Chapter 117: The authentic jellyfish cloud was squeezed to the point of leaving nothing behind...
As the saying goes, when life is not going your way, have a barbecue.
It had been a long time since Hal had left the army and had such a good time. He held the kebab in his hand, the iron skewer was warm, the aroma of fresh lamb penetrated his lips and teeth, and he took a sip of beer. The fat mixed with the fermented barley gas was enough to make one burp pleasantly.
In front of him, the red flames were surging and jumping. The color reflected in his eyes made his originally dead mood jump up.
The people here accepted him naturally.
No one asked him how his hand was broken, only people asked him if he wanted to sprinkle chili powder on it.
When going to the bathroom, Hal couldn't help but pull an omega. In response, Nightingale simply explained:
"Because Bai Ling is also a disabled bird, we are all used to it and will not treat it differently."
Only then did Hal notice that Commander Bai's right leg was a prosthetic.
At that moment, he felt an indescribable feeling in his heart, a mixture of sympathy and indignation.
Hal knew that there were many birds of prey who were abused by the powerful like him. Before, this group of people also created a contact list, kept in touch regularly, and encouraged each other, for fear that one day someone would become depressed and commit suicide.
But gradually, everyone tacitly lost contact.
Because every time you open a group chat, it means opening the scar again. They won't be able to sleep well until the military dignitaries are caught.
From the desire for revenge, to the inability to do anything.
Until one day, someone excitedly threw a news link into the group chat: [Gram and his group are dead! ]
That night, disabled raptors from all over the world slept well.
Sitting back by the campfire, Hal lowered his voice and couldn't help asking, "It may be a bit abrupt to ask this, but I want to know, Gram, is it..."
Bai Ling smiled at him and admitted quickly: "I did it."
"So I got my medal back," Hal sighed, relaxing his body. After a long while, he said sincerely again:
"Thanks."
"It should be. I believe that anyone who has the opportunity to do so will help everyone get the medal back."
Bai Ling held the beer can, raised his eyes and asked, "What are you going to do next? If you have financial difficulties, I can help you solve them."
"No need," Hal shook his head, having made up his mind, "I am indeed being chased for debt, but I am not going to pay it back anymore."
Those blood-sucking worms are insatiable. Even if they pay off their debt once, there will definitely be another one.
Why should he waste himself and let them abuse him?
We should just fight back like Bai Ling did!
Hal's eyes were bright and he asked firmly, "You are just starting out, so you must need more people. I have been on the battlefield and have practical experience. When I had hands, I was among the top three in the team's shooting competition. Even though I only have one hand now, I can shoot with one hand by biting the butt of the gun. I have practiced at home."
I practiced at home.
Just one simple sentence expresses so much sadness.
Perhaps, before being forced into a desperate situation, the bird was full of hope.
Bai Ling smiled and said, "I was waiting for you to say that. We just need..."
He was thinking about what was missing from the team. Not far away, Nightingale, who was collecting empty bottles, fell flat on her face and started to sob softly:
"Ouch, ouch, it hurts. I can't stand up anymore."
Bai Ling's eyes twitched, and he said decisively: "We are still short of an instructor."
These omegas have strong willpower, but their physical fitness is still lacking. Especially in the desert, where dangers are lurking everywhere and the situation changes rapidly, Bai Ling does not ask them to carry guns, but only hopes that they can protect themselves when they encounter danger.
It’s best to run faster, the faster the better.
If you meet an annoying alpha, you can kick him back.
Hal followed his gaze and said with understanding, "Raptor-style training, right?"
"Yes." Talking to smart people is comfortable and direct. Bai Ling asked in passing:
"I haven't asked you about your ancestry yet."
Hal bent one foot on the wooden stake. When he tilted his head, the firelight cast a vivid shadow on his face: "Sparrowhawk."
Bai Ling smiled: "Oh, 'Forest Hunter', welcome!"
·
After dinner, Bai Ling said hello to the little woodpecker and sent Hal directly onto the boat for examination. If all goes well, Hal will be fitted with a prosthetic limb by this time tomorrow.
As the night deepened, the temperature in the desert dropped rapidly, and the originally scorching hot sand gradually became slightly cooler.
After finishing one thing, Bai Ling took a deep breath in the breeze, took two steps, took off his boots and held them in his hands, and walked along the soft sand, alternating between deep and shallow steps, to help digest the food.
When I walked to the other side of the boat, I happened to see two drunkards discussing something incoherently.
"This jellyfish...how can it get out of the water?" Sava asked with a thick tongue.
"Of course. Shoot it and it will be scared to death." The captain shook the rope tied to the jellyfish vigorously.
"Do you really have to use such a vivid expression..."
Finally, the two of them pulled and tugged, pressing the jellyfish into the empty water tank, as if they were stepping on a bed sheet that hadn't been washed for a year. Their movements were as rough as those of the maids in the Middle Ages stepping on grapes to make wine.
Sava asked in confusion: "Did we squeeze the jellyfish to death? I seemed to hear it screaming."
"I don't know. Do jellyfish make noises?"
"Yes," Sava said, laughing foolishly under the influence of alcohol, "calling 'Master, Master, I love you so much'——"
Bai Ling who was passing by: "..."
I decisively took out the terminal, recorded it, and showed it to them when they were sober.
The ancient jellyfish suffered, having its water squeezed out of it, and then hung on the side of the boat, twisting and waving in the night wind like a balloon.
Bai Ling watched for a while and found it a little funny.
Soon, small night lights lit up on the ground. That was the light in the tent, lit by the sentry on duty.
There are no trees to provide shelter in the desert, so such a large ship is obviously a sitting duck. From a security perspective, of course, a radius must be expanded with the ship as the center, and infrared monitoring posts must be set up at different points to prevent anyone with bad intentions from launching a sneak attack in the middle of the night.
Many of the alphas on guard are mercenaries from the capital planet. They are good at driving mechas, but lack field experience.
So before this, Bai Ling had strictly explained the rules to them.
"Don't doze off or play with the terminal while on guard duty. Report any situation immediately without hesitation. Last but not least, the night light must be on all the time. There are often wolves wandering around this area. Be careful that they sneak into the tent and gnaw on your ankles."
The mercenaries shuddered: "Huh? There are wolves too. That's a bit scary."
Bai Ling remained calm and said, "You will know in two months. The steppe wolf is the most docile creature in this land."
"Besides wolves, are there other things?"
"Yes," Bai Ling counted on his fingers, "Cobra, sandstorm, mud rain, shell fragments, oh, and radiation zone..."
A group of young mercenaries walked on tiptoe in cold sweat.
Bai Ling felt slightly satisfied, but he had to teach these young and energetic alphas a lesson. This will prevent them from losing their patience and running around in the desert, potentially losing their lives.
But he wasn't exaggerating at all about the Steppenwolf.
He had also seen some extremely cunning old wolves that would specifically come in and eat people when they were asleep. If it is discovered before it moves its mouth, it will raise its tail and pretend to be a lost Husky, with an innocent look in its eyes.
Sounds pretty cunning.
But Bai Ling sometimes felt that these wolves were much cuter than humans. After running so far on an empty stomach, what's wrong with suddenly seeing some delicious meat and taking a bite of its ankle?
He was sitting in the tent, daydreaming, when suddenly his ankle felt tightened, something like an iron clamp grabbed him and pulled him out irresistibly.
"Fuck!" Bai Ling cursed. How come this wolf comes so suddenly?
Sympathy is sympathy, life is life. Bai Ling kicked out without hesitation.
The thing was just as cunning as the rumors said. It dodged easily when it heard the wind, and even tightened its grip on his prosthetic limbs. At the same time, its upper body passed through the tent door and pressed him to the ground.
Bai Ling thought he would be bitten by the wolf's saliva-dripping mouth.
Unexpectedly, strands of hair fell down, someone chuckled above him, and he felt very successful.
Bai Ling took a closer look and said, "I thought it was a lost steppe wolf looking for food. It turned out to be you. You are not sleeping at night and come to flirt with me, Your Majesty."
In the wilderness, in the tent, calling out "Your Majesty" at an inappropriate time.
Yu Chen commented pertinently: "It has a unique style."
Bai Ling stamped his feet, took back his prosthetic limb from his hand, then stepped back and let him come in. But this old guy took advantage of the situation and told him:
"Next time you're attacked, don't kick, just shoot."
Bai Ling was both angry and amused: "Besides you, who else can sneak attack me?"
"That's not certain. What if it's really a wolf?"
"When a wolf comes, give it two bites."
"What about me?"
"...I'll give it to you too, okay?"
Bai Ling really couldn't do anything with him. She is already old, but she still sneaks up on young people. She looks so dignified and elegant, but it turns out she is just pretending.
The single tent used for marching was no better than the one used in the greenhouse before. This one was narrower and lower. The mermaid sat inside, immediately filling up every corner and edge, until the tent was stretched out into shape.
Bai Ling: "You are too big..."
Yu Chen had no choice but to stretch out his long legs a little and shake off the sand on his trouser legs.
Circles of wind blew close to the ground, and the sand turned into water ripples, like waves in the sea, stretching endlessly.
Bai Ling looked at the sand on his ankles, which was a slightly darker color. He reached out and touched it, and it was wet.
Obviously, this guy had just finished taking a shower and couldn't wait to run out to find me.
A mermaid is just fine, but she has to walk in the sand in the middle of the night, lacking water and covered in dust. Isn't this asking for trouble?
Bai Ling curled her lips and said, "Don't come to see me next time. It will be bad if others see you condescending to hang out with me."
Yu Chen didn't care: "They don't know who I am."
"Too."
Bai Ling couldn't refute, nor could he find any other reason to refuse. What can he say? Let Yu Chen stay in the boat and take good care of himself, and don't come out to accompany him?
The mermaid can definitely come up with a thousand reasons.
He couldn't refuse the first one alone. The other person said gently, "You've been out for the day, and I wanted to be alone with you for a while."
Bai Ling’s inner thoughts: Poor old fish with an empty nest, let’s give him some sweet treats to comfort him.
However, the next second, the mermaid took out her own pillow. The 200-count Tencel was incompatible with the rough environment of the tent, but even so, he could still find a corner to lay it out safely.
Bai Ling was shocked and said, "Are you really here to sleep?"
Something is wrong!
"What else, what do you want to do?" The fish smiled, supported itself on the ground with its elbows, shoulders slightly slumped, and approached him to talk.
"I thought you would at least have to eat a few bites since you succeeded in the sneak attack."
"Aren't you working? Pay attention when you're on sentry duty."
Bai Ling said hypocritically: "That's to trick the newbies. We veterans are used to slacking off while working."
As he said that, he openly put his hand on the mermaid's thigh and touched it. I touched it and felt it. Hmm... the leg muscles contracted and hardened.
Yu Chen looked at him meaningfully for a while, grabbed his wrist, put it to his lips and took a bite.
"Hey, you really bite people..." Bai Ling was talking when he suddenly saw the needle hole on his arm.
The mermaid's skin was pale, and even the sesame-sized wound was noticeable. Bai Ling could tell at a glance that the needle hole was new.
"When was it done?" Bai Ling grabbed his arm and turned it over.
Yu Chen said casually: "They gave me a shot of Valium."
Bai Ling was silent for a second, then slowly frowned: "Psychotic tranquilizer. Why do you suddenly need an injection? Didn't you always take capsules before?"
Yu Chen turned his head and said in a somewhat concealed manner: "Injections are effective quickly. And I don't want to take medicine."
"Don't want to take medicine?" Bai Ling repeated in surprise. Just as she was about to ask why, she immediately understood when she saw his unspeakable expression.
The medicine would make one blind, and the mermaid wanted to see him and didn’t want to go back to darkness.
Yu Chen smiled and said to himself, "It's hard to say. I don't want to take medicine. It sounds a bit willful. Especially at my age, I shouldn't have such a temper."
He should follow the doctor's advice.
But this time, he really couldn't get over it.
Whenever he thought about not seeing the bird, he would start to sigh and complain, and he wouldn't listen even when the doctor explained it to him repeatedly.
Finally, the woodpecker had to fulfill his wish and change the medicine. The injection is very effective and has many side effects, but there is only one good thing - he won't go blind.
At that time, he stood in front of the porthole, looking at the lights outside, and layers of double images remained on his retina. The light in the sand sea is like a lighthouse in the dark night, luring the mermaid's heart.
Yu Chen suddenly remembered a story.
Legend has it that there was a city called Abydos in Greece, where the young girl Hero and the young man Leander fell in love. The two of them were separated by the sea, but Leander persevered and insisted on swimming across the strait every night to meet his lover. And Hero always lit a torch to guide Leander.
Day after day, year after year.
Until a storm blew out the torch and the young man drowned.
As a young man, Isoparaiso could not understand this persistence.
To him, it was even a little stupid. For a short period of time together, they were controlled by their emotions to the point of losing their reason and taking risks every night until they were swallowed by the waves.
Not worthy of sympathy at all.
Now, he looked down at the needle hole in his arm.
He also became Leander, crossing the vast desert and running towards the light of his lover's tent at night.
Taste the taste of perseverance and also taste the body temperature of your lover.
"It's over..."
Bai Ling murmured to himself, thinking that this was bad, the old humanoid robot was completely trapped. But we still can’t mark each other, what should we do?
Bai Ling didn't know what was wrong with his brain. He pulled the old man's collar and forced him:
"Come on, bite me!"
Suddenly, bright car lights flashed past, shining directly on the tent, making the corners of my eyes hurt. Someone outside shouted with a loud speaker: "I am the special envoy of the Lord Landlord. I want Commander Bai to come out and see you immediately, otherwise -"
The neck was withdrawn and Yu Chen bit the air.
Commander Bai lowered his head and took out the shotgun from under his pillow. It was a very long shotgun. He kicked the tent open, knelt on half his knees, squinted his eyes, and fired a fierce and vicious shot outside.
Bang! He punctured both tires with one shot, with terrifying accuracy and without any negotiation.
The armored vehicle had lost its axle wheels, and it rushed out with sparks and lightning. Its front end tilted and it rolled into the cactus field, which was extremely embarrassing.
"Bah! Trying to show off in front of me." Bai Ling spat, pulled the bolt and changed the bullet.
Yu Chen: “…”
Good bandit, he loves it.
