Chapter 37 General Training
When I returned to the stack room, it was about time, and the lights of all the homes should be extinguished, but the two people in the stack were stunned by the lights, and the creak of opening the door woke up Lin Han and Wen Yaliang, who were half asleep, they got up happily and asked what had happened, Jiang Ming said it briefly one by one, and several people had the joy of being spared.
While several people were about to sleep, Lin Han quietly said to Jiang Ming: "They sent me a message, Chu Hong's injury is getting more and more serious, I will go back tomorrow, take care! If you have nowhere to go, you can come to my Wohua Mountain." ”
Jiang Ming nodded and wrote it down, took out a small ancient yellow book from his arms, and said solemnly: "This is a volume of martial arts, mainly guns, don't put it in front of people, there will inevitably be a disaster of killing." "The treasure handed out is naturally a treasure obtained from the Ageless Peak Cave, and one person can only practice one class, which is also a favor that Jiang Ming intentionally gifted.
Turning over the scroll, a few big characters inside came into view, and it was written "Eclipse words, break the hurdles", Lin Han hurriedly put it away, eager to refuse, but seeing Jiang Ming's expression firm and full of trust, he clenched it tightly, swallowed the words of gratitude, and the corners of his mouth lifted an arc: "In this case, I will also tell you one thing, when you escaped from Yeyang City, there were really three people who helped you, and it was the strong person who took you to escape all the way, and he fanned dozens of guards with one sleeve, otherwise it would be really difficult for you to escape from the heavily surrounded Houfeng Palace." The second is a local bandit team feints to attack the palace, I guess it should be the people of Ganyong Village, and finally the people I led to intercept the guards at the city gate, do you know?"
It is expected that Jiang Ming is smart, and he can't imagine that there will be these things that night, the identity of the old man who can backhand the cloud is unknown, and he only said that he wanted to take Mu Qinglan as an apprentice so he rescued him, so why did Gan Yongzhai help him? Jiang Ming looked at Lin Han's eyes, and was full of doubts again.
"I don't know the purpose of Gan Yong Village, but I was ordered to stir up the situation, because King Hou Feng has always advocated a truce with the Qin Dynasty, the purpose is to clear my military eyes in Xingyu Prefecture in Wohua Mountain, of course we can't let him get his wish, and I appreciate you very much that you can fight a thousand horses alone, if you can help you, it is also a small favor. It is estimated that King Hou Feng was still depressed at that time, forgive him for his dual talents with Wei Dao'an, and he can't see through me to intervene!" Lin Han also showed a little bad feeling towards King Hou Feng, which was extremely rare in these days of getting along.
After Lin Han left, Jiang Ming lay down on the bed and meditated, thinking that he had a lot of experience on the way to come, and thinking that this way would have to cross thousands of mountains and rivers, he felt that the pursuit was still far away, and he didn't know when he had fallen asleep.
After Lin Han left, Wen Yaliang also left, he should continue to go to the south of the Lost Age Peak to build a tomb, to build a resting place for 10,000 soldiers, I don't know how many days and moons will pass, this is his persistence and obsession.
Jiang Ming and Shen Yiwei came to the Cambrian military camp again, but Gao Zhuxu had already brought him tasks: riding and shooting, raising shields, and arraying. What made Shen Yi depressed was that Gao Zhuxu's task executor was Jiang Ming and her.
"Exercise, exercise, by the way, contact feelings!" This is the reason given by Gao Zhuxu, even if Shen Yi, who has been a man for a long time, can't help but have a hot face, she can't shirk anything, so she has to go into battle with a bow.
"Archery pays attention to waist stability, arm open fist, Jiang Ming, although your martial arts can be regarded as a martial arts master, but lack of complex and changeable grinding in battle, riding archery is the primary skill of cavalry, my cavalry battalion is 5,000 people, every cavalry can do the arrow without missing a shot, you two can experience it yourself. Gao Zhuxu raised his iron tire bow, the bow pulled the full moon, the arrow came out, its sound broke the wind, 100 meters away in the middle of the arrow target red heart, its momentum did not stop, through the target, straight into the military flag mast 300 meters away.
The onlookers applauded, and Jiang Ming and Shen Yiwu applauded even more sluggishly, it is not an exaggeration to say that such archery skills are channeled. Gao Zhuxu was not half proud, handed over the bow and arrows to Jiang Ming one by one, pointed to the arrow target a hundred meters away, and said: "If you hit the ten rings, I will buy you ten catties of wine in the valley." ”
Jiang Ming smiled brightly, although he rarely shoots arrows, but he has studied the casting of hidden weapons, and he boasts that his accuracy is not bad, so he stood in front of him, posing a serious and focused look, opening his bow, that is, shooting from a distance, the arrow flew out, and hit the nine rings of the arrow target.
Jiang Ming was suddenly embarrassed, this wine was not earned, but so many people saw the joke, those soldiers laughed boldly, after all, it was not easy for them to hit the bull's-eye, but Shen Yiwu on the side was laughing forward and backward, almost fainting with laughter, she teased: "How can you, a man who can be a hundred, not even compare to Uncle Gao's cavalry, it's really embarrassing!"
"Otherwise, you'll come!" Jiang Ming stuffed the bow and arrow into Shen Yi's arms, thinking about how to laugh back. But seeing a smile on the corner of Shen Yi's mouth, she also pulled the bow and shot the arrow, but she only pulled out a half circle, her eyes narrowed slightly, her fingers moved lightly, although the arrow was not as powerful as Jiang Ming's shot, but it did not accidentally hit the red heart. There was another cheer on the field.
"How is it, have you taken it? This girl has learned a few tricks, how can you be compared to a mortal man. Shen Yiwu approached Jiang Ming's side and smashed his elbow into his chest, his provocative attitude overflowing.
Gao Zhuxu didn't express any attitude, only ordered the soldiers to move the arrow target back a hundred meters, plus the previous distance, the place where Jiang Ming was standing was already two hundred meters away from the arrow target, a distance that even some archery veterans in the army did not dare to say that they could hit a hundred shots.
Jiang Ming pulled the bow and shot again, and the arrow hit the three rings. And Shen Yi was worried about shooting again, and the arrow hit the eight rings.
The arrow target moved back another hundred meters, Jiang Ming missed the arrow target with three shots, and Shen Yi was worried that the arrow could not be shot.
The target was then moved to 500 meters, and neither of them could shoot arrows.
Gao Zhuxu said: "My elite cavalry requires an arrow to shoot four hundred meters, and none of the crosshairs miss within two hundred and fifty meters, so you can practice here until you meet my requirements." ”
Gao Zhuxu brought the two to the shield platoon again, and asked the skilled veteran to teach the method of raising the shield, and said on the side: "Raising the shield is an important part of the confrontation between the two armies, the shield soldiers can block the enemy's arrows, can also block the spear and halberd's distant stabs, and can also block the enemy's horse sprint." A qualified shield soldier must be brave in the front, but it is more important to pay more attention to the overall coordination of the shield array, if you leave your own spear soldiers and shield array, the role of a shield soldier is not as good as a stone blocking people. ”
As for the formation in the mission, Gao Zhuxu did not mention it, but only taught his soldiers to carefully teach the two of them the skills of archery and shield raising, and he guided them from time to time.
In the past few days, Jiang Ming and Shen Yiwu have made great progress, and they have also felt the charm of the army in the contact with the soldiers, they may be rough people, rude in conversation and have no cultural knowledge, but that kind of arrogance makes the two extremely comfortable, and the atmosphere of unity and mutual help in the army makes them very liked.
"If it weren't for the hardships I couldn't bear, I would have stayed in this army. Shen Yiwu said this, but she knew that it was impossible, her identity was to be contaminated with right and wrong wherever she went, and only this Gao Zhuxu dared to take her in.
Jiang Ming has gotten along with Shen Yiwei in the past few days, the rooster cries together, the sunset rests together, drinks and talks, eats at the same table every day, and the feelings between friends are incomparable. Of course, it can only be friends.
At the end of the ninth day, Jiang Ming and Shen Yiwei left the barracks and came to a restaurant to eat, with a roast chicken, a few side dishes with meat and vegetables, and two catties of wine, which was beautiful.
Taking advantage of the slightly drunken drunkenness, Shen Yi was worried about lying on the table, staring at Jiang Ming with two fluttering eyes, and said with a smile: "I've known you for the past few days, I haven't seen you look for a girl, and I think that you have an unusual relationship with that Lin Han guy, let's say quickly, are you not interested in women!"
Jiang Ming was also slightly drunk, and when he was drunk, he put his arm on Shen Yi's shoulders and said, "How is it possible, I am a very principled person, how can I find those girls on the street? What's more, there is a great beauty like you! I'm not looking for a man, am I?"
"Come less! I can't get used to you fake men, how can anyone not love the women of the Qinglou?" Shen Yi's eyes widened, and he suddenly smiled slyly, and said, "Unless, you have someone you like, so you are like a jade." Haha! Tell me who it is, or I'll call the girl. ”
Jiang Ming hurriedly stretched out his hand to stop it, but unexpectedly, Shen Yi's body that stood up was as soft as a puddle of mud, and he fell to the ground with a slight pull, he hurriedly picked it up and said, "Do you want to hear it?" I do have someone I like, the former one is my childhood sweetheart's playmate, I don't know if I really like her, she faintly expressed that meaning to me, but I felt unacceptable from the bottom of my heart. It wasn't until later, when she really talked about not thinking about it anymore, that my heart became so painful, so painful. ”
Shen Yiwu fell directly into Jiang Ming's arms, curled up in a ball, his eyes squinted, as if he was about to fall asleep, but he still seemed to be babbling: "And then, now do you know if you really like her?"
Jiang Ming took another drink stupidly, as if awake and drunk, and leaned back in the wooden chair with his head up: "Then, I can still be sure that I don't really like her, guarding her is for my heart, and I feel heartache because I pity her misery, because I really have someone I like." Nobody knows. ”
"It turned out to be a crush, you guy is really not honest!" Shen Yi smacked his mouth worriedly, sat up with one hand on Jiang Ming's thigh, picked up another glass of wine, poured it into his throat, coughed twice, and said, "Then why didn't I see you pursue the person you like?"
Jiang Ming glanced at Shen Yiwu and said: "She is a genius of the Upper Realm Sect in the Land of Three Walls, and she is a beautiful woman in the Alluring City who stands proudly in the entire Wilderness Realm, I don't know how many suitors are waiting around her, with the talent and talent of her status realm, an unknown crush like me, people may not even remember their names." ”
"Your goal is really ambitious, you actually look at such a fairy, so bold, my sister admires. Why can't you see me? I'm not a beauty, am I? Shen Yiwu laughed, then drank another glass of wine before pouring it on the table.
"Hahaha!" Jiang Ming didn't know what to say, so he grinned, raised his eyes and looked around, there were no other guests, so he picked up Shen Yi's worries, settled the account, and went straight to the stackhouse.
On the edge of the dark corner of a restaurant, a man in black drew a snowy scimitar and quietly followed Jiang Ming, who was staggering, waiting for his prey to enter the best place of death.
Before he could make a move, a long sword was placed on his neck: "I allow you to move here to give Tiangangmen a great face, don't touch my bottom line!"
In the dark, the man in black was drenched in cold sweat, his body was also collapsed to the ground, and when he turned around, he was no longer the speaker, and he even forgot that he was still an experienced killer of the eighth-stage human realm.
A fallen leaf, a river, a world of ice and snow like spring, only these two objects are moving, and silence has not asked the traces of people, and the depression has not looked for birdsong. Why don't rivers freeze and from which trees do the fallen leaves fall from? Maybe he knows, but he doesn't want anyone to know.
He was dressed in a purple robe, he floated in the middle of the river, he was a madman who stuck a bloody sword, he was a sword demon who ruthlessly killed the Quartet. At this moment, he seemed to hibernate, and the next moment, his eyes suddenly opened, like the clarity of the clouds and rain.
"Bang bang bang!" dozens of whirlpools of water surged from the soles of the man's feet, roaring and bursting out of the river, and then rushing up to the sky. The man suddenly snorted coldly, and a sword blade seemed to come from the heavenly palace and plunged vertically into the water, and the sound was like a landslide cracking, the water rolled into crystal waves, and the river slowly froze into an ice field.
The man raised his hand and picked up the purple-black long sword, stroked the sharp sword body dotingly, and muttered in a low voice: "Finally reached the ninefold status...... What no one knows is that the purple-robed man realized on the water, and broke the ninefold on the eighteenth, after which his bloody storm will follow.
......
Jiang Ming pressed his faintly aching head and cursed, his eyes couldn't be opened due to the dazzling sunlight, and he wanted to turn over and stand up, but his body seemed to be pressed against a big stone. He stretched out his hand and felt around, trying to find an edge and corner to move things away, but only to find that the touch was a little soft, and an indescribable idea suddenly rushed into his mind: Shen Yi worried.
But seeing Shen Yiwu's body lying diagonally on him, his long hair was scattered like a willow in early spring, his red face revealed a different kind of alluring state, and he didn't know when he turned into a daughter, and his chest was slightly ridged, which made Jiang Ming's face a little indescribable.
"So, I'm afraid it's not okay?" Seeing such a situation, what man with a normal orientation would not think about it? But if he really did something, even if he could get away with drunkenness, even if she could forgive him, how could his heart be calm?
"It's really a test for me, but Shen Yiwu is really beautiful. But I'm not blessed!" Jiang Ming muttered in a low voice, his eyes couldn't help but glance at Shen Yiwu, his heart was a little trance, he slapped himself hard, then got up gently, dressed simply, and lowered his head to straighten Shen Yi's body, covered the quilt, and felt that his lower abdomen was even hotter from time to time, so he got up and walked out quickly.
As the wooden door creaked shut, the woman lying on the bed suddenly raised her hand, rubbed her slightly narrowed eyes, and exhaled softly for no reason, I don't know whether she was relieved or sighed.
Jiang Ming sat at the wine table, poured a glass of sake into his throat from time to time, his eyes were a little bitter, he had tried his best to recall what happened last night, but he didn't have a clear impression at all, he only remembered that he came back with Shen Yiwu in his arms, and somehow slept together, which made him feel a little angry: Beast, how to face her in the future!
At this time, Shen Yiwei, whose eyes were slightly worried, also slowly walked downstairs, his body had recovered the appearance of a man, he had not yet washed, and he was a little lazy in his gestures, and shouted to Jiang Ming in the middle of the stairs: "It's almost noon now, why don't we go to the barracks?"
Jiang Ming looked a little flustered, and hurriedly pushed the wine jar aside, made room for Shen Yiwu to sit, and said with a smile: "It's the last day, it doesn't matter if you go late." Hmm~ What do you want to eat?"
After that, the two went to the barracks again, Shen Yiwu seemed to be really drunk and unconscious, and he didn't know what was going on, Jiang Ming also wanted to bury this matter in his heart, maybe it was good for both of them, but he felt that it was very unfair to her, but fortunately, he was cowardly along the way, and he didn't show a word after all.
Gao Zhuxu looked at the two who were late, and didn't say anything, as usual taught the two of them archery and Yang Dun practice, after several days of non-stop exercise, Jiang Ming and Shen Yi's archery results were already considered to be middle and upper-class, and Yang Dun was also in the room, and he was able to line up with other soldiers.
"Alright, that's the end of your training. The reason why I didn't teach you how to line up is because you are always arranging your troops in battle, and you need to experience it yourself, and the same is true for mounted archery. Gao Zhuxu took the two of them to the camp tent, set a table of wine and meat, treated them like old friends, and said with a smile: "After these ten days of training, I don't know what you have gained?"
Jiang Ming glanced at Shen Yiwu on the side, and thought strangely in his heart: "The biggest gain is to cultivate a deep relationship with her!" Of course, this can't be said, he said obediently: "I already understand a little bit of General Gao's purpose, although my martial arts are good, but I lack more skills on the battlefield, archery and shields, and even potential formation methods, can expand my advantage several times, the general is good-hearted, Jiang Ming is very grateful." ”
Gao Zhuxu laughed a few times, and said kindly: "Don't pat me on the back, just follow Shen Yatou to call me in the future! Now tell me if you are willing to join the black-clothed tooth catcher, of course, whether you want to be friendly with you and me is okay." ”
In fact, joining the black-clothed tooth catcher did not hinder Jiang Ming from anything, but if he had this name, he would no longer be free.
"Uncle Gao, if I have something to achieve in the future, I will definitely join the black-clothed tooth catcher and protect the Nine Mansions!"
In the future, it will not be possible at this time.
Gao Zhuxu nodded slightly, such an answer was not unexpected, he smiled: "In this case, I will ask you one more thing, let Shen Yatou follow you, and you can't let people take her back to the Shen family for three years." ”
"Why three years?"
"In three years, you will be in status!"
Shen Yi still remembers that when he was young, his father was still alive, and he was in charge of the power of the clan, and the Shen family was at its peak. At that time, her father would affectionately call her "Little Sorrow", and whatever she requested, her father would do his best to complete it, and the ten-stringed piano, silk puppets, and golden bamboo boards she asked for were piled up in the room, and she did not perceive that those brilliant days would disappear one day.
"Eldest Miss, we have already booked a family affair for you, when you are eighteen years old and an adult, the young man of the palace family will marry you, with your family affairs, my Shen family will no longer be afraid of the covetousness of those small people, after all, the family has no more of your father......" The eldest elder once broke into her Yuewu Hall with the head of the whole clan, and his attitude was like interrogating a prisoner.
Yes, the father is no longer there. But I can't be under their control, and I should have my own life.
Shen Yi's eyes were red, and when he looked at Gao Zhuxu and Jiang Ming at this time, he felt unprecedented warmth and comfort, and many of the previous fetters had turned into dust in the firm eyes of the two.
