Chapter 161: Joining the Army
Recalling the previous competition, Gu Jiang still felt a little lucky, speaking of which, it was the first time that several people had officially fought with a master of the Spirit King realm.
Of course, I met the kind of parallel spirit king who didn't even have the soul melting skills in Guanghua City before, and the kind of parallel spirit king who didn't even have soul melting skills was another matter.
Although he retreated and was out of the limelight, Gu Jiang knew very well in his heart that there was indeed a lot of luck in this.
In terms of strength alone, there is still a big gap between the Spirit Sect and the Spirit King.
Before he started, Amber had a lot of contempt, and in the later fight with the fat girl, he was unable to use the soul melting skill, which gave the fat girl a chance, if he fought again, I am afraid it may not be the result.
While thinking, several people had already arrived outside the Iron Flame Cavalry General's Mansion.
Gu Jiang didn't want to waste time, so he directly took out the jade pendant that Kong Miao handed over to him, and the guards didn't dare to slack off when they saw the jade pendant, and immediately invited the four of them into the general's mansion.
Not long after, an old man who was about fifty years old and looked like a housekeeper greeted him, and because of the jade pendant, this housekeeper was very polite to Gu Jiang and the others.
"We have come to find General Kong Long, this jade pendant was given to me by his sister Kong Miao, and there is a letter from hers here. ”
Gu Jiang said what he meant directly, and the housekeeper showed a bitter expression after hearing this, and said a little helplessly: "It's really unfortunate that the little brother came, General Kong just went out." ”
"Out of the house?"
Gu Jiang frowned, agreed, thought for a while and said, "Then wait for him." ”
Seeing the strange expression on the butler's face, Gu Jiang couldn't help but ask, "Then when will he come back?"
"Probably...... Maybe half a year, maybe a year?"
Several people have black lines on their faces, how can they wait.
The housekeeper looked at the jade pendant and the letter again, and asked with some confusion: "This is a letter from the young lady, is there nothing urgent?"
"There's no urgency, but ......"
Gu Jiang didn't know how to answer, but the housekeeper took the idea and said: "That's it, I'll let people prepare horses now, and you will chase after you on the official road in the northwest direction when you leave the capital, and you should be able to catch up." ”
I missed it, I was afraid that I would have to wait for half a year, Gu Jiang thought about it and didn't say anything, so he did as the housekeeper said.
In the General's Mansion, the horses were quickly prepared, and although Gu Jiang and the others had not ridden horses much, with the help and coordination of several spirit beasts, they finally rode smoothly and chased towards the outside of the city.
According to the route introduced by the official steward, several people chased for a long time, and sure enough, they met the marching team of Hao Hao Tang Tang on the official road, and the whole team was tens of thousands of people, and when they looked at it from afar, they saw a big banner in front of the army waving in the wind, and a huge "hole" was written on it.
It should be that he didn't find a mistake, Gu Jiang finally felt at ease, and rode a few people to meet him from the side.
The army was not comparable to ordinary caravans, and immediately a soldier noticed the whereabouts of the four people, and soon a team of nearly 100 people greeted Gu Jiang.
Most of the soldiers were guarding Gu Jiang with swords and guns, looking a little unkind, Gu Jiang hurriedly explained: "I'm here to find General Kong, I want to see General Kong." ”
"Who are you?"
The little commander did not relax his vigilance at all, and asked coldly with a knife in his hand.
Gu Jiang was about to take out the letter, but when he saw him beside him, he ordered a commander to say: "The general did say before, let me keep an eye on the young people who come and go, you are waiting here, and I will go to report to the general." ”
After a short time, the commander followed Kong Long and rushed over from the Chinese army.
Seeing the general on horseback, Gu Jiang felt a burst of surprise.
"It turns out that this person is really Kong Long?"
Kong Miao's delicate appearance immediately resurfaced in his mind, which was really very different from the bearded general in front of him, and he couldn't find any resemblance at all.
couldn't help but be a little distracted, Gu Jiang didn't have time to say what he meant, he saw Kong Long look at a few people thoughtfully, and said to himself: "It's so fast, yes, yes, the guys are all with them, it seems that they have been prepared, but why is there one person missing." ”
Gu Jiang saw that Kong Long's expression was not as hostile as the previous soldiers, and was about to step forward to speak, but Kong Long waved his hand and said, "Needless to say, I know everything, you are moving fast enough, is this another daughter-in-law?"
Seeing the pot Gu Jiang was carrying, Kong Long couldn't help but smile and shouted, "Little brother, do you still have the pot with you?"
Gu Jiang was a little embarrassed, and hurriedly explained: "This is not a pot, this is a weapon." ”
When Kong Long heard this, he laughed and said, "Well said, the pot is in your hands, it is a weapon, I am wrong." ”
Gu Jiang was a little dazed.
Kong Long shouted to his side again: "Wang Shu, these people have been assigned to you, the newcomer, you have to take care of it." ”
Gu Jiang was already confused, and he didn't know what Kong Long meant, and was about to explain, when he saw a thirty-four-year-old middle-aged man who didn't know where to come out, bowed to Kong Long and said, "Don't worry, general, I'll go and settle them." ”
After speaking, he greeted Gu Jiang and the others again: "Don't be stunned, come with me." ”
Because he was still on the march, Kong Long didn't mean to stay for long, and led several commanders beside him to rush to the front, while Gu Jiang and the others followed behind the person named Wang Shu and waited at the back of the team.
"General Kong, I'm not here to be a soldier!"
Gu Jiang shouted again, but Kong Long had already walked away, and he didn't know if he heard it or not.
Wang Shu on the side heard it clearly, and scolded Gu Jiang: "What nonsense, young people really don't know how thick the sky is, no matter who they are, they all start as soldiers when they come to the army!"
Gu Jiang still wanted to explain something, but no one was too lazy to pay attention to them, the large army kept moving forward, and in desperation, Gu Jiang had no choice but to keep up with the footsteps of the team.
It was not early in the day, and it was not long before the setting sun was shining on the road, and an order came from ahead: "Set up camp", and everyone set up their tents very quickly but in an orderly manner.
Tens of thousands of people, but there was no chaos, and Gu Jiang was also infected by the orderliness in this army.
Seeing that everyone was busy, he didn't know what to do, and he didn't know what to help, and when he was hesitating, he saw that Wang Shu had taken a few sets of clothes from nowhere and stuffed them into Gu Jiang's hands and said, "Don't be stunned, you go to the tent over there and change these clothes first." ”。
The texture of the clothes was somewhat rough, but it was an out-and-out military uniform, Gu Jiang had never worn a military uniform, so it was inevitable that he was a little curious, so he simply followed Wang Shu's instructions and went into the tent to change his clothes.
Wearing a military uniform does feel different, and when they came out again, several people felt energetic, just looked at each other, and they all felt that the style of this military uniform was really a little strange, especially in front of the body in the middle of a big "fire" word.
