After taking on the task, Chen Xi followed Sikong Ling up the mountain to dig for treasures.
Yes, in addition to sending the treasure down the mountain, it also needs to be dug out.
Only after Chen Xi climbed the mountain did he know what was there.
It turned out to be an arsenal!
A mountain at the back was hollowed out to make an arsenal. Because there were so many things, the enemy couldn't take them away after being defeated, so they left them here.
They also sent a few JDs from their side to keep an eye on it. Sikong Ling received a mission from the military to investigate the truth of this matter, but he never thought it was true.
It was terrifying to see box after box of ammunition being moved out.
If the enemy had been more brutal, the entire mountain would have been razed to the ground.
Fortunately, those enemies were afraid of death and did not dare to do anything too outrageous.
After spending most of the day moving things, Chen Xi even went to the military camp to have lunch.
Otherwise, why do people say the food in the military is so good?
You can also eat meat, but I don’t ask for much in terms of taste, as long as it tastes good.
It is unlikely to make it as enjoyable as what Chen Xi did.
Everyone is eating it, so it would be unreasonable for me not to eat it.
I had been busy all morning and was indeed a little hungry.
Chen Xi ate the delicious food while holding the aluminum lunch box.
Sikong Ling walked over to Chen Xi, sat down, and started eating with her.
As the two were eating, suddenly a dark shadow enveloped them.
They looked up at the same time and saw a familiar figure.
"Little educated youth Chen, are you tired? I brought you some water, please drink some!" Wang Hongqi handed over a bowl of water eagerly. Upon closer inspection, she saw that she was also carrying a bucket.
Chen Xi suddenly felt speechless.
But looking at the scorching sun and Wang Hongqi's sweaty face, Chen Xi felt that it was a bit too much to refuse the other party's water.
After thinking for a moment, before he could answer, Sikong Ling smiled and took the water handed to him by Wang Hongqi. "Wang Zhiqing, you are such a good person! Let's all come over and have some water!"
Then he quickly stood up and asked everyone to come over and drink water.
It directly eased Chen Xi's embarrassment.
Chen Xi couldn't help but give Sikong Ling a thumbs up.
Sikong Ling glanced at Chen Xi's admiring eyes and chuckled, "You little brat, you admire me already?"
Won’t there be worship in the future?
Chen Xi naturally didn't know what Sikong Ling was thinking. After finishing his meal happily, he used the aluminum box that had been used to clean the rice to scoop a mouthful of water from the bucket that Wang Hongqi brought over and drank it down in a loud gulp. "Thank you, Wang Zhiqing, the water is very sweet."
"As long as you like it..." Wang Hongqi was a little dissatisfied with Sikong Ling's actions at first. He had added sugar to this bucket of water to nourish Chen Xi's body, but now all the water has been taken away by outsiders.
But when she saw Chen Xi also drank, her face suddenly turned even redder and she turned her head away, not daring to look at Chen Xi.
Chen Xi didn't even look at Wang Hongqi. He wiped his mouth, took two steps on the spot to digest what he had eaten, and then strode towards the mountain.
Sikong Ling also stood up and followed, "Let's go to see the young Chen Zhiqing together."
"Okay." After saying that, the tall one and the short one walked into the mountain together.
Looking at their backs, I feel like we're a good match.
Wang Hongqi watched the two people leaving. The bucket of water was soon used up. She watched Chen Xi's back disappear into the forest reluctantly, then turned and left.
Time always flies when working. When they got off work in the afternoon, Chen Xi and Sikong Ling went down the mountain together. They caught a wild rabbit and a pheasant on the way.
Considering the high intensity of work these days, proper nourishment is very necessary.
After the two of them discussed it, they threw the things to Sikong Ling to deal with, and Chen Xi went back to make a fire and cook.
As soon as I entered the house, I saw Wang Hongqi appear at the door of my house holding a porcelain steel cup.
"Wang Zhiqing, you don't have to bring me water. I have water to drink at the Zhiqing site now." Chen Xi pointed to his water tank.
"No, little educated youth Chen, this is the malted milk I made for you, try it..." Wang Hongqi put the porcelain steel cup on Chen Xi's table, turned around and ran out.
Chen Xi was stunned. Malted milk?
I can't accept this favor from the other party!
As a girl, Chen Xi understood that Wang Hongqi liked her and wanted to pursue her.
But as a woman, how can I give him any promises or future?
So he decisively took the porcelain steel cup and a small bag of sugar and walked out.
As soon as Wang Hongqi returned to the collective dormitory of the educated youth center, she heard Chen Xi standing at the door of her room calling her.
He was a little surprised, but when he came out and took a look, his face turned pale.
"Little Chen, you are..."
"No reward without merit, Wang Zhiqing. My family doesn't really want me to find a partner in the countryside, even if the other person is an educated youth." Chen Xi found that Lin Lili's excuse was quite useful, so he used it too.
Such an obvious and decisive rejection made Wang Hongqi a little heartbroken. He looked at Chen Xi's eyes for a long time without reacting. After a long time, he finally burst into tears.
Chen Xi was a girl herself and couldn't bear to see girls crying, so she put down her things and turned away in a hurry.
"Hongqi, what's wrong with you? Did that dwarf bully you?" There were several female educated youth in the room. When they saw Wang Hongqi crying, they hurried forward to comfort him.
"Doesn't he like me? Is there something not good enough about me?" Wang Hongqi's girlish feelings were strangled in the cradle just as they were budding. Her girlish heart felt like it had suffered a critical hit of 10,000 points.
"Don't worry about him! He is blind and can't see that you are a good girl." Everyone began to comfort Wang Hongqi.
Except for the weird Li Sisi, everyone else in this educated youth camp is normal.
Chen Xi naturally didn't know what had happened at the female educated youth center. After returning to the room, she continued cooking.
Sikong Ling also came back after dealing with the pheasants and rabbits.
Chen Xi used these two ingredients to make a simple stew of chicken and mushrooms and stir-fried diced rabbit. The aroma instantly spread out, filling the entire educated youth camp.
Because the rabbit and chicken are both large in size, I made two large pots, which would definitely be more than two people could finish.
This kind of weather would get worse the next day, so Chen Xi thought that he couldn't let anyone find fault with them and accuse them of eating alone.
So he gave two bowls of meat to Sikong Ling who came in from outside.
"What are you doing?" Sikong Ling looked a little surprised when he took the two bowls of meat from Chen Xi's hands.
He looked down at the two bowls of meat in his hands, his eyes full of confusion.
"We can't always eat meat here and let them watch. Besides, the weather is very hot and the dishes can't be kept until tomorrow. We can't finish so much, so let's share some with them!" Chen Xi pouted and pointed in the direction inside.
