Traveling through the 1940s, the whole village was massacred at the beginning

Chapter 1137 Arrival in Jinling

Seeing that the number of followers had suddenly decreased from more than a dozen to four, a reduction of more than half, Jiang Jiyun stopped paying attention to other matters.

She held her uncle's hand tightly and urged, "Let's go, let's go, stop dawdling, let's get in the car and get going, the sooner we leave, the sooner we'll get home."

After saying that, she got into the car first.

Because of Jiang Wenxun and Daoist Kongqing, Xiao Wei had secretly released three cars long ago.

Xiao Wei was just worried that there weren't enough cars, and wondered if he should ask Zhang An to let a truck out when no one was looking.

After they got in the car, they drove towards the city gate.

When they arrived at the city gate, they indeed saw Lin De'an and his group, who had been waiting for a long time.

After exchanging pleasantries for a while, Lin De'an couldn't help but reach out and gently stroke Jiang Jiyun's short hair, saying with emotion, "After this separation, I really don't know when we'll be able to meet again. Little girl, you must take good care of yourself."

Jiang Jiyun nodded silently, then took a cloth bag out of her bag and stuffed it into Lin De'an's palm.

She lowered her voice and urged, "Uncle Da Guan, please take good care of yourself! I look forward to fighting side by side with you again in the future, and I hope that we will truly become inseparable comrades-in-arms then!"

"Yes, we will always be comrades-in-arms, inseparable." Yuan Guoliang hugged Jiang Jiyun tightly.

Jiang Jiyuan walked over and gave them a small note, saying, "If you really encounter any difficulties, you can contact me."

Lin De'an took the note and nodded. "If you ever need our help in the future, just let us know. We'll definitely do our best for you."

Qin Gang and his group saw them off all the way to the city gate, and only after watching the car drive further and further east did they say goodbye to Lin De'an and the others and leave.

Jiang Wenxun silently watched the city gate recede into the distance, slowly closed his eyes, and felt an indescribable sense of melancholy and resolve welling up in his heart.

He entrusted his mother-in-law to a reliable person Wu Tao had mentioned, and gave her enough money to ensure she would have no worries about her life.

Jiang Wenxun knew that a battlefield filled with smoke and fire awaited him ahead, but he was not afraid of death.

If he is lucky enough to survive and witness the final victory of this war of resistance, he will definitely come to take his mother-in-law back to her hometown. He will take care of her personally and let her enjoy her old age in peace.

This group of people traveled day and night, passing through several towns and villages in Anhui Province along the way.

Wherever they went, people who had suffered from war were gradually emerging from the shadow of trauma, regaining their spirits, and devoting themselves wholeheartedly to the reconstruction of their homes.

After several days of arduous travel, they finally arrived at the western outskirts of Jinling City.

However, what's unexpected is that you have to pay a fee to enter the city!

This sudden turn of events made Jiang Jiyun fall into deep thought: how long had it been since she had encountered this situation?

Xiao Wei stopped the car and was about to open the door to get out and take a look when he suddenly caught sight of a person with a hat tilted to one side walking towards him.

The man walked straight to the car, his gaze falling on it, and said, "You're coming into the city from that direction, so you don't need to pay any fees."

After saying that, he pointed in a direction to show Xiao Wei.

Xiao Wei looked in the direction he pointed and saw a car driving out of the city gate.

Sitting in the passenger seat, Jiang Wenming waved enthusiastically at the person, then took out a wad of banknotes and handed them to the other person through the car window.

"Thank you so much, sir, please take care!" Yu Sunian said with a smile.

He reached out and took the wad of banknotes, taking a small step back as he did so.

Then, the three cars sped past him, but just as the last car was about to disappear, Yu Sunian seemed to vaguely see a rather familiar figure.

"Could it really be him? Could he still be alive..." Yu Su Nian clenched the banknotes in his hand tightly, muttering to himself in a voice so soft that only he could hear it.

"Old Yu, you've collected quite a few tips today!" A slightly teasing voice reached Yu Sunian's ears.

Yu Sunian was slightly taken aback, but quickly recovered.

He told himself that he must get rid of the influence of the memories as soon as possible and get back into work mode.

He now faces an important mission, and if he is not careful and his true feelings are discovered, it could have irreparable consequences for the entire plan.

After taking a deep breath, Yu Sunian strode towards the group of colleagues who were talking excitedly, and said with feigned surprise, "Wow, this is the first time I've ever received such a generous tip. I'm quite flattered!"

One of the people in the crowd casually took the stack of banknotes and began to count them, muttering, "It's a pity that the legal tender has depreciated so much these days. If it were a few years ago, this money would have been enough to buy a lot of grain."

Yu Sunian couldn't help but sigh deeply, and replied with a heavy heart, "That's true, but the amount is still considerable. Think about it, when have those rich and powerful people ever given us a second glance? Nowadays, there are all sorts of people in Jinling City, and we just need to live our lives peacefully."

Qu Jiang sighed deeply, a hint of sadness and emotion in his eyes. "Yes, when we first arrived here, this place was as terrifying as hell. It took us a long time to gradually restore some of its vitality."

Seeing Yu Sunian's face turn as pale as paper, Ye Yuncheng's heart tightened, and he quickly interrupted, "Alright, alright, what's past is past. What are you doing now? This will only make Lao Yu feel worse!"

Upon hearing this, everyone fell silent. Most of them were residents who had moved here later and had heard about what had happened in Jinling City, but none of them had witnessed the tragic scene firsthand.

Yu Sunian huddled silently in the corner, staring blankly at the boundless sky above him, trying to see the distant world through the clouds.

Although several years have passed, his body still cannot withstand any strenuous exercise.

However, compared to the physical wounds, the endless pain deep in his heart was even more unbearable, like being stabbed by thousands of needles at the same time, and he had nightmares every night.

After that incredibly brutal battle, Yu Sunian crawled out of the mass grave, littered with corpses, all by himself.

When his rescuers found him crawling on the ground, he was covered in wounds and looked terrible.

To this day, despite numerous treatments and recuperations, his wounds have not fully healed.

The doctor who saved him said that his vital organs had been severely damaged and he would never be able to do heavy physical labor again.

These days, Yu Sunian is just living one day at a time, but even so, he hasn't given up on himself.

Instead, he gritted his teeth, stubbornly survived, and secretly vowed to witness every future victory in place of his brothers who had fought alongside him!

Over the past few years, Yu Sunian has been searching everywhere and has also found several comrades who have also escaped death.

So he gathered these people together and formed a small group where they took care of each other.

This is why the tips given by wealthy people are usually taken by Yu Sunian.

Because everyone knows perfectly well that this meager income is actually equivalent to helping those heroes.
