"That shouldn't happen. Commander Ye said that it would be too unfair for me to be the deputy captain, and there's a very important point that needs to be considered.
"My official identity in Daxia is more than just myself. I have my master standing behind me. Every move I make is related to my master's reputation. The organization must be cautious and must not give people even the slightest impression that the great god Fuxi is inferior to Michael. The organization must strike a good balance between the two."
Chen Muye, who was sitting opposite him, nodded seriously and praised, "Indeed, it is the right way to act with caution. Commander Ye's thorough considerations show that he is meticulous and far-sighted."
Captain, you are so flattering because you want Commander Ye to allocate more funds... Su Yan continued:
"So, I occupy a very special position in the team. It's a unique position that Commander Ye and I worked out together."
"What position?" Chen Muye asked hurriedly.
Su Yan slowly put down his chopsticks, and in the eyes of several pairs of expectant eyes, he said proudly:
"Temporary worker!"
puff--!
Zhao Kongcheng sprayed a mouthful of dumpling soup all over Leng Xuan. Ignoring Leng Xuan's complaining expression, he coughed and asked confusedly, "What the hell is a temporary worker? Is it someone who takes the blame?"
Everyone put down their chopsticks at the same time, their faces full of confusion.
"The 'temporary worker' I'm talking about isn't the kind of miserable temporary worker you see. It's a unique job title tailored for me by Commander Ye." Su Yan shook his head and looked around at everyone.
"Normally, I fight alongside my team, advancing and retreating together. Qiye is responsible for coordinating all my actions. However, if there is a disagreement between me and the team on a certain matter, at a critical moment, I have the authority to disregard orders and act independently. However, all consequences and gains and losses arising from this will be borne by other leaders in the organization."
While the others were still pondering the meaning of these words, Wu Xiangnan had already reacted first and said in amazement:
"This power is extraordinary. From this perspective, Commander Ye really hasn't treated Su Yan unfairly and values him very much. Moreover, I'm sure the other leaders assigned to you by the organization are definitely not ordinary people. After all, those who can be pulled out to take the blame for you must be of high status!"
Su Yan curled his lips and complained, "Deputy Captain, what you said makes me seem like I love getting into trouble!"
Aren't you? !
Everyone at the table was speechless. They lowered their heads and picked up their chopsticks silently without saying a word.
Chen Muye slowly clenched his fists, not knowing what he was thinking about, and sighed deeply in his heart.
Hongying lay on the table, her shoulders shaking with laughter. She suddenly remembered what Su Yan had done - tricking the leaders of the headquarters into drinking soup from the sewer.
Captain Chen Muye could not escape joint liability for this incident and was punished to write a self-criticism of more than 300,000 words. He was so worried these days that his hair was falling out in clumps and he was almost scratching himself bald.
Si Xiaonan's mouth was bulging with food, and he asked vaguely, "Su Yan, who is your direct superior who took the blame for you? Could it be Commander Ye?"
Su Yan shook his head and said with great sorrow:
"I was thinking of choosing the Master. After all, I'm quite familiar with him, and it would save me a lot of trouble when I'm doing things. But the Master refused to agree, insisting that he wanted to live a few more years. What's most infuriating is that he even stole my Zhenxu Stele. It's simply outrageous!"
Do you want to listen to what you are saying...The old master is so pitiful.
The atmosphere fell silent for the second time, and Hongying was the first to break the silence. She blinked and asked, "Su Yan, who was the leader that Commander Ye finally chose to take the blame for you?"
Su Yan: "Zhou Ping."
Time suddenly became quiet for a moment, and the people at the table took a while to understand who Su Yan was talking about.
"Who are you talking about?!"
Zhao Kongcheng stood up suddenly, his face filled with admiration and surprise. "Is it that cold, aloof, stern, elegant, and the ultimate swordsman among the human ceiling, Zhou Ping?!"
Leng Xuan's face showed deep respect: "Is it Zhou Ping who held a sword, blocked the gods outside, and shouted 'Daxia ahead, gods are forbidden to enter'?
Si Xiaonan's face was solemn, his voice was clear, and he sighed slowly: "His sword is cold, his knife is cold, his heart is cold, his blood is cold..."
Oh, yes, yes, it’s Zhou Ping who suffers from severe social phobia. He is frozen... Su Yan looked at Si Xiaonan speechlessly, unable to complain.
"Su Yan, have you met? Can you help me get his autograph?" Zhao Kongcheng asked excitedly.
Su Yan spread his hands regretfully and explained:
"Last night when we arrived in Tianhe City, Commander Ye arranged for us to meet on the platform. We exchanged a few words before leaving. Now we're on a green train and are almost arriving in Anta County. I'm afraid we won't have the chance to get an autograph. We'll have to wait until next time."
Except for Hongying, no one cared where they were going at the moment. Their minds were full of Sword Saint Zhou Ping.
Wen Qimo also joined in the fun and asked excitedly, "Su Yan, what does the Sword Saint look like? Is he handsome?"
Su Yan shook his head and said, "I didn't see clearly. It was night time, and he was wearing a black hood and a large mask covering his face. He was wrapped up tightly. To be honest, when he walked towards me, I thought he was a CD seller strolling over."
Si Xiaonan pressed on, "What about his eyes? Are they like the legend says, with a brilliant galaxy hidden within them?"
"I didn't see it either. He just kept his head down and stared at his toes. We never looked at each other once." Su Yan shook his head again.
Hongying held her chin with one hand, looking at him with sparkling eyes, and asked curiously, "So, what did Senior Sword Saint say to you?"
Su Yan scratched his head, recalled, and said, "It was snowing heavily at the time, and he spoke very quietly. I could barely hear him say... Yeah, it's fine. I get it. Just do your best and drive slowly."
After Su Yan finished speaking, he looked up and glanced around, and saw a table of people looking at him in confusion.
Si Xiaonan was stunned for a moment: "And then?"
Su Yan spread his hands and said, "Then he turned around and left. I couldn't stop him even if I called him."
“…What a poetic concept!”
Everyone instantly imagined a scene from a martial arts movie.
At the station, the snow was falling like goose feathers.
A swordsman, cold as ice, walked in the snow, and every step left a murderous mark on the snow.
When he walked in front of Su Yan, he didn't even raise his eyes, but seemed to have a thousand words to say - just go ahead, I will take care of everything.
With a slight smile on his lips, he whispered, "Be careful on the road," and then his figure gradually disappeared in the vast wind and snow, leaving only a lingering sense of elegance.
Swordsman, this is a real swordsman!
Zhao Kongcheng exhaled heavily, nodded in admiration, and sighed, "It's just as the legend says: cold, aloof, and murderous!"
Leng Xuan nodded vigorously: "Sharp and resolute!"
"His sword is cold, his knife is cold, his heart is cold..." There were stars in Si Xiaonan's eyes.
Su Yan: ( ̄ェ ̄;)
Chapter 294 The Woman in White in the Dense Forest
(P.S. This chapter contains some supernatural elements. Although the ghost stories I write are not really scary, some people are a little timid. You can read it tomorrow during the day. Be good and obedient.)
There is an Anta County in Tianhe City.
It is located in the north of Daxia and has a temperate monsoon climate.
When winter comes, it snows heavily and the snowflakes fall down like goose feathers.
There was a strong wind, and the snow was blowing in the wind. The white hair wind that the old people talk about refers to this kind of weather.
It's incredibly cold today.
Even if you are a strong man, if you don't wrap yourself up like a dumpling, you will definitely freeze into a straight popsicle in less than a few hours, so hard that you can use it as a crowbar.
It was just after a snowstorm, the sky and the earth were connected as one, and everything was white.
Looking into the distance, several figures wrapped in green fur coats and wearing felt hats were walking slowly towards us, leaving behind a few messy footprints on the mirror-like snow.
"Captain, I'm hungry and want to eat. I want to eat steaming hot pot and sweet and sour pork. If I could have some pickled cabbage and blood sausage...hiss, I can't even walk just thinking about it!"
Baili Pangpang dragged his feet, his thoughts had already drifted far away, his eyes full of longing.
"Don't call me captain, I'm not your captain!"
At the front of the team, Lin Qiye, who was struggling to move forward, slowly raised his hand and rubbed his eyelashes that were frozen and covered with ice. He felt that the light in his eyes was almost gone.
Tired, so tired.
Now he understood that some of Su Yan's words were true, "Who the hell wants a good person to be a captain?" and "If you persuade others to be a captain, God will strike you with lightning!"
In a team, the captain not only needs to worry about food, drink, defecation and urination, but also has to plan accommodation itinerary and care about the physical and mental health of teammates. It is a job that is not suitable for human beings to work 24 hours a day.
If you are unlucky and there are several uncertainties when catching up with your teammates, then it will be even more difficult to be the captain.
For example, the big eater behind me!
He had prepared three days' worth of food, but he ate it all in one meal, forcing An Qingyu to hunt everywhere in the vast snow. Last night, he was almost dragged away by a Siberian tiger.
Look at the disabled person in the team whose legs are broken at the root. He can’t even use a skateboard in the snow, and everyone has to take turns carrying him. This is outrageous!
Lin Qiye felt hopeless, as if he was enduring something he shouldn't have to endure at his age.
rustling......
Right here, An Qingyu, covered in ice, stepped on the snow and came diagonally from behind. Under Lin Qiye's expectant eyes, he handed two plump hares to him and panted:
"I shot two hares, enough for today's food. I also happened to meet a hunter and asked him for the correct route."
An Qingyu is still reliable. How can I live without you... Lin Qiye almost cried with joy while holding the wild rabbit.
An Qingyu rested for a moment, drew a circle on the snow, and then explained to Lin Qiye earnestly, "We've indeed taken a wrong turn. Originally, if we had continued north, we would have found the Anta Forest Protection Bureau, where the local night watchmen are stationed. But now our route has deviated by about 30 degrees. We need to adjust our direction and walk back about kilometers."
Cao Yuan walked over with the sleeping Su Jianqiang on his back, looked at the simple map on the ground and asked:
"Can we get food supplies from the Forest Ranger Bureau? Relying on hunting all the time isn't a solution."
An Qingyu nodded. "There's a road between the Forest Protection Bureau and the county seat. We can send two people to go buy supplies. We can get everything we need in a few hours."
After hearing this, Lin Qiye finally breathed a sigh of relief.
There were primeval forests all over the place and it was deserted. In addition, heavy snow blocked the mountain and cut off the signal, causing them to lose their way for two days. They didn't expect that they had walked more than 20 kilometers without realizing it. Fortunately, An Qingyu corrected the route, otherwise they would have walked a lot more detours.
When Lin Qiye thought of this, he looked at Su Jianqiang on Cao Yuan's back and became furious. If this guy was here, how could he have taken the wrong path with his Bagua map?
But what a shame, this guy just walked away from home and went back to Cangnan. He is a complete scumbag who forgets his principles at the first sight of a beautiful woman!
Lin Qiye said with a dark face: "Cao Yuan, dig a hole and bury him, so you don't have to carry him around and get tired."
Cao Yuan forced a wry smile on his face, silently took the hare, and skillfully began to make a fire and roast the meat.
If they continue walking, others may be able to hold on with their willpower, but Baili Pangpang's round body is probably so hungry that his chest is sticking to his back. If he doesn't eat something, I'm really afraid he won't be able to hold on.
When that time really comes, who can carry such a fat man!
After clearing a clearing and drying the snow on the ground, several people sat around the campfire and enjoyed their first meal of the day.
An Qingyu took advantage of the break to carefully sort out the information he had received and reported it to Lin Qiye: "Qiye, there's something I didn't take seriously before, but the hunter I met today told me it was serious, and I'm starting to feel something is amiss."
Lin Qiye nodded: "Just tell me, we will analyze it together."
"Do you remember when we were on the train, we met some locals who told us stories about how this pristine jungle we're in used to be haunted?"
