Until all the guards in the dark red flying fish robes left, Fang Xie still didn't completely relax. After arriving in this world, the first thing he did to put the theories of his previous life into practice in this life was not to trust anyone easily. Especially, a stranger who suddenly appears in front of you.

The person who was called Mr. Zhuo by Meng Wudi and the others seemed to know what Fang Xie was thinking, and said with a smile: "Human nature, after all, it is difficult for anyone to believe that the person who suddenly appeared in front of them, especially since this person is from the same place as those who are chasing and killing him. ”

He said to Fang Jie's heart, the key is that Fang Xie didn't say a word!

"Mind reading?"

Fang Xie couldn't help but ask.

"Mind reading?"

Mr. Zhuo repeated, and then couldn't help but nod and said, "That's not a bad name, but I've always called this ability a voyeur before." ”

Fang Jiexin said, "Are you an endoscope or an external scope?

But when he thought of this, he immediately stopped, lest this guy who could read people's hearts see through his thoughts again. He couldn't help but ask Mr. Zhuo, "Is your ability a talent or a cultivation?" ”

"There are many people in this world who have cultivated to a high level, but their abilities are just relatively good. But those with different talents have strange abilities. The world is very big, and there are many inconspicuous people who may have amazing talents hidden in their bodies...... Psychic? How did you come up with such a word? ”

Mr. Zhuo didn't do research on these four words, but smiled and said, "But if I don't want to read it, then I can't read anything." But you know, it's always addictive, and it took me ten years to control that desire. ”

"If it were me, I'm afraid that if I hadn't made a mistake and gone to prison, I would have lost my life."

Fang Xie sighed, but Mr. Zhuo's face changed slightly, he slowly walked towards the clear spring, squatted down and took a sip with his hand, and sighed: "If I can have such an awareness at your age, I'm afraid I won't take so many detours." It's like I've been through this kind of thing a few times. As for jail time...... I knew I should control my desire to peep into people's hearts, and I spent the last ten years in prison to do this. ”

He smiled and said, "It's a strong, cold kind of prison. ”

Fang Xie was stunned, but he didn't know what to say.

"Let's go."

Mr. Zhuo stood up and said, "Now that I have taken you after, it is time to return to the imperial capital. I haven't been out and around for many years, and after leaving the prison, I coveted the vastness of the imperial capital, and I almost lost myself when I left that majestic city. Ten years of purgatory, I can't let my desires send and receive freely, and I'm ashamed. ”

"If only someone could send and receive their desires freely......"

Fang Xie turned over and jumped onto the red horse, shook his head and said, "Then he must be a saint." ”

This time, Mr. Zhuo was stunned, then nodded and said, "That's true." ”

Fang Xie made a gesture of invitation and asked, "You and I ride together?" ”

Mr. Zhuo smiled and shook his head, "I have my own mount, but it's different from a good horse like you. You can't go far in a day, and your temper is not small. If it refuses to go, I can't do anything about it. So if you go slower after a while...... Don't be in a hurry. ”

Fang Xie couldn't help but guess: "It's a donkey?" ”

Mr. Zhuo couldn't help laughing: "You are an interesting young man, and the three of you are interesting people. This trip is not in vain just because I know the three of you. ”

As if by magic, he pulled a flute out of his old, grayish grey robe, and put it to his lips and blew it softly. A short time later, a chirp came from the dense forest on the other side. Very special, Fang Xie couldn't hear what kind of animal it was at the first time, but it was definitely not a donkey.

When that thing slowly walked out of the forest, Fang Xie and the three couldn't help but be taken aback.

This Mr. Zhuo's mount turned out to be a pig.

Wild boar.

A wild boar that looks big and has a very violent beauty. The two fangs in the pig's mouth are two feet long, and they are as sharp as the standard horizontal knives of the Great Sui. The boar looked like it was bigger than the old ox, and it walked slowly, but every step was majestic.

It's like the king of the mountains and forests, patrolling his territory.

"It's time to go back."

Mr. Zhuo said to the wild boar.

And the wild boar didn't seem to bother to pay attention to him, but was a little interested in the other party to solve the three of them. And at the moment when this huge wild boar appeared, even the horses of Beiliao, who were accustomed to seeing wild beasts, trembled slightly with fright. Fang Xie sat down on the red horse better, but he looked a little restless as he stepped back and forth. The other two snow-white war horses were so frightened that they leaned together and didn't dare to move.

The three horses were frightened, but the boar had no sense of accomplishment. It snorted twice through its nose, as if to tell the three horses that it had no interest in them. Especially with his chin raised, his arrogant expression was so clear that he was human.

Mr. Zhuo smiled wryly and said, "I said just now, Xiaohua is a little disobedient. ”

He clumsily climbed onto the boar's back, and then naturally grabbed a strand of the boar's mane. When a person rides a pig, even if it is a wild boar, it is a little awkward.

Fang Xie suddenly thought, is it more comfortable to ride a pig than to ride a horse?

"What do you call it?"

The big dog asked, looking at the huge boar warily.

Mr. Zhuo smiled proudly, and then replied seriously: "Xiaohua, the full name is Zhu Xiaohua." ”

……

……

In addition to Fang Jie's red horse, he dared to walk not too far away from Zhu Xiaohua, and the remaining two war horses chose to follow honestly behind, and the pig went faster, and they walked faster. If the pig walked slowly, no matter how the big dog and Mu Xiaoyi urged them, they would not dare to go over.

Fang Xie couldn't help but secretly praise in his heart, and said in his heart that this pig flower is the existence of Wang Bazhi's qi leakage. It doesn't go, and other animals don't dare to go. It walks, and other animals dare not go.

"Mr. Zhuo, you just mentioned that Your Majesty also knows about me?"

After leaving the woods and turning to the official road, he really couldn't hold back his curiosity and asked. In fact, Mr. Zhuo said a lot of things in the forest, and the one that made Fang Xie care the most was that His Majesty already knew about this young man...... For Fang Jie, who is bent on gaining a foothold in the imperial capital, this sentence is undoubtedly very attractive.

"Yes, Your Majesty knows you."

Mr. Zhuo replied lightly.

"Where do you know?"

Fang Xie asked without giving up.

"I don't know, but I just heard a few words from Lord Zhenfu, Your Majesty seems to have a lot of appreciation for you, as if you took the exam of the Martial Arts Academy after twenty-one battles in Fan Gu? You must know that if you have made ten military merits, you are qualified to recommend to the Ministry of War, and then select the most suitable candidate after layers of selection. If you have made 21 meritorious deeds before you report to the Ministry of War, you don't need to be selected for the second time at all, and you should be able to directly get the approval of the Ministry of War to take the examination. ”

"Huh?"

Fang Xie was stunned for a moment, and then scolded Li Xiaozong, you bastard.

Mr. Zhuo asked, "Li Xiaozong?" Fan Gubian army tooth general? ”

Fang Xie nodded hatefully and said, "That guy told me that if I want to take the exam of the Martial Arts Academy, I must accumulate at least twenty-one military merits!" ”

Mr. Zhuo was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help laughing: "I thought that you could withstand the temptation and not participate in the screening, but directly double the credit in exchange for the opportunity to directly enter the college for the exam." ”

Fang Xie smiled bitterly and asked again, "What else did Your Majesty mention about me?" ”

"Didn't mention anything else......"

Speaking of this, Mr. Zhuo kindly reminded: "Don't think that Your Majesty mentioned your name once in the imperial study, your participation in the examination of the Martial Arts Academy is a sure thing. Your Majesty has a lot of opportunities every day, and every day he has to ask how huge and complicated the things to deal with are. I'm afraid that I will forget your name the next day, and maybe I won't remember it again. ”

Fang Xie sighed and said, "Li Wanji has worked hard. ”

Mr. Zhuo asked, "What do you mean?" ”

Fang Xie naturally refused to explain, smiled and changed the topic and asked, "Mr. Zhuo, do you think I can be admitted to the Martial Arts Academy?" ”

"Why bother with the gate of the Martial Arts Academy?"

Mr. Zhuo said: "Since you are from a military background, even if you can't be admitted to the martial arts academy, you still have to go back to the army." With your ability to make twenty-one military exploits at such a young age, and the opportunity for His Majesty to mention your name once in the imperial study, even if you fail the exam, will it be difficult to walk in the future? ”

"Didn't you say that Your Majesty might forget it the next day?"

"Your Majesty can forget ......"

Mr. Zhuo looked at Fang Xie and said seriously: "But do you think that the adults in the court dare to forget?" Even if Your Majesty casually mentions your name in the Imperial Study, the officials on the military department will definitely take you very seriously. Because they will fear that if Your Majesty mentions you again, they will do nothing. Of course, if you don't remind Your Majesty of your ability from time to time, then sooner or later you will be lost to all living beings, and you may not know how to die. ”

Every now and then reminds His Majesty of you.

Fang Xie kept this sentence firmly in mind.

"Kao Wuke, you don't have an advantage."

Mr. Zhuo said suddenly.

Fang Xie nodded, he knew that he couldn't cultivate, it was indeed the most fatal flaw for a place like the Yanwu Academy to select generals in the army.

"Then think about it, what other skills do you have?"

Mr. Zhuo stretched out his fingers and counted them one by one: "You don't have an advantage in martial arts, so do you have anything very good at in Taoxue, the art of war, celestial phenomena, geography, people's hearts, and arithmetic?" ”

Fang Xie originally thought that he had a foundation in his previous life, and arithmetic should not be a problem, but when he thought of the great Sui and the number of strange people, he lost his confidence. So he thought about it and shook his head.

A trace of disappointment flashed in Mr. Zhuo's eyes, but he still did not give up: "Even in Danqing, it is okay to have attainments in calligraphy, and the staff in the army must also make drawings during the march and campaign, and also record the itinerary of the army and the war and other things." If you draw well and write beautifully, you also have the opportunity to become a staff member, and becoming a staff member is also a good way out. ”

Fang Xie thought about it carefully, and then shook his head again. I still thought of it before, the Great Sui is too big, and those who take the exam are the elite of the elite, and they have some basic skills in painting, but they are barely getting started. As for the word...... It's neatly written with his name, but it's really not pretty.

"You're not good at it, so what do you think the Martial Arts Academy wants you to do? And what are you doing in the martial arts academy? ”

Mr. Zhuo asked in surprise.

"For ......"

Fang Xie didn't continue, but looked at Mr. Zhuo and asked seriously, "You haven't snooped on my mind now, have you?" ”

Mr. Zhuo glanced at him and said, "That's not an easy thing, you need to concentrate, do you think I'm watching you anytime and anywhere?" ”

Fang Xie immediately breathed a sigh of relief when he received this reply, then sat up straight on the red horse, looked at Mr. Zhuo with a solemn expression, and said in a serious tone and a loud voice: "I want to be admitted to the Martial Arts Academy in order to increase my ability, so that I can better serve Your Majesty and the Great Sui!" As a soldier, it is natural to always remember your duties! ”

Mr. Zhuo paused, then sighed and said, "You look down on me too much." ”

Fang Xie was puzzled: "No, I have a lot of respect for you." ”

Mr. Zhuo looked at Fang Xie with disdain and said, "Do you think that as long as I don't keep my thoughts, I can't hear how false what you just said is?" ”

He looked at Fang Xie carefully and sighed: "It's a pity that the Yanwu Academy is not a Qinglou and does not accept the little boy...... Your skin, tender flesh, and eyebrows are good. Famous princes, many people like little boys more than little ladies. ”

Fang Xie didn't speak.

Mr. Zhuo said angrily: "Don't scold!" ”
