Chapter 213 Is this okay?


Chapter 213 Is this even possible?
The surrounding environment gradually became clearer.

The white walls are covered with dirty black dust, the houses are in dilapidated condition, and some places don't even have tiles.

It had rained not long ago, and when my feet stepped on the ground in the yard, they were immediately covered with mud.

In the dilapidated courtyard, a large wooden sign leaned against the wall with two words written on it:
"Recruitment."

A fat man sitting behind the table, wearing an official uniform and sweating all over his head.

"Move faster!"

He shouted impatiently, threw a wooden stick to the thin man across the table, and waved the other person to leave.

There were two words written on the wooden sign:
"Hard labor."

The thin man took the wooden stick, cried a few times, had no choice but to turn around and leave.

The fat man held up his official hat, glared and shouted: "Come up one by one for me to see, hurry up, don't waste my time!"

Everyone looked at each other.

However, before anyone could stand up, the fat official changed his tone and said with a smile: "That little lady, why were you sent here?"

"Come here, let me take a good look at it. Maybe I will be merciful and spare you the errand."

Everyone followed his gaze.

——But it was Xiao Mengyu.

There is no way, a little girl like her is in the most beautiful moment of youth, and she has stunning beauty. Standing in the crowd, she is like a fairy who has fallen into the mortal world, which is too dazzling.

Xiao Mengyu curled up his lips slightly and stepped forward seriously, standing in front of the tall desk.

"Name?"

"Xiao Mengyu."

"Do you have any other talents?"

"have."

"Come, come into the room with me, I will give you a try on your talents."

Clang!
With a flash of the sword, the man's official uniform and clothes were immediately cut into two pieces, exposing his chest.

The sword was pressed against his heart.

The man started to scream, but was interrupted by Xiao Mengyu:

"Don't scream - if you scream, I will gently pass the sword over and it will just penetrate your heart and you will die."

Beads of sweat dripped from the man's face, his face full of horror, and he nodded repeatedly.

"Do you think I should be a slave?"

Xiao Mengyu asked.

The man shook his head quickly.

"You still want to test my talent?" Xiao Mengyu's voice became softer.

The man didn't dare to move, but his head shook even more.

He picked up another bundle of wooden sticks on the table, pulled one out, and threw it to Xiao Mengyu.

Everyone looked intently and saw two words written on the wooden sign:

"Soldiers."

There are only two kinds of wooden signs on the table, one is "hard labor" and the other is "soldier".

——In short, Xiao Mengyu has got rid of his status as a hard laborer.

She picked up the "soldier" wooden sign on the table and said with a smile: "If I see you making trouble for any woman, I will definitely kill you, no matter what official you are, do you understand?"

The man nodded again.

Xiao Mengyu then put away the wooden stick, turned around and walked out of the yard.

It was only then that the man shouted and rushed into the house behind him.

All the students started talking one after another.

Nangong Sirui glanced at Shen Ye and asked, "Are you going to pass the test like this soon?"

"I don't know." Shen Ye said.

"Hmph, if it were me, I would kill that guy directly. In this way, it would be fun to become a gangster." Nangong Sirui said.

——Teacher Dong asked to get rid of the status of hard labor, so killing officials is naturally not a hard labor.

"You show me how to kill him." Shen Ye pointed forward.

Nangong Sirui looked around and saw another official walking out of the house and sitting down at the table.

"Okay, let's move on, the next one comes up."

The official said grimly.

Zhang Xiaoyi took a step forward.

"Hard laborer, get down." The official threw out a wooden stick.

"Look carefully, I'm not a hard laborer, right?" Zhang Xiaoyi smiled and put something on the table.

When everyone looked around, they saw it was a piece of silver.

God knows where he got this piece of silver!

The official suddenly smiled and nodded repeatedly: "He is a man of great talent. Come on, change this one, let's go!"

He took away the sign for "hard labor" and gently placed the sign for "soldier" on the table.

"Thank you, sir!"

Zhang Xiaoyi took the wooden pick, turned around and left.

"Hey, why are you paying bribes?" Guo Yunye grabbed him and said angrily.

Zhang Xiaoyi said something in his ear before walking out of the yard.

Guo Yunye was stunned, and was no longer angry, with a smile on his face.

When someone asked him, he whispered:

"The official had the money with him. Ayi took his money and bribed him."

The official over there shouted again:

"Next!"

This time it was Shen Ye's turn.

Shen Ye walked forward, stood behind the table, and asked directly:

"Can I choose soldiers by paying money?"

"Nonsense!" The official glared at him, "That guy has a sinister look on his face at first glance. How can you compare with him?"

A wooden stick was thrown over.

Soldier sign.

"I see that you have a long sword on your waist and a majestic weapon. You must be a good hand at killing enemies in battle - go!" the official said.

Everyone looked at each other.

Shen Ye was also a little confused.

But now that I’ve passed the test——

He picked up the soldier's sign, saluted the official, turned and walked out of the yard.

"I understand," Nangong Sirui whispered, "You have a sword on your waist. How can ordinary people in this era afford such a sword? Xiao Mengyu made another move before, so the officials are afraid that you have other identities and cause trouble. He suffered the loss himself.”

Everyone was stunned.

Only Shen Ye lowered his head and walked forward silently.

The glimmer of light emerged and gathered into small words: "Today's 'Overlord Meal' has been used."

"——You have become an official soldier without paying any price."

All right.

…Actually, that’s okay.

Outside the yard.

Xiao Mengyu and Zhang Xiaoyi are waiting.

"Huh? According to Teacher Dong's request, you have got rid of your hard labor status, so you can finish class." Shen Ye asked.

When the two heard this, they pointed to the ground together.

Shen Ye looked down and saw a line of words written on the ground:

"Getting out of hard labor is just the minimum requirement. You can barely reach the 60-point class requirement. You have to continue to think of ways to obtain a higher status."

...Okay, just wait.

"When did you steal that official's money?" Shen Ye asked curiously.

"While you were queuing there, I slipped out of the yard and walked around in a circle. I happened to see someone bribing the official at the back door. While he was entering the room to drink tea, I conveniently touched a tablet." Zhang Xiaoyi said. .

"Collecting information as soon as we come here, good!" Shen Ye gave him a thumbs up.

After a while.

The students passed the test one after another.

Only a handful of students failed to succeed, including Guo Yunye.

Zhang Xiaoyi felt anxious, stepped forward, grabbed Guo Yunye's lapel, and shouted: "Hey, what did you do? If you can't do it, give him a good beating."

Guo Yunye was a little ashamed, lowered his head and said:

"Didn't perform well."

Shen Ye also felt strange when he suddenly saw Zhou Heng coming out of the yard——

He seems to be ranked behind Guo Yunye.

"Zhou Heng, let me ask, why did Yun Ye fail to pass?" Shen Ye said.

Zhou Heng shook his head and said: "He heard that there was no limit to the food he could eat as a hard laborer every day. He could eat whatever he wanted, so he hesitated and didn't show much performance."

Everyone looked at Guo Yunye.

"No, no, I really didn't perform well." Guo Yunye waved his hands hastily.

Nangong Sirui shook his fan and said leisurely: "The hard laborers don't have meat to eat, but the soldiers do."

Guo Yunye raised his head with an "ah" sound, his face full of regret.

——You just want to eat!

Everyone said silently in their hearts.

Soon the peons were left behind and the others were told to head up the mountain.

Everyone set off one after another.

It took about a quarter of an hour to walk.

"Hey, are you the recruits of this batch?"

Someone shouted.

Follow the sound and go——

Beside the hillside, several soldiers gathered around a man dressed as an officer and looked over.

Everyone, look at me, and I'll look at you.

"Ouch! Someone kick me!"

Zhang Xiaoyi shouted and staggered out of the team.

Those people immediately looked at Zhang Xiaoyi.

Zhang Xiaoyi had no choice but to step forward and said: "Yes, we are this batch of recruits."

The officer stared at him, nodded and said: "He is a hard-working man, so let's be an engineer - come on, just give him the tools and go up the mountain to report to the excavation site."

Zhang Xiaoyi looked bitter.

Had I known this——

What kind of role do you want to take, what kind of squad leader do you want to be?

"Go quickly or else we will be dealt with by military law!"

The soldier next to the officer shouted.

Zhang Xiaoyi had no choice but to go.

"Come here one by one. I will arrange errands based on your abilities." The officer added.

Nangong Sirui stood out from the crowd and was the first to stand up.

He threw a jade pendant to the other party.

The officer looked at it and nodded: "Disciple of the Nangong family? If I let you mine, I won't have to do it tomorrow - you can go to the pavilion over there and wait."

Everyone gasped.

This was thousands of years ago!
In other words, thousands of years ago, the Nangong family was already a prominent family in this era!

Nangong Sirui didn't say anything. He held his hand towards the officer. Shi Shiran walked to the pavilion opposite, waved his fan, picked up a cup of tea and drank it.

"Next!"

shouted the officer.

The students all turned their attention to Shen Ye and Xiao Mengyu.

These are the top three in the exam!

Xiao Mengyu took the lead and took a step forward, cupped his hands as a courtesy and said:
"My lord, this little girl is good at fencing."

"Oh?" The officer became interested, "Try to fight against my own soldiers."

A soldier came out with a spear.

Xiao Mengyu greeted him with a sword.

"start!"

The spear thrust.

Xiao Mengyu swung his sword to block it, took a step forward, and put his sword lightly against the opponent's neck.

An understatement.

"Accept." Xiao Mengyu sheathed her sword.

The officer high-fived and exclaimed: "Reducing complexity into simplicity? Your swordsmanship has become proficient. Take this badge and go to the pavilion over there to wait!"

"Yes!" Xiao Mengyu took away his badge and was about to leave.

She stole a glance at Shen Ye.

Shen Ye had no choice but to take a step forward, cupped his hands and said:
"My lord——"

Before he could finish his sentence, the officer interrupted him:

"Well, I see that you are handsome and handsome, with extraordinary talents, stunning talent and beauty, a jade tree facing the wind, and unparalleled elegance. You can go on your own." The officer waved his hand.

Silence fell.

The students looked at each other, shocked for a moment.

Is this okay? ? ?
