The young man's heart suddenly developed hatred for these considerate women. It was decided that the money borrowed from the jackal and the lantern would not be returned. In fact, he was not prepared to pay it back, but now the reason is more sufficient.

He braved the wind and walked to the palace, and after handing his temporary pass at the gate of the palace, he was taken to the hall on the first floor to wait.

It wasn't time for the evening class when he was given a short notice. He didn't know what to do at this time.

The palace was frequent, and after waiting for more than ten minutes, five more people came to him, but they were the centurions and the officials of the Government Council who sat beside him yesterday.

The six people sat with each other looking at each other for a few minutes, and Lin Ji came down from the upper floor and said to a few people: "There is a precedence in hearing the Tao, and there is a specialization in the art industry." Threesome, there must be my teacher. It means that people can learn from people who are lower than themselves in many cases. That's all for it, I'm still busy. In a word, the five of you will come over at this point every day in the future and learn from him. He is younger than you, and he is only a labor prisoner in a coal mine, but he has only been in the second year of junior high school. Literacy and arithmetic are above you. ”

After Lin Ji said this, he turned around to leave, and suddenly remembered something and froze again: "He can't teach well, you beat him." If they don't learn well, you can punish them. Teach yourself what to weigh yourself. Half a year later, they will be assessed with you. Your request is eighty points. They are sixty. Got it? ”

The six of them, all of whom had more or less military training, stood up and shouted in unison: "Understood! ”

Lin Ji turned around and left in a hurry, leaving the six people looking at each other.

In fact, they can understand every word of Lin Ji. But they didn't understand it in their hearts.

The five members of Jilu have also taken classes with the army or the literacy class in the compound in the past few years, and they know some words to some extent, and there is no problem with addition and subtraction. But it certainly doesn't reach the level of the second year of junior high school. Several of them are also seizing various opportunities to further their studies. However, because it is a fragmented time, the progress is very slow. It is said that there is only one mushroom picker in the whole city after learning it for a few years in fragmentary time, and it is said that there is only one mushroom picker in the whole city. After all, there aren't many people who pick mushrooms.

But with their status as centurions, they learned from a labor prisoner in the second year of junior high school...... Isn't that a bit weird?

Yixin didn't understand Lin Ji's intention to arrange it like this. He thinks it's unknown whether he can pass the test in half a year, and now he has to bring five guys who can't even write even words, and he still needs sixty points?

This is obviously difficult, okay?

Embarrassed in his heart, Yixin led the younger brother's nature to explode, and said to the five people with a smile: "My name is Yixin, and I made a mistake before and was arrested by the king." You guys...... Are you married? ”

"It's finished." The five nodded one after another.

After the deer was forced to descend, the original leaders were sent to the killer whales except for the mushroom picking. Now these people have grown up in the past few years, although they are not very old, the oldest is only twenty-one and twelve. But they have already become relatives.

And their wives are all as beautiful as flowers, and they are second to none beauties. Speaking of which, their marriage is still dominated by forest traces. Because someone wanted to stuff people around Lin Ji before, they were promised to them by Lin Ji.

Children ask them about other things or they don't know how to talk about marriage, but they are happy to bring it up.

Yixin's eyes flashed with a dangerous light, and his heart was secretly ruthless, and he said, "Why don't we repeat the lesson that the king taught yesterday." I'll teach you most of the words and arithmetic involved in it, and I'll check it tomorrow when you come. If you don't qualify, can I punish you? ”

The five of them felt a little chill in their hearts, as if they felt a huge malice.

In the time that followed, several people would go to the palace every day at about four o'clock in the afternoon to attend classes, with one boy speaking and five young men listening. It's a sight to behold in the halls where people come and go frequently.

Sometimes the five people do not meet the assessment standards, and the teenager will stand aside and watch the five people do push-ups or squats in a row.

In the past few days, people who came in and out were curious, and they would take a look or stop to ask, and Lin Ruins would occasionally come over to see for a minute or two. Several of the people who were punished would also have flushed faces. After a few days, however, everyone got used to the scene, and the people who came in and out turned a blind eye to them. The face of the punished person will not change.

At six o'clock in the afternoon, it is dinner time at the palace. The six of them will also get a large pot of rice bowls. It was the time the six of them enjoyed the most. Not to mention the delicious food in the palace, sometimes you will be told that a certain dish is the work of the king. It was even happier than eating dragon meat.

The meal is sure to be finished. However, the dishes cooked by the king have a collection value like cultural relics, and it would be a pity to eat them like this. Therefore, several people will find a way to put the food in a jar or lunch box and take it back with them, give it to their families to taste or go out to invite people to buy people's hearts. After a few people secretly did this twice, they found that everyone was like this, so they hid it from each other, but invisibly established some trust.

On this day, the five people of the fast deer blocked their sight and asked Yixin to load the dishes, and inadvertently talked about a topic: "Today, the people in our team almost got into trouble with the people of the horse team again." ”

"How?" Several people were attracted to attention.

There were elephant cavalry, deer cavalry, and now horse cavalry has been added to the army.

The centurions of the deer were all working inside the deer cavalry. Even the two people who work in the Government Council are under the Deer Breeding Bureau. It can be said that they are one with the bighorn deer.

After Lin Rui brought back donkeys and horses and other livestock from the north, horses were not valued less than elephants and deer, and they already felt a crisis. At this time, when I heard about the deer cavalry and horse cavalry, I couldn't help but care.

"Almost again?" Yixin packed the meat dishes, put the small jar into the leather bag he carried, and asked with the bowl with the rest of the broth bibimbap.

A few people got along for a few days, although they could see that Yixin was sincere in teaching things, but there was still hatred in their hearts, so in addition to covering each other and stealing vegetables, there was usually no communication between the two sides. Yixin's question will naturally be ignored, and several people still talk to themselves:

"Those horsemen and cavalry don't let us go anywhere, and they always feel that they will replace us at any time, which is really a bit annoying."

"It is not surprising that the king took great pains to fetch horses from the north, but it would be too much to say that he would replace the deer. Our sacred deer, cough, bighorn deer is almost the same size as them, and their running speed is also comparable, how can it be said that they have replaced us? ”

"They also said they wanted to take the elephant for them. In the future, there may be only one of the three types of cavalry. ”

"Ha, it's a big breath."

"Today we almost fought them because their forage was slower than ours, and we saw that they had more corn than we did."

"More corn than we do? That's ......"

Speaking of the back, several people lowered their voices, a little worried, more angry.

"Horses are better than deer, you can compare." Yixin saw that he was left out in the cold, and couldn't help but interject.

He thought of the story that the white horse of the forest trail was said to have run 300 kilometers with the forest trail in half a day, and felt that the bighorn deer would be defeated. Seeing that they ignore themselves, I want them to lose hard.

A few people from the fast deer turned their heads, looked at Yixin with a smile and said, "I heard that the black jackal centurion who is familiar with you has been transferred to the horse team, why don't you talk to him and let him transfer a few horses, and we will compare?" ”

The transfer of the black jackal to the horse cavalry is only a matter of the past few days, not in the name of taking office, but studying. It was not uncommon for the commanders of several cavalry units to transfer to each other to learn from each other, which allowed them to become more familiar with their own army.

Yixin looked at a few guys with the same smile on their faces, and wondered if he had been dug up, but he still stubbornly said: "Okay, I'll tell him at night, there must be no problem." Why don't you put it in four days? It was a day off. ”

A few people from the fast deer said happily: "Okay, it's all up to your arrangement." ”

"Then we will choose ten horsemen each and win around the city. The first of the five riders, whoever has the most wins, how about it? Yixin then gave his own suggestion.

"Okay." A few of the sick deer people agreed.

"Is there a color head?" Yixin is not willing to pay in vain.

"What do you want?" The people were slightly stunned, but they didn't expect this guy to be unambiguous at all.

"If you lose, I'll give you all your food for the next month." Yixin looked at their rice bowls.

Although he has only one mother in the family, and she is a cook herself, she can't eat much. But since he started bringing the food back, the number of guests in his house has gradually increased. It was a sight he had never seen before. There are a few men who have just died of their wives, and they are also close to him, intentionally or unintentionally. Naturally, he understood the meaning.

His mother was not very old, and he was the only child. If you find a reliable man, he should have no problem going out. He can also be more reassured. With these dishes, it is natural to attract more customers and choose a better stepfather.

"Okay." The five deer men gritted their teeth and continued, "If we lose. Punish...... Can't do it here. ”

Yixin felt that this request was not excessive, so he agreed. Naturally, both sides are happy.

A small bet of twenty horsemen was not a big deal, and for the sake of his brother's face, the jackal agreed and promised to find ten of the best knights and ten fastest horses to participate.

On the second day, the black jackal and the horse cavalry team applied for horses, and the general of the cavalry team, Fu Wolf, ordered to pick men and horses from all the army.

This supportive attitude of the wolf immediately caused a sensation in the city. Not to be outdone, the general of the deer cavalry, Yellow Leopard Tail, ordered the search for deer in all the deer farms around the Quanchao forest, and the selection of riders among all the deer cavalry.

The matter was reported to Po Tu, who was busy and ordered the track outside the city to be closed one day in advance, prohibiting people from going under the outer walls of the city without permission. Immediately reported the matter to Lin Ji.

Lin Ji casually ordered the Elders' House to send someone to be the referee, and let the police station send personnel to maintain order at the scene.

At this point, it has been completely out of the control of Yixin and a few young people. The things that even Lin Ji knew naturally caused a sensation in the whole city of Chaolin City.

It was a day off, so many people called their friends to watch, and the story naturally spread more and more. So much so that on the day of the start of the race, many people rushed to Chaolin from the surrounding towns overnight, just to see the twenty horsemen compete for succession.

Outside the castle is a moat on three sides, and one side is facing the Gou Lake. At this time, a thick surface of ice has formed. On the day of the race, the weather was fine, and the snow stopped and the wind stopped. Countless people poured onto the city walls. If you can't get up the city wall, you go to the stone bridge outside the city or on the other side of the moat.

The police were outnumbered, so 2,000 people were dispatched outside the city to maintain order.

When the time reached eight o'clock, Lin Rui went down to the city tower surrounded by everyone. With him are Hu Yi'er, Xiaobai, and White Horse, who are holding children.

The following scenario is basically ready. Lin Ji was a little puzzled and asked, "Since it is a red deer battle in the whole city, why didn't anyone take the white horse away?" ”

Qian Mian whispered: "I heard that the wolf secretly ordered that mounts above the centurion cannot participate. ”

Lin Ji smiled: "My uncle, it's really thick and fine. ”

The fastest animal in the city is none other than the white horse. Lin Rui got a lot of good horses from the grassland, and distributed them to the nobles and high-ranking officials, these horses were almost all hunted from the north of Yinshan, and the quality was not low, and they should be more powerful than the bighorn deer that everyone could calculate. If you really compare these horses to bighorn deer, it would be too bullying. This is also not in line with the original intention of the high-level acquiescence to this competition.

The clerk of the House of Elders went up to the tower and reported that everything was ready, and the game could start, and asked Lin Ji for instructions.

Lin Ji said: "There are so many people here today, if you only run one lap, it will be unpleasant to watch." Why don't you just run two laps? In addition, I see that the riders below are relatively thin, and I am afraid that they will not be able to show the level of the mounts, so let them add 30 pounds of equipment to each person. If you pass it on again, those who enter the top five will be promoted to one level. ”

The clerk was ordered, and after going down the tower, he passed the word to several colleagues, and several of them rode on their cattle and ran to the other three city gates, and together they passed the word in several other directions.

As the words continued, there was a roaring discussion from the crowd, and the official was promoted to one level, and this lottery was too big. How many people can be killed on the battlefield in exchange for such a promotion? You only need to run two laps here.

But the people in the army all understand the meaning of the forest tracks. It is only sixteen kilometers around the city, a distance that is difficult to reflect the physical limit of the mount. Thirty-two kilometers is about the same. After adding thirty catties of equipment, it is basically the weight of the light cavalry, and the results of running can also be used as a reference in the army.

Half an hour later, when everything was ready, a drum sounded under the city tower, and twenty horsemen rushed out quickly. The crowd cheered them on.

Yixin chased people on the city wall for a while, and finally stopped after the rider entered the corner of the city wall.

Naturally, he didn't expect that the bet he made a few days ago would become what it is today. He was also annoyed to hear that the winner could be promoted to the next level. Knowing this, he would have asked the jackal to give him a place as a player anyway. Although he said that he rarely rides, the winning rate is very low. But it's much easier than going to the battlefield and fighting hard.

Several former classmates squeezed behind him, and asked him with envy: "Yixin, I heard that you initiated this competition?" ”

"I heard that the centurions are now taught every day in the palace?"

"I heard that your family has food from the king every day?"

Everyone asked a lot of questions, and some people asked if it was true, whether it was true, and Yixin never tired of listening to it.

"Yixin, I want to ask you, why didn't you go to be a rider?" A fair-looking female classmate squeezed in front of her and asked timidly.

This happened to ask Yixin the most upset, and when he heard this voice, he didn't think of the pretty "his father" that called the black jackal that night, and he only felt sick in his heart.

"Go away." The young man brutally pushed away the white female classmate in front of him and squeezed to the other side of the city wall. At this moment, he just wants to see the winner and lose, and he doesn't want to pay attention to the girl.
