Zhang Zhansheng was afraid of snakes since he was a child, and his parents didn't know that he had this weakness.

Moreover, Zhang Zhansheng has always been the strongest among his brothers and sisters, so he naturally will not let them discover where their fears are...... The Badaohe area has long been the most prosperous place in the world, not to mention seeing snakes on the road, even earthworms are difficult to see.

But the Manila area is different, not too far from their construction and development is still a world of wild beasts and insects.

Therefore, Zhang Zhan's fear of snakes was quickly discovered by everyone...... Many people were secretly relieved.

It turns out that such a brilliant guy has his own weaknesses.

In fact, there are also people in the team who are afraid of snakes, but after knowing that Zhang Zhan is afraid of snakes, they have confessed that they have never been afraid of snakes.

In response to Zhang Zhan's weakness of being afraid of snakes, instructor Ao Haiqing smiled wickedly and said to his deputies: "How can the soldiers of the Imperial Navy be afraid of snakes?!" Go, catch some non-venomous snakes to ......"

As a result, Zhang Zhansheng was miserable...... The next day, he was suddenly locked in a cabin by an assistant instructor, locked the hatch, and ordered him to stay in it for ten minutes!

Under the light of the kerosene gas lamp, Zhang Zhansheng saw two terrible snakes, their bodies were a full one and a half meters long, and they were twisted there...... The thin evil tail is still wagging endlessly!

Zhang Zhansheng endured his fear, sat in the corner of the wall and closed his eyes and did not look at the snake...... He seemed to hear snakes crawling towards him, and he could smell the smell of something fishy in the air...... Upon another sneak peek, the snake was still wrestling there, not crawling over......

Ten minutes later, but it seemed like two hours long, instructor Ao Haiqing opened the helm door and came in.

Zhang Zhansheng's face was pale, he stood up with his support on the corner of the wall, and reluctantly saluted.

"The Empire is with us......"

Instructor Ao Haiqing returned the military salute, and then walked around the cabin with a frown, his military boots clattering on the deck.

The sound of the military boots seemed to sound in Zhang Zhansheng's heart.

How can a nice guy be so afraid of snakes?!

At that time, the instructor Ao Hai was no longer in the mood to watch the excitement early in the morning, which was a problem!

How can such a good young talent be scared like this by those long worms crawling around and pretending to be vicious?!

Instructor Ao Haiqing thought for a while and said, "If the snake meat is cooked, it is a delicious ......."

"Yes instructor, I've heard of it."

"It is also said to be a useful medicinal herb...... Its skin can be made into a beautiful dagger set ......"

"Yes instructor, I've heard of it."

"In this world, I have only seen a kind of snake that actively attacks people...... On Quang Nam West Road, I encountered an arm-thick mountain wind that came at me from a distance away...... I was so happy that I took it and sold it for ten dollars...... I was as old as you and seventeen years old.

Later, I didn't have that good life, and the profession of snake hunting was very hard...... Until the Imperial Navy took me in. ”

“…… You weren't afraid of snakes as a child? ”

"I was scared at first...... But I'm more afraid of poverty...... For me, snakes are strings of money that move, so I'm going to like it more and more......"

Ao Haiqing suddenly asked, "What did your father do?" ”

He ...... He's an agricultural technician......"

Instructor Ao Haiqing sighed and said, "Good job, no wonder you are so smart, you don't look like a poor child at all." ”

In the Confederate Empire, those who could be called technicians, whether in industry or agriculture, generally earned more than officers of the same age.

"So you will be afraid of snakes, and I will be afraid of poverty...... Well, let's see how scary snakes are......"

Then he picked up the two snakes, which were actually tied together, and pinched the heads of the two snakes with both hands, and both snakes opened their mouths, revealing a row of sharp teeth.

"You see, that's the only thing they can hurt you...... What a poor little reptile, how lucky you are to survive in the wild, but you are frightened by their appearance......"

Zhang Zhansheng swallowed his saliva, and when he tried to look, they did only have a row of small sharp teeth...... Attack yourself with this weapon?

It doesn't seem like a big deal......

"Poisonous snakes are a little more powerful, I'll show you tomorrow......"

As a result, the instructor Ao Haiqing personally caught several poisonous snakes and asked Zhang Zhansheng to look at their fangs, and asked him to touch the snakes slowly...... Until he dared to pinch the head of the snake himself and let the snake body wrap around his arm.

At that time, the instructor Ao Haiqing asked proudly: "Zhan Sheng, are you still afraid of snakes?" ”

"I'm still afraid...... But I saw that they had the ability to dodge, and there was no need to fight the vipers unless there was no other choice. ”

Instructor Ao Haiqing was choked, but this kid was quite honest.

This is something that everyone knows...... When the deputy instructor nominated Zhang Zhansheng to be the captain commander, the instructor Ao Haiqing deliberately said it again.

Everyone laughed and laughed, and it was over...... Everyone has flaws, and there is no perfect captain commander in this world.

The Imperial Navy requires the captain and commander to have the ability to command and manage and adapt to the situation, as well as to have the character of courage and responsibility, and of course, it is better to have a certain amount of charisma...... Zhang Zhansheng does not seem to lack these characteristics.
