Except Gong Xue, all of them enjoyed a sumptuous meal.
After Zeng Yingying and Wei Lan picked up the blisters on their feet in front of the firelight, they snuggled together and quickly fell asleep. When the soldiers saw that they were all asleep, they got up and went to look for Gong Xue outside the cave.
Gong Xue was playing with the hunting noose in the moon field. When she heard footsteps, she asked without looking back: "Soldier, why aren't you asleep yet?"
The soldier bent down, knelt on one knee on the ground, took out a bunch of things from his arms, and handed it to Gong Xue.
Gong Xue was startled, and when she looked under the moonlight, she found that it was the rice ball she had given to the soldiers before.
He actually secretly left half of it for her.
Looking at the soldier's serious look and the weird atmosphere around him, she rubbed her eyes and laughed, "What are you doing? Are you trying to imitate the marriage proposal scenes in movies and TV shows?"
The soldier was stunned for a moment, then laughed sheepishly. He scratched his head and said, "Haha... I see you haven't eaten anything... so..."
Gong Xue pushed the rice ball back, "I'm not hungry. You can eat it. You have to help them carry their backpacks tomorrow."
The soldier said in astonishment: "They...aren't they going to quit?"
Gong Xue smiled faintly, fiddled with the noose and said firmly: "They will not quit."
The soldier was doubtful and thought, this time the flare gun was given to them, how could she still make the decision?
late at night.
Gong Xue walked back to the cave through the mist, and found a cleaned hare and a piece of yellow stuff in her hands. She put the rabbit meat away, and then rolled the piece of yellow stuff into pieces with a wooden stick.
The powder was sprinkled on the fire.
After a while, the mosquitoes that disturbed people's dreams disappeared completely in the cave.
The soldier slept poorly, lying on his back and drooling while sleeping. Gong Xue knelt down and covered him with hay. The soldier mumbled something in his sleep, turned over and fell asleep again. She shook her head and put the hay over him.
A few logs were added to the fire.
When passing Zeng Yingying and Wei Lan, she hesitated and knelt down.
He helped them cover them with hay to keep warm, and put Wei Lan's legs down on Zeng Yingying's belly.
Looking at the two people whose faces were covered with mud and whose original appearance could not be distinguished, Gong Xue sighed slightly, "If the hardships in life are only limited to physical pain, wouldn't it be a kind of happiness?"
Shortly after she left, Wei Lan and Zeng Yingying, who were sleeping soundly, opened their eyes at the same time...
The next morning.
"Ah----" With a shrill scream, Zeng Yingying rushed out of the cave with disheveled hair.
The soldier was following Gong Xue to learn how to make a noose. When they heard the sound, their expressions changed and they ran towards the cave entrance.
Zeng Yingying fell to the ground, shaking all over as if she was greatly frightened. She pointed to the cave with a pale face: "Snake... there are snakes..."
snake!
Wei Lan!
Wei Lan hasn’t come out yet!
Gong Xue directly pulled Zeng Yingying up and threw her to the soldiers, "See if she is injured!"
The soldier only felt that his eyes were blurred, Gong Xue had already rushed into the cave.
A venomous viper with a thick wrist was tightly wrapped around Wei Lan's right leg. Wei Lan was so frightened that he didn't even dare to breathe. His round face was red and purple from holding back, and he closed his eyes tightly, not daring to look at that.
A poisonous snake with green and white flowers...
Judging from the situation, the poisonous snake has not yet attacked Wei Lan, who has lost his sense of resistance.
"Wei Lan, don't be afraid!! Don't struggle, and don't try to get rid of it...keep quiet...yes...that's it!! Don't move!!" Gong Xue comforted Wei Lan while using a dagger
Split one end of the stick and divide it into two branches.
This kind of wooden stick with a branch on the head is an effective tool for catching snakes.
In order to prevent the snake from being frightened and biting Wei Lan, Gong Xue used a forked stick to swing at the snake's head to attract its attention. When it relaxed Wei Lan and then wrapped around the stick and crawled towards her, she retreated suddenly.
After a few steps, she threw the wooden stick wrapped around the snake's body into the air. At the same time, she stabbed out the dagger with great force, cutting off the snake's head and half of the wooden stick in the air.
"careful---------"
"Ah---------" Dabing and Zeng Yingying happened to come in and saw this bloody scene.
The soldier wanted to come forward to take a look, but was stopped by Gong Xue, "Don't touch the snake's head, it is still alive." Although the snake's head was cut off, it can still move for a long time and even bite people.
, must be paid attention to.
The soldiers were angry at the poisonous snake for bullying, so they smashed the snake's head into a bloody mass with a big stone. After escaping from Shekou, Wei Lan lay in Zeng Yingying's arms and cried hard.
While they were venting their inner fears, Gong Xue calmly skinned the snake, which was more than one meter long, and threw it into the food bag.
Zeng Yingying pointed at her dumbfounded: "You want to eat...eat it?"
Gong Xue nodded and said without changing her expression: "Everyone is in for a treat. The taste of snake meat is similar to that of chicken, and its nutritional value is extremely high. It is the first choice for outdoor recipes..."
Zeng Yingying's complexion changed and she felt sick, and Wei Lan's face also looked ugly. After being helped up by the soldiers, she left the cave step by step, refusing to look back again.
The fully-armed Gong Xue stood in the morning light of the rainforest. The sunlight coated her whole body with a layer of gold. Against the dark green background, she looked so heroic, firm and heavy...
The soldier looked at her with a look of admiration in his eyes.
But Zeng Yingying seemed to have made up her mind and blocked the team's progress.
"I don't want to go any further with you. I'll quit here." She kept her head lowered as she spoke.
Wei Lan tugged on her sleeve and whispered to dissuade her: "There are only kilometers left, Yingying, if you persist, we will go out..."
Zeng Yingying shook her head and said weakly: "I'm different from you. I can't hold on for one more second... I can't walk anymore..."
Gong Xue did not express her position immediately, but pondered for a moment, and after thinking for a long time, she raised her dark and curled eyelashes, and looked at Zeng Yingying intently, "Tao is enough to forget things, and ambition is enough to rise and fall. Ambition, ambition depend on it."
Life is just one breath, and a person's life is also one breath. This breath can make you ambitious or discouraged."
Zeng Yingying lowered her head.
"With a firm will, you will give your feet a pair of wings, and you will not be afraid of the road no matter how difficult or long it is. Zeng Yingying, you are the son of a soldier. I believe that the blood of a soldier is flowing in your body.
And your performance along the way has fully proved that you can do it
, you can complete the journey with your parents' hopes!! Don't you feel regretful that you chose to back down when you were about to prove your strength? Don't you want your parents and instructors to see a brand new Zeng Yingying!!" Gong Xue
