“We are all afraid of heights, but we have to get through this! If there were tens of millions of people waiting for your support below, would you jump or not?”
“You can choose not to jump because you are afraid of heights. But let me tell you, I will jump because that is the meaning of being a soldier, to protect the country and the people!”
Fatty Zhang said word by word, his eyes full of encouragement for Li Erniu.
“Think about your strongest trio. Both of them can easily jump down. Are you going to drag them down?”
“Forget it. If you can’t do it, let me jump first when we reach the exit area. You can just follow the plane back to the ground.”
Li Erniu remained silent.
However, at this moment, his heart had already been completely messed up by Fatty Zhang’s words.
Li Erniu took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down.
He began to recall every word Fatty Zhang said.
Fatty Zhang was right. If there were tens of millions of people who needed him down there, if he did not parachute because of his fear of heights, it would be putting tens of millions of people in deep trouble.
Moreover, Fatty Zhang was afraid of heights like him, but at this moment, he was not afraid at all.
Yet, he had once again wasted everyone’s time. Was this really appropriate?
Whether he jumped or not, it was up to him.
Thinking of Fatty Zhang’s words, He Chenguang, and w.a.n.g Yanbing’s encouragement, Li Erniu made a decision. At this moment, the commander’s voice was heard. “One minute to the exit area!”
“Commander, can I jump first?” Fatty Zhang asked.
In fact, this was Fatty Zhang’s last fire for Li Erniu. He did not want to mock Li Erniu.
Instead, he wanted to tell Li Erniu through his actions that if he, who was afraid of heights, could jump down, then Li Erniu could definitely do the same.
Looking at the expressionless Li Erniu, the commander nodded.
“No need! I can jump!” Li Erniu said firmly.
At this moment, the commander and Fatty Zhang smiled.
“Good job! ” The commander patted Li Erniu’s shoulder.
“We all want to see how the cow flies.” Fatty Zhang teased.
Li Erniu was amused by Fatty Zhang’s words and said with a smile, “Then you have to open your eyes wide.”
The commander glanced at his watch. “Ready!”
Li Erniu once again walked to the front of the cabin. However, this time, his face did not have the same timidity as before. There was only confidence on his face.
“Jump!”
Following the commander’s voice, Li Erniu jumped without hesitation.
Fatty Zhang followed closely behind.
Qin Yuan happened to pick up the binoculars and saw this scene. After seeing Fatty Zhang’s figure, the corners of Qin Yuan’s mouth curled up.
Fatty Zhang did not disappoint him!
“Let’s go.” Qin Yuan put down the binoculars and said to Long Xiaoyun.
“Not watching anymore? What if something happens?
What else do you have to worry about?”
“That’s true. Aren’t you going to take a look at your team?”
“There’s nothing to see. We can’t stay by their side forever, can we?”
Long Xiaoyun suddenly understood something. Although this group of people still needed to be taught and trained in many aspects, they needed to experience the process of growth themselves.
“Not good, Captain!” A familiar voice came from not far away.
The two of them turned around. It was Zheng Xiaohu.
Zheng Xiaohu ran anxiously to Qin Yuan as he panted and shouted.
“Captain! Something bad has happened!”
Looking at Zheng Xiaohu who was in a hurry, Qin Yuan frowned slightly.
Long Xiaoyun looked at Zheng Xiaohu in confusion.
“What happened? Why are you so fl.u.s.tered?” Qin Yuan reprimanded.
As a soldier, no matter what happened, the most important thing was to keep a clear head.
Anxious couldn’t solve the problem. Instead, it would only make things more chaotic.
“Captain, Geng Hu is missing.”
“What is it? Disappeared? Didn’t you guys parachute together?” After hearing Zheng Xiaohu’s words, Qin Yuan was stunned.
“What happened?” Long Xiaoyun’s expression became serious.
“We were parachuting together. We didn’t know what happened to Geng Hu when we were halfway through the flight.”
Zheng Xiaohu explained.
“It’s not his first time parachuting. How could this happen?
Qin Yuan could not figure out what had happened to Geng Hu.
“Didn’t you see him at the landing area?” Qin Yuan asked.
Zheng Xiaohu nodded. ‘We’ve searched everywhere, but we didn’t see him.”
“Let’s go take a look.” As Qin Yuan spoke, he walked in the direction of Team I’s training.
“I’ll go with you.” Long Xiaoyun caught up to Qin Yuan and Zheng Xiaohu.
After arriving at the landing area of Team 1, Qin Yuan and the other two looked around again, but they did not see Geng Hu at all.
“Captain, what do we do now?”
“Let’s go to the forest next door and take a look.” Qin Yuan said thoughtfully.
If he didn’t land in the designated area, it was very likely that he landed in the nearby forest.
“Then I’ll go get the others to come with me.” Zheng Xiaohu said as he went to look for the others.
“Come back!” He didn’t know what was going on, so he didn’t want so many people to know about it, lest it cause unnecessary panic.
Qin Yuan seemed to have thought of something again.
Zheng Xiaohu shook his head. “I was the only one who noticed that Geng Hu was missing. The others went back to training as soon as they landed.”
“That’s good.”
With that, the three of them walked into the forest.
Deep in the forest.
The three of them split up and searched for Geng Huts figure, but they did not see him.
The three of them returned to the agreed place.
“Captain, I still haven’t seen him.” Zheng Xiaohu said bitterly. “I don’t see him here either.” Long Xiaoyun shook her head.
“Where did this kid go?” Qin Yuan was worried. “Team… Captain!” A weak voice sounded.
“There seems to be a sound.” Long Xiaoyun spoke first.
“Captain, that sounds like Geng Hu’s voice!” Zheng Xiaohu shouted excitedly.
Usually, he had the best relationship with Geng Hu, so he was 100% sure that this voice belonged to Geng Hu!
Qin Yuan nodded. “It’s him.”
The three of them walked in the direction of the voice and saw Geng Hu hanging on a tree.
The three of them finally understood why they did not see Geng Hu after searching the entire forest.
He was hanging on a tree.
“Geng Hu!” Zheng Xiaohu shouted.
“Xiaohu, quickly get me down.” Geng Hut s voice was still weak, but there was a hint of excitement in it.
Zheng Xiaohu didn’t hesitate at all and climbed up the tree. However, when he saw the tall and strong Geng Hu, Zheng Xiaohu was in a dilemma.
“Captain, how do we get Geng Hu down?”
Geng Hu was much stronger than Zheng Xiaohu. It would be fine if it was on flat ground, Zheng Xiaohu could carry Geng Hu without any problems.
However, the problem was that they were on the tree now. If they carried Geng Hu on their backs, it would be very difficult for the two of them to come down.
“Should we just push him down?” Zheng Xiaohu whispered.
This height was not low!
“Don’t do that. I hung on the tree because I had a cramp on my hand. If you pushed me down, won’t I break my bones?” Geng Hu snapped. “What happened?” Zheng Xiaohu asked in confusion.
“Can’t you let me go down first?” “The question is how do we get down?”
The two of them stared at each other.
“Zheng Xiaohu, come down!” Qin Yuan shouted at the person on the tree. “Come down?” Zheng Xiaohu did not understand what Qin Yuan meant.
However, Zheng Xiaohu still quickly climbed down.
In the next second, Qin Yuan jumped and climbed up the tree.
Immediately after, Qin Yuan let Geng Hu lean on his back and climbed down with Geng Hu on his back.
Qin Yuan carefully placed Geng Hu on the ground.
“Tell me, what exactly happened?” Qin Yuan asked.
“When I was parachuting, my hand suddenly cramped and I didn’t have the strength to control the direction. Then, I fell into this forest.”
“I thought that it would be fine if I fell into the forest, but I ended up hanging on a tree. I even sprained my left foot. It hurts badly when I move.”
“Otherwise, I would have come down by myself.” Geng Hu explained.
“Hahahaha! You deserve it.” Zheng Xiaohu laughed as he gloated over Geng Hu’s misfortune.
Qin Yuan and Long Xiaoyun looked at Zheng Xiaohu in confusion..
