Don't forget it, Dad! Isn't it enough to kneel down for you?
Chapter 413 Back home
Chu Jiaojiao took out the soul-summoning banner and collected them all. She also counted them all to make sure that no one was left out before leaving.
"I'll let everyone out when we get home."
She explained to the spirit-calling banner.
"Okay." A cheerful voice came from inside, slowly trusting her.
Chu Jiaojiao took a deep breath and became more determined. She must bring them back safely.
In addition to their souls, there are also their bones.
But this is a big project.
Just then, a phone call came in. It was from Mr. Huo, asking her where she was.
Chu Jiaojiao's brows twitched slightly, and she told the story in general. Of course, she skipped Tianhao's matter and only said that she wanted to take some of the hero's remains home.
In fact, the authorities have been doing this over the years.
But searching is also a difficulty, and she has a way to find them all.
On the other side, when Mr. Huo heard this, his expression became much more serious.
"Okay, I understand. Wait for me a moment."
Chu Jiaojiao didn't know what he asked her to wait for, but soon, a new number called her, "Hello, this is Huo Yingming. Where are you now? Send me your location."
Huo Yingming? Huo Kun and his family's father? He was also her nominal second uncle.
Chu Jiaojiao raised her eyebrows slightly, said nothing, and told him the address.
Huo Yingming's voice was crisp and clear. "Okay, wait a moment. I'll be there in about an hour."
After saying that, he hung up the phone.
An hour later, Chu Jiaojiao was sitting by the river eating melon seeds when she suddenly heard a roar from above. She looked up and was stunned.
There were more than a dozen helicopters above, and people were constantly sliding down from them along ropes.
After landing, they quickly lined up.
A middle-aged man in military uniform, looking heroic and somewhat similar to Huo Yingjie, walked over. His sharp eyes looked around and fell on Chu Jiaojiao.
"Jiaojiao?" Although the tone was inquiring, the attitude was firm.
Chu Jiaojiao blinked and stood up, "It's me."
Huo Yingming nodded slightly, "You said you can find all their remains?"
Chu Jiaojiao nodded, "Yes."
"Not one left behind?"
"Correct."
"Okay." Huo Yingming nodded, "Let's get to work."
Just a few more questions?
Chu Jiaojiao couldn't help but look at him curiously again.
Compared to Huo Yingjie who always doubted her at the beginning, he was more pleasing to the eye.
But Chu Jiaojiao didn't say this.
She took out the compass, thought for a moment, and then picked up some stones from the ground, placing one on the ground from time to time.
She said, "Where I put the stones are where there are bones. Be careful when you dig."
Huo Yingming nodded, "Yeah."
They would do it without her telling them.
Qingfeng and the others did the same thing, dividing the work and getting busy.
Other soldiers who got off the helicopter also started to move.
After Chu Jiaojiao and the others found their spots, they also helped with the work.
Corpses were dug out one after another.
The atmosphere at the scene also became heavy.
Chu Jiaojiao didn't say anything and helped dig the soil silently.
Lin Guo was watching from the side, his eyes red but with a hint of relief.
They were finally able to go home.
With the remains of nearly 10,000 people, this is bound to be a huge project.
They dug for more than a month before they were finally about to finish.
There are still a dozen or so that have not been found. It is said that there was a flood here and washed away some of the bones.
As for where it rushed to, no one knew.
The ghosts holding the spirit banners all said, "Why not? Let's not look for it anymore. After all, the little girl said she has a way to bring our souls back. That's enough."
Lin Guozheng didn't say anything, he just looked at Chu Jiaojiao quietly.
Chu Jiaojiao continued searching with the compass in hand. She said, "No, we must bring back all the remains of everyone. Not a single one can be left behind."
"The soul must return, and the body must return too. We must leave a memory for future generations. This is not only for you, but also for ourselves."
It’s just a matter of looking a little harder. It’s not like she can’t find it.
Hearing this, all the ghosts in the soul-calling banners fell silent, and their eyes turned red.
"Who says today's young people are getting worse and worse? I think today's kids are getting better and better."
Someone suddenly said.
Lin Guozheng heard it, looked at Chu Jiaojiao, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Chu Jiaojiao waved her hands, not taking credit for it. "I'm already a very bad person. There are many people in my generation who are better than me!"
She is not a good person.
She still has some self-awareness.
Her words made everyone laugh.
Huo Yingming couldn't help but look up at her, as if thinking about something.
This girl is really like what my elder brother said, she doesn't follow the beaten path.
It's quite fun.
Their shoes were almost worn out before Chu Jiaojiao finally stopped at a place and said, "There is a corpse here."
Huo Yingming didn't ask her how she knew and started to move.
Chu Jiaojiao didn't go over, her eyes fell on the river beside her, "There's more down there, I'll go look for it."
After saying that, she jumped in directly.
Huo Yingming's eyelids jumped. This girl!
How can she be so bold? It’s not her turn to go down.
But Chu Jiaojiao didn't care, because she was the only one who could find it accurately.
However, the corpses were stuck in the mud underneath, making it very difficult to collect them. Chu Jiaojiao spent a lot of effort before she finally collected all the corpses.
Seeing that she finally came out, Huo Yingming breathed a sigh of relief. With a cold face, he grabbed her hand and pulled her ashore.
"Next time, don't go down by yourself. Let me do it."
Chu Jiaojiao shook her head. "It's okay. If you can't find it, have you dug it out here? Let's move on to the next one."
She didn't even give him a chance to say anything more and used a drying talisman to dry her clothes.
Huo Yingming looked at her, opened his mouth, but finally swallowed his words, nodded silently, and continued searching behind her.
Actually, what my brother said is not entirely correct.
The eldest brother said that this child is a little narrow-minded. He looks pretty good and is obviously a very kind-hearted person.
He said she was narrow-minded, but didn't he have any problems himself?
He offended the little girl, so couldn't the child take revenge?
Who is so petty after all?
Unbeknownst to Huo Yingjie, Huo Yingming had already completely sided with Chu Jiaojiao.
They searched for another ten days before they finally found all the remaining dozen or so corpses.
"Let's go." Huo Yingjie looked at Chu Jiaojiao and said.
Chu Jiaojiao nodded slightly, and waited until all the corpses went up first before she went up.
When we flew into China, the sun was rising and a new day had arrived.
Chu Jiaojiao took out the spirit-calling banner, placed it on the window, and said softly, "Let's go home."
After decades, I'm finally home!
