Li Zheng was running along the road sweating profusely.
This is obviously a road, with a cement base and a layer of asphalt covering it, very regular.
He didn't see any cars along the way, which showed that this place was remote.
It makes sense when you think about it.
It is said that the end point is the comprehensive training base of the Blood Wolf Brigade. They will be stationed there tonight for three days of training, and then march back to the original base for the last two days.
It seems that these three days are the main drama of the entire Devil's Week.
He always felt something strange in his stomach. The caterpillars he had eaten at the meeting point always gave him a psychological reaction, as if the caterpillars were not dead and could move, and what kind of things were in his stomach.
Those who eat worms tonight will stay, and those who don’t eat worms will be eliminated.
Although everyone knows that if you don't eat, you won't be able to stay, but there are still some people who really can't get over their own psychological hurdles.
One soldier rolled his eyes and fainted on the spot after eating it.
It's probably not poisoning, but too much psychological rejection.
Some people choose to quit.
But those who stayed later received another portion of food each.
It seems that the caterpillar is just a test. As long as you eat it, you can pass.
That's fine.
This is how Li Zheng comforted himself psychologically.
Just like Xu Xian, who married Bai Jingjing, there will be no woman in the world he dare not marry in this life.
I've eaten caterpillars myself.
Caterpillar!
Something even more disgusting than a snake.
What else won’t you eat in the future?
As long as it's not poisonous, you dare to eat it, right?
He mentioned this idea to Fatty Wei as a joke, with the intention of comforting Fatty Wei who was vomiting colorfully at the side.
Fatty Wei is also pitiful.
He struggled in his heart for a long time, and finally gritted his teeth and ate it with a cruel heart.
Forced to eat three strips, Fatty Wei left the table with a livid face, found a tree to hold on to, and began to vomit.
Li Zheng comforted him, but he was angry.
Fatty Wei rolled his eyes and replied angrily to Li Zheng: "Shit is not poisonous, are you sure you can eat it?!"
Li Zheng suddenly became stiff as if his acupuncture points were pressed.
After thinking about it for a while, I felt that what Fatty Wei said made sense.
I am still shallow.
Just because you've eaten a caterpillar doesn't mean you can eat it if it's not poisonous.
This is a fact.
In any case, after eating the caterpillar, this level is over.
The next step is to run about six kilometers along the road. The second lieutenant instructor on duty said that after running six kilometers, I saw a gate on the right side of the road. It was a very new gate with the military emblem of Big Boss on it. It says XXXXXX Troop Training Base. Turn in and the sentry will let you through. Someone will tell you what to do next.
So, the first group of people to arrive at the meeting point began the last 6 kilometers of running.
From the first day of Devil’s Week, it seemed like there would always be an endless road to walk and run.
The grueling thing about this kind of training is that you never know what's waiting for you after completing a project.
You have run ten kilometers, maybe there is another ten kilometers ahead, you have marched for dozens of kilometers, maybe there are still dozens of kilometers ahead, you have walked a thousand meters, maybe there is still another thousand meters waiting for you.
This kind of pure stacked extreme physical test is often maddening. As long as there is a little bit of relaxation, the whole person's mental defense often collapses in an instant.
And these are deliberate arrangements by the instructors.
They just want to grind you, press you, punish you, push you to your limits, and see if you can persist at your limit without giving up.
The gate of the base appeared in front of them, and two sentries holding guns and wearing bonny hats looked towards them.
After one of them saw Li Zheng and the others clearly, he waved his hand towards the duty room and said something.
Roll, roll, roll——
The electric door receded to the side, and a spacious concrete road extended from the depths of the gate. Two rows of street lights beside the road had been turned on, illuminating the ground in a pale white light.
It's hard to see what it is in the distance, it's all hidden in the darkness.
For a moment, Li Zheng had a hallucination. The doorway turned into the bloody mouth of a ferocious beast, open, waiting for them to fall into the trap.
More than 20 soldiers from the special reconnaissance battalion had arrived, and Li Zheng ran into the gate amid the crowd.
The loaded sentries smiled and looked at the sweaty and tired recruits, just like hunters looking at a group of ignorant little animals breaking into the traps they had set.
"Keep running along the road!"
The corporal sentry pointed in the distance.
"Someone will be waiting for you there!"
His voice is loud, his words are clear, and every word is easy to hear.
Is there anyone waiting there?
Keep running?
It seemed like everything had been said.
But he didn't seem to say anything.
The usual joyful excitement when reaching the finish line during an armed cross-country trip did not appear at all.
Li Zheng looked at the people around him.
He saw Fatty Wei.
He saw Zhang Jian.
I also saw Li Qiman.
Everyone kept their heads down and ran, no one was happy, no one celebrated reaching the finish line.
Li Zheng had no choice but to run with everyone.
After running about five hundred meters, I suddenly saw a strong, majestic-looking man wearing camouflage pants, a fitness T-shirt, and a Bunny hat standing on the side of the road—perhaps an instructor.
He shouted to everyone: "Run down the steps and gather at the training ground below!"
As he spoke, his hand pointed to the left.
The team turned a corner again like a group of sheep driven obediently by sheepdogs.
There is a cement step with a step difference of about ten meters on the left side.
Hurrah and run down the stairs.
When they arrived below, they found that the entire training ground was brightly lit, and there was a very long parade road under their feet.
Another instructor dressed the same as before appeared on the lawn by the roadside and shouted at them: "Did you see the obstacle course over there? Run over there!"
Obstacle course…
Sure enough, an obstacle field was visible in the direction of the instructor's finger.
The obstacle course they had never seen before was completely different from the 400-meter obstacle stipulated in the outline.
run……
Carrying a backpack and a gun, he staggered to the edge of the obstacle course.
There is a long brick wall not far from the obstacle course, with several large characters painted on it - Be loyal to the motherland, surpass yourself, challenge the limits, and the hunter will win!
The words were bright red and taller than a person. There were two oil tankers parked next to the wall, and there were also a few people dressed exactly like the instructors they had seen before.
"Everyone come here to gather, stand in front of Qiang, and form a horizontal line!"
Before Li Zheng could take a breath, an instructor in his twenties, who was in his twenties and without any rank markings, gathered everyone together against the wall and asked them to stand up.
Everyone lined up nervously. You looked at me, I looked at you, and you could see uneasiness in each other's eyes.
Two instructors jumped on the "tank truck" and set up a water cannon. Only then did Li Zheng realize that he had been dazzled. They were not oil tankers at all, but two large water trucks, and the oval tanks on the carriages were water tanks. .
"Lie to Kangxi"
"them……"
Fatty Wei felt that something was wrong, but before he could finish his words, a powerful water column swept over him and pushed him two or three meters away, hitting him directly against the wall.
Then, the two water dragons continuously swept over each soldier.
The instructor stood by the car and shouted: "Welcome to the hunter base. Our place is also called the beast camp. You guys stink too much. I don't like it. I'll help you take a bath first! Stand still, don't lie on the ground." , whoever dares to lie down, I will keep spraying on him and won’t stop!”
bath?
It was the first time that Li Zheng saw someone using a high-pressure water gun to take a shower.
The temperature here at night is no higher than last night during the cold resistance training, or even lower.
I had just finished a six-kilometer run and my whole body was feeling warm when suddenly cold water poured down on my body. It felt like a world of ice and fire, hot inside and cold outside.
The scariest thing is that the impact of the water jet is so great that anyone it hits will fall to the ground. You must get up immediately, otherwise the instructor will keep spraying you with a water gun.
"Hold hands! Help each other! Where is your spirit of cooperation? Didn't your unit's platoon leader and squad leader teach you to cooperate? Do you know what the special forces focus on? Cooperation! We are not Rambo, not in the old American movies The devil commander, there is no Rambo in the world, Rambo is in the grave, the only survivors are real soldiers, soldiers who can cooperate!"
The instructor's words reminded everyone. Everyone quickly linked arms, shifted their weight forward, and lunged forward. Whoever the water column hit, the people next to them would hold their arms to share the momentum.
The situation became much better at this time. Although some were knocked down, they quickly stood up with the help of their comrades.
When a person is tortured to the extreme, he will release an indescribable pleasure.
For two days, I slept for less than eight hours. I ran more than 100 kilometers, walked through mountains and valleys, walked through swamps and muddy fields, and ran for another 20 kilometers. I squatted in an irrigation canal in the wilderness. overnight.
Now, I was standing in front of a high wall in an unknown base again, being slapped with high-pressure water cannons by a group of lunatic instructors.
Li Zheng felt that in his first twenty-one years of life, except for the few days when he was crushed under the rubble, the rest of his experiences were not as happy and complicated as today.
"Cool!"
He yelled, using up all his strength to let out all the emotions he was holding in his chest.
When he shouted, others were infected.
So, when the first domino falls, there will be the second one.
Fatty Wei shouted: "It's cool!"
Zhang Jian also shouted: "It's cool!"
Li Qiman couldn't hold it in any longer: "It's so cool!"
The instructors were stunned for a moment. They didn't expect that the stupid young people in front of them would still be so heroic at this time.
So he sneered and said: "Okay! It's great, isn't it! Then it will be great again! Tonight you have to run the hunter obstacle behind me ten times, and then you can go back to sleep! If you can't finish it, just keep running until it is completed. !”
