There was noise in the corridor, only to hear Yan Qiang scolding with a smile: "Hey, be serious, don't scare Xinmiaozi."
The two walked out of the dormitory and saw that a group of people had just returned from playing basketball. In such a cold autumn, some were wearing wet vests, and some were simply shirtless. Although they used to live and train very close to here, because of Being locked up in the dormitory, it was the first time they had seen so many members of the Snow Leopard Squad, and they didn't know if it was a psychological effect, but the aura of these people looked very different.
Bai Xinyu spotted a person with sharp eyes, pointed at that person and shouted: "Ah, it's him."
Yu Fengcheng followed his fingers to see that he was a strong man in his early thirties, and he recognized him, that was the one who had beaten Bai Xinyu's face swollen for half a month during the field survival training.
The man was stunned, looked at them and smiled, "It's you two boys, yes, I thought you could come in at the time, but I didn't expect to see you here."
Huo Qiao said with a smile: "Old Sha mentioned you several times."
Bai Xinyu subconsciously licked that tooth that was a little loose, and felt her cheeks start to hurt again.
Lao Sha threw the basketball to Bai Xinyu, "Come play with us next time and try to knock out a tooth of mine."
Bai Xinyu raised his eyebrows, "Really?"
Old Shaha laughed and said, "As long as you can hit it."
Huo Qiao said: "Tell you recruits about the structure of the Snow Leopard Brigade. The total number of Snow Leopard Brigade is maintained at around 600 people all year round. It is a regiment-level unit directly under the military area. The brigade has nine squadrons, four of which are in Lanzhou, and five are in Lanzhou. One is in Urumqi, each squadron has five to six squadrons, and in our base there are the 7th and 8th squadrons, and Lao Sha is the squadron leader of the 7th squadron and your boss."
Bai Xinyu felt choked. He looked at Lao Sha, who had a smirk on his face. He asked in surprise, "Are there so many people in this base?" The two squadrons combined had more than a hundred people, but he felt that he Didn't see many people.
"Eight teams are out on missions, and currently there are only seven teams in the base."
Yan Shaozhen said: "When can we carry out the mission?"
Huo Qiao squinted at him, "Why? Are you in such a hurry to go to the battlefield?"
Yan Shaozhen smiled and said, "Sooner or later, don't you want to try for real?"
"Don't worry, I don't have time for you." Huo Qiao said, "I'll give you three days off, and I'll take you to the city for two days."
Lao Sha said: "Deputy team, why do you always compete for such a good thing every time?"
Huo Qiao blinked, "Because I want to go out to play too, don't shout, I'll take you with me if I want to go."
Lao Sha pouted, "I'm not going." After finishing speaking, he slapped his basketball and went into the dormitory.
Bai Xinyu asked Chen Jing, "Squad leader, which room do you and Shaozhen live in?"
"You are diagonally across from each other."
Huo Qiao said: "You newcomers, go back to rest and change your clothes. I will take you to the city in the afternoon."
Bai Xinyu returned to the room, lay down on the bed, and took a deep breath. He still couldn't believe it. He really became a member of the Snow Leopard Squad. He didn't even dare to think about it a few months ago.
Yu Fengcheng also lay relaxed beside him, looking at the ceiling, silent.
Bai Xinyu said: "How do you feel now?"
Yu Fengcheng was stunned, "I can't tell."
"Isn't this your childhood dream? Now that it has finally come true, you should be very excited."
"... I should be excited, but I feel very calm." Yu Fengcheng pulled the corner of his mouth, "Maybe it's because I never doubted that I would fail from the beginning to the end."
"Hey, I can't stand you." Bai Xinyu rolled over and lay on top of him, "Your family wants you to go to military academy, what are you going to do after finishing military academy?"
Yu Fengcheng said: "If possible, I will come back again. Our whole family is a soldier. I have never thought of doing anything else since I was a child, but it is too difficult to go up from a private soldier. I have to go to a military academy."
Bai Xinyu rubbed his chin, "Military academy, it's a pity that I'm too old to study anymore."
Yu Fengcheng smiled and said, "What do you want to do in the future?"
Bai Xinyu shook his head, "I don't know, I never thought about it. If I don't go to military academy, I will be discharged sooner or later."
Yu Fengcheng patted his head, "If you want to stay in the army, I will let you stay, but you can't always be in such a dangerous army."
Bai Xinyu rolled his eyes, "Let's talk about it when the time comes. Actually, I have always wanted to do business. I am much more stable now than before. If I let my brother take me, I should be able to get up, right? My salary is not enough to keep a car."
Yu Fengcheng sneered and said, "Can we live on that?"
After he said this, both of them were stunned. How could they suddenly think about the future? And... It sounds like this is clearly the future shared by two people. They have been entangled for so long and have never discussed about the future, because it is a place that is not suitable for touching. The two men are both only children. Can we really have a common future
Bai Xinyu got up from Yu Fengcheng, "I'm going to take a shower."
Yu Fengcheng let out a muffled "hmm".
Bai Xinyu went into the bathroom, turned on the cold water and poured it on his body, the biting chill made his brain clearer. In the future... where can he and Yu Fengcheng go? He was self-willed since he was a child, and he had to follow him no matter what he was looking for, but now he has grown a lot, and it is no longer possible to only think about himself like before. He likes Yu Fengcheng, but this love is probably in the army The dependence generated in this closed and special environment will make him live with a man for more than 20 years. He doesn't know if he has the courage. The most important thing is... Will there be him in Yu Fengcheng's future? The silence just now may be enough to explain this problem. Bai Xinyu propped his hands against the wall and felt a dull pain in his chest. In fact, thinking about it carefully, the relationship between the two is still like friends with benefits. They are talking about love, never thought that the future can be called love
He took a shower and went out, and he has returned to normal.
The two changed into the casual clothes they hadn't worn for a long time, and gathered downstairs with five other people. Huo Qiao led them out of the base, and drove a minivan to the city.
They took turns driving and visited some scenic spots inside and outside of Urumqi. Huo Qiao acted as a tour guide, and when he came out to "release the wind", he was happier than them, walking and eating all the way. They gradually understood the reason why Huo Qiao brought them out. These three days of play made the mood of these depressed soldiers who had just come out of the "small black room" much better, and the smiles appeared on their faces again.
Bai Xinyu took a lot of photos and sent them to his mother and his brother. His mother interacted with him the whole time and asked him to take more photos of handsome comrades in arms. In the end, his mother came to the conclusion that Chen Jing was the most attractive. The elder brother was rude and cold, and he only replied "um", which made people very sad. After making sufficient preparations, Bai Xinyu told his mother that he went to the special forces, and his mother was shocked. He deliberately made the special forces less dangerous because his mother didn't know enough about the different types of troops. So tall, but at the same time he was ready to be questioned by his father and brother after they found out.
Going back to the hotel to rest at night, Bai Xinyu had something he had been holding back for a long time, and finally said to Yu Fengcheng coyly, "Fengcheng, what happened to that...that thing last time?"
Yu Fengcheng looked at him with raised eyebrows, knowingly asked: "What's the matter?"
"That's it." Bai Xinyu winked.
Yu Fengcheng kicked him, "Speak well."
Bai Xinyu said with a guilty conscience, "That girl."
"Oh, that girl who lay naked next to you all night, and you bought someone a bag worth more than 40,000 yuan? Are you fucking taken advantage of?"
Bai Xinyu swallowed, "You know all about this?"
Yu Fengcheng twisted his ears, "When I called you that day, you still dared to lie to me that I was buying a gift for your mother."
"I... I did buy it for my mother too..." Bai Xinyu pushed his hand away, "Oh, don't bully me, what's going on?"
Yu Fengcheng stared at him, "You're so shy to mention to me, she opened her mouth and asked my buddy for a million."
Bai Xinyu opened his eyes wide, "You won't give it, will you? Let me tell you, I can't afford to pay one million now. My dad gave me all the cards..."
"You think I'm you." Yu Fengcheng gritted his teeth angrily, "I really fucking wonder how you messed around in those years in Beijing."
Bai Xinyu said cautiously: "But I really didn't sleep with her."
"No." Yu Fengcheng sneered, "But you dare to lie to me next time..."
"No more." Bai Xinyu shrank his neck and whispered, "I'm drunk."
Yu Fengcheng gave him a blank look.
Bai Xinyu bravely asked: "Then what happened in the end?"
"I was forced to tell the truth by my buddies, and I paid 10,000 yuan."
Bai Xinyu breathed a sigh of relief.
The more Yu Fengcheng thought about it, the more angry he was, and he threw him on the floor bed, "Last time you made such a fuss with me after only two weeks back, if you go back for a long time, will you really be able to make a child?" ?”
Bai Xinyu argued: "Why can't you understand people's words? I told you that I didn't want to find anyone. I just drank too much."
"In the future, you are not allowed to drink when I am not here."
Bai Xinyu smiled and said, "Who else can I drink with except you?"
Yu Fengcheng lowered his head and pressed his lips against his lips, muttering, "You can pay me the money."
Bai Xinyu said vaguely, "What do you mean, I'm worth ten thousand."
Yu Fengcheng tore off his clothes, "Let me estimate the value..."
The two soon saw each other naked, their desire heated up, and the whole room was warmed up.
After playing for three days, the group returned to the base with unfinished business.
Huo Qiao didn't give them time to slack, and started training right away. This kind of training is long-term, so the intensity has decreased compared with the second round of selection, while the proportion of combat courses has increased.
A few days later, Huo Qiao called Bai Xinyu aside during the rest time. Bai Xinyu was quite surprised. Huo Qiao showed Bai Xinyu the phone screen. It was a text message from "Jian Suiying" and the content was : Ask him to call me back.
Bai Xinyu felt a little nervous, "Why did my brother contact you?"
"Your mobile phones are no longer usable. Of course it is the fastest way to contact me." Huo Qiao looked at him with his arms crossed. "You are really interesting. Such an important matter has come so far. What are you going to do now?"
Bai Xinyu scratched his head, "Deputy team, can I use your mobile phone to call my brother back?"
Huo Qiao handed him the phone, "Come back before the break."
"Yes." Bai Xinyu took the phone, walked to a place where no one was around, and made a call while walking.
It was quickly connected over there, and a familiar voice came from the microphone, "Hello, Huo Qiao."
Bai Xinyu took a deep breath, "Brother, it's me."
The other side was silent for a while, then heard Jian Suiying gritted her teeth and said: "Bai, Xin, Yu."
Bai Xinyu was startled. He found out sadly that he was still afraid of his brother, even if he could knock him down with one hand now, even if he was not afraid of beating at all, but the obedience he had cultivated towards his brother since he was a child is still the same. He instinctively felt a sense of crisis. He smiled as calmly as possible and said, "Brother, I haven't contacted you for a long time. How are you?"
Jian Suiying didn't like this at all, and scolded: "Is there something wrong with your mother's brain? Who asked you to be a special soldier? Do you know how many people in the special forces die a year? Do you know when it will be your turn? "
Bai Xinyu said: "Brother, I know, but I think this place suits me..."
"It's suitable for a fart. Auntie is only your son. If something happens to you, have you thought about them?"
Bai Xinyu was silent for a while, "But brother, you have to be prepared to go to the battlefield when you become a soldier, don't you? Otherwise, what kind of soldier would I be?"
"Can other arms be the same as special forces?" Jian Suiying said angrily, "I'm too lazy to talk nonsense with you on the phone. I'm at the airport and I'm flying to Urumqi now."
Bai Xinyu said anxiously: "Brother, don't come, I've already made up my mind, I..."
Jian Suiying had already hung up the phone.
Bai Xinyu stared blankly at the phone, feeling dizzy for a while. He didn't expect that he had already passed the selection and would face another major crisis. His brother is quite difficult to deal with. If he really made up his mind to take him back , he really didn't know what was going to happen...
When returning the phone, Huo Qiao raised his eyebrows when he saw his dejected expression, "What? Did you tell me?"
Bai Xinyu nodded.
Huo Qiao shook his head, "You too, and so does Fengcheng, they all cut first and then play, what are you playing?"
Yu Fengcheng came over, "Xinyu, what's wrong?"
Bai Xinyu muffled: "My brother is coming here to arrest me."
Huo Qiao stared, "What?"
Bai Xinyu looked at Huo Qiao, "Deputy team, this is a secret military base. Ordinary people can't come here. Call my brother and tell him not to come."
"This base is not so secret that we can't have visitors. Sui Ying insists on coming, and I can't stop him. Besides your own family affairs, you should handle it yourself."
Bai Xinyu patted his forehead depressingly.
Yu Fengcheng said: "There's nothing to worry about. If you don't want to go back, don't go back. He can't tie you up."
Bai Xinyu sighed: "You don't know my brother, my brother is very scary when he is fierce, and not only can he be tough, he can also speak. He will definitely speak until I am too guilty to lift my head."
Yu Fengcheng raised his eyebrows, "You really adore him."
Bai Xinyu nodded, "I can't help it. I have been here since I was a child. My brother is more dignified than my father to me."
Yu Fengcheng snorted softly, "That depends on whether you are firm enough."
Bai Xinyu clenched his fists, "I finally got in, I won't leave."
Jian Suiying arrived in Urumqi that night, Huo Qiao sent someone to pick him up, and arranged him in the army guest house near the base.
After Bai Xinyu's training was over, Huo Qiao took him to see Jian Suiying, and Yu Fengcheng insisted on following him.
The four of them hadn't eaten yet. Huo Qiao opened a private room in a small Sichuan restaurant. Bai Xinyu's heart was pounding as soon as he got out of the car. He felt flustered at the thought of facing Jian Suiying's anger soon.
As soon as the box was opened, the man sitting inside and playing with his mobile phone raised his head. He still had an outstanding appearance and a rebellious temperament. Jian Suiying, who hadn't seen him for half a year, was no longer as decadent and haggard as he was during the Chinese New Year. Heroic glow.
The moment Jian Suiying's fierce eyes fixed on Bai Xinyu, they turned into astonishment.
Bai Xinyu blinked, and called out flatteringly, "Brother, you're here."
Jian Suiying stood up abruptly, with a face full of disbelief. If he was surprised to see the changed Bai Xinyu during the New Year, then this refined and neat special soldier in front of him made him feel a little strange. He got a little tanned, and his appearance obviously hasn't changed much, but his whole person is not what he used to be. If it weren't for that "brother", he might not dare to recognize anyone even standing on the street.
Huo Qiao smiled and said, "Sui Ying, long time no see, how is it? I didn't scare you, did I? Do you still recognize your brother now?"
Jian Suiying sat back in the chair, her Adam's apple twitched, and it took her a long time to say: "I can't recognize it."
Bai Xinyu tried hard to get back to his original self, leaned close to Jian Suiying and hugged him, and said with a smile, "Brother, I miss you so much."
Jian Suiying pushed him away, "Don't play tricks, sit down."
Bai Xinyu sat aside, rolled up his sleeves and showed off his muscles, "Look, bro, I'm pretty strong now."
Jian Suiying was still unable to recover from Bai Xinyu's great changes, so she gave an absent-minded "hmm", and what she had planned to say when she came here was a bit out of order now.
Huo Qiao also sat next to Jian Sui Ying, "Sui Ying, we haven't seen each other for two years."
"No, since you were transferred to Xinjiang, it's really not easy to see you." Jian Suiying poured two glasses of wine and handed him one.
Huo Qiao took the wine, laughed and said, "Then you can treat this trip as a special trip to see me?"
Jian Suiying smiled, "Put it down, I miss you so much? I'm here for my younger brother. Come on, before we get down to business, I'll toast you."
The two clinked glasses heavily, stuffing the baijiu into their stomachs in one gulp.
Bai Xinyu looked at Yu Fengcheng as if he was a little nervous. Yu Fengcheng touched his calf from under the table to signal him to calm down.
Jian Suiying put down her wine glass and rubbed Bai Xinyu's head, "Look at what you posted, don't you look in the mirror?"
Bai Xinyu smiled and said, "It's better for a man to be black."
Jian Suiying narrowed her eyes, "Two years ago you said that it was popular to be a jerk now, and you wanted to be a jerk for the rest of your life."
Bai Xinyu sneered slightly, "I'm still young."
"How old are you now?" Jian Suiying pinched his chin and looked at his face carefully, "I asked you to come to the army to change your temper, but you have overcorrected now, you know? Your changes have already satisfied us Now, you can come back with me now."
Bai Xinyu shook his head, "Brother, I can't go back. You don't know how much effort and hardship I have gone through to get into the Snow Leopard Team. I haven't done anything yet. I can't go back."
"What do you want to do? Do you think it's fun to use real swords and guns? If something happens to you, what will your parents do?"
Bai Xinyu said seriously: "Brother, besides being a son, I am also a soldier, so I don't have a small family like everyone else."
Jian Suiying frowned, "You really learned a lot in the army. I don't want to know how you were brainwashed. You are my younger brother. I just can't let you be such a dangerous soldier. I have to deal with the discharge procedures." I have already found someone to do it, Huo Qiao, please let me go."
Huo Qiao touched his chin, but didn't speak. Although Yu Fengcheng's face remained calm, his fists were clenched under the table.
Bai Xinyu took a deep breath, "Brother, I won't leave."
Jian Suiying narrowed her eyes, "Say it again."
"I'm a member of the Snow Leopard Squad, I won't leave."
Jian Suiying slapped him on the head, "What the hell is going on with you? Have you been short of food or clothing since you were a child? Do you need to work hard?!"
Yu Fengcheng said coldly: "He is so old, he can make his own decisions."
Jian Suiying was also in a very bad mood, and said bluntly: "It's not your turn."
Yu Fengcheng was furious, and just about to say something, Huo Qiao pressed his knee and looked at Bai Xinyu quietly.
Bai Xinyu stood up abruptly, grabbed the Moutai on the table and poured it into his mouth several times.
This move shocked all three of them, it was 53 degrees wine.
Bai Xinyu put the wine bottle on the table, wiped his mouth, and looked at Jian Suiying with red eyes, "Brother, I understand the truth of what you said, and I have grown up a lot in the past year, but just now It's because I'm mature that I can't go back with you. I used to be a bastard, to put it bluntly, to dawdle, to dawdle, to spend countless energy on meaningless things, and to get nothing in the end. I don't want to live again That kind of life. It was only when I joined the army and really started to like the life of the army that I felt that I had found my own value. I never had any success or praise on my own, but here, I can learn from an ordinary private Becoming a member of the No. 1 Special Forces in the Northwest is all about myself, brother, do you know how difficult it is, do you know how difficult it is for me to be able to wear a dress with a snow leopard head logo armband, for the first time in my life I feel awesome, it’s my first time, bro!"
Jian Suiying stared at him blankly, Bai Xinyu's persistent and heroic look made him feel surprised and strange, is this really the younger brother he looked up to since he was a child? Thinking back to his decision to send Bai Xinyu to the army in a fit of rage, he really did not expect that he would turn Bai Xinyu into such a... a real man, no longer the dandy boy he used to be. It was no longer an idiot that made him hate iron and steel, but a man who could become a special soldier. He had always hoped that Bai Xinyu would be successful, but now that Bai Xinyu really impressed him, he couldn't help worrying.
Bai Xinyu grabbed Jian Suiying's arm and said softly: "Brother, I never dared to go against your will since I was a child, because I knew you were always right, and you are right now, but I can't go with you. I am a special soldier, I have a sense of belonging here, I can’t shrink back because I’m afraid of death before I go to the battlefield!”
Jian Suiying played with the wine glass and looked deeply at Bai Xinyu with a solemn expression.
