Hearing that Wang Ke fell into the dry well, platoon leader Hu Zhijun's expression became much calmer.
Soon, the comrades from the reconnaissance class and the telephone class came back one after another. As soon as they entered the door, everyone looked unhappy. They were already very tired from work. After dinner, they went to see Wang Ke again and refused to let him go. People live. Especially squad leader Yueyang, he got angry as soon as he walked in. Wireless squad leader Huang Zhonghe babbled at him, "Look what Wang Ke caught for you?"
Squad leader Yueyang looked back and immediately became happy, and his tense face immediately broke out into a smile, "Did Wang Ke catch such a big snake?"
Wang Ke nodded. Squad leader Yueyang happily said to platoon leader Hu Zhijun: "I'll make up for my fault, platoon leader, don't be angry. I'll cook soup for everyone tonight." After saying that, he stepped forward, picked up the dead snake, and walked out the door. .
"Wang Ke, you eat first and see how I deal with you later. Let's go!" Platoon leader Hu Zhijun signaled to wireless squad leader Huang Zhonghe that they would go to the company headquarters to explain.
"Don't leave, I'm here. You, Wang Ke, are really unwilling to tire us out!" Bearded company commander Tian and instructor Ding strode in.
I was heartbroken when I found Wang Ke. I heard that Wang Ke was bitten by a snake and fell into a dry well, but I was very worried. The soldiers who followed the wireless squad to report the news came directly to the command platoon.
"Report to the company commander and instructor, I was wrong." Wang Ke lowered his head. He really didn't expect that the whole company had been busy looking for him for several hours. Wang Ke felt very guilty at this time.
"Where did you go wrong, huh?" Company Commander Bearded Tian originally said that he would punish this kid, but when he saw others, his heart softened again.
"I-I shouldn't have fallen into the well."
I feel heartbroken and angry. Why are I going to kill snakes while walking alone? Just hit him, and even hit yourself into the well.
"Hurry up and eat!" Bearded Company Commander Tian and Instructor Ding had just arrived at the door of the command platoon. They heard that Wang Ke had washed so many clothes and cleaned so many shoes for all the platoon comrades, and they had already forgiven him in their hearts. .
"Okay, don't let us worry about you anymore. If you fall into the well, if you are broken or bitten by a snake, it will be dangerous if no one finds out." Instructor Ding, who was standing next to him, added .
"Yes, company commander, instructor, I promise that if I see a snake or a well in the future, I will walk around it."
I was bitten by a snake three years ago, and once I was afraid of well ropes. The bearded company commander Tian and instructor Ding laughed together. This Wang Ke is really a living treasure.
At this time, squad leader Yueyang, who was peeling off the snake skin outside, came in and said, "Come on, Wang Ke, you have worked hard, and I will reward you with this piece of snake gall!" Squad leader Yueyang handed over a piece of fresh snake gall.
"Yes, snake gall clears fire and improves eyesight. You can swallow it." Someone muttered next to him. The bearded company commander Tian and instructor Ding looked at each other, turned around and walked out of the command platoon.
Wang Ke really didn't want to swallow this fresh snake gall. He had just swallowed the black elixir spit out from the toad's mouth, and the snake blood that he had accidentally swallowed into his stomach, which already frightened him. Could this snake gall be poisonous?
"Platoon leader, if any of you are willing to eat, you can eat it, right?"
No one dares to swallow snake bile alive.
Everyone present, you look at me and I look at you. At this moment, health worker Yu Deben heard that Wang Ke had been bitten by a snake again and entered the command row with a medicine box on his back. When he heard that there was snake gall, he immediately shouted: "Give it to me, give it to me. If you don't want to eat it, give it to me." !”
However, when the health worker Yu Deben saw Wang Ke standing there, he immediately changed his mind and said, "Wang Ke would be better off eating the snake gallbladder." A gentleman does not take what others like, and in order to kill this snake, Wang Ke I almost didn't get hurt.
Wang Ke was very generous, "Hygienist, don't be polite, just eat the snake gallbladder."
Seeing Wang Ke's sincere eyes, the health worker was about to reach out to pick it up, but squad leader Yueyang glared at him and said, "Health worker, you can't eat this snake gallbladder. Wang Ke is a calculating soldier and the brains of the whole company, so let him Eat, so that you can see clearly and react quickly in the future, so that our company's military training can reach a higher level. Just stay here and wait for the snake meat soup to be ready. Drink an extra bowl!"
When the hygienist heard that there was snake meat soup, he immediately smiled and said: "It is better to come early than to come in time. Well, Wang Ke, you can eat the snake gall by yourself. I prefer to drink snake soup! If you are stewing snake soup, add another A toad is even better."
When Wang Ke heard this, his face suddenly changed color. Did the health worker Yu Deben know that there were toads in the dry well?
Monitor Yueyang asked: "Why release the toad?"
The health worker said: "Toads are also called toads. Together with poisonous snakes, scorpions, centipedes and geckos, they are also known as the five poisons among the people. When poisonous snakes and toads are cooked together, it can be said to be a battle between dragon and tiger. And where there are poisonous snakes, there must be toads."
"Okay, okay, then let's go find the toad. Wang Ke, where did you kill the poisonous snake just now?" Squad Leader Yueyang asked.
When Wang Ke heard this, he felt extremely nervous, fearing that Huang Zhonghe, the wireless squad leader, would reveal the dry well. "Squad leader, what's going on now? It's going to be winter soon. Where can we find a toad? It's very rare to encounter this venomous snake today."
"Stop making trouble here, reconnaissance squad leader. If you want to stew snake soup, go ahead. I have a few eggs here. Put them in the soup to provide some nutrition to the platoon comrades."
The squad leader Yueyang of the reconnaissance team happily ran to the next room, set up two enamel washbasins on two kerosene stoves, cut the big snake into several sections, put salt and water on it, and started to light the stove and stew it.
Wang Ke here smiled helplessly, took the snake gall from health worker Yu Deben, and put it into his mouth. He knew that it was bitter because of gallbladder, so he picked up the teapot next to him and swallowed it with warm water.
Snake gallbladder does not have the same stench as snake blood, and after swallowing it, there is no more ice-like feeling. He didn't want to drink any more snake soup, so he quickly ate his dinner, then washed up and went to bed.
That night, he slept very soundly and didn't even have a dream. He woke up at five o'clock the next day. This has become a rhythm of Wang Ke's life. At this time every day, he gets up on time, first goes to the cooking team to fetch water, then returns to the command platoon to clean the front door, and finally gently takes out the entire row of washbasins and toothbrushes. , give all comrades a good face wash.
After all this work, it was just time to blow the wake-up call.
But today Wang Ke was particularly strange. All the comrades in the platoon were sleeping soundly. No one heard the wake-up call. Wang Ke walked into the room and saw that including the platoon leader Hu Zhijun and all the comrades in the wireless class, they were still Snoring slightly. Come out and have a look at the reconnaissance class and telephone class. They are the same.
Hey, what's going on?
Wang Ke first pushed the two squad leaders awake, then returned to the room here and pushed platoon leader Hu Zhijun and wireless squad leader Huang Zhonghe awake.
"Everyone is up, why are you sleeping so hard?" Commander Hu Zhijun of the command platoon shouted before everyone in the room woke up.
Platoon leader Hu Zhijun looked at Wang Ke sleepily, "When did you get up?"
Wang Ke smiled: "I just got up too."
"Isn't that right? The sanitation at the door has been cleaned. You bought all the face wash and toothbrush water in the row, right?" Platoon leader Hu Zhijun had already dressed and walked to the door. "Everyone, get up quickly and tidy up the housekeeping. You soldiers, you must learn from Wang Ke in the future, don't sleep in, and take the initiative to do small tasks."
In the army, officers and soldiers are accustomed to calling these good people and good deeds "small jobs."
Nietzsche said: "Gratitude is health of the soul."
Be grateful to your dearest relatives and friends, be grateful to all living beings, be grateful to this moment, Wang Ke feels that comrades in the army are like brothers, taking care of each other, and can not repay 10,000, but can also repay just in case.
A grateful person has a soft heart and a bright world.
Wang Ke smiled. Platoon leader Hu Zhijun often praised him in this way. In fact, every time he heard platoon leader Hu Zhijun's praise, Wang Ke felt a kind of pressure and a spur. There really is no other intention. I simply want to do more work for everyone. I am energetic and have the capital to do these small tasks.
Wang Ke picked up his washbasin and went to wash up, because he only had 20 minutes to tidy up the housekeeping and personal hygiene. The company will have a drill soon. After exercise, it’s time to have breakfast, and after breakfast, it’s time to go to work.
Today’s task is to go to the 1,000-acre hemp field to cut hemp stalks. Soldiers from many cities, including some rural areas, may not necessarily know what this hemp stalk is for. These hemp stalks grow as tall as a person. After they are cut, they are exposed to the sun for a few days, then soaked in water for a few days, and then the skin is peeled off. When dried, it is called hemp, and then the hemp is braided into a rope, which is called "hemp rope"!
After breakfast, the command platoon changed into work clothes. Platoon leader Hu Zhijun specifically asked the entire platoon to tie their cuffs and trousers tightly with ropes, and each person to bring a dry towel to stuff their collar, and a sickle, and prepare to go to the hemp field to cut hemp stalks.
Before leaving the house, platoon leader Hu Zhijun had sharp eyes, walked over, and pulled Wang Ke out from behind. "Go back to your room. Your mission now is to rest." Wang Ke had a high fever the day before yesterday and fell into a well yesterday. As long as he didn't cause trouble for himself, Commander Hu Zhijun of the command platoon felt that he was doing well.
"Platoon leader, can you let me go today? I'm so suffocated at home alone."
"No, don't even think about it, go back to your room!"
Wang Ke turned around helplessly and walked into the room. At this time, he felt very itchy on his body.
After his comrades left, Wang Ke took off his work clothes and hung them on the wall. How could he have any free time? He rolled up his sleeves and started to fetch water from the basin, preparing to wipe all the tables, chairs and benches in the room.
However, the moment he rolled up his sleeves, he was stunned. His hands were covered with many small rashes, and the skin was also itchy in many places. What was going on?
Wang Ke scratched it with his hand, and the flakes of skin fell off, flying in the air and falling to the ground like small snowflakes. My skin is very dry, not as greasy as it was two days ago!
Not caring about cleaning up anymore, Wang Ke went to the door and hurried to the farm health center. He wanted to have a look and ask whether he had so many rashes and lost so much skin. Is it a skin allergy or something he had eaten? Something you shouldn’t eat?
If he ate something he shouldn't have eaten, in addition to the three pills, there was also the black elixir and snake blood from the mouth of the toad he ate yesterday. Does one of them work together, or do they work together?
Full of questions, Wang Ke ran to the farm health center with his feet in two steps.
Opening the door, he hesitated.
