198: Conscription
"If you don't want to." Song Yu tried to make himself smile and not look so tense, "We can also go by ourselves." ”
Song Yu didn't have much confidence for the first time, and he didn't even dare to look at Xie Nanshi.
"Yes."
Xie Nanshi's voice is like a clear spring and a stone, which is very pleasant. Song Yu was stunned for a moment, and immediately sandwiched a piece of vegetarian meat to the other party, and he couldn't suppress his eyebrows at all: "What about returning to the ruins?" Won't you be too accommodating to me? If I say at this time, in fact, we can go directly to the ruins, will it seem that I am hypocritical? ”
"Hypocrisy is not enough." Xie Nanshi looked at the piece of vegetarian meat in the bowl unmoved, "But the army is not just for you. ”
Song Yu was a little interested at this moment, and looked at Xie Nanshi curiously, not understanding what reason could make him take the initiative to slow down his trip.
Xie Nanshi saw Song Yu's eyes shining at him, and he couldn't help but play tricks, and slowly drank the porridge and stopped talking.
Song Yu looked at Xie Nanshi in disbelief: "Little Daoist, you actually learned badly?" ”
Xie Nanshi couldn't cry or laugh for a while: "Then who did I learn from?" ”
"Naturally, it's me." Song Yu's answer was called a refreshing one.
Xie Nanshi was speechless for a while, looked at Song Yu's expectant eyes, and finally said slowly: "Even though I spent most of my time in my previous life cultivating and eliminating evil spirits and looking for clues, I have also heard of the chaos in the four cities, countless casualties, and even more casualties than those caused by strange ghosts and beasts. ”
Song Yu was stunned and looked at Xie Nanshi with some surprise.
"Strange ghosts and beasts are terrible, but people's hearts are ......" Xie Nanshi looked out the window, and the sunlight outside was just right: "My father taught me since I was a child to protect the common people as my own responsibility, I don't have the ability to end the war, but I still hope to play a small role in this battle." ”
He has been looking for his father for more than ten years, and he is not bad at this battle with the Demon King. When Xie Nanshi thought of this weirdness, his expression moved slightly, and he was even a little more vivid: "Returning to the ruins is the largest gap between the other world and this world, and the matter of the Demon Suppression Pass also proves that the information we got before may not be accurate. But if he can go to Baizhao with the army and subdue the Strange Ghost King, he must know more about Guiru than we do. ”
Xie Nanshi has not forgotten the story of the previous life. Now it seems that the one killed by Song Yu in the previous life is likely to be only the clone of the Alien Ghost King. But now it's different, because of the changes in Tianyong City, Lin Ting's news of going to the battlefield and Song Chengwei's personal expedition, this is obviously not a situation that the ghost king's clone can deal with.
Although Xie Nanshi's cultivation is high, he has now seen people outside the world, and relying on the strength of others is not something difficult for him to accept. He also understands that haste is not enough.
What's more, Xie Nanshi believes that with his own presence, the damage of the war can be smaller. Bai Zhaocheng has already begun to drive out strange beasts and ghosts, so his participation in the war is also a kind of demon eradication and defense, which is not contrary to his principles.
Kill two birds with one stone. Xie Nanshi was very firm in his decision, and he didn't feel any accommodation.
Song Yu still had a look on his face, he had only seen such a character in books. There are similar settings in other games, but none of them can compare to the shock brought to him by Xie Nanshi, a friend who is "alive" standing in front of him. Take the world first, think last. Easier said than done.
But think about Xie Nanshi's journey all the way, follow him to find strange ghosts in Qinghe Town, help Yongxi pacify the beast herd, go to Jinyan to kill the strange beasts in the water, and go to Tianyong to kill the strange beasts of the Baizhao Embassy......
There are also nine deaths and one life. Although he has been looking for the person he is looking for, he still does his best to protect the stability of this world. This is Xie Nanshi, the heir of the Sword Pavilion who takes the common people as his own responsibility.
Song Yu thought about it a few times, and only when he heard the last one did he sigh and say, "What you said makes sense!" Lin Ting has already brought a group of men and horses to the expedition, this time my cheap father is going to drive the expedition again, there will inevitably be recruits in this city, we will change our clothes and answer the call in a while. ”
Xie Nanshi didn't answer, he knew that Song Yu must have something to do.
Sure enough, Song Yu finished his breakfast, and then took out two human skin masks from the package: "Poor little Taoist wants to cover up his complexion." ”
Xie Nanshi took the human skin mask, and held it in his hand, which was cold and greasy, and he didn't feel anything special. However, seeing that Song Yu put the human skin mask on his face, not only his appearance, but also his height and clothing changed, and he couldn't help but be a little surprised when he saw it.
Song Yu was also very happy. Although I basically didn't do any serious plot in the week, I did a lot of side quests and took a bunch of weird props. So much so that he has been driven by the timeline to struggle to survive in the main line, and he can get by with the props he has saved in the first week.
Although the modeling effect of the human skin mask is fixed to gender, the content is random. Song Yu looked at the bronze mirror in the inn, and he became an ordinary boy of about eighteen or nineteen years old, and he felt quite fresh. He looked at Xie Nanshi: "What, Xiaodao Chief, reluctant?" ”
"You go first in a while, I'll go to Xiao Er and check out." Xie Nanshi explained, "Both of us have changed, who will settle the money?" ”
"Makes sense. Then I'll wait for you at the well at the back of the inn. Song Yu also began to wonder if he and Song Chengwei had a quarrel, would Du Anchen still watch secretly, and turn his head to find Song Chengwei to take off his vest? Although he has a lot of money in hand now, he has to go with the army in the future, and he can't farm monsters on a large scale, so he still has to spend it on the blade.
Song Yu didn't sit by the well for long before he saw a slightly thin young man also arrive at the well, with a parrot squatting on his shoulder.
Needless to say, this is Xie Nanshi's disguise. Seeing the temperament of a noble Taoist being leveled to the same level as himself, Song Yu's heart was actually a little refreshing. And that parrot was Yuan Fang, who had been with the two of them all the way.
After all, it is an animal, maybe it is more sensitive to breath or something, although Song Yu has changed his appearance, Yuan Fang still rushed to Song Yu, and his attitude can not be said to be disgusted or intimate.
Song Yu couldn't help but stroked two handfuls of parrot's beautiful feathers: "It's not easy to raise you so fat these days, but it's inconvenient to take you after that." You go back to find Yuanfang, and we will pick you up later." ”
Yuan Fang's small eyes were obviously no bigger than beans, but they seemed to be white, and then they spread their wings and flew away. When Song Yu remembered to pick it up, it was estimated that the world would be destroyed. If it weren't for the fact that it was really inconvenient for these two people to carry a bird in their next plan, it wouldn't have been driven away so easily.
Song Yu waved his hand and followed Xie Nanshi to the street.
As Song Yu expected, conscription began in the city. The response was even much better than Song Yu expected, there was a long queue at the location of the expedition, and looking at the people who came to enlist, they looked relaxed, and there was no trace of sadness about going to the front line.
Only then did Song Yu notice that compared to the closed doors on both sides of the street when he first returned to Tianyong yesterday, today's Tianyong City seems to have instantly regained its former prosperity. They could all hear the shouting on the other side of the long street.
Song Yu was in a trance.
"It's all because of your father." Xie Nanshi said softly.
Song Yu nodded, and when he lowered his eyes, he couldn't tell if he had just listened to a story like this, or if he was faintly moved in his heart.
The queue for the conscription was very long, and it took a long time, but no one retreated, and most of them were in high spirits. Song Yu and Nanshi came to the end, and in front of the two of them there was a little fat man in brocade clothes, who smiled amicably, and it was very easy to communicate at a glance. Song Yu patted the other party's shoulder: "Brother Tai is also here to enlist in the army?" ”
Although the little fat man wondered why someone would ask such a question when he was standing in the line, he still gave a good-natured answer: "Of course." ”
Song Yu looked at the long team curiously: "Since we are going to go on the expedition, why don't everyone seem to be afraid, but very excited?" ”
"Don't you know who the boss is this time?" The little fat man looked at Song Yu in shock, as if he didn't understand why he asked such a question: "This is our city lord's personal expedition!" What dangers can there be? And it's also possible to get in close contact with the city lord, how can you not be excited about such a rare opportunity! ”
Unexpectedly, in the game, fans could also see the scene of fans chasing stars, and Song Yu fell silent for a while.
This little fat man is obviously also a talker, and he doesn't mind seeing Song Yu's silence, and still says his own with a smile: "The two little brothers are not from the main city, right?" ”
Although Song Yu was puzzled, he still asked, "How do you know?" ”
The little fat man laughed: "We are Yong, especially in the main city, where are there people who don't worship the city lord?" If we are lucky enough to be called this time, we will definitely tell you about the great achievements of our city lord! ”
Song Yu smiled, seeing that this little fat man looked round and cute, he still said a few more words: "Brother has good eyesight, but no matter how strong he is, he is just one person, the sword has no eyes on the battlefield, any accident may happen, or ......"
The little fat man directly interrupted Song Yu's words with a wave of his hand: "I am willing to die for the city lord." ”
Song Yu silently stretched out his thumb and ended this nonsensical conversation. But I have to say, this setting is quite interesting. In the city war, Bai Zhao's side was a strange ghost bonus, but Tianyong occupied the hearts of the people.
This mediocre conscription was not called by everyone, and first of all, the elderly over 50 years old and children under the age of 16 were eliminated. Those who are in the prime of life also need to be counted and registered, and they can only be sent to the household department to confirm that they are not the only seedlings and not the only young and strong laborers in the family.
However, if you have a foundation in cultivation or something specialty, it is much easier to enter the military register. Those who have a sect will give a token of the sect, and those who don't have it will let the people in the enlistment office test their ability, as long as they are not too weak, they can be recruited into the army.
This setting made Song Yu breathe a sigh of relief - although the props could allow him to reconcile Nanshi to change his appearance, he couldn't conjure up a household registration out of thin air.
