Blue, Red and White Dark Abyss Cauldron

After returning to the military camp, everyone asked about joining the Bicheng army. Chu Xiaomu said that the general had agreed, but it had to be done according to the military regulations.

Zhang Hou asked, "What about you? I heard that your ancestors were very good brothers with the general. The general should take care of you, right?"

Chu Xiaomu neither confirmed nor denied it, and said: "I have already told the general to go to Nanding Army."

Yingdan said: "The Nanding Army is near the Beast Mountain south of Bicheng. I heard that it is the most troubled place. Even the soldiers of Bicheng are not willing to go there on their own initiative."

Yu Aqi said: "Xiao Mu must want to go there to see more and learn more skills."

Zhang Hou said: "Why don't we all go to Nanding Army so that we can all take care of each other."

Lin Zhen said, "Didn't Xiaomu just say that we have to follow the military rules? How can we go wherever we want?"

Zhang Hou said, "Why don't you go talk to the general and ask him for help. I think the general will definitely agree."

Chu Xiaomu hesitated to answer. Unless it was an extremely urgent matter, he really didn't want to ask for help.

Yang Dou suddenly asked: "Xiao Mu, don't you want revenge?"

Chu Xiaomu said: "Of course I want revenge, but I have to learn the skills first, otherwise I won't be able to kill those bad guys."

Yang Dou said: "That's good, I thought you forgot."

Zhang Hou instigated Hai Wuqing again, saying that although he was a waterman, he had no money to go home now, so he might as well join the army with them and it would not be too late to go home after saving enough money.

Hai Wuqing stammered, "I don't know if they would want me given how I look."

Zhang Hou said, "You are ugly, but they are not marrying a wife, so why would they be willing to accept you?"

Yu Aqi said indignantly, "As if you are very handsome, I think you are much uglier than Brother Hai Wuqing."

Zhang Hou looked indifferent and said, "Of course I'm not as good-looking as you, brother Aqi. But I have one advantage, which is that I'm sweet-talking. Most of the women I know like me."

Lin Zhen made a "Pah" sound and cursed, "You are so shameless!" Zhang Hou laughed.

Everyone thought about the upcoming military life; some were excited, some were worried, and some didn't care. They stayed up all night and chatted until the next morning.

At noon, Feng Tan returned to the Zhongjing Army camp. Chu Xiaomu showed him the letter from General Bi Ye to Yang Dou.

After Feng Tan saw it, he found out that it was Bi Ye who asked him to properly settle Chu Xiaomu, Yang Dou and thirteen others, and explained that Chu Xiaomu was willing to go to Nanding Army and Yang Dou wanted to return to Baihua Island.

Feng Tan thought that evil spirits were causing trouble from time to time, and the army just happened to need to expand its army. It would be best if these young people were willing to take the initiative to join the army.

Chu Xiaomu expressed his desire to be together with others, and Feng Tan said, "As long as it does not violate the rules of Bicheng, all this is easy to discuss."

He took the roster, thought for a while and then made arrangements. He assigned Chu Xiaomu, Lin Zhen, Yingdan, Zhang Hou, Ling Weidou, Su Mishun, Wu Sheng, Wangang, Zhou Weide and Zhou Weiyi, a total of ten people, to the Nanding Army, Yu Aqi to the Dongzhong Army, Hai Wuqing to the Xiyi Army, and Yang Dou was not assigned and remained in the Zhongjing Army.

Chu Xiaomu asked why Yu Aqi and Hai Wuqing were assigned separately. Feng Tan said that Yu Aqi was from Anfeng City, and Bicheng had a rule that people from Anfeng City could not go to Nanding Army. He didn't know why. Hai Wuqing was from the Water Country, and there were many rivers and lakes near Xiyi Army, which was more suitable for him.

Chu Xiaomu had no choice but to go back to the tent and tell everyone. Except for Yu Aqi and Hai Wuqing who were unhappy, everyone else was happy.

Hai Wuqing even shed tears and said that he didn't want to be separated from everyone. Everyone hurriedly tried to persuade him, saying that General Feng was considerate and that you are familiar with water and will probably do great things if you go to the Western Yi Army. Only then did Hai Wuqing gradually let go of his worries.

Yu Aqi was only depressed for a while, but soon he thought it through and said that Bicheng had its own rules, which could not be broken because of one person. Besides, there were messenger eagles in the military camp, so he could use the eagles to send messages when he missed everyone.

Lin Zhen said: "The messenger eagle is used to transmit urgent military affairs. If you use it to send a few useless words, I'm afraid you will be beaten with dozens of military sticks."

Yu Aqi said: "It would be great if I also had a pair of wings. When I miss you, I can write a letter and deliver it to Nanding Army in person, and then fly back."

Hai Wuqing said with bulging eyes: "You have already arrived at Nanding Army, why are you still writing a letter?" Everyone laughed when they heard him, a Shui countryman, speaking nonsense with the accent of Cangmu country.

Chu Xiaomu asked Yang Dou if he wanted to go to Nanding Army together, saying that it would be better for everyone to be together.

Yang Dou shook his head and said that he would stay in Zhongjing Army and find a way to return to Baihua Island.

Chu Xiaomu thought that this was a good idea. With the general protecting him, he could feel at ease. Maybe the general could even cure his heart disease, so he stopped forcing him.

The family of Zhou Bo, the commander of the Nanding Army, did not live with him in the barracks, but had another residence in the urban area of ​​Bicheng. Zhou Bo received the order from the general to return to the city to discuss matters the day before yesterday, and was still in Bicheng at this time. Feng Tan ordered someone to take Chu Xiaomu to visit him and gave him the letter written by General Biye.

Chu Xiaomu originally thought that the residence of the central army must be much better than that of ordinary people. But when he went there to take a look, he found that although it was not a common tent used by ordinary people, it was just made of bricks and stones that were relatively rare in Bicheng, with gray walls, earthen tiles, wooden doors and windows, and was quite inconspicuous.

An attendant invited the two into the main gate and went to inform Zhou Bo. After a long while, Zhou Bo finally came out to meet them. He looked grim and did not show any joy of meeting guests.

Chu Xiaomu didn't take it seriously and respectfully handed him the handwritten letter from General Bi Ye.

Zhou Bo silently opened the letter and read it slowly. Seeing that Bi Ye asked him to take good care of Chu Xiaomu and others in the letter, his face became even uglier. He thought that Humu Pass was the most dangerous pass in Cangmu Country. Wouldn't it cause trouble for me if these young boys went there? Moreover, every matter there was related to the safety of the entire Bicheng, and Humu Pass was the key among the keys. How could he take care of someone out of personal favor?

However, he had to obey the general's order, so he frowned and said, "Okay, I'll let you know when we set out in a few days." Then he sent the two men away.

The soldier who brought Chu Xiaomu here was sent out of Zhou Bo's mansion before he could even sit down. He was very unhappy. On the way back to Zhong Jingjun's military camp, he said that the most unkind person in Bicheng was Zhou Zhongjun. Sometimes he even didn't give face to the general. He was simply a blockhead and an old jerk.

Chu Xiaomu smiled and suddenly thought of the tall and thin Xuanying who fought side by side with him more than a month ago. He thought that Zhou Zhongjun and he had similar personalities. If he were there, Zhou Zhongjun might like him.

I don't know where he is now, what his condition is, and whether we can meet again. Sigh...
