Chapter 9: The Best Dad
When Lei Dong returned to the small villa area located in the compound of a certain department of the General Staff in the western suburbs of Hanjing, it was already midnight, but the lights in the living room were still on. Through the courtyard gate, Lei Dong already felt that his father, the deputy minister of intelligence, was sitting upright on the large sofa, his eyes firmly fixed on the door.
Some things are coming! Lei Dong shook his head, straightened his expression, gently pushed open the door, strode in, saluted a standard military salute, and said loudly: "Major General Lei Tiangang, Lei Dong has returned home from visiting relatives and reported to you, please instruct!" ”
Lei Tiangang is burly, with short hair on his head standing upright, a big black square face, strong lines, and a pair of big eyes.
Seeing that his son, who was already quite a bit of a soldier, he reported to him with the demeanor of a soldier, nodded, and pointed to the sofa opposite: "Sit down." ”
Lei Dong turned around and sat on the sofa opposite his father, his feet shoulder-width apart, his hands naturally hanging down, placed on his legs, his upper body naturally straightened, and his eyes looked directly at his father.
"Are you settled?" Lei Tiangang's first sentence did not surprise Lei Dong, with the department that his father was in charge of, if he didn't know what was going on until now, he would be surprised.
"Settle in." Lei Dong nodded.
Lei Tiangang stared at Lei Dong's calm face for a long time before he spoke: "Let's talk about it." ”
Lei Dong smiled bitterly, he knew that what his father meant was not to let him explain the ins and outs of this matter, but to ask him to describe the entire "battle process" in detail, and then analyze and comment on it, which was an inevitable process after every time he fought with someone, and his father called this a "post-war summary". As for the reason for the outbreak of the "war", it has never been the focus of attention, in the words of his old man: "The war has already started, do you still need to find a reason?" ”
For such a superb father's best practice, Lei Dong is usually extremely speechless. Isn't he afraid of turning himself into a lawless demon king? Lei Dong often worries about his father.
Shaking his head, Lei Dong explained what happened in the evening one by one, how he met Lin Tianyi, how he felt that something was quiet, how he staged a bloody plot of heroes saving beauty at a critical juncture, and how he settled quietly in the home of a villager who had met in a thousand-year-old "survival training" in the mountains of a neighboring province, explained it clearly one by one, and then waited for his father's comments.
Lei Tiangang's brows became tighter and tighter, staring at Lei Dong tightly, staring at Lei Dong's heart for a while, he knew that this was usually the manifestation of his father's extreme dissatisfaction.
After a while, Lei Tiangang slowly spoke: "It sounds like your combat power has been greatly improved, but other than that, you are almost useless today!" Oh, of course, you finally sent Quiet away and settled, and you barely qualified. ”
Lei Dong almost screamed in his heart, very surprised, originally he thought that his "war" process was still going well. But he didn't have any fluctuations on the surface, just looked at his father with an inquiring gaze.
"First," Lei Tiangang raised his index finger: "narrow-sighted." You first overthrew Lin Jiangnan and solved the opponent with the strongest combat effectiveness, which is right, but for Lin Jiangnan's words, you left the main battlefield and continued to attack the opponent who was no longer a threat to you at all, this is a typical ineffective attack, you forget, there is also a Lin Tianyi next to you who was only thrown out by you, but did not lose combat effectiveness, which shows that you have no overall concept in the battle at all. Remember, in war, you have to keep an eye not only on tactical objectives, but also on the big picture, otherwise you will never be a good commander. ”
Lei Dong pouted, since I was a child, my father often talked about war, that is, you can never become a qualified commander, we don't want to be a commander, we just want to go to Hanking University and have a good time, okay?
Lei Tiangang ignored Lei Dong's expression, and raised his second finger to himself: "Second, paralyze and underestimate the enemy." You completely knocked down Lin Jiangnan, so you hurried to comfort that little girl, obviously, you thought that the bastard next to you, Lin Tianyi, could not pose a huge threat to you, but Lin Tianyi took out his pistol, which almost caused unpredictable consequences. ”
Glancing at Lei Dong, who opened his mouth to say something, Lei Tiangang waved his hand: "I know, you have extremely strong combat power, according to your master, what 'golden pill' period have you reached, right?" Lei Dong nodded.
Lei Tiangang then asked, "So, you think you have enough strength to deal with the threat of Lin Tianyi's waste, right?" Lei Dong nodded again, and his face naturally showed a hint of pride.
"What if, I mean if, you don't reach the golden pill stage? Would you still be so sure? Lei Tiangang asked, "Or, what if Lin Tianyi is not so wasteful as he looks on the surface, but a master who hides his true strength?" What do you do? Lei Dong opened his mouth, and for a moment he could not find a reason to object, only to hear his father begin to recount the views he had taught him countless times: "On the battlefield, any paralysis of the enemy is unacceptable, and any slightest negligence may lead to disastrous consequences, and you must keep this in mind." ”
Lei Dong knew that what his father said was very reasonable, but deep down he was faintly disapproving: as one of the few cultivators on this planet, as a 10-year-old who successfully built a foundation, and at the age of 13, he had successfully formed a golden pill, and now he is less than 18 years old, he is already close to the Yuan Infant Stage, and all the wind and grass within a radius of 100 meters cannot hide his own sense, and he can feel the movement within five kilometers by intentionally releasing his divine sense, what else is there to fear?
Yes, there is that obstacle in his body, so that he can't fully exert his strength, let alone ignore the possible damage that modern weapons like bullets may cause to him, but what about after reaching the realm of shattering pills and becoming infants? Don't talk about bullets, don't be afraid of shells, right? What about attaining the Mahayana stage? Is it that except for nuclear bombs, earthlings are no longer able to stop themselves from crisscrossing the seas? Besides, will there be a war in the current republic? War, where's it? Where is the battlefield? Split ends, rough, dry, where?
Lei Dong nodded while thinking chaotically in his heart, but his eyes were as calm as ever.
Lei Tiangang raised a third finger again: "Third, impulsive, the timing of the campaign is not right." Don't you remember, how great the strength of the Lin family is, and how fierce the recent upward momentum is? Speaking of this, his voice became stern, and his eyes widened even more, looking at Lei Dong for a moment.
Lei Dong finally stopped nodding this time: "I remember, I remember all this, but I had to make a move in the situation at that time, otherwise Quiet would be hurt unexpectedly." After a pause, Lei Dong said firmly: "I insist that a man, no matter how incapable and weak he is, but when the person he likes is hurt, he can't stand up and fight back, then he might as well cut himself and become a eunuch!" ”
Lei Tiangang looked at Lei Dong fixedly, Lei Dong did not shy away, and looked directly into Lei Tiangang's eyes.
After a long time, Lei Tiangang suddenly nodded, and a proud expression hung on the corner of his mouth: "Very good!" It was a man's answer. Lei Tiangang showed a sly and smug smile after the conspiracy succeeded: "I ask you this question, not to blame you, but to see if you are still a man, whether you can still think like a man, do you know that there is still such a lump in your crotch......"
Lei Dong opened his mouth and stammered, almost bursting out of a foul mouth, but he hurriedly held back, and his face was flushed.
For such a superb father, he is really speechless.
"Wars are not always carried out according to the prior plan, maybe a small incident will lead to a sudden battle, or even a war......" Lei Tiangang seemed to remember something from the past, and was silent for a long time before saying: "But you have to remember that unless this kind of encounter and unexpected event, when you decide to launch a war against the enemy, or launch a big battle, or even launch a simple battle and impact, you must plan carefully and consider all aspects of the matter clearly." And even if it is a sudden battle caused by an unexpected situation, you must plan as quickly as possible, including offensive and defensive plans, and the final retreat. This requires you to keep a clear head at all times, to be brave but not impulsive, to be hateful but not angry! Always stay calm and never make decisions out of anger and impulsiveness, knowing that it is a matter of life and death for many people!
"You have to keep in mind that 'the temple without a fight is considered a winner, and the one who does not fight and the temple is considered a lot, and the temple without a fight is counted as a few.'" More wins, less wins, and nothing counts!'"
This time, Lei Dong did not show a disapproving look, but nodded thoughtfully.
"For example, now," Lei Tiangang stared at Lei Dong with burning eyes, "this matter, how are you going to deal with the aftermath?" ”
Lei Dong's heart couldn't help but sink slightly, and his first reaction was that his father really couldn't help much. But then, there was a sudden relief in his heart, he couldn't tell why this was, perhaps, it was finally time for him to face the big things and bear it alone?
After a moment of silence, Lei Dong raised his head and looked at his father: "I'll take care of it......"
"Deal with the fart!" Before Lei Dong's words fell, Lei Tiangang was already covered with frost on his face, and interrupted him, "What can you do?" How do you deal with it? What can you handle? ”
Lei Tiangang asked questions like a cannon, but there was neither mockery nor anger on his face, Lei Dong couldn't help but be stunned, and hesitated: "I ......"
Lei Tiangang raised his hand to stop Lei Dong from going on, and said lightly: "You don't need to say it, I'll tell you that there are only three ways you can think of now-" Lei Dong raised his eyebrows, but he didn't interrupt Lei Tiangang's words, just listened quietly.
"First," Lei Tiangang stretched out his index finger, "and ran away with that girl called Quiet—"
"Dad?"
"You listen to me, not to mention whether people are willing to go with you, where can you go, and don't say that such a young and beautiful girl with a bright future, is it too cruel to run away with you, just talk about your character, will you escape when facing big things? Of course not! ”
"Of course not!" Looking at his father with an indifferent face, Lei Dong was suddenly a little moved, just because of his understanding of himself.
"So, I'm afraid that this idea was vetoed by yourself when it first appeared! Then, you have a second choice," Lei Tiangang stretched out his middle finger and made a gesture that seemed to be a "V" shape of victory with his index finger, and seemed to say that the other party was very "two", and said: "One person does things and one person is responsible, and he goes to the police to surrender!" ”
Lei Dong twisted his eyebrows, and before he could speak, Lei Tiangang was already shaking his head there: "Of course you won't do this, don't say that you don't think you are at fault in this matter, even if you are wrong, you will never bow your head and admit your guilt - sitting back and waiting to be killed has never been your character!" So, in fact, you only have the third choice, one and two endlessly! ”
In Lei Donghuo's raised his head, revealing an undisguised shocked gaze, Lei Tiangang stretched out his third finger and said slowly, word by word: "Chop!" Grass! Except! Root! ”
Four words, each of which seemed to be a huge oil hammer, slammed heavily on the thunderous heart, making his heart tremble, blood boiling, and it seemed that the whole person had turned into a lion with fiery flames, and a monstrous momentum erupted from his body, "Whew-" This momentum is so vast that the coercion brought by it can hardly even flow the surrounding air, and it will burn!
However, under such a huge coercion, Lei Tiangang still sat there motionless, his expression was still indifferent, as if the monstrous momentum on the opposite side was just a gust of fresh breeze!
This was the first time Lei Dong showed his strength in front of Lei Tiangang, and the result was greatly unexpected by him. I used to hear that my father crawled out of the sea of corpses and blood, but Lei Dong has always been very suspicious - the republic has been peaceful for decades, how can there ever be a war? Where does the sea of corpses and blood begin? But at this time, seeing Lei Tiangang's calm expression when facing his terrifying momentum, Lei Dong was sure that his father had definitely had an extraordinary experience!
And what surprised Lei Dong the most was that his father almost grasped his psychological state to an extremely accurate realm, in front of him, he seemed to be a transparent person, and there were no secrets to hide!
Just when Lei Dong suppressed the blood surging in his body and slowly restrained his momentum, Lei Tiangang spoke again, his expression was still so indifferent, and he still exuded incomparable seriousness and majesty: "I admit that with your current cultivation, you have the ability to achieve your goal, if you add which of your divine dragons is a master who does not see the end of the head, the probability of your success is more than ninety percent." However, even if you succeed and kill all the important people up and down the Lin family, have you thought about it, what will you do in the future? Do you think that if something so big happens, the country will let you go? A person like you, who is almost uncontrolled, after doing such a dangerous thing, will the state, the army let you go? Do you think you can confront the whole country? Even if you can, it's okay to be quiet? ”
"Kara!" Lei Tiangang's last sentence was like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, exploding above Lei Dong's head! He shook his head mechanically, but he couldn't say a word, yes, even if he could walk away, even if he wasn't afraid of death, what about quiet? She was just an innocent victim, she was so kind, but how could she suffer such a shame?
"If your answer is no, then what's the difference between doing so and running for your life now? As a warrior, in any war, it is necessary to achieve victory at the lowest possible cost, rather than completely ignoring the consequences and costs, and recklessly fighting with the opponent - that is not brave, that is stupid! ”
Lei Tiangang's voice became more and more severe, and Lei Dong couldn't help but let out a long sigh, lowered his head, and his heart was full of frustration: it turned out that when facing the powerful state apparatus, he, who usually claimed to be a powerful cultivator, was completely powerless. But just let others bully the woman you love, and do nothing yourself?
I'm not reconciled!
Lei Dong's heart was dripping blood, his eyes had become red, a heart that had already sunk had become rigid again, and his blood was boiling again!
"If this goes any way, I beg of you, protect the quiet!" Lei Dong's voice was full of indomitable determination, and he stood up and bowed deeply to Lei Tiangang: "She is innocent!" ”
