Tao Zi hasn't been able to eat a good meal these days. The noodles Lao Yu sent were so delicious that she ate so much that she almost buried her head in the bowl.

Inexplicably, it felt like Ning Zhenqian was staring at him.

She raised her head suddenly and met his gaze. He had no time to hide it. There was a wave of light in her always cold and hard eyes that she couldn't understand. dizzy...

Before she could see it clearly, the ripples disappeared, replaced by the usual coldness.

"Why...why do you look at me like that?" Being stared at by him like this, she felt that it would be difficult to continue eating. What she didn't understand was that she was finally a female anchor, and she was articulate anyway, so how could she stick out her tongue when speaking in front of him? Not straight……

He frowned, "I can't see that eating is so ugly!"

She licked her lips, just like when she ate the candy that brother Tangtang gave her, savoring the aftertaste incessantly. She saw Ning Zhenqian's eyes move again, she thought she was This action is too unrefined, he must have disliked it, he was a little embarrassed, "I can only blame Lao Yu's noodles for being so delicious... What brand of seasoning bag does he use? It's so delicious?"

Still mention the seasoning packet?He gritted his teeth, feeling the urge to strangle her...

"Hurry up and eat! Rest after eating!" He stood up abruptly, with such strength that he even fell over the chair.

Then with a "bang", he slammed the door and went out.

Holding the noodle bowl, she didn't know what she said wrong, she was fine just now, why is there another tornado?

Before Tao Zi came here, she had learned about altitude sickness, and knew that it would usually recover in two or three days, so she felt much more comfortable in the afternoon. If it wasn't because she still had a cold, she would probably have recovered.

Ning Zhenqian was very busy, and after slamming the door, he didn't show up again for a whole day. Hao Xiaohai delivered lunch and dinner.

After lying on the bed for a day and a night, she felt stuffy and her bones ached, so she wanted to go for a walk.So, after dinner, I asked Hao Xiaohai, "Xiao Hai, is your team leader still busy at this time?"

Hao Xiaohai cleaned up the bowls and chopsticks, and replied without raising his head, "It's on the playground."

Are you still training on the playground?She really wanted to see how he was training, so she asked, "Is the playground far from here?"

"Not far!"

"Then Xiaohai, can I go and have a look?" She was immediately very excited, he must be handsome as a soldier in training! .

"This..." Xiao Hai was a little hesitant, he ran to death in the thirty laps in the morning...

"Xiao Hai! Are you okay?" She herself felt a little nauseous.

Hao Xiaohai's face suddenly turned pale, and he lowered his head, not daring to look at her, and nodded like a chicken pecking at rice.

She was overjoyed and asked Hao Xiaohai to wait outside, changed her clothes and went out.

There is still a little distance between the health center and the army camp, Hao Xiaohai walked slowly, matching her speed, she was surprised, isn't Xiaohai Ning Zhenqian's orderly?What kind of subordinates should be brought out by what kind of superiors!When she was with Ning Zhenqian, didn't he dash forward and she chased behind panting?It's really unscientific for Hao Xiaohai to be so considerate...

She wanted to tease Xiao Hai, "Xiao Hai, do you have a girlfriend?"

Hao Xiaohai is really a shy boy, his face immediately turned red again, and he muttered in a low voice, "Yes, at my hometown."

Unexpectedly, he was so shy, which aroused her desire to tease him even more, she laughed, "Xiao Hai, whoever is your girlfriend is really blessed!"

Sure enough, Hao Xiaohai became even more shy, blushing and didn't dare to raise his head, "Sister-in-law..."

"Okay, okay, I won't laugh at you anymore!" She laughed loudly, "By the way, it's New Year's Eve tomorrow, won't your girlfriend come to see you?"

"No, it's too far away." Xiao Hai said, paused, and then said, "I will write a letter, it's time to arrive tomorrow." The words seemed to be defending his girlfriend, and when he mentioned the letter, he was looking forward to and pride.

Tao Zi nodded, and instantly lost his heart to make fun of Xiao Hai. In this remote and desolate place, family letters are the deepest expectation in the lives of soldiers...

The twilight is gradually dyeing, and the plateau after the rain, the mountains are shrouded in layers of mist, looking mysterious and solemn.

There was no longer the oppressive feeling in the air, and Tao Zi felt relaxed physically and mentally, and his mood became more joyful, "Xiao Hai, the twilight in this mountain has a special meaning, it must be very beautiful when the sky is sunny!"

"Of course!" Hao Xiaohai's pride suddenly rose, but he fell down again after speaking, "However, only my sister-in-law said that this place is beautiful..."

"Huh?" She didn't understand what it meant.

Xiao Hai didn't want to say any more, and pointed to the neat rows of houses not far away and said, "Sister-in-law, look, there are barracks over there."

She looked along Xiaohai's fingers, and found that the camp was much bigger than she had imagined, actually occupying two big hills.

"This is the regiment headquarters, and it used to be the regiment's dormitory building. Over there is the first company, and then there are the second company and the third company respectively. The regiment leader is usually in the regiment headquarters. When I came, he was on the playground. I don't know. Is it still there, let's go and see." Xiao Hai's pace sped up slightly.

Tao Zi also stepped up to follow.

Along the way, I would occasionally meet a few soldiers, and each of them would stop and salute her with a "snap", and then shout "Hello sister-in-law".

She felt surprised, "Xiao Hai, do they all know me?" By the way, she has been here for the past two days, and she just stays in the clinic...

Xiao Hai tried not to laugh, and wanted to say in his heart, sister-in-law, you have already been famous in the whole group these two days, but you can't say this, so you can only explain with a tense face, "Well... the habit of our army, No matter whose family members come, they will call sister-in-law..."

"Oh... that's right..." Tao Zi murmured and nodded.

"Sister-in-law, the playground is almost here, where is the team leader!" Xiao Hai pointed to the front.

Tao Zi narrowed his eyes, and saw him in the twilight, wearing winter uniforms instead of training uniforms, running around the playground. Against the backdrop of the twilight, the military uniform appeared a dull pale green, making his figure even more vigorous.He was running at full speed, like a frenzied wild horse, trying to burst out all the depression in his heart...

She was a little stunned. She thought that he was leading the soldiers in training, but she never thought that he was running here alone...

"Xiao Hai, has your regiment leader been punished too?" She felt that this was the only explanation.

Xiao Hai was also confused, "No! When I brought you the meal, the leader was standing alone on the playground... Besides... the leader was wearing regular clothes and leather shoes, why did he run away..."

Standing alone on the playground...

Tao Zi suddenly understood something...

He obviously had time, but he didn't go to the clinic to see her. She was still sick, so he didn't care at all?Rather run laps here in a daze?He really doesn't want to see her that much?Even if she traveled thousands of miles to see a friend, she would not receive such a cold reception...

An unspeakable bitterness surged in my heart, and I didn't move any closer, just stood silently far away from Xiao Hai, staring at the figure that was moving at such a fast speed, my heart, like a cocoon, was drawn by his figure, spinning round and round, peeling off the cocoon , more and more empty...

Finally, has he had enough venting, or is he tired of running?The footsteps slowed down, and he walked slowly to the center of the playground. Regardless of the fact that the playground was still dry after the rain, he lay down on his back.

The moment his body bottomed out, a certain place in her heart also collapsed with a bang...

The distance between her and him is not only the distance of the playground, but also the distance of Qianqi.Perhaps, at this moment, he was lying on the grass, with Qianqi lying beside him, and his heart and eyes were full of Qianqi, who she couldn't surpass...

There are two roads in front of her, one is to have self-knowledge like when she was 16 years old, turn around and retreat quietly, pretending that she has never been here; the other is to walk up and smash him and Qianqi into pieces. The chain between, forcibly intervening...

No matter which path she chooses, there is no doubt that her heart will be hurt.However, she is no longer a 16-year-old daughter. At that time, she didn't even have the courage to approach him. Today, since God sent him to her again, she must never miss it again!

Swallowing all the bitterness and pain, she gently said to Hao Xiaohai, "Xiao Hai, you go first, I will stay."

How old is he? "Yes, sister-in-law." Hao Xiaohai is also a sensible person, he guessed that the couple would be alone, and he would not be the light bulb, so he decisively disappeared.

She took a breath, to embolden herself, not in a hurry, and slowly, she walked towards him step by step.

He closed his eyes, and she walked to him, but he didn't open them. 13acv.

She couldn't believe that he didn't feel anything. Looking at the ground which was still wet and had puddles in some places, she hesitated a little and sat down.

"The floor is dirty!" Suddenly, an unhappy voice sounded.

Oh, I finally got to know her...

"Everything is in line with the chief!" She looked down at him, with bright smiles on her brows and lips, as if her sadness and depression just now had never happened.

He opened his eyes, his bright black eyes were extraordinarily bright under the twilight, "Get up!"

After speaking, he frowned and got up first.

He doesn't want any more jokes to spread in the group tomorrow, and the matter of the seasoning bag may have been laughed at for a few years... Today, Lao Yu dragged him into a heart-to-heart talk, and the first sentence he asked was, "I heard that you made it yesterday. Did your daughter-in-law faint from fright?"

I've never noticed that Xiao Hai's mouth is so big!

In the end, the political commissar gave him a lesson on how to love his wife...

If he sat with her in this muddy field, what joke would come out tomorrow morning.

"Where are you going?" There was already a lot of mud on her pants, she stretched out her hand to pat it, and her hands were also stained.

"Go back to the clinic!" He replied stiffly.

She was already used to his cold and hard attitude, and shouted behind him, "I'm not going! I'm fine! I've been lying down for two days and my bones hurt!"

He turned around, his eyes darkened.

She was really afraid that his next sentence would say "I'll take you home when I'm done", so she immediately waved her hands, "No! I won't go back to Beijing!"

In the end he was smiling, very shallow, she didn't even see it under the cover of night.

"Then what do you want to do?" He asked, with a touch of helplessness in his tone.

"I... just want to walk around and exercise my muscles." She heard that she didn't have to go back, so she happily trotted to him.

He let out a heavy breath, and she couldn't tell whether it meant he was angry or he couldn't do anything about her, anyway, he just heard him throw two words at her, "Let's go", as if throwing meat and bones to Beijing's Yan Zhuang That chow cub.

However, she was already very satisfied.

Follow him in the army, gradually walking farther and farther, getting darker and darker, and finally walked into a forest.

He kept silent and strode forward, and she still had to trot to keep up.

The night was so thick that only the last gray line remained, the woods were dark, and the road was almost invisible. She just followed his footsteps in front of her instinctively, and the surroundings were quiet, only the sound of their footsteps could be heard. , her heart was tight, and she looked around as she walked, wondering if something scary would come out of any corner.Well, if it was broad daylight, she wouldn't believe in supernatural beings, but the atmosphere was too weird...

Suddenly, there was a loud noise behind her, she couldn't hold on any longer, screamed "Ah", and rushed towards him in front.

When he heard the voice and just turned around, she threw herself directly into his arms, and didn't care about anything else, she just hugged his waist tightly, buried her head in his arms, trembling all over.

Everything is back to calm.

His voice sounded from above his head, "Maybe it's a hare or a pheasant, what's so scary with me here?"

She gradually calmed down, and suddenly remembered that many years ago, he hugged her like this and said, "With me here, they dare not bully you!"

In an instant, tears filled my eyes...

"No... I'm not afraid... It's just... I'm not mentally prepared..." She was a little choked up, and quietly wiped her tears on his clothes.

"You're still stubborn! You're trembling when you speak! How about we go back and forget it?"

"No!" She reacted violently.She didn't know where he was going to take her, but no matter where she went, she couldn't give up halfway and become a deserter!The first is not to let him underestimate her, and the second is that she tried every means to enter his world. Today might be a good start, so she shouldn't waste it!

"I won't go back! I won't!" She was still stubborn as usual, but she couldn't help but grasped his arm tightly, and didn't dare to let go.

He didn't say anything, didn't shake off her hand, let her hold her all the way, and continued walking.

After walking for about ten minutes, when they got out of the woods, their vision suddenly widened, as if they had reached the end of the mountain, and a large open space appeared. In the only gray light that remained, it could be seen that they were standing on the top of the mountain, and there was a long way to go. A boulder, and then there is a cliff.

She walked to the side of the stone and looked down. It was dark and deep at the bottom of the cliff, and the cold wind blew slowly. She was really worried that she would be blown down, so she quickly took a few steps back.

Looking into the distance, she saw only a dark and misty area. She thought, those mountains were all covered by thick fog, and she couldn't help pointing to the layers of darkness and asked, "How many meters above sea level is this place? Are all those mountains? "

"Yes! The place where we are standing has an altitude of over 3500." His voice sounded behind him, deep and deep.

She turned her back to him, and the voice lingered thickly behind her, like a warm wall that she could rely on and support her.

She was thinking, if she took a step back, would she be able to lean on his chest?

Hesitating, he already took a step forward and stood by her side, "Is it better?"

His voice is no longer so cold and hard. Although it is not gentle, it is very rare for him to talk to her like this.

She was a little flattered, and didn't realize what he asked her for a long time. Later, she finally figured it out. It turned out that she was asking if her health was better. She didn't know if it meant caring, but her heart was warmed at that moment. She is full, in fact, she is really not greedy, just such a casual greeting can satisfy her to this point, this is the first time since she came here that he asked her if she is okay...

"Well! It's much better! It's all right!" She nodded vigorously with tears in her eyes.

"Look at that rock." He pointed to the huge rock on the edge of the cliff and said, "Did you see it? There are many carvings on it."

He took out the lighter and lit it. In the bright light, he saw that the surface of the stone was painted in a mess. It was obvious that words were engraved on it, but it was all painted off.

"Why is that?" She touched the messy and irregular scratches with her hands, wondering who wrote on them but wanted to erase them all.

"This stone is called Wangwife Stone." He approached and stepped on it.

"Wife-watching stone?" She has only heard of husband-watching stone, okay?But it's understandable, this army is full of men, they naturally look at wives, but, is there any allusion?

But he really started to tell the story, "This is a story that has been passed down by the S regiment. Not long after the establishment of the S regiment, the wife of the regiment leader also came here with the army. At that time, there were still several households living near this hill. Ordinary people, once, when there was a mudslide, the S Regiment rescued itself and also rescued the nearby people. That time, the S Regiment made a great contribution, because miraculously, no ordinary people disappeared and died..."

His voice became low, and he didn't hear the joy and excitement that meritorious service stories should have. Tao Zi guessed something sensitively, and asked softly, "There are no casualties among ordinary people, but there are casualties among our own people, right?"

He glanced at her in surprise and nodded, "The regiment leader couldn't find his wife when he came back from the rescue... The officers and soldiers of the regiment went out to look for it, and vowed that even if they dug every inch of soil with their hands, they would give my sister-in-law back." It was dug out, but... two days later, the body of my sister-in-law was dug up under this cliff..."

That kind of night, that kind of wind, that kind of atmosphere, and the story he told in that tone made her already emotionally heavy, and gave her a deeper understanding of the distant profession of being a soldier.She didn't know why he would tell her such a story, but she grabbed his clothes and swore, "I understand. It's not easy to be a military wife. A soldier has a duty to be a soldier. Don't worry, I will never hold you back." Yes, I will also take care of myself so that you won't worry!" Having said this, his blood was surging, he raised his head, saw his eyes glowing brightly in the darkness, lowered his head again, and added shortly, " Of course, if you're worried..."

He didn't give her a positive answer. After a brief silence, he continued, "Later, it is said that women can often be heard singing in this place. There are rumors that it is my sister-in-law who sings to my brothers. Gradually, Some brothers who miss their homes and their wives come here and tell their sister-in-law what they miss their homes and their wives. How should I say it? Just engrave it on this stone. After the engraving, I am afraid that others will see the joke, so I will cross it out .”

"So, it's called Wangwife Stone?" She never thought that those tough-looking men could be so tender and delicate, so what about him?Did he also write Qianqi's name on a stone?

"Come on, stand up." He lowered the stone himself and gave her the seat.

She didn't know why, but obediently supported his arm and stood up. As far as she could see, it was still a black mist, and she couldn't see anything clearly.

"It's too dark now, I can't see much. On a clear day, you can stand here and see the road you came in. At a fixed time every day, there will be a mail delivery car coming in. If the letters from the soldiers arrive late, I'll just stand here and look forward to it." He held her up, his voice seemed to be covered with a layer of mist, and it was dreamy and lingering that he had never heard before.

She was stupefied and drunk. If this voice were on the show, how many literary and artistic young women would dream of it?

Can't help but turn around, looking for the owner of the voice.

Standing on the big rock, she was as tall as him, and it was the first time she could look directly into his eyes, the first time she saw them so clearly, even in the dark night, she could still see the light spots in his eyes , like the North Star, shining on her entire night sky.

She was suddenly hit by a demon, as if the North Star-like eyes had a gravitational force, drawing her towards him involuntarily, and finally, finally, her lips were stuck to his lips...
