Chapter 368: Conscription
Time passed quickly, and a few months passed in a blink of an eye, Yi Xiaochuan stayed in Pei County, going in and out of Lu Mansion every day, and it seemed that he had no intention of leaving Pei County. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Although Xiahou Zheng hoped to set off to find Cui Wenzi as soon as possible, he was obviously not in a hurry, and he had to wait until the time for conscription to come and go over with the team, otherwise he might miss it, after all, he always felt that Cui Wenzi appeared there completely to wait for Yi Xiaochuan, so he had to wait patiently.
As soon as the sky was bright, Xiahou Zheng got up and practiced swords in the backyard, because the rent paid was enough, so the family rented the entire yard to Xiahou Zheng, and he moved to live in the brother's house next to him.
Half an hour passed, and Xiahou Zheng put away his sword and stood up, exhaling softly.
"Childe, how do you see my swordsmanship?" On the side, Chen Qiu also learned from Xiahou Zheng to collect his sword, and then ran over to ask Xiahou Zheng for advice.
Chen Qiu is the owner of this courtyard, since the first time he saw Xiahou practicing swords in the backyard, he cheekily asked for it, hoping to learn some martial arts.
His dream is to be a general and make meritorious contributions, but unfortunately, in this small place of Peixian, there is no place for him to learn martial arts.
Xiahou Zheng didn't want to teach him martial arts, nor did he want to accept apprentices, but just told him that he could watch from the sidelines when he practiced swords, and it was up to him how much he could learn.
Chen Qiu left with great gratitude, and since then he has come to this courtyard every morning to practice swords with Xiahou Zheng, and he has also taken care of Xiahou Zheng's diet.
Seeing that he was so knowledgeable, and that Xiahou Zheng had nothing to do, he would demonstrate some simple swordsmanship suitable for beginners like Chen Qiu in the last few minutes when he practiced swordsmanship every day, and then occasionally give him some pointers.
But Xiahou Zheng didn't like him to call himself master, he had no intention of accepting apprentices, just gave random guidance, so Chen Qiu kept calling him Gongzi.
"It's not bad, although I haven't comprehended the essence, but I already have a bit of artistic conception, and I can be regarded as a ten-man enemy in the army, if I practice in Japan, it is not difficult to become a general. Xiahou Zheng praised that Chen Qiu's qualifications were not very good, but he was very diligent, so his progress was not bad, and now he could barely touch the second-rate side.
continued to guide Chen Qiu for a while, Xiahou Zheng also lost interest, Chen Qiu also said goodbye and left, and then sent Xiahou Zheng's breakfast.
"The notice of conscription has been posted, and they will leave for Xianyang in two days, and I will prepare for it. Xia Hou was muttering about the information he had gotten and began to pack his things and prepare to leave.
Of course, in fact, there is nothing to clean up, most of his things are in the space ring, the only thing to bring is the horse, and he has to say hello to Chen Qiu's family, after all, they have been together for so long.
The next day, Xiahou was continuing to practice his sword, ready to tell Chen Qiu, and was ready to instruct him once.
After practicing the sword, Chen Qiu did not ask him for advice, but walked over with a small red clay pot, which he had already brought when he came, but he didn't dare to hinder Xiahou from practicing the sword because of this, so he put it aside.
"Childe. Chen Qiu came to Xiahou Zheng with a clay pot and respectfully handed him the things, "Thank you Gongzi for your teaching these days, the little one can't repay it, the little one knows that the son likes to drink tea, this is the top tea brought back by the little trustee from Xianyang, I hope the son will accept it with a smile." ”
"Well, I have a heart. Xiahou Zheng nodded and took the clay pot.
"I'm leaving tomorrow, probably won't go back to Peixian, if you have any questions, you can ask me now, and I will answer them for you one by one." ”
After giving Chen Qiu some advice, Xiahou Zheng admonished: "Learning is like sailing against the current, if you don't advance, you will retreat, and the same is true for swordsmanship, you need to keep practicing, otherwise you will slowly become unfamiliar." After I leave, you must practice diligently, do not slack off, and in the future you will definitely be able to think of your ideals and become a general. ”
Xiahou is encouraging Chen Qiu, it is not many years before the war in the Qin State, at that time, it is the era of military generals to show their skills, if Chen Qiu has the ability, he can naturally realize his dreams, and even in the period when there is no war, he can also seek a military general position in the Qin Dynasty.
"The little one must practice diligently and live up to the prestige of the son, but I don't know where the son is going?" Chen Qiu knew that Xiahou was strong in martial arts, so he naturally wanted to get more guidance, even if he moved away from Peixian.
"I'm going to Xianyang, and I heard that there will be a team of conscripts going to Xianyang tomorrow, so I happened to follow them. Xiahou Zheng didn't hide it, and replied directly.
"Going to Xianyang?" Chen Qiu shouted, quite out of shape, or ecstatic, "Childe, I am one of those people who will go to Xianyang tomorrow, I didn't expect Childe to also go to Xianyang, this is too coincidental." ”
Xiahou Zheng was also a little stunned, he just knew that he would go to Xianyang tomorrow, but he didn't look at who was going, and he didn't expect Chen Qiu to go too.
"Then it is just right, I will go with you, and show you a little more on the way, lest you die in servitude. Xiahou Zheng nodded, conscription is not a good errand, and if you go to the border, the mortality rate will be extremely high.

"Come here, come here, I'll count the number of people, and I'm ready to go, but I can't delay the hour. Liu Bang waved his arms at the city gate, beckoning those who were going to serve in the conscription.
"Liu Sanye. Chen Qiu went over to say hello.
"Now that everyone is here, let's go. Liu Bang said, suddenly, he saw a person, a person who had humiliated him came over and stood with Chen Qiu.
"Hey, who are you, I didn't see you on the list of conscripts, why did you sneak into the ranks of conscripts, did you want to do wrong?" Liu Bang shouted loudly, shouting as he walked towards Xiahou Zheng, attracting everyone's attention.
"Third Master Liu, Prince Xiahou is with me, and he wants to go to Xianyang with us......" Chen Qiu hurriedly caught up, he couldn't let Liu Bang find trouble with Xiahou Zheng.
"Get out of the way, how can anyone come in at will? If something happens, you will lose your head, can you afford this responsibility?" Liu Bang shook his hair, squinted his eyes, and said in a non-yin and non-yang manner.
"Liu Bang, do you want to find death?" Xiahou Zheng's fluttering sentence made Liu Bang shiver, and once again recalled the scene in Fan Hao's shop that day.
"Why, are you going to attack the conscription? I'm going to sue you for obstructing the conscription. Liu Bangse is very inward-looking, although he is afraid of Xiahou Zheng, but he must not lose face here, he is sure that no matter how arrogant Xiahou Zheng is, he will not dare to make a move against the conscription team, it is a capital crime.
"Big brother, big brother, don't be like this, this is my friend, give me a face, just let him join us. Yi Xiaochuan was naturally attracted by Liu Bang, seeing that it was Xiahou Zheng who had a conflict with Liu Bang, he hurriedly came over to stop their conflict, Xiahou Zheng was a murderer without blinking, and he still remembered the death of dozens of people that day, he was really afraid that he would kill Liu Bang at once.
Liu Bang glanced at Xiahou Zheng, saw that he was still staring at him, murderous, and swallowed his saliva, "Okay, brother, I'll give you this face, but it's really a mess, don't blame me for being businesslike." ”
Xiahou was sneering, it seemed that if something really happened, Liu Bang would definitely put the black cauldron on his head.
