Zhao Ergou's family did not have iron farming tools, and the Dasheng Dynasty had very strict control over iron tools, and ordinary farmers were not allowed to have iron tools, and of course, they could not afford to buy them.

Lu Ziyi found a stone hammer, this thing was still a little heavy, but he could easily lift it.

"It seems that this sturdy body is really good, and the body is much stronger than in the previous life!" Lu Ziyi thought to himself, if he can eat and drink enough in this life, he should be able to grow taller and stronger, and his charm value will also increase.

Lu Ziyi took the stone hammer and carefully ambushed in front of his door.

In the dark, Zhao Ergou's stomach was swollen after eating.

He was satisfied, "It's so fragrant, I haven't eaten meat in a long time!" ”

"I'm so stupid, I shouldn't have told Liu San about Old Man Lu's hiding of grain, and directly killed Old Man Lu, so that the food is also mine!" Zhao Ergou regretted it again at this time, talking to himself.

Suddenly, a gloomy voice sounded: "Zhao Ergou, return my life!" ”

"Who?" Zhao Ergou's hairs stood up and exclaimed.

Beside him, there was only the corpse of Lu Ziyi's previous life, bloody and terrifying!

When he was extremely hungry, Zhao Ergou didn't feel anything, but now that he was full of food and drink, he began to be afraid.

And the voice sounded again: "Zhao Ergou, is my meat delicious?" You eat me, I eat you, so everyone is fair! ”

"Old man Lu!" Zhao Ergou heard it, this was clearly Lu Ziyi's voice, although the voice was hoarse without the vicissitudes of the old man, but it was clearly that he was right!

"Ghost, ghost!" Zhao Ergou's face turned pale with fright, there were already demons and monsters in this world, at this time he believed that Lu Ziyi must have been resentful before he died, turned into a powerful ghost, and came to ask for his life!

Thinking of this, Zhao Ergou rushed out of the house in embarrassment, wanting to escape.

He was just about to step out of the door when he tripped over a hemp rope and fell to the ground!

In the dark, Zhao Ergou saw a figure appear in front of him.

"Who are you?" Zhao Ergou asked in surprise, under the moonlight, he seemed to feel that the young man in front of him was somewhat familiar.

"Lu Ziyi!" Lu Ziyi raised the stone hammer.

"Impossible!" Zhao Ergou looked frightened, but Lu Ziyi didn't talk nonsense with him at all, and the stone hammer smashed on his head and smashed him to death!

Zhao Ergou would never have thought that Lu Ziyi's revenge in his next life would come so quickly!

"It's really cheap for you, so you can be a full ghost!" Lu Ziyi threw down the stone hammer.

It won't be long before it's going to be cold, and it's likely to be discovered.

Lu Ziyi found a flint and burned his thatched house and the corpse of his previous life with Zhao Ergou.

"Where do I go from here?" Lu Ziyi hid in a hidden place, thinking about where he would go next.

His ultimate goal is naturally to pursue martial arts and see how big this world is, and whether those legendary gods, ghosts, and demons all exist.

But for now, all he needs to do is live!

Only by living can there be more possibilities, otherwise even a hundred lives will not be enough!

"If you don't want to starve to death, there are three ways!" Lu Ziyi summed up the experience of his previous life.

The first one is to sell himself to the landlords and nobles as a slave, as a young man in the prime of life, the landlords still like it very much, but Lu Ziyi directly excluded this article, being a slave is too unpromising.

The second is to join the army.

After the death of the first emperor, because of the chaos in various places, many peasant uprisings broke out in the world. So much so that the new emperor ordered that officials in various places were allowed to recruit troops and suppress bandits by themselves, so many places were recruiting soldiers, and soldiers could eat together.

In his previous life, he was old and weak, and no one would recruit him, but now he can join the army, but he has no household registration!

If you don't have a household registration, you are a homeless person of unknown origin, and even if you join the army, you can only be a low-level miscellaneous soldier.

As for the third one, it is to participate in the peasant uprising.

Now the largest peasant rebel army is called the Shenlong Army, which is said to be led by three powerful Shenlong generals, and since the uprising, it has conquered many cities and has millions of soldiers!

But if you participate in the peasant uprising, it is a great sin to punish the nine tribes!

It's okay to succeed, but it's a death if you don't succeed!

Lu Ziyi had never seen the Shenlong Army, but he had seen another peasant uprising, a rabble with stone farming tools to attack the county seat, and it was wiped out by the local army in less than three days.

It doesn't seem to have much future.

"In that case, let's go to the army first, at least have something to eat, and maybe you can learn some martial arts." Lu Ziyi thought to himself.

Lu Ziyi went to the county seat, where there was a recruiting office.

In Pingchuan County, Lu Ziyi came to the city wall of the county seat.

A group of refugees had already gathered here, and in order to prevent them from making trouble, the county order specially transferred a bunch of soldiers to stand guard near the city gate and forbade them to enter.

Lu Ziyi was also stopped when he arrived and was interrogated.

"Master Jun, I'm here to sign up for the army!" Lu Ziyi said.

The sergeant looked at him, saw that he was young and strong, and said, "Come with me!" ”

Seeing that Lu Ziyi was taken away, the refugees also hurriedly gathered around: "Master Jun, we also want to join the army!" ”

"Get out of the way, you guys are still in the army, don't die here!" The soldiers drove them away.

The able-bodied have long since been requisitioned, and there is only a bunch of old and sick people here, and what awaits them will be death of sickness or starvation, or of wild beasts, demons, and robbers.

Lu Ziyi was taken to the conscription office, and the conscription officer asked him for information: "Household registration, how old is it, and have you ever studied martial arts?" ”

Lu Ziyi replied: "Master Jun, I am a local. The family all starved to death, lost their household registration, and never learned martial arts. ”

The recruiter looked at him once, with a look of disgust in his eyes, and asked, "Then do you have any money on you?" ”

"What do you want money for?" Lu Ziyi asked.

The recruiter said impatiently: "A tael of silver can make you a captain." Ten taels of silver, let you be long. A hundred taels of silver, and you can be a centurion. ”

"I don't think you have any." The recruiter said, "Well, seeing that you are young and strong, give me fifty baht to make you a fellow, and you will be much happier than a pawn." ”

One tael of silver in the Dasheng Dynasty was worth a hundred baht.

"I don't have a baht." Lu Ziyi said.

"Another poor ghost! Bad luck! The recruiter scolded, "Then you'll be the lowliest." ”

The recruiter put his name on the roster and threw him a bamboo card, which was his "soldier's card".

"Take him to the barracks to report!" said the recruiter.

A pawn took Lu Ziyi to report, saying that it was a military camp, but it was actually a bunch of thatched houses outside the city, and it was a room for more than a dozen people, with thatched grass on the ground, and it was crowded.

Those elite soldiers can live in wooden houses, and the higher-ranking generals can live in brick houses. The generals, on the other hand, lived in their own mansions in the county town and only went out of the city for training or fighting.

Lu Ziyi didn't mind, anyway, he had lived in a thatched house all his life.

He stayed here for one night, and early the next morning, Lu Ziyi and these pawns were called to the school field for training.

The person in charge of teaching them was a centurion named Wang Tao, whose face was square, with a tiger's back and a bear's waist, and he was a master of the eight grades.

In this world, mortals practice martial arts, which are divided into nine grades to one rank according to their strength from low to high.

Most people who practice martial arts have strength in the seventh, eighth, and ninth grades, also known as the lower three grades.

As long as you have the strength of the lower three grades, in some forces, it is enough to have a good position.

If you are stronger, you can also hold the position of general.

"Listen, everybody!" Wang Tao's voice was loud and powerful, and the recruits on the school field could hear it clearly.

"Now that there is a famine outside, you can join the army and have a bowl of rice to eat, all of which are the kindness of our Pingchuan County Lingzhou Lord! Zhou Youzhou's orders, you must obey ...... absolutely"

Wang Tao first emphasized to the soldiers that if it was before, the object of allegiance would definitely be the emperor.

But now the world is in chaos, and all the states and counties are doing their own thing, and they don't pay attention to so much.

After routine brainwashing, Wang Tao began to let the recruits do some basic exercises, which were nothing more than some physical training and the use of simple weapons.

Because they were miscellaneous soldiers, Zhou You didn't give them anything good, and everyone only received a spear.

In the first few days, it was just basic physical training.

Here, the soldiers have two meals a day, one coarse grain, and one gruel, which is not known how many times better than the homeless people outside.

Lu Ziyi also felt that his body in this life was indeed much better than in his previous life, and he could feel his strength growing every day.

It's just that the food is still not enough to eat, and there is no meat, which makes it difficult for him to go further.

"Boy, go, wash your pants!" In the thatched house, Wu Chang Zhu Da and several veterans threw a pile of stinky clothes to Lu Ziyi.

Lu Ziyi was the youngest in the group, and he came the latest, so he naturally became the target of bullying by everyone.

If it was in the previous life, Lu Ziyi might be angry directly and fight to the death with them.

But counting before the crossing, he has been a human for three lifetimes, and he knows the truth that the big husband can bend and stretch, and now these villains are just arrogant for a while, and he will be able to surpass them sooner or later!

"Okay, wash it now!" Lu Ziyi went out with his clothes.

"What a!" Zhu scolded.

"This kid is so obedient, there's no excuse for wanting to find a chance to beat him!" One veteran said, "Staying here every day, idle eggs hurt!" ”

"That's better than starving outside!" Someone else said.

"It's better to fight, you can still make military merits when you fight, get a reward, and have a chance to marry a wife!"

"I heard that the Shenlong Army is already attacking Guzhou, will they hit Pingchuan County?" A veteran worried, "I've heard that the people of the Divine Dragon Army are infinitely powerful and invulnerable, what if they fight?" ”

"Don't worry, we are just a group of miscellaneous soldiers, the Shenlong Army is really fighting, and there are also elite soldiers from the state and county!"

Lu Ziyi listened to everything in his ears, if what these veterans said was true, then Pingchuan County was likely to be about to fight!

"Since we're going to fight, the centurion should teach something real, right?" Lu Ziyi thought to himself, he had not yet come into contact with the martial arts of this world.
