Chapter 10 A soldier who doesn't want to be a general is not a good fellow

Although there were inevitably some deviations, this seemingly simple interrogation finally ended without danger, Yan Zheng deliberately concealed the situation after being swallowed, after all, all those who were swallowed by the crocodile would definitely die, so no one could confirm what he said, so there was no need to make extraneous branches.

The two Xuanjia soldiers lifted the unconscious Yan Zheng from the iron chair and escorted him back to his previous cell, and under the command of the supervising imperial history, the two soldiers untied Yan Zheng's shackles, put him on the bed, and after a while, brought another reasonable meal.

With the interrogation completed and the two Inspectors gone, Yan Zheng's testimony corroborates the briefing and shows that the low-level warriors on this mission have no idea why they were attacked, but this raises bigger questions. The smelting workshop in charge of forging the armor of the border army was located in the imperial capital, which was under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and above the Ministry of Internal Affairs was the eighth prince who was known for his wisdom, but at the same time, he was also entrusted with the important task of guarding the northern border by the emperor, so from the point of view of motives, he categorically had no reason to obstruct the exploration operation, so there must be someone else behind the scenes.

But these things have nothing to do with Yan Zheng, he just woke up and just wanted to destroy the food in front of him peacefully, the residual pain on the soul is gradually fading, but the painful memory is really unforgettable, these methods of monitoring the imperial history are really a bit terrifying, Ling Chi directly imposed on the soul is far more unbearable than the physical one, not only does it feel extremely clear, but the time is also almost infinitely extended, but this makes Yan Zheng so painful that the long torture of dying and living is only a short moment in the outside world.

Yan Zheng suspected that he bit off his tongue during the interrogation just now, otherwise why did he not have any sense of taste at all when he ate now, and now that the shackles that bound him have been lifted, it means that his suspicion has been cleared, and the answer that he has repeatedly scrutinized before has not been in vain, and the supervising imperial history has probably obtained a satisfactory answer, and he will definitely be released soon.

Yan Zheng was right, the subsequent detention did not last long, the carriage arrived at the mansion two days later, two Xuanjia soldiers got into the carriage with him, and after the coachman's shout, the carriage embarked on the return journey.

Yan Zheng's previous judgment was correct, the mansion where he was interrogated was indeed in Qingguan Town, unlike the uneasy mood when he came, Yan Zheng's mood was very good, he leaned back on the chair leisurely, looking at the scenery outside the window.

A little glimmer of light came through the thick clouds on the horizon, the golden returned to the earth, and the town of Qingguan seemed to be covered with a layer of gorgeous saris, one shop after another woke up from last night's sweet dream, the smoke of cooking rose, and the warm smell of food wafted out, if it weren't for the presence of two Xuanjia soldiers who were as cold and hard as statues, Yan Zheng would definitely hum happily.

After about two hours, the carriage stopped, and two Xuanjia soldiers got out of the car, and there was a person waiting outside, who seemed to be not low, and should be a general.

The general saluted the two Xuanjia soldiers and asked, "Is this the soldier that the two Imperial Masters took away from our guard before?" ”

One of the Xuanjia soldiers spoke, "Now that the investigation has ended, Lord Goshi has instructed us to send him, and he will be under the jurisdiction of the Eighth Guard from now on, and it is up to you to make your own arrangements, just make sure that you can find this person quickly when necessary." ”

"I understand, the capital has ordered me to be properly settled, and the two of you will convey it on your behalf, please rest assured." The general stepped forward as he spoke, and took out the two small cyan jade bottles, I don't know what was in them, the Xuanjia soldier stretched out his hand and took it without a trace, and nodded to the general tacitly.

Yan Zheng in the car saw it clearly, it seemed that no matter what world he was in, he had to be an understanding person, and there was no change in the ushering and sending, but things were changed from money to elixir.

The Xuanjia soldier pushed open the door and motioned for Yan Zheng to get out of the car, and after Yan Zheng got out of the car, the two of them immediately got into the car and closed the door, and the general and Yan Zheng stood aside respectfully, watching the carriage go away.

Yan Zheng learned the actions of the general just now and saluted him respectfully, and the general waved his hand casually in response, "No need to be polite, although we belong to different guards, we are all guarding the border for the dynasty, and besides, you heard it just now, we will be a family from now on." ”

"I haven't been in the army for a long time, and I have always felt deeply sorry that I couldn't participate in the meeting once a quarter, but I always heard the story of the Eighth Guard Station and the Seventh Guard Station jointly fighting against the Cloud Shadow Heavenly Snake in the past, and Yan Zheng is deeply honored to be able to join the Eighth Guard Station today." Yan Zheng's tone was sincere and his expression was sincere, which made people really annoyed.

The general smiled and patted Yan Zheng on the shoulder, "Come with me and take you to the place where you live." ”

Although this warrior looks mediocre, but the view is full of energy, full of qi and blood, and can be regarded as outstanding among ordinary soldiers, the general probably heard about Yan Zheng's situation, he has participated in the Netherworld exploration operation, and survived from the danger of near-hopelessness, every soldier who can come back alive from the Netherworld is a fortune, not to mention that the next fifty-eighth exploration mission will be carried out by the Eighth Guard, and they will definitely need his strength at that time, so they have all specially told him to place him in a more leisurely place.

Under the leadership of the general, the two walked towards the inside of the guardhouse, compared with the seventh guard, the overall construction of the eighth guardhouse is better, the overall area is larger, not to mention, the collective dormitory, training ground, ordnance warehouse and other buildings are also brick and stone structures, the layout is also more reasonable, obviously with the support of sufficient financial resources carefully renovated.

Although the construction and repair of the guards are the responsibility of the Gongzao, they will not limit their power to build independently, so the overall construction situation between different guards is not the same, not to mention the other two directions, but the western border where the prince sits, due to the support of the queen's relatives, the construction of each guard is meticulous, and the place where they live is comparable to the residence of the minister in the imperial capital.

In the martial arts arena, the elite border soldiers were training, each of them was placed in front of the grinding plate-sized stones, under the order of the chief, the soldiers bent down to pick up the stones, and then raised the stones above their heads, repeating the above actions, but after a while, the soldiers began to panting, and beads of sweat the size of beans flowed down their naked upper bodies.

The ashram for monks to sit and practice is set up elsewhere, Yan Zheng can only see a hazy light, probably caused by the cultivation of what kind of exercises, the previous things made Yan Zheng strongly give birth to the idea of wanting to become a monk, his biggest advantage now is immortality, even if the cultivation method is extremely obscure and difficult, with the support of infinite lifespan, there will be a successful day of cultivation after all.

However, the cultivation of the law is extremely precious, those powerful laws are all in the hands of the royal family and the big families, even if the capital in the border army, the law decisions that can be obtained will not be too profound, not to mention that Yan Zheng doesn't know how to get the cultivation law decisions in the border army, is it in exchange for military merits? Or is it rewarded after a promotion? The improvement brought to him by cultivating the Stopping Technique was getting smaller and smaller, and he desperately needed a new cultivation method.

The general took Yan Zheng to a single-story room that covered an area of a large area, Yan Zheng thought it was a factory for the production of equipment at first, but after entering, he saw those neatly arranged tables and chairs, and he realized that this was a canteen.

"Lao Lu, I sent you a newcomer!" The general shouted into the kitchen.

"Just throw it there, and I'll have someone clean it up later!" The man who promised in the kitchen did not show up, only a hearty roar came, his voice was so loud that Yan Zheng felt that his eardrum was about to be shattered.

"Mother, you old boy, I sent people, not pork, hurry up and take him away, Lao Tzu has other things to do." The general was not accustomed to him, so he rushed straight in and dragged the people from the kitchen out.

"It turned out to be a person, I thought it was a dish, but it's not bad, I'll arrange it, you're busy." was dragged out by the general, and the man in the kitchen suddenly realized, his figure was strong, holding a kitchen knife in his hand, and a terrifying scar on his face was particularly eye-catching, as if such a person should have a loud voice.

"He used to be the Seventh Guard, you are a little measured, don't go too far." The general admonished uncomfortably.

"Don't worry, I'll definitely see it as my own." Lao Lu laughed, and the terrifying scars on his face tangled with his facial movements, like a centipede.

The general turned to Yan Zheng, "You will be in charge of Chief Lu Wu in the future, help cook in the kitchen, and I'll go first." ”

Yan Zheng saluted to the general, "Thank you for your help, Yan Zheng resolutely obeyed the arrangement." ”

After sending off the general, Yan Zheng returned to the cafeteria, where Lao Lu was waiting for him, he held his arms, the kitchen knife in his hand flashed with cold light, and his scrutinizing eyes seemed to be looking at whether a piece of pork was good or bad.

Yan Zheng saluted naturally, his attitude was neither humble nor arrogant, "Yan Zheng has never worked in the kitchen before, and now he is willing to study seriously with Captain Lu Wu, and I ask you to take care of it." ”

Lao Lu didn't answer, he just stood in place and watched Yan Zheng, his body exuded a fierce murderous aura, his eyes were like a hungry tiger trying to choose someone to eat, but Yan Zheng didn't dodge, as a person who had died twice, how could he be frightened by this murderous aura, he calmly looked at Lao Lu, and the expression on his face was not shocked.

After half a ring, Lao Lu retracted his gaze, he grinned, put down the kitchen knife in his hand, and walked in front of Yan Zheng, "Although the figure is a little thinner, but I don't have the courage to say, when many boys first came, they looked at each other and were scared to pee their pants, you have a kind, actually not cowardly, originally I thought about it, if you admit it just now, Lao Tzu will immediately kick you out of the cafeteria, where do you like to go." ”

"It's still your subordinates who show mercy, if you come back for a while, I guess I'll have to pee my pants too." Yan Zheng also smiled, although this Lu Wu elder is vicious, he has a bold personality, he is not a bad person, and he is happy to work under such a person.

"Okay, no nonsense, come to the kitchen to help first, and I'll ask someone to find a quartermaster to help you bring the bedding and clothes later." Lao Lu said and picked up the kitchen knife and returned to the kitchen.

"Yes!"
