Chapter 210 The Faster the Time
Many people say that the older you get, the faster time passes.
Although time is a man-made concept, it does not prevent time from being the most important thing for everyone.
No matter how much you are worth, no matter how rich or poor, no matter how much knowledge you have, time will always pass equally for everyone.
It is said that water and oxygen are highly toxic, but time is the most toxic thing. The older you get, the harder it is to let go.
Looking at the semi-automatic rifle in his hand, Linzhou hoped that time would pass a little slower so that he could feel the charm of the gun and the violent aesthetics on it.
As an old-fashioned rifle, it can only be used by college students during military training.
Most of them now use new automatic rifles.
After taking a few more glances at the gun in his hand with a caliber of 7.62mm, an initial velocity of 750m/s and a weight of 3.5kg, Linzhou reached out and pushed the bullets into the magazine one by one, holding the gun in a prone position and aiming at the target not far away.
The instructor next to him glanced at Linzhou and gently reminded him, "Put the butt of the gun close to you, or you'll get bruises when you go home tonight."
"Thank you, instructor." After expressing his gratitude, Linzhou took a deep breath and pulled the trigger for the first time.
About three seconds later, the instructor heard the voice of his comrade through the walkie-talkie.
"It missed the target and hit the rock behind."
Hearing this, Linzhou felt a little embarrassed. He had obviously aimed very accurately. Logically speaking, at a distance of 100 meters, as long as he could keep the three points in a straight line, theoretically he should be able to hit the target every time.
But each person only has five bullets. Looking at the remaining four, Linzhou took a deep breath, adjusted his state, and continued the operation.
The second shot, eight rings.
The third shot, eight rings.
The fourth shot, nine rings.
The fifth shot hit the bull's eye.
Listening to the data reported by his comrades, the instructor squatting next to him patted Linzhou on the shoulder and said , "Although you were a little slow at the beginning, you quickly got the hang of it. That's great."
"Report! Thank you for the compliment!" Linzhou locked the safety of the gun, carefully checked the barrel, removed the magazine, and then stood up.
Seeing Lin Zhou standing up, the instructor also stood up. "Well...are you interested in signing up for next year's spring recruitment? Since we are a sister institution to your university, we can bring you here directly."
"Hehe, that's not my interest." After Linzhou briefly replied to the instructor, he handed the gun to the next student and went to rest.
Although I still wanted to do a few more, the rules are the rules, and five shots means five shots.
This is not a place where you can beg for mercy and do more. It is a place where orders are enforced.
Sitting under the shade of a tree, Linzhou chatted with his roommate from Northeast China, "How do you feel? You've gotten a tan these few days."
“Fuck, it’s worth it to be able to touch a gun even if it gets dried into charcoal. How can those small shooting ranges have semi-automatic ones?” The eldest brother leaned against a tree and put his hat on his face to block out the scorching sun in the sky.
At this time, the fourth brother Tang Wenyuan, who was wearing glasses, also came over to the two of them.
"Have you two heard? A sharpshooter emerged from the Banla shooting range. She's a girl. She scored three nine-rings and two ten-rings. The instructor was stunned."
"6." The eldest brother took off his sun hat and said calmly, "Zhou, the military training will be over tonight. What shall we eat?"
Linzhou was originally thinking about something in his mind, but he still answered , "How about a whole bullfrog pot and some barbecue?"
"Okay!" The boss slapped his thigh and made the decision.
But because his hands were too strong, he could only rub the painful area slowly.
Although Linzhou suspected that the sharpshooter was Jiang Xiyue, he didn't dare to say anything without confirmation. When the little girl came in, she was right in front of their team.
Putting aside other things, just by looking at the steps, you can tell that Jiang Xiyue feels as at home when she enters a place like this.
Could it be that grandma’s father-in-law is studying mushrooms?
Leaning against the tree, Linzhou continued to daydream, waiting for his classmates to finish shooting.
After this, we will have a meal here, and then have a unified patriotic education in the afternoon. Linzhou still agrees with this.
The core reason why Chinese civilization has been able to survive for more than 5,000 years is its concept of collective honor and disgrace, which is unlike the Western idea of one person saving the world.
Suddenly a breeze blew, and Linzhou smelled the sunscreen on his face.
Every morning, Jiang Xiyue would force him to apply the makeup, saying that he would not be handsome if he got tanned...
Of course, he didn't resist. Getting tanned didn't matter, but it would be very uncomfortable if he was exposed to ultraviolet rays and his skin peeled off.
Thinking of this, Linzhou patted Tang Wenyuan beside him and said, "Wenyuan, have you changed your way of walking?"
"I've changed it. I was forced to practice for an extra hour and a half yesterday. Now I can do it if I want to , and not do it if I don't want to." Tang Wenyuan's face was full of confidence. He took out his glasses from his chest and put them on. "It's my turn now. Let's see how I can pull the trigger."
Looking at his roommate walking over, Lin Zhou also got up and said, "Let's go and eat some watermelon."
Although he said so, for Lin Zhou, he just felt that as the temporary head of this class, it was inappropriate for a cat to rest here, so he might as well go and take a look at the side.
The main thing is that you are not allowed to pick up bullet shells, otherwise it would be nice to take a few back with you.
After all, any student majoring in chemistry can easily reload empty bullet shells and even prepare the propellant by themselves.
Their school is very comprehensive, with many majors. Apart from a few majors in the School of Art, the only majors that are worth mentioning are pure science.
As for engineering, their School of Computer Science can only be described as being mediocre.
Linzhou's major is software engineering. To put it bluntly, if he graduates and looks for a job, he will be a programmer. Among computer-related majors, network security and cryptography are the ones that lose hair the fastest...
As for those who work on algorithms, they are all perverts and cannot be regarded as normal network workers at all.
Compared with the civil engineering profession, in the future when you are working on a construction site, those who work on algorithms will at least have to wear a white hat.
When Linzhou started to let himself go again, he heard five misses coming from the instructor's radio, and then he saw Tang Wenyuan walking towards him, rubbing his shoulders.
It was obvious that the butt of the gun was not firmly pressed in, and the recoil had caused several injuries.
"Old Four, there's safflower oil in my drawer. Apply some when you get home tonight..."
"Okay!" The fourth brother nodded and stood beside Linzhou.
When the two were about to speak, a bottle of ice water was handed to Linzhou, "Zhou Zhou, here's some water."
"Thank you Yueyue, how did you get here?" Linzhou took the cold water, took a few gulps, and waited for Jiang Xiyue's answer.
Under normal circumstances, these students are not allowed to run around and can only follow their class instructors.
Hearing Linzhou's question, Jiang Xiyue smiled and said, "It's okay, this is the privilege of a sharpshooter!"
“ It’s really you.”
