A three-year-old child dragged his sister's coffin and cried out for justice in the military re

The wind and snow roared wildly along the cliff edge of Changbai Mountain, like a mad beast.

Qin Xiao stood there, with a bottomless abyss beneath his feet.

The military knife in his hand had several chips, and dark red blood droplets that had not yet congealed clung to the blade.

The hydraulic hoses of the exoskeleton armor broke, hissing and spewing white smoke, as if trying to catch the breath of this exhausted man.

He could feel the excruciating pain coming from the broken bone in his left leg, as if countless red-hot steel needles were churning inside his bone marrow.

But he cannot fall down, not even sway.

Across from him, a dozen mercenaries dressed in snow camouflage were slowly closing in, their automatic rifles locked onto his joints.

The leader removed his goggles, revealing a face covered in bulging muscles, a cruel smirk playing on his lips.

"Brigade Commander Qin, we've been rivals for a long time, and I really admire you."

The man kicked the snow off his feet, the sound particularly jarring in the wind.

"Is it worth losing your life in Changbai Mountain for an adopted bastard child?"

"If you hand over that Phoenix Blood Grass, I guarantee you'll be left with a whole corpse, and I might even spare the lives of your brothers."

Hearing this, Qin Xiao suddenly wanted to laugh, laughing at these people's greed and their ignorance.

He glanced back at Eagle's Beak Rock in the distance.

There, Chu Kuang was carrying Sui Sui on his back, desperately running towards the rendezvous point under the cover of shadows.

Sui Sui's pink little schoolbag stood out in the snow, like a dancing flame.

That was his only attachment in this cold world.

As long as Sui Sui is safe, his life doesn't matter if he loses it or not.

Qin Xiao turned his head and looked at the mercenary opposite him. There was no fear in his eyes, only a kind of arrogant relief.

"Want some medicine? Sure."

He slowly released his grip on the military knife, leaned back, and one foot was already dangling in the air.

"May you be reborn into a better family in your next life, then I'll burn more paper money for you!"

After saying that, Qin Xiao gave the group of people an extremely contemptuous smile.

He fell backward abruptly, and was instantly swallowed by the dark abyss.

"No--!!!"

In the distance, Sui Sui, who had been clinging to Chu Kuang's back, desperately turned her head away.

Although she couldn't see clearly, her sonar glasses captured the outline of Qin Xiao falling in that instant.

That imposing figure, like a collapsing mountain, disappeared into the white mist.

Sui Sui felt as if the hole in her heart, which she had finally managed to mend, had shattered completely with a snap.

That kind of excruciating pain is a hundred times worse than genetic backlash.

"dad--!!!"

The child's innocent cries echoed through the valley, startling flocks of birds in the forest.

Sui Sui struggled to jump off Chu Kuang's back; she wanted to find her father.

"Sui Sui! Don't move!"

Chu Kuang's eyes were red and he held Sui Sui down tightly, his voice choked with sobs.

"That was a chance your father risked his life for! We have to go! We have to bring the medicine back!"

"I don't want medicine! I want my dad!"

Sui Sui scratched Chu Kuang's shoulder like a madwoman, her nails digging into his flesh, and blood flowed down Chu Kuang's back.

Gu Bei held Sui Sui's hand tightly, tears streaming down his face.

"Sui Sui, we must survive! Only by surviving can we avenge our great-father!"

His shadow led the way, his back looking particularly stiff in the wind and snow, his knuckles white as he gripped the gun.

They dared not turn back, because turning back would mean that Qin Xiao's sacrifice had been in vain.

Below the cliff, a glacier flows ceaselessly.

The river water crashed against the rocks, creating a deafening roar.

As Qin Xiao fell, he felt the wind cutting through his skin like a knife.

The feeling of weightlessness left his mind blank, and all the past events flashed before his eyes like a slideshow.

Lin Cang's smiling face, the warm red scarf, and the way Sui Sui looked when she first called him "Dad".

"Live on, year after year..."

He silently recited it in his heart, and then slammed heavily into the icy river water.

The immense impact instantly rendered him unconscious, and the exoskeleton armor carried him to the bottom of the water.

The river water, like molten iron, poured into his mouth and nose.

Meanwhile, the mercenary leader on the cliff, enraged, fired a burst of bullets into the air.

"Damn it! Crazy! They're all crazy!"

Looking down into the bottomless chasm, he knew that jumping in under those conditions would mean certain death.

"Retreat! Go downstream and intercept them. We need to find them alive or dead!"

The wind and snow covered all traces.

Only the broken military knife remained, forlornly stuck in a crevice in the rocks at the edge of the cliff.

Sui Sui's cries gradually weakened, and due to extreme grief and weakness, she fell into a coma again.

In her dream, she saw Qin Xiao standing in the snow, waving at her.

He smiled so brightly and said, "Sui Sui, Daddy will take you home."

But when Sui Sui reached out to grab him, Qin Xiao turned into a snowflake and vanished in the wind.

"dad……"

Sui Sui murmured in her sleep, cold tears streaming from the corners of her eyes.

Chu Kuang carried her on his back and ran wildly through the snow.

He didn't know how many enemies were ahead; all he knew was that he had to bring Sui Sui back.

This was Qin Xiao's final request.

That was the only reason these old brothers lived.

The roar of helicopters at Eagle's Beak Rock grew louder and louder.

The support troops sent by Shen Wansan finally arrived.

But the person who took them home never appeared again.

The night in Changbai Mountain is getting colder.

It was as if all the sorrow in the world was being frozen.
