Chapter 132: Return to Hou'an Town
The two were about to arrive at the border mountain, and a small town appeared in front of them, and a trace of inexplicable emotion flashed in Luo Ying's eyes. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info
"Let's go around town. ”
Luo Ying suddenly proposed, even though Zhan Wushuang didn't know what he wanted to do, he also walked over with him. The two soon arrived in the town, and everywhere they looked, there were dilapidated scenes, and there seemed to be fewer people.
The earthy yellow ground, the gray-white walls, the familiar sound of iron, the smell of fragrant buns wafting from the street, and the old houses in the distance......
Luo Ying took a deep breath, everything was still so familiar, after three years of absence...... Hou'an Town!
Zhan Wushuang was surprisingly quiet, didn't ask anything, didn't say anything, just silently accompanied him, like a well-behaved lady, and the villagers who saw the two of them from a distance all cast curious eyes.
"Two drawers of buns. ”
Luo Ying walked to the bun stall and said to a woman.
The woman looked very enthusiastic: "Okay, big stuffed meat buns, make sure you eat ......"
"Don't bring me rat meat, get good ground beef." ”
Before the woman could finish speaking, she was interrupted by Luo Ying, and her smile immediately became embarrassed, and the two cage drawers she picked up were also put back, and two drawers of buns were brought up from behind.
The guest officer laughed, I have all the best beef filling. The woman said this, but she was muttering in her heart, this man is very raw, has he lied to him before? How can he not remember, it seems that he is old.
Luo Ying packed the bun, threw out a money bag, and turned to leave.
Before he and Zhan Wushuang had gone far, they heard an exclamation from behind, and then it stopped abruptly, as if they had been cut off.
Zhan Wushuang was puzzled: "I'm afraid that bag of money is a lot, right?"
Luo Ying smiled and didn't answer, but threw a bun whole into his mouth, and then didn't forget to hand it to Zhan Wushuang, but the latter heard that there was still some rat meat, so he killed him and refused to eat it.
The two came to a blacksmith shop again, and Luo Ying was deceived by the seemingly honest blacksmith into buying a broken knife, but what he left behind was also a heavy money bag.
Zhan Wushuang became more and more incomprehensible, and then they walked into a medicinal herb store, and Luo Ying actually spent another bag of money to buy a bunch of useless herbs.
......
It wasn't until the two of them left Hou'an Town that Zhan Wushuang expressed his dissatisfaction in his heart: "That woman has simply lost her conscience, and she actually sells rat meat buns! Just this kind of person, if you give her so much money, won't it encourage her to be a wicked person?"
Luo Ying smiled, threw another bun in his mouth, and said, "Didn't she change it in the end, this beef bun tastes really good, do you want to try it?"
"Disgusting, who wants to eat ......" Zhan Wushuang was disgusted when she saw the bun now, and the more she said, the more angry she became: "Later, you went to those poor families and gave them a dozen gold coins, but what you gave to those profiteers, I'm afraid there are more than a few thousand, right? The blacksmith is shoddy, and the shopkeeper of the pharmacy obviously deceives you for not knowing how to do it, what rotten branches, and dare to say that it is a thousand-year-old ginseng?"
Luo Ying laughed and said cheaply: "Guess what?"
......
The border mountain, which connects the endless Wushan Mountain, is the only passage between the Hyunkook and the Jinla country in the area of Changle Fu, and it is also a strategic place.
Luo Ying and the others finally came to the camp in the border mountain, and they ignored him along the way, obviously angry about the affairs of Hou'an Town, but they didn't expect the long-legged girl to be so jealous and hateful, and she couldn't tolerate a little sand in her eyes.
Luo Ying never explained, it was a trivial matter that was not worth mentioning, those simple people, giving them too much money, would harm them, what kind of place is Hou'an Town? Only those ordinary shopkeepers can keep their money.
Bao Zi's sister-in-law is black-hearted, but she used the money from the black to help many children, the same is true for blacksmiths and pharmacy shopkeepers.
There is no standard for good and evil, and the so-called moral standard is just a difference in personal bottom line, or a means used to kidnap others.
Luo Ying never felt that he was a good person, but preferred to be called a ruffian by the people in the town. What about a ruffian? It is better than a sanctimonious gentleman?
Unconsciously, Luo Ying's heart has matured, and this time he returned to Hou'an Town with a makeover, and saw many familiar people, and some of them may never be seen. And he also embarked on a different path, and also disappeared into the world of Bao Zi and his sister-in-law.
However, the border mountains in front of him were still so familiar that Luo Ying almost wanted to say hello, so he went directly into the camp.
"Stop!" shouted the border soldiers outside the camp.
Zhan Wushuang frowned, and showed the tiger head card, which was the symbol of the Black Tiger Banner and explained Luo Ying's identity, so he was released.
Naturally, her joining the border army has attracted much attention, so how can these guards not recognize her? Today, she looks like she has a strict military record, and there seems to be nothing wrong with her, but in fact she has other hidden secrets. Zhan Wushuang knew that it was because she lost a "bullfight", and it was normal to win or lose in this kind of thing, but the aura of the warrior on her body was too dazzling, and more people wanted to step on it after the defeat.
The barracks are far from what she imagined, and compared with these ruffians, the ruffian next to her is much more pleasing to the eye.
"What's wrong? a little unhappy?" Luo Ying noticed the strangeness of Zhan Wushuang, so he asked.
Zhan Wushuang shook his head, unwilling to say anything more, so he took Luo Ying to register.
Fortunately, the general in charge of military registration is reasonable, and it seems that he also gives face to Miss Zhan, Luo Ying soon became a real border army, and his name is also engraved on the back of the Black Tiger card, Xu San!
Don't look at the name of the border army, but the men and horses of this battalion in the border mountain are only more than 1,000 people, and the commander of the entire border army, Kou Dashuai, has 200,000 troops under his command, all of whom are the elite of the Zhenluo country.
There is no strict restriction on the establishment of a battalion of more than 1,000 men and less than 10,000 people. The battalion is divided into nine flags, named after the dragon, tiger and wolf, and each prefix is divided into black, red and white flags, and the strength is from high to low.
The Black Tiger Banner where Zhan Wushuang is located is stronger than the Red Tiger and the White Tiger, but it is not as good as the Dragon Character Three Banners, which belongs to the upper middle level, and the strength of the wolf character is the weakest, and they are basically recruits.
Luo Ying really wanted to go to the Red Wolf Banner to meet Uncle Xu, but he was now and couldn't recognize each other.
He and Zhan Wushuang came to a camp with a black tiger head battle flag, dozens of tents were in a circle, and in the middle of the open space, there were more than 100 people in a big circle, shouting and cheering, so lively.
Luo Ying had seen such scenes when he was a child, and the most popular "bullfighting" in the army, that is, martial arts duels.
There are many functions of bullfighting, which can solve personal grievances, or compete for the position of the small flag or even the general flag.
"Hurry up, it's rare for someone to challenge Mr. Niu's flag, buy and leave, buy and leave!"
"I'm betting on the Ox Banner for 100 gold coins!"
"I bet on the challenger ......"
"Haha, last time you bet on the eldest lady of the Zhan family, accompany you to the bottom, and it won't be a long lesson?"
When Luo Ying heard this, he understood why Zhan Wushuang was depressed, it turned out that she lost the bullfight.
Luo Ying often went to Xu Zhen's Red Wolf Banner when he was a child, and he also knew that the Tiger Flag was much stronger than the Wolf Banner.
"You're Little Flag now?"
"It's not...... But it's pretty much the same. ”
"Fought with them?"
"Hmm. ”
"Lost?"
"That's his trick!"
"Soldiers don't get tired of cheating. ”
“......”
Between Luo Ying and Zhan Wushuang talking, they had already walked to the edge of the crowd, and at this time, the two bullfighting people also divided the winners and losers, and the winner was a powerful man, presumably the so-called Niu Zongqi.
Luo Ying saw that although this person was a fifth-layer Yuanhua, his cultivation was not condensed, and he should be a martial artist who quenched his body, while the long-legged girl was a Tianyuan quenching body, two grades higher than this person, and his martial arts skills were strong enough, so he should not lose.
Those who quench the body need to be upgraded to one or two more realms in order to compete with the people who quench the body of the earth, and similarly, the body of the heavenly element is much stronger than the body of the earth, which is the absolute gap brought about by the difference in the body of the quenching.
However, Luo Ying can also guess the reason, Zhan Wushuang is still too tender compared to these old fritters, and he fought against the gang of soldiers and bandits in the soil lizard slope before, and Zhan Wushuang almost fell into the road, and the lack of scheming and combat experience is not something that can be made up for by quenching the body.
The martial artists who came out of the academy were originally qualified to become the general flag, but there is an unwritten rule in the army, if you want to get ahead, you have to serve the public, unless you make military achievements on the battlefield and are recognized by everyone, otherwise even if you are qualified, you have to rely on your strength to get the position of the general flag.
Luo Ying also pinched a sweat for her, fortunately, Zhan Wushuang still has self-knowledge, if she chooses to join the three banners of the dragon word, even if it is the weakest white dragon flag, her confidence will be hit and there will be no points left. As for this black tiger flag, Luo Ying believes that as long as the long-legged girl sharpens it a little, she will soon find her way back.
"Oops! ”
"It's the deputy general flag who is back, hurry up and boil the water!"
"Hahaha......"
Seeing Zhan Wushuang appear, everyone immediately came to their senses, and suddenly there was a burst of laughter.
The person who spoke, although not maliciously insulting, but obviously teasing, set up a pot to boil water? Luo Ying knew that they liked this kind of boring joke, and if they were really asked to boil water, no one dared to go.
However, a beautiful woman with a hot body, when she came to this kind of place, if she didn't suppress this group of veterans by thunderous means, she could only end up like this.
Zhan Wushuang's face is ugly, she has been a little princess in the army since she was a child, how could she have suffered such grievances, her fists were about to crush, she only hated that she had lost the bullfight before, she didn't play the position of the general flag, and ironically became the deputy general flag, but in fact it was not as good as a small flag,
"It's really time for the deputy general flag to come back, before we broke the Zhenluo army, the soldiers fought bravely to kill the enemy, but unfortunately the deputy general flag was not there. ”
That Niu Zongqi looked regretful, but in his words, he was sarcastic, and it was too late to wait until the end of the war.
Zhan Wushuang lightly compared the cherry lips, and was about to step forward to challenge again, when she first arrived at the barracks, she had just broken through the Yuanhua realm, and during this time she had practiced diligently, and she had already reached the second layer of Yuanhua a few days ago, and she couldn't wait to fight with this person immediately.
Who knew that Luo Ying stopped her and said: "You don't know the rules yet, the loser has no right to challenge the winner within three months." ”
"Yo, this brother is tight-faced, but he also knows the rules of the border army?"
At this time, Niu Zongqi and others noticed Luo Ying, but they didn't pay attention to him because of his mediocre appearance and his cultivation around him.
Luo Ying said with a smile: "In Xia Xu San, I just joined the Black Tiger Banner today and have seen Lord Zongqi. ”
"Well, it's easy to say, since you are a brother, what are you cultivating?" Niu Zongqi immediately put up his stand and took out the tone of a chief, which is very important in the barracks.
"The third layer of Yuanhua is from the warriors, and he is qualified to serve as the general flag. Luo Ying said unhurriedly.
After hearing this, Niu Zongqi's face immediately sank: "Hmph! It's really true that the Zhan family is true, and they are also going to provoke on the first day of coming." ”
Luo Ying didn't say much, but the blade lit up: "Let's fight, the loser rolls off the position of the general flag." ”
"Hahaha! You are just a recruit, but you bet with me on the position of the general flag? What if you are from a war family? This military camp is surnamed Kou, not a place for you to spread wild!" Niu Zongqi sneered.
If he loses, he will lose the position of the general flag, and the other party will pat his ass and say that he understands?
Luo Ying looked at the ring, took out a third-level spear casually, and threw it on the ground, this is the commission of his cooperation with Li Er, which is counted as a bargaining chip for bullfighting.
The third-level weapons are often millions, spear weapons are even more popular in the army, Niu Zongqi's eyes are shining, and the fat sheep of the warriors are really stupid and have a lot of money, and they can't wait to be the general flag on the first day they come.
But he is not stupid, since Zhan Wushuang knows his strength, if he is not sure, he will not let the Zhan family's family show ugliness, this person will take the initiative to provoke as soon as he comes, I am afraid it is not simple.
However, the third-level spear in front of him was too tempting, how could Niu Zongqi be willing to refuse to fight? Not to mention that Luo Ying had already deliberately shown his cultivation, and there were only three layers of Yuanhua.
Soon, Niu Zongqi made up his mind, he was two realms higher than the other party, and he was afraid of a fighter's minions? Even the eldest lady of the warlord would be defeated under him......
Luo Ying saw that he hesitated, and simply threw out a large pile of gold bars, Lao Tzu is rich, do you want to fight or not?
"Niu Zongqi, it's done!"
"yes, kill him, this time I'll bet on you to win!"
"That's... I repaid the challenger ......"
"Are you stupid? How many times do you lose to grow your heart?"
Luo Ying strode into the field, a handful of elite soldiers, gold bars in one place, and the noise of the whole audience, if this Niu Zongqi should not fight again, don't want to mix in the Black Tiger Banner in the future.
Sure enough, the other party snorted coldly, and also showed his blade, which was a machete, a sharp weapon for hand-to-hand combat on the battlefield.
"I'll see how majestic your warriors are!"
Niu Zongqi's expression was solemn, obviously wary of Luo Ying's calmness, but he was able to climb all the way from the wolf to the strongest black tiger banner at the head of the tiger, and become the general banner, naturally he was not a vegetarian. (To be continued.) )
