Life in a military school is monotonous, boring and tense. The head teacher of Shuijiashan is very strict with them. The life of two points and one line is regular and rigid. Ximen Iron Hammer's house is eighty miles away from Nanyan Town, and his family is in the countryside near the river. When he first arrived, he was very homesick, thinking about his parents and grandparents, and what he missed most was the free and unrestrained time at home. And military school is completely a tense and forced life.

Every morning, I get up at half past five, wash up, drink a bowl of boiling water, gather in the playground, and start running along the Qingxi River at half past six. Breakfast at 7:50, martial arts training from 9 to 11 a.m., lunch and lunch break at noon, martial arts and drills, dinner at 6:30 p.m., and military classes from 8 p.m. to 9 p.m. Go to bed at ten o'clock. That's what a day in the life of a military school is.

The military academy repeats yesterday's story every day, with no waves, and light clouds. Needless to say, in the eyes of many students, learning theories and practicing martial arts is drudgery. A truly happy life is a romantic life in which "running with the wind and freedom is the direction". It's hard to imagine a person who is rushed by tasks and pressed by rules, and his life is happy. In order to complete one study task after another, the students have to force themselves day after day to let go of their hobbies, their youthful desire for freedom and restlessness. In the same face of task-driven compulsion, some extreme people unfortunately suffer from obsessive-compulsive disorder ,—— mental abnormality, while others rely on their strong will to maintain a normal spirit. When we complain that stress is mentally devastating, we must understand that people's happy lives depend on tasks to complete and create. If everyone has no tasks and is at home on vacation, then who will produce food? Who will make weapons and tea tools? And what will we eat without food? How can we fight against the invading enemy without weapons?

Therefore, it is not that we like to work and study, but the needs of real life force us to work and study. As much as we like freedom, play, leisure, sleep, good food, and good drinks, we still have to do some chore. This is our whole reality, living life.

Many students of the Eagle Military Academy do not understand these truths, so Shuijiashan often does ideological and moral cultivation work for them. As a student, on the one hand, you must learn theories and practice your skills, and on the other hand, you must maintain a balanced mind. If you are mentally unbalanced, it will affect your studies and work. If a student only knows how to enjoy life, but refuses to go through the confusion of studying, the hardships and tiredness of practicing, then he is just a gentleman. Just like the positive and negative sides of a copper plate, a person also has two sides, one is to enjoy life, which is the purpose of life, and the other side is to study and work, which is the only way to achieve the purpose of life. It is pleasure to enjoy life, and we are all happy to enjoy it, but labor and study are painful, and as much as we hate it, we must do it, and we must force ourselves to do it!

Seventeen-year-old Simon Hammer apparently couldn't really understand these big things. In the past, it was very casual and free to practice the offensive and defensive skills of the hammer with his father at home, and sometimes he didn't want to practice it, and his father didn't force him, so he could play happily for two months. At home, he didn't feel pressure at all, because in fact there was no pressure, and his parents never blamed him. It's different at the Eagle Military Academy, where the leaders are strict with their students, and no one can violate the rules and discipline of the school. The mantra of the leaders is "The country has its own laws, the family has its own rules, and the school has its own discipline." "Sometimes Simon Hammer didn't sleep well at night, so he wanted to sleep more in the morning and get up until 8 a.m., but there were some troubles. Because there is a training task for long-distance running in the morning, and there is no breakfast in the kitchen, I have to be physically punished by the head of the school. In winter, it's so warm under the quilt that I don't want to get up. And when you go to training or take a theory class, it's cold. In summer, the weather is hot, and even training in the house, in the woods, is sweaty. So Simon Hammer skipped a lot of classes, and every time he skipped class, he had to be punished. There are always a lot of things in life that can make people skip class, a wonderful juggling, a moving opera, can tie people's hearts and make people abandon their homework and skip class.

Simon Iron Hammer was born in a family of blacksmiths, and his ancestors made iron for a living, and inherited variations from generation to generation, with heredity as the main and mutation as a supplement, so his children and grandchildren are all tall and big, with a macho figure and a black charcoal face. Military schools teach martial arts and military affairs. Martial arts include swordsmanship, fists, kicks, and firearms. Military affairs include arranging troops, making strange plans, and being brave and decisive.

Yesterday I was physically punished by the head of the sect, so today Simon Hammer is homesick. Lying on the grass, looking at the distant sky, he muttered to himself, "How wonderful my hometown is! ”

The source of the Qingxi River, under the Half Moon Mountain, a piece of pastoral, fireworks people. In this beautiful scenery, there is the picturesque home of Ximen Hammer - Half Moon Village. The Simon family has flourished here, and has been passed down from generation to generation for thousands of years, and is the only lord of heaven and earth here. The childhood in memory is happy and warm, interesting and romantic, simple and ordinary. Simon Hammer misses his childhood very much, because childhood does not need to be responsible or responsible. Ignorance and not growing up are extravagant hopes and old dreams that cannot be fulfilled when they become adults. His father made him a small hammer, which he could pick up or put down at will.

There is no military school in Banyue Village, and from the age of eight, Ximen Iron Hammer learned boxing and kicking from his father Ximen Iron Sword, practiced martial arts, and read and wrote. Simon Iron Sword is very gentle to his children, never beating and scolding, and not too restrictive. Therefore, Simon Hammer and his brothers and sisters lived a very happy life, their bodies and minds were well cared for, they were not discriminated against, they were not oppressed, they were not troubled and depressed, they were not anxious and impatient, but they were calm and relaxed, relaxed and satisfied, and let their hearts travel every day. Although the family is relatively poor, poverty does not affect ordinary happiness. The beautiful scenery, the simple folks, the warmth of the family, the strong family affection, the two little playmates, and the carefree life constitute a picture of love overflowing and simple happiness.

Practicing martial arts to strengthen one's body is the ancestral training of the Ximen family, so the children of the Banyue Village all practice martial arts and practice martial arts, dancing with guns and sticks. In addition to practicing martial arts, the children also go to private schools to learn cultural knowledge. There is a private school in Banyue Village, and Mr. Yuan Lixue, who teaches the private school, is over 70 years old, knowledgeable, energetic, and kind. There are 17 children over the age of eight in Banyue Village, and Mr. Yuan teaches them to read and write, and often takes them to get in touch with nature.
