Chapter Five

  They tore open the belly of the giant snake like madmen, pulling out their class leader, who was covered in the snake's viscous fluids. They wept as they used their clothes to wipe away the slime from their class leader's body.

  "Monitor, wake up... Wake up, you... Wake up..." Seawind shouted while sobbing.

  "Monitor, monitor, don't die, don't die. Oh, right, the monitor said that soldiers shed blood but not tears, I won't cry, I won't cry." Hai Feng said as he wiped away his tears.

  "Monitor, look quickly, I'm not crying anymore, hurry up and wake up, don't sleep, don't sleep."

  "What's the use of just crying? Have you forgotten first aid?" Jin Feng shouted loudly at them, and after shouting, he coughed loudly. His hands didn't stop, and another two snakes were chopped in half by him.

  They were all somewhat sobered by Jin Feng's shout.

  "Quick CPR, chest compressions".

  After struggling for half a day, the class leader still didn't move, and now they were really getting desperate.

  The sea breeze wept and pounded the monitor: "Monitor, your willpower is too weak. How can you be so useless? You can't even hold on for a moment. Didn't you teach me to persevere? Didn't you say that faith is the most important thing for soldiers? Where's your faith?"

  The sea breeze was brought up by the class leader, at that time the class leader taught him many things, he regarded the class leader as his own elder brother, so when the class leader died, he was the most heartbroken. The other comrades were frantically chopping and killing those snakes that continued to pounce on them. Everyone's head was flushed with hot blood, they were no longer their former selves. Or at this moment, they were no longer who they used to be. At this moment, they had no fear, no terror, only anger and sorrow.

  They used to train together, get drunk together, and chat about everything. Memories of the past flooded my mind, what kind of feeling is this? Seeing one's comrades fall beside oneself, it's imaginable how heartbreaking and painful it must be.

  The sea breeze kept blowing against the class monitor, who was shouting loudly with a heartbreaking voice that could move heaven and earth. Perhaps it was his shout that moved heaven, and the class monitor slowly opened his eyes, coughing violently several times.

  "It hurts so much when you hit me! A big man like you is crying, didn't I tell you? Soldiers shed blood but not tears."

  Hai Feng saw the class monitor wake up and couldn't believe his eyes, so he rubbed his eyes hard and bit himself fiercely.

  "It hurts, it hurts, it's real, it's real, the class leader is still alive, the class leader is still alive." He shouted loudly to them.

  It was probably the sea breeze that kept pounding on the monitor, causing the already suffocated monitor's nerves to tense up again, making him think that the big snake had started attacking them again. So he woke up again, this is willpower, or faith.

  The monitor woke up and directed them to retreat outside the valley again.

  The snakes that were slowly chasing them began to dwindle, and the weather also gradually cooled down. The comrade who was bitten by the snake earlier had already turned purple around his mouth, and if he didn't receive a blood serum injection soon, his life would be in danger.

  They found a relatively clean open space and laid him flat on the ground. The class leader took out serum from his first-aid kit, which was slowly injected into his arterial blood vessels. Jinfeng went to find some "three-leaf clear" herbal medicine to apply to his wound.

  Seven people were injured, two seriously and five slightly. The squad leader asked for everyone's opinion on whether to continue the exercise or withdraw from it. His own intention was to withdraw from the exercise, as Jin Feng's injury had already made it impossible to continue, and the comrade bitten by the snake also needed to be sent to the hospital as soon as possible. Although everyone was very regretful, just as the army commander said, only after experiencing this test of life and death can one truly understand the meaning of life.

  Sometimes life is so fragile and helpless, when you don't cherish it, it's always around you, but when you want to cherish it, it has already gone far away and will never come back.
