After a full day of high-intensity training, there was already a sound of snoring in the T-shaped stone cave at this time, and Wu Zhan was holding his swollen arm and couldn't sleep.

There have been too many things happening in the past few days, he was originally just a carefree village boy in Wujiaao, his father finally went home, and his family finally lived a happy life, but in an instant, the family ended up ruined.

The voices and smiles of my father and mother are still there, but I am separated from them......

Thinking of this, Wu Zhan couldn't help but burst into tears, and reached out to hold the jade pendant hanging around his neck, the coldness of his body shocked Wu Zhan's spirit, I don't know if Zhao Zheng and his mother have gone home? If it weren't for them, maybe our family wouldn't have suffered this unjustified disaster......

"Did you sleep?" A deep female voice came, it was the voice of 119.

Wu Zhan waved his sleeves to wipe away the tears on his face, and hurriedly replied, "No...... I haven't slept yet. ”

"You turn your head around." No. 119 adjusted the position of his head and feet, and whispered head-to-head with Wu Zhan across the aisle.

"Today...... Thank you......" One-Nine-Nine whispered.

"Hey, I thought it was a trivial matter." Wu Zhan smiled and said, "By the way, I don't know your name yet." ”

"My name is Qing'er."

"Qing'er, why are you here? What exactly is this place? Wu Zhan asked curiously.

Qing'er pondered for a moment before she whispered: "This is the place where the Qin State trains the Netherworld Guards, and most of the people who are sent here are orphans without a father or mother......

Hearing the word "orphan", Wu Zhan's heart tingled unconsciously, it turned out that they had the same tragic experience as himself, thinking of this, Wu Zhan only felt that the relationship with Qing'er was one step closer.

"What is the Nether Guard?" Wu Zhan turned over and lay on the bed, holding his chin with both hands and asked.

Qing'er said in a low voice: "The Netherworld Guard is the most mysterious army in the Qin State, mainly responsible for those dangerous missions that cannot be seen. They are haunted, killed and robbed, like the ghosts of the Netherworld, but they are loyal to the Qin State. ”

Wu Zhan smashed his mouth and said curiously: "I saw that there are four battalions of A, B, C and D participating in the training today, each battalion is only thirty people, and the total number of people is only about one hundred and twenty, what is the effect of such a few people?" ”

"You have observed very carefully, there are one hundred and twenty chicks in each issue, one issue every three years, I don't know how many issues we have, but I heard that only twelve people in each issue can pass the final test and become the Nether Guard." Qing'er said in a deep voice.

"Only twelve qualified? What about the others? Wu Zhan couldn't help but ask.

Qing'er's eyes were a little gloomy, and she only heard her say quietly: "Those who fail the assessment will all be killed and become real ghosts......"

"What?" Wu Zhan was shocked when he heard this, this is too cruel.

"Those who can pass the selection to become the Netherworld Guards must be the strongest in all aspects, and if those who fail the assessment live, they will inevitably expose everything here to the world, so these people are destined to die!" Qing'er explained.

"How can it be so cruel?" Wu Zhan said angrily: "No matter how you say it, they are all living people." ”

Qing'er smiled sadly and said, "In the eyes of those in power, where are we human?" As an orphan in troubled times, it is absolutely impossible to survive in the world. We should have starved to death a long time ago, and it was they who gave us another chance to live. ”

When Wu Zhan heard this, he unconsciously clenched his fists, full of dissatisfaction and indignation towards Dongfang Yun and the Netherworld Guard.

"So, if you want to keep living, you have to make yourself stronger, stronger than everyone else." Qing'er raised her hand and held the hair in front of her forehead.

Wu Zhan snorted coldly, and said confidently: "I must become the strongest, I want to avenge my father!" ”

Qing'er didn't feel good when she heard this, her body was delicate, and it was impossible to be stronger than others, but fortunately, the man opposite had this ambition, hoping that he could become the lucky one to live.

"How do you know so much?" Wu Zhan stared at Qing'er and continued to ask.

"I'm just paying more attention to collecting information, and I collect all this information little by little, plus I analyze and figure it out, so I know a lot." Qing'er doesn't hide it.

Wu Zhanxin said: Daddy said that the first ability of a spy is to collect information and intelligence, and it seems that this Qing'er girl has the talent to be a spy.

"Then what's going on with the four battalions here?"

"Everyone will be assessed here every once in a while, and they will be ranked into the four battalions of A, B, C, and D according to their rankings, and our T-shaped camp is the worst." Qing'er was a little embarrassed.

It seems that if you want to survive here, you first have to find a way to enter the Jiazi camp......

Wu Zhan and the two of them asked and answered each other in the midst of other people's snoring, and chatted until very late.

A faint stream of moonlight slanted through the roof of the cave, and the entire underground base was unusually quiet, and the crackling of torches could be heard clearly.

Suddenly, a black shadow swept through the T-shaped hole, and the guards on duty not far away did not notice it.

The black shadow was agile and erratic, hiding himself in the darkness where the light of the fire could not shine, and in a few moments he had already reached the door of another spacious and bright stone room, which was said to be outside because it was equipped with a wooden door.

The shadow raised his hand to push open the wooden door and dodged inside.

I saw that the spacious stone room was brightly lit, and a group of people were sitting around at the moment, as if discussing something.

"Brother Dongfang, don't you feel at ease now, is it possible that Xin can still bully you?" Xin Jiaoxi teased, and several other teachers raised their heads and laughed when they heard this.

The black shadow took off the black scarf on his face, revealing his true face, who else could it be if it wasn't Dongfang Yun.

I saw Dongfang Yun put the black towel in his arms, sat straight to the stone table, first picked up the tea bowl on the table and took a sip, and then said slowly: "I naturally believe that Xin Jiaoxi and all of you will teach Xi, Wu Zhan is the only son of my Great Qin martyr Wu Laosan, I hope that you can train this child well, of course, the requirements for him must be higher than others." ”

Guo Jiaoxi smiled slightly and said: "It seems that the military marquis has very high expectations for this son, but I don't know if this son is a piece of material that can be carved." ”

"I have faith in him!" Dongfang Yun raised his head and drank the tea in the dry bowl, got up and arched his hand: "I have something to do and leave for a few months, please cultivate Wu Zhan well!" ”

Seeing his solemn face, several other teachers got up one after another and replied, "I will definitely live up to the trust!" ”

Dongfang Yun turned around and walked out, where was he going? What are the priorities? No one knows, and no one dares to ask.

In the following days, Wu Zhan received additional "care" from a group of teachings, others ran ten laps, Wu Zhan had to run twenty laps, others shot 100 arrows, Wu Zhan had to shoot 200 arrows, others had to do 100 weight-bearing push-ups, Wu Zhan had to do 200 push-ups, and others practiced hand-to-hand combat one-on-one, but Wu Zhan had to use one-on-two ...... All kinds of "extra meals" every day made Wu Zhan miserable.

But here, it is useless to complain, Wu Zhan greeted the parents and elders of the teaching over and over again in his heart, but he had to grit his teeth and insist, fortunately, his talent was good, and with the careful guidance of his father some time ago, he finally persevered.

When he was tired of extra training, everyone else was laughing at him, and when he insisted on completing the extra training and collapsed on the bunk, everyone was already silent. Whenever this happens, Qing'er will take wet wipes and medicine, and help Wu Zhan take care of his wounds and relieve fatigue in a meticulous manner.

The cold medicinal powder sprinkled on Wu Zhan's new wound, stinging unbearably, and when Qing'er's warm and soft fingers touched Wu Zhan's skin, it filled his heart with comfort and happiness......

On this day, after everyone completed the thirty laps of the sprint, Xin Jiaoxi stood at the front of the team, with an evil smile on his face, and shouted at Wu Zhan: "One hundred and twenty, out of the ranks!" ”

Wu Zhan moved when he heard the order, and walked quickly to the front of the queue and responded: "Here!" ”

Xin Jiaoxi paced in front of Wu Zhan, first looked him up and down a few times, and the kid in Xindao was getting stronger and stronger, his eyes were shining, and he was full of masculinity.

"We've tripled our training intensity now, so you have to run another 30 laps today." Xin Jiaoxi gloated.

As soon as these words came out, a group of chicks became noisy, some gloated, some ridiculed and pointed, and some sympathized with the injustice......

"Silence!" Xin Jiaoxi stopped drinking, and the noise in the team suddenly stopped.

"One hundred and twenty, what are you waiting for?" Xin Jiaoxi asked with his hands behind his back and bowed his head.

"Why?" Wu Zhan did not blindly execute this time, but met Xin Jiaoxi's gaze and asked coldly.

"Why?" Xin Jiaoxi raised his voice sharply and shouted, "There has never been a reason here? Only do what you are told! ”

"But it's not fair!" Wu Zhan said stubbornly.

"Fair? Hahaha......"

Xin Jiao Xi smiled and said, "Where is there any fairness in this world? When the princes ignored Zhou Tianzi's suffering, only I, the Qin people, were willing to escort Zhou Tianzi to move eastward, but I was sealed to the northwest wilderness to build a state, and fought with the Rongdi barbarians, is this fair? ”

"When the six countries of Shandong are all day long, talking about the way of courtesy, righteousness, honesty and shame, but I, the Qin people, are poor and struggling on the line of life and death, is this fair?"

"When my Qin people finally became strong after several generations of kings, they were besieged by the Six Kingdoms of Shandong, is this fair?"

Xin Jiaoxi grabbed Wu Zhan's collar, stared at his eyes fiercely, and said sharply: "Boy, fairness is written in the scriptures, and there will never be fairness in reality, do you remember?" ”

Wu Zhan was forced by his momentum, and he involuntarily avoided Xin Jiaoxi's hot eyes.

"One hundred and twentieth, do you understand?"

"Got it!"

"Then let's do it!"

Wu Zhan immediately heard the order and began to run around the square alone.

At night, in the stone room.

Guo Jiaoxi held the pottery cup and lightly sipped the fragrant tea, and said intentionally or unintentionally: "Are we a little too much, Wu Zhan's current training intensity has surpassed that of an old bird, and if it continues like this, I am worried that it will be too fast." ”

"You're underestimating this kid!" Xin Jiaoxi put his hand into his sleeve and hugged it to his chest, and the old god was saying: "Although his training intensity is increasing, he can always complete it, I don't know how much of his potential is still untold?" ”

"But if it goes on like this, if one day he gets a good practice, how can we explain to the Eastern Army?" Guo Jiaoxi is still a little worried.

"Haha, don't forget that it was the Eastern Army who asked us to take good care of this son!" Xin Jiaoxi reminded.
