I'm full of rebellion against fate

Chapter 222: The Red Dust

In a blink of an eye, Gu Xingtao is already in his twenties. In the past ten years, Gu Xingtao went to military school to study and then followed Dongfang He to fight after returning.

Gu Wuyue learned business from Chang Ningchen. His business was booming and no one from foreign countries could shake his business position.

Gu Furong and Gu Ziyi stayed abroad after graduating. They helped run overseas companies. In addition, their Gu family also ran an arms business.

If there was a war between warlords, the current Gu family would not be affected, but this year the chicken with a foot basin has come.

Dongfang He's sphere of influence is now very large and therefore he is very busy. He has to protect Gu Cheng and Chang Ningchen so that they will not be affected by the war, but plans cannot keep up with changes. A traitor appeared in Gu Cheng, and they collaborated with the enemy to cause Gu Cheng to fall.

It rained heavily that night, as if crying for the upcoming massacre. Chang Ningchen ran desperately in the rainy night. He wanted to run to a safe place as soon as possible. If he was caught by the enemy, Dongfang He would be in danger. If the man was in danger, the whole area would be in danger!

Gu Cheng's traitors were the Qian family. These guys were still holding a grudge against what happened in the past and colluded with foreign tribes to cause Gu Cheng's downfall.

In the world where Chang Ningchen was still Qiao Ningchen, he had witnessed the cruelty of the foot basin chickens. Those guys were simply not human! Moreover, they did not treat the common people who grew flowers as human beings. Colluding with them was like seeking the skin of a tiger!

In order to protect Chang Ningchen, Gu Wuyue put on his coat and acted as him to lure the enemy away. Chang Ningchen could only endure the sadness and run desperately. Even if he couldn't run away, he couldn't fall into their hands!

Dongfang He left a gun for him. Chang Ningchen touched the gun in his arms and wondered whether he should switch worlds now or after being caught. But if he died now, there would be no one to save Gu Wuyue!

So he gritted his teeth, put away his gun and continued to run, but the enemy chasing him from behind was holding a gun and carrying a vicious dog. The next second, he felt a sharp pain in his foot. In a panic, Chang Ningchen lost his balance and fell into the turbulent river.

When Chang Ningchen woke up again, he found the unshaven Dongfang He standing beside him. He immediately stood up but found that his legs were hurting.

"You were shot in the leg, but luckily you were saved by the nasty village people."

When Dongfang He heard that Gucheng had fallen, he immediately sent troops back, but when they arrived, the ground was littered with corpses and wounds. The other party said that they had captured Dong Er and asked Dongfang He to surrender to Jiaopenji before they would release him.

Just when Dongfang He wanted to go to the banquet alone, someone said that he regained consciousness after discovering Chang Ningchen. However, when he saw Chang Ningchen with a pale face and a gunshot wound on the leg, Dongfang He wanted to just replace the mushroom eggs and eat the chicken stewed with mushrooms in advance!

Chang Ningchen said anxiously: "Ah! Wu Yue pretended to be me to lure the enemy away, so I escaped! Go and save him!"

Dongfang He comforted Chang Ningchen and said, "The enemy didn't catch you and used him as a bargaining chip to lure me out. Wu Yue's life should be safe for the time being."

Chang Ningchen couldn't imagine Gu Wuyue's current situation. He hugged Dongfang He and trembled. In addition to the fear of surviving the disaster, he was also worried about Gu Wuyue and the people of Gucheng.

Dongfang He's current situation is not easy either. Inside, there is the bald man interfering with his army and the traitors betraying him, and outside, there is the foot basin chicken killing bloodthirsty people.

The current Xinghuo is still very weak and has not reached the level of a prairie fire. Moreover, in a few years, they will be unable to protect themselves and will have to start the Long March. Although Dongfang He has already defected to Xinghuo, he cannot reveal his identity yet, as doing so will only lead to the joint strangulation of Baldy and Foot Basin Chicken.

After careful consideration, Dongfang He pretended to show goodwill to Baldy and exchanged the wounded Gu Wuyue for the surrender of the Gu family army.

Chang Ningchen knew that Dongfang He would not cooperate with Jiaopenji, and this was his last resort to save Gu Wuyue. When he saw Gu Wuyue's bloody fingers, he felt very distressed. The terrible punishment of connecting ten fingers to the heart would only make Gu Wuyue's life worse than death!

When Gu Wuyue saw Chang Ningchen, he smiled proudly and said, "Mr. Qiao, I didn't tell them anything."

Upon hearing this, Chang Ningchen broke down in tears. Even if he had to risk his life to protect his family, it would be difficult for him to do what Gu Wuyue did. At this moment, family ties were more important than blood ties.

Dongfang He felt very uncomfortable when he saw Gu Wuyue's appearance. He didn't want to see Chang Ningchen become like this. After thinking for a long time, he said to Chang Ningchen: "Send Gu Wuyue to the United States!"

Chang Ningchen was still immersed in sadness at the moment, but he listened to Dongfang He's words. He thought that Dongfang He wanted him to take Gu Wuyue to Meiguo to treat his hand injury, so he nodded and agreed.

When Chang Ningchen came to his senses, Dongfang He had already pulled him to the dock. The wind was very strong and there were many people on the dock. Everyone knew that there was a war here. They wanted to leave here and go to a safe country, but it was not so easy to go. The ticket for this ship had long been sold at a sky-high price. Only those who could board this ship to the United States were rich or noble.

Chang Ningchen pushed Gu Wuyue onto the boat. He wanted to tell Dongfang He that he would come back after he sent Gu Wuyue to Gu Furong and the others, but the wind was very strong that day and the surroundings were very noisy, so Dongfang He didn't hear a word Chang Ningchen said.

Chang Ningchen stood by the railing of the boat and looked at Dongfang He in the crowd reluctantly. He didn't expect that they would be separated for more than sixty years.

After arriving in the United States, Gu Furong and Gu Ziyi received instructions from Dongfang He and persuaded Chang Ningchen to stay. Chang Ningchen, who did not want to be a burden to Dongfang He, did not waste time on the sadness of parting. He directly began to expand overseas companies and used the money he earned to support Dongfang He.

In this way, Chang Ningchen fought in the business world and Dongfang He fought on the battlefield. One fought a bald eagle and the other fought a chicken in a basin. Chang Ningchen exchanged all the money he earned for weapons and medicine to support Dongfang He, while Dongfang He took the supplies and weapons given by his wife and joined forces with Xinghuo to start a prairie fire.

Although the two of them are not together, their hearts are together, and they have gone through those difficult years together.

After beating the foot basin chicken, Dongfang He started beating the bald man. After the new flower planting was established, Chang Ningchen wanted to come back, and the man asked Gu Furong to tie him up and not let him come back.

The man meant to wait until the reform and opening up before coming back, but Chang Ningchen was worried that he could not wait that long, and he was also afraid that Dongfang He could not wait that long. After all, they were both almost sixty years old and did not have a few decades to wait.

Every decade in this world is a catastrophe. There are so many thrilling scenes that Chang Ningchen sometimes feels like he is dreaming, not to mention Dongfang He who has been fighting on the battlefield. He is facing a scene that is even more dangerous than him!

Dongfang He wrote in the letter to him: I will wait for you, and I will never die if I can't wait for you.

In this way, Chang Ningchen watched the turbulent twenty years of natural disasters and man-made disasters pass by. When the year of reform and opening up arrived, he couldn't wait to fly back to his flower-growing home.
