No one is willing to die, and Xia Yuan is no exception, but if he is needed, he will still choose to sacrifice.
One's sacrifice depends on its worthiness.
Private Room No. 3 of Huayu Hotel.
Xia Yuan knocked on the door, and a soft voice came from inside.
"Enter."
Xia Yuan opened the door and turned on the heater in the private room. What he saw was a petite but very handsome girl wearing a white turtleneck sweater with shawl long hair. She had light makeup on her face, big eyes, and a small nose and mouth.
, with upright and straight facial features, looking very beautiful under the bright light. There is a down jacket on the stool next to her.
He was sizing up the girl, and the girl was sizing up at him.
"Hello, my name is Pei Shanshan." The girl spoke first, stood up and said in a graceful manner.
"Hello, my name is Xia Yuan."
Blind date is about the first sight. If you don't like it at first sight, no matter how hard you try later, it will be in vain.
Pei Shanshan has a good impression of Xia Yuan. She is tall, not very handsome, but very good-looking. Her thick eyebrows and big eyes, plus her height of 1.85 meters, add a lot of points. Coupled with the slim-fitting black windbreaker, she will
Set off by height.
Xia Yuan also had a good impression of Pei Shanshan. When he saw her, he stood up to say hello. It was obvious that Pei Shanshan's tutor was also very good.
Xia Yuan closed the door and sat opposite Pei Shanshan.
After sitting down, Pei Shanshan quickly brought a glass of water to Xia Yuan and handed it to him with both hands: "It must be cold along the way. Drink some hot tea to warm yourself up."
"Thanks."
Xia Yuan stretched out his hands to catch it and was about to drink it when Pei Shanshan reminded again: "Be careful, it's a bit hot."
Xia Yuan smiled and nodded, blew lightly and took a small sip.
Then he asked: "Have you ordered?"
Pei Shanshan shook her head: "I don't know what kind of food you like to eat, so I didn't order it. I wanted to wait until you come to order."
"Then just order it, I actually don't have any taboos."
Xia Yuan smiled and said, "What about you, do you have any taboo foods?"
Pei Shanshan said: "I don't have any, I can eat anything."
Xia Yuan called the waiter over, ordered three dishes, and handed the menu to Pei Shanshan. Pei Shanshan only ordered a sweet soup.
Xia Yuan asked her: "Would you like to order more?"
Pei Shanshan smiled sweetly, with two shallow dimples showing on her face, and said, "No, it will be wasted if you order too much and can't finish it."
Xia Yuan stopped worrying. While waiting for the food to be served, the two of them drank tea and chatted. Pei Shanshan suddenly said: "Xia Yuan, please add your contact information."
Xia Yuan nodded. He had no objection to the girl in front of him. He had a pretty good impression. She was generous and polite, which could be seen from some details.
After adding the contact information, Xia Yuan took a brief look at Pei Shanshan's space. They were filled with photos of food and life. She was a girl who loved to laugh.
Xia Yuan's space is mostly filled with photos of martial arts training. In the photos, Xia Yuan is sunny and handsome, with an outstanding figure, which makes Xia Yuan even more popular in Pei Shanshan's heart.
Pei Shanshan asked him: "Xia Yuan, I heard from my third uncle that you practice martial arts. Is it just like the martial arts on TV?"
Ordinary people only have a superficial understanding of martial arts, and martial arts schools only teach a routine. Once these routines are practiced proficiently, there will be no problem against three or five people.
As the son of his father and the successor of the martial arts school in the future, the training items are not ordinary routines. What he is exposed to are real killing moves. He still remembers that when he was a child, in addition to Zamabu, he also knew the acupuncture points of the human body and knew which ones of the human body.
Acupuncture points can be touched, which human acupuncture points cannot be touched, which human acupuncture points will cause trouble if touched, which human acupuncture points will cause no trouble if touched, etc.
In addition to these, you also need to learn the law, especially legitimate defense, what is considered legitimate defense, what is excessive defense, etc.
Xia Yuan smiled and said: "Those things on TV are all artistically processed. In addition to some routines, real martial arts pays attention to speed, accuracy and ruthlessness. After all, the longer the fight lasts, the greater the impact on one's own physical strength."
A huge test, if you can kill the enemy with one move, you will basically kill the enemy with one move."
During the war to resist U.S. aggression and aid Korea, the move I used was to kill the enemy with one move. I rarely used two or three moves. I basically rushed forward with one lunge and relied on my own powerful strength to defeat the enemy with one move.
Xia Yuan's words seemed to open the door to a new world for Pei Shanshan.
Pei Shanshan looked at Xia Yuan with admiration: "Then are you very powerful?"
Xia Yuan shook his head: "It's not great, I just know some kung fu, and this is a peaceful era, so we don't pay attention to fighting and killing."
In that war-torn era, learning martial arts was for self-protection. In peaceful times, learning martial arts was just to keep improving the martial arts.
Pei Shanshan nodded: "Yes, the security is getting better and better now, and it is rare to encounter chaos."
But this does not affect Pei Shanshan's admiration for Xia Yuan, because looking at Xia Yuan's Moments, there are videos of Xia Yuan practicing martial arts, and he looks very handsome.
During the meal, the two of them chatted about each other. Pei Shanshan took some food for Xia Yuan and said with a sweet smile: "Practicing martial arts must consume a lot of energy. Eat more."
Xia Yuan smiled and said: "It's okay. Now that the New Year is over, I basically don't practice much. I won't start exercising until after the New Year."
After a pause, he said again: "Thank you."
He also gave Pei Shanshan some food and said with a smile: "Eat more, you will lose weight."
Pei Shanshan pouted, "No way, I'm already ninety-seven, and I'll be a hundred soon."
Although she said so, she still finished the food Xia Yuan gave him. While eating, she peeked at Xia Yuan. Seeing Xia Yuan looking over, she quickly lowered her head, her heart pounding like a deer.
Xia Yuan was eating and asked her again: "By the way, how old are you."
"twenty two."
"So small?"
"You're not young, you can get married at the age of 22."
Xia Yuan raised his head and glanced at Pei Shanshan. It seemed that Pei Shanshan also realized that something was wrong with what he said. Her face turned red and she almost buried her head in the bowl, not daring to look at Xia Yuan.
Xia Yuan smiled, said no more, took a sip of soup, wiped his hands and mouth with paper, and said, "You eat first, I'll go to the toilet."
"oh."
After Xia Yuan left, Pei Shanshan quickly fanned her face with her hands and kept breathing out, her bangs sticking to her forehead.
"It's so hot, oh, it's so embarrassing."
After thinking about what she had just said, Pei Shanshan wanted to find a crack in the ground and crawl into it. She turned on her phone and quickly sent a message to her best friend.
My best friends are already in a frenzy and keep asking, "Have you seen me?" almost every two minutes.
Pei Shanshan replied to her best friend: I met him. He is a handsome guy. He is good-looking and has a good figure. He is 1.85 meters tall.
She downloaded a picture of Xia Yuan practicing martial arts from Xia Yuan's space and sent it to her best friend.
In the photo, Xia Yuan is standing in the sun, with his upper body bare, his muscles well-proportioned, his hands intertwined facing the wooden stake man, his face resolute, especially his eyes, which are bright and lively. Xia Yuan is good-looking, very good-looking, and even
A bit handsome.
After reading it, my best friend shouted: Shanshan, you found a treasure! Try to win it!
Pei Shanshan's face felt hot: Go, shameless.
My best friend replied: (smiling evilly) I’m shameless, give it to me.
Pei Shanshan replied to her: (Tsundere) No, I've already fallen in love with her. But I still have to be more reserved.
Best Friend: Oh, be reserved. You can’t eat a man who is reserved. If you don’t take the initiative, someone else will snatch him away from you sooner or later. Try to get him within three days.
Best friends: A man chases a girl, separated by a mountain; a girl chases a boy, separated by a layer of gauze.
Pei Shanshan: I don’t know much about him yet. I still have to learn more about his life and what he likes. But he has a very good character. He comes from a martial arts family and has a good tutor.
Best Friend: (Color) From a martial arts family, can you handle it with your small body?
Pei Shanshan: (angry) What are you thinking!
Best friend: (Gotou) is a martial arts practitioner after all, so his core must be very strong. He can fight three or five of them with no problem, let alone a weak woman like you, so I’ll be careful to drain you dry.
Pei Shanshan:???I don’t understand what you are talking about.
Pei Shanshan: I won’t tell you anymore, he will be back soon.
Best friend: Tsk, I forget my true love. When will you try it, let me know how it feels.
Pei Shanshan: (Shut up) Then talk about blocking me.
Best Friend: I won't tell you anymore... I have also fallen in love with a man recently, and I have caught up with him. I will teach you my experience.
Pei Shanshan: (Tsundere) No need.
Best friend: Tsk~
Putting down the phone, Pei Shanshan patted her face, which felt hot. Her best friend's words were like a spell, lingering in her mind.
On the other side, Xia Yuan finished using the toilet, washed his hands and went to pay the bill. Unexpectedly, the lady at the front desk said: "Sir, there is no need to pay for the private room No. 3."
Xia Yuan was stunned for a moment and asked in surprise: "Why don't you pay the bill?"
The lady at the front desk said: "Sir, Miss Pei has already bought it."
"Yeah?"
Xia Yuan had some doubts in his mind, but he still put away his wallet and turned back to the private room.
When Pei Shanshan saw Xia Yuan coming in, she quickly put down her phone, which was playing a video of Xia Yuan practicing martial arts.
Not sure if it was an illusion, Xia Yuan saw Pei Shanshan's face was very red, and he asked: "Why is your face so red? Is the heater turned on too hot?"
Pei Shanshan blushed even more, shook her head and said, "No, no, I just ate a chili pepper and I choked. I'll drink some water. Just drink some water and it'll be fine."
After saying that, she took a glass of warm water and drank it in small sips. After a few sips, she felt much better.
Xia Yuan said "Oh" and stopped talking, then picked up a glass of water and drank it.
Pei Shanshan carefully peeked at Xia Yuan and saw that Xia Yuan's eyes were thoughtful. After thinking about it, she asked, "How is your food?"
Xia Yuan raised his head and said, "Not bad, I'm full."
He also asked: "What about you?"
Pei Shanshan nodded: "I've eaten too."
After saying that, there was silence, and the atmosphere was a little awkward for a while. Both of them drank water in small sips.
Pei Shanshan pursed her lips and wanted to say go for a walk, but in her heart she wondered if this would be disrespectful.
The words of my best friend came to mind again, 'Be reserved, and you can't be eaten by being reserved.' 'Such a good man will be snatched away by others sooner or later if you don't take the initiative.'
She plucked up her courage and said, "After dinner, why don't you go for a walk?"
After saying this, it was as if all the strength in her body had been exhausted. She could even feel her heart beating violently, as if it was about to jump out of her throat at any time. After finishing speaking, Xia Yuan did not say a word for a long time.
, my mind started to think wildly.
Xia Yuan looked at the girl in front of him. In fact, he was also struggling in his heart. On the one hand, he was doing tasks in one world after another, and he was afraid that he would not be able to give the girl in front of him the life she wanted. He might even never come back after his death.
On the one hand, he does have a crush on the girl in front of him. After all, she is good in all aspects, looks good, and has a good tutor.
After hesitating again and again, Xia Yuan nodded: "Let's go out for a walk and just take it for granted."
Hearing that Xia Yuan agreed, Pei Shanshan was wrapped in a huge surprise, and her face turned red with excitement. She picked up her bag and put on her down jacket, and said happily: "Then let's go."
Thousands of lights are on, and the New Year atmosphere in the city is quite good. Red lanterns are hung in front of many shops. There are also many couples on the street. It is estimated that many of them met their parents this year. Their faces are filled with happiness.
smiling, cars passing by on the streets, and brightly lit lights among the high-rise buildings.
City life is compact yet loose.
Some people are fighting against the wind and waves in the city's ocean, while others are enjoying the sun on the city's lake.
Everyone's life situation is different.
Xia Yuan and Pei Shanshan were walking on both sides of the street, with a distance of thirty centimeters between them, talking and laughing. Xia Yuan found that Pei Shanshan was well-educated and could answer any questions calmly. Even if he asked her about things during the Anti-Japanese War, she still said
It's clear and logical.
"It was a very difficult era. They took a road that our generation could not imagine. If the road we take now is compared to a tarmac road on a traffic line, the road they took is covered with nails, and every step they take is covered with bruises.
It’s not about when Tao will die.”
Her metaphor was very appropriate. Xia Yuan felt novel when he heard it. He carefully recalled the Changjin Lake and Shangganling experiences he had already experienced, just as he said.
The seemingly bright and open road is full of nails, and every step taken is a huge test of blood and flesh. It was under such difficult circumstances that that generation passed through the road full of nails, which brought our generation to a standstill.
It was delivered to a spacious asphalt road without nails.
For a time, Xia Yuan's favorable impression of Pei Shanshan improved a bit.
Then he asked another question that was very strange to Pei Shanshan.
"If you traveled to that world, would you take this path?"
Pei Shanshan felt a little funny, how could such a thing happen, but she also fell into thinking, if she traveled to that world, would she take this path?
There is no doubt that it will.
She raised her head and said: "I think I will take this road. When the country is in crisis and life and death are at stake, we have to take this road. It is not up to us. Each generation shoulders different challenges.
Mission, maybe people of that era shouldered the mission of saving the country."
"And our generation shoulders the mission of revitalizing China."
