Chapter 2 – Blue Sword
My name is Ye Tianming, my parents pa.s.sed away when I was very young, it was grandpa who raised me. I practiced martial arts with grandpa until I was fifteen, when he died. Since I had no income, I could only drop out of school and stay at home.
One night, in an alley near my home, I saw a criminal that attempted rape. Thus I did as the teacher taught us, to do good like Lei Feng. In the heat of the moment, I killed at criminal who attempted rape. f.u.c.k, I turned the words of a great person into reality, impulse is the devil.
Thus, I was sentenced to ten months in prison due to manslaughter charges.
When I came back out, I met some delinquents, and started causing trouble in society with them. Since I was very loyal, and had practiced martial arts when I was younger and knew qigong; reached out to the right places, and would fight without caring for my life, I gained my own brothers and turf very quickly. My life was very narrow, and that caused my casual att.i.tude. I didn’t like to be restrained, and had to stick a foot into everything I didn’t like. Hehe… Don’t think that all delinquents cause trouble to the country and the people, I was a delinquent of the new era, with a true sense of justice.
Then, since jiujiu didn’t think it was good for me to continue like that; he took me in and cared for me like his own son, actually their family wasn’t rich. I gained two biaoge, and one biaomei, my biaomei was only younger than me by two days.
Biaomei had a very good friend called Lan Ling, she’s very pretty, and very kind. When she found out about my glorious past, she admired me a lot, and hung around me all the time, asking this and that. I always treated her like my own meimei, I didn’t know that she always liked me. Until a year later, when jiujiu saw that I was still habitually going out with those shady people, he decided to make me to go into the military. Since I had a criminal record, it wasn’t that easy to get me into the military. Thus, he used his contacts, and spent quite a bit of money to get me a place to be a soldier. Actually, I didn’t want to trouble them, I caused quite a bit of trouble for them in that year.
The day before I left, Lan Ling hugged me and kept on crying.
She told me that, she’s always liked me, and said that I must return, and marry me when she grows up, she wanted to be my bride.
I was very moved, this was my first love, I think I will never forget her. I held her soft body tightly, I was terrified of this being a dream, and that she would suddenly disappear when I woke up.
I told her that I would return, and I would definitely marry her, and let her be the most beautiful bride in the world. The ones that came to send me off aside from jiujiu were two brothers that I grew up with, one is called Zhao Jun, the other is called Hu Jian. I told them that after I leave, they definitely have to take good care of Lan Ling until I return.
They nodded furiously, and told me, “Don’t worry Ming-ge, we will take good care of her, we will give her back without harm once you get back.”
Hearing them say that, I left, without turning back. It was because I was scared, scared that once I turn back, I will never want to leave that girl who allowed me to understand what love is.
In the deepest parts of the Taklimakan Desert, there is a secret military facility.
Standing there were all people dressed in camouflage clothes, the oldest was around 30, the youngest was only 18, 19.
The people faced a general there, who wore a general’s uniform, he was about fifty something years old, his entire head covered in white hair, while his body emitted a suffocating aura.
Behind him were three soldiers, but they didn’t have any military rank. The one in the middle was 40 something years old, with only one arm. His face was stern, but it was covered in scars, he was tall and muscular, with a buzz cut. He had large eyes filled with energy and from within, a cold gaze shot out, causing people not to dare to look him straight in the eye. His whole body released killing intent, causing people to tremble in their hearts, this was an aura only people that have faced life and death situations and have truly been on the battlefield could emit.
Then I looked closely at the people beside him, one had a walking stick, and the other was sitting in a wheel chair. It looks like both of them are soldiers that have retired from the battlefield after getting hurt.
At that time, the general spoke, “Welcome to Blue Sword Special Forces, I am the chief officer here, called Qin Dahai. Since you can come here, it proves that you are all elites, I hope you will not disappoint me in the days to come.”
Then he shouted, “Zhao Weidong, stand out!”
“Yes!” The soldier with only one arm walked forth.
“h.e.l.lo everyone, this is the Blue Sword Special Forces. I am called Zhao Weidong, and am your officer. You have to remember that in here, there are no ranks, no human rights, no dignity. In here, regardless of whether my words are right or wrong, you have to obey without conditions, do you understand?”
“Understood,” Loud voices echoed through the field.
“Since you understand, then repeat it once more.”
“Here, there are no ranks, no human rights, no dignity, we can only obey the words you say.”
Zhao Weidong nodded in satisfaction, “Good, since you know the rules here, you should also know the difficulty of the training. Those who are afraid that they cannot tolerate it can stand out, I’ll send you back. Don’t be scared of losing face, no one will laugh at you here, because since you can come here, that is already proof of your abilities.”
Zhao Weidong looked at the soldiers that stood as straight as flagpoles, the corner of his mouth moved slightly upwards, and he smiled weirdly, “Good, since you have not quit, then go back to organize your bed now, then a.s.semble here in ten minutes.”
