Chapter 149: Recruiting Husbands
It was night, and the ink was thick in Zhen'anguan.
On the high sky, the blood-clad warriors were standing silently, and the wind from the high heavens was slicing into the bones of these low-level monks.
This moat divides the Northern Wilderness into the inside and outside of the pass, and draws the line between people and demons.
The blood-clothed soldiers stood still, but silently watched the movements in the distant mountains and mountains on the city wall with resolute expressions.
They are years of husbandry, the pain has long been worn away, leaving only blood and obsession, no one pays attention to the people behind them, but they still care about the old father and mother in the gate, or the mother-in-law and son who are waiting for the return of their beloved.
"Qinghe is short, Qinghe is long, and Qinghe is so depressed that the farm is busy.
There are few ploughs and oxen on the busy farm, but there are many lines outside the pass.
That man was also in the army, with gray hair for three years and sideburns like frost for ten years.
Changying suffered from cold snow several times, and the golden watch spread day by day.
I was worried about the news of my lover, and I brought it to the soles and new jackets, and I embraced thousands of layers of hatred and hatred, and sewed all the lovesick and dense feet.
At four o'clock, the suitcase is still continuous, and the gong is afraid to ring every night.
The gong and horn approached the courtyard wall, and the hemp leather led the horse, and the man's body returned to his hometown.
Wax moon snow, wheat moon flowers, orchid moon folded willow, and sent to Lang Lang ......"
The sky in the Northern Wilderness is very heavy, and when the wind is howling, it can make people think of the mournful sorrow, and some of the soldiers who have just enlisted in the army and have melancholy will inevitably think of this poignant nursery rhyme, but most of the sergeants have been numb, except for the vigilance and are not moved.
Yan Xi was also on the city wall, surrounded by several captains.
"How's it going today?
"General Hui, today there are 3,721 people who went out of the city to hunt demons, and 3,263 people have returned. ”
Yan Xi bowed slightly, and the usual situation was almost the same, but there was nothing worth paying too much attention to.
"But ......"
One of the lieutenants hesitated.
Yan Xi's expression froze, he had been by Li Huizhi's side for a long time, and he especially hated this way of dragging mud and water to reply.
Yan Xi's expression suddenly became as sharp as an eagle falcon, as if he wanted this captain to give an explanation.
The lieutenant obviously also knows Yan Xi's temperament, but this matter can be big or small, if it is indeed his own rumors, and his vigilance is too much, he will not be punished.
Say. ”
The captain's face was straight, and when he saw that Yan Xi's face had changed, he immediately stepped forward and said solemnly-
"Yes. ”
"Maybe it's not an important thing, but since the king's turn, the elixir outside Zhen'an Pass has become more and more abundant in the past few days......
"What about demons?"
Yan washed his hands and dragged his chin, and asked with a deep heart.
"The amount of material produced by the demon has not increased. ”
When the captain said this, he was even more weak and uneasy.
Several other lieutenants also found him quite troubled.
First, according to their experience, the demon clan is not a creature with extremely low intelligence, and if they want to move, they will either be silent and silent, so that people can't see the horse's feet, or they will come with great fanfare.
The second is that the elixir is not abnormally suddenly abundant, but a relatively flat trend that fluctuates up and down, and increases overall.
"That's right, say what you want to say directly, my generation can't be like a girl. ”
Yan Xi opened his brows, and it seemed that most of his worries after hearing the abnormality had gone, but out of vigilance, he still spoke-
"In recent days, we have strengthened our vigilance, especially some little dolls in Chang'an, although they are said to be treated the same as demon hunters on the surface, but you still have to help when you should help.
I know that some of your brothers are angry and some are complaining. But without them, your children and grandchildren may have to stay here for 10,000 or 100,000 years!
With them, although there is little hope, one day, this mountain can be leveled, this pass can be demolished, so that the dolls of your ancestors' generation can be safely at home with their wives and children hot kang heads, and they no longer have to suffer from the bitter cold of this Shuofang!"
"Yes!"
The lieutenants solemnly saluted.
Yan Xi nodded with satisfaction, and returned to the city as Changhong.
The captain who spoke opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but he could only watch the red rainbow dissipate in front of him.
The lieutenants watched the figure of the lieutenant general fade away, and they also returned to the camp in twos and threes.
A captain with a big shoulder and a round waist bumped Guo Sicheng's chest slightly with his elbow.
"Didn't I say it, Lao Guo, why do you bother to talk like this? This is not an extraordinary situation in itself, but it has created the impression that you are speculative in front of Vice General Yan. ”
"Huzi, I'm ......"
Guo Sicheng is a little withdrawn and silent by nature, and the colleague in front of him is the only friend who can talk to him.
He didn't know what was wrong, but he just vaguely felt a little unsteady, the last time he felt this way, he almost died at the hands of a life star demon, and then he was worthy of the law, and after the demon was gone, he crawled out of the pile of corpses.
He has been in Zhen'an for decades, and for decades, with this intuition, he has survived countless dangers.
But this time it seems to be a little different, as if it makes people more uneasy, more ...... Fear.
"Huzi, I don't feel good. ”
The face of the captain known as Huzi has also changed, and after many years of friendship, he also knows what Guo Sicheng's "feeling" is.
"All in all, prepare early. ”
The two of them walked silently, and there was no shift for the two of them on the city wall today, so the two of them also drifted into the city, and slowly went to the permanent outpost of the Bloody Clothes Army, and passed by a young man in a gray robe.
This man was very decadent, and he smelled of alcohol, but he was wearing the robe of the master of Chang'an Juku.
It's really not half-divided into human teachers.
Guo Sicheng suddenly wrinkled suspiciously when passing by him, glanced at him lightly, and happened to meet the master's eyes.
He and Huzi immediately gave a military salute, and then walked away as usual-
The preacher in Chang'an Juku is always respectable, even though the man in front of him does not look like a master.
Chu Fengge looked at the backs of the two captains, stared at Guo Sicheng's back intently, and licked his lips silently.
He was walking slowly in Zhen'an City, looking into the alleys boredly, the curfew in Zhen'an City was very strict, except for the only monk like him, almost no one was wandering around at the moment, but ......
"I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it...... And this unexpected ......"
Chu Fengge's spirit swept around, his eyes were dyed with a layer of ink that did not look like a living person, if he could forcibly distinguish his feelings, it would probably be the deepest desire and greed.
"Although I can't move the main meal for the time being, then I was forcibly sent out, so it shouldn't be a big problem to find some snacks by myself, right?"
He muttered to himself, but didn't mean to ask anyone.
