Chapter 33 Carve a tablet

“Oh.” Lin Qiye’s expression is very calm.
​Wen Qimo looked at him in surprise, “Oh? Not anymore?
​”What else?
​”There’s no rush of heart and blood at all?
​”A little, but only a little.” Lin Qiye answered faintly, “I think about the promotion… Not interested.
​Wen Qimo gave him a strange look, “Forget that you are a ‘heretic’ who will rebel from the Night’s Watch in ten years.”
​Lin Qiye did not confirm or deny, and continued to ask: “According to your words, these four special teams are already the ceiling of the summer war force?”
​”Of course not, they may be the ceiling of team strength in the Night’s Watch, but they are definitely not the ceiling of Bactrian strength.”
​”You mean, in Bactria, there was something like the Night’s Watch?
​”No, Bactria has only one watchman, but above the watchman there are five human ceilings.
​”The human ceiling?
​”As the name suggests, it is the highest war power that humans can achieve, and because their strength is close to the ancient gods of mythology, they are also called ‘demigods’.
​”In the body of a man, standing with a god?
​”I know you’re paraphrasing a movie classic, but that’s exactly what it is.” Wen Qimo looked up at the night sky, his eyes full of worship,
​”These five men are the pillars of humanity, the only hope that humanity can see in this fog.
​”Who are they?
​”I don’t know. They’re so far away that few people have seen them or know their names, but… There are some interesting rumors.
​”What rumors?
​”These five human ceilings are called one sword, one ride, one statue, one nothingness, and one master.
​”Sword, riding, honor, nothingness, Master… What kind of rumor is that? There’s no useful information, is there?
​”It is said that the Supreme Commander of our Night’s Watch is’ one ‘of these five human ceilings, but… It’s been a long, long time since anyone’s seen him pull a punch.
​”I have a question.
​”You ask.
​”Mankind up to now… Have you ever killed a God?” Lin Qiye pointed to the sky, “Not the kind of strange mythical creatures, but the real ancient gods that exist in myths!”
​Wen Qimo was silent for a moment and shook his head, “I don’t know, but I think there shouldn’t be…
​In the fog, human beings are like blindfolded lambs, we do not know what is happening in the world, we do not know when the end will come.
​In this age when the existence of gods is confirmed, if humans really kill one god, it will inevitably cause the panic of all the other gods, so that they are likely to join forces to destroy the human beings first, and the situation that humans will face will be even more severe!
​Lin Qiye nodded, “I understand.
​”Anything else to ask?
​Lin Qiye thought for a moment, “Do temporary players have welfare subsidies?
​”… I do.
​”Then there are no further questions.
​”So of all the questions you ask, only the last one is the one you care about the most?
​”Of course.” Lin Qiye nodded naturally, “What special team, human ceiling… Those things are so far away from me, I like to keep my feet on the ground.
​”All right…” Wen Qimo turned his head and asked, “Are you sleepy?
​”Not sleepy.
​”Then I’ll take you somewhere.
​”In the middle of the night… Is it serious?
​”… Serious.” Warm Qi ink mouth a smoke.
​”All right.” Lin Qiye told a sentence, “Don’t forget, I am still a minor.
​Wen Qimo:…
​…
​A few minutes later, the car slowly stopped in the silent wilderness.
​Lin seven nights open the door and get off, looked around for a circle, looking at Wen Qimo’s eyes full of vigilance.
​”Why did you bring me here?
​Wen Qimo silently rolled his eyes and pointed to a cemetery not far away, “There.
​Lin Qiye looked in the direction of his finger and fell silent.
​He could vaguely guess what Wen Qi Mo had brought him here for.
​The two men followed the narrow path and soon came to the perimeter of the cemetery.
​The cemetery was not large, significantly smaller than the one on the edge of town, but the workmanship of the gravestones and the spacing between them were far from the average cemetery.
​The gravestones here, they seem more elaborate, more orderly.
​”Here is…
​”The graveyard of the Night watchmen in Cangnan.” Wen Qinmo calmly opened, “Since 1936, the Bactria special biological response group was officially transformed into the ‘night watch’, and after taking the form of management of one city and one team, this place was divided into the final fate of the Cangnan Night Watch after the death of the battle.”
​Of course, this is only the default destination, when everyone officially joins the Night’s Watch team, they can explain whether they will enter the Night’s Watch cemetery after death, or cremation, or bury back to their hometown and so on…
​At that time, Zhao Kongcheng chose to be buried in the graveyard of the Night’s watch, he said that his body was stained with too much blood, and he was afraid to frighten the ancestors.
​As he said this, Wen Qimo’s mouth raised a smile, as if he had seen Zhao Kongcheng heartless when he said this.
​Lin Qiye silently looked at the tombstones around him, frowning slightly: “So many…
​In this cemetery, there are at least 60 or 70 different tombstones, and most of them are new.
​”It’s 85 years since 1936.” Wen Qimo said with emotion, “At the beginning, our sacrifice is really not much, after all, there will not be several mythical creatures in each city every year, and even if they appear, the realm is not high.”
​But as time goes by, the mythical creatures come faster and faster, and their strength is more and more terrible, and our casualties… More and more.
​Nearly half of these tombstones you’re looking at were killed in the last 20 years.
​Before Captain Chen Muye came to Cangnan City, it is said that two players died here every year, until the captain came, the death rate did not drop significantly.
​Lin seven nights mind emerged that silent black figure, couldn’t help but admire up.
​”But Zhao Kongcheng just died tonight, his tombstone has already been made?” Lin seven nights suddenly thought of what, confused asked.
​”No.
​”So let’s come here…
​Wen Qi Mo raised his hand and pointed to the distance, “Look at that.
​Lin Qiye looked down his hand and saw a faint light in the dark cemetery.
​Under the weak light, Hongying’s eyes were red sitting next to a vacant lot, holding a tablet without words in her hand, holding a carving pen in her right hand, carving little by little.
​Tears rolled down her cheeks on the tablet and were hastily wiped dry.
​At this moment, where is she still half the vitality before?
​”She… Didn’t she say gun practice?” Lin seven nights gawking at this scene.
​”She lied.” Wen Qimo shook his head, “The tombstone of the night’s watch, carved by the deceased’s teammates, this is an unwritten rule, originally, this monument should be carved by me.”
​Although she didn’t say it, I actually knew very well in my heart that she was actually the one who wanted to help Zhao Kongcheng carve a monument.
​They have a good relationship. A really good relationship.
​So even though she lied and told me all this bullshit, I turned a blind eye and let her do the carving.
​Lin seven nights and Wen Qimo stood there quietly, looking at the red fringes of the inscription, for a long time without words.
​In the misty moonlight,
​In the dead cemetery,
​Only the carving knife in the hand of the red tassel made a slight lament.
​”Won’t you come up and say hello?” For a while, Lin seven nights asked Wen Qi Mo.
​”To say hello now would embarrass her, she’s too thin-skinned.
​”But here we are… I feel like a pervert snooping on other people’s secrets.” Lin seven nights in the heart some awkward.
​Wen Qimo turned to look at him with a smile in his eyes.
​”Do you think… Are we the only perverts snooping around?
