The others were cursing non-stop, but Zhang Junjie stood there in silence, looking dejected. He had hoped to perform well in this competition and stand out! But who could have imagined being eliminated on just the third day? This was such a huge loss of face. How would he face his battalion commander in the future? He didn't know why, but he suddenly felt discouraged.
Wang Yushu received Liang Yiyi's order and quickly emerged from behind the tree where he had been hiding. He wasn't going to be polite with those guys. Yesterday, their team was ridiculed by them a lot. The soldier who cursed the most saw Wang Yushu approaching alone and started to fight him without a word. Wang Yushu glared at him and said, "What? Can't stand losing? Don't forget that all of you are dead now. If you want to fight, I'll be there after the game is over. Now just be a dead man!"
The soldier from the Second Battalion's face flushed crimson at Wang Yushu's words. He couldn't throw a punch, but he wasn't willing to just let it go. He angrily said to Wang Yushu, "Just wait and see how I'll deal with you after the match."
Wang Yushu glanced at him with contempt, and without caring what he said, he went up and searched several people thoroughly, leaving no bullets or food behind. He put them all into his backpack, packed up neatly, picked up his Type 95 automatic rifle, and left.
Liang Yiyi had already left her hiding place when Wang Yushu left. It was exhausting to have someone around; everything had to be done in secret. It was better to act alone. Because Liang Yiyi hadn't shown her face from beginning to end, the soldiers who had been shot in the head had no idea they were being killed by a girl who had just arrived at the barracks for a few days of training.
Wang Yushu saw no one behind the tree where Liang Yiyi was hiding, only two sets of footprints. He sighed. He was a platoon leader after all, so how could he be reduced to running errands for these people, who, strictly speaking, weren't even soldiers? He was willing to do this, especially being by her side. He felt a faint sense of satisfaction. Thinking back to her wicked smile, he remembered that moment as if he had seen a flower blossom in its instantaneous glory! The mere thought of that scene made him feel hot all over, his breathing increased, and his heart felt like it was about to burst out of his chest!
Suppressing the strange emotions in his mind, Wang Yushu returned the way he'd come. When he saw the group waiting there, his mood had returned to normal. Liang Yiyi didn't elaborate on what had happened, only saying that those people had been dealt with. Zhang Juan and the others knew Liang Yiyi's strength and naturally didn't ask too many questions. Kan Jie, believing that with their platoon leader by his side, any problems could be handled, didn't ask much either. After discussing the next itinerary, Kan Jie suddenly said, "Do you think you're just going to keep going and reach your destination within seven days? Do you really think you're here for an outing? This is a competition, understand?"
"So what are your plans? Tell me what you have planned?" Liang Yiyi asked calmly.
"I... I just feel that with so many of us, we can't just not do something, right? This is related to the honor of the First Battalion. In the past, our First Battalion's assessment results were always at the bottom. The people from those two battalions are so arrogant, especially the two troublemakers from the Second Battalion. They rely on their own abilities and often come to the First Battalion to provoke us. The battalion commander always tells us not to pay attention to them, but this time it's a competition, so we have to try our best, right? Platoon leader, don't you think so?" For some reason, at the end, Kan Jie, who had a somewhat aggressive tone, lowered his voice.
Liu Wenliang and others looked at Liang Yiyi with burning eyes. They had been itching to do something for a long time, but they hadn't had a chance along the way. Now that someone brought it up, they naturally wanted to try it too.
While several people were discussing, the rain that had been falling for such a long time finally stopped. Liang Yiyi said: "Let's find a place to dry our clothes first, and we can talk about other things later." Although it is summer now, it is inevitable to catch a cold if you wear wet clothes, so it is still necessary to be careful.
Wang Yushu suggested, "We can light a fire where Zhang Junjie and the others took shelter from the rain. We can pick up some firewood on the side of the road and take a break there."
Soon they reached the naturally sunken mountainside, about halfway up the mountain. The path was steep, and the six men had probably already left. The mountainside was deserted. The task of lighting the fire naturally fell to the veterans, Wang Yushu and Kan Jie. Otherwise, Liu Wenliang and his rookies would have no chance of lighting such wet firewood.
The fire was quickly lit, but because the branches were all wet, thick smoke filled the air above the fire. Fortunately, after burning for a while, the smoke subsided, and several people took off their shirts and started to warm themselves by the fire. Thus, the topic that had just ended was brought up again.
Wang Yushu leaned over to Liang Yiyi and whispered, "I know that with your abilities, we'll all be safe along the way, but you can't protect them forever. As long as they continue on this path, there are things they'll have to go through. Should we let them go through hardships and go further and further, or protect them under our wings and keep them safe for the time being? I think you know better than me, right?"
The place was so small and everyone was sitting together, so no matter how softly Wang Yushu spoke, they could still hear him clearly, and the atmosphere suddenly became a little depressing.
Liu Wenliang's mind was in turmoil. He knew that if he said that he didn't need to be protected by a woman, it would sound a bit sentimental. But when he heard from others that they were protected by Liang Yiyi, he felt very uncomfortable. It was not that he was a male chauvinist and could not tolerate a woman who was stronger than him, but it was extremely aggrieved to be protected by the girl he liked. It seemed that he was not strong enough. He had to become stronger as soon as possible so that the person he liked could rely on him with confidence, instead of being the one who was holding them back like he was now.
Zhang Yuan's mood also became gloomy for a moment, but what could he do? To those veterans, they were not even rookies now. Although he had not relaxed for a moment in the past two months, the time was too short after all, and he also had to study. Compared with the ability that Liang Yiyi inadvertently displayed, he was a scum. But he would not back down. He had made surpassing Liang Yiyi his established goal. Only when he surpassed her would he be qualified to say those words to him. Fortunately, it was not too late now, and he still had a chance.
Liang Yiyi didn't know that Zhang Yuan had set her as a target. If she knew, she would definitely say, "It's impossible for my child to surpass me. You'd better go to bed!" Dreams can come true.
