Chapter 6: The Endless Cloud Sea

  "Major! Are you kidding me? I don't think it's funny at all!" The Colonel looked at the Lieutenant Colonel, with a bitter smile and said: "You're an excellent officer, can't you consider things when doing something? Do you know how much impact this thing will have?" The Colonel looked at his best officer, almost crying with laughter.

  "I'm not joking! I think Lu Yu Feng indeed has the qualifications to be buried in the Martyrs' Cemetery! We must give him an explanation, as for that matter, I have already made preparations to go to the military court!" The company commander's eyes were firmly fixed on the colonel.

  "If Yu Feng hadn't changed careers, with his achievements, he would have definitely been buried in the Martyrs' Cemetery, but... alas!" Colonel was also very sorry for Lu Yu Feng.

  "Colonel! My good officer! Is there really no way out?" The company commander's emotions were somewhat down, but he still persisted.

  "Hmm..." The colonel didn't say a word, just let out a soft sigh, and then continued with what he was doing.

  "Colonel!" The company commander's tone suddenly became stern, his voice also sounding extremely loud. He then pulled out the pistol from his waist and placed it directly on the table, staring straight at the colonel.

  "Colonel! What are you going to do?" The major general looked at the colonel with some confusion, his eyes also gradually becoming stern.

  "Colonel! I'll assemble the troops one last time, and then I'll find a scenic spot to bury this unknown hero. After that, I'll go to the military tribunal myself!" The lieutenant colonel said, and turned around to walk out of the room.

  "Commander! How is it? Has the captain agreed?" The major had just walked into the drill ground, and the members of the Blood Kill Unit immediately surrounded him, asking anxiously. Lu Yu Feng and Xiao Yu were still being carried on their shoulders.

  "Blood Kill Squad! Assemble!" The lieutenant did not respond to these words, but let out a loud roar. Then the members of Blood Kill Squad were seen immediately forming two rows, holding up the corpses of Lu Yu and Feng Er, and getting into formation.

  "Put down the feather fan!" Although the Blood Kill Unit didn't know what Lian Zhang was going to do, they still carried out his orders. In that moment when he pointed his gun at Lu Jia's wife, he had already won the entire squad's utmost respect.

  "Tell me! What did you enlist for?" The company commander shouted loudly, his eyes piercing but filled with tears.

  "Protect our homes and defend our country! Protect our homes and defend our country! Protect our homes and defend our country!" The continuous three loud shouts, the voices of ten people seemed to pierce through the entire sky.

  "Now, your class leader is standing right here. Do you still remember what he told you during training?" The company commander's voice was not small either, even though he was alone.

  "The enemy is still at large! The horse will be wrapped in a corpse again! The horse will be wrapped in a corpse again!" The people of the Blood Kill Unit would never forget, their squad leader's words that he always said while leading them in training, and they all shouted out loud together.

  "Attention!" The company commander first gave a standard military salute to Lu Yifeng, who was still standing upright. He represented the entire army and apologized to these iron-blooded men!

  "Return the corpse wrapped in horse hide! Return the corpse wrapped in horse hide..." These iron-like men, murmuring and repeating this one sentence, with tears streaming down their faces that they could no longer hold back.

  "Soldiers! I want to say sorry to you all, because... I failed!" The company commander's tone suddenly became somewhat dejected, and the sharp aura on his body also vanished in an instant, because he felt guilty towards these soldiers, he didn't fulfill the promise he made!

  "Company Commander!" These soldiers looked at the company commander and suddenly choked with sobs, they didn't know what to say because they already knew the company commander had done his best!

  "Li Xin!" Lian Chang suddenly gave an order to the current captain of the Blood Kill team.

  "Report!" Li Xin immediately stepped out of the ranks, tightened his grip on the rifle in his hand, and waited for the company commander's orders.

  "Bring your sister-in-law! Let's go!" The company commander waved his hand and directly carried Luyu Feng's body on his back, then slowly walked towards the gate of the military camp. Behind him followed Li Xin, who had Xiaoyu on his back. Further behind was a row of guns at the ready, marching in lockstep - the Blood Kill Squad.

  "Am I just a cold-blooded animal to you, soldiers?! I'm also a soldier who came from the battlefield!" The colonel stood by the window and watched after the lieutenant left. He wanted to see what these people were going to do. This colonel was also an old soldier who had come from the battlefield, and he deeply understood this strong camaraderie among comrades-in-arms. Suddenly, he thought of his former squad leader who had died with his finger still on the trigger, and his eyes dimmed.

  Suddenly, the principal turned around and rushed out of the room, charging towards a line of people.

  "Captain!" The colonel stood on the training ground, facing a line of people slowly leaving, and let out a loud shout.

  "Arrived!" The lieutenant's figure, carrying Lu Yu Feng, suddenly stopped in its tracks.

  "Attention! Stand at ease! About face! Forward march! Martyrs' Mausoleum!" The colonel's voice was a little hoarse, because he didn't want the word "martyr" to be missing from Lu Yufeng's tombstone.

  "Colonel... but you didn't apply for promotion!" The lieutenant colonel looked at the colonel in puzzlement, knowing that he had indeed applied for promotion at the beginning, but it wasn't approved. What was going on now?

  "What's it to you?" Colonel said, and then led the members of the Blood Kill Unit to rush towards the Martyrs' Cemetery.

  ...

  "Colonel... this... this... is your and your wife's burial ground..." The lieutenant colonel asked in surprise, he didn't expect the colonel to bring them here. As the colonel was a veteran from the battlefield, when building the martyrs' cemetery, he reserved a plot of land for himself and his wife.

  "No one can predict what will happen in the future, so let's bury Yufeng and his wife here now!" The colonel also said with some emotion: "Get to work! Don't let the hero's body be exposed to the cool breeze here!" As he spoke, the colonel took the lead in digging a grave.

  "Thank you, Commander!" Everyone present saluted this somewhat aged person with a military salute, then started digging.

  They didn't notice that while they were digging the pit, Lu Yufeng's body had undergone some subtle changes, as if he had suddenly become much thinner.

  An invisible force spread out from Lu Yufeng's body, stirring up a faint breeze around him. However, strangely, none of the soldiers noticed anything unusual. Gradually, on Lu Yufeng's body, a faint shadow appeared. This shadow resembled a dragon-shaped jade pendant with an ancient-style "Lu" character inscribed on it. Upon closer inspection, one could discover that inside this jade pendant was a human figure lying within. The figure was somewhat indistinct but still discernible, and it was precisely Lu Yufeng's silhouette.

  Suddenly, a crack appeared in the air above the jade pendant, and then the shadow of the jade pendant seemed to be pulled by something and was sucked into the crack.

  ...

  In a distant place, I don't know where it is, above a faint cloud sea, there is a green bamboo forest. Occasionally, a gust of clear wind blows by, and white clouds will rise, swirling around the green bamboo.

  In this bamboo forest, there is a delicate small pavilion, on which four large characters "Bamboo Forest Elegant Sequence" are written in a very light and elegant manner, from which it can be seen that the owner here has a different state of mind.

  "Husband, what are you doing? Is there something good to see?" A pleasant voice rang out, a woman wearing a green gauze dress with long hair down to her waist, probably in her early twenties, suddenly covered the eyes of a man from behind and said with some playfulness.

  "Hmm..." The man gently removed the woman's hands from his face, then slowly turned around to look at her, with an unspoken affection in his eyes: "What's wrong? Where are you going crazy again?" The man slowly stood up, revealing his entire body. He was wearing a simple and elegant long robe, which gave people a feeling of gentle breeze and light cloud. The man's appearance was not particularly handsome, only clean and neat. If he were in a crowd, he would be just an ordinary person who wouldn't stand out. It was hard to understand why such a beautiful woman would marry a man with such an average appearance.

  "What's wrong with you? I'm just experiencing life!" The woman pouted, seemingly dissatisfied with the man's words, and argued back.

  "Alright! You've gone off to experience life!" The man stretched out his hand, and gently pinched the woman's nose, saying lovingly.

  "By the way, husband, what were you just doing? I saw your smile and it seemed a bit... " The woman didn't know how to describe it, but she felt that her husband's smile was strange.

  "It's nothing! Just a playful kid!" The man waved his hand, and the green bamboo leaf instantly became plain and unadorned. The image that had just appeared on it also disappeared in an instant.

  "Recently I've been going out less!" The man suddenly said with some caution.

  "What's wrong?" The woman said with some discontent.

  "Open the sea of clouds, the dragon is out! From now on, the world will not be peaceful!" The man let out a long sigh and then stared blankly at the endless sea of clouds, lost in thought.
