From a small soldier in the frontier army, an immortal god of war was born

Chapter 15 New Year's Eve is coming, meeting Jiang Qiyu

In two months, he grew a little taller, about 1.82 meters tall, and became more sturdy, and could fully support a set of standard armor on his body.

His face looked much more resolute, and he was very handsome. His long hair was tied behind his head, leaving only two strands of hair hanging down.

He is completely different from the weak and skinny appearance at the beginning.

Of course, the change in appearance is not very important. What really makes Wu Fengdeng happy is that he successfully broke through to the middle stage of the Skin Refining Realm on the eve of the end of the rookie period.

Two pieces of red blood and two months of time were just within his expectations.

This level of cultivation is fully qualified in the Vanguard Battalion and can be directly incorporated into the Spear Army for training.

While the inspector was still announcing the formations to which other people belonged, Wu Fengdeng calmed down and opened the Mirror of Victory.

After two months of non-stop hard work, I have completed one volume of [Lancer], and have mastered [Dragon Thorn] and [Scorpion Pick]. I only have one skill point left, and unlocking [Phoenix Chop] is just around the corner.

It can be said that there is steady progress.

At the same time, in a tent about 200 meters away from the training ground, Wang Hu stood quietly with a sword across his shoulder, staring at the recruits with sharp eyes.

He especially stopped at Wu Fengdeng, with a look of sincere admiration on his square face.

rustle~
A few imperceptible footsteps were heard from behind. Wang Hu's eyes rolled and he immediately clasped his fists and saluted.

"Master Xu!"

The man was seven feet tall, burly and strong, wearing a rhinoceros-skin bronze armor, a three-foot-long sword on his waist, a short beard and thick eyebrows, and looked masculine and tough.

It was the captain of the cavalry, Xu Tailai.

"These new recruits have passed the inspection and have been disbanded. How many do you want under your command, Wang Hu?"

Wang Hu said in a deep voice: "My Lord, I only need one person."

"one person?"

Xu Tailai adjusted his voice slightly, apparently a little surprised.

"Wang Hu, you have always been competitive and always wanted to be the best in everything. If not, how could you have won the position of governor just three months after becoming a centurion?"

"Why are you being modest now?"

Wang Hu replied, "Sir, one of my subordinates can defeat ten men!"

Xu Tailai's gaze gradually shifted to the distance, and he accurately saw Wu Fengdeng, who was as tall and straight as a pine tree, in the parade ground.

Suddenly he smiled slightly.

"But the top of the recruit list?"

"Exactly."

Wang Hu stood up straight and looked at Wu Fengdeng like him.

"When Wu Fengdeng was a new recruit in the army and was still working as a handyman in a blacksmith shop, he killed a bandit on his own. From then on, I knew he was a good candidate."

"The facts prove that this is indeed the case. He has been at the top of the list of new recruits for three months, from the time he was selected in the new recruit camp until today's exam. He also made great contributions in the last fight against the bandits in Black Wind Village."

"I don't want to let go of such an outstanding talent."

Xu Tailai listened quietly, and his eyes lit up especially when he heard about the bandits from Black Wind Village.

"it's him?"

"Exactly."

Xu Tailai smiled even more, stroked his chin and praised: "He is indeed a good seedling. Talents like him should be cultivated well and work for us. What do you think?"

"Your Excellency is right. I will teach you wholeheartedly!"

Wang Hu saluted again with a solemn expression.

Bang bang!

Xu Tailai patted his shoulder heavily.

"Little prince, work hard, I will speak well of you in front of the deputy general. You and I can do a lot in this borderland of Wei country!"

Wang Hu lowered his head, his eyes sharp.

"Thank you very much, sir."

……

At noon, Wu Fengdeng received new armor and winter clothes from the quartermaster department and moved into a new barracks.

From this moment on, he was an official member of the Vanguard Battalion!
"Come on, guys, let's go out for a drink!" "Tomorrow is the New Year, let's go to a brothel and have some fun today!"

"Go, go, go! Have fun!"

……

As the New Year was approaching, the defenders of Guyang County also took a three-day holiday. Except for the soldiers on patrol and guard duty, basically all of them ran out to indulge themselves.

The huge camp was suddenly emptied.

Wu Fengdeng made his bed, and Qiao Li's wretched face appeared at the door.

"Brother Wu! Let's go out for a drink. I'll treat you and introduce you to some new brothers."

Because Wang Hu only wanted Wu Fengdeng in the recruit camp, even if Qiao Li used his connections and money to get him, it was to no avail, and he could only be assigned to the barracks closest to him.

He held on to this thigh tightly.

Wu Fengdeng waved his hand and said calmly: "Let's do it another day. I have to meet someone."

Qiao Li could only scratch the back of his head and sighed, "Okay then."

The person he wanted to see was Jiang Qiyu, his best friend whom he had not seen for four months.

As we stepped out of the military camp, we saw the festive Guyang County.

New Year’s Eve is approaching, and red lanterns and brand new Spring Festival couplets are hung on rows of blue bricks and tiles.

The sounds of firecrackers are often heard from the hawking on both sides of the street, and children with pigtails run around holding incense sticks.

It seems that the New Year atmosphere is more festive than in the previous life.

Wu Fengdeng walked among them and couldn't help but sigh.

"Brother Fengdeng!"

Suddenly, a crisp shout was heard, and white steam was seen rising from the steamer in front, and Jiang Qiyu was walking towards them quickly with a happy smile on his face.

She was about 1.7 meters tall, with long hair tied up behind her head, clear eyes and a pretty face, but her cheeks were red from the cold and had traces of frostbite.

He was wearing a dark brown linen cotton jacket and puffy coarse cotton trousers.

Although the clothes are very old and the material is not good, they are surprisingly clean and pleasing to the eye.

This look is completely different from the dishevelled, lice- and flea-ridden look in my memory.

She is actually a beauty!

"I asked the shopkeeper for half a day off. I can go back after dark."

Wu Fengdeng smiled and nodded, then asked, "Did you receive the money in the envelope last time?"

Jiang Qiyu nodded vigorously and smiled: "Got it, Brother Fengdeng, you are really amazing. You have made so much money now. It will take me three months to catch up with you."

"Then why didn't you buy some ointment to put on your face? It's frozen like this."

When Wu Fengdeng was a child, he grew up in the countryside. His family was poor and he often suffered from frostbite in the winter. It was painful when it was cold, and it would become extremely itchy when it was hot, especially on his face.

So he knew very well how miserable Jiang Qiyu was feeling right now.

But she smiled and said, "It's okay. It will get better slowly when the weather gets warmer. It's always been like this in previous years. You don't need to buy ointment. Even if you have money, you can't squander it."

"I'm still waiting for Brother Fengdeng to save enough money to redeem me."

After saying that, Jiang Qiyu took out a cloth bag from his arms and weighed it with a smile on his face.

Ding ding~
The crisp sound of copper coins was heard.

"Hey, Brother Fengdeng, put it away quickly."

Seeing her smile that seemed to be seeking credit, Wu Fengdeng suddenly felt a little pity for her and raised his hand to push her purse over to him.

"You entered the Liu family because you saved me. It is my duty to redeem you. How can I let you pay for this?"

Jiang Qiyu tilted his mouth and squinted his eyes and said, "You don't think it's too little, do you?"

"Kind of."

Wu Fengdeng smiled, then patted her arm gently and walked towards the nearest pharmacy.

"Follow me quickly."
