My military function points

Chapter 65 Even if you are a pig, we can still send you up!
"Ah?! So far?" Chen Rong was surprised. "How do we get there?"

He knew about Shenlongjia. It was said that it was a large primeval forest and had all kinds of strange legends.

Lu Senbao laughed: "Go as far as you feel comfortable."

"Let's go quickly. The moment the bracelet is activated, the selection has already begun." Ma Shouliang urged, "Since it's an assessment, the sooner the better."

The three then left the base and headed down the mountain.

The snow hadn't melted yet and my hiking boots made a squeaking sound when I stepped on it.

"Squad Leader, let's..."

"From now on, don't call me by my position. Either call me by my name or my code name!" Ma Shouliang immediately interrupted Chen Rong.

"Yes!"

"Great hero, are we just going to walk over here like this?"

Chen Rong hesitated for a moment, but decided to call out the code name. He didn't dare to call the other party Lao Ma or A Bao.

He didn't know why the squad leader gave him such a code name. In the army, "hero" was not a good word.

"Let's go to the orchard first and ask someone to get a car to take us to the city." Ma Shouliang replied.

"Is this okay? Will we be disqualified if we ask others for help?"

Chen Rong has also watched many military-themed TV dramas and movies, in which the selection for special forces depends entirely on oneself.

"Since the two officers didn't make any demands, it means they won't care how we get there," Lu Senbao explained.

"That's right." Ma Shouliang nodded, "Didn't you notice just now that the lieutenant said when he gave the coordinates that this was the first destination.

This means that rushing to Shenlongjia is only part of the selection."

Lu Senbao winked at Ma Shouliang: "Old Ma, remember to borrow more money from your sister-in-law later!"

Ma Shouliang glanced at him and said nothing.

"It's mine!" Lu Senbao said unhappily.

"Row!"

More than half an hour later, the three arrived at the orchard and saw a big black dog tied to the door.

"Woof woof woof!" As if the dog didn't recognize them because they had changed their clothes, the big black dog barked at the three people a few times.

Zhang Juanjuan and Zhang's father came out of the house and were a little surprised to see the three people in casual clothes.

"Happy New Year, uncle! Happy New Year, sister-in-law!"

Lu Senbao and Chen Rong hurriedly greeted them.

Father Zhang immediately greeted, "Okay, okay! Come on, everyone, come in!"

Zhang Juanjuan stopped at the door and looked at Ma Shouliang: "You came here empty-handed?"

"Well." Ma Shouliang scratched his head and said embarrassedly, "Uncle, we won't go in. There are still some things to do in the army. We need to go to the city."

Father Zhang was very surprised: "You guys are going down the mountain in such a heavy snow?"

"Yes, the mission is quite urgent. Uncle, can you find a car to take us there? I'll pay."

"What are you talking about money?" Father Zhang thought for a while, "Juanjuan's uncle has a farm vehicle. Wait, I'll call him!"

"Hey!"

After Zhang's father entered the room, Ma Shouliang came to Zhang Juanjuan, stretched out his hand and whispered: "Lend me some money, I'll pay you back later."

Lu Senbao and Chen Rong immediately turned their heads and pretended to appreciate the snow scene in the orchard, but their ears perked up.

"How much do you want?"

"how much do you have?"

Zhang Juanjuan got angry: "I have saved 300,000 yuan for my dowry, do you want it?"

Lu Senbao was picking at Chen Rong's fingers and making faces, and Chen Rong almost couldn't hold back his laughter.

Ma Shouliang waved his hands quickly: "Keep your voice down! A few thousand is enough!"

"Is eight thousand enough?" Zhang Juanjuan took out her phone and said, "I'll transfer it to you now."

Ma Shouliang: "I didn't bring my phone, and neither did they."

"what do you mean?"

"I want cash."

"Wait!"

Zhang Juanjuan turned and went into the house, and took out a stack of banknotes: "I just sold a few carts of oranges before the New Year. Here are about four or five thousand yuan." Ma Shouliang took it and put it in his pocket.

Zhang Juanjuan took out two red envelopes from her pocket and came to Chen Rong and Lu Senbao, saying with a smile:

"It's not in vain that I let you two call me sister-in-law. Come, take it!"

Chen Rong wanted to refuse, but Lu Senbao took it and shouted, "Thank you, sister-in-law!"

At noon, a small farm truck arrived at Jiangcheng Railway Station.

Ma Shouliang and his two companions found a restaurant that was still open and had a meal. They bought some water and food and then started wandering around the train station.

"Bai Falcon, what are we doing?" Chen Rong was a little confused.

All three people’s IDs were taken, so they definitely couldn’t buy train tickets.

"Looking for a black car!" Lu Senbao looked around and wondered, "Is there a crackdown recently? Why don't I see any touts?"

Ma Shouliang: "There are few drivers on New Year's Day, let's look for one more."

The three of them walked around again and finally a young man came over to talk to them. When he heard that the three of them wanted to charter a car to go to the Shennongjia Scenic Area, he asked for five thousand yuan.

"Damn, you want five thousand for four hundred kilometers? That's robbery!" Lu Senbao began to bargain.

"Brother, it's the Spring Festival travel season now, 5,000 is considered a small amount. I also have to pay for tolls and gas for the round trip."

"The highway is free during the holidays, so you don't have to pay a toll. Five hundred, go if you want!"

The driver was shocked: "Are you sincere?"

After some discussion, we finally agreed on a price of two thousand five hundred yuan.

At around eight o'clock in the evening, the three arrived at the entrance of Shennongjia Scenic Area.

Ma Shouliang looked at the map and pointed to a small path in front of the right. The three of them immediately started climbing the mountain.

At the beginning, you can still meet one or two tourists holding skis on the road. As you go further and further away, the ground becomes covered with white and there is no trace of any human activity.

The three of them climbed over a hill and entered a dense forest.

It was quiet all around, with no other sound except the sound of shoes stepping on the snow.

The moonlight was blocked by the large trees overhead, and even though the ground was covered in snow, visibility was very low.

"It should be nearby." Ma Shouliang said softly, and continued to lead Chen Rong and Lu Senbao around in the woods.

It was the first time for Chen Rong to come to such an environment, so Ma Shouliang and Lu Senbao deliberately let him walk in the middle.

A few minutes later, Ma Shouliang stopped.

Chen Rong leaned over and saw an open space in front of him. There was a tarpaulin on the space with a slight bulge underneath.

Ma Shouliang did not approach, signaling Chen Rong and Lu Senbao to stay where they were, while he quickly walked around the periphery alone.

"Someone else has been here. Judging from the traces, they should not have left yet!" Ma Shouliang said in a low voice after returning.

Chen Rong's heart tightened, and he immediately activated his "Seeing Through Fire" skill and looked around.

Ma Shouliang and Lu Senbao were not panicked at all.

"Go and see what's under the tarpaulin?" Ma Shouliang deliberately said loudly.

"Okay!" Lu Senbao ran over carelessly.

Chen Rong noticed that the snow under the tree closest to the tarpaulin was obviously fluffier than that in other places, so he immediately looked up at the tree.

A dark shadow was vaguely seen squatting on a tree branch more than four meters high.

"Be careful, there's someone in the tree"

As soon as Chen Rong finished speaking, the black shadow suddenly pounced on Lu Senbao who had just arrived under the tree!
Just as Chen Rong spoke, Ma Shouliang had already moved. He pounced over and threw a frozen bun out with his hand.

"I lost it!"

Bang!
The black shadow let out a strange cry and quickly flipped over in the air, but was still hit on the chest by the steamed bun and fell into the snow pile.

Ma Shouliang kicked out with a whip kick, but the black shadow dodged it narrowly.

Snapped!
The whip kick hit the tree, and the snow fluttered.

The next moment, Ma Shouliang's right hand formed into a claw and reached in front of the black shadow.

"Sir, please spare my life!" The black shadow knelt down in the snow.

Ma Shouliang was stunned when he heard the voice: "Niu Huanxi?"
