Volume 1 The Ups and Downs of Life Chapter 3 Andorra
Sister-in-law Wang sighed, "Don't hide it from Mrs. Madame, I used to look for a doctor in Kashgar." But the doctor said that this was a natural problem, and there was no good way, so he could only wait for him to grow up and see if he could recover. Back here, we mother and son depend on each other, struggling to survive, where do we have the money to go to the doctor. ”
Mrs. Lin was about to speak, when she suddenly heard the doorbell ring.
When the bald old Chen heard the bell, he immediately braved the wind to open the door.
The bald old Chen opened the gate and saw more than a dozen soldiers wearing border guard protective clothing. Standing at the front was the one who had taken off his helmet and drooped his face, as if the whole world owed him thousands of dollars, Second Lieutenant Luke Zhang.
Lao Chen suddenly felt unhappy. Lao Tzu braved the strong wind and opened the door for you, and you showed Lao Tzu his face. Groove, do you really think of yourself as an uncle?
Before Lao Chen could speak, he heard Lu Kezhang snort, spit out the sand in his mouth, and complained: "Why didn't you come to open the door after knocking for so long?" I almost thought you had slept to death. ”
The bald old Chen snorted coldly, "You don't have any brains." With such a strong wind, how could I hear it knocking on the door? Won't it be used if there is a bell? As soon as we meet, I curse Lao Tzu, hum, don't worry, you can't die if you die. White-eyed wolf who can't be raised!
A Siro mongrel, poked at Luke Zhang's scar.
Luke's name means that he doesn't know how many generations ago, his ancestors did have Ciro blood.
After the new era, the first great consul issued a decree requiring all those with Xiluo blood, regardless of paternal and maternal lineals, to change the naming method to first name + surname, instead of the traditional surname + first name of the Eastern Chu State.
This way of naming has a strong sense of dividing ethnic groups. In fact, the purpose of the great ruling at that time was to divide ethnic groups and remind the people of the country that "if they are not of my race, their hearts will be different."
However, in the first three hundred years of the new era, the living environment was extremely harsh, people struggled to survive, and the contradictions of blood were covered by the pressure of survival.
That decree, and that way of naming, didn't really work. What's more, after dozens of generations of reproduction, the bloodlines have long been mixed with each other, and there is hardly much difference in appearance.
With the passage of time, this way of naming and dividing the color of ethnic groups has long faded. Many people do not realize that in the not-so-distant future, profound social changes, violent ethnic conflicts, and even upheavals that will divide entire countries will still be named according to the traditional naming convention.
A contradiction is always a contradiction, and no matter how small it may be at first, as long as it is a contradiction, it is possible that under certain conditions, it will be rapidly intensified and infinitely expanded.
In recent years, with the wars with the New Siro Empire, which have become more frequent and more intense, the contradictions of blood have become more and more obvious.
Especially in the military, discrimination against ethnic groups whose ancestors have Ciro blood is almost to the point of nakedness. Even if the source of this bloodline is far more than a thousand years, it is almost impossible to find it in the body of the person concerned.
Therefore, hearing the bald old Chen scolding the Siro mongrel, Luke Zhang was furious, "You are a dead bald head, dare to scold Lao Tzu." If I don't kill you today, count you as a handsome man!"
As he spoke, he threw the helmet away, grabbed it, and picked him up by the bald old Chen's neck.
Lu Ke Zhang is a third-level cultivator, and the bald old Chen is just an ordinary person who is stronger, and in front of Lu Ke Zhang, he has no power to fight back at all.
was choked by Luke Zhang's neck, he tried to break Lukezhang's hand with both hands, and kicked his two feet wildly, but to no avail. Soon his face was flushed and his eyes bulged.
Lieutenant Jerry Yang, standing next to Lu Kezhang, saw that he was going to die, so he quickly grabbed Lu Kezhang's arm and said sharply: "Second Lieutenant Zhang must not commit murder!"
Luke glared fiercely at Jerry Young. Jerry Young also glared at him solemnly, and gave him a very stealthy look.
Just look at the name, Jerry Young's ancestors also have Ciro blood, and the reason why he came here is because he was disliked by a certain big man, so he found a reason, cleaned it up fiercely, and almost lost his life.
Then, with a kick from the special forces directly under the 22 Army, kicked to this border area where birds don't and ate sand. Therefore, he and Luke Zhang are in sympathy. His persuasion Luke Zhang was able to listen.
Luke Zhang let go of his hand, dropped the bald old Chen, took a sip, and scolded angrily: "If you dare to scold Lao Tzu again, Lao Tzu must kill you!"
The bald old Chen bent over and coughed vigorously.
Jerry Yang said: "Lao Chen, I'm sorry, Lao Zhang has been angry lately. If you are offended, please don't take it to heart. ”
The bald old Chen coughed a few times, straightened up, and said hatefully: "Whether someone is an official or a third-level cultivator, how dare I go to my heart?"
He paused for a moment, calmed down, and said, "However, it's really not a coincidence that you are here, there is a big person, and if you want to spend the night here, I'm afraid you won't be able to stay." ”
Luke stepped forward and brushed away the bald old Chen, "Long-winded fart." When the patrol team encounters bad weather, they stay at the post station, which is stipulated by the border guard command. I'd like to see what kind of big man he is, bigger than the command of the border guards. ”
The bald old Chen immediately ran over, stood in front of Lu Kezhang, blocked the way, and stretched out his hand to stop him, "You killed me, and I can't let you in." I warn you, you can't afford to mess with the people inside. You don't want to make trouble. ”
Jerry Yang said: "Old Chen, don't be angry. Lao Zhang is a rough man, don't be like him. Lao Zhang, you go to rest on the side. Lao Chen, you see, we people, after a day of walking, we are tired, even if we don't stay, we have to go in, eat and drink some water, rest and then leave. ”
The bald head thought for a while and said, "It's okay to eat and rest." However, there are nobles in the hall, you all lighten up, don't disturb the peace of the nobles. ”
"Definitely, definitely. Be quiet, all of you. By the way, which noble person in it can make you so interested in Lao Chen?"
Jerry Yang and Lao Chen, while walking side by side, put on Lao Chen's tone.
The warriors behind quickly followed, entered the courtyard and slowly dispersed, forming an encirclement of the main house of the post station.
The bald old Chen waved his hand, "Don't ask too much." Anyway, it's so expensive. ”
Before the two of them reached the hall, the two men in strong suits guarding the door came over and stretched out their hands to stop Jerry Young.
"Stop. You can't go in. The two of them faced each other like ice, and they looked like they were not close to anyone.
I saw that although the two of them were wearing ordinary clothes, their eyes were solemn, they stood straight, and their every move was full of military demeanor, and their ranks were above the third level, and their strength was not weak.
If you can let a third-level cultivator guard the door, it must be a wealthy family. Jerry Young couldn't understand the situation and didn't dare to come hard.
"Two, we've been walking all day, tired and hungry," Jerry Young said with a smile as he took off his helmet, "and we'll go in and eat and drink hot water." ”
"No, I can't. You are not allowed to enter. "The two had no intention of accommodating at all.
Old Chen shrugged his shoulders and said he wasn't lying. Seeing that the two were resolute, Jerry Young waved his hand helplessly and stepped aside.
At this time, two black shadows, in the wind and sand, flashed ghostly behind the two people at the door, and shot like electricity, directly breaking the necks of the two.
The sudden change startled Lao Chen. He reacted immediately, and opened his mouth to shout loudly. Lu Kezhang quickly stepped forward and slapped his palm on the back of Lao Chen's neck.
Lao Chen immediately fainted.
Mrs. Lin's five senses are keen, and although the wind outside is very loud, she still hears some subtle movements.
She was just about to stand up, when suddenly the door opened, and more than a dozen people, hulala, rushed in. The leader was wearing a border guard's protective suit, with two sleeves and a four-pointed silver star embroidered in the middle of the forearm, and two thick silver lines embroidered underneath, indicating that his rank was lieutenant.
The other person was wearing a protective suit with the rank of second lieutenant. The rest of those were dressed in the protective suits of ordinary warriors.
It was Jerry Young and Luke Zhang who came in. When the two saw Mrs. Lin, they were stunned.
Lin Daoming saw that so many imposing people had come, and he was a little scared in his heart, so he immediately pulled Wang Xiaotian up and ran to Mrs. Lin's side.
Sister-in-law Wang hurriedly pulled Wang Xiaotian over and blocked behind her.
Mrs. Lin was very calm. Because she was a fifth-level Force cultivator, these people together were no match for him.
But. She hasn't figured out the situation yet, so it's inconvenient to act immediately.
So, she quickly glanced at everyone and smiled, "You are the soldiers patrolling the border." Great work. ”
Luke opened his eyes very flustered, looking at Mrs. Lin, not knowing what to say. He never dreamed that the target of those people would be Mrs. Lin!
At this time, three people in black cloaks suddenly appeared at the door.
The leader lifted his hood to reveal a smiling, round face. His hair was flaxen, his eyes were blue, and he had two moustaches on his lips.
Everyone got out of the way, and the mustache was stunned when he saw the situation inside. He walked quickly to the front and looked at Mrs. Lin and Lin Daoming carefully.
Mrs. Lin was also stunned. Seeing these border guards, she thought that these people and the people she brought with her had suffered losses in conflicts outside, so they would come in to ask for explanations.
But when she saw the three who came in later, she sensed that something was wrong.
The mustache at the head has a dazzling glow on his body, and he is clearly in the peak state of the fifth level, which is much more powerful than her. And the mustache and their dress, she heard Lin Shaotang say, this is the usual costume of the Siluo State spy organization-lurkers.
Why did the lurkers suddenly appear here? Did they come at him and Lin Daoming?
