Chapter 14: Shooting
The eighteen members of the mountain team were officially incorporated into the Dragon Tooth Army the next day. Bai Wen and Fei Shi directly entered one of the four core battalions of the Dragon Tooth Army, the Wind Battalion, which was the envy of others. Under the Dragon's Tooth Army, there are four core battalions, divided into: wind, fire, thunder, and lightning. Wind Battalion, proficient in message spying and transmission, Fire Battalion, proficient in frontal assault combat methods, good at using magic weapons, Thunder Battalion, proficient in tactical planning and layout, and Electric Battalion, proficient in assassination. The personnel of the four battalions are different, but the total number of them is only more than 200 people, and the rest of the battalion headquarters are all regular establishments, which can be used as a logistics supplement base for the personnel of the four battalions.
The wind camp originally had sixty-four people, divided into eight detachments, Bai Wen and Fei Shi were arranged in the eighth detachment, the captain was a lean old man with sharp eyes, known as the 'land eagle' Hou Kejie.
"I bet you won't live to end the war. This is the opening remarks of Hou Kejie when he meets the two of them, "Do you know why? Because you are so good, excellent people will die faster than others." Don't think that being good is a good thing, because that will only attract the opposition of the enemy and the envy of your own. The first thing you have to learn from the time you join the Wind Camp is to hide your own light. You know what?"
"Yes, Captain!" the two of them gave a military salute to Hou Kejie with solemn expressions.
Hou Kejie did not reprimand the two of them, but used a unique tone to warn the two of them how to save their lives. In this way, it immediately won the respect of the two.
"For the next period of time, I will personally teach you how to become a qualified Dragon Tooth Warrior. ”
"Yes. ”
"Now all you have to do is go and wash my shoes and pants from yesterday. I haven't worn clean clothes for a whole month. ”
"Yes, Captain. The two picked up Hou Kejie's shoes and trousers and rushed out.
After three months of training, the two of them have long been accustomed to obeying any order and executing it immediately, which is about to become a kind of conditioned reflex.
"Captain, the shoes (pants) have been washed, please take a look. In a short time, the two of them had already washed.
"Yes, it's good to dry. Hou Kejie looked at the two of them, did not find a trace of resentment, and was quite satisfied, "Based on the dirt on the soles of my shoes and the smell of my pants, you guess where I went yesterday?"
Bai Wen was stunned for a moment, his eyes widened, and he was completely confused.
I saw Fei Shi talking eloquently, "The soles of the shoes are mixed with mud, and it is difficult to distinguish, but there are some tree moss, and there are traces of thorns on the pants, with a faint smell of aconitum ferns." So I deduced that the captain must have gone to the barracks of the Creation Kingdom to find out the information about the grain and grass. ”
Hou Kejie's eyes closed slightly, as if two points of essence light came out, and he said lightly, "Why do you infer like this?"
"Our army is a camp on the mountain, and there are no old trees in the camp that can grow moss, and the moss on the soles of the shoes must come from outside the camp. And aconitum fern is a unique ingredient of the Wang Army, the capital of the Singularity Kingdom, with a pungent taste and strong smell, which is not supplied by other armies. So I boldly deduced that the captain had gone to spy on the enemy's food camp. ”
This time it was Hou Kejie's turn to be dumbfounded, "I have never seen such a thoughtful and well-informed recruit as you." The afterlife is terrifying, awesome! awesome!" and shouted several times, "Awesome."
"The captain doesn't know, I was born in the Singularity Country, and I know the military and civilian customs of the Singularity Country quite well. Due to the persecution of the traitors, a family of nine died tragically, and I escaped alone and joined the Dragon Tooth Army, just to avenge the blood and revenge. Fei Shi revealed his background, and his face was full of resentment.
"Good boy!" Hou Kejie nodded in approval, "The blood sea of hatred will naturally be avenged! If you are so good, you should be tempered a little more and wash the clothes and shoes of all the personnel of Team No. 8!"
"Yes!" Fei Shi replied aloud, suppressing the pain and anger in her heart, and turned to collect the dirty clothes and shoes in the camp.
"It's a good thing I'm not good! Otherwise, I'll have to do the laundry and shoes. Bai Wen was glad in his heart.
"Then stupid, you take the clothes and shoes of all the other team members and wash them, and remember my question, wash them carefully. ”
Hou Kejie's words were like a scoop of cold water, pouring down on his head. Bai Wen was so excited that he didn't dare to slack off, so he flew to other camps to collect clothes.
This is the unusual training method of the Dragon Tooth Army, and Bai Wen and Fei Shi have to spend their efforts every day to deal with such a mess and all kinds of problems. Today is to wash clothes and ask about whereabouts, tomorrow is to sharpen weapons and ask opponents, and the day after tomorrow to deduce clues from food. Hou Kejie named his training method 'Sharp Eyes', which allows trainees to find clues from the most ordinary details, and then deduce the desired information through powerful and meticulous logic.
This kind of whimsical training method hit Bai Wen hard, and he once thought that his IQ was not enough, and Fei Shi's performance was even more staggering, and several incredible reasoning shocked even the experienced Hou Kejie.
In addition to training, the people of the Wind Camp also participate in a guessing game called 'shooting', in which items are placed in a closed box and guessed what they are.
On this day, Bai Wen gambled against others, won three games in a row, lost a lot, and was very unconvinced, so he asked Fei Shi for help.
"You and I bet against each other, the first to win three games wins. "Participating in the competition is a team of sharp knife fighters Zhao Kaifeng, who is recognized as the first in the level of shooting.
"If you win, I won't want any of Bai Wen's lost monthly salary, and I'll give you ten gold coins. But what if you lose?"
Fei Shi took off a spar pendant around his neck and said: "This is a third-order water-based magic ornament, named: Qin Li, which has the effect of clearing the heart and soothing the body, cultivating martial arts can get twice the result with half the effort, and it also comes with a second-order magic - water shield, worth at least a thousand gold coins." ”
"A recruit actually has such a treasure!" "A treasure worth a thousand gold bets on a dozen gold coins, and the bet is very unfair." Onlookers were amazed.
"Since you play big, I'll play with you. Zhao Kaifeng looked at Qin Li, who was constantly emitting the element of fresh water, his face was greedy, he took out the saber on his waist and slapped it on the table, "I will use my 'Hundred Refining Blue Cobalt Knife' as a bet to compete with you." ”
Bai Wen and Fei Shi are both recruits, although they have performed well in the selection training, but the shooting test is the individual's observation, analysis, and inference ability, which requires not only intelligence, but also strict training and rich experience.
"It's only been a few days since the two of you joined the Wind Camp, and they haven't been systematically trained, how can they be my opponents? This is simply a treasure for me!" Zhao Kaifeng thought secretly.
As if he was worried that Fei Shi would not do so, Zhao Kaifeng immediately took out his treasure knife and slashed it on the stake at will, and the stake with the thickness of the bowl mouth was immediately divided into two sections. This knife is three fingers wide, four feet long, swarthy, the blade is engraved with mysterious patterns, simple and heavy, but the blade reveals a line of blue light, extremely sharp.
"This knife was obtained by me during a mission, and although the value is not as good as your glass, it is also hard to change. I'm adding 200 gold coins, is that possible?"
"Yes. Fei Shi said, "I just happened to lack a weapon to take advantage of, so you sent it." ”
"Less nonsense, let's get started. Zhao Kaifeng said.
The two sides elect several people whom both of them trust, and each arranges different guessing items. In a short time, ten boxes with items were placed on the table for the two of them to guess. The two sides take turns to take the lead, one side guesses, and the other side guesses. After the two sides have guessed, they open the box and announce the answer. The team that guesses correctly alone scores points, and the correct or incorrect guess does not score points. Until whoever gets three points first wins the game.
With three pieces in a row, both of them guessed the objects in the box correctly, regardless of the winner or loser. Until the fourth piece, Zhao Kaifeng guessed first, and concluded that it was a spruce branch, Fei Shi guessed that it was a spruce root, opened the box and looked, sure enough, it was a spruce root, and Fei Shi was one point ahead.
Then in the eighth, thirteenth, and nineteenth, the two sides won and lost, and the battle was two to two.
"It's a lump of mud inside. "The twenty-fourth piece, it was Zhao Kaifeng who guessed first.
"I guess it's a mud doll. Fei Shi gave a slightly different answer.
The box was opened, and a round clay doll stood in the middle, smiling. This time, it was Fei Shi who won the first three games.
Bai Wen shouted, and stepped forward to get the 'Hundred Refining Blue Cobalt Knife'.
"Don't move. Zhao Kaifeng punched out, stopped Bai Wen, and snatched the treasure knife on the table in his hand.
Bai Wen lightly avoided the heavy punch, pointed at Zhao Kaifeng and said, "Do you want to play tricks?"
Zhao Kaifeng threw the money bag to Fei Shi and argued strongly: "I didn't guess wrong in this game, it's just a lump of mud, a bit like a doll, I can't be counted as losing." However, Fei Shi guessed more accurately, and the 200 gold was considered to be his win. ”
"And the knife? The knife is also a bet. Bai Wen said loudly.
"Two recruits, they should be content when they get the gold coins, who is qualified to negotiate conditions. This knife is my life, and I can't afford to lose it. If you make any more noise, don't blame me for being ruthless. Zhao Kaifeng said angrily.
"Bastard, willing to gamble and lose, dare not admit it! If you want to fight, then come. Bai Wen exclaimed. After training for so long, he hasn't been afraid of anyone in a fight.
"Bai Wen, forget it. Fei Shi said something to stop him.
"No, can a recruit be bullied like this? I'm going to let him know how good a recruit is. Bai Wen stepped forward, clenching his fists and about to make a move.
Zhao Kaifeng watched Bai Wen step forward step by step, and he felt that a terrifying momentum was gradually increasing, and he was a little out of breath.
"Ha-" Zhao Kaifeng finally couldn't bear it anymore, shouted, and directly pulled out his knife and slashed it, the knife went like the wind, and went straight to Bai Wenmian's door. Everyone exclaimed, this knife was so fast and ruthless, and it was merciless, obviously trying to take Bai Wen's life.
The knife is fast, Bai Wen is faster! I saw the figure flickering, and Bai Wen was already standing in front of Zhao Kaifeng with his face on his shoulder, hitting Zhao Kaifeng's falling wrist. It looked like Zhao Kaifeng had slashed and hit Bai Wen's shoulder with his wrist.
'Click-', there was a slight fracture sound, but it was Zhao Kaifeng's arm that was broken, and there was no time to cry out in pain, Bai Wen made a tiger claw print on Zhao Kaifeng's chest.
Zhao Kaifeng fell a few feet away, and he spurted out a mouthful of old blood, and the knife couldn't hold it, so he fell to the ground.
With just one face, he beat the sharp knife soldiers of the wind camp until they vomited blood, and everyone who was watching gasped.
Is this recruit a monster?
"I hate people who don't keep their promises. Bai Wen stepped forward, picked up the treasure knife, and handed it to Fei Shi.
Fei Shi just reached out to hold the handle of the knife, but before he could try the feel, he was grabbed by the two of them from behind and couldn't move. It turned out that the army led the patrol personnel to come, and saw that there were people in the barracks who were fighting because of a gambling game, which was a blatant violation of military regulations.
"Private brawls are forbidden in the barracks, and you are so bold that you dare to use weapons. The army member said angrily, "Take down all the people who just fought, and wait for disposal." ”
The patrol soldiers pounced over, locked Bai Wen and Zhao Kaifeng, who fell to the ground and couldn't get up, with chains, and pressed them to the gate. Armed brawl in the barracks is a felony, and when he heard the news, Hou Kejie immediately rushed to the Fengying Chief's account.
