Soldier [Future Space]

While Zhan Shilin and his baby Zhan are getting more and more harmonious here, Yang Jiunian is sitting by the campfire and drinking the Yili Laojiao brought by the locals.According to the local people, Yili Laojiao is a wine for dancing, because it is so good that you don’t get drunk, and you want to dance after drinking it.Yang Jiunian sat on the ground laughing and watching the boys and girls dancing by the bonfire, "Alcohol is not intoxicating, everyone gets drunk", it is not the wine that makes people want to dance, but this group of ethnic minorities makes foreigners want to dance and dance with them.

"Xiao Nian, let's go dancing too."

Sitting next to Yang Jiunian, Moran watched the group of boys and girls in national costumes singing and dancing together, and couldn't help but pull Yang Jiunian and said.

When Yang Jiunian heard this, he quickly smiled and waved his hands: "Sister Lan, I'll forget it, I can't."

"fine."

At this time, several girls of Kazakh and Uyghur ethnicity saw this scene. They enthusiastically walked to Yang Jiunian, spoke to Yang Jiunian in simple Kazakh local language, and gestured with body language.Yang Jiunian couldn't understand what they said, but from their body language, he could tell that these enthusiastic girls were inviting him to dance together.

Yang Jiunian had never been surrounded by so many girls. He blushed, bent over, waved his hands tactfully, and said that he couldn't dance.

How could the girls let Yang Jiunian go so easily? They were so numerous, they pulled in front, pushed behind, and finally retreated the embarrassed Yang Jiunian into the dance group.The girls were gesticulating, asking Yang Jiunian to imitate them by raising their hands and dancing.

Yang Jiunian was embarrassed by this group of simple and enthusiastic Kazakh girls, so he could only follow them stiffly.

Sitting in the distance, eating mutton and drinking Yili Laojiao, Wang Hai and Wei Qing had already roared with laughter and applauded...

The bonfire party was organized by the magistrate of Hetian County to welcome them. Many local ethnic minorities gathered. They did not dance their own national dances, but only expressed their love for them with the most enthusiastic and simple dance. A warm welcome to the guests.Wei Qing looked at Yang Jiunian who was waving his arms stiffly among a group of few names, smiled and picked up the camera casually, and took a picture of this scene.

As a photographer, Yang Jiunian felt the flashing mirror in an instant. When he saw Wei Qing who was taking pictures with a camera not far away, Yang Jiunian howled directly, pointed at Wei Qing and shouted to Moran behind the dance team: "Lan! Sister, pull that creepy guy in too, pull in..."

Yang Jiunian's howl did not require Moran's action at all. In an instant, a group of men with a few names surrounded Wei Qing with 'frightening' smiles.In an instant, Wei Qing's "hard-working" howl exploded in the singing.Everyone stopped, looked at Wei Qing who was being lifted up by several Uighur boys, and let out an excited sound of "嗤嗤".

Yang Jiunian came to this scene, excitedly followed the other side and shouted "嗤嗤". Yang Jiunian didn't know what this simple voice meant, but at this moment, Yang Jiunian only felt that it was the most important thing to make this kind of sound. Can express the joy in his heart at the moment.

Wei Qing was being held up by several boys, and suddenly saw Yang Jiunian dancing below, and immediately pointed to Yang Jiunian and said, "You wait for me."

Yang Jiunian didn't care about him, he just danced and sang on his own.

They just arrived in Hotan County today. They planned to check into the hotel directly, but they were dragged directly to their home by the enthusiastic county magistrate. The county magistrate of Hotan County is a Uighur uncle in his 40s.His daughter will hold a wedding in a few days, marrying a Han Chinese soldier stationed here.

No matter Yang Jiunian, Wang Hai, Moran, or Wei Qing were unwilling to disturb the local residents, they adhered to the guidelines of the Red Army and did not take a single cent of the common people.However, this Uighur uncle was too enthusiastic. He sat directly at the door of the hotel where they were about to stay, and he didn't want them to walk into the hotel.

The uncle is well-known in the local area as a kind-hearted and generous person. People who can understand Chinese all came forward to persuade Yang Jiunian and the others to follow the uncle, saying: No matter who comes from Hetian County, they will go to the uncle. Those who live at home can only stay in the hotel unless the uncle's house is full of people.

Yang Jiunian and his party could only follow the uncle back to his home.

The uncle knew that they were going into the Taklamakan Desert, and told them as soon as they came that it was not the right time for them to come.The best time to enter the Taklamakan Desert **, they came early.From autumn to spring of the following year, Taklamakan is the season with less dust storms, less mosquitoes, and the dry riverbed has become a road for driving.Once the Japanese TV media walked and filmed with the water head when the spring flood season came, and recorded the scene of the spring flood water pouring into the dry river bed, thus vividly showing the life recovery scene of the "sea of ​​death".From autumn to spring of the following year, about 10 days from late October to mid-November each year, is the golden season for crossing the Taklamakan Desert.In addition to the above-mentioned advantages at this time, the most important thing is that the leaves of Populus euphratica in the Tarim Basin turn golden yellow in a very ostentatious way. Walking on the picturesque Hotan River can give you a more colorful experience.

Of course Yang Jiunian and the others knew this. The main purpose of their coming early was because of Hotan—the Hotan River that crosses the entire Taklamakan Desert.

They will be here for two months to prepare and walk into the Taklagan Desert.

After the party, Yang Jiunian and the others returned to the uncle's house.

The uncle's house is a small white building with three floors. The uncle planned to give up his master bedroom on the first floor to let Yang Jiunian and the others sleep.The uncle spoke in stiff Chinese, but in the end, he was no match for Yang Jiunian and the others: "Uncle, if you are like this, we will go out and live."

The uncle had no choice but to let his daughter and son clean up the guest room on the third floor for them to live in.

They set off from Beijing, arrived in Korla, and then transferred to Hotan County. It has been more than a week.

At this moment, Yang Jiunian was sitting on his bed after taking a shower, looking at the photos on his phone, flipping through them one by one, with a look full of longing.

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.

"Come in."

The one who came in was Uncle Korla's daughter. Her name was Hali Kezi, which means queen in Chinese translation. She was a very beautiful and generous Uighur girl.

"Harricks, what's the matter?"

Harleukz opened the door politely, stood at the door, put his right palm on his left chest, then leaned forward 30 degrees to salute Yang Jiunian, then raised a bowl of goat milk in his hand, and walked to Yang Jiunian's room. around.

Yang Jiunian patted the bed, indicating that the beautiful girl could sit down.

Harlikez smiled, and sat beside Yang Jiunian casually, watching her guests drink the goat milk she cooked herself.Suddenly, Harlikez saw the photos in Yang Jiunian's camera.She pointed to Yang Jiunian's mobile phone and said in Chinese: "That's... your family?"

Yang Jiunian heard it, nodded with a smile, and introduced her, "This is my family, this is my partner, and he is our son."

Harriquez was probably attracted by Baby Zhan's cute smiling face in it. This beautiful girl has already begun to fantasize about her and her lover's child.

"Can I see it?"

"Of course." Yang Jiunian handed over the phone.Harricus didn't continue immediately, but stood up, saluted just now, and then took it with both hands, curtly.

Harric looked at the photos on Yang Jiunian's phone, and when he saw the photo of Baby Zhan, "Oh my God, he is so cute. I don't know if my future children will be as cute as him."

Yang Jiunian put the bowl aside, and replied to the beautiful girl with a smile, "Of course. Harricks is so beautiful, your child will definitely be cuter."

Harriquez blushed a little, but when she heard Yang Jiunian's words, she smiled.

"Your partner is also a soldier?"

Yang Jiunian stretched his head to look, and found that Harric had already seen the photo he had taken of Zhan Shilin. It was Zhan Shilin wearing a general uniform with several rows of medals pinned to his chest.

He smiled and watched Harricus pointing at the medals in surprise, "He's amazing."

Yang Jiunian smiled and said nothing, but looked proud.

"Five stars, what rank is this?"

Harriquez turned to look at Yang Jiunian with a strange expression on his face.

Yang Jiunian smiled and said, "Secret."

When the girl heard Yang Jiunian's words, she turned her head and snorted, "Don't tell me. I'll ask Yi Mu tomorrow."

Yang Jiunian has already heard from his uncle that his future Han Chinese son-in-law will be called Yi Mu.

Seeing that Yang Jiunian didn't speak, Hali Kezi added: "My family, Yi Mu, is also very good."

Yang Jiunian was taken aback for a moment, and suddenly realized that this was what Harricus meant, and nodded with a smile.

Harlikez was a little dissatisfied with Yang Jiunian's nodding with a smile, and repeated again: "Really, my family, Yi Mu, is really powerful."

Seeing that Harlikets was in a hurry, Yang Jiunian hurriedly said: "Harlikez, I am serious. I have no intention of canceling. I am very serious to tell you that your Yi Mu is a very powerful person , because he is a soldier, a soldier who has been stationed in the military region along the Hotan River for a long time. For such a person, I will always express my high respect and pride."

Harriquez laughed.

After a long time, after looking at the photo of Yang Jiunian and his family of three, Harlikez suddenly murmured: "I miss him a little bit."

Yang Jiunian knew that she was talking about her lover - Yi Mu.Soldiers must implement military regulations, and it is impossible to leave the barracks at any time.

"I'll see him soon, though."

The young and beautiful Korla girl laughed again.

"Do you miss them?"

Yang Jiunian looked at Harikez and asked, pointing to the photo of their family of three, and nodded.

"Why don't you call them?"

She also gave goat milk to the other three people just now, and they were all using their computers to video chat with friends and family members far away.Only this one, looking at the photo full of thoughts.Therefore, she couldn't help but want to stay and chat with him.

"because……"

Because... because of what?

Yang Jiunian found that he had no reason.

Yeah, why can't he call them?

Is it because they didn't answer the first call?

"Harricks thank you so much."

Looking at Yang Jiunian who had figured it out, Harlikez laughed, "You're welcome." Then, he picked up the bowl next to him, said "good night" to Yang Jiunian with a smile, and exited.

Because it is summer time now, Yang Jiunian's side in Xinjiang won't get dark until eleven o'clock in the evening, and it is already half past two in the middle of the night.Although he knew that calling at this time would definitely disturb them to sleep, but Yang Jiunian found that he couldn't help it...

There was already a beeping sound in his ear, and after the second beep, Yang Jiunian heard a voice he was most familiar with...

"Hi, I'm Zhan Shilin."
