Xia Qingchen nodded with satisfaction: "Okay, that's it."
Afterwards, let's go to the so-called Martial Tower to test his cultivation. His strength far exceeds the standard of a hundred knights, and may even reach the level of a thousand knights.
"Okay, let's apply for identity tokens for Mr. Xia and his companions." Bai Xiaoqi said.
At this very moment.
The gates opened and the horn sounded.
Like thunder outside, there was the sound of rumbling footsteps.
"Is it Gongsun Qianxiao who is riding back from chasing the enemy?"
"It looks like we have won a great victory and will be praised by our superiors again."
The fence opened, and thousands of soldiers riding monster beasts stirred up large amounts of dust and returned majestically.
The leader is none other than Gongsun Wuji!
He did not squint, Qi Yu proudly led his team back, enjoying the attention of the entire military camp.
"Holy shit! Master Chen, isn't that the janitor slave of our Xia Mansion?" Qiu Chou said with his eyes wide open and extremely surprised.
Lian Xing only followed Xia Qingchen later, so naturally he didn't know Gongsun Wuji.
But how could Qiuqiu not recognize him?
Qiu Chou's words were just noise amidst the rumble of beast's hooves, and no one cared about them at all.
But Gongsun Wuji heard this and immediately reined in the reins to stop the giant beast.
He looked at the voice in surprise and found Qiu Qiu with his pupils shrinking!
"Xia Qingchen's dog?" Gongsun Wuji said in surprise. His eyes immediately glanced to the side, and a figure with a profound memory came into view!
"Xia Qingchen?" Gongsun Wuji exclaimed, but immediately got off his horse and walked quickly to Xia Qingchen.
He had a thick smile of joy on his face.
How can we not be happy when we meet old friends?
What a surprise!
Xia Qingchen thought for a while, then remembered Gongsun Wuji, and smiled lightly: "Long time no see!"
Gongsun Wuji was so excited that he could not speak coherently. He had many things to say in his heart, but for a moment he didn't know where to start.
It took a while before he remembered: "By the way, why did you come to the military camp in Liangzhou?"
Qiu Chou grinned: "Of course you are here to be a soldier?"
Gongsun Wuji patted his thigh: "Why didn't you tell me earlier? Find me!"
He walked towards the Bai Xiaoqi and said, "What position have you arranged for Brother Xia?"
Baixiao Qichen said in fear: "Replying to my lord, I am a soldier."
He secretly clicked his tongue, what is Xia Qingchen's background?
He actually has an irreconcilable relationship with Gongsun Wuji, the number one thousand knight in the Southwest Military Region?
In the Southwest Military Region, there are a total of one hundred Qianxiaoqi, each of whom is in charge of one thousand elite soldiers and generals.
Among them, in last year's military camp competition, Gongsun Wuji did his part and won the first place in the Qianxiaoqi Competition.
He is a very dazzling young military general in the Southwest Military Region.
"Soldier?" Gongsun Wuji immediately frowned: "Immediately change him to a soldier commander!"
A soldier commander is responsible for ten soldiers and is considered a sesame official.
Bai Xiaoqi said, "Lord Gongsun, there are rules in the military palace. Any promotion must be based on corresponding strength or meritorious service."
It is difficult for many people to improve their strength, but they have made great contributions. Such people cannot be cold to their hearts, right?
Therefore, in addition to strength, merit can also be used as a promotion channel.
However, the required merit is very huge and difficult to achieve.
Gongsun Wuji slapped five tokens of the World-Hateful Immortal on the table: "Xia Qingchen helped me strangle the World-Hateful Immortal. This meritorious service should be 500 points. Is it enough to be promoted to a soldier commander?"
Bai Xiaoqi said in surprise: "Master Gongsun wants to give all his merits to Mr. Xia?"
Five pieces of World-Hateful Immortal can only be exchanged for 500 meritorious deeds, but now they are all given to Xia Qingchen.
Bai Xiaoqi couldn't believe it. Gongsun Wuji was attacking Wan Xiaoqi's military position. It was the time to accumulate meritorious deeds.
Five hundred meritorious deeds is not a small amount for him.
"Stop talking nonsense!" Gongsun Wuji waved his sleeve: "Immediately change your position to commander of the army!"
Bai Xiaoqi had no choice but to accept the token of the Hateful Immortal with deep regret.
"Wait a minute!" Xia Qingchen said, "I will fight for the military position myself, but will it be a waste of your merits?"
Gongsun Wuji said without hesitation: "How can a mere five hundred meritorious deeds be compared to the kindness of your guidance that day?"
He reached out and grabbed a soldier's commander's token that Bai Xiaoqi had taken from him, and then he wrote the words "Xia Qingchen" on the spot!
Finally, he couldn't help but stuff it into Xia Qingchen's palm.
"From now on, you and I are comrades-in-arms with Tongze!" Gongsun Wuji patted Xia Qingchen on the shoulder, feeling particularly happy.
Xia Qingchen was helpless. Five hundred meritorious deeds were wasted. He could have obtained a higher military position by relying on his own strength.
"Thank you!" Xia Qingchen said.
"Haha! How can we say thank you between you and me?" Gongsun Wuji said.
He was about to continue talking to Xia Qingchen when the voice of his confidant came from the monster: "Master Gongsun and Master Yu are waiting for our report."
Hearing this, Gongsun Wuji could only stop talking and said: "I am currently busy with military affairs. In three days, I will host a banquet for you in the city. How about we chat at that time?"
Xia Qingchen said: "Okay."
After not seeing each other for many years, he also wanted to have a talk with Gongsun Wuji. If the conversation went well, he could also give some advice on Gongsun Wuji's cultivation.
"Farewell!" Gongsun Wuji turned over and jumped on the monster, leading his army back to the camp in a mighty manner.
A number of trailers were behind him, passing in front of Xia Qingchen and others.
There were several corpses lying on it that looked like they were dead. Lian Xing recognized them at a glance and said in surprise: "Xia Lang, aren't these the Dark Moon World-hating Immortals you killed?"
Qiuqiu rolled his eyes: "After a long time of work, the meritorious service belongs to Master Chen! It's enough to use Master Chen's meritorious service to give Master Chen a favor!"
Xia Qingchen stopped them: "Don't talk nonsense!"
He looked at Gongsun Wuji, who had already heard the two people talking, but without even looking back, he quickly left with his confidants.
After being far away, his confidants saw that the smile on Gongsun Wuji's face had faded, and they couldn't help but said, "Isn't that Xia Qingchen so shameless? Your Excellency only gave him the credit in order to help them."
"But in the end, he actually took the credit for himself and said that he killed it himself, completely erasing the kindness of the Lord!"
"How can there be such ungrateful people in the world! What a lesson!"
Gongsun Wuji waved his hand to silence his angry confidant.
He looked at the sunset that was burning like fire on the horizon, and a deep loneliness appeared on his face: "The road to martial arts is long and long. How many people I once knew will disappear from my life?"
"Xia Qingchen... my former fierce rival, the former wise man... why did he become like this?"
Originally, he wanted to regard Xia Qingchen as a powerful enemy.
But Xia Qingchen's pet and the words of his maid made him greatly disappointed.
How long ago, that high-spirited young man who drew the earth as a prison, has been reduced to a philistine who takes advantage of others and forgets their friendship?
A ray of evening breeze blew in, mixed with coldness.
Gongsun Wuji wrapped himself in a cloak, feeling inexplicably lonely.
In the distance, Xia Qingchen sighed helplessly and said: "Forget it, let's go test our cultivation first and get back a Qianxiao Cavalry military position, and then we can explain to him."
