Chapter 1407: Frontline Expedited
With the breath slowly exhaled, the palm placed on the armrest of the seat suddenly clenched!
Green tendons burst out from Zuo Qing's arms, spreading to his chest, neck, and cheeks...... His muscles tensed, his brows furrowed together, endless pain welling up from the depths of his soul, and his face lying on his back in his seat was painful and hideous.
Beads of sweat the size of beans slid down his cheeks, gradually smudging a stain on the old floor. Even so, Zuo Qing still gritted his teeth, and did not make any sound, only the sound of rapid and heavy breathing echoed in the office.
In the cubicle behind the office, Jiang Ziya, who was about to land on the chessboard, suddenly hovered his fingertips in mid-air.
Jiang Ziya let out a long sigh.
He pinched the chess pieces with his fingertips and steadily landed them somewhere on the chessboard, at this moment the black and white pieces were already entrenched and staggered on the chessboard, each accounting for half of the country.
Minutes and seconds passed, and after about half an hour, the heavy breathing finally stabilized.
Zuo Qing lay on the chair like mud, his face was pale, and his expression was indescribably tired, he rested in the chair for a few minutes, and then reached out tremblingly and held the teacup in the corner of the table in the palm of his hand.
He took a deep breath as he handed the teacup to his chapped mouth, only to find that the cup had long since dried up, and only a few tea leaves were left dry at the bottom of the cup.
He sighed helplessly, and was about to get up, when a figure slowly walked to his side.
Jiang Ziya carried a steaming teapot and passed the cup through his left green palm, and the hot water rushed on the tea leaves at the bottom of the cup, emitting a refreshing fragrance.
"Thank you." Zuo Qing smiled bitterly.
Jiang Ziya handed the water cup to Zuo Qing with a somewhat complicated expression:
"If the gods of the court have returned today, and Great Xia has us to guard it, why do you torture yourself like this......"
"It's different, Taigong." Zuo Qing took a sip of tea, shook his head and said, "It is naturally a great thing to have the Great Xia God to protect Great Xia, but if all the hopes are pinned on you, then how is we humans different from captive livestock?"
Commander Ye Fan said that manpower can also win the sky, without his cultivation and efforts, there would not be so many human ceilings in Great Xia now, and there would not be Zhou Ping...... If even I, the commander-in-chief, began to slack off and laze because of the return of the Great Xia God, it would be regarded as destroying the foundation that the Night's Watch had saved for a hundred years. ”
Jiang Ziya stroked his slender beard, and looked at Zuo Qing with admiration in his eyes.
"It's a pity, when I return, Ye Fan has already sacrificed, otherwise the old man would really want to meet him."
Just as the two were talking, there was a sharp knock on the door.
Zuo Qing wiped the sweat off his face with paper, tidied up his haggard face, and then spoke:
"Enter."
The office door opened, and a night watchman rushed in with a report in hand.
"Commander Zuo, urgent report from the front!"
Hearing the words "urgent on the front line", Zuo Qing's face changed, and he quickly took the report and read it carefully.
"Temple of Heaven?!"
His pupils contracted suddenly!!
……
Island.
"I don't know what kind of moth Brother Gun is going to do in today's 'Xinguan' training."
Everyone walked out of the medicinal bath and got dressed, Cao Yuan shrugged his shoulders and said.
"Moths? I think it's funny. Baili Chubby raised his eyebrows and said.
"It's interesting, but we've been playing like this for more than half a month." Cao Yuan's expression was a little strange, "I don't know what I'm doing at any other time except for being beaten every day...... It's okay for a day or two, but after a long time, I always feel empty in my heart. ”
"Actually, I feel that way, too." An Qingyu nodded.
Lin Qiye opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but finally sighed helplessly.
Although he also felt that most of the time passed in the past half a month was a bit ridiculous, after all, this was the training arranged for them by the commander-in-chief of the Night's Watch, and as the leader of the [Nightfall] team, it was always not good for him to take the lead in guiding the rhythm.
Just as a few people were chatting, Li Kengqiang's figure walked out of the deep forest in a hurry.
"How's it going, little ones, are you resting?" Li Kengqiang pulled the toad mirror down, his eyes swept over everyone one by one, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
“…… It's time to rest. ”
"Just rest well, today's training content is a bit strenuous."
Hearing this, a glimmer of light appeared in everyone's eyes, could it be that after more than half a month of playing, could it finally have a normal "heart off" training?
In the expectant eyes of everyone, Li Kengqiang took out a few swimsuits with his backhand, stuffed them into the arms of Lin Qiye and others one by one, and then solemnly announced:
"Today's training is called the 'All Dog Planing Swimming Competition'!"
All:......
"The rules of the competition are as follows: everyone puts on a bathing suit and starts the competition with a dog-planed swim from the beach without using any forbidden ruins, and whoever swims the closest within the allotted time wins!" Li Keng opened excitedly,
"How? Isn't it fun to train this time?! ”
“…… Brother Gun, can we do something serious? The corners of Cao Yuan's mouth twitched wildly, and after a while, he couldn't help but speak.
"Business? That's what you're doing! Li Kengqiang raised his eyebrows, turned around and walked in the direction of the coastline, "Hurry up, whoever arrives slowest in a while, let him swim in the sea for two more laps." ”
“……”
In a helpless sigh, everyone reluctantly walked to the beach of the island, changed into swimsuits, and plunged into the water in the sound of Li Kson's passionate whistle.
"Seven Nights, why do you say the commanders are doing this? I always feel that something is wrong......" Cao Yuan said with a frown.
"Something is really wrong." Lin Qiye looked back at Li Kengqiang on the shore, and still said truthfully, "Even if this outrageous training is the product of Brother Gun's extreme boredom, then Commander Nie Jinshan, or even General Huo Quzhi at the bottom of the island, they won't be so boring, right?"
They know that we are doing such outrageous things every day, so why didn't anyone intervene to stop them? ”
"yes...... Chubby, what do you think? ”
“…… Fat? ”
Everyone looked back and found that Baili's chubby figure had disappeared, leaving only gurgling bubbles tumbling up from under the sea.
Lin Qiye was stunned for a moment, plunged headlong into the seawater, and scooped up the sinking Baili Chubby, who put it on Lin Qiye's shoulder and coughed violently.
"Grandma's...... Master, the worst thing I'm good at is swimming. ”
"Let's just symbolically swim two laps and go back."
"Okay." Baili Chubby nodded, and was about to say something more, when he saw the sea in the distance, he was slightly stunned, "Someone is coming?" ”
"People? Who? ”
"Another enemy attack?!"
In the vigilant eyes of everyone, Baili Chubby stretched out his hand and pointed to the end of the horizon,
A figure in a Taoist robe is stepping on the waves, slowly walking here.
"Don't panic, Tianzun." Baili Chubby said lightly.
