Chapter 136 Military Department 【Seeking Monthly Ticket】
The events of childhood have been separated for too long, and many things have been blurred. The only thing Yang Ji can remember is that she stood beside him with a cold face on a snowy day and said nothing.
"When the master was alive, he did find a marriage for you. But at that time, you were still young. After the master's accident, my wife also sent people out to find them. But..."
The old housekeeper glanced at Yang Ji, hesitated and then said:
"But then news came that not long after the master was born, something happened to their family too!"
"What!"
Yang Ji had a look of shock on his face. Although he had a bad feeling about that cold-faced, glacier-like little girl when he was a child, he never thought that something like this would happen.
"Madam originally planned to let you get married when you grow up. This was also what the master wanted. Later, when this incident happened, it was settled. Madam was still sad about it for a long time."
The old housekeeper sighed, sighing as he spoke. She was a very cute little girl, although her personality was a little weird.
After the old housekeeper left, Yang Ji couldn't calm down for a long time.
Something happened to his father, and something happened to the family he was married to. Is this a coincidence, or is there some conspiracy...
Yang Ji had this thought running over and over in his mind.
"No matter what, I want to find out about this matter."
Yang Ji said harshly in his heart.
The hatred between parents is irreconcilable. If his father is really assassinated, no matter what the price, Yang Ji will not let him go!
…
Time passed unknowingly. Yang Ji was immersed in practicing martial arts every day, reading "Notes" and studying "Immortal Sword". In the blink of an eye, seven days passed, and it was the agreed day to go to the martial arts department.
The official offices of the imperial court were divided into "civilian offices" and "military offices". The civil office was where the civil servants worked, and the military office was naturally where the military attachés worked.
Yang Ji changed into the blue "merit uniform" early. After combing it carefully, he went to the "Martial Arts Department" refreshed. On the right side of the City Lord's Mansion, not far away. A blue-tiled hall stood with four corners.
The large nanmu pillars are as thick as an adult's arms.
On the main hall, there is a huge plaque with the words "Martial Arts Department" written in two large iron hooks and silver strokes. On the top of the main hall, there is a rusty spurge that is as thick as a sea bowl and two feet high.
Rumor has it that this euphorbia was passed down eight hundred years ago and was used to guard the palace.
When Yang Ji arrived, there were large trees on both sides of the hall, with many horses tied to the trees. Apparently many people had already entered.
Yang Ji took a look and immediately stepped in.
The light in the "Martial Arts Department" is dim. As soon as you enter the door, two rows of huge cyan warrior sculptures stand on the left and right. Each one is tall and majestic, with bulging muscles. They hold halberds and guns in their hands, standing with angry eyes. The aura of iron-blooded battles seems to be broken.
Come out of body.
The "Martial Arts Department" is the lowest military official department, and it worships the largest number of soldiers in the Han Dynasty. Almost every place in the "Martial Arts Department" will have such sculptures of "Soldiers".
Yang Ji took a look and immediately noticed the three young men in the palace, all wearing blue honorary uniforms and looking at His Highness's eight sculptures of soldiers with different postures.
"It's them."
An idea flashed in Yang Ji's mind, and he remembered these people. Among the seven places in the martial arts examination, these three people were at the bottom.
Han Bin didn't know much about their origins. Even Lu Ling couldn't find any information. There is only one explanation for people like this in Pingchuan County - those "descendants of hermits who moved to the border areas for various reasons."
”.
This kind of people have various grievances and grievances for their ancestors, and they are all related to the cities in the hinterland of the Han Dynasty. It has been too long, and it is difficult to check these people.
"Du Xing", "Sun Hai", and "Li Feng", Yang Ji vaguely remembered the names of these three people. They looked very ordinary, but they were extremely powerful.
When Yang Ji couldn't look away, the three of them also noticed Yang Ji and nodded slightly, with a look of respect in their eyes.
In this martial arts examination, Yang Ji was well-deserved "first place". In the Han Dynasty where martial arts was respected, any strong person would be respected.
"Hahaha, Yang Ji!"
Suddenly, a familiar burst of laughter came. A familiar figure walked out from behind a huge sculpture.
"Duan Gang?"
Yang Ji was startled: "Why are you here?"
Duan Gang was wearing the "green clothes" that only "Wu Tongsheng" could wear, but Yang Ji clearly remembered that this guy had already been eliminated by Tao!
"Hahaha, I am Wu Tongsheng, why can't I appear here? Don't you even read the official documents from the court?"
Duan Gang laughed and gave Yang Ji a bear hug when he came up.
"Aren't you eliminated?"
Yang Ji said with a surprised look on his face. He really had never read official documents.
"Speaking of which, it's all thanks to you. If it weren't for you, I would have been hopeless in this life."
Duan Gang patted Yang Ji's shoulder hard and smiled from ear to ear.
Yang Ji shook his head, his face full of confusion. This time he really didn't know. Duan Gang's strength was indeed good, and he even entered the finals. But how could anyone who had been eliminated win the "Wu Tong Sheng".
"Hey, I don't know. You revealed Bai Shengming's identity. According to the rules of the Han Dynasty, she is a woman. This competition has been disqualified."
Duan Gang said with a mysterious face.
"But, your strength is still not among the top eight, right?"
Yang Ji couldn't laugh or cry.
"Hahaha, you forgot, Zuo Guangdou was killed by you!"
Duan Gang smiled.
"ah!"
Yang Ji's heart was shocked and he suddenly thought about it.
In this martial arts examination, in addition to him, Li Chen, the three young people in front of him, and "Bai Yuanyuan" who was deprived of qualifications, there was another person named "Zuo Guangdou".
"Zuo Guangdou" plus "Bai Yuanyuan" means that two more "students" who were eliminated in this martial arts examination can be lucky enough to obtain the title of "Martial Arts Student".
"Zuo Guangdou colluded with the Black Wind Bandit, and was killed by you again. So this time there are two empty spots on the list. Originally, it was not my turn. However, after the court checked, they found that the few people in front of me were
Except for one who died in the chaos, the other two are Black Bandits. Do you think I am lucky?"
Duan Gangshuanglang laughed and said.
He originally thought that he had been eliminated. At his current age, he would be nineteen years old in three years. He would no longer be eligible to take the next "Martial Arts Examination".
Unexpectedly, a sudden turn of events, a drastic change, actually allowed me to fill the vacancy of "Wu Tongsheng" again! How can I not be happy about this kind of thing?
"Congratulations!"
Yang Ji understood the twists and turns and immediately smiled and congratulated.
Duan Gang has a somewhat straight-forward personality, he says whatever he wants and doesn't like to hide things, so he can be regarded as a friend with whom we can have in-depth interactions.
Moreover, when Wu Dian was bloody, Yang Ji fought together with him. In any case, knowing that he could obtain the title of Wu Tongsheng is something worth celebrating.
This year's martial arts examination actually had two substitutes, which is a strange thing.
Li Chen, Du Xing, Sun Hai, Li Feng, Duan Gang. Including himself, there are six people. Wu Tongsheng has seven places in total, and six people are still not enough.
"Duan Gang, who is the other person?"
Yang Ji's heart moved and he suddenly said.
"Humph! There is another person who is me!"
A cold, unceremonious voice came. In Yang Ji's surprised eyes, a young man with a cold expression, a thin body, and a rather aloof appearance came out from behind the statue on the left side above the hall.
"Yang Ji, you didn't expect it!"
Shi Qing stood on the last step of the hall, looking at Yang Ji coldly. There was no trace of resentment in his eyes.
He had already been eliminated from the martial arts examination, but with his victory over Duan Gang, he still surpassed Duan Gang and caught up with the last place.
Shi Qing was a descendant of the wealthy Shi family in Langya County. He was demoted to Pingchuan County. Yang Ji didn't feel very good about this arrogant deposed son. He only felt that he was arrogant and arrogant, and he always looked askance at him.
human feeling.
Yang Ji's eyelids twitched, but he didn't expect that the last vacant spot would be him.
"Hmph! You killed my steel-backed ape. You must not have thought that I would also be granted the title of martial arts student, right?"
Shi Qing said harshly, not hiding the pride and resentment in his eyes.
A bloodbath in the martial arts palace was a disaster for many people, but it was an opportunity for him. Although the "Steel-backed Ape" died, he successfully obtained the title of "Martial Boy". With this alone, he could escape
It is worth celebrating to escape the fate of being deposed and treated coldly.
"Hey, Shi Qing, you bastard. What are you talking about? If it weren't for Yang Ji, do you think you would be where you are today?"
Duan Gang said angrily.
"A big, brainless orangutan like you has no right to scream in front of me. - I am defeated!"
Shi Qing said with disdain.
"Asshole! What's the point of relying on martial pets? If you have the ability, let's show off!"
Shi Qing's words hit a sore spot, and Duan Gang became furious.
"enough."
Yang Ji stretched out his arm and stopped Duan Gang.
"Shi Qing, that's enough for the martial arts competition. Fighting to the death is another matter. A martial pet can save you once, but can it save you for the rest of your life? Do you want to learn from Zuo Guangdou?"
Yang Ji glanced at Shi Qing and said calmly.
"you!--"
Shi Qing's face changed slightly, and he felt a huge threat. His lips opened, but finally he did not dare to say anything. For such a powerful person as "Zuo Guangdou", Yang Ji killed him as soon as he said it, without any hesitation.
The martial arts leaders in previous years may have been better at sparring than actual combat, but this one in front of him was not at all. At the age of sixteen, an ordinary person might have trembled hands when killing a chicken, but this person in front of him could not even blink an eye.
And it wasn’t even the chickens that were killed!
"Da da da!"
A burst of heavy footsteps came from the back hall, mixed with the sound of armor plates clanging against each other. Everyone's hearts moved and they all turned around.
In just a moment, Captain Ding, dressed in heavy armor, strode out from the back of the palace with two young guards.
"See Lord Captain."
Everyone saluted one after another.
"Um."
Captain Ding looked at the audience and nodded, holding a long sword in his hand and sat down on the big black iron chair above the hall with a golden sword:
"Is everyone here?"
"It seems that Li Chen hasn't arrived yet."
Everyone looked around and someone said.
"Well. I met him the day before yesterday. Since we have already arrived in the city, I shouldn't be late. Just wait for him for a while."
Captain Ding waved his palms wearing iron fist gloves outwards.
PS: Sorry, why didn’t you sleep so late? Brothers, please give me 2 monthly tickets to support me.
