knows not to disappoint him; isn't that a form of thoughtfulness in disguise?
"I believe that in my past lives, and in the lives before that, my lover was the same person, including in this life."
Imu's lover?
Zeng Guangzhao realized what he was referring to, and feeling utterly absurd, threw away the cigarette butt in his hand and stubbed it out with his foot.
Yi Mu kept his head down, observing his posture.
First, twist your foot to the right, then to the left, quickly and cleanly, and then tap your foot with the tip of your leather shoe.
The exact same movements, I've seen them many times.
Zeng Guangzhao assumed that Yi Mu was just looking for another opportunity to flirt with him. He yawned and told Yi Mu to go back to sleep early.
Yi Mu's bed was on top of Zeng Guangzhao's, and Zeng Guangzhao's bed was on the bottom.
Although Zeng Guangzhao was afraid that Yi Mu would climb into his bed in the middle of the night, he was even more afraid that Yi Mu would sleep alone and have someone else climb into his bed.
So, even though you care about him, you insist on acting like you have no feelings for him at all.
Or maybe I just see you as a good friend, which is why I'm nice to you.
After a day on the ship, I transferred to a train and then got off at the Nanjing Railway Station.
A group of more than two thousand people got off the train and blocked the train station.
The station staff found it strange to see a group of young men of similar age getting off the train.
When I handed the matter over to the train staff, I realized there was a problem.
People traveling from north to south to find work, although mostly young men, would be quite a lot if they gathered in groups of ten or twenty.
There's something fishy about thousands of people like this.
The station's management was alerted and made a call to the police station.
