Chapter Sixty-Eight: The Selection of the Town (Collection and Seeking a Wave)

Maya 424-17-08 pm)

In the small town of Corba in the southern part of the Teotican Empire, it was as peaceful as ever, with the hawkers shouting and shouting and the streets bustling with people, while in the town square, the mayor of the town and the priest Link were discussing with the Tbek messenger about 'the question of conscription and change'.

"Okay, let's do it! I'll send someone to the square to post a notice later, in fact, we have already prepared for training nine days ago, as long as the selection time is shortened, there will be a knockout round tomorrow, as long as we arrange more gathering venues, we can speed up the game, I think it should be completed in two or three days", after listening to the messenger, the mayor of the town, Koerba. Chaubert said.

"Mayor Town, you see that the messenger came in a hurry a few days ago, and left in a hurry, so that he didn't even have a comfortable meal, why don't you take him to pick up the wind and wash the dust first, anyway, I want to go back by the way, I'll just stick this document in the square." Link smiled at the messenger.

Gobut's eyes flashed, and he said with a smile: "Brother Lin still understands me, since I got the documents at the Imperial Academy of Literature in the morning, because this matter is too important, the people who were dispatched did not dare to stop for a moment to report around, and now my stomach is indeed a little hungry, please forgive me."

"Oh, look at my memory, blame me"! Chaubert said guiltily.

"By the way, Lord Courier, can I ask you a question?" Link asked.

"Say it!" Gobut replied.

"Why the sudden early conscription? Has something big happened to the Empire? Link asked.

"Oh, this! I only know that this western expedition failed, with less than 2,000 troops to break the enemy nearly 5,000, causing heavy losses on both sides of the enemy and us, Na Zheng sacrifice thought that his wrong decision caused serious casualties among the soldiers, and decided to give up the power to the Great Sage Sacrifice Xiao Czech to take over the post of national teacher. At the same time, conscription was carried out in advance to make up for the losses caused by this western expedition. You can take a look at the specific volume in this volume," Gobett said, handing over a volume of paper in his hand.

Shawbert and Link were stunned, Nazheng Sacrifice will give up power? How could there be no reaction to that battle 20 years ago? Sudden behavior makes people...

"Let's go, the meal was just ordered, and we'll almost get it ready," Shawbert said quickly, coming back to his senses.

"Then I'll leave it to you," Gobut replied again.

"Don't worry! No problem, go ahead! Link said, waving.

"Heh, give up? What do you want to do? Link muttered to himself as he closed the door and walked towards the town square not far to the east.

Walk along the east side of the square across the bridge, walk straight across the lawn, go down the first junction, and in the fence of the second house on the west side, you can see three people training hard.

"Left and right, defend against offense and defense", when Tang Yuxuan's fist was about to approach the blue bird's nose, he stopped abruptly.

"You kid can't let me win once?" The Blue Bird sat on the ground and grumbled. At this time, the blue bird was wearing a leather vest and shorts, which seemed a little dark to Tang Yuxuan.

"You're already very good," Tang Yuxuan said.

"It's not equal to zero yet".

"Brother Blue Bird, his moves are not very good, it's not like a cat or a tiger, you just need to remember that your purpose is to hit the weakness of the other party's body, so what kind of theory is it compared to what he said! Moves! It's coming much faster," Xiaohu said on the side.

"Xiaohu's words are reasonable, I love to listen", the blue bird turned around and took Xiaohu.

"Brother, you see that you are sweating all over your body, don't get the little tiger dirty", Zifeng, who was standing on the side, snatched the little tiger and said with care.

"Oh my God, what did you think of him?" Tang Yuxuan complained.

"I want you to take care of it," the two said in unison.

"Alas! Sure enough, it's brother and sister working together! He sighed again.

"By the way, Yu Xuan, how are your injuries?" Zifeng asked with concern, a gray and white close-fitting short-sleeved shirt, which was even taller; The long hair is tied back at will, and the strands that float in front of the forehead from time to time are even more natural.

"If you make up like this every day, what disease can't be cured? You see...", Tang Yuxuan said a somersault.

"You kid can control the arts", Blue Bird looked at him stunned, and Zifeng was no exception.

"What kind of harnessing technique, this is just a kind of physical training", Xiaohu smiled.

"How can this be done, aren't you afraid of hitting your head?" Bluejay was surprised.

"As long as you practice, nothing is impossible. By the way, how is the sacrificial technique you practiced, it doesn't matter if I go or not, after all, I don't know what I want to do, you go to the Imperial Academy to study is your wish, you can't miss it! Tang Yuxuan said again.

"Haha, you're still worried about yourself! My sacrificial technique is very good, and there is no problem in going to the imperial capital", Zifeng said with a grin.

"I'm back", at this time, Link's voice came from outside the courtyard.

"Dad, you're back", Zifeng asked quickly.

"Well, I'm back, how are you practicing, I have something important to tell you," Link said.

All three of them stopped what they were doing, waiting for Link to follow...

So Link gave a brief account of the message he had brought to the messenger Gobut in the afternoon...

"What, Nazheng sacrifice to give up power?" , Blue Bird and Zifeng exclaimed at the same time.

"Hmmm! This expedition to the west was led by the Great Sage of Xiao Clan, but it was commanded by Hu Qun to fight the whole army, I think if it was really Chief Xiao who took the position, I think there would be a large-scale reform of the existing policy, and because of the serious losses in this expedition, you have to seize the opportunity, especially Yu Xuan", Link said with some seriousness.

"By the way, Dad, how do you know so clearly?" Bluebird asked.

"I naturally have my channel"!

"So the official selection will start tomorrow?" Zifeng asked again.

"Well, this announcement is very hasty, it is estimated that it will be over in one to two days, and it will be a great test of your patience and stamina, so you must be prepared for a protracted battle tomorrow", Link continued.

"By the way, Uncle Lin, how did you train the infantry after the selection? It won't be a draw bow and practice physical strength, right? Tang Yuxuan wondered.

"I don't know this very well, anyway, as long as you enter there, you will be treated inhumanely, and you will often go to the most dangerous missions, so you are called the path of death by the soldiers, but it is often the source of the commander of the army, such as Hu Qun this time is from the Imperial Academy", Link patiently explained.

"Huh? It's actually the place where the commander of the army is out, hehe, it seems that the next moment will be me", hearing this, I couldn't help but think.

"The Road to Death? That's not very dangerous, Dad, then you still let Yu Xuan go? Zifeng said a little anxiously.

"Because I'm optimistic about him," Link said meaningfully as he looked at Tang Yuxuan.

"An-la! Brother Xuan's life is hard! Otherwise, he would have died long ago after fleeing all the way", Xiaohu didn't care.

I said that............

(Morning of 17/09/424 Maya)

Eight large bamboo platforms with a height of two meters have been built in the square of Corba Town, and in front of this platform, there is already a lot of people...

Good morning, everyone, I'm Gomez, the commentator, and I'm going to spend an unforgettable day with you.

Let me introduce you to the witnesses who participated in the selection of the Sai today, namely the Tuas Sacrifice Kolba. Link, Mayor Chaubert, Courier Gobut, and a jury of 20 civilians, let's look forward to the annual tryouts!

Do you want to have a better life? Do you want to have more power? Do you want to be in the limelight? Do you want to...

Speaking of which, all the garbage such as banana peels, fruit peels, and bamboo shoes flew over below...

"With so much excitement out there, let's get ready to get started!" Gomez straightened the old man's clothes and walked smoothly.

"Let me explain the rules for you, the selection competition is divided into three rounds: preliminaries, semi-finals, and finals, and the sacrifice can use all kinds of sacrificial techniques in the competition, as long as the opponent admits defeat or falls off the stage, it will win; Those who participate in the infantry selection are not allowed to use weapons, and if the opponent admits defeat or falls under the platform, the winner will win, so let the mayor declare the game open," Gomez said quickly. There was fierce applause and shouts below... (I don't think there is applause!) But I really can't find out how to express it, so everyone laughs)

"I declare that the competition is officially open," Schubert said in a booming voice.

"Eight judges were asked to stand in front of the platform, and this year 213 people participated in the sacrificial trials, and 123 people participated in the infantry trials. For the sake of the fairness of the competition, after the unanimous decision of the mayor and others, the sacrifice of soldiers was divided into three occasions: the sacrifice of the people, the sacrifice of the soldiers, and the sacrifice of the priests. The infantry is divided into two occasions according to weight, weighing less than 75 kg in the 5th and 6th platforms, weighing more than 75 kilograms in the 7th and 8th platforms, please draw lots according to the rules to the competition area, etc., draw lots for the 1st and 2nd competitions, 3rd and 4th...

And so on, rest assured, as long as you draw the corresponding number according to the rules, you can compete against similar opponents," Gomez added.

After a while, the players each held their match numbers and looked at each other, hoping to see their opponents in advance...

"Yu Xuan, what number are you?" Zifeng rushed over and asked.

"They said I weighed less than 75 kilograms, so I was randomly drawn on the 1st to the 60th, what do you think this is?" As he spoke, he handed over a piece of hard paper.

"Isn't this the 18th? You can wait until you hear that you will go up on the 18th", Zifeng smiled.

"Uh", Tang Yuxuan stared at Zifeng blankly. Suddenly felt that there was someone, as soon as he raised his head, his eyes were right, Zifeng's face turned red in an instant, and he pouted and said angrily: "Look at it, I haven't seen it!"

Take this...", as he walked to the bluebird on the other side.

"Hehe, boy, not everyone can impress Zifeng", a thin and swarthy little man next to him mocked.

Tang Yuxuan looked to the left, in his opinion, the weight of at least 100 kilograms, Luo Kai, who was seen by Tang Yuxuan, shook his body twice, and the meat ring on his belly couldn't help but make him swallow his saliva, and looked at his flat belly that slightly highlighted his abdominal muscles, he felt inferior for the first time, and gave a thumbs up: "Okay!" You win".

"Boy, you know how he feels about you! How does it feel? I heard that you are also going to participate in the infantry selection, and I will take good care of you then", Luo Kai said with a sneer.

"Judging from the changes in his eyes and face, he has a very big grudge against you, Brother Xuan, you have to pay attention", Xiaohu's voice came from his ears.

"Oh, look at what you said a lot, you see that you were just scolded by Zifeng, and you are depressed! Are you going to let me stop going down? Tang Yuxuan pleaded.

"I'll give you a suggestion, stay away from Zifeng, otherwise you'd better pray to the Snake God not to touch me, otherwise...", Luo Kai continued to sneer.

"Oh, let's talk about it! The premise is that you can meet wow! Tang Yuxuan also laughed sneeringly.

And Zifeng chatted with a few people who usually played well, and looked over from time to time...

"Zifeng, I'm talking to you! Where are you looking?", before one of the girls could finish speaking, several people followed her gaze at the same time...

"Oh, I said why have you been absent-minded all this time...", several people suddenly realized.

"Well, what?" Zifeng looked at a few people inexplicably.

One of the girls in gray and black short-sleeved walked over quickly and took Zifeng's hand and said, "Zifeng, help me introduce you!" He's the prince of my dreams."

"Huh?" Zifeng was speechless in surprise.

"And me, and me...", the women argued.

"Alright! As for him, he has a bad personality and a short temper, so I think it's better to forget it", Zifeng shirked.

"No, you can't take it all to yourself! Let's have a fair competition, what do you think? One of them coaxed.

"Cut, whoever wants to take it, who is rare!" Zifeng pretended to be disdainful, but her eyes betrayed her.

"Alright, alright, let's tell you a secret! Yu Xuan will participate in the infantry selection, as long as you pass the sacrificial selection competition, you can go to the imperial capital with him", Zifeng said indifferently.

"Really? Then I'll have to squeeze in as hard as I can," thought a few nymphomaniacs.

"It's up to you, I'll go over there and have a look, you guys get ready, don't forget it when you arrive", said Zifeng and walked to the other side......

"Company commander, can't we go back? It's been almost 20 years, and I'm really homesick", on a certain mountain, wearing golden armor and holding a golden helmet, he stared at another human.

"Why wouldn't I want to! It's been almost 20 years, and I'm almost 20 years old! He sighed.

"Then why are we here? I can't go back, but at least I should go back and see my family! ", asked another.

At this time, the company commander, who was called the company commander, turned around, glanced at the 19 soldiers in armor, and said bitterly: "Do you remember the old man who called himself the dragon god more than ten years ago? It was he who introduced us to that mysterious place to train us for ten years, learned so much, and came out to fight for so long, for what? ”

"I remember him saying that there would be an important person, and that we should wait patiently, and that it would not be long before there would be a century of chaos, and the old man said that man might change the world," one of them said.

"Now that we have abilities that no mortal can match, we should take on greater responsibilities, and in the past two years, the dark forces have been increasing, and there have been frictions of different sizes between countries, I think - everyone should give up their little homes! Maybe if we hadn't stumbled into the secret zone by mistake, would we still be here? Isn't the battle of Jute predicted by him more than ten years ago staged now? So, everyone should bear with me, we will definitely be able to reunite with our families soon, and all we can do now is wait...", said the company commander.

In a short time, the twenty men disappeared into the jungle again, or even any trace...

(Who are they?) Maybe you just pay attention to the battle of Jute more than ten years ago)
