The snowstorm in the Linmei Forest blew for three days in a row, but it had no intention of stopping at all. The wind hit the face with ice particles, making it impossible to open your eyes. In this kind of weather, no matter how violent the general Link is, he can't forcibly drive the soldiers out of the barracks to catch the snow spirit monkey. Especially after the accident in which the soldier froze to death in the snow three days ago.

Today is the 7th of November, and there are only eight days left for Link, and his mission is still a full sixty snow spirit monkeys.

This mission took Link a lot of effort to get it. According to the usual practice, the general who is responsible for capturing the snow spirit monkey will act as a messenger to escort the snow spirit monkey to the imperial capital. On behalf of the Blizzard Legion, the Snow Spirit Monkey was given as a New Year's gift to the current emperor, Mandala III - Valencia the Great.

And the Valencian Great, in order to show his grace to the Blizzard Legion, will also be rewarded with a gift, which will be brought back to the Blizzard Legion Leader Sumental.

Walking back and forth like this is a great achievement. As is customary, the Legion Commander will give the Emissary Officer a promotion. That is, the partial general is promoted to the general. This is already an unwritten rule in the legion, and it is also the safest and most dangerous way to be promoted to a general. You must know that if you want to upgrade to this level on the battlefield, you have to exchange your life.

For this opportunity, Link did not hesitate to exchange for the transfer of new recruits. If he messes up, he'll lose a lot. If he can't be promoted, and the veterans who have been on the battlefield under his command have been replaced by new recruits, it doesn't count, and he will still face the punishment of military law. It's all done to make gifts for the emperor, and it's light to beat you. Writing down this item on the merits is the greatest shame of life.

The snow was getting thicker and thicker, like a big mountain, and it weighed down Link's breath. There was fine food at the table, but he couldn't eat a bite.

Although Link doesn't have much ability, this position of partial general was also obtained by relying on the sister who is the third aunt of the corps commander. But he also knew that he couldn't sit still like this.

But the question is, what should be done? It's a very problematic question. With such a big snowstorm, walking out of the barracks is a matter of life and death. Although the military order is like a mountain, Link can forcibly drive the soldiers out to find the snow spirit monkey, but this is the next policy, unless it is absolutely necessary, it is not better to use it.

When he was annoying his brain, a sentence suddenly came to his mind - there must be a brave man under the heavy reward.

"Yes. Link slapped the table and stood up and shouted, "Herald." ”

"In. "Heralds are on duty twenty-four hours a day, ready to answer orders.

"I will decree that from this day onwards, anyone who catches a snow spirit monkey will be rewarded with ten gold coins. Whoever catches the group of twenty snow spirit monkeys, the husband is promoted to the team leader, and whoever catches the team of fifty snow spirit monkeys is promoted to the captain. The team that has not caught the snow spirit monkey so far must hand in at least one snow spirit monkey within three days, otherwise the whole group will be handed over to the law enforcement department according to the order of failure. Go ahead. ”

"Ordered. The herald took the order.

Before receiving the general's order, Hu Wei was drinking with the soldiers in the group in the camp. The military camp of the empire did not prohibit alcohol, because of the cold weather in the Linmei Forest, the quartermaster department also specially added spirits to it.

The moment the camp gate was pushed open, the bonfire on the ground hall was blown into flames. Zhu Daneng, who had a bad temper, was blown with soot on his face, and he was about to scold when he opened his mouth, but when he saw that it was the herald who walked in, he swallowed back the words that came to his mouth.

The heralds are all close associates of the general, and in a certain sense, they are the generals behind them. Although scolding them is not as strict as the consequences of scolding the general, as long as people with a little brain, they will not offend them lightly. Otherwise, you will definitely be the one who suffers.

After the herald left, all the team members looked at Hu Wei. See what he's going to do with it.

Hu Wei swept over the eight soldiers under his command one by one, and raised his glass to Aguda: "Thank you for the warmth you brought us. ”

"Ahh

They all knew that they didn't have to go outside to enjoy the blizzard, because Aguda had once caught a snow monkey. They are not punished.

There is nothing happier in the world than to bake a warm bonfire, drink a little wine, look through the crack in the door, and look at the soldiers who have walked out of the barracks for a task or for money and office, and have been blown to the ground by a blizzard. Gold coins are good, but they also have to be useful, right?

In fact, when he heard the word 'promotion', Hu Wei was really moved, especially when he saw Qin Ming go out with the second group of people. However, the eyes of the soldiers under his command and the bad weather outside, Hu Wei made a judgment in his heart, thinking that even if he was forced out, he would not gain anything. Instead of wasting your efforts, it's better to sell a favor.

Compared with the ice and snow outside, the comfortable days in the house are very good, and the day passes like this in the midst of eating, drinking, farting and chatting. When it was dark, Hu Wei received news that Qin Ming's group had harvested a snow spirit monkey, but their price was that a team member rolled down the snow slope and froze to death when he found it.

A human life, in exchange for a snow spirit monkey, such a price, is not too great? Although a soldier goes to the battlefield, he also dies for life, but at least it can be said to protect his family and country. What is it to die to catch a snow spirit monkey?

The next day's blizzard seemed to be even bigger than yesterday, and Hu Wei leaned on the head of the bed and watched, looking at the secret martial arts method he had obtained from Zhu Daneng.

"The way of technical attack, Shangde is not strong, and heavy defense is not heavy attack. Gadehua is the heart, coercion is contrary, defense is vitality, and attack is death. If he attacks me and defends, then my heart is idle, my spirit is restrained, and my spirit and courage are all comfortable and quiet; The anger of those who attack us rises, and the six gods leap up, but they do not give up, so that the gods are distracted, and their strength cannot be gathered, and they are clamoring for a while."

Seeing this, Hu Wei glanced out the window, just in time to see Qin Ming and his subordinates lining up again. It seems that he won't take it to heart when he dies.

"This Qin Ming is really enough to play with Zhen Ning, he doesn't need to attack and kill, and he will defeat himself in a short time. ”

Close the book and carefully ponder the general idea of the book. Zhu Daneng's book, although it is called the secret method of martial arts, is actually not like the 'Nine Yin True Scripture', which records peerless martial arts. Most of the records in the book are all kinds of basic martial arts techniques and experience in learning martial arts. This is very useful for Hu Wei, who is new to martial arts. Let's not say that there is no such thing as peerless martial arts in this world, even if there is, if you really give a copy of the 'Nine Yin True Scripture', Hu Wei may only be able to read it in the book of the day.

The weather tonight is extremely cold, the bonfire is burning in the underground hall, and the body is covered with a marching blanket, and Hu Wei is still too cold to sleep. Touching the dark, he took his kettle and poured several sips of liquor into his mouth, which made it better. Taking advantage of the strength of the wine, Hu Wei tightened the blanket on his body, and then he was able to fall asleep.

It snowed all night, and when it was dawn, it cleared. The barracks were also lively, and it was a snowstorm for seven days, which suffocated everyone enough.

Early in the morning, Hu Wei called all eight soldiers up. The sky is already eye-catching, and I have to go out to catch the snow spirit monkey today. Qin Ming has gone out in the blizzard in the past few days, and he has won a few in a row, and now the entire military camp has to talk about him. Hu Wei, who secretly screamed with him in his heart, must not allow himself to be inferior to him too much.

"Hey, I said guys, did anyone see my flask?" Hou San, who was getting ready, suddenly shouted.

"I just threw my things around, and I couldn't find what I deserved. Zhu Daneng threw a sentence on the side.

"Zhu Daneng, did you kid hide my wine jug. Hou San rummaged around, shouting.

"Hide your fart, my flask is gone. Zhu Daneng shouted angrily. ！
