Chapter 54: Han Zhong
The personal guards of the members of the Lei family are generally four, and if one of them unfortunately dies, they will naturally choose a new person to fill in the Eagle's Nest, or choose a suitable person from the warriors from the Eagle's Nest. But now, six guards and two young masters, how to divide them?
Old Duke Lei didn't let everyone wonder for too long, pointed to Arthur and a female warrior and said, "You two, from today onwards, as Lei Feng's personal guards, it is possible to protect his safety?"
The two knelt on one knee, put their right fist on their chests, and said in unison: "I swear to the spirit of the ancestors, I am willing to always follow my master Lei Feng, do my best, and never regret my death." ”
Lei Feng was stunned by this sudden arrangement, he just told his grandfather to help him keep Arthur, why did he bring a female warrior? And shouldn't I arrange a personal guard when I am about to graduate like Brother Shan?
Confused, the two people in the audience are still kneeling, you can't ignore others, right?
Lei Feng tidied up his clothes slightly, walked to the old Duke Lei's side, smiled at the two kneeling and said, "I, Lei Feng, accept your allegiance. ”
"Oh ~ You have new news, please pay attention to check. The long-lost prompt sounded again, and two pop-up boxes appeared in front of Lei Feng's eyes: "The subordinate character Arthur has returned, please pay attention to check!" "Congratulations on getting the new subordinate character, Flower Seven." Do you want to use a legacy card?OK/cancel. ”
Lei Feng decisively ordered to cancel, I don't know this ginseng yet, no, the specific situation of this Hua Qi, I am not familiar with her, let's talk about it later.
Arthur and Flower Seven stood up and returned to the queue. Arthur looked at the thunderstorm, and in his eyes, the expression of the thunderstorm in the sun was as warm and sacred as it was back then.
Old Duke Lei said to the remaining four: "You four, from today onwards, as Lei Shan's personal guards, it is possible to protect his safety with you?"
The four of them also knelt on one knee, put their right fist on their chests, and said in unison: "Swear to the spirit of the ancestors, I am willing to follow my master Lei Shan forever, do my best, and never regret my death." ”
Before the four of them swore allegiance, Lei Shan had already stood in front of the high platform, and after the four of them took the oath, Lei Shan said solemnly: "I, Lei Shan, am willing to share weal and sorrow with you from today onwards, life and death." ”
When the four of them heard Lei Shan's words, their gratitude was overflowing, everyone has feelings, although even if Lei Shan didn't say so, the four of them would die for Lei Shan in order to repay the Lei family's nurturing grace, but who wouldn't want to follow a master who regarded him as a sibling?
Han Xue sat behind and watched this scene, and appreciated Lei Shan's performance very much, when he was in the academy, he always heard that Lei Shan was honest and kind to people, and this time he saw it with his own eyes.
Old Duke Lei was also very satisfied with Lei Shan's performance, and after he saw the four people in the audience standing again, he said loudly to all the young soldiers in the Eagle's Nest: "Today's selection is over, I hope you don't relax, continue to train hard, so that you can go into battle in the future to kill the enemy and make contributions to the country." ”
"Go into battle to kill the enemy, for the national merit! Go into battle to kill the enemy, for the national merit!"
When everything was over, Old Duke Lei and Lei Feng had a light meal together in the camp. In the meantime, arrangements were made for the two brothers of Lei Mountain to go to the wasteland ruins: accompanied by Steward Zhou, 6 new guards were with him to protect him, and all matters were decided by Lei Shan Lei Feng, but after encountering danger, he needed to listen to Steward Zhou's advice.
There were 4 people when they came, but when they left, it was already a small group of 10 people. Before and after the carriage, six guards guarded the surroundings, and the black-scaled wildebeest under the seat walked slowly at a neat pace.
Warriors born in the Eagle's Nest generally do not have companion monsters until they leave the Eagle's Nest. If they become guards, their masters will naturally select suitable monster eggs for them, and then use hedrons to ripen them, and if they join the two major legions of the Lei family and become officers, they will be issued with monster eggs of the Black Rock Earth Dragon or the Flame Lion Beast for them to complete the companion ceremony. Of course, if they choose to find the Monster eggs on their own, it is also allowed.
It didn't take much time for the group to return to the Great Qin Imperial Capital. Under Han Xue's guidance, the carriage turned a few streets and came to the station of the Iron Wolf Mercenary Group.
Han Xue got out of the carriage and said hello to the mercenary standing guard at the door, and the mercenary ran into the courtyard, and after a while, a group of people came out of the courtyard and lined up at the door to greet him.
The first middle-aged man, wearing a half mask to cover the left side of his face, also has a hideous scar on the right side of his face from the forehead to the corner of the mouth, although the whole person looks murderous, it is not difficult to see that he should have been a beautiful man with a good demeanor.
The masked man stepped forward, saluted the two Lei Shan brothers, and said with a smile: "I have heard the names of Duke Lei and Count Lei for a long time, and I am really honored that the two young masters of the Lei family can be here today." ”
Although Han Zhong was smiling, Lei Feng felt that he might as well not laugh, it was really terrible to look at.
Lei Shan returned a salute to Han Zhong and said politely: "Uncle Han, Han Xue and I are classmates, so you don't have to be so polite." ”
Han Zhong replied: "If you want it, if you want it, you can't spend it." Please!"
Seeing that Han Zhong insisted, Lei Shan had no choice but to be hospitable. Welcomed by everyone in the Iron Wolf Mercenary Group, the group entered the courtyard.
When they arrived at the front hall, Arthur and other 6 guards guarded the door, only Steward Zhou followed, and Han Xue sat under her father Han Zhong.
Waiting for the maid to serve the refreshments, Han Zhong said to Lei Shan: "Young Master Lei, the little girl should have told you about the matter, you can come over to help, I am really grateful." ”
Lei Shan hurriedly put down the teacup and said to Han Zhong: "Uncle is too polite, for this matter, I only know that I have to come to help, as for the rest, I really know very little." ”
Seeing that Lei Shan still didn't know much about the matter, Han Zhong said, "Two months ago, my Iron Wolf Mercenary Regiment discovered a new secret passage in the ruins of the wasteland, and that secret passage led directly to a large underground hall, but unfortunately when my team members tried to enter it to search, they found that this underground hall was actually protected by an enchantment. ”
Han Zhong turned his gaze to Han Xue and continued: "After the little girl heard about this, she told me that Brother Ling was amazing and had a lot of research on cracking the enchantment, so I asked the little girl to send an invitation to the two sons to help our group crack this enchantment. ”
Lei Shan looked at Lei Feng, his younger brother has research on cracking enchantments, why didn't he know about this?
Lei Feng scratched his head in embarrassment and said, "I understand a little, I understand a little, Senior Sister Han is too exaggerated." ”
Lei Shan put aside his doubts and said to Han Zhong: "Uncle, please rest assured, I am here to help, if there is anything that needs to be done, just ask, you are welcome." ”
Han Zhong was overjoyed after hearing this, and said, "Young Master Lei is really refreshing, please rest assured, as long as the enchantment is opened, the property obtained by our group in the underground hall will be picked by you first." ”
The reward promised by Han Zhong is not high, you must know that no matter what kind of treasure trove it is, the most valuable of them will always be those few pieces. Han Zhong said that Lei Shan would be able to pocket the most valuable treasures at that time, and others would not be able to find anything wrong.
When Lei Shan heard this, he didn't even say no, and was busy thinking about Han Zhong to explain that he came to help this time to compensate Han Xue, and he would never charge a penny, and Han Zhong couldn't persuade him no matter how he persuaded him, so he had to give up in the end.
Lei Feng lowered his head, and while feeding Xiao Bu a little food, he secretly scolded himself. Han Xue's father really has a hand, and he knows what a gentleman can deceive. I don't believe you didn't know in advance that my brother and I had promised to help Han Xue do something, but now this gesture is not too much.
Glancing at Han Zhong, who was chatting with Lei Shan, Lei Feng thought badly: Old boy, you just wait to send your daughter and dowry to my Lei family. If you want to take advantage of my Lei family, there are no windows!
