Chapter 110 Let’s warm up first?
Li Dongshui's expression changed: "Kill him?!"
Xu Ge's expression was also a little unnatural, but he didn't say anything.
The fact that Qi Ruibiao could get involved with people like Liu Yang must mean he has already committed treason!
Xu Can looked at the nanny and asked, "Have Wolf Head and the others found out what Qi Ruibiao's current situation is?"
Xu Ge and Li Dongshui also looked over immediately.
After learning yesterday that Qi Ruibiao was Chen Lu’s boyfriend, the nanny immediately reported the situation to Wolf Head. With Tianlang’s intelligence capabilities, he probably has figured it out.
The nanny nodded and said, "After being removed from the list, this kid disappeared for a while, but he didn't return to his registered place. He didn't appear in Xinjiang until three months later.
Just yesterday afternoon, four people were suddenly murdered in their homes in Hotan Prefecture. These four were drug dealers and competitors of Liu Yang!
Xu Ge's expression was serious: "The murderer is Qi Ruibiao?"
Nanny: "The murderer hasn't been identified yet, but there are several suspects. According to the surveillance footage, one of them looks a bit like him."
Li Dongshui remained silent, with a complicated expression.
Xu Can said, "Xu Ge, Li Dongshui, I know Qi Ruibiao was once your comrade in the recruit company, but he was expelled from the army long ago and has now become an enemy of our Wolf Brigade!"
The reason why she said this was because the two people in front of her were new recruits who had been in the army for less than a year. Xu Can was worried that they felt burdened, so she spoke out to comfort them.
"I know I can still distinguish right from wrong."
Li Dongshui said in a low voice, then looked at Xu Ge, "Xu Ge, do you think that A Biao was harmed by that woman Chen Lu and ended up like this?"
Xu Ge's mood was also complicated. Although Qi Ruibiao framed him and took the blame at that time, to be honest, he really did not regard the other party as his mortal enemy.
Unexpectedly, when we met again, we became two completely opposing camps.
But he had lived two lives, so naturally he thought more maturely than Li Dongshui. He shook his head and said, "Ah Shui, you can't say that. Everyone chooses their own path, no one forces them!"
"What's the meaning?"
"Let me ask you, would you put yourself in Qi Ruibiao's situation? Would you risk your life for a girlfriend you met online?"
Li Dongshui was stunned and whispered, "I don't know how to do that..."
"That's it, isn't it?"
Xu Ge continued, "If it were anyone else, they wouldn't be so love-sick, but at least they would know what's important. Unlike him, he actually wanted to desert the army just to go back and coax his girlfriend."
Li Dongshui said angrily: "The key is that Chen Lu is still such a drug addict and a bitch!"
Seeing that the two new recruits didn't show the symptoms he was worried about, Xu Can looked at the nanny and asked, "You just said you were going to go back and solve this problem. How exactly do you plan to do that?"
"The three of you continue forward and try to keep some distance from Liu Yang and his group. I'll go back alone from somewhere else and take care of Qi Ruibiao tonight before coming back to find you!"
The nanny looked at the three of them and said, "But you'll have to work hard and carry my backpack for the time being."
Xu Can nodded. "That's no problem. Bring your satellite phone and headset with you so we can stay in touch throughout the trip."
The nanny spread out the map, pointed at it, and said, "Qi Ruibiao should camp tonight at the alpine pasture or the sheepfold. After all, these are the two most suitable camping spots along the way. You guys hurry here tonight, and I'll try to meet up with you before dawn..."
"Sister Qing, I'll go with you!" Xu Ge suddenly said.
The other three were a little surprised and turned to look at Xu Ge.
The nurse asked in confusion, "Why do you want to come with me?"
Xu Ge: "Didn't you say that the reason a team has a minimum of four members outdoors is so that no one will be left alone when they need to separate?"
"The situation is different. I can actually go faster if I go alone and travel light!"
The nanny almost said that Xu Ge would become a burden if he followed her.
Xu Ge understood what the other person meant, but still insisted: "Two people are definitely better than one. In case of any special situation, we can look after each other. Sister Qing, believe me, if I go with you, it will only make us go faster!"
"Will you be faster if you come with me? Why?" the nanny was a little confused.
Xu Ge: "Because I can see more clearly than you at night, I have good eyesight, hearing, and smell, so I can be your guide!"
"Is this true?"
"Really? If you don't believe me, ask them!"
Li Dongshui and Xu Can nodded at the same time.
The nanny looked at Xu Can and asked, "Do you also think it would be better for Xu Ge to be with me?"
Xu Can thought for a moment and said, "If his stamina supports long-distance cross-country travel, it would indeed be much more convenient to have him around. At least he could spot any anomalies sooner."
The nanny looked at Xu Ge again and said, "From here to the alpine pasture, the round trip is about 60 kilometers, and we have to cross the Hakal Pass in the middle. Can you do it?"
Xu Ge said with determination: "I'll try my best to keep up the speed!"
The nanny sucked her teeth, thought for a while, and then made the decision: "Okay, then you can come with me. If it really doesn't work out, I'll carry you on my back when we get back. Just make sure we go fast enough!"
Xu Ge: What the hell???
Are you carrying me?
Is this guy's physical fitness really that abnormal? !
Li Dongshui then said quietly, "If you two go together, then my cousin and I will have to carry four backpacks on our way."
Xu Can was at a loss for words: "We're not walking very far. I'll carry more weight later."
Li Dongshui quickly shook his head: "No, no!"
The nanny said, "You two can find a stick and string Xu Ge's and my backpacks together and carry them. This will save the most effort."
"Okay, when do we leave?"
"Now!"
Xu Ge stood up: "Well, okay, let's warm up first."
"OK."
Li Dongshui nodded naturally, stood opposite Xu Ge, and left room for the other two.
Nanny: ???
Xu Can: ???
"Warming up? Do you think we're going to do a five-kilometer training?" The nanny was confused.
Xu Can was even more confused by Li Dongshui's reaction: "Cousin, this is not necessary, right?"
Xu Ge said seriously, "Warming up will make you feel more relaxed. It's very useful!"
Nanny and Xu Can: "Is this true?"
Li Dongshui immediately endorsed it: "Really! I tried it several times! Come over here and stand still. It's very simple!"
The two walked over hesitantly and stood side by side with Li Dongshui. Xu Can asked, "Is this what Deputy Class Leader Guo taught you?"
Li Dongshui shook his head: "We learned it in the recruit company."
"Alright, no talking in line!" Xu Ge coughed. "Everyone, one push-up, start!"
The three of them lay down together and did a push-up.
The token automatically appears.
[Military orders are 100% executed by regimental units, general skill value +3, the current unit gains a temporary physical proficiency bonus]
Immediately afterwards, a half-hour countdown appeared next to the token.
Seeing the three people cooperating so well, Xu Ge continued to shout, "One more time, one push-up, start!"
The three of them lay down and stood up again.
[Military orders are 100% executed by regimental units, general skill value +3, the current unit gains a temporary physical proficiency bonus]
What surprised Xu Ge was that, unlike the previous times, the countdown time after the second military order was executed did not increase from half an hour to one hour, but became 45 minutes.
He remembered that he had made a bet with Guo Yuanshuai once before. After winning, he practiced it with the whole class several times in a row. At that time, the countdown time was increased by one minute each time.
Does this mean that when the unit executing the order reaches the regimental level, the countdown duration will also change?
With this guess, Xu Ge was about to continue shouting commands when Li Dongshui clapped his hands and got up from the ground: "Okay, warm-up is over!"
Xu Ge: ...
Damn, it’s hard to cheat acquaintances!
The nanny and Xu Can were once again confused: "That's it? Doing two push-ups is considered a warm-up?"
"Actually, just one is enough. This is the first time for both of you, so we need to do an extra one to ensure the effect."
Li Dongshui spoke with the tone of someone who had experienced it, "How is it? Do you feel better than before?"
The nanny moved on the spot for a moment, her eyes lighting up: "It seems to be true!"
Xu Can: "Yeah, I feel more energetic too."
"Then let's go our separate ways while we're still in good shape!" Xu Ge said with a smile.
Afterwards, he and the nanny took a small amount of water and dry food and headed back, while Li Dongshui and Xu Can continued forward with four backpacks.
At this time, the sky was gradually getting dark, and the two of them were moving forward towards the Renqi River, one in front and one behind.
The nanny was very fast. Although there was no road in the mountains and there were gravels underfoot, she walked so fast that Xu Ge had a hard time following her.
The nanny turned around and said, "Can you go any faster?"
Xu Ge was shocked: "What do you mean? Are you slowing down the pace the whole time?"
"Hmm." The nanny nodded, then frowned and said, "I suddenly thought of something."
"What's up?"
"Do you know much about Qi Ruibiao?"
"It's okay. The new recruits are all in the same class."
The nanny stroked her chin and said, "Tell me, if a bootlicker knows his girlfriend is right in front of him, will he set off overnight?"
Xu Ge recalled what Qi Ruibiao had done before: "Maybe he would really do this!"
Nanny: "Then we have to hurry up."
"Yeah! No problem!" Xu Ge suddenly remembered something, "By the way, Sister Qing, what day is it today?"
"Sunday, what's wrong?"
"Nothing, let's keep going!"
Xu Ge actually remembered that today was the day for the regiment's military meeting. The time notified was 7:30 in the evening, and it was already past seven o'clock.
The orders for these people's meritorious service and awards will be announced at the military meeting, which means that the system's rewards will be credited tonight!
Because they were traveling light, the two of them returned much faster than when they came, and reached Renqi River in about 20 minutes.
The river water was a bit turbid, and it seemed that a flash flood had broken out not long ago. No wonder there was no trace of Liu Yang and his group along the way. Maybe these people were still on the other side of the river and had not come over yet.
The nanny came directly to a wider river and said, "Let's cross the river here."
Xu Ge was a little puzzled: "This place is so wide, can't we find a narrower place?"
"If we go any further down, we might run into Liu Yang and the others. The river is wide here and no one will cross it."
“That makes sense!”
Xu Ge began to reach out to zip up the small bag on the nanny's back.
The nanny turned around and asked: "What are you doing? Are you thirsty or hungry?"
Xu Ge shook his head: "Neither. Aren't we going to cross the river? I'll get the rope and safety buckle."
"No need, just do it all at once to save time!" said the nanny as she started to take off her pants and shoes.
"What do you mean by one-time pass... Holy crap!!!"
Xu Ge suddenly felt that his whole body was off the ground!
He didn't even see the nanny's movements clearly. He just felt that she stretched out her hand and bent down, and then he was carried on the shoulder by this guy with one hand.
Wow! Wow!
The nanny carried Xu Ge in one hand and held his shoes and pants in the other as she waded into the river. She shook Xu Ge twice as she walked: "Why do I feel like you don't even weigh 70 kilograms? Are you really that light?"
Xu Ge: ...
I couldn't help but complain in my heart: You have a bonus to physical proficiency now, of course you feel relaxed!
. . .
. . .
On the alpine ranch, Qi Ruibiao was sitting on the threshold of the wooden house, fiddling with the double-barreled shotgun, while the ranch owner was tying a bandage on the monkey's head.
In the open space in front of the door, two lamb legs were sizzling in the residual heat of the charcoal fire.
After the rancher finished treating the wound on the monkey's head, he moved out a table, placed the two lamb legs on a plate, and sprinkled seasoning powder on them.
"It's time to eat! Do you want to drink some wine?" asked the ranch owner.
Qi Ruibiao waved his hand, picked up a knife, cut a piece of mutton and put it in his mouth to chew.
"Mmm, it tastes delicious! Monkey, come and eat!"
"Here comes Brother Biao!"
The ranch owner also brought a bench over. He had just sat down and taken a few bites when Qi Ruibiao picked up his hunting rifle and pointed it at a lamb grazing dozens of meters away. He asked, "Adasi, do you think I can shoot that lamb in the eye?"
The ranch owner's face froze and he didn't dare to speak.
Monkey, however, was just enjoying the fun and said with a smile, "Brother Biao, I don't think you can hit it. This is an old gun, and the sight is broken!"
Qi Ruibiao raised his gun and aimed at the lamb, licking his lips: "What if I can hit it?"
Monkey: "If I hit you, whatever you say will happen!"
Bang!
A gunshot rang out.
Qi Ruibiao pulled the trigger without any warning, and the ranch owner was frightened and shuddered violently. The cattle and sheep in the ranch were also frightened and ran around in panic.
The lamb fell on the grass, its body twitching constantly. Its left eye had been smashed and blood was oozing out.
"Brother Biao is awesome!" The monkey clapped his hands.
Qi Ruibiao ejected the shell, calmly reloaded it, and said with a smile, "Monkey, you just said that if I hit you, you'd do anything."
The monkey didn't take it seriously and said carelessly: "Brother Biao, just speak up. Anyway, you saved my life. No matter what you ask me to do, I will never say no!"
"good!"
Qi Ruibiao held a gun in one hand and a knife in the other, cut off a large piece of mutton, and looked at Monkey, "Then tell me the truth, in the past few days since Lulu came here, have other men been interested in her?"
Monkey's face changed, and he said unnaturally: "Brother Biao, don't worry about this. The boss has always taken good care of Lulu. He specifically issued a death order, saying that Lulu is your woman, Brother Biao, and no one is allowed to have any thoughts!"
Qi Ruibiao stuffed the mutton into his mouth, but the barrel of the hunting rifle in his right hand was pointed at the monkey intentionally or unintentionally: "I know Brother Liu's character very well, but I also know what kind of people those other people are. You'd better not lie to me!"
Monkey now realized the seriousness of the problem and quickly sat up straight: "Brother Biao, I swear that none of us have done anything to let you down, but...but..."
"But what?!"
There was murderous intent in Qi Ruibiao's eyes.
"But Sister Lulu arrived a day earlier than us. She followed the group ahead of us for a while, and I heard that their guide, the shop owner from Black Mountain Village, didn't seem to respect Sister Lulu..."
puff!
Qi Ruibiao stabbed the lamb leg through with one knife, and the knife was deeply embedded in the table.
The ranch owner and the monkey were so frightened that they dared not breathe.
"Eat quickly, then we'll travel overnight!"
Qi Ruibiao stared at the ranch owner. "You should also prepare to take us to... that place you mentioned before?"
"After passing Hakkaler Pass, I haven't been to that place anymore!" the ranch owner said hurriedly.
Qi Ruibiao nodded. "It's the Hakkale Pass. I see you have a few horses on your ranch. I'll take them along with you! Monkey, you can ride a horse, right?"
"meeting!"
In less than half an hour, the three of them finished packing and rode out of the ranch on their horses.
It was already dark, and the ranch owner reminded them, "Don't worry about it while you're on the horses. Just sit tight. Get off when you get to a steeper part. My horses know the way!"
Qi Ruibiao glanced at the ranch owner and grinned. "Adasi, you're a good person. Don't worry, we'll settle everything once we get there. I'll also give you 2,000 yuan as a guide fee."
The ranch owner quickly waved his hand and said, "No need to pay me. I already owed you money. You're right. I'll pay it back in one lump sum!"
"good!"
The three riders began to move forward in the mountains.
The ranch owner walked in front, and the two horses behind him followed skillfully without any need to control the direction.
At around 10 o'clock in the evening, the ranch owner stopped by a stream and signaled to the horses to drink water and rest.
There was a cliff not far from the stream. The three of them sat down on the cliff. The ranch owner took out a roasted leg of lamb and gave it to the two of them.
Qi Ruibiao took a bite and found the mutton a little bland because it was cold. He asked, "Adasi, did you bring the seasoning? Sprinkle some chili on it."
“Yes, yes, yes!”
The ranch owner took out a small transparent bag from his cloth bag and began to sprinkle chili powder on the mutton.
Monkey: "Give me some too!"
The ranch owner directly handed over the small bag of chili powder. When the monkey took it and was about to sprinkle it on the mutton, he suddenly stopped and stared blankly at the bag in his hand.
"What's wrong with you?" Qi Ruibiao looked at the monkey.
The monkey slapped his forehead and said, "Damn it! My brain must have been damaged. I only just remembered this!"
"What's up?"
"Brother Biao, I brought a gun and medicine when I came out last night!"
The small bag of chili powder that the rancher had used was similar in shape to the bag of medicine powder that Liu Yang had given him last night. The monkey then remembered it after seeing it.
Qi Ruibiao's face turned serious: "Where are the things?"
The monkey looked at the rancher and said, "Fuck! Where the hell did you put your stuff?"
The ranch owner was horrified: "Hey! Hurry up! Don't lie! I didn't see anything!"
Seeing Qi Ruibiao had already pointed the hunting rifle at him, the ranch owner was really anxious: "I really didn't see anything when I met him. He was just lying on the side of the road!"
Monkey frowned: "Damn, could it be that those four people in front took it away?"
"Oh no! Brother Liu and Lulu are in danger!"
Qi Ruibiao's face changed, "Monkey, bring the satellite phone over."
"good!"
While the monkey was looking for the satellite phone, Qi Ruibiao opened his backpack and took out a bulletproof vest.
