The Age of the Wolf Pack Tyrant
Chapter 48: Alive!
Although Chen Jun and Xing Tian both knew in their hearts that the butcher was helping them by doing this, giving them the most vivid lesson so that they wouldn't die without knowing why.
The butcher truly fulfilled his responsibilities as an instructor impeccably.
Despite feeling grateful, recalling the extreme fear of being on the verge of death, I still couldn't help but want to curse and vent my emotions to feel better.
The butcher was a strange man.
Having experienced the near-pee-wet-from-fear of Chen Jun and Xing Tian, he remained completely unperturbed by their furious curses, all smiles on his face.
"Swearing at me won't hurt me at all. You'd better save your energy and go to sleep. Remember, keep one eye open, or next time I'll definitely slit your throats."
The butcher brandished the knife at his own neck, leaving behind his signature menacing grin before departing.
"That bastard..."
Chen Jun and Xing Tian had no choice but to silently lie back down on the bed, having no other option but to deal with the butcher.
Although neither of them verbally admitted defeat, they had actually taken it to heart and become more vigilant, even keeping their ears on guard while they slept.
The butcher did not launch a second attack that night, and the two slept soundly until dawn.
When they woke up again, it was the next morning. The two were startled awake by the doctor's coming in. Without even looking to see who it was, driven by their instinctive alertness, they both reached under their pillows to retrieve the weapons that were hidden there.
"Hehehe, don't be nervous, be careful not to accidentally discharge the weapon. It's me, I'm here to check your wounds."
The doctor was startled by the two men's exaggerated actions. He was afraid that these two greenhorn recruits might rush up and kill him at the slightest provocation, so he quickly identified himself.
If he were to be killed here by two new recruits, he would truly die with his eyes open in disbelief.
"Excuse me, I thought you were a butcher."
Upon seeing that it was indeed a doctor who had entered, Chen Jun quickly apologized for his overly excited reaction.
For mercenaries on the battlefield, doctors are absolutely a second life. You can offend anyone else, but you absolutely cannot offend a military doctor.
"Why not that bastard? If it were him, I would definitely make a hole in his body."
Xing Tian was disappointed and reluctantly put away his gun.
"I know what the butcher did last night. He just likes to play these kinds of sad games. He doesn't really mean you any harm. You'll get used to it."
The doctor smiled and said some kind words to the butcher, then placed the tray on the table and said, "Today is a good day. I'll check your wounds and then take you to lunch. Take off your coats."
"Today is a good day, what good day?" Chen Jun asked curiously as he took off his clothes.
Xing Tian didn't speak, but his eyes were also filled with curiosity.
"Receiving your salary every time is a joy, and this is your first time, so it's something to remember!"
When the doctor mentioned receiving their salaries, Xing Tian and Chen Jun's eyes lit up immediately. It was $50, a huge sum of money they had never seen before in their lives.
In 1999, wages in China had not risen. Before being kidnapped and forced to become a mercenary, Chen Jun only expected to earn 1000 yuan after graduating from university.
He would be satisfied as long as he earned a thousand each month.
Five hundred thousand US dollars is nearly four million RMB, a huge sum that would take three hundred years to earn. Chen Jun never dared to dream of such a large number.
Now that reality has surpassed my dreams, and I'm about to receive such a huge sum of money, how could I not be excited and thrilled?
Driven by such intense emotions, Chen Jun and Xing Tian urged the doctor to finish examining the wounds. Once they confirmed that there was nothing seriously wrong, they immediately transformed into a whirlwind and ran out.
The wolf pack had already gathered in the canteen, and everyone had gotten their food and were sitting at the tables eating and chatting.
Chen Jun and Xing Tian could only suppress their eagerness and follow suit, getting their food and sitting down at the long dining table. Coincidentally, the butcher was sitting diagonally opposite them.
"You're a disgusting guy."
Xing Tian, remembering how terrified he had been the night before, couldn't contain his anger and cursed at the butcher again.
"Oh, looks like you two little guys also experienced the Butcher's disgusting tricks last night, haha." Di Huo laughed gleefully.
The others obviously knew about the butcher's affair, and they laughed when they saw someone else being pranked.
They make fun of the newcomers.
This is clearly one of their daily leisure activities.
"Has he always been this awful? How can you all tolerate him?" Xing Tian said angrily.
"He only does this to newcomers. It's a perverse tactic, but it saves your lives, so don't complain." The captain ate his mashed potatoes with a spoon, seemingly nonchalant.
"Living in fear 24 hours a day? Not being able to relax even when I'm with you guys? What's the point of living then?" Xing Tian frowned.
Nineteen-year-olds admire freedom and are especially fond of a boy like Xing Tian, who has a strong personality.
"Isn't being alive enough?"
Big Buck stared intently into Xing Tian's eyes and asked in a very serious tone.
"..."
Xing Tian wanted to say something, but then he realized that mercenaries were like war dogs, and they could lose their lives at any time. Living was indeed more important than anything else, so he fell silent.
Giving in now would be a loss of face, so he could only come up with an excuse, saying, "Okay, I reserve my opinion. I hope only the butcher has this kind of twisted sense of humor."
"Don't worry, we're not your instructors," the cowboy answered on everyone's behalf.
The underlying meaning is that the butcher is your instructor, which is why he takes care of you two and tries to improve your abilities; they don't have that much free time.
That's reality.
But it is true.
"Hey, Butcher, if there's a next time, I'd be even more grateful if you could give me a heads-up beforehand." Chen Jun grinned at the Butcher.
Having lived two lives, Chen Jun is naturally more mature in his actions.
They won't be as impulsive and straightforward as Xing Tian.
The butcher didn't answer Chen Jun, but simply raised an eyebrow and a signature ferocious smile appeared on his lips, sending a chill down Chen Jun's spine.
"Is this guy thinking of some bad idea again?" Chen Jun's heart tightened.
"Brothers, quiet down."
At this moment, the captain spoke, and everyone stopped chatting and looked over.
"Your money has been deposited into your account. You can check your account at the bank at any time. If there are any problems, come and find me to resolve them."
After the captain finished speaking, he took out two gold bank cards and tossed them to Chen Jun and Xing Tian respectively, saying, "These are Swiss bank gold cards I opened for you. After deducting the cost of replacing your passports, the rest is in there."
From now on, as long as you complete your tasks, I will deposit your due payment into your accounts.
Chen Jun caught the bank card that was tossed to him, and touched the gleaming gold card, exclaiming, "I never thought that I, a nobody, would actually own a Swiss bank gold card, something I'd only ever heard of in movies."
It feels like a dream, it's so unreal.
