A bald man propped one arm against his last-minute crutch. After catching raindrops with his mouth, he said: “Almost there, my men will arrive after we leave this area. Y’all can follow me at ease, no matter how rich you want to be in the future, you’ll be able to get that rich!”
All five men had the same characteristic: they’re all bald!
The leading man was called ‘Brother Hong,’ he had an interesting identity as he was the anti-drug police’s breakthrough in a major case. On his way to being hospitalized, he successfully ‘escaped,’ and he had succeeded very easily; this made Brother Hong himself slightly surprised.
While the four other bald men had just been released from jail a couple of days ago, to fulfill their dreams of getting rich, they once again met up with the ‘Brother Hong’ that they knew since long ago and were hoping to gain massive riches in the future.
Brother Hong’s leg was shot, the bullet was still stuck in his bone, and they didn’t have any way to extract it, all he could do was tie his wound up tightly, and without doing any basic treatment, they continued on their escape.
After he was done talking, a ruthless gleam appeared beneath his eyes, these people… none of them can be left alive. After they have escorted him to where his brothers were supposed to fetch him, they’ll all be executed.
He was making convincing promises with his mouth, but he was just feeding their illusions in reality.
After resting for less than ten minutes, the party of five people was forced to move again. They needed to move no matter how tired they were; if they don’t, they’ll definitely lose their life!
The nerves and bodies of the five men were wound up extremely tightly. Facing against the heavy rain and the dark rainforest, fear was expanding in their brains like radiation as they continued making way while bearing a huge psychological burden.
Escapees had to move, no matter how frightened they got. Meanwhile, Ye Jian, who was marching through the rain and night, also had to keep moving.
Of the four hours, two hours had passed. If she arrived one hour late at her resting spot, that’d mean she’ll have one hour less of sleep tonight. Only by moving forward would she be able to reach her destination!
The rain started to get heavier again; Ye Jian wiped off the rainwater on the night vision goggles. Moving like a ghost in the woods, she moved past countless huge trees and vaulted over countless bushes.
With only a GPS tracker on her, Ye Jian had entered the rainforest for several days now, and that was how long she hadn’t spoken to another person. She saw either venomous snakes or mountain leeches, and she had to get rained on every day. Ye Jian’s performance was always normal, no abnormality, she calmly analyzed the things she had encountered and the environment she was facing while maintaining a calm heart.
Like right now, normal people would have a natural, instinctual fear towards the darkness. In the face of danger, they will instinctually scream, and when faced with things suddenly appearing, they’ll likely pass out without notice.
The mind will think about dangers that one wouldn’t think about during the day, and they will also bear psychological stress that wouldn’t appear during the day.
Normal people normally wouldn’t try to conquer those fears; it’s very likely for them to choose to avoid it. Most of them would think this: ‘let’s not take the mountain path at night ever again!’
That’s the thought process of a normal human, that’s the thought process that can’t be any more normal than that.
In Ye Jian’s case, in the case of the Special Forces soldiers, they didn’t have any paths of retreat, they could only move forward. They’ll have to forward no matter how afraid they are. Not only that, they’ll also have to conquer their fears towards the dark and not allow fear to override them!
This was Ye Jian’s improvement, improving one steady step after one steady step. There aren’t any shortcuts to take; all she did was conquer each and every obstacle she faced with her own might.
Carving out a different life with her hard work, a Ye Jian like this had used her blood and sweat to set the foundation for her future glory, immovable by winds, uncorroded by rain!
After more than a year’s intensive training, Ye Jian’s mental quality and physical quality had long been incomparable with her peers. Night marches had become an essential part of Ye Jian’s life, staunchly overcoming the obstacles that she faced, calmly solving dangers that she met.
