But at this time, dry food and water were more expensive than anything else, and everyone was rationed, and no one could eat with an open stomach. No one wants to share it with them.

Wan Shi'an and Pang Ziqiang waited beside others without interest, and when they saw who ate the residues, they went up and grabbed them crazily.

For a piece of cake the size of a fingernail, Wan Shi'an and Pang Ziqiang actually fought, and finally their hands were cut by the sharp edges and corners of the stone, and blood flowed.

Zhao Houzhu couldn't stand it anymore, and broke the remaining half of the cake in his hand into two halves and gave it to Wan Shi'an and Pang Ziqiang.

After the two got the cake, they immediately devoured it and stuffed it into their mouths.

Ma Dongbao saw the embarrassment of the two of them, and he couldn't help but feel a sadness in his heart. Two people who usually look at it so much, and now they are fighting for such a little bread, which shows how strong people's craving for food is when they are hungry.

But the others marched so many miles in the same hurry, and they were not as embarrassed as the two of them, probably because the two of them were too fat, and the food they brought was not enough at all.

Regarding Zhao Houzhu's eldest brother's righteous act, Ma Dongbao saw it in his eyes and was moved in his heart. Brother Zhao marched in a hurry like everyone else, and he also took turns to help everyone with their backpacks, and at this time he also shared his own insufficient food with others.

What seems to be a very ordinary act in ordinary times is especially noble at this special time.

After Zhao Houzhu distributed his cake to Wan Shi'an and Pang Ziqiang, he stretched out his waist and reclined on the slope of the big stone, basking in the warm sun.

Ma Dongbao leaned over, said hello, and lay down beside Brother Zhao.

Zhao Houzhu hurriedly moved to the side to make room for Ma Dongbao.

Ma Dongbao lay down beside Brother Zhao, took out half a piece of cake and quietly handed it to Zhao Houzhu.

After Zhao Houzhu took the cake, he was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect Ma Dongbao to take the initiative to give half a piece of cake to himself, and hurriedly excused himself: "You better eat it yourself, I'm a veteran, I can carry it myself." ”

Ma Dongbao whispered: "Brother Zhao, you still eat, you have walked so many ways, and you have helped everyone so much." ”

Zhao Houzhu was still embarrassed to refuse.

"Brother Zhao, you can eat it. Ma Dongbao insisted: "I'm going to go up the mountain in a while, the mountain may be more dangerous, who needs Brother Zhao to come to the rescue in case of a situation, how can I have the strength to help others if I can't eat?"

Hearing this, Zhao Houzhu hesitated slightly, took the cake and stuffed it into his mouth: "That's okay, I'll listen to Dongbao, thank you, brother!"

"Be polite to me, if you want to say thank you, the person who should say thank you the most is us, we should thank you, the big brother, for taking care of all of us all all the time. Ma Dongbao said with a smile.

Zhao Houzhu seemed to be touched, and when he opened his mouth to say something, he didn't say it after all, just chewing the food in his mouth vigorously.

Ma Dongbao evened out the little food, wasn't he hungry?

Hungry, that's for sure. But Ma Dongbao was not tired at all, and not long after the rapid march officially began, the mysterious power of Ma Dongbao's physical strength began to play a role.

Ma Dongbao ran all the way down very easily, so he had the ability to even out half a piece of cake.

Since I was about to enter the mountain in a while, this time the rest time was relatively long. After replenishing food and water, many people fell asleep on the ground.

Zhao Houzhu was still lying on the stone at this time, took out a wallet from his arms, looked at it carefully, a happy smile flowed out of his face, and the warm sunlight hit his face, making this feeling of happiness a little warmer.

"What are you looking at, so happy to see it?" Ma Dongbao asked as he leaned over to look.

"Look, this is your sister-in-law Chunhua, it's beautiful, right?" Zhao Houzhu showed Ma Dongbao the photo in his wallet, his face full of happiness.

"This is the sister-in-law of Chunhua?" Ma Dongbao took the photo and looked at it carefully, there was a young woman smiling in the photo, with a clean and handsome face, smiling sweetly, "Sister-in-law is so beautiful, like a bouquet of flowers swaying in the spring breeze." ”

"This is my son, Little Bean. Zhao Houzhu's face was full of happiness and pride, and he pointed to a little boy next to Chunhua and said: "This is still what I left over when I was on family leave in the local army for a year, and I have grown so big in a blink of an eye." ”

The little boy in the photo looks about three or four years old, snuggling next to the spring flower and smiling a little timidly, showing a mouthful of white teeth, and two big and bright eyes.

"Xiaodouzi is so beautiful, like Brother Zhao. ”

"Hehe!" Zhao Houzhu smiled, "It's good-looking, not like ...... It's not like me, it's like a ......."

"Well, it's as good-looking as his mother, but these eyes are very similar to you, and the heroism between your eyebrows is too similar to Brother Zhao. ”

"Oh, is it? like, like a little ......," Zhao Houzhu admitted embarrassedly.

"Brother Zhao, do you usually miss your sister-in-law and your children?"

"Yes. After Zhao Houzhu finished speaking, his eyes turned red, "I think about it in my dreams, how do you think about their two lives?"

"So I didn't leave a penny of the monthly allowance in the army to my mother, just hoping that the two of them would have a better life. ”

"Speaking of which, I'm sorry for your sister-in-law, I haven't seen each other once a year, especially Xiaodouzi, I've seen him once since he was born when he was less than 1 year old, and I haven't seen him again, and I don't know if this child recognizes me as a father when he sees me?"

"I'm sure I'll recognize your heroic father!"

"Yes, in their hearts, they have always thought that I was a big hero when I was a soldier, defending my family and defending the country, and my son often mentioned that my father was a big hero in front of his friends, and he was especially proud of me!"

"Brother Zhao is a hero, and he is more and more in my heart. Ma Dongbao said emotionally.

Ma Dongbao returned the photo to Zhao Houzhu, and Zhao Houzhu couldn't put it down and looked at it repeatedly.

In the evening, the official entry into the mountain was announced.

Everyone packed their backpacks and started to climb the mountain.

The Daqing Mountains are majestic and straight, and the mountains are steep. The trees are lush and full of thorns. Not long after everyone climbed the mountain, they began to miss the rapid march on the flat ground.

The mountain road was so difficult to climb that not only was there no road, but there were also rattan branches everywhere. It didn't take long to crawl out, and everyone's hands were already covered with blood, and their bodies were also scratched by branches.

The only fortunate thing is that there is no one behind to urge the whipping.

It didn't take long to climb out, maybe the trees on the big green mountain were too dense, and Ma Dongbao felt that the light was already very dim, as if it was already dark.

Zhao Houzhu himself opened the way for everyone in front, and took out a rope for everyone to grab, and walked forward along the road he opened, while preventing everyone from rolling down the mountain.

Although Ma Dongbao also felt that it was difficult to walk, it was okay because the mysterious power in his body had been activated, and it was not so difficult to get up.

By this time, the surroundings had completely darkened, and there was no trace of the sky to be seen when I looked up, and it was full of trees and vines.

Some of the squads had already turned on their light tubes, and the stars were shaking everywhere.

Ma Dongbao saw a lot of dark shadows, but he didn't care about it at first.

But when he was a god, he found that there was also a dark shadow on the big screen in his mind, wandering next to the team that was climbing.

This one shadow is different from the others, the other shadows are crawling and staggering on the hillside with difficulty. This black shadow seemed very relaxed and elegant, as if it was flying close to the ground.

Ma Dongbao immediately broke out in a cold sweat, what is this black shadow? Could it be some kind of beast or fierce bird in this mountain?

Ma Dongbao enlarged the big screen in his mind, and although the black shadow was also enlarged, he couldn't see it clearly after magnifying it, but it seemed to be caught in a black fog.

What kind of existence is this? A big question mark formed in Ma Dongbao's mind, and he broke out in a cold sweat.

He didn't dare to shout out loud, and when he looked around for the instructor, he found that the instructor Wei Yi was not beside him. And since after going up the mountain, there was actually no road on the mountain at all, so the teams scattered to find their own way. No other instructors were seen either.

Ma Dongbao had no choice but to silently follow the team, always paying attention to the movements of this mysterious black shadow.

The mysterious black shadow didn't make any special moves, but it was not far away, it was not close, and it followed as if it was away.

The mountain road was very rugged, Wan Shi'an and Pang Ziqiang had already cried and screamed, and they sat still at every turn, so that the whole team had to stop and wait for them.

Zhao Houzhu had no choice but to suggest that everyone climb to a slightly gentle place in front of them to rest for a short time, and Wan Shi'an and Pang Ziqiang kept up with the team.

Finally able to rest, Wan Shi'an and Pang Ziqiang collapsed to the ground at once, crying out hungry and thirsty. In fact, it was not only the two of them who were hungry and thirsty, but everyone felt hungry and thirsty.

Zhao Houzhu took out tools from his backpack, including military thorns and a small shovel, and led everyone to the surrounding area to find wild fruits that could be eaten.

Ma Dongbao didn't go with Zhao Houzhu and the others to find food, but leaned on a rock, pretending to rest, and actually kept observing the mysterious black shadow.

When Ma Dongbao and his team stopped, the black shadow also stopped, staring at them not far ahead, and from time to time it seemed to be reporting the situation to the outside world.

Ma Dongbao suddenly came to his senses, could it be that this mysterious black shadow in front of him was a black fish? They looked for every opportunity to approach the recruits and eliminate them.

Thinking of this, Ma Dongbao was not calm, he took out the military thorn from his backpack and quietly approached the black shadow from the side.

As the team stopped to recuperate, the personnel began to disperse, some went out to find food, and some rested in place. The black shadow kept paying attention to the players in all directions, but not the side and back.

Ma Dongbao slowly approached the black shadow from the side and back, 5 meters, 3 meters, 1 meter, Ma Dongbao was already very close, but he still couldn't see what this black shadow was.

On the big screen in my mind, it was a thick black fog that was close to a human form.
