"Which direction is that over there?" Xiao Liu, who was sitting at the door, pointed to the direction where the birds were flying in the sky and asked Wang Ze next to him.
"Northwest." Wang Ze took the luncheon meat handed over by his comrade-in-arms, dug a spoon, and handed it to Xiao Liu. Xiao Liu waved his hand, but did not accept it.It was surprisingly quiet today, and the soldiers who needed to take exams and took turns this afternoon took advantage of their leisure time to form a small party for snacks.
Snack gatherings can also be regarded as a way for the boys to vent. There is no wine but there are old godmothers, eating, drinking and chatting, which can be regarded as relaxing.Today, Wang Wang is also lying at the door, looking like "everyone is playing with me as a doorkeeper".Most of the beef jerky that Xiao Liu got was given to Wang Wang.
Since the establishment of the study group, small snack gatherings are held once a week.It was also this small gathering that made Xiao Liu discover the commonality between Wang Ze and Xiao Wang. They really love snacks. From noon to now, they have never heard of chirping, chirping like a little squirrel. Clicking and clicking.
"You like to eat snacks so much in the army." Xiao Liu looked at Wang Ze's peanuts one after another, and couldn't help asking, and the barking next to him followed suit.
"That's right, our brother Wang eats snacks so cute. Every Saturday and Sunday when the counselor checks, you can see him sitting and eating." The little soldier next door booed, and was blasted away by Wang Ze.
"Brother Wang" reminded Xiao Liu of the "Brother Dog" that Xiao Wang was called when he was in school.
"Eat something, Brother Liu, you haven't eaten since you came back from a busy schedule." Seeing that Xiao Liu doesn't eat meat, Wang Ze handed over peanuts and steamed buns with Laoganma.
Xiao Liu still smiled and shook his head: "I can't eat it."
Yes, I really can’t eat. I have no appetite for more than ten hours in front of the bloody body and the smelly corpse in the hot place.Three days ago, there was another terrorist attack. Several fighters from the Gallic Chicken next door were caught in the flames and burned to black coals.This time when he was escorted back, Xiao Liu washed for a long time, but he didn't know if the smell on his body was gone.The soldiers did not despise themselves, and Xiao Liu was very grateful.
"I said Brother Liu, you are too honest. Let Xiao Bo go as an escort next time, why is it always you, how dangerous it is outside now."
"Isn't it the same for anyone, not to mention I'm not alone." Xiao Liu smiled, picked up a piece of beef jerky and rewarded Wang Wang who was drooling all over the floor.
Recently, Xiao Liu has been really busy like a dog.
In the past week, the eastern theater was in a state of emergency. Our camp alone received 15 wounded soldiers, and countless refugees were injured due to terrorist attacks.
Due to the tense situation, the free clinic activities were also stopped.
As Xiao Liu said, some things are better not done in the first place.The popularity of the free clinic, which has been accumulated with great difficulty, has been canceled for a while, and the public complained, and the support it had gained quickly disappeared.
Where there is an explosion, there are casualties.The container used as a mortuary roars every day, as if mourning for the soldiers who lost their lives in Africa.The day before yesterday, a team that was performing a peacekeeping mission encountered a sudden attack. Among the more than 20 people, 4 died and 15 were seriously injured.
After a day of rescue, several soldiers still died in this land.Xiao Liu followed the airport responsible for sending the remains of several wounded and dead to Gaulji and transported them to the rear.
Over there, it was not easy for the Gallic chickens stationed at the airport. Along the way, Xiao Liu found that the children who had gathered around in the past had disappeared, and there were bomb craters and burn marks everywhere.
This small African country has a small land, but all bad things have happened.Terrorist attacks, tribal conflicts, refugee immigration, and deadly viruses, everyone feels powerless in the face of this troubled land.
Now, every day the bombs at the airport in the direction of Gallic Chicken are crackling. Staying here, Xiao Liu, who used to tremble when he heard the sound of firecrackers, has begun to feel indifferent to the explosion.But today, without the explosion, everyone felt quiet and suffocated.
The occasional Gallic chicken patrol helicopter flying over the camp is like the only ripple in this dead water.
"Wang Ze, where is this bird flying?" Xiao Liu asked again, pointing to the smaller bird in the sky.
Wang Ze picked up the binoculars and looked at it: "Our house is in the northeast. Brother Liu, you are amazing. After reading so many books, your eyes are still so good."
Wang Ze, who grew up in the imperial capital, has a special skill, he can tell the north, south, east, and west by just looking at it.There is a rumor that "birds can see magnetic lines of induction". Xiao Liu doesn't know whether Wang Ze can see it, but this guy's ability to distinguish directions is comparable to a compass.
"Brother Liu, why are you looking at these?" A soldier who was struggling with math problems raised his head and asked.
"I want to go home."
"Oh, I want to see my sister-in-law." The little soldiers envied and hated, after all, except for Xiao Liu, everyone here is single.Although everyone was curious, they all refrained from pestering Xiao Liu to see photos of "sister-in-law". The only thing they knew was that Xiao Liu's "mother-in-law" had a cat and a dog, because there were some on the screen of Xiao Liu's mobile phone.
Xiao Liu turned the ring on his hand and nodded, "Yes."
"Brother Liu, when we go back to the imperial capital, let's bring my sister-in-law out for a gathering." Wang Ze walked to Xiao Liu's side, and did not forget to add: "Does my sister-in-law have any younger siblings?"
"Has a brother."
"Hey, it's a pity..." Obviously, Wang Ze didn't notice Xiao Liu's weird expression.
"Then Brother Liu, do you have younger siblings?" Wang Ze, who did not give up, added.
"Hey hey hey~~ Brother Wang, what are you doing? You want to get married with Brother Liu." The people around were booing, but suddenly someone added: "I want to know too."
Knowing that this person is good, I feel that this person's family is also very good, just like getting married. Xiao Liu believes that this simple logic is harmless.
"Yes, half-brothers and sisters, but I don't know them well, the children of my mother's remarriage."
"Brother Liu's parents divorced, when?" A little soldier asked.
"When I was very young."
"Is your father married?"
"No, he's dead." Yes, he's dead, both the adoptive father and the biological father are dead.
As soon as these words came out, everyone was a little embarrassed.
"Hey, hey, let me tell you, can you chat? If you don't know how to chat, don't talk." Seeing that the atmosphere is not right, Wang Ze quickly interjected: "We can't control the parents' affairs, so don't be biased.. ...Don't you see that I am also sunny, healthy, lively and cute!...don't be prejudiced." After Wang Ze finished speaking, there was boos around him, and Wang Ze "hummed", which made Xiao Liu think of Wang Guangming.
Not long after his father left, Wang Ze was alive and kicking. Xiao Liu understood that it wasn't that he didn't miss his father, but that he covered up his sorrow with happiness.
At the beginning of January, winter in the north is not over yet, and some of the long-distance migratory birds have already flown north.
"These birds started flying so early. Is it cold when they get home? Are you in a hurry to celebrate the New Year?" Wang Ze hecked, turning his head to see Xiao Liu's face darkened.
"Generally, migratory birds fly about 180-300 kilometers a day, and when they reach Northern Europe and our country, they are basically 1 kilometers upward, and it takes about a month to fly." Birds do not have planes, and humans need 24 hours to fly. They alone Xiao Liu couldn't imagine how much perseverance it would take to fly back with a pair of wings.
"It's amazing." Wang Ze quickly took out a piece of paper and calculated it. Looking at the numbers he got, Xinsheng admired them.
"After all, going home is an instinct!"
I don't know who said this sentence, Xiao Liu was taken aback.instinct?Xiao Liu never thought about this problem.
For so many years, whether it is habit or instinct.Xiao Liu didn't know why he missed Xiao Wang so much.Now I probably understand that the fear of missing out, the fear of never returning, the entanglement of youth, in the face of life and death, seem to be a little sick.
Still very young, with a lot of time left, Xiao Liu looked at the group of children in the room who were immersed in their studies, stroked his vicissitudes of life thermos, and smiled.
Not long ago, two notices flew in, which aroused the great fighting spirit of this group of children. Some were admitted to the Command Academy, and some were admitted to the Artillery Academy. They are all good schools.With goals and fighting spirit, there is room for improvement. As long as the group of children in front of them study hard, their future should be bright.
At dinner, everyone still had dinner together. Facing the nutritious and tasty food, everyone was imagining the delicacies of their hometown.For this group of boys in their early 20s, there must be more than a dozen of them who can't eat enough. They eat snacks in the afternoon and eat in the evening.Watching them eat, Xiao Liu wondered if he was the same back then?Seeing that everyone gave Wang Ze the ribs, Xiao Liu did the same.When the meat was put into the bowl, Xiao Liu remembered the days when everyone brought him vegetables. People love to remember when they are old.
In fact, there were very few people who contacted Xiao Liu. The class leader Bu He's child went to kindergarten, and Lu Qing resigned and went to sea.For the rest, Xiao Liu didn't know each other, and sometimes he couldn't remember the names when he heard them.In life, too many people just want to form an accompaniment in your music. You know their existence, and the past is gone.
I'm going home soon, the recent food is quite good, there used to be a lot of meat, but now it's basically hard dishes.The boys who have sex with each other are so happy.
“I want to eat dumplings~~”
“I want to eat hot pot~~”
"I want to have a skewer."
"I'm going to eat DQ when I go back."
"Cut~~~ Are you promising? I'll treat you to Hagen Xs when I go back!"
The boys talk to each other, discussing the gluttonous life after returning to China.Unlike everyone else, Xiao Liu really wanted to go home and cook for Xiao Wang.
Xiao Liu, who was thinking about what material to use, suddenly felt that there was no sound around him. When he recovered, he found that everyone was looking at him.
"Brother Liu, what are you thinking?"
"No, I think this spine is pretty."
As soon as the words came out, there was silence in the room.
Ah, this scene seems to have happened back then.
After dinner, the children went to stand guard, and Xiao Liu also returned to the duty room. He will be on night shift tonight.
The night is not yet deep, people are already quiet.Hearing the sound, Xiao Liu saw the interpreter Xiao Mao pushing the door and coming in.
"What's wrong? It's uncomfortable there."
"Brother Liu!" Xiao Mao quickly walked over and took Xiao Liu's hand: "You really want to go."
"Yes."
"It's dangerous, don't you know?"
"Understood, don't you want to go too?" After saying this, thinking about the group of children today, Xiao Liu firmly said: "It's okay, everyone will protect me."
