The Heartless Mage Chapter 208: Sword and slash

April evening, there is already a little warmth. Su Tao, who was wearing a military uniform, sat on the long-distance bus, attracting countless envious eyes. How glorious are the soldiers of the People's Liberation Army, who would dare not look at her highly?

She was restless all the way, the car was still a long way from the long-distance bus station, and she had already squeezed her heart to the door of the car. When the car arrived at the station, she did not maintain the dignity of the soldiers of the People's Liberation Army. The moment the door opened, she jumped out first. Staggering to stand firm and looking up, she saw Wuxin in front of her.

Like most young people today, Wuxin is wearing a half-new military uniform and is clean and neat. Standing in place without moving, he seemed embarrassed and just smiled while carrying a thermal bucket. So Su Tao laughed, too, she didn't look like an adult, Hu Jun Ge's hoarse voice became thinner, her growth was in vain, and she returned to the way she was three months ago.

It was dark, and the night just became the curtain for Wuxin and Su Tao. After they walked together, Su Tao spoke first: "The car is driving very slowly, how long did you wait?"

Inadvertently, I lowered my head and unscrewed the round lid of the heat preservation bucket, and then presented the heat preservation bucket to Su Tao: "Eat."

Su Tao looked down at the light of the street lamp and found three cream ice cream sticks in the heat preservation bucket. She hurriedly reached out and took out one, she urged Wuxin: "Hurry up and cover it up, the air-conditioning is gone."

Inadvertently screwed the lid: "Are you hungry? I must be hungry." Then he raised his hand and patted Su Tao's back: "Why haven't you grown?"

Su Tao took a sip of the ice cream: "It's not long enough, I'm considered a medium in the recruit class!"

Inadvertently patted her again, but it wasn't enough, but it's not good to have more than one shot. Turning to touch her hair again, he has countless things to ask: "My hair is also astringent, is it lack of nutrition? Can I eat meat in a few days?"

Su Tao happily walked forward: "It depends on whether you are good enough. Anyway, there are a few pieces of fat in a pot of stewed cabbage. Whoever can grab it will eat it!"

Wuxin looked down at her condescendingly: "Can you grab it?"

Su Tao remembered the little skills she had cultivated in the military camp, and couldn't help but feel a little proud: "I can usually grab it, I'm quick."

Wunxin stopped talking, and let Su Tao concentrate on eating ice cream. The two walked along the street, and finally bypassed a university campus, taking Su Tao home unintentionally. The two rooms inside and outside were tidy up in advance by him, and a single bed against the wall was also laid flat. The white glaze was placed on the pillow, the big owl was squatting on the corner of the bed, and the two living creatures were also unintentionally cleaned up, and they looked different. There is a small foreign stove in the corner by the door, and a small pile of coal is piled next to the stove. A small iron pot was sitting on the stove, and the aroma of the rice was overflowing from the gap of the lid.

Three months after Su Tao's strict barriers, she now has a feeling of disarming and returning to the field. Turning around and locking the door, she sighed subconsciously, then ran to the stove, bent over, lifted the lid of the pot and took a deep breath: "Good rice, really fragrant."

Without waiting for Wuxin to answer, she got up, walked to the bed and sat down, took off her shoes and folded her legs, and then hugged Bai Liuli into her arms. Holding the other person's round head and kissing her, she suddenly remembered that there was still an ice cream in the insulation bucket. Stepping on the upper of the shoe with one foot and getting out of bed, she picked up the thermal insulation bucket from the end of the bed: "Wuxin, I ate it all!"

Wuxin stood on the ground, turning left and right, looking like a commotion from beginning to end: "Eat, eat, there are plenty of delicious food at home, enough for you to eat all day tomorrow! I will leave the restaurant at noon. I bought two kinds of stir-fried vegetables and stewed a pot of spareribs, right?"

As he spoke, he crouched on the edge of the bed and pulled out a bamboo basket from under the bed. The baskets contained large and small parcels, full of snacks, and even fudge and chocolate. Su Tao knelt on the bed and stretched out her hand to pick it up: "Wuxin, are you good enough?"

Her head was just in front of Wuxin, Wuxin couldn't help it for a while, and kissed the hair spinner on top of her head: "Eat your food, I always have Lao Jun's money."

His lips were soft, so soft that Su Tao shivered, and the ice cream in his hand could barely hold. A face was hidden in the fluffy short hair, she lowered her head and continued to mutter: "I use you to work? I have food and drink in the team..." Before she finished speaking, she suddenly straightened her waist, I took out eighteen dollars from my pocket: "Here you are. I've saved up all three months' allowance - I'm useless to ask for money, and I have nowhere to spend it."

Inadvertently took the banknotes, sorted them one by one, rolled them into a roll, and put them back into her pocket: "Don't give me the money, I'm afraid I won't be able to save it."

Su Tao looked at him and suspected that he was living with her: "It's useless for me to ask for money."

Wuxin flicked her finger on her head: "I know you don't spend money, so I put the money in your hands. You save it well, and we will spend more money in the future."

When Su Tao heard this, she was happy again: "That's right, I can save more money than you. If I was a soldier for two years, I wouldn't have to pay for food, drink, and clothes, and I could always save one or two hundred yuan."

Inadvertently, I bent over and carried the basket to the bed: "I'm going to stew the meat, you eat yours, don't give the white lady candy. Look at how fat he is, the fatter he gets, the more greedy he gets. It's all night owls who are used to him. !”

Su Tao picked out a piece of chocolate from the basket: "Don't always talk about Bai Niangzi, Bai Niangzi understands human nature and understands everything."

Bai Liuli put her head on Su Tao's thigh, because she really knew everything, so she wasn't happy at all. The house was gradually filled with the smell of meat, there was no table, rice and hot stir-fried vegetables were all laid out on the ground. The last pot of stewed meat also appeared, and Su Tao showed Wuxin her new appetite—she used a large lunch box to put rice and soaked it in broth, and after eating one box, she came back to another box. The broken hair on her forehead was wet with sweat, and she ate and drank heartily. Wuxin saw her appetite and was almost a little scared: "Don't eat it, can your stomach take it?"

Su Tao waved to him holding chopsticks, puffed her cheeks and told him: "I can still eat."

Wuxin has nothing to say and wants to divert her attention: "Have you contacted Uncle Tian yet?"

Su Tao's lips really left the lunch box temporarily: "I made a long-distance call half a month ago. He told me to work hard and said he could find a way to get me to the military school in the future."

Wunxin's eyes lit up: "Going to the military school? After graduating from the military school, do you have a place in your life?"

Su Tao nodded: "Military school graduates can stay in the army as cadres. But I don't want to go."

He asked her innocently, "Why?"

Su Tao was busy talking and no longer devoured it: "I don't want to be in the army all my life. If you are not free in the army, your marriage partner will be censored. I'm afraid they won't let me live with you. I've figured it out, I'll be a sanitation soldier in the army for two years, and I'll either go to a factory or a hospital after I'm discharged from the army. Anyway, factories and hospitals are good places, what do you think?"

He smiled noncommittally, thinking how could army cadres and worker nurses be the same thing?

But he didn't say much, just said: "I think Uncle Tian is really a good person and takes good care of you."

Su Tao stretched out her chopsticks and fished out a piece of oily meat bone from the pot: "He's been good to me, and he even asked his second child to send me nutritional supplements a few times. Wuxin, it's interesting, he The second child also has big teeth."

Inadvertently asked again: "How old is his second child?"

Su Tao was stopped by him, thinking and guessing: "I don't know, he looks older than me and younger than you. He is different from Uncle Tian. Uncle Tian is serious, but the second child is not serious, always sticky. It's fuzzy, and he loves to look at it. Last time he wore only an imported watch, and he stroked his sleeves a dozen times in front of me. Hey! I haven't seen an imported watch before?"

Wuxin lowered his head and ate vegetables with a lot of thought: "What unit is the second child in?"

Su Tao prepared to swallow the meat and bones. Before swallowing the whale, she replied in a hurry: "I am also a soldier, an air force."

Inadvertently looked up and wanted to ask again, but there was no chance. Su Tao was so absorbed in eating that he was reluctant to interrupt her good interest.

After cleaning the pots and pans, Su Tao got into the single bed as usual. Bai Liuli was placed on the bedside railing in a cold-eyed attitude. The lights in the room were turned off, and he sat on the edge of the bed unintentionally, taking off his clothes in a rustling manner. After lying on his back, he stretched out his arms and used Su Tao as a pillow. Su Tao's head was hot and heavy, and the thick short hair rubbed against his arms. He turned over to face her: "Peach, after leaving the company, did anyone bully you?"

Su Tao leaned against him on the pillow, spreading her arms and legs warmly: "The veterans bully people the most. We have to wash their clothes every day, and they also rob us of our food."

Wuxin raised his hand in the duvet, trying to find a way to fall, but didn't know where to fall: "Did they beat people?"

Su Tao didn't realize his cowardice and desire: "Fight! It's really hard. But I only suffered once - they rushed into the dormitory and made us stand in a team, taking turns to slap us in the mouth. I endured it. I couldn't stop fighting back and stabbed them in the eyes with the handle of the toothbrush. In fact, it was just to scare them, I couldn't really stab them, but they were scared, and they said they would kill me while they retreated."

Although I know that what Su Tao said are all past events, Wuxin still hangs his mind: "And then?"

Su Tao didn't laugh anymore, looked at the dark ceiling and replied, "Then? Then they didn't find me again."

With an unintentional sigh, he stretched out his hand to grab Su Tao's shoulder, and pulled her into his arms: "Tao Tao, without me, you can... can you?"

Su Tao closed her eyes and pressed her forehead to his chest: "Don't worry, I can do it. Recruit training is the hardest, didn't I survive the three months safely? Besides, Uncle Tian also often Take care of me, even the leaders in the li are very kind to me."

Inadvertently raised his face and rubbed the top of Su Tao's head with his chin. Su Tao was turned into a kitten and a puppy by him. He stroked her shoulders and back, wishing he could touch her until it melted, and then sucked and ate her.

He likes her, especially her. He played all the roles she could rely on. She wanted him to be her father, and he was her father; she wanted him to be her brother, and he was her brother. Burying his face in Su Tao's hair, he still wanted to be her husband, but unfortunately in today's big age, he is not qualified.

Slightly raised his head and approached Su Tao's face, he brushed the tip of his nose with his eyelashes. His lips trembled and opened, and he kissed her forehead lightly.

He kissed her, she pouted childishly, and wanted to kiss him. The kiss is a real kiss, a big mouthful of "ba" is loud enough to make people want to laugh. So Wuxin really laughed, laughing and whispering: "Peach!"

Su Tao opened her eyes and looked at her: "Huh?"

Nothing to say. Supporting his body with one elbow, he stared at her sadly and desolately: "Peach, why haven't you grown up yet?"

Su Tao looked up to meet his gaze: "I don't want to grow up. I'm afraid that if I change, you will too."

She said seriously to Wuxin: "We don't want to change!"

Unintentional fingers run through her hair: "I don't change, never change."

Su Tao raised her hand to touch his face. In the hazy night, her unintentional face was like a white jade emerging from a deep pool. I don't know how many years it had been soaked in clear water and black mud. It was wet and cold. Not at all alive. The hairs all over her body suddenly stood up, and Su Tao found that she had not investigated Wuxin's origin. I don't know where he was born and where he grew up.

With the palm of her hand against the unintentional skin, Su Tao panicked for no reason, fearing that he would come without warning and leave without warning.

"Two years - another two years." She said incoherently, almost like a plea: "Don't leave, wait for me for two years?"

Wanxin lay down and made Su Tao's pillow and Su Tao's quilt: "Sleep, sleep, I won't leave, I'm still waiting for you to retire for me in two years!"

Su Tao got the guarantee and went to sleep with peace of mind. Wuxin hugged her calmly, a moment of hugging is a moment, a moment is less than a moment. In fact, he just saw her as a poor little girl at the beginning. He didn't expect her to live into his heart.

As if it was just a blink of an eye, the sky was bright, and I had no intention of getting up to get food and drink for Su Tao. Su Tao didn't have the chance to talk to him at length again, because his mouth was not idle, and food was supplied from morning to night. As it was almost evening, she accidentally stuffed two pieces of chocolate into Su Tao's pocket. Su Tao sat beside the bed and sighed: "Oh, I don't know when I can ask for leave next time!"

Inadvertently, he kept his hands and feet incessantly, and cleverly hid candy on Su Tao's body. In the end, crouching on the ground beside the bed, he grabbed one of Su Tao's ankles and put on her liberation shoes. Su Tao saw that he was so busy that he didn't say a word, but felt sorry for him, and wanted to let him rest, but he went out the door with the thermal insulation bucket, and came back after a while and said, "Tao Tao, it's time to go, if you don't go, you won't be able to catch up with the long distance. The car is gone."

Su Tao said goodbye to Bai Liuli and the big owl, and then followed Wuxin downstairs to the street. There are three ice creams in the insulation bucket, enough for her to eat all the way.

Su Tao has hope in her heart, so she walks vigorously. When she arrived at the long-distance bus station, she took the last ice cream from Wuxin's hand, then turned around and squeezed into the car, grabbing a window seat in the last row. Wuxin stood outside and waved to her through the car window.

As usual, nothing out of the ordinary. The car started, Su Tao opened the window, stuck her head out and shouted, "I'm leaving, I'll find a way to ask for another leave next month, go home!"

Wuxin stood under a street lamp that was about to be turned on, did not answer, just stared at him fixedly. Su Tao sucked the ice cream and looked back, seeing that he was getting further and further away from him, and the shadow was getting smaller and smaller.

The wind lifted her short hair, and the conductor yelled at her to put her head back. Her spirit of wandering the world came up again, and she ate ice cream while thinking about how to ask for leave next time.

Wu Xin waited until the long-distance bus disappeared without a trace, and then walked home slowly.

This time, he was really relieved. It turned out that Tao Tao was doing well, at least he was able to eat and wear warm clothes, and he had some skills and ideas. He was not a soft egg who was bullied for nothing. Such a beautiful little girl, supported by the head of Tian, ​​will go to a military school for a few years in the future, and become a cadre after graduation. Isn't it all right?

Long pain is worse than short pain. Wuxin said to himself: "You old man can be cruel, but don't hurt others. The little girl is ignorant, so aren't you?"

Then he laughed at himself in the early spring night wind - sooner or later, he had his destiny.

On the fifth day after returning to the team, Su Tao received a letter from Wuxin.

She was so busy during the day that she was reluctant to scribble through letters. She put the letter close to her body, she plans to keep it for the evening and then read it slowly, thinking that Wuxin must be missing herself, otherwise, why did she send the letter again after meeting?
