Chapter IV

The sea finally left the distant Xinjiang and came to Lin's side. This is a compromise from the father to the sea, but also to the mother, and the elderly father has learned to compromise with life. In other words, my father no longer uses the bean bag as dry food. Because in my father's subconscious, I never thought that Hai, the "seedling", would become a qualified soldier. In the end, his father agreed to transfer Hai to Lin's troops, completely leaving the last vestiges of illusion for himself, and he hoped that Lin could clean up Hai as a person.

Lin took out the set of methods that his father had to clean up his back then, and he wanted to use this method to clean up the sea. When Lin and Hai first met, they didn't show brotherhood, but completely businesslike. The sea stood in front of him, and he sits.

Lin said coldly: Xinjiang makes you unbearable?

Hai didn't speak, he lowered his head, and at this moment his leg injury was already healed.

Lin said again: You are a deserter, do you know it?

Hai spoke this time, and when he spoke, his mouth was full of literati. He said: I am lonely, and in that place I am depressed.

Lin also said: Others are not lonely or depressed? What's wrong with you? You're a soldier, you're a man. Man, you know?!

The sea stalked his neck, looked not at the forest but at the map behind the forest and said: Others are others, I am me.

At that moment, Hai had a strong sense that it was not Lin who was sitting in front of him at this time, but his father. Lin's attitude at this time, as well as the tone of his voice, is too much like his father, or it is a copy of his father. At that moment, the sea had no illusions about his current situation. He thought: I am leaving the wolf's den and entering the tiger's den, and he feels that he has no future.

In order to cut off Hai's illusions, Lin didn't even let Hai arrive home for a meal. He thinks that if he sees Hai as his younger brother, it will be difficult for Hai to do his job in the future. Lin wants to complete the task assigned to him by his father and turn Hai into a qualified soldier, so Lin can only harden his heart and put it into action.

Lin arranged Haihai to the guard company, which he thought was the best place to train a soldier. For this reason, Lin also quarreled with his sister-in-law. My sister-in-law is a virtuous woman and a kind person at the same time. According to what she meant, the sea has come here, and she must express the affection of her relatives. Come to the house for a meal and recognize the door. Then, on the weekends, from time to time, let the sea come over, eat, talk about homely things or something. According to my sister-in-law's wishes, I don't need to wash my own clothes, I can bring them to my home anytime and anywhere, and my sister-in-law will wash them on my behalf.

Lin quickly shattered his sister-in-law's illusions, not only did he not let Hai come to the house, but his sister-in-law proposed to go to the guard to see Hai, but Lin did not agree. His nephew, Shi Xiaolin, is already in elementary school, and he shouted to see his uncle, but he was also scolded by Lin loudly. The sister-in-law was sad and sad, and after a quarrel with Lin, she hid aside and wiped her tears. Lin has made up his mind that he will complete the glorious mission given to him by his father, because he knows his father too well.

All of Lin's assumptions are contrary to the facts. Hai did not cherish the opportunity in front of him, and when he entered the big family of the army, he realized that he was not a member of this family. In the past, he could not be said to be a stranger to the army, but it should be said that he was very familiar, born in the army and grew up in the army. He thought he would soon be able to adapt to life in the company. As a result, Hai realizes that he is thinking wrong. First of all, what he can't adapt to is the step-by-step schedule of the troops, going to bed early and getting up early, and in the middle of the night, there is still a shift waiting for him. This caused a lot of inconvenience to the sea. He wants to be a writer, and to be a writer is to read and write, and the time schedule of the army is full, and the time for himself is pitiful. Hai can only hide under the covers with a flashlight after the lights go out, reading books and writing poems. This greatly affected Hai's enthusiasm, and sometimes, as soon as he fell asleep, the shift leader told him to get up and take over the post. He stood helplessly on the sentry post, only then did he realize that he was sleepy to death. Behind him was the watchtower, with a door, a table, and a telephone. At this time, it was night, and the surroundings were quiet, and at that time the sea thought, this guard is purely superfluous, there is no enemy, and the saboteurs will not dare to destroy it even if they lend him a gut. Since nothing will happen, what is the use of standing guard, it is entirely the ears of the deaf - ornaments. After thinking about it like this, Hai decided that there was really no need to stand guard, and he turned and went into the watchtower, which was much more comfortable than the sentry post. Hai sat down in a chair, stood the gun beside him, and after a while, he fell asleep. He slept soundly and snored. At some point, the sea woke up. He didn't know where he was for a while, but after a while he finally figured out what he was doing, got up and touched the gun, and found that it was gone. He was a little flustered, pushed open the door of the watchtower, and found a person standing on the sentry post, and when he got closer, he found Lin standing there. He didn't know why Lin was standing guard for him.

He said, "Commander, what are you doing here?"

Ever since Lin was cold to him and businesslike, he had always called Lin the division commander, whether in public or in private, and he felt that it was more relieving to call him so.

Lin stood at the sentry post, like a real soldier.

The sea called Lin that, Lin didn't say a word, walked down from the sentry post, put the gun into Hai's arms, and said in a low and stern voice: You stand on the sentry post for me.

Hai was stunned for a moment, and finally stood honestly on the sentry post.

Lin said: If this is a war, if you leave your post without permission, I will shoot you down.

Hai didn't speak, he felt that Lin was in the whole scene, and he was on the line in Shanggang, and this set was learned from his father Shi Guangrong. Shi Guangrong often has such a whole scene at home, and he doesn't say anything about it, thinking to himself, I just ignore you.

Lin said: Punish you for standing all night, and I will accompany you.

Lin really did what he said, he stood on the sentry post across the sea, and stood meticulously.

The soldiers who took over the guard came, and they didn't know what was happening here, and they glanced at the division commander and then at the sea. Lin ordered: You go back and tell the person who took over the post that tonight, Shi Hai will stand until dawn.

The soldier didn't dare to ask more, so he ran back and conveyed the order of the division commander.

At night, only the sea and the forest looked at each other.

Hai said: You are the whole scene, making a big fuss.

Lin said: When you become a real soldier, you will understand the importance of the sentry post.

The sea said again: You are the glory of the stone in the rectification of me.

Lin didn't say anything, and stared fiercely at the sea in the dark, and the sea didn't even want to call his father anymore but called his father's name. Hai also said: Rectify it, I'm not afraid, the more ruthless the better, as long as you don't kill me...... Hum!

In the last sentence, the sea also raised the tone.

At that moment, Lin Zhen wanted to step down from the sentry post and slap the sea, but in the end he held back.

After that night of confrontation between the brothers, Hai was still a little scared, he was afraid of the look in Lin's eyes when he looked at him. Since then, Hai has not dared to miss his post again, but he is by no means a qualified soldier.

After Hai served as a soldier for a year, Lin Wei posted a cram school for the soldier college entrance examination, Lin hoped that Hai could be admitted to the military academy, if that was the case, Hai would become an officer, and there would be a reason to work in the army for a long time, which could be regarded as fulfilling his father's long-cherished wish. Lin thought so wishfully.

Hai also accepted the fact of cram school, because the army had a rule that all soldiers who attended cram school had two hours a day at their disposal to review cultural lessons. It can be said that during the two months of cram school, Hai did not review cultural classes for a day, and he spent those two hours reading novels and writing poems. Then one by one, he sent the poems he wrote to newspapers and magazines all over the country.

The sea also went to the exam, and it is conceivable that the sea will not answer the questions seriously. He sat there, filled the margins of the scroll with poems, and respectfully handed it in again. The officer who invigilated the examination looked at the sea with puzzled eyes, and the sea did not care, and he walked out of the examination room with a whistle and swagger, attracting the sideways glances of everyone.

This matter was still known to Lin. Lin called Hai to a place where there was no one, and slapped Hai twice without saying anything. Hai was stunned, he didn't expect Lin to hit him. After a while, he came to his senses, covered his hot face and said: You, how do you beat people!

Lin said: I beat you today, first of all, I am not as a division commander, nor as a brother, I am beating you in the name of my father.

Hai said: You will kill me!

Lin really lost faith in the sea. He was really angry, pointed to the sea and said: I, I, how can I have such a brother as you!

Lin actually stammered, and left after speaking.

Hai suddenly shouted at Lin's back: I don't have a brother like you!

After shouting, he covered his face and cried.

For this matter, Lin made a phone call to his father and informed him of the current situation of the sea. After listening to Lin's report, my father was silent for a long time, and at that moment, my father's last illusion about the sea was shattered. He said to Lin on the other end of the phone: Everyone has their own ambitions, and your heart is exhausted. I don't blame you, let him go.

Hai Ping was a soldier for three years, and after three years of service, he was demobilized.

Before demobilization, my sister-in-law took Shi Xiaolin to find Hai, and said that she wanted Hai to go to the house for a meal before leaving. The sea doesn't want to see Lin, he can't live or die. In the end, the sister-in-law compromised and agreed to see off Hai in a restaurant outside, and Hai agreed.

During the meal, the sensible sister-in-law did not Tilin, and after the meal, the sister-in-law finally couldn't help crying.

Hai said lightly: What are you crying about, I won't have a brother in the future, but I still have a sister-in-law.

Shi Xiaolin saw that his mother was crying, and he also held Hai's hand, and his uncle called out briefly.

Hai finally raised his head and said to his sister-in-law tragically: I will be demobilized tomorrow, and I don't want to live at home after I go back, I want to support myself, do a good job, and show Shi Guangrong.

The sister-in-law looked at the sea for a long time before saying: You and Lin Zhen were raised by the same father, why are they so stubborn!

The sea returned to the city he had left from. Sure enough, he didn't come home. The work was arranged in the Agency for Cultural Affairs, and he did not want to sit in the office, so he asked to come to a literary journal under the Agency for Cultural Affairs to become an editor. It's to clean up, help dismantle the manuscript, reply to the author or something.

Hai works in the editorial office during the day and lives in the editorial office at night with the folding bed open. Fortunately, the people in the editorial department leave work early, and the entire editorial department is the world of the sea. He read and wrote poems, and tossed until midnight and no one cared about him. According to his own words: Living to this point, he is finally free.
