76. About campsites

The afternoon nap passed quickly.

When the sun was slightly tilted, the assembly whistle sounded again.

A group of young female recruits slowly stood in front of the backpacks, all looking as if they were still sleepy.

Fake Sleep said with a smile, "Go wash your faces, or you'll be rolling down the mountain soon."

The recruits smiled and hurried to the water pipe to splash some water on their faces.

Then they gathered their things and checked the packages and the guns.

The Master Chief blew a light whistle and said, "Listen for the command. Shoulder bag!"

The recruits all carried their large backpacks on their shoulders, with expressions of hard work on their faces.

Then the team set off again.

The road extends into the mountains, and no one knows where it leads.

But the winding road indicates that the road ahead will not be smooth.

The way down the mountain was obviously much easier.

The path is very clear and there are no steep slopes or cliffs. As long as you pay attention to your center of gravity, walking downhill does not require any energy at all.

After walking for a while, the girls became lively again and started chattering with each other.

As Xia Shu moved forward, he paid special attention to Mi Yu's condition.

She looked normal, without any trace of crying on her face.

It seemed to be covered up with makeup, which she was good at.

But she was always distracted while walking.

Either he was secretly looking at Xia Shu, or he was in a daze.

Xia Shu had no choice but to switch places with Jia and walk next to Mi Yu.

"You...what are you doing? Walk next to me..." Mi Yu asked with a red face.

"I'm keeping an eye on you, lest you roll down the hill," she said helplessly.

Mi Yu's eyes wandered and she stopped talking.

The marching road continued to wind downwards, soon going deep into the mountains and arriving at the dense forest at the foot of the mountain.

The terrain here is low-lying and humid, with a warm feeling, which is suitable for plant growth.

It faces the sun, so the trees are dense. It is much more difficult to walk on than the previous shady mountain path.

There were tree roots and shrubs growing wildly under the feet of the recruits, and sharp thorns would occasionally get caught on their clothes.

The squad leader also asked the flag bearer to roll up the flag.

The mountain spirit carried the flag on his shoulders to make the journey easier.

From time to time, screams of surprise could be heard from the team. They were the girls who were frightened by the little insects in the forest.

The vegetation here is lush, and small arthropods appear from time to time.

The girls had never come into close contact with these things in a natural environment, so they were quite scary when they saw them at first.

As Xia Shu walked, he suddenly stretched out his hand towards Mi Yu.

"What are you doing?" She blushed and hid back.

"do not move."

Natsuki carefully picked up a caterpillar behind her shoulder.

Be very careful to avoid being stung by the insect's hairs.

When Miyu saw Xia Shu picking up such a scary thing from her body, she got goosebumps all over her body.

"What is this!" she cried in panic.

"Butterfly larvae."

Natsuki said as he gently placed the caterpillar on a leaf.

Then he blew away the remaining needle hairs on his hands.

"Is this a butterfly?" Miyu asked in disbelief, "One of those colorful, flying, beautiful creatures with flapping wings?"

"Yes."

"Do they look like this when they are young?"

"Yes."

"How did you do it?"

Xia Shu thought for a moment and explained, "It spins silk, makes a cocoon, and then undergoes a period of metamorphosis. It becomes able to fly."

"Amazing."

"Didn't you learn this in biology class?" Xia Shu asked curiously.

Mi Yu stuck out her tongue and said, "I forgot."

For the rest of the journey, Miyu stayed close to Xia Shu, looking left and right with sharp eyes, afraid of seeing those insects again.

Jia withdrew his gaze from the two of them and made a "tsk" sound inwardly in dissatisfaction.

The team walked in the mountains and forests for a long time and crossed several streams.

During this time, he took out his gun and jogged for a while.

Then the uphill journey began again.

Climbing in a dense forest is more difficult than in an open area. Because visibility is poor, you need to pay more attention to your feet when walking.

After crossing a valley, the company of new recruits finally walked out of the forest.

There is a steep downhill road ahead, and after passing the slope, there is a wide plain ahead.

Although it is still surrounded by mountains, at least the road is not that difficult to walk on.

Xia Shu saw a man-made camp on the plain in the distance and guessed that today's journey would end there.

As they were going downhill, the squad leader repeatedly stressed the need for safety. There were gravels underfoot, and one could easily fall if they weren't careful.

So Xia Shu held Mi Yu's hand tightly and stood in front of her to prevent her from slipping.

Miyu's cheeks flushed, as if she had been shot in the heart by an arrow. Even long after they had descended the slope, the excitement still lingered.

The plains are covered with weathered boulders. Vegetation is sparse, with only a few tenacious bushes. It feels completely bare.

Xia Shu calculated that the altitude here should be slightly higher than the plains outside the mountain. It might be a plateau located within the mountain range.

The plateau covers an area of ​​hundreds of square kilometers and is very vast, but the winds are very strong and not suitable for long-term residence.

Judging from the overall degree of weathering, it should have been formed naturally.

The camp was just a few kilometers ahead. When Sloth Bear told the recruits that they would be camping there today, the girls' spirits immediately lifted.

They were finally almost there, and they were so exhausted in their current state.

After a while, Jiamei ordered the entire army to attack again.

They ran all the way to the camp for the next few kilometers.

In the past, who didn’t complain bitterly after running this distance?

So once we have a goal, everyone can unleash endless potential.

Before entering the camp, the sergeant ordered the team to reorganize.

After the recruits calmed down, they sang songs and walked into the camp marked with the flower district flag.

Such camps are spread all over the area around the recruit city.

How to choose the training route depends entirely on the commander's mood.

The journey chosen by the imposter is quite difficult.

You have to climb mountains and cross dense forests.

At the end of the day, we walked more than 30 kilometers.

Surprisingly, no one was left behind during the entire journey.

It seems that the quality of this batch of recruits is indeed good.

I was very satisfied with my nap, so after dinner, I didn't arrange any extra exercises.

So the recruits were allowed to rest early.

The infrastructure here is very primitive, with no constant temperature beds or automatic bathing pools.

There were only a few older washing machines with drying functions that required a queue.

The girls could only take a manual shower and then queue up to have their clothes washed.

When Xia Shu saw that the line was so long, he rubbed the clothes himself.

Then it was hung outside the dormitory door.

Not long after, when the recruits were chatting in the dormitory, the medical squad leader walked in carrying a box.

After asking about the injuries, she left a few patches for each person.

It is said that if you apply it to the sore area, it will be healed the next morning.

They generally applied the patches to the soles of their feet and shoulders—two areas most prone to pain.

As soon as it got dark, the camp became quiet.

The girls all went to bed early——

They are tired today.

77. About Wetland Tour

Xia Shu woke up very early today.

Because her feet were burning, she felt very energetic.

I don't know how this patch works, but it's so effective at activating blood circulation. When I wake up in the morning, I not only don't feel back pain, but I also feel full of energy.

Especially when his feet were burning in his sleep, Xia Shu also dreamed of incredible scenes.

She dreamed that she and Mi Yu had made love all night!

It's amazing!

Xia Shu subconsciously raised his hands and smelled them, but didn't smell anything.

After a while, everyone woke up one after another.

Judging from their expressions, the effect of this patch is indeed powerful.

Everyone got out of bed and prepared to wash up.

Xia Shu went out to collect the clothes. After a while, he heard a "Huh?" sound from outside the door.

"What's wrong?" Shuibian asked outside the door.

Natsuki walked back with a puzzled look on his face.

"My underwear is gone."

"Ah?" Everyone was shocked.

"Could it be blown away by the wind?" Shan Mei reminded.

"No? It's clamped very tightly." Xia Shu said with a frown.
