Chapter 25: The Horse Army
Remember [Lewen] in a second. Alas, for you to read wonderfully.
"Oh?" Lantern Xiao was also slightly stunned, "It turned out to be just a paper tiger!" Now the Lantern Festival also came to the momentum, and he checked the sushi knife in his hand, "Let's go!" Chase, see what the hell he is! ”
Lantern Xiao and I carefully searched and advanced in the woods, I concentrated and listened carefully to the movement in front, although the wind blowing through the woods would produce a lot of disturbing sounds, but it may be that guy was a little frightened because of our sudden reluctance, so I could hear that his pace was chaotic, not like just now, he was able to use the surrounding sounds to hide his movements.
This discovery made me feel more at ease, and the fear in my heart just now had been swept away, because I knew that it was his turn to be afraid!
Due to the guy's panic, his whereabouts were even more obvious, and we followed him closely without letting up.
Suddenly, I saw the shadow in front of me, as if I had tripped over something, and fell to the ground with a thud. Lantern Xiao and I were overjoyed at first sight and pounced as fast as we could.
The Lantern Festival jumped high, and a Mount Tai pressed on the top, pressing heavily on the body of the black shadow, and then the black shadow actually made an "oops" sound, it was really a person!
This black shadow has a lot of strength and struggles desperately, but the Lantern Festival is also strong, plus we are two people, and soon the black shadow is firmly held down by us and cannot move.
Lantern Xiao held the flashlight in his mouth, and the dazzling light lit up, making the person close his eyes immediately, and I realized that the person on the ground looked thin, about forty years old, wearing a shabby camouflage uniform.
Lantern Xiao asked loudly, "Who are you?" Why follow us? ”
This person looked extremely panicked, closed his eyes, and kept shaking his head, "Let go of me!" Let me go! He trembled a little all over his body and had a strange expression on his face.
Lantern Xiao pressed his arm with one hand and grabbed his collar with the other, "You don't have garlic!" Say it! Why follow us! ”
The man didn't seem to react to our words, just kept saying the phrase in his mouth, "Let go of me!" Let me go! ”
I also raised my flashlight, learned the actions of the confession in the movie, and shone it directly into the eyes of this person, "It's useless to pretend to be crazy, who asked you to come?" ”
Who knows, this person opened his eyes and looked at me, and actually smiled, this laughter was very strange, hoarse with a hint of sharpness, almost exactly the same as the laughter I heard in the woods just now, it seems that the strange laughter in the woods just now came from this person's mouth.
This person's performance at this time made me and Lantern Xiao look at each other, "Could it be that he is really a madman?" "Looks likely!"
Looking at this crazy person on the ground, Lantern Xiao and I had no idea for a while.
I looked at the Lantern Festival, "What should I do?" ”
Lantern Xiao thought for a moment, "Since he is following us, there must be his reasons, and we think we should still ask clearly."
I was a little embarrassed, "In this case, how do you ask?" ”
Lantern Xiao thought about it for a while, and suddenly smiled slightly, reached out and took out a ham sausage from the bag, tore the package with his mouth, and shook it in front of this person. I have to admit that this ham sausage with various flavors and preservatives added, although it is not healthy, but the taste is really tempting.
Sure enough, the eyes of the people on the ground opened immediately when they smelled the scent, and there was a beastly greedy expression in their eyes, and I was startled by this look. But when he looked at the ham sausage in Lantern Xiao's hand, that look instantly turned into longing.
Lantern Xiao held the ham sausage and said, "Do you want to eat it?" ”
This person immediately nodded busily, and seeing his reaction, Lantern Xiao looked at me slightly proudly. I can't help but feel funny, Lantern Festival's ham sausage tactics have really worked repeatedly. When we were in Qilian Mountain, the Lantern Festival used ham sausages to attract snow leopards, so that we could follow the footprints it left and escape from the bronze coffin array. I didn't expect this kid to do this again this time, and it worked again, it's really a foodie's own trick.
Lantern Xiao smiled wickedly, "If you want to eat, be obedient and obedient, tell me who you are?" What is your name? ”
The people on the ground tried hard to raise their hands to grab it, but our hands were held down hard, and they couldn't break free even after several attempts, so they raised their necks and said eagerly: "I, my name, my name is Ma Jun!" ”
"Ma Jun?" Lantern Xiao looked at me, "Who is Ma Jun?" Do you know each other? ”
I was stunned, this name is so familiar, I must have heard it somewhere! But I didn't know the person in front of me at all, I frowned, and recalled carefully, Ma Jun? Ma!
Suddenly, I remembered this name, before I went to Qilian Mountain, at that time, I knew that the second uncle often dispensed medicine to a demobilized soldier named Ma Jun, and once told me a strange encounter about the Ma Army's engineer company back then, I thought he would make up a story for me again, but I didn't expect to see a person named Ma Jun now.
Could it be that you have recognized the wrong person? It's just a coincidence that they have the same name and surname, and there should be quite a lot of people with the name Ma Jun. I then asked, "Your name is Ma Jun, and you used to be a soldier?" ”
As soon as my words fell, Ma Jun immediately seemed to hear the order, his expression immediately became serious, and his eyes also glowed, and at the same time, he straightened his head, straightened his neck, and said loudly: "Ma Jun, a soldier of the third company and the fifth squad of the engineering corps of the Northwest XXX Military Region, came to report!" ”
Every word of Ma Jun's words exploded in my brain like thunder, and it turned out that the incident that the second uncle told me was true! There really is such a person, there is such a thing!
Wait a minute! When I mentioned the soldiers and the camp, I remembered what happened in Qilian Mountain, and I also thought of Uncle Kong. If the time and place of the incident that the second uncle told me were not wrong, I suddenly had a feeling that Ma Jun's experience back then seemed to be very consistent with Uncle Kong's experience back then, could it be that they actually experienced the same thing!
At this time, I was already stunned by the thoughts in my head, and after a flash of effort, I pressed Ma Jun's hand and relaxed a little, Ma Jun seized this opportunity, immediately broke free, snatched the ham sausage in Lantern Xiao's hand, squatted on the ground and ate it in a big gulp.
Lantern Xiao looked at me in a daze, "Zhuo Ran, what's wrong with you?" Could it be that you really know this Ma Jun? ”
I nodded, but then shook my head again, Lantern Xiao looked confused, "Nod or shake your head?" Do you know him? ”
I took a deep breath, "It's the first time I've seen this guy, but I've heard my second uncle talk about him and why he's crazy. ”
"Oh?" Lantern Xiao was also a little surprised, "There is still such a situation, what is going on?" ”
Next, I repeated the incident that my second uncle told me about the Lantern Festival.
