At midnight, the centurion finally returned in his chariot, with a strange expression on his face, showing relief, anger, and also some joy.

Inside the tent, the centurion sat at the center, holding the report sent by the military doctor. His face was unusually gloomy, and he gritted his teeth.

The fifty-year-old man was skinny and bony, with bloodstains and bruises all over his body. There were more than seventy wounds on him, and some of his ribs were slightly fractured. Due to long-term malnutrition, it was difficult for him to recover.

Judging from her appearance, the woman was between 20 and 25 years old. She was also very thin, with skin and bones showing. There were hundreds of scars of various sizes all over her body, and not a single piece of intact skin.

The poor woman suffered from punches, kicks, burns, knife scratches and other wounds. During the examination, it was found that she would be infertile in the future and had suffered great mental damage, making it difficult for her to return to normal.

Ying Gan fiddled with the report for a long time before putting it down. He looked up at the three main people who had just been called to deal with today's incident. They were Su Ping, Yan Chuan, and Ning Lian, who were nominated by everyone.

Because if all fifty people were to be called in, it would be too much of a hassle, so it would be better to just let the people who are convinced by everyone come to listen.

Ying Qian sat upright and said slowly, "The mine at the border of Lisha Suburb and Layered Rock Abyss has complicated tunnels and is uninhabited. The bandits were hiding there and were just discovered yesterday. Half a battalion of soldiers were sent to encircle and suppress them."

Su Ping, Yan Chuan, and Ning Lian all had different expressions. One was furious in his heart, one showed anger on his face, and one remained calm, but one knew that he had a strong desire to kill.

Old Hu closed his eyes slightly and explained, "The surface of the Layered Rock Abyss is steep, and there are many mining tunnels left by our ancestors underground. After the great disaster many years ago, the Seven Stars ordered the underground entrance of the Layered Rock Abyss to be sealed, making the side that was originally a mining area even more desolate."

Ying Qian paused, and before he finished speaking, he continued, "According to the captain's investigation, the Qianyan Army that entered the mountain to suppress the bandits yesterday was completely buried by the collapsed mountain because of that bunch of bastards who were worse than pigs and dogs. No one survived!

Of course, the evil villains reaped what they sowed and died in the mine. So far, no news of any of them escaping the net has been found, so they should have all been wiped out.

The captain has not given a definite answer to the identities of the two men, so they should stay in our camp for now. We will send them back after we find their relatives.”

After that, everyone's silence added a layer of gloom to the already not-so-relaxed atmosphere. It was extremely gloomy.

Iwakawa asked suspiciously, "If we can't find it, won't it be kept in our camp forever?"

His words were always like this, and Su Ping Ninglian understood it clearly, but it was not the case for the other people in the tent.

Old Hu frowned and glared at the young man who spoke inappropriately, but did not scold him. Firstly, it was his personality, and secondly, although it sounded a bit harsh, it was a very necessary question.

After all, this is the Qianyan military camp. Soldiers come in and out every day. It is murderous and bloody. Especially, there is no woman in the army.

The inconvenience for the other people living here is secondary. The real concern is that one day the solemn atmosphere of this place will make those two people uncomfortable, and the situation will then be made worse.

Ying Qian sighed softly, "We can only make this arrangement temporarily. Notify the brothers tomorrow and ask them to set up two more tents. There must be people waiting outside the tents day and night, otherwise if something happens to the two injured soldiers, we may not be able to rescue them in time.

As for Xiao Su, your team of fifty will be rewarded. First, you will be credited with saving people after the battle. The commander also promised to give Su Ping, who discovered the incident, an additional day off. No approval is required. You can use it at any time and go home to visit your family."

Iwakawa nudged the boy with his elbow and whispered, "Not bad, you can go home whenever you want. Whenever you miss the girl in your heart, you can run back directly!"

Su Ping remained silent, while Ning Lian looked as calm as usual.

The notification ended here, and the three of them opened the tent and went out. They didn't hear the two words between the centurion and his personally appointed deputy.

Lao Hu sighed, "It's true that every camp cannot be without a soldier who is optimistic and optimistic!"

Ying Qian also sighed: "It's a little but it really can't be missing, otherwise life will be too difficult, and even the fighting spirit will be somewhat worn out when killing the enemy."

The three men, unaware of the conversation between the two, continued to walk side by side after leaving the tent.

Iwakawa rested his head on his hands and asked leisurely, "What do you think, how much perseverance did that old man have to take a girl across mountains and rivers for more than a hundred miles?"

The first person to answer this time was not Su Ping but Ning Lian, who usually spoke less. He stretched out his right hand, raised it a little higher, higher than the young man's head, and said lightly: "It's this high."

Yanchuan looked incredulous, "Ning actually spoke first, my heaven and earth, my... please continue."

He lowered his hands and put on a look of listening attentively, perhaps thanks to the hand on his head changing from a palm to a fist, or perhaps it was because of the other person's slightly lowered eyebrows.

Regardless of the young man's rogue behavior, Ning Lian said slowly: "When seeking survival, people's willpower is sometimes beyond imagination. It is possible to drag a seriously injured body across mountains and rivers just to return to a certain place.

But when you find that the goal has been achieved, the concentrated will will collapse instantly, and the physical fatigue during this period will be returned to you instantly, so I say that their perseverance is higher than Iwakawa's ability to speak!"

Iwakawa's face fell and he looked unhappy.

Su Ping watched all this with a "cold eye" because he knew this man's temper very well and did not need his comfort at all. He could justify himself and not be discouraged.

As expected, Yanchuan smiled again and said softly, "Ning, are you saying that my other abilities are amazing? Hehe, there's actually no need to beat around the bush, just come straight to the point, I can take it!"

"It is true." Su Ping muttered to himself, his eyes half closed.

Ning Lian said nothing. He grabbed the back of Yanchuan's clothes, then blocked his mouth with his clothes and dragged him away. His moves were as swift as lightning and his dragging movements were even more agile.

Su Ping, who was standing there, had no time to react. He watched the man being dragged far away. He could only follow slowly, praying that the latter would not be beaten too badly. After all, he would still need him for the task on duty later.

That night, three people gathered in a corner of the camp, fighting heartily, with every punch and kick, like a master.

……

After a few days, Su Ping and his companions were finally able to go out of the camp to patrol and hunt monsters. They were ready to go, and they ran out as soon as it was time to leave the camp.

The movements were swift and the expressions were unyielding, and from a distance it looked like a group of young men who had conspired together, and then the conspiracy surfaced and was about to be put into action.

Killing monsters and beheading monsters is a great thing that does not require any conspiracy. They like to do this kind of thing the most because it can earn military merits, increase military pay, and protect their country.

Fifty people, with scouts exploring in front, the soldiers held tough spears with cold and shining tips, and they stood straight with neat steps.

Half a day later, someone pulled the bag of spoils and laughed, "We destroyed five camps in one morning. Only our leader can do this."

Someone nearby echoed, "That's not true. Our leader is the most powerful fighter in our camp. He's nicknamed 'Demon Slayer'!"

"That shouldn't be the case. The boss is a very gentle person. Why did he give him such a nickname?" the young soldier asked in confusion.

In his eyes, Su Ping, who was younger than him, was impeccable in his speech, manners, rules of conduct, and principles of being a person. How could he be given such a nickname?

"You just joined the team not long ago, so you must have never seen your previous bravery, right?" The burly man looked around and whispered.

Seeing him like this, the young man also asked in a low voice: "Tell me in detail?"

The burly man suddenly became calm and composed, recounting the glorious deeds of that young man, such as blowing up a hillbilly's head with one shot, killing a hillbilly thug with two shots, fighting a rock dragon lizard single-handedly, etc. He spoke so eloquently, as if the young man was a god from heaven.

"The boss is actually so strong?" The young man couldn't help but stare in amazement, but he was even more puzzled, "But why is the boss attacking with us now, instead of going in alone to kill the monsters?"

The burly man sighed and explained slowly: "That's because, at that time..."

In his explanation, the three deceased members of the Qianyan Army became a knot in Su Ping's heart, so from then on, he no longer fought Chengfeng alone, but joined hands with the team to kill monsters together.

The young man felt something was strange when he heard this, but he couldn't explain what was strange. He couldn't help but admire the figure at the front of the team. He felt that the figure was much taller and as majestic as a mountain, which could provide shelter from wind and rain.

At the front of the team, Su Ping, Yanchuan, and Ning Lian, who was dragged along by force, were running side by side, walking like a dragon and a tiger, with great vigor and vitality.

"Why don't the scouts go explore the way?" Su Ping turned his head and looked at the young man beside him and asked.

Yanchuan, however, looked calm and waved his hand, saying, "We have explored the first two miles. There is no newly built monster camp at all. We haven't even seen any monsters. If we want to explore further, can't we wait until everyone moves ahead before I take action?"

Su Ping closed his eyes slightly. "I only looked at the front, what about the sides?"

"Boss, I feel like you've become a bad person over the past few days. You wouldn't have asked me like this before. Did someone teach you something you shouldn't have learned? Tell me the answer quickly!" Iwakawa grinned.

Su Ping said slowly: "If you are annoyed, there will be others to deal with it. How can I only be annoyed by you but not annoy you? Just bear it."

"It's changed. The Su Ping who was fresh and unworldly and never got entangled in words with others will never come back!" Iwakawa shook his head repeatedly, his expression seemed extremely sad, as if it was a separation forever.
