I would like to apologize in advance to the brothers who have collected this book, because I have been busy for half a year with things like buying a house and decorating it, and it was only today that I finally had time to write again!
I started to stop writing when I was in Sanjiang. It was a waste of a precious opportunity, and I felt a little regretful. However, I don't care about popularity, I just want to write the story in my heart. The only thing is that I failed to live up to the opportunity given by the editor.
I feel very sad and would like to express my deep apologies.
Then, keep writing.
================================
After pondering for a while, Lei Xingkong returned the sword to its sheath. Regardless of whether the fat captain was a superior officer, he directly asked in a low voice: "What's your name?"
The fat captain fell to the ground and did not dare to act like a superior officer. He replied: "My surname is Chen, my name is Zhongxing, and I am the captain of the military law camp."
"It turns out to be a military judge."
Lei Xingkong nodded and continued to ask: "So, Lord Protector Luo just asked you to take me to the tent to check, but he didn't ask you to take anyone, right?"
Chen Zhongxing was stunned for a moment and was speechless.
If he only went by the contents of the order letter, he indeed had no right to arrest Lei Xingkong. However, on the way here, he made a plan in private and prepared to use his official power to pressure Lei Xingkong and make Lei Xingkong confess directly.
Only in this way can he win the favor of the captain when he returns to the county army camp in the future, but he never expected that it would be self-defeating in the end.
Lei Xingkong ignored the embarrassment of the fat captain in front of him, and then asked aggressively: "Since you don't have a military order, why do you want to accuse me when you come here? Huh, I don't know what I am guilty of?"
Chen Zhongxing said quickly: "You are too afraid of the enemy to move forward..."
"fart!"
Lei Xingkong was not polite and immediately yelled loudly: "How could I not move forward in fear of the enemy? When the Sky Fire Wolf Cavalry came, I didn't fight to the death. That Qi Wuwei left his soldiers to escape, and now he falsely accuses me, he should be held accountable!"
"
Chen Zhongxing was startled by Lei Xingkong. After he calmed down, he quickly said: "Qi Wuwei is a famous general. You... what evidence do you have for saying that he escaped?"
"After a famous general? I see... Humph, Qi Wuwei falsely accused me, why didn't I see you asking him for proof?"
After a pause, Lei Xingkong sneered and said: "Qi Wuwei is greedy for survival and escape. Everyone in my camp can see it clearly. That day I advised him not to go out to fight with the barbarians, but he didn't listen, which ultimately caused the death of his subordinates."
Almost the entire army died in the battle, but he escaped. If our brothers at the outpost had not fought hard and killed all the barbarians, the entire outpost would have been trampled to the ground by now."
"Have you killed all the invading Sky Fire Wolf Riders?"
Chen Zhongxing was startled when he heard this, and then he laughed loudly. He felt that he had finally caught the loophole in Lei Xingkong's empty talk. After laughing, he pointed at Lei Xingkong and yelled: "The Sky Fire Wolf Cavalry is extremely fierce.
There are only about thirty people in your outpost, so even if it is difficult to resist, how can you talk about killing the enemy?"
The Heavenly Fire Wolf Cavalry is different from ordinary barbarians. Even if the most elite cavalry of Dayong Kingdom encounters them, it is impossible to defeat them without six or seven times more troops. At this time, I heard Lei Xingkong say that the soldiers at the outpost alone can't defeat them.
Chen Zhongxing naturally couldn't believe that he had the power to kill all fifty Heavenly Fire Wolf Cavalry.
Lei Xingkong hummed twice but did not speak immediately.
Seeing this, Chen Zhongxing thought that Lei Xingkong was guilty and secretly thought that he was striking while the iron was hot. He quickly continued to question: "Lei Yingzheng, how can people believe you when you say such things?"
Lei Xingkong responded coldly: "Believe it or not, it's up to you!"
Chen Zhongxing straightened his back again and said loudly: "Lei Yingzheng, it's okay to stay with me. If you don't have the certificate, you won't be able to explain it to Mr. Luo, the captain of the North Guard School."
"oh?"
When Lei Xingkong heard this, he tilted his head and looked at the other party with squinted eyes. After a while, he suddenly smiled and said nothing nonsense. He just waved to the old team leader behind him...
The old team leader understood what Lei Xingkong meant, turned his head and whispered a few words to several outpost soldiers, led a dozen people into the outpost warehouse, took out a bunch of things from inside, and threw them in front of Chen Zhongxing.
"This is……"
After just a few glances, the expressions of Chen Zhongxing and the county soldiers he brought with him suddenly changed.
They all saw clearly that those things were heads pickled with lime, including human heads and animal heads.
Those human heads are those of barbarians at first glance, while the animal heads are those of four-eyed giant wolves, and they cannot be faked at all.
All the human and animal heads add up to at least a hundred, which is roughly estimated to be the number of fifty Skyfire Wolf Riders.
Seeing Chen Zhongxing and others dumbfounded, the old captain pointed to the heads on the ground and said with a smile: "Master Chen, these are the heads of the barbarians that we have chopped off, and we are about to send them to the county army camp to receive the merit!"
Chen Zhongxing was completely stunned. He swallowed and asked in a difficult voice: "This...these...well, are they the heads of Skyfire...Skyfire Langqi?"
"That's right!"
The old corps leader, who has become a mature man, nodded while pouring dirty water on Qi Wuwei: "My master Ying Zheng originally advised Qi Wuwei to stick to the outpost, but Qi Wuwei didn't listen and insisted on going out to fight. In the end, his brothers were exhausted.
We all lost our lives, and we killed less than twenty Sky Fire Wolf Riders. The remaining thirty or so Wolf Riders were all killed by our Yingzheng master... I never thought that Qi Wuwei would actually leave him behind in the end.
He committed suicide, fled in despair, and then turned around and dared to frame my master Ying Zheng, it is really unreasonable."
Chen Zhongxing thought for a while, and still said in a questioning tone: "It's a matter of great importance, and we need proof."
"Certificates are bullshit!"
Lao Wu was so rude that he spat at Chen Zhongxing on the spot, which made Chen Zhongxing look livid, but he did not dare to attack.
Then, the old captain did not take into account the Shangguan's mood and said angrily: "What evidence does Qi Wuwei have to frame up my master Yingzheng? However, it is actually easy to obtain evidence. That day, Qi Wuwei's subordinate
There is another battalion who has not left the camp due to injuries, which can help my lord to prove it."
At this time, Chen Zhongxing had nothing to say.
With all the witnesses and material evidence available, how can one be held accountable?
After pondering for a while, Chen Zhongxing reluctantly said: "Lei Yingzheng, please quickly hand over the defense. Tomorrow we will set off for Yanyun Fortress, and you can confront Qi Wuwei face to face in front of the guard's tent at the North Guard School."
Lei Xingkong snorted coldly and said nothing. He immediately turned around and left without even looking at Chen Zhongxing.
Behind him, the soldiers at the outpost also dispersed, leaving only the lime heads on the ground, which was particularly dazzling.
…
the next day.
Lei Xingkong handed over the defense, led the soldiers at the outpost, and set off for Yanyun Fortress.
It is said that it is handing over defense, but in fact there is nothing to hand over. It is just to free up space, simply pack your bags, and then leave.
On the side of the county army camp, seven battalions were left to take over the defense. Chen Zhongxing led one battalion to "escort" Lei Xingkong and others along the way.
As soon as he left the gate of the post, Lei Xingkong issued an order to the soldiers of the post: "Everyone is here, run forward!"
Regardless of whether they are fierce tiger soldiers or old and weak soldiers, they have been practicing according to Lei Xingkong's method these days. After listening to his orders, they immediately ran away without saying a word.
The people from the battalion led by Chen Zhongxing were all riding tall horses. When they saw Lei Xingkong and the others running on the road as soon as they left the camp, they were all startled, wondering what they were going to do.
"Sir, should we follow?"
In the blink of an eye, Lei Xingkong and the others ran away, and a guard beside Chen Zhongxing asked quickly.
Chen Zhongxing came back to his senses and gritted his teeth and said: "Follow, of course I have to follow, because I will lose that boy named Lei. Who can bear the responsibility for this crime when we get to the captain?"...
After saying that, Chen Zhongxing immediately led his men and soldiers to catch up.
From early morning to noon.
Lei Xingkong and his group just ran forward.
Among them, most of the old, weak and stroke people fell behind due to lack of physical strength. Only a few people, including Meng Dezhou and Yu Tianhua, could keep up.
But the tiger soldiers all persisted.
Of course, the old and weak soldiers who were left behind would slowly catch up, but they did not give up because of this.
Lei Xingkong saw this result and was very satisfied.
In fact, running quickly is not just about exercising physical strength, but more importantly, it is about exercising the soldiers' mentality.
On the battlefield, those with a strong mind will definitely be more powerful, while those with a weak mind will often be killed by those with a strong mind, even if they are physically strong.
What Lei Xingkong wants to do is to temper the minds of the soldiers at the outpost. Physical training is secondary. After all, he holds the soul-seeding flag in his hand. Even soldiers who are not strong enough can be used for a period of time as long as they are equipped with a secondary flag.
be promoted within.
Sitting on the ground, he let the soldiers slowly drink some water and eat some dry food. Lei Xingkong ignored the surprised looks from Chen Zhongxing's battalion and waited until all the soldiers under his command returned safely and had a good rest. Then he gave the order again to let the outpost
The soldiers continued to run forward...
In the evening, the entire army was stationed in camp.
Lei Xingkong ordered a fire to be made for cooking, and the stragglers caught up again one after another.
Chen Zhongxing and his soldiers looked at the group of people at Dibei Post with a strange look in their eyes.
Along the way, they felt tired even while riding on the horse, let alone running on their legs?
Are these guys still ordinary county troops? You have to know that with such physical strength, even in the entire Dayong Army, I am afraid that few people can match it!
Have had a meal.
The soldiers at Dibei Post did not rest. Under the supervision of the three team commanders, the tiger soldiers and the old and weak soldiers lined up and began to practice the tiger sword technique.
At this time, the people in Chen Zhongxing's battalion were even more surprised: "It's so late, why are you still practicing?"
In the county army camp, even the most elite troops will not go into drills after dinner. How can they be so ruthless in training?
"You made the wrong move with this knife. The knife became crooked halfway through."
"You all need to know that no matter how tired you are, you must still be meticulous when using the knife, otherwise you will lose your life and property."
"You can't be rigid when you meet an enemy. Some are tall and some are short. If you don't know how to adapt, how can you cut your throat with a knife?"
"If you want to defend the enemy's killing move, you have to fight tooth and nail. The lives of the other two brothers are entrusted to you..."
When the soldiers at the outpost were practicing their sword skills, they could hear the instructions from the three corps commanders from time to time.
Chen Zhongxing's battalion looked at the swordsmanship of the outpost soldiers, which were sharp and cunning but perfectly coordinated. They couldn't help but recall the head-on confrontation with the outpost soldiers yesterday... Then, they turned to look at the sky fires on the carriage behind them.
When the Wolf Rider took his head, all the doubts in his heart were dispelled at this moment.
On the other side, Lei Xingkong, the chief officer, did not watch the drills of the soldiers at the outpost. He just lay quietly on the desert ground, closing his eyes and recuperating.
At this time, the sun sets, the heat accumulated on the ground is gradually dissipating, and the surrounding temperature begins to cool.
Lei Xingkong's body was close to the ground and he could clearly feel the gentle earth energy coming from the surface. Although the quality was not comparable to the earth energy in the water prison, it was still considerable.
In the sea of consciousness, the energy emitted from the metal fragments and every meridian or acupuncture point in the body are ingeniously connected at this moment.
Through the skin on the body surface, the qi machines seem to turn into thousands of fibrous roots, constantly absorbing the earth qi from the ground to strengthen itself.
In the past, Lei Xingkong could not absorb earth energy unless he was in an underground water prison.
However, since his previous cultivation was successfully promoted to the sixth level of Canglong Jue, and the metal fragments turned into phantoms of the square inch of heaven and earth, his sense of the earth's energy has become even more acute, a thousand times more than before, even if it is only very weak.
He can now smoothly absorb every bit of his earth energy and use it for himself.
"this……"
The Canglong energy in my body circulated to the forty-ninth week, and a feeling of completeness and ease suddenly appeared in my heart.
Lei Xingkong concentrated his attention and observed, and was extremely surprised to find that a few entities were born on the edge of the metal fragments.
"Yes, yes..."
Lei Xingkong breathed a long sigh of relief, and couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly.
After more than ten days of hard training, the metal fragment finally "grows" a little bit. Although it is only an almost imperceptible little bit, it just confirms what Xiao Shen said. As his cultivation level continues to improve, the metal fragment grows.
The remaining pieces will gradually be repaired.
If the metal fragments can be restored to their original state, Lei Xingkong is extremely looking forward to it.
