Su Mingan opened his eyes.
Throwing the debt of love to the goddess of life to Si Que, Su Mingan came to Wang Xingkong's perspective.
"Brother Wang, climb carefully and don't get discovered by the security guard." A male voice came from the side. It was a tall male classmate with big eyes and a flat mouth. He was probably Wang Xingkong's good friend. The school badge on his chest read "Chen Yuhang".
Su Mingan looked down and found himself climbing over the school fence. It turned out that Wang Xingkong was skipping classes and was taken over by him.
It just so happened that he had always been curious about what the outside world would be like if he escaped from Mingxi campus.
"Let's go." Su Mingan turned over.
Chen Yuhang hurriedly followed, and they ran straight out until they reached the end of the road, only to find that there was only a blank space.
Su Mingan pulled Chen Yuhang up, bent his legs, and jumped——
“Brother Wang, you—Ahhhhhhh——!” Chen Yuhang was surrounded by the sound of wind, and the feeling of weightlessness from falling made his eyes widen instantly.
The strong wind blew Su Mingan's black hair. He squinted his eyes and looked down, and saw the outline of Luowasa through the clouds - as expected, Mingxi campus was floating on Luowasa.
They happened to pass through an updraft, and under the control of wind flow and spatial displacement, Su Mingan dragged Chen Yuhang and stumbled to the ground.
Chen Yuhang rubbed his eyes, stunned by Luo Washa’s sight—the sun and the moon were in the same sky, and there was even a dragon in the sky.
"Oh my god, where did this come from? Is this still Mingxi?" Chen Yuhang was dumbfounded.
Rovatha is vast. There is Atlantis under the sea, a medieval kingdom of dragons and heroes, and a wasteland-style city, like a hodgepodge cake piece by piece. Just a short walk will make you feel like you have crossed several eras.
Su Mingan didn't know where he jumped to. It seemed to be a war zone.
At this time, a soldier came out from behind the ruins, seemingly on patrol. He saw Su Mingan and Chen Yuhang, hesitated for a moment, lowered the explosion-proof shield in his hand, and picked up the intercom:
"Report to the commander, I found two students."
A rude voice came from the intercom: "There is war every day in Kasar, and refugees are fleeing everywhere. How could there be students nearby? Kill them on the spot!"
"Yes!" The soldier frowned as he looked at the immature appearance of Su Mingan and Chen Yuhang. He did not think that these two people were enemies, but military orders were as heavy as a mountain.
Seeing the soldier raising his gun, Chen Yuhang immediately stood in front of Su Mingan: "Brother Wang! I know! I am dreaming! Right, otherwise I wouldn't see such a magical scene. I still have to do my math test paper tonight..."
Even though his mouth was trembling with fear, he did not step away.
Su Mingan motioned to him to run towards the residential building together.
“Da da da—”
Shots were fired from behind, but missed.
After rushing into the residential building, Su Mingan looked back. The soldier did not chase them. Instead, he glanced at them and turned away.
"Brother, he doesn't seem to want to kill us..." Chen Yuhang said.
"Maybe he has children too." Su Mingan said. After all, he and Chen Yuhang really looked like they had nothing to do with the war, like students out looking for food.
"Letting us go on the battlefield, is this because they still have some humanity left, or are they just disobeying military orders?" Chen Yuhang followed Su Ming'an upstairs. At the corner of the corridor, he looked down again, and the soldier happened to be looking up.
The two pairs of dark eyes stared at each other for a moment. Chen Yuhang clearly saw the wrinkles and yellow skin on the soldier's face, and several dark spots across his neck. The soldier touched his gun and looked away.
He wouldn't say that his child died because he was mistaken for a spy.
"...I don't know." Su Mingan walked up.
After experiencing the war in the ruined world, he could no longer give an answer to this question. For those in power, launching a war is a necessary process, and for those who were displaced in the war, they did have reason to hate those in power.
The two walked upstairs in the residential building.
"Brother, where are you going? What's so special about this residential building? It looks like it's about to collapse..." Chen Yuhang followed closely.
"Follow me." Su Mingan saw the red circle of clues on the sixth floor. There was actually a clue in this ordinary residential building.
At this moment, they suddenly heard a loud noise, as if something exploded not far away.
"boom--!!"
Dust flew, gravel danced wildly, and as Chen Yuhang coughed, Su Mingan looked out from the corridor.
Outside the stone wall that was divided into several holes, the sunlight was faintly visible among the smoke and dust, and the morning mist-like light lingered in the Tyndall effect, reflecting the condensed smell of gunpowder. He saw the buildings in the distance falling like wheat, swallowing up the returning soldier.
The soldier didn't even get a few steps before he was engulfed by the bombing. Under the crumbling bricks, only blood and a charred hand remained.
Chen Yuhang looked at this scene - the golden light swirled playfully in the air, the morning sun was about to rise in the distance, and the houses were dyed with morning light, like gelatin, like mist, like little silver elves smiling, and rushing towards him through the tiny holes that separated them.
“…This is a dream, right?”
In silence, he said.
He looked at Su Mingan with pleading eyes.
Su Mingan paused for a moment, looking at Chen Yuhang, who was about the same age as him. He was used to seeing death and war, but this was still too unfamiliar to an 18 or 19-year-old student.
"Maybe I shouldn't have brought you out here?"
“No…no.” Chen Yuhang sobered up a lot. He covered his pounding heart and said, “At least you let me see the truth, Brother Wang. This is the first time I feel that I am really alive. Not just a learning machine that keeps improving every day.”
