At eight o'clock the next morning, Xu Jianguo woke up from his sleep. This was one of the rare times when he slept in. He sat up from the bed, stretched, put on his clothes, got up, took the washbasin and toothbrush, and was about to go out to wash up when he heard an urgent knock on the door.
Xu Jianguo was puzzled and hurried over to open the door. He found Wu Dajiang and Zhao Gang standing outside the door with nervous expressions, and behind them stood several soldiers with guns.
"Jianguo, are you okay?" Wu Dajiang asked.
"It's okay, what's wrong?" Xu Jianguo asked in confusion.
Wu Dajiang breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Why didn't you eat last night?"
"Huh? Oh, I was so engrossed in work yesterday that I forgot to eat. Then it got so late that I just went straight to sleep!"
"You little brat, work is important, but your health is more important. Eat on time from now on!"
"Oh, I understand!" Xu Jianguo smiled innocently.
It turned out that the orderly who came to deliver food this morning found that the dinner delivered last night was intact in its original place, and thought something had happened to him, but their superiors ordered them not to disturb Xu Jianguo at will, so the soldier reported to his superiors, and finally the news reached Wu Dajiang, which led to the scene just now.
Wu Dajiang looked at Xu Jianguo's nonchalant expression and immediately felt his teeth itching with hatred, but he couldn't get angry, so he turned to the others and said, "Alright, it's okay, everyone go away!"
"Yes!" As everyone left, only Xu Jianguo and three others were left outside the door.
"How's the translation of the materials going?" Wu Dajiang asked.
"It's okay, it's almost done." Xu Jianguo did not tell Wu Dajiang that he had completed the translation because he wanted to give himself a few days of vacation.
"Well done, keep it up!"
"Okay, Commander, I will definitely not let you down, don't worry!"
"Okay, go wash up, and then eat quickly!"
"Okay, Chief, I'll leave first!" After Xu Jianguo said that, he bent down to pick up the lunch box on the ground and put it back in the house, then carried the washbasin and walked towards the water room in the distance.
Wu Dajiang looked at Xu Jianguo's back, shook his head helplessly, and left with Zhao Gang.
After washing up, Xu Jianguo returned to his room, ate the breakfast brought by the orderly, and then put the lunch box at the door. Thinking that he had not been out for several days, he decided to take a stroll in the base.
Xu Jianguo did what he said. He put the translated notepad into his space, closed the door, and walked towards the stairs.
The Black Mountain Base is very large and has a total of five floors. The first-floor hall is where ordinary staff work, the second floor is the cafeteria and fitness area, the third floor is the base's defense force and ammunition depot, the fourth floor is the base's material warehouse, and the fifth floor is the core of the base, including Wu Dajiang and all scientific researchers.
Xu Jianguo walked and stopped all the way to the second underground floor. At that time, a team of soldiers was training on the training ground. He found it interesting, so he found a place to sit nearby and watched with relish.
Just as Xu Jianguo was enjoying the five-kilometer weight-bearing race, the shuttle run, the obstacle course, and the sparring, a familiar voice suddenly rang out from beside him: "Jianguo, why are you here?"
Xu Jianguo turned around and saw that it was Yue Yang and Xing Bin. He stood up and said with a smile, "Well, let's get some fresh air and change our minds. What are you two doing here?"
"Let's train. Next month is the base's annual competition. We were on a mission outside before, and now that we are back, we have to hurry up and train. If we can get a good ranking in the competition, it will add points for our future promotion." This time it was Xing Bin who spoke. Originally, he and Xu Jianguo did not get along, but ever since he knew that the military boxing he practiced was contributed by Xu Jianguo to the army, he was full of awe for Xu Jianguo.
Xu Jianguo didn't expect Xing Bin to take the initiative to talk to him. After a moment of surprise, he smiled and said, "Then you have to work hard and strive to get first place!"
"Jianguo, you can provide military boxing to the troops, so your Kung Fu must be pretty good. Do you have any special skills you can teach us?" Yue Yang asked.
"Well... yes, there is, but it can't be learned in a short time."
“Is there any quick way to learn it?”
"Really not. There's no such thing as Kung Fu that can be learned quickly. I think you two should practice harder."
"Well... okay then!"
It's not that Xu Jianguo couldn't teach them, but he felt that doing so would be unfair to others. It was equivalent to him helping Yue Yang and Xue Bin cheat, and the rankings in the competition obtained through cheating would lose their original meaning.
Xu Jianguo did not stay in the training ground for long, but said hello to the two of them and left.
After returning to his room, Xu Jianguo felt bored and slipped into the space. After a tour around the space, he found that everyone was working in an orderly manner under Fu Bo's management, and the newly built huge warehouse in the space had already stored more than half of the supplies.
Xu Jianguo did not feel his presence, shook his head helplessly, turned around and went back to the courtyard, walked into the house, took off his shoes, sat cross-legged on the kang, adjusted the time flow rate to 120 times, and began to practice Taiqing Jue.
As the technique began to work, thick white mist once again filled the well in the yard and rushed towards Xu Jianguo in the house.
Time passed quickly in the space, and two months had passed in the blink of an eye.
That day, Xu Jianguo continued to practice as usual, but suddenly a system prompt sound appeared in his mind.
