Chapter 24 Sequence 206, Soil of Hope

The rookie woke up faintly, the sky above his head was already slightly blue.

Beside the fire, the captain was heating corn mush in a small pot.

It's just that for some reason, the captain in the rookie's eyes looks very haggard, and his eyes are even a little red and swollen.

"Wake up, come, drink something to warm your body."

The captain emptied the pot until he had just enough for a small bowl of corn mush.

The rookie took the bowl, the food exuded sweet and hot air, his throat rolled, but he didn't swallow it in a hurry.

"Captain, what about you? You drink too." The rookie held out the bowl in his hand.

"Seeing that you haven't woken up yet, I've finished drinking it a long time ago. The last small bowl is reserved for you. Drink it quickly."

"oh oh."

Hearing that the captain had already drank, the rookie didn't hesitate anymore and drank the small bowl of paste in a few sips.

He was too hungry and lacked food, and he never had enough to eat during the journey these days.

After drinking, the rookie noticed that there was one person missing.

"What about the second sister?" He asked.

The captain was wrapping himself in bandages, layer after layer, almost wrapping his arm into a ball.

Despite this, the bleeding couldn't be stopped, and soon the top layer of gauze was dyed red.

Hearing the rookie's question, the rough man just kept wrapping the bandage around himself.

He was silent for a long time, and finally looked up at a small mound not far away, and said softly, "She's gone."

This six-man team made constant sacrifices, and in the end only the captain and the rookie who had just joined were left.

People keep leaving, and the rookie is no longer the sentimental little boy at the beginning.

He wiped the corners of his eyes, but no tears came out.

It turned out that at some point in the past, the tears in my eyes had already dried up.
Both were silent.

After drinking the mush, the captain and the rookie silently cleaned up the small camp for temporary camping.

Looking at the captain's gradually bent waist.

The rookie suddenly had a premonition in his heart, the captain's time is not long
On the boundless wilderness, the two continued to move forward.

The shadows in the sun were elongated, and behind them was a small mound of dirt.

What is buried inside is the only touch of tenderness that a rough man has.

In this way, the two walked for a long time.

"Captain, I'm so hungry." The rookie mourned as he looked at the corn sack carried by the captain.

"Persevere, I will go out soon, and I can't open the bag until the last moment."

So the two moved on.

What's ahead?Are you really going to go out soon?
Nobody knows.

The rookie knew that the captain must be right.

But the captain didn't know if he was right.

He can only do it towards the only possibility.

The rookie followed the captain like a follower. He looked at the shriveled bag carried behind the captain, which was the last bit of cornmeal they had left.

It is also the last hope.

The wilderness is still endless.

I don't know how long they walked, but their speed gradually slowed down.

The captain's complexion became extremely pale and haggard without knowing when.

He had lost too much blood in the past few days, and could not get enough rest and nutrition.

He finally couldn't hold it anymore.

Finally the captain also fell down.

The rookie half-kneeled beside the captain, his face full of sadness.

"Captain, don't go, I'm the only one left when you go."

The captain smiled slightly, and the color in his eyes began to fade.

Before this rough man left, what he thought of in his heart was still the woman who was buried with his own hands.

He was actually ashamed of her.

From the very beginning, he knew where to find food in the boundless wilderness.

And making corn paste is the food that overdraws the body's energy the least.

But she didn't say anything, and he didn't stop her.

After all, someone has to sacrifice, and the traces written by fate are always like this.

When the woman is gone, so is the rough man.

If we all get together in Jiuquan, this can be regarded as a kind of reunion.

Thinking of this, the captain showed a slight smile on his face, and finally he left.

"The bag must not be opened until the last moment"

This is the last order left by the captain to the rookie.

The rookie stood up, with a straight posture, and said: "Squad of Obstinate Stone, rookie Luo Ping, promise to complete the task!"

After burying the captain, the rookie continued on the road.

From a lot of people to only him in the end.

The road is long and lonely.

And the bag on his back is the rookie's last hope.

On the long road, the feeling of hunger kept coming, and he thought about opening the bag of cornmeal behind him countless times.

But thinking of the captain's order, he still held back.

He also knew that if the last hope was gone.

Then he really couldn't get out of this wilderness at all.

I don't know how long it took.

It could be an hour, it could be a day.

In the rookie's gradually blurred vision, he saw a building.

Not far away, there were a few dark shadows wandering around, slowly approaching him.

At the last moment before falling, in the remaining consciousness, the rookie vaguely heard these few words.

"It's saved, it's still alive, it's still alive."

"It's really hard to imagine that someone came out of this forbidden land."

"But what is he carrying on his back, why is it a bag of dry soil?"

At the last moment, the rookie finally came out and he was saved.

But what he didn't expect was that the hope he was carrying behind him, the hope that kept him going, was actually a bag of soil.

Perhaps he was lucky that he didn't open the bag early.

If he had opened the bag early because he couldn't resist hunger, he, a little rookie, would have stayed in the wilderness.
And from the moment he walked out of the wilderness, the rookie was no longer a rookie.

According to rumors, everyone who walks out of the forbidden place will receive different gifts depending on the suffering they have suffered.

This is the gift of fate to the brave.

Or the improvement of strength, speed, vision and other strengths.

Or get a different object.

On a piece of information, it is recorded as follows:
Team Stubborn, rookie Luo Ping, walks out of the forbidden land [Lost Wilderness].

Gain the ability [Perseverance].

Obtain [Hopeful Soil], sequence 206.

In this way, the last spark of the stubborn stone team was saved, and the team was reorganized. With the blessing of "Perseverance", they completed one task after another and won countless medals.

It's just that in the uninhabited [Lost Wilderness], there are two small mounds that have always existed.

The wind and the sun have not cut it.

With the blessing of [Persistence], these two small mounds are more like hard rocks.

It ends with the last sentence of the old man on the podium.

Everyone in the audience was silent.

It turned out that the bowl of corn mush that I didn't care about in my eyes was once all the hope of some people.

I have supported some people through that long period of loneliness.

And behind the corn mush, there are thousands of sacrifices for it.

Ordinary and ordinary, burning hard, blooming the last candle.

Gradually, the central LCD screen flickered again.

A photo appears above.

There are two mounds next to each other, and in front of them is a thick green cornfield.

Silence, silence, the sleeves of freshmen kept raising and falling, tears like a child who failed to live up to expectations.

"The lights of the city at dawn, there is always a halo that is falling, imitators one after another, roles that no one cares about."

In the lecture hall, the music of "The Unknown" slowly sounded.

".What did you become in the end, burning gorgeous fireworks, blooming once is enough, what do you want."

"Who am I, the unknown person, it doesn't matter if I forget anyone, who didn't work hard until the end of life."

"Who am I, the unknown, it doesn't matter if I forget anyone, keep chasing, whose glory is not accompanied by tears."

"Maybe very tired and exhausted, maybe humble and do nothing for a lifetime."

"Everyone is not born the same, even though I am called Nobody!"
