Deputy Company Commander Lu Zeran was shocked by Wang Ke's demeanor and words, but there was one thing that puzzled him. Even if Wang Ke knew that he had this blasting tube, he didn't know that he was here to fry fish today.

Wang Ke didn't know what to say at this time. In a word, he didn't want to see Deputy Company Commander Lu have an accident, so he tried his best to stop Deputy Company Commander Lu Zeran.

If you can't talk about the scene you saw, then how can you persuade Deputy Company Commander Lu in front of you.

"Deputy company commander, otherwise, if you don't take the blasting tube first, you use a tree stick instead of the blasting tube, and you row the boat over and see what happens?"

Deputy Company Commander Lu Zeran narrowed his eyes and looked at the stubborn Wang Ke in front of him, "Okay, I'll let you take a look." After that, he asked the correspondent to get off the boat with the blasting tube, and he picked up a dead willow trunk from the lakeside. Get on the boat and row towards the center of the lake. After rowing for twenty or thirty meters, he casually threw the tree trunk into the lake, waved to the shore, and shouted: "Look at how you threw it, is it okay?"

Before he finished speaking, the oar broke and fell into the lake, and the boat spun around.

Deputy Company Commander Lu Zeran was stunned, and slowly broke into a cold sweat. How could a good oar break? If what he just threw was a blasting tube, he would definitely die today. He was surprised, how could Wang Ke predict this?

Fortunately, he finally reached the half of the oar. Lu Zeran brought the boat back to the shore. As soon as he landed, he hugged Wang Ke and said, "How did you know that the oar was going to break?"

"I, I don't know." Wang Ke told the truth. What he saw in the morning was just the oar falling into the water.

"Then how did you know that the correspondent and I were coming to fry fish?"

"I don't know, I just don't want you to..."

"You don't want me to die, do you?" Deputy Company Commander Lu Zeran took over and was moved. Wang Ke must have been sent by God. This is equivalent to a life-saving grace.

A true friend is not about rhetoric, but the hand that holds you at critical moments.

A true comrade does not lie in how much he usually gives you, but in his heart that always remembers you.

"Deputy company commander, Wang Ke had a dream this morning, and he came to find me." Health worker Yu Deben interjected next to him.

"Dreaming?" Lu Zeran didn't believe in ghosts and gods at all, but it was amazing to be able to dream of being in danger so accurately. But no matter what, what happened before him still made Deputy Company Commander Lu Zeran look at Wang Ke with admiration. "Okay, let's go back. No one is allowed to tell anyone what happened today." Lu Zeran ordered loudly.

A few people nodded and returned the same way.

On the way, whether it was the deputy company commander Lu Zeran or the health worker Yu Deben talking to Wang Ke, Wang Ke rarely answered him. He was absent-minded. He was so different, it was likely to cause commotion in the company. How could he be a soldier? Go down.

After bidding farewell to Deputy Company Commander Lu Zeran and others, Wang Ke returned to the mechanized farming station in annoyance. The command platoon had not yet gotten up. After Wang Ke finished washing, he walked to the cooking class and he went to help cook. Whenever he has time, he will come to the cooking class to help cut vegetables, wash rice, carry water, and clean up slag. Zhou Daguang, the cook squad leader, is also a soldier of the same year. He is a good cook and can endure hardships. In his second year of joining the army, he is now the squad leader.

I worked overtime last night and had two meals today. I have breakfast at ten o'clock, but it's not eight o'clock yet, so I'm just getting ready. Zhou Daguang saw Wang Ke coming and said, "Are you sick? Why come so early?"

Wang Ke was full of worries and ignored him. He first picked up the bucket and helped the cooking team fill the water tank, and then started to turn on the stove to help boil water. Looking at the red flames, he fell into deep thought.

What happened to you? How can I have some perception of the past and the future? Is it because I took the medicine yesterday? One of the remaining 7 pills was taken by the hygienist Yu Deben for study. The remaining 6 pills must be kept by yourself. You must not lose them, let alone eat them randomly.

"Wang Ke, the water is boiling, turn off the heat, pour the water into the thermal bucket, and come help us make steamed buns." Zhou Daguang shouted.

Wang Ke shoveled a few shovels of wet coal to suppress the fire, opened the furnace, and then went to wash his hands and fill him with boiling water. After doing all this, he silently walked to the chopping board, rolled up his sleeves, and prepared to knead the dough.

"Wang Ke, has your fever gone?" A voice came from behind. At some point, the bearded company commander Tian came to the cooking class.

"Report to the company commander that everything is fine. I will help with the cooking."

"I know. But you are not allowed to go to work today. You will have two more days of rest." The bearded company commander saw that Wang Ke's face had returned to normal from purple eggplant color, and the greasiness was gone. Seeing Wang Ke roll up his sleeves, the bearded company commander Tian added: "You don't have to help the cook anymore. You go back. When your platoon leader gets up, call him to the company headquarters."

"Yes. Company commander, let me and Wan Mian go there later. They haven't gotten up yet."

"Go back, have you finished the inspection that the instructor asked you to write? If not, just go back and write it." Bearded Company Commander Tian did not give Wang Ke a chance to bargain.

"Okay." Wang Ke put down his sleeves and saluted the company commander, then turned and went back to the platoon.

There are three classes in the command platoon, namely the reconnaissance class, the telephone class, and the wireless class. The platoon leader is from Qilu, his surname is Hu, and his name is Hu Zhijun. The leader of the reconnaissance squad that Wang Ke belongs to is from this province. His surname is Yue and his name is Yueyang. He claims to be the queen of Yue Fei.

Back in the platoon, no one had gotten up yet. Wang Ke tiptoed and took the washbasins outside the dormitory and lined them up. Then he filled up the water for washing his face and brushing his teeth. Then he went to the only table in the row, took out the letter paper and started writing an inspection.

What to write? Write about whether you should sneak back from the hospital, write about taking the wrong medicine, write about whether you should sleep in the haystack? Wang Ke didn't know where to start and couldn't help but turn around and look at the platoon leader Hu Zhijun's bunk.

Platoon leader Hu Zhijun was deeply sleepy at this time and did not feel that Wang Ke was watching at all.

Looking at platoon leader Hu Zhijun, a scene appeared in Wang Ke's eyes. An old man was holding platoon leader Hu Zhijun's hand and seemed to be talking about something. Wang Ke turned his ears to hear what the two of them were talking about. As a result, nothing was heard clearly. But he finally saw one thing clearly. The old man handed the platoon leader Hu Zhijun a writing brush. It seemed like he was being asked to practice calligraphy more.

Taking a closer look at platoon leader Hu Zhijun, this time the scene changed again. Platoon leader Hu Zhijun was standing in front of a square formation of several hundred soldiers and was speaking. I still can't hear clearly what was said.

Wang Ke shook his head and quickly wrote the inspection first.

Wang Ke spent nearly half an hour to finally write up the inspection. In fact, he believed that instructor Ding would not even read the inspection and it was just a formality. He knew that these company leaders liked him, and he must be a good soldier. His goal was to one day wear a cadre uniform like platoon leader Hu Zhijun. American General Patton said it well, a soldier who does not want to be a general is not a good soldier. A soldier who cannot write inspections is not a good soldier at the moment.

Wang Ke finished writing the examination and walked quietly outside the house. There was not much work for him to do at the tillage station, so he walked around the house. Yesterday, he told health worker Yu Deben that he saw that the current mechanized farming station was originally a stable, with a pond behind it. There were many turtles, eels, loaches and the like under the horse manure in the pond. Could it be an illusion?

You can't see anything from the mechanized tillage station, but if there are ponds and horse manure behind, there will definitely be traces. But when he got to the back of the house, he was disappointed. Looking from a distance, there are several trees planted behind, and under the trees is a vibrant grassland. Wang Ke was unwilling to give in, so he returned to the tool store, took out a shovel, and started digging around behind the house. After digging two shovels, I couldn't dig anything down. It was soft and felt like grass and sponge, but I couldn't dig it out anyway. After digging harder, I actually dug out a ball of cotton-like grass powder. Ah, it was horse manure!

Aren't you hallucinating? You can really perceive the past and the future! His brain was activated by those pills, expelling toxins? Isn't this incredible?

The horse manure below is very deep, at least one meter deep if you look down, and it is so wet that it is difficult to dig.

Wang Ke stopped and used a shovel to fill the hole he had just dug. No one must know about this, including the health worker Yu Deben.

Wang Ke returned to the platoon. At this time, platoon leader Hu Zhijun had already gotten up.

Seeing Wang Ke come in, platoon leader Hu Zhijun immediately sat up from the kang and said, "Wang Ke, has your fever gone? Yesterday, the company commander and instructor told me that you had a high fever. Why didn't you rest early in the morning?" What did you do again?"

Platoon leader Hu Zhijun also particularly liked the soldier in front of him. He heard that Wang Ke had returned from the hospital the night before yesterday, but he did not see him during dinner. He immediately reported it to the company commander and arranged for someone to look for him. After searching for most of the night, I didn't find it until last night. Company Commander Bearded Tian told platoon leader Hu Zhijun, "Stop criticizing. The seeds in this kid's head may have been burned out. The temperature reached 42 degrees, which is really scary."

Wang Ke put his legs together and stood at attention. "Report to the platoon commander that I am all healed. The company commander also asked me to inform you to get up and go to the company headquarters immediately."

"Okay, I'll be there right away. Don't run around and have a good rest in the dormitory."

"Got it, Platoon Commander."

After Wang Ke finished speaking, he turned around and left. He went to the company headquarters for inspection.

"Come back, come back, Wang Ke, what are you going to do again?" asked platoon leader Hu Zhijun.

"Report to the platoon leader and I'll go to the company headquarters to send it for inspection."

"You don't have to go, I'll take you there. Go next door and see if your monitor is up?"

"Yes." Wang Ke opened the door and went to the next room. Platoon leader Hu Zhijun and the wireless squad lived here, while the reconnaissance squad and telephone squad lived next door. Platoon leader Hu Zhijun felt that Wang Ke was diligent, so he let Wang Ke live in his house, which was equivalent to using him as half a correspondent.

After a while, reconnaissance squad leader Yue Yang followed Wang Ke in.

"Platoon leader, you are looking for me."

"Yes, Wang Ke of your class has been instructed by the company commander and instructor that he will not be allowed to work from today and will rest for a week. Did you hear that his fever reached 42 degrees yesterday?"

When Yue Yang heard this, he said: "Platoon leader, you are mistaken! This kid is like a monkey egg, running around, not like a person with a fever of 42 degrees."

"As much as you talk nonsense, just obey the order."

"yes."

"Besides, autumn plowing and planting are coming soon. I guess the company commander came to me to discuss setting up a commando team. The main thing is to have someone to stand behind the tractor and plant the seeds. This work is very dirty and tiring. I couldn’t even eat at the end of the day. I participated once last year and it was unbearable for normal people.”

"Platoon commander, we are all the elites of the company, let's push it to their artillery platoon!"

"Go away, is this what you said as the squad leader?" Platoon leader Hu Zhijun said angrily.
