Chapter 86, Sebei

The other stragglers in the market town still don’t know what happened, the fence of the school hall is not high, it’s probably just an earth wall of about one meter seven.

So some people can tiptoe to see inside, the result is that they are shocked when they take a look, only to see two corpses lying in the backyard of the academy, and there is also blood constantly flowing out from inside the house.

For more than ten years, this is the first time that someone committed a murder in the school hall!

Of course, it was also because this matter was too odd that Yan Liuyuan was even more worried about Ren Xiaosu’s safety.

Wang Congyang quickly ran towards the barriers, he carefully opened the documents on the way and saw the words “178 sequence refuge barriers Zhang Jinglin”.

Wang Congyang immediately sucked in a breath of cold air, he had never seen such a document, general normal documents should not be to indicate the position and identity, and even labeled with the date of birth and photographs and so on to increase the degree of recognition.

But this document is different, as if everyone should know who the owner of the document is when they see it, and at this time, Wang Congyang remembered the legend of the person who disappeared for more than ten years in the 178 refuge barriers, and then accelerated his pace.

Only Wang Congyang’s tier was still too low, and he wasn’t sure if his guess was right or not.

Wang Congyang didn’t go to the wall administrators but drove directly to Luo Lan’s residence, in fact everyone knew very well that although Luo Lan’s identity was just a businessman, when something really big happened at the wall, it was better for everyone to look for Luo Lan, and all those wall administrators acquiesced to this fact as well.

Luo Lan’s residence is located in the center of the entire barrier, Wang Congyang entered the barrier after driving for nearly an hour, this is still the result of no pedestrians and vehicles on the streets in the dead of night.

When he arrived outside Luo Lan’s residence, it was more like a huge barracks than a residence.

At the entrance of this barracks, there was a stone monument with red inscriptions on it: military control area!

The soldiers of the Consortium Combat Brigade at the entrance were wearing black combat uniforms, everyone was loaded and ready to fight, and when Wang Congyang’s vehicle hadn’t even approached, he saw that the searchlights on the high wall of the barracks had already struck over.

Wang Congyang flashed his credentials at the entry point and said, “I’m Private Force Wang Congyang, I have an urgent matter to find Boss Luo, about the 178th Refuge Barrier.”

At this moment Wang Congyang even felt like there were no less than ten gun muzzles all pointing at him, someone from the consortium forces at the entrance walked over, their emotions seemed to have no ripples, “ID!”

The private forces were naturally inferior to the combat forces of the Qing Clan, so even if they were pointed at by guns, Wang Congyang didn’t dare to say anything.

Wang Congyang handed over both his and Zhang Jinglin’s documents, while the soldier in charge of checking him went back inside the gate, only to come back out after more than ten minutes, “Identity is correct, permission to pass.”

It was at this point that the doors of the military camp finally opened to Wang Congyang!

The Qing Clan’s armed forces have always been the best amongst the consortiums, with strict discipline and strong combat capabilities, but there was no martial law in the past, and it was only after the assassination of the refuge barrier manager by a transcendentalist that the major consortiums raised the level of martial law.

As a result, not long after Wang Congyang went in, the entire barracks lit up, and the neat footsteps coming out of the barracks made a roar, and the barricade residents near the barracks were awakened, and they still didn’t know what was happening in the barracks, but the footsteps were clearly the combat brigade assembling.

A black SUV winded out of the barriers, while it was followed by three military trucks, which were loaded with three combat squads.

“Is this a war?” Someone wondered when they saw this scene from their window.

“Who is Qing going to war with? But if we really want to go to war, it’s not like we’re only sending out this many people, right?” Someone else wondered, “The one sitting in the SUV just now seems to be Boss Luo? This guy hasn’t left the barracks for two years, what could have alarmed him?”

However, the one who was most shocked was still Wang Congyang, because just now, when he saw Luo Lan result in Zhang Jinglin’s documents, he jumped up like his butt was on fire.

Immediately after that, the entire barracks was as if it had entered a wartime state, and the sophisticated war machine was instantly unleashed.

It was only at this moment that Wang Congyang was certain that Zhang Jinglin might really be the person he had guessed!

If it was really that person, why would the other party appear here?

The Qing Clan Consortium’s convoy headed straight for the gates of the barriers, Yan Liuyuan was waiting as they stood in the courtyard of the academy, he suddenly looked back at Zhang Jinglin curiously, “Sir, what did you do before teaching?”

Yan Liuyuan also understood that Mr. Zhang’s identity was afraid to be big and scary.

Zhang Jinglin smiled and said, “A soldier.”

Yan Liyuan froze for a moment, this Mr. Zhang Jinglin did not look much like the soldiers he remembered, Yan Liyuan curiously said, “Then why didn’t you become a soldier?”

This question made Zhang Jinglin silent for a long time, it seemed that he himself had confusion in his heart, after thinking for half a day Zhang Jinglin replied, “Because war cannot save mankind.”

“Are you leaving?” Yan Liuyuan said curiously.

“Yes,” Zhang Jinglin nodded, “There are still people waiting for me in Sebei.”

At this time, Yan Liuyuan suddenly realized that before, when Zhang Jinglin chose Ren Xiaosu as a substitute teacher, he really wanted Ren Xiaosu to become the new teacher of the market town academy, because Zhang Jinglin had long planned to leave.

Even without what happened tonight, Zhang Jinglin was afraid that he wouldn’t stay here for long.

“Why do you suddenly want to return to Sebei?” Yan Liuyuan asked.

“Because this world …… is starting to become not quite the same, and I need to be with those who are waiting for me,” Zhang Jinglin explained.

“What’s in Sebei?” Yan Liuyuan pursued, he and Ren Xiaosu had never been to that kind of place, it was said that it was in the very northwestern part of the country.

Yan Liuyuan recalled a time when Mr. Zhang had wandered off during a lesson at the academy, and that day Mr. Zhang had looked at the sky outside the classroom and said, “In the spring in the north of Sebei the snow and ice have not yet melted, not a trace of greenery can be seen, it’s all wind and sand and loess, and the snow in the north of Sebei is a blanket of white, and mankind is very lonely.”

In that moment, although Zhang described the north of Sebei as bleak and cold, Yan Liuyuan was able to feel Zhang’s yearning and nostalgia for the north of Sebei, and only in retrospect did Yan Liuyuan understand that Zhang Jinglin came from there.

“What …… is there in Sebei to smoke?” Zhang Jinglin said and laughed himself, “Don’t be afraid later, they don’t dare to do anything to me, and in the end they can only honestly send me back to the 178th wall.”

“Well,” Yan Liu Yuan nodded, he said to himself that Ren Xiaosu would not be able to push him to do his homework in the future ah, this market town would not even have a teacher in the future.

But this time, when he thought of not having to attend classes, Yan Liuyuan wasn’t as happy as he used to be.
