Novel Full Chapter 42
Chapter 42 -Different Opinions
“Inever dreamed of becoming a soldier because I was afraid of death. But now, Ihave deep respect to soldiers! ” – Mu Yucheng’s blog.
Mu Yuchengis an IT programmer who works in Yangcheng. He is usually very busy with hisdaily work. Although he is well paid, he has lost his personal life.
Therefore, duringhis free time, he likes to watch novels, read online novels, and through people’swriting, finish his own fantasy of life.
Today, inthe Editor’s Recommendation, he saw a military novel called “Soldier Assault.”
The name wasplain and unremarkable, but it was recommended by one of his favorite editors,Qiang Zi, so Mu Yucheng was curious and clicked it.
Mu Yuchenghabitually read the introduction and comments first.
But he wasstartled by the two extremely different opinions in the comments.
“It’sugly! After reading two chapters, I decisively dropped it!”
“Highlytoxic, be careful!”
“Thankyou for testing the poison upstairs. Fortunately, I didn’t read it.”
“Norebirth, no cheat ability, tell me how does the protagonist got around?”
“Is theprotagonist a good-for-nothing? He doesn’t dare to fight his fate. He has beenscolded by his father for being a coward. If it were me, I would not be able tobear it!”
“Idon’t understand. Who can tell me how the plot of the first chapter suddenlyjumped back in the beginning in the second chapter? It’s a mess. I think Iwrite better than the author.”
“Upstairs,that’s a flashback. Don’t shoot off your mouth if you don’t understand!”
“Writingan online novel and also make a flashback? The author has lost his mind.”
“Hey,who are you all to deceive me? The novel is so good that I almost cried readingit.”
“I agreewith upstairs. You city-born children do not know the suffering of thecountryside. I was born in the countryside, and I feel that the author wroteall my stories. I was almost sent to the barracks by my father.”
“By theway, don’t you think it’s funny that Xu Sanduo surrendered to the tank at theend of Chapter Two?”
“+1, Ialmost laughed out loud!”
“Is itreally good for you to laugh so happily? Xu Sanduo was seen by the leaders andleft a bad impression. I am afraid that his life will be difficult in the daysto come!”
It can besaid that the comments in the comment area are mixed. The people who like itare full of praise, but the people who don’t like it also have a clear-cutattitude, which makes Mu Yucheng somewhat puzzled.
But it alsoaroused his curiosity, and Mu Yucheng decided to buy the current chapters toread.
As soon ashe opened it, the prologue chapter gave him a different feeling!
How to putit?
Very literaryman! But it is not the kind of false words, the author’s language is verysimple, but the ants are described in detail, and as a reader, Mu Yucheng canclearly understand that this ant, in fact, is only a military metaphor!
“Soldierants don’t cry…” Mu Yucheng carefully reflected on this sentence, and felthis heart suffocated.
The firstchapter is about Xu Sanduo and his teammates performing tasks. There areseveral names that appeared here, Cheng Cai, Yuan Lang, and Wu Zhe. Eachperson’s personality is different.
What makesMu Yucheng remember more deeply is Xu Sanduo’s foolishness, as well as the coldnessof Cheng Cai. Cheng Cai is a sniper, so it doesn’t matter if he’s cold. Even MuYucheng also feel that Xu Sanduo and Cheng Cai’s personality are to integrate!
However,during the retreat, Xu Sandu was ordered to cover, and the performance of ChengCai made Mu Yucheng’s heart touched.
“ChengCai: Xu Sanduo, I’m waiting for you.”
Xu Sanduoturned his head from a shot he had just completed: “Ah?”
Cheng Caiseemed to want to hit him, but he made a sign towards him under the sound ofgunfire, and then followed behind Yuan Lang and Wu Zhe, who had withdrawn from thehidden position.
Xu Sanduosmiled when he saw that. He understood the meaning of the sign, and then hebegan to deal with the endless enemy by himself.
Mu Yuchengfelt a bit bitter in his heart. He felt the friendship and tacit understandingbetween Cheng Cai and Xu Sanduo when they interact with each other. But he alsovaguely felt that Xu Sanduo, who was left behind for covering the rear, wouldbe in an unfortunate situation!
Sure enough,as he expected, Xu Sanduo failed to climb the broken bridge bracket and fellheavily from the high air into the ruins of the factory…
Mu Yucheng’smind crazily shock. While feeling sorry for Xu Sanduo, he suddenly felt thatsomething was not right.
D*mn, did theprotagonist died in the first chapter?
He read on,only to understand why someone in the previous comments had mentionedflashbacks. When the protagonist’s consciousness was blurred, he seemed to see hisfather. Then, the story jumped back to the beginning, when Xu Sanduo was born.
Wait aminute!
Mu Yucheng wasdepressed again.
Did theprotagonist die or not? Then, how does their combat mission look like a drill?
And thenwithout a clear explanation, it just jumped back to the beginning?
Mu Yucheng feltlike there’s a hundred claws scratching his heart. He feels very uncomfortable.
“Ah!”He couldn’t help shouting, which made the people in the subway stared at him.Only then did Mu Yucheng realized that he was wrong and smiled awkwardly.
The storywas wonderful, and although he was upset, he couldn’t help reading it.
But then thefollowing scene changed. It was no longer a tense battlefield, but to thebackward, poor countryside. Not everyone likes the simple interaction offarmers and the trivial matters of their family. No wonder some readers wereimpatient to drop the novel after reading that part.
But MuYucheng is not so superficial, because of his fondness for the author’s writing,Mu Yucheng still has the patient to read on.
However, itis not as obscure as one might think.
Father Xu hadthree boys, the eldest is named Yile, the second is named Erhe, and third wasXu Sanduo!
By the way,the child of the village head’s family is Cheng Cai. It turns out that ChengCai is the neighbor of Xu Sanduo!
It’s justthat their family circumstances were very different!
Cheng Caiwas born into a wealthy family, and Xu Sanduo was born in a poor family. He wasthe third child, an extra mouth to feed, and a heavy load to Father Xu’sshoulder.
Because ofhis wife’s early death, Father Xu couldn’t afford to create conditions for histhree children. He could only hope to send his children to serve as soldiers inthe army and let the state help feed them with food rations. But whether it wasYile, or Erhe, they didn’t have any prospect, making Xu father disappointed.
In fact, theauthor’s writing is still very witty, but this kind of narrative describes theirresistible reality, but even more heavy.
Mu Yuchengwanted to laugh several times, but he couldn’t laugh. Several times, he feltdesperate, but was diluted by some interesting moments.
How canthere be such a brother?
Asking his youngerbrother to buy him a yellow book… (TN: Adult magazine)
But Yile’ssentence “I am more than 30 years old, why should I feelembarrassed”, made Mu Yucheng feel a little sad. Yes, more than 30 yearsold, and still not yet married, making people laugh! 𝙚𝙙𝙣𝒐𝙫𝙚𝙡.𝙤𝙧𝒈
Yile is toopoor to get married, while Mu Yucheng is busy…
This chapteris very long, and unlike other online novels, Mu Yucheng read it very carefullyand obsessively, almost missing his subway stop.
It’s time tostart work!
Mu Yucheng wasreluctant to put down his mobile phone, but before putting it down, he couldn’thelp but pick it up.
“So hype.I was moved to tears. You sir deserved this reward! Mu Yuchen rewarded “SoldierAssault” with 10,000 reading coins.”
Not much,only 1,000 yuan, which is only a drop in the bucket for Mu Yucheng’s income,but to appreciate his works, Mu Yucheng was sincerely willing to!
“Don’tbe a eunuch. I still need to know if Xu Sanduo has fallen to his death!”Mu Yucheng smiled and added a sentence. (TN: No idea what “Don’t be a eunuchmeans”.)
