The road from Africa to Europe

Chapter 1036
windy!Only then can there be a situation where a good wind sends me to Qingyun (1) by force. You must know that there is a saying in later generations: Standing on the wind, pigs can fly, not to mention that they are much more capable than pigs. A person with a healthy body can naturally fly higher.

Now people in the island country feel that they are standing on the cusp of the wind and are about to take off.The ambitious JUN side of the island country has already started the plan, and has achieved phased victories, directly destroying a certain base, which can be said to have dealt a severe blow to the New World.

For a while, the people of the island country felt that they were really good at it, as if the whole island country had started to take off as a whole.Taro and his son, who originally had great ambitions, are naturally the kind of extreme fanatics, and they also want to take off with the wind.

fly fly fly!Ling Xiao looked at it with a sneer. Indeed, even pigs can fly while standing on the air vent. It is only after the pigs fly that they realize that they cannot stay on the air vent all the time. It won't be far, and it may even become a stepping stone for others.There is an old saying in Kyushu: the higher you stand, the harder you fall!Then the higher you fly, the more likely you will fall to your death.

Taro and his son had no idea that someone was secretly trying to deal with them. They were very busy, because it was time to bet on the national fortune, and they had to quickly follow the high-level people to bet.Those who knew what was going on felt that they would win again in the duel. They had won the bet three times before, so this time they would naturally win again, and the development of the situation was still very good.

Ling Xiao watched this scene secretly and smiled. This is the last madness of the island country, right?Half a year later, the New World began to retaliate on a large scale, but now the islanders naturally don't know about it, and each of them regards a certain person's idea as the best suggestion.

Of course, Ling Xiao also knows that the attack on a certain port is an act that the island country has to implement. You must know that the island country that is dedicated to establishing a certain circle has too much appetite and the front line is too long, and even captured the original island for various reasons. In the Indochina Peninsula, which is controlled by Western countries, it aroused the anger of the New World and began to impose sanctions.

The embargo made the island country very sad. You must know that two participating countries had signed a non-aggression treaty before that, which prevented the island country from going north, and the embargo made it even more difficult for the island country to invade.All aspects seem to be stuck by the New World. Only island nations with very few resources will take risks. Those who want to intimidate the New World don’t care about the Indochina Peninsula.

It is a pity that the people of the New World were extremely angry after the XX Port incident, because the behavior of the island country involved the interests of the New World, and in addition, many New World citizens died in the XX Port incident, which finally aroused the anger of the people of the New World, leading to the eventual Full participation in the war.

As an outsider, Ling Xiao can see very clearly that the good days of the island people are not long, and in the end the island country is a defeated country.And Ling Xiao didn't care about the situation of the islanders, but stepped up to get out the cultural relics one by one. Those people were busy betting on the country's luck during this period, and didn't notice the loss of good things at all. They thought that the jewel thieves were operating in other countries In the middle, no one was on guard at all, so Ling Xiao got a lot of good things very quickly.

After searching out the good things stolen from the island country, Ling Xiao is going to send Etsuko's remains back to Kyushu. Since she is from Kyushu, it is natural to let her return to her hometown, so she will find a chance to pick up Etsuko's bones. The melted bones were broken in many places.

Ling Xiao naturally knew it would be like this, because the little girl had only one thought before she died, and she didn't want to live anymore, so she was so cruel to herself, she jumped towards a pile of rocks, her head was still facing down, and she died without hesitation.Because otherwise, she might not be able to die. She would rather break herself to pieces than live in such a humble and humiliating life.Ling Xiao specially recited the Sutra of Rebirth, and then turned those bones into ashes, put them in a jar and brought them back to Kyushu.

Before going back to Kyushu, Ling Xiao planned to visit Etsuko's adoptive mother Hanako. After all, from the books left by Etsuko, she still missed Hanako very much, the only woman who gave the little girl warmth in that family.

I believe that if Etsuko knew the truth, she probably wouldn't ignore Hanako, right?The girl who was fixed at the age of 16 is a very kind girl. Thinking of this, Ling Xiao is still going to see Hanako. Speaking of which, she has been imprisoned for several years, and she doesn't know what happened.

It took Ling Xiao some time to find the place where Huazi was banned. Who would have thought that a lady from a noble family would be left in such a remote place?The whole house was dilapidated. Ling Xiao saw a woman in a very simple Japanese room. She was lying on the tatami and covered with an old quilt. Her body was dry and thin, her hair was gray, her eyes were closed, and her breath Also a little weak.

Is this Hanako?Ling Xiao took a closer look. If she hadn't studied medicine, she would not only look at people's faces, but also know how to look at their bones. I'm afraid she wouldn't be able to tell that her face was similar to Hanako in the photo.

Is this still the third lady who used to look good?I still remember that Hanako who took a photo with Etsuko was still a middle-aged woman who still had charm, and she was considered a beauty, but now her beauty has disappeared, leaving only an aging woman who looks older than her husband, Obviously she is more than ten years younger than her husband.

Why!In this era, women in the island country are restrained, no less than women in Kyushu today. Even if the so-called noble lady is rejected by her husband, the end is still very bad. That man is really cruel, no matter what, Hanako used to It's his wife, but they are sent directly to remote places, where there are not many people, and if they want to go back, they have to be picked up, or they have to go out by themselves.

No wonder Hanako didn't go back after arriving here, Etsuko missed it very much, but as a daughter, Etsuko didn't have the ability to bring Hanako back.

Ling Xiao looked at it for a while, but Hanako didn't notice it at all. She must be too tired, even if she was taken away, she might not be able to wake up.It's a rough place, cold and humid, in this wretched place.Moreover, Ling Xiao also felt that this place was too unsafe to live in, because the door of the Japanese room would open as soon as it was pushed, and it was too unsafe for a single woman to live in it.

I'm afraid that Hanako's life has been very difficult these years, Ling Xiao has no sympathy for this, because thinking of what happened to Etsuko, she doesn't have much sympathy for this Hanako.Without her, perhaps Etsuko would still be alive in this world, with parents, siblings and siblings.

Since Hanako treated Etsuko pretty well, and she was also punished, Ling Xiao would not treat her very well. She also wanted to know how Etsuko came to the island country, and the only person who knew was Hanako, so she had to get an answer anyway. The original owner wanted to know, and the Lin family also wanted to know, so she planned to have a good talk with Hanako.

Thinking of this, Ling Xiao went to get the person in charge of Hanako first. This is an old couple, one with a broken leg and one blind eye, which made their sleep worse, so that no one can disturb her conversation with Hanako, Ling Xiao didn't want others to know about her arrival.

Following Ling Xiao's intention to increase the footsteps, Hanako who heard the sound did not move her body, but her body tensed up unconsciously. Ling Xiao felt something was wrong when she saw this, as if she had been hurt in some way.

Thinking that Ling Xiao here has become a bit like the original owner, and his figure is much taller than the original owner. The changed Ling Xiao looked at Hanako who had woken up but still didn't want others to know that he was awake, reached out and knocked door, and said, "Are you Etsuko's mother Hanako?"

She speaks fluent island language, Hanako's body trembled when she heard the knock on the door, and she tried hard to wrap herself in the quilt, muttering something nervously.Seeing this, Ling Xiao's heart sank, and Hanako's experience was probably very bad.

Therefore, when she spoke out, she directly said Etsuko, which made Hanako's body pause, as if she heard something, and wanted to sit up all of a sudden, but her hands and feet were a little weak. Coupled with the wrapping of the quilt, she couldn't break free for a while, and she sat down after a while. stand up.

Her whole body movements were a little slow, and she squinted her eyes to glance at Ling Xiao. With a very haggard face, she found that she couldn't see clearly the person not far from her. who.

For a moment, she couldn't remember whether she had heard this voice before, but thought how could anyone know Etsuko—her daughter, if she thought she could return to her daughter at the beginning, then she who had experienced the wind and rain would know? Maybe when she goes back, she is no longer the noble lady she used to be, but
So who will find it?Is it Etsuko?With a bit of vigilance, Hanako looked at Ling Xiao. It is rare to see outsiders coming to this remote place. Anyway, she finally waited for someone and mentioned her daughter Etsuko. Maybe this time she can let her Get rid of this stagnant place, she really hates it, she never thought that she would live such a humble life before.In the past, she never thought that people could live in more pain, so that the previous pain was insignificant.

She really didn't know who Ling Xiao was, and she wanted to test him out of instinct, but she was even more numb because she was too tired to live. The reason why she lived was to wait for someone, It's just that time has passed, and she can't wait any longer.

Who is this guy?It doesn't matter whether the intention is good or bad. Does a person who has no love in life care about any calculations?She has nothing left to be calculated by others, maybe this is a chance to escape from this filthy world.

Thinking clearly, she stretched out her hands, and said repeatedly: "Who are you? How did you come here? Who are you, Etsuko? Tell me quickly, I've been waiting for too long, how is Etsuko?"

Although she doesn't know what will happen to Etsuko, she generally knows that without her protection, Etsuko's life will be even more difficult, hey!The life of a woman!
