"Ruoyun...why...why did you come..." Zhang Ling asked weakly.

Liu Ruoyun raised her head, looked into Zhang Ling's eyes, and said, "Because... I love you..."

Her cheeks flushed slightly and her eyes were full of tenderness.

Zhang Ling's heart trembled suddenly, and he seemed to see the gentle and virtuous woman in his memory, smiling at him.

"Ruoyun..." Zhang Ling stretched out his hand, wanting to touch Liu Ruoyun's face, but his hand fell down weakly.

"Brother Ling!" Liu Ruoyun held Zhang Ling's hand tightly, "Hold on, I will definitely rescue you!"

At this moment, a Japanese soldier suddenly jumped out from the side, raised his bayonet and stabbed Liu Ruoyun...

Liu Ruoyun was quick to push Zhang Ling away, but she herself failed to dodge. The bayonet pierced her left shoulder fiercely, and blood gushed out instantly.

"Ruoyun!" Zhang Ling's eyes were bloodshot. He tried his best and punched the Japanese soldier in the face, knocking him to the ground.

Liu Ruoyun groaned and fell to the ground.

Zhang Ling struggled to crawl to Liu Ruoyun, tore off the only piece of cloth left on his body, and pressed it on her wound.

"Ruoyun...how are you..." Zhang Ling's voice trembled, and his eyes were full of self-blame and pain.

Liu Ruoyun gritted her teeth, her face pale, but she still endured the pain and said: "I... I'm fine..."

"It's already this late, and you're still trying to be brave!" Zhang Ling looked at Liu Ruoyun distressedly, "Why did you take this knife for me..."

"Because... I don't want you to die..." Liu Ruoyun said weakly, her eyes began to blur.

Zhang Ling hugged Liu Ruoyun tightly, tears falling silently. He hated himself, hated himself for being incompetent, hated himself for not being able to protect her.

"Cough cough..." Liu Ruoyun coughed violently, blood gushed out of her mouth, staining Zhang Ling's clothes red.

"Ruoyun! Hold on! I will definitely take you out!" Zhang Ling shouted in despair.

Suddenly, he felt Liu Ruoyun's body tremble violently, and then she became motionless.

"Ruoyun! Ruoyun!" Zhang Ling shook Liu Ruoyun's body, but there was no response.

Liu Ruoyun is dead.

Zhang Ling's world collapsed at this moment.

He hugged Liu Ruoyun's cold body tightly, looked up to the sky and howled, his voice filled with grief and despair.

"what--"

A raging fire of revenge burned in his heart.

......

After an unknown amount of time, Zhang Ling slowly calmed down. He gently placed Liu Ruoyun's body on the ground, then stood up and picked up the submachine gun on the ground.

His eyes became cold and ruthless.

"Little devils, I want you to pay with blood!"

Zhang Ling picked up his submachine gun and fired wildly at the remaining Japanese soldiers.

His marksmanship was superb, and every bullet hit the target accurately.

The Japs fell one by one, and their screams echoed in the night sky.

Zhang Ling was like a killing god, reaping the lives of the devils.

He was so bloodthirsty that he completely forgot about the pain and fatigue.

He has only one goal, which is to kill all the devils and avenge Liu Ruoyun!

......

After the battle, Zhang Ling dragged his tired body back to Li Yunlong.

"Lingzi! You are really awesome! You killed so many Japanese soldiers by yourself!" Li Yunlong patted Zhang Ling's shoulder excitedly.

Zhang Ling didn't say anything. His eyes were empty and there was no expression on his face.

"Lingzi, what's wrong with you?" Li Yunlong noticed that something was wrong with Zhang Ling.

Zhang Ling took a deep breath and said slowly: "Old Li... Ruoyun... she... she is dead..."

Li Yunlong was stunned. The smile on his face disappeared instantly, replaced by shock and grief.

"How could this happen..." Li Yunlong muttered to himself.

Zhang Ling didn't say anything else. He turned and left, disappearing into the night.

Li Yunlong looked at Zhang Ling's departing back, his heart filled with worry.

He knew that Zhang Ling's heart must be filled with pain and hatred.

......

Zhang Ling was walking alone in the wilderness, and the figure of Liu Ruoyun kept appearing in his mind.

He recalled the scene of their first meeting, the little things they had experienced together, and the moment when Liu Ruoyun blocked the knife for him...

"Ruoyun...I will definitely avenge you! I will definitely kill all the devils!"

Zhang Ling swore silently in his heart.

He quickened his pace and walked towards the distance.

His figure gradually disappeared on the horizon.

......

A few months later, Zhang Ling joined the Eighth Route Army and became an excellent soldier.

He fought bravely, was extremely resourceful, and made many military achievements.

His name became the nightmare of the Japanese.

He killed countless devils.

He fulfilled his promise to Liu Ruoyun with his actions.

......

A year later, Zhang Ling received a secret mission to sneak behind enemy lines and assassinate a senior island army general.

This mission is extremely dangerous and there is a high risk of death.

But Zhang Ling took the task without hesitation.

Because he knew that only in this way could he better avenge Liu Ruoyun.

......

Zhang Ling disguised himself and sneaked into the enemy-occupied area.

He carefully avoided the patrolling Japanese and approached his target step by step.

Finally, he found the target's residence.

It was a heavily guarded villa.

Zhang Ling observed the terrain and formulated an action plan.

He decided to sneak into the villa and assassinate the target in the dead of night.

......

As night fell, Zhang Ling quietly approached the villa.

He climbed over the wall into the villa's garden, then hid behind a big tree and observed the situation around him.

The villa was brightly lit, with guards patrolling by from time to time.

Zhang Ling waited patiently for the opportunity.

......

Suddenly, he saw a familiar figure walking out of the villa.

That was... the rare book scene!

A rare scene, the notorious island army special forces commander, has caused heavy losses to the Eighth Route Army many times.

He was also one of the murderers of Liu Ruoyun.

“There is a road to heaven but you don’t take it, and there is no door to hell but you break in!”

A cold light flashed in Zhang Ling's eyes.

He quietly followed behind the rare book scene, ready to take action when the opportunity arises.

Rare Book walked out into the garden, lit a cigar and took a deep puff.

He seemed to have noticed something and turned around suddenly, looking in the direction where Zhang Ling was hiding.

"Who is there?"

Zhang Ling held his breath and did not move.

Rare Book narrowed his eyes and looked around carefully.

He slowly walked towards the big tree where Zhang Ling was hiding...

Liu Ruoyun's pupils suddenly shrank, and at the critical moment, she pushed Zhang Ling away. The bayonet cut through the air and pierced deeply into her left shoulder.

"Ruoyun!" Zhang Ling let out a heart-wrenching roar.

Liu Ruoyun groaned, clenched her teeth, and did not fall down. She shot back and killed the Japanese soldier.

More Japanese soldiers rushed up and surrounded them.

"It seems... we will all die here together today..." Zhang Ling laughed miserably, with blood continuously oozing from the corners of his mouth.

Liu Ruoyun didn't say anything. She protected Zhang Ling behind her. The submachine gun in her hand spewed flames. One after another, the Japanese fell under her gun.

She is like a god of war, guarding her beloved.

However, two fists are no match for four hands, the number of the devils is too large. Liu Ruoyun's body continued to gain new wounds, and her clothes were stained with blood.

She felt her strength slipping away bit by bit and her consciousness started to blur.

"Ruoyun...don't worry about me...just go...you are still young..." Zhang Ling said weakly.

"Shut up!" Liu Ruoyun roared, "I won't abandon you!"

She pulled the trigger slower and slower, with fewer and fewer bullets.

A Japanese officer walked over with a grin, raised the samurai sword in his hand and chopped towards Liu Ruoyun's head.

"go to hell!"

At this critical moment, a gunshot pierced the night sky.

"boom!"

The Japanese officer fell to the ground, and a bloody hole appeared between his eyebrows.

A figure slowly walked out of the darkness.

"Li...Li Yunlong?" Zhang Ling looked at the person who came in disbelief.

Li Yunlong grinned, revealing his big white teeth: "Damn it! I finally caught up!"

The soldiers behind him also rushed over and wiped out all the remaining devils.

......

Li Yunlong had Zhang Ling and Liu Ruoyun carried back to the base.

After a simple bandage, Zhang Ling's life was saved, but his body was still very weak.

Liu Ruoyun's injuries are also quite serious and she needs to rest for a while.

"Ruoyun...thank you..." Zhang Ling lay on the bed, looking at Liu Ruoyun, his eyes full of gratitude.

"Silly... why are you saying thank you..." Liu Ruoyun smiled gently, "I said... I will protect you..."

A warm current surged in Zhang Ling's heart. He held Liu Ruoyun's hand tightly and said, "Ruoyun... I..."

He wanted to say something, but didn't know how to start.

Liu Ruoyun seemed to see through Zhang Ling's thoughts. She gently placed her finger on Zhang Ling's lips and said, "Don't say anything... I know..."

Her cheeks flushed slightly and her eyes were full of tenderness.

Zhang Ling's heart trembled violently. He could no longer bear it and hugged Liu Ruoyun into his arms.

"Ruoyun...I love you..."

Liu Ruoyun didn't say anything, but just hugged Zhang Ling tightly, tears silently falling.

......

The next morning, when Zhang Ling woke up, he found that Liu Ruoyun was no longer around.

He was startled and quickly stood up and looked around.

"Ruoyun! Ruoyun!"

He called out anxiously, but no one responded.

At this time, Li Yunlong walked in.

"You're awake?" Li Yunlong said, "You're really lucky, you almost died there."

"Captain Li, where is Ruoyun?" Zhang Ling asked anxiously.

Li Yunlong sighed and said, "She's gone..."

"Gone? Where did they go?" Zhang Ling was stunned.

"She said...she wanted to take revenge..." Li Yunlong said, "She...she didn't want to live this kind of hiding life anymore..."

Zhang Ling's heart sank suddenly, he understood what Liu Ruoyun meant.

She wants to seek revenge on the islanders and avenge her dead relatives.

"She...it's too dangerous for her to go alone..." Zhang Ling said, "I want to go find her!"

Li Yunlong grabbed Zhang Ling and said, "You are crazy! Your wounds haven't healed yet! Are you going to die?"

"I don't care! I want to find her!" Zhang Ling struggled to get up.

"Calm down!" Li Yunlong roared, "You will only be a burden to her if you go! Do you think you can help her in your current state?"
