On the last day of Gaoyangyue, the air already had the smell of summer. On the streets of Xuemancheng, whether it was the merchants and pawns who were wandering around, they had already put on cool summer outfits. Even the city guards patrolling around the city removed their shirts from their armor.

You should know that this shirt under the armor is different from the shirt we wear now, but a very thick cotton coat. Its purpose is to increase the buffer against damage and strengthen the soldiers' defense ability. The second is to have a very real warmth effect.

In summer, this kind of shirt becomes very embarrassing. If you wear a shirt, it will indeed increase the soldiers' ability to survive on the battlefield, but on the other hand, it will increase the soldiers' death rate in disguise.

The former is easy to explain, as for the latter... if you wear cotton coats and do high-intensity exercise in summer, the chance of heatstroke is nearly 100%. If you have heatstroke on the battlefield, even if you are not killed by the enemy, you will be trampled to death by your comrades who are following you!

However, as the city guard who only needs to deal with thieves every day, there is no difference between that little defensive ability. If you are in the city, do you think you have lived too long?

However, after several consecutive days of heating up, a large area of ​​dark clouds gathered happily on the northern skyline. The cool breeze blowing from the north shocked everyone's spirits and walked out of the room to cool off. Even the market tonight seemed much crowded.

At the city gate, two city guards, one old and one young, were hiding in the shadow of the city gate hole, were lazy and cool.

The old city guards held a piece of grass stem in their mouths, casually checking every process, and chatted with the younger generations around them from time to time. As they chatted, they talked about some strange things that had happened recently: "Hey, boy, did the group of knights who were in the process last evening saw it?"

"Of course, uncle, I'm not blind, how could I not even see so many people? Uncle, that female knight who takes the lead is so beautiful!"

The young city guards curled their lips helplessly, checked the carriage's goods, and put them in the city. When they were about to check the next truck, they were slapped on the back of the head.

"I'm not blind! Last year...ah, that's when anyone came back, didn't I ask you to see the maps of those big names in Xueman?!"

The veteran became more and more angry as he spoke, and slapped Xiaobing again. Xiaobing held his mouth and quibbled: "Uncle, you can't even remember it, you still said to me!"

"I..." The veteran opened his mouth, but didn't know how to explain it. That incident should have been a scene that he remembered very deeply, but somehow, he still couldn't remember the appearance of the big man recently. Even the name of the big man was forgotten. Whenever the scene at that time sounded, the image of the big man would be obscured by a fog and could not remember at all.

The veteran also went home to search for the map of Xueman's big figure, but strangely, in his memory, the page belonging to the big figure also turned into a blank space, while the front and the back pages were as usual, still portraits of the other two big figures.

"It's strange and strange."

The veteran muttered and stopped engaging in this topic. When he was about to check the next pedestrian, he suddenly heard a neat sound of footsteps.

Looking up, there were a group of soldiers wearing steel armor in an orderly line, quickly passing by the line-up of civilians and rushing towards the city gate.

Elite!

A word flashed through the veteran's heart, and even the young soldiers around him rushed to the alarm bell nervously.

A young soldier may not be able to judge his strength from the spirit of a soldier, but he also has his own cleverness. He just wants the soldiers who are wearing a complete set of steel armor, lined up in an orderly manner, and there is no trace of sweat on his head. They are definitely not something that they are the city guards that can compete with, at least they are elite. And depending on their size, it is possible to be a group of ace troops!

The soldier rushed to the front of the alarm bell with a few arrows. He picked up the copper hammer on one side when he was about to sound the alarm bell, and when he felt a pain in the back of his head, he lightened his hand, but when his uncle snatched the copper hammer from his hand, he slapped himself.

"Uncle..."

Looking at his uncle's expression, the young soldier immediately understood. Just like the time last year, he made a mistake again, and he almost got into trouble again!

"Let you see the map! Let you recognize the emblem! You just don't see it! You just don't recognize it! Sooner or later, you will be sent to the execution ground for offending a big man!"

The veteran scolded Xiaobing a few words with a grudge, then changed into a flattering smile and turned to the group of soldiers: "I'm really sorry, this is my nephew, I don't have much vision, so I'd like to take care of you."

"Oh, your nephew~"

Accompanied by sarcastic emphasis, a soldier with a captain with a wolf head painted on his chest walked out, took off his helmet, revealing a young face, as if he was a few years younger than the young soldier before.

"This military master..."

The veteran's lips were trembling. Although he was not strong, his eyesight was not enough. In this entire team, only this person with a wolf head painted on his chest must be the head of the army. Now this big man actually spoke, and he still said this tone, himself...

But before the veteran could justify his explanation, the soldier waved his hand and said with a smile: "I remember, I have a law for the Xuemanling, right?"

"Even the seat..." The veteran's face turned blue. He didn't know whether there was any such seat in Xueman's law, but what he knew was that if the big man in front of him wanted to mess with him, he would definitely not be able to survive for three days!

The face changed a few times, and the veteran actually knelt down in front of the soldier with a pounce: "Please give your help and spare our uncle and nephew's life!"

This kneeling made the warrior confused, but after feeling the murderous look from behind, he woke up with a tremor and rushed up to hold the veteran's shoulder: "Hey hey! Get up quickly! I'm just kidding!"

However, after this persuasion, the old man cried even more fiercely. If the soldier hadn't supported his shoulder with both hands, the veteran would have kowtowed to the soldier and begged to let him go.

In the minds of veterans, now it is a public place, these big men naturally need to pay attention to the public influence. Their current performance must be a hypocrisy that has to be shown. Once the storm of this incident dissipates, then my uncle and nephew will...

Looking at the veteran who looked overly frightened, he stood behind the soldiers and was regarded as a scout by the veteran but had to stand up and forcibly helped the veteran up, showing a bitter smile:
Chapter completed!
