Longmen Memoirs

The arrival of Frost Star did not come as a surprise.

Chen Mo had just noticed the way she looked at him, but Shuangxing was a little surprised. Surprised by Chen Mo's current dress, her eyes fell on the weapon Chen Mo was carrying.

"I thought you were going with Tallulah?"

"I let you down."

"Not to mention disappointed. Tallulah said that you are an experienced warrior. The camp is currently short of manpower. It is honestly a good thing that you can stay."

Although Frost Star's words were still cold, they were not very distant.

She held out her gloved right hand.

"Frost Star."

Chen Mo glanced at her and held her hand.

"Chen Mo."

Her hands were cold, and she could feel the special coldness even through her gloves.

"This way we know each other." She retracted her hand: "We plan to move the people in the camp to a nearby valley before noon. The snow monsters have scouted that place in advance. It is very hidden. After the personnel transfer is completed, the place will be deliberately Being exposed to the sight of the pickets makes them think that the infected people have moved to other places with the guerrillas.”

"Is this your plan?"

Chen Mo suddenly remembered that he had tentatively asked Shuangxing about their next plan for the meeting, but the white rabbit did not answer at that time and asked him to ask Tallulah instead, but now it was she who told him this herself. .

Shuangxing seemed to have thought of the same thing, looking at Chen Mo with a hint of complexity in his gray eyes.

"Tallulah said she can trust you. Since she chose to trust you, I believe her." Frost Star said: "The guerrillas will use the radio to keep in contact with us. After Ursus's attention is diverted, we will take the camp across Solawol River, diverted to the vicinity of the Ural Mountains.”

"how long?"

"At the current speed of travel, it will take at least half a month."

"In other words, they will contain the advance team of the Fourth Army for at least half a month."

"How do you say it's the advance team?"

"If I were the commander of the Fourth Army, I don't think that annihilating an armed infected organization would require the action of the regular labor force."

Froststar was silent for a while.

She didn't dwell on the issue.

"The faster we go, the safer the guerrillas and Tallulah will be." Froststar said: "The sentries and pickets in Ursus rarely patrol in winter. Let's choose a remote route to meet them. The probability is very low.”

"Can the food in the camp last for half a month?"

"Nothing unexpected happens."

"That doesn't sound like good news."

Shuangxing didn't refute, this was indeed not good news, but they had no other way at the moment.

The days of waiting are always unsettling and boring.

The infected in the camp moved to a valley. Froststar sent several infected warriors disguised as fleeing miners and fled into a nearby village, but they found nothing.

The pickets only came in the afternoon. They searched for the traces deliberately left by the snow monsters on the ground and found the previous camp.

The snow monsters crawled in the snow and watched their every move, until they set fire to the village before leaving. The burning flames melted the snow on the ground, just like melting the infected people who were covered with crystals, which foreshadowed the Ursus treated them the same way.

The snow monster lying next to Chen Mo was called Yang Ge. Chen Mo had seen him before, but at that time he did not have the suppressed anger now. Maybe he really had the idea to rush out and fight the pickets who set fire to him.

But in the end he didn't.

Because this is not the first time, the snow monsters said that this was also the case in their previous residences. It is better to say that as long as a gathering place of infected people is discovered, it will inevitably be set on fire.

The pickets used to call their group of infected people hiding rats, while most people in the snowfield called the pickets black bugs.

The snow monsters later mysteriously told Chen Mo that Frost Star also had a name.

The Grim Reaper of Winter, that's how the enemies on the pickets called Froststar.

Chen Mo felt that the white rabbit had nothing to do with the God of Death except that it was a bit colder. However, the snow monsters agreed that this title sounded very majestic, but they never dared to mention it in front of Frost Star.

In fact, Chen Mo himself also had a title, but Chen Mo couldn't tell anyone about that title.

Chapter 14 Snow Ridge and Valley ([-]): He is really cautious

In Chen Mo's opinion, the Snow Monster Team is a very special team.

They neither have the shadow of soldiers, nor do they behave coldly and harshly like mercenaries. This is a very special group, just as they are composed of a group of young infected people, so of course most of the young people have some thoughts that will be seen by later generations. To be naive, perhaps in the eyes of the old man, the snow monsters are far from being warriors. They are just a group of half-grown children who occasionally have random thoughts. Even if they take up weapons to participate in the battle, they can easily lose themselves in the battle.

Of course, maybe the snow monsters don't think so.

They feel that they have been able to bear the weight of this ideal. They feel that they are mature enough to be ready to accept the price they will pay for it in the future.

Among the large group of infected people in the snowfield who are trapped in misery and unable to control their own destiny, the snow monsters have undoubtedly gained the power to control their own destiny. When they take up arms, participate in battles, and fight against the Ursus pickets who persecute the lives of infected people, The team fought against the levies, and they even defeated the enemy on the battlefield, winning one victory after another with their own hands.

However, victory always tends to make people blind, making people unable to distinguish their own position and making wrong assessments of the future situation.

The word ideal is distant and illusory, frivolous but too beautiful.

Chen Mo is used to preparing for the worst. No matter how clear the situation is, he is used to considering the worst possibility.

"Oh, what a pity. This stronghold was just built not long ago, and those houses are all new."

"I thought you were used to it. Every time we were found by black bugs, it didn't end the same way."

After the pickets left, the two snow monsters looked at the village that was on fire. Black smoke filled the gray sky. The familiar scenes of their past life were gradually reduced to ruins in the fire, including the house that Chen Mo had only visited for two days. humble classroom.

They spent a lot of effort to build this backup stronghold, but it was burned to ashes by a fire from the pickets just a few days after it was used.

This result is inevitably a bit unacceptable to the monsters. No matter how many times it happens, they cannot calm down and get used to it.

"Go back, eldest sister is still waiting for news from us."

"I hope everything goes well with the guerrillas."

Yang Ge glanced in Chen Mo's direction. On the way back, he walked beside Chen Mo.

"Thank you for holding me down just now, thank you."

"No need." Chen Mo shook his head and replied: "The pickets should no longer pay attention to this village. To be on the safe side, we'd better not enter the village."

"You're saying they might be waiting for us to show up?"

"This possibility cannot be ruled out."

Yang Ge felt that Chen Mo was a little too worried. Based on their experience with the pickets, these tough and reserved guys didn't have the courage at all.

He didn't mention it again, and Chen Mo, who saw what he was thinking, didn't continue the topic.

"I've always wanted to ask, what's your relationship with Tallulah?" He asked again. Chen Mo looked at him doubtfully, and he explained: "I don't mean anything else, I'm just a little curious that Tallulah would go out of her way to do it for you. She came to us about something she had never done before."

Chen Mo, who was clearing the snow on his cloak, paused with his fingers.

"We're friends," he said.

The snow monster pushed aside the branches blocking the road in front of him.

"Friends? Are they the kind of friends we can understand?" Another snow monster pricked up his ears and asked.

"What do you mean?"

"Gee, he means it's like our relationship with Tallulah," Young said, nudging the yeti's arm with his elbow.

"Yes, that's what I want to say." The snow monster said.

Chen Mo didn't answer.

Yang Ge looked at Chen Mo, paused for a few seconds, then lowered his voice and asked uncertainly: "Or is there actually a difference?"

"Uh, well, there is a slight difference." Chen Mo replied, and before the two snow monsters could speak, he asked again: "There must be a lot of people in the camp who like her?"

Chen Mo has always been very good at changing topics.

The two snow monsters looked at each other.

"We don't know this very well. It's probably something like admiration. After all, Tallulah is actually quite beautiful and a nice person. I've always found her very attractive. I've seen people who look at her like this. However, no one has had the guts to say it out yet, and they probably think they will be rejected by her. Tallulah seems to have never considered this." He said, stopping for a while and then added in a weird tone.

"Before you come."

"so……"

The snow monster turned around and stretched out his hand. Chen Mo held his hand and climbed up the snow slope.

"We were all surprised when we heard the news, especially when we saw you coming back with her. Tallulah cared so much about a person's appearance. This is the first time we have seen each other." Another snow monster said: "...Take a ride. handle."

Chen Mo reached out and pulled him up.

"is it?"

"Do you always talk like this?" He raised his head, asked Chen Mo who said this, and released his palm.

"Ok?"

"You should be worried about Tallulah's situation over there."

"If it's useful." Chen Mo replied, and then said: "Before I came, you had been moving from camp to camp like this?"

"It's been like this in the past two years. Before Tallulah found the guerrillas, they weren't so frequent, but then as more people joined, they were exposed more and more often."

The snow monster sighed and said: "I heard that Tallulah has been planning to bring the guerrillas and the infected people in the snowfield to the south, but Big Daddy doesn't seem to agree. They talked about it several times without any results. In fact, we think Tallulah It is not unreasonable to say that the snowfield supplies are too scarce to support so many people, and we also really want to go to the south. The south is the center of Ursus. Sooner or later we will have to fight those Ursus troops. of."

"The army of Ursus in the south will definitely be more elite than those in the snowy plains. Maybe after arriving in the south, the situation they will face is much more dangerous than now." Chen Mo considered the words and changed to euphemisms to avoid arousing the resentment of the snow monsters. .

"We also know this, but there are also infected people in the south. Since they can survive in the south, we can too. Dad is really too stubborn sometimes. I think about it. Recently, my eldest sister likes to call him stubborn in private. Stay." they said.

Talking about Frost Star again.

The relationship between the Snow Monsters has always been very good, so much so that the name Snow Monster Team has been integrated into their hearts. Since they were young, after this group of infected children were rescued by the guerrillas, they have been training together and growing up together. Under the guidance of the guerrillas, he gradually became a warrior, and finally formed a snow monster team with Frost Star.

It is inevitable that they will not be affected by the guerrillas and the living environment, so the actions of the snow monsters to rescue the infected are, on the one hand, a common habit they have grown up with, and on the other hand, these young people also have a natural desire for injustice in their hearts. and eagerness to resist oppression.

But at the end of the day, do they really know what they’re doing?

Maybe the snow monsters can give an answer. They are changing their destiny and resisting evil, but this answer is too general and too broad.

Unlike Frost Star, this group of snow monsters were not very wary of Chen Mo. Perhaps it was because Frost Star chose to believe in Tallulah and Chen Mo, so this group of snow monsters who trusted Frost Star chose the same method as Frost Star.

Chen Mo couldn't help but think so.

The people's hearts on the snowfield made him feel a little too simple. This simplicity was not disgusting. On the contrary, living in the intrigues and intrigues made people tired.

Chen Mo thought that the south of Ursus was probably not as easy as the snow monsters imagined.

Chen Mo didn't mention this, because Chen Mo knew that even if he told the snow monsters, the snow monsters probably wouldn't care too much. Human beings are often like this. Before they have experienced it, it is always easy to over-trust their own judgment.

The snow monsters are a group of pure warriors. They don't have too complicated thoughts in their hearts. Perhaps only in this harsh environment of this cold and barren snowfield, people who join the group to stay warm in order to survive can have less worries. The battles and calculations, but once they arrive in a prosperous and warm place, such as Longmen.

Chen Mo thought of the guerrillas, and also thought of the Wendigo who claimed that he deserved to die, and was burdened with inner conflicts and a bloody and bumpy past. A seemingly complex and heavy person like him had established such a pure group that was completely opposite to himself.

It's strange, but it's natural.

But if they want to take the road of resistance, it is inevitable that one day, this purity will be forced to be dyed in various colors in the mud of the world. Those struggles, betrayals, conspiracies and slanders will overwhelm them and leave them too late. Do thinking.

The malicious intent that swept over them from nowhere was far less easy to deal with than they thought.

Maybe the Wendigos don't want them to accept this, sacrifice themselves for their ideals, and risk their lives. They are just trusting blindly, risking everything they have for an illusory and beautiful vision, and this road has no There is no regret at all.

Like a fox, or like Chen Mo himself before he was ten years old.

Chen Mo thought of Longmen again.

That seemingly beautiful city hides so many unknown darkness and past that are difficult to face in the shadows. Everyone’s joys, sorrows, and joys are so inconspicuous, and are easily submerged in the feasting and dancing of Longmen. In order to survive, , and become the kind of person Longmen needs.

Longmen City is just a microcosm that is not uncommon in this land.

"Isn't it fixed yet?"

In the temporary stronghold in the valley, Shuangxing opened the tent. There was a disassembled radio station on the work table inside the tent. Ilyich looked at Shuangxing who walked into the tent. The lamp light reflected Shuangxing's shadow and cast it on the wall of the tent. In front of him, Ilyich put down the soldering iron and shook his head.

"This model of radio is so old that we can't find a replacement circuit board here."

Ilyich was originally an electrical and mechanical maintenance worker in Mosokman City, which is a light industrial city. However, an Originium motor exploded and leaked in his factory, causing him to unfortunately contract Originium Disease. He hid and was found by the military police and put on a tractor that was sent to the mine.

It was also at that time that he, who originally thought he would work to death in the mines, was rescued by the guerrillas, so he stayed in the camp with nowhere to go. As an electrical and mechanical worker, he was among the infected people. He is considered a person with special skills. He is usually responsible for teaching other people in the camp how to maintain snowmobiles and power generation equipment. He is not considered a combatant.

"No, this is the only way we can currently communicate with the guerrillas. We must ensure normalcy no matter what."
