Chapter 11 The Chosen One
Pang Ao has never seen such a group of people who are so greedy for life and afraid of death. A manly man joins the army to serve the country and makes achievements in life. He can't wait to go to the battlefield and kill more enemy generals. The Huotou Army is looked down upon in the camp.
But these people are vying to be the leader of the fire!
He was so angry that his lungs hurt, and he shouted: "Cowards! A bunch of cowards!"
"You..." He pointed at everyone, his fingers trembling: "Run around the mountain in one stick of incense, and if you exceed the time, you will be beaten with twenty military sticks!"
…
Bai Qilang was panting and wiping sweat, and the powder on his face was already mottled.
"Does General Pang want to train us to become divine generals? It depends on whether we are the material or not!"
Zhuang Wan was out of breath from exhaustion: "No, he just doesn't like us!"
She could already see in Pang Ao's eyes that he wanted to give up on them, which made her very happy, even if she was running with twenty kilograms of stones on her back.
Chen Wujin was sweating like rain. Looking at Yan Cheng, who was riding ahead of him with great briskness, he sighed: "Brother Daniel is indeed a god!"
Zhuang Wan finally figured out that Chen Wujin was Yan Cheng's true love (NC) fan.
However, Yan Cheng has indeed become an existence that they can only hope for and cannot pursue. The twenty kilograms of stones were carried on his back as if they were nothing, and he did not even bend down.
If this continues, he will definitely arrive first and become the favored son among a pile of rubbish, shining in Pang Ao's overjoyed eyes...
However, when it comes to holding back, she is a professional.
"Brothers! Don't rest, run!" She greeted the exhausted people, "The twenty army sticks are not easy to bear. I'm sure my butt will be blown and my legs will be broken, and I won't be able to get out of bed for ten and a half months. I don't want to
Those who are beaten should persevere, and perseverance is victory!"
After her encouragement (threat), many people cheered up, gritted their teeth and rushed forward, but she stopped, said "Ouch" and fell to the ground.
"It hurts!"
Chen Wujin ran over quickly: "Brother Zhuang Wan, what's wrong with you?"
"I sprained my foot!" Zhuang Wan glanced at Yan Cheng in front of him. He had stopped and ran towards her.
"You go first! Leave me alone. I will catch up with you after a short rest." She urged the two, five, seven and three people.
"How could I ignore you!" Chen Wujin tried to help her, but was blocked by a hand.
"I'll do it!" Yan Cheng looked at him indifferently and squatted down to inspect Zhuang Wan's injuries.
"Don't touch it!" Zhuang Wan showed pain on her face: "It's just a twist. It will be fine after a while! You should leave quickly, I don't want to injure you."
She thought that as long as Yan Cheng was not the first to arrive, she would not let him have any chance of being noticed by Pang Ao.
Yan Cheng said nothing after hearing this, but picked her up and walked forward step by step.
Holding a person with dozens of kilograms of stones, he walked very calmly, even faster than others.
Zhuang Wan was speechless. She had to admit the power of genes. Yan Cheng's ancestors were northern nomads and were born tall and brave. Apparently he also inherited this excellent gene. Even if he ate bran-throated vegetables, he grew taller and stronger than others.
.
"It's better to put me down! I'll walk by myself." She felt that walking with a limp would be slower, and Yan Cheng wouldn't leave her alone.
"Don't move!" Yan Cheng had no intention of letting her go.
"Put me down quickly! This is a foul. We will both get slapped when we go back!"
Yan Cheng thought about it for a moment, then let Zhuang Wan down and helped her limp forward.
Due to Zhuang Wan's deliberate delay, the two of them had fallen behind.
Zhuang Wan's slightly exaggerated expression of pain because of her sprained foot convinced Yan Cheng that life in the military camp was hard, and this was just the beginning. How could she, a woman, endure it? Thinking of this made her heartache.
"This place is not suitable for you, so you shouldn't come here out of spite!"
Zhuang Wan sighed: "I have no choice but to follow you. I will go wherever you go!"
Yan Cheng: "..."
No matter how much he blamed or tried to persuade, he couldn't say it at the moment. All he could do was protect her and keep her safe here.
Guessing that the time was almost up, Zhuang Wan said: "I feel much better, we can walk faster."
She didn't want Yan Cheng to arrive first, which didn't mean she had to wait until after a stick of incense and both of them would be punished.
The two of them ran back to the starting point, followed by a group of people who had not come and arrived at the specified time. They were already dragged to be spanked, and they screamed for a while.
"Pull these two people out and beat them with twenty army sticks!" Pang Ao pointed at Zhuang Wan and Yan Cheng and ordered.
After saying that, some soldiers picked up the two men.
Before Zhuang Wan could figure out the disaster, Yan Cheng had already raised a question: "The two of us arrived before the incense burned out, why did the general still punish us?"
Pang Ao snorted coldly: "If there were enemy soldiers pursuing you behind you, you two would have been killed by the sword at this speed. I'll just make you remember!"
Zhuang Wan hurriedly explained: "General Rongzhen, it's just because I twisted my foot that my journey was delayed."
Pang Ao asked: "Will the enemy stop chasing you just because you twisted your foot?"
Zhuang Wan: "..."
"What does the general mean..." Yan Cheng said: "Because there are pursuers, you can just ignore it? Leave your injured companions to escape alone?"
Pang Ao raised his eyes and carefully looked at the ignorant boy in front of him. His awe-inspiring and upright look was exactly the same as when he first entered the military camp. Why didn't he see him just now?
"If one person dies in exchange for ten people living, if one hundred people die in exchange for thousands of people living, if one hundred thousand people die in exchange for world peace... even if Pang Mou is shattered to pieces, it is his duty to do so!"
Yan Cheng was speechless. Since ancient times, there have been many battles on the battlefield, with many corpses wrapped in horse leather, but few returning home in rich clothes. He was afraid that he would have too much time to take care of himself on the battlefield, so how could he keep his country safe? He couldn't help but feel anxious again.
Seeing this, Pang Ao walked over slowly, with some admiration in his eyes. It was rare that a fish slipped through the net.
"May I have your name?"
Zhuang Wan had noticed Pang Ao's expression of cherishing talents, but she didn't expect that her move would actually create an opportunity for Yan Cheng.
"General, forgive me!" Yan Cheng didn't realize that he was being noticed at all, and he was still worried about the twenty army sticks.
"This matter is all the fault of one person. I am willing to receive forty military sticks. I hope the general will not implicate others."
"Okay!" Pang Ao sneered: "Since you want to be a hero, I will help you! Come on, fight!"
Zhuang Wan turned pale when she heard this. Pang Ao clearly had a crush on Yan Cheng, so why should he be punished? Could it be his misunderstanding?
Although Yan Cheng didn't scream like the others when he was beaten, the muffled sound of the military stick hitting his flesh was clearly audible.
Will these forty military sticks be used to make me disabled? Although she can do whatever it takes to complete the task, she still couldn't bear it and regretted it when she saw that Yan Cheng was beaten because of herself.
After the punishment was over, Zhuang Wan, Chen Wujin and others quickly helped Yan Cheng back to the barracks. For a while, there were screams of pain everywhere in the barracks.
"Ouch! It hurts me so much!" Laiji lay on the bed and grinned in pain.
"What are you shouting for?" Chen Wujin glared at him: "Brother Danniu received forty blows and didn't even hear a single shout."
Laiji said in a strange tone: "Can I compare with him? A great hero who has been passed down by generations!"
