mayfly era

Zhu Qingyuan's upper body is wrapped in a boxer's cloak, like a handsome deer wearing snake-scale armor.

He leaned against the crooked door frame of the crude locker room, folded his arms.

"You like peeking at other people changing clothes so much?" Chen Li asked.

"I see it aboveboard, who told you not to close the door." Zhu Qingyuan said.

"You have no door here at all."

When Chen Li first came in, he even suspected that the place had just been bombarded by mortar shells. Not only was there no door, but the floor was also cracked.

Zhu Qingyuan shrugged, "No way, business is not good."

Chen Li wrapped his hands with elastic bandages, and wrapped his abdomen around it—mainly because he was afraid that the scars would frighten the enthusiastic onlookers.

Zhu Qingyuan came over and took a look at the bandage on his abdomen, "It grows pretty fast, I thought it would take two months anyway."

"Ah."

Zhu Qingyuan smiled, "I will try not to hit you in the stomach."

"Whatever, I just wanted to make you vent your anger." Chen Li said.

"Yo, so polite?"

"I'm not polite, but you have to pay back what you owe. This is the rule at sea." Chen Li said.

"What tricks are you going to ask me?" Zhu Qingyuan asked.

"Until you're comfortable."

"Really?"

"But you can't hit the face, the smoker will get angry." Chen Li said.

Zhu Qingyuan smiled angrily, "He gets angry wherever he goes."

"Yes, so be careful when you walk at night." Chen Li also laughed, his eyes as dark as Yehu sparkled.

"Let me play the first ten rounds. I want to compete with you seriously. I heard from Fan Ge that you are the 'King of Melee Combat' on the high seas." Zhu Qingyuan said.

Chen Li shook his head, "You can't beat me."

"..."

"At that time, I have to pretend to be evenly matched, so as not to hurt your self-esteem."

"Has your mouth been torn apart?"

"Those who want to tear me apart can't beat me."

"You really never lost? Not once?" Zhu Qingyuan asked curiously.

"Not with outsiders."

Zhu Qingyuan took a deep breath, "I really don't want to talk to you."

"Let's go, doctor." Chen Li swept the clothes he had taken off to the corner - after all, this so-called dressing room didn't even have a cabinet.

"Did you come to me just for this?"

"Fix this first."

Chen Li is too familiar with the place of the arena.If Chen Ming hadn't told him clearly how he was created, he would have felt that he was not born in life, but born in the ring.

While he was distracted, Zhu Qingyuan punched like lightning, he instinctively blocked it, but his thoughts drifted back to the past on the high seas...

The crimson flags and huge metal cabins all over the ship are symbols of strength.

That month, all the ships of their fraternal alliance docked on a small island on A12, the land was soft, and the circles of weeds looked like the thinning hair of a middle-aged man.

Fange was only one flag short of reaching the top of the Brotherhood. He had only joined for two months, and he said to Fange, "I'll go and get that flag for you."

In the three-day wheel battle, there is no time limit, no limit to equipment, no limit to casualties... There are no taboos.

No taboo is the scariest word in the arena, you can't imagine how unimaginable methods your opponent will use.

He remembered that the toughest stubble he had ever encountered was "Fatty Hai", who was also known as a fighter like the leader.This person's huge body is a typical fat-packed muscle, and the weight of each punch can smash through the iron plate.

However, he also has agility and endurance that almost all fat people do not have.

Chen Li and Fatty Hai fought from dawn to dusk, and they loosened the soil on the entire island so that they could plant coffee beans in the coming year.

In the end, Fatty Hai accidentally sprained his big toe. As a giant creature weighing more than [-] kilograms, he could only retire with a "woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo"."

But in fact, Chen Li had broken the radial bones on the outside of both arms at that time.

Later, Chen Li reflected on himself and thought that he might not be as good as Fatty Hai in pure melee combat skills, but after that, he never found another opportunity to compete with this fighter.

"You hit too straight." Chen Li took the time to point Zhu Qingyuan while blocking.

Zhu Qingyuan is a typical battalion gymnastics. He learned it according to the standard fighting movements, and every move is straight and straight.

Zhu Qingyuan retaliated hard for his advice.

"It's easy to be guessed if you play too squarely, and there is little room for swing." Chen Li explained in a low voice.

Zhu Qingyuan was obviously even angrier, her originally fair face was flushed, and her neck was swollen.Chen Li had no choice but to shut up.

They had already made thirty moves, and Chen Li lost thirty points.

But because he didn't have the slightest sign of falling to the ground and admitting defeat, the audience in the audience were puzzled.

The whole place seemed to be frozen, and there was no sound.

Chen Li thinks this should be the worst fight he has ever fought in his life.

Zhu Qingyuan's style reminded Chen Li of a brother who used to be a combatant under Odin. He was equally rigid, but because of his rigidity, he occasionally suffered a particularly severe psychological blow.

Later, the brother was disarmed and returned to the fields, and went back to his hometown in the south to plant rubber.

The limit of losing points in this boxing arena is [-] points.

Chen Li should be the first person in the history of this venue to lose a full [-] points - he didn't make a single shot, and finally walked off the ring under the boos of the audience.

Back in the locker room, Zhu Qingyuan still looked displeased.

Chen Li was helpless, "I lost you [-] points and gave you [-]. Why are you not happy?"

"I feel like I've been insulted," said Zhu Qingyuan.

"If you beat me in the ring, you can win the high seas for ten years." Chen Li said.

Zhu Qingyuan laughed angrily again. He stroked his wet hair, revealing a fair forehead and two slightly delicate eyebrows. "I'm not a mercenary."

Chen Li had already put on his clothes, so he was looking at the disheveled Zhu Qingyuan in his spare time.

"I want to know about the scales."

Zhu Qingyuan snorted coldly, "I knew it."

"How did you get into the balance?"

"How can I get in? I walked in."

"The balance belongs to the first game, right?"

Zhu Qingyuan looked at Chen Li in surprise, but did not answer.

"If you want to know how I know, just tell me how you got into the balance."

Zhu Qingyuan was silent for a while, "They will screen in the population database. If you are selected, you must participate in their assessment, unless you are eliminated... In other words, they can only reject you, and you have no right to refuse."

"What test?"

"My assessment is to be a blind person." Seeing that Chen Li was puzzled, Zhu Qingyuan explained to him patiently, "Because they think that the use of vision in the five senses of human beings is too large, which is not balanced enough, so they trained us Reduce visual ability, develop other sensory abilities...to achieve a balance of the five senses."

"Balance." Chen Yue chewed the word repeatedly in his heart.

Balance, so it is a balance, it is very straightforward.

A balance has only two ends, and to keep it in balance, equal weights must be added continuously.

"Yes, balance, they only pursue this, or in other words, this is their belief." Zhu Qingyuan said.

"What about you? What do you believe in?" Chen Li asked.

Zhu Qingyuan turned around to show Chen Li the tattoo on his back, the sitting Buddha with twelve different faces.Except for the main face which is painted solemn and sacred, the other eleven faces, including the one in the palm of the right hand, each have their own ferocity.

"What is this?" Chen Li asked.

"The Buddha of Naraku." Zhu Qingyuan said.

Chen Li frowned slightly, he knew that Naraku was the name of the endless hell that could never be escaped.

"In the Buddha of Naraku, eleven of the twelve faces were infected by evil spirits and lost their sanctity, and only one face remained solemn, sitting in the endless hell."

"He is full of ghosts, even if his merits are immeasurable, he will not be able to go to heaven. He can only sit around and suppress Naluo."

Zhu Qingyuan's tone of voice when telling this legend is gentle, with admiration and pity.

He quickly realized his gaffe, smiled a little shyly, and put on his clothes.

"Then he is very lonely." Chen Li said.

"Yes, I think so too, but unfortunately I'm just a mortal, you said how many bad things I have to do to stay with him forever." Zhu Qingyuan said.

"...I don't understand these things."

"I'm just kidding, I just like this story, so I got it tattooed on my body." Zhu Qingyuan returned to her usual elegant and slightly cool voice.

"The balance belongs to the first game, I guessed it." Chen Li said.

Zhu Qingyuan was not surprised, "We have a leader who wants to see you, but she said that now is not the time."

"You help me, is that leader's instruction?"

Zhu Qingyuan shook his head, "No."

"Because of the rebellion?"

"No." Zhu Qingyuan said slowly, "Because all of us doctors have soft hearts."

Chen Li was speechless for a moment.

"Actually, the first time I saw you in Liuliguang... I thought you must have had a bad life, at least worse than I imagined."

"You met me before?" Chen Li was puzzled, Zhu Qingyuan acted as if he knew him early in the morning.

But they have to wear helmets or goggles to protect their cheeks during training, sleep in a cabin for each person at night, and perform physical training against robots. There is almost no chance to recognize each other's faces before graduation.

And he didn't graduate.

"I haven't seen it before." Zhu Qingyuan shook his head, "But I've seen you parachute, and I've seen paratroopers parachute in the army. My intuition tells me that you were born in parachuting."

Chen Li sighed, "I will never jump again, a vehicle has caused so much trouble."

"Maybe you don't have to hide your identity anymore." Zhu Qingyuan said.

Zhu Qingyuan's current gentleness made Chen Li feel a little awkward, he shook his head, "Maybe... Doctor Zhu, Tianping sent you to watch the counter-revolutionaries, what do you want to get from him?"

Zhu Qingyuan didn't answer his question, but took out a long and thin pen from his pocket, shook it, and said with a sneer, "I recorded everything."

Chen Yue didn't change his face, "Isn't one hundred thousand enough?"

"Wait until you call my account." Zhu Qingyuan continued to smile coldly, Chen Li felt very kind.

"Your flashlight pen is a bit too expensive."

"Tch, it's not fun." Zhu Qingyuan threw the flashlight to Chen Li, then pushed the door open and left the dressing room.

"Wait." Chen Li grabbed Zhu Qingyuan's clothes.

Zhu Qingyuan was dragged by him so that he staggered and almost fell, and two cracks burst out on the floor.

"Let's fix the floor when you have time." Chen Li said.

"You dragged me just to say this?" Zhu Qingyuan suddenly became furious.

"No..." Chen Yue pursed his lips, lowered his head slightly, and said softly, "I'm here to apologize to you, I'm sorry for delaying your bright future and your dreams."

Zhu Qingyuan looked at Chen Li, he was silent for a long time, and then said bluntly, "I don't forgive."

Chen Li sighed, "I can only do this."

"I don't forgive those superiors who judge a person on the basis of gender, their laziness and ignorance, and each of them living better than you and me."

In the words of Zhu Qingyuan, every word is quenched with blood and tears, and every word is full of chills.

Chen Li raised his head and looked at Zhu Qingyuan silently, his sense of guilt became deeper and heavier for a moment.

He thought that he really ruined this young man's life, if it wasn't for him... what an excellent general Zhu Qingyuan would have become.
