Chen Jing said softly on the radio: "Xin Yu, you are panting too loudly."
Bai Xinyu quickly shut his mouth. In his hand was a 95 assault rifle. This was the only gun they got. He used this gun to beat Yu Fengcheng in the shooting competition. Moving the target round, he is very familiar with this gun, he will definitely be able to hit the target well, and he will definitely hit the target! He quietly took a deep breath, feeling that his feverish brain had calmed down a little. He lay down in the grass, letting the weeds block his body, and then searched for the enemy hiding behind the shadow of the tree.
Yu Fengcheng whispered: "Cover." He and Chen Jing rushed out of the grass suddenly, and the gunfire continued.
Bai Xinyu locked a soldier who had left the shelter of the big tree in the crosshairs, his index finger was rubbing the trigger, and his mind was in a state of blankness for a moment, this was the first time he aimed at a living person, it was not a breast ring target, nor a beer bottle, It's a living and moving person. The speed is so fast, much faster than a moving target, but... much slower than a beer bottle thrown in the sky! Bai Xinyu pulled the trigger suddenly, and there was a bang, and the person in the front sight was shot in the chest, and white smoke immediately came out, blocking Bai Xinyu's sight for a while. Bai Xinyu's heart was beating extremely fast, he was so excited that he wanted to shout, he hit it! He killed an "enemy"! So cool! So happy!
Yu Fengcheng's deep voice came from the earphone, "Good job."
Bai Xinyu rolled around in the grass, left his original position, and crawled towards the enemy. White smoke kept coming out of the woods, and he didn't know whether it was the enemy's or his own. The smoke obstructed Bai Xinyu's sight , he couldn't distinguish those enemies who hadn't "dead" for a while, so he could only get closer.
Just as he was crawling forward, he suddenly felt the grass in front of him move. He looked in that direction keenly, and vaguely saw a dangling water bottle. Without thinking, he raised his gun and pointed towards A shot was fired from that direction, and the opponent's gunshot rang out at the same time, and it exploded right next to his ear, white smoke billowed in front of him, Bai Xinyu looked at him in panic, fortunately, he was not shot!
The smoking man stood up with a helpless face.
Bai Xinyu smiled smugly at him and continued to climb forward.
Suddenly, the sound of a motorcycle came from a distance, and he turned his head to see that Liang Xiaomao and Daxiong rushed over on their motorcycles, and put two smoking "dead men" in front of them as meat shields.
Chen Jing shouted: "Xiao Mao, it's 11 o'clock!"
The gunshots kept ringing, Yu Fengcheng, Chen Jing and others forced several enemies back, Liang Xiaomao drove a car beside them to cover them, and let them wipe out several enemies in one fell swoop.
"Xinyu, jump off!"
After Bai Xinyu "killed" another enemy, he ran down the hill and jumped onto the motorcycle. The motorcycle was quickly overloaded. Liang Xiaomao stopped aside, pushed the two "dead men" off, and said with a smile: "Thanks, brother."
A "dead man" said, "Hey, leave one of my cigarettes for me anyway. "
Daxiong shook the pack of cigarettes, "This is a trophy!"
After speaking, the motorcycle rushed forward with eight people on it, and quickly left the soldiers and gunfire behind them far away.
"It's the first time I know that this car can be loaded so well, hey, don't squeeze me."
"Don't squeeze, I'm about to fall."
"Just use the rope to drag you away."
"Ah, I'm going to drop..."
The motorcycle drove them for less than two kilometers, and the mailbox bottomed out. Their dream of being lazy was completely shattered. Sure enough, those people could not give them such a convenient means of transportation.
Several people carried their luggage on their backs and continued to run forward.
Bai Xinyu asked Chen Jing, "Squad leader, how many did you kill just now?"
Chen Jing smiled, "Two."
"There are three of me!" Bai Xinyu said with a smile, "One of them hid in the grass and planned to ambush me, but I found out. I shot faster than him."
"Good job." Chen Jing patted him on the shoulder.
Bai Xinyu's heart trembled, thinking of Yu Fengcheng's words "well done" on the radio, Bai Xinyu suddenly became more confident.
They hurried for more than ten kilometers. It was already afternoon, and everyone was hungry. Usually, at this time, they had already had a full lunch and started training in the afternoon, but from morning to now, they only had one meal Dry food is not directly proportional to the consumption of physical energy.
They chose a hidden place to rest. Big Bear rubbed his stomach and drank, "I'm so hungry."
Chen Jing grabbed his water bottle, "Don't drink too much, we haven't found a water source so far, save it."
Everyone couldn't even fulfill their desire to drink enough water, so they could only lie on the ground and sigh.
"We need to find something to fill our stomachs." Wang Sheng looked around, "What to eat?"
Li Jiale rolled his eyes, "Moss, mushrooms, weeds, vines, tubers...you can choose."
Bai Xinyu said helplessly, "Is there anything nasty?"
"Yes, earthworms, beetles, ants, scorpions, if you're lucky, there might be mice."
Big Bear swallowed, "We're not hungry enough for that."
Yu Fengcheng patted him on the shoulder, "You can say this again at this time tomorrow, we can't shoot, we can't make fire, and that's probably the only food we can eat."
"What's the use of being able to shoot a gun, and there are no bullets." Liu Liu said depressedly, "The hare was missed just now, and it jumped too fast."
Chen Jing said: "Let's go, you can't stay in one place for too long."
Everyone stood up, tried their best to eliminate the traces of their rest here, and continued to walk forward.
Before the sun went down, they were ambushed again. Fortunately, no one was shot. After they made a way out, they ran frantically for three or four kilometers before throwing off the pursuers.
It seems that there are constant ambushes along the way, and they may be sniped at any time. Several people are highly nervous, and they dare not take any trouble lightly. No one is in the mood to chat and joke like they did in the morning. They are afraid of making any noise. Hunger and physical exhaustion, at night, each of them was exhausted.
Chen Jing wiped off the sweat on his face, "We should get rid of him, let's rest in this place tonight."
Yu Fengcheng said: "Let's find something to eat first."
Liang Xiao lay down on the ground, touched his stomach, and said in a deep voice, "I'm so hungry."
This sentence is the voice of everyone.
They quietly searched for something on the ground.
Bai Xinyu also lay down on the ground to look for it. Suddenly, he saw a familiar grass. He grabbed a handful and said excitedly, "This is purslane. This is edible."
"Really? How do you know?"
Bai Xinyu blinked and whispered, "This...we use it to feed pigs..."
Chen Jing chuckled, "Xin Yu, why not say that every experience in life is meaningful."
Bai Xinyu said awkwardly: "It doesn't make much sense." He rubbed the grass with his clothes, swallowed, closed his eyes, opened his mouth, stuffed the purslane into his mouth, just chewed it twice, he pooh He spit it out with a bang, shit, it's too fucking hard! Life is not easy for pigs.
Several people laughed in a low voice.
Yu Fengcheng held out the water bottle to his mouth, Bai Xinyu took it and took a sip, then rinsed his mouth vigorously.
Chen Jing picked up a handful of grass, "Eat it, it will fill your stomach anyway." After speaking, he stuffed it into his mouth without hesitation. Resisting it, he swallowed it hard.
Li Jiale kept digging something on the ground with a dagger, and after a while, he said excitedly: "It's out, it's out."
Everyone leaned over to see that he pulled out a long earthworm from the soft soil he turned over, and everyone showed disgusted expressions.
Li Jiale said: "I baked and ate it when I was young."
"When were you young?"
Li Jiale pursed her lips, "I don't remember, my mother said it."
"Hey, can you eat now? You can't make a fire."
Li Jiale looked at the earthworm that was still wriggling, and gritted his teeth, "It's only been about ten hours since 72 hours, I can't handle it if I don't eat meat." He grabbed a handful of purslane and wrapped the earthworm in it , he rubbed his nose, "This is like eating barbecue. Rolling it with vegetables can kill a lot of the smell of meat."
Bai Xinyu's face wrinkled, "Are you sure?"
Li Jiale nodded, with a tragic expression on his face, "If I don't go to hell, whoever will go to hell." After speaking, he suddenly stuffed the purslane wrapped in earthworms into his mouth, and started chewing. Everyone stared at him with wide eyes. Watching him forcefully swallow what was in his mouth into his stomach.
"How, how?" Chen Jing asked cautiously.
Li Jiale said: "To be honest, this hogweed is too bitter and unpalatable. It doesn't taste like earthworms at all. You can eat it at ease."
Big Bear swallowed, and silently dug up the ground with the dagger, and the others followed suit.
Bai Xinyu quickly dug out the earthworm from the ground. The earthworm had extremely strong vitality, wriggling desperately in his hand, the cool touch made people feel sick. He looked at the earthworm and kept thinking, his young master Bai is going to eat the earthworm raw? Or eat with pigweed? This life is too much to pursue. What is he trying to figure out? Could it be that the heavens saw that he was tall, handsome and lucky, so they insisted on creating some tribulations for him to test him
Yu Fengcheng said with a low smile: "Eat it, close your eyes and stuff it into your mouth, don't think about it."
Bai Xinyu whispered, "Do you have to eat these to be a special soldier?"
Yu Fengcheng pulled the corner of his mouth, "You should be grateful if you have something to eat. When you go back, you can ask Squad Leader Wu what they ate back then, except for human flesh..." Yu Fengcheng shrugged, "Human flesh may not be, who knows? .”
Bai Xinyu shuddered, and ruthlessly ate what was in his hand. He didn't give himself time to hesitate, and chewed desperately. He felt that he chewed something soft, wet and cool, and seemed to move a little bit. , At this time, he would like to thank those pigweeds instead. Li Jiale was right, they were indeed too bitter, so that he couldn't taste other flavors, so he bite the bullet and swallowed what was in his mouth.
After stuffing their stomachs with some food, they felt that their physical fitness had recovered a bit. Half of them slept, half of them kept watch, and took turns to rest.
Bai Xinyu huddled under a tree root, too tired to speak. The oil paint on his face had been smeared by the frantic sweat, and it was sticky and smeared on his face, which was very uncomfortable. In fact, the physical consumption so far is not as good as their previous two field training camps, but at that time, they were not so nervous and afraid, and they didn't have to eat weeds and bugs, worrying about whether they would be covered in smoke in the next second and be eliminated. That kind of heart hanging feeling is the most tormenting.
He felt that he couldn't sleep. Although his body was very tired, his brain was still in a state of excitement. The raids, ambushes, gunshots, and white smoke during the day kept appearing in his mind. The excitement of triggering the trigger filled his brain. He opened his eyes, looked at Yu Fengcheng who was resting with his eyes closed, and couldn't help crawling over.
Yu Fengcheng was very alert, he opened his eyes all of a sudden, his obsidian-like eyes silently looked at him in the silent night.
Bai Xinyu crawled to his side and lay down next to him, Yu Fengcheng leaned in to make room for him, neither of them spoke.
Yu Fengcheng groped for Bai Xinyu's hand, Bai Xinyu passed it up, and lightly clasped his hands, Yu Fengcheng squeezed his palm, and Bai Xinyu squeezed his, it was an inexplicably effective way to comfort them and make them tired The body and mind got a little comfort.
Sleeping until midnight, they changed shifts to watch. Chen Jing and Liang Xiaomao stood guard on the east side, while Yu Fengcheng and Bai Xinyu leaned against a big tree on the west side, forced themselves to hold their eyelids, and yawned as they looked at the dark woods.
Yu Fengcheng said in a very low voice: "Can you hold on?"
Bai Xinyu shook his head, "No problem." He leaned towards Yu Fengcheng and whispered, "There are so many stars."
This place is far away from the human city, and there are no lights to cover the night sky. The sky is full of stars, which is intoxicatingly beautiful.
Yu Fengcheng said: "Do you regret coming?"
"Why do you regret it? Although I am tired and nervous, it is also very interesting. I may not have such an experience several times in a lifetime."
"This is not a game." Yu Fengcheng said.
"I didn't take this as a game. Where can there be such a tortured game."
Yu Fengcheng said lightly: "Torture? This is just the beginning."
Bai Xinyu sighed, "Tell me, what are the conditions for passing the selection? Why didn't your uncle tell you?"
"If you don't say it, there is a reason not to say it."
"Wouldn't it be the top three who arrived first?"
Yu Fengcheng turned to look at him, and smiled softly, "Are you trying to trick me? Do you think I know?"
Bai Xinyu blinked his eyes, wondering if his question was so obvious
Yu Fengcheng glanced at him, "Idiot, you still want to hide that from me."
Bai Xinyu whispered: "Then do you know?"
Yu Fengcheng stared at him, "How could my uncle give me the chance to vent the question, are you crazy?"
Bai Xinyu lowered his head resentfully, "I only know what counts as elimination, but I don't know what counts as passing, this... this is too..."
Yu Fengcheng's eyes flashed with excitement, "It's this kind of selection that is interesting. Moreover, it is absolutely impossible to reach the top three such a simple standard. Maybe the 50-kilometer raid is just the first task. After all, my uncle has no When it comes to the destination, it's over."
Bai Xinyu rolled his eyes, feeling that the road ahead is long, and many monsters and ghosts are waiting for them.
Yu Fengcheng touched his forehead with his lips, "You performed well today, but if you can't hold on anymore, don't force yourself."
Bai Xinyu raised his head, "I found that it's not difficult to force myself, no, that's not called force, that's called challenge, every time you challenge yourself, you may be surprised by your progress, which is very cool."
Yu Fengcheng looked at Bai Xinyu's bright eyes, his heart trembled slightly, and he whispered: "You are right."
Bai Xinyu grinned, "So this time, the young master has to move forward until he can't walk anymore."
Yu Fengcheng couldn't help lowering his head, and gently sucked his lips, Bai Xinyu sucked his lower lip, the two kissed silently, only the sound of insects and birds in the dark woods, the world is so big, But it was so empty and silent, as if only they were left in the world.
At dawn, the group set off. They didn't see any teams other than them along the way, and they didn't know whether those teams were left behind by them, or whether they were taking a different path. No matter what, they didn't dare to take it lightly, after all, no one knew whether they were One of those 40 who arrived last.
The hogweed and earthworms that they ate last night had been digested after one night, and they were still hungry. Fortunately, not long after dawn, they found a small stream that could just replenish their drinking water.
The creek was at the foot of the hillside, just in the terrain between two mountains and a ditch. The terrain in the ditch was flat, the trees were sparse, and there was no place to hide.
Looking at the clear water flowing in the creek on the hillside, several people swallowed unconsciously.
"What should I do? Can't get down to get water?" Liang Xiaomao shook his water bottle, "I don't have much water, how about you?"
The others didn't speak, obviously there was not much left.
Yu Fengcheng frowned and said: "It's too risky. If you are attacked here, you will be a living target. There is nowhere to hide."
"There may not be someone attacking." Wang Sheng looked around, "It looks quite peaceful."
Chen Jing narrowed his eyes, "If you really want to ambush, how can we see it?" The hillsides on both sides are covered with vegetation, so hiding people is not a problem at all, as long as a sniper is placed in any place, eight of them Half of them can't run.
"Aren't you going to fetch water?" Big Bear swallowed hard, "I'm so thirsty."
Yu Fengcheng shook his head, "Forget it, it's too risky."
"If we don't drink water, we won't have enough physical strength today." Liu Liu wondered, "Do you want to gamble again?"
Chen Jing said: "The possibility of losing this bet is too great, I don't want to gamble."
Everyone was silent for a while, and finally gave up their plan to go down to fetch water, and continued to walk forward, but when they passed the stream, they looked at the surface of the water shimmering under the sun, and imagined the beauty of the stream. It is clear and sweet, how moist it will be when it flows into the throat, it makes my heart feel hot and uncomfortable, and I wish I could plunge into the stream and drink it to my heart's content.
Their journey became more and more tiring. After summer, there were a lot of mosquitoes in the woods. They had already been bitten many times on their bare skin, and their whole bodies were extremely itchy. Some places were scratched and bleeding. There was a section of the road where the trees were sparse, and the sun came in directly, making them dizzy. Wearing camouflage uniforms that covered their entire bodies, they were so hot that they sweated down their skin. It’s just that they can be called hungry and thirsty, but they can’t be called tired. If soldiers call out tired, it’s like losing. If they don’t say this word, they can tell themselves to persevere, and they have not reached the limit of their true physical fitness. , they can't say the word "tired".
After walking all morning, they didn't come across an ambush. Judging from the average rate of those people attacking them, it is estimated that the creek in the morning was a trap. Fortunately, they took a detour to avoid it, otherwise the entire army might be wiped out.
After two o'clock in the afternoon, when the sun was at its strongest, they found a shady place to rest.
The wounds on the mouths of a few people who bit the rope were inflamed, the corners of their mouths were cracked, and it hurt when they moved. When they stuffed weeds into their mouths, they all grinned.
The corners of Bai Xinyu's mouth were also cracked, but not as serious as them. Compared to the corners of his mouth, his feet hurt the most now. He took off the marine boots and socks that had been on his feet for almost two days. Sure enough, there were many blisters on his feet, and every step hurt so much that he wanted to scold his mother.
Chen Jing sighed, "Let's pick out the blisters, otherwise it will affect walking."
Enduring the pain, Bai Xinyu pierced the blisters with a dagger, sprinkled some medicinal powder, and wrapped his feet with gauze. Others also treated them briefly. Although it was not impossible to walk, the accompanying pain was unavoidable. .
As soon as the last person put on his boots, Yu Fengcheng, who was in charge of the sentry, suddenly fell to the ground, "Someone is chasing you, hurry up." As soon as he finished speaking, gunshots rang out.
Several people put their equipment on their backs and rushed forward. While running, they looked for trees to hide, and then waited for an opportunity to turn back and fight back. Looking at the shadows moving among the trees, there may not be too many people this time. Just when they were hesitating whether to fight or run, Liu Liu, who was running in the front, suddenly yelled, and then he was hung by a rope He dragged his feet into the air.
Everyone was shocked, Bai Xinyu raised his gun and wanted to shoot the rope, but then remembered that their guns were full of empty bullets.
Liu Liu yelled: "Run, run down the slope! There are people in front and behind!" He shouted as usual, pulling out his dagger to cut the rope, but it was too late, and after a few shots, billows of white smoke billowed from his body. , his movements froze, and then he relaxed his limbs and let out a heavy sigh.
Bai Xinyu stared blankly at him for two seconds, felt sore, was pushed down the slope by the people behind him, and quickly found a hidden position by taking advantage of the terrain. At this time, everyone felt resentment in their hearts. Although they knew that being shot or something was not real, it was true that they were eliminated. This day and night, Liu Liu who followed them all the way here was no less than them After suffering a lot, they were eliminated because of a trap on the ground. If someone else ran ahead, under such a tense situation, how many of them could escape the trap
There was only one thought in their mind: don't run away, kill them!
