Chapter 62: Twinkle, Twinkle(1/2)
After the ice water soaked her feet, Guan Fei first used a dry towel to help He Yuanchao dry the water. His movements were very gentle and he did not touch the pain at all.
Then he refused again Suning and others to volunteer, opened the cap of the safflower oil bottle, poured some in the palm of his hand, rubbed it hard, and said to He Yuanchao: "I will help you rub the blood stasis, it may be more painful, so bear it!"
"Yeah!" He Yuanchao nodded vigorously.
Guan Fei held his feet and rubbed them on the swollen part. His movements were neither fast nor slow, sometimes gentle, sometimes forceful. Each time the force was just right, just in the position where the blood stasis was, but he did not use too much force, causing secondary contusion.
Half an hour later, he withdrew his hand with a sweaty head and said with a relieved smile: "Okay! What do you think? Does it still hurt?"
"It doesn't hurt anymore!"
He Yuanchao spoke with a strong nasal sound and tears. I don’t know if it was painful or something else.
"But in this case, it is not appropriate to participate in the selection today. Why don't you go back first and wait for the next time? Our army has been in a period of rapid growth in recent years and will need talents from all walks of life and have opportunities in the future. Besides, you don't have to go to the army. Other positions can also exert their abilities. As long as it is gold, it will always shine." Guan Fei helped him put the red flower oil into his pocket, patted his shoulder, and said with concern.
"No! I must take the assessment today, even if I die!" He Yuanchao stood up suddenly after hearing his words. Although there were still tears on his face, his eyes were particularly firm, and he was looking at Guan Fei without dodging.
Xue Zhen went up to persuade him, but it was useless. He Yuanchao was desperate and must participate in the recruit selection today.
"Why do you want to join the army so much? Will it not work next time?" Guan Fei looked at his firm expression and his tone relaxed.
"I want to be a part of the 291st Brigade. I think this is a place worth paying for! I have poor grades because I can't read. But I like the life of the army. I feel that I am not stupid and will become a good soldier!" He Yuanchao did not retreat at all this time, with a burst of blood in his chest, and his voice was strong and enthusiastic.
The other domestic veterans who were watching were watching were looking indifferently, but when Guan Fei took the initiative to help He Yuanchao rub his feet, he was a little moved. At this moment, seeing He Yuanchao expressing his firm statement, he unconsciously showed a look of praise.
A bit manly.
Guan Fei took two steps back with his hands and looked at him seriously. During this period, He Yuanchao's eyes did not change at all.
"Okay, you can participate, but we won't take special care of you! If you can't pass, we won't accept it!" He finally agreed.
"yes!"
He Yuanchao excitedly imitated others' appearance, stood at attention, and saluted Guan Fei with a not-standard military salute. After all, her feet only slightly rubbed a little blood coagulation, which was not really good. After this force, he hit the wound again, which hurt so much that he grinned the corner of his mouth and bit his lip hard before he could scream again.
"Young man is not bad! He looks like a soldier!" Guan Fei was a little interested in him, patted his arm and praised him.
He Yuanchao was very happy to receive his praise and grinned. Even Xue Zhen helped him back to the stool and sat down without any response.
After dealing with the problem here, Guan Fei turned around and began to have a cordial conversation with the veterans from the country.
Perhaps because of the status, Suning and others were relatively reserved. At first, it was mainly Guan Fei who asked. They answered a brief sentence or two, and it was basically Suning who said it on behalf of others.
Guan Fei didn't care at all, and still talked with a faint smile like an ordinary young man, and he talked to them in fluent Mandarin. He also said one or two swear words that the army liked to say, bit by bit removing their guard.
The domestic military service period is 18 years old, usually three years of military service, and only 21 or 22 years old. Some of these people have been discharged for a longer time, while others have retired this year, almost between the ages of 22 and 24, which is about the same age as Guan Fei.
However, Guan Fei's body has been optimized by biological genes and can always remain in the best state under the control of the biological auxiliary brain. Unless necessary parts, some aging cells will be removed immediately and replaced by newborn cells.
Therefore, although he is twenty-four years old this year, his actual age seems much younger, and no one will doubt that he is a high school student.
In order to maintain his majesty, he would pretend to be solemn, but now he put down all airs. After communicating for a long time, he had a long military career with each other. When both sides talked more and more topics, they gradually deepened. The veterans became more and more intimate with him. They forgot his identity and felt like they were chatting with the little brothers in the army, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.
Everyone was in high spirits and kept talking about the sound of rushing to the sound of running in the barracks in the distance, and gathering to register, and then they suddenly remembered where this was.
Guan Fei smiled and corrected his hat, sorted out his armed belt, and said to Qiu Yingjie: "Please accept them, and take the assessment together later. If you pass, you will be admitted."
"Yes!" Qiu Yingjie didn't understand, so he just saluted and accepted his order.
"He, too, treats him equally." He pointed to He Yuanchao, and after giving in, he walked out of the barracks with the guard Xiao Li, and started the morning cross-country running queue, ran over, integrated into the team, and ran shoulder to shoulder with Zhang Shengguo and Sun Yaohua in the first row.
"Have you inspected it?" Zhang Shengguo asked calmly while running.
When he woke up in the morning, he, Sun Yaohua and others received a notice that he had a group of veterans from home and wanted to join the army.
"Well! According to my observation, what they said is true. The time they enlisted in the army is before and after, and the difference is only three years. It can be confirmed that they have a close relationship with each other. In addition to the confidential information of the army, they said it very calmly. All kinds of information were cross-verified through different people, and there were basically no differences. The situation after they were discharged from the army was also very detailed and true. As for the source of information here, it is also possible to investigate. It was reported that the father of the squad leader of the 2nd Squad of the 11th Company of the Field Army. Their family is in Hebei. Among the veterans, there were two people who were from his hometown. The time, place, and convening process were very detailed. It was indeed said that we were well treated here, and it was the same as in China, so we came here."
Guan Fei exhaled and spoke in a steady tone.
The actual judgment is much more complicated than this. The biological subbrain has a very scientific judgment model. There are tips on how to introduce topics, how to develop topics, and how to guide topics in depth. In addition to logical analysis in words, there are also emotional judgments and various information cross-verification. The results of various judgments, these people all tell the truth.
Moreover, there are a few people who have retired for a while. Although their foundation is still there, their physical functions have significantly decreased, which is impossible to be fake.
If there is a person who has been strictly trained among these people, it is possible. But there are thirty-four people, all of whom are masters who control emotions, and they all come from the same army, and they are closely related to each other, so that even the biological subordinate brain cannot see any strangeness. To be honest, it is impossible in this era.
With this group of elite soldiers joining, the 291st Brigade can further improve its own strength, so Guan Fei will naturally not let it go.
...
On the training ground behind the recruitment department, there were two square formations, one of which was the male soldiers and the other was the female soldiers.
However, the one who stood here today was not soldiers from the army, but educated youth students and ordinary people who came to sign up for the army.
The treatment of the troops is so good that no one can resist the temptation.
Although the total number of soldiers recruited was only 1,000, more than 9,000 people came to register! Almost 60% of educated youth signed up for this selection, and many local people also came.
Elimination rate, 8 to 1!
The selection does not require everyone to wield their fists and move, nor does it require physical tests such as running and high jumping. As long as the height and weight meet the requirements, you can participate. The real selection is to let everyone line up in a square array, stand in the hot sun, and persist until the final victory.
This is the selection method that Guan Fei chose: the test of willpower and physical strength!
When people are exposed to the sun, they will quickly dehydrate. The key to whether they can persist is a strong body and a strong willpower.
Without these two items, you can't stand it.
He Yuanchao is on the right side of the queue. The midsummer sun shines from his head, and the heat penetrates the skull, and the human mind seems to slow down. After the sun is burning, the air is also circulating, and the scenery you see from your eyes becomes distorted and fluctuates continuously.
At first, he felt that standing seemed to be free of energy, and he just avoided his sprained ankle, and was secretly happy.
But after standing for a while, he knew how powerful it was.
This is not moving in the sun. The heat is hot. When people move, there is still a little air flowing, which can reduce the temperature. This is a semi-enclosed valley. The air seems to have solidified here. The ground is getting hotter and hotter. Blasts of heat are coming from under your feet, making people stand in a steamer with nowhere to hide.
They were not allowed to move. The instructor walked back and forth in the queue, staring at everyone's movements, and would be kicked out if he talked nonsense and was eliminated.
He Yuanchao could only stare at the back of the man in front of him, and didn't even dare to tilt his neck.
Less than a quarter of an hour later, he felt his body shaking one after another, scaring him so much that he tried his best to control his body and gritted his teeth and held on.
This is a hurdle. If you take it through, you will win. If you fail, you will mean you will fail in the end!
In terms of study, I can't compete with Kong Lingchen, and in love, I also lost to him. If I still lose here, it will only prove that I am a useless coward!
Am I a coward?
Are me?
Are me?
His teeth were chewing, and the muscles on his cheeks were condensed into pieces. He opened his eyes tightly and looked straight ahead, looking at the back of his head, which was becoming more and more blurry and twisted.
thump!
The sound of people falling to the ground came from behind. The sound was like a signal. People who were almost unable to hold on nearby fell down one after another and were dragged to the shade by the soldiers waiting outside the field and gave them salt water.
"You are about to lose your standing firmly, right? Then give up! It's not that easy to be a soldier! You think it's so easy to gather on the school playground and do gymnastics for a few minutes? Impossible! Military orders are like mountains of falling, do you know what military orders are like mountains of falling? That's the above order, even if it's a sea of swords and fires, you have to rush forward even if you die!"
The instructors inspecting the field changed their methods, not only monitoring, but also holding plastic horns, shuttled through the crowd, yelling loudly.
"How big is the sun? If you can't hold on, you can automatically leave the line and go to a cool place. We have prepared enough warm salt water to replenish the salt and water lost in your body! As long as you walk over, you won't have to suffer here anymore! Is there anyone out of the line?"
The roar is both noisy and tempting.
He Yuanchao licked his dry lips and clenched his teeth again. Maybe it was because he bit too hard, a salty liquid filled his mouth and was bleeding.
His throat moved, gurgling, swallowing blood and saliva into his stomach.
thump!
Someone fell down again. His eyesight was very gorgeous and he could not see the surrounding scenery clearly. He only felt that the dense square arrays before seemed much more sparse.
"If you can't hold on, don't hold on! Dehydration is a very terrible thing. As long as the body loses more than 6% of the water, you will fall into a severe coma and fall into a state of shock! Severe dehydration will cause death!"
The instructors continued to hold up plastic horns, chattering endlessly, luring those who were still standing on the street to give up automatically.
Just die!
If a useless guy like me can't even do this, then you might as well die!
The scenery in front of He Yuanchao became even more blurred, and his vision became much narrower. Only the center was still vaguely visible, and the edges seemed to have turned black.
"If you want to know if you are dehydrated, you can compare the judgment criteria to know! When your oral mucosa becomes dry and you feel thirsty, you will have slightly dehydrated, which will cause you to be quite alert!"
Not only did my mouth dry, but it seemed that my teeth that I had bitten just now stopped bleeding. He Yuanchao smiled, although no one else saw any changes in his face.
"If your oral mucosa is very dry, you really want to drink water, and your pulse is jumping fast, then congratulations, you are already moderately dehydrated, and it will be dangerous if you go down!"
Is my pulse beating fast?
I don’t seem to feel that the world around me seems to be getting farther and farther away from me..., am I going to be unable to hold on?
ah……
He Yuanchao suddenly shouted, and the blood vessels on his neck jumped up, clearly visible, and his face became particularly ferocious.
The two instructors around him were startled by his roar, looked at him, and looked at each other.
Is yelling considered a violation?
It doesn't seem to count. Besides, the commander personally agreed to let him apply for the exam, and even rubbed his feet.
OK, just pretend you didn't see it...
To be continued...
