January 2002, 2, Spring Festival.

At 07:30 in the evening, Xu Tao sat in the audio-visual room and looked around. All the left-behind comrades were there, but there was no Meng Zhan. Thinking that Meng Zhan had something to do, Xu Tao waited for a while, but Xu Tao still didn’t watch it when the party started at [-] o’clock Seeing the figure of Meng Zhan, Xu Tao frowned. Xu Tao stood up, bent over and walked out. When he got to the door, he patted Wang Jin who was in the front row, "Tongzi, did you see Mengda?"

Wang Jin glanced back at Xu Tao and shook his head, "No, I guess I haven't come because of something." Xu Tao twitched the corner of his mouth and smiled, a trace of worry flashed in his eyes, "I'll go out and look for it."

After speaking, he turned and left. Wang Jin looked at Xu Tao's back and frowned deeply. It's not that he didn't know where Meng Zhan was, but Meng Zhan had solemnly warned them that no one was allowed to tell Xu Tao that he was Although Meng Zhan didn't say anything about the extra training at night, Meng Zhan suddenly had three times as many training items as the team members in the past two months, but Xu Tao's extra training stopped, and it just turned into targeted physical training. Even if Meng Zhan didn't explain the things around him, these comrades who got along day and night still understood.

Withdrawing his gaze towards the door, Wang Jin thought of Meng Zhan's big piece of peeled shoulder that he saw when he accidentally went to the bathroom in the middle of the night last night. He couldn't tell what it was like, and always felt a little weird.

Shaking his head to get rid of the weirdness, Wang Jin turned his eyes back to the TV. After sweeping his eyes, Wang Jin saw Liu Jianyang, the backup hygienist, and his eyes narrowed slightly. This person is not simple.

Xu Tao, who left the audio-visual room, went back to the dormitory first, knocked on the door and opened Meng Zhan's dormitory, looked at the empty dormitory Xu Tao turned and left, went to the office again, but there was still nothing, standing at the gate of the office building, Xu Tao wrinkled tightly Frowning, I suddenly felt a little flustered in my heart, as if consciously walking towards the training ground quickly, the pace became faster and faster, Xu Tao ran to the first training ground, no, the second training ground, no, third, fourth, all the time After running to the last No.12 training ground which is farthest from their dormitory and relatively biased, Xu Tao was stunned.

In the training ground, Meng Zhan, carrying a log on his shoulders and carrying a full load on his body, was sprinting fast. During the fast running, his figure jumped one obstacle after another, while Chen Guangfa, standing in the middle of the field, shouted loudly, "Accelerate, accelerate, time exceeds gone."

Xu Tao came back to his senses, rushed into the training ground and snatched the training outline that Chen Guangfa was holding in his hand, and quickly flipped through the paper in his hand under the light of the venue. The training plans that doubled one after another made Xu Tao feel a little dizzy in front of him. In the dark, Xu Tao finally understands why Meng Zhan has not been seen for more than two months, why Meng Zhan's dormitory is always empty no matter day or night, and even when eating, he is in a hurry.

Xu Tao felt a surge of anger rising from the bottom of his heart, and turned his head to look at Chen Guangfa who was standing beside him full of anger, "This is Meng Zhan's training plan? Why? Why is his training plan so much higher than others'?"

Xu Tao's angry question made Chen Guangfa's pent-up anger rise suddenly, "Why? If you want to ask why, you have to ask Xu Tao. You, Xu Tao, have no ability to persist in training. You can only make up for what you lack on Meng Da. After all, everyone knows that when participating in the big competition, health workers must participate, but you can't, so there needs to be someone who is responsible for taking you through all kinds of obstacles, you Xu Tao..."

"Chen Guangfa." A panting roar made Chen Guangfa shut up, and Xu Tao, who clearly heard Chen Guangfa's answer, felt a buzzing in his head, his eyes went black, and his whole body seemed to be poured with ice cold Cold water from head to toe, I closed my eyes hard, and when I opened it again, there was no anger on my face, and the excitement just now, I turned my head to look at Meng Zhan who rushed over, "Captain, what Chen Guangfa said is Really, the reason why my training program stopped is because you are responsible for my safety when I enter the field, and take me through the barriers at the same time."

Seeing Xu Tao's extremely calm tone and expression, Meng Zhan felt a little heavy in his heart. He threw the log on the ground and took a deep breath, "No, Team Zhou and the instructor think that the hygienist has only one responsibility after research, that is, For field ambulance, as long as you do your duty, that's enough, there's no need for those extra training."

Xu Tao looked at Meng Zhan who was gasping for an explanation, and then glanced at Chen Guangfa who was obviously contradicting. He didn't speak, but just slowly recalled, recalling all the things he had neglected since he stopped training, Xu Tao Suddenly, I remembered that every time I met Liu Jianyang in the cafeteria, Liu Jianyang would leave the training ground with a little mocking eyes and occasionally leave the training ground. When passing by the replacement training ground, he would glance over the training content. What was Liu Jianyang doing at that time?Xu Tao calmed down and thought about it, training, Liu Jianyang is practicing more, and practicing those tasks that he can't complete.

At this moment, Xu Tao understood that he enjoyed this special treatment not because the team agreed with Meng Zhan's point of view, but because Meng Zhan replaced him. It's just targeted physical training, so I have the leisure to stop the training program by myself.

Xu Tao, who wanted to understand everything, felt a bang, as if his heart had exploded, took a deep breath, took a deep look at Meng Zhan, Xu Tao turned and walked outside the training ground.

"Xiao Tao." Meng Zhan grabbed Xu Tao's arm, Xu Tao looked at Meng Zhan calmly, showing a smile, "Meng Zhan, I'm fine, I'm tired, I'll go back and rest."

After speaking, he lowered his head and glanced at the arm held by Meng Zhan. Meng Zhan's heart seemed to sink to the bottom of the valley at Xu Tao's glance, and he loosened his fingers slightly. Xu Tao smiled, pulled out his arm and turned away, watching Xu Tao still straight Back, Meng Zhan had some bad premonition in his heart.

"Meng Da." There was a calm voice in his ear. Meng Zhan suppressed the sudden anger in his heart and turned to look at Chen Guangfa, "Are you stimulated? You don't know what Xiaotao is like, or don't you know?" , if there is any hope that he will be more ruthless than anyone else, did you not see the training of the first three months or are you blind?"

Chen Guangfa frowned, "Captain, I know as much about Taozi as you do. If it's okay, then it's okay. We've been together for so long, don't I want him to be brilliant? Don't I want him to make meritorious service? No, really. Bringing Xu Tao to the competition site, one mistake, Tao Zi will die there, I would rather Tao Zi understand the real situation now, and I don’t want you to fool him into letting him die in the competition.”

Meng Zhan took a deep breath and stared at Chen Guangfa. Chen Guangfa did not dodge and let Meng Zhan stare at him. Chen Guangfa always disagreed with Meng Zhan's overloaded training during this period, let alone selfishness. Meng Zhan was much more important to him than Xu Tao. To put it bluntly, if Meng Zhan and Xu Tao fell off the cliff at the same time, Chen Guangfa would only reach out and grab Meng Zhan first.

Meng Zhan's persistence and concealment Chen Guangfa will not take the initiative to say it, but not taking the initiative does not mean that he will not seize the opportunity when it is in front of him, and during this period of time he has deliberately watched the training results of the backup Liu Jianyang. It is undeniable that Liu Jianyang is indeed better than Xu Tao It is more suitable to participate in the competition. Xu Tao's foundation is too poor, and this gap cannot be made up in a short time. Chen Guangfa does not regret what he said today. , completely let Xu Tao see clearly.

When Meng Zhan withdrew his eyes and turned around, he glanced at Chen Guangfa. The indifference in this glance made Chen Guangfa startled, "Meng Da."

Chen Guangfa yelled subconsciously, Meng Zhan paused slightly, turned around and looked at Chen Guangfa, "Do you think you did the right thing? Do you think you have done justice for me? You said you knew Xu Tao, you I feel like telling Xu Tao now that Xu Tao understood earlier that he would at least save his life by quitting earlier, but Chen Guangfa, do you really understand Xu Tao? Xu Tao would rather die on the field than want your self-righteous pity. I know that during this time, You have all seen and studied Liu Jianyang's training results. It is undeniable that they are indeed much better than Xu Tao, and even reached the standard of ordinary combatants. Many of these participants think that Liu Jianyang is more suitable for participating in the competition. Since you are so I think, let’s inform all the contestants to enter the mountain for a three-day wilderness survival, and you, Chen Guangfa, will lead the team and start at [-] o’clock tomorrow morning, health worker.” Meng Zhan paused for a moment, showing a mocking smile, "Liu Jianyang."

After speaking, he turned around and left the training ground. Meng Zhan's words made Chen Guangfa frowned deeply. After a while, Chen Guangfa withdrew his thoughts, put away the outline in his hand, left the training ground, returned to the audio-visual room, and brought all the contestants After finding the dormitory and sitting in the dormitory, Chen Guangfa said the matter, the voice just fell, "bang", Chen Guangfa felt pain on the right side of his face, and quickly reached out to block Wang Jin's arm that was swung again, " what the fuck are you doing?"

Chen Guangfa yelled at Wang Jin, and pushed Wang Jin away with a flick of his arm. Wang Jin glared at Chen Guangfa with red eyes, "Who do you think you are? Why do you point fingers and think that this is not okay and that is wrong?" No way? How much effort Xu Tao has put in? You are fucking blind. You can’t see. Liu Jianyang is so good. Why don’t you apply to lead the team to participate in the competition yourself? Let me tell you, Chen Guangfa, that Xu Tao has given much more than what you have seen." After speaking, Wang Jin turned around and slammed the door and left.

Chen Guangfa rubbed his face and looked at the swaying door panel thrown by Wang Jin, kicked the cabinet angrily, walked back and forth twice, suddenly stopped and looked at Yang Shilong, Tang Weihua, and Yu Liang, with a little dissatisfaction. Sure, "You think I'm wrong too?"

Several people didn't speak, and Yu Liang raised his head to look at Chen Guangfa for a while, "Da Guang, why do you think Xu Tao can't do it?"

Chen Guangfa rubbed his face, sat on the stool, and leaned back, "It's not that I think Xu Tao is not good, and we have been together for a long time. It's not that I can't see how Xu Tao is doing, but the competition subjects are there. , four days and three nights 200 km raid, not to mention the time and distance, it is the obstacles and pursuers encountered along the way, do you think Xu Tao can do it? If there is trouble, he will die."

"Actually, I also think that Liu Jianyang's grades are much better than Xu Tao's." "I disagree. I have been with Taozi for so long. I haven't made any mistakes since Taozi followed the mission. Liu Jianyang's training results are good. But the training performance does not mean that there is a complete tacit understanding in cooperation." Those who agreed and those who disagreed, in the small dormitory, except for Meng Zhan and Wang Jin, the rest of the participants began to argue.

Xu Tao, who left the training ground, did not go back to the dormitory, but walked slowly directly against the wall. Chen Guangfa's words kept echoing in his heart, and Xu Tao felt as if his heart was burning. One step, until today, Xu Tao didn't have any tricks or shortcuts. Every step he took was achieved by his own efforts. The only time that the pie fell was indeed the case. Xu Tao didn't understand and didn't know it was It's not that people like myself are destined to have no shortcuts, is it that people like him must strive for and work hard on a down-to-earth basis.

I don't know how long it took, Xu Tao carefully weighed himself and Liu Jianyang together in his heart. Although he didn't want to admit it, Xu Tao had to face the facts before him. Liu Jianyang was indeed more suitable and more suitable than himself. After being able to complete this task, he raised his head and looked at the sky. At some point, the snowflakes began to flutter in the sky. Xu Tao let out a long breath, suppressed the unwillingness and sourness in his heart, and showed a smile.

Looking back, Xu Tao walked slowly towards the dormitory floor, pushed open the bedroom door, Xu Tao saw Meng Zhan sitting by the bed, Xu Tao paused, walked into the room and closed the door, walked to Meng Zhan and sat down , "Captain, go back and rest, I'm tired after a day of training."

Meng Zhan didn't speak, he grabbed Xu Tao's cold hands, held them in his palms and rubbed them gently, Xu Tao suddenly felt a little sore in his heart when he looked at the clasped hands, pulled the corners of his mouth and smiled, and twitched his palms A slight pain came, and Xu Tao felt the palm of Meng Zhan's force, "Captain, let go, what does it look like for two big men to hold hands."

Meng Zhan looked up at Xu Tao, Xu Tao just quietly let Meng Zhan look at him, Meng Zhan sighed, "Xiao Tao, have you decided?"

Xu Tao smiled, pulled out his palm, rubbed his body back, and leaned against the wall, "Captain, I thought about it carefully, and at the same time compared me and Liu Jianyang, whether I want it or not, facts are facts. I am indeed not as good as Liu Jianyang, it is undeniable that I am not reconciled, but what if I am not reconciled? This competition is to represent the country and represent our military region, is it because I, Xu Tao, drag the entire team down?"

Meng Zhan didn't speak, just looked at Xu Tao quietly, looking at the sadness hidden under the smile on Xu Tao's face, Meng Zhan stretched out his hand and pressed Xu Tao's eyes, Xu Tao, who was covered by half of his face, continued, " Captain, it's my regret that I can't fight side by side with you, but at the same time, as a soldier, I understand what honor is. It's not that I don't want to participate in the competition or want to be a deserter, but I can't be selfish and pretend that I can't see the gap between me. You can’t just pretend that what happened didn’t happen.”

Xu Tao, who said these words, suppressed the pain in his heart when he made the decision to give up. It hurts, it hurts, but no one can hide the fact. Thinking of this, Xu Tao smiled softly. With the laughter, he followed Meng Zhan's finger For Xu Tao, who has always valued olive green more than his life, it was an unbearable pain for a soldier, an active soldier, to make a decision to desert.

The heat coming from the palm made Meng Zhan's eyes slowly well up with anger and the exhaustion rising from the bottom of his heart. How could this fool make such a decision?So what are the efforts you have made during this time?

Slowly spit out the anger suppressed in the bottom of my heart, "Xiao Tao, what is the most important to you?"

Meng Zhan's hoarse voice sounded low, and Xu Tao sniffled, "This military uniform is the most important, and my sister is the most important."

Xu Tao's answer made Meng Zhan close his eyes, took a deep breath, and opened his eyes again with a trace of madness in Meng Zhan's eyes, "Where am I? Then what am I to you? Comrade? Brother? Brother? Or leader? "The hoarse and astringent voice sounded again, and Xu Tao paused.

Meng Zhan's question made Xu Tao not understand, what is it?He has never thought about what Meng Zhan is to him. He seems to have all the characters Meng Zhan mentioned, but there seems to be something missing?

Xu Tao's silence made Meng Zhan's heart sink, his eyes darkened, he withdrew his palms that blocked Xu Tao's eyes, grabbed Xu Tao's arms, moved his head over, and stared at Xu Tao, "Xiao Tao, you know that for me What are you?" The tone was much lowered, with no hidden danger and a trace of madness.

Xu Tao, who has always been dull, suddenly panicked at this moment. He had a premonition that Meng Zhan's answer would change something. He pulled out his arm vigorously and pushed Meng Zhan away, "Captain, I want to sleep, you go back and rest."

After speaking, he pulled the quilt in a panic and was about to hide it. Meng Zhan threw the quilt out, overturned Xu Tao on the bed, pressed on Xu Tao, fixed Xu Tao's head with both hands, and lowered his head with anger. Si suppressed her mind and kissed Xu Tao's lips frantically.

Xu Tao was completely dumbfounded by Meng Zhan's actions. His wide eyes couldn't react at all. I don't know how long it took, maybe 1 minute or 10 minutes. Xu Tao suddenly woke up and began to struggle violently. He wanted to speak, but his mouth Xu Tao, who was blocked tightly and couldn't break free, slowly filled with anger in his eyes.

The taste was better than imagined, so that the anger in Meng Zhan's heart slowly subsided, and his reason slowly returned with the entanglement of lips and tongue. He opened his eyes and looked at Xu Tao's eyes full of anger under him, and a flash of anger flashed in Meng Zhan's eyes. Smiling and determined, he raised his head slightly, and before Xu Tao could speak, he lowered his head again and held Xu Tao's lips in his mouth, while kissing, while sweeping back and forth with the tip of his tongue in his mouth, while Xu Tao's eyes under him were slightly broken, , Wrapped the tip of Xu Tao's tongue and brought it back to the mouth, sucking back and forth lightly and heavily.

Xu Tao's brain was a little hypoxic after being kissed. Xu Tao, who didn't know how to breathe through his nose, felt that his mind was in a mess. Why did it become like this?what is this?Xu Tao didn't know what to do at all, because he himself was completely blank about this aspect. Li Jianhua and Lu Jianbo suddenly flashed in his mind. Xu Tao, who didn't even have shoes on, was grabbed by Meng Zhan, who had reacted instantly, before he could run away, and hugged him tightly in his arms.

Xu Tao was afraid, and there was an uncontrollable fear in his heart. This is wrong, this is not something he can bear, the more he understands, the more scared Xu Tao is, he bent his arm and hit Meng Zhan's rib with his elbow hard. Next, Meng Zhan frowned slightly, hugged Xu Tao tightly and let Xu Tao struggle but never let go.

Meng Zhan has a feeling that if he lets go at this time, what is waiting for him is definitely a result that he is unwilling and unable to accept. Meng Zhan understands Xu Tao, and only by subduing Xu Tao once so that he cannot escape can he get the result he wants. It's the pain, the more consciously he endured the pain from his ribs and the bumps one after another.
