Because everyone was carrying their hands on their shoulders, and it was freezing cold, Wendao took the fat head and a team of 40 porters, and on the way, he kept encountering some unknown bandits to watch and harass, and returned to the cottage two days later than the scheduled return time. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

When I returned to the village, I saw that the atmosphere that had already been in full swing when I left seemed to be gone.

"Childe, there seems to be something wrong with the stockade!"

The fat head suddenly became nervous, because he found that those mountain people, even if they were not very close to them on weekdays, had never slammed the door as soon as they turned around as they did today, as if they were so angry.

Damn, are these people blind dogs, dozens of people have brought back a rare treasure like a small mountain, and they don't even come to greet and cheer!

Wen Dao glanced at it, and unconsciously smiled and quipped:

"It seems that people are poor and rich are really two heavens, dead fat, empty-handed, you are a dead pig who is not afraid of boiling water, and now you become a rich man with a weak heart? What are you afraid of, there is really something, we can walk into the village so swaggeringly! ”

The fat head thought about it too, and immediately stroked the bulging belly and smirked.

Perhaps in response to Wendao's words, the group walked for less than a few minutes before they saw a string of figures stumbling towards them. At the front, it is the young and strong Li Hongliang and Luo Esheng. And Shi Xiaohu, who should have been the strongest, may have only fallen above the third place because he was too big. Later, there are the Miao brothers and Liu Qiu.

Others also gave up, Liu Qiu ran panting, staring at Wen Dao and the crowd around him who were tired like dead dogs, no one thought that he squatted on the ground, and suddenly hugged his head and cried loudly:

"Father-in-law, son-in-law...... Woo, you, you...... It's back...... If you don't come back, I, and I will die......"

Wen Dao was startled, and hurriedly stepped forward and said, "What's the matter?" ”

Everyone looked at him, their eyes were red, but they all shook their heads and said nothing. Seeing this, Li Hongliang immediately stepped out of the crowd and said in a proper manner:

"The villain meets Childe, now it's okay, Childe is finally back, and we have the backbone!"

After speaking, he glanced back at Liu Qiu, and then said:

"Master, oh no, it's Mr. Liu who has been working hard for the food in the village all day these days, and no one can say anything about the pain in his heart, so he must be happy when he sees the son at first glance, right?"

Wendao nodded, and looked at Liu Qiu carefully, he always felt as if there was something else in his heart, but this was obviously not the place to speak, so he deliberately laughed loudly:

"I think the sky is falling, haha, isn't it just a copycat food panic? You all pricked up your ears for Lao Tzu to listen, Lao Tzu not only has a lot of good things. Food, too, is abundant, as long as you have strength! ”

This sentence, which was comparable to a panacea, immediately brought these guys to life, scrambling to get something. The Miao brothers didn't know what to do, the two brothers simply came up and ran away with the knife, and said that they were willing to be a son for a lifetime, and in the end, if it wasn't for the threat of the knife not to give them food, it is estimated that he would really be "paraded on the street" like this.

Back to the original straw mat shed in the back mountain, of course, this straw mat shed is no longer the straw mat shed, and has now been transformed into a semi-militarized fortress.

After unloading the goods, Wendao did not dare to let these 40 "porters" go back for the time being. Besides, people are also looking at the treasures that are still on their shoulders and hands just now, and they have worked hard all the way, and they haven't gotten anything yet, so where can they go back. Moreover, considering that such manpower might be needed soon, they were temporarily placed in a row of newly built simple houses outside the stone wall.

However, it was already the first barracks for nearly a hundred candidates, and in order to avoid the leakage of information, Wendao had no choice but to restrict their free movement. Of course, they are as tired as dogs, and they probably should fall asleep when they get to the place, so they don't have to worry too much.

Immediately afterwards, in the face of the "henchmen" who were also looking at him with blank eyes, this time Wendao was very simple, directly yawned and waved his hand to admonish, then found a corner casually, fell down on the bed made of hay, and fell asleep after a while.

"These things are important, and it's best not to leave people for a moment. Anyway, Lao Tzu and the dead fat man have already got them back, and now they are all handed over to you, how to discuss it yourself, and we will talk about big things until we sleep......"

When the fat head heard this, he didn't say a word, and went directly into the grass, faster than the knife, and snored loudly in the blink of an eye.

Everyone was stunned for a while, and then slowly looked at Liu Qiu together.

Liu Qiu complained in his heart, son, son, didn't you hear everyone's stomach gurgling? Anyway, you can also send a message for us to find something to eat and fill our stomachs first!

Staring at the mountain-like big bags, Liu Qiu didn't know how long he looked at it, and finally turned his head and gritted his teeth and said:

"The four of us, Li Hongliang and Luo Esheng, you two have to be counted, all on duty at night, one hour per person. You all go to sleep first, and I will keep the first hour, and then in turn. ”

Everyone shook their heads, and only after a while did they reluctantly disperse.

When Li Hongliang left, he hesitated, and suddenly approached and whispered:

"Sir, Childe must have forgotten something from exhaustion. Fighting all the way from the county town into the mountains, Childe's ability, magic and attitude towards people, I really have a heart for Childe, so sir-"

Hmph, Liu Qiu's face collapsed suddenly, and he replied coldly:

"Enough, you've only been with Childe for a few days, and it's not your turn here to tell me how Childe is, sleep well!"

Li Hongliang was stunned, then silently clenched his fists and found a corner to sleep.

The next day, Wen Dao's eyes opened, and his first reaction was to turn his head to look at the treasures he had brought back last night. Fortunately, a figure was patrolling back and forth at the mouth of the cave.

got up and came to the front, but when he saw him, he hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Childe." ”

Well, Wendao nodded, glanced down at his watch and said:

"It's hard work, you are working in shifts of six, that's two hours per person, and it's not too much of a crime. I'm here to watch, you go wash your face, and wake everyone up. ”

Soon, Li Hongliang rushed over with Liu Qiu and others.

"Childe," because of Li Hongliang, Liu Qiu took the lead this time.

Seeing Liu Qiu's pair of bloodshot eyes, Wen Dao remembered yesterday's scene, so he stepped forward to pat him, and then smiled at everyone:

"The so-called soldiers and horses go ahead before they move the grain and grass, brethren, these things that you kept watch all night last night are actually all kinds of baggage. It is precisely because of it that I dare to officially announce a major event to you and to the entire cottage today-"

After speaking, he consciously stopped, his eyes swept over the faces of Liu Qiu, Li Hongliang and others one by one, and said solemnly word by word:

"From now on, the first company of the Huguang Division of the Celestial Empire Army was officially formed, and Liu Qiu listened to the order-"

Liu Qiu shuddered, thinking of the magical scenes that had happened since he met Gongzi, and thinking of what army, regiment, and even a few days earlier, he just chattered in Gongzi's mouth for a few days, and it turned out to be true in a few days. So, he and his brethren will really have a dependency on him who will no longer starve, wander around, and be beaten everywhere?

Seeing that Liu Qiu was suddenly stupid, Fat Toutuo and Shi Xiaohu were all anxious: Grandma's, Heavenly Dynasty Master, it seems that Gongzi is starting to move seriously, what is this dead thing thinking?

Bang on the ground, Shi Xiaohu, who had a big waist and a round waist, secretly kicked hard, Liu Qiu stumbled, and then soberly said:

"Oh son, please forgive your sins, if you lose your mind in the next moment, you will be punished."

Wen Dao's expression did not change at all, but he repeated: "Liu Qiu listens to the order!" ”

Liu Qiu didn't dare to hesitate any longer this time, bowed down and hugged his fists and said, "Liu Qiu is here." ”

"Appoint you as the director of the preparatory department of the Huguang Division of the Celestial Empire Army, and temporarily act as the Celestial Empire Army's documents, approvals, mediation, production and other related affairs."

"Order," Liu Qiu accepted the position suspiciously, and finally mustered up the courage to ask:

"Dare to ask Childe, what kind of official is the director of the preparatory department, and how many official residences are there?"

Wen Dao's eyes flashed, and he said quietly:

"The Celestial Empire Army does not talk about any quality, but only on the level of contribution and merit. You are the first official in my Celestial Dynasty Army to be officially appointed and to be registered immediately, not to mention the grade, you are the only one for this honor! ”

Liu Qiu blinked, and suddenly sweat rained down, and he pounced on the ground and said:

"Thank you Gongzi for your love, the enemy will be ruined from now on, born as a hero of the Celestial Empire, and died as a ghost of the Celestial Empire Army, and will defend the side of the Celestial Empire Army forever!"

"Well said," Wen Dao nodded heavily, and then looked at the others:

"You, I won't name them one by one, from now on, all of them will participate in a two-week regular military training as candidate recruits of the first company of the Huguang Division of the Celestial Empire Army. Two weeks later, a new recruit selection was held, and those who passed the selection were officially selected into the first company. ”

The words landed, and the audience suddenly fell silent. Because almost no one believed that Gongzi had just opened a huge surprise for them, but in the blink of an eye, he slapped the vast majority of people into the endless darkness - any person here came with Liu Qiu at the same time, why did he choose him alone to be directly crowned official, but others still went to the mud to drill high and climb low, tired and tired, and in the end, they may not be guaranteed to join the first company of the recruit, this, this is too unfair, right?

However, before anyone could react, the voice of the knife sounded slowly:

"Don't you want to know who this chief instructor is?"

"Who," the crowd suddenly understood.

"Of course it's Lao Tzu and me," Wen Dao said expressionlessly:

"The first company is the first unit of our Celestial Empire Army, without my own hands and training, you don't want to think about it, do you dare to let this unit be called the first company of the Celestial Empire Army......"
