1968: At the beginning, the beautiful sister-in-law came to borrow food! Chapter 127

“Is it that tragic?”

Seeing so many martial arts masters being carried back, and witnessing their miserable state, Donkey and the others couldn’t help but gasp.

Even Li Yunfeng was a bit surprised. In his previous life, he had only seen records in the news. He didn’t really understand the situation back then. Now that he was participating in this martial arts competition himself, he finally understood the brutality of this martial arts convention.

“I heard we get to rest one more day tomorrow.”

“Tomorrow, let’s rest well in the tent.”

“The day after tomorrow morning, we’ll have to go over. It’s likely that the group going in with us will be the same people who came with us today.”

“Sigh, I wonder how many of us will survive the day after tomorrow!”

Li Yunfeng returned to his tent, lay on his bed, and continued to roast by the fire.

In the evening, after eating a meal in the mess hall, the food was still quite good.

Everyone returned to their tents to rest.

At minus thirty degrees Celsius, it was still very cold in the tent. Even with the stove, it was still a bit chilly.

Li Yunfeng and the others could only arrange their beds around the stove. Li Yunfeng had one bed to himself, and the remaining four people shared two beds.

The night passed without a word. Early the next morning, Li Yunfeng and the others crawled out of their sleeping bags.

As soon as they stepped out of the tent, they saw soldiers training and many martial arts masters practicing their martial arts!

“You all arrived yesterday, right?”

“Here’s a map of the island. Take it back and study it carefully.”

“See where there are covers, where you can set up ambushes, and so on.”

“Someone will explain it to you specifically this afternoon.”

Li Yunfeng and the others had just reached the mess hall, preparing to eat, when the soldier who had received them yesterday walked over and handed them a map!

Li Yunfeng opened the map and immediately began to examine it.

The entire island wasn’t large, about five hundred meters east to west and two thousand meters north to south. That was its longest, meaning its widest point east to west was about half a kilometer, and its longest point north to south was about two kilometers.

In this icy, snowy weather, even if the paths on the island were difficult to walk, it would only take about ten minutes to encounter someone. What was the point of looking for cover then? Just find someone and fight!

“Such a small place, there’s no need for us to hide!”

“Tomorrow, when we get there, we’ll just fight directly.”

“I wonder how many people will be deployed at once.”

Li Yunfeng scratched his head and couldn’t help but ask. If it were a hundred people in such a small place, it would be a massive free-for-all. Fifty or sixty people would still be a significant battle. After all, this place was relatively small, and neither side wanted to escalate the situation too much. That’s why they sent militiamen and various martial arts masters into the arena.

“Yeah, that’s not a problem!”

“We all have our weapons. Tomorrow, we’ll let them see how formidable we are.”

“Isn’t that right? Tomorrow, we’ll just go straight over.”

“Once we get there, we’ll just charge in from the edges.”

Donkey and Simpleton also looked at the map. They found that there was no place to hide. When the two sides met, it was just one word: fight! There was no place to hide, and neither side had any major tactics.

After eating their fill, Li Yunfeng and the others stood on the river and looked towards the island.

The entire area was already surrounded. There was no other way to enter except through the entrance. This side was their people, and that side was the enemy. Both sides were constantly probing on the island, trying to gauge the other’s attitude. It could be said that if either side backed down at this moment, the price would be enormous.

Today, more than twenty people entered the island. These people drank a bowl of wine at the entrance before walking onto the island.

“Not many people this time.”

“If both sides deploy so few people,”

“Then tomorrow, when we go, it’ll be a complete碾压 (crushing victory)!”

Watching these martial arts masters carry their weapons onto the island, Li Yunfeng and the others could even see things on the island from where they stood. However, they couldn’t see everything; most of the area was blocked by trees. Although there weren’t many trees, they still obstructed a lot of the view.

“Let’s go, let’s go back and rest. There’s no point in watching!”

“Tomorrow, I’ll give you some good stuff to drink!”

Li Yunfeng planned to bring out some deer tail wine for his brothers tomorrow. This stuff made one feel very hot. Not only could it raise body temperature, but it could also give everyone strength! When they got there, everyone would be able to swing their axes!

“Alright, it’s our turn tomorrow. Let’s get some good rest today!”

With that, the brothers returned to their tents and began to rest.

Meanwhile, while the brothers were resting here, back at the Red Flag Production Team, Li Yunfeng, Donkey, and the others’ families were all thinking about what was happening.

“I wonder how my man is doing. Will he get hurt?”

Natasha, Sophia, Shuhua, Shuzhen, and Li Xiulian, the five women, were all sitting by the fireplace. They were all relying on Li Yunfeng to live now. Although the ten gold ingots they had were enough for them to live there, they had also developed feelings for Li Yunfeng over such a long time. Now that Li Yunfeng had gone to the martial arts convention, how could they not worry?

“Don’t worry, Brother Yunfeng is so strong, how could anything happen to him?”

“Let’s not overthink things. Just wait for Brother Yunfeng to come back.”

“That’s right, don’t worry. This time, Donkey, Simpleton, and the others all went together.”

“They’ll have company over there!”

“The five of them are all burly and strong.”

“Just rest assured!”

Li Xiulian comforted the other women. In truth, she was also very worried.

“Ugh!”

“Ugh!”

“Ugh!”

Here, as the women were talking, Shuhua covered her mouth and began to vomit.

“Sister Shuhua?”

“What is this?”

“Are you alright?”

“Are you pregnant?”

The women looked at Shuhua and all gathered around. Although Li Xiulian had never given birth herself, after so many years, hadn’t she seen a pig run even if she hadn’t eaten pork? Calculating the days, Li Yunfeng had been here for over a month. Shuhua was probably pregnant, as both Li Yunfeng and Li Shuhua had no issues!

“It seems I’m pregnant?”
