Chapter 481 Recruiting New Soldiers
Wu Qi, Su Qin, and Yan Bugui were all stunned when they heard the harsh sound, which was obviously made of bamboo. They had never encountered anything like this before. Although the sound of the bangs was harsh, it did not contain the slightest murderous intent. Instead, it smelled of laziness. None of the three of them knew what it meant.
Suddenly, someone outside the yard shouted: "Brother Hu, are you there? Someone from the government is here. Come and gather at the village head."
Wu Qi looked at Su Qin, who waved his hands repeatedly: "I'm not going. I'm a homeless old man that Hu Bugui's brother picked up in the wild. Well, he's seriously ill and hasn't recovered yet. How can he have time to see their officials?" Shaking his head, Su Qin twisted his mouth and said with lingering fear: "This Pangu Continent, the Taixie Sect, has dealt with people from their government several times, and many times they were chopped off with shining swords. I don't want to see them again!" Shaking his head, don't Qi stood up and curiously followed Yan Bugui out. His fake baby was shattered by the Taiyi Golden Talisman. As long as he restrained his aura at this moment, no one could tell that he was a cultivator. At most, they would think that he was an unlucky seriously injured patient. Yan Bugui was even more straightforward. His beast soul was released, and all his internal strength was destroyed. Only a handful of strength remained, and there was no need to worry about anything else.
The two hurriedly walked to the entrance of the village. Hundreds of villagers had gathered under a large locust tree at the entrance of the village. An officer wearing bronze armor, followed by more than a dozen soldiers, was standing with an officer wearing a cyan hat and a A low-level official in blue cloth stood on a big rock and looked down at the villagers. Beside the big rock, an official in green clothes and a small hat was beating a bamboo clapper feebly. The "bang bang" sound hurt people's ears.
After a while, when no one came out of the village, the officer glanced at the low-level official.
The green-clothed official smiled and bowed to the officer, puffed out his chest, and shouted to the villagers below in a long voice: "Folks, good news! Zhongzhou Si Xing Dian wants to recruit more soldiers. This time, our village has been allocated ten Quota for soldiers!" The villagers were in a commotion, and the eyes of some young people suddenly lit up.
The Qingyi official smiled and said: "Everyone knows that the criminal army of Si Xing Dian is a good job. Their salary is much better than that of the soldiers of Si Jun Dian, and the food and drink expenses are first-class! These ten soldiers, Each person is given a large silver coin to pay for their settlement, and there are only ten places!" Yan Bugui glanced at Wu Qi quickly and asked in a low voice: "What kind of thing is the recruitment of soldiers in Si Xing Palace?" Wu Qi pointed out. He nodded, indicating that Yan Bugui had guessed the cause of the matter. Just now, when Wu Qi was telling Su Qin about his experiences these days, he mentioned the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance and the rewards offered by the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance for killing several criminal armies sent by Zhongzhou Si Xing Palace. Master Sanhuo alone killed nearly two thousand criminal troops. Adding in the soldiers lost by several other teams, Zhongzhou Si Xingdian needed to replenish more than ten thousand troops this time. If each village has a quota of ten soldiers, that means that this time soldiers are being recruited from more than a thousand villages at the same time.
Seeing the commotion in the crowd, the Tsing Yi official smiled again: "Everyone must also know that joining the Criminal Army is a good thing for reaching the sky in one step. You can practice the secret body-building techniques taught in the army. If you are successful in your cultivation, you can strengthen your body." Of course, it goes without saying that I need to keep fit. After I retire from the army and return to the village, tsk tsk, that village will be great.
If the Divine Seal Throne makes meritorious service and is promoted to a general, one of them may be destined to become a marquis in the future, and he will have the status of a marquis for generations to come! "The Qingyi official has a clever tongue and talks about the benefits of joining the criminal army.
The crowd suddenly separated, and dozens of young people from the village rushed out at the same time. They shouted loudly: "Sir, we are willing to join the criminal army!"
Wu Qi frowned slightly, and Su Qin's voice came from his and Yan Bugui's ears at the same time: "Bugui, go! Join the criminal army!" Yan Bugui immediately stretched out his arms and separated the villagers in front of him. , he shouted loudly: "Two adults, Hu Bugui, a humble citizen, is also willing to join the criminal army!" The villain's family is ruined and his people are dead. He has nothing else but a handful of strength and a willingness to fight for a bright future! "The officer nodded with satisfaction. His sharp eyes swept over Yan Bugui and the young people. He pointed at Yan Bugui, who was the most muscular and with clearly visible muscles, and said with a smile: "This man, Hu. No return, right? Come, find a stone and lift it! "
Yan Bugui tied the hemp rope around his waist and strode to a large stone that was six feet square and weighed several thousand kilograms under the big locust tree. He bent down, grasped the edges of the stone tightly with both hands, and roared loudly, his face turning purple from the pain. There was a "gurgling" sound from the joints in his body.
There was a chaotic sound, the ground shook slightly, and the huge stone was lifted up by Yan Bugui. He slowly straightened his arms and raised the stone high above his head.
The villagers on the side were silent, and then hundreds of villagers praised in unison: "Okay!" Wu Qi looked at the villagers with a smile, several of them were strong and beautiful, Taobao Women's Clothing Tmall Taobao Mall Taobao Women's Winter Clothing Jacket m, The big girl was as hot as a wild rose in the field, and her gaze fixed on Yan Bugui's body was like a flame. Unexpectedly, one of the girls suddenly shouted, "Brother Hu, good job. "Wow, you have so much strength."
Yan Bugui smiled "hehe", walked around holding the stone, and then threw the stone heavily on the ground. There was a loud "bang" sound, and the boulder created a large pit about a foot deep on the ground, and splashed mud sprayed out more than ten feet away. The officer repeatedly raised his palms and smiled and said: "Okay, okay, Hu Bugui, right? Okay, this guy is born with supernatural power, and your future will be bright! It's wonderful, I didn't expect to find a hero like you today."
No need to say anything more, the officer made a decision on the spot, Yan Bugui was a new recruit of the Criminal Army.
On the spot, he was rewarded with a fist-sized silver chain, which was used to pay for Yan Bugui's settlement.
A wooden sign made of hardwood was given to Yan Bugui, which was proof of Yan Bugui's identity as a recruit. The officer told Yan Bugui frankly that three days later he took the wooden sign to the neighboring large village Wanhu Village. , gathered together with the recruits from other villages, and rushed to the Sixing Hall of Zhongning City to report.
In other words, Yan Bugui still has three days to deal with his personal affairs. In fact, he has nothing to deal with in this village.
In front of so many villagers, Yan Bugui handed over the settlement fee to the village chief and asked him to help him take care of his house and fields while he was in the army. Yan Bugui had worked hard to build the house these days, and he had worked hard to cultivate the fields himself. He was a wandering refugee whose village had been destroyed, and he had no relatives at home. This arrangement was reasonable.
The village chief readily agreed to Yan Bugui's request. Wasn't it just to help clean the house and prevent the fields from becoming vacant? With this piece of money in hand, what can't be done? The manpower in the village is not valuable, and this piece of silver is enough for the villagers to help Yan Bugui take care of these houses and the fields for ten years.
Laughter and cheers kept coming from the village head. The remaining dozens of young people competed with each other, competing on some skills such as bow and arrow. It took less than half an hour to finally select the remaining nine recruits. After paying the settlement fee and the wooden sign, the officer and the green-clothed official, with a dozen of their subordinates, dismounted their mounts and hurried down the road to the village.
Suddenly there were ten more candidates for recruits in the village. The villagers were all dancing for joy, except for the young people who failed to be selected and were a little unhappy.
Wu Qi and Yan Bugui mingled among the crowd, listening to the villagers' excited discussions.
The salary of the criminal army is extremely high. The salary and grain income of each soldier in the criminal army for a year is almost equal to the total income of twenty families for a year's hard work. Except for Yan Bugui, the families of the other nine selected young people will be able to live a good life immediately.
The soldiers of the Criminal Army will all practice the secret body-building method taught by the human army, and they will all have strength far beyond that of ordinary people. When these young men return to the village from the army, protected by these powerful soldiers, the village will be able to live a peaceful life for decades. No matter it is wild beasts or natural disasters, it will not be a problem in front of these young people with human strength.
Of course, if any of them from the Divine Seal Throne could be promoted to officers, or even be granted the title of Marquis as the Tsing Yi official said, the benefits they would bring to the village would be even greater. Maybe this small village, where most of the villagers are related by relatives, can develop into a small town like Wanhu Village with tens of thousands of people living together through the luck of a lucky person.
When the pale old village chief began to excitedly recall his grandfather's generation, it was also the village's turn to recruit new soldiers. That time, I don’t know where Zhongzhou sent troops. The small village provided fifty new soldiers at once. Although only three wounded soldiers with broken arms and legs returned to their hometown in the end, it was relying on the strength of those three remnant soldiers that the small village that originally had only about fifty households developed into what it is today, with a total of more than three hundred households. A village of families.
The old village chief enthusiastically concluded that it was the blessing of the ancestors' spirits that allowed the village to catch up with such a good opportunity.
Wu Qi and Yan Bugui didn't say anything.
Wu Qi smiled faintly and pulled Yan Bugui towards the hut at the end of the road, getting further and further away from the excited villagers. These villagers, they only saw the benefits brought by joining the criminal army, how could they understand the sorrow of the undead who died under the flames and thunder of Lord Three Fires.
Even Wu Qi himself killed 20,000 soldiers led by Feng Qingyu at Qingxu Xiangguan.
Were the relatives of those soldiers as excited as the villagers in this village when they sent them off to join the army?
Wu Qi looked up at the sky without saying a word. He began to perfect the plan he had just come up with, how to use He'an City to help Su Qin and Yan Bugui. Since they met Su Qin and Yan Bugui here, Lao Ai had to make some plans there.
Back at the hut, Su Qin almost lost his breath due to Yan Bugui's words.
"Master Prime Minister, you asked me to join the army, can you support yourself in Pangu Continent?
