Chapter 30: Master Plotter
After eating, Lone Star went back to the room to clean up, straightened his clothes, and waited outside Xiaokong's door, because Xiaokong was going to take him to apprenticeship.
The two of them crossed several downtown streets and arrived at a camp in the eastern suburbs of the city.
The gate of the camp is made of two huge stones as pillars, and then a square slab as a beam, and there are several big characters on the wooden board: Qingmingwei Eastern Suburbs Camp.
The two guards at the door saw that Koku and Lone Star were both saluting respectfully.
A lean guard quickly ran to the camp to report.
After a while, a rickety old man walked out quickly, holding a somewhat torn animal skin book in his arms.
"The little empty girl came to the camp in the eastern suburbs, and the plan was far away. A deep voice came, and the old man named Zetu said respectfully.
"Ha, Captain Zetu is still a bookish man, what formation are you studying?" Xiao Kong said to the old man with his slender little hand behind his back.
"Where, where, the old man knows that his talent is dull, his cultivation is slow, and he has the mission of guarding the eastern suburbs, so he should try his best to find suitable exercises, improve his strength, and be a good gatekeeper for the Red Whisker Palace. The old man said modestly.
"Captain Zetu is too modest, I still have something to trouble you this time. With a shy smile lining the corners of Xiao Kong's mouth, he stepped forward and bowed slightly.
"Oh, don't dare, don't dare, how can the old man receive such a big gift, the little empty girl has something to order, and what she can do must be completed. Seeing Xiaokong's behavior, the old man's face changed, and he hurriedly stepped forward to help Xiaokong.
"This is the Lone Star Young Hero I brought back from the Medicine Spirit Valley, and Elder Redbeard has agreed to accept him staying in the Spirit Clan. This is to ask Captain Cetu to take him in, teach him some survival skills, and see how talented he is, and live up to Elder Redbeard's good intentions to keep him. Xiao Kong stood tall, straightened up, and said solemnly.
"Ha, since Elder Redbeard has agreed, that old man should try his best to help the Lone Star Young Hero, please rest assured. The old man put his arm on his chest and saluted solemnly.
"Okay, then thank you, Captain Zetu. Lone Star, in the future, you will come here to train every day according to Captain Cetu's arrangement, and you must take advantage of this opportunity. Xiao Kong turned around, his eyes like mirrors facing Lone Star, his right hand resting on his left shoulder, and said with a look on his face.
Looking at Xiaokong's appearance, Lone Star suddenly felt the pressure, it was like a familiar feeling on the earth, but now it was impossible to escape, he understood that although everything was fine now, however, the surrounding environment and Xiaokong's expression told him that in this otherworldly space, strength is the way to survive, there is no free "subsistence allowance, aid station, well-wishers" and so on, and in order to figure out the reason why he came here, he must also persevere.
"Hey......" Looking at the soft back of Xiaokong's departure, Lone Star felt a sense of loss in his heart, but he understood that his life was really beginning now......
"Lone Star Boy, please, come and sit in my barracks first. Captain Zetu squinted his eyes and smiled at Lone Star.
"Master Plotter, please. Lone Star stretched out his hand and let Cetu go first.
The two of them came to the barracks house.
The design of the camp tent is more like a tower, the space inside is quite large, a huge wooden pillar in the middle, supporting the whole camp; there are a lot of bows and arrows, swords, shields and crossbows hanging on the wall, and there are also some guns, spears, halberds and other various weapons on the ground weapon racks, like a pillow waiting for the momentum.
The two sat down separately, and a young sergeant brought tea to them, and then stood in the tent and stood by.
"Lone Star Young Hero, have you ever had the experience of practicing martial arts or enlightening before?" asked the old man as he stroked his beard and narrowed his eyes.
"Oh, I'm just a beginner in martial arts, and now my cultivation is also very low, just refining my body. ”
"Ha, the young man is humble, look at the young man's martial arts, he will become a great weapon in the future. ”
"Thank you, Master Cetu, for your appreciation. ”
"Haha, young man doesn't need to be nervous, the old man is just curious. Although the cultivation realm of the old decay is not high, he has finally studied a lot of ancient books, and his vision is still a little.
Shaoxia's clothes are not ordinary materials, but the armor refiner's carefully made life, looking at its form, it should be the fire in the furnace, as the so-called, heaven and earth are furnaces, yin and yang are carbon, and the brilliance is in the universe, and it is cultivated in the world. ”
The old man said this, his sharp eyes also showed surprise, stroked his beard, and nodded.
As soon as Cetu said this, Lone Star was also a monk who was the second Zhang, and he was puzzled: "The identity of the life grid is extraordinary, not to mention the life grid, my identity is just an ordinary outsider, is it possible that the foreign one becomes a boutique?" Lone Star muttered in his heart, and he didn't know whether to be happy or worried.
"The master is also praised, Lone Star can't stand it. ”
"Haha, Lone Star Young Man, it's not like that, what kind of eyesight the little empty girl has, the person who can be valued by her must be an extraordinary person. I'm just providing Shaoxia with a place to practice, and I can't afford to be a master. ”
Cetu knew in his heart that Xiao Kong must want this kid to practice in the eastern suburbs camp, and then prepare to worship the masters in the clan as a teacher, and then participate in the sect test of the Qingming Sect, how to be worthy of the master with the fourfold cultivation of his own ququ refining body.
"Teacher Cetu doesn't have to be like this, the younger generation doesn't dare to make a mistake. ”
"Okay, in that case, I'll find someone to take you to the cultivation ground, Waga, come in. ”
With a shout, a swarthy man came in from outside the tent and bowed to Cetu and Lone Star.
"Waga, you take the Lone Star Young Man to the cultivation ground of our Eastern Suburbs Camp, and then follow the Young Hero, if you have any orders, you must do it. ”
"Yes, little one understands. ”
With that, Waga waited for Lone Star to walk out of the camp and towards a large stake field in the distance.
On the way, looking at Vaga's sharp little eyes and dark skin, Lone Star also had questions in his heart.
"Shaoxia, you don't have to be surprised, the skin of our scouts is smeared with special burnt mud, so that it can be better hidden when investigating. ”
Waga has the acumen of a scout, and he uses his peripheral vision to detect the anomaly of solitary travel.
"Ha, Brother Waga is really powerful, worthy of being a scout, and he knows everything. ”
Lone Star also flattered a few words, easing the awkward atmosphere.
After passing a depression basin, the two saw a piling site.
"This place is a bit similar to the Dianwu Hall in Jia Town, it seems that there are no new tricks, and you have to rely on yourself. ”
Lone Star looked at the situation at the piling yard and thought to himself.
