"Li Si, you have quick legs and feet. Follow Lao Huang and the others and join the scout team."
We traveled north for half a month,
night falls,
Li Changan, who was sitting around a campfire with other soldiers, waiting for the hare to be roasted, was kicked over by Shi Changan.
"Hurry up, there are still pheasants at Lao Huang's place."
Li Changan had a gray face and a disheveled hair, which was simply tied into a bun and tied with a hair tie.
Hearing the long voice, he got up happily.
Suddenly he put his hand into the fire, grabbed a rabbit leg, and ran away, raising a cloud of dust, and ran towards Lao Huang.
"The legs and feet are really nimble." Shi Chang looked at Li Changan's back, shook his head and smiled, "If you can run well, you can live longer."
"Boss, has Li Si been promoted?" A soldier in rags next to him asked, leaning against the mound.
"Promote? Lift your balls." Shi Chang kicked him out, "Hurry up and eat."
"We are a reserve army. Do you know if we don't have a serial number?"
"No number?" The soldier frowned, his sallow face said, "Damn it, we died in the middle of the road, and we don't even have a name?"
"What nonsense are you talking about? Go and eat your food." Shichang cursed and shouted to the people around him, "After you finish eating, take turns keeping watch."
"Commander, isn't there a scout team? Why should we keep watch at night? Nothing happened in the past few days?" Another soldier stuck his head out and asked.
Shi Chang looked impatient, "Practice in advance. We still have to travel for several months. In the second half, the road will not be smooth. Don't let people rub your neck in the middle of the night."
"The scout team plus Li Si, there are only six people in total. Do you really think you can see everything?"
"There's so much nonsense."
…
Li Changan ran while chewing the rabbit leg and came to another mound, where there were five people surrounding the fire.
The flames licked the two roast chickens, making an alluring sound of "sizzling".
"Little Plum is here?" A middle-aged man who looked to be the oldest and weathered, waved to Li Si, "Hey, are you still eating?"
Li Changan's head was covered with black lines, and he quickly took another bite of the rabbit leg, "Old Huang, can you please stop calling me like those losers in the palace?"
Lao Huang laughed and said, "That's true, mainly because they don't look alike."
"I heard that those sluts in the palace are all white and rosy, just like the most beautiful girls in the brothel. You can't tell the difference between male and female."
"Your face is as rough as iron sand. Even if you want to enter the palace, you won't be able to do it."
The four people nearby listened and laughed loudly.
"Come on, come on, this roasted pheasant will be ready soon." A black-faced man raised his head, "Old Huang told you to come here a long time ago."
"It took four or five days before the centurion agreed."
"I don't know why I'm wasting my time. If I join our scout team, no one will die when I enter the battlefield? It's like doing something extraordinary."
The black charcoal face blew hard on the fire to make the flames brighter.
Li Changan squeezed next to the black face and said, "Okay, Wang Erma, if the centurion hears what you said, I will kick your ass to pieces."
Lao Huang slapped Wang Erma on the head, "You bitch, don't spit all your spit on the pheasant, I still want to eat it."
The other three members of the scout team also slapped each other and pushed Wang Ermazi out, "You eat last."
At this time, not far away, the centurion's energetic voice rang out, "Hurry up and put out the fire in a quarter of an hour."
A series of lamentations and urgent urgings suddenly came and went.
Lao Huang pulled off a chicken leg and stuffed it into Li Changan's hand, "We will leave the Ding'an border soon."
"The days ahead will be difficult."
Wang Erma came over, not afraid of being burned, and grabbed a piece of chicken breast, slurping it up and gnawing it.
"This is where we are. The closer we get to the north, the more dangerous it becomes. I heard that in the second half of the journey, there will be monsters."
Yang Erbang, who had scars on his face, almost stared out of his eyes, "What the hell? There are also monsters?"
"Didn't you say there are only bandits?"
"The further north you go, the more chaos there is. Do you think there are only bandits?" Wang Erma glanced at Yang Erbang.
Lao Huang slapped her down again, "You are the only one who talks too much."
Wang Erma instantly became frightened and buried her head in chewing the meat.
A quarter of an hour later,
Several fires were extinguished one after another.
At this time, the air is crisp and clear in autumn, and the stars in the sky are particularly bright, which makes people feel itchy in their hearts.
"Those bastards in the imperial court really don't know what they're going to do for food. With so much luck in the north, how come they're all in vain?" Yang Erbang leaned on the mound and scolded his mother,
"Not even two months after I got married to my wife, I was recruited to Beiliang. Even the baby is gone."
"If you really can see the baby in two months, then something will really happen." Wang Er added in a coquettish tone.
"Get the fuck out of here." Yang Erbang kicked him, "You old bachelor knows nothing. You probably haven't even tasted what it's like to be a woman."
Wang Erma grinned, "Hey, before I left, I spent three taels of silver on a special trip to the brothel."
"The women in the brothels are so juicy and delicious, aren't they better than your mother-in-law?"
"Now that I think about it, it feels like a dream. I heard that I am going north to join the war. That girl is so enthusiastic about serving me."
As soon as Wang Erma finished speaking, the remaining two scouts immediately surrounded him.
They are two brothers from the Xu family. They came out of their mother's womb on the same day, just one stick of incense away.
Da Xu pulled Wang Erma's arm, "Brother Erma, are the girls in the brothel really that good?"
Wang Erma raised her chin proudly and smacked her lips in response, "Isn't that right? You have a small waist and it trembles when you touch it."
"The taste is like ascending to heaven."
Xiao Xu's eyes were also shining, "Brother Erma is still so awesome."
Lao Huang couldn't stand listening anymore and kicked Wang Erma aside, who was just thinking about it, "Where did you get so much money?"
"Three taels of silver is enough for you to live alone for half a year, right?"
Wang Erma wasn't upset either. He patted the ashes on his face and said with a smile, "I'm just one person. My parents died early and I don't have a mother-in-law."
"If you go to Beiliang, can you come back alive?"
"I sold my ancestral home and wanted to taste a woman before I died. What happened?"
"I'm not you. I still have two daughters at home, and I have money left to support the family."
Lao Huang took out a dry tobacco stick from his arms, grabbed some broken grass from the fire where sparks were still rising, stuffed it into the pot, and started smoking.
"Xiao Li, what's going on with your family?"
Li Changan leaned next to Yang Erbang and said with a smile, "There are still people in my family waiting for me to return."
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, I didn't expect our little plum and my mother-in-law to be on the hot bed." Wang Erma couldn't help but screamed.
Li Changan laughed and cursed, "Go, go, go, a dog can't spit out ivory."
"That's what you have to live for."
The sparks in the old yellow smoke pot flicker and blink faster than the stars in the sky.
Brothers Da Xu and Xiao Xu went to watch the night, and the remaining four people just looked at the starry sky above their heads, talking here and there.
"Old Huang, what do you think we can do if we go there?" Yang Erbang asked.
"I don't know." Lao Huang shook his head, "We are a reserve army. We can't be incorporated into the formal army until we reach Beiliang."
"We have to wait for the military order to do exactly what we want to do... Maybe we can enter the battlefield three thousand miles away from Fengchuan."
Wang Erma shrank her neck and raised her feet on her knees, "I don't want to go."
"Staying in Beiliang City, at least there is still more than half a year of training time for the entire army. Even if we go to the battlefield, we may not encounter a large-scale attack by the demon clan."
"If we really go to the battlefield of Fengchuan Three Thousand Miles, we will directly risk our lives to fight against the monsters."
"We, the ninth- and eighth-grade warriors, won't we just be giving away a head to others if we go?"
Wang Erma's words are rough but not rough.
No one wants to die.
Even a person who is alone and has no worries would not think about dying.
Li Changan hugged the Hengyue Sword in his arms a little tighter, and began to close his eyes and comprehend the "Hundred Swordsman Picture" in the mutton-fat jade book.
He infiltrated this reserve army and followed him to Beiliang. Although he was always on the road, he could feel that the speed of his cultivation had not fallen behind much.
During the march, he saw more and more things. Things he had never seen before became insights into his practice.
The inner breath of the Dragon Elephant in Qi Hai Dantian is getting thicker and thicker, and there are faint signs of breaking through the shackles of the acupoints.
The ninth level of martial arts is called Cuixue, which means tempering Qi and blood. This state is better than ordinary people, but it is also limited.
The name of the eighth level is Banjing, also known as Neijing, which is taken from the Taoist theory of refining and transforming qi. That is to say, cultivating true qi in the sea of qi and dantian is a critical period for laying a solid foundation.
An eighth-level martial artist can penetrate a wall with a full blow and leap several feet high.
When it reaches the seventh level, it is named Kaiyuan.
Using the martial arts true energy in Qi Hai Dantian to open up acupoints all over the body is Kaiyuan.
The strength of a martial artist at this level will increase rapidly. If one more acupoint is opened, the strength will be even stronger.
It is not difficult to destroy a house directly with one punch, and it is not difficult to jump nearly ten feet.
Li Changan has now reached the peak of the eighth level and is about to open up acupoints.
However, in the end, there was still a slight chance.
If you really enter the seventh-grade Kaiyuan realm, there is still a long way to go, and you should be able to take a step forward in your strength.
By the time we enter the Fengchuan Three Thousand Miles battlefield, we may have some ability to protect ourselves.
Just then,
A rapid whistle pierced the night sky.
Li Changan suddenly opened his eyes and looked at the place where the sound came from.
