After hearing that the war was coming, I was slightly startled, and then became interested.
It’s rare to experience the ancient times in person. Although it’s just a memory, it is also what really happened. The Holy Tower wouldn’t create such a realistic illusion to fool me, right?
In this case, everything I see and hear now is a huge treasure, so I listen very carefully at the moment, wishing to remember every word in my heart.
"..."
Hearing this, the atmosphere was a little heavy for a moment, and everyone remained silent. The smell of gunpowder before the war was like a mountain weighing on everyone's shoulders, making people breathless.
People die in wars. The twenty-odd people here are more or less related to each other. Anyone who dies is a blow to others, so I can understand their feelings.
"boom!"
But just when I was thinking this, Ying Xu punched the stone table directly, and then shouted: "Village Chief, the demon is attacking. In order to protect our homeland, as children of the hot summer, we have to fight and we dare to fight.
Don’t be afraid of fighting!”
"But...this is a matter for us adults after all, but Ying Ji is still a child, how can we let him go to the battlefield?" Ying Xu's face was a bit gloomy. In his eyes, I was not only his nephew, but also a child.
His son-in-law is also a rising star with a promising future.
How could he bear to let a child like me, who has just turned eighteen, go to the battlefield?
"Yes, Ying Ji just had his completion ceremony last month, and he has just turned eighteen. In terms of age, he is actually no different from a child."
"I think it's better to let him guard the village. With him protecting the village, we can fight with peace of mind on the front line!"
"Who says otherwise? I don't know what the higher-ups think. Originally, an adult is only considered to be twenty years old, but the age is constantly being lowered. Isn't it possible that in the future, children of what age will be recruited?"
Seeing that everyone was talking and disapproving of my participation in the war, Ying first stretched out his palm to signal everyone to be quiet, and then smiled bitterly and said: "Hey, you guys are really a bunch of impatient people, but you really don't understand me.
What are your thoughts?"
"Village chief, what do you mean?" Ying Xu's eyes lit up and he asked.
"Ying Ji, don't go to the war. Just stay and guard the village. If you ask the superiors, they will say that they are not yet eighteen. They will not care about this. A less Ying Ji is not a lot, and an extra Ying Ji is not a lot.
!" Ying Xian said in a deep voice.
Hearing this, everyone's eyes lit up, especially Ying Xu, who rubbed his palms together and said happily: "This is excellent, excellent..."
"Ying Ji!" Ying Xian looked at me, with a touch of kindness in his eyes, and said, "Your mission is to protect the village and all the villagers in the village. This is your responsibility. Do you understand?"
I was about to answer that I understand, but when the words came to my lips, I suddenly changed my words and said, "I don't!"
"I don't want to stay and be a coward. I'm an adult now, and I should have a share in the mission of going to the battlefield." I patted my chest and solemnly said: "As a man in the hot summer, I also want to defend my homeland and dedicate myself to it."
Power!"
These words were so impassioned that everyone was excited and praised Ying Ji as a good man. Only Ying Xu had a hint of bitterness and helplessness on his lips.
"???" But my mind is full of questions.
Why are we going to the battlefield?
Yingxian and the others are trying to prevent me from facing the war, but why am I clamoring to go there? Could it be that the Holy Tower deliberately tricked me, or is this the original owner's wish?
I personally prefer the latter, because being in the body of the original owner, I can actually feel his emotions and know that he really wants to contribute. And with the ancient culture of justice and martial arts, I am so
Once you stand up, the results are basically set.
I definitely want to join the war and not run away!
Sure enough, after I took the initiative to participate in the war, the matter was settled, because in the eyes of everyone, I was a good man who had the courage to take on responsibilities. Instead of pointing their fingers at me and calling me a fool, they instead criticized my
He was highly praised for his bravery.
I could only smile in response to this, but in fact, I had already convinced myself that this original owner was really deceiving people. It seemed that a fierce battle was inevitable, but I just didn’t know when this battle would break out.
It's better to be a little later, otherwise I feel that it will be difficult to get through these three days. After all, I only look like a three-star on the outside, but in fact I am only a peak mid-two-star Naibi.
Having said that, this is not reality after all. If a war really breaks out, then I really don’t know what form the enemy will appear in. After all, this is not reality.
I think it may be a soul attack. This possibility is very high, and it is consistent with the test of the ninth level.
The village chief Ying Xian told us a lot about the war in the yard. I listened with great interest and learned a lot of great information. For example, in this small village of less than 10,000 people, there are three three-star strong men.
Thirteen is equivalent to one in three hundred people.
Don't look at the ratio of only 0.3%, but this is already a very terrifying ratio. If placed in today's world, a population of 8 billion can produce at least 20 million Samsung experts.
It's really comparable to Chinese cabbage.
In addition, I also learned that the battlefield with demons has been going on for more than a hundred years, but only in recent years have demons become extremely rampant, so that humans and demons have fought several battles, each time
It ended with mankind's victory, but mankind also paid a heavy price.
Today's human world is not as complicated as that of later generations. The East and the West have long been combined. All mankind is collectively called the "Yanxia Tribe", or Yanxia for short. There are about 30 to 40 million people. The number is much more than I imagined. I have always
At first I thought there were only a few hundred thousand humans in this era.
This information is extremely valuable to me, so I listened to it in great detail and kept it all in mind.
After the sun went down, the meeting finally ended and everyone dispersed, but Ying Xu stopped me.
"Xiaoji, you...really want to join the war?" Ying Xu said with a complicated expression.
"Yes, I have to go, not only to defend my homeland, but also to avenge my parents and people!" There was a blazing fire in my eyes, which was anger and resentment.
Hearing this, Ying Xu was silent for a while, then patted me on the shoulder and said, "Good boy, I didn't disgrace your father!"
"Go and get some rest early, we're getting married the day after tomorrow!"
Under the control of my original body, I waved to Ying Xu with a playful smile, and then left the village chief's yard, leaving Ying Xu alone outside the yard watching me silently.
"Original owner, original owner, Lao Xu is doing this for your own good, but you still don't appreciate it. I really admire you..." I couldn't help complaining in my heart.
The attitude that Ying Xu expressed earlier was that he obviously did not want me to participate in the war, and he tried to persuade me several times, explicitly or implicitly, but the effect was not obvious. In the end, Ying Xu could only choose to respect my opinion.
Of course, I am not qualified to comment on Ying Ji, the original owner. It is natural for him to want to avenge his parents. It is normal for him to not think about the love between his children. If it were me, I would probably make the same choice as Ying Ji.
Although I really want to take this opportunity to wander around the village to see if I can ask for any more useful information, but unfortunately, the control of my body at this moment is not mine at all, but the original owner.
Under the control of the original owner, I could only silently watch the original owner walk back to his home from the perspective of a bystander.
However, the moment the original owner arrived at the door of his house, the scene around me seemed to be fast forwarding and began to change rapidly. Not long after, a burst of noise came through.
When I came back to my senses and took a closer look, I saw a huge crowd of people playing gongs and drums around me. It was estimated that the entire village had gathered together, sitting around the entrance of the village as if they were having a banquet.
Looking at the sun reappearing in the sky, I couldn't help but be slightly surprised.
