Chapter 19 The First Day of the Base

The bus stopped at the training field of the military training base. Lu You said goodbye to Li Yu and the three, and took the four people who carpooled in the class to their own bus to get their luggage.

Meng Yi followed closely behind Lu You all the way, thinking nonstop.

"You traitor, you traitor..."

Lu You didn't want to pay attention to it at first, but he couldn't stand the monk chanting scriptures, so he could only respond: "Okay, tell me, how did I betray you?"

"You agreed that we would sit together."

"When did I say that? I only promised to let you take the bus of other classes with me, didn't I say that we would sit together?"

"Uh..." Meng Yi was at a loss for words for a moment, but he quickly realized, "You also said that you are single and don't have a girlfriend. As a result, you chatted with girls all the way as soon as you got in the car."

"It's true that I don't have a girlfriend now, but that doesn't mean I can't talk to girls, right? Is this also called betrayal?"

Thinking of the appearance of the two girls who were talking to Lu You in the car, Meng Yi's eyes turned red, "I'm so sour, can you show me them."

"No." Lu You refused without saying a word. "If you really want to get to know each other, just go to them yourself and say, I don't try to make connections, and I don't provide any personal information."

"It's so stingy, this is so serious before you become a girlfriend." Meng Yi muttered in a low voice.

"It's not a matter of being stingy or not." Lu You said in a serious tone, "Leaking out other people's personal information without my permission can easily cause trouble to others. This is my basic principle of life."

Seeing him getting serious, Meng Yi didn't bother anymore, but stroked his own bangs, and said confidently: "Okay, I'll walk up to them when the time comes. I think you can even talk to them, With your outstanding temperament, Brother Meng and I, it is not a problem to make friends with them, and it is not impossible to have a further relationship."

Lu You turned his head, looked at him with a half-smile and said, "You'd better not say that you are my deskmate when you strike up a conversation. When they come to ask me, I will just say that I don't know you."

"Cut." Meng Yi said disdainfully, "When does Brother Meng need to use other people's reputation to strike up a conversation?"

"That's the best."

1 minute later.

"Brother Lu, can't you really say that I know you?" Meng Yi asked humbly.

"'Brother Meng needs to rely on other people's reputation' to strike up a conversation." Lu You repeated what he said in full.

"Brother Meng is just joking, Brother Lu, don't mind."

Lu You sighed, and said: "If you really want to know each other, just walk over in a normal way, say hello, speak with a normal attitude, and be measured. Girls are not devils, as long as you don't behave like that, It’s fine to speak normally.”

Meng Yi was a little moved, "Brother Lu, you agreed..."

"No. You can earn your living and have enough food and clothing." Lu You refused this time before he could finish speaking.

"I haven't said yet..."

"Then stop talking."

The group quickly got their luggage and found the third team in front of the flag raising platform.Lu You consciously came to the front of the team and stood with the deputy squad leader to perform the duties of the squad leader.

After waiting for a while, a group of teachers and a group of instructors in military uniforms came over.

Then a fat man in military uniform walked up to the flag raising platform, holding a big horn in his left hand and a stack of papers in his right hand.

"Ahem." The man cleared his throat and began to read the contents of the paper into the loudspeaker, "Hello, students and teachers from Chunhua. I am the person in charge of your military training. My surname is Fu. You can call me Captain Fu when you see him. Don’t ask why there is no official leader, don’t ask such boring questions, it will make you look naive. First of all, welcome to our military training base..."

Then there is a big push of all kinds of rules, arrangements and so on.Lu You really wanted to talk about it directly, but because of his responsibilities, he could only listen carefully to the speech and summarize useful things

Basically, every morning at 11:[-], there will be a loudspeaker to wake up. At [-]:[-], they must gather in front of the flag-raising platform to raise the flag and sing the national anthem. There will be a special inspection.In the afternoon, we gather at two o'clock and at six o'clock in the evening.At [-] o'clock in the middle of the night, the lights must be turned off to sleep and so on.

Head Fu bbed with a loudspeaker for more than half an hour, talking about various rules and things about his military camp back then.

Although there were a few white clouds covering the sun in the sky, the temperature of [-] degrees Celsius still made Lu You's entire back drenched.I could only straighten my back, not to let the travel bag get on my back, and there were fine beads of sweat on my forehead.

At this time, Lu You looked like he was dying, and the student team also had a little commotion because of the heat.

Head Fu seemed to realize that he had been talking for a while, so he quickly ended the topic and said, "This is the end of today's speech. Each class follows its own instructor. Disband now, and exit from both sides in an orderly manner."

A young man with a serious expression and Mr. Zeng came to Lu You.Looking up and down at Lu You and Li Womeng, he asked, "Are you from Class 3 ([-])?"

"Yes." Lu You replied.

"Lead the team to follow."

The whole group walked to the side of a dormitory building, and there were already two groups of people standing downstairs.Lu You found Tang Wan and Li Yu in the crowd.

The young instructor stopped in his tracks, turned around and said to the whole class, "Here we are. Remember this location, we will gather here in the future."

After everyone roughly remembered the position, he continued: "Let me introduce myself first. My surname is Liu, and you can call me Instructor Liu. The general process and rules of the military training have just been mentioned by Commander Fu, so I will not I’ll repeat it again. But I still have to talk about some details. We are Class Three, here is the Third Company, and we form a performance camp with the other First, Second, and Fourth Companies. The specific performance will be arranged tomorrow.”

"Tell me about the inspection standards of the dormitory. Nothing can be left in the aisle, and your luggage and everything should be placed under the bed. The bedding and mosquito nets on the bed must be stacked according to the standard. I will teach you how to stack them in the afternoon."

"Then there are toilets. Each of your dormitories will have four clothes rails. The first one near the windowsill is for drying military coats, the second for drying clothes, and you arrange the rest yourself. There are some others that you can't remember for the time being. Let’s talk when we meet.”

"The last is your dormitory, which is just in front of the dormitory building. Boys are in 206 to 208, and girls are in 507 to 508. Your respective bed arrangement has been posted on the door. You must strictly follow the arrangement and align one by one. Now, Give you 10 minutes, go to the dormitory to find a bed, put your luggage, and then gather here. Disband!"

Everyone took their luggage and walked quickly to the dormitory building.

Luckily, Lu You found his name directly in 208, and the bed happened to be the first to go to bed on the right hand side of the door.

Once in the dormitory, Lu You lived in Bengbu.

"Damn it! There's really no fan."

Then there were a few more complaints.

"Nm, this toilet is even worse than when I was in junior high school!"

"Why is this broken door rotten down? Didn't you see all the shit?"

"At that time, I will wait until the lights are turned off before pulling it out."

……

Soon everyone gathered at the original location again.

Instructor Liu still had a serious expression on his face. He looked at his watch first, then nodded to everyone, and said, "That's right, we'll all be assembled within 10 minutes. Next, let's line up. After the line is up, follow me to get it." Each of you has military uniforms, plastic buckets, and small chairs. You can disband and move around freely after you get all your stuff, and gather at this location at 2 p.m., and all of you must wear military uniforms."

By the time Lu You returned to the dormitory with a bucket of military uniforms and a small plastic chair in hand, it was almost 11:30.

Sitting down on the bed that got out of bed, he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Ah~ I'm really hot and tired."

Meng Yi's bed was just right where Lu You got out of bed, and he also sat aside.

"Going to eat? Together?"

Lu You shook his head and said, "I won't eat with you."

"Eating with girls again?" Meng Yi clenched his fists.

"Otherwise?" Lu You glanced at him, then stood up, "Let's take a step first, see you later."

……

Lu You and Li Yu waited in line to make dinner, and found a corner to sit down.As for girls?That's not the case, the relationship between the four of them is not to the point where they can eat together casually.

The two looked at the lumpy rice like bricks, a few long strips of green vegetables, and a few pieces of fat connected together that looked like pork, and they were silent.

Li Yu was the first to break the silence, "How do you say?"

"I have nothing to say. I have prepared that the food here will be terrible, but all this is beyond my expectation." Lu You's face was serious.

Li Yu rubbed something that could be called pork with a spoon, and his whole body was covered with goosebumps, "mmp, I can't eat anymore, let's go to the small shop to buy something else."

Lu You rummaged through the lunch box and found a piece of lean meat after a lot of hard work. Then he scooped it up with a spoon, and there was still some sticky juice sticking to it.

Looking at the fingernail-sized lean meat in the spoon, Lu Youcai said after some ideological struggle, "Let me try the taste first, and then go to the canteen if I can't eat it. I can't stop eating at the restaurant for a week." After finishing speaking, he took the spoon Put it in your mouth.

After just two bites, Lu You's expression twisted.

"How is it? Can I eat it?"

Lu You closed his eyes and swallowed directly.After a while, I said, "I'm curious, how they managed to turn lean meat into the fishy and greasy feeling of fat."

"How would you rate the canteen?"

"I can't die physically, but I want to die psychologically." After thinking for a while, Lu You replied.

"Let's go, go back to the commissary."

The two got up, picked up the full lunch box, and walked towards the swill bucket.

Lu You sighed: "It's the first time I cook, and it tastes better than this stuff."

"Ah..." Li Yu remembered the beef brisket and tofu at his house, "I want to eat your cooking."

"Let's talk about it after the military training, there are still a few days."

"Then how do you live these few days?" Li Yu's face was a little gray, as if there was no light in life.

Lu You could only say bitterly: "How do you live? It's a victory if you live. Buy some fish, chili sauce, olives and so on."

"That's the only way to go." Li Yu responded listlessly.

After washing the lunch box, the two left the dining hall and walked on the way to the canteen.

It happened that they met Tang Wan and Xu Nian head-on next to the dormitory.

"Are you finished eating? So fast!" Xu Nian greeted Li Yu and Lu You.

Logan smiled and waved to them, "Hello."

Seeing Tang Wan's exquisite face and a warm smile like a spring breeze, Lu You suddenly had the motivation to survive the hell's canteen.

"I'm done eating, now I'm going to go to the canteen." Li Yu replied with a little hesitation.

Xu Nian didn't feel anything strange in his words, and continued, "You guys eat so fast, that's why we plan to go. How's the food in the canteen today?"

After hearing this, Lu You immediately put on a serious expression and said, "It's very delicious, I strongly recommend you to try it, it's not as scary as those people said."

"Really?" Xu Nian was a little puzzled, "I remember when we came to junior high school, it was pretty normal, right?"

Li Yu also put on the same expression as Lu You at this time, "There will always be some changes in three years. Although the dormitory here is still so dilapidated, the canteen has indeed improved, and it is worth a try." After finishing speaking, he turned to Lu You You look around.

The two looked at each other and nodded at the same time.

Hearing this, Xu Nian felt a little more anticipation in his heart, and then took Tang Wan's wrist and said, "Wanwan, let's go, I want to go to the cafeteria to see it."

"Well, let's go." Logan then said to the two: "Let's go first, goodbye."

"By the way, Logan, what kind of instant noodles do you usually eat? Can you recommend it to me?" Lu You asked quickly.

Logan felt a little strange, how could he talk about instant noodles?But still replied: "Not spicy, what about stewed chicken with mushrooms, tonkotsu ramen, etc."

Lu You poked Li Yu with his elbow, motioning for him to speak.

Li Yu also hurriedly asked, "What about Xu Nian?"

"Me? I'm similar to Wanwan." Xu Nian also looked puzzled, wondering what they were thinking.

"Then you go to the dining hall quickly, otherwise it will be bad to wait for a lot of people." Lu You began to urge the two to leave.

Although Xu Nian was still full of question marks, eating was the first priority at the moment, putting everything else aside first, and then dragged Tang Wan to the dining hall.

Lu You and Li Yu looked at the backs of the two girls leaving with pity.

"Let's go, go to the canteen and buy bucket noodles to make amends for them." Lu You patted Li Yu's shoulder.

"Well, just wait here after you buy it, and look more sincere. And there are many people around, so I'm not afraid of them doing it." Li Yu was already taking remedial measures after cheating.
