Amazing Witch Doctor

Chapter 88 Barracks
Lancao was shocked when he actually saw the old soldiers enjoying the coolness under the grape arbor in the quiet courtyard!
Obediently!Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable, is this the rhythm of what one wishes come true?
This vicissitudes of life veteran with a square and majestic face and stubborn eyes, looking at her and Comrade Wu Dazhu with gossip at the moment, is so similar to someone in his uncle's photo!Well, except a lot older.Of course, if you are not old, you must not be that person!

Wu Zhan walked a little ahead of Lancaoxin, and didn't notice anything unusual about Lancaoxin. At the moment, he was laughing and leaning towards the old leader while secretly giving Lancaoxin a wink, his mouth moving silently, expressing his words with his lips. A sentence: "She is related to the desert murder."

Lan Caoxin only felt that the banter and gossip in the vicissitudes of life veteran's eyes suddenly deepened, and disappeared for a moment, and the next moment there was nothing but a smile in his eyes, and he couldn't see anything anymore.But she didn't care to pay attention to that much at the moment, and hurriedly caught up with two steps, and asked with bright eyes: "May I take the liberty to ask, did you serve in the 18th Army at the foot of Kunlun Mountain 69 years ago?" soldiers?"

The old soldier was slightly surprised, and he glanced at Wu Zhan, but Wu Zhan was more puzzled than him, and the laughter on his face disappeared.

Lancao didn't care about him, and only looked at the old hero with hope.Seeing him nodding, he hummed, and asked anxiously: "Then the unit you were serving at that time was the second squadron of the first battalion, third company, fifth platoon, infantry and tank regiment? Do you know Lin Jingyi from the second squad?"

The old soldier stood up in a jerk, his right leg swayed and almost fell, Wu Zhan quickly supported him, looked at Lan Caoxin in surprise and then at the old leader.

The veteran's face was extremely excited at this time, and the surprise and hope on his face were much more than that of Lan Caoxin, "Are you Lin Jingyi's girl?"

Lancao Xin nodded and shook her head violently: "He is my uncle. I have been raised at his house since I was 5 years old, basically regarded as an adopted daughter." Seeing the surprised looks of the two, thinking that adopting a daughter is rare these days , it is inevitable that people find it weird, Lan Caoxin drooped her eyes, and added with a smile when she looked up again: "I am an abandoned baby, and my adoptive parents treated me badly, so my aunt and uncle took me and grandma. Uncle also has another My daughter, named Lin Ling, is 15 years old and is a sophomore in high school."

This was a painful thing that she didn't want to mention to others.But the old hero in front of her had the same mountain-like uprightness and intimacy as her uncle, which made her say so without hesitation.

The veteran and Wu Zhan were speechless for a while, Lan Caoxin deepened his smile, and reported the good news to his uncle's comrade-in-arms in a happy tone: "My uncle has also come to Hotan! The hotel we live in is not far from here. He's out on business now, and when he comes back, I'll bring him to see you."

This time Lin Jingyi originally came to help her under the guise of looking for a comrade-in-arms half-truth, who would have thought that she would really dig out a comrade-in-arms?Uncle will find out after a while, so I'm afraid he will come running to meet you, right?
"No, just tell me his phone number now. Where is he, I'll go find him right away." The old man obviously couldn't wait, and went to the house to make a call after asking for the phone.He walked with a slight limp, which became more pronounced when he was in a hurry.Wu Zhan wanted to help him, but he refused by waving his hands, and ordered without looking back: "Stay with this girl for me!"

Lan Caoxin took her worried gaze away from the old man's lame leg, smiled and waved at Wu Zhan: "Don't worry about me, I'll just sit by myself under this grape trellis for a while."

Wu Zhan moved a small stool for Lan Caoxin to sit down, and took a small stool beside him: "The old captain gave an order, I have to obey him."

Seeing that the old soldier had already entered the house, Lan Caoxin didn't force her, put her hands on her knees and said with a smile: "You old leader is really short-tempered. My uncle will be back in less than an hour. He must be on the way right now. Where can I find it? My uncle's temper really doesn't look like it at all!"

Wu Zhan looked at her, his eyes were a little searching, a little soft, and he wanted to say something but didn't say it.

Lancao Xin saw it, and asked him with a smile: "What's wrong with Captain Wu, he hesitated to speak?"

Wu Zhan took a deep look at her, then suddenly reached out and patted her on the shoulder, and said slowly and gently: "From now on, don't laugh when you feel sad, it's ugly."

Lan Caoxin's heart froze, and the corners of her mouth twitched, but this time she didn't smile, she lowered her head and buried her face in her lap.Wu Zhan hesitated for a while, took back all the words he wanted to comfort, and sat quietly with her under the green grape arbor.

After a long time, before the phone call in the room was finished, Lan Caoxin raised her face from her knees and smiled at Wu Zhan: "I don't see, you are quite good at coaxing people. I don't think you should be the captain, you should be the captain." Instructor."

"The trainer should cry when he hears this." Wu Zhan made a helpless expression, "I robbed his captain as soon as I came, and if I rob him again, he will have to work hard with me!"

Blue Grass Heart let out a "puchi" laugh.The two laughed and chatted, the sadness and company just now were blown away like a breeze, and no one mentioned it.

After the phone call in the room was over, the excited veteran also came out to join the chat between the two, and Lan Caoxin knew the story of Lin Jingyi, an old comrade-in-arms named Zhuang Kang.He and Lin Jingyi were soldiers in the same squad and slept in the same dormitory. Zhuang Kang had a straightforward personality, while Lin Jingyi had a calm and introverted personality. At the beginning, the two of them were particularly at odds. According to Zhuang Kang's words, the most annoying thing was Lin Jingyi's hypocrisy look.

But after time deduction, the experience again and again made the two of them become the best brothers.Zhuang Kang wanted to be a scout, and Lin Jingyi fell in love with the female postman who happened to meet on the train. This is a secret shared between only two people.

Later, when the army was about to be promoted, Lin Jingyi gave up. He has always been unwavering in his decision. He said that he wanted to change jobs, and the first thing after changing jobs was to find the female postman. You must marry someone as quickly as possible, and never give anyone a half chance.

Lin Jingyi said that if he let that girl hang around outside for one more day, he would worry about it one more day, and he had to get her into his bag quickly. Only his heart that had been beating in a panic for more than a year could be safely settled in his chest.

As for Zhuang Kang, he was successfully promoted, joined the reconnaissance company, and joined the special forces all the way. Later, he married a local girl who was rescued in distress.In the third year of marriage, his wife was pregnant. He was so happy that he rushed to the army to share the good news with him. As a result, there was a car accident on the road, killing two people.From then on, Zhuang Kang never married again.

Zhuang Kang said this in a calm tone, saying that he was almost crazy back then.Lan Caoxin was about to shed tears when she heard that, but Zhuang Kang touched her head and said meaningfully: "My heart hurts, but it will be better. The pain is for children to grow up. Girl, it hurts." It'll be fine once it's over, huh?"
