Chapter 94: Lu Huaiyan's belongings, the pocket watch with her photo was thrown away



ambush?

As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Xiachu was stunned for a moment, turned his head to look in the direction of Lu Huaiyan, but the next second, something suddenly flashed in front of his eyes.

The sound of gunfire was still roaring in my ears, and the tanks in the distance were burning like steel monsters, with thick smoke billowing into the sky.

Amid the heavy gunfire, she watched him fall off the tank.

The sudden explosion stirred up flying sand all over the sky. The loess was burned black and the entire battlefield was in a mess. The huge impact instantly blew Lu Huaiyan's body to pieces.

There wasn't even any blood to be seen. His entire body was instantly engulfed by the artillery fire and disappeared completely.

Jiang Xiachu was completely stunned, his ears were ringing, and his head was blank.

Even though she knew this might be a dream, her face was full of disbelief and she ran desperately towards Lu Huaiyan.

Suddenly, the scene changed.

After the explosion, a soldier rushed towards Lu Huaiyan regardless of everything, his face pale, and he shouted hysterically: "Chief!"

"Chief!!!"

The surviving soldiers ran with injuries, trying to find any trace of Lu Huaiyan in the explosion.

As a result, when they searched and searched again and again, they could only see some miserable remains.

"Here! The commander's shoulder straps are here!"

Someone suddenly found traces of Lu Huaiyan. When everyone heard this, they immediately rushed towards that person.

“Captain…”

Although it was hard to believe, Lu Huaiyan's body was indeed gone, and only the blood-stained shoulder strap was still there, proving that he had indeed been there.

Jiang Xiachu stopped and his soul seemed to be sucked out of him. He stood there blankly, his heart full of confusion and pain, as if he was nailed to the spot.

The blown-off tracks were scattered like broken chains, and the remains of weapons were intertwined with broken wood and stones, making it impossible to distinguish one from the other.

When did this happen? How come she had never heard of it?

Lu Huaiyan had been out of contact for so long, could he also be busy on the front line?

Jiang Xiachu swallowed, lowered his head and looked at the mess on the ground, his fists clenched tightly. He didn't know when his eyes turned red.

She was in a trance when a blood-stained hand suddenly passed through her translucent body and reached towards the ground.

The man picked up the gold-bronze pocket watch, held it tightly in his hand, turned on the switch and took a look.

When the pocket watch was opened, a small photo was attached to it, and from a distance it looked like a woman.

Jiang Xiachu moved to the side of the soldier, trying to see the person in the photo clearly, but as soon as he got closer, the soldier took a deep breath and put the pocket watch into his arms.

Jiang Xiachu was a little anxious and wanted to look up to see the soldier's appearance clearly, but the next second, the scene in front of him became increasingly blurry.

Jiang Xiachu reached out and tried to grab the person next to him.

Instead, the man turned around, grabbed the chain of the pocket watch, strode to the side of the pit, and swung it violently.

In just a moment, the pocket watch was thrown into the valley nearby and could never be found again.

"Xia Chu, what's wrong with you?"

"Early summer?"

"Xia Chu, are you having a nightmare? Wake up!"

In a trance, Jiang Xiachu suddenly woke up. When she opened her eyes, she saw Lin Qingli looking at her with concern and shaking her shoulders.

Seeing that she woke up, Lin Qingli breathed a sigh of relief and took the hand on her shoulder away. "Xia Chu, you scared me to death. You were shaking and sweating just now. I thought you were sick."

Jiang Xiachu has not yet recovered from the nightmare he just had.

She raised her hand to wipe the cold sweat from her forehead, her eyes filled with mixed emotions, her mind full of the explosion just now.

So true.

It was as if it really happened. The blood and flesh, the tragic scene on the battlefield, made it difficult for her to calm down even now.

The more you look at the remains of corpses, the more horrifying it becomes and the more your heart aches.

She shook her head, trying to sober herself up. "It's okay. I just had a nightmare. It will be fine after a while."

Lin Qingli grabbed her hand, frowned and looked at her worriedly, feeling that something was not right.

But she was afraid of touching her sore spot, so she didn't dare to ask what she had dreamed about.

There was no expression on Jiang Xiachu's face, but she inexplicably felt that her eyes looked more painful than crying.

What kind of scene could make her so sad?

The more Lin Qingli watched, the more distressed she felt. She sat up, hugged Jiang Xiachu in her arms, sighed, and said in a gentle voice, "Xiachu, don't think about it anymore. Since it's a dream, it's the opposite. Don't take the scenes in the dream seriously."

Jiang Xiachu exhaled, put his arm around her back, and nodded, "I understand. It's okay."

Lin Qingli felt relieved, and quickly got up from the bed, poured a cup of warm water and handed it to Jiang Xiachu, "Drink some water."

Jiang Xiachu took the cup and took a big sip.

She had long ago replaced the water in the water tank at home with spiritual spring water. After drinking the water, her mood immediately eased a lot, and her heart, which had been beating wildly, gradually calmed down.

She got off the bed holding the cup, her eyes flickering slightly.

The dream I just had was so weird that it seemed strange no matter how I looked at it.

That was a battlefield. With Lu Huaiyan's personality, how could he carry a pocket watch on him? It didn't seem like his style at all.

Especially the last hand before waking up from the dream.

That person picked up Lu Huaiyan's pocket watch and threw it away...

After thinking for a long time, Jiang Xiachu still couldn't figure out the reason, so he simply put the matter out of his mind.

After all, no matter what, this is just a nightmare.

She wasn't going to take a dream so seriously.

-

After the two got up, Fang Yingqiu had already prepared breakfast and immediately called the two girls to come for breakfast.

"Come and try the lard noodles I made today!" Fang Yingqiu picked up the poached eggs from the plate and put one in each of their bowls with a big smile on her face.

Jiang Xiachu and Lin Qingli were very cooperative. After taking a big mouthful of noodles, they both gave thumbs up and praised: "It smells good!"

"Only Aunt Fang can make lard noodles so delicious."

Jiang Xiachu had a look of satisfaction on his face, and he was extremely happy to see Fang Yingqiu.

After she came back last night, she felt unlucky and was in a bad mood, but now she feels better.

Moreover, the results of the art troupe's exam will be announced today. On such a good day, she doesn't want to be ruined by those unworthy people.

After finishing their meal, they rode their bicycles directly to the assessment site.

There was only one bicycle at home, but Aunt Du, who heard that they were going to see the results, immediately pushed her own bicycle over and waved her hand, saying, "Just ride mine!"

Jiang Xiachu rode a bicycle with Lin Qingli, chatting and laughing along the way. Lin Qingli was very nervous at first, but after being comforted by Jiang Xiachu, her mood immediately improved a lot.
