Knock –

Knock knock!

One long and two short knocks, I don't know what special code it is, or the habit of the knocker.

Lieyang and Yue Shiyi looked at each other and felt a little strange - the house they just bought, neither of them had relatives, friends and acquaintances here, who would come to the door?

Knock - knock!

The man outside the door knocked three more times.

Lieyang thought that it was useless to think too much, so it was better to open the door and take a look, so he went to open the door with seven or eight points of caution.

——

Outside, the sun sets in the west, and the night covers the land.

The southern part of the town is a little lonely, and the lights are dim. An old general in black soft armor stood alone under the eaves, his eyes were quite complicated, until the door opened.

“......”

One old and one young, looking at each other.

It was just a glance of eye contact, and the young man who opened the door stepped out of the way, without superfluous dialogue, let the old general into the house, and then closed the door with a light movement, as if nothing had happened.

"General Cheng Yu?" Yue Shiyi was startled when he saw the comer, and hurriedly got up and saluted.

Although the old general is no longer on the front line, he has made outstanding achievements, and even people in the rivers and lakes respect his prestige.

When Lieyang saw him coming, he had already guessed eight or nine, so he asked, "General Cheng, let's have dinner together?"

Although Cheng Yu was old, his body was still strong, he glanced inside the room and nodded.

Just as Gu Xue brought the rest of the dishes, Lieyang instructed: "Fry an egg again, there is a house at the corner of the street, go and cut a pound of red oil pig ears, weigh a pound of braised duck feet." ”

"Okay son!" Gu Xue was in a hurry, and first set the dishes and chopsticks for them, and then ran out of the door with brisk steps.

"Li Gongzi's good swordsmanship-" Cheng Yu sat on the side of the pear wood long table and looked at the fire pattern sword hanging on the wall, "The sheath is like the moon, which makes the old man's heart itch!"

Lie Yang sat in the main seat, and he didn't mean to move the chopsticks first, so he naturally had to wait for Gu Xue to come back and then start the meal together.

When he saw that Cheng Yu saw through it and didn't say anything, he breathed a sigh of relief: "Practice makes perfect." ”

"The future is terrifying...... Cheng Yu's eyes were blazing, and his eyes were almost spewing fire, but the more he looked at it, the more confused he became, the position of the scorching sun's dantian was obviously no longer a spiritual eye reaction, but his cultivation was not exhausted, and the fluctuation of the spirit was only much weaker than that of the Earth Xuan Domain. It can be maintained at the level of the lower realm of enlightenment.

It seems that the rumors are true, the major general was indeed hit by Qingcang's wolf arrow and was broken dantian.

But instead of dying, the young general appeared in the town of robbery, and defeated the strong man in the upper realm of Qiling with one sword-

Cheng Yu observed Yue Shiyi a few times, and made eye contact with Lie Yang, so he could see the relationship between the two in general, so he said: "Li Gongzi's sheath reminds me of an old man - after a few observations in the square today, I feel that Li Gongzi's appearance and body are quite similar to the old man......"

"Oh?" Lieyang picked up in time, pretending to be confused.

Cheng Yu smiled and asked vaguely, "Ling Zun, but General Li of Wildfire City?"

Wildfire City is located in the Walnut Plain, it is the left-wing city of Flame City, and the "General Li" among them, if not one hundred, but also eighty, Yue Shiyi was listening, completely confused.

He could only speculate that the "General Li" must be of a high grade, otherwise it would be impossible for Lieyang to easily come up with a few hundred gold.

Lie Yang pretended to be stunned, and then pretended to be happy and said, "My father is lucky enough to know General Cheng?"

——

Speaking of origins, Cheng Yu is Liefei's old subordinate and has been stationed in Yanguan for nearly 40 years. Occasionally, I have the opportunity to revisit the old place, and I have met with the sun a few times.

At this time, the identification of "General Li" was determined as a last resort.

According to Cheng Yu's thoughts, he can't wait to make the news of Lieyang's survival public, so as to appease the hearts of the people in the world.

"You are skilled, compared to Ling Zun...... Cheng Yu could only say some words, "Why don't you continue to practice in the wilderness fire camp and come to rob the town to buy a house?"

"The juniors are also a ......last resort," Lieyang sighed bitterly, "The competition in the wildfire camp is fierce, and the juniors are not as good as others, and they are injured by their opponents. I simply came to the rivers and lakes to practice, heal my injuries, and then go back to see if I have improved my cultivation. ”

The spiritual power on Lieyang's body is disordered, Cheng Yu can see through it at a glance, he is worried about the young general's injury, but it is inconvenient to ask at this moment. At this time, Gu Xue had already returned, put two plates of red oil pig ears and duck paws, and fried an egg and served it to the table, and finally it was time to eat.

"Raiding is a good place, and if you live here temporarily, you will definitely be profitable. Cheng Yu looked at the present while drinking chicken soup, "The Soul Slaying Guild involves a wide range of interests, and the internal personnel are mixed, including ordinary people from the rivers and lakes, as well as disciples from several major sects. ”

Lieyang also saw it, and was not worried: "I plan to team up with Brother Yue and recruit one or two more newcomers, and the power struggle within the Spirit Slaying Guild has nothing to do with me." ”

"Very well. General Cheng bowed slightly, exhaled a breath of hot air from his mouth, and drank a bowl of chicken soup in the cold winter, which was indescribably refreshing.

After chatting a few words, everyone is familiar with it.

Cheng Yu was inevitably worried: "Does Ling Zun know that you are here?"

"Not necessarily. Lieyang's expression was faint, perhaps when he led the Eighteen Cavalry of Yanfeng to break through in reverse, his father had already arranged for manpower to respond in the south of the Robbery Valley.

It's just that for some reason, there is no one now.

He smiled and said, "My father is busy with military affairs, and most of them don't know. ”

As soon as Lieyang said this, Cheng Yu naturally knew what to do, at least send the news of the young general's survival to the Zhenbei General's Mansion!

After a meal, there were no twists and turns, Cheng Yuren was old and fine, even if Yue Shiyi was witty, he couldn't see any flaws.

"The ancients came to rob the town later, and the old man was supposed to be the east, but he didn't expect that he would come to the door first to eat. Cheng Yu was full of food and drink, his face was full of red light, "Tomorrow, when you take the spirit badge, the old man will congratulate you with wine!"

It's nothing more than some kind words, even if the sun is sure, he doesn't dare to underestimate the Four Elephants Xuanyi Array.

Cheng Yu didn't stay long, quickly said goodbye, and asked when he went out: "Since you plan to live in the town for a long time, it is better to put your name in the official mansion, and it will be convenient to act in the future." ”

This is a good suggestion, Lie Yang looked grateful: "The younger generation did not have a military position in the imperial court before, and the old general Meng Cheng loved it." ”

Cheng Yu saw that he had no objection, and exhaled a long white breath outside the door: "There are many fish and dragons in the robbery town, there are not a few thieves with chickens and dogs, and there is a temporary lack of a ranger general in my camp, and when there is an emergency, he will be responsible for supporting him at any time, are you willing?"

It's very important, but it's actually an idle job, the level is not low, but the salary is not high.

Lieyang saluted and thanked him: "But with the general's arrangement, the younger generation is grateful." ”

The lights are shining, and the wind and snow are very urgent.

General Cheng looked at the young man under the eaves, and there were thousands of emotions in his heart, this kid was only seventeen years old and became famous all over the world, not for nothing.

Some people have fought all their lives and have not made a few meritorious deeds.

The scorching sun is in the hot pass, in the land covered by wild sand, he has killed countless enemies in two years, and in terms of military merits, he is not even inferior to some old generals who have fought for 20 years.

He not only has the courage to charge ahead, but also has the resourcefulness to strategize, and now he has been reduced to this, serving as a "ranger general", it is really ......

General Cheng walked slowly. "Lieyang and Yue Eleven saluted each other.

Cheng Yu put away the emotion in his heart, his face was unwavering, and after nodding, he turned around and left leisurely.

——

Closing the wind and snow out of the door, Lieyang's expression was as usual, but his mood fluctuated.

He does not discriminate against lower-ranking military positions, but he must be self-deprecating for the positioning of today's "Ranger General". Less than half a month ago, the title of Lieyang has always been "General Yanguan" and "Major General".

"Childe, are you an official?" Gu Xue didn't understand what kind of position it was, and asked curiously while cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks.

Lieyang spread his hands: "Sort of—"

"Wow, is the salary high?" Gu Xue was full of little stars.

"Okay?" Lieyang is very familiar with the military camp system, and the salary of the ranger general is not high in the military camp, only 6,000 yuan per month, which is equivalent to the lowest-level partial general.

However, for ordinary people, it is quite a high income.

Gu Xue frowned and calculated, and was still a little dissatisfied: "That son has to work hard to earn money, according to the expenditure standard you set, there is still a lot of money." ”

As he spoke, he glanced at Yue Shiyi intentionally or unintentionally, and didn't say anything, so he went to the back kitchen to wash the dishes. The meaning of that couldn't be clearer - you big black man can't eat and live here for nothing, you have to pay!

Lieyang smiled dumbly, and said to the back: "Xue'er, from today onwards, you can keep an account of how much money you spend in a month, and then we will sum it up together when we recruit new people." ”

Xue'er in the back hall let out a low "oh", which didn't sound very happy. I didn't expect the little girl with a pure temperament to have a miser temperament?

It's not bad to think about it, such a girl can see the house.

Yue Shiyi didn't think too much, the problem of money was a trivial matter, and when he got the Spirit Killing Badge, he didn't have to worry about not being able to afford food. What he cared more about was the sword of the scorching sun.

When I was in Longxiao Heights, I had long heard my master say that the body was the foundation of cultivation. A strong physique, with a super strong spiritual eye.

Only when the physical fitness and spiritual eye level are improved simultaneously is the pinnacle of martial arts!

To this end, Longxiao Heights implements "pulse sealing training" - that is, temporarily sealing the body's veins, inhibiting the blessing effect of spirit seeds and spirit eyes on the body, and training completely with the strength of the body.

There is no doubt that the scorching sun in front of him must have undergone similar training.

"So, Brother Li has been training with the Flame Army before?" Yue Shiyi asked bluntly.

General Cheng Yu revealed the origin of "Li Yang", since he came from Wildfire City, he naturally belonged to the Flame Army.

Blaze knew what he wanted to ask, so he didn't sit down, stood at the staircase of the upper floor, and said funny: "The Flame Army has four levels of vein sealing training, all eighteen vein gates are sealed, and then wearing the heavy armor of the dark iron for training to march on the hot Gobi Desert, tsk, it's not too cool!"

These are not secrets, and what makes the Flame Army so powerful is directly related to its harsh training mode.

"No wonder ......" Yue Shiyi was convinced, sat quietly and frowned, looking like he had been hit, "I tried my best, but I couldn't fight Huo Guang." Brother Li was seriously injured, but he was able to win with one sword - if Brother Li was full of energy, I am afraid that he would be able to fight with my senior brother. ”

“......”

Lie Yang at the top of the stairs pursed his lips, remembering some rumors in the rivers and lakes: Qin Long, the contemporary senior brother of Longxiao Heights, is an extremely top existence in Qingjun's generation, and since the age of sixteen, he has been called "invincible at the same level".

Calculate the age, Qin Long is twenty-one years old, and the earth is invincible!
