Chapter 111 Friends come from afar

"You're not twenty years old?" he asked suddenly.

"It's still a few months away." Xue Chang replied, some memories of the original owner flashed through his mind, and immediately asked nervously: "Can't you join the war if you are under twenty years old?"

"There is no explicit regulation." The young official rubbed his eyes and raised his head and said, "There are many strange people in the world. In the past, let alone those who participated in the war at the age of nineteen, thirteen and fourteen. However... you martial arts people are different from ordinary people. As long as you are just eighteen, you can be recruited and joined the army to fight. You martial arts people have been practicing martial arts since childhood, which costs a lot, but it takes more than ten years of hard practice to have good martial arts. Therefore, the agreement reached by the court and various martial arts sects stipulates that 'Only martial arts people who are over twenty must participate in short-term military training organized by the Martial Arts Division every autumn. You should not have participated in this military training, right?"

Xue Chang thought about it and shook her head.

"That's right." The young official pointed to the document and said: "There is neither your military training record nor your military level, nor your appropriate military service or temporary official rank on it."

Xue Chang was a little confused and immediately asked humbly: "What is the level of force, suitable troops and temporary official rank?"

"The martial arts of your martial arts are divided into high and low, and there are often a big gap, right? So our Martial Arts Division divides the martial arts people participating in military training into four levels: A, B, C, D, A has the highest martial arts skills and D has the lowest martial arts skills. Moreover, after every year's military training, the evaluation of this martial arts level will change, because some people improve their martial arts quickly, while others are slower..."

"In other words, the imperial court divided all the martial arts people in the Great Zhou into four levels: A, B, C and D according to their martial arts?" Xue Chang was a little surprised.

"You didn't understand that our Martial Arts Command only divided most martial arts people who participated in military training into these four levels. Some people participated in the training, but we cannot evaluate it, such as the elders of major sects; there are also those who did not participate in the training, such as the heads of major sects; there are also martial arts people with extremely high martial arts skills, such as Dugu Changhui, the real person in the country, how do you evaluate it? Do you dare to evaluate it?" the young official explained seriously, with a little dissatisfaction in his tone.

"So this is just a very rough assessment, just to facilitate training and combat. Our Martial Arts Command will divide these martial arts people into various types of troops based on their martial arts level, their martial arts characteristics and weapons they use, and then decide what official rank they temporarily granted based on their performance and ability."

"What kind of troops can we martial arts people join?" Xue Chang asked humbly.

"Ordinary infantry, heavy infantry, cavalry, archers, sword soldiers... and there are still no night."

"Not you collect at night?"

"It's the scout, the soldiers responsible for reconnaissance and the enemy's soldiers." The young official explained: "Today, the commander went out to do business. It is said that he would not come back in four days. Several general inspectors and inspectors also went to do military mobilizations and could not make a rough assessment for you. But it doesn't matter. I will register you first. Five days later, all the martial arts people who are going to participate in the war must come here to gather and set off together.

So you have to come earlier and come to me to apply for force assessment. You should get the results soon, so that the commander can make a decision so that you can be affiliated with a certain team before you set out, so that you will not be affiliated and be quickly assigned to the battlefield. This is not only unfavorable for you to make meritorious service, but also very dangerous."

"Thank you! Thank you very much!" Xue Chang immediately bowed deeply and asked excitedly: "May I ask your surname?"

"I am not an adult. My name is Zhou Chengyu. I am just an ordinary chief in the Military Inspection Division." The young official said seriously: "Forty years ago, the Iron Blood Changhemen saved my grandfather's family and had no choice but to repay you. You have had close contact with the Iron Blood Changhemen. I will do a little favor, which can be regarded as a small reward.

You must remember! Five days later, come to me earlier and don’t have to bring anything else, just bring your best weapons and sufficient healing pills.”

Xue Chang thanked him again and then left.

In the afternoon, Zhou Qiao, Luo Dachui and Geng Po came as promised.

Not long after, they discovered that what Shangguan Yi said was not a false word. In the evening, Xue Chang basically mastered the eight methods they taught about chasing the wind and chasing the moon, drunken fist and heavy knife.

Due to the rush of time, Xue Chang was unable to prepare a banquet for them himself, and felt deeply sorry, so he specially presented several jars of fine wine during the farewell.

Late at night, Xue Chang spent 100 points of chivalrous points and 100 points of prestige to upgrade the primary martial arts training ground to the intermediate martial arts training ground.

In the next few days, there were obviously more outsiders in Chengdu. You can often see martial arts people carrying weapons walking around the streets, which made Chengdu people feel a little panicked.

All government offices in Chengdu prefecture had to send more city guards and constables to patrol day and night in the urban area. The patrol and military commander also sent people to join in to maintain order and ensure stability.

Xue Chang went to visit Yin Bin, Wang Xuan and Xu Qingping again. Their physical condition was much better than before. They could get out of bed and exercise, but they were still far from being able to fight on the battlefield.

The Military Inspection Office was obviously aware of this situation, so when it issued a military mobilization order to the escort agency, it specially exempted the recruitment of the escorts who were poisoned in Tiejian Villa. Xu Qingping was deeply regretful for this.

After learning that Xue Chang had signed up for the war, Xu Qingping wished Xue Chang "to obtain enough military achievements", while Yin Bin and Wang Xuan were worried about their friends and specially called the escorts from home to meet Xue Chang, hoping that they and Xue Chang would take care of each other during the battle south, and also told Xue Chang "Don't worry about their family, they will take good care of them."

Of course, there is no need to say thanks between brothers. When Xue Chang left, he was given a lot of pills to treat internal and external trauma.

…………………………………………………………………………

In the early morning of the fourth day, two strange-looking guests came to visit. One was named Yu Shangshi, wearing a straw hat, a straw raincoat, holding a fishing rod, and a fish basket tied around his waist; the other was named Mu Yaosheng, wearing a sleeveless hemp shirt, with a messy hair, holding a hoe in his hand, and carrying a medicine basket on his back.

If they hadn't asked for the name of Xue Chang, the concierge might not have let them stay in front of the gate.

After seeing Xue Chang, the two men in their forties had no good expressions. They just said: It was Geng Po who asked them to come.

Then, they said they wanted to see Hu Qiudi.

When Hu Qiudi saw these two people, she excitedly called out "Uncle". Only then did Xue Chang finally confirm that they were the helpers Geng Po called.

After hearing Hu Qiudi say "She is living a good life here", the two of them looked better when they looked at Xue Chang. Obviously, Geng Po also had some advice to them, so they directly told Xue Chang: During the time when Xue Chang left, they would stay in the mansion to ensure the safety of the people in the mansion.

After making this promise, they did not talk to Xue Chang anymore.

Xue Chang didn't care, but called Xue Fu to ask him to arrange the accommodation for the two of them.

After Xue Fu led the two away, Hu Qiudi specifically explained: These two uncles have been accustomed to being alone for a long time and do not like to talk. In fact, they are very good people. I hope Master will not be surprised!

Xue Chang waved his hand and said: He doesn't mind, but he hopes that Hu Qiudi will help Xue Fu take good care of her two uncles' daily lives and do a good job of communication during his absence.

Hu Qiudi agreed without hesitation.

Zhang made a lot of dinner. One of the reasons was that Xue Chang would leave tomorrow and wanted to see him off; the second reason was that two distinguished guests came today and wanted to express their welcome.

Yu and Mu were a little surprised to see a whole family, men, women, and young and old sitting at a large round table for dining, but not speaking.

Under Xue Chang's intentional adjustment, there was Fan Yai and Hu Qiudi assisting him, and the atmosphere of the dinner was still quite lively and cheerful.

Although Yu Shangshi and Mu Yaosheng didn't talk much, they also had a few glasses of wine with Xue Chang.

In the evening, after supervising the disciples after practicing martial arts, Xue Chang solemnly announced to them: After he left, the senior brother Xu Xi was in charge and Hu Qiudi assisted, leading other junior brothers. The junior sister continued to study literature and martial arts every day like now, insisted on working in the food stall in the afternoon, and did good deeds. If anyone is lazy and troubled, they can be punished. After he comes back, he will also assess his apprentices. Whoever has the worst grades and the least progress will be punished by him! And if he performs well, he will teach them new martial arts.

Xu Xi and Hu Qiudi immediately said: They will lead their junior brothers and junior sisters to study, train and work hard until their master comes back safely.

Other apprentices also expressed that they would definitely obey the orders of the eldest and third senior sisters!

Even Fan Yu, who usually jumped away, made a serious promise at this moment, although he was a little dissatisfied with Xue Chang letting Hu Qiudi instead of him as an assistant.

Xue Chang saw it and was happy because among these disciples, the one he was most worried about was Fan Yu, so he specifically said to Fan Ao: "Little Mastiff, if you perform well during this period, I will teach you a better swordsmanship after I come back."

"Really?!" Fan Yu asked excitedly.

"Master, when will I keep my word?" Xue Chang looked around his apprentices and said loudly: "And you are the same. If everyone performs well, I will teach you new martial arts when I come back!"

These words made everyone excited.

"Master, when will you come back?" Han Ying, the youngest, suddenly asked loudly. When he came to Xue's house, he was taken as his apprentice, and was cared for and loved by Xue Chang. This little boy, who was only six years old but had already experienced a lot of hardship, has regarded Xue Chang as his father's existence. Therefore, even if Xue Chang left for a short time, he would be very reluctant to leave.

Xue Chang walked over, hugged the little boy in his arms, and gently patted Han Xue's head, who was also staring at him with a rude gaze. Although neither he nor the original owner had any experience in participating in the war, he thought about it seriously and expressed his guess: "About three months... the master is back."

"Three months, so long! I will miss you every day, Master!" Han Ying hugged Xue Chang tightly. His unconcealed innocent words were also the voices of his senior brothers and sisters.

Xue Chang was in a state of great emotion as he looked at these two eyes, and his mood couldn't help but feel excited. At this moment, he suddenly realized that he had come to this world, perhaps not to learn the most profound martial arts and become an invincible master in the world, but to these children who regard him as a master and a father.

…………………………………………………………………………

Late at night, Xue Chang sat cross-legged on the bed and began to enter the system to practice the Nine Yang Divine Art, changing the practice time of the Nine Yang Divine Art from daytime to night. Although the effect was worse, he had no choice, because from tomorrow onwards, he might not be able to practice the exercises during the day.

In the early morning of the next day, Xue Chang woke up on time as usual, but did not go to the martial arts training ground as usual and led his disciples to practice in the morning. Instead, he carried the package he had already packed, hung a single knife around his waist, pushed open the door, and was stunned: Tuotuo was crawling at the door, with a pair of green eyes staring straight at him.

"Little guy, are you here to say goodbye to me too?" Xue Chang squatted down with a smile, rubbed its soft fur, and saw it suddenly open its big mouth, immediately tapped its wet nose, and whispered: "Don't shout, keep it quiet."

Tuotuo shut his mouth obediently.

"Precautions for the home." Xue Chang patted its head again, reminded him, and then under Tuotuo's astonished gaze, he used the skill of falling leaves and flying birds. After several ups and downs, he jumped onto the roof of the living room.

As soon as he leaned down, another figure leaped onto the roof. It was the Wooden Medicine that just came yesterday.

It seems that the candidate recommended by Mr. Geng is quite reliable... Xue Chang made a gesture to silence him.

Wood Yaosheng immediately understood and waved his hand down.

Only then did Xue Chang realize that under the eaves of the house where he was, Yu Shangshi was holding a fishing rod in his hand and looked up vigilantly.

Xue Chang hurriedly bowed to the other party, but felt more at ease.

After the two left, Xue Chang lay on the roof and watched his disciples come to the martial arts training ground on time. Without his supervision, he began to practice under the leadership of Xu Xi...

Xue Chang peeked quietly for a while, then stood up with satisfaction, lightly tapped the roof tiles with his feet, lifted his true energy, and rushed out of his whole body, and took several alternate steps in the air. Without leveraging force, he flew more than two meters away, crossed the wall, and gently fell outside the courtyard wall. This was exactly what he had just learned to chase the wind and the moon.

The reason why Xue Chang chose to leave quietly was because she was afraid of saying goodbye to her apprentices and her family members to make her feel bad.

He stood in the corner and looked at the system in his mind:

Wulin sect system,

Xiaoyao Sect (Charming Value 2018, Prestige Value 67)

Xue Chang, the leader of the Xiaoyao Sect,

Physical constitution 48, 54, agility 52, fist and kick 60, sword technique 15, knife technique 30, gun stick 27, internal strength 35, light skills 15, hidden weapons? Others?,

Chasing the wind and chasing the moon and becoming unfamiliar.

As the martial arts learned increased, the system automatically subdivided them. After reading the many martial arts he learned on the page, Xue Chang stepped onto the street with few pedestrians with confidence and walked towards the inner city.
