Chapter 63: Solicitation
The first-order cultivation on Xiao Longchen's body was not yet able to enter the eyes of this city lord, but with his young appearance, it was enough to make him look at him differently.
"I don't know what the little brother is called? Qin Feng, the city lord of the North City of Xiazhen. Although the city lord did not get up, he also politely took the initiative to say hello.
"Senior Long Wu, I've seen the Qin City Lord!" The other party is not only an elder, but his strength is much stronger than him, Xiao Longchen didn't feel anything wrong with such an opening, and when he heard this, he hurriedly bowed down and clasped his fists and saluted.
"I didn't expect that although Little Brother Long was poorly dressed, he could have such a bearing, which surprised Qin someone. Little Brother Long, please take a seat, Li Baihu will step back first!" Qin Feng smiled at Xiao Longchen before turning his head to look at Li Qing, who was kneeling below, and said lightly.
Li Qing bowed and retreated, while Xiao Longchen walked to the chair on the left side of the living room and sat down, although his demeanor was humble, he also seemed calm.
Qin Feng saw all this in his eyes, and was a little more interested in Xiao Longchen, a young genius.
"Little Brother Long is so old that he can break through the star barrier and become a real star magician, which really makes Qin's eyes shine!" After Xiao Longchen sat down, Qin Feng said with a smile.
Xiao Longchen didn't know if what this city lord said was just kind words, or if he really appreciated it from the bottom of his heart, he just looked at Qin Feng and hugged his fists, and replied a little shyly: "Qin City Lord praised it falsely, it was just a fluke to succeed in the next place, and I don't dare to hold it up in front of you, a senior!"
Xiao Longchen's words were straightforward, which made Qin Feng feel a little more good about him. So when he heard this, he immediately laughed a few times, and then said straight to the point: "At a young age, you can be so arrogant and impatient, you deserve the title of a young genius!"
Xiao Longchen smiled bitterly and saluted again, and then listened to Qin Feng continue: "Qin is in charge of one side, and he is eager for talents, if Little Brother Long is interested, how about staying with me as a thousand households?"
As a military general, Qin Feng likes to be straightforward no matter what he says or does, and seeing that the young man's personality in front of him is also quite straightforward, he will no longer make any detours.
This sudden solicitation made Xiao Longchen feel unexpected. However, when I thought of the scarcity of astromagicians, I was relieved at the moment.
"Thanks to the love of the city lord, it's just that the kid is still young, if he holds an important position in the army, I'm afraid it will be a little difficult to convince the public!" Xiao Longchen immediately pretended to be frightened, and waved his hand again and again to refuse politely.
The more humble Xiao Longchen became, the stronger Qin Feng's appreciation for him became, and when he heard that the young man didn't say anything to death, he continued to persuade him: "With the qualifications of a celestial person like Little Brother Long, being a thousand households is a condescending talent. If it weren't for the fact that you were too young, I would have directly named you a general. If there are no other difficulties, you should take this public office!"
Seeing that Xiao Longchen was still embarrassed, Qin Feng added a fire again and said: "Looking at the clothes of the little brother, it must not be from a big family, as long as you are willing to stay under Qin, in addition to the silver every month in the future, Qin will give ten more Star Stones for cultivation resources, I wonder if Little Brother Long can agree?"
The reason why Xiao Longchen hesitated was to consider whether there would be any danger in joining the army here, and secondly, he was also aware of the reason that it would not be despised to sell at a price.
However, seeing that this city lord was so sincere, Xiao Longchen also had some intentions in his heart.
After all, he was the queen of the gate, and he had a natural sense of belonging to the army. Besides, he didn't know anything about this strange world, so it was a good choice to have a place to live for the time being.
After thinking about this, Xiao Longchen slowly got up, learned Qin Ming's movements just now, and knelt down on one knee and said, "Thanks to the love of the Qin City Lord, if the kid doesn't agree again, he really doesn't know how to lift up!"
"Hahaha, okay! Your personality is quite likable, since you promised to stay under the command of the city lord, I dare not guarantee that when you reach adulthood, there will be no big problem with the promotion of the official to the deputy general!"
Xiao Longchen is not interested in power, what he really values is the army's tempering of himself.
But thinking that what this town north city was trying to defend against was those powerful beasts, a little apprehension suddenly rose in his heart.
Perhaps seeing his concern, Qin Feng hurriedly explained, "Four years ago, those alien beasts just launched a large-scale beast tide. Although the loss of my Zhenbei City is not small, those wild beasts have also hurt some vitality. According to the usual practice, there should be no more major battles in five years, so you can cultivate in the city with peace of mind. I believe that with your talents, you will definitely be able to break through to the third order or even higher realm before the next damp comes. ”
Hearing him say this, Xiao Longchen also felt a lot more at ease. He naturally has no sense of belonging to this Orlan Empire, and if he is allowed to charge for this country, it is impossible for Xiao Longchen to find an opportunity to run away.
Since Qin Feng had already said that there would be no more large-scale beast tides within five years, it would be a good choice to stay here and cultivate slowly.
Seeing that his face softened slightly, Qin Feng asked again: "Qin Qianhu is so young, I don't know if there are parents and relatives at home? If there are relatives who need to settle down, they might as well be brought to live in the city together." ”
Qin Feng's words sounded like good intentions, but in fact, it was also a temptation for Xiao Longchen.
If a person of unknown origin like him wants to join the army, political trial is an indispensable link.
It's just that Qin Feng values his age and qualifications, so he recruits him so directly.
Xiao Longchen could naturally hear the tentative meaning in these words, so when he heard this, he immediately pretended to have a sad expression, and was silent for a while before he answered: "The kid was born in the mountains and wilderness, and there were originally a few relatives in the family, but some time ago, he was suddenly attacked by a strange beast, and all the elders in the family unfortunately died, and only the kid escaped with a little strength......!
Speaking of this, he directly converted the star power in his body into a water system, and made a few tears in his eyes. It does seem to be a bit tearful.
Coupled with Xiao Longchen's dress, the identity he made up for himself is very reasonable.
When Qin Feng heard this, a hint of suspicion flashed in his eyes, but if he wanted to really confirm whether the young man's words were true, he still needed to investigate slowly afterwards.
"Your family has suffered a tragedy, strictly speaking, it can be regarded as a dereliction of duty on my Qin. However, this northwestern wilderness borders our human race, and it is inevitable that a few fish will occasionally slip through the net. The deceased is gone, please also ask the little brother Long to mourn and change!" Although Qin Feng's words were comforting Xiao Longchen, the sadness revealed in his expression was not hypocrisy and hypocrisy.
In the tens of thousands of years that the human race has fought against alien beasts, tragedies like the one narrated by Xiao Longchen have happened almost every day in the wilderness. Qin Feng has seen too many tragic cases of family destruction and death, so he also has some empathy.
Over the years, with the gradual rise of the special profession of astral magician, humans have blocked most of the alien beasts from the door wall, but occasionally some have crossed the border fortress and entered the human world behind.
Although those alien beasts will soon be slain by the astrologers who patrol the land, it is not uncommon for some wilderness wanderers to be killed and injured.
At this moment, the sad atmosphere deliberately created by Xiao Longchen is obviously not suitable for continuing to chat. So after Qin Feng comforted him again, he ordered his subordinates to take him to arrange a residence.
In order to prevent Qin Feng from seeing the clues, Xiao Longchen actually thought of the Dragon Clan people in the other universe while telling what happened.
In addition, he had just separated from the goblin clan, and there were still some separations in his heart, so when he got to the back, he shed real tears.
Until he followed the soldier out of the City Lord's Mansion, Xiao Longchen's eyes were still a little red.
After Xiao Longchen left, Qin Feng called a henchman to go to the nearest mountain forest to the south to investigate whether there was a tragic case of the Orion family being wiped out by strange beasts in these days.
In fact, he did this just to have peace of mind. In every place of deep mountains and rivers, similar things are very common, and if you want to confirm Xiao Longchen's life experience, there is actually a big accident.
