march to victory

"It wasn't very majestic just now, but now it's all drowned...Old Zhou, don't squat here, why don't you wipe your head with your handkerchief? If you catch a cold, you will be in trouble."

When they were arguing just now, Zhou Baoyu and Zhou Ping didn't feel cold, but now they stop, it's okay!Both of them were so cold that they didn't even have time to wipe their bodies, so they put on their big leather coats and kept shaking—except for the Tibetan clothes they were wearing, and their respective military uniforms on their horses, the three of them had only their respective uniforms. A large leather jacket big enough to be worn as a quilt and a skirt.

Zhang Qingshan complained while wiping Zhou Baoyu's head with his face-washing handkerchief, and by the way urged Zhou Ping, who was squatting on the ground to smoke.

Seeing Zhou Ping walking towards his two horses tremblingly, Zhang Qingshan put the handkerchief on Zhou Baoyu's head: "I told you two to stop making trouble, it's so cold now... What are you looking at, you're not happy Wipe your hair clean? Do you really want to catch a cold and have a fever?"

After speaking, he walked towards the place where Zhou Baoyu and Zhou Ping undressed.

Picking up the wet clothes they had taken off, they found a cleaner puddle, washed them, and suddenly exclaimed: "When did my old mother lose her head!"

As soon as the words fell, he felt his shoulders being pushed, causing him to fall directly into the puddle in a fallen posture.

have to!The three of them could only wear big leather jackets—the military uniforms they were wearing were really tattered, and they were reluctant to break them here. Besides, in this no-man's land, it really made no difference whether they wore military uniforms or not.Or after walking out of the grass, put on the military uniform to contact the organization.

"Look, the two of you started a fight, which made me unlucky too. No, you two did it on purpose, and you insisted on making me become such a loser..."

After 10 minutes, the three started again.

What's interesting is that the current atmosphere is a bit weird: Zhou Ping and Zhou Baoyu are in a good mood now, but when the two looked at each other, they immediately separated, feeling a little unconvinced.And Zhang Qingshan has been aggrieved for 10 minutes - the key is that these two bastards are arrogant all the way, without any intention of apologizing, and Zhang Qingshan is not used to persecuting them, so he can only use words to revenge and vent his inner feelings depressed.

"Old Zhang, stop nagging, you will become an old woman if you keep nagging."

Hearing Zhang Qingshan's nagging at the beginning, Zhou Ping still wanted to laugh more and more, especially when he thought of Zhang Qingshan falling into the water, scolding and glaring, but he looked depressed and helpless, the more he wanted to laugh.But if you hear too much about anything, you will get annoyed.No, Zhou Ping couldn't bear Zhang Qingshan's nagging along the way, so he replied subconsciously.Fortunately, Zhang Qingshan's anger was immediately detonated, allowing him to find a vent.

Zhang Qingshan, who was muttering and cursing, immediately turned up the volume n times in a rage, with a bit of grief in his tone: "Zhou Ping! Don't complain to me there, damn it, I will give you this kindly!" Washing clothes, but you? You don’t appreciate me, but I kicked me into the puddle with one kick. In this world, are there comrades like you? You still have the face to say that I am complaining, and I am like you The two bastards made it clear that today's matter will never end, you two bastards will wait for me, and I will take revenge for this tone."

After yelling, he raised his clenched fist and shouted loudly: "Definitely!"

With that kind of grief and indignation, those who watched were afraid that he would cry out of anger.

On the other hand, Zhou Baoyu and Zhou Ping pouted at the same time, and then continued to move forward cheerfully. They didn't bother to talk to Zhang Qingshan at all, but Zhang Qingshan was even more depressed because he couldn't vent his anger.

It's really hard to sing a one-man show!

Zhang Qingshan nagged and talked for a long time, seeing that the two of them were unwilling to talk to him, he had no choice but to give up.

As a result, as soon as he stopped talking, Zhou Baoyu and Zhou Ping started chatting instead. Moreover, the content of the chat was also about today's weather, what to have for dinner, etc. Zhang Qingshan was so depressed, let alone how Wronged: What did I do wrong to let you two treat me like this.

However, there are only three of them now, and they can't cut themselves off from the other two, so Zhang Qingshan had to join in the fun with a depressed heart, adding a sentence from time to time, and gradually, the atmosphere became harmonious again.

The three of them have been together for so long, and they have said almost everything that needs to be said. In fact, there is not much else to say, so let's tell stories and sing.

The three of them were leading two horses each, and they were all wearing big leather jackets. Except for a pair of straw sandals, there was nothing underneath.And the clothes and pants they washed were all dried on the backs of the two horses behind them, which was convenient.

At first, the three of them thought it was okay to walk like this, it was just comfortable to be lukewarm.But as I walked, the problem came: the weeds in the water grassland were lush, usually more than one foot high.I didn't feel anything when I walked over in long trousers, but if I walked on the weeds with bare legs, I would inevitably be scratched by the weeds or stabbed by grass tips.It doesn't matter once or twice, but being stabbed and scratched like this all the time, the pain is not painful, but the itching is severe.

Zhou Baoyu was the shortest in stature, so he couldn't stand it at first.After only walking five or sixty meters, I squatted down and grabbed a few times from time to time.With his scratching, Zhang Qingshan and Zhou Ping, who didn't care about the itching at first, seemed to be infected, and occasionally bent down to scratch a few times.

Zhang Qingshan, who was walking three or four meters to his left, didn't notice this at first. It can be seen that Zhou Baoyu was always squatting down and grabbing a few times, walking a few steps, bending over to grab a few times, and subconsciously looking at the place he was grabbing. go.

It doesn't matter if you don't look at it, but when you look at it, you are shocked: I saw that Zhou Baoyu's two calves were red in a large area.

"Baoyu, wait a moment."

Zhou Baoyu was about to scratch his itch, when he heard this, he turned to look at Zhang Qingshan: "Brother, what's wrong?"

But Zhang Qingshan first said to Zhou Ping: "Old Zhou, there seems to be something wrong, come and take a look."

The two came to Zhou Baoyu's side and took a closer look, good guy, besides a large area of ​​redness on the outside of Zhou Baoyu's two calves, there were also many red and swollen spots, and the scratches could not be seen at all, because this He had scratched one piece back and forth countless times, and the whole piece seemed a little swollen.

Zhou Baoyu also wondered why he was arrested like this in such a short period of time.Just as he was about to speak, Zhou Ping said lightly: "Could it be that the blood-sucking bug got in?"

According to the legend, if the blood-sucking worm gets in a little bit, isn't it just a red and swollen area, and then a small red spot appears outside?

Thinking of so many blood-sucking insects getting into these two calves, and imagining that so many blood-sucking insects drilled into the whole body along the blood vessels... Zhou Baoyu suddenly gave a cold meditation, his eyes immediately widened like copper bells, and his hands I was about to slap my calf—it was rumored that the blood-sucking worm that got in would be frightened and come out by itself under a fierce slap.

Zhang Qingshan grabbed Zhou Baoyu's hand, and before Zhou Baoyu could speak, he turned his head and said to Zhou Ping seriously: "Old Zhou, this joke is a bit too much."

Seeing that Zhou Ping smiled and didn't make a sound, Zhang Qingshan couldn't say too much, so he had to comfort Zhou Baoyu: "Don't listen to Lao Zhou's nonsense, there are no blood-sucking insects. You are contaminated by the poisonous gas on the weeds, and then Under your constant scratching and scratching, the poisonous gas enters the skin, which makes it red and swollen like this."

"Really?"

Zhang Qingshan didn't answer, but just stared at Zhou Baoyu fiercely.Otherwise, if Zhang Qingshan explained, Zhou Baoyu would definitely doubt it, but Zhang Qingshan didn't say anything, just gave him a stare, which made Zhou Baoyu believe it.

Maybe because he felt a little itchy, Zhou Baoyu reached out to scratch again.

"Don't scratch, it's more troublesome to scratch the skin." Zhang Qingshan stood up and told Zhou Baoyu: "I remember that when Tashi left, he gave us a few small jars, and one of them was specially designed to relieve itching. You hold on Come on, I'll get it for you."

"Ah! Brother, you... your calf is also red and swollen."

Hearing this, Zhang Qingshan bent down and took a look. There was indeed some redness and swelling on the outside of the calf. However, due to the small number of scratches, the scratches on the swelling were very obvious.

"It's okay, I'll just apply some medicine later."

After walking a few steps, Zhang Qingshan stopped, turned around and said to the two of them: "Forget it, you two also come over and apply some medicine together, and then put on your trousers, or else, you will walk on this wild grass with bare legs like this, and then you will not be able to get rid of it." Too much medicine is useless."

Immediately, the three of them applied some dark ointment on the outside of their red and swollen calves respectively. Not to mention, although the ointment left by Tashi was small, it did work.After just five or six seconds of applying the medicine, a coolness rushed down the calf to the brain, and the unbearable itching before disappeared immediately, and it was very comfortable.

Then, each of the three put on a pair of Red Army trousers and started on the road again.

I don't know if it's because of the playfulness before, or because the road was too depressing. It feels like there are only three of them left in the world except for the endless water and grass fields that seem to never see the end.Although the three chatted a few words from time to time, they obviously didn't have much intention to talk, and they often stopped talking after a few words.

Seeing that dusk is coming, it's time to find a dry place to rest.You can use the telescope to scan the surrounding area, but you can't find a raised place.After walking forward for another half an hour, when the sun was setting, I finally found a raised place in the far distance.

"Brother, look over there. Is it a small soil slope, or are there many people?" Probably because Zhou Baoyu was too bored, Zhou Baoyu insisted on asking Zhang Qingshan to borrow a telescope to observe the surroundings every time he walked. Just give him the binoculars, so every time Zhou Baoyu is the first to discover something else.

Hearing Zhou Baoyu's excited words, Zhang Qingshan was overjoyed, grabbed the binoculars and looked in the direction of Zhou Baoyu's finger.

At a distance of 800 to [-] meters, you can vaguely see a slightly raised bluish-gray, which is a bit eye-catching in the green.It's just because the distance is too far to see clearly, it is really hard to tell whether it is a person or not.But just because it was a blue-grey, different from the surrounding environment, Zhang Qingshan's heart was aroused with hope—a kind of ecstasy that not only found a companion, but also found a lot of companions.

"Old Zhou, take a quick look, is there a person or a small dirt slope?"

Zhou Ping was also excited, but apart from being excited, he still had a bit of worry: the three of them hadn't met their comrades for a long time, and if they really met their comrades, it would be a great joy.But if they encounter comrades who have already sacrificed, it will be particularly damaging to people's morale. After all, the three of them have walked for so many days, and all they encounter are rotten bones.

"Xiaotupo shouldn't be this color, it should be a person in all likelihood."

Upon hearing Lao Zhou's words, Zhang Qingshan and Zhou Baoyu immediately became excited...
