Chapter 7: Undercurrents

After the tempering of leaving early and returning late, in just a few months, the two of them had an essential transformation, their height soared, their solid muscles covered their bodies, and their eyes were polished to glow. Even the more elegant Yu Xie should not be underestimated.

At first, they couldn't meet the requirements of the army, and the little guys were not convinced, so they secretly practiced for themselves and competed with each other, no one could have imagined that the two would eventually be able to overtake and no longer be at the bottom of the army.

As for the national teacher's side, for some reason, the national teacher, who has always been indifferent to everything, took the initiative to take on the responsibility of teaching the two. Although for someone, the national teacher class is the best place to catch up on sleep. As long as Yu Ding touches the book, he can immediately enter the state, not as tireless as you imagine, but with Zhou Gong, you come and go, never miss the appointment.

The national teacher also loses his temper, and sees the move. The desktop was coated with ink, Yu Ding entered the dark room, sat down, flipped the book, fell asleep, his face was tightly pressed against the table, and the national teacher intimately covered Yu Ding with a blanket.

After class, Yu Ding, as usual, squinted his eyes, confirmed the safety of his surroundings, moved his numb cheeks, said goodbye to the national teacher, and rushed out of the dark room. On the way back to his room, the guards were snickering, confused.

Until Yu Ding saw himself in the mirror, with a little turtle printed on his cheek, Yu Ding was so angry at that time, he didn't have to think that it was the handiwork of the national teacher, and he was embarrassed in front of so many people.

It is precisely because it is the national teacher who rectifies himself, Yu Ding has no choice but to give up, in the face of this old fox, Yu Ding does not say resist, even self-protection is a problem. I had to go to the pool to clean, but there was a note by the pool: because you sleep motionless, like a little king, I can make my masterpiece perfect. Thank you for your cooperation, and I would like to express my heartfelt thanks here.

The main hall of the Royal Palace

"Ladies and gentlemen, please come up today, and I won't hide it from you, it's time for Xie Er and Ding'er to take that step, you have any objections." The emperor sat on the dragon chair, soliciting opinions from his ministers, but from his lips, it was more like an order.

When the ministers below heard this, there was a commotion, but after a moment of calm, a group of old foxes began to think about Xiao Jiujiu in their hearts.

The first emperor had an order, and the secret art of slaying dragons was not passed on to outsiders, even if it was a royal family, only one person in a generation could learn it. History has proved several times that no matter how ferocious the dragon is, the emperor of each generation can always stand up and turn the tide, and the secret art of slaying dragons is praised as a myth.

Those who have learned the secret art of slaying dragons will become emperors, and it is a certainty.

So, the whole city knew the news, and people began to gossip, and the brothers fought each other, and in the end it was the transcendent Yu Xie or the eccentric Yu Ding who won the victory. No matter who they are, the talents of the two are obvious to all, and the prosperity of Fulong Kingdom is just around the corner.

On the contrary, the brothers became the last to know the news, Yu Ding didn't know what to do, thinking that one day he would draw a sword with his own brother, although he was not greedy for the throne, but if he gave up the secret technique of slaying dragons, he was still a little unwilling.

"Brother, or I..." Yu Ding thought about it again, he often made mistakes, but facing life and death still made him confused.

"Is this still the Ding'er I know, since the matter is coming, our brothers will face it together. What's the end, we are still good brothers, is there anyone in this world who loves you more than me?" Yu Xie hugged Yu Ding tightly, working harder and harder, and refused to let go.

The next day, the brothers received an order from the emperor to go to the Lonely Mountains to survive for half a year, and the victory or defeat depended on the beast cores collected by both sides. If you can obtain the head of the Beastmaster of the Mountain, you can end the trial early and directly obtain the status of heir. Three days later, the two were forced to leave.

In the kingdom, there is an undercurrent. The future of following a good master can be imagined, all kinds of intelligence, treasures are bought at high prices, and the silent smoke of gunpowder erupts among the powerful.

Late at night, the closed door was pushed open, and a black figure entered the room.

"The eldest prince really lives up to his name, and my lord sent me to send some treasures to help you. This person deliberately lowered his voice, and could only tell that it was a man.

"Let the two brothers meet each other, my lord is so attentive, if you let me know who it is, have you thought about the consequences?" Yu Xie snorted coldly.

"If you don't win after half a year, I'm afraid you won't need to see adults. "The man is obviously not a simple person, and he was not frightened by a few words. With that, the man melted into the darkness, leaving a long box on the ground.

At this moment, looking at Yu Ding, who was sleeping like a dead pig, 10,000 alpacas passed by the people at the bedside. In the end, I really had no choice but to forcibly wake him up. Looking at Yu Ding, who had a resentful face, this person felt furious in his heart, and left after a hasty confession.

For three days, the brothers were visited incessantly, but everyone's attention was focused on Mengkan and the national teacher. The two sides do not like each other, as the two most powerful forces in the country. Neither of them has taken any action until now.

Until the evening of the day before departure, Meng Kan walked out of his mansion with two jugs of wine. Under everyone's gaze, he went to Yu Jie's courtyard, "Xie'er, you also know what I mean by coming, I see the growth of the two of you, the eldest brother is like a father, if you don't have to..."

"Yu Xie understands, thanks to the general's good intentions," Yu Xie knelt on the ground and kowtowed heavily to Mengkan.

Meng Kan didn't say anything, left a pot of wine and left, and then set off for the courtyard of Yuding. Before he reached the courtyard gate, he saw Yu Ding pounce out like a dog and snatch the wine from Meng Kan's hand, "You dead old man, did you take some wine on the last day?"

Meng Kan's face turned pale: "You little bastard, you usually steal my bar." Yu Ding smiled wryly and didn't reply anything.

The two of them have been sitting in the courtyard, you take a sip, I drink a sip, and I am speechless.

Suddenly, Yu Ding broke the silence, "Hey, general, if I can succeed in coming back, you will be my master."

"It's not any stinky fish and rotten shrimp, it's qualified to be my apprentice." Monkan glanced at him and paused, "This wine is stored here, and if you can't come back, it's all mine."
