After a great battle.
The facilities on the island station were basically destroyed, and large areas of forest turned into scorched earth. Fortunately, due to Xue Yun and Situ Feng's desperate counterattack, the casualties were not as heavy as imagined.
After Howard left, relief supplies from other garrison islands and headquarters successively arrived at "Wisteria Island".
Under the leadership of Franklin, everyone began to rebuild the station intensively.
As for Xue Yun and Situ Feng, they were moved to the newly built medical tent at the station and received all-round treatment from the medical team along with other injured patients.
A night without words, time flies by.
Suddenly waking up from the medical cabin, Xue Yun raised his hand and pushed open the semi-sealed door. He felt that the injuries on his body had almost healed. Apart from being slightly tired, there were no other serious problems.
"woke up?"
Inside the tent, lights flickered.
With a gray blanket draped over his shoulders, Situ Feng curled up and crouched in front of the heater, his eyes slightly narrowed into a straight line, looking at himself meaningfully.
He let out a long breath of mist.
After rolling out of the small medical cabin, Xue Yun moved his stiff limbs and shivered unexpectedly after feeling the low temperature around him.
For some unknown reason, the temperature on the island dropped sharply. The wind was biting and there were faint signs of snow.
He picked up a blanket, put it on his body and squatted down next to Situ Feng unceremoniously.
Stretching out his hands to bake in front of the stove, Xue Yun raised his head and asked, "How long have I slept?"
"About ten hours."
Handed over a cup of warm coffee.
Situ Feng raised his lips slightly and smiled: "Actually, I just woke up. As for this damn weather... it should be related to the battle last night."
The two of them attacked each other with the Wisteria Dragon King in the sky.
During this period, the power of various elements strangled together, causing abnormal atmospheric flow in this sea area, which caused a sudden change in temperature.
"Good guy."
Taking a sip of warm coffee, Xue Yun couldn't help but laugh and said: "No wonder they say that when the Night Watchman develops to the extreme, he will become an omnipotent god..."
"Destroy the world and change the climate."
Shaked his head.
Xue Yun sighed: "Isn't this something that only gods can do?"
"But we are human after all."
Put down your coffee cup.
Looking at the endless stream of people outside the tent, Situ Feng said thoughtfully: "People have seven emotions and six desires, which will lead to corresponding joys and sorrows..."
There was a pause.
The middle-aged man in front of him smiled bitterly, shook his head and said: "The gods above do not eat the fireworks of the world, they will only find these sufferings ridiculous and meaningless..."
"In fact, pain and suffering are also rare treasures in our short life. After all, only by learning from the pain can we grow and achieve something."
The howling cold wind blew across the garrison school grounds, the lights above the head shook violently, and the already dark light suddenly flickered.
Outside the tent, high-pitched shouts slowly sounded.
A large number of night watchmen gathered together and worked together to transport the ruins of the station out of this slightly desolate island.
The two looked at each other and smiled.
At the same time, he picked up the coffee in front of him and chose to clink the cups with great tacit understanding.
"What are your plans next?" Situ Feng asked.
"go home."
He raised his head and drank the coffee in the cup.
Xue Yun exhaled a hot breath and said with a hopeful face: "I have been wandering outside for more than half a year, and I don't know what the situation at home is like. It's time to go back."
Daxia Longdu——
This fortress city standing in the wilderness, no matter how big the problems are inside it.
In Xue Yun's heart, it is still his hometown that can never be replaced.
The wanderer is eager to return home.
However, before that, Xue Yun had to take a detour to the Imperial City and Hu Capital.
Xiao Wanzi's injury cannot be delayed any longer. He must find the legendary old blacksmith as soon as possible. No matter what, he must beg him to save Xuantian Longnu who is in a state of "life regression".
"how about you?"
Putting down the empty coffee cup, he turned to look at Situ Feng aside.
Xue Yun suddenly asked: "Do you want to continue to stay on this island?"
He was slightly startled.
Situ Feng couldn't help but feel stunned, and a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes.
"You know, the world is a big place."
Xue Yun raised his eyebrows and said eloquently: "With your strength, you should take the initiative to leave this sea area and go out to experience a wider world."
"The sacrificial system has now been abolished. It's time to untie your knot, feel the charm of the world, and live a good life for yourself."
I once witnessed the other party's unbearable past in the world of memory.
Xue Yun knew very well that Situ Feng had an almost obsessive obsession with Shan Ni.
However, you should always let go of what should be let go.
The sweetheart has passed away, and only by embarking on a new journey can Shanni's hard work be in vain.
I couldn't help but be stunned.
After a brief moment of astonishment, Situ Feng immediately smiled.
"I think that we should give up."
He waved his hand.
The reserved and elegant man in front of me murmured: "Just like your feelings for Longdu, this island also has a very unique meaning to me..."
After more than ten years of dedication and hard work, Situ Feng has long been accustomed to life here.
Relatively speaking.
No matter how wonderful the outside world is, it can't compare to the sunrise and sunset here.
What's more, the beautiful memories between him and Shanni still remain here.
"I, let go of the past..."
He shook his head hesitantly.
Situ Feng said with determination: "However, I can't let go of every plant and tree here."
As soon as these words came out.
Xue Yun couldn't continue to persuade him.
Originally, he had wanted to recruit Situ Feng into the "Dawn Walker" team, but unfortunately things didn't go as he wanted, so he had to give it up.
"Okay, everyone has their own ambitions."
He raised his hand and patted Situ Feng on the shoulder.
Xue Yun smiled heartily, curled his lips and said: "No matter what, we will always be good brothers. If you have time to come to Daxia Longdu in the future, I will be your host and treat you to a good meal!"
"What to eat?"
His eyes narrowed into a straight line.
Situ Feng joked: "Fish soup, or salted dried fish?"
The two looked at each other for a long time, and couldn't help but throw their heads back and laugh, which even raised the temperature in the tent a lot.
next moment--
Rapid footsteps suddenly came from outside the tent.
The tall Franklin walked into the tent with a sudden step and looked at the two people who were enjoying themselves. He couldn't help but froze for a long time and was speechless.
He raised his eyebrows.
Xue Yun immediately realized something and asked, "Has the spaceship arrived?"
"Um."
Nodding silently.
Franklin said bluntly: "A Harrier aircraft has docked on the campus. It's getting late. The president has specifically told you that after you regain your strength, you will be ordered to leave the 'Wisteria Island' station quickly."
Shrugging his shoulders.
Xue Yun pulled off the blanket on his back, stood up and said helplessly.
"Okay, it's time to go!"
"I'll see you off." Situ Feng also stood up and followed Xue Yun out of the simple medical tent.
Just walked out of the tent.
The sight in front of him immediately stunned Xue Yun on the spot.
In the cold wind.
More than a thousand night watchmen belonging to the "Wisteria Island" garrison base have already formed two regular formations, one on the left and one on the right, waiting in front of the medical tent.
Many of them still had bandages on their hands and feet.
Among them, there were many young and immature faces, and their expressions when looking at Xue Yun were full of inexplicable gratitude.
"Line up and stand at attention!"
Accompanied by Franklin's familiar commanding voice.
More than a thousand night watchmen stood at attention, and the sound of footsteps was deafening.
"salute--"
Boom~
Everyone raised their right hands and thumped their left chests hard.
He stared at the uniform team in front of him in stunned silence.
Xue Yun laughed dumbly and looked at Situ Feng beside him with a confused face.
"This is the courtesy you deserve." Situ Feng said with a smile.
Tilted his head.
Xue Yun smiled helplessly, and then walked towards the small spaceship in the center of the school field.
After the whole process, I accepted the gifts from everyone.
Boarded the spacecraft and turned on its own intelligent positioning system.
Xue Yun thought for a moment and finally entered the coordinates of the Great Xia Imperial City and Tiger Capital.
Rumble...
The high-energy-consuming magnetic levitation engine started immediately, and the transparent ripples spread out, instantly sending up smoke and dust all over the sky.
Under the watch of everyone, the small black spacecraft slowly ascended into the sky.
Sitting in the cockpit, Xue Yun extended his thumb through the ship window toward Situ Feng on the ground.
A whooshing sound~~
The spaceship in mid-air burst through the sky with a bang, turned into a dazzling beam of light, and disappeared in front of everyone's eyes.
On the school field.
Accompanied by Farraklin, Situ Feng still looked up at the sky, his eyes full of sympathy.
"Report!"
A newcomer who had just joined the station this year came running over panting.
After seeing the two people, he hesitated for a moment, and finally came to Situ Feng, with a nervous expression on his face: "Island Master...ah, no, Adjutant Situ, the headquarters of "Dongji Island" just sent This is an important instruction and needs to be reviewed by you in person!”
"Asshole!"
Situ Feng has not yet reacted.
Franklin was furious. He snatched the instruction document from the opponent's hand, raised his leg and kicked him on the butt.
"Who the hell did you call adjutant?!"
Franklin gritted his teeth, pointed at Situ Feng and roared loudly: "Listen clearly, the adjutant stationed at 'Wisteria Island' will always be me. He is the island owner, the island owner! Do you understand me?!"
Touching the sore buttocks, the newlyweds in front of him felt like crying.
It was obvious that Situ Feng was dismissed as the island owner by Howard on the spot, and he had no idea where he went wrong.
"It doesn't matter, they are just false names, don't worry about them!"
He waved his hands quickly.
Taking the instruction document from Franklin's hand, Situ Feng smiled bitterly and tore off the seal. After unfolding it and taking a closer look, his expression suddenly became solemn.
"What's wrong?" Franklin asked.
Frowning.
Situ Feng said with a solemn expression: "There is an order from the headquarters, ordering the island owners of each island to select a hundred elite garrison troops and go to Dongji Island in person in a week to assemble. It is said that they are preparing to carry out a special mission."
There are thirty-six garrisoned islands, and there is little communication between the islands.
This is the first time in the history of the "Alliance Association" that all members have gathered together.
"What is the mission content?" Franklin asked in surprise.
"The instructions did not clearly state the content of the mission, but the mission location has been marked."
Putting the instruction into Franklin's hands casually, Situ Feng looked at the distant sky, looking a little worried.
Take the instruction.
Franklin took a closer look and was stunned on the spot.
The mission location marked on the order was surprisingly a deserted valley outside the Great Xia Empire—Longdu City!
