Chapter XVII: Joining the Army

The next day, Guo Xun packed up and prepared to leave, and when he left, only the two siblings Lan Xiong and Lan Yue came to see him off.

"Brother Guo, take care all the way back, I don't know if we will have a chance to meet again today."

"Brother Lan, why bother, we will meet if we are fated."

"Brother Guo, I've always had a question, I don't know if to ask?"

"Oh! Please speak. Guo Xun was curious about what questions Lan Xiong would ask himself.

"Brother Guo doesn't look like an ordinary ordinary person! You've probably practiced too, right? ”

"That's right! To tell you the truth, I'm a body refiner, and it's too hard to refine my body and I can't fly, so I want to try to see if I can worship the Xiuzhen sect and become a real cultivator. ”

"I see, Brother Guo doesn't have to be discouraged, you are so powerful in refining qi, there must be no problem."

"Come on! I don't even have a spiritual root, so what kind of qi do I practice! Isn't this a search for sin? ”

"Hey, hey!" Lan Xiong scratched his chin a little embarrassed.

"By the way, before I go, I have one thing I want to ask you, where can I get the exercises for refining the body?"

"The practice of refining the body? Brother Guo, aren't you a body refiner? Isn't there a physical practice method? ”

"Yes......" Guo Xun lowered his head embarrassedly, indicating that he was very aggrieved.

Lan Xiong has a strange look on his face, is this okay?

"How can you practice without exercises?"

Worst! How did I forget this! Guo Xun secretly said that he was too talkative.

"I have a master, and he taught me to refine my body."

As soon as Lan Xiong heard this, he became interested, he could teach an apprentice without a spiritual root so well, this master must not be simple.

"Then your master must be very powerful! I don't know where Brother Guo came from, have I heard of it? ”

Guo Xun was a little embarrassed at this time, where did he come from!

If I had a Master, would I still take this bird test? Forget it, just make one up!

"My master is from Zixu Mountain, known as a Taoist of Wuyou, I don't know if Brother Lan has heard of it."

Lan Xiong shook his head, "Zixu Mountain, there are no Taoists!" I've never heard of it. ”

Guo Xun secretly said funny, this is both empty and empty, isn't it just nothing! It's strange if you've heard of it.

"Brother Guo, there is no one refining in the Fire Sword Sect is Qi Refining Sect, so it is in vain for you to enter, as for whether there is a Body Refining Sect in this world, I don't know, but I heard that the army is full of body refiners, I don't know if there is any exercise you want in the army."

Guo Xun's eyes lit up, "The army!" How to get to the army? ”

"There is a military camp away from Huocheng, just over the West City Gate, but I heard that the northern border is not very peaceful, and it is very likely that joining the army will go to the battlefield, Brother Guo should think twice!"

"Thank you Brother Lan for reminding me, I will think about it, then I will leave."

Guo Xun couldn't wait.

"Brother Guo, we are destined to meet again!"

"Brother Xun has a safe journey."

After Guo Xun said goodbye to Lan Xiong and Lan Yue, he was ready to go to the military camp that Lan Xiong said.

Guo Xun didn't feel that there was anything wrong with the Lan family, but felt that the Lan family treated him well.

Before leaving, the Lan family also gave him some clothes and silver, so even if people wanted to drive him away, he didn't complain.

How many people can help you if you are not related to you? Think about it too.

"If you can practice if you join the army, that's not bad! But joining the army has to go to the battlefield, and it's not safe to fight! Alas! I can't care so much, let's go check it out first! ”

Guo Xun went to the West City Gate alone, he is now alone, and there is no way to go home, so he can only take one step at a time.

It is relatively remote from the west gate of the Fire City, and the more you go this way, the fewer people there are.

Sure enough, as Lan Xiong said, the military camp was next to the West City Gate, and Guo Xun saw the military camp as soon as he arrived at the West City Gate.

The barracks are on the left side of the city gate, and a large part of the area is the barracks, so it is particularly conspicuous.

There is a huge plaque directly above the gate of the barracks, on which the four big characters of the Tang Emperor Barracks are written in gold, which is extremely majestic.

The Tang Emperor's military camp is quite far away from the city lord's mansion, and the city lord's mansion is at the east city gate, although the city lord's mansion and the Tang Emperor's military camp both belong to the state institutions of the Tang Imperial State, but these two are not subordinate relations.

The City Lord's Mansion also has its own army, but this army is only responsible for handling the affairs of Lihuo City and Lihuo County.

The Tang Emperor Military Camp was a military institution directly under the management of the state, and was responsible for the recruitment and training of personnel.

In the end, the people in the Tang Emperor's military camp will be sent to the frontline battlefield, but there are more opportunities for promotion here than in the City Lord's Mansion.

"Tang Emperor Barracks! It's magnificent. ”

Guo Xun looked at the four big characters on the door, sighed in his heart, and strode in without saying a word.

Guo Xun swaggered inside, no one stopped him, no one greeted him, and the surroundings were quiet, which made Guo Xun feel very strange.

Isn't this a barracks? Why does it look so deserted? How come there is no one who has been trained, what about people? Where have all the people gone!

A lot of question marks popped up from Guo Xun's mind.

Guo Xun wandered around the barracks for a while, but he didn't touch a single figure, he was a little impatient, so he shouted loudly:

"Anyone? I'm here to join the army, is there anyone there? ”

After a while, no one answered, Guo Xun felt very bored, what kind of military camp is this? What's going on in this country!

Just as he was about to leave, an old voice suddenly came from behind him.

"Young man, are you here to sign up for the army?"

Guo Xun was a little surprised, turned to look at the voice, and saw that it was an old man, so Guo Xun replied respectfully:

"Yes, I wonder if this old man can tell me where I can sign up!"

I saw the old man sigh and say, "Since you want to join the army, then come with me!" ”

Guo Xun followed the old man to a corner by the barracks square, and there was a square platform in the corner, and three big red characters were written in front of the square platform, "Recruitment Platform".

After the old man sat down, he took out a piece of paper and said:

"Sit down, lad! Fill out this form, and sign it after filling it out. ”

Guo Xun looked at the paper handed over by the old man and asked curiously, "Uncle, is this piece of paper any use?" ”

"This piece of paper is the registration form for joining the army, and after filling it out, you will be a soldier of the Tang Imperial Kingdom after signing and drawing."

Guo Xun thought that there would be some kind of assessment, but he didn't expect it to be so simple.

He looked at the form, and most of them were the same as he thought.

It is nothing more than obeying orders, being loyal to the country, and then training more and cultivating more.

After going to the battlefield and gaining more resources, you can be promoted to become a general, and so on.

Of course, these are not enough to attract Guo Xun, what really makes Guo Xun excited is that he will obtain cultivation exercises when he enters the army.

Seeing this, Guo Xun happily signed the form.
