Jian Yong was also direct, promised to join the militia group, and directly packed up, and his family didn't have much money, so he wrapped a few shabby bamboo slips, brought a few sets of change of clothes, and went out directly.

As soon as he came out, he summoned to the corner of the wall, called a young man, and told him that before he came back, his family lived with a random teenager, and then he left with Liu Tao.

"That young man ......," Liu Tao asked curiously.

"The little beggars around will not come back in a short time anyway, and the house is empty, so it's always good to have someone to help take care of it." Jian Yong replied casually.

In these days, children often have few human rights to speak of. Not to mention that the parents are not there, even if they are, if they suffer to this extent, they will basically sell their children. If you sell it, you may have to redeem yourself one day, and if you don't sell it, you will starve to death.

Therefore, those who can be beggars must first be hard enough, and second, they are ugly or have definite defects. Let's just say that the young man just now, his left leg is seriously deformed, he is also a little rickety, and there is a big birthmark on his face, it is estimated that other people dislike it, so he can only be a beggar.

"Ah San doesn't look very good, but it's rare to be like this, and his mind is still very simple and kind. Such a child, if you can take care of it, you still have to take care of it after all. Jian Yong added.

"Since it's called Ah San, don't you have two older brothers at home?" Liu Tao also asked casually.

"Oh, it seems that there were before, but they all died......" Jian Yong also replied casually, and the answer was a little heavy.

"It's not easy for anyone in this world, otherwise the Taiping Sect wouldn't have rebelled." Liu Tao shook his head.

"Since Deran has sympathy for the Taiping Sect, why do you still send troops to recruit them?" Jian Yong asked playfully.

"There are no innocents in the war, and as a member of the Han family, I should protect the integrity of the Han Dynasty. Anyone who rebels, no matter how pitiful, will be my enemy, and that's just a matter of pure position. Liu Tao shook his head, "Besides, I can pity the Taiping Sect, but once the Taiping Sect succeeds, when they come to me for liquidation, will they remember that I pitied them?" ”

He is a clan member of the Han family, and it is estimated that the second group of people who have been liquidated are probably their clan relatives. As for the first batch of people, there is no need to ask, they must be royalty and relatives.

"Then if I join the militia group, what will I do? Cangshan's deputy? Jian Yong simply changed the subject.

"Cangshan is a military advisor, and his status in the army is second only to me. I initially plan to appoint you as the chief secretary to assist Canshan in handling the affairs of the military and Chinese, and also to be responsible for commanding the heavy troops. Liu Tao replied, "There are a little few civilians, so you two have to take care of them more." ”

"Don't say it, as if you're not a literati......" Jian Yong scolded back very unceremoniously, even if it wasn't long ago that this guy respectfully handed over Liu Tao's 'lord'.

"I can't abandon literature and martial arts?" Liu Tao directly played a scoundrel.

"Okay, you're the boss, you can say anything!" Jian Yong had no choice, so he could only admit it obediently. But he was muttering in his heart: De Ran has really changed, he has matured a lot, and he has become a lot of scoundrels. I just don't know how far this militia can go.

Back at the barracks, he introduced Jian Yong to a few people, and then announced his position. When Lu Yan heard this, he was indeed relieved, he had been busy in the past two days, and he never knew that there were so many things to take care of in the army, and he was really too busy.

It's not that I didn't think about pulling someone over to be a strong man, no, as soon as my eyes looked over, someone was immediately alert, and then slipped away directly under the pretext. Yes, Liu Tao slipped away, and he knew very well that he had to find a better excuse, otherwise he would be arrested at any time......

I found Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, and let the two have a look, not to mention the rest, I really want to see the duel between the two.

"Brother, why did you think of making a comparison between us?" Zhang Fei directly agreed, and Guan Yu had no choice but to ask.

"Two factors, one is to look at the two of you, the other is more powerful; The second factor is that after winning that battle before, I learned two more spells. It's a pity that there is only one that can be done now, and I want to see the effect. Liu Tao immediately explained that as for his ability to spell, he also told Guan Yu in private.

The latter didn't expect that this person in front of him was actually an immortal disciple, but when he saw Liu Tao performing his healing technique, he was still amazed. After that, the mood suddenly became a lot more excited, after all, following the immortal disciples, the achievement is destined to not be low, the key is that this healing technique is really powerful, which can save him a lot of worries.

"What new spell?" When Zhang Fei heard this, he immediately came over curiously.

"I don't know, I'll know if I try it, and I can only try one ...... It's only been a year since I got the Immortal Family Inheritance, and I can't help it if I don't have enough mana. Liu Tao suddenly showed a helpless expression.

"Third brother, let's have a fight!" Zhang Fei looked directly at Guan Yu.

"Good!" Guan Yu also wanted to take a look, deducting other spells other than healing.

So the two of them each held a wooden knife, directly cleared an area of the school grounds, and then posed with each other.

"Let's play a game first, and take a quarter of an hour as a calculation, and the winner will be determined within a quarter of an hour; Then I'll cast the spell and see how it goes! Seeing that the two of them were ready, Liu Tao immediately reminded.

The two said they understood, and Liu Tao announced the start, and the two cautiously moved towards each other, while looking for an opportunity. Zhang Fei was young and vigorous in the end, and soon launched an attack, Guan Yu immediately counterattacked, the wooden knives of the two sides kept colliding, making a 'bumper' sound, but in the end, the wooden knife was broken, and the two sides were separated as the end, at present, at least the situation of not losing or winning.

"Need a break?" Liu Tao asked.

"No, you don't!" The two replied at the same time, and then took another wooden knife, just now it was almost like warming up, and they didn't do their best at all, but the texture of this wooden knife was really not good, and it broke in three or two clicks.

The two sides put on a posture again, and Liu Tao planned to cast a spell, but realized a problem: In this case, who is on his side and who is on the enemy's side?!

According to the concept of 'Time Manipulation', when cast on your own army, the novice level can gain +7 initiative, and when you cast it on the enemy, the effect of -7 initiative will appear.

With 100 as the highest value of initiative, 7 points does not feel obvious, and 15 points of initiative at the master level is much more obvious.

Having said that, he still cast one on Guan Yu, and as the mana dropped by 5 points, an invisible energy began to envelop Guan Yu. The 'Time Manipulation' effect doesn't feel obvious, but it has the advantage of having very little mana consumed. At this stage, you can only use a single target as the casting target, and you can cast it in a range after unlocking the 'Source Force Understanding I.', and the amount is increased without increasing the price!

When he was shrouded in energy, Guan Yu didn't feel anything, but he soon noticed something abnormal, that is, Zhang Fei's body shape seemed to slow down a bit, at least in his opinion. It's very slow, it's not just a discussion, and I can't feel it, and some flaws that were not obvious seem to have become slightly obvious.

So he quickly counterattacked, and in less than three moves, he actually forced Zhang Fei to surrender.

"Third brother, did you deliberately let me just now?" Zhang Fei was suddenly aggrieved, "This shot is actually much faster than before!" ”

"Haha, I still think you're slow...... Eh, could this be the effect of a spell? Guan Yu immediately realized the key.
