After entering the room, Zhao Xian first pulled down the mask on his face, revealing his face.
"It's quite warm in your room. Is there a fire burning?"
"That's right." Qiao Xuejun felt a little hot after entering the house.
She had been out for most of the day and there had been a fire burning in the house. It was hottest in the small compartment, but the temperature outside had also risen due to the heat.
She was already wearing a lot of clothes and had just walked very quickly. Now she felt a little hot because of the heat. She opened her outermost down jacket and took Zhao Xian to the small compartment.
Pushing open the door of the small compartment, Qiao Xuejun went in. The other three companions were also busy inside, but they all heard the sound and looked towards the door.
Zhao Xian stood at the door of the cubicle, bent down before walking in, and almost bumped his head.
The door frame was a little short for him.
Kuang Qianli's eyes lit up: "Captain Zhao!"
Zhao Xian stretched out his hand and waved, saying hello: "Hello."
Kuang Qianli put down the work in his hands, stood up and introduced himself: "Captain Zhao, my name is Kuang Qianli, and I am from the Northeast."
Zhao Xian nodded, a little surprised: "So far? You are fleeing here? Are you a relative of Teacher Qiao? Are you here to seek refuge with her?"
"That's not the case." Kuang Qianli scratched his head. "It's hard to explain. I came here before the temperature rose. It's like traveling. Fortunately, Qiao Qiao took me and Juan Feng in before, otherwise I don't know where I would be wandering now."
Qiao Xuejun looked at Kuang Qianli helplessly. He told everything like pouring out beans after the other person only asked two questions.
She took off her mask and her down jacket and put them aside.
He said, "Lord Zhao came here to trade today and get some things. He will sit here for a while. You guys take care of him. I'll go pack the potatoes."
Wang Juanfeng stood up and asked: "How many potatoes do you want to load? I'll go, you sit down and take a rest."
She walked up to Qiao Xuejun and said, "Did you run back here? Your face is so red."
Qiao Xuejun put her hand on her cheek and it was indeed a little hot.
We walked back a little fast, but if I had to say how tired we were, it was probably because we were a little tired from carrying the 100 kilograms of potatoes out of the house.
Wang Juanfeng: "You took off all your clothes. It's cold in the warehouse. Don't catch a cold. I'll go pack them. How much?"
Qiao Xuejun thought for a moment and said, "Let's put 300 of them, which is about 100 kilograms."
Wang Juanfeng said yes and went out to pretend. Kuang Qianli followed her and said, "I'll help you."
Qiao Xuejun sat by the stove, fumbling with the magazine to change bullets, and called Zhao Xian: "Lord, you can sit down too."
It stood there like a doorpost.
Zhao Xian looked at her: "Did you give too much?"
They agreed on one bullet for two potatoes. Zhao Xian gave 6 magazines with a total of 102 bullets, which was worth 204 potatoes, but Qiao Xuejun said 300.
One third more.
Qiao Xuejun smiled politely and said nice things: "It's a thank you. The pistol the lord gave me can protect the safety of our shelter. If I had extra potatoes, I would definitely give more, but our inventory is also very tight, so this is all we can give."
Zhao Xian followed Qiao Xuejun's lead and sat down on the empty chair, but he laughed: "Qiao Qiao, do you know why I am sure you are farming?"
Qiao Xuejun didn't know why Zhao Xian suddenly started to call him Qiao Qiao like Kuang Qianli and the others. She was stunned for a moment before answering, "Why? Are you investigating me too?"
Zhao Xian said: "Every soldier in the Mountain Leopard Special Operations Force needs to learn interrogation methods, and identify whether the enemy is telling the truth or lies through different tones, expressions and language organization."
Zhao Xian's success rate in mission practice was almost 100%. Lies could be easily exposed under his nose, and the team even gave him the nickname of a human lie detector.
So when they first met at the farm implement store in the county, he concluded from Qiao Xuejun's evasive talk that Qiao Xuejun was buying the plastic film to farm and not for anything else.
Qiao Xuejun's expression froze slightly.
Doesn't that mean that when she said just now that the inventory was tight, Zhao Xian actually knew at first glance that she was lying?
Zhao Xian: "Don't be afraid. If someone steals your things, just go to the First Base. I'll take care of it."
Zhao Xian didn't tell her that she lied, and Qiao Xuejun was relieved: "Thank you, Lord Zhao."
Lord Zhao: "You're welcome. If you are willing to move to the First Base, that would be even better. No one would dare to steal your things. Consider it."
Therefore, Zhao Xian still did not give up the idea of recruiting her.
The carpenter was still there, and when he heard the conversation between the two, he opened his eyes wide in surprise. The First Base was also recruiting Qiao Xuejun! The previous 7th Base also came to recruit Qiao Xuejun.
But in the 7th Base, she and Kuang Qianli dared to curse, but when facing Zhao Xian, they only dared to listen quietly on the side.
Zhao Xian stretched out his hand towards Qiao Xuejun: "Give it to me, I will teach you."
He was wearing black leather gloves that only revealed half of their knuckles. The knuckles were clearly defined and looked broad and strong.
Qiao Xuejun hesitated for a moment and placed the gun and magazine in his palm.
Zhao Xian held the gun in his right hand and the magazine in his left hand: "Look carefully, there is a magazine release button here."
He flicked his thumb, and with a slight click, the magazine slid out of the gun handle.
Zhao Xian took it naturally.
He looked at the magazine that fell into his hand and saw the bullets inside: "Only 3 rounds were used?"
Without waiting for Qiao Xuejun to answer, he moved the five fingers of his left hand and put the old magazine into the magazine bag on his vest. He held the new magazine and pushed it into the gun handle by the tail of the magazine. There was another click, and the new magazine was inserted tightly. It was easy to succeed.
After loading the bullets, he held the muzzle of the gun and handed the handle to Qiao Xuejun: "It's quite simple. You should practice more. The faster the better. It will be useful in actual combat."
He also took out the old magazine that was originally loaded into the tactical vest and handed it to Qiao Xuejun.
Qiao Xuejun started to hold the pistol and change the bullets neatly, just like Zhao Xian demonstrated. But she was a little clumsy at first. The magazine and the handle had to be in the right position, otherwise it wouldn't go in. Finally, it took a lot of force to push the buckle inside. In short, she had to aim carefully and take her time, which was completely different from Zhao Xian's smooth and flowing movements.
Zhao Xian sat on a chair and reminded Qiao Xuejun who was sitting by the stove, slowly: "By the way, don't put the pistol near the fire."
"Why didn't you say so earlier?" Qiao Xuejun realized that she was too close to the stove, so she immediately stood up and stepped back, letting the pistol and bullets leave the stove. But she had been sitting next to the stove for a long time.
Qiao Xuejun felt a little guilty after asking this question. After all, it seems to be common sense not to keep guns close to high-temperature fire sources, but Qiao Xuejun, who does not often come into contact with guns, has no awareness of this at all.
Zhao Xian joked, "It's no big deal. At most, the bullet will spontaneously combust, but it won't explode. Just treat it as a firecracker and listen to the noise. It won't do any harm."
