Chapter 268 – Brothers Who Entrust Their Lives To Each Other

A miserable scream came from the edge of the Grand Ca.n.a.l dam, “Ah, ah, ah! Don’t let go, I won’t dare anymore, I won’t dare anymore!”

It didn’t take much time or effort for Yang Yi to catch the young man who had insulted his daughter’s manners. He then easily grabbed him by the wrist with one hand and dangled him over the Grand Ca.n.a.l.

Recently, there has been plenty of rain, and the water level of the Grand Ca.n.a.l has risen quite a bit. Through his leather boots, he could feel the river water flowing not far below his feet, as well as the bone-chilling cold!

As long as Yang Yi let go, he was sure to fall into the river with a splash. He was so scared that he almost wet himself, and his whole body went limp. He could only beg for mercy with snot and tears.

In fact, he was just a student who liked to talk big…

Yang Yi looked at his pitiful state with a cold face, but he was a little hesitant in his heart. Should he throw him down?

If it had been when he first arrived in this world, if anyone dared to bully his daughter, Yang Yi would have definitely thrown him into the river and not fished him out!

But over the past few months, he had become accustomed to the life of an ordinary person and his heart had been melted by Xixi, this little cotton jacket. Yang Yi’s personality had changed a lot, and his way of thinking about problems was no longer too extreme.

So he had to consider whether it would be a bit troublesome to throw this guy down and then have to fish him back up himself?

“Big Brother Yang, what are you doing?” Guo Ziyi’s voice came from a distance, allowing this guy to escape a disaster.

Yang Yi turned his head to look, his gaze slightly narrowed. His eyes pa.s.sed over Guo Ziyi and fell on the four people behind him. He immediately recognized Guo Da Bao, and then the remaining three. The familiar faces quickly allowed him to retrieve the corresponding memories deep in his mind.

How did they find me?

Of course, with Guo Da Bao there, the answer was obvious.

“You’re lucky this time, if you talk too much next time, I’ll really let you soak in the soup!” Yang Yi picked up the guy who was almost scared silly, threw him on the gra.s.s on the side, and said coldly, “Get lost!”

Yang Yi didn’t pay any more attention to him and went to meet Guo Ziyi and the others without looking back. The guy looked at Yang Yi’s back for a few seconds before coming back to his senses. As if he had been granted amnesty, he didn’t care about his weak legs, and fled in a panic with one foot deep and one foot shallow.

“Big Brother Yang, who was that person…” Guo Ziyi still wanted to speak, but seeing the expressions on the faces of the approaching soldiers, he wisely closed his mouth.

Guo Dabao was fine, but as for Luo Zongsheng, Shen Xinyu, and Yu Xiaotian, when they saw Yang Yi approaching them with a smile, their eyes suddenly turned red. Of course, with their sun-tanned skin, it was not noticeable that their eyes were red.

Not to the point of crying. They wouldn’t shed a tear even if they were hit by bullets! It was just that seeing their brother, with whom they had fought side by side over five years ago, suddenly appearing before them, memories surged like a tidal wave, and their hearts were overwhelmed with emotion for a moment!

Yang Yi looked at these three people and his emotion was a bit complicated. Although he didn’t have any particularly close relationship with them, the memories were indeed fused1, as if he had experienced them himself. When those emotions between comrades, who were once able to entrust their lives to each other, were stirred up, they still affected him.

“Gramps Luo, surnamed Shen, A’Xiao… Long time no see. I hope you’ve been well…” Yang Yi paused for a moment, still holding back the sadness, and propped up a smile.

“Surnamed Yang, you bstrd!” Shen Xinyu couldn’t hold back his personality and cursed loudly. He rushed forward and gave Yang Yi a bear hug.

Actually, Yang Yi inwardly resisted the hug between men.…

“I thought you were f*king dead!” Listening to the vulgar words in his ears and the strength of the pat on his back, Yang Yi sighed inwardly. He didn’t kick the guy away, but hesitated for a moment, and cooperated with light pat on his shoulder.

After letting go, Yang Yi smiled slightly and said to Shen Xinyu, “Your strength seems to have made no progress in these five years!”

“Bllsht! You say I haven’t made any progress? Why don’t we compare right now?” Shen Xinyu’s eyes widened in response to Yang Yi’s provocation and made a gesture to undo the b.u.t.tons of his coat.

“If you want to compare, do it when there is time to mess around!”

Luo Zongsheng pushed Shen Xinyu away, his expression was slightly complicated. He smiled bitterly and said, “Yang Yi, it’s been five years since I’ve seen you, and you still don’t seem to have changed much.”

Yang Yi read the memories of his predecessor and had his own judgments about some of the misunderstandings regarding his predecessor. He hesitated for a moment and took the initiative to give Luo Zongsheng a hug. “Gramps Luo, I haven’t changed much, but you looked much older!”

A hug could end all grudges, although it couldn’t be considered a deep grudge, the previous Yang Yi was angry because Luo Zongsheng didn’t save him, and Luo Zongsheng had felt guilty for five years because of this. Now with this hug, Luo Zongsheng felt Yang Yi’s understanding and forgiveness.

“Yes, I’m getting old and I can hardly fight anymore. In the past two years, I’ve been partic.i.p.ating less and less in frontline missions. I might soon retire from the Wolf War!” Luo Zongsheng laughed while blinking hard, the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes were a little moist.

Shen Xinyu still hadn’t figured it out2 and spoke up for Luo Zongsheng, “Yang Yi, whatever happened between you and Gramps Luo is in the past. You also know Gramps Luo’s difficulties. But you may not know that after that person fell from power the year before last, Gramps Luo has been helping you apply and finally restored your military status and files…”

There are still these matters? Yang Yi was somewhat surprised, but his inner turmoil was not significant. After all, his state of mind was different now. He smiled and said, “Alright, don’t mention the past things anymore, we are still brothers in the future!”

“Yes, brothers!” Luo Zongsheng patted Yang Yi’s shoulder.

And then there was also Yu Xiaotian!

Yu Xiaotian came along this time because he and Yang Yi used to be partners. Yu Xiaotian was a sniper, and Yang Yi was his wingman, cough, no, his observer. And because although Yu Xiaotian was skilled in sniping, his personal combat value was not high, and he often became too focused on killing, forgetting his own safety. Yang Yi’s existence was necessary to protect him and even cover his retreat.

It could be said that Yang Yi was Yu Xiaotian’s life guarantee!

In Yang Yi’s memories, the person he was most worried about after retiring was this guy. Fortunately, although the two hadn’t been partners for five years, Yu Xiaotian hadn’t been taken out by the enemy.

“A’Xiao, you’re still the same as before, rarely speaking or smiling!” Yang Yi smiled slightly at him.

Yu Xiaotian still had that cold face, but he took a step forward and hugged Yang Yi. This guy was not tall, his head was just at Yang Yi’s chest, but he hugged Yang Yi’s waist tightly.

Good brothers, everything was understood without words!

Originally, Yang Yi thought that there was no turbulence in his heart, because in his past life, he had no brothers, only himself.

However, when he hugged these three brothers he had fought alongside, his heart was still touched. It wasn’t the influence of the soul imprint of his predecessor. Yang Yi could clearly feel that he was truly happy and moved by this pure comradeship and brotherhood that was thicker than blood.

He realized that he didn’t want to be alone, and he also longed for such brothers who could entrust their lives to each other…

No, they were his brothers!

“This…” Guo Dabao stood there with his arms outstretched, waiting for Yang Yi for quite some time, but he didn’t come. He scratched his head awkwardly.

Yang Yi noticed and laughed heartily, then went over and hugged him.

But as for Guo Ziyi, he declined the hug between men…
