Chapter 621: Why So Agitated?
“Why am I so agitated now? Like we’re going to do something bad.” An Jiaxin followed closely behind Ye Jian. Her eyes were s.h.i.+ning brightly. “We’ve been locked in here for five days. We can finally go out and enjoy the breeze.”
Ye Jian looked at this excited friend of hers and smiled slightly, “Continue being happy for now while you can, I’ll see if you can smile later.”
“Don’t scare me, I haven’t had my breakfast.” An Jiaxin flinched and became a little nervous, “I thought it was quite fun, now that you’ve said this, I’m nervous now.”
They would only get breakfast after five kilometers. Ye Jian followed the group and whispered, “Don’t be nervous, there’s still me. Follow me closely, don’t run off alone. Ye Ying was the last one to return yesterday, we need to be careful today.”
“That jerk!” An Jiaxin gritted her teeth and stared at Ye Ying’s back. She squinted her eyes slightly and whispered back, “How about we teach her a lesson?”
The cla.s.s behind had already started to move. Ye Jian held her and sped up for a few steps. She then laughed indifferently, “What’s the rush? She got the short end of the stick yesterday. Even if there was any movement, she wouldn’t do it herself. It’s not like we don’t know her. Don’t be anxious. I’m just reminding you.”
She struck yesterday. It wasn’t like Ye Ying if she struck again today.
“Follow closely and talk less. Don’t spend all your energy on talking!” The instructor kept reminding the students pa.s.sing by in front of him, and the two girls immediately kept quiet.
Breakfast was only available after five kilometers, and the gusto they had slowly disappeared. They haven’t even made it through half of the distance and there were students already starting to slow down. Some even yelled that they were hungry.
Cla.s.smates from different dormitories were walking together, encouraging each other as they marched. If they couldn’t move, they leaned on each other. They couldn’t just leave their cla.s.smates behind.
Li Qian was fat but weak. If it wasn’t for Ye Jian carrying her, no one would be able to move her.
A few boys offered their help, but Li Qian was shy. When the boys went close to her, her face would turn as red as a tomato. She wouldn’t let the boys help her. She was stopping from time to time, and no one knew if she could finish the twenty kilometers.
Twenty kilometers of route march was a challenge for the students, but to the school and the military unit, it wasn’t. That was why the military unit had prepared for this and had set up a logistics station every five kilometers for food and water.
Medical work was also done very well. There was medical staff attached throughout the whole process.
The five-day military training had allowed the instructors to have a better understanding of the physical fitness of the students. They had already told those who were better to take good care of those who were weaker.
Walking five kilometers in the morning was within the students’ tolerance. Seeing that the morale was gradually falling, Cla.s.s One took the lead and broke out in military cadence after they pa.s.sed through the forest.
Instantly, Ye Jian could feel that the small wild animals in a four-mile radius were scared away.
It wasn’t a flat mountain road, but one full of bends. It wasn’t a cement path, but a dirt road. People in front would leave behind a layer of yellow dust as they moved in front.
The morning in the mountains seemed to come earlier because of the thousands of students. When they had completed their five kilometers, it was already bright.
