Chapter 245: Chapter 244: Taking You to Flirt with Girls? (1) Chapter 245: Chapter 244: Taking You to Flirt with Girls? (1) The sunset was sinking in the west, and the mountain was cold and dark; most people had already returned ho full.
After a heavy rain, word spread quickly about people from various safety zones going up the mountain to collect mushrooms. By the next day, those who had missed the first chance were also heading up with large bags.
For a mont, the hillsides everywhere were swarming with busy little bees.
Such a grand scene naturally also alerted the troops and the governnt stationed in each safety zone.
The warriors of the 208th regint, after finishing their drills, grabbed the towels around their necks with both hands and stood in front of the barracks, gazing towards the unseen mountain peaks.
They were envious…
“Tell , we’re all humans, so why can the common folks carry sacks and little shovels up the mountain to pick mushrooms, while we soldiers just pitifully stand here drooling, huh? If it was about picking mushrooms, we wouldn’t be bad at it either, right?”
The warriors of the company had just run ten kiloters and co back, washed their faces, and gone out to catch a cool breeze.
The warrior who had just spoken, nad Wang ng, had dark skin and a robust physique, a true northern man. Just the ntion of mushrooms made his cheeks feel sour.
Another warrior wrung his dripping towel and said with disdain, “They’re just afraid you’d swallow the whole mountain alone, scaring everyone off if they let you go.”
“Zhang Dongke, are you deliberately opposing ?”
“Ha, a defeated foe, worth my opposition?”
“Bullshit, I let you win!”
Zhang Dongke picked his ear, “Co on, say that again, who let whom win?”
The warriors from two squads, seeing their squad leaders about to spar again, joyfully hurried back inside to fetch tea, pour water, and move stools.
Quick, co and look! The first and second squad leaders are about to fight again!
Unfortunately… before the confrontation could start, soone from the regintal headquarters arrived with a ssage.
Everyone watched as the person from the headquarters went into the command post to find the company commander.
Wang ng waved his fist, aning they would compete another ti.
Zhang Dongke sneered slyly, threw the towel over his shoulder, and tilted up his proud little chin.
The glory of victory always belonged to their first squad!
Soone excitedly asked, “Does that an the regint is also letting us go up the mountain?”
“Dream on!” soone doused that idea with a bucket of cold water.
“Squad leader, what do you think it could be?” a young warrior from the first squad crowded around Zhang Dongke, curious.
Zhang Dongke squinted through the window, saw the company commander Ji Dong’s expression, and whispered to his squad mates.
“Judging by the company commander’s look, it’s probably not good news.”
“You think?” the warriors groaned in dismay.
Soon, the person from the headquarters left.
Company Commander Ji Dong spoke with the regintal commander inside for a while, then strode out, spotting the warriors from the first and second squads who were nosing around outside. His face darkened.
“What are you looking at? Go change and assemble!”
At the command, all the warriors snapped to attention, saluted, and then scurried back to the barracks to urgently assemble.
Ji Dong straightened his military appearance and stood in front of the parade ground, waiting for the warriors from the first company to assemble, feeling rather helpless inside.
These past few days, residents of the safety zones had been going up the mountain to collect mushrooms. The higher authorities hadn’t stopped them, and the regint even thought it was a good thing, as it allowed everyone to spontaneously solve so of the food storage issues, ultimately easing the burden on the governnt.
But who would have thought that within just one night, sothing had gone wrong in the safety zones!
No sooner had the mushrooms co back than a large number of poisonings occurred!
Starting from late last night, the hospitals, health stations, and treatnt centers at the base of the mountain had already begun to receive poisoned citizens in a steady stream.
Reports were that several safety zones were affected. Eating mushrooms had led to problems, and yet more people were still going up the mountain—one might think it was a joke!
All the troops were urgently assembled to go up the mountain for a rescue!
