Chapter 53: Military Rank (I)

After the Dao heroes came to Xiliang County, they were stationed in the military camp in the north of the suburbs. The other officers and men of the barracks practiced day and night, and the military regulations were strict. And these Taoist heroes are all loose cultivators, too loose, just take this opportunity to familiarize them with the rules of the army.

Two days later, a group of Taoist priests wearing uniform white robes came to the barracks. These Taoist priests all wore long swords on their waists, wore crowns and tied their hair, and stepped on tiger cloud boots, which looked refreshed, not comparable to Jiang Chen's scattered cultivation in the rivers and lakes.

"Senior Lan, who are these?" Jiang Chen asked suspiciously.

Lan Jiusi said: "They are all Taoist cultivators who worship the Sword Temple. The Sword Worship is a medium force attached to the Chengtian Sect. Your Daoist army, recruited from all over the world, has a total of more than 1,000 people, all under the unified command of the Taoist cultivators who worship the sword view. ”

"Isn't this march and battle commanded by Senior Lan?" Jiang Chen was stunned.

Lan Jiusi shook his head: "Lan is just a businessman. The task is to summon you to wait for the rivers and lakes to disperse, and when the Ziqing Dao people who worship the Sword View come, Lan will hand over the matter and will leave the military camp here!"

As he spoke, there was an exclamation from the barracks. The crowd looked into the air. I saw an old man in mid-air, stepping on a three-foot flying sword, and flying slowly in the wind! When all the sergeants saw this scene, they were all shocked! What's more, they had already begun to kneel down and bow down.

"Imperial Sword Technique!" Jiang Wu was surprised and delighted, although there was also this trick in the "Tianxuan Sword Technique", but it had to be cultivated to the third layer before it could be used, Jiang Wu had not completed the cultivation of the first layer of swordsmanship now, so naturally it was far from being able to display it.

"This is the rumored Dao master!" Jiang Chen was also eye-opening: "Cultivating to his realm, he can be regarded as half an immortal!"

Lan Jiusi snorted coldly and said softly: "Hmph! In the Dao Court, there are many existences ten times more powerful than him!, but he will not be like him to swagger through the market and openly show off the Dao Law in front of ordinary soldiers, it is against the rules of the Dao Court!"

Although he said this, his face was immediately full of smiles, and he stepped forward to greet the old Daoist who came from the sword, bowed his hand, and said: "Ziqing Daoyou, I haven't seen you for many years, and Daoyou's swordsmanship has improved a lot, congratulations!"

Ziqing Daoist didn't dare to slack off on Lan Jiusi, he replied: "Lan Daoyou is polite, compared to Lan Daoyou's peerless learning, the swordsmanship of the poor Dao is just a small skill of carving insects!"

Lan Jiusi smiled slightly: "Where is it! Lan Mou is just a businessman now, Dao Fa or something, he has long neglected to cultivate, but I'm afraid that he has almost forgotten it!"

After the two of them were polite, they walked into the main hall of the barracks together, and Lan Jiusi took out a long list of Daoists and completed the handover with the Ziqing Daoist.

In the afternoon of the same day, all the Taoist heroes received an order to prepare to accept the Taoist assessment presided over by the Taoist cultivator of the sword worship audience, and the military rank and position were assigned according to the results of the assessment.

The Dao heroes lined up in a long line and came to the military academy field, ready to be assessed. In the military academy field, the Ziqing Daoist sat on the general's platform, and dozens of sword worshippers stood on both sides.

Ziqing Daoist said loudly: "Fellow Daoists of the rivers and lakes, poor Dao Ziqing, temporarily serve as the master of the Sword Worship Observatory. This time, the frontier military situation was urgent, and the Daoist Court was presided over by Chengtianzong, and recruited all the Taoist friends of the rivers and lakes to form the Daozi Army......"

After a rather impassioned speech, it was time to start the Dao Fa assessment. At this time, the Ziqing Daoist withdrew and left, and another old man, that is, Zixiao Daoren, the junior disciple of the Ziqing Daoist, presided over the assessment. Under the command of the Zixiao Daoist, those Sword Worshippers raised ten large iron bows more than one person high in pairs. These ten big iron bows were tense one by one, standing in front of the ranks of Dao heroes.

Zixiao Daoist said: "All Daoists only need to pull the bowstring to know the profundity of the Fa. The more sophisticated the Dao Fa, the higher the military rank will be assigned, and the higher the military rank, the more money and future military merits will be obtained. Therefore, please don't hide your strength. ”

"Pull the bowstring?" Jiang Chen was stunned for a moment, and whispered: "Isn't this a comparison of strength, how can it be higher than the Dao Law?"

A Taoist next to him said with a smile: "Little brother don't know, these big iron bows are not ordinary bows and arrows, but famous Taoist weapons, called Xuantie bows." You can't pull the Xuantie bow by brute force, you have to use Dao Qi. Moreover, the Xuantie Bow does not have arrows, but after injecting Dao Qi, a spiritual arrow condensed by Dao Qi will be formed on the bowstring, which is much more powerful than ordinary iron arrows! The deeper the mana, the longer and bigger the condensed spirit arrow, and the stronger the power. ”

"I see!" Jiang Chen nodded. Their cultivators are cultivating Dao Qi, and judging the Dao Fa by the depth of Dao Qi is also somewhat reasonable.

The scattered cultivators lined up in a queue and stepped forward to pull the bowstring in batches. Next to each iron bow, there are two sword-worshipping Taoist warriors, one supervising the assessment, and the other recording the names and assessment results of these scattered cultivators.

Jiang Chen found that the depth of these Jianghu scattered cultivation methods was also uneven, and most people could only pull the bowstring slightly, stimulating a spiritual arrow more than a foot long. There are also a few casual cultivators who can inspire spiritual arrows of more than three feet, and even those who are more than five feet. When the arrow reaches more than three feet, it becomes very brilliant and can be seen from a distance. On the contrary, the light of the one-foot-long spirit arrow was dim, and if there was one, the power must be ordinary.

Jun Zhu is a pharmacist with the army, so there is no need to participate in this assessment, she and several other doctors and pharmacists have already registered with the Sword Worship Daoist, and at this time, they are watching Jiang Chen and their Dao assessment with great interest.

After queuing for more than an hour, it was finally Jiang Chen, Jiang Wu and the others in turn.

Jiang Chen was a little weak-hearted, so he let Jiang Wu go first.

Jiang Wu tried to induce Dao Qi and poured it into the Xuantie Bow, and the hard bowstring was gradually bent by him, and soon condensed into a spiritual arrow.

"The spirit arrow is three feet and five inches long, it should be the cultivation of the fifth layer of the Basic Dao Method!" said the young Dao cultivator of the Sword Worship Temple on the side, and after he asked Jiang Wu's name, he checked the list.

The cultivation of the fifth layer was not too high even among these rivers and lakes, but if this young man knew that Jiang Wu had cultivated to the fifth layer in more than a month on the road, he was afraid that his jaw would drop in surprise.

After the young Dao cultivator found Jiang Wu's list, he was slightly stunned: "The recommender said that your Dao method is ordinary, but your kendo attainments are extraordinary, but there is such a thing?"

"Of course!" Jiang Chen hurriedly said, "My brother's swordsmanship is superb......

The young man frowned, he glanced at Jiang Wu's waist, and then waved his hand and interrupted Jiang Chen: "Okay, since there is an additional recommendation, I will make an exception to promote the first-order rank." Jiang Wu, junior lieutenant. Next!"

Jiang Chen was quite happy to see that his younger brother had won a military rank, and immediately stepped forward to test the bow.

It's a pity that his Dao Qi can only circulate one arm, and after injecting it into the Xuantie Bow, the bowstring doesn't move at all.

"Hurry up and inject Dao Qi!" said the young Dao man impatiently, thinking that Jiang Chen had not performed the exercises for a long time.

Jiang Chen also worked very hard, trying his best to urge the only trace of Dao Qi in his body, his face turned red, and finally, a faint Dao Qi appeared on the bowstring, and faintly there was a spiritual light.

Thanks to the young Daoxia's good eyesight, he took a closer look and was stunned: "An inch-long spiritual arrow?!, haven't you even completed the cultivation of the first layer of exercises?"

When the nearby Daoists saw this scene, they all burst into laughter. A chubby middle-aged Taoist behind Jiang Chen patted Jiang Chen's shoulder and said with a lewd smile: "Little brother, we men are just like this spirit arrow, what we are most afraid of is 'too short'!
