Officer? This thing is really an esoteric science, and there is a way that the new official takes office with three fires, but Li Qi doesn't even know where these three fires are now.
Early morning.
"Richie, aren't you going to report to the guard Masi today?"
Mrs. Qin took good care of Li Qi, and stood in the front yard early in the morning to wait, but when she saw Li Qi coming out in this casual clothes, she couldn't help but feel a little curious.
Li Qi nodded and said, "Yes, I'm preparing to go now." β
"You're going to dress like this? Where's your uniform? Mrs. Qin exclaimed.
Li Qi said: "The official uniform is ugly, and the dress is quite awkward, but I brought the official seal and official documents, I believe there is no problem." Besides, I still have it. Hey. As he spoke, he took out the emperor's royal fan from his waist, fanned it a few times, and immediately shivered, and said, "Mom, this weather is really not suitable for fanning." β
Mrs. Qin glanced at him angrily and funny, and said, "You didn't even wear an official uniform when you took office, what kind of system is this?" β
"Madam, you don't know, I'm called close to the people. Okay, I'll go first, goodbye, ma'am. β
Li Qi knew that Mrs. Qin was an old-fashioned person, and he was afraid that she would continue to talk, so he hurriedly beckoned and ran out.
Mrs. Qin looked at Li Qi's back, sighed, and turned back.
Out of the gate, Ma Qiao was already waiting there, Li Qi is also a military attachΓ©, and if he doesn't bring this master by his side, what kind of system is it.
The two mounted their donkeys and set off.
Ma Qiao glanced at the donkey he was sitting on with a little disdain, shook his head, suddenly his eyes lit up, and said to Li Qi: "Master Li - now you should be called Deputy Marshal Ma, Deputy Marshal Ma, I heard that you can borrow a horse from the army to travel, so why do we still ride donkeys?" β
Ma Lieutenant Marshal?
Li Qi frowned and said, "I don't have the surname Ma, but you can call me Gao Fu Shuai, this name has been with me for a long time." β
"Rich and handsome? What does it mean? β
"What does Deputy Marshal Ma mean?"
"You don't even know that? The commander of the guard horse becomes the horse marshal, and you are the deputy commander, so you are naturally called the horse deputy marshal. β
Li Qi really didn't understand this, and said in surprise: "There is such a thing, you won't be blinded by me, right?" β
Ma Qiao affirmed: "I inquired about it yesterday, and it must be impossible to be wrong." β
"Vice Marshal Ma? It's still not as good as being rich and handsome, forget it, it's just a nickname anyway. β
Li Qi shook his head and said, "You just said that you want to ride a horse, but you don't know that I can't ride a horse, what are you borrowing a horse for?" β
"I can ride, if you don't ride, you can ride for me!"
Li Qi glared at him and said, "You are my subordinate, have you ever seen that chief riding a donkey and his subordinates riding a horse?" β
"It doesn't seem like so."
"Isn't that it?"
Li Qi snorted and said, "You don't think about it." By the way, what did you inquire about yesterday? β
Ma Qiao nodded and said, "Inquire well, your guard horse has a teaching ground in Beicheng." β
"Okay, let's go there first."
"Why don't you go to the guard first? Where should you go first? β
Li Qi smiled disdainfully: "Why am I going anywhere, aren't I just a few petty officials, sooner or later I will be trampled underneath, and judging from my dress, can't you see that I am a pro-people faction, so let's go and see my soldiers first?" β
He used to be a man who was directly with Wang Haogang, and he was really not interested in these five or six officials.
Ma Qiao nodded thoughtfully, shook his head again, and said, "No, Ma Shuai is one level higher than you." β
"This is only a temporary matter, my brother can't be such a five-grade petty official for the rest of his life."
The two walked for about half an hour and came to an open place, but they saw a teaching ground surrounded by a wooden fence, and when they stood outside, they couldn't see anyone inside, but there were two soldiers with spears standing at the door, but they were not in a very good mental state.
The autumn wind swept by, blowing up a few withered yellow leaves in the field, which was very depressed.
"Wow. It's so deserted. β
Li Qi scratched his head and asked towards Ma Qiao, "Are we in the wrong place?" Isn't this teaching ground used for training, why can't you even see the shadow of a bird? β
Ma Qiao shook his head, not very sure: "Probably not, I specially asked a soldier yesterday, this is indeed the teaching ground where the guard horse is in charge of the forbidden army, but when I came yesterday, it was like this." β
"That's right, are they doing some secret training, let's go and see first."
Li Qi sighed, and got off the donkey with the horse bridge to the gate.
"Who are you?"
One of the soldiers asked, yawning.
Li Qi rubbed his hands together and sneered, "Oh, we're here to find someone?" β
"Who's looking for?"
"Find."
Li Qi suddenly took out two small hanging copper coins from his arms, and said with a smile: "Two soldiers, I'm here to find Zhang-Da Niu." β
The two guards were staring at the two small hanging copper coins, and they didn't pay attention to what Li Qi was saying, and soon, the copper coins in Li Qi's hands were put into the sleeves of these two soldiers, and one said: "Count you lucky, the head of the sect just left, you can go in quickly, but don't stay in it for too long." β
"Thank you, thank you."
Li Qi nodded and smiled, thinking to himself, my God, this Nima is a church or a brothel, anyone can enter, the Great Song Dynasty is in danger!
Li Qi just stepped in, stepped back again, and asked with a smile: "I'm sorry, where is this person?" β
"You're here for the first time, aren't you?"
"Yes, yes, yes."
A soldier pointed to the big room in the upper right and said, "It's all inside." β
"Thank you, thank you."
Li Qi and Ma Qiao gestured, and the two walked in.
But seeing that weeds have begun to grow in some places in the clearing, it must have been unattended for a long time, and none of the row of arrow targets not far away are complete, either a corner is missing here, or a large piece is missing there.
When Li Qi saw this qiΔ, his heart was cold.
Ma Qiao was puzzled: "Deputy Marshal Ma, why didn't you just show them the official document just now, why did you spend this unjust money." β
Li Qi sighed and said, "I just wanted to try, I didn't expect them to really let me in, forget it, I've come in, and I said what are these things, let's go." β
The big house was made of wood, very shabby, and from the outside it looked like a public cafeteria.
"Hey, Niu Da, did your sow give birth?"
"Come on, it's only going to be these two days."
"Brother Xu, you went hunting in the mountains, did you catch anything good?"
"Don't mention it, it's a trip for nothing."
"Alright, alright, don't talk about it, hurry up and get to work."
As soon as Li Qi walked to the door, he heard a noise from inside, and when he listened carefully, he broke out in a cold sweat, if it weren't for the man's voice, he really thought it was a group of women inside.
Since the door was open, the two of them walked in directly, but as soon as they took a step into the door, they suddenly jumped out at the same time.
"What do you see?"
Both asked at the same time.
"Uh, not a hallucination?"
Li Qi wiped the sweat on his face, swallowed his saliva, and then walked in, and the scene inside immediately frightened him, only to see that there were fifty or sixty men inside, standing and sitting, some even sitting directly on the ground, surrounded by threes and threes, some making wooden dolls, some carving seals, some making straw shoes and bamboo mats, some making pianos, some making lanterns, and some making bows
This Nima is a military camp or a workshop!
Li Qi's back was already soaked, and the beads of sweat on his forehead dripped down his cheeks, which was too terrifying.
"You're new here?"
One of the older men, dressed in older clothes, asked Richie, who was supposed to be a little steward.
Li Qi nodded and said, "Yes." β
The man said, "It's strange, I didn't hear of a new person coming today." He muttered a few words, but didn't care so much, and shouted, "What's your name?" β
Li Qi said: "My name is Gao Shuai, and this is my eldest brother, Gao Fu." β
The man nodded, "What will you do?" β
Ma Qiao said proudly: "I am proficient in all eighteen martial arts. β
When everyone heard this, they burst out laughing.
Ma Qiao said angrily: "What are you laughing at? β
Another man said: "If you were really so powerful, you wouldn't have come here, so you can blow hard." β
Li Qi glanced at Ma Qiao, told him not to say more, and then said to the man, "We will carve." β
"That's good, I'm too busy here." The man who was carving said.
The person in charge seemed to be busy, and he didn't want to talk nonsense with Li Qi, so he said to the man: "Niu Da, these two will teach you." As he spoke, he picked up the half-finished bow and continued to work.
The rest of the people also worked with their heads down.
Niu Da summoned Li Qi and the others to his table, and took out two samples for them to follow.
Li Qi is a good hand at carving, and the cow glanced at him and said, "Brother Gao, your craftsmanship is quite good." β
"General, average."
Li Qi smiled and asked in a low voice, "Brother Niu, don't we practice?" β
"Drill?"
Niu Da sighed and said, "We haven't practiced for a long time. β
Li Qi frowned and said, "Why is that?" β
"To earn food."
"No, I've heard that the salaries of our forbidden army are quite high."
Niu Da glanced at him strangely and said, "That was a long time ago, now we can't even make a mouth for a month's salary, and there are several people in my family, if I don't do more work, the whole family will starve to death." β
Wow! Is it so exaggerated?
Li Qi was puzzled: "But I heard that our salary is not bad now, you won't deliberately scare the little brother, right?" β
Niu Da snorted angrily: "I'm not scary." As he spoke, he suddenly whispered: "The salary is a lot, but it is only a little in our hands, and now that the army is on the march, we are even more miserable." β
Is this money all tm greedy for money?
Li Qi sighed secretly, and said, "Then our forbidden army guarding horses is like this?" β
"That's not it, our Henghai belongs to the lower army, the salary is the lowest, the Dragon Guard is our elite, they practice every day, and the salary is much higher than ours, but the most powerful forbidden army in our Beijing division is still in the front of the palace, and the salary of the front division of the palace can be used as the salary of one of the Japanese soldiers." The man was talking with envy.
Long Weijun, this name is a bit bullish, if they are like this, then I will simply resign, and the eggs will be broken. The former division of the temple? The head of the forbidden army?
Li Qi nodded, and asked again: "Then who will we hand over these things to later?" β
Niu Da shook his head and said, "I don't know about this, anyway, I just have to take the money." β
This Nimana is a soldier, a general worker?
Li Qi sighed heavily, his heart and eggs shattered.
