Chapter 145 A Fond of Teaching
Xu Si remained lying on the car roof, his starry eyes reflecting the night sky, silent for a moment.
Others were also waiting for Xu Si's answer, or perhaps they wanted to know the answer themselves.
"I don't know," Xu Si finally said, his voice soft yet clear.
"Maybe it's just because they want to turn back."
Just as Xu Si didn't know why Ta Shan was willing to sacrifice himself.
The end times are supposed to be selfish.
But there are always some people who seem out of place.
Jiang Li paused for a moment, then didn't press the matter further.
Perhaps she can find the answer herself.
The campsite was so quiet that only the sound of the wind and the crackling of the campfire could be heard.
Jiang Li stood by the car for a while, seemingly recalling Xu Si's words, the night breeze ruffling her hair.
She didn't say anything more, just nodded slightly, and turned back to the bus.
Jiao Jiao watched Jiang Li's retreating figure and muttered to Su Su, "Why did she ask that?"
Su Su ruffled her hair: "Go to sleep."
As night deepened, only dark red embers remained of the campfire.
Apart from Shao Bing, who was on night watch, the camp was completely asleep.
After a good night's sleep.
Xu Si was awakened by the sound of people doing their morning exercises in unison.
Although their voices weren't loud, they were incredibly clear to Xu Si's keen senses.
Apart from a few ordinary people making breakfast, everyone else in the camp seemed to be practicing boxing under Shao Bing's guidance. Xu Si even spotted Fu Xiaojian and Xiao Luo there, and even Yao Yao was imitating them quite well.
Could this be what Fu Xiaojian and Shao Bing discussed last night?
Xu Si sat up from the roof of the car and looked at the people practicing boxing in the camp, and was momentarily taken aback.
If you didn't know better, you'd think this was a park for morning exercise!
The group was practicing the military boxing that Shao Bing had taught Su Su. It was probably their first time practicing, so their movements weren't very synchronized, but everyone, regardless of age or gender, was incredibly serious.
Even Yao Yao, with a serious expression, imitated it perfectly.
"Brother Dao! You're awake?" Jiao Jiao, who only had a three-minute attention span, was the first to notice Xu Si. She immediately slipped out of the boxing team, went to the Conqueror's side, and looked up at him with her little face.
"Come down and eat! We have stewed potatoes and meat today... well, there's not much meat." She wrinkled her nose and added.
"What are you doing?" Xu Si asked.
"Practice your boxing!" Jiao Jiao looked at Xu Si as if he were an idiot.
Is this what I'm asking?
Xu Si couldn't help but roll his eyes.
"I discussed it with Shao Bing yesterday, and we'd like to organize some exercise when we have time. Everyone's been cooped up in the car all day, their bones are practically rusting!"
Fu Xiaojian had a background in military boxing, and after a few rounds, a light sweat had appeared on his forehead.
Although he knew this wouldn't do much for the awakening sequence, he had already shouted the slogan "Never give up, never surrender" yesterday, so he was determined to work hard towards this goal.
Furthermore, doing so not only strengthens everyone's physique but also enhances their spirit and energy.
Although it may be a futile effort, ordinary people still enjoy doing it.
They do not pray for good fortune.
However, if someone doesn't work hard, when others want to lend a helping hand, they won't be able to find their hand.
They want to be Wang Hu, not Yan Feifei.
Xu Si even spotted Jiang Li at the back of the line, but Jiang Li simply nodded to him in greeting before diligently practicing her boxing.
Fortunately, with the presence of soldiers Shao Bing and Li Miao, the group's training went quite well.
This made Xu Si somewhat tempted.
His fighting ability is basically based on his past experience fighting street thugs, or he relies entirely on his instinctive reactions.
It lacks both method and skill, and is even far inferior to Su Su!
Otherwise, he wouldn't have left the Sword of Punishment gathering dust.
If he knew a set of Dugu Nine Swords, Six Meridian Divine Sword, Evil-Repelling Sword... ah, forget about Evil-Repelling Sword.
Once he knows the basic combos, his battles will be much easier, and he won't have to shoot the [Sword of Punishment] every time.
Xu Si immediately became interested, and lightly jumped off the roof of the car. His feet made a soft "rustling" sound as they stepped on the rough sand and gravel of the Gobi Desert.
The morning light gilded his dark red "Conqueror" with a layer of gold, and the waxy luster flowing on the vehicle appeared restrained yet dangerous under the blood-red sun.
Her temperament is exactly the same as Xu Si's now.
He leaned against the car door, watching the people practicing diligently in the open space in the center of the camp.
Shao Bing stood at the very front, his movements precise and powerful, each move displaying the efficiency of a soldier.
Li Miao patiently and meticulously corrected the postures of several ordinary people.
The happiest person was undoubtedly Shao Bing, whose militia unit needed to make good use of the "training" characteristic if it wanted to make progress.
He has a bit of a tendency to be a know-it-all.
In his previous team, he recruited a few people for training, but then he was ostracized by the other extraordinary players in the team.
That's why he didn't do that in the salary train team.
He was just an outsider.
He neither gained exceptional recognition from the racing team nor established any authority among ordinary people.
Moreover, he was afraid of the same thing happening to the previous team, which is why he kept quiet all this time.
They only showed limited goodwill towards Su Su and Ta Shan.
At the same time, it is also because teaching extraordinary individuals is more helpful to his progress.
It wasn't until yesterday that his performance was recognized by the team, and he was finally able to establish himself within the team.
After Fu Xiaojian established the third ironclad rule, he approached him, and the two hit it off immediately.
Xu Si did not rush up to disturb them, but quietly watched as everyone's boxing skills became more and more impressive.
He saw Su Su practicing boxing every day.
However, there is a big difference between practicing boxing alone and practicing with dozens of people.
If he had learned these things earlier, his time as a young punk would have been the happiest.
Shao Bing quickly noticed Xu Si's gaze.
He stopped what he was doing, handed the team over to Li Miao, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and walked towards Xu Si.
"Brother Xu, are you interested?" Shao Bing asked, his voice carrying the steady and dignified tone characteristic of soldiers.
"Fist fighting isn't for me. Do you know swordsmanship?" Xu Si nodded, not denying it.
"I didn't used to!" Shao Bing's eyes lit up slightly.
"But I have a 'mastery of all weapons' trait. As long as I have a sword, I can master it. Although I can't teach you anything too advanced, I'll definitely be able to teach you the most basic sword moves!" Shao Bing continued.
"Give it a try," Xu Si said succinctly.
He immediately took out the Sword of Punishment; it's really not easy to find a sword in this godforsaken place.
Without saying a word, Shao Bing reached out and took it.
The moment the sword was in his hand, Shao Bing's eyes changed.
His broad, calloused hands gripped the dark red hilt of the sword firmly, and a strange sense of harmony arose within him.
It was as if every line and every bit of weight of the sword was transmitted to his nerve endings through the hilt, and instantly analyzed, disassembled, and reassembled by the characteristic called "Mastery of All Weapons".
He slightly raised his arm, and the sword hung down naturally, without any fancy starting posture.
But in that seemingly casual movement of pulling and lifting, a very subtle sound, like the tearing of cloth, swept through the air.
