    Chapter 265 "Rice Buck" Competition

    "Xue Rengui! Xue Rengui"

    "Fang Yiai! Fang Yiai"

    In the cafeteria of the military academy in the western suburbs of Chang'an City, loud shouts came and went, almost knocking off the roof of the cafeteria.  Li Jing, who was walking out of the instructors' cafeteria next to him, turned to look at the student cafeteria and said with a wry smile to Li Xiaogong, "Brother Xiaogong, if these bastards can be so excited during training, it will be much easier for us!"

    Li Xiaogong laughed loudly when he heard this and said: "Brother Yao, young people are all like this. They can't see their contribution in serious matters, but they are more excited than anyone else in this crooked way!"

    , it is dinner time, in the huge canteen of the military school, most of the students of the entire military school have gathered, it seems that there are thousands of people, and these people are not idle, each one is screaming at the top of his lungs.  , cheering for the players you like.

    In the center of this group of people, a special competition was going on. Although the content of the competition seemed very boring to others, for these soldiers who were trapped in the military academy every day, it was considered  One of the few shows to get excited about.

    Everyone formed a circle with a diameter of more than ten meters, and in this circle were scattered several wooden barrels containing rice. Each barrel had a small half of the rice left in it. Next to these barrels,  There was a row of soldiers holding their stomachs, groaning in pain.

    Yes, what was being held in the cafeteria was an eating competition. A dozen military cadets who felt they had amazing appetites were participating, but now they were all full, and there were only two guys left who were immersed in eating, and  One of these two people is Li Min's best friend Fang Yiai, and the other is Xue Rengui, who is valued by Li Min.

    The wooden buckets used to hold rice in the cafeteria are enough to feed twenty ordinary people. However, today these wooden buckets are used as tools for competitions. Each student participating in the competition has a wooden bucket, and then uses a big spoon to do it.  Eat, if you win, you can get the jackpot collected by all the students, which is about a hundred dollars, which is not a small sum.

    "Brother Yiai, you must resist, I have bet all this month's pocket money on you!" At this moment, Cheng Hualiang in the crowd shouted loudly.  Not only did each of them win a lottery, but they also opened a gambling game outside the venue. Cheng Hualiang bet all his pocket money for a month on Fang Yiai. After all, he knew the other person's appetite. Unfortunately, he didn't expect to meet Xue Rengui.  Such a strong enemy.

    "Brother Yiai, if you can't eat it, don't eat it, but don't make your stomach full!" Cheng Huailiang's voice just fell when he heard a strange cry from Li Yong next to him.  He rebelled against Cheng Huaili and placed all his bets on Xue Rengui.  Speaking of which, when he entered the military academy, Li Min specifically asked him to have a good relationship with Xue Rengui, so he was very aware of Xue Rengui's big appetite.

    With Cheng Huailiang and Li Yong taking the lead, supporting Fang and Xue were not to be outdone. While cheering for the two, they also interfered with each other with words from time to time.  The military academy is originally a gathering place for a group of over-energetic male animals. They would have made a fuss if they were outside. But this is a military academy. If the students dared to do anything in private, they would be punished.  Military law, so no one dared to take action.

    " Fang Yiai and Xue Rengui turned a deaf ear to the interference from the outside world. All their thoughts were focused on the rice pail in front of them. The spoons in their hands kept digging into their mouths desperately.

    Both of them are born with supernatural powers. If we only talk about pure strength, Fang Yiai is slightly better. However, he can only beat Xue Rengui in terms of strength. In terms of archery, riding, and military skills, Fang Yiai is superior.  He was completely defeated, but in terms of appetite, he was very confident and determined to win the opponent no matter what.

    Xue Rengui was born with a big appetite. With his ability, hunting in the mountains was enough to make his family live a prosperous life. However, because of his large appetite, the prey he caught was replaced with rice grains, but he could only make ends meet, which made  The family was living very hard.  Later, with the development of industry and commerce, people around him became rich. This made Xue Rengui unable to sit still, so he said goodbye to his wife and came to Chang'an to join the army and perform meritorious service.  Although he missed joining the army, he caught up with the Winter Games. After winning the archery championship, he was recruited into the military academy.

    "Old Xue! Hurry up~, it's about to bottom out. After eating, you will be worthy of your reputation as a loser!" Li Yong shouted from the side.  Although the military academy has only been established not long ago, Xue Rengui is already a well-known figure in the military academy. The first is because of his archery skills, and the second is his appetite. When he went to the cafeteria for the first time to eat, he filled the entire cafeteria with food.  Everyone was shocked, and the master chef in the canteen liked him very much. He told everyone he met that since he had Xue Rengui, heWe no longer have to worry about leftover food in the canteen.  Because of this, Xue Rengui, who had just entered the military academy, was known as a loser.

    I saw the spoon in Xue Rengui's hand flying like flying, and the little rice in the bucket was quickly disappearing. When he finished the last bite of rice, the people next to him headed by Li Yong immediately cheered, although the game was not over yet.  , but at least in terms of speed, Xue Rengui beat Fang Yiai.

    After Xue Rengui finished the meal, he took a long breath, then wiped the sweat from his forehead, and then looked at his partner, and found that the rice bucket in front of Fang Yiai was also bottomed out, but at this time  Fang Yiai had obviously reached her limit, and there was a look of reluctance on her face as she swallowed.

    Seeing this, Xue Rengui did not order any more food, but looked at the other party with a smile.  And Fang Yiai really couldn't eat anymore at this time, especially when he saw that the other party had finished a bucket earlier than him, and seemed to still have enough energy left, which made him feel a little frustrated, and finally just took his hand.  Throwing the spoon, he cupped his fists and said, "I give up!"

    "We won~"

    ¡° As soon as Fang Yiai admitted defeat, countless people on Li Yong¡¯s side immediately jumped up. Winning money was secondary. The key was that after winning, it proved that they had a vision and immediately bet on the right player.  Cheng Huailiang, who lost money, was naturally dejected, but for the sake of face, he naturally had to say a few harsh words, such as giving the other party some color next time.

    The winners and losers have been decided. The losers happily go to collect their bets, while the losers leave in frustration.  However, Cheng Huailiang, Li Yong, Qin Huaiyu and other Li Min's friends did not leave. It is worth mentioning that Su Dingfang was recruited into the military academy because of his military merit and is now hanging out with Li Yong and the others.

    Cheng Huailiang and others came out of the cafeteria together, and everyone was walking and chatting. Among them, Cheng Huailiang, who was the most informed, said, "Hey, do you know that Liu Lang will return to Chang'an in a few days?"

    "Really? That's great!" Li Yong, who had the best relationship with Li Min, immediately shouted excitedly when he heard this, but then said a little frustrated, "Oh, it's a pity that we are locked up in the military academy every day.  We are not allowed to go out at all, and we can't even hear news from the outside world. Even if Liu Lang comes back, we probably won't be able to go out to pick him up."

    Upon hearing Li Yong's words, many people had helpless expressions on their faces. Although they learned a lot in the military academy, the military academy was too strict. There were even more rules than in the military camp. If you were not careful,  You may violate a school rule, and the consequences of violating a school rule are extremely serious. The most famous one is being locked up in a small dark room.  Locking a person alone in a small, airtight room may not be a big deal at first, but the longer it goes on, the more frightening it becomes. After one tastes that kind of taste, one will never want to taste it again.  twice.  It's a pity that people like Li Yong don't know that this kind of punishment in the small black room was at the hands of Li Min.

    We were chatting while walking, mainly about Li Min and Li Ke¡¯s trip to the south. After all, many of them sent people to Taiwan to establish plantations, so they were also very concerned about Li Min¡¯s trip.

    When they arrived at the students' dormitory area, Cheng Huailiang and others dispersed and returned to their dormitories. Among them, Li Yong and Xue Rengui lived in the same dormitory, so they were still walking together. At this time, Li Yong suddenly asked: "Brother Rengui, I heard that  Have you brought your sister-in-law and nephew to Chang'an?"

    Xue Rengui also laughed when he heard this: "Yes, I got some bonuses at the last Winter Games, plus various subsidies from the military academy. The total money is enough for their mother and son to live in Chang'an, so a few days ago  I will take all my family members to Chang'an, and if the military academy has a holiday in the future, I can also go and see them."

    After hearing this, Li Yong showed a worried expression and asked in a concerned tone: "Brother Rengui, it's not easy to live in Chang'an. I also know the situation in your family. Although you got some bonus last time, you want to buy a house in Chang'an."  Living there is not an easy task, right?"

    Li Yong's words are absolutely correct. Xue Rengui did get a bonus of several hundred dollars last time. However, the land price in Chang'an City has always remained high. Especially after the two years of prosperity, the land price in Chang'an has skyrocketed, and even other aspects of life have increased.  Supplies are also higher than other places. A few hundred dollars may seem like a lot, but after buying a decent house, there probably won¡¯t be much left, let alone enough to support two people.

    "Well, Brother Li is right. The land price in Chang'an is too expensive, so I rented a yard in Zhaoxingfang. Although it is not very big, it is enough for their mother and son to live in!" Xue Rengui said with a sigh.  He really wants a war to break out right now, so that he will have the opportunity to go to the battlefield. Only by going to the battlefield can he make military exploits and gain a lot of wealth through war.

    Li Yong frowned after hearing Xue Rengui's words. Zhaoxingfang is in the southwest corner of Chang'an, next to Yongyangfang, where is Chang'an.Where Anseong's poor people gather, the people at the lowest level live.  Xue Rengui is now a member of the military academy, and in the future he will be a general at the lowest level. It is really inappropriate for his family to live in that kind of place.  .
