The tranquility of the mountains and forests seems to be able to cleanse people's hearts. Even in such a humble cabin, the conditions do not feel so difficult.

All the pace of life has slowed down. In places where there is no mobile phone signal, there will be no complex and huge information on the Internet to interfere with the mind, but it is much more comfortable.

Zhao Ruozhi sat on the threshold, holding his chin with both hands, looking at the two big men who were chopping wood and boiling water in front of the door, and felt that life was not bad if it was so plain.

Zhou Yi's forehead was already dripping with beads of sweat, he wiped the sweat with his sleeve, turned his head and asked Zhao Ruozhi: "Are you tired?" Would you like to go in and take a break? ”

"I'm not so weak that I can't take care of myself, so I came out to breathe, and I was told to go back to lie down."

Ever since Zhao Ruozhi came back from the four-dimensional space, he had felt the side effects of borrowing abilities. Every day, the limbs were weak and groggy, and this state lasted for three days. On the fourth day, I regained a little strength before I was able to get out of bed and walk around.

Zhou Yi and Su Xiaoyu only thought that this was just the sequelae caused by the high fever after being shot, but they didn't know that these side effects were completely caused by borrowing the ability of the "female spy".

Zhao Ruozhi borrowed a saying from martial arts, which is similar to the "backlash" of practicing evil martial arts.

"How long are we going to stay in the mountains?" Zhao Ruozhi asked.

"Let's wait a few days." Su Xiaoyu didn't stop chopping firewood in his hands, he seemed to have endless firewood. "I had already sent a message to my partner before I went into the mountains, and it was probably a few days before he arrived. You have a good rest, we won't leave until we recover well. ”

"As long as I don't delay you."

"How can you say that? You are hurt because of us, and you can't let us suffer anymore because of our business. ”

"You've all been taking care of me for so long, don't take it personally."

Su Xiaoyu stretched his face and went to the back of the house with the chopped firewood.

Zhao Ruozhi didn't know why: "What's wrong with him?" Why do you look so unhappy? ”

Zhou Yi shrugged: "Maybe I feel that I am protected by a woman, and I am very upset about not going, right?" ”

"What's this? I didn't bother with him, but he played a child's temper first. ”

"Who do you say is playing with children's tempers?" Su Xiaoyu walked from the back of the house with a black face, and there were a lot of weed seeds on his trouser legs.

Zhao Ruozhi saw that the weed seeds were standing on his trouser leg very unpleasantly, so he reached out to pick them.

Su Xiaoyu held Zhao Ruozhi's hand and said, "Be careful of pricking your hands." ”

"I'm not a spindle girl, and I won't fall asleep if I get pricked by a seed." Zhao Ruozhi felt a little funny.

Su Xiaoyu looked at Zhao Ruozhi's soft lips and looked away unnaturally.

Zhou Yi stepped forward and took Zhao Ruozhi's hand, the surrounding breath was filled with a sour smell, and he said: "If you are idle, go out for a walk and change your mood." ”

"Okay." Zhao Ruozhi was held by Zhou Yi and followed him into the woods in front of the house.

Su Xiaoyu was the only one standing at the door, staring at the place where the thin woman's back disappeared in a daze, forgetting what he was going to do for a while.

It wasn't until a dark-skinned man with dark brown hair and brown eyes came out of the bushes that Su Xiaoyu came back to his senses.

"Geng Ran, you're here." Su Xiaoyu stepped forward and patted Geng Ran's shoulder, obviously feeling that his muscles were much stronger again.

"Who were the two people in the woods just now?"

Geng Ran is a person who does not smile, and when he saw Su Xiaoyu, he nodded lightly. He took off his coat, and the green dragon tattooed on his strong arms clinged to his muscles, appearing lifelike under the movement of the muscles, as if he was walking on his arms.

"Friends."

"Haven't seen it before." Geng Ran glanced a few more times in the direction of Zhao Ruozhi and Zhou Yi.

Geng Ran is Su Xiaoyu's friend of life and death in the army, and although he has kept in touch since he retired, the two don't know much about each other's social relationships. It is normal that Geng Ran has not seen Zhou Yi and Zhao Ruozhi, and Su Xiaoyu will not mention Zhou Yi to Geng Ran for no reason.

"We used to see few people in the army, but we met them after we came out."

"Have you checked the details?"

"You don't have to worry about this, if it weren't for them, I wouldn't have been able to escape." Su Xiaoyu took Geng Ran into the cabin and beckoned him to rest for a while.

Geng Ran looked around, the house was still the same as it was a few years ago, and the daily necessities that should have been there were still complete. He sighed, "I didn't expect this room to come in handy." ”

"Thanks to this, otherwise I wouldn't have had anywhere to go for a while."

"Do you have any plans for the next step?"

"Let's hide for a while, we can't do anything for the time being."

Geng Ran narrowed his eyes and looked at the man in front of him. When I saw him on the news a few days ago, I was taken aback, and for the sake of a woman, I regarded money as dung, and spent tens of millions of dollars to shoot a bunch of ugly wires.

No wonder I felt that the woman who walked out of the house just now was a little familiar, and it seemed that she was the one Su Xiaoyu wanted to take.

"Didn't you make such a big move before just to get your uncle's attention?"

Su Xiaoyu said helplessly: "I didn't expect them to be so ruthless, it seems that my grandfather's situation is not very good." ”

"Uncle can't handle it, but the woman seems to have done it." Geng Ran looked at Su Xiaoyu playfully.

"It's not so easy for women to handle." Su Xiaoyu looked frustrated, "It's a little difficult to snatch a woman from a friend." ”

"What? Are there any women you can't play with? ”

"Let's not talk about that." Su Xiaoyu dragged out a black box from under the bed, and the box was full of guns and ammunition, "These things can finally see the light of day." ”

Geng Ran carefully wiped the gun, these cold instruments were warm and heartbeat to him. The friends who have been separated for many years finally see each other today, and the joy in my heart is hard to hide.

Su Xiaoyu stood quietly aside, watching Geng Rani carefully wipe the gun in his hand, and memories gradually came to mind.

At that time, they were all young men who had just come of age, young and vigorous.

Geng Ran was born in an ordinary immigrant family, and he was a child struggling on the edge of the food and clothing line since he was a child, so how could he have access to any good things. Came the troops, full of curiosity about everything.

Military supplies have always been the highest equipment, from training to all aspects of life, and the items used are too good for the children of poor families.

For Su Xiaoyu, who has been pampered since childhood, the configurations in the barracks are all low-end goods. Neither the costumes nor the issued pistols and sabers are the latest or the best.

The two people who lived in the same dormitory often had disputes because of different concepts at the beginning, and they fought and criticized.

At that time, Geng Ran said to Su Xiaoyu that every gun and every saber was a living forehead and a friend.

Su Xiaoyu only felt that this person was unreasonable, his family was a munitions producer, and there were as many guns and ammunition as he wanted, and there were all kinds of new weapons. It is no longer the time of centuries ago, during the War of Independence, when houses were scarce, and people who thought this way were outliers.

Geng Ran, who heard this, raised his fist and punched Su Xiaoyu in the face without saying a word. He said that in a critical situation, your life is given by them, and they are friends.

The two scuffled together and did not stop until they were exhausted.

They lay on the floor of the dormitory, panting, but their hearts were extremely happy. The so-called don't fight and don't know each other, Geng Ran's theory persuaded Su Xiaoyu, and Su Xiaoyu no longer laughed at Geng Ran for being a dirt bun.

Different skin tones, different blood flowing under the skin, different beliefs. But they know that they can give their backs to each other no matter what the situation.

Friendships between men are so easy to build.

As it turned out, they didn't misunderstand each other.

Su Xiaoyu poured Geng Ran a glass of water: "What have you been busy with in the past few years?" ”

"It's easy to provide security services to some people with heads and faces." Geng Ran asked Su Xiaoyu: "What about you?" ”

"I'm a rich second generation, what else can I do except take the money and squander it?"

"Don't lie to me, if you don't want to do something, your uncles won't be in such a hurry to get rid of you."

"Isn't it just that they spent a little more money, they have a ghost in their hearts."

"For women?"

"I'm not the superficial kind of person."

Geng Ran's eyes were deep, and he stared at Su Xiaoyu tightly: "I don't think it's that simple, in this place, you won't bring a woman over casually." ”

"I owe her my life."

Geng Ran shook his head, looking incredulous: "Looking at her sick and crooked appearance, how could she still save your life?" ”

Su Xiaoyu briefly told Geng Ran what happened, Geng Ran was only silent for a while, and then said: "I have seen a lot of strange things outside in the past few years. There is a person who calls the organization of X, which has been relatively active in society in recent years. Recently, they have been working on Alien Humans, saying that the finished product can break through the physical limits that humans can't break through. They have no mind of their own and are completely subordinate to humans. “

"What does that have to do with what I'm talking about?"

"Judging from your description, that woman's performance is inconsistent before and after, will she ......"

Before Geng Ran finished speaking, he was interrupted by Su Xiaoyu: "Don't talk nonsense about unfounded things." ”

"I kindly remind you, don't put a head on women."

"No, don't worry." Su Xiaoyu felt a panic in his chest, and his mind was a mess, so he left the hut and wandered alone in the woods.

Zhou Yi and Zhao Ruozhi walked back to the wooden house from the woods, but they didn't see Su Xiaoyu's figure, only a dark-skinned man with flower arms wiping his guns in the wooden house.

Zhou subconsciously protected Zhao Ruozhi behind him.

"I'm back." Geng Ran didn't raise his head, looking like the owner of a wooden house.

"Are you Su Xiaoyu's partner?" Zhou Yi asked the people in the house.

"Is that how he introduced me to you?"

Geng Ran said, then put the wiped rifle in his hand on his shoulder and faced the person outside the door.
