Chapter 2 Chapter One

Dashes of sunlight pushed away the milk-like thick mist and shot in slantingly, and music echoed in the forest: the green and fresh spring leaves are loud and sharp, and the red leaves as bright as blood are broad and vigorous. The translucent yellow leaves as thin as gold leaf are the long and deep bass, the long and short branches are the spectral lines, fluttering up and down with the mountain wind, and the notes in the morning are like crystal dewdrops, fluttering Roll down. Everything in the forest is bright and bright on an April morning.The mist is pure and white; the air is as fresh as it has been filtered; the leaves of the grass and trees have just been bathed in the morning mist, and each piece is moist and lovely as if they were born again; Small weed flowers, jubilantly protruding tall and thin flower stems from the fallen leaves exuding the deep and intoxicating aroma of pine needles, shyly unfolded against the surrounding dark green background, holding a huge seed dangling between the stamens. The dewdrops added a warm and dreamlike atmosphere to this place for a while.

not only that.A bunch of bright red sunlight shines through the dense branches and leaves, and shines on the center of this forest glade like a stage follow-up light, making every plant and tree here suddenly shrouded in a deep, metaphysical spirituality and spirituality. Excitement, an anxious anticipation and longing for something beautiful and joyful. "Giggle——" First, a series of crisp laughter sounded in the forest far away, like mountain spring water splashing down between empty mountain streams, the lingering sound lingering, followed by a series of brisk, more and more approaching footsteps.In a blink of an eye, a young woman of twenty-seven or eighty-year-old ran into the open space with an air gun in her hand. Leng Ding stopped suddenly, turned her head and peeped vigilantly in the direction she came from.

This is a woman who exudes so much youth from head to toe, and is also filled with fresh air in the forest.She is only about 1.60 meters tall, and she wears a pair of standard military trousers. Her upper body is a casual shirt with black dots on a yellow background and a yellow background with the hem tucked into the trousers. Barely exposed, the concave and convex curves of the chest area are still vaguely revealed.A narrow military belt pinned out her girl-like slender waist, and tightly bulged out the mature and full chest that only young women have.She had clearly been running in the forest for a long time, her pair of small Jiefang shoes were covered with dew and green leaves of grass, and there were little beads of sweat on her forehead.At this moment, she just turned her head and listened to the distance, and she didn't notice at all that just after she appeared here, the sunlight like a spotlight hit her directly.In an instant, her life seemed to be illuminated by a ray of light from heaven, and it became brilliant.

When she was hesitating in this beam of sunlight, not sure whether to run away or hide on the spot, let us observe her: If only from the appearance, this woman who is clearly in excitement and agitation It is very difficult to occupy a place among the outstanding beauties in the world.Yes, she has a healthy, fair face with two sunflower-like blush on the cheekbones stained by sweat, but unfortunately it is a little longer, and there are a few inconspicuous yellow-brown spots scattered on both sides of the nose. freckles; her eyes were not big at all, but now they are narrowed in the sun, and they look smaller now; the thin willow-leaf eyebrows above the eyes are vividly drawn, but the small, angular nose is under the The lips are too red and too wide, giving people a raised and swollen feeling-only a girl who doesn't know how to make up can make herself like this.On the contrary, the black hair that has not been permed and tied crookedly in short thick braids at the back of the head jumps back and forth quickly with the flexible movements of the limbs and neck, which is particularly lively and cheerful.

But all this is not the most important and not the most striking thing about her.At such a moment, if you see her at a glance, you will first notice something else: her expression, eyes, and a secret of life revealed unreservedly.The expression on her face is pure and joyful, reflecting her inner landscape that has not been too damaged by life experience, her tendency to simplify in thinking and emotional life, her understanding of everything in the world like a mirror. There is a general goodwill and trust, and at the same time, it is as clear as white clouds floating in the clear sky that she shows her strong and uncontrollable longing for some kind of joy that is close at hand, which makes her face instinctively A glow of excitement, brightness, and happiness overflowed from the inside; her eyes matched the expression of her face, they were bright and bold, alert and expectant, blazing like fire. The passion of life flashes with the same enthusiasm a kind of unscrupulousness and madness similar to that of an ignorant urchin; the secret of her life is through every deft twist and jump of her body, her laughter just now and her excited gasp at the moment, Undisguised, the secret is passion.Thus, the most basic characteristics of this life we ​​just met—innocence, vigor, enthusiasm, extraordinary comprehension and longing not for a fixed thing but only for the beautiful attributes of things themselves—are also exposed together, They miraculously kept the pure aura of a young girl in cardamom years in this 30-year-old woman. ——Enthusiasm is the flower of a woman's life. A woman who is full of enthusiasm will be called cute even if she is not beautiful. The young woman who appears in front of us is not only passionate, but also has obvious girlish feelings. Her cuteness is even beautiful It is beyond doubt.

And that's not all.If she is still under the bright red sun at this time, we still have an oil painting of mountains and forests and the goddess of youth with standard classical aesthetics.The calmer and louder the green in the depths of the oil painting, the brighter and more beautiful the life of the goddess. ——But she had already heard something from a distance, her dexterous body trembled with excitement, and she hurriedly dodged behind a thick masson pine and disappeared. Accompanied by the sound of grass being trampled down by "Hula La", a man with an air gun walked into the open space, stopped at the place where the woman had stood in confusion, looked back and forth, and lowered his voice in excitement and dissatisfaction. , calling out the young woman's name:

"Zhang Li - Zhang Li -" The sun that had been shining on the young woman just now fell on the man again.There was another painting on the clearing in the forest, an oil painting of the mountains and the God of War.The man has only appeared in the center of the painting, and the mood here has changed significantly: a few minutes ago it was completely enthusiastic, light, and dreamy, but now it has melted into an inharmonious hardness, Heavy and grim.This is a field officer who is qualified to be the perfect image of the new generation of soldiers no matter what angle he looks at. He is 34 or 5 years old, 1.84 meters tall, with a strong physique, slender and powerful limbs, and a fat man. A round, powerful neck, a huge, recently shaved soldier-shaped bald head, a bronze-colored square face with scars caused by ultraviolet rays from long-term field life, and two falcon-like eyes hidden under the hard browbones. The sharp eyes give the overall impression of being powerful and majestic.His attire is also different from that of ordinary officers: his upper body is wearing a jacket-style camouflage uniform that does not meet the requirements of the regulations, but it fits very well. There are clusters of chest hair protruding from the lapel of the neck, and his lower body is a pair of general's cavalry breeches with a white cloth surface. , the old style makes people involuntarily guess that the owner may have a special family background; under his feet are a pair of authentic infantry stab-resistant shoes, which makes people unable to ignore the pride he may have as an infantry officer His actual combat experience and experience; on his waist is a belt that is often worn by Western officers in foreign movies, surrounded by shiny pistol bullets, a small and exquisite pistol inserted in a soft suede holster-this suit looks The effect of the attire that seems to be put together is wonderful. They not only made his mighty appearance, but also endowed him with another kind of suaveness that seemed not to be deliberately pursued.Coupled with the shining of the beam of sunshine from the sky, the image of this field officer is almost flawless.

Like many army commanders who are very concerned about their image, even though he is alone in the hidden forest at this moment, his body is still unconsciously and exaggeratedly upright, maintaining a posture that is watched by the respectful eyes of countless soldiers.But obviously because of that woman just now, his originally very serious face has been dyed red by the excitement gradually rising in his body, his pair of eagle-watching eyes are bright and lively, but there is still a bit of reserve between his brows.Reservedness is also part of his character, although at this time it does not surpass or overwhelm the excitement and impulse of the heart.So at this moment, he inadvertently exposed the attitude of frivolity, fragility and playing with life that was hidden deep in his life and was incompatible with the solemn, mighty and mature image he insisted on pursuing.

The young woman only allowed him to be mesmerized by the beam of sunlight for half a minute before she rushed over from behind and wrapped her arms around his neck. "Zhang Li, it's you!" The man dropped the air gun in his hand, smiled excitedly, and couldn't help pulling the young woman from behind to her chest with his thick arms, and his face immediately glowed. "Look at you, running around!" he said to her in loving, reproachful tones, but his ardent eyes conveyed something else to her. "You just ran deep into the woods this morning, what did you hit?"

"I... I hit a regiment leader!" the woman said, her eyes suddenly brightened, she looked up at her idol from bottom to top, her face was pale, and her teeth were chattering. "Zhang Li, maybe I will really fall in love with you!" The man hugged the woman's waist tightly, looked into her eyes—the depths of her eyes, and sighed. ... The ray of sunlight like a follower spotlight now casts obliquely on these two lives.It was also a painting, a painting of Mars and Youth passionately and strangely in love.One of them represents death and the other represents life, but in the dark green forest full of vitality, accompanied by the fragrance of pine needles and wild flowers, and illuminated by the bright light of the sky, this painting still has a sense of shock. Vigorously magnificent.
