"My God, this backpack didn't feel like it was anything at first, but now it feels like I'm carrying a mountain!"
"Where do you think the Third Prince came up with these weird things?"
"The training this morning was really exciting. I feel like going to the battlefield is nothing more than that."
"I have experienced war, and these training subjects can really help us survive on the battlefield! Everyone, cheer up and study hard!"
This marching team, without Mo Wen watching from the side, was chatting openly.
The content of the chat is all about this unique and special training.
"Stop talking, adjust your breathing rate and conserve your strength. We have only run fifty miles now, and there is still half the distance."
Li Kui reminded him loudly.
"The next tenth of the journey is the final test. Don't forget our destination."
"Brother Li Kui, isn't it Tianzhu Mountain? I've been to that place, it's nothing..."
A foundation-building soldier next to Li Kui said.
"Haha... you missed a few words! His Highness the Third Prince said halfway up the mountain! This means that we have to carry heavy loads on the last section of the mountain!"
Li Kui sneered.
"And! It's everyone! If someone falls behind or fails to meet the standards, the result will probably be the same as this morning!"
When everyone heard this, their expressions changed. They no longer felt relaxed as before and realized the seriousness of the matter.
"Everyone listen to me, divide into two lines, and keep the queue intact. When running, use nose breathing to coordinate with the running rhythm. As the running distance and intensity increase, the oxygen demand increases, and switch to breathing in and out through the mouth and nose.
Method. The lungs should be inhaled and exhaled slowly and slenderly, and the mouth should be slightly opened to exhale. Do not take a big mouth to breathe quickly or gasp out..."
Li Kui said loudly.
After everyone heard this, they automatically lined up in two rows and did what Li Kui said, and the team became orderly.
Two hours later, as the sun set in the west, everyone arrived at the foot of Tianzhu Mountain.
They were all very tired, looking at the last 500 meters of winding mountain road.
Everyone's faces turned pale and their legs were trembling.
"Let's go! Follow me!"
Li Kui shouted and started to climb the mountain road.
A team of thousands of people walked slowly up from the foot of the mountain. From the mountain, they looked like black ants crawling up.
When everyone reached the 200-meter mark, the weaker ones began to lose their support and fell to the ground.
"Brother, get up and try harder..."
"Brother, give me the bag and I'll carry it for you. We'll reach the finish line in just a little while!"
After seeing this scene, Li Kui turned back, took over his backpack, carried two load-bearing bags one behind the other, and then said.
"Two people, come over and help him walk together..."
Two people came out of the team and helped him walk up together.
"Thank you! I'm so useless! I've hurt everyone..."
The man was so moved that his eyes turned red.
"We are all brothers, so saying this is a big deal!"
"That's right! We are a team, don't forget our slogan! Don't abandon, don't give up!"
As time went by, more and more people could no longer hold on, and those who still had some energy stepped forward to help.
Everyone supported each other, and there was still the last 100 meters to the finish line halfway up the mountain.
At this time the sun has set and the moon has risen.
They saw the light of fire halfway up the mountain, and Mo Wen's figure was faintly visible.
Mo Wen was sitting by the fire, roasting a hare in his hand, which was giving off an alluring aroma.
The hungry and tired people were shocked when they smelled the fragrance.
They swallowed hard, as if they were seeing delicious food right in front of them.
They broke out, squeezing out the last of their physical potential. They rushed to the finish line with all their strength.
"Oh, that's good! You can eat now, there will be training waiting for you later..."
Mo Wen looked at this small team of a thousand people lying on the ground, swaying here and there.
He tore off a rabbit leg, put it in his mouth, took a bite, and then handed the rest to Xiaobai.
Xiaobai's two little paws hugged the branch, holding the rabbit in place, and opened his little mouth to nibble beautifully.
"Gulu..."
"Gulu..."
In the silent forest, there was a sound of swallowing. When Xiaobai heard the sound, he raised his little head. He saw thousands of people staring at the barbecue in his hands, and his eyes were glowing with a faint green light.
, swallowing saliva continuously.
Xiaobai's hair stood up in fear, and he hid behind Mo Wen with the hare in his mouth.
When Mo Wen saw this scene, his lips twitched slightly.
This was done intentionally by Mo Wen, because he knew that the last 500 meters would be the most difficult time, so he deliberately used food to stimulate them.
"You don't have to read it. This is Xiaobai and I's dinner. You don't have a share! Your dinner is in the heavy-duty backpack, which contains marching rations. Let's eat now! In a quarter of an hour, the new training will begin..."
Mo Wen said coldly.
After everyone heard this, they immediately opened their backpacks, looked for dry food, and wolfed it down.
Everyone who collapsed on the ground heard that there would be new training in a quarter of an hour, and they couldn't help but feel uncertain.
A quarter of an hour later.
After the meal, everyone took a short rest and was taken to two waist-deep mud pools by Mo Wen.
There are fifty thick logs in each mud pool, each of which is as thick as two people hugging each other.
"Go down, each group of ten people, pick up a log and put it on my shoulders!"
Mo Wen ordered.
"Li Kui doesn't need to go down, this kind of thing is useless to him! From today on, he will become my deputy, responsible for supervising you! Everyone else, get out of here!"
Li Kui walked out of the queue and was about to go down, but was stopped by Mo Wen.
"Plop...Plop..."
A series of sounds sounded, like dumplings being dropped.
Each group of ten people carried the logs and put them on their shoulders. The logs soaked in muddy water were twice as heavy as the original ones.
After the exhausted team of a thousand people carried the logs, their bodies could not help but tremble, and everyone gritted their teeth and persisted.
"Your Highness the Third Prince, I think these trainings are very useful to me, let me join them!"
Li Kui gritted his teeth and said.
"This is of no use to you. You have reached the Golden Elixir Great Perfection, and the potion in this pool has no effect on you. Besides, I also have other things to deal with, and I really need someone to help me keep an eye on them during these half a month.
, you can train with them during the day and supervise them for me at night..."
Mo Wen said softly.
"Potion?"
Li Kui said in surprise.
"Well! I added some ingredients to it, you will know later..."
Mo Wen smiled mysteriously.
"The water in the pool must be very cold now, so you have to move! Everyone, move for me and do squats! Shout slogans for me!"
Mo Wen looked at the people in the mud pool and said.
"one!"
"two!"
"one!"
"two!"
"Yes! That's it, hurry up!"
Mo Wen shouted loudly.
Everyone speeded up, and their bodies no longer felt cold, but warmed up.
[Author's digression]: I wrote the following tens of thousands of words with a heavy heart.
Looking back at all the past events, it seems as if they are still vivid in my mind.
This is a kind of nostalgia and a kind of remembrance!
My writing skills are still not good enough. I have been revising it repeatedly for a long time, but this is all I can do.
I hope book friends who like it can leave a ticket for "Gods and Demons" and give a ticket to support~
On the third day of the Lunar New Year, I write here to wish you a happy New Year! My deep friendship and blessings, my endless thoughts and greetings, and I hope you will be happy and healthy in the Year of the Tiger!
