Shi Donglai stared at the two young men and one woman in front of him for a long time, then asked: "Do you think I'm sick?"

The three of them shook their heads at the same time.

Shi Donglai nodded his head, "I'm 54 this year, not too old, my legs are nimble, and my brain isn't muddled. Then tell me, why should I help you? "

"Moral!" Home country! "The civilians behind us!" Qu Feizhi puffed up his chest and looked up full of righteousness, feeling a wave of righteousness rising from the bottom of his heart.

"Bullshit!" Shi Donglai extinguished the heroic and peerless aura with spittle from his mouth and his saliva almost sprayed onto Qu Feizhi's face, "Go next door and listen to Red Camp and those little bastards' morals! Every single one of them came from Imperial Military Academy or aristocratic families, so they just had to mix in their qualifications and if they could survive for two years, they would scram! Moral my ass! You can talk about the world under the heavens with them and let them feign to attack the Demonic Beast for you! "

"Kong Sheng." Seeing that Qu Feizhi could not even lift his head up, Chen Chu faintly said one word …

Shi Donglai was startled for a moment, and his tone became less intense. "Kong Sheng, this brat is not bad, he dares to fight. If it wasn't for that brat wanting to get married, I really wouldn't let him go. But since Kong Sheng asked you to come, why didn't he come himself? After being an official for a few years, you became a coward? "

Chen Chu forcefully swallowed the words from his mouth, how could he answer? They said they sneaked out because the Commander Elder Shi was unwilling to send troops and write documents? He believed that this extremely senior Wulian Border Army commander before him would be able to scold all eight generations of the Commander Elder Shi's ancestors once.

This Shi Donglai was indeed a thorn in his side. He had stayed in the Wulian Border Army for thirty years and had countless injuries on his body. Let alone Qu Feizhi, Chen Chu, even if they were in his generation, he wouldn't have a good expression on their faces. However, this old soldier, who had basically offended everyone in the empire, had worked his way through the entire process. He had received promotions and increments in his salary. Not to mention wearing small shoes, he had not even heard of excessive words. Why? Because no one would come here to replace him.

It was rumored that every soldier with Wulian Border Army had one eye open when they slept. He had to patrol the forest during the day, and at night he had to be on guard against Demonic Beast attacking and stealing food from the camp. Although the Demonic Beast never went down the mountain from the place where Wulian Border Army were guarding, Shi Donglai was still extremely frightened.

With such an unlucky place, who would be willing to come? No matter how bad Shi Donglai's temper was, no matter how dirty his mouth was, he was still here. In the past 30 years, he had never once mentioned that he had to leave, so what if he lost 30% of his points.

As the atmosphere became colder, Xiu'er quietly stood out and looked straight at Shi Donglai, "Master Shi, I heard that in Wulian Border Army, only force is superior, and you do not know if that is true or not."

Shi Donglai smiled at the little girl who still had a childish face. "That's right. No matter how knowledgeable you are, if you can't even beat a demonic wolf, then don't stay at my Wulian Border Army. Does this little girl have anything to say? "

The Xiu'er bowed slightly, "I dare not say so. It is just that this humble woman wishes to ask, if this humble one is lucky enough to win against Master Shi in just one and half moves, can I request Wulian Border Army to help me feign an attack on the Demonic Beast? "

There was a moment of silence in the hall, followed by a burst of laughter that almost tore off the roof. 's tears were already flowing down. While wiping her tears, he said to Xiu'er, "That's right, my Wulian Border Army has such a rule. Little girl, don't say that this old man is bullying you. "I won't make a move then. You can pick any one of these people. As long as you win one, I'll agree to your request!

Xiu'er smiled sweetly: "This humble woman only wants to experience the glory of Wulian Border Army, and will follow the rules of Wulian Border Army."

"Hahahaha!" "Alright!" Shi Donglai only thought that Xiu'er had found face to leave and immediately stood up, walking around in front of the officers under him, he pointed at a big man and said, "strong man, come. Let's follow the old rules, don't embarrass our Wulian Border Army! "

The black tower like man shouted out, and cupped his fists towards the three of them. I am Gu Dazhuang, everyone calls me strong man. "

Xiu'er bowed slightly: "I've seen Big Brother strong man before, I wonder what rules exist for the competition over at Wulian Border Army."

Her sweet smile influenced the brawny guy, causing strong man to grin, "You're too polite, little miss." The method of our Wulian Border Army competition is simple, it is just to break one's wrists, move stones, and martial artists kill Demonic Beast. It was fine to choose either one, or to win three rounds. In general, other than being an officer, they were all communications. What do the three of you think? Are you referring to me as martial arts? "

Shi Donglai looked at strong man with praise. This brat was as strong as a calf, and as smart as a cunning old fox. There was nothing wrong with saying these few words.

After hearing strong man's words, Chen Chu and Qu Feizhi didn't even make a sound, and retreated a step at almost the same time. As for the two upright and robust Fire Phoenix Army officers, they seemed to not have realized this fact in the slightest, and were whispering to each other as if nothing had happened.

frowned even more. He was originally going to represent Shi Donglai in order to avoid the awkwardness of old commander being challenged by a little girl. He wanted to fight one against three, destroy the other party's might, and increase his will in Wulian Border Army. He didn't expect the two of them to be so shameless, leaving the little girl to him. What was going on?

Just as strong man wanted to speak, the Xiu'er asked with a smile. "Then we'll do as Big Brother strong man says. I wonder if Brother strong man and I will finish these three rounds in a one on one fight, or if Brother strong man will find two helpers? "

When the Xiu'er said this, both sides went into an uproar. This little girl actually had the thought of going back on her words? It was not as if everyone had never seen this kind of person before. There was once a new Red Camp officer who was this savage, to the point where no one could remember his name.

strong man snorted, he no longer bothered with this girl, and spoke in a coarse voice: "Men and women shouldn't be too intimate with each other, it's more inconvenient to break one's wrists, this is enough, let's start with moving stones." With that, he turned around and pointed to the five stone trays outside the tent. Let's make it simple: move the stone from where the stone is and put it under the flagpole. It's about two hundred feet away. When the incense was lit, whoever moved more than an incense stick's worth of time would win. "How about it?"

He was very confident when he said this. The Wulian Border Army Army camp often held competitions like this, where each stone weighed two hundred kilograms and five of them weighed a thousand kilograms. Currently, there were only three people in Wulian Border Army who could move all five stones under the flagpole in the time it took for an incense stick to burn. Even if this girl had innate strength, could she be faster than him? In fact, strong man secretly felt that Chen Chu and Qu Feizhi didn't think much of her. He felt that if this girl were to move them, she would be done for with a single word. It was clear that the two old masters didn't want to do such a disgraceful thing. Instead, they sent a girl over. These two men were truly cowardly!

Xiu'er, on the other hand, nodded her head excitedly, and said to strong man: "Then big brother strong man, can I try it first?"

strong man smiled and nodded: "Lady, please ~ ~ don't be too reluctant."

Xiu'er nodded her head, and with both hands behind her back, she slowly walked out of the tent. She stood in front of the round stone table and sized it up, then used her fingers to pinch it again and again. She went to another stone platform and picked up the stone as she had done before. She then slowly walked to the flagpole and swung his two hands. The two stone tablets crashed onto the ground, causing the ground to shake. The Wulian Border Army officers and soldiers inside and outside the tents were all dumbfounded. They had seen people with strength, never seen anyone with so much strength, and never seen a girl with so much strength.

Xiu'er leisurely walked back as if nothing had happened. ShShepicked up the two pieces of stone and walked to the third stone as usual. She tilted her head to the side and thought for a moment, then extended his feet out to look at the bottom of the stone. He glanced at her direction and used a single leg to kick the stone into the air as if it was weightless. Xiu'er took the opportunity to kick him, causing him to almost run on the ground. Just as the stone fell to the ground, Xiu'er had already pounced forward. She raised his right leg and swung it with a high kick, stepping on the stone beneath his feet. Then she let go of her hands and the two stones fell to the ground with a thud.

It was only now that Xiu'er turned to look at strong man, and said while grinning: "Big Brother strong man, it's your turn."

strong man's eyes were fixated on the scene. Forget about anything else, he couldn't just grab onto a rock with his hand. After a long while, strong man bitterly shook his head and said, "Lady's God Power, I am ashamed of myself. I admit defeat in this round. "

Xiu'er bowed slightly: "Then, we will begin the next round?"

Shi Donglai let out a long sigh, "Forget it, I don't think we need to compete. strong man, just admit defeat. "

strong man fiercely turned his head to look at Shi Donglai, and said softly: "Master! Maybe it was because the girl had more strength, catching Demonic Beast required martial skills, agility, experience and coordination. I might even be able to beat her! "

Shi Donglai frowned and stared at strong man for a good while. Just as he was about to speak up, strong man interrupted, "Master, we can lose our Wulian Border Army but we cannot let them use a few stones to scare us. Let me try again! "My Lord!"

Stone looked at strong man who had an expression of anticipation, then looked at the other officers of Border Army. He sighed, then slowly sat back down on his chair.

Seeing that he had tacitly approved, strong man immediately turned and cupped his hands towards Xiu'er, "Young lady, from now on, 15 miles to the north is a wild man's ditch. Although it was called the Wild Man's Gully but it was actually a place where demon bears roamed. The two of us will each lead a group, with one day and one night, the first one to hunt down the Demonic Bears will be the victor. " He put his finger to his mouth and whistled. Not long after, five soldiers ran over from the direction of the camp. After bowing and bowing, they stood behind strong man.

strong man looked at Xiu'er with a tinge of satisfaction, then deliberately glanced at Chen Chu and Qu Feizhi who were still standing in the tent, and said: "Miss, in the Wulian Border Army Battalion, you, Keren, will choose five people."

Xiu'er waved her hand: "I'll go take a look first, it won't be too late to talk later when I get back." With that said, she turned and walked out. She borrowed a horse from the patrolling soldiers and rode on, heading straight towards the north.

strong man turned around and returned to the tent, then sneered at Chen Chu and Qu Feizhi before bowing to Shi Donglai, "Master Shi, I will be leaving now."

Shi Donglai waved his hands, "Go, pay attention to your safety, and don't embarrass us with your Wulian Border Army!"

strong man bowed: "Please rest assured master!" After he finished speaking, he turned around and walked out, not forgetting yet that he had intentionally rolled his eyes at Chen Chu and his.

Chen Chu ignored him coldly. Then, Qu Feizhi suddenly spoke out, "This big brother, why don't we depart later?"

strong man was startled: "What do you mean?"

Qu Feizhi scratched his head and smiled, "This lady has already said she will go and take a look, is it appropriate for you to bring your troops there? A distance of fifteen miles could only last two hours at most. It would be better for everyone to take the opportunity to rest, eat lunch together, and drink and chat merrily. When Lady Xiu’er comes back, he will decide whether or not he really wants to go bear hunting.

His words were not without reason, and strong man was a little hesitant in her heart. Just a moment ago, Xiu'er did indeed say that she would go take a look first. Right now, she was leading her troops hastily, and it seemed like she was taking advantage of her.

While hesitating, Shi Donglai spoke up, "Master Qu's words are reasonable, we are all guests from far away, how can we let others starve? strong man, don't go anymore. Let's arrange for some dishes to be served later. Lady Xiu’er will rest well after he returns. The matter regarding the competition will be discussed tomorrow. "

"Yes!" "My Lord!" Since the boss had spoken, strong man did not want to say anymore, hence he accepted the order and left the room.

Two hours later, there were already three to five tables of wine at the entrance of the tent. The cooks were carrying the dishes up to the table like flowing water. Wulian Mountain Range s were rich in resources, from bear claws and tiger bones to wild hare hens, there were more than a dozen types of wild vegetables and mushrooms, let alone the various wild fruits that filled the mountains. As Qu Feizhi looked at the table full of dishes, he suddenly thought about the matter of Phoenix City Pass losing their rations a while ago. He hurriedly got up and said to Shi Donglai, "Master Shi, this is really too sumptuous, too sumptuous."

Shi Donglai smiled faintly and replied with a question, "The Wulian Border Army s can't make up more than ten thousand people, but there are more than fifteen thousand people in this army camp. However, the military rations were distributed to only 5,000 people per month. General Qu, do you know why? "

Qu Feizhi was startled, and subconsciously replied: "Could it be that someone deducted the payment of food?"

When he said that, the surrounding Wulian Border Army officers all laughed out loud. "Wrong! It's all my fault! "I don't like to eat those brown rice noodles!"

Shi Donglai stretched out his chopsticks and pointed to a table of meat and wine, "These things are our daily necessities. If you want to eat anything, go ask Wu Lian Mountain. There was everything in the mountain, just to see if he had the ability to obtain it. You two don't have to be so polite, just go ahead and eat! "

After an interlude, the relationship between Qu Feizhi and the other officers had grown closer. Although Wulian Border Army and Red Camp were not much in the eyes of others, they were still quite concerned about the battle between the Phoenix City Pass guards from a few days ago. Qu Feizhi's straightforward attitude also suited their appetite. Everyone would choose a few interesting things to tell him, and laughter would occasionally burst out from the table.

After three rounds of drinking, the atmosphere at the table became more and more heated. Amongst them, Shi Donglai had actually asked the Lady Xiu’er a few times. Qu Feizhi casually said that this lady did not like to socialize, so even if she returned, she would definitely not attend this occasion.

Just as Qu Feizhi was patting his chest and doing everything, Xiu'er's voice came from behind him, "Master Qu, even if he doesn't like to drink wine on the table, at least he should at least say a few polite words, right?"

Qu Feizhi was startled, he stood up and turned around, and asked with a face brimming with joy: "You're back? "What about that place?" Chen Chu, who had been silent all this time, stood up and looked at Xiu'er with interest.

Xiu'er bowed towards Shi Donglai and the rest before replying with a smile on her face, "Thank goodness for the mission."

It was only then that the training camp's soldiers stumbled over and shouted loudly, "Reporting to the ~ ~ Master Jin Shi!" Just now, someone threw a Demonic Bear at the entrance of the camp. "

Xiu'er pursed her lips and laughed: ", no need to panic, I threw that Demonic Bear there. Carrying it all the way is a bit tiring. "
