Chapter 29
Another soldier came in for a physical examination outside the door. Ye Xingchen quickly regained his disturbed mind and returned to work.

There are not many people in the special brigade, but there are hundreds of people in total. Ye Xingchen is exhausted after a day, but no matter how tired he is, he is not tired. As long as she thinks of Lou Xi's ugly words, she His chest tightened in bursts.

The physical examination couldn't be completed in one day, so Ye Xingchen still lived in the barracks that night, but she lay on the bed for a long time, but still didn't feel sleepy. In order not to disturb her colleagues who lived in the same room, she simply got up and decided to take a walk downstairs.

It wasn't very late, it was not time to turn off the lights, and the small iron gate downstairs was not locked yet. Ye Xingchen walked out of the family courtyard and lingered under the moonlight.

The sky is a little gloomy, the mountains in the distance are covered with ash, the hustle and bustle of the city seems to be as far away as the last century, and the silence here is only the sound of the wind.

It may be for safety reasons, the surrounding environment is also empty, no trees, no flowers and plants, at first glance, there are bare concrete roads, the night is as dark as ink, and there is a faint chill, Ye Xingchen couldn't help but hugged his arms tightly.

Suddenly, there was a sound of footsteps behind her, she heard the sound and looked over, and saw a familiar face!Li Yi.

Because of the arrival of the medical staff, the troops stepped up their guard. Li Yi came out to patrol, but unexpectedly bumped into Ye Xingchen. He was slightly taken aback, "Doctor Ye? What are you doing here so late?"

"I... can't sleep, so I came out to get some air." Ye Xingchen suddenly became a little nervous, and asked timidly, "Is it because I can't walk around casually?"

Li Yi smiled awkwardly, "That's not true, it's just that it's better to be careful in this important military camp, otherwise it's easy to alarm the guards."

"Then I'll go back right away." Ye Xingchen said hastily, afraid that he might violate some discipline.

"Let me see you off!" Li Yi volunteered.

Ye Xingchen was worried that he would rush in again, so he didn't refuse.

The two walked towards the family courtyard together, but they had only taken two steps when they suddenly heard a gunshot in the extremely silent night sky!
Ye Xingchen suddenly broke into a cold sweat. Li Yi quickly comforted her and said, "It's okay, it's nothing. This is from No. 3 shooting range. Our battalion commander is practicing guns!"

Lou Xi?

Ye Xingchen's heart skipped a beat, "Is he still training at this late hour?"

"Well, this is a daily compulsory course for our battalion commander. It has been unshakable for three years!"

"Do all of you special forces do this?"

"No, only snipers need to practice guns every day." When the word "sniper" was mentioned, Li Yi's expression suddenly became a little unnatural.

Ye Xingchen also sensed something was wrong, and looked at Li Yi suspiciously. Li Yi held back for a long time, but finally couldn't hold back, and said to Ye Xingchen in a low voice, "Doctor Ye, I'm risking the risk of leaking military secrets with you. You can keep it a secret!"

Ye Xingchen's nerves tensed all of a sudden, and he nodded vigorously.

Li Yi acted like he was going all out, and said the secret that had been buried in his heart for a long time, "Three years ago, there was an ace sniper in our team. He and the battalion commander were the best partners. One was a sniper and the other was an assault vanguard. They We are invincible, we have experienced life and death together, and we have won many honors together, but... in an operation three years ago, people who had never failed before failed seriously, and Dorje and the others were also implicated. He was injured, and when he came back, the team summed up the reasons for the failure of the operation, and at the internal meeting, the battalion commander exposed the sniper in public, saying that he was taking drugs, and his drug addiction broke out during the operation, which led to the failure of the entire mission.”

"Drugs?" Ye Xingchen was surprised, but shook his head instinctively, "How is this possible? Your army management should be very strict! How could that person have the opportunity to take drugs?"

Li Yi sighed helplessly, "This is what makes people wonder. In the special brigade, even mosquitoes can't fly in. How could drugs be mixed in? Even I don't believe this is true, and others don't even believe it, so at the time There are some discussions, saying that the battalion commander squeezed out his comrades, took the credit and wanted to occupy the halo by himself, but the battalion commander is not that kind of person! Although the drug use is very strange, the battalion commander is definitely right, saying that the battalion commander If you have selfish intentions, I won’t believe it even if you kill me!”

"I don't believe it either!" Ye Xingchen blurted out without thinking, and asked again, "What happened next?"

"There was no later, that matter was strictly forbidden to be mentioned again by the order of the superiors, but since then, the battalion commander went to practice the gun alone every night, and no one knew what happened that year."

Li Yi stopped making a sound, and Ye Xingchen also fell into silence. An unspeakable emotion surged up in her heart, sour and astringent. She had seen Lou Xi's marksmanship with her own eyes. It turned out that it was really 1 minute on stage. After ten years of practice in the audience, she was deeply shocked by his superb marksmanship that night, but she couldn't imagine what kind of mood he had every night when he practiced the marksmanship.Can you practice so accurately?Is it because he once watched his brothers who fought shoulder to shoulder with him fall in a pool of blood, was he suffering, helpless, or even desperate?So in the end he can only punish and encourage himself in a crazy, even masochistic way?

Three years is not a short time. In the past 1000 dark nights, in the silent shooting range, are the sparks produced by the friction of the bullets hotter?Or is the icy cold wind colder?I'm afraid even he himself can't tell the difference?

Even though she didn't see his struggling and bewildered expression with her own eyes, just thinking about it made her choke up, her eyes were hot, and something was about to flow down.

Feeling that she was about to cry, she quickly shifted her emotions and asked casually, "What happened to that sniper?"

"I was fired, and then went into business, and now I am the president of Lingfeng Group."

what?
Ye Xingchen was dumbfounded all of a sudden, it turned out to be Zuo Lingfeng?
Suddenly, Ye Xingchen understood why Lou Xi and Zuo Lingfeng were so tit-for-tat when they met. It turned out that the rift between them was so deep.

She went to Duojie's hometown and met his elderly mother. She, an outsider who had never met before, couldn't help but feel sad when she saw the scene, let alone Lou Xi?He and Dorje are brothers and sisters, but in the end he watched him fall in front of him, how uncomfortable would that be?
She has seen Lou Xi's forbearance of being injured, and his superb marksmanship. What he usually shows is always a tough side, but she never thought that deep in his heart, there is also a fragile, untouchable He is a god in the hearts of the soldiers, but he is not a god, he is just an ordinary man, morality, kindness, and friendship are all deeply pierced in his heart.

When Dorje and the other four fighters and five lives were gone forever, the knot between Lou Xi and Zuo Lingfeng was tied, and it was a dead knot.Even though they were the best partners, and they went through life and death together, they still couldn't change the fate of being irreconcilable in the end. He personally expelled Zuo Lingfeng from the army, and the brothers became enemies from then on.

It's no wonder he would say such nasty things to her. The word Zuo Lingfeng was a thorn in his heart, and he couldn't stand it if he touched it lightly.

The night was as dark as ink, and gunshots echoed in the sky. The sound of Lou Xi's shooting was accompanied by gusts of night wind, sonorous and powerful. It was very clear in the quiet night, and it was very heart-warming. Ye Xingchen's eye sockets began to get a little wet.
