Chapter 67 Climbing to the Finish Line
Langya special training ground.
"There is a gray wolf behind me...how many...secrets are there..."
With a "bang".
Shi Dafan staggered across the finish line and fell to the ground. Although he looked very uncomfortable, he kept mumbling to himself, "I am a little goat... a little goat..."
"What do you mean by acting? I am acting~" Qiang Xiaowei carried a backpack on his left shoulder and a gun in his right hand. He walked forward with unsteady steps. It was obvious from his swaying appearance that he had reached his limit. He was still trying to enlighten himself in a different way: "I am giving up my position as squad leader. Oh~"
Qiang Xiaowei lost his balance and fell to the ground. He looked at the finish line in front of him and struggled to get up: "Come here to suffer, what does it mean to be a slut? I am a slut. I have a comfortable life but I come here to suffer..."
His left leg went limp, and Qiang Xiaowei half-knelt on the ground, propping up his body with his gun. He looked at the finish line just in sight, gritted his teeth and yelled, "Ah~~~"
He burst out the last bit of strength in his body and rushed forward, crossing the finish line, and Qiang Xiaowei also fell to the ground.
One figure after another rushed across the finish line.
After regaining some strength, everyone sat up, relaxed their muscles, and waited for the others to return.
Deng Zhenhua appeared at the end of the road, limping forward, dragging something in his hand, and he looked full of murderous intent when he walked.
Shi Dafan, who was rubbing his forehead, looked up inadvertently and saw Deng Zhenhua. He was delighted and waved and shouted, "Hey, Ostrich~"
"Come on~"
"Hold on~"
"Come on, paratroopers~"
Figures appeared one after another and began to remember, all encouraging Deng Zhenhua.
Deng Zhenhua's limping figure was getting closer and closer to the finish line, and everyone could see clearly what he was dragging in his hand.
"No way~" Geng Jihui said in surprise: "I got a snake back~"
Shi Dafan stood up and said with a smile: "I guess the snake couldn't catch up with him, so it committed suicide."
“Hahaha~~~ ”
Both of them laughed.
"Go!"
With the finish line in sight, Deng Zhenhua gritted his teeth, quickened his pace, and finally crossed the finish line with difficulty.
"What's going on? So late?" Shi Dafan asked with a smile, "Did you run into a female ostrich on the road?"
"Fuck you!" Deng Zhenhua said unhappily, "I ran into this damn thing!"
As he spoke, Deng Zhenhua loosened his grip and the snake's body fell to the ground. Then he moved forward a few steps and sat among the crowd.
Looking around, Deng Zhenhua did not see Jiang Shui and Chen Guotao. He asked in surprise, "Captain and Lao Jiang haven't come back yet?"
“No!” Geng Jihui shook his head: “They must have had some kind of accident, otherwise they would have been the first to reach the finish line.”
"Here I come~"
A voice sounded and everyone looked up quickly.
At the end of the road, two figures are coming together.
"Paigong Chen, there are only a hundred meters left, come on~" The sound of Jiang Shui came from afar, and the voice was very hoarse.
"Captain, come on~"
"Xiao Jiang, come on~"
Everyone at the finish line shouted.
They saw Jiang Shui and Chen Guotao, and there were bloodstains on their training uniforms, which made them really unable to understand what had happened to Jiang Shui and the others.
"Here I come~" Chen Guotao leaned on the tree branch and moved forward in very slow and small steps. He even needed to rest after every few steps. But after seeing the finish line, he still cheered up, suppressed the pain in his legs, and tried his best to speed up.
"Don't be anxious, slow down, slow down~" Jiang Shui quickly stretched out his hand and supported Chen Guotao from behind, fearing that Chen Guotao might have an accident.
Although the two found the nearest road for the rest of the journey, Chen Guotao's legs continued to hurt due to walking on the mountain road for a long time. It was not easy for him to hold on until now. It was all thanks to Chen Guotao's amazing willpower that he had held on until now without falling down.
The finish line was just ahead, and Chen Guotao certainly would not give up. No matter how painful it was, he had to endure it, and no matter how slow the pace was, he had to persevere. The short distance of 100 meters made Chen Guotao walk extremely slowly.
Eighty meters.
Sixty meters.
Forty meters.
With a "pop".
The branch in Chen Guotao's hand broke and snapped.
“Ah~”
Chen Guotao screamed, and when the branch broke, all the gravity of his body fell on his legs. An extremely piercing pain instantly spread to his brain, causing Chen Guotao to fall forward to the ground.
"Chen Pai~"
Jiang Shui quickly squatted down and asked with concern.
Chen Guotao's eyes were red. He didn't care about his legs. Instead, he stared at the finish line in front of him and roared, "The finish line is right there!"
"Yes, it's right there. Hold on, Pai Chen, we'll be successful soon!" Although Jiang Shui was reluctant, he still followed Chen Guotao's words at this time.
He knew that in the body of this man of iron will there was unyielding blood flowing, he would not fall, and his spirit was stronger than anyone else's.
"Let's go~"
Chen Guotao roared like a tiger, stretched out his hands and crawled forward.
"Pai Chen~" Misty eyes rose in Jiang Shui's eyes . This time, Chen Guotao did not struggle to get up. He knew that Chen Guotao must be in great pain, so much pain that he did not dare to stand up.
But he still didn't give up, using his own hands to drive his body forward.
"Captain~"
"Chen Pai~"
Geng Jihui and others rushed over and ran to Chen Guotao's side.
"I'm going to succeed~"
“I’m almost at the finish line~”
"I'm going to be a special forces soldier~"
“…”
Chen Guotao kept saying one sentence after another. He knew the condition of his legs well and the pain was gnawing at his nerves. But the goal was right in front of him. How could he be willing to give up?
Even if you have to crawl, you will reach the end.
"Pah~"
Chen Guotao gripped the ground hard with his hands and exerted force with his arms.
"Swish~" the body moves forward a little.
"Pah~"
"Shua~"
"Pah~"
“…”
Chen Guotao's fingers had started to bleed, but he still didn't care, as if he was not the one injured. He just stared straight at the finish line and crawled forward little by little.
Gao Dazhuang and others at the finish line couldn't help but turn their heads. Chen Guotao completely moved them. Chen Guotao was using his persistence to interpret what it meant to never give up.
Finally, Chen Guotao climbed to the finish line.
…
In the monitoring room.
"Good boy!"
Fan Tianlei praised him in a very serious manner, with admiration uncontrollably revealed in his eyes.
He had shown this kind of look when he discovered Gong Jian. It has been five years since then.
"Go and find out for me what's wrong with his legs!" Fan Tianlei said to Chen Shanming who was standing behind him.
"Yes, number five!" Chen Shanming turned and left.
Chen Shanming, a soldier with the rank of captain, was also trained by Fan Tianlei. After the handover of the position of chief of staff, Fan Tianlei transferred him from the combat team to his side.
