Day after day, the waves crash against the rocks on the shore, and the sun rises and sets.

In the blink of an eye, half a month has passed.

At noon that day, Lin Hui was lying on the ground with a weight on his back, doing push-ups hard.

His clothes were already soaked, and a human figure was dripping from sweat on the ground.

“1998.1999.2000……”

Lin Hui panted heavily, but his movements were getting faster and faster, and he didn't have the slightest intention of stopping.

"Lin Hui, it's time to eat!"

Suddenly, the voice of the squad leader was heard in the distance.

"It's coming!"

Lin Hui got up from the ground and ran towards the outpost

As soon as he entered the house, the veterans enthusiastically surrounded him and helped him take off his equipment: "Hurry up and eat, don't be tired!" ”

"You are training like this day by day, the amount of training is too terrifying, just looking at me feels scary!"

"Hey, this rucksack is so heavy? How many rocks did you put in? ”

Lin Hui smiled: "It's not much, it's forty kilograms." ”

The veterans' jaws hit the ground directly: "I'll go!" Forty kilograms is not much, crazy crazy, really crazy! ”

Wei Yongnian handed over the chopsticks: "Hurry up and eat, we have all eaten, and you are left." ”

Lin Hui smiled and said, "Thank you, squad leader, I'm really a little hungry." ”

Seeing Lin Hui gobbling up, Wei Yongnian poured him a glass of water: "Eat slowly, it's not enough." After the meeting, take a little rest, don't always think about training, don't you want your body? ”

"It's okay, squad leader, I'm not tired."

This is half a month.

Lin Hui trains a lot every day.

To increase the difficulty, he wears weights no matter what he is training with.

There is nothing else on the island, but there are many stones.

With Lin Hui's current physical fitness, even if he is carrying a weight of forty or fifty kilograms, he can still walk like a fly.

Under his crazy training, his abilities have improved in a straight line, and he has already thrown these veterans off eighteen streets!

The only regret is that there is no way to train with live ammunition.

Although there are guns on the island, there are not many bullets, and one shot is one less.

Lin Hui could only practice aiming day after day, looking for the feeling of shooting a gun.

However, even he doesn't know what the current marksmanship is.

"Eat vegetables, eat more vegetables."

Wei Yongnian put several pieces of beef in the bowl for him.

Lin Hui looked at the mountains piled up in the bowls, and said with a wry smile: "Squad leader, I can't pile it up." ”

"If you can't pile it up, eat it slowly, training is so hard, how can you do it without nutrition?"

Wei Yongnian smiled and said, "Don't train tonight, have a good rest, and tomorrow morning, I will send you to the division headquarters." ”

Lin Hui was taken aback: "The martial arts competition is about to start?" ”

Wei Yongnian smiled and nodded: "That's right, Lian Li gave an order just now." Let me send people over tomorrow to prepare for the all-division competition the day after tomorrow. ”

Wu Meng hurriedly said: "Lin Hui, this is a good opportunity, you must seize it." As long as you get the ranking, you can get out of here! ”

"But...... I'm a little reluctant. ”

Lin Hui stopped suddenly.

Through this time together, he fell deeply in love with this place.

The care of the squad leader and the love of the veterans have become all he has.

Moreover, he had already left the house once, and he knew that the pain of separation, that feeling, was like tearing a piece of flesh from his body......

"What nonsense, what's so good about us, where the palm is big, a cigarette will be gone."

Wu Meng said seriously: "You are very good, you should go out and have a look, feel what it means to have thousands of troops and horses, and what is a million heroes!" Only then will you be able to become a real soldier and become the best soldier! ”

"But what if I don't get a place?"

Lin Hui asked with a wink.

The veterans glanced at each other and laughed: "Others may not go, you go, keep going!" We can pack tickets, and the champion of this competition is none other than you! ”

Wei Yongnian also smiled and patted him: "Lin Hui, modesty, is your biggest problem." During this time, we can all see that you kid, you are a character, forty kilograms of weight on your back, and you can still walk like a fly, I have been a soldier for so many years, and I have seen it for the first time. ”

"It's too wronged to stay here, this can be your halfway destination, but it will definitely not be your destination, you should fly further."

Lin Hui was a little reluctant: "Squad leader, I'm leaving, so what should you do?" ”

Wei Yongnian laughed and said: "The iron-beaten camp, the flowing soldiers, over the years, I don't know how many people have left behind." What's the matter, do you feel that when you leave, we won't be able to eat, we won't be able to sleep, or will the earth not turn? ”

"No, no, that's not what I meant."

Lin Hui hurriedly shook his head.

Wei Yongnian said earnestly: "Lin Hui, I hope you go this time, don't come back, you are a good soldier, you deserve to go to a better place, this is not your stage, your stage, outside!" ”

Lin Hui looked at everyone's expectant eyes, and suddenly felt a warm current in his heart.

He was reluctant to be here, but he also didn't want to live up to the expectations of the veterans.

Now, he is no longer the soldier he used to be, always thinking about messing around.

He didn't want to be good just to compete with Wang Yixue.

In the past, Lin Hui always felt that he was forced by his father to move forward and explore the meaning of being a soldier.

But now, having gone through so much, he also has his own ideas.

He had to go to a wider place and find his future!

Lin Hui nodded heavily: "Don't worry, I will definitely not let you down!" ”

……

In the evening, the veterans helped Lin Hui pack his luggage.

In addition to a change of clothes, I also stuffed a lot of food in my bag.

Eggs, ham sausages, and canned meat, these are usually reluctant to eat......

"Lin Hui, you're leaving, I want to give you a souvenir."

Wu Meng took out a pentagonal stone: "This is what I picked up on the beach, although it is just an ordinary stone, I have always worn it as a talisman, and now I give it to you, hoping that it will bring you good luck." ”

Lin Hui held the stone in his palm and said movingly, "Thank you, Wu Meng." ”

Wu Meng smiled and gave him a hug and patted him on the back: "Go to a new place, don't forget us." ”

"Definitely not."

Then, Liu Shan walked up with a conch: "Lin Hui, this is for you." ”

"I can't ask for it."

Lin Hui hurriedly shook his head.

During the days when he came to the island, he saw Liu Shan sitting alone on the rocks on the shore, blowing conches, and looking at the sea.

This thing, he usually wraps it in a cloth and puts it in a cupboard.

Last time, Zou Peng wanted to take it out and play with it, but he was almost in a hurry.

This is enough to show how precious this thing is to him.

Liu Shan stuffed things into his hands: "If you want to take it, take it!" Anyway, we are also fellow countrymen, if you don't accept it, you will look down on me! ”

Lin Hui was a little helpless, so he could only take it first.

Liu Shan looked at him and said: "This conch was picked up when I came to the island on the first day, although the conch on the island is very common, but only the sound it blows is the most pleasant and the best." ”

"Now, I want to give it to you, I hope that wherever you go in the future, as long as you blow him, you will think of the sea, of Crescent Island, and of us."

Lin Hui looked at the conch in his hand, and his nose suddenly soured: "Thank you, Liu Shan, I hope we can meet again in the future!" ”

"Definitely, by then, maybe I'll be admitted to a military school."

The veterans gave out the gifts in turn.

It's not a valuable thing, but each one is memorable.

Lin Hui will also treasure it for a lifetime.

In the end, Wei Yongnian walked up to Lin Hui, took off the watch in his hand, and put it on his hand.

"Squad leader, this is too valuable, I can't ask for it!"

Lin Hui wanted to retract his arm, but was dragged by the squad leader: "It's just an old watch, and it's not a valuable thing." ”

"Lin Hui, you are the best soldier I have ever led, and you may be the last soldier!" He touched the old watch, smiled and said: "I have been carrying this watch all these years, sunrise and sunset, when to stand guard every day, when to rest, I rely on it." ”

"Although it is a little slower and louder, I still hope that you can take it and keep a thought, don't dislike it."

"Squad Leader......"

Lin Hui looked at the old watch in his hand, and he couldn't stop crying anymore.

went up and hugged the squad leader and hugged him tightly.

Once upon a time, he always felt that he was a heartless person, and he didn't know what it meant to cry.

But since the call came to the troops, this is the second time he has cried......

Wei Yongnian wiped his face: "Why are you still crying, like a child, quickly wipe it." ”

Lin Hui wiped his tears with his sleeve: "Squad leader, if you have a chance, I will definitely come back to see you!" I promise! ”

"Okay!"

Everyone smiled happily.

……

Early the next morning.

As soon as the sky was bright, Lin Hui followed the squad leader out of the outpost

Coming to the shore, the veterans were already lined up, waiting for him in the cold wind.

"Salute!"

With a loud roar, all the veterans puffed up their chests and saluted him.

Lin Hui's body was shocked!

That's how the veterans greeted him when he first arrived.

Now that they are leaving, they say goodbye in the same way.

Lin Hui put down his luggage, his eyes were red, and he returned the salute vigorously: "Thank you, thank you!" ”

The veterans smiled and said, "Lin Hui, take care of yourself, eat on time, sleep on time, don't be too tired!" ”

A warm current surged in Lin Hui's heart.

He nodded with tears in his eyes and got on the departing boat.

Looking at the island behind him that was gradually moving away, his heart was tormented like fire.

Once again, he left the place he loved so much, warm like home.

……

Two hours later, the ship finally approached the port.

On the shore, the company commander and instructor of the border district are already waiting.

"Good company commander, good instructor!"

Wei Yongnian took Lin Hui up to salute.

The instructor stared at Lin Hui and frowned: "Old Wei, what's the situation?" Didn't you say before that you would let Wu Meng come, why did you suddenly change people? ”

Wei Yongnian smiled and said, "Wu Meng is not coming, let him come!" ”

"Nonsense!"

The company commander said angrily: "Whoever comes can't be replaced by a bastard who beats veterans!" ”

The company commander glared at Wei Yongnian: "Wei Yongnian, you are a fifteen-year veteran, why don't you understand anything at all?" Such an important game, you, you send a new recruit to forget it, it's still a ......"

"What do you want me to say about you!"

Wei Yongnian smiled awkwardly and said in a low voice: "Company commander, you can believe me for a while, this kid is very powerful, he will definitely do it!" ”

The company commander scolded angrily: "Do a fart!" Hurry up and send someone back for me! ”
