85

The scenery outside the window swept past.

Fugui held the heavy wooden box wrapped in red cloth tightly, for fear of accidentally waking up Liangzi who was sleeping peacefully. He looked out the window, rivers and mountains, all fleeting with the speed of the train, but what was fleeting was not just this charming scenery? Liangzi's young life was instantly integrated into nature, turning into green mountains and white clouds, and the only thing that could not be lost was his nostalgia for the world and his desire for life. Fugui looked at him motionlessly, and his heart felt a burst of pain.

These days, he seemed to have been in a dream, and he still didn't want to believe that the familiar face left in a hurry. Although he knew that all this was not a dream, he still didn't want to wake up. What he would rather have happened was a misty dream.

More than ten days ago, Liangzi walked along this railway track on the way home. He could not feel Liangzi's excitement at that time, but now, these two railway tracks are still the sound of whistles. However, Liangzi, who left, could no longer enjoy the beautiful scenery outside with his bright eyes.

At both ends of the railway tracks, Liangzi's two yearnings in his life. Step by step, it was the hometown where he gave birth to him, his family affection, and his classmates he had been obsessed with. Step by step, it was the military camp he loved, his comrades, and the poplar forest he had always guarded with his youth.

However, all of them gradually faded away, and the only thing that was left was those tragic memories.

Dawn, who had been smoking for a long time, began to cough violently again. The injured hand was hanging around his neck with a bandage, shaking violently as he coughed.

His face was very haggard. Fugui knew that he had not had a good rest in the hospital these days. Seeing his comrades leaving, no one could bear this cruel reality. Especially when he stabbed the dagger deep into the enemy's chest, it was shocked by Fugui at that moment, because even Fugui could not have such courage. When they got on the car, the captain had already told them the result of evaluating military merits. Zhang Chengliang was recognized as the second-class merit, but Li Ming lost the second-class merit because of his mistake. Fugui deeply repented for the words that day. After all, he and Liangzi were also very close comrades.

The train slowly entered a small station, and the bustling carriages became even more crowded.

A middle-aged man wearing glasses stopped beside Fugui, looked at the empty seat beside him and asked, "Comrade PLA, is there anyone here?"

When Fugui saw his glasses, he suddenly thought of the leader they had arrested and said angrily: "Someone." After saying that, he gently placed Liangzi's urn on his seat. He was not telling a lie. When he set off, Liming insisted on buying an extra ticket. Fugui understood what he meant, and he didn't want anyone to disturb Liangzi. In their minds, Liangzi would always be with them.

The man looked around and sat down and said, "I will leave when the person comes." After that, he pushed Liangzi's urn in.

When Fugui saw him squeezed to Liangzi, he frowned and said, "There are people here. Don't disturb him. Otherwise, you can sit here." After that, he stood up.

The man looked at him: "This bad box is considered a human being? Even if it is wrapped in red cloth, it is still a box? Are you kidding?"

Li Ming stood up suddenly, threw away the cigarette and looked at him glaringly: "What did you say? You'd better apologize to him now." After saying that, he pointed to Liangzi's urn.

The man was stunned for a moment, ignored them, and began to place his luggage on the shelves above.

Zhang Chengliang's brother stood up and pulled Liming and said, "Forget it, why don't I hold Liangzi."

Li Ming broke free from his hand and pulled the man out of his seat: "Come with me, I will teach you how to talk." After that, he pulled the man to the bathroom.

Fugui did not dissuade Liming, and he knew that the man would suffer. Sure enough, in less than five minutes, the man limped over, bowed to Liangzi with a sad face, and embarrassingly took off his luggage from the luggage rack and disappeared into the carriage as if he ran away.
