The arena in front of the wooden platform is now filled with dust, and mixed with it are the sounds of people practicing martial arts shouting. Because the rest are considered strong, every soldier performing martial arts is working very hard.
lj1 is now standing at the back obediently. Although his eyes are on the martial arts performers, he is paying attention to the military commanders who are the judges, hoping to judge a qualified standard through the expressions on the military commanders' faces.
The hard work paid off. After careful observation for a while, Liu Juan immediately saw the clue. It turned out that the moves were good-looking but not very powerful. The Kung Fu that won the favor of the judges the best, the higher the score. Think about it.
I think Liu Juan finally understood the reason: it turns out that among the three parties of the inner guard, the imperial guard, and the army, the army has the lowest status. At the same time, every year the inner guard and the imperial guard recruit more outstanding soldiers away, so even though the army does not
There was nothing he could do about it, so in order to retain outstanding soldiers, he naturally had an extra thought when giving scores.
After thinking about the reason, Liu Juan couldn't help but feel happy, and thought to himself: Who said that these generals have well-developed limbs and simple minds, but they are not as smart as foxes.
At the same time, he had a vague plan in his mind.
Not long after, it was Liu Juan's turn. After going up and saluting, he picked up a spear and practiced his own style. It looked very gorgeous and the movements were very graceful, but it had no power or practical value.
The spear technique comes.
The judge of Liu Juan's group happened to be Ruowen, who "saved" Liu Juan's life in the small town. Now Liu Juan knew that he was Ruowu's brother, and he also recognized Liu Juan when Liu Juan was practicing.
, thinking that his soldiers had wounded him before, and that this man's marksmanship was really "wonderful", he gave Liu Juan a chance to pass without hesitation.
Liu Juan didn't feel any surprise that he had passed. Anyway, he was entering the inner guard. Even if he was the last one, it didn't matter.
As long as he can enter the inner guard, he will have a chance to see the emperor, but his demon essence cannot be used now, so he can only wait for Huo Hu and the others to come.
Just as Ruoyu said, forty people were actually recruited, but in fact the finalists were fifty. The father-in-law of Yulin Military Factory did not forget to tease Liu Juan when he was selecting. Liu Juan was so angry that he cursed in his heart: This dead eunuch is alive.
My son has no eyes!
However, he also forgot one thing, that is, eunuchs basically do not give birth to sons.
So, Liu Juan entered the inner guard carelessly.
Regardless of whether Liu Juan is willing or unwilling, and no matter what he thinks in his heart, he is also on the list for the selection of the inner guards. After the father-in-law has selected ten people to enter the Yulin Military Factory, the remaining people will naturally be
Entered Jinyiwei.
Liu Juan entered the inner guard as just a small soldier, and Wushun did not come into contact with him. After all, Unscrupulous's status as an inner guard was very important. If he came into contact with a small soldier like Liu Juan, it would definitely attract others' attention. After all, there are also people in the inner guard.
They are not monolithic, and there are spies from the Yulin Military Factory inside. According to the unscrupulous idea, Liu Juan was promoted secretly, but it was just to give Liu Juan more opportunities, and it would not attract the attention of others.
Although there was hesitation and hesitation in Liu Juan's heart, he also knew the situation in front of him. There was only one way before him, and that was to become an inner guard. And the most important purpose now was to complete the mission and join the inner guard.
, that is probably the best way at the moment. Although the Inner Guards cannot be as tyrannical as the Royal Forest Army, they have to admit that life is indeed more nourishing if they join the Inner Guards.
Liu Juan also knew about the bloody side of the Royal Guards and Internal Guards, but in his previous life, he slept with the God of Death almost every day. He had never seen anything bloodier than this. His spirit was already as tough as beef tendon.
Same.
After several days of trekking, Liu Juan finally put on this eagle uniform, and he became a real internal guard. However, he is just a soldier now. Among the many internal guards, he is also
Doesn't seem very conspicuous.
However, he can enter Kyoto and the palace, but it is still difficult for him to see the emperor.
Liu Juan's earliest mission was to patrol. In addition to the big man, there was also a soldier who had joined the inner guard for many years. After all, they were very unfamiliar with the current situation and had to be led by someone, and there were some rules.
, and also ask these internal guards to tell them.
But this big man's luck was really not very good. He was originally a powerful character, but he had no choice but to meet Liu Juan. He fought for a long time without knocking down any of the cooks, so he was considered a loser and was killed by Ruowen.
Sent to the inner guard.
Liu Juan is now twenty-five years old. According to the rules of the Aolai Kingdom, his zodiac sign is toad. However, after he became a street person, Liu Juan discovered that he should not be a toad at all, but a crab like Wushun.
As soon as the three of them walked towards the street, they were acting in a domineering manner. No one would come within three feet of them. Even the crying child stopped crying immediately when he saw the three coming.
One hand was holding the handle of the knife, and the other hand was hanging down naturally. Then Liu Juan, who was walking struttingly on the street, looked at the people around him looking at him with some horror. He couldn't help but shook his head slightly: Once upon a time, he was trying to protect himself.
He fought to protect his lover, but now, according to his original words, he is simply a scum and a scumbag.
Such a big change reminded Liu Juan of those underground party members who joined the enemy army to spy on intelligence during the Anti-Japanese War. He couldn't help but sigh to himself: That's it, that's all, I will learn to be a puppet soldier now!
Thinking this in his heart, Liu Juan immediately returned to his original appearance. He no longer looked timid or afraid of things, but his face was gloomy and terrifying. In this way, others would be frightened just by looking at him.
point.
The one who walked in front of them, Ming Er Mian, had been a guard for seven or eight years. Since he had no connections, his work was sloppy, so he became a street patrolman for five or six years, and his only achievement was to guard against the enemy.
He knows this street very well, and now he has finally divided it into two and is reluctantly given to him, so now he said seriously: "Although this street is not very good in terms of oil and water, you will not starve to death. There is a teahouse in front of it.
The snacks there are pretty good, so we went up to sit there after a while. After we had enough rest, we almost had lunch. Then we went to the restaurant in front, took a walk around in the afternoon and came back. In the evening, if we had money, we could also go to the brothel in front to have a good time.
Happy, but there is a place where the great disciple of the Imperial Master can be found. You can’t mess around. You have to bring money with you if you go. That girl there, that waist...!"
The saliva in his ears almost dropped, and he didn't notice at all that the recruit behind him, who had looked timid in the morning, suddenly turned into a figure that made people look at him.
Listening to the chatter in front of him, Liu Juan didn't take it seriously. He just smiled in his heart and looked at the specific terrain on the road. This was also his instinct. Only by being familiar with the environment could he make decisions based on the environment.
Their own favorable judgment is the most basic requirement for them. Just like when he was attacked on the way to escort Unscrupulous, it was also because Liu Juan had already looked at the terrain and knew where it was suitable for an ambush, and was able to defeat the superiors with just a few dozen people.
Hundreds of people.
At the same time, Liu Juan also believed in one thing: the unscrupulous tried every possible means and tried his best to get himself into the inner guard. It is absolutely impossible for him to be like the man in front of him, patrolling the streets for six years without being reused. In the near future, he will definitely
He will give himself a chance, and this patrol is only temporary. After all, if a newcomer is entrusted with an important task just after entering the inner guard, everyone will be suspicious.
And Liu Juan also knows that if he really climbs up, he may face more conflicts and the heavier the responsibility. Maybe there may be a conflict on this street that day. If he has the geographical advantage, he will win.
The opportunities are much greater.
Liu Juan was thinking about it when he suddenly heard a long sigh in front of him, and then said: "We're here, let's go in and have a rest!" Hearing his voice made him feel like he had walked a long way.
Liu Juan looked up and saw a two-story wooden building in front of him. There was a flagpole erected in front of the wooden building. There was a big fanzi floating on the flagpole, with the big Chinese character "tea" written on it.
"Don't look at it, you will have to come here hundreds of times a year from now on, whenever you want to look at it!"
He whispered in front of him, and then walked through the door first. The big man followed behind.
Liu Juan was stunned, shook his head slightly, and followed him in.
As soon as he stepped through the door, a middle-aged man came up to him like a shopkeeper. He bowed his head and said: "Master Er, why did you come here at this time today? The pot I brewed for you is waiting for you in the mud well before the rain.
Looking after you!"
After finishing speaking, when he saw Liu Juan and others, he immediately smiled and said, "Oh, who are these two gentlemen? They look very cool!"
Without turning his head, he said calmly: "These two brothers are here for the first time today. Shopkeeper, you have to greet them well."
"That's it, that's it!"
The shopkeeper immediately smiled, then bent down and said: "Please come upstairs, Xiaohong will be on stage soon!"
He felt happy and said: "Xiaohong? Not bad, it seems that today is the time for me!"
After that, he took the lead and walked upstairs.
At this time, Liu Juan also began to look at the teahouse in front of him. The teahouse was divided into two parts, with a wooden structure and a half-meter-high stage at the front. A girl was singing this song on it. There were some tables and chairs under the stage.
There are already a lot of people sitting there, and they are looking at snacks such as pastries and melon seeds on the table. In addition to some rooms, there is a platform on the second floor, facing the stands. Just from the costumes, you can tell that the competition is better.
The people there are much better.
After looking at it, Liu Juan had an idea in his mind, so he went upstairs and sat down next to him.
The shopkeeper also asked at this time: "Master Er, what are you going to order today?"
He waved his hand in his ear and said impatiently: "Just order whatever you want, the key is to be quick! By the way, no one is going to cause trouble today, right?"
The shopkeeper hurriedly said: "Everyone knows that this is your Mr. Er's territory, so there are still people coming to make trouble?"
He nodded in his ear, obviously very happy with the shopkeeper's flattery, and said: "If anyone makes trouble here, just let me say hello, our prison there is empty!"
The shopkeeper nodded quickly and went down to make arrangements.
At this time, the ear also said generously: "You can order whatever you want, but you're welcome."
Liu Juan nodded, he had seen everything just now, and through the conversation between the shopkeeper and Ear, Liu Juan also knew roughly: Ear is like a member of the underworld protection association, eating and drinking in these shops for free, but
These stores also rely on him to prevent others from causing trouble and damaging the place.
A smile appeared on his cold face, and Liu Juan couldn't help but thought to himself: This internal guard looks like he is not only a puppet army, but also a gangster.
At this moment, I heard an exclamation in my ear: Xiaohong is out!
When Liu Juan heard this, he looked up and saw a girl in crimson clothes coming out on the wooden stage. She was about seventeen or eighteen years old and quite pretty. There was a small drum in front of her. After coming on the stage, first
He bowed and saluted the spectators, then picked up the snare drum next to the drum, banged it a few times, and then started singing.
The content she sang was about the story of Prime Minister Ruo Jia in the early Republic of China, which is also a well-known thing. However, Xiaohong's singing voice was mellow and her words were clear. Coupled with the beautiful voice of a girl, it sounded unique.
Not many singing methods of this kind have been passed down to later generations. I had never heard this kind of music before, so I immediately became interested and listened carefully.
As for his ears, he half-closed his eyes, crossed his legs, tapped his fingers lightly on the table, and then leaned on the chair, his head slowly shaking.
