Chapter 153 Sleep and Awakening



Lin Yuexi looked at the busy soldiers, then looked at Lu Cheng who was lying on the ground and still unconscious, her heart full of worry.

She thought about it, and quickly put the heavy machine gun and rifle into the space, then helped Lu Cheng to a conspicuous high ground, so that other soldiers could find him and provide help.

It was not until she saw a soldier noticed this side and ran towards Lu Cheng that she quickly closed her eyes with relief, concentrated her mind again, and flashed into the space.

When Lin Yuexi came out of the space again, she returned to the room in the guesthouse.

In the room, soft light shines on the old furniture, and the warm yellow halo makes the whole space look particularly warm.

Outside the window, the hustle and bustle of the small town could be heard faintly, with the sounds of people talking and laughing in the streets and alleys interweaving together, forming a world of difference from the battlefield filled with gunfire and smoke just now.

She subconsciously looked down at her hands, which still had the smell of gunpowder and blood from the battle, dirt and dust embedded in the gaps between her nails, and the abrasions at the base of her thumb still hurt slightly, but everything before her eyes seemed so real.

The heavy machine gun that she had held until it was burning hot, the pungent smoke that filled the air, and Lu Cheng's tired but determined face, all seemed to be still before her eyes.

She slowly walked to the bed and gently ran her fingers over the sheets, the touch felt real.

On the table was the book she read before going to bed, with the corners of the book slightly curled up. There was still half a cup of water left in the cup, and the surface of the water was calm.

Everything was exactly the same as before she entered the space, as if the fierce battle that had just taken place and the experience of life and death with Lu Cheng were just an absurd and bizarre dream.

Lin Yuexi felt a little tired. She fell on the bed. Soon her breathing became even and deep, and she fell into a deep sleep.

This time, there was no roar of war, no ferocious faces of the enemies, no fear of hail of bullets, and no heart-wrenching scene when Lu Cheng fell.

In her dream, there was a peaceful sea of ​​flowers. The breeze blew gently, and the flowers swayed gracefully, emitting bursts of sweet fragrance.

The warm sunlight fell on her body and warmed her heart. The corners of her mouth unconsciously rose, revealing a reassured smile.

In this peaceful dream, she relaxed to her heart's content, enjoying the long-lost peace.

The tense heart a few days ago finally relaxed completely at this moment, as if all the fatigue and pressure disappeared with this sweet dream.

I don’t know how long it had been, but a crisp and persistent knock on the door slowly penetrated the sweet dream and reached Lin Yuexi’s ears.

At first, the voice was vague at the edge of her consciousness, like a distant call, and did not attract much attention from her.

But as the knocking on the door continued and became more rapid, her brows furrowed slightly and her consciousness began to slowly withdraw from that beautiful sea of ​​flowers.

Lin Yuexi slowly opened her eyes, still sleepy, with the tenderness and comfort from her dreams still lingering in her eyes.

She looked around in a daze, and the familiar guesthouse room came into view. The warm yellow light still softly sprinkled on the old furniture.

For a moment, she couldn't tell whether she was still in a dream or had returned to reality.

At this time, a young man's voice came from outside the door: "Comrade Lin Yuexi, are you there?" The voice was a bit anxious and expectant, and it was particularly clear in the quiet corridor.

Lin Yuexi finally woke up completely. She quickly got up, tidied her slightly messy clothes, walked quickly to the door and opened it.

There stood at the door a waiter from the guesthouse and a young soldier.

The soldier was dressed in a neat uniform and had a

An anxious look. Seeing Lin Yuexi, a hint of surprise flashed in the soldier's eyes. He immediately stood at attention and saluted, saying, "Sister-in-law, you finally woke up!..."

"What..." Lin Yuexi was a little confused.

Seeing this, the waiter at the guesthouse quickly added, "Comrade Lin Yuexi, you have been sleeping with the door closed for a whole day and night, and we initially thought you had gone out.

It wasn’t until this comrade came that we sensed something was wrong and knocked on your door.”

Lin Yuexi was slightly stunned when she heard this, and a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes. She subconsciously looked out the window, and the sky had darkened, and lights were lit on the street.

She really didn't expect that she could sleep so soundly for so long after that thrilling battle.

The soldier stood at the door and saw that although Lin Yuexi looked a little tired, she was fine. He finally felt relieved and said quickly, "Sister-in-law, I finally found you!

Captain Lu has completed his mission and returned, but he is still in a coma. During this period, he kept calling your name, which made everyone feel uncomfortable.

So, I am here on the orders of the brigade commander to pick you up and take care of Battalion Commander Lu. The battalion commander has been thinking about you, and I think he will feel relieved after seeing you, and he may wake up soon. "

The soldier finished speaking in one breath, his face full of sincerity and anxiety. He was breathing slightly heavily, with beads of sweat on his forehead, and it was obvious that he had rushed all the way here.

When Lin Yuexi heard this, she was stunned at first, and then surprise and worry flashed in her eyes. She was surprised that Lu Cheng had returned safely, but she was worried that he was unconscious at the moment.

She didn't have time to think about it, and quickly replied: "Comrade, thank you so much! Please wait for a moment, I will pack my clothes and go with you."

As she spoke, Lin Yuexi turned around and walked quickly into the room, flashed into the space, drank two cups of spiritual spring water, and felt her strength restored.

Then he quickly tidied the somewhat messy bed, opened the simple luggage bag, stuffed a few sets of clothes into it, and picked up the toiletries.

Her movements were quick and decisive, but her eyes kept looking towards the door, for fear of keeping the soldiers waiting too long.

After packing up, Lin Yuexi confirmed again that nothing was left behind before hurriedly walking out of the room with her luggage bag.

He closed the door and followed the soldiers downstairs quickly toward the jeep parked in front of the guesthouse.

Along the way, Lu Cheng's figure was all in her mind. She quickened her pace unconsciously, and she only wanted to see Lu Cheng as soon as possible to see how he was doing.

The jeep sped through the night, and the rustling sound of its wheels rubbing against the ground broke the tranquility of the night.

Lin Yuexi sat in the car, her eyes fixed on the front. The light of the street lamp flashed by, illuminating her worried face. The image of Lu Cheng in coma kept appearing in her mind, and she felt a little uneasy.

However, she then thought again that she had taken his pulse and knew that Lu Cheng's life was not in danger, so she felt relieved.

Finally, the jeep arrived at the camp.

The soldier jumped out of the car first, opened the door for Lin Yuexi, and guided her to walk quickly to the temporary medical point.

Along the way, the soldiers she met saluted her with respect and concern in their eyes.
