MTL - In the Great World of Martial Arts, You Use the Tao of Talisman To Rule the Ages?-Chapter 103 conscription
Chapter 103 Recruitment
The river boat is light and the water is rough.
Different from when we came here, taking a river boat back to the county only requires you to go down the river.
The four silver-spotted wolves lying in the middle of the ship were still the focus of everyone's eyes, and they spoke in admiration from time to time.
Although Chen Lin had made it clear just now that he had no intention of selling it, it did not prevent them from taking a second look.
Chen Lin also looked at the things these martial artists brought back at this time. Although they were all wrapped up, he could still see that they should contain various medicinal materials.
He didn't know much about this.
But I didn’t feel any special spiritual energy fluctuations.
‘It means there are no high-grade elixirs here, they should just be the medicinal materials used in various martial arts soups. ’
He was very curious about this kind of medicinal soup at the beginning, but he had inquired about it at the Wuxiang Martial Arts School before, and also asked Fan Yishi. It was made from some rare medicinal materials that he often heard about, and added some secret medicine.
The really important thing here is the special secret medicine.
These secret medicines are in the hands of the Qi Jing of each martial arts school.
As for the effect of the medicinal decoction...
It’s not as good as his Ghost Tooth Pork Bone Soup anyway.
He even suspected that the so-called secret medicine of Qi realm might be a ghost tooth pig bone, or some similar strange object.
Go all the way back to Xicheng Pier.
The river boat was tied to the shore. Chen Lin easily lifted up the four big wolves by their tails and got off the boat in just one step.
Several other people on the boat stared at his leaving figure.
“When will I be able to bump into four big wolves like this?” Wan Xuanyuan from the Wuxiang Martial Arts School smacked his lips and couldn’t help but feel envious.
Senior brother Pei Zhongjie slapped him on the head:
"What are you thinking about? With your level, you can only deal with one or two of them. If four of them come, you won't be able to escape!"
"Indeed... luck is not enough. If you want to win four silver-spotted wolves, you still have to have strength."
Others agreed.
"However," Gu Wenqin suddenly rubbed his nose, "Chen Lin got high after eating rare delicacies, right?"
As soon as these words came out, several martial artists didn't know how to respond. In the end, they could only sigh hard and cry silently in their hearts.
“Alas, this is no luck!”
…
Chen Lin grabbed the four tails of the silver-spotted wolf and walked all the way through Xicheng.
The people on the street were walking in a hurry, but they couldn't help but cast a glance.
From time to time, some knowledgeable people would stop him and want to ask about the business, but as soon as they recognized him, these people would be scared away.
Seems to believe the rumor that he likes to kill people randomly on the street…
“The He family is like this now, are you still spreading rumors about me?”
Chen Lin always felt that something was wrong.
That old man He has been dead for so many days, and the side branches have no say. The main branch is located in Longguan City, which is five hundred miles away.
Under such circumstances, does the He family really have the ability to continue targeting themselves?
Walking past He's house, the guards standing in front of the gate seemed much lazier and kept yawning.
On the contrary, there were a few more ruffians, driving a group of crying children into He's house through the side door.
There were no more curses from the visitors.
The people were walking in a hurry on the streets with their heads down, their faces full of sadness, and they had no time to pay attention to these things.
The number of customers at various tea stalls and restaurants has dropped sharply, with only a few here and there.
The warm wind of late spring blew through the banners and banners of each house. The red lanterns hung during the New Year gradually turned brown and swayed slightly with the wind, making them look a bit lonely.
Chen Lin only discovered it at this time.
Compared with before entering the mountains, the atmosphere in the county town is much more solemn now.
Just returned to Beichengshan City.
“Master Lin!”
“What a big wolf!”
“Hey, dear, this is the silver spotted wolf!”
Shops everywhere still greet us warmly.
While responding, Chen Lin noticed that the mountain city seemed deserted now.
After the rogue problem was resolved, it cooled down again within a few days of prosperity.
Bring the silver-spotted wolf to Butcher Zheng and ask him to help kill it and peel off the skin. He chose to bring these four wolves back because it was too troublesome.
The ghost-tusked pig from before, even with the help of magic, was enough to waste him for most of the night, and the whole person was very tired.
Even so, there are still some areas that cannot be dealt with in the end, such as the intestines of the Ghost Tooth Pig.
So, until now, there is still a cold thing in the Big Snake Cave...
Just think of it as a small gift for the big snake.
Place the four wolves on the chopping board and let Butcher Zheng do the work.
By the way, I would like to ask about the situation in the county.
Butcher Zheng sighed:
“Master Lin doesn’t know something. The imperial court sent a special envoy two days ago. It is said that he is here to recruit troops!”
“Conscription?”
"Yes, the only good thing is that it is said that the people who came to recruit this time are not ordinary soldiers, but military masters from the county. But if you say that, who knows if we will be dragged up to pad the corpses later?"
“Oh, Mr. Lin, you are also a martial artist now…”
“It’s okay, keep talking.”
"I, I heard that the special envoy has been in contact with various martial arts schools in the past few days. I don't know the specific results. I only know that the county magistrate in the city has been accompanying him."
In addition to conscription, Butcher Zheng also talked about raising taxes.
This was within everyone’s expectations.
As early as the first big defeat, everyone had already expected it.
Four silver-spotted wolves cannot be dealt with in a short while.
Chen Lin simply went to the Five Form Martial Arts School in the inner city first.
Originally, I planned to find Wen Guangyuan.
Who would have known that he was not here, but Pei Zhongjie and Wan Xuanyuan had returned to the martial arts hall and took the initiative to receive him.
A small pavilion next to the martial arts arena.
Pei Zhongjie poured him a cup of tea and asked:
“Brother Chen is here for recruitment?”
"Yes," Chen Lin nodded, "I'm not well-informed, and I still don't know what's going on."
“To be honest, I was shocked when I returned to the martial arts gym just now.”
“However, someone soon said that although the special envoy came to recruit martial arts masters, his target this time was not us advanced martial arts masters..."
Pei Zhongjie looked resentful at this time, as if he had escaped.
Chen Lin had a guess:
“So what they want now is an aura martial artist?”
“Yes, I saw that’s what the imperial notice said.”
Pei Zhongjie poured a cup of tea, not sure whether he was worried or happy:
"Our master has been dealing with the special envoy these days in order to avoid this disaster."
“The battlefield is dangerous with swords and weapons. Even for Qi realm martial artists, it is easy to get in and out. Only when you reach the Yuangang realm and become the leader of a party can you keep your life safe!"
According to what Wen Guangyuan said before, above the Qi realm is Yuangang.
It is a state that can only be achieved after refining one's own vitality into something rare and achieving complete transformation. At this state, collapsing mountains and rivers is no longer just an empty talk.
Further up is the "magical power", which is said to be at the level of a general who governs a country.
Chen Lin thought about Pei Zhongjie's words.
“Are you circling around…”
“So, the envoy left some room?”
"Well," Pei Zhongjie looked around and made sure there was no one else. He lowered his voice and said, "We are just a county town. We can't recruit a few martial arts masters. The special envoy probably didn't intend to complete the mission and just wanted to make a big fortune. , are asking for all kinds of rare things..."
The words just fell.
A panting apprentice ran in from outside:
“Third division, senior brother!”
“The government has issued an order for all disciples who have achieved great success in the Three Realms or above to gather in the barracks!”
???”
Chen Lin threw a few questions at Pei Zhongjie.
The other party's face twitched and he didn't give an answer for a long time.
