Chapter 4: Before Hell
has food but can't eat, this is the truest portrayal of the four of Luo Bai.
Changyang Mingyue lay on the ground,* said, "Why did you come to suffer this sin? ”
Huo Zong, who was also lying on the ground, sneered: "Then what are you going to do?" Just go! ”
As soon as he finished speaking, he vomited again.
This really made Huo Zong angry, he kicked the cauldron and said angrily: "Bastard! ”
But when the food was spilled on the ground, it was stained with blood. Pieces of half-cooked flesh and blood still exuded a smell of flesh, drilling straight into the noses of the four people.
In an instant, the sound of vomiting, which had already stopped, came again.
Luo Bai had already vomited to the point that he could not vomit, so he could only retch.
He lay on the dead leaves, looked at the dim sky, and became groggy.
He thought of Arlo.
At this time, Arlo should make dinner, right?
Unfortunately, he couldn't eat it.
As night fell, the strength of the four of them had been almost consumed.
Changyang Mingyue muttered again: "You say, can we go back alive?" ”
Huo Zong didn't quarrel with him this time, but snorted coldly, which was a response.
Feng Ping meditated quietly and did not reply.
Luo Baiqiang breathed a sigh of relief and said, "This is not a sword mountain and a sea of fire, will it still kill us?" ”
Changyang Mingyue smiled bitterly: "This is not a sword mountain and a sea of fire, but it is better than a sword mountain and a sea of fire." ”
Hearing that Changyang Mingyue finally said the situation here, Luo Bai reluctantly gathered his energy to listen.
"The imperial court now has very few troops to use, but the war outside is extremely unfavorable, so the champion camp that has been closed since the first year of the current emperor Wutong has been restarted, in order to form an army worthy of a war in a short time."
Listening to Changyang Mingyue's explanation, compared with the previous cold words, Luo Bai showed a sudden look.
It turned out that Han Wuxin didn't lie to him, he really came to enlist in the army!
But......
"Why are there only four of us?"
Changyang Mingyue smiled bitterly: "Because we came in through the back door!" ”
Pull strings?
Luo Bai couldn't accept this statement for a while.
Feng Ping snorted coldly: "Don't count me in!" ”
Changyang Mingyue hurriedly added: "Feng Ping's strength is enough, but he didn't catch up with the selection, so it's ......."
An explanation to smooth out Feng Ping's unhappiness. He snorted coldly and closed his eyes again to meditate.
Luo Bai sat up slowly, looked at Feng Ping with a hint of perseverance on his face, and suddenly became interested in the champion camp.
"So what do we do now? Just staying here? ”
Changyang Mingyue sighed: "The champion camp is a secret of the imperial court, and it has cultivated too many pillars of the country. Because of this, our family elders went to great lengths to let us in through the back door. But the matter of the army, step by step. 'One will make ten thousand bones dry', either 'one will' or 'dry bones'. You say, is this a mountain of swords and a sea of fire? ”
Luo Bai looked at him with wide eyes: "Aren't you the only seedling of your family?" Are they willing to let you die? ”
Changyang Mingyue looked at the night sky, and the sadness in his eyes could only be experienced by himself: "A person who bears glory, if the glory is no longer there, then there is no need for this person to exist." ”
Luo Bai couldn't understand his words, but Feng Ping and Huo Zong both sighed.
Just when Luo Bai was about to ask again, the little fat man smiled bitterly: "Rest early, those of us who go through the back door always have to suffer a little to enter this door." ”
Luo Bai looked at the dense trees in front of him, and seemed to see the champion camp hidden behind them: there were swords, guns, swords, halberds, soldiers, horses, chariots, and cold light......
The time of the night passed quickly.
They were awakened by the sound of footsteps.
Feng Ping even subconsciously pulled out his long sword to defend himself.
When he saw the soldier from yesterday, he silently withdrew his sword.
Without much communication, the soldier looked at the cauldron and meat on the ground and said with a smile: "Don't like to eat?" Horse meat was delicious. ”
With a gesture, four other soldiers came over and took the cauldron and the meat.
"Heat it up, bring it to them."
Feng Ping stood silently and did not speak.
Huo Zong and Changyang Mingyue were very quiet, and they had no intention of resisting.
Luo Bai looked at them, then at the soldiers, and finally held back and didn't speak.
But if he doesn't speak, it doesn't mean that the other party will let him go: "I heard that you came late for one night, your courage is commendable." ”
Just as Luo Bai wanted to answer, the five people turned around and disappeared into the dense forest.
Feng Ping meditated again, and Huo Zong also learned from him to meditate to accumulate strength.
Changyang Mingyue patted Luo Bai's shoulder, wanting to comfort something, but finally sighed.
Luo Bai suddenly had an ominous premonition, feeling that he was being targeted by something.
They didn't have to wait long before five soldiers returned with a cauldron.
Needless to say, it's still horse meat in it.
Feng Ping was the first to go up again, he looked at the horse meat inside, turned around and vomited.
Luo Bai and the others frowned directly.
Supposedly, after yesterday's events, even if it is still uncomfortable, it won't be like this, right?
Luo Bai thought about the bloody things he saw yesterday, and he couldn't help but gause, and his scalp was numb.
He didn't come forward.
Huo Zong and the others stepped forward to take a look, and turned around directly and vomited.
This time, the other party played a new trick: the half-cooked horse meat was also poured with a layer of fresh meat puree with a moderate thickness. After mixing the fine bone chips, minced meat, and hair, it is stirred with horse blood to make it look like chili sauce.
At a glance, the two couldn't help it.
This time, they vomited so dizzily that they almost didn't vomit their intestines.
Seeing them vomit, the five soldiers laughed heartlessly.
"Yesterday's meat is no longer fresh, I deliberately added some fresh meat puree on top, isn't it great?"
After vomiting, Feng Ping and the three looked at them coldly and did not speak.
The five soldiers also knew that they would not be welcomed, and turned their gaze to Luo Bai.
"Boy, although they are useless, they still dare to take a look, why don't you even dare to look at it?"
Luo Bai's face turned pale and he didn't answer.
He already knew what he had to do here, and he couldn't let anyone know about his fear of blood.
Last night, he used Feng Ping's three people to vomit to hide his fear, but now, if he goes up, it will not be as simple as vomiting.
All he can do at the moment is pretend.
Seeing that Luo Bai didn't even have the courage to speak, the five of them smiled and said, "No wonder it's the last, I'm afraid it was caught after escaping and being tied up by the elders and sent here, right?" ”
Luo Bai still didn't speak.
The five of them laughed a few words, and when they saw that Luo Bai didn't refute, they suddenly felt bored and turned in.
The four of Luo Bai glanced at each other, tacitly took a few steps back, and tried to stay away from the cauldron.
They are so scared that they will spit it out when they look at it.
After not eating for a day and a night, plus vomiting twice, the four of them were mentally depressed.
Luo Bai sat on the ground, hugging his legs, and shrunk into a ball.
Before he came, he froze all night, and experienced everything from yesterday, plus it was still raining lightly at the moment, and they were wearing soaked clothes, and they felt even more cold to the bone marrow.
He did not hold on a little.
Feng Ping saw his abnormality, half-squatted in front of him and said, "Your physique is too poor." With your current situation, I'm afraid you won't be able to hold on to our entry. ”
Luo Bai had already begun to swing, trembling uncontrollably, and he couldn't even speak.
"That's it...... I can't help it...... Do you want to go in? ”
Feng Ping got up, looked at the dense forest not far away, and said in a deep voice: "Either hold on until they let us in, or turn back, there are only these two ways." ”
Luo Bai looked at the dense forest and said to himself, "What is there that attracts us?" ”
Feng Ping was speechless.
Hidden in it was the champion camp that the entire imperial court believed could turn the tide of the war. It was the place that shaped the era of the stars in the Great Xia Dynasty, and it was the holy land of the military world.
That's why he'd rather carry the reputation of "going through the back door" and come in too.
These Luo Bai didn't know.
He withdrew his gaze and struggled to his feet. The sky swirled and he fainted.
When I woke up again, it was already night.
He looked around and found that Feng Ping and the others were meditating and resting to conserve their strength.
The four-mouth pot for horse meat is still not far away.
Luo Bai shrank back, didn't want to move, looked at the darkness above his head, and fell asleep again.
In the early morning, I was still woken up by those soldiers.
They took Guo away and brought the pot again. Then stand aside with your chest crossed, waiting to see the joke.
This time, the first one to go up was not Feng Ping, but Luo Bai.
Feng Ping subconsciously wanted to hold it, but was thrown away by Luo Bai.
In the astonished eyes of everyone, he walked over to the cauldron.
Huo Zong immediately shouted: "Come back quickly, if you vomit, we will vomit too!" ”
Luo Bai was as if he hadn't heard of it.
In their surprised gaze, Luo Bai tore off his shirt, tore off a section, and blindfolded himself.
He took a deep breath and reached into the pot with lightning speed.
Huo Zong and Changyang Mingyue directly turned around and vomited.
Feng Ping endured his vomit and continued to look, as if he understood something.
There was a feeling of adhesion in his right hand, and Luo Bai's mind suddenly appeared with the blurred appearance of flesh and blood he saw last night. My stomach cramped, and I was about to vomit.
At this moment, he withdrew his hand with lightning and stuffed the meat puree into his mouth!
I didn't chew it, I swallowed it directly!
Looking at Luo Bai's surging Adam's apple, his blood-stained right hand and the blood-stained corners of his mouth, as well as a few strands of flesh hanging from the corners of his mouth, Feng Ping finally couldn't hold back and spit it out.
Luo Bai followed, and before he could swallow the meat puree, he spit it out.
The meat puree was mixed with the gastric juice that had been separated for I don't know how many days, and Qi Brush spit it out.
The feeling of turning over the river and the sea comes and goes quickly.
When he vomited clean, he turned to face Feng Ping.
Huo Zong looked at him with difficulty, and endured it very hard: "Then you can eat it?" ”
Who knew that Luo Bai laughed and said, "It tastes good!" ”
Then he turned around and ate again.
This time, he ate casually.
Feng Ping didn't vomit this time, he took a step forward, also reached out to grab the meat puree, and ate it.
This scene made Huo Zong and the others dumbfounded, and they couldn't help but murmur: "Crazy! Lose your marbles! It's all insane! ”
Not surprisingly, as soon as the two swallowed, they both knelt on the ground, supporting the ground with their hands, and vomited.
But when they had finished spitting up, they grabbed the mashed meat again and ate it.
Once, twice, three times......
When Luo Baitu's stomach cramped and his stomach twitched, he finally couldn't tell what he was eating.
He stopped throwing up and swallowed smoothly.
His hands were covered in blood, and the green clothes on his chest were also stained with blood.
Luo Bai kept laughing and kept shouting: "It's delicious!" Delicious! ”
Feng Ping felt that he was crazy, but watching him eat flesh and blood one bite at a time, there was a touch in his heart.
Perhaps, this is the first skill he will learn when he comes to the Champions Camp.
He swallowed it and ate it too.
Seeing that he was eating so hard, Huo Zong and Changyang Mingyue finally reacted with hindsight.
The two glanced at each other, rushed over, grabbed the flesh with their hands, and ate it.
Like Luo Bai, before they could swallow it, they turned around and vomited.
Then eat and vomit again until you don't vomit.
The half-cooked horse meat in the four cauldrons was mixed with "condiments", and they saw the bottom while spitting and eating.
Luo Bai didn't take off the strip of cloth, he lay on the ground, his whole body was bloody, but he laughed wildly.
