Chapter 53
Although Shang Si was thinking about other things just now, he didn't miss Arnold's explanation with two minds. But it's one thing to know, it's another thing to put it into practice.
Some things feel very easy to watch others do, but if you start doing it yourself, you will find that it is not like that at all. The group of the 8th detachment fully understood this feeling this time.
This time, not only the adults in the village participated in the wheat cutting competition, but also many elderly people and children also participated, not to win, but to have a good omen for the next year's harvest, which is why the members of the eighth team have not yet become the bottom one.
But it's a shame that a group of able-bodied young adults are mixed in a second group of old people and children......
After being overtaken by an old man who was not young and had gray hair, Shang Si wanted to support his forehead again, and the number of times he wanted to support his forehead today is estimated to have been used up for a year. He looked at both sides with his peripheral vision, and found that his teammates were also in the same progress as him, and they were completely dead and rushed into the hearts of the first group.
Technology is not made in a day, whether it is fighting a war or harvesting wheat, without the accumulation of experience, it is useless to have empty strength.
β¦β¦
Harvest festivals are always in a joyful mood, and even in small mountain villages, the festivities continue from the rising of the sun to the fall of the night.
The stars lit up in the night sky, and bonfires rose on the ground. Joyful people sing and dance around the bonfire to celebrate this year's harvest and look forward to a good year next year.
Tonight, the barley wine in the village is served free of charge, and anyone can hold a cup, and at the stall next to the campfire, you can have a beautiful waitress help fill it. Of course, you can also do it yourself. But if there is a chance to talk to a beautiful girl, what young lad will give up?
Xiao Yi held a glass of barley wine and stood in the corner watching the lively crowd.
Due to the light and the surrounding arrangement, this corner is in a very easily overlooked place, so Xiao Yi has stood here for so long without being noticed.
But this does not apply to those who know him well.
Yan Kou waved goodbye to a kind of girl around him, and gave a flying kiss back as he walked, and the girls laughed loudly, although many of them returned a flying kiss to Yan Kou, but it was full of jokes.
"Hey, hey, the old man is still so popular~" Yan Kou waved to the girls (of course, causing a string of laughter) while showing off to Xiao Yi.
Xiao Yi secretly rolled his eyes in his heart, but he didn't bother to poke him.
"Hey, don't stop talking."
Xiao Yi thought to himself, what are you asking me to say? Do you express envy, jealousy, and hatred for you entertaining girls like a big horse monkey?
Yan Kou pursed his lips, knowing that Xiao Yi was thin-skinned, and he was embarrassed to say that he was envious of him. However, he didn't come to him this time to get him to admit it.
Yan Kou poked Xiao Yi with his elbow: "Old Xiao, what's wrong between you and the team leader?" β
"We? We don't have anything. β
"Don't come to this set, we've worked together for so many years, I still don't know you!" Yan Kou said, "What? Do you even want to hide it from me? β
Xiao Yi's index finger unconsciously rubbed the cup in his hand and said, "It's not a big deal, you know, he replaced Bird ...... that time."
"Can't you see?"
Xiao Yi was silent.
"You're not going to teach people with righteous words, are you?"
Xiao Yi's continuous silence let Yan Kou know that he was asking this question again, with Xiao Yi's character, how could he not open his mouth to teach others.
His old comrade-in-arms has a steady face, but it is an active volcano inside, and it will explode at one point, but that face is too deceptive. He had been deceived by this serious face several times before, and he had learned enough lessons before he had a long memory.
However...... "You're so embarrassed to teach our squad leader a lesson?" Have you forgotten all the things you did? Think back then, who knocked me out behind before I entered the mecha cabin? Secretly piloting my mecha to complete the mission, you don't know that it's a shame to steal credit! The more Yan Kou spoke, the more excited he became, and he suddenly pouted all the previous things, "At that time, why didn't you say that the commander has the responsibility of the commander, and the soldier has the responsibility of the soldier!" If it was Lao Tzu that time, he would definitely be promoted three levels in a row! β
Xiao Yi coughed: "The military department stipulates that the registered soldiers can be promoted to two levels at a time, except for ......"
Yan Kou savagely interrupted Xiao Yi's words: "Lao Tzu said that if he can be promoted three levels in a row, he can be promoted to three levels in a row!" β
But after saying this, Yan Kou himself burst out laughing: "Speaking of which, your injury was really serious that time, I thought I was going to help you sort out your relics." Not...... Who are you going to leave that Draya laser gun on your bedside table for? β
Yan Kou looked at Xiao Yi expectantly.
The green tendons on Xiao Yi's forehead jumped up one by one.
"Leave it to my grandson!"
"Xiao Yi, your sister!"
β¦β¦
They both laughed, and then they both stopped at the same time. The laughter of the crowd not far away could be heard clearly, but the corner became quieter and quieter.
Yan Ko's gaze smeared through the crowd, looking into the distant horizon hidden in the night. Through the darkness, it seems that you can see a long time ago.
"At that time, I was really stupid and naΓ―ve, with a momentum, I had the courage to do anything." Yan Kou said slowly, his voice full of vicissitudes that could not be concealed.
Hearing Yan Kou's words, Xiao Yi also recalled the past many years ago.
At that time, he had just enlisted in the army, and he was a rookie who didn't know anything, and Yan Kou, who was also a rookie, and a group of newcomers formed a small team.
The young people entered the unit with ideals in mind, and they all dreamed of becoming heroes to destroy the Zerg with their own efforts. Even though the years of war have taught people the cruelty of war, the young people still despise the reality without having been on the battlefield themselves, and only by virtue of the number of groups.
Xiao Yi back then was also one of these people, he would also drive the mecha and B-class Zerg alone on impulse, and he would also choose to go on top because he didn't want to watch his teammates sacrifice. But then, the long and tragic war forced everyone to learn to mature, to learn to give up feelings, and to leave only reason.
"Speaking of which, at that time, you and I were the only ones left in the PW2030 team who were still alive......" Yan Kou said.
Xiao Yi was silent, Yan Kou didn't mean to ask him to answer, he sighed:
"Don't rush too hard, there are some things he will learn sooner or later."
Xiao Yi didn't answer, but when Yan Kou left, he whispered:
"I just don't want him to be too upset when he has to learn this."
β¦β¦
Not far away, laughter and laughter kept coming, people laughed around the bonfire, I don't know who started first, and then everyone sang a cheerful song:
Happy times are always short-lived
But please do not grieve
While the bonfire is not extinguished
While the glass is still full
Sing and dance
Please remember to be happy
Please forget jì sadness
