"Young hero, I have a piece of clothing here that I brought to Xiao Ming's father. If you don't mind, young hero, please put it on first!"
While Xing Jue was devouring the whole roasted rabbit, the old man took out a set of coarse cloth clothes from his broken storage bracelet and placed them in front of Xing Jue.
"Hey, thank you!"
Seeing this, Xing Jue smiled. If it weren't for the old man's reminder, he almost forgot that when he first entered the pool, all his clothes had been taken off and included in the Soul-Eating Order. Now he is an out-and-out
naked man.
However, after some small talk, Xing Jue already knew that the old man and the boy named Xiao Ming were people from a village in the Starfall Dynasty. They were going to Shacheng this time to visit Xiao Ming's father, and for
For such an old man, Xing Jue is unwilling to reveal his identity.
Because if an ordinary citizen like the old man, an extremely ordinary person from the Xingyun Dynasty, knew that Xing Jue was actually the commander-in-chief of the Tianji Battalion, he would be really frightened, and he would not have the courage to talk to Xing Jue.
Xing Jue also planned to ride with them to Shacheng. I heard that there were many people in the car. If they knew Xing Jue’s identity, they would not even dare to talk to Xing Jue along the way.
It was really boring all the way.
"Old man, thank you for your clothes and roasted whole rabbit. It's almost time. Don't keep everyone waiting. Let's go back." After eating and drinking, Xing Jue put on the cloth the old man had prepared for him and patted his stomach with satisfaction.
Then he said with a smile.
He knew that Xiao Ming ran out while the people in the car were resting, and often such rest time was limited. The old man was embarrassed to urge Xing Jue because he was afraid of affecting Xing Jue's eating, but Xing Jue could see that, in fact, at this moment
The old man was almost going crazy with anxiety, which meant that the rest time might be coming soon.
"Okay, okay, Xiao Ming, lead the way for the young hero!" Sure enough, when Xing Jue was about to get up, the old man was relieved and overjoyed.
"Hey, old man, don't call me Shaoxia Shaoxia. I'm just an ordinary citizen. Just call me Xing Jue." Xing Jue chuckled.
Anyway, they had already planned to conceal their identity, so they simply acted out the whole show. Xing Jue even concealed his own strength to the level of a mid-level war saint. Sure enough, after learning about Xing Jue's ordinary identity, the old man and Na Xiaoming still harbored feelings towards Xing Jue.
I was grateful but without any burden. Along the way, I had a great time chatting with Xing Jue.
Deep in the jungle, there is a wide road paved with stone slabs. Parked on the road is a carriage as big as a dragon carriage. Although the size is the same, the quality is completely different. This is a carriage made of pure wood.
The one pulling the cart is not a dragon horse, but a mutated horse monster. This kind of horse is not much different from an ordinary horse in shape, but it is much stronger in speed and strength. Of course, if he wants to compete with the Tianji Camp
Compared with dragons and horses, there is also a big difference, and such a carriage is an extremely convenient means of transportation among the people. One such carriage can carry 20 people.
"What's the old man doing? You're so slow. I think we should leave first!"
Under the shade of the trees next to the carriage, a dozen passengers were resting. A young girl with a good face, but with a cunning air all over her body, said in an extremely impatient tone.
"I think we should wait. It's not easy for an old man to lead a child. If we leave them here, it will be dangerous if they encounter monsters!" A big man who knew the old man said with a smile.
"Wait a minute, wait a minute, it will be dark, and the general from the Tianji Camp finally arrived in Shacheng. If it delays my cousin's admission to the Tianji Camp, will you bear this responsibility?"
But as soon as the big man finished speaking, the girl started shouting loudly. Faced with the girl's scolding, the big man didn't dare to say another word but lowered his head and stopped talking. As for the people around him, they just dared to
I dare not speak when I am angry.
Most of the passengers here are from the same village and know the old man and Xiao Ming, but the girl is from the county town. The girl's name is Liu Lele, who is the county boss of the county town. She is very powerful in the local area, and although Liu Lele is only 19 years old, she is already
He is a mid-level war saint, and he can be regarded as a person with good cultivation talent, so no one dares to provoke Liu Lele.
"Wait a little longer. If you don't come back within half an hour, we will leave. I promise not to delay your entry into the city." At this moment, an old man in commoner clothes and a bamboo hat suddenly spoke,
This old man is the driver of this carriage and is from Shacheng, so he is not afraid of Liu Lele's special status. He is also the only person here who can speak like this.
"Cousin, since the groom has already spoken, let's wait for another half an hour. But I'm going to say something ugly first. If it delays my application for the Tianji camp, don't blame me for being rude!"
After the groom spoke, the man sitting next to the girl said calmly. Although his tone was calm, his eyes that swept towards everyone were full of fierceness, which made all the people tremble and tremble in their hearts.
cold.
The man's name is Ma Qiang, who is the girl's cousin. Ma Qiang is only 20 years old. He is mediocre in his life, but he is quite talented in cultivation. Therefore, he was adopted by the girl's father at home since he was a child.
When the girl grew up, she was considered a childhood sweetheart. But now, this man has also reached the level of Intermediate War Saint. However, he fought against Liu Lele, but Liu Lele couldn't even survive ten rounds in his hands. It can be said that
Ma Qiang's strength is far beyond that of ordinary people in the dynasty.
There are also rules in the dynasty. Those who have reached high-level war saints can be reused by the dynasty. If their strength is in the middle-level war saints, they can also enter the Tianji Camp if they have extraordinary potential. And his cousin learned that recently
A large number of Tianji Camp soldiers and guards came to the sand city, and a general-level figure also came, so I wanted to take this opportunity to show off myself and enter the Tianji Camp.
The groom ignored the man's threatening words. Instead, he leaned against the big tree behind him and closed his eyes to rest. For a groom who drives carts all year round, he has a very strong control over time.
, he was confident enough to send everyone to the sand city before dark.
"Oh, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, we're late."
At this moment, an old man's apologetic voice suddenly sounded not far away. Looking sideways, it was Xiao Ming, his grandfather, and of course Xing Jue who wanted to hitchhike.
"Old man, you're finally back. What's going on? Why did you bring someone with you?"
After seeing the old man appear, the girl said impatiently, her attitude seemed to be shouting at her own scary people, but when she saw Xing Jue walking leisurely and unhurriedly towards them beside the old man.
, the angry little face could not help but change.
This carriage can accommodate 20 people in addition to the driver. Counting the old man and Xiao Ming, there are exactly 20 people. If one person is added, the number will be 21 people. This makes this carriage, which has not much space, become crowded.
"Well, old man, look, this little brother is also going to Shacheng. Can you make it convenient for him to go with us?" Sure enough, when the old man approached, he walked directly to the groom and smiled.
He said that the old man often went to Shacheng to visit his son, and he always took this carriage, so he had some friendship with the groom.
"What? Add one more person? How can that work? The carriage can only seat 20 people, and adding one more person will be overloading!!!"
"Yes, yes, Uncle Wang, this won't work. This carriage is already crowded enough. Wouldn't it be even more crowded if there is another person sitting in it?"
But as soon as the old man said this, before the groom could say anything, the eldest lady shouted in extreme opposition, and this time the people in the same village as the old man also agreed. After all, everyone spent the money that should be spent.
I don’t want to suffer what I don’t deserve!
"Old man, I'll let it go. You and Xiao Ming should go first. This place is not very far from the county seat. I can get there before dark even if I walk." Seeing this, Xing Jue didn't want to embarrass the old man and said with a smile.
"No, in this wilderness, let's not talk about encountering monsters. What if you encounter bandits?" The old man objected strongly.
"Old man, how did you meet this young man?" At this moment, the groom suddenly asked, and as he spoke, he glanced at Xing Jue with his sophisticated eyes, carefully
Consider it.
To this groom, being alone is not a problem. He has done many such things. He is not greedy for money. He is mainly kind-hearted and loves to do good things. And here in the wilderness, there are not only many monsters, but also many monsters.
It is true that robbers often appear, and it is indeed very dangerous to be alone.
"Hey, old man, to be honest, Xiao Ming slipped into the depths of the forest while I was roasting rabbits and was almost eaten by a rabbit-eared bear. Thanks to this little brother for saving Xiao Ming."
"By the way, this little brother has extraordinary strength. He is a mid-level war saint, and he can easily kill rabbit-eared bears. If we let them go with us, it will be a lot more safe. Don't you tell me, recently,
Are bandits very rampant?" When the groom asked, the old man said truthfully.
"What? Since you defeated the rabbit-eared bear? That is a very ferocious monster!!!"
After hearing the old man's words, many people cast a surprised look at Xing Jue, and some even looked in disbelief, because in their eyes, the rabbit-eared bear was a very terrifying existence. Although the rabbit-eared bear
It only has the strength of an entry-level war saint, but many mid-level war saints are no match for it!
"Tch, it's just a bunny-eared bear. Even if it's an adult, it's only as strong as a junior warrior saint. If this young lady touches him, he'll be down within ten rounds. If he's touched by my cousin, as long as he's
One move will kill it!"
But compared to everyone's surprise, Liu Lele said with great disdain, and his cousin, Ma Qiang, never looked at Xing Jue from beginning to end, because for him, here
They are just rubbish of the dynasty and are not worthy of his official treatment, because he is a man who wants to become a soldier of Tianji Camp, a soldier of Tianji Camp, a being that even the county magistrate does not dare to neglect.
