Chapter Eighty-Five: The Night Wind Rises
In the tent, a middle-aged man with a slightly well-made figure was sitting cross-legged on a couch, and a copper oil lamp was placed in the corner of the couch, about three feet long.
Wang Qiang half-knelt on the ground and arched his hand: "Uncle." ”
Only then did the middle-aged man raise his eyes from the book and said lightly: "Who is your uncle?" ”
Before Wang Qiang could answer, the middle-aged man said to himself: "You must always remember that in this barracks, there are no uncles or nephews, only comrades, do you understand?" ”
Wang Qiang felt inexplicable, so he had to follow his words and answer: "Yes, uncle, no, what the general said." ”
"Hmm." Wei Yuan nodded slightly, glanced at him again, and asked, "Why did you come to me?" ”
"General Hui, it's like this, there is an ancestral jade pendant under his subordinates......"
This Wang Qiang distorted the facts and fabricated it wantonly.
"General, that jade pendant is very transparent, verdant, it is really rare, it can be said to be priceless! If you are seized in vain, your subordinates will die, and you will not be able to see it, general, please be the master of the little one! ”
When Wei Yuan heard the words "priceless", he raised his head from the book and looked at Wang Qiang: "Xiaoqiang, if it is really as you said, that jade pendant ......"
"Yes, the little one will never tell a lie, that jade pendant is really my family's ancestral, it was left to my mother by my father before he died, and it was passed on to me after my mother died." Wang Qiang squeezed out two lines of tears, and his voice was sad.
Although Wei Yuan had never heard of any ancestral treasures in his family, the four words of priceless had already made his mouth dry, and he no longer had the heart to study books.
"Who is so bold as to rob my nephew of his ancestral heirlooms?" Wei Yuan immediately stood up from the couch and asked angrily.
When Wang Qiang heard that this was to make his own decisions, he was immediately overjoyed and said Chen Daniu and Han Xiaoxi.
Wei Yuan's eyes flashed: "You mean, that Chen Da Niu is an authentic crop man, and Han Xiaoxi knows some kung fu?" ”
"That's right, then Han Xiaoxi bullied me with kung fu, and Chen Daniu threatened to kill me!"
"What? Kill you? Wei Yuan was shocked and angry, Wang Qiang was his nephew, and that little commoner Chen Daniu dared to threaten to kill his nephew, he was really bold, and there was no one in his eyes!
"I'm mad at me! Little Chen Da Niu is just an ant in my eyes, how can he say so much about killing my nephew? Xiaoqiang, you take someone to bring that Chen Da Niu to General Ben! ”
"Uncle, don't, your fanfare is really not good, it will damage your image of caring for your subordinates, I don't think we can be too anxious, we have to plan slowly......"
Wei Yuan had to suppress his anger, and suddenly smiled: "Xiaoqiang, my uncle really didn't see the wrong person, you are a good seedling, and when you make war achievements in the future, my uncle will definitely cultivate and promote you!" ”
Wang Qiang was overjoyed: "Thank you, General!" ”
"Hey, what are you doing like this, I'm your uncle, you're my nephew, you should call me whatever you want when there are no outsiders in the future, don't be so restrained."
Wang Qiang's hands trembled with excitement: "Yes, uncle." ”
.......
At the beginning of August, the sun was blazing.
These days, it seems that because of the sudden increase in the strength of the northern country outside the border, Feng Yu ordered all the soldiers to increase their training tasks, and even the nightlife was canceled, and they were woken up before dawn every day, and they practiced until the sun completely went down, and they could get a moment of rest, and then wait in line for dinner, and then they were tired into a puddle of mud, and no one could call it.
The task was too heavy, and Han Xiaoxi's whole person lost weight.
Occasionally looking at the scorching sun above her head that almost evaporated, Han Xiaoxi felt dizzy, she really didn't have much strength today, such weather, such drills, had lasted for three days, and in these three days, several soldiers couldn't bear it and fell down, and they were all carried down for treatment.
Today, it's your turn, Han Xiaoxi had such a thought in his heart.
He knew his physical condition very well, and he really couldn't hold on, he felt dizzy, tired, and the whole figure fell into the big water tank.
At some point, I suddenly lost consciousness completely in my mind......
Before this, he seemed to hear a shout from Chen Daniu beside him.
"Konishi!"
......
After waking up, Han Xiaoxi found himself lying in the forest, surrounded by several comrades who had fainted from heat stroke like him.
The forest in the hot summer is exceptionally cool, with a light breeze blowing, very comfortable, better than wearing thick and heavy hard armor on the school field, waving and waving heavy weapons I don't know how many times, with a sense of comfort, there is also a sense of fatigue, Han Xiaoxi can't wait to fall down and sleep for three days and three nights, but, since he woke up, it means that his body is fine, he still chose to stand up, but when he got up, there was a violent dizziness that hit him, making him almost faint again.
His body was covered with sweat, and the summer shirt in the armor was wet and sticking to his body extremely uncomfortable, he thought about it, and suddenly went deeper.
When he came back, he was a lot more energetic, and he changed his clothes from top to bottom, only he knew that every night, while everyone was asleep, he went to the mountain spring to take a bath, and by the way, he washed the dirty clothes he had changed, and hung them on the trunk of the tree by the river, and then went to take a bath the next day, and then he could change it directly, which could also be regarded as his secret base.
The sun set quietly, and no one greeted anyone before leaving.
When Han Xiaoxi came back, he was in line for dinner.
Tonight, a cool breeze suddenly rose.
Han Xiaoxi couldn't fall asleep tossing and turning, quietly listening to the snoring in the tent and the howling of the wind outside the tent, thinking that it should be raining heavily in this weather...... I simply went out to cool off, looked at the sky at random, and found that the stars were sinking and the moon was hidden, large areas of dark clouds were rolling in the sky, the cold wind was one after another, and the mountains and forests not far away were swaying, and the forest sea seemed to be boiling, if the wind was stronger, Han Xiaoxi had no doubt that these big trees would be uprooted.
"Ah, this wind is so cool......"
Han Xiaoxi couldn't help but stretch out his arms and brace into the wind, and the feeling of exhilaration, made him imagine that he was swimming on the clouds.
In the thick of the night, the distant mountains suddenly lit up with firelight all over the mountains, and the firelight drifted with the wind, faintly emerging under the forest sea, getting closer and closer.
At this moment, a thunderbolt suddenly jumped down from the sky and between the clouds, and the silver light split, swayed, and fell to the earth, and the forest sea in the distance was illuminated for a moment.
Figures with torches are coming towards them!
The sea of people, hidden under the sea of forests.
It was the army of the North.
