Qingcheng

Yuan Ziqing passed the time very calmly, she attended classes as usual, had a regular schedule, and even her smile was the same as before, without any signs of being hurt by love.

But for the matter of being an exchange student, he has a firm attitude.

If you persist for a long time, it is not a matter of money, but a matter of stubbornly holding on to certain beliefs.

But Ma Lan can't procrastinate, so as not to have long nights and dreams.Who knows what despicable means that fellow Gao Cheng used to make Yuan Ziqing wait for him wholeheartedly.

Suppressing something in her heart, Ma Lan couldn't train quietly, she was scolded several times by the teacher, and finally kicked her out of class.

Ma Lan returned to school and quietly asked the tutor about the exchange students.

This afternoon, the weather was very cloudy, Ma Lan walked slowly to the girls' dormitory, thinking about how to tell Yuan Ziqing about the matter tactfully.

All the way to her dormitory, Ma Lan couldn't think of a good solution.

Yuan Ziqing was writing on the table when Ma Lan walked up behind her.

"Oh, why are you walking silently?" Yuan Ziqing glanced at Ma Lan and said, "Your face is cloudier than the sky outside. What's wrong?"

Ma Lan suddenly leaned over and hugged her, and said in a dull tone, "Ziqing, I can't hide it from you."

That afternoon, Yuan Ziqing ran out of the dormitory and did not come back all night.

Ma Lan asked her family to help her search everywhere, but she couldn't find it.Ma Lan was terrified, the lightning and thunder outside were just like her heart.

The next day, the rain did not stop.Yuan Ziqing appeared at the school gate, was seen by Xiao Jia in the same dormitory, dragged her back, and immediately called Ma Lan.

When Ma Lan saw Yuan Ziqing, she was taken aback.Yuan Ziqing's whole body was drenched, her face was pale and blue, it didn't look like the face a living person should have.

As soon as she arrived at the dormitory, Yuan Ziqing passed out.

A few days later, Yuan Ziqing was at Ma Lan's house.She suddenly decided to apply for an exchange student program and handed a box to Ma Lan.

Ma Lan opened it and looked at it, her eyes were a little wet, and she felt worthless for her.

"Why are you so stupid." Ma Lan choked up.

Yuan Ziqing was still very weak, and said in a weak voice, "Send this to Gao Cheng for me."

Ma Lan nodded and asked hesitantly, "Then what should I tell him?"

Yuan Ziqing looked disheartened, and said decisively: "I have nothing to say to him."

Two months later, Yuan Ziqing flew to country M.

--------------

one year later.

On the endless grassland, there are a few inconspicuous houses standing on the dry land with green grass and yellow grass, but there is an unusual road in the middle of the houses, because it is in the shape of a five-pointed star.

That's right, this is the training ground where the fifth squad of the Red Third Company guards.

The five soldiers are busy on the field, and they will welcome an armored reconnaissance battalion here tonight.

In the evening, a few station cars took the lead, and the mighty convoy came rumbling from the vast grassland path.

The grassland is vast, and until nightfall, gunshots sounded in the air, and the sound spread far away.

In front of the headlights, someone shouted: "Is there any bottle?"

Someone shouted back in the dark: "No, my hands are almost discounted!"

Another said: "Oh, what a gun king."

A soldier stood there holding a gun with a strange shape in his hand, with a calm and lonely expression.Hearing this, he smiled wryly, and said in a low voice, "I'm not some kind of gun king."

An officer walked by in front of him, looked at him with his hands behind his back, and said, "Changcai, if you want to do what you want, you have to get used to being called." People are called fools."

The soldier named Chengcai shook his head, "Deputy Battalion Commander, he is not a fool." After speaking, he turned around and handed over the remaining bullets in his gun.

The deputy battalion commander is Gao Cheng. After hearing this sentence, his eyes were inexplicably touched, but his face was still tense.

Chengcai walked back to Gaocheng, and Gaocheng took the gun in Chengcai's hand, "I asked you just now, and said that the gun looks like a broken bone. You said it was broken. How do you say that?"

Cheng Cai had a slight embarrassment on his face, and his voice was very low, "Deputy Battalion Commander, you know."

Gao Cheng raised his voice, "I know very well, it's like a person who has been beaten to a bone, and puts on the plaster and then reinstalls the person. Because you are not the only one who went to old A, but you haven't been there for a few months. I just came back in despair. What's going on here?"

Chengcai still smiled humbly, "If you want to survive, you have to get up."

Gao Cheng walked forward with a gun, followed by the soldiers of the Divisional Reconnaissance Battalion. He walked casually and said: "It doesn't matter if you climb this way, I will destroy my entire Division Reconnaissance Battalion." Return it to Chengcai, pointing to the gun and said: "I asked about your gun, why are you sticking to such a street vendor worth tens of dollars? The sniping is not like sniping, and the assault is not like assault. You said it was your friend Why did your stupid friend do such a stupid thing?"

Chengcai raised his eyebrows and said, "After being a soldier for so many years, I have only made one friend, the only good friend. He also values ​​what I value. He knows that there is no sniper rifle in the place I came from, so he gave me one." ..."

Gao Cheng put his hands on his hips, as if he heard a joke, he laughed a few times, "Funny people, just do funny things."

Chengcai raised his head, lowered it again, his voice was as usual, but his tone was firm, "Deputy Battalion Commander, don't say that, he is not a funny person, and what he does is not funny either."

Gao Cheng ignored it, and continued to sneer: "You said I know that person, the laughing stock of Gang Qilian. Isn't that right, Gan Xiaoning?"

Gan Xiaoning yelled "Here", then his face wrinkled, "No way, Deputy Battalion Commander."

Gao Cheng glanced at him.

Chengcai said: "If he is a laughingstock, then we are all laughingstocks. I am still one, not as good as his laughingstock. The soldiers are poor, really poor. Thinking about it now, apart from the team, comrades-in-arms, and persistence, there may be nothing left in the end." .but if……"

Gao Cheng was listening to him with his head tilted, and then continued: "What if?" Seeing that he hesitated to speak, Gao Cheng turned his back, "Tell me, come. There are so many people, let me tell you something."

Chengcai took a breath, although he was smiling, his eyes were glistening with moisture, "If...if a person is a soldier once in his life, he can understand those six words - don't give up, don't give up..." He smiled wryly for two voice, as if unable to hold on anymore, "Deputy Battalion Commander, please let me go. I know it's too late for me to say anything, but I regret it now, I really regret that I left the Seventh Company at that time. Four Thousand 940 Four, It was the number I was in the Seventh Company at the time. I know how you think of me now. In your heart, I am a deserter. But, Company Commander, I want to tell you that I was wrong, I was really wrong." Laughing Weeping while weeping.

Gao Cheng squinted at him, pursed his lips for a long while, and took a step forward to pull Cheng Cai over and hug him.Patting Chengcai on the back seemed to be apologetic, he whispered: "Good job. I'm sorry, because your friend is here."

Chengcai's eyes gradually showed a bit of consternation.

Gao Cheng let him go, and shouted at a command vehicle not far away: "Do you know why I ran, ran him? When do you want to see it? Come out, Xu Sanduo!"

When Cheng Cai heard it, he couldn't believe it.

Gaocheng spread his hands, "Okay. The world is big, and there are many choices. Those who understand this, understand this truth, and understand this, just say goodbye to all the soldiers here! You have abandoned yourself and us. .Do you think you will, will live happily now? Let me tell you, don’t say that you have been a soldier, especially a soldier of the Seventh Company.”

The command vehicle was still silent, and a stubborn voice sounded inside, as if trying to refute with all its strength: "I didn't! I didn't say I was leaving!"

Gao Cheng waved his hand, and shouted back angrily: "You don't have a fart, you don't! You just came to say goodbye, didn't you, come and see us for peace of mind."

Xu Sanduo whimpered: "I thought about it, but I didn't say it!"

"I told you for you, get out of here." Gao Cheng kicked at the oil drum next to him, but hit his foot, and his face was distorted in pain for a moment.

The voice in the command car continued, "But I don't want to go now!"

Gaocheng was amused at once, "Mom, you stupid soldier, I'll take advantage of you, you're haunted." After finishing speaking, he limped and walked angrily: "I almost broke my big toe, stupid soldier!"

Xu Sanduo was finally pulled out of the command car, and embraced with his friend Cheng Cai whom he hadn't seen for a long time.

Gao Cheng was watching them while watching the fire in the distance, and drove away a group of soldiers watching the excitement.Limping alone, he sat down on a dirt bag on the sidelines and looked at the grassland under the night, which was completely black.

There is a slope not far away, and the end of the slope is connected to the entrance of the fifth class.There came a soldier's angry reprimand, and a woman's voice of defense.

Gao Cheng frowned, stood on the dirt bag and looked over there, only vaguely seeing the white figure of the woman.he yelled.

"That soldier, what are you shouting about?"

The sentry guard heard the sound, trotted over and stood still, and saluted: "Report to the deputy battalion commander, there is a villager who wants to enter the camp."

Gao Cheng said "hmm" and said, "Did you ask what's the matter?"

Just as he was talking, Chengcai ran over and said apologetically, "It's a friend of mine. I had an appointment to come in the morning. There might be something. Now that I'm here, I'll talk to her."

Gao Cheng smiled, "I'm looking for you."

Cheng Cai was a little embarrassed by the sight, so he hurriedly explained, "It's just a friend, I asked her to draw a picture for me as a souvenir, it should be sent to me today."

Gao Cheng chuckled, "Okay, let's go."

"Yes!"

When Chengcai came to the woman, the two of them were talking about something, Gao Cheng felt that sitting here was meaningless, so he wanted to go back.Suddenly, he seemed to hear a few words.

Cheng Cai came back with the painting in his hand, and accidentally bumped into Gao Cheng, he was stunned, "Company commander, why are you still here?"

Gao Cheng's face was very serious, his eyes were cold, and he asked him: "The girl who came just now, what do you call her?"

Being looked at like this, Cheng Cai was quite frightened, and replied honestly, "Her name is Yuan Ziqing."

Gao Cheng suddenly jumped over him and ran downhill, and came back after a while, probably not finding it, panting heavily, caught Chengcai and asked, "Do you know where she lives?"

"I live in a fellow villager's house, and they say they're here to collect folk songs..."
