Five Immortals Gate

Chapter 11 Valley outside the city

At this time, Li Yan had followed Ji Junshi to the gate of the school military field. Just after he got out of the gate, Ji Junshi glanced at the waiting crowd in the distance and stopped at the gate. Li Yan also After following him out, he was about to tell the teacher to go over there and tell Li Guoxin about the situation before leaving. Before he could say anything, Master Ji had turned to look at him and said with a smile, "Is there anyone among the waiting people who sent you here?" ?”

Li Yan quickly replied, "Teacher Mingjian, one of my elders sent this disciple here to enlist in the army."

"Oh, then go and talk to him, and then leave with me." Ji Junshi said.

"Yes, thank you very much, teacher." Li Yan was overjoyed when he heard this. After bowing to Master Ji, he strode towards the crowd.

Several soldiers standing guard at the gate of the school heard the conversation between the two of them and knew that the boy in front of them had become the disciple of Master Ji. They knew how difficult it was for Master Ji to choose this apprentice. They were envious of Li Yan. One of them The man who looked like a leader stepped forward, crossed his arms and saluted Ji Junshi and said, "Congratulations, Ji Junshi, you finally got what you wanted." Ji Junshi nodded and smiled, and then continued to stand in place with his hands behind his back. ????

After the little boss congratulated him, he consciously retreated to his post, thinking in his heart that he would find an opportunity to get close to the newly recruited disciple Ji Junshi. With a teacher like Ji Junshi, it can be foreseen that this boy will grow into an extremely powerful person in the future. If you build a good relationship with a powerful person, you will probably have a backer in the army in the future. But at the same time, he shook his head slightly. There must be many people who think like him.

Not to mention how the little boss was thinking about it, Li Yan had already quickly arrived at the waiting area. He knew that it was not good to keep the teacher waiting for a long time and had to keep the story short, so he pulled Li Guoxin, who was looking forward to welcoming him, to one side of the crowd. , whispered to him, Li Guoxin was quite calm at first, but after hearing it, his mouth slowly opened wide, and the sounds of "ha, ha" came out from his throat from time to time, but he was speechless.

When Li Yan finished speaking, he was already standing there dumbfounded. Li Yan could only shout a few more times, but when he saw that he just responded to him with a blank "oh oh", he knew that this was the same as before, and he couldn't help but feel He secretly said ashamed.

Seeing that Uncle Guoxin couldn't react for a while, he had no choice but to salute him, turned around and walked quickly to the carriage to pick up his parcel, then turned around and walked towards the gate of the school military field.

Li Yan came to the teacher. Without waiting for the teacher to speak, he bowed and said, "This disciple has finished explaining to his uncle."

After hearing this, Master Ji smiled, "That's good, then you can go back to your home with me." After a pause, he continued, "It's just that I don't usually like to be surrounded by people, so it's just you and me who are going back together." ”

Li Yan felt a little strange when he heard this. He heard from the adults in the village what kind of pomp and majesty the officials looked like when they went out. Some of them were so strict that they had to clean the streets and drive away the people. However, he didn't think about it anymore. After all, he had never I have seen scenes of officials guarding and supporting them before going out.

After the two of them finished speaking, the Third Army Division waved his sleeves, turned around and walked in one direction along the wall of the school military field. His sleeves were fluttering at his sides, and his feet were already moving forward like running water.

Li Yan looked at the teacher's back

Ying, I’m really confused now, let’s go? Just use your legs to walk? It’s just that there are no followers or guards, but there are no carriages or horses? Li Yan smiled bitterly and wondered why this was different from what he heard in the village, especially what the old scholar said about official travel, which was not the same thing. It was not the time to think too much at the moment, so he hurriedly put the package on his shoulder. He tightened his grip and chased after him.

Just after his master and apprentice left, the crowd in the waiting area exploded with a loud bang. When Master Ji was standing at the door just now, someone already recognized him. Li Yan came out with him, and Master Ji came to the door. Li Yan said something, and then he walked over to this side, and then pulled someone to walk to one side of the crowd. This attracted the attention of many people, and a few good people also quietly moved closer to that side. Although Li Yan only whispered to Li Guoxin, but it was not a whisper. People who were closer could still hear some of the content, especially Li Guoxin's surprised and dull expression. Even people who originally thought it was nothing, saw that look After seeing the expression, I will also want to know the reason.

Li Guoxin regained consciousness after a while after Li Yan turned around and walked away. He thought to himself, "It turns out that person is Ji Junjun, but is what Li Yan said true? What does this mean? Li Yan became Ji Junshi." Disciple, why did you find a deputy lieutenant to protect you? God, is this true? "

Li Guoxin is not someone who has never been seen in the world. He has some knowledge of some of the positions in the military camp. He seems to remember that this is from the eighth rank. This is not something that a new recruit can get, even if he is a soldier of Bai Zhan. He doesn't have many great achievements, and it's rare for him to get promoted.

Li Guoxin was also in a state of confusion at this time. He didn't know what was going to happen to him for a moment. Slowly, after suppressing these shocks, he began to regain his composure, but he still had a question in his mind as to why Ji Junshi fell in love with Li Yan. Li Yan grew up in the village, and he could be said to have watched him grow up. , He didn't see anything that made him stand out. Li Yan's biggest characteristic was that he was more calm and composed than his peers, but this shouldn't be the reason why the third division division liked him.

Just as he was thinking about it secretly, the people who had just heard some conversations next to him were also surprised and told the news they had guessed to the people next to them. As soon as Ji Junshi left, the crowd there exploded. , many people think this is impossible, a person who just came to apply for the army can be able to hug the huge leg of Ji Junshi by chance? This was so unbelievable that many people directly surrounded Li Guoxin to ask questions. Li Guoxin's head was as big as a bucket for a moment. After replying a few words quickly, he squeezed out of the crowd, untied the carriage and left quickly. He also wanted to find an inn to stay and digest the news. He would get up early tomorrow morning and rush back to tell the news to Li Yan's parents, no, to the whole village. This boy had reached the sky in one step.

After the people who stayed behind confirmed the reliability of the news, many people also started to think about whether they should also find a way to find out more about this matter, so that their family members and relatives could also have something. What about the opportunity to embrace this thigh? For a while, everyone here also went to think about it with their own thoughts.

.

Li Yan followed Ji Junshi to the inner city of the North City Gate. Ji Junshi made no sound. He seemed to be strolling leisurely, but he was walking very fast. Fortunately, Li Yan had been following adults to hunt in the mountains since he was a child, so I can still keep up. Although I don’t say that I have used all my strength, I have already used seven or eight percent of my strength to keep up. Seeing the teacher’s lack of effort, I can’t help but yearn for the future life even more.

Seeing that he had arrived at the North City Gate, Li Yan couldn't help but wonder. Could it be that the Military Advisor's Mansion was near the city gate? But he immediately knew that he had guessed wrong, because the teacher had no intention of stopping and turning around.

When the two of them arrived at the city gate, there were seven or eight soldiers there, led by a small captain who looked like a team leader, checking the passers-by. Li Yan looked around, but they were not Liu Chengyong's group of soldiers. It must be a change of guard. gone back.

The man who looked like a squad leader quickly crossed his arms and saluted when he saw Master Ji approaching. The third division commander nodded slightly and walked straight away from the teams checking out the city. Li Yan also followed closely.

When Master Ji and the two of them left the north gate, the man who looked like the captain looked at Li Yan's back and said to himself, "It's strange that this person has a tight face, but he is not one of the guards in Master Ji's house. I don't know." Who can follow Master Ji like this?"??

After Li Yan followed Ji Junshi out of the city, he was already confused. There was only one avenue outside the city extending to the north. There were rolling mountains on both sides of the road. He didn't know how deep it was. Could it be that the teacher's residence was in a town dozens of miles away? ? He heard that there is also a garrison there, but it is too far. It is not easy to go back and forth every day without a carriage or horses. Although it is not difficult for him to travel dozens of miles, but think about how often it is like this. It's a bit boring.

On the way, Master Ji didn't say anything, as if he was thinking about something. He was not allowed to walk in front of him in a hurry. Li Yan could only follow closely behind, thinking wildly as he walked.

About two miles after leaving the city, the third army division slipped and walked toward the west mountain range on the left. Li Yan took a closer look and found that there was a mountain road extending into the west mountain range. This avenue was theirs. When I entered the city today, I walked through a lot of small roads leading into the mountains, so I didn't pay much attention to them, but I turned in at this moment.

The mountains on the west side are much deeper than the mountains on the east side. The mountains on the east side are about a few hundred miles long. Beyond that is the flat Central Plains landform, where you can already ride your horse wildly. But from now on, you don’t know where to go to the west. How far is it? People here only know that they can enter about four or five hundred miles to the west. Further inward, there are many unknown monsters running rampant. Anyone who enters is likely to die, even the most powerful masters in the world. Don't dare to go too deep.

Marshal Hong once led his masters to go deep for about 400 miles and encountered many unknown poisonous insects and beasts. Even if he retreated decisively, most of his men were killed or injured, and he himself was hit in the face by the tail of a vicious beast. , leaving a ferocious scar. If he had been slower to hide, the tail of the ferocious beast would have penetrated into his brain from his temple, and he would have died tragically on the spot.

Master Ji led Li Yan up the steps along the path. They walked

\u003c/di\u003e

Among the towering trees, there are thick bushes under the big trees. It is already the time of day, and the days of early autumn are still longer. Even so, it is already sunset, but the sky is still bright, only in the upper layer of the tall tree canopy. Covered by a layer of rich green leaves, the light was already a little dim, and from time to time in the forest came the chirping of tired birds returning to their nests, echoing crisply among the tall and empty trees.

After walking up for about a mile and climbing the last few stone steps, the vision suddenly opened up. A large open space appeared, about a hundred feet in diameter. This open space was surrounded by layers of towering trees. Yes, just leaving a two or three-person wide passage directly opposite the stone steps they just came up from.

It is difficult to find such a large piece of flat land in the mountains. This place must have been man-made. There are rows of tall bluestone houses on both sides of the site facing the exit of the stone steps leading down the mountain. There are about four or four in each row. There are five rooms lined up in a row. Although they are simple, they look clean and tidy. The large field in the middle is also paved with bluestone fragments. In some places, there are sandbags hung and sandpits built. Yes, but they are all uniform.

Li Yan stepped onto the ground and saw clearly that there were eight soldiers standing in two rows holding swords. They were staring at the entrance of the steps with vigilance. When they saw the third military division, they bowed neatly and then stood up straight again. , just glanced at Li Yan a few times and didn't ask any more questions.

The third army division nodded to them and walked straight in. After taking a few steps, he stopped and turned to one of them and said, "Oh, go and call the others out. I have something to ask you." Say it.”

"Yes." After one of the soldiers agreed, he quickly walked to the middle of the ground and said loudly, "My lord is back, everyone, come out!" After a while, more than a dozen people came to the venue from the bluestone houses on both sides. central.

Li Yan has been following the teacher since he got on the platform. He just saw that in addition to the eight soldiers at the entrance of the stone steps, there were also many people coming in and out of the bluestone houses on both sides. There were curls of green smoke rising from the roofs of two houses, and waves of fragrance could be heard from a distance. However, the light was already a little dim at this time, and the lights in those rooms were not enough to allow him to see clearly from a distance.

After these people stood up, Master Ji also came to the center of the field. He turned around and waved to Li Yan. Li Yan walked over. When he walked in front of these people, he realized that in addition to the eight soldiers just now, there were twelve more soldiers here. There were soldiers wearing the same military uniforms, and besides them, there were actually three middle-aged women here.

Among these people, the three middle-aged women and the two soldiers standing in the middle of the team stared at Li Yan curiously, while the rest stood there expressionless.

"This is my new disciple, Li Yan. He will live here in the future." Military Master Ji pointed at Li Yan and said to Li Yan, "This is where I live. Those twenty soldiers were sent here by the marshal." The remaining women were in charge of our food and clothing and the washing of our clothes.”

Li Yan looked at them, but he was surprised to find that some of them looked at them strangely, which made him confused.
