Chapter 109: Agreed to Learn
Since Mu Qianluo said that he would give them three days, he would definitely do it, so he didn't bother in the next two days, but occasionally he would find Yin Xiaoran to drink and catch up when he was free. The life of the garrison is very hard, and Mu Qianluo never makes a special thing because of his identity, he eats whatever the soldiers eat, and he will also train with everyone during the morning and evening drills, and there is no marshal at all, which makes them all feel a little surprised.
Sitting together for dinner at noon, she was not restrained after Wanxiao and Mu Qianluo became acquainted, she was very curious about many things when she first came to the barracks, and kept asking questions, seeing that Dugu Che and the two were very helpless, they could only sit opposite each other and smile lightly and drink.
"Brother Mu, does the border usually fight wars? I've heard storytellers say before that soldiers are very hard, and they often have to go to the battlefield to kill the enemy, and they don't necessarily lose their lives at any point, isn't it true?"
Mu Qianluo shook his head and chuckled, "In order to attract people like you who don't go to the front line, of course the storyteller will exaggerate. ”
"Actually, our life at the border is not so bloody. Since the division of the boundary between the two worlds of man and demons, the mortal world has to change dynasties every few hundred years, often in the flames of war, various countries are divided, and it is impossible to assemble to compete with the demon world, so our garrisons usually patrol the border and occasionally deal with some small accidents. ”
"As for the war...... After the end of the war between gods and demons more than three hundred years ago, there were few wars in the demon world, and the only one who was still holding on was the Southern Expeditionary Army. ”
Speaking of this, Mu Qianluo stopped talking, these battles are related to the secrets of the demon army, he can only briefly talk about things that everyone knows, and it is inconvenient to use them as after-dinner conversations.
Yin Xiaoran, who was leisurely drinking tea, glanced at Dugu Che and saw that he had no expression on his face, but he knew in his heart, it seemed that the half-demon plum had reported the war in Nancheng to him, and now the direction of the war over there should also be Dugu Che's instructions, but he was not good at showing up now, so he took the half-demon plum with him so that he could pass the news at any time.
Li Wanxiao nodded, took a bite of the vegetarian bun, and said while chewing: "Then you usually don't have time to play except for patrolling and training?
"Yes!" Mu Qianluo seemed to be interested, looked sideways at the little girl and said seriously, "We have a competition here, a competition is held every six months, the winner can challenge any general, if the designated general loses, the winner will take over his rank and position, that is, let the two exchange identities for half a year, until the next competition, and then the winner of the competition will continue to challenge." ”
"Huh, you mean that the generals in the barracks can be replaced by subordinates? What about you, the marshal?"
"There is only one marshal, and that is me!" Mu Qianluo pointed at himself, and the corners of his mouth raised a hint of pride, "The cultivation and mana of this marshal will not be able to catch up even if these guys cultivate for another thousand years, not to mention that I am the garrison marshal appointed by the lord, and no one dares to covet this position." ”
Mu Qianluo is still very confident in his ability, and the main reason he sets up such competition rules is to keep his subordinates motivated, otherwise they will be stationed in this kind of place where they can't even see a ghost all year round, whether it is a soldier or a general, it is easy to relax their vigilance, and even more will be willing to fall and not want to forge ahead. Holding such a competition every six months can not only give the soldiers at the bottom a chance to climb, but also make the generals in high positions dare not relax, after all, no one wants to be replaced by their subordinates, which will not only be very humiliating, but also lose their right to speak in the army.
"Oh, then when are you going to compete, can I take a look?" Li Wanxiao has not forgotten the competition between the disciples when she lived in Lingshan, it was the first time she had seen people play, and it was also at that time that she knew that Dugu was very powerful.
Speaking of this, the little girl couldn't help but sneak a glance at Dugu Che, who was honestly eating, and thought to herself that he was so powerful, if he could participate in the competition, I don't know if he could have the opportunity to challenge the generals here, if Dugu Che could be a general, he would look very powerful in an iron armor robe!
Just thinking about it makes me feel a little excited!
"There are seven days to go, but this kind of competition is our own internal competition, and your brother can't participate. Mu Qianluo saw at a glance what the little girl was thinking, the garrison had never been to outsiders for so many years, and there had never been a precedent for outsiders to compete, and he didn't want to break the convention. If the garrison wants to live in peace for a long time, it must not allow outsiders to have a chance to mix in, after all, no one can bear the consequences of breaking the rules, even if he is the commander.
Of course, Dugu Che noticed the little girl's expression, and after listening to Mu Qianluo's words, he saw that she lowered her eyelids and seemed to be a little disappointed, so he thought for a while and said: "If you want to see it, you can let Marshal Mu add a fight, since he has never been on the field, you can have a simple fight with me, so that the generals can see the strength of their own commander." ”
Dugu Che's words are reasonable and well-founded, and people can't refuse. Mu Qianluo said with interest: "How do you want to learn from Gongzi Li, spells, fists and feet or weapons?"
"Either way. He wasn't picky, just glanced at him and continued to drink his tea. In fact, for Dugu Che, no matter what kind of battle there is, it doesn't make much difference in essence, it's just a fight in different ways, it doesn't matter if you win or lose, as long as this little girl likes to watch, he won't be troublesome.
Yin Xiaoran on the side smiled and said nothing, of course he knew that Dugu Withdrawal was not just to please Wanxiao, but more importantly, his current memory was incomplete, and there were still many missing parts, and he himself was a very cautious person, when he did not remember any small details, it was impossible for Dugu to easily announce his return to the world. And fighting the generals of the garrison is likely to evoke memories of the North in his mind. It's just that Yin Xiaoran is still a little worried, you must know that he once met the unforgettable woman in white during the Northern Expedition, and now everything is due to that love disaster, I don't know if Dugu Che will remember that love when he recalls things related to the north.
If Dugu Che thinks of the old love, then how should she deal with herself when she leaves Wanxiao? She is just a little girl, and in this life, there is only Dugu Che who is not a relative but a relative.
Yin Xiaoran's worries were not unreasonable, but Dugu Che didn't take this matter to heart at all. He has experienced too much, and the burden on his body is too heavy, and the emotional matter is only a glimmer of distraction after all, and it is just the icing on the cake for him.
Mu Qianluo smiled when he heard this, "Li Gongzi is really refreshing, since this is the case, on the competition field in seven days, the two of us will have a competition at the end, regardless of winning or losing?"
Nodding slightly, Dugu Che didn't say much, and he was worried about his body with a smile, and he came back to the camp in advance to let him rest, he naturally couldn't refuse this kindness, and instead of chatting with Mu Qianluo at this time, it was better to close his eyes and recuperate and recover his memory as soon as possible.
So, Dugu Che slept again.
At least in Liwan's eyes. The little girl chatted with Mu Qianluo for a while, and suddenly found that Dugu Che was holding his head with one hand, as if he was asleep at the dinner table. There was a slight pain in his heart, and he quickly made a silent gesture to Mu Qianluo, and lightly took his coat to help him put it on.
He's really still too tired, and he just held on to helping her find it non-stop, right?
Dugu Che opened her eyes slightly, seeing the pity in her eyes, she couldn't help but stretch out her big hand and touch her head, "I'm not tired, don't worry."
"Well, I'm not worried. There's a blanket over there, you go and sleep in peace for a while, I'll stay here and not go anywhere. ”
gave her a doting smile back, and Dugu Che went to sleep by himself. He didn't feel tired, he just wanted to be quiet and sort out the thoughts in his head.
Seeing this, Mu Qianluo couldn't stay for a long time, waved his hand at the two, packed up the dishes and chopsticks and went out.
Yin Xiaoran watched from the sidelines, only feeling that his good brother was not comfortable staying at the border, otherwise he would not have grown so fast, you must know that this kid was a full young master when he was at home before, and he had to be served by someone to eat and drink, otherwise he would have to lose his temper.
After Mu Qianluo went out, she was bored and turned up her medical book, which had very little introduction to Yin and Yang Flowers, and she could already recite it backwards. But now that I have arrived at the border, there is no news, which makes Li Wanxiao very disappointed.
In the evening, Jun Wuxian and Mengzi also returned, the two of them were full of food and drink, and Mengzi also pinned a small light blue flower on her ear, the petal color from light to dark, looking very delicate and bright.
As soon as he entered the door, the stinky boy ran over in surprise, looked at Liwan Xiao and then looked at Dugu Che, who closed his eyes and recuperated, and said incredulously: "Why did you two come back so early? Isn't it fun outside? It's a little desolate here, but it's still quite interesting to talk about love, and it's foggy in the morning!"
"Stinky boy, you're talking nonsense about this girl's mouth!" Li Wanxiao pretended to be fierce and snorted, "What kind of love and love, what do you know at a young age?"
"Hey, why do you say I'm young?" Mengzi's eyes widened, and she stepped forward to sit opposite her in three steps and two steps, rolled up her sleeves and posed in a posture that was ready to be reasonable: "You girl is only sixteen or seventeen years old, I have lived for more than nine hundred years, and I will soon be a thousand years old, you say, who is older?"
Without waiting for a smile to respond, Yin Xiaoran silently interjected on the side: "Compare your age with the little girl, shameless." ”
"Hey, Yin Xiaoran, who are you talking about?" the corner of Mengzi's mouth twitched.
Yin Xiaoran didn't continue to talk nonsense with him, and directly deflected the conversation and said: "Mu Qianluo has clues about Yin Yang Flower, but we need to agree to two conditions, and the three of us have already agreed, just waiting for you to come back and make a decision together." ”
