() The entire Yongdu is divided into two main parts: the outer city and the inner city.
The outer city is where ordinary people and busy shops live, and it is very lively.
The inner city, on the other hand, was home to all levels of government offices and the residences of dignitaries. It was solemn and quiet. Compared with the outer city, entering the inner city was like entering another world.
Lei Xingkong walked along the way, asking people on the roadside, and soon followed the map and arrived in front of the Yulin Army camp in the east of the inner city.
The Yulin Army Camp occupies a huge area, almost occupying the entire east side of the inner city.
You can't see the inside from the outer wall, and you don't know what's going on inside, but Xiao Sha's momentum can be felt from a distance.
Walking to the gate, there were two sentries in front of the door. Lei Xingkong hugged one of the sentries and explained his purpose: "Brothers, I'm here to find Yu Xiandeng, the account No. 5 of Column B of Czi Camp. Please tell me."
Send a message and say that the younger brother of the Lei family is here to look for him."
The sentry raised his eyes to look at Lei Xingkong. When he saw the long scar on Lei Xingkong's face, his eyes couldn't help but pause for a moment. Then he said "Wait a moment" and went inside.
Unexpectedly, this "wait a moment" turned out to be a long time.
Lei Xingkong stood quietly on the spot, calm and unhurried, as if he was petrified, not even moving.
After a while, I saw the sentry turning back, followed by another person hurriedly following him.
"Brother Yu!"
When he saw the person behind him, Lei Xingkong's eyes suddenly lit up and he immediately said hello.
Yu Xiandeng heard the sound and looked overjoyed to see Lei Xingkong. At the same time, he also called out: "A Kong!"
The two of them looked at each other and couldn't help but smile. Then Yu Xianden came over and hugged Lei Xingkong, saying: "My father asked someone to send a letter a few days ago, saying that you are coming. I guess
It’s these two days, so I’ve been waiting for you in the barracks, and today I finally waited for you.”
"Second brother has become stronger!"
Lei Xingkong took a look at Yu Xiandeng. He hadn't seen him in the past few months. This "brother" had obviously become taller and stronger, and his skin had become more tanned. At first glance, he seemed to look a bit like Yu Hongtian.
"What does this mean? Although I have only been in the Yulin Army for a few months, I never stop exercising every day..." After boasting a few words, Yu Xiandeng went back to holding Lei Xingkong's hand and walking toward the outer city: "
Don't talk about this, Kong, have you just arrived? Have you eaten? You must not have eaten. Let's go, brother will take you to have a big meal."
Lei Xingkong had not seen the second brother of the Yu family for a long time, and he was very happy. He calmly acted like a "good brother" and let Yu Xiandeng pull him away.
As the two of them walked together, Yu Xiandeng kept asking: "How is my aunt? Is she still healthy? How is my father? How is my mother? Are you getting used to being in the county army..."
Lei Xingkong listened silently, but he felt an inexplicable warmth in his heart.
Everything seems to have returned to Qingshui County again. The second brother of the Yu family still likes to act like an "elder brother" as before, but he still loves and cares for his younger brother sincerely.
Soon, the two walked out of the outer city and arrived in front of a tall attic in the downtown area.
The attic has five floors, with carved beams and painted columns, which is very impressive.
On the beam in the middle of the gate hangs a large plaque with only three characters: "Zui Xian Tower".
On one side of Zuixian Tower, a green flag hangs diagonally, with the word "wine" written on it in large letters. It is obvious that this is a restaurant.
Yu Xiandeng pulled Lei Xingkong towards Zuixianlou and introduced: "This Zuixianlou is one of the best restaurants in the local area. Today, I will treat you to a meal to wash your hands."
"Thank you, second brother."
Lei Xingkong looked around. The interior of Zuixian Tower was resplendent and luxurious, and the various decorations were very luxurious, which really opened his eyes.
Under the guidance of the waiter, the two found a secluded spot on the second floor and sat down.
Yu Xiandeng quickly ordered a few dishes, and after the waiter left, he said to Lei Xingkong: "Akong, don't underestimate this Zuixian Tower. Ordinary people cannot go up to the third floor.
It is said that the current Emperor Yong was entertained here in the past, and the three-character plaque of Zuixian Tower is the calligraphy of Emperor Yong."
Hearing what Yu Xiandeng said, Lei Xingkong couldn't help but glance at the stairs leading to the third floor.
It is already a great honor for an ordinary restaurant to entertain the king of a country. In addition, Emperor Yong left a treasure of calligraphy, which naturally makes people flock to it.
However, these were irrelevant matters, and Lei Xingkong didn't care much about it. He thought about it and asked Yu Xiandeng directly: "Brother Yu, I heard that the Yulin Army was divided into Izumo Guards and Nine Guards."
Among the three departments of City Guard and Imperial Guard, which one are you in now?"
Yu Xiandeng's face turned slightly red and he said, "I...I'm in the Nine City Guards now."
"oh……"
Lei Xingkong nodded.
He knew Yu Xiandeng's cultivation level. Now he was at the level of the early stage of the second level of Canglong Jue. Even among the county army, he was not outstanding. When he came to the Yulin Army, it was certainly nothing. Being assigned to the Nine City Guards was not a big deal.
surprisingly.
After thinking about it, Lei Xingkong said: "Since the second brother is in the Nine City Guards, then I will also go to the Nine City Guards and work with the second brother, so that I can take care of you in the future."
Lei Xingkong didn't care which part he was assigned to, as long as he could work with Yu Xiandeng, he would be able to save Yu Xiandeng's life when he encountered the Battle of Anling in the future.
In addition, the most important thing for him is to improve his cultivation level as quickly as possible. This is what he relies on to save his life and save others on the battlefield.
Yu Xiandeng was startled when he heard this, but then he shook his head: "No, no, my father sent a message saying that you have made great contributions to the county army, so you were recommended to the Yulin Army. Although my father
I didn’t make it clear in the letter, but if you can be recommended by several generals, you will naturally have a good future, and you may even be able to join the Imperial Guard."
Lei Xingkong made a loud sound and said: "I don't care."
"Akong, you are not a child anymore. How can you say such a thing? Do you think you are not a good person because you are not in the same place as me?" Yu Xiandeng lectured in the tone of "brother": "It's not easy for you to get the recommendation.
, even if you can't enter the imperial guard, if you can enter and leave the cloud guard, you can immediately go to war if there is a war in the future, and fight against the princes and generals on the battlefield. It is not impossible. Why join the Nine City Guard like me?
?”
War? Expedition? Princes, generals and ministers?
Lei Xingkong was speechless. The second brother of the Yu family was still full of militaristic thoughts, but he didn't know where the princes and generals were on the battlefield. There were only living people and dead people!
However, it is useless to say anything at this time. Lei Xingkong has no excuses. He will join the Nine City Guards when the time comes. After the Battle of Anling, he will feel at ease.
