As soon as Zhou Wen walked in, the hall suddenly became more lively. Everyone greeted him enthusiastically, "Scholar, come back?" "Scholar, hard work."...
Zhou Wen also responded with a smile, feeling warm in his heart. What a kind person he is. He is loyal and grateful. If you treat him well, he will be willing to give you his heart. Such a group of people actually became bandits. They were all forced by the world. In my heart, I strengthened my belief.
His place had already been reserved at the main table. Zhou Wen went up to say hello to the master, gave Uncle Huzi and Uncle Wu a courtesy, greeted Gao Xiaoshan and Miaohua at the table, and then sat down next to the master. Today is the Chinese New Year, so follow the rules of the family banquet.
Wang Huzi was extremely satisfied and congratulated the old Taoist: "You are a good disciple taught by the Taoist Master." The old Taoist was even more happy and said with a smile: "Brother Huzi taught me well." The two of them praised each other again. On.
After Zhou Wen sat down, he waved to the red sleeves at the table next to him, which had long been looking at him. Hongxiu's family was arranged at the transportation team's table. Hongxiu didn't see Zhou Wen, but she was unhappy and had no intention of eating meat. After seeing Zhou Wen come in, she became impatient and jumped over and said, "Brother, Hongxiu wishes you a happy New Year." After saying that, the little girl looked at Zhou Wen with envy.
Zhou Wen laughed loudly and took out a small red silk bag embroidered with flowers from his satchel. He handed it to Hongxiu and said: "Take it, this is the New Year gift from my brother. I wish our Hongxiu family good luck and safety tomorrow." Hongxiu smiled so much that her big eyes turned into squinty eyes, and she happily put her bag on her back. On the body. Zhou Wen looked at her and winked at Lao Dao.
Hongxiu jumped up to the old Taoist again, knelt down and kowtowed respectfully and said: "Hongxiu wishes Master a happy new year, and wishes him good health and a long life." The old Taoist also expressed great comfort, pulled up Hongxiu, and praised with a smile: " Hongxiu is so good, and she has been practicing very hard recently. Master also has a gift for you today. Awen, come here too."
Zhou Wen was surprised that he was no longer a child, but he actually had gifts.
I saw the old Taoist take out a long package from behind, and after opening it, it turned out to be a short knife and a dagger. They all wore scabbards, and the old Taoist said: "Master, I have seldom fought with others in my life. When I was young, I gave the dagger I carried with me to Xiaoping. These two items were accidentally obtained by me when I traveled around the world. I don't know their origins, but they are very sharp. , I will give it to you today.”
After saying that, he handed the short knife to Zhou Wen and the dagger to Hong Xiu. Zhou Wen and Hongxiu thanked their master respectfully. Zhou Wen felt the weight of the dagger after taking it. He pulled it out and saw that the blade was completely black, no longer than 30 centimeters long, slightly curved in the middle, the back of the blade was more than 1 centimeter thick, and there was a blood groove under the back of the blade. The handle of the knife is about 15 centimeters long and wrapped in the skin of an unknown animal. It feels soft and delicate. A short knife with a total length of just over 40 centimeters feels like it weighs more than two kilograms.
Zhou Wen waved it lightly and felt that it was very easy to chop and stab, and he liked it very much. He then took the dagger in Hong Xiu's hand. The sheath and handle were made of the same material. When he pulled it out, he saw that it was also completely black. However, the blade had no curvature and had openings on both sides. It looked more like a miniature dagger. A length of 20 centimeters has a weight of nearly 1 kilogram. It looks like it is made of the same material as the dagger.
Hongxiu took the dagger and played with it, then lightly chopped at the corner of the table, like cutting tofu, and the whole corner of the table fell to the ground. The whole table fell silent for a moment, and everyone's eyes were so wide that they almost fell out of their sockets. What a sharp weapon, no, it’s not a weapon anymore, it’s a treasure.
Zhou Wen quickly put away the two swords. He was joking. Don't expose your wealth. Fortunately, only his own people saw it. Otherwise, we will consider murder and silence.
He quickly thought of changing the subject, looked at the empty bowl on Miaohua's table, smiled and joked: "Brother, the Dharma is getting more and more profound, and it has reached the state where wine and meat pass through the intestines, and the Buddha's heart is left in the heart. I am very happy and congratulated." Miaohua glanced at him sideways with her beautiful eyes and ignored him.
Miaohua had been feeling a little out of spirits since the last ambush battle. She just felt that all her abilities were of little use, and she actually learned to drink to relieve her worries.
Hey, drinking to relieve your worries makes you even more sad. Zhou Wen knew what was wrong with this senior brother, and there was no point in explaining it. He also wanted to use this to kill this senior brother's hidden pride and arrogance.
Miaohua probably doesn't know her own value yet. She is a martial arts expert, has excellent speed and reaction, is invincible with marksmanship within 100 meters, and is proficient in all kinds of tactical moves. Such a person has never been seen in later generations. He is simply a perfect assaulter.
Zhou Wen decided to train all the action teams to be assaulters. There will always be some battles that have to be fought in close quarters, and there will always be battles that have to be attacked forcefully. Even the investigation team has to undergo assault training. They are all young men with high martial arts skills and proficient tactical movements. They have plenty of time to study and train. The leader of the assault team must be, and can only be, Senior Brother Miaohua.
Although Senior Brother Miaohua obeyed his words. However, he lacked leadership qualities and was still separated from the other brothers. He only regarded his subordinates as students and disciples, and did not regard them as equal life and death brothers.
On the battlefield of the future, even small gaps will be fatal flaws. What's more, as a commander, if you can't integrate with your subordinates and cooperate with each other, you will live and die together. It will be a big hidden danger in the future, and this hidden danger will cost lives.
The key to this barrier is Miaohua's pride and reserve. Only by overcoming this, can Zhou Wen safely hand over the future commando team to him.
So Zhou Wen didn't think twice, so he picked up the wine jar and filled it for everyone. He toasted everyone with a bowl, then sat down and started eating.
After eating half full, people began to come to propose toasts, and Zhou Wen accepted all comers. Since taking Qi Jinjing, my drinking capacity has also improved greatly. No matter how much I drink, I will not get drunk. I have become a wine vat. I joked with Master Wang Huzi and the others for a while. Seeing that the master was also drunk, Hongxiu and Hongxiu helped him go to his room to rest.
After coming back, the old brothers in the hall all went back to rest. They were all elderly people, and they were allowed to drink again, but they couldn't hold it anymore. Let the Hongxiu family go back and rest.
Looking at the transport team, everyone is still sitting, no one is drunk. He nodded with satisfaction and said: "Brothers, go back to sleep after eating. You will have a day off tomorrow and start training in the second grade of junior high school. Dacheng will come for a while, and the others will disperse."
Xu Dacheng and Gao Xiaoshan worked together to move the main table to the big room of the regiment. Miaohua had already lit oil lamps and candles all around the room. As per the old rules, this is called the New Year's Fire and must be lit all night long.
The room was brightly lit, with a brazier burning in the middle. Old Uncle Wu asked people to put hot dishes on the table. Everyone sat around, drank and chatted slowly.
To stay up until dawn on the first day of the Lunar New Year, this is called staying up late. It symbolizes driving away all evil plagues and bringing good luck in the coming year.
