A generation of soldiers begins with Feng Yuxiu traveling through time and space with Xu Sanduo

Chapter 453 Geng Jihui

"Brother Shu, Brother Shu, forget it, let's go tomorrow morning, during the day! It's getting dark, and there's no one left in Wangdu Village. It'll be creepy if we go now. Have you ever seen the Mountain Village Corpse?"

Dezi quickly stepped forward to stop Feng Yuxiu.

"There are too many people during the day; it's only quiet at night."

Ignoring Dezi and Xiaozhuang's attempts to stop him, Feng Yuxiu got into the car and stared at the two of them.

Xiao Zhuang looked helplessly at Dezi, "What should we do?"

Dezi gritted her teeth and said, "Go. Being afraid is more terrifying than being poor. If you don't have money when you get married and are laughed at by the villagers, that's worse than seeing a ghost."

"I've never seen Brother Shu so confident. Maybe he really knows those tricks."

Dezi's words gradually convinced Xiaozhuang.

The two got into the car and drove towards the small road leading to Wangdu Village as dusk fell.

Half an hour later, the car stopped at the intersection at the entrance of Wangdu Village.

To the left is the hillside leading to Ruiyang Mining, where the blood of the dead has been cleaned up.

"Come on, what are you listening to? I heard three people died here, it's creepy," Xiao Zhuang urged, his face full of fear.

Dezi kept pressing the accelerator, the engine roared, and soon the smell of burning plastic filled the car.

"Let's go, this is too damn scary!" Xiao Zhuang clasped his hands together and prayed towards the outside of the car. "Brothers, it was Lao Gao who killed you, it has nothing to do with us, please don't blame us if you feel wronged."

"Damn it, Xiao Zhuang, Brother Shu... the car isn't moving... it seems to be broken." Dezi's voice trembled.

Before them lay the dark, empty village of Wangdu, and behind them stretched even more expansive fields and boundless wilderness.

Moreover, three people had died not long ago next to them.

All of this is being speculated to be related to the underworld.

"Dezi, you...you don't scare me, try again..." Xiao Zhuang trembled as he took out a cigarette and lit it.

Dezi's forehead was instantly covered in sweat; the lower one's education level, the more likely they are to believe in customs and superstitions.

Although they are all born in the 70s and are only in their thirties, they are more like the generation born in the 50s who believe in gods and ghosts.

"Get out of the car."

Feng Yuxiu felt that his thinking was becoming clearer and clearer, and his previous confusion had disappeared.

It's getting dark soon, and he needs to take his medicine.

These past three days, I've only been able to sleep soundly through the night after taking my medication in the evening.

"Brother Shu, what kind of medicine are you taking?"

Xiao Zhuang asked curiously.

"It's for treating mental illness. The doctor said to take one pill every night before bed, otherwise I'll have a relapse."

"Wait!" Xiao Zhuang immediately grabbed Feng Yuxiu's wrist. "Brother Shu, are you sure this is for treating mental illness? Even treating a cold at our town's health center is difficult, let alone mental illness... can they cure it?"

Feng Yuxiu was stunned for a moment, "But it really works."

"Let me see."

Xiao Zhuang took the box from Feng Yuxiu's hand. "Dezi, turn on the light."

"Note: It can calm the nerves... Recommended adult dosage: 1 tablet/day."

"Damn, these are sleeping pills! No wonder you slept so soundly last night."

"Brother Tree, how many will you eat tonight?"

“Two…” Feng Yuxiu’s face turned extremely pale.

"Awesome." Xiao Zhuang gave a thumbs up. "This quack doctor is really something else. He said you were mentally ill and then gave you an overdose of sleeping pills."

Feng Yuxiu was somewhat bewildered. He could read, so why hadn't he read the instructions on the medicine? Could it be that taking too much of this medicine had dulled his senses?

"Throw it away, throw it away. Tree Brother isn't smart to begin with, and if he eats this stuff, he'll become an idiot."

Dezi snatched a handful and threw it into the bushes.

Feng Yuxiu became increasingly anxious. If he didn't take his medicine tonight, would the nightmare from three nights ago reappear?

Moreover, people have died in this place.

"Come on, come on, let's stay at my place for the night first," Dezi called out as he got out of the car.

The sky was just beginning to lighten, not yet completely dark, so there was plenty of time to reach Wangdu Village.

"Okay, let's go now, and take the food from the car with us."

Feng Yuxiu followed Dezi and Xiaozhuang towards Wangdu Village.

They looked back every now and then, and seemed to see three indistinct voices struggling to walk towards them step by step.

"Run..."

Fifteen minutes later, we passed Xiaojuan's hair salon and arrived at Dezi's house.

"There should still be electricity and water. Now that Ruiyang Mining has closed down and the village chief has been arrested, the demolition of Wangdu Village won't be completed anytime soon. We can stay here for a few days and go to Ruiyang Mining tomorrow morning to take a look..."

The door opened, and the three of them went in. Dezi thought for a moment, then turned around and locked the door.

Stepping into the living room, Dezi pulled the light cord and skillfully lit the lamp.

Before long, the cold room was filled with steam. The three of them took off their cotton-padded clothes and threw them on the kang (a heated brick bed), then gathered around the stove to warm themselves.

Several potatoes were buried in the ashes under the stove.

"Damn it, Lao Gao single-handedly turned Wangdu Village into a ghost village, there's not a single person left."

Dezi sighed as he watched the bubbles rising from the stove while boiling water.

Xiao Zhuang handed Feng Yuxiu a cigarette and put it in his mouth. "Old Gao is still the best. He dares to do things and has guts. Now the village chief has been brought down. Ruiyang Mining has also been shut down, and he has successfully driven all the people who were unwilling to relocate to Sun City."

Dezi laughed and said, "Isn't this great? I'm already sick of living here. From now on, we'll be city people too."

Feng Yuxiu sat there in a daze, listening intently. The excessive amount of sleeping pills he had taken over the past few days had made him mentally sluggish.

"Brother Shu, what did you say you were planning to do when you came back?" Xiao Zhuang asked, afraid that Feng Yuxiu would fall asleep.

Feng Yuxiu exclaimed and looked up. "We need to go see a place, but it's dark now. We'll talk about it during the day."

After he finished speaking, he slowly lowered his head and began to doze off.

"Let him sleep. It's so pitiful. He's not very bright to begin with, and now he's taken too many sleeping pills. I wonder if he'll become an idiot in the future."

Neither of them slept for the first half of the night. The thought that this was the only family in the village with their lights on made them feel uneasy.

They didn't even dare to go out into the living room, fearing that some kind of night owl would sneak in.

"Go to sleep, this isn't a solution. How about we go to the bathroom together?" Dezi asked, yawning.

Xiao Zhuang frowned. "I haven't peed yet."

"Let's go, let's go, I'm too scared to go out alone."

Dezi carefully opened the door and went out, pulling Xiaozhuang along.

After the two left, Feng Yuxiu, who had been dozing off in a daze, slowly raised his head. He first looked around blankly, and then his eyes turned cold.

"How long has it been? It feels like so long..."

Feng Yuxiu stood up to check his body's condition and breathed on his arm.

"That good-for-nothing is smoking again!"

Originally, the use of the Ape Strike technique had caused blockages in his meridians and blood vessels. His long-term and frequent smoking had slowed down his blood flow, making it impossible to flush out the seemingly blocked meridian channels.

Hearing the commotion inside the courtyard, Feng Yuxiu went out and looked around at the pitch black surroundings.

He opened the door and went outside.

The night sky was bright, with a silver moon hanging in the sky and a cold wind sweeping through.

He turned and walked step by step toward the hillside he remembered.

If he was completely pure Feng Yuxiu before enlisting, after being exposed to military life, another hidden personality, Weng Haisheng, emerged.

So, over the next few years, the two personalities interacted from time to time.

They gradually began to merge, learning from each other's strengths and making up for each other's weaknesses. After meeting Li Xuanxuan, this personality was further integrated.

Thus, a normal, less stern 'Xu Sanduo' emerged.

However, after each major shock, Feng Yuxiu's fierce personality would briefly reappear.

He briefly appeared when Li Xuanxuan was shot, on the international cruise ship, when the pirates came from Crescent Island, and when he was being chased by Bai Tiejun's village.

However, more often than not, it was after Crescent Island forcibly used the Monkey Strike Technique that these two fused personalities completely separated.

After the invasion of the Ape Strike Technique, the completely pure Feng Yuxiu was stripped away.

Feng Yuxiu strode up the hillside; the village of Wangdu was somewhat eerie under the cover of night.

However, for him, having already killed a whole bunch of people, he could just take out anything else as well.

Half an hour later, Feng Yuxiu stood on the hillside looking around.

He crouched down and stroked the dust on the ground, "Military vehicles..."

Feng Yuxiu stood up and quickly walked around.

"A helicopter... frozen snow-covered military boot prints..."

"What exactly happened up here that would bring the troops here...?"

Feng Yuxiu frowned, turned around and walked to the edge of the cliff. He took a deep breath, grabbed the protrusions on the cliff with both hands, and slid down.

The corpse I remembered has now disappeared; only a vague outline and some black, viscous residue remain.

It seems that this is not just Lao Gao's problem anymore; it must involve some other issues.

We need to find someone and ask what happened here that day...

Feng Yuxiu turned around and climbed up, shivering as he felt the cold wind seeping into his collar.

"We must clear the blocked meridians as soon as possible... otherwise, if we continue to drag this out, we'll become useless."

Feng Yuxiu took a deep breath and stood on the hill, mimicking the same method he had used that night to dislocate his joints.

Lying on the cold ground, I slowly used all my strength to straighten and return to the original position.

His eyes were fixed on the night sky, seemingly oblivious to any pain.

He just wants to know what happened here... why there are traces of the military.

Moreover, I must leave immediately; I can no longer stay here. I have regained consciousness and need to find Wang Haisheng. The lower half of the Demon-Subduing Skill in his hand is the cure for my illness.

Otherwise, the aftereffects wouldn't just be amnesia; he might die prematurely.

In the latter half of the night, Feng Yuxiu's limbs and joints began to swell. He stood up and frowned. He still couldn't understand why this consciousness only appeared at night.

Could it be a side effect of the Moon Ape Strike Technique? Has it caused problems with the cells in my cerebral cortex and central nervous system?
This bizarre appearance is simply unbelievable.

After a long while, Feng Yuxiu felt he could walk again and slowly headed down the mountain.

Just after Feng Yuxiu left, a person slowly crawled up from the withered grass in the distant mountains.

Dressed in military camouflage, with night vision goggles and a radio, he stared intently at Feng Yuxiu's back.

"Report: An unusual target detected."

-

It was still late at night.

A military region in Hebei Province.

Gao Cheng paced back and forth in the corridor.

Yuan Lang stood silently to the side, arms crossed, leaning against the wall.

"Can you please stop walking around like that?" Yuan Lang finally couldn't take it anymore and shouted.

Gao Cheng took a deep breath, "Smoking isn't allowed here, so this is the only way I can vent..."

“Didn’t we determine it from the beginning? It definitely wasn’t him. There’s not a single trace of training on his body. Xu Sanduo, on the other hand, has battle scars all over his body.”

Gao Cheng stopped. "Those were all guesses between you and me. It's been three whole days. Today all the forensic autopsy results are coming out. What if they are true?"

"Certainly not."

Yuan Lang said this, but his crossed arms betrayed his unease.

Click!

The door to the central laboratory opened, and a forensic doctor with the rank of captain walked out.

Yuan Lang and Gao Cheng quickly stepped forward.

"The results! Tell me the results!" Gao Cheng shouted immediately.

"The body's bone age is about forty years old. According to our tests, whether it's hair, blood, or other genetic tests, they don't match the physical examination results in Xu Sanduo's enlistment file at all."

"My two leaders, this is just an ordinary corpse that has grown to about 90% of its original size."

After the forensic doctor finished speaking, it was obvious that the two leaders staggered back a step.

"Damn it!" Gao Cheng couldn't help but curse, "I knew this kid was a gecko, there was no way he could die here so easily!"

Yuan Lang laughed out loud, "I told you you shouldn't be so anxious about gains and losses. You're always so anxious about gains and losses."

"My lords, I'll be taking my leave now." The forensic doctor nodded and turned to leave.

“Then…” Yuan Lang raised his head and said, “If this isn’t it, where did the real Xu Sanduo go? There are no missing persons in that village.”

Gao Cheng froze, looking at Yuan Lang in disbelief.

Yuan Lang nodded. "Definitely. Since they look so alike, could Xu Sanduo be in Wangdu Village? If there are no missing persons, then why is this dead person still alive? There's only one possibility!"

"Go! Right now!"

"Didn't we have someone watching us when we left?" Yuan Lang shouted.

Gao Cheng strode out, "Could those soldiers even spot Xu Sanduo? He's the top soldier in the army group's competition, a true king of soldiers. He's a weapon of modern warfare; counter-tracking him would be too easy."

"No problem, we've sent top students from the Nanjing Army Academy of the Southeast Theater Command."

"Let's go check quickly. Don't forget, there's no one left in Wangdu Village now. If he's gone, where will we look for him?"

The plane took off at an extremely high speed and headed towards Wangdu Village.

-

creak!

The door to Dezi was pushed open, and Feng Yuxiu had just walked in when he saw Dezi and Xiao Zhuang staring at the front door with shovels in their hands.

"Damn, Brother Shu, are you that brave? Where did you go in the middle of the night?" Dezi walked quickly to the yard, closed the door behind him, and pulled Feng Yuxiu towards the living room.

Only the bright lights in the living room can put their minds at ease.

Especially after they talked about the old corpse in the village at dusk, this fear grew stronger and stronger.

It seemed as if Aunt Mei, with her disheveled hair, could float in from outside at any moment.

Feng Yuxiu stared at the two of them expressionlessly. "Go to sleep."

He has just recovered from the swelling in his limbs and needs sleep and rest.

Leaving him at this time would really cause a muscle strain and leave lasting consequences.

The three of them slept fully clothed on the large heated kang bed in Dezi's house.

Click.

Pull the light cord to turn it off.

At the dark crossroads of Wangdu Village, a voice slowly spoke, "Company Commander, target spotted."

"Geng Jihui, you better keep a close eye on him, this guy is in high demand."

"Yes."
