Chapter 119

At two or three o'clock in the morning, Meng Youcheng was awakened by the sound of a flute.

The sound was gentle and melodious, very pleasant to the ear, but for Meng Youcheng, it was still noise and made it difficult for him to fall asleep.

He moved his eyelids slightly, his expression was very irritable, he sat up and looked out the window. He saw a black figure standing on the building opposite, holding a long flute and playing a tune...

Meng Youcheng looked at the two people beside him...

Xu Guo slept very soundly, especially after hearing the sound of the flute, his face, which had been gloomy just now, instantly relaxed.

Compared to him, Fu Lian was much worse. It was obvious that the sound of the flute was more annoying to him than the noise. He tossed and turned in bed, unable to sleep, and had no choice but to close his eyes tightly...

Still can't fall asleep?

Meng Youcheng looked at the man on the building, feeling a little confused.

Who is playing the flute there in the middle of the night?

The man sighed, no longer in the mood to sleep, put on his shoes, and walked out the door...

……

It was very quiet outside. Apart from the chirping of cicadas and the strange calls of some small insects, the only sound was the melodious flute sound.

The patrolling warriors also deliberately slowed down their steps to make as little noise as possible...

Most people fell asleep to the sound of the flute. It seems that the song played by that person has a calming effect.

Meng Youcheng came to the building and saw the man as he wished.

He was wearing a black suit and a white cloak with two big words written on it: "Guardian"!

He is Huo Siquan.

The commander held the flute in both hands, his fingers constantly pressing the holes, blowing slowly, his eyes slightly closed. Under the moonlight, he looked particularly dazzling...

Huo Siquan noticed the noise, turned his head to look at him, and opened his eyes slightly, "Major General...can't you sleep?"

Meng Youcheng was stunned for a few seconds, "Oh, I..."

"Is it because of the blow job?"

Huo Siquan had a cold expression, but there was a hint of doubt in his eyes. "The music I played can calm the nerves and help warriors sleep. Maybe it's because you are too powerful, so this music is just noise to you, right?"

Meng Youcheng walked over and asked, "Why are you playing the flute so late at night?"

"Because I couldn't sleep..."

Huo Siquan looked into the distance, revealing an inexplicable emotion in his eyes, "Most of our warriors here can't sleep, and they are often awakened by nightmares. Most of the warriors here have broken families because of mutants. For this reason, I specially learned this song. Every morning, I will play this song for them here..."

"I also hope that they can have a good dream and reunite with their deceased family members in the dream."

Meng Youcheng thought for a moment...

He didn't know how to answer this question. After all, he was not part of the game, and he had been in this world for less than a month. He didn't know much about the changes in this world...

Unable to perceive the potential for good and bad, joy and sorrow.

He had no choice but to shift his gaze and saw the jade pendant on Huo Siquan's waist. "Your jade pendant... is quite beautiful... but why do I feel like it's missing half of its original size?"

Huo Siquan quickly covered his jade pendant and was stunned for a few seconds.

His jade pendant was a green dragon, but only half of it. Logically, there should be the other half, also a green dragon.

"it……"

Before he could finish his words, a sound of slow footsteps suddenly came from behind Meng Youcheng...

Meng Youcheng looked back and asked, "Why are you here?"

Fu Lian sighed in exasperation, "Damn it... I don't know which psychopath played music in the middle of the night. I couldn't sleep at all! I finally had a great dream, but damn, he woke me up!"

"I want to see who the hell is this psychopath! He's not sleeping in the middle of the night and playing the flute here!"

Huo Siquan in the back waved the jade flute in his hand and said, "I'm sorry, this song of mine is a lullaby for the warriors, but for you mutants, it's an extremely unpleasant noise..."

When Fu Lian heard this, his face suddenly fell.

He turned around, found a chair, sat on it, and waved his hands irritably, "Well... who said this is your territory? I really can't control it, damn it... Forget about not being able to sleep, it just so happens that I haven't looked at the sky, so it's a good thing to be here and look at the sky leisurely and elegantly."

Huo Siquan didn't want to look at him directly, but gently rubbed the flute in his hand...

"This is my territory, so naturally I have the final say."

Huo Siquan picked up the jade flute and was about to continue playing...

Fu Lian sat up straight and looked at the jade pendant on the commander's waist. "Hey, your jade pendant is very beautiful. I heard from your warriors that it was given to you by your sweetheart, right?"

Huo Siquan ignored him and was about to continue blowing...

The young man spoke again, "Why do you keep looking over there? Is there something over there? Or... does the lover you've been thinking about live over there?"

Huo Siquan was obviously not in the mood to play the flute...

He sighed heavily, still looking forward...

Meng Youcheng then noticed something was wrong. From the beginning till now, the commander's gaze seemed to have never left the distance. At first, Meng Youcheng just thought it was a matter of habit...

Later, after listening to Fu Lian's advice, he realized that the location the commander was looking at was area A2!

In that place, there is a heavy iron gate. This is the only way to area A2, and it is also the gate that will only be opened after 15 days.

The iron door was tightly closed, completely isolating area A1 from area A2 and was impenetrable.

Could it be...? !

Fu Lian smiled and continued, "The person you like...isn't he right across the street? According to your identity, you can't leave here until the mutants are eliminated. But why doesn't he come to find you?"

"Is it because he is an ordinary person and the journey is too long and full of dangers, so he dare not come, or is his identity the same as yours and there is a reason why he cannot come?"

Huo Siquan still didn't turn around, looking at the big iron gate...

Fu Lian took a closer look at his jade pendant. "Dragons... should they be twin dragons? Your partner... isn't he also a man?"

Huo Siquan grabbed Xiao's hand more and more tightly, turned his head and glanced at him, his expression still cold, "If you have time to think about me here, you might as well think about your own situation, how to escape? How to survive?"

Fu Lian raised his lips slightly, "I'm not going to escape, and I don't want to escape. Don't think too much. I like men too. See... the major general next to me, I like him very much..."

Meng Youcheng looked embarrassed...

Why did the attention shift to me again?!

Huo Siquan glanced at Meng Youcheng...

The man waved his hands hastily and explained, "Don't listen to this guy's nonsense. He just likes to talk nonsense. He holds a grudge against me because I arrested him, and he always wants to stir up trouble..."

Huo Siquan still had no expression on his face. "Whether you like it or not, it doesn't matter. Just Major General, don't forget your mission. All the warriors have been displaced and forced to separate from their families because of the mutants. How many innocent people have died at the hands of the mutants? So I hope that Major General will not forget your original intention."

Meng Youcheng was just about to answer...

Fu Lian said with a shameless smile, "Don't worry, our Major General doesn't like me, and he won't give up the world for me. I am a poor person, unrequited love, so, Major General, do you feel the same as me, or?"

Huo Siquan still didn't respond to his question.

Fu Lian thought for a moment, "I am about to die. I might not live past tomorrow. Please satisfy my curiosity. I haven't killed many people, but I know that most people want me to die, so I don't regret it..."

"Can you take pity on me, a poor man?"

Huo Siquan hesitated for a long time, and finally said, "I am different from you. It's not unrequited love. It's my problem. I didn't fulfill his promise, so we will never see each other again in this life."

Fu Lian immediately became interested, "So...?"

The commander sighed and looked into the distance. "He and I have known each other since we were very young. Later, we entered area A4, a famous training ground, and prepared to defend our country together..."

"Later, we fell in love with each other and expressed our feelings to each other, but our teacher, seeing our outstanding performance, arranged two positions for us, one is the captain of the A1 region, and the other is the captain of the A2 region..."

"If we accept this position, it means we will never see each other again in this life. He said we should leave here and go to a place where no one knows us and start over. I agreed..."

"We agreed on a time and a place. On the way to that road, I saw an injured old man trapped in a corner by mutants. In order to avoid suspicion from my family, I spent a lot of time. I knew I couldn't stop, but my conscience told me..."

"I had to save the old man. I wrestled with the mutant and eventually won, but I was also seriously injured. I didn't go to the place we agreed on. My conscience told me that I couldn't leave here with a clear conscience until the mutants were eliminated."

"So I never saw him again after that."

Fu Lian thought for a moment, "So... you're afraid that he hates you?"

Huo Siquan did not respond.

Fu Lian added, "Write him a letter. Even though you can't meet him, you can always use carrier pigeons. Explain the reason to him. One day in the future, when the mutants really disappear, you will meet again and resolve the misunderstanding."

Huo Siquan lowered his head, as if thinking about something?
