Chapter Twenty-Three: The Last Chinese New Year
Half a month has passed since the special recruitment test, and more than 2,700 people from all over the province participated in the test, and only 135 people finally passed the test. The amazing elimination rate has created an elite in a million, Mei Liangxin is right, Zhang He, who came to participate in the test on the first day, brought him a lot of surprises, but it was definitely not the only surprise.
Those young geniuses of the martial arts family participated in the test one after another in the next few days, and those little geniuses learned about the test on the first day through some means, and they all competed with Zhang He in their hearts, an ordinary person who was not born in the martial cultivation family, why should he compete with these geniuses of them.
Of course, these Zhang He don't care, there is nothing to compare with, and there is no bonus. Regarding the rumors outside, Zhang He has never been too lazy to deal with them, let him fight with those little gentlemen of the martial arts family, and then others will watch the excitement? He's not so bored.
"Why haven't you gone out for so many days, didn't Instructor Mei let you have time to go to his place to sit." looked at Zhang He, who was sitting on the steps in a daze, and threw a piece of melon seed skin on his head.
"No~ go" Zhang He held his chin and stared outside in a daze, not knowing what he was thinking. The latter was bored with himself, so he went to play chess with Grandpa Zhang He.
The New Year is coming, every family is preparing for the New Year, and the sound of children running by outside the door is shouting, adding a lot of atmosphere. Zhang He is enjoying, enjoying this kind of New Year's flavor that will become more and more rare in later generations.
After the Chinese New Year, Zhang He and those who passed the special recruitment test will rush to the army for the second round of training, which will last for three months. Zhang He was very interested in Instructor Mei's special forces patrol team, but unfortunately he didn't hear anything, and when he left the test site, Instructor Mei told Zhang He and the others that only those who passed the second and third rounds of training could join the special forces patrol team, and the best of them could even become new special forces patrol teams independently.
"Think so much, have a good New Year, and talk about it after the New Year!" Zhang He put aside the complicated thoughts in his mind and jumped into the courtyard to perform the "Wuji Knife Technique" that his grandfather had taught him in the past few days.
The shadow of the knife is wrong, and the wind is screaming.
"Whew!"
After the whole pass, Zhang He was sweating profusely, and the depressed breath in his chest was like a white squirt rushing out. There was a burst of lightness on my body.
"Ding! The host has successfully absorbed the Infinite Sword Technique as its own martial arts! The Golden Body Fight is a success! ”
In Zhang He's heart, the knife technique taught by his grandfather is really different, not only to obtain one more skill, but also to bring the golden body duel that he has not had a clue for a long time into the first layer, this unexpected joy makes Zhang He happier than winning the lottery.
"System, open the dashboard!"

I finally stepped into the fourth level of the first order, and I was so moved that I had been with the little monk Jin Chan for so long, and finally had my own cultivation techniques and martial arts.
"Like big brother, come out!"
Zhang He shouted excitedly in the courtyard, he couldn't wait to compete with Xiangru, and now he was confident that if he tested again, he would definitely be able to carry the third round. Xiangru, who was killed by Zhang He's grandfather in the room, lost his armor and abandoned his armor, heard the movement and hurriedly disrupted the chessboard, this old man's chess power became more and more profound, and he could have been able to spin two games, but now he couldn't even make 30 moves to announce his surrender.
"Good boy, dare to cheat!"
........
Headquarters of the Inspection Division
The person in charge of the branch of the inspection department in various places was anxiously pacing outside the door, and the annual regular meeting of the national inspection department was the most nervous time for them.
"How's it going, Lord Overseer?"
The closed dark golden door opened, and Liu Li, who was dressed in a strong suit, stepped out of the headquarters gate with a pile of materials, and waited outside for the anxious heads of the branches to see Liu Li and couldn't help but flatter.
Liu Li glanced at everyone and sneered secretly, what are these people so nervous about, the capable come first, and the incompetent exit, the rules of the inspection department are like this.
"You're lucky, this year, the head secretary didn't check the division, let's go back and continue to work hard,"
The information in Liu Li's hand is the various matters of the inspection divisions in various places in a year, which are selected by the supervision agency of the headquarters and sent to the general department for inspection. There are two colors of red and black pens on each piece of information to draw circles, and red rises and black falls. The heads of the inspection divisions below are most concerned about the colors on this paper.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and a big stone in their hearts finally fell to the ground, for fear that their names would be circled by black pens.
"This year's special call has ended, and you will have to undergo a three-month intensive training after the year, and in May, the special forces patrol teams from all provinces will go to the exam. The head of the inspection division who failed the test should be prepared to ask the head of the department for guilt. Liu Li stepped on his small high heels, ignored the people below, turned around and disappeared into the darkness of the gate.
The people looked at each other, and their faces were very ugly. Although the special forces patrol teams are under the provincial branches, they do not listen to the announcements and want to command them, only the headquarters has direct command power, and the heads of each team have the same power as the supervision envoys.
As the first line of defense in the Dragon Kingdom, their exams must be extremely rigorous.
It's been a bad year.
-------------------------------------
"It's the New Year!"
On the evening of the Chinese New Year's Eve, the entire Dragon Kingdom was filled with the joy of the New Year, the tables of each family were filled with exquisite food, and the children also wore festive red clothes and stretched out their hands to ask the adults for red envelopes.
Zhang He is the junior and the only boy in the family, and in this happy family festival, Zhang He received red envelopes from many elders in the family. Xiangru was no exception, he didn't want it originally, but he was blocked back by Grandpa Zhang He's words.
"In my place, you are also a junior, keep it!"
Like holding a red envelope, the big man's eyes were red, and Zhang He was stunned for a while.
This...... It's not like crying.
Xiangru also found that he was a little out of shape, snorted sharply, and smiled at Zhang He who thought he was very handsome. Just like he was born in a family of cultivators, he received the idea of a tough guy since he was a child, and his father only had an iron whip and a scolding of hating iron and not steel, which he did not experience at all before the age of 18. After the age of 18? After the age of 18, Xiangru went out alone to mix in the mountains and forests, and was in the company of tigers and leopards, and had fun with the wilderness.
Zhang He rolled his eyes in return, just accepted a red envelope, why did he still cry.
Zhang He's aunts, uncles and uncles all rushed back today, pushing cups and changing lamps on the table, staggering, and everyone drank too much. The rise of Xiangru drinking, retreating to the back of the table and improvised a set of styles for everyone, everyone applauded, and several bold juniors even climbed onto Xiangru and begged Xiangru to teach them boxing.
"Good, good, all taught! Teach all! "Like a defeat, for fear of falling these little treasures, I carefully took them down and made a promise that when they grew up, I would teach them martial arts.
After three rounds of wine, five flavors of food, everyone at the wine table drank a little drunk, only Zhang He, Xiangru and Zhang He's grandfather remained sober. 、
Grandpa Zhang He picked up the wine glass, swept over the crowd, watched his children revolve around his own children, and watched his eldest grandson sit alone at the table, and couldn't help but feel a trace of pity in his heart.
"Little beast, you are willing to leave such an excellent son, and I don't want you to carry the coffin when Lao Tzu dies!" Grandpa Zhang He looked at Zhang He, remembering his youngest son and daughter-in-law who had disappeared for many years, only half a year after Zhang He was born, the couple disappeared into the world, Grandpa Zhang He has entrusted countless people to inquire about the news for more than ten years, not for anything else, I just want to ask what these two people think.
At night, on the wine table, Grandpa Zhang He didn't think about those troubles, and said loudly:
"Pick up the wine glass, step on the year, Lao Tzu will live another year." Seeing that his children were not very satisfied with their statement and wanted to say something, Grandpa Zhang He glared at them and did not give them a chance to speak.
"Don't say anything about longevity, live to Lao Tzu's age, and live an extra year to earn!"
"Everyone, raise your glasses and have a good New Year!"
"Happy New Year!!"
