Chapter 817: Congrong

Eight Power Stones!

This is a staggering number.

In the Divine Cultivation Realm, it would take several months to absorb the energy of a top-grade energy stone, but Zhou Sen had absorbed the energy of a full eight demon beast energy stones in just one month, and if it was transmitted, it would definitely cause the entire continent to tremble.

It is worth mentioning here that Zhou Sen did not convert energy into superpowers, because his current superpowers could not refine the energy of the energy stones.

Zhou Sen is now only storing energy in his body and cannot use it.

Rao is like this, the energy in Zhou Sen's body has reached an appalling level, and the two superpowers have also become extremely condensed because of the abundant energy, the only regret is that this superpower has not yet been promoted, and the energy cannot be used.

Zhou Sen's willpower is extremely firm, although he can't refine the energy, he still ruthlessly absorbs the energy of the demon beast power stone, he firmly believes that after absorbing these energies, there is only benefit and no harm.

The impact of energy on superpowers is insignificant, but it is of great benefit to Zhou Sen's majestic realm.

From "posture" to "battle", Zhou Sen has made further progress and reached a new realm, and many things that he didn't understand before were suddenly integrated, and he always had an epiphany.

What made Zhou Sen depressed was that no matter how he cultivated, how he improved his "posture", "quietness" and "speed", but the "battle" was sluggish from beginning to end, and although it had reached a critical point, it was still unable to break through.

It seems that the "battle" of the majestic realm of "Invincible Cheats" is not suitable for retreat and cultivation, but requires non-stop fighting.

He thought of the battle outside Wuchao City, the battle between just a few breaths, and the "battle" that had made him stagnant advance by leaps and bounds, and there was an immediate breakthrough, which showed that the so-called "war" was to fight in real terms, not just brewing the will to fight.

At the same time, Zhou Sen also realized that "war" does not mean that you can break through a fight or something, because Zhou Sen has fought with Red Bull for countless days and nights, but there is no breakthrough in the realm except for the more condensed fighting spirit.

If you want to break through, you can only fight with people.

Or, if you want to break through, you have to kill!

"Hey!" Zhou Sen slowly opened his eyes and sighed.

Homicide!

Easier said than done.

In peacetime, it is not so easy to kill people unscrupulously, and although Zhou Sen is on the list of gangsters, he is not a great traitor, and it is impossible to let him kill innocents indiscriminately.

Huns!

Zhou Sen's eyes lit up, and as soon as he grasped the thick-backed long knife beside him, the surging battle intent was injected into the long knife, and the snowy blade of the long knife actually made a slight whistling sound, and the sound was murderous, with the killing and battle intent to destroy everything, as if thousands of troops were galloping.

The condensation of battle intent was like substance, rushing out under the influence of Zhou Sen's thoughts.

The prince of Hugh Tu, who killed that bullshit last time, has already formed a bond with Shan Yu, why not kill the grassland and kill Shan Yu!

The idea spread through Zhou Sen's brain like a wild weed.

Zhou Sen had to use "quiet" to curb this crazy idea.

Although Zhou Sen is now full of self-confidence, he is not arrogant enough to challenge the Huns alone.

It can be seen from the strength of the Wind Taishi and Hu Yansheng that the Huns are also Hidden Dragon and Crouching Tiger, not to mention, in addition to the four great masters of wind, rain, thunder and lightning, there are also ten warriors, if they fall into the tactics of the sea of people, it would be a miracle if they wanted to come back alive.

Of course, Zhou Sen is still afraid of one person, and that is Master Gongshu Yerong.

A skill that can compete with General Wuyuan, its strength can be imagined.

Zhou Sen didn't know how powerful General Wuyuan was, but it could be inferred from the fact that the four gods of the Han Empire were all protΓ©gΓ©s of General Wuyuan, and the degree of interest of General Wuyuan would never be in vain.

What if you go out of town every day?

Zhou Sen's heart moved.

Zhou Sen's current "speed" in the majestic realm has been perfected, and it is not a problem to run wildly, hundreds of miles a day. With speed, not only can you come and go freely, but you can also return to Wuchao City every few days to rest.

However, Zhou Sen quickly dispelled this unrealistic idea.

Regardless of the danger of going deep into the grassland, with Zhou Sen, a typical face of the Han Empire, after entering the grassland, it is difficult to find Shan Yu and those masters, and in that grassland, but the territory of the Huns, they can requisition a large army to besiege Zhou Sen at any time.

In the vast desert steppe, it is easy to get rid of a few thousand people, but what about tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands?

Shan Yu's family is in command of thirty-six major departments and seventy-two small departments, if Shan Yu wants to kill him at all costs to avenge Prince Xiu Tu, it is not impossible to collect all the troops and masters.

In addition to the above-mentioned dangers, the most important thing is that Zhou Sen is alone, lacking a channel to get news, and after going deep into the prairie, he will only fall into an endless pursuit and flee for his life.

There is another problem is also a problem, the current Wuchao City is not just to enter if you want to, if the city gate is closed when you come back from the grassland, then he will be unable to fly, Zhou Sen does not have the skill of the sword, it is a dream to climb into the city from the cliff of hundreds of battles.

In fact, Zhou Sen didn't know that although this Wuchao City was on the edge of the Dark Forest, the generation of the Wuchao City Mountain Range was also affected by the prohibition and could not fly with the sword.

Zhou Sen was at a loss.

If you want to break through the "battle" and enter the realm of "power", the highest realm of the majestic realm, you need to fight with real swords and guns, and at present, Zhou Sen lacks a cultivation environment for "war".

Perhaps, the reason why no one in the history of cultivating gods has practiced the "Invincible Cheats" is in this link, after all, except for the great era of war and chaos, it is extremely difficult to find a "war" cultivation environment.

Traditional cultivation of gods, most of them are looking for a place with beautiful mountains and rivers to live in seclusion, often for years, decades or even hundreds of years, and the cultivation mode of "Invincible Cheats" is completely contrary to the traditional cultivation of gods, in addition to the "posture" and "quiet" of the majestic realm, whether it is "speed" or "battle", or the highest level of "force", it requires some specific environment, which is easy to make superpowers give up halfway.

In the room, Zhou Sen pushed the two superpowers that seemed to be substance to the limit.

The Ugin Short Sword is on Zhou Sen's knee, during this time, Zhou Sen will try to use his superpowers to urge the Ugin Short Sword almost every day to enter the world of cultivation where the sword flies, but unfortunately, the Ugin Short Sword is often just a move, and then the input of superpowers is like a stone sinking into the sea.

Zhou Sen was not discouraged, and the occasional movement made him full of hope for Edgeworth's flight, and he still practiced tirelessly.

Now, the cultivation of "Invincible Cheats" has encountered a bottleneck, and Zhou Sen naturally hopes to make a breakthrough in superpowers.

If the "Dragon Spell" can provide Zhou Sen with a new path of cultivating the gods, then it is okay if the "Invincible Cheats" is not cultivated.

"Big brother, big brother, it's okay to get rid of you and stop for a while." Just when Zhou Sen poured superpowers into the Ugin short sword, the voice of Shi Dan Ling sounded in his mind.

"Ah...... Are you alive? ”

"Big brother, the monk is dizzy by your mighty superpowers every day, if you go on like this, even if you don't die today, you won't be able to live tomorrow." Shi Danling said with a sad face.

"I didn't want Edgeworth to fly yet." Zhou Sen sighed.

"Big brother, it's not like you, Edgeworth Flying needs to reach the realm of Edgeworth's flight...... Let's take a simple analogy, your current strength can only pick up 500 catties, even if you can easily pick up 500 catties by playing tricks, but if you can't do 1,000 catties, you can't do it. You've now reached the early stage of Edgeworth's flight, and even if you can make the sword move, it's just a move, and it's useless to spend any more energy......"

"What's the solution?" Zhou Sen sighed.

"Monk remembers, you didn't reach the critical point last time, and now you have been promoted, what is the reason?"

Zhou Sen told Shi Danling about the battle outside Wuchao City.

"Fight! It seems that you are born to be a hard-working person, and it is only possible to improve your strength by fighting non-stop in the face of adversity. The invincible cheats you cultivate and the dragon spell seem to complement each other, and if you want to break through your superpowers, you must cultivate the invincible cheats. ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ But...... However, there is no suitable cultivation environment. By the way, monk, you should have something like cultivating mysteries, why don't you get me a simple book for new cultivation? Zhou Sen said expectantly.

"Big brother, the monk said that your current situation is no longer a matter of cultivating mysteries, your age is no longer suitable for cultivating gods, and it is useless to give you ordinary mystical cultivators, but it is the invincible secret book that is of some benefit to you, you yourself have said that Master Dingxu has also mentioned this problem. Don't underestimate Master Dingxu, she is very famous in the Divine Cultivation Realm. Don't be cranky, for now, you can only insist on cultivating the invincible cheats and dragon spells to see if there can be a miracle. ”

"Hold on!"

Zhou Sen could only nod in frustration.

This time, Zhou Sen was completely dead and strengthened his determination to continue to cultivate the "Invincible Cheats".

For a long time, Zhou Sen felt that "Invincible Cheats" was a bit unreliable, his dream was to fly with the sword and become a real superpower, and what made him vomit blood was that the three realms of the majestic realm, the realm of the clear eye and the realm of the wisdom of the heart in the "Invincible Cheats" could not fly with the sword.

Fortunately, in addition to "Invincible Cheats", Zhou Sen still has a glimmer of hope.

"Dragon Spell" and "Invincible Cheats" seem to have complementary seconds, and if you enter the realm of "power", it is likely that you will be able to fly with Edgeworth.

Zhou Sen wanted Edgeworth to fly too much.

Zhou Sen really wanted to go back to the Shen family to see Shen Huimin, see the two twin nuns, see the Nine Heavens Xuannu, and of course, the most important thing was to return to the Five Star Domains......

……

"By the way, monk, how are you doing?" Zhou Sen asked.

"It's not good, in order to save you, the little necromantic qi that the monk finally gathered completely dissipated, if it weren't for the boat, the monk's little life would have been almost lost." The monk said sadly.

"What then?"

"What else can I do? Take your time, the monk is not a ghost now, hey......"

"Don't worry, I'll make you a scattered immortal." Zhou Sen comforted.

"Hopefully, the monk doesn't know what he is now, it's both an evil spirit and a powerful soul, it can't reach the sky, it can't touch the ground, if the monk dies, I don't know if the legendary Lord of Hades accepts the monk, the monk is worried......"

"Ahem......" Zhou Sen remembered the god of death in his brain, he was not sure if the monk would be under the control of the god of death after his death, most likely not, it should be

"Zhou Sen, the monk recently healed his wounds in the Ugin short sword, thinking about it, thinking about it, thinking about it, and suddenly thinking of a question."

"Huh?"

"What do the monks think, where did those superpowers who became immortals go? Where did those ancient gods and Buddhas live? The monk thought about it, and suddenly opened his mouth, ......"

"What's the matter?"

"There is a magic circle space in this Ugin short sword, which can absorb superpowers to drive the sword to fly, and it can also allow monks to live and cultivate, according to this reason, will there be a space like this Ugin short sword, but the space is huge, and it can be inhabited by many immortals...... Perhaps, that space is like the Continent of Gods and Demons, like the Han Empire......"

"This, it's too complicated, however, there is also room for the Qiankun Ring, what you said may be true, but if you want to verify it, you can only verify it after you become an immortal, and there is no point in discussing it now." Zhou Sen secretly marveled at the imagination of the great monk.

"Yes, too, the monk is still an honest cultivator. By the way, although your two superpowers are not enough, the killing aura is extremely heavy, and the monk lives in the Ugin short sword, and he really can't bear the fierce superpower, you still have to find another flying sword to toss, otherwise, that day the monk will be made by you to scatter his soul and never be reborn. ”

"Well, I still have a few flying swords...... No, it was the flying sword of several disciples of the Lei Yin Sect, and it couldn't be used...... Don't worry, I'll figure it out. Zhou Sen immediately vetoed, he didn't want to reveal his identity and become the target of the world's No. 1 God Cultivator Sect.

"Okay, thank you, monk, you can cultivate slowly, the monk wants to refine that ship."

"Refining the Yin-Yang Ship?" Zhou Sen was stunned.

"Of course, after refining the Yin-Yang Boat, the monk's soul will be integrated with the Yin-Yang Boat, and the monk will not have to live in the Ugin Short Sword, but will directly possess your divine consciousness."

"Come on."

"Come on!"

The two encouraged each other and practiced separately.

In order to avoid harassing Shi Danling's cultivation, Zhou Sen changed the Ebony Divine Wood Sword, but unfortunately, although the Ebony Divine Wood Sword was a ferocious ancient killing weapon, it was a piece of dead wood, and there was no superpower-driven magic circle at all.

Although the quality of the flying sword of Senior Brother Lei Yinmen is good, it is not a divine weapon, it is on par with the Ugin short sword, but it is much larger.

If the Ugin short sword would occasionally move, then the flying sword of the senior brother did not react at all to Zhou Sen's condensed two superpowers. Obviously, Senior Brother's flying sword has a private ban, and it needs to be refined and prohibited, and only by becoming the new owner of the flying sword can he drive the flying sword.

Zhou Sen's current superpowers are suppressed by the realm, and he can't even fly the sword, so naturally he can't refine the flying sword array of the senior brother, let alone reimpose the ban, so he has to give up, honestly cultivate the majestic realm, and cultivate over and over again.

Today, the wind and the sun were beautiful, and Zhou Sen, who had been sluggish in his cultivation, was a little upset, and opened the door to the garden to bask in the sun.

At this time, it is already autumn, the weather is getting cooler, and the sun is warm and drowsy.

As soon as Zhou Sen's buttocks sat down, the kitten rushed in with a gust of wind, as if he had been peeping not far away.

"Brother Sen, you're finally out of the customs." Lu Xiaomei hugged Zhou Sen with tears on her face.

"What's the matter! Something wrong with Hanyu? Looking at the tearful Lu kitten, Zhou Sen was startled, thinking that something had happened to Hanyu.

"Hanyu is fine, I have something, she agreed to let me be a soldier, woo...... Be a soldier......"

"Oh......" Zhou Sen breathed a sigh of relief, "to be clear." ”

"My dad said that I was so lazy and tired that I had nothing to do all day to make trouble for him, so I entrusted the relationship to find the guard of Wuchao City and let me go to the army to exercise and exercise, I ...... I don't agree...... said that Hanyu disagreed, then you know, my dad found Hanyu directly, and the two didn't say a few words, and they hit it off...... Woohoo......"

"Isn't it nice to be a soldier! Why are you so scared? ”

"Brother Sen, I'm fainting! To be a soldier is to fight, to fight is to kill, think about it, if I go to the battlefield and before the war starts, I am frightened and fainted by the blood all over the ground, what if I am trampled on the hands and feet and head by the horse? What should I do if I am hit by a random arrow? ”

"Ahem...... That's a problem. What does Hanyu say? ”

"She said that being a soldier does not necessarily mean that you will go to the front line, and she said that the guards of Wuchao City have a good relationship with the Lu family, and they will not send me to the front line, but just let me exercise in the barracks."

"In that case, what are you worried about?"

"I'm afraid...... No, I'm not going to be a soldier anyway. Brother Sen, you have to think of a way for me! ”

Lu Xiaomei hugged Zhou Sen's arm and kept shaking and coquettish, Zhou Sen had a chill, shook his head again and again, trying to get rid of this tower-like man.

"Kitten, looking for you everywhere, you run there...... Brother, you're out! Hanyu, with a dignified face, slowly walked into the garden.

"Hmm." Zhou Sen looked at Hanyu with a smile, just a few months, Hanyu seemed to have changed as a person, gestures, extremely dignified, and Fengyi, who had a housemother.

"Brother Sen, you have to save me." When Lu Xiaomei saw Hanyu coming, she was immediately shocked, and hugged Zhou Sen more and more desperately and didn't let go.

"Ahem......"

"Brother, I made you laugh. Look at him like this, don't you go to the army? Hanyu glared at the kitten fiercely.

"Hehe, the kitten is still a child's heart, and it really needs to be honed and honed in the army." Zhou Sen nodded.

"Ah...... Brother Sen, you cheat me! Lu Xiaomei looked at Zhou Sen with wide eyes, with an incredulous expression. Lu Xiaomei regarded Zhou Sen as the last straw, and he didn't expect that at this critical moment, Zhou Sen not only did not lend a helping hand, but also fell into the ground.

"Look at you like this, what kind of body does a big man hug the arm of another big man! If you don't go to be a soldier, who will be a soldier? ”

"You...... You...... Anyway, I won't go to kill me, besides, I'm just newly married, and I want to inherit the Lu family. In case I die on the battlefield, wouldn't the Lu family have no queen. ”

"Don't worry, there are already people who will carry on the lineage." Hanyu stroked her slightly bulging belly.

"Ahhh......h

"Congratulations." Zhou Sen congratulated.

"Thank you, brother. Kitten, anyway, the matter has been decided, you have to go, you have to go, you have to go, it's only a few years, our home is in Wuchao City, we will open up the joint, arrange an idle job for you, even if it's a war, you don't have to go to the battlefield, if you want to see us, you can go home at any time. ”

"I ...... I...... Don't go ......" Lu Xiaomei looked at Hanyu's stomach in a reluctant, and then his eyes fell on Zhou Sen's body, and suddenly his eyes lit up, "Brother Sen, why don't you go with me as a soldier?" ”

"I ......" Zhou Sen was stunned.

"Yes, yes, let's be soldiers together, take care of each other, in case the kitten faints on the battlefield, Brother Sen can also get a shield or something to cover his face, so as not to be trampled by the horse. The worst is that you can also collect the body of a kitten. "The current Lu kitten is extremely afraid of being a soldier, and in the case of being unable to fight, he pulled Zhou Sen into the water in the spirit of having one more companion.

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

Zhou Sen, who was speechless, moved in his heart.

If you can join the army, you can participate in the battle in the name of it.

"Brother Sen, don't worry, the kitten's master is a strong man, and he is a high authority in the military land, you and the kitten are soldiers together, and you will not suffer a loss, and you will be guaranteed to eat and drink spicy food, hehe." Seeing the expression of intention on Zhou Sen's face, Lu Xiaomei immediately struck while the iron was hot.

"Idle is idle anyway, think about it first."

"Brother, if you and the kitten are soldiers together and take care of each other, then I will rest assured. Brother, don't worry, the master said that he has already made a connection, even if it is a war, he will not go to the battlefield, that is, arrange some idle positions and mix up some political capital for the Lu family. ”

"Hehe, Master Lu is far-sighted. Hanyu, I'll think about it first and I'll write back to you tomorrow. ”

"Okay, brother, can we have lunch together?"

"No, I'll have to go to the Spark Merchant House later."

……

Seeing Hanyu's petite and delicate body pulling the five big and three thick Lu kittens away, a smile of relief appeared on the corner of Zhou Sen's mouth.

Zhou Sen returned to the room and got in touch with Shi Danling.

"Monk, you say, how about I go to be a soldier?" Zhou Sen was hesitating, hoping to listen to Shi Danling's opinion.

"Good. However, there is no point in just being a soldier, the main thing is to fight, and if you don't, being a soldier is just a waste of time for you. ”

"There will definitely be a war!" Zhou Sen affirmed.

"Why are you so sure?" Shi Danling asked suspiciously.

"Do you remember, the last time I went to loot the camp of the Hun tribes, the arrows hidden in the fixed tent were piled up, and there were countless horse horn bows, if it wasn't for the preparation for war, those nomads would never have wasted money to make so many bows and arrows. Moreover, what I saw was only a tribe, and for the thirty-six major divisions and the seventy-two small divisions, the weapons hidden were only the tip of the iceberg. ”

"Reasonable, it seems that the Huns have been preparing for war all along."

"Yes, now the Huns are extremely active, not long ago, even the prince approached Wuchao City to spy on intelligence, I think, war is already unavoidable, it's just a matter of time before war breaks out."

"Yes, according to what you said, it is estimated that Shan Yu is cleaning up internal differences, and once there is a unity of opinion, war will break out."

"Yes."

"Then go as a soldier! Hehe, although those soldiers are not superpowers, the spirits of death on the battlefield of killing are all at the level of military souls, and the spirits of death are fierce and long, not easy to escape, and if refined, they are extremely condensed...... Good...... That's great...... Zhou Sen, you will join the army immediately, and the cultivation method of your invincible cheats is needed in turbulent times, and you just happened to catch up with ...... No, it didn't happen to be just in time, it should be said that it was you, the scourge, who started the war. ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

Zhou Sen had the urge to strangle Shi Danling.

That night, Zhou Sen went to Xinghuo Trading House.

Through Zhou Sen's capital injection last time, Xinghuo Commercial Bank is thriving now, but in just over a month, the exhibition hall has expanded a lot, even at night, the exhibition hall is full of people.

In the exhibition hall, all kinds of characters, mercenaries, and adventurers shuttle, among them, there are many people with powerful superpowers.

In front of the counter, there was also an endless stream of people trading, all kinds of mountain goods and elixirs were piled up, and the horse teams in the courtyard were unloading goods, and they were in full swing.

In the hall, there is a huge task bar, and inside the task bar, there are all kinds of strange tasks, some need rare birds and beasts, and some need strange flowers and plants, it can be said that there is everything.

A lot of people are looking for the latest Task Guide booklet at the counter.

Now, there has been a trend that anyone who enters the Dark Forest, whether a mercenary or a superpower, will bring with them a copy of the "Quest Guide" booklet provided free of charge by the Spark Firm, because there are so many quests that adventurers will keep a copy in order to avoid returning empty-handed.

Zhou Sen casually glanced at the task bar posted on the wall and found that there were many elixir tasks in it.

Because of Shen Huimin's alchemy, Zhou Sen was no stranger to some medicinal materials, and immediately saw that those elixirs were all needed for alchemy by superpowers.

It seems that the Spark Firm is not just doing secular business, and even some superpowers have entrusted the Spark Firm to issue tasks.

It is very likely that some sects of god cultivation will also entrust tasks, after all, this kind of commission does not have to pay any price, and it is similar to the bounty list, the only difference is that the current bounty is to find something, while the bandit list is to reward killing.

Now, Xinghuo Trading House is a huge logistics center and has become a commodity distribution center in Wuchao City.

This business model reminded Zhou Sen of the Shen family, and there are many similarities between the two, however, Xinghuo Commercial Bank is a high value-added business, while the Shen family is a big profit and a small profit, and in terms of profits, the Shen family cannot be compared with Xinghuo Commercial Bank at all.

Zhou Sen met with several shareholders and finalized some major affairs of Xinghuo Commercial Bank, Zhou Sen mentioned the idea of joining the army.

To Zhou Sen's surprise, his idea of joining the army actually received strong support from the three of them.

After communicating, Zhou Sen understood the thoughts of the three.

At present, Xinghuo Commercial Bank is in Wuchao City, which is also the jurisdiction of the military, many things, are inextricably linked with the military, and need to deal with the military, although the relationship between the Lu family and the military is good, but it is the relationship between the Lu family, not the relationship of Xinghuo Commercial Bank, the three of them hope that Zhou Sen can establish his influence in the military, and enlisting in the army is the most direct and effective way to establish a relationship with the military.

It is worth mentioning here that the relationship between the Lu family and the military is extremely far-reaching, and the main reason for this is that the Lu family provides logistical support for the military, and part of the supply of military materials is monopolized by the Lu family.

During the conversation, Zhou Sen found that the three shareholders seemed to be a little resentful of the Lu family's borrowing Hanyu to invest in Xinghuo Commercial Bank, and faintly, they were more wary, but what made Zhou Sen happy was that the three of them were unanimously praised by Hanyu.

Zhou Sen can understand the concerns of the three of them, after all, this is Wuchao City, the Lu family has been operating here for nearly twenty years, it is deep-rooted, and the relationship network is even more intertwined, if the Lu family wants to be unfavorable to the Xinghuo Trading Bank, the Xinghuo Trading Bank has no means of countermeasures.

There is no doubt that this is a good phenomenon for Zhou Sen, because with the checks and balances of the Lu family, even if the three shareholders have different intentions, they will not dare to act rashly.

Of course, whether it is good or bad, Zhou Sen is not very interested.

For Zhou Sen, he is not here, Xinghuo Commercial Bank does not mean much to him, even if he goes bankrupt tomorrow, he will never feel distressed at all, after all, he has not forgotten his identity as the number one bandit in the interstellar world, and the business he does is tens of billions at every turn.

In the end, the three shareholders reached a unanimous decision, and the three shareholders contributed capital to pave the way for Zhou Sen to establish his own strength in the military.

Zhou Sen knew that it would be in vain to refuse, so he could only nod his head and agree.

He naturally understood why the three shareholders were willing to contribute, and the reason was very simple, that is, to hide from the Lu family and beware of the Lu family. If the three of them contribute privately, they don't have to go through the accounts, and the Lu family will not be able to detect it.

Zhou Sen was also helpless about the thoughts of the three of them, so he could only appease them.

After the meeting, Zhou Sen walked around the Xinghuo Trading House alone and went home.

At this time, it was already late at night on the street, and the autumn wind was whirling and there was a depression.

Zhou Sen walked lonely on the street.

Inexplicably, he remembered the two nuns of Ming Xian and Mingkong.

When he was with Ming Xian and Mingkong, Zhou Sen was thinking about how to escape from the "clutches" of the two nuns, and now, Zhou Sen found that he was actually a little reluctant.

Although the two nuns are arrogant, their thoughts are simple, what they are thinking, at a glance, with them, you don't need to use your brain to see what they are thinking in their hearts. Zhou Sen inexplicably remembered Situ Glacier and Situ Iceberg.

Zhou Sen misses that kind of life a little.

Perhaps, thinking about the beautiful scenery every night......

A wry smile appeared on the corner of Zhou Sen's mouth, shook his head, shook off the two graceful and smooth bodies in his mind, and looked up at the majestic city wall, which was dark, and the soldiers patrolling could be faintly seen.

After enlisting in the army, will you be like them in this boring patrol on this sloomy night?

What if one is arranged to be idle?

Thinking of what Lu Xiaomei said, Zhou Sen suddenly became a little worried.

What Zhou Sen wants is the opportunity to fight and kill the enemy and practice "war", instead of treating the army as a nursing home like Lu Xiaomei.

Immediately, Zhou Sen thought that his worries were unnecessary, because the three shareholders of Xinghuo Commercial Bank secretly bought off the relationship, and when the time came, he would not go wherever he wanted.

After figuring it out, Zhou Sen was full of confidence.

The next day, the enlistment went extremely smoothly.

Master Lu personally took Zhou Sen and Lu Kitten to Wuchao City to meet the conscription officials.

Wuchao City is a collective name, and like other places, it is named after the city. And in the same way, Wuchao City is a city, and moreover, it is a city within a city.

Wuchao City is built in the canyon near the end of the Han Empire side of the city built by the cliff, the city is not Putianfu Pool, there are two city gates, one inside, the outer city gate is closed, can resist the invasion of foreign enemies, the inner city gate is closed, can prevent the infiltration of spies.

Between the two gates, the length is more than 50 zhang, forming a city within a city, which serves as a barracks for stationed soldiers.

There are 200,000 soldiers guarding Wuchao City, because Wuchao City is steep, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and Wuchao City is limited by the canyon, the internal space is extremely narrow, and there is a lack of water sources, there are only 20,000 defenders in peacetime, and the remaining 180,000 people are stationed in three barracks less than 50 miles from Wuchao City.

Zhou Sen observed the landform in Wuchao City all the way, and soon, he arrived at the recruitment office.

Master Lu is really a figure in Wuchao City, and the soldiers who have a little status along the way will greet him, and the so-called interview is just a formality, and the interview officer just glanced at it and signed a series of enlistment documents, and even did not verify Zhou Sen's identity.

After going through the formalities for enlisting in the army, Master Lu told him thousands of times, and left after some chatter.

Zhou Sen and Lu Xiaomei sat for a long time and no one cared, until the afternoon, a fat soldier rushed into the room, found the interview officer who started, and did some handover procedures, and then, Zhou Sen was taken by the soldier to a warehouse in the barracks to wait, the fat man seemed to be very busy, and he didn't have time to talk to Zhou Sen at all, so he left in a hurry after leaving the two of them.

After nearly two hours of waiting, the sweaty fat soldier appeared, followed by a dozen disheveled soldiers leading dozens of short-legged donkeys, as if they were deserters escaping from the battle.

Zhou Sen and Lu Kitten looked at each other.

Is this a military man?

Looking at the dozen or so soldiers leading a short-legged donkey, a trace of doubt rose in the hearts of the two.

"Are you Lu Kitten?" The fat man's fat hand rubbed a handful on his forehead, and then, throwing it into the air, sweat spilled out of his hand, like a fairy scattering flowers, and then, with the other hand, he probed into the crack of his ass and grabbed two handfuls in an extremely dirty and obscene motion, and breathed a long sigh of relief, revealing a comfortable look.

"Yes......" Lu Xiaomei straightened his chest like the other soldiers in Wuchao City, but he didn't know how to call the fat man, he just stared at the fat man's military uniform without military rank in a daze.

"I am Captain Han of the Logistics Department, and I belong to the Third Infantry Battalion of Wuchao City. Anyway, it's not a regular army, you can be casual, look at me uncomfortable, just call me captain, if it's pleasing to the eye, it's okay to call the fat brother. ”

"Captain...... No...... No, fat brother, fat brother. ”

"Hehe, yes, look at your five big and three rough appearances, mix with me, that's right! Are you Zhou Sen? Captain Han's gaze fell on Zhou Sen.

"Yes, fat man." Zhou Sen followed the example of Lu Xiaomei and stood upright.

"Mmmm, you're a little weaker, you need to strengthen your nutrition. Rest assured, our logistics department, nothing else, there is a great nutrition. Captain Han said with a smile.

"Thank you, fat brother."

Zhou Sen secretly smiled bitterly, in this world, there are probably not many people who stand next to the behemoth of Lu Xiaocat and do not look fragile.

In fact, as long as he is not wearing a scholarly robe, Zhou Sen's figure is very strong, but Lu Xiaomei's body is too strong, more than a head taller than Zhou Sen, in front of Lu Xiaomei, Zhou Sen's sturdy body also looks weak.

"It's dark, let's go on our way."

Captain Han sighed, waved his big hand, and the dozen or so dirty soldiers led the horses out of Wuchao City, chaotic, undisciplined, not like soldiers at all.

At this time, although the sky was a little dark, there was still bright light, and Lu Kitten's majestic figure was particularly dazzling.

In order to avoid being discovered, Lu Kitten's head was about to burrow into the crotch, for fear of being seen by acquaintances.

In fact, it was not only Lu Xiaomei who was afraid of losing face, but also Zhou Sen who also had a fever.

If you walk with a group of well-trained and majestic soldiers, the two of them will naturally have a lot of face, but this group of soldiers is really not like soldiers, if you take off the clothes on your body, you are no different from the vulgar porter, or even not as pure as the porter, but like those idle second-rate people.

Fortunately, this group of soldiers also seemed to be in a hurry to go back, and they were not verbose, and soon left Wuchao City.

After dark, the group had already moved away from Wuchao City, and when they looked back, Wuchao City was like a wild beast entrenched at the foot of the mountain, which made people feel extremely depressed.

The moon is bright and the stars are sparse, everyone seems to be very familiar with this road, they didn't light the torches, they chatted enthusiastically in the dark, no one paid attention to Zhou Sen and Lu Xiaomei, but it was the fat man Han, who would say a few words to Lu Xiaomei from time to time, but ignored Zhou Sen.

After walking for two hours, they came to an inn, and when everyone came to the front of the inn, someone immediately opened the door, as if someone had been waiting.

The inn was closed, and the hall was unusually quiet, but there was a steaming table of very rich food and wine ready.

A group of soldiers seemed to be extremely familiar with this place, and they were not polite, so they walked straight to the table and drank happily, Lu Xiaomei was also greeted to the table by Han Fat, and Han Fatzi saw Lu Xiaomei pulling Zhou Sen, so he had to lukewarmly beckoning Zhou Sen to sit up.

After eating and drinking, everyone changed to a clean table, and the shopkeeper served fragrant hot tea.

"Fat brother, you're all ready, here, you count." A thin old man bent down to Captain Han's side and put a small burden in front of Captain Han with a flattering face.

"Hmm." Captain Han nodded, with a reserved expression, and there was a faint hint of official authority. Zhou Sen sighed secretly, he was too familiar with the face of such a villain.

After the thin old man handed over the burden, it was not much, and he nodded and retreated.

The soldiers drinking tea were silent, and more than a dozen pairs of eyes fell on the burden on Captain Han's chest.

Captain Han glanced at Zhou Sen, then at the burden, and hesitated.

"Fat brother, I'll go to the bathroom." Zhou Sen hurriedly stood up.

"Forget it, sit down, you and the kitten are also friends, fat brother, I am also a character with a head and a face, as the so-called person who sees has a share, you can also be regarded as having met, even if you have a share, speak in the future, pay attention, don't get into trouble."

"Yes, yes." Zhou Sen sat down slowly, in fact, he also wanted to know what was going on in that baggage.

Captain Han made a sound in his nostrils, and then, opened the baggage.

Zhou Sen was immediately disappointed, he originally thought that there was something good in the baggage, but it was a thick stack of imperial coins.

Captain Han didn't speak, he counted the imperial coins, pondered for a while, seemed to be calculating something, and then, began to divide the imperial coins into more than a dozen parts according to the heads, and after dividing them, Captain Han pushed the money to their chests.

"Everyone saves some flowers, and the investigation has been tight recently."

"Yes, yes, thank you, fat brother."

A group of soldiers each picked up the Imperial Coin on their chests and put it in their arms.

Zhou Sen found that Han Fatzi had more than half of those imperial coins, and there were as many kittens as those soldiers, but he had the least.

Zhou Sen, who was quiet, had already realized that this was a share of spoils.

After everyone divided the money, they hurried all night in the dark.

When it was early in the morning, the group arrived at the Jiudaogui barracks.

The three barracks guarding Wuchao City are the Nine Daogui Barracks, the Maple Forest Barracks, and the Tanburgh Barracks.

These three barracks not only guard the natural danger of Wuchao City, but also guard three military arteries, and among them, Jiudaogui is the only waterway from Wuchao City to the outside world, and the supplies of Wuchao City are basically imported from the Jiudaogui barracks.

The Maple Grove Barracks is close to the Dark Forest, and in addition to garrisoning, its main role is training.

The Tanburgh Barracks is also a natural hazard, guarding the road to the imperial capital.

Among the three barracks, Jiudaogui was the busiest and the most important military position, because if the enemy broke through Wuchao City and captured Jiudaogui, he could drive straight into it and follow the waterway to a river 200 miles away from the imperial capital.

Because of the important geographical location of Jiudaogui and its economic link as Wuchao City, there are more than 80,000 garrisons here.

80,000 soldiers is only a figure announced by the imperial government, but in fact, the garrison in Jiudaogui is far more than 80,000, and the total number of troops of various branches exceeds 120,000, or even more.

The Han Empire announced to the outside world that the total garrison of Wuchao City was 200,000, but in fact, the total garrison of Wuchao City had already exceeded 300,000, and the so-called 200,000 were only the regular army of the empire, and the remaining 100,000 were some non-combatants without regular establishment, mainly reservists who maintained military equipment and did some rough work.

The regular number of combatants refers to the conscription of soldiers in the Han Empire through regular channels, and all the benefits are borne by the emperor's ** ministry, and every soldier is well documented.

The reservists were recruited from Wuchao City.

The supreme commander of Wuchao City has a certain number of conscription rights, and the quota of the Golden Melon Heavenly God in Wuchao City is 100,000, so the total garrison of Wuchao City has reached 300,000.

The so-called reservists, in fact, are miscellaneous soldiers, who do not carry out military training at all, and mainly serve Wuchao City. The treatment of miscellaneous servants and regular soldiers is also very different, and the status is far from the same.

Like Captain Han, he is a miscellaneous officer, although he is a captain, he only has a set of lowest-level armor, and he doesn't even have a military rank.

Everyone entered the barracks in the dark, and the people in the barracks seemed to be very familiar with Captain Han, so they just asked a few casual questions and let them enter the heavily guarded barracks.

The group touched the barracks and slept separately.

Although the barracks were simple, there were a lot of empty bunks, and Zhou Sen and Lu Kitten endured the pungent stench and found a bed to rest.

Nothing was said all night.

The next day, Zhou Sen and Lu Xiaomei got up early to clean up, waiting for Captain Han to take them through the formalities of enlistment, what made the two vomit blood was that Captain Han fell asleep and snored loudly, without the slightest sign of getting up.

Not only Captain Han, but the other soldiers also slept with their heads covered.

At three o'clock in the morning, a group of soldiers got up one after another, went to the canteen to eat some cold steamed buns and pickles, and Captain Han took Lu Xiaomei Zhou Sen to an office to go through some formalities, and received a few sets of shabby armor and rusty weapons and daily necessities.

Back in the barracks, Captain Han asked Lu Xiaomei to stay in the barracks, and then took Zhou Sen to the kitchen, muttered a few words to a fat-headed and big-eared cook, and then left Zhou Sen behind and left.

"Come here." The middle-aged chef with a fat head, big ears and a greasy face glanced at Zhou Sen angrily, and the spoon in his hand struck loudly on the stove.

"You will follow me in the future, I will be Jin Xiaopang, and I will be called Uncle Jin."

"Hello Uncle Jin, I'm Zhou Sen."

Zhou Sen hurriedly nodded his head to show goodwill, but secretly kept muttering, this guy's waist is thicker than a bucket, and he is actually called Jin Xiaopang, which makes those little fat people embarrassed! At the same time, Zhou Sen thought of the huge Lu kitten.

It seems that the names of the parents of this Wuchao City are very distinctive.

"Are you laughing at my 'Chubby' name?" Jin Xiaopang looked at Zhou Sen coldly, as if he wanted to see through Zhou Sen's internal organs.

"Ahem...... No, no, no ......."

"Stand aside and familiarize yourself, don't stand here and get in the way, it's about to have lunch, Lao Tzu is busy." Grandma's, that fat man of the dog days, likes to stuff waste into me......" Jin Xiaopang, who was scolding in his mouth, stretched out his greasy hand and pulled Zhou Sen aside, and then, he picked up a basket of radishes cut into large pieces on the ground, poured them into the boiling water, and then picked up a huge iron spatula and stirred it in the pot.

Seeing the sweat on Jin Xiaopang's forehead keep falling into the pot, Zhou Sen felt sick to his stomach, he had eaten some pickles just now, looking at this method, it is estimated that there is a lot of sweat in the pickles......

……

Zhou Sen was bored and wandered around in the huge kitchen.

The kitchen was busy, and no one paid attention to Zhou Sen.

Was it assigned to the kitchen?

Zhou Sen could only smile bitterly.

Zhou Sen came to practice "war", not to learn to cook a big pot of rice.

However, looking at this situation, the assignment in this kitchen is already a complete boat, and if you want to transfer out, you can only find a way later.

I have to find an opportunity to inform the three shareholders of Xinghuo Firm, so that they can take care of their activities, and it is best to transfer him to Wuchao City as a border guard, so that they can easily enter and exit the grassland.

I can only mix it up for the time being......

"Zhou Sen!" Just as Zhou Sen was thinking, a voice sounded in the kitchen, as if it was tearing open his throat and roaring, extremely harsh.

"In!" Zhou Sen shivered, and hurriedly ran towards Jin Xiaopang.

"It's time to eat, ready!"

"Yes Yes ......"

Zhou Sen learned from Jin Xiaopang, observed the chefs around him, and put the dishes in large pots and pots according to their methods.

Just as the kitchen was ready, a group of soldiers in armor and with dark faces entered the cafeteria.

Looking at the solemn faces and neat formations, Zhou Sen's heart beat wildly.

Only after entering the barracks, Zhou Sen was extremely disappointed with the soldiers of the Han Empire, and now, the contempt in his heart was overturned in an instant, this is the real soldier of the Han Empire......

Hundreds of soldiers came in to eat one after another, but there was no sound, and the needles in the huge canteen could be heard, and only the slight collision of utensils could be heard.

Looking at the straight bodies sitting there like a soldier like a mountain, Zhou Sen felt a sense of suffocation.

"Boy, it's your first time entering the barracks, right?" Looking at Zhou Sen's surprised expression, Jin Erpang sneered.

"Yes, Uncle Kim."

"It's nothing, you'll get used to it slowly, and if you go to the No. 1 cafeteria, you'll be scared to pee your pants."

"No. 1 Canteen ......"

"Silly boy, you don't think that the Jiudao Barracks is just a canteen, right?" Jin Xiaopang laughed, with a lewd look.

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

"In Jiudaogui, there are fifty canteens like this, and our canteen is the No. 29 canteen."

"Oh."

"Okay, you'll find out later, if you're hungry, find something to eat yourself."

"Thank you, Uncle Kim."

"Thank you, you think I'm a fat man like Han and I can make a lot of money, and I will be more quick with my hands and feet in the future, here, although there is no benefit, it is still okay to eat well, and I guarantee that you can become a glorious big fat man in a few months."

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

Zhou Sen looked around, and cold sweat suddenly broke out on his forehead, and sure enough, in this kitchen, most of the eyes were fat people with fat heads and big ears.

Hey!

There is one who is not fat.

Zhou Sen immediately found a young man who was busy by the stove, the young man was too thin, and in this kitchen where the fat people were crowded, it seemed to stand out from the crowd, which was extremely conspicuous.

Almost immediately, Zhou Sen concluded that the young man should also be a newcomer, because his movements seemed very rusty, and most importantly, the expression on his face showed a timid look, which was very different from the chefs in this kitchen.

At this time, the cooks were drinking around a large cauldron, which was steaming hot and fragrant, and they were holding bowls of wine one by one, their faces red and their ears red.

Zhou Sen picked up a basin and pretended to pass by to take a look, only to see that in the pot was a large piece of oily braised pork.

No wonder they are all fat, and it is strange that they are not fat when they eat such a small stove.
