1413 Conquer, shine
It is not difficult to subdue the soldiers under Feng Liyou's command. All you have to do is show your ability to convince Feng Liyou and those soldiers.
The soldiers under Feng Liyou found a piece of wasteland near Beiling. The place was full of yellow sand and was not suitable for planting at all. No one lived there, so it was very convenient to hide the soldiers here.
Behind the wasteland are two big mountains. Between the two mountains there is a very thick iron chain. It is said that it was installed by King Fengli to facilitate marching. However, it was abandoned later because no one dared to walk on the iron chain.
"Qingchen, are you sure you want to challenge these two mountains? These two mountains are usually used for military training. There are many obstacles along the way, and ordinary soldiers cannot complete the journey. In addition, although the iron chain is still strong, no one has successfully walked over it for many years. It is very likely to cost you your life." Feng Liyou hopes that Feng Qingchen has the strength, but does not want Feng Qingchen to risk his life. If he dies, he will be nothing.
You can say he is selfish or shameless, in his opinion, these eight thousand lives are not as important as Feng Qingchen alone. To the Fengli clan, Feng Qingchen is very important.
"You want me to show my strength. This is the best and fastest way." Feng Qingchen said with a hint of sarcasm.
"It's too dangerous. There's no need to risk your life." Feng Liyou frowned. He felt like he was shooting himself in the foot. He didn't expect that Feng Qingchen was not easy to control at all.
"If it's not dangerous, how can I prove that I have the ability? Only by doing what others can't do can you be called a hero." If she wants to do something, she must do it to the best of her ability, and Feng Liyou cannot influence her decision.
After glancing at the hourglass, Feng Qingchen walked out first: "It's time, I should go out. If I don't show up, they will think I'm scared."
Feng Qingchen adjusted his wrist and knee pads, then strode out, completely ignoring Feng Liyou's muttering.
If she was really worried about him, she would not have allowed these eight thousand people to provoke her yesterday.
The standard goose-step made her look less coquettish and more masculine. If it weren't for her beautiful hair, she would really be mistaken for a pretty boy.
Feng Liyou shook his head and sighed, feeling quite regretful. He had not expected Feng Qingchen to be so competitive. This person was not someone who could be easily fooled.
At the foot of the mountain, eight thousand people gathered. When they saw Feng Qingchen appear, they were all quite surprised and their mouths opened into an O shape.
Is Miss Feng really here? She is so brave and courageous, and she is not afraid of losing face.
They thought Feng Qingchen was just talking, and they were just here to watch the fun. If they were just climbing the mountain, they could still believe it, but crossing the iron chain bridge was simply unbelievable, because no one among them dared to try it.
"Miss Feng, you're here." When the commander came to his senses, Feng Qingchen was already standing in front of him.
"Well. We can start now. Have you picked your candidates?" Feng Qingchen glanced at the five people behind her and knew that these five people would be competing with her today.
"I've chosen them. These five are all brave warriors in my army. It's just... Miss Feng, do you really want to compete? In fact, we admire your courage. However, as a woman, you'd better stay at home and embroider. Why bother to be so competitive? You have no chance of winning against a group of big men like us. It's not easy to make us obey your orders." The general obviously looked down on Feng Qingchen.
After all, they really felt aggrieved to have to obey a woman's orders in the future. If this woman gave up, everyone would be happy.
"Why not? Since you think that I don't have the ability to be your commander and am not qualified to command you, then open your eyes and see clearly today whether I am worthy or not." Feng Qingchen didn't take the other party's contempt seriously at all. He was neither proud nor timid. The corners of his lips raised slightly with a faint smile. He glanced behind him and confirmed that Feng Liyou had arrived, then said, "Let's start."
"Miss Feng." The general wanted to persuade her, but was stopped by Feng Qingchen's cold eyes: "A soldier's duty is to obey. This is an order."
"Well, since Miss Feng wants to humiliate herself, we have no choice but to help her. I hope she will accept defeat." The general was stunned and stood up straight involuntarily. Seeing that Feng Qingchen was unmoved, he turned around and said to the five people behind him, "Be careful, don't show mercy."
Feng Qingchen smiled lightly without saying anything, a gleam of light flashed in her beautiful eyes, so fast that it was impossible to catch it.
"Yes." Five people stepped out and nodded to Feng Qingchen.
Feng Qingchen is a courageous person. As to whether she is just big talker and has no real ability, it depends on her performance in the future.
Once the arrow is shot, there is no turning back. Feng Qingchen made a promise yesterday, and today he must do it no matter what. Although Feng Liyou was worried, he would not persuade her in such an occasion. He just looked at Feng Qingchen with concern and announced the start.
Feng Qingchen lowered his head to hide the mockery in his eyes.
Fortunately, she did not place her feelings on the Fengli people, otherwise she would have been covered in bruises.
"Let's go and take a look." Feng Liyou didn't think Feng Qingchen needed to cross the chain. As long as both sides couldn't do it, Feng Qingchen would win because she was a woman.
"Okay." The small leaders in the army could not stand when they heard this. In fact, they were also very curious whether Feng Qingchen had that ability.
Of course, they were actually worried about losing to Feng Qingchen. You know, they had talked Feng Qingchen down yesterday.
It’s not worth it. They don’t give Feng Qingchen any face at all. Otherwise, Feng Qingchen wouldn’t be forced to say that he wanted to compete with them.
If they lose at that time, it will be extremely embarrassing.
Feng Qingchen knew that her physical strength was no match for those five people, so she did not rush. She focused on stability. In addition, there were some obstacles on the way up the mountain, so Feng Qingchen did not dare to go fast. After all, she was not familiar with the road here.
Feng Qingchen ran forward at a steady pace on the path that had not been paved by previous people. According to what she had learned last night, she needed to run an uphill road of about five kilometers.
If it was a year ago, Feng Qingchen would definitely not be able to hold on, but after more than a year of training, she can easily complete the five kilometers.
She has missed the best age to practice martial arts, so of course she will not give up physical training.
The five soldiers running in front of her seemed to understand the importance of maintaining their physical strength. They didn't run fast, but at least Feng Qingchen could see their shadows when she looked up.
"They are ahead."
"It's incredible that Miss Feng followed us."
"Why rush? This is just the beginning. How long can a woman like her hold out?"
Behind her, a man's rough voice was heard. Feng Qingchen did not turn around, because she knew that it was Feng Liyou and his group coming.
It doesn’t matter to Feng Qingchen whether there is someone running with her or not. She only knows that she has to run to the destination, beat these five people, defeat these eight thousand people, and take back her own glory and power.
Five kilometers is neither long nor short. In the army, you usually have to finish it within 23 minutes to pass. But this is a mountain road, and Feng Qingchen did not hold herself to the army's standards, so it took her half an hour to finish.
After running five kilometers, there is a steep slope that you have to climb.
The five men were obviously veterans. They climbed up the slope with their bare hands, using the uneven rocks on the slope.
"Miss Feng, if you don't dare to climb, it's not too late to give up now." Someone behind her "kindly" advised, and everyone agreed.
"Yes, yes, Miss Feng, you can't joke with your life. It would be bad if you fall down."
Feng Qingchen looked back at everyone and said nothing, then walked down the steep slope. Her action made everyone no longer dare to laugh at her.
"Are they really going to climb up? Are they really risking their lives?" someone whispered, obviously not believing that Feng Qingchen could climb up.
Although this road is quite steep, it is not as extreme as rock climbing and one will not die if falling from this height. Under the incredulous gazes of everyone, Feng Qingchen half hooked a rock with his left hand, and leaped up with a little leverage.
"Did he really climb up?" Everyone's eyes almost popped out.
Clatter... Feng Qingchen stepped on a stone. The stone was a little loose and some fine sand fell down. Feng Qingchen didn't take it to heart. He climbed up with his right hand again and followed with his right foot. His whole body was almost sticking to the wall.
If it weren't for the fact that she couldn't use the Flying Tiger Claw and rock climbing tools in front of these people, Feng Qingchen's speed would have been even faster. She was able to climb out of the valley with Jin Ling on her back, let alone climbing alone.
Feng Qingchen has never been a weak woman!
“So strong!”
"pretty."
"Miss Feng is amazing."
"I can't believe that Miss Feng is as good as any man."
This steep slope is an extremely difficult challenge for many soldiers. The small leaders present also suffered from this steep slope during training.
Looking at Feng Qingchen, a woman, climbing up so easily, it would be a lie to say that I wasn't jealous, but this is real strength!
Although Feng Qingchen is a woman, her strength is there and you can't help but accept it.
At this time, everyone's eyes on Feng Qingchen had changed. No one dared to look down on her, nor did they dare to treat Feng Qingchen as a woman. Feng Qingchen was qualified to be their opponent.
"Has Miss Feng practiced it before?" Someone couldn't help but ask. Feng Liyou didn't answer because he also wanted to know whether Feng Qingchen had practiced it before.
If she said she had never practiced, then Feng Qingchen's talent would be too high. But if she said she had practiced, it would be hard to believe, after all, Feng Qingchen did not have the conditions.
"Follow him."
After Feng Qingchen climbed the steep slope, Feng Liyou and his men followed. They didn't have to climb, they took a shortcut and went up.
Although Feng Qingchen was agile, her speed was not fast compared to those five people. In addition to the distance they had created before, those five people left Feng Qingchen far behind.
Feng Qingchen was not in a hurry to catch up, but just ran up silently, and her speed was much slower than before. However, the few small leaders following behind her not only did not despise her, but instead looked at her with admiration.
After running such a long distance, even the few of them were out of breath. It was not easy for Feng Qingchen to hold on. You know, they didn't think highly of Feng Qingchen at all. They came here today with the mentality of watching a joke, but the current situation...
They wouldn't really lose to a woman like Feng Qingchen, right? That would be too embarrassing.
Several small leaders looked at each other, feeling quite worried, but then they thought of the road above their heads and felt relieved.
Although Feng Qingchen is not bad, she is a woman after all. Even if they are together, they may not be able to walk that distance, and Feng Qingchen certainly cannot do it.
