Chapter 59 Burning
Until then, these young people rarely associate themselves with death.
However, Chen Pingluo was beheaded during the day, but gradually brought these young people who felt good about themselves, like in the clouds, back to the world.
All the new students began to return to the campfire.
A sergeant in charge of inspecting the horses arrived at the lieutenant's side at this time and whispered the data.
The lieutenant frowned slightly, did not speak, but his gaze fell imperceptibly on Lin Yi's body.
It was only a moment before Lin Yi stood up and came to the front of the lieutenant general with everyone's puzzled eyes.
In fact, the reason is very simple, he does not have enough to eat.
The rations for the march were not much, two large pieces of millet and a slice of dried meat.
For ordinary cultivators, this is at most not starving, and it is impossible to meet Lin Yi's cultivation needs.
"I eat a lot, and I can't get enough of that. ”
Lin Yi arrived in front of the lieutenant general, bowed to him, and then said softly.
The general glanced at him indifferently and said, "If you are hungry for a few meals, you will get used to it, and the amount of food will naturally be small." ”
"No matter how small an elephant is, it can definitely eat more than a rat. ”
Lin Yi is very familiar with this kind of work style of a general in the army, and at the same time, he is also very aware of the rules in the army, so he is not afraid, but calmly raised his head and looked at the cold and hard lines on the general's face, and said: "I don't need jerky, I can change it to millet cake, if the general allows, I am willing to do more defense or hunt while resting, in exchange for more rations." ”
"Your name is Lin Yi?"
Listening to these words, the general's face softened slightly, and said, "Your father is Lin Wangbei?"
Lin Yi nodded, "Not bad." ”
"So you know the rules better than they do, and I can grant your request. The general nodded, "I can put you in charge of the sentry in the first half of the night, but I have to warn you that even if I allow you to exchange the food you hunt for more rations, you can't leave many traces that can be tracked, and you must make sure that you have enough rest time and don't let your combat power drop." ”
"I understand. Lin Yi bowed slightly and thanked him, and said, "Can I let Qi Zhuji and Xiao Suxin collaborate?"
"Exactly. The general's response was extremely simple.
However, when Lin Yi retired, the general drank him and said, "If you have a very heavy load on your body, you will have to change horses an hour earlier than the rest." ”
Lin Yi was stunned, but he immediately reacted and said, "Understood." ”
"What do you say?" Looking at Lin Yi who walked back, Qi Zhuji and Xiao Suxin asked.
Lin Yi said: "He agreed." ”
"I'm in charge of hunting, so I can practice the red fireflies. Qi Zhuji nodded, "Lin Yi, you are in charge of guarding, Xiao Suxin, you are about to condense yellow buds and cultivate wholeheartedly." ”
"I spent half an hour digging up some tubers. Xiao Suxin said: "It's not that you don't know Lin Yi's current amount of food, not to mention that when you enter Meishan, I'm afraid you have to find food by yourself many times." ”
Qi Zhuji nodded.
Lin Yi also nodded.
The deliberations of the three of them were thus decided.
When all the other freshmen had entered the camp tent to rest, Qi Zhuji and Lin Yi began to leave the camp and walk outside, while Xiao Suxin walked through the piles of bonfires that were nearly extinguished, collecting some of the freshmen's discarded cakes.
These cakes were too crude for the vast majority of the freshmen of the Southern Heavenly Courtyard to eat, so most of the freshmen had leftovers.
Xiao Suxin was very careful, she used the small sword to cut off the dust and bitten places of these millet cakes, and then collected them in a cloth bag.
This kind of millet cake is very strong, very dry and hard, and can be stored for a long time without spoiling.
But in terms of the amount of food that Lin Yi eats, these are far from enough.
After putting the cleaned millet cakes in Lin Yi's tent, she went into the overgrown field and began to dig up some useful wild vegetables and tubers.
Regarding these edible things in the wilderness, Qitian Academy also had a special professor, but for her and those classmates back then, this kind of digging wild vegetables and the like was more like a fun game, unlike today, it was about cultivation and survival.
Half an hour later, she returned to the edge of the camp with a large handful of wild herbs and a few tubers, which she washed and chopped without making a loud noise, and put them in a pot, broke some more millet cakes, and boiled a pot of millet and vegetable soup.
She also put this pot of vegetable soup into Lin Yi's marching camp tent, and then entered her camp to rest and start practicing.
In the middle of the moon, Qi Zhuji's figure appeared outside the camp, and he handed over a large bag of processed and washed rabbit meat to a sergeant in the camp for inspection, and then exchanged it for millet cakes.
Looking at the amount of rabbit meat, the sergeant's eyes showed some shocked looks, but while he handed Qi Zhuji some millet cakes, he also explained in a serious and soft voice: "Hunt pheasants and ducks as much as possible during the next hunt, rabbit meat is difficult to digest, and it is easy to be weak when you eat often, so it is not a good marching ration." ”
"Got it. Qi Zhuji listened calmly, and explained softly: "There is little woodland here, but there is a lot of grassland, and when I get to the woodland, I will hunt as much as possible." ”
The sergeant nodded silently, and waved Qi Zhuji to rest.
After Qi Zhuji returned to the camp for a while, Lin Yi's figure also appeared on the edge of the camp.
After handing over with the sergeant on duty, he returned to his camp and began to eat the food that Xiao Suxin had prepared for him.
The lieutenant had been sitting in the tent since nightfall.
His eyes were closed, but what the three of them were doing was clearly visible to him.
The lines of his face softened naturally.
He belongs to the imperial army, and in the guerrilla army, he is also more special, special from the fact that he, like the scar general, belonged to Xiao Yan's personal soldiers back then, and when Xiao Yan was not yet the current emperor, he fought side by side with Xiao Yan and the military officials who are now in power many times.
So today, a general like him from the Yongzhou Army is naturally more transcendent than the generals of the same rank in any other army.
However, like the vast majority of the generals and sergeants of the Yongzhou Army, most of them were ordinary Zhenwu soldiers and border soldiers.
He knows better than anyone what it means to be successful.
Therefore, a general like him naturally knows that his military exploits come from the blood and bones of those who fought side by side with Emperor Xiao Yan back then, so in this kind of war, they don't have to care about the feelings of those powerful ministers in the court at all.
The son of such a powerful minister who escaped from the battle, killing is killing. The treatment of these students is already much better than those young martial artists or cultivators who are transferred out of ordinary academies.
For these students of the Southern Heavenly Academy, who were born with golden keys, he didn't have any good feelings in his heart.
However, Lin Yi, Qi Zhuji and Xiao Suxin made his views change slightly.
......
Lin Yi was very full.
These marching foods, which seemed to most people to be extremely rude, were very palatable to him.
The simpler it is, the clearer the taste of the origin of the food will be in his mouth.
He was very satisfied and began to practice.
Although it took a lot of time, he knew that it would never be possible to continue practicing all day long in the future like he had when he was in Nantenyuan.
While patrolling outside this camp, he had already used the Red Dragon Silver Shark Bracelet to continuously refine his strength, and the flesh and blood on his arms and back had been tugging back and forth many times between the pain and the strength he could continue to exert his strength.
When he was full of food and cultivation at this time, it was very natural, and many of the air currents in his body quietly and quickly surged to the meridians of his arms and to his back.
Soon, in his perception, the flesh and blood on his back seemed to be on fire.
Then, the meridians in his arms, including the entire spine dragon, also began to burn.
