Chapter 76 The Dark Tide Surges Violently
Chapter 76 The Dark Tide Surges Violently
The break time is over.
A sharp whistle pierced the air.
"Everyone assemble!"
The instructor in charge of shooting training gathered everyone in front of the firing line and began to explain the basic structure, shooting principles, and safety procedures of the Type 56 semi-automatic rifle.
As Lin Shuyao listened to the instructor lecturing, she couldn't help but glance at Cheng Zheng beside her.
With instructors providing training this time, Cheng Zheng, as the factory representative, is so busy, why did he also come to the firing range?
Just as I was wondering what was going on, I heard the instructor in front say, "Next, please let our factory representative, Comrade Cheng Zheng, give a shooting demonstration for everyone."
All eyes immediately turned to Cheng Zheng.
Cheng Zheng remained calm and composed as he walked to the firing position. He picked up the rifle standing on the ground with one hand, loaded it, and took aim. His movements were as swift and precise as if they were pre-programmed, without the slightest deviation.
The sun was high in the sky, and its rays shone directly on his tall and straight figure.
He stood sideways, gun in hand, his forearm with smooth, powerful lines beneath his rolled-up sleeves, his hand gripping the gun as steady as a rock.
When he lowered his eyes to aim, the lines of his profile became cold and hard. That focused energy made him and the cold gun in his hand strangely become one, exuding an extremely oppressive sharpness.
"Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!"
Five shots rang out crisply and cleanly, all hitting the red dot in the center of the bullseye!
After a brief silence, a gasp of amazement erupted from the surrounding crowd.
"My God, all ten rings!"
"That representative is amazing!"
"Even as a guy, I thought that pose was cool, it was so captivating..."
Zhao Tiemei was also engrossed in watching. After regaining her composure, she puffed out her chest and said with a hint of pride, "This is nothing! The representative hasn't even shown half of his skill. My cousin used to be in the same unit as him. Back then, the representative won first place several times in the all-army skills competition. Night shooting, moving target shooting, and all kinds of complex and demanding shooting competitions were no problem for him!"
Zhao Tiemei admires and idolizes powerful men.
Although Cheng Zheng took her away from her position as class monitor last time, she was not happy about it at all. She only resented that Lin Shuyao was not capable enough and had no right to replace her.
Hearing Zhao Tiemei's words, everyone looked at Cheng Zheng with even more respect.
Cheng Zheng showed no extra expression on his face. After the demonstration, he put down the gun and returned to his previous position.
The instructors divided everyone into groups for practice.
Lin Shuyao was assigned to the last position in the last group.
When it was her turn, she picked up the gun that was standing to the side, just as Cheng Zheng had demonstrated. As soon as she touched it, she felt her arm being pulled down heavily by the gun.
This old-fashioned rifle is long and heavy.
It was completely different from the guns she had played with in shooting clubs in her later life.
After finally managing to lift the gun, I held it up for only a few seconds before my arms started trembling and I couldn't hold it steady.
"Comrade, push your shoulders back a little harder... Yes, support yourself here with your left hand, hold on... Don't let your back sag..."
The instructor happened to be patrolling nearby and reached out from behind, subtly adjusting the position of Lin Shuyao's elbow as she held the gun, inevitably bringing the two closer together.
Just then, a deep voice interrupted, "There are a few male comrades in the third class who have serious problems with their movements. Go and give them special attention."
Cheng Zheng walked over at some point and stood to the side.
"Okay, I'll go over there." The instructor walked away.
Cheng Zheng took the instructor's place and gently embraced Lin Shuyao from behind.
Upon hearing his voice, Lin Shuyao subconsciously turned her head slightly to confirm if it was him. At the same time, Cheng Zheng leaned down and whispered in her ear, trying to remind her to relax.
As a result, they both turned their heads at the same time, and her soft lips brushed against the corner of his warm and resolute lips.
Lin Shuyao's eyes widened, and she caught her breath.
Cheng Zheng's pupils suddenly contracted, and his mind went blank.
It felt as if I had been struck by an electric current at the same time.
The next instant, Lin Shuyao turned her head sharply as if she had been burned, her cheeks flushed. Cheng Zheng also quickly stepped back, his Adam's apple bobbing heavily, and dark waves surging violently in his eyes.
For several seconds, neither of them spoke.
Something was silently fermenting in the air, and all the surrounding sounds became blurred background noise.
