Chapter 157: Turmoil in the Barracks (I)
After a short time, the three of them followed Chu Feiyan to the foot of the Forgotten Worry Mountain in the suburbs, and spent another hour climbing to the top of the mountain.
Along the way, Li Qiu kept complaining: "I said Brother Lin, have you arrived? I haven't seen anything to eat, so I'm almost tired and lying down."
Liu Hu didn't care: "It's tiring to climb a hill like this, how to fight in the future, be quick."
"I'm just curious, what's there to eat in this barren mountain?"
Liu Ying secretly looked at Chu Feiyan all the way, always feeling that he was very different, and the most important thing was that he was handsome, with a few freckles on his face blushing from time to time.
"It's here!" Chu Feiyan pointed to a hut in front of him, feeling a lot of emotion in his heart. Two years ago, he had come down from here, parting from his master, King's Landing, and he was in high spirits, and nine months earlier, when he had quietly descended from here, and had said goodbye to the night and the others, and his heart was full of anger.
No matter what the outcome of this war will be, he can say with a clear conscience: he owes nothing to the Stygian Water.
There was a little dry food, a few jars of sake and marinated bacon in the hut, all of which had been prepared in the dark night. Chu Feiyan beckoned a few people to start a fire, and moved the food outside the house, and soon went to hunt two hares and picked some wild fruits back.
After a short time, the aroma of barbecue came to the nose, and the mellow sake was really tempting, and Li Qiu, who tasted the wine for the first time, choked on his cough, but he couldn't bear to waste it, and praised it while drinking.
Liu Hu also stuffed the rabbit meat in his mouth and muttered: "Brother Lin, your skills are really amazing!"
Liu Ying tore a piece of rabbit leg meat, ate it carefully, and the more she ate, the more fragrant she became, and soon forgot to be reserved, and her mouth was full of oil, which made Li Qiu laugh.
A few people were full of food and drink, and seeing that there was still some time before the meeting, they chatted around the campfire.
It's actually interesting to talk about the meeting of several people. Chu Feiyan had been advancing all the way to the northwest since leaving the Wolf Wasteland, day and night, and in order to avoid the blockade of Jing Beifeng's army, it took a lot of effort to come to the periphery of Jinghua City.
At that time, his strength was about to be exhausted, and it was difficult to continue, so he used his last strength to climb over the city. When he swept down from the air, it happened that Li Qiu was holding a slingshot to shoot at the wild goose flying south, and it happened to hit Chu Feiyan's head impartially, and in an instant, his qi and blood stagnated and he fell.
Li Qiu was startled when he suddenly saw a figure rolling in front of him, and then saw that his face was pale and his breath was weak, so he hurriedly asked Liu Hu's brothers and sisters to help, and the three of them worked together to carry him home to take care of him, but fortunately, it didn't take long for Chu Feiyan to recover his basic mobility.
Next, Li Qiu's words almost made Chu Feiyan angry: "Brother, what do you want to commit suicide by jumping off the building?"
"Yes, since you are not afraid of death, it is better to go with a few of us to enlist in the army", Liu Hu also hurriedly persuaded.
It would be a big joke if people knew that the dignified "Holy King" would be knocked to the ground with a small slingshot. Chu Feiyan smiled, and had no intention of arguing with them, just when he learned the news of the conscription in Jinghua City from their mouths, he said in his heart that maybe this was the destination of Heaven's will. So I readily agreed to apply with them.
Li Qiu took the lead in asking: "Brother Lin, how did you know about this place? I always feel that you don't look like an ordinary person, now that you think about the strictness of the city tower, how can ordinary people go up?"
The other two siblings immediately looked at it intently, equally curious.
Chu Feiyan raised the sake in the bowl and shook it: "Why don't you tell me why you want to join the army first, how?"
Li Qiu pursed his lips: "What is there to ask, the enemy has come over, and we can't run, what can we do if we don't join the army?"
Liu Hu also nodded: "Grandma is old, we as grandsons should protect her, let's not talk big, just fight for our relatives." ”
"Yes!", Liu Ying secretly tasted a sip of sake, her cheeks crimson.
After hearing this, a flash of light flashed in Chu Feiyan's eyes, and then he raised the bowl in his hand: "Lin Hong salutes everyone, I have saved everyone and toasted everyone's courage!"
A few people followed the example of the heroes in the story, drank it all, choked and coughed, and then laughed heartily.
"Okay, Brother Lin can talk about you now."
Since he was rescued by Gu Ximeng, he has never drunk a drop of wine, and now although he no longer has scruples, it is no longer the taste of the year. Chu Feiyan smiled and said deliberately seriously: "I, I killed Jing Beifeng's son and caused a big disaster, I can't hide from it, so I just committed suicide." ”
When the three of them heard this, they were stunned in place. After a moment, he burst out laughing, leaning back in laughter.
"I thought you were a silent and boring guy, but I didn't think you could tell jokes."
"Why?
"Look, you see he's still pretending!", Li Qiu pointed at Chu Feiyan and laughed so much that tears came out: "I look at you, you must have wanted to escape from the city, but you were discovered by the guards, so you had no choice but to jump off the building and escape." ”
Chu Feiyan shook his head and sighed, "Sure enough, I was discovered by you."
Liu Hu also said: "If you are the descendant of a certain general, we can still believe it, but who killed Jing Xiaotian? That is the biggest traitor in our dark water, a demon-like figure, it is said that you don't blink an eye when you kill people, what are you pretending to be a big traitor?"
Chu Feiyan smiled but did not speak.
Liu Ying was a little drunk, looked at Chu Feiyan and said, "I heard that person is also very young and handsome."
Li Qiu was immediately unhappy, and shouted: "Xiaoying, is it more handsome than your brother Li?"
Liu Hu unceremoniously rewarded him with a brain meltdown: "Don't look at your virtue." ”
Li Qiu covered his head and was unconvinced: "Hmph, even if you are more handsome than me, you are not as good as me to Xiaoying."
Chu Feiyan really liked these teenagers, and seeing them playing around and being infected by this cheerful and relaxed atmosphere, he was very worried for a while, nodded and said, "Well, no wonder I saw a loach lying next to Xiaoying's window in the middle of the night last night." ”
"What!"
The brothers and sisters of the Liu family suddenly went berserk, and then there was a fat beating. Li Qiu could only secretly complain, he couldn't imagine that guy was so insidious, and vowed in his heart that he would get this one back sooner or later.
Before they knew it, the sky was getting dark, and seeing that they were about to miss the time when the recruits would gather, the four of them hurried down the mountain.
Although they were not late, the four of them were the last to arrive at the barracks, and it was obvious that the captain on the stage glanced at them coldly.
"You guys stand at the front for me!"
Chu Feiyan was naturally calm, and the other three stood at the front of the queue in a panic like frightened rabbits.
Captain Wu Fang was originally dissatisfied because he was arranged to bring recruits, the big war was imminent, and he only had two days to train these recruits, in his eyes, these recruits were all burdens, and it was good if he didn't pee his pants if he was really scared on the battlefield.
At this moment, seeing the oily mouths of several people, coupled with the smell of alcohol coming from their bodies, they were even more angry.
"Yo, are you here for a trip to war, and you dare to drink when you eat with a mouth full of oil? What are you on the battlefield? That's going to kill people! When you see those bloody corpses, I think you'll even have to vomit out jaundice!"
Wu Fang's scolding resounded throughout the barracks, and Liu Ying's little face turned pale when he was reprimanded, imagining those terrible pictures, and he already felt a little sick in his stomach.
Liu Hu stood up straight: "Report to the chief, we know that we are wrong!"
Wu Fang glared at him, his anger subsided slightly, but Li Qiu muttered in a low voice: "I didn't say that you are not allowed to drink wine and eat meat, and play such a big official."
He thought that he was speaking very quietly, but he knew that Wu Fang had the cultivation of the Xuanling Realm after all, and his ears and eyes were much sharper than ordinary people, and he could hear them clearly.
"How dare you talk back!"
Wu Fang was immediately furious, rushed off the stage with an arrow step, and slapped Li Qiu fiercely on his chest. As soon as he was angry, his heart was broken, where could ordinary people withstand his full blow, but it was too late to stop at this time, so he struggled to move his palm to the right.
Who knew that Liu Ying wanted to come over to intercede, just under his palm!
"Xiaoying!" Li Qiu and Liu Hu exclaimed in unison.
