Chapter 241 Don’t you have any family?
The biting wind blew over Brune's frozen face. He couldn't help but rub his nose and wiped a large lump of snot stuck to the tree trunk next to him.
Looking forward from the queue, there are still seven or eight people left, and it is Brune's turn.
According to Horn's order, only qualified people are eligible to wear the new uniforms of the Salvation Chapter.
Those soldiers who are unqualified but can join the new legion need to pass the assessment next month before they can be issued new military uniforms.
The first scroll spinning machine driven by the holy wheel has already stood on the land in the industrial area. Everyone passing by can see the mill-like textile workshop.
But this is a new textile machine after all, and it is still a bit dangerous. A textile worker had his hand twisted into the gear before.
So the output of military uniforms is still only about 40 sets a day, and it was only today that we managed to save 1,000 sets.
Other soldiers from the same household refused to believe that this stupid man was actually one of the 1,000 people who could wear the new military uniform called [Black Robe].
To everyone's surprise, Brune got top marks in all three physical fitness subjects: gun carrying, sprinting, and running.
If he hadn't gotten stuck while reciting military discipline and got a mid-range score, Brune might have been able to join the 200 outstanding soldiers who could get a bonus of 90 dinars.
Following the team forward, after walking for a minute, it was finally Brune's turn.
After taking the black robe from the military chaplain who handed out military uniforms, he turned around and found Jonnar already waiting aside.
Jonar was a member of the same recruit team as him, and he was also one of the first 200 soldiers.
Holding up the money bag in his hand, Jonnar’s beard under his garlicky nose curled up: “Look, Your Majesty gave it to me personally, are you envious?”
"Envy." Brune said dully.
With a click of his tongue, Jonnar lowered his previously raised beard: "It's really boring to talk to you. Don't leave later. I bought some mead with Ruiz from the Maltin team. I bought a silly rabbit before, let’s eat a few bites before we leave. It’s the Xinyuan Festival, there are just a few of us, we are all old acquaintances.”
These days, they, the new recruits, are in the same team, eating and living together, both prospering and suffering, even raising a dog. Feelings.
Although everyone didn't like Brune at the beginning, strength is the last word. If they don't want to eat leftovers, they have to rely on Brune's physical training to gain rankings.
Three times, Brune, who had been alone for many years, actually got into the first small group in his life.
But this did not change Brune's character. He said dullly: "I'm not going to leave. I plan to stay in the military camp during the New Year Festival."
"It's the festival! Don’t you have any family?”
“No.”
Jonnar was speechless for a moment. He leaned on the stupid big man in front of him and slowed down his tone: "If you don't have family, you always have friends. We, the first batch of recruits, don't have to stay behind."
According to According to Horn's arrangement, the recruits who had just entered the camp were not allowed to go home, but he gave them a day off so that they could celebrate in the camp.
"Friend..." Brune thought of Gashkul and the head of the Merixo tenth household. He hesitated for two seconds and then said, "Forget it."
Jonar’s eyes widened: “What do you mean, forget it, at most I’ll give you a simple bonfire party in the military camp, and there is a market in the town.
Not only the market Collection, it is said that your Majesty also organized many interesting games and food...
There are also three octagonal cage duels scheduled between Elders Sarkis and Sheamus. They are in the theater in the center of the town. The two elders fight each other. Don’t you want to see it? "
Games? Food? Brune touched his belly, and some pictures suddenly flashed through his mind.
When he was a beggar, he once encountered a market, but he had not yet When he got close enough, he was expelled by the local villagers
“I, I...”
“You really don’t think about your second brother at all. "Jonar laughed strangely and punched Brune hard on the chest, "Well, there are so many young girls in the market who are easy to get pregnant, and you are wearing such a majestic clothes..."
Brune's face turned slightly red. He hesitated for a long time, just holding his military uniform and saying nothing.
Looking at Brune's slightly frightened eyes, Jonard saw some clues.
He also hesitated for a while, and finally said: "If you are afraid of going back to your hundred households, you can come to my house. My father is the head of the hundred households, and no one can bully you."
"Uh-huh..."
"Uh-huh, uh-huh, what are you talking about?" Jonard cursed angrily, "That's it, let's hit the road after lunch. Before evening I can go to the town just in time to go to work at the textile workshop, where there are many beautiful and handy girls.”
After returning to his military camp dormitory, Brune walked into the house with his head down, and hunched over to his bed.
This is a low and dark room with ten shabby beds.
The shabbiest bed was Brune's, because he collapsed the bed on the first day.
These beds were pieced together from the beds left by Ayr soldiers at that time.
At the head of each bed, there is a box for storing sundries and clothing, which functions as a bedside table. Carefully, Brune stuffed the sturdy and imposing garment into the box.
Sitting on the edge of the bed, after the heavy training, he suddenly didn't know what to do.
He probably doesn’t want to be a soldier, but it seems like he’s doing a pretty good job as a soldier.
It’s just like what Your Majesty said today, being a soldier means killing people. When he thinks about killing people in the future, his whole body is shaking.
If I had known earlier, I should have deliberately acted worse, so that I could be persuaded to leave like those dozen people.
"Brune, Brune, where did you die? You are the only one missing!"
Brune didn't know how long he sat there, it could be a short while, it could be a long time, the door opened Jonnar's voice came from outside.
“Here it comes!”
There is naturally nothing to say about this meal. Seven or eight grown men, a small jar of mead, and a roast rabbit are divided into everyone’s mouths. Just have a taste.
But eating is not really about eating.
Brune stretched out his hand to warm the fire. Jonard stood up, put his elbow on Brune's shoulder, and boasted with the recruit on the opposite side.
“I must avenge my sister, but I still regard the knight as a hero.”
“The Pope in the Holy See City is not a good person. He doesn’t know what happened to Qianhe Valley. What's going on? I don't believe it."
"When I go to the battlefield, with this wonderful treasure of the Holy Gun, I will kill every knight who comes."
"That day. Do you know the one named Andal? ”
The short recruit named Luiz imitated vividly: "I'm going to hit ten! Bang! Ah!"
Screaming, Luiz imitated Andal's voice and lay on the ground, imitating He looked like Andal was knocked unconscious.
"Hahahahahahaha." The recruits sitting around laughed uncontrollably.
After absorbing all the oil from the bones and licking up the last drop of mead from the mouth of the jar, the soldiers each changed into new clothes and walked towards the town together.
It’s interesting to say that when these recruits came, they all came with their companions from ten households.
When he left, he left with his companions from the same recruit team.
Jonal is worthy of being from a family of watchmakers, and his time is just right.
They had just arrived at the industrial area and happened to catch up with the female workers in the textile workshop.
A group of new recruits stood in a row behind the fence on the roadside. They stood up in a military posture more seriously than when being inspected by Horn. Their faces held the most heroic and serious expressions in their lives.
Looking at the female workers approaching gradually, Brune slowly approached Jonnar: "Jonar, I think I have to go back to the Moissan Hundred Household District in advance."
< br>
"No, buddy." Jonard looked at him with wide eyes, "Everyone is not scared, why did you pull it off now?"
Brune looked at the seven or eight people around him. The New Army soldiers standing on the side of the road in a coquettish posture just laughed and said:
"After all, we are back, so we have to go over there and say something, otherwise we will be in trouble as deserters."
>"Tsk, you are so boring, coward, you go ahead, I will wait for you at the gate."
Farewell to Jonard and others, Brune finally returned to the Insu building La, he stood in front of the door, looking at the sign at the door of Insula, standing there blankly.
Wherever this tall man stood, wearing a handsome black woolen coat with a straight back, the neighbors who passed by did not dare to raise their heads.
“Brune?!”
After standing in front of the Innsula Apartments at Moissanite II for a quarter of an hour, Brune was finally recognized by a passing neighbor.
“Yes.” The roaring reply startled the man.
"Why are you shouting so loudly?" A recruit who came back early stuck his head out of the window and looked at the black coat on Brune with jealousy.
"Why, do you have to let everyone know that you put on a black robe?"
"Ah, you came just in time, you tell the head of the ten households in Merixo, I..." Raised his head, Bu Lü Ne looked at the familiar face and was halfway through explaining what he was saying when he caught a glimpse of a familiar figure walking towards him from the corner of his eye.
It's Merixo.
When he saw Brune, who was wearing a black military uniform, he immediately strode over and raised his hands high.
Brune subconsciously wanted to hide, but his body stood still, looking at Merixo with a dull or cold expression that he couldn't tell.
"Oops."
The expected slap did not come. Merixo held Brune's hand tightly, with a smile on his face, "Brother Brune, it's been so long. We are all divided, what are you doing standing at the door? Come on, come in."
