Chapter 9: Enlistment
The broken wooden door of the old man's house was about to be broken, and the loud knock woke the old man up.
He hurriedly ran out and shouted, "Come on, don't knock on the door!"
The old man opened the door, and the people outside strode in.
"Where's the high fool?"
The man who was in charge came in and asked. When he asked, his eyes were already fixed on Gao Zhengyang, and he said loudly: "You are!"
The person who spoke had a black and red face, a large head and small eyes. He wore a loose leather armor on his body, looked at people with slanted eyes, and foamed at the mouth when he spoke, looking very happy.
Gao Zhengyang didn't look at him, his attention was on the person behind him.
The man was a thin man, wearing leather armor inlaid with iron plates, a long knife pinned to his waist, and long leather boots at his feet. The whole body is cleaned up and down very neatly, and it looks capable and heroic.
His face was dark, and there was a fierce look between his eyebrows. Standing there with a cold face and not saying a word, it gives people a strong sense of oppression.
The old man glanced at it secretly, his face changed, and he hurriedly withdrew his gaze.
"A soldier, or a soldier!"
Gao Zhengyang, such a person, has seen a lot, and he can see the identity of the other party at a glance. Moreover, this person has extremely strong strength, much stronger than the female butcher Lin Niangzi.
Gao Zhengyang just glanced at it, and immediately withdrew his gaze. He said slowly: "There are no high fools here. ”
"And who are you?" asked the other party with a hint of anger on his face.
"Gao Zhengyang. Gao Zhengyang's voice was not high, but a few words were very clear.
The man's eyes widened, and he reprimanded: "Presumptuous, dare to talk to me like this." ”
The old man next to him hurriedly interceded: "Mr. Lin, don't be angry, you have something to say." ”
Gao Zhengyang said angrily: "Then how do you speak, are you screaming like this!"
Lin Jiang couldn't stand this, so he wanted to reach out and beat Gao Zhengyang. But seeing the iron eagle next to him, his expression was cold, and his heart couldn't help but tighten, and he didn't dare to play with his majesty anymore.
He held back his anger and said, "You serve in the army instead of Lin Ye of the Lin family, right?"
"Hmm. ”
"I went to Dongying to report before noon today. ”
Lin explained with a cold face, and then turned around and left.
When he was about to go out, he glared at Gao Zhengyang hatefully. I thought to myself: "When you get to the barracks, see how I clean you up." ”
What made him even more depressed was that Gao Zhengyang didn't look at him at all.
Waiting for Lin to leave with Tie Ying, the old man sighed and said, "That general Lin Dajiang can only scream, so there is nothing to be afraid of." The iron eagle who didn't speak, had a cold temperament, and his methods of leading the troops were fierce and extremely terrifying. ”
After thinking about it, he said with some concern: "If you recruit people now, you must be going to fight with the wolf clan!"
The old man said to Gao Zhengyang: "There are few wolf clansmen, but they are naturally fierce and good at fighting, if they break through the city wall, the Tielin Department will be finished." ”
"It's not your turn to worry about this kind of big thing......," Gao Zhengyang said with a smile.
The encounters in the past few days have left Gao Zhengyang with no good impression of the Tielin Department. He doesn't care much about the survival of the Iron Forest Department.
The old man turned his eyes and said in a low voice: "Your boxing skills are good, but once you go to the battlefield, you will definitely die." Why don't you follow me into the mountains to find that master, not only can you avoid disaster, but you can also learn a great skill that can penetrate the heavens and the earth......"
Gao Zhengyang is really a little excited, it's good to be able to leave this broken place.
However, going into the mountains is not necessarily a good thing.
Needless to say, the vicious demon beasts and barbarian tribes. Even more dangerous is this old man.
He took great pains to take him into the mountains, and who knows what his idea was.
Gao Zhengyang thought that it would be delayed for a few days. I didn't expect it to start so soon.
Is it just that he is deliberately targeted at some of the unknowns? Or is the situation in the Iron Forest Department really not good!
After thinking about it for a while, Gao Zhengyang still decided to take a look. As long as he can get through today and let the titanium alloy complete the first stage of fusion, he will have the power to protect himself.
At that time, whether to go or stay was only in my own thoughts. No more worries.
"Old man, I'm hungry, cook quickly. ”
Gao Zhengyang shouted and continued to practice boxing. He didn't seem to care about what had just happened.
This young man is so calm when he encounters things, it is really beyond the imagination of the old man.
The old man scratched his head, wanting to ask something, but seeing Gao Zhengyang's calm appearance, he wisely gave up his plan to talk and obediently went to cook.
After breakfast, Gao Zhengyang continued to practice boxing.
The old man sat on the sidelines, unsure of what he was thinking.
When it was almost noon, Gao Zhengyang estimated that the time was almost up, and walked out with a knife. Before going out of the gate, he turned around and said to the old man jokingly:
"Don't run around, I'm going to come back to eat and sleep. And don't steal my braised meat while I'm not around. ”
Without waiting for the old man to respond, Gao Zhengyang had already strode away.
The old man looked at Gao Zhengyang's straight back, and said with a complicated gaze: "If you don't come back, the rest of the meat will be cheap for me." ”
He and Gao Zhengyang did not get along happily. Gao Zhengyang also used a knife to cut off a layer of his scalp. These old men remember it.
It's just that after watching Gao Zhengyang's boxing practice and seeing the god in Gao Zhengyang's boxing, the old man admired and appreciated this young man a little more.
Although the old man doesn't have much vision, he can see that Gao Zhengyang is a martial arts wizard.
This is incomparable to other teenagers in the Iron Forest Department.
The most important thing is that Gao Zhengyang gave him hope.
At the beginning, the strong man said that as long as the person he brought satisfied him, he could give him an elixir to prolong his life.
With the other party's all-in-the-earth supernatural powers, it is naturally impossible to deceive him.
Therefore, the old man sincerely hopes that Gao Zhengyang will come back.
However, Iron Eagle has a fierce temperament, and if he falls into his hands, he will shed his skin if he does not die. Gao Zhengyang also offended the son of Qianzong Tiefeng.
No matter how clever Gao Zhengyang's boxing technique is, he is not a real martial artist.
There are many masters in the military camp, and military law is ruthless, so it is too easy to fiddle with Gao Zhengyang.
Gao Zhengyang is almost certain to die if he goes!
Thinking of this, the old man was a little depressed, if Gao Zhengyang died, those elixirs would have nothing to do with him.
The old man thought about it, but he was still unwilling to give up. But his status is low, even if he wants to help, it's useless.
"That's right, Yue Qingxue!" The old man had a flash of inspiration in his heart, and thought of Yue Qingxue.
This youngest priest in the Tielin Department has a lot to do with Gao Zhengyang. If she can help, she should be able to save Gao Zhengyang.
The old man didn't dare to go to the barracks, but he was not afraid of anything when he looked for the moon and the snow. Even if things don't work out, there's no loss.
The Predator's barracks were just below the city walls.
The buildings here are more neat, surrounded by wooden fences more than a foot high. There are also two guards at the gate.
The guard, dressed in tattered and dirty leather armor, leaned crookedly against the wooden fence, holding an ebony spear in his arms, and his face was full of wind and frost, and his expression was dull, and he didn't seem to have any interest in a single qiē.
Gao Zhengyang walked over, and the two guards just squinted at each other, without even asking.
"Excuse me, how to get to Dongying?" asked Gao Zhengyang politely.
"Just go straight. The younger guard on the left replied impatiently.
Gao Zhengyang nodded and didn't say much. With the other party's attitude, he will naturally no longer be bored.
Dongying is indeed easy to find. Gao Zhengyang entered the barracks, and after walking a short distance along the main road, he saw a group of teenagers gathering in an open field.
Because of the obstruction of the house in front, you can't see it outside the gate.
Iron Eagle's tall body is extremely conspicuous among a group of teenagers. What's more, he wears armor and saber, and his fierce momentum is really outstanding, and it is incomparable to other teenagers.
Gao Zhengyang didn't want to cause trouble, so he quietly walked over and stood at the back.
The momentum of the iron eagle was too strong, and the young people who pressed it did not dare to breathe, and no one dared to speak.
Standing in the back, Gao Zhengyang was so high that he could calmly look at the others.
It was found that most of the other teenagers were also ragged and discolored, and they didn't look much better than him.
However, the teenagers here are all sturdy. Although he had eaten meat for two days, he was also the thinnest and shortest of his stature.
Iron Eagle glanced sideways at the sundial in the middle of the camp and said, "It's time." ”
A sundial is a tool used to keep time with the shadow of the sun.
The sun shines on the dial in the center, leaving a shadow pointing at the wooden disc. Through the guò shadow, you can roughly judge the time.
As Iron Eagle spoke, the black shadow on the dial pointed to the position of noon.
Gao Zhengyang was a little surprised, Tie Ying actually had a good sense of time. Or rather, this person is particularly rigorous.
In the previous life, Gao Zhengyang was the strongest man in the army, but he hated this kind of person with a strict and rigid personality the most.
"From today, you are officially recruits. Military law is ruthless, and there is only one thing you have to do here: obey orders. ”
Iron Eagle said, slowly making a round. His gaze was as sharp as a knife, and the young men who were swept by his gaze lowered their heads in fear, and no one dared to look at him.
"In the past few days, Mr. Yulin has been training you. Just ask him if you have any questions. ”
Tie Ying said to Lin Jiang again: "The later people will each have ten lashes." Thirty lashes for those who arrived after dinner. ”
Tie Ying said indifferently, but Lin Dajiang was shocked.
The punishment in the army is very severe, and ten lashes can beat a person half to death. Thirty lashes went down, and they were all killed.
But Lin Dajiang didn't dare to object, and hurriedly responded: "Yes, I understand." ”
When Iron Eagle left, everyone let out a long sigh.
It was Lin Dajiang, and his expression was obviously much more relaxed.
He pulled out another horn from his waist and said to the boys, "As soon as the horn sounds, you will gather here at once." If it's a long horn, it's ready to fight......"
"The long horn, how long is that?"
"Fight, where to fight?"
"What fight?"
"We're recruits and we're going to fight?"
Lin Dajiang babbled about the rules of the barracks, but his level was not high, and the teenagers were not very smart, and he talked about it several times, but there were still many people who didn't understand.
Lin Dajiang has a sense of joy again, and the teenagers are not afraid of him. The gossip around him made Lin Dajiang's head dizzy and unclear.
Gao Zhengyang was funny watching from the side, this Lin Dajiang was really incompetent beyond imagination. No wonder the old man looked down on him.
"Alright, shut up. ”
Lin Dajiang suddenly shouted loudly and suppressed all his voices.
After all, the teenagers were timid, and Lin Dajiang's angry appearance made them dare not speak anymore.
Lin Dajiang frightened the teenagers and breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. "Follow me, first go to the water room to take a bath, and then go and get your clothes and weapons. ”
Lin Dajiang beckoned, "Follow me." ”
