Feng Kezhi found a flashlight in the ruins of the post office for night lighting, and when he left with Meng Lanting, there was a sound behind him.
"Please help me, I still have a wife and children at home."
Meng Lanting turned his head.
The dying telegraph operator struggled and reached out to himself for help.
She couldn't help feeling pity.
But under such circumstances, what can be done?
Feng Kezhi looked back, walked back, picked up the other person, took him out, and placed him behind a stone slab next to the ruins.
"When you see someone passing by, call for help.
It depends on your luck."
After he finished speaking, he left the post office with Meng Lanting and headed towards Kowloon East.
Kai Tak Airport has been completely scrapped and the bombers have left.
Now they are concentrated in Kowloon West.
In addition, Kowloon East leading to Kai Chau is not a prosperous area and is relatively safer.
When Meng Lanting was on the road, he saw many people fleeing in the same direction.
Everyone looked worried and walked in a hurry.
In the evening, the two arrived at the Tseung Kwan O area in Sai Kung.
This place used to be sparsely populated, with only small fishing villages dotted along both sides of the road.
But now, people who were trying to escape could be seen everywhere on the road, and there were also some British soldiers who had been defeated and fled here from nowhere, and they were all in a very embarrassed state.
Feng Kezhi stopped, found a clean stone, asked Meng Lanting to sit on it, handed her some food he had picked up on the road, and helped her unscrew the lid of the kettle, letting her rest and replenish her strength while he stood aside , looking in the direction of the destination still ahead.
Meng Lanting took a sip of water, then put down the kettle and gently tugged on his sleeve.
Feng Kezhi turned around.
"You're hungry too, so you can eat too."
She broke the bun open and gave him half.
"I'm not hungry."
"You're hungry."
She looked at him with a smile.
Feng Kezhi finally took the food she handed to him and took a bite.
Meng Lanting handed him the kettle again.
Feng Kezhi drank some water, pointed forward and said: "The location is at the foot of the mountain in front.
There is an abandoned lighthouse on the seaside.
They will wait for us under the lighthouse.
We will take a sampan to the sea first, and then transfer to a warship to leave."
"It will take about two or three hours to walk from here.
It's still early before the appointed time, so don't be in a hurry.
You have a good rest."
Meng Lanting glanced in the direction he pointed and nodded.
He glanced at her, squatted down, helped her roll up the legs of her long cotton trousers that had fallen to the ground, and comforted her: "Don't be afraid.
You'll be safe once you get on the ship, and we'll reach Chongqing soon."
"I'm not afraid."
Meng Lanting shook his head.
She really didn't feel scared at all.
From the moment she saw him appear in front of her and lift her out of the water, all her worries and fears disappeared.
Feng Kezhi glanced at her and laughed.
This seemed to be the first time he smiled after the two reunited, with his brows stretched and his eyes gentle.
Meng Lanting's eyes fell on this handsome face and froze for a moment.

"What's wrong" Feng Kezhi stopped laughing, raised his hand, and touched his face.
"nothing" Meng Lanting's face secretly heated up, he shook his head hastily, turned his face, and reached for the kettle.
Suddenly, at this moment, a buzzing sound came from the northwest.
This voice was not unfamiliar at all to Meng Lanting, who had been listening to it all day.
She turned her head.
In the distant sky, several black shadows like giant flies were coming in this direction.
"The British have attracted the plane and leave quickly."
Feng Kezhi quickly stood up from the ground.
Two planes came, and soon they were overhead.
They flew very low, and with the sound of machine gun fire, it was like a rain of bullets had fallen on the ground, and dust was rising.
There was flat land nearby, with almost no shelter except for some trees and what looked like an abandoned ash kiln with a large chimney a hundred meters away.
People screamed helplessly and desperately, running away in all directions, trying to escape the fire from above, but how could they escape?
The plane hovered at low altitude and continued to shoot downwards.
Many people fell into a pool of blood.
Feng Kezhi pulled up Meng Lanting and ran towards the gray kiln.
When he was approaching, there were screams behind him.
The sound of bullets falling to the ground is also like a dense rain chasing after them.
He dragged Meng Lanting, took a big step, bent down and rushed into the kiln entrance, and the two of them fell into the kiln pit together.
The pit was as deep as one person.
On the innermost side, some discarded fire bricks were stacked against the wall.
The light inside was dim.
Meng Lanting was hugged tightly by him.
When she fell into the pit, his arm protected her head.
Due to the inertia, the two of them rolled several times before stopping in the middle of the pit.
A string of bullets fell from the sky, quickly shooting down the few British soldiers who were following them who had no time to enter the kiln, and then swept across the top of the kiln.
The plane finally flew overhead.
Meng Lanting was still pressed down by Feng Kezhi, tightly protected in his arms.
The two of them lay at the bottom of the pit, motionless, until the sound of the plane faded away and he slowly let go of her.
"Are you okay?"
He helped her sit up.
Meng Lanting finally took a breath.
Although he was shocked, he was even more grateful and shook his head.
"I'm fine" Before she finished speaking, the buzzing sound above her head came over again.
This time, it wasn't machine gun fire.
Accompanied by several violent explosions from far to near, the ground beneath him seemed to tremble slightly, and above his head, a lot of dust fell.
"boom".
Accompanied by this deafening explosion, Meng Lanting was horrified to see the entrance of the kiln suddenly collapse in.
Stones of various sizes built into the thick kiln walls, mixed with a large amount of mud, seemed to be flooding towards the kiln pit like a tide.
Feng Kezhi threw her to the ground again, hugged her, and rolled towards the pile of fire bricks.
When the tremors beneath her body and the collapse of her head stopped, she slowly opened her eyes.
There was darkness in front of him, and there was no light at all.
The gray kiln was blown down.
She and Feng Kezhi were buried in a deep ash kiln pit.
Fortunately, Feng Kezhi reacted quickly.
The falling wall pressed against the pile of fire bricks against the wall, creating the only space left.

This prevented the two of them from being completely buried to death.
"Ke Zhi" Meng Lanting knew that he was not injured, but felt that Feng Kezhi was pressing on him, but he was motionless.
He didn't know what happened to him, so he hurriedly called him.
Feng Kezhi slowly raised his head, and when the dizziness passed, he subconsciously touched her body.
"I'm here.
Are you hurt?"
"I'm fine.
How about you."
"I'm fine too.
Don't worry."
The explosions outside continue.
In the collapsed ash kiln, rubble and dust continued to fall above their heads.
In the darkness, the two held each other, motionless.
After about ten minutes, the plane finally moved away, and everything fell silent.
Feng Kezhi slowly let go of Meng Lanting, sat up, took out the flashlight buckled on his belt, and turned it on.
In front of the dark eyes, there was finally light again.
He told her not to move, sat up, and illuminated the space with his flashlight.
The ash kiln must have collapsed.
The remaining place is less than one person tall and is covered with large and small stones and mud.
Visually, it is a completely enclosed space.
If it is not vented as soon as possible, the oxygen may not last long.
Meng Lanting soon thought of this problem, suppressed the anxiety in his heart, and looked at him.
Feng Kezhi took out the dagger hidden on his calf and plunged it into the nearby ruins.
He turned around and said, "I will make a passage as soon as possible and we will get out."
He asked Meng Lanting to lie down and try to be as calm as possible to reduce oxygen consumption, and then he began to dig the soil and dig the hole.
He chose the diagonal way of discharging soil.
It can not only shorten the distance and open the tunnel as soon as possible, but also reduce the possibility of secondary collapse caused by direct excavation.
The dagger kept digging, advancing inch by inch.
The soil dug out and the stones removed were piled at his feet.
About half an hour later, Meng Lanting began to feel his breathing getting heavier.
She knew that Feng Kezhi's breathing must be more difficult than hers now.
She could already hear the gasps coming from him.
One after another, it was extremely heavy, and the sound was clear and could be heard.
She followed his instructions, still lying sideways, curled up against the wall, holding a flashlight in her hand to illuminate for him, staring at the back of the busy man in front of her, telling herself again and again in her heart that she must listen.
If he speaks, try to be calm and leave more useful oxygen for him, so as to help him open the hole as soon as possible.
Sweat was rolling down Feng Kezhi's forehead.
His chest also felt an unprecedented pressure and pain.
The muscles in his arms have the most outstanding explosive power, and a single soldier can directly twist the enemy's head off.
But now, as the air inhaled into the lungs gradually becomes thinner, even the simplest movement begins to become difficult.
He knew that she must be the same as him now, but she didn't say it.
The hole is no longer shallow.
According to his estimation, this place should not be far from the top of the ruins.
He cheered up and continued to clear the soil and remove the rocks weighing on it.
With a "ding" sound, the dagger suddenly struck a hard boulder more than a foot wide blocking the front, and broke into two pieces.
Feng Kezhi threw away the broken knife in his hand and tried to push it, but felt that the stone was a little loose.

He exerted force.
With a dull sound, the stone on top was pushed away and rolled down.
A hole was revealed above his head.
A dim light, accompanied by the cold fresh air outside, rushed in.
Finally got through Feng Kezhi closed his eyes, took a deep breath of air, turned his head, looked at Meng Lanting, and grinned at her.
Meng Lanting screamed, threw away the flashlight, got up from the ground, and threw himself into his arms.
"We won't die and we can get out."
She cried and laughed.
Feng Kezhi hugged her hard, put his lips to her ear, and whispered: "Don't move.
It's not strong here.
Just wait a moment, I'll open the hole wider and send you out first."
Meng Lanting was reminded and stood there without daring to move.
He bent down to pick up the broken dagger, and carefully moved away the remaining stones surrounding the exit.
When it was big enough to allow people to get out, he squatted down, let Meng Lanting step on his shoulders, stood up, and sent her away. go out.
It was already dark, the surroundings were dim, and apart from the dead people, there was no trace of any living person on the ground.
Meng Lanting crawled out, lay down at the edge of the cave, stretched out his hand to pull him: "Come up quickly."
At this moment, she suddenly felt that the pile of rocks beneath her body seemed to have sunk slightly.
Stunned for a moment.
Before she could react, she felt the hand let go of hers, and with another violent push, she was pushed backwards by a strong force and rolled down.
There was a "pop", and almost at the same moment, something was thrown out of the hole and fell beside her.
"Lanting, don't worry about me.
I must go and join them first."
Accompanied by a dull, terrifying sound like rocks rubbing and crushing against each other, Feng Kezhi's voice stopped abruptly.
Meng Lanting came back to his senses, shouted "Kezhi", quickly climbed up from the ground, and ran back desperately.
He saw that the passageway he had just climbed out of had completely disappeared, leaving only a pile of people moving from the side.
The stones that came over were buried on top.
"Ke Zhi" "Feng Kezhi" "Did you hear that?
Answer me."
Meng Lanting knelt aside, picking up stones and shouting loudly.
It was quiet below, without any echo.
She kept calling his name.
But no matter how I called, there was always no sound from under the stone.
His teeth began to chatter and tears burst out.
Meng Lanting couldn't believe what was happening in front of him.
But everything is true.
Feng Kezhi sent her out, but he was buried underneath the ruins of the gray kiln that collapsed again.
She moved rocks and dug in the dirt with her hands.
His fingers were quickly worn out, but he had no feeling at all.
He continued digging and moving until he realized that no matter how hard he tried, even if he found a branch as a lever, he could not move the pile in front of him with his own strength.
When the stones were thrown together, she almost collapsed.
She knelt on the ground and cried bitterly for a moment.
Suddenly she remembered what he had thrown out just now.
She hurriedly wiped away her tears, got up and found it.
A hand. gun.
She understood instantly.

He must have realized earlier than himself that the ruins were about to collapse again.
He had no time to get out, so he seized the last chance, threw the gun out to protect himself, and allowed himself to join his people first.
Tears welled up again.
How could she just leave him and go there to meet people first?
Even if she got there at 11 o'clock, found the lighthouse, successfully joined his people, and then brought them here to save people, at least one person would have to come and go.
Five or six hours.
Even if it's okay now, by then, I'm afraid I'll be suffocated down there.
Tears were still rolling down uncontrollably.
Meng Lanting ordered himself to calm down, picked up the gun, turned around and ran back to the road.
The unfortunate people who died in the attack during the day were lying on the road.
The night wind blew by, and a whining sound seemed to be heard in the ears, which was extremely scary.
Meng Lanting didn't feel anything at all, he just kept looking.
So many people came during the day who could not escape.
She believed there must be someone around.
She needs living people, living people who can help her.
If she really couldn't meet him, she turned back and went to look for someone in a fishing village a few kilometers away from here that she passed during the day.
She ran out for about a mile and saw a light on the roadside ahead.
Two strong men, one took off the watch worn by the deceased on the roadside, and the other was stripping the dead man's clothes.
Meng Lanting never knew that his courage could be so great.
In other words, at this moment, nothing in this world could overwhelm her determination to free Feng Kezhi from that kiln pit.
Whether he was dead or alive, she would never leave him alone.
The two people were shocked when they found her at first.
When they saw that she was a beautiful young woman, they smiled maliciously, stopped what they were doing, picked up the iron rod they carried with them, and said Saying dirty words, he walked towards Meng Lanting with a smile.
Meng Lanting held the gun in his hand tightly, pulled the bolt, and with a "bang" sound, fired a shot at a stone at the feet of the two men without hesitation.
The bullet hit the stone, splashing out sparks, and the sharp sound of the gun startled several nearby night birds.
The strong man was stunned, immediately stopped, looked at each other, and slowly backed away.
When he turned to run, Meng Lanting fired another shot at the ground at the feet of the two of them.
After a while, the two men were forced by the muzzle of the gun behind them, and soon arrived in front of the ruins of the gray kiln, digging and prying at the same time.
When he lifted the last big stone on top, Meng Lanting saw a beam of flashlight light leaking out from below.
Feng Kezhi is still alive.
But during the second collapse, his head was hit by a falling stone and he fainted.
Others have just woken up.
At this moment, he closed his eyes and sat quietly next to the pile of fire bricks.
On the ground at hand was the flashlight.
When he heard Meng Lanting calling his name anxiously from above, he opened his eyes and wanted to respond to her.
He was so weak that he couldn't make a sound, so he turned on the flashlight and shook his head upward.
Then he supported the wall and slowly stood up.
The two strong men had already sneaked away.
In the night sky, there are stars.
Feng Kezhi stood on the edge of the ruins he had just emerged from, staring at the girl opposite who was crying, and stretched out his hand to her.
"Ke Zhi" Meng Lanting choked and called his name and threw herself into his arms.
Feng Kezhi was unsteady and was thrown to the ground by her.
She ignored him, like a frightened little girl, lying on his chest, clutching his clothes tightly, and kept crying.
Feng Kezhi lay on his back, hugged her tightly, and kept comforting her in her ears.
It wasn't until she gradually stopped crying and turned into sobs that she whispered: "Lanting, why didn't you listen to me?
Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net
I told you to go and join them first.
Chongqing is still waiting for you to come over."
He paused.
"Do you know how dangerous it was just now?
What if something happens to you?"
Meng Lanting raised his tear-stained face, looked at the man beneath him, and said softly: "Feng Kezhi, I'm gone.
They can ask the United States to send someone else.
But if something happens to you, , I will never have you again.”
Feng Kezhi was silent, and slowly wiped away the tears on her face with his palms.
He suddenly turned over, pressed her under him, lowered his head, and kissed her mouth.
Meng Lanting closed her eyes, crying while enduring his fierce kiss.
When she was so kissed that she forgot to cry and was about to run out of breath, he finally let go of her, panting, burying his face on the side of her face and neck, and said in a low voice: "Lanting, yours My hair is so long again, but I still owe you an apology for all the bad things I did in the past.”
He looked up.
"Do you know why I didn't say sorry to you in the letter?"
Meng Lanting sobbed and shook his head: "Why?"
"Because you haven't come back yet."
He stared at her.
"I heard from my sisters that when I was just born, the fortune teller said that I don't ask for blessings, blessings will come to me.
This is naturally nonsense.
But to be honest, in the past few years, I have hoped that this is true.
I think I think it seems to be true.
Otherwise, why would my father have set you up for me since I was a child?
I am such a bastard, and you still come to me when you are older.
This is not a blessing."
"But in the past few years, I have seen too many deaths.
So many people who were alive yesterday are gone in the blink of an eye.
I am not afraid of death, but I really don't want to die.
I always feel that I owe you an apology, as long as If I don't tell you, God will definitely let me continue to live.
When you come back, let me tell you personally. " He paused.
"I'm afraid if I tell you too early, I won't be able to wait for the day you come back."
"Lanting, now that you are back, I can finally say it.
Me" Meng Lanting had already burst into tears again.
"If you don't want me, I won't listen."
She suddenly stretched out her hand, covered his mouth tightly, then let go, hugged his neck tightly, pressed his head towards her, and blocked his mouth with her lips.
"Feng Kezhi, listen, I don't want to hear you say sorry to me."
"Never listen" After a long time, she let go of him and spoke word by word in his ear.
"Lanting" Feng Kezhi was so excited that his voice trembled slightly.
He lowered his head to kiss her again, but she stretched out her hand to push him away and pushed him away from her.
Meng Lanting got up.
"If you don't leave after leaving, time will be lost."
She left him, turned around, and walked quickly towards the road.
Feng Kezhi was unprepared and was pushed to the ground by her.
His broken head was hit again.
It hurt like hell.
He stretched out his hand to cover it.
Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net
He quickly got up from the ground and chased after her.
At eleven o'clock in the evening, the two came to the lighthouse.
A sampan appeared on the dark sea in the distance, broke through the water towards this side, and stopped outside the rocks more than ten meters away from the shore.
Meng Lanting bent down and was about to roll up his trousers and get into the water, when his body lightened up and he was picked up by Feng Kezhi.
He carried Meng Lanting down to the shore, waded to the boat, put her in, and got on the boat himself.
"Gone."
He said.
The sampan broke through the water again and disappeared on the vast sea under the night, leaving behind the city that was about to overturn. gd1806102:
