[This contestant tries to run away every day, but never succeeds. Why does he keep doing it every day?!]
[Haha, doesn't this look delicious? Every day we escape from the barracks, all sorts of escapes, big and small. I have to say, the food in the barracks is definitely better.]
Many looked around. The patrol team had just left, and this area was a weak point in supervision, but he still couldn't let his guard down.
He recalled seeing Zhang Ertian being captured by a minor leader to carry stone bags for strength training. Good, he shouldn't be appearing anytime soon.
It's been quite a while now. He wonders if that old man still remembers him. Maybe the production team will approve him as a doctor? Never mind, he can't think about that now. All he wants is to escape this godforsaken place, this labor camp. The inspectors are here; it's obvious war is imminent! If he doesn't run now, he'll never have to run again!
Every day was just drills, drills, drills. If you didn't train well or were lazy, you wouldn't get any food. They were treating people like animals. Not to mention the communal sleeping area filled with all sorts of unpleasant smells. He couldn't stand it at all. Dozens of people were living in one tent.
Not to mention Zhang Ertian, who sat upright on his bunk every night in the first half of the night, his eyes wide open, just like an owl.
This left him with no chance to escape, and of course, there were many things he didn't know. Zhang Ertian fell into a deep sleep in the latter half of the night, simply because his biological clock hadn't adjusted after coming in earlier.
Many were subjected to rigorous training during the day and then had to endure long hours with Zhang Ertian at night, leaving them physically and mentally exhausted. They had no desire to compromise with life, only to rebel!
Seeing that no one was around, many children scurried towards the fence.
As he ran past the last tent, he didn't notice a familiar figure squatting idly in the shade of the tent, a blade of grass dangling from his mouth, his eyes half-closed.
"Many?! You've also noticed that this place is cooler?!"
Zhang Ertian had just been dragged to carry bags when the squad leader NPC turned his head, and he ran off in a flash. He had been slacking off these past few days and had figured out all the routes in this camp area. The squad leader was outmaneuvered by him after just a few turns.
Just kidding. He used to get caught by the headmaster a lot when he skipped classes. He could spot which areas of the camp were cool and deserted at a glance, and sometimes he would sneak off to the tents where the equipment was stored for a nap.
It's just that the place where they cook is hard to get close to because there are too many people, and they all know each other.
Zhang Ertian felt a little regretful, otherwise he might have been able to eat a meat bun or kick it in the body to save for when he was starving.
Many cheerful figures turned dejected once more. Why is this guy everywhere?! I clearly saw him just now, he wasn't even around here! Is he a ghost?! He appears and disappears like a ghost! Or did we have a grudge against him in a past life?! Why must we torment him like this?!
Many people crouched down, clutching their heads, their faces covered in masks of pain.
"Hey, it's hot over there. Come over here, it's cooler here, and it'll be more comfortable to cry."
Many tears that were about to flow were suddenly shut off. Listen to this! Is this even human?! What do you mean by "it's cool here"?! Does it feel good to cry here?!
Much silence, much pain.
Zhang Ertian didn't intend to disturb her. After all, men don't easily shed tears, and since she was crying, he shouldn't get too close. Maybe she was just feeling down and would feel better after crying for a while.
After crying their fill and sweating from the sun, they turned around and saw Zhang Ertian leisurely squatting in the shade of the tent, casually swaying the foxtail grass in his mouth. Their hearts felt even more uncomfortable.
What kind of people are these?! They don't even react to someone crying?! Heartless idiots!!
Who are you?
Many people and Zhang Ertian looked over and saw a person dressed in a black robe appear in front of them.
When Zhang Ertian saw the other person's attire, he guessed that he was the warlord or something others had mentioned. Although he didn't know what a warlord was, he figured it was probably similar to a headmaster. So he quickly slipped away.
Many people were truly surprised that Zhang Ertian moved so quickly. The other party had barely appeared when he ran away, and now there wasn't a trace of him left, only Zhang Ertian himself. Wasn't he caught red-handed?!
Many people feel their teeth have been in bad shape lately, and their jaws have become more square, all from clenching their teeth every day! If he gets caught, he'll definitely implicate Zhang Ertian!! He won't be able to escape!!!
Many people may think this way, but they still take action; they can't just surrender and get caught.
"You're a contestant?!"
Many people paused slightly and turned to look at that person.
Xie Yanhua hadn't expected to encounter contestants in the barracks. Judging from their attire, these contestants hadn't been thinking straight these past few days, actually running off to join the army during wartime. He regretted speaking up earlier.
"You're a contestant too?! Thank goodness! Finally, a normal person here!!"
Many were so excited they felt like they could fly, wishing they could jump ten meters high on the spot. Just by looking at Xie Yanhua's clothes, they could tell he was doing well. Tears welled up in their eyes. Finally, they didn't have to hang out with that idiot Zhang Ertian anymore!
"Do you have a way to get out? I'm studying medicine, and I'm trying to become a doctor at Baicaotang. I've been wrongly arrested!..."
Although Xie Yanhua heard many of the rambling words, some of which were repeated, he still understood them.
Xie Yanhua never expected that the dark-skinned man in front of her, dressed even more shabbily than a beggar in the city, was actually a medical student. It was quite a surprise.
He looked the man in front of him up and down. Was a doctor really of any use here?
He now needs a spy to go to Zhao and find out why they lost the last battle and who the general who frightened the commander-in-chief was! He doesn't know if there's a doctor, but he definitely needs someone he can use.
Xie Yanhua's eyes gradually darkened. "I can let you out."
"Really?!"
Many were moved to tears; what a good person he is!! This is what a normal person should be like!!! These contestants should help each other!!! That bastard Zhang Ertian, who was watching him every day and preventing him from running, what kind of normal person is he!!!
Having already run far away, Zhang Ertian, who was squatting and daydreaming at another secret base, sneezed. "That guy is really slow," he thought. "I wonder if he's been caught yet. That guy is not simple either; he always manages to find my secret base where I'm slacking off. He'll probably be here soon."
The clouds in the sky are so white! Slurp, slurp, they look like a big chicken leg! I guess I won't get any lunch again. I'll sneak back to the training ground in the afternoon when the sun goes down and it's almost lunchtime. I'll pretend to train and maybe I can get a steamed bun.
This place is really nice. Although there's not much fun to do here, it looks quite different from where he lives. It's a bit boring to play alone, but there's plenty of other things to do. It's more fun to sneak away and slack off together.
I wonder how my friends back home have been coping these days without money? I'm actually starting to miss them a bit.
