Chapter 85 Backpacking (Subscription Request)
While waiting for the battalion commander to come out of the battalion headquarters, since there were no veterans present, the nine people became quite active and whispered to each other:

"Eh? Dude, what martial arts did you learn? I'm not very talented, I've only learned Shaolin Kung Fu!"

"Wow! Shaolin Kung Fu sounds awesome. I learned Bajiquan."

"Bajiquan is fine! You came from Mengcun, right? Then this is the orthodox Bajiquan!"

The recruits chatted with each other, and everyone asked each other what martial arts they were learning.

However, every time Lu Qinglong was asked, he would be directly skipped.

The reason was very simple. It was obvious that this elder brother was an expert in horizontal training. There was no need to ask any more questions, so as to avoid angering him.

"Huh? Why don't you ask me what kind of martial arts I practice?"

Lu Qinglong, who was happily waiting for others to ask him, suddenly felt as if he was being ignored, and asked with some displeasure.

The other eight recruits were stunned, and expressions of embarrassment and awkwardness appeared on their faces almost at the same time.

What should they do? They thought they were smart enough to bypass Lu Qinglong, but now he's right in front of them and using his ultimate!

As a last resort, the new recruit from the neighboring company who had learned Shaolin Kung Fu asked with a forced smile:

"Brother, what kind of martial arts do you practice?"

Hearing that someone finally asked him a question, Lu Qinglong's face trembled, revealing a satisfied smile and said:
"I practice Tai Chi. If you have time, come and learn from me. It's been a while since I met someone like you who practiced martial arts."

"Anyway, among all the people I've fought, those who practiced martial arts have a strong sense of martial ethics. They won't fall asleep easily during a fight. They will only fall asleep after one, two or three punches."

"Unlike other ordinary people, who fall asleep after one punch."

After Lu Qinglong finished speaking, the other recruits felt as if they were being stared at by some man-eating beast, and the hairs on their bodies stood up.

What the hell? Want to compete with him? Are you afraid you haven't lived long enough?
And what the hell are you talking about, man? Do you look like you've ever practiced Tai Chi?
The recruit who just spoke said with a smile:

"It's okay, brother. There will be a chance in the future. There will be a chance."

After he finished speaking, all the recruits fell silent, fearing that if they said a few more words, they would be spotted by Lu Qinglong and pulled out of the formation to fight.

The awkward situation was not eased until the battalion commander came out of the battalion headquarters.

"You nine people have learned martial arts, right?"

The battalion commander's eyes swept over the nine people one by one, and when they finally stopped on Lu Qinglong, the corners of his mouth twitched unconsciously twice.

"Report to the battalion commander, yes!"

The nine recruits answered in unison.

"Who is that? Lu Qinglong, right? You can go back first."

The battalion commander waved to Lu Qinglong.

But this made Lu Qinglong a little confused. He was obviously also studying martial arts, so why did the battalion commander ask him to go back?

In a hurry, Lu Qinglong couldn't help but raise his right hand and report:

"Report to the battalion commander, I also studied martial arts, why do you want me to go back?"

The battalion commander did not show any impatience in the face of Lu Qinglong's question. Instead, he patiently explained to him:
"The entire training brigade will organize a martial arts competition later, so I asked all the new recruits in the battalion who have learned martial arts to gather here."

"If you were to go into the arena, you would cripple the other person, so you should just go back."

The other eight recruits were stunned when they heard what the battalion commander said. It turned out that he wanted them to participate in a martial arts competition!
"Oh Captain, so this is how it is."

"Then I understand. I learned Tai Chi, which is really not very offensive. Let them fight."

Lu Qinglong nodded, turned around, left the queue, and walked towards his company.

After returning to the first company, Lu Qinglong found that the whole company seemed very lively. Basically, when he passed by other classes, the squad leaders were lying on a bed, seemingly tying something with the backpack ropes that were distributed.

The same thing happened when we returned to Class 1. Class monitor Chen Ting had just taken out two backpack ropes, one thick and one thin, from under the bed.

"Qinglong, are you back?"

"The monitor was just teaching us how to pack our backpacks. You came back just in time, and the monitor was just about to start teaching!"

When Ji Baichang saw Lu Qinglong coming back, he spoke to him with some excitement on his face.

He was very considerate and didn't ask what Lu Qinglong was doing.

He has suffered losses in this regard, and now their focus is on learning how to pack a backpack correctly.

"Come and see. I will only teach you once. If you can't learn it, you can learn from each other."

Chen Ting's voice drew everyone's attention, including Lu Qinglong who had just entered the room. His eyes were fixed on the quilt that had been completely spread out in the hands of squad leader Chen Ting.

"First, everyone should spread out their quilts and fold them into four pieces."

"Then take out the thin backpack rope, place it on one side of the quilt, tie a knot, and rotate it three times so that there are three horizontal lines and one vertical line on the front of the backpack."

"The backpack rope rotates again, the quilt is turned over, and the rope is passed through three horizontal lines, finally forming three horizontal lines pressing two vertical lines."

"Once you've done that, tie a knot on the back of the rope and smooth it out."

In Chen Ting's hands, the quilt was like a magic trick, and he easily tied and deformed it.

Figure 1
"Do you understand? Go get your backpack ropes and practice. Once you've finished this step, I'll teach you the next one."

Chen Ting always taught things only once, unless the subject was very difficult and prone to mistakes, he would teach it twice or even three times. But obviously, packing a backpack was not included.

It is only taught once, and recruits who don’t understand can only ask the people next to them. In this process, they can continue to learn and get the hang of it on their own.

It is much more useful than just watching it three, four, five or six times.

The recruits began to work one after another, holding their own blankets.

Among them, Xue Daochao and Lu Qinglong learned the fastest and successfully turned the quilt into a backpack shape in just one try.

Ji Baichang, who was next in line, worked on it for a while and finally figured it out.

The other recruits in Class 1 also made decent progress after asking the three for their methods.

It took about ten minutes to understand it.

"Okay, then take off all your quilts now, and then put the mattress in."

Chen Ting then directed and demonstrated it again.

The other recruits understood and discovered a serious problem when they started operating it.

That's the mattress and quilt put together, it's too thick!
The thin backpack strap seemed a little short and was not enough to tie the two together.

Only Lu Qinglong, with his exaggerated and terrifying strength, could easily beat the two together.

"The mattress is outside, the backpack is inside, and rubber shoes are tied to the outside of the mattress."

Figure 2
"This is the most basic way to pack your backpack. If you need to gather urgently in the middle of the night, you will also need to bring a belt, a water bottle, and a shoulder bag."

"The bag can be used to store a raincoat, a mug, a towel, underwear, a toothbrush, toothpaste, a sewing kit, a pen, paper, and a triangular handkerchief."

Listening to what Chen Ting said slowly and leisurely, the recruits felt dizzy.

Didn't we teach you how to pack your backpack? Why are you talking about things you need for an emergency assembly now when you haven't even finished packing your backpack?
Ji Baichang's face no longer had the initial excitement, but was replaced by depression.

By the time everyone had completed the basic process of packing their backpacks and emergency assembly, it was already nine o'clock.

The duty officer outside the company gate blew the whistle for washing, and the recruits rushed to the washroom with yellow basins and started washing.

They couldn't go to sleep right after returning to the classroom because they still had to complete three hundred points.

After a month of doing the three hundred exercises, the physical fitness of these recruits has basically improved to a basic level.

At the very least, they have reached the standard of a normal adult male, instead of being the weak high school or college students who first entered the military camp.

After completing the three hundred tasks, most of the recruits fell asleep directly on their beds.

"Old Xue, why aren't you sleeping yet? What are you fiddling with sitting at the head of the bed?"

"You can still do your needlework without watching the teacher's teaching video?"

Ji Baichang originally planned to see what Xue Daochao was doing.

You won’t know the result until you see it. It’s really shocking!

Xue Daochao's head was buried in the quilt, moving up and down inside the quilt, as if he was doing some delicate needlework.

"piss off!"

"Your mind is full of bad things. I really admire you."

"I'm counting things!"

Xue Daochao poked his head out from under the quilt and lifted a corner of it, allowing Ji Baichang on the next bed to see what was inside his quilt.

This kid didn't lie to me. He was really doing the cooking and not fiddling with needlework.

Ji Baichang asked with a little regret on his face:
"What the hell are you doing? It's the middle of the night and you're still not asleep, and you're still doing magic?"

"Go to bed first. Don't sleep too deeply tonight. There are things to do."

"Ah? What can I do?"

Ji Baichang was a little puzzled, and thought that Xue Daochao was talking nonsense. He turned his head and lay on his pillow. Soon, he began to snore at a steady pace.

"Forget it. It's useless for me to calculate this kind of thing. I'll just go to sleep."

Xue Daochao shook his head and turned away.

It was late at night, and the moonlight shone through the gaps in the curtains and onto the floor of the room.

It was a bit chilly in Hebei in October, and the gentle breeze made people shiver.

"Dingling bell~"

As the set alarm rang, the battalion commander stood up, turned off the alarm, and slowly put on his camouflage uniform.

I went to the communicator's room in the next battalion and knocked on the door. The door was immediately opened and the sleepy communicator opened the door.

"Go, get the whistle, and check the results of the backpack training of each company."

"Okay, Captain."

The communicator nodded, turned and went into the room. After a while, he followed the battalion commander to the most central location of the entire camp.
