A thick, one-foot-high wall enclosing an area with tiny runes carved into the walls was a large stronghold of the Chiba Castle army at the southeastern end of the jungle.

It's called Huoluo.

The area outside Huoluo's walls was surrounded by several lakes and forests, and the monsters that were too strong to inhabit here were all ruthlessly eliminated under the encirclement and extermination of the army, leaving only a dozen ordinary species that could not pose a threat.

Ye Wen followed the team of the reconnaissance team, and after layers of iron gates and strict inspections, he finally officially entered Huoluo, even with a unit of the Red Tiger Guard leading the way, based on strict military supervision, these routine inspections were inevitable.

Even the soldiers of the Red Tiger Guard themselves were no exception, and they accepted a lot of procedures, so the members of the reconnaissance force did not have much complaint.

Captain Qin Mofei was in charge of the task report of the reconnaissance force, and although the rest of the members had military orders, they did not have to go out to fight for the time being because they were in the midst of the fire, and there was no new task assignment, so they all got the opportunity to move freely.

After saying a few polite words to Sima Cheng, the captain of the Red Tiger Guard detachment, and with a strict military salute, and seeing this detachment leave, Captain Qin Mofei led everyone to an empty square, and after telling everyone to strictly abide by military rules and not to cause trouble, he smiled and announced the temporary disbandment until a new order was issued.

"Ye boy, as the so-called teenager must be frivolous, why do you have a dead man's expression all day long?"

The thin man patted the pocket on his waist, jumped suddenly, clamped Ye Wen's neck tightly with both hands, and said with a relaxed smile on his face: "You must have never been to Huoluo, but I have been here three or four times, and the opportunity is rare, so let me take you to see and see, haha!

I just felt almost out of breath, Ye Wen raised his hand to surrender helplessly, let this familiar comrade-in-arms drag him over, and said with a wry smile: "Brother Yan, if you don't let go, I may have to die, where can I accompany you to have fun?"

"Haha! Progress! Progress—"

After Yan Zhongzhi let go of his hand, he scratched his head, and then slapped Ye Wen's back with a smile: "I actually know how to be humorous, I have always felt that you kid is wooden on the outside and angry in your heart, and that's true!"

Ye Wen, who was almost shot out of his heart and lungs, twitched a few times in the corners of his eyes, looked at a few comrades-in-arms around him who could not be saved, and silently shed two lines of tears in his heart, thinking that if he shot like this a few more times, he was afraid that he would be photographed for a dark illness after fighting so many times without being injured.

Along the way, there were four or five comrades from the troops, all gearing up, obviously preparing for a carnival, but it was no wonder that after marching in the dangerous jungle for many days, the tense nerves were waiting for a chance to relax.

And the reconnaissance troops came from afar, and had just successfully completed the task, so they naturally couldn't wait to have some fun, preferably in the company of beautiful women, and drank some good wine, all kinds of plans that sounded quite wonderful were quickly conceived in everyone's minds.

Scratching his head, Ye Wen sighed lightly, although his own interest was not high, he actually preferred to be quiet by himself, and seize the opportunity to enter the mental space to receive exercise, but since it was an invitation from teammates who had lived and died together, this bit of face had to be given.

"Brother Yan, if you are shaking me and taking me to those boring places, I will not let you go. ”

Ye Wen put his mind down for the time being, quickly adjusted his mentality suitable for fun, raised his eyebrows slightly, and joked towards Yan Zhongzhi.

Hearing this, Yan Zhongzhi's eyes widened, and he replied: "It's really a stinky boy who doesn't know the height of the sky, looking at your tender appearance, you probably haven't seen anything in the world, I want to convince you completely this time! Come, brothers, all follow me!"

As he spoke, he put his hands behind his back and swaggered towards the end of a street in the Huoluo stronghold.

Shaking his head with a wry smile, Ye Wen glanced at the others, looked at each other, and after shrugging his shoulders helplessly, he followed Yan Zhongzhi's figure.

Located deep in the jungle, the Horo stronghold is far from the city, but the architectural layout here is similar to that of Chiba Castle, and the bustling streets are lined with all kinds of shops.

With the guidance of Yan Zhongzhi, who was full of interest, a group of people gradually came to a densely populated street, and a large number of soldiers wearing military uniforms came and went at the corner of the street.

"This is the rumored Huoluo? How can it seem that it has not been affected by the war? Under such a fierce struggle between various forces, even if it does not become a ruin, it should not be so prosperous, right?"

There was an endless stream of soldiers relaxing and enjoying themselves on the road, and the rich and prosperous scene dazzled Ye Wen, as if he was on the bustling streets of Chiba City, and he was quite stunned for a while, and he couldn't help but have a trace of doubt in his mind, a little unreal.

As if seeing through Ye Wen's thoughts, Yan Zhongzhi, who was leading in front, grinned, turned his head and hooked Ye Wen's shoulder, and said: "Ye boy, looking at your hillbilly appearance, it is obvious that you don't know much, Huo Luo is a place where one-third of the military strength under General Huo's command is concentrated, this place is like an iron wall, unless the enemy army does its best to invade on a large scale, otherwise even the area ten zhang away from the wall may not be able to sneak in smoothly!"

"I see. ”

Holding back the suffocation feeling in his neck, Ye Wen first thought of the fire general who had admired the name for a long time, his pupils shrank slightly, and a battle intent that came from nowhere was faintly flowing in his heart, but it was quickly hidden.

The difference between the strength and status of the two of them is too big now, this impulse to challenge is just a fantasy, if this enthusiastic man around him knows, maybe he will put aside the friendship of birth and death together, and laugh directly, and treat him as a madman with tears in his eyes.

In one of the most prosperous streets of the 37 districts of Huoluo, a tavern with a palatial storefront and a bustling door, even in the most competitive area, clearly stands out from the crowd.

Dozens of bright-angled lanterns that shone like the sun and were printed with various monster patterns hung in the corners of the storefront, from the ground floor to the top of the four-story building, so that every soldier who walked by couldn't help but look up.

Under Yan Zhongzhi's strong recommendation, Ye Wen and a group of people walked into this tavern with a little curiosity, and as soon as they stepped into the threshold, they were greeted by a young man who looked like a shopkeeper, and immediately led them to a window position on the second floor.

"Ye boy, in the past on the march, you are not a strange person who does not know how to enjoy and is withdrawn, I didn't expect that your taste for eating is not low? If you continue to call it like this, you won't worry that you will become a beggar......? You don't want to take the opportunity to take revenge on me, right?"

Swallowing his saliva vigorously, Yan Zhongzhi watched with a bitter face as his companion kept ordering food, and it was that kind of special and precious delicacies, especially Ye Wen, a young man, who unceremoniously ordered five or six famous dishes in a row, according to the default rules in the army, the person who led the way had to pay the lion's share of the food.

Ye Wen's eyes lit up slightly, his fingers slid up and down the menu made of demon animal skins, obviously not satisfied with just four or five delicacies, he couldn't help but raise his head when he heard this, and suddenly saw Yan Zhongzhi's bitter face, he was stunned, and suddenly smiled dumbly: "Don't worry! I will treat you to this meal, it can be regarded as a reward for your care during the march." ”
