Scales and iron armor, wind and sand all over the sky.

Five days later.

Three thousand miles away from the Daqian frontier, in a heavily guarded military camp.

Champion Hou Yang An sat on the main seat and looked at the dozen or so 'recruits' who came to join the army this time in the tent.

'This person is that Hong Yi, the son of the prime minister of the dynasty? ’

Yang An was taking a closer look at these 'recruits' at this time. Among them, Hong Yi, who is a high school person, is among them, and he arrived early this morning.

At the same time, there is also Hong Xuanji's letter.

And Zhao Zhou's letter is still on the way.

It is conceivable that Hong Yi is now being 'remembered' by Yang An, and it is estimated that there is nothing good to do.

In particular, Hong Xuanji's letter also said: 'The dog Hong Yi is dedicated to joining the army and establishing a career, and the champion Hou can be trained according to the regular soldiers. ’

It's just that this doesn't sound special, it's like sending your child to a private school, hoping that the teacher will teach you carefully, and you won't have to be soft.

But at this time in the big tent.

Yang An saw Hong Yi's 'weak and can't help the wind', and according to the relationship between Hong Xuanji and Hong Yi rumored in the DPRK, he felt that if he used a 'formal' training method, he would have to practice Hong Yi to death!

But.

Yang An is also a 'clear person', who knows who is valuable and who is useless, and knows the way to make trade-offs.

So, after a little thought, he almost settled the matter.

With Hong Xuanji's identity, it doesn't hurt to sell him face. Anyway, the military regulations are like this, and I will do it easily. And it is only natural for me to train my own soldiers, so that they can better survive on the battlefield..'

Even if something happens, no one will impeach me. ’

Yang An thought about it, and then looked at Hong Yi, who was wearing fine leather armor and still looked a little thin, "You are Hong Yi, the son of the prime minister today?" ”

"Yes, sir!" Hong Yi took two steps forward and bowed his hand, and the etiquette seemed to be not picky, as if he had learned it specifically.

"Yes." When Yang An saw Hong Yi's promise, he nodded slightly, knowing that this person was not mistaken, so he said again: "Hong Yi, Benhou reminds you." This military camp is not as leisurely as Wuhou Mansion. ”

When Yang An said this, there was a lot of sarcasm in his words, and there was no trace of the 'approachable' appearance of the previous years.

Or rather, these two years have passed.

After Yang An stepped into the realm of the peak of the Martial Saint, his arrogant temperament gradually stopped reining in.

In addition, it is thousands of miles away from the imperial capital, and the mountain is far away from the emperor.

What else does Yang An need to hide, it's such a personality, whoever is dissatisfied will come to him if he has the ability!

But.

Hong Yi heard Yang An's slightly mocking words, but he didn't like it in his heart.

But he always knows that he is now a subordinate of Champion Hou, if he dares to contradict Champion Hou for a few words, then it is indispensable to wait for the board or 'wear small shoes' in the future.

"Since the imperial court has assigned me to the champion marquis." I also have the idea that a gentleman needs to review the situation for a long time, and when he endures, he will endure." When Hong Yi heard Yang An's ridicule, although he was a little angry in his heart, his face was square, so that Yang An couldn't find a flaw.

"Go ahead, find General Lee." Yang An saw that he couldn't find this stubble, but there were still a lot of ways, and he could 100% guarantee that Hong Yi couldn't escape from his palm, and he could easily treat him!

"And." Yang An said again, "After finding General Li, I filled in my identity." You will come to serve in my escort as Benhou's personal guard. ”

'Guards? When Hong Yi was about to receive the order to retreat, he suddenly heard such a sentence, but he was suspicious in his heart, feeling that this matter was not simple! It seems to be different from what I thought of 'making contributions'!

So, on the way to General Li's camp, he was also thinking about it urgently, trying to find the key to this 'wrong'.

'I can come to the champion Hou, it was assigned by the examiners of the imperial examination. In addition, I have no grudges with the champion Hou, and now it is only the first time we have met, so he should not target me..'

Judging from the situation just now, this champion not only has an obvious sarcastic appearance against me, but also counts his order to take me with him, no matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like he wants to train me. Otherwise, they wouldn't be so sarcastic about me. ”

"And according to this thought, it is difficult for my father to interfere with it, not to let me work in the army, and to say something to the champion Hou Yan. Or maybe my father had a grudge with the champion Hou first, so he made the champion Hou so "embarrassed" with me..'

'Still. The law of the Great Dry is strict. I don't believe that I really want to make a meritorious service, and he will violate the law of the Great Cadre and forcibly deduct my credit..'

Hong Yi thought about it and didn't say anything.

Because the cause and effect of this matter are even close to the facts he pondered. But he didn't have any choice but to take one step and say one step.

After all, he's now under the fence.

If he sued the court, it was estimated that he would not even be able to send the letter, and in the end, the champion Hou learned that he sued him, and he suffered the loss.

But if you leave in resentment, you will be a 'deserter!' ’

Champion Hou and Hong Xuanji wish he was like this!

It's just that.

Hong Yi also knew that the only thing he was not under the control of the champion Hou and Hong Xuanji was that he was now strong, and he was not afraid of training day and night, or had no chance to make contributions.

Especially according to his current strength of 'Martial Arts Peak', as long as he has followed the champion Hou to the battlefield once, he can completely kill the alien races who are making trouble outside the border and add luster to his 'merits'!

At that time, it will be impossible for the champion Hou to blatantly withhold his credit!

This is also Hong Yi's only chance to turn over!

'Bear with it first, as long as you can go to the battlefield..' Hong Yi's thoughts fell, and he began to think about how he could go to the battlefield and kill aliens.

But he didn't know that Champion Hou didn't have the idea of letting him go to the battlefield at all.

Because it was also when Hong Yi finished filling in the information and returned to the camp of the champion Hou.

Champion Hou directly ordered, and assigned Hong Yi to the pro-soldier team in the army camp!

This official position is equivalent to the guards on duty in front of the champion Hou's own account, usually either training, or standing outside the account, guarding his own safety, and there is no chance to leave the barracks at all!

Unless it is the alien race that breaks through the forefront of the defense line, kills in the territory of the Daqian frontier, and steps on the camp of the champion Hou!

But in that case, Daqian's army had already been defeated and abandoned its territory.

As long as Hong Yi doesn't want to die, he can only escape for his life, and what kind of merit can he make.

Equally.

Hong Yi learned of this situation, and also knew that the champion Hou let himself be on duty in the big tent, and it was clear that he arranged himself! 'Don't give yourself a way to make a living!'

But relatively speaking.

This position of 'guarding the pro-soldier', if it is seen to outsiders, it is clear that the champion Hou takes care of Hong Yi, and he can't bear to let him go to the battlefield and get injured, so he will be arranged to such a safe place!

This Hong Yi is worthy of being the son of Marquis Wu. The military salary is the same as mine, but I don't have to go to the battlefield to work hard..' There was a soldier in the tent who was afraid of death, and when he saw that Hong Yi was arranged in such a good 'post', he sighed that Hong Yi had a 'good father'.

"Thank you. Champion Hou.." And Hong Yi saw that this order was given, what else was there to say, so he could only accept his fate, and then saluted, and then took the order to stand outside the account.

But.

Hong Yi stood outside the account, looking at the patrol soldiers coming and going, and thinking that he could still study when he was resting, he was also a little more relaxed.

But the champion Hou is ruthless and tricky, how can he make Hong Yi's wish come true? ’

Thereupon.

Again, Hong Yi hasn't been in the off-the-books station for half an hour.

Champion Hou walked out of the big tent and instructed him: "You have just entered the camp, you need to hone your martial arts with the head of the guard, and improve your skills."

Champion Hou said, while asking his subordinate 'Condor King' to come over, he said to Hong Yi sincerely: "This side of the war in Xinjiang, a little more ability, a little more capital to save your life." Hong Yi, as the son of Wuhou, you should be both civil and military, don't let down the good intentions of Benhou and your father. ”

After speaking, after the champion Hou gave Hong Yi an encouraging look, he didn't wait for Hong Yi to reply, and walked into the distance, leaving only the Condor King, who was one of the 'Eight Great Ghost Immortals'!

Especially the Condor King, as a great master of ghosts and immortals, whether it is Hong Yi listening or disobeying orders, anyway, Hong Yi is a monkey somersault in his hands, and no matter how he turns it, he can't turn it out of the palm of the Buddha's hand.

"Young Master Yi, please? Don't embarrass me. "The Condor King is not smiling, with ruthlessness in his eyes, he is not a good person to get along with!

"Yes."

Hong Yi saw this situation, so he didn't have anything to say, his superiors ordered him, and he couldn't beat it, and he couldn't run, so he could only take the order to leave again, and followed the Peacock King to the martial arts training ground and began to hone his strength.

But what he thought in his heart was that he practiced and practiced, and he couldn't have half a minute to study!

It's just that it backfired.

Because the Condor King deeply received his Hou Ye's order, he knew that he wanted Hong Yi to be unable to do anything!

So, when he trained, he was training to the death, squeezing all of Hong Yi's potential!

And this is not like martial arts training, after the limit, break through the original realm of 'squeezing extreme training'.

On the contrary, it is the kind of 'death training' that hurts the muscles and bones and hurts the soul! ’

For example, after the Condor King found out that Hong Yi actually had the realm of 'martial artist', he only let Hong Yi rest for two hours a day!

In addition, it is to let Hong Yi run a few miles with a thousand pounds of boulders, or push a lead block and jump thousands of times.

No matter how you look at it, it's completely the kind of 'death training' that has no 'formal plan' and squeezes for the sake of squeezing! ’

And the champion Hou also said: 'Hong Yi is the son of Wuhou, and he is also a 'test-taker' person, so he should lead by example, and don't let others see jokes. Otherwise, he would "drive back" Hong Yi with a heartache. ’

Thereupon.

Hong Yi knew that he couldn't understand the reason, and in order not to be driven back, he had the identity of a 'deserter', and lost the qualification to take the imperial examination, so he could only train silently.

And this went on for four days.

Hong Yi didn't sleep well at all, let alone studying, as long as he didn't want to die of exhaustion, he could only cherish these two hours and sleep well, don't think about so many ghost ideas.

In particular, this is also a military camp, a place where soldiers are ready to go to the battlefield at any time.

Even if Hong Yi went to sue the champion Hou, saying that he didn't let him study, he specially punished himself.

The people above will also say, 'You can study, but you don't want to stay at home and study, so you have to go to the barracks to show off?' Do you want to make meritorious contributions and want to take the top exam next year? Even if he is a holy son, he would not dare to be so arrogant! Eat in the bowl and look in the pot! ’

Moreover, Hong Yi studied poetry and books hard, and after thinking of these very simple 'refutation' words, he also understood this truth.

So.

Hong Yi came down in the past four days, and he was really aware of the purpose of the champion Hou, and after thinking that he was really 'arranged' this time, his heart sank, as if he had fallen into an ice cave, and he felt that the next imperial examination was 'hanging!' ’

Because I didn't read or write this year.

No scholar who has passed for such a year can not be as talented as before, and he will come with a pen.

It can be said that the way of this imperial examination is 'absolute'!

..

'How can this be good..'

Also on the fifth day of 'Death Training'.

Hong Yi's hands and feet were sore, he woke up from the bed in a daze, and saw the Condor King standing outside the account with a smile on his face, waiting for him, as if he was afraid that he would run away!

Needless to say, it's another day of training according to death!

And that's not to mention reading.

Hong Yi felt that whether he could survive this military camp for a year, and then heal his mental injuries afterwards, it was a big problem!

This cultivation path is also about to be 'absolute'.

"Young Master Yi, please."

But when the Condor King saw Hong Yi walking out of the tent, he didn't take a big stone and put it on Hong Yi's back as usual, and let him jump on his back to eat.

Instead.

The Condor King's face at this time was really smiling, and he stretched out his hand to lead Hong Yi to the tent of the champion Hou.

'I'm already like this, do you want to yin me again..' When Hong Yi heard this, he was also a little confused, and he didn't know what tricks this champion Hou wanted to come up with.

But thinking about it, Hong Yi had no choice but to obediently follow the Condor King and go to the big tent of the champion Hou.

Wait to get here.

Yang An, who was on the throne, saw the two of them coming, but he didn't say anything more vicious schemes, but said with an approachable smile: "After these few days of training, Ben Hou has seen that Yi Gongzi has an unyielding heart and is a person with both civil and military talents."

Yang An said, waving his hand to make the Condor King stand down.

And at this time, it seems that Yang An's original 'death training plan' is really like he wants to hone Hong Yi, and he can't make a fool of himself.

But actually.

It was Yang An who received a letter from Zhao Zhou last night, which said: "Hong Yi is a disciple of Benhou. 'Just a few words.

But there was also a picture in the envelope, which was Wu Hou's 'Diagram of the Human Immortal Cave!' ’

So, when Yang An saw this, whether it was for his 'best friend' relationship with Wenhou, or for this picture of the human immortal acupoint, he would definitely sell Zhao Zhou a face, take good care of Hong Yi, and immediately leave that Wuhou Hong Xuanji behind.

"It turns out that Gongzi Yi knows Lord Wenhou, why didn't he say it earlier!"

Inside the big tent.

Yang An saw that the Condor King had left at this time, and there was no one else in the tent, but he looked at Hong Yi and said more and more kindly: "If it weren't for the letter from Lord Wenhou, I would still be in the valley."

"And now, as a lifter and a disciple of Lord Wenhou, Yi Gongzi should be preparing for the imperial examination, and he doesn't have to polish his body day and night."

As he spoke, he led Hong Yi, who had not returned to his senses, to the side hall of his big tent, and pointed to the dazzling books in the tent and said, "In my opinion, it is better for Gongzi Yi to transfer to a position now and help Ben Hou repair these books first?"

"Mending books?" Hong Yi took a general look at this time and saw that these books were all in their entirety, without any damage!

So in other words.

Hong Yi combined with the previous hearing that Yang An knew his teacher, and then after this scene of 'repairing books', how could he not understand that Yang An was for the sake of his teacher, so that he could read safely and steadily!

The same is true for this.

Hong Yi thought of this, and saw that there were all kinds of cultivation books and precious ancient books in this house, and he was sincerely grateful to his mentor for freeing him from that 'sea of suffering!' ’

If it weren't for the letter from the teacher, this champion Hou would have changed his mind... Then my military camp for a year, isn't it in vain that I have been delayed for a year, and I have also fallen into a dark wound... The civil and military are half wasted..'

Hong Yi thought in his heart, sighing, knowing that according to the original situation, let alone his own achievements, even if he wanted to get out of the barracks intact, it would be difficult!

And then.

Because Zhao Zhou's letter fell.

Hong Yi's days in the past year are just to read and read, and to practice martial arts!

For him, who has been yearning for freedom since he was a child, he is simply alive like a fairy!

Not to mention that the champion Hou got the benefits of Zhao Zhou, and he also took Hong Yi to the battlefield and helped him make some 'credits', so that even if he failed in the imperial examination next year, he could still get an official position in the army.

This is also a 'little favor' that flows smoothly.

Therefore.

Hong Yi was not grateful to the champion Hou, but was even more grateful to his 'teacher'! I also study harder and prepare to die in the future!

And this kind of life will continue until the beginning of spring next year, when the imperial examination will be held.

The energetic Hong Yicai returned to the Wuhou Mansion under the escort of the champion Hou, preparing to rest for a day and then participate in the imperial examination the next day.

It's just that.

this day.

After Hong Xuanji saw that his rebel seemed to have become 'chubby', he pondered for a few breaths, knowing that the arrogant champion Hou was definitely throwing his face!

Otherwise, according to his own thoughts, Hong Yi must have 'crawled' back, or during this period, he could hear 'bad news' from the army! ’

And now.

None of this happened.

After Hong Xuanji saw that his rebel son could still hold the pen to participate in the imperial examination, he felt that there must be something strange about this matter! ’

It was my letter that made the champion Hou unhappy. Or did someone in the DPRK help Hong Yi? Hong Xuanji thought about it, and felt that it was nothing more than these two possibilities.

Because, he also knew the arrogant nature of the champion Hou, and felt that it was impossible for Hong Yi and the champion Hou to become friends, and then take care of him.

Similarly, he also knew that Zhao Zhou had no contact with the champion Hou, and felt that it could not be his 'best friend' Zhao Zhou, and he was going to make trouble.

So, I thought about it.

Hong Xuanji felt that it should be his letter with the meaning of 'order', which made the young champion Hou have some rebellious thoughts, and then he wanted to do it against himself!

But no matter what.

Hong Xuanji was still confused, so he went to Zhao Zhou's inn to talk about the tone, or to 'arrange' it again to see where this 'strange' was.

And on the way to the inn by Hong Xuanji.

Zhao Zhou happened to open the acupuncture points in the inn, and also saw Hong Xuanji, who came to be a guest with a few pots of good wine.

"Champion Lang, I have treasured the monkey wine for thirty years, try it?" When Hong Xuanji stepped into the inn, he laughed a few times, and took two porcelain bowls from the counter and filled them respectively.

In the end, Hong Xuanji didn't talk nonsense, just clinked his glasses, and said bluntly: "My disobedient child not only stayed in the army for a year, but also participated in the imperial examination tomorrow." Now, I want to know what the champion has to say. But because of this disobedient child, it affected the relationship between the two of us. ”

"When the imperial examination will be held tomorrow, Xuanji will inspect the examination room with me and put pressure on Na Hongyi." Zhao Zhou heard Hong Xuanji mention Hong Yi's matter, and he also casually said a 'psychological plan'.

That was hundreds of examiners, taking turns to pass by in front of Hong Yi's examination room, which made him restless, panicked, and then had no intention of answering the paper.

It's just that Hong Xuanji heard about it, but he felt that this method was inappropriate, so he said: "If the pressure can't be done, my disobedient child still insists on answering the questionnaire."

"The day the papers were examined." Zhao Zhou took a sip of tea quietly, "I'll call the shots, brush it down." ”

'Click' Hong Xuanji saw and heard, bowed his hand, and gave Zhao Zhou a glass.
