Chapter 723 The game of life and death has begun
The drizzle was like silk, lightly falling from the sky, as if a layer of gauze covered the earth.
In the mountains, there is an inconspicuous brick house.
The furnishings in the house are very simple, even shabby.
At the desk, a man in his forties wearing glasses was reading a book.
From time to time, he would pick up the enamel teacup and take a sip of hot tea.
At this moment, there was a sudden sound of footsteps outside, followed by a figure wearing a raincoat, walking into the house through the mud.
"Venomous snake, you said you live somewhere else but you have to hide in the mountains where even cars can't drive in."
Lao Hui took off his raincoat and shook it at the door, his face full of complaints.
The venomous snake acted as if he hadn't heard anything, and didn't even raise his eyelids: "There are slippers in the cabinet, don't dirty my floor."
Lao Hui glanced at the brick floor in the room and rolled his eyes.
This isn't a tiled wooden floor, why do you have to keep it so clean?
But he just complained in his heart, and still honestly threw his muddy shoes outside and changed into a pair of clean slippers.
"Didn't I tell you not to come to me if there's nothing wrong?" Viper said in a flat tone.
"This time, the problem is more serious." Lao Hui said seriously after sitting down.
"How serious is it?"
"Black Sheep is back, and has met Qin Feng."
"..."
Viper didn't react much, he just closed the book.
Only then did Lao Hui notice that the name of the book was "The Faraway Savior".
"Why aren't you surprised at all?"
"Why should I be surprised?"
"Did you know this day would come?"
Faced with Lao Hui's doubts, Viper did not give a direct explanation, but said lightly.
"They will meet eventually, just a little earlier than I expected."
"I just have one question."
Old Hui frowned, his tone turning cold. "When Qin Feng graduated, you gave him the black tungsten triangular spike, the symbol of the farm key, as a graduation gift. Did you anticipate this day would come?"
"Yes."
Viper's answer was straightforward.
Lao Hei's face darkened and he clenched his fists unconsciously.
He didn't say anything, and the poisonous snake didn't say anything either. Only outside, rain kept sliding down from the eaves and falling into several plastic basins on the ground that collected rainwater, making a dripping sound.
"So, Qin Feng is just a chess piece on your chessboard, right?"
"Yes and no."
"You're using him!"
Lao Hui stood up, a little excited: "You want to use him to lure out the black sheep, you are pushing him into the fire pit!"
"How old is he? He's only in his twenties. Why did you bring him in?"
"So many people died in the grudges of the previous generation, and you still can't let it go?"
"I always thought you really wanted to train him and wanted Qin Feng to be your successor, so you gave him the key to the farm..."
"This is a test for him." Viper said in a cold tone.
Lao Hui was furious. "There are many ways to test him, but you chose the most extreme one. He's still in the dark and doesn't know what he's going to go through next."
"He and his soldiers might die in this crisis. Is this what you want to see?"
Viper looked at him. "I don't have a choice."
Lao Hui angrily asked, "You have no choice, so you put your own shackles on Qin Feng, wanting him to take your place and let him fight those guys to the death?"
"Mu Feiyang, I really didn't expect you to be so cruel!"
"Qin Feng has parents, family, and friends. Putting him against those guys before he's truly grown up is pushing him into a dead end!"
The venomous snake suddenly laughed: "Who doesn't have parents, family, and friends? I once had them too."
"Qin Feng chose this path himself. I didn't force him to do it."
"There were so many masks to choose from, but he chose Aries. From that day on, he was destined to be a part of the game."
"Also, Lao Hui, there's one thing you might not know. Qin Feng is not a chess piece, and his personality doesn't make him a chess piece."
He stood up and looked at the mountain scenery in the distance shrouded in rain. Memories appeared in his eyes, and he seemed to be recalling many people.
Lao Hui looked at his lonely back, and his anger faded a lot, but he was still indignant.
"I still think this will hurt Qin Feng. Although he is quite good, he is still too weak compared to his opponent."
"He and his soldiers were not at the level to be able to compete with those people."
"People always grow up in adversity." Viper said meaningfully: "Since the other party has come to our door, it means the game has begun."
"Unless you find me, return the gift to me, and withdraw from the farm."
"Otherwise, he and they will fight to the death."
……
Boom!
A loud thunder crackled across the sky and fell in the air.
Dark clouds soon covered the sea, and raindrops as big as beans fell quickly.
Qin Feng and his soldiers were conducting military training at sea on a small navy ship.
However, the sudden bad weather did not interrupt their training progress, but instead brought new and more difficult challenges to the soldiers.
Qin Feng stood in the cockpit, watching the crackling rain falling outside, his eyes blank, not knowing what he was thinking.
"Qin Feng."
Qin Feng turned around and found Jiang Shan right next to him.
"what happened?"
"Nothing, just curious, is there something on your mind?"
"Why do you ask?" Qin Feng asked puzzledly.
"Ever since you came back from the security department that day, you've seemed dazed and distracted. Have you encountered any difficulties?"
Qin Feng smiled and shook his head, explaining that he was just thinking about how to improve the soldiers' training results.
In addition, they were wondering who would brazenly come to their territory to launch a sneak attack.
When this matter was mentioned, Jiang Shan frowned and seemed to have a headache.
So many days have passed, and the security department's investigation has made no progress, and the matter has become a mystery.
No one knows who fired the gun that day and what his purpose was.
Fortunately, Qingtian is no longer in danger of death and is currently recovering in the hospital.
But this incident also serves as a wake-up call for everyone: don’t think you are safe in your own territory.
The enemy is omnipresent and can sneak out from anywhere at any time to launch a sneak attack.
Therefore, we must be prepared for danger in times of peace and be ready for battle at all times.
While Qin Feng and Jiang Shanjian were talking, the storm outside became more and more severe, so that the training had to be interrupted.
In this kind of bad weather, the waves can reach five or six meters high in the worst case scenario. They have to drive the boat away quickly, otherwise it will be very troublesome.
Fortunately, there is a small island near the training area, which can temporarily provide them with shelter from the wind and rain.
But just as the ship was heading towards the target island, the shadow of a suspicious ship suddenly appeared on the rough sea...
