Chapter 5 Join the Barracks
Begging for a living in Si Cheng...... In the past half a month, I have already figured out the situation in this world.
This is a magical world, the biggest force in this world is the Holy See, even the royal family has to give them a few points, the biggest in the Holy See is the Pope, there are three cardinal archbishops below, responsible for all things in the Holy See, below the cardinal archbishop, there are a total of seven bishops, they are all dressed in black robes, these seven bishops jointly manage the seven knights, every time they send troops or something, they need seven of them to vote to do it, as for the emir that day, it is a head of the knights, in addition to these, there are also some priests, believers or something, these strengths are relatively weak。
In the Holy Judgment Country, many people want to enter and join the Knights, even if it is just a small soldier, however, even if it is a small soldier, it must reach level 20, although this level of twenty does not seem high, but the cultivation methods, spells, materials, etc., are tightly controlled by the Holy See and the royal family, and it is too difficult for ordinary people to cultivate, however, there seems to be an opportunity recently, the armies of the Holy See and the royal family are expanding, and many people have signed up.
At this time, another group of people came, and when I saw this, I hurriedly crawled over, crying and shouting, "Uncle, okay!"
"This stinks for food...... Forget it. ”
"Ding!" a silver coin fell in front of me, and I quickly picked it up.
"Thank you, uncle!
I was holding this silver coin and my hands were shaking with excitement, a silver coin!
Just as I was happy, two young men in their twenties walked by.
"Hey, boy, don't hide, we've all seen it, hurry up, collect the rent!" one of the thinner young men held out his hand to me.
It's not the first time for these two young people, every time I have a little gain, these two people will come over, the thin one is called Pulu, and the fat one is called Puli, they are brothers.
I didn't speak, but held the coin tightly, and Pooley sneered when he saw this, stretched out his hand, grabbed my hair and said, "Boy, this street belongs to our brothers, and if you ask for food here, you have to pay rent, understand?"
"Where...... How can you grab money for food!" I shouted.
"Oops! I'm getting tough, I'm not as good as before!" Purley finished and kicked me down.
"Looks like I'm going to have to teach you a lesson today. ”
After saying that, the two of them began to punch and kick me, but I did not resist, and clung to the silver coin.
Half an hour later, the two stopped, and Pulley gasped and said, "Is this kid dead?" ”
After listening to this, Pu Luo came over, squatted down, looked at it, sneered and said, "Big brother, don't worry, this kid is cheap and not dead." ”
At this time, my eyes were red, my teeth were clenched, and my hands were curled up in my arms.
"Okay, you kid is awesome, I'm tired of fighting today, you wait for tomorrow. After Puli finished speaking, he turned to leave, and Proo stood up, spat at me, and left.
After they left, I crawled little by little into the alley, which was full of garbage, and the sun could not shine, I leaned against the foul-smelling garbage heap, stretched out my hand, and without looking at my own injuries, took out the silver coin, looked at it, and smiled.
In the past half a month of begging, I have endured all kinds of humiliation, and now I finally understand that the weak are the same in any world, and if they want to get human rights and respect, they can only climb up!
As I said before, the army is expanding, and people like me, if they want to rise in this world, joining the army is the wisest choice, but the corruption of the officers here is too serious, and the price is clearly marked, and if you want to join, you must have a silver coin, and the reason why I would rather die than give them two is because of this...... This silver coin is the capital of Lao Tzu's turnaround!
"When I get up, you all must die!" I clenched my silver coin, my eyes bloodshot and my teeth gritted like a wild beast.
In the afternoon, I felt almost finished, so I went to apply, and when I got there, the queue was already very long, and I came to the back of the crowd and began to line up, when suddenly I heard a noise at the front of the line: "What do you mean? If you don't give money, you won't let me join? Do you still have the royal law? Do you still have the royal family in your eyes? Do you still have the spirit of chivalry!!"
I was also a good man, and I stretched out my head and looked ahead, and saw a young man of seventeen or eighteen years old, dressed in sackcloth, standing there, and although the young man was dressed in shabby, he could not stop the heroic spirit, and many of the little girls present poked their heads to look there.
"Are you sick? Pay it all, that's all you say? Do you have any money, get out of here if you don't have money!" shouted the soldier in charge of recruitment.
The young man seemed to be even more angry when he heard this: "Why? If you don't have money, you won't be allowed to join? I remember, the spirit of a knight is not like this, is it? Are you still a knight like this? Are you still called a knight!"
I sighed, shook my head, and thought, "It's a pity that this looks like a fool."
Sure enough, as soon as he finished speaking, two soldiers immediately came over, held him down, and forcibly dragged him aside.
"You ...... You've gone too far! You've been corrupted by money, wake up! You're riding ......."
"Gagged and beaten!"
I smiled wryly, retracted my head, and then I heard the screams of a young man beside me.
"Why is this guy stupider than me?" I laughed helplessly.
The line was long, and it was almost evening, when it was my turn, I came to the table where I was enlisted, smiled, and said, "Hello, I want to ......"
"Do you know the rules?" Before I could finish, the soldier interrupted me.
"Yes. I pulled out a silver coin and placed it on the table.
"Let's go inside. The soldier said impatiently.
It's very convenient, money is really everything!
In this way, I joined the Ying Zheng army, and when I came to the barracks, I found that in the middle of the barracks, many people had gathered, and they seemed to be waiting for something.
At this moment, a thief-eyed man came to me.
"Brother, my name is Balai, and I will be comrades-in-arms in the future, so give it to my friends!"
"My name is ...... Chen Ze!" After I finished speaking, I stretched out my hand, Balai smiled, and the two of us shook hands.
"Brother, do you know what you're going to do in a moment?" said Balai, smirking wickedly.
"I don't know. ”
Balai looked around, saw that no one was looking this way, and then pulled me aside and whispered: "I want to test my talent in a while, it is a magic weapon, you put your hand on, one to twenty, come out with a number, the higher the number, the better your talent is, and then they will be divided into upper, middle and lower groups according to our talents, if you can be divided into the upper group, you can hear the lectures of good instructors, as well as pills, and ...... Anyway, you'll get a ton of resources!"
"Uh...... And then?" I don't know what he's going to do.
Balai smiled, then took out a small black pill and said, "Brother, this thing can help you improve your talent in a short time...... Two silver coins!"
It turned out to be selling strong pills~ I thought there was someone in him.
"I don't need this, you can find someone else. ”
"Hey, brother, don't be like this, you are so confident......? Talented?" Balai still didn't seem to give up.
I waved my hand and said, "I'm sorry, I'm confident in my talent." ”
"Brother, what if, you say just in case!"
"I don't have any money. ”
"Excuse me. ”
