Chapter 154 Year old
Chapter 154 Year old
In the next few days, Waiya and the others died one after another, and none of them survived to the last day.
This competition was a complete loss.
Originally, there was no suspense. It was surprising that they could hold on for so long. Although they were just messing around most of the time, considering that the two places they went to were quite special, no one said anything to them and happily let them go back to celebrate the New Year.
Jin Tong also gently advised them not to take this matter to heart, saying that victory and defeat are common in the military, and so on.
That look made everyone shudder. They seriously suspected that he was mad and felt guilty. They swore that they would win back in the future. After all, those people with the surname Cui looked so smug that they really deserved a beating.
Only the children knew him, and his behavior seemed to be related to her being 'mad'.
Of course, the most important reason is that the place they go is too difficult.
The children also heard from Xu Mu that the place they later went to was called the Cave of Ten Thousand Demons. In fact, it was even bigger than what they saw. There was a very powerful monster who recruited many demon kings, big and small, and stayed there. He also colluded with the demons, trained demon cultivators, and also trained Yi species. In the beginning, many people died in order to wipe them out.
All of that happened thousands of years ago. If they wanted to solve the problem, not to mention these few cultivators who were not even rookies, even if Cui Ang and the others were added, it would not be enough.
If they want to make a name for themselves there, it would be like seven ants fighting an elephant, seven ants trying to shake a tree, or seven mantises trying to stop a car. They are overestimating their own abilities.
Xu Mu's words were harsh and difficult to understand. After he explained what they meant one by one, the child turned around and left, never wanting to see him again.
Xu Mu didn't care.
She has to come back anyway.
Jin Tong did not mention the child's illness to anyone else. He just punished Cao Ping to make fire for the cooks and the child to boil medicine in the doctor's tent for the crime of being willful and reckless.
There was no mention of when it would end.
But Cao Ping can still wait until after the New Year to go.
I don’t know if it was an illusion, but the child clearly saw Cao Ping smile, and even dimples appeared on his face.
He seemed pleased to be punished.
Maybe he's crazy too.
Before leaving, he actually went out of his way to thank the child, saying that it was all thanks to her this time, and asked her if she wanted him to bring anything back.
He was so polite and courteous, as if he had become a different person.
Seeing him act like this, the child felt embarrassed to confront him and start a fight, but he was of no use to him, so he just said a few words angrily and said goodbye.
Cao Ping's expression remained calm, as if he didn't care at all.
After the New Year, Old Li, who always looked dazed, was also transferred to the cook team.
At this point, the only ones who followed Jin Tong and the others in daily training were Chang Xiaoyu, Hu Shanniang, Hu Zhuier and Miao Nianming (Wai Ya).
The child couldn't explain what it felt like.
It's just... it seems different. She and Waiya still see each other every day, but compared to before, it always feels like something is missing.
It was not until she saw Waiya making a snowball and hitting Chang Xiaoyu flying in the sky, and Shanniang and Zhuier laughing and making snowballs for her, that the child suddenly realized that there was a big difference.
She couldn't throw snowballs as high or as far, nor could she be with her every day. Although they still played together sometimes and stayed together at night, they no longer had only each other.
In the world mirror, Waiya and Zhuier became friends who could fight side by side.
Chang Xiaoyu also listens to Shanniang's words. Those who are strong on the outside but weak on the inside can die with them.
The relationship between these four people is like a tangled mess, getting tighter and tighter. Although they often fight, their relationship is getting better and better.
Kids hate this.
It sounded excessive, but she just didn't like it.
She didn't like it so much that she found a random excuse and resolutely moved to sleep in the small tent next to the medical tent.
Miao Nianming was stunned. He chased after the child and asked, "Are you serious? Just because I chewed up some candy and ate it, you're going to sleep in the doghouse?"
"That's a wolf!" The child popped his red head out of the tent and shouted angrily.
The people in Tude Camp loved to catch wild animals in the mountains, and they once gave Xu Mu a few wolves for protection. However, he disliked the wolves' howling at night, so he used them as medicine one after another, and only kept the tents he had sewn for them when he was happy at the beginning.
The child said she was a medicine-making boy, but in fact there was no medicine to make. She mostly followed him around and did odd jobs. The day before yesterday, she followed him to clean up the sundries and saw this small tent. Xu Mu gave it to her because he liked it. The child had originally planned to set it up to make pig blood for the snoring pig, but now she can use it herself.
Closer to home.
Miao Nianming was stunned when he heard her words: "What's the difference? Aren't they still animals?"
The child looked at her with extremely disappointed eyes and said in a low voice: "You have changed, you have really changed!"
Miao Nianming: "Ah?"
The child complained: "You at least used to call them dogs!"
The child was so sad that he was about to cry, and Miao Nianming was about to collapse: "So why do you want to live in a doghouse?"
The child roared like thunder: "That's a wolf!"
The old Miao Nianming would have dragged her out and beaten her, but the grown-up Miao Nianming just clenched his fists and said, "A wolf is a wolf. You can live in this shabby wolf den of yours. If you have the guts, don't ever come back!"
She ran two steps quickly, then ran back and dived into the wolf's den, picked up a fat cat and ran away.
The movement was too big, and the small tent that was not set up properly fell apart and covered the child's head.
The soldiers saw a child running ahead carrying something on his shoulder, and another child chasing after him with a piece of cloth on his head, shouting, "Give me back my pumpkin!"
The one in front also shouted, "Please let it go. It doesn't deserve this!"
In Miao Nianming's eyes, Pumpkin is a bastard. It scratches everything, slams its big claws on people's heads, and always has a sullen face, looking down on everyone, but its sins are not so serious.
If the child wants to live alone, that's fine. Why make things difficult for a cat? Poor pumpkin, it can hardly turn around.
The soldiers passing by watched for a long time before they confirmed that this was not a wronged ghost seeking revenge, but two children fighting over a cat.
Oh no, they were wrong. They were still wondering what new thing it was.
It turned out to be the pumpkin.
Everyone shook their heads and walked away in boredom.
Although most of the soldiers in the Tude Camp have taken elixirs, they are still ordinary people. What the aliens do has nothing to do with them. The children have been here for a long time, but to be honest, they are not familiar with others at all.
It's like others know them, but they don't know others.
Even though the child is no longer a special alien, he still doesn't know anyone.
To be honest, the seven of them combined don’t know as many people as Pumpkin and Pig Blood do.
At night, Pumpkin, who was forcibly snatched back, couldn't sleep. He sat on the child and looked at her coldly, with a sharp cold light flashing in his eyes.
It was clearly not moving, but it was moving up and down.
If you look more closely, you'll know what's going on.
In the small tent, Pig Blood slept on the mattress, the child slept on the Pig Blood, Pumpkin slept on the child, and a quilt covered them all.
They rose and fell with the pig's blood as it breathed.
No matter whether the child could sleep or not, Pumpkin couldn't sleep anyway, so he sat up with the quilt on his back.
It's still quite cold in early spring.
As the wind blew in through the thin tent, it blew straight into the child's arms, but she felt a little guilty, so she didn't say anything. She silently looked back at Pumpkin, grinning and smiling awkwardly.
Huh~huh~huh~
Amid the strange snoring of Pig Blood, Pumpkin jumped up, put away his meat pads, hit her three times with bangs, pushed open the tent, and left.
When the child put on her clothes and chased after it, it had disappeared. She thought the pumpkin had returned to Waiya, so she chased after it and tried to catch it back.
But Waiya was not in the tent.
In the distance, three shadows were reflected on the tent of the Hu sisters. A giggle or two could be heard, but it was blown far away by the night wind.
Little boy: "Stop looking. Either go find Pumpkin, go back to sleep, or go apologize to him. What's the point of you just poking at him?"
The child remained silent.
The child poked her: "Hey, don't ignore me, it's not my fault."
The child glared at her: "Who else should I blame if not you?"
If it weren't for the little boy, how could she have separated from Waiya?
The little boy looked at her innocently: "But I am you. Besides, even without me, some things will not change. Haven't you always regretted not going back with her for the New Year?"
The child immediately pushed her away, and said angrily, "Stay away from me!"
The child did not follow her, but he knew that she was right.
