Duan Shaoling understood his thoughts, and went up to help him first, and said to everyone: "Let's help break some branches to support the students in need, so that everyone can reach the top of the mountain on time." Many people were already very tired, and when they heard Duan Shaoling say this, several classmates cheered up and helped together, and soon they broke more than a dozen branches and distributed them to those in need.

Duan Shaoling said: "There is not much time left, I propose that we can work in groups of three or four people at the same time to support each other, so as to ensure that nothing goes wrong." ”

Unexpectedly, Duan Shaoling's words did not cause much resonance, Instructor Liu was selfless, some people were tired, but they were sure that they could reach the top of the mountain on time, if they delayed the time to go up the mountain in order to help others, they would definitely be severely punished. Training is already hard enough, and no one wants to add an extra burden. One by one, they walked silently past Duan Shaoling's side.

After walking the stone road steps, the road behind was really irregular and difficult to walk, sharp, steep, rugged and narrow, and they sincerely began to admire Chen Zui's thoughtfulness, the branches can not only remove a small part of gravity, but also resist the stones, so as not to lose the center of gravity. However, it can only be relieved slightly, plus they have rested a total of three times, each time they dare not exceed three minutes, and the further they go, the more tired they are.

"Oops." Suddenly, an exclamation was heard from the crowd, and everyone stopped, Lu Baiting's branch did not hold steady on the ground, and slipped from the side, and even the people with him were about to fall.

As soon as Li Chengjing, who was in front of him, heard the voice behind him, he immediately looked behind him, and saw that he was not in a good condition, so he reached out and grabbed his sleeve like lightning, and then the classmates next to him also reached out to help him, so as not to fall.

Looking at Lu Baiting's face again was pale and panicked, and he just took two steps firmly, his legs were trembling. Li Chengjing suddenly walked to his side and took his left hand, "I'll help you up the mountain." ”

Lu Baiting was stunned for a moment, and was about to shake off Li Chengjing, "You go up the mountain first, leave me alone, you will be punished." He knew that it would not be difficult for Li Chengjing to go up the mountain by himself with the strength of her feet, and he would only drag her down. Lu Baiting usually likes to take advantage of small advantages, and he never wants to affect others because of himself.

Li Chengjing insisted on saying: "If you know, don't waste my time." At the same time, his hands tightened, and he pulled him forward. After walking a few steps, there was another person on Lu Baiting's right hand, it was Chen Zui.

"If you have three people together, you can go faster."

At this time, some changes took place in the crowd, and many people began to silently join the classmates next to them on the mountain.

Instructor Liu kept looking at his pocket watch on the top of the mountain, and when the time was about to end ten minutes, he saw that some people were going up the mountain alone, and some were coming to the top of the mountain in groups of three or five.

As soon as the "beep ......" whistle sounded, the time had come. Unfortunately, not everyone reached the top of the mountain on time, and Lu Baiting finally arrived at the top of the mountain two minutes early with the help of the two of them. A total of nine people were still desperately rushing up when the whistle blew, and unfortunately, they still exceeded the one-and-a-half-hour limit set by Instructor Liu.

Instructor Liu glanced at them again, and then saw the branches in their hands, "With the branches as support, which of you took the lead first?" ”

Instructor Liu's tone was full of reproach, everyone was silent, and no one pointed out Chen Zui, but Chen Zui himself opened his mouth to admit: "Instructor, I took the lead, so that everyone will go faster." ”

Instructor Liu continued to ask, "Then who asked you to come up with your companions like this?" Is it also drunk? ”

"Instructor, it's me." Li Chengjing said.

"Didn't I tell you that those who don't arrive on time will be punished? Why would you still want to do this? Do you think I'll be soft-hearted for the sake of your unity? ”

Li Chengjing met Instructor Liu's gaze and said, "They are my companions, and I don't want to leave my companions behind." ”

"If you exceed the time, you can only go down the mountain after doing a hundred push-ups here, and the other students will supervise it here."

"Yes, Instructor."

Seeing that Instructor Liu was about to turn around and go down the mountain, he turned around again, "The punishment is because the military order is like a mountain, but I am very pleased with your behavior today, I hope that more students will continue to participate in this situation in the future, although every time they can't complete it, they will be punished together."

No matter how strong an individual's ability is, he is just a person, and there is a limit to what he can do. What can create miracles must be the power of unity, just like a wolf is not terrible no matter how powerful it is, but the power of a pack of wolves can move a tiger.

You all remove the sandbags on your feet, Chen Zui and Cheng Jing stayed to watch the nine students finish the push-ups, and the other students, after the rest, if you want to go down the mountain, go down the mountain freely. ”

It's really bald on this top, it's bald at the bottom of the mountain, and the top of the mountain is even bald, not to mention the trees, and there is not even a lawn where you can sit down and rest. They were so tired that they couldn't take care of it so much, so they sat down on clean stones, and those who didn't had to sit on the ground and rest. The only good thing is that the top of the mountain is ventilated on all sides.

Everyone rested for a while, the fatigue on their bodies gradually eased, and the wind blew them less stuffy.

Lu Baiting stood up first and walked to Li Chengjing's side, "Chengjing, thank you and Chen Zui just now, otherwise I would definitely not be able to go up the mountain." I'll treat you to dinner on Sunday. ”

Fu Baoyi smiled: "If you ask for dinner, then I'm afraid you will have to cover their food for three months." "Fu Baoyi relied on his own ability, although it was not easy, but he just pinched the point to the top of the mountain.

Lu Baiting was ridiculed but not angry at all, "Is it just a meal, as long as they are willing, what if they invite them to eat for three months?" ”

Li Chengjing glanced at Zou Baoyi, "It doesn't matter if you eat or not, as long as you work harder in the future, when you can complete the task on your own, do you see if Baoyi dares to make fun of you."

Lu Baiting nodded, "I'll work hard." ”

"Chengjing, I have a question I've always wanted to ask you, I don't know if you mind...... ' voice became crisp, like holding a lollipop to coax a child to tell the truth

Li Chengjing looked at him with six points of sincerity, and four points of playfulness and naughtiness, "You want to inquire about Chu Xian again, right?" I've told you that I'm new to her, and I'm ...... to you."

"That's not what I'm asking." Lu Baiting decisively interrupted Li Chengjing's words.

"And what else do you want to ask?"

Lu Baiting said: "Now we are not only classmates, but also good friends who share hardships, I also know that you are very good, but I still don't know something, why did you come to train with us, and the infantry department did not say that it wanted to recruit girls, why did you only recruit you?"

After four o'clock, the sun was not as strong and dazzling as just now, and the wind on the top of the mountain was not small, and after sitting for a while, most of the people's physical strength had recovered eighty.

Li Chengjing noticed that the eyes around her were looking at her, and the expected thing was not to ask now, after a while, after becoming more familiar, they would definitely ask.

"Looks like you're all wondering." Li Chengjing smiled, "Then I won't hide it from you, my father has stayed abroad, so he doesn't have a feudal and pedantic concept of male superiority and inferiority, but his thinking and vision are broad, he told me since I was a child that I want my daughter to be self-reliant in troubled times."

Under the influence of my father, my personality is naturally different from those pampered ladies since I was a child, and I think I can still do what you boys can do. Including coming to the military academy for training.

As for why the school accepted me, it was because my father and Principal Guo were old friends, and my father asked him to let me in. ”

The crowd looked left and right, and seemed to feel that Li Chengjing's words were evasive and trivial, and it was not the answer they wanted.

Seeing that everyone was not satisfied with Li Chengjing's explanation, Chen Zui stood up and said; "Ladies and gentlemen, the unity that the instructor said is that we must have the heart of helping each other in the same boat, we just need to know what kind of person Cheng Jing is, why bother to find out everything clearly? Do you still want to ask who Cheng Jing's father is? Who here can tell all the reasons for his background and coming to the military academy? ”

Everyone was silent, and no one was willing to reveal their affairs.

Lu Baiting regretted that he was curious for a while, and said the wrong thing, and smiled at Li Chengjing: "I'm just curious, and I don't mean anything else." Chengjing, don't take it to heart. Chen Zui is right, as long as we are classmates and good friends, this is enough. ”

Li Chengjing did not make any statement.

"Except for me and Cheng Jing, there are also classmates who have to do push-ups, everyone else should hurry down the mountain, otherwise they will stay here collectively to watch the sunset, the scenery here is so bad, I am not interested at all." Chen Zuiyang raised his eyebrows at Li Chengjing, saw the corner of Li Chengjing's mouth smile, and thanked him for relieving him.

"Nine students are ready to pose, I'll count."

Chen Zui just wanted to count, but saw that no one had the consciousness to go down the mountain first. In addition to the nine of them, some of the classmates also lay down silently, those few were mostly people who had their own ability but did not help other classmates, if they went up the mountain in groups of three to four according to Duan Shaoling's proposal, maybe all of them would be able to reach the top of the mountain within the specified time. In the end, they chose to go it alone for fear of punishment.

Maybe it was Li Chengjing's behavior that made them sigh to themselves, and it was Instructor Liu's words that made them fall into shame, since they missed an opportunity to share weal and woe, they didn't want to miss the second time.

"One, two, three...... Forty, forty-one......"

When he went down the mountain, Lu Baiting walked in front of Li Chengjing again, "This sandbag is too heavy, let me help you get it." Without waiting for Li Chengjing to agree, he reached out directly to take it, and the words were all about this, not letting him take it was his own refute of his face, anyway, he was happy and relaxed, and accepted his "repayment" as a matter of course. ”

It was much easier to descend than up, and in more than half an hour they had reached the bottom of the mountain.
