I'm Really A Newcomer
Chapter 40 Monster
Tonight Jiang Mian drank some wine with Ye Taoli. Since this was Jiang Mian's first time drinking, Ye Taoli was basically the one drinking. Jiang Mian really didn't expect that as the eldest daughter of the Ye family, the dignified colonel would be drinking a bottle of low-quality liquor worth twenty yuan at the open-air food stall in Lintian.
He thought that Ye Taoli would be the kind of person who shakes a goblet and takes a sip of precious red wine like Romanée-Conti, looking down at all living beings from the highest point of Lintian City. Then the wine liquid against her bright red lips becomes more and more beautiful, like a wanton flower. The type where the blooming rose is so deep in love that she elegantly places the wine glass on the rosewood table and then cuts it towards the sky.
Didn't expect she wasn't.
Also, if you drink Kangdi's Ye Taoli, you won't eat the stew that costs 20 yuan a bowl at a roadside stall, nor will your eyes show that kind of light when you eat the tomatoes and eggs you made yourself.
She drank bottle after bottle of wine, and Jiang Mian couldn't stop her. Ye Taoli pressed her flawless side face against the oil-stained table. Tables in food stalls are always oil-stained. Her hazy eyes were looking at the empty bottle on the table, and her right hand was holding it empty and tapping the table lightly, just like everyone around her.
When the customers at the food stall first saw Ye Taoli, who was wearing a majestic military uniform, they were suppressed by her aura. Even some bald men with blue dragons and white tigers tattooed on their upper bodies were arrogant when they saw her indifference. Don't dare to go out.
However, everyone felt relieved after seeing Ye Taoli talking nonsense when he was drunk, because at this time everyone probably knew that this person should really come to drink.
The drunken Ye Taoli was wearing a wet hair, her messy strands of purple hair playfully covering her misty dark eyes.
Jiang Mian could feel that Ye Taoli was in a bad mood today. Jiang Mian noticed it as soon as she entered the door. So Jiang Mian quietly drank wine with Ye Taoli. Jiang Mian was not good at drinking and tried to reduce his presence as much as possible, but Ye Taoli suddenly grabbed Jiang Mian's hand.
A section of her wrist was exposed from the sleeve of her military uniform, with several newly healed scars on it.
"Too many people died today...more people will die in the future." Ye Taoli murmured vaguely, and a clear tear quietly slipped from the corner of her eye.
Jiang Mian didn't hear what she said clearly, and he didn't take his hand away. He gently covered her little hand with his other hand.
………………………………………………………………
The night in Lintian is getting darker, and perhaps only at the edge of Lintian can you truly feel the exhaustion of this city.
Jiang Mian and Ye Taoli, who had regained some consciousness, were walking by the river in Lintian City.
The evening breeze gently patted Ye Taoli's still slightly tipsy face, and she returned to her former coolness.
Ye Taoli didn't mention the embarrassment just now, and neither did Jiang Mian. Actually, Jiang Mian didn't think that was embarrassing. He was used to seeing Ye Taoli's handsome appearance. In fact, it was quite cute to do this occasionally.
"The selection for the Fifth Army will be held in two days. You have to prepare well." Ye Taoli said softly.
"Fifth Army Promotion? What is the Fifth Army Promotion?" Jiang Mian asked.
"There are two recruitment systems in the Yue Clan. One is the ordinary recruitment system. The recruits are usually ordinary soldiers who have only been injected with one generation of water drops. These people generally belong to the non-core members of the Fifth Army except the First Division. Division. The other is the selection of the Five Armed Forces. Every other year, the best students who graduated from military academies across the Yue Clan will gather in Lintian to be recruited by the Five Armed Forces and join the army." Ye Taoli explained.
"And the fact that you ranked 11th in the Jiyue Military Camp last time has spread throughout the Fifth Army. Everyone will probably recruit you, so what you have to prepare is to decide which army of the Five Army you want to join."
"Will Shuangyue also choose me?" Jiang Mian said.
"Of course." Ye Taoli nodded and said.
"Then I'll go to Shuangyue."
Ye Taoli looked at Jiang Mian's delicate face with some surprise. She didn't expect Jiang Mian to answer so firmly.
"Shuang Yue's environment is the most difficult among the Five Armies...and among the Five Armies, Ji Yue is undoubtedly the best choice."
"Do you also think Ji Yue is better than Shuang Yue?" Jiang Mian asked back.
"Of course I think Shuangyue is better, but..."
"That's the end of it." Jiang Mian grinned, "Actually, the harsh environment and so on are secondary in my opinion. Princess, you have to know that I came from the mortal world, so I don't have any sense of belonging to the Moon Clan. . I only know that you picked me up from Gui Po, so I had no choice but to follow you."
"The Five Armies are five very independent individuals. Once they leave, it will be regarded as a betrayal." Ye Taoli looked directly into Jiang Mian's eyes.
"I won't leave." Jiang Mian said solemnly.
"Are you ready to die at any time? Shuangyue is not like Jiyue. Shuangyue is on the front line of the battlefield." Ye Taoli asked softly.
"The price of a bottle of first-generation water drops is 600 monthly coins, while the price of second-generation water drops is 800,000 monthly coins. A child from an ordinary family cannot afford the price of second-generation water drops. The best time to inject second-generation water drops is From zero to twenty years old, in order not to miss the best time for injection, these people must study hard to get into the best military academy in the Yue tribe, because only the best military academy will inject the second-generation water droplets for free for new students upon admission. And some people who can only get into ordinary military academies can only work hard to get into the first place in their majors, or their whole family sells iron and steel to raise the 800,000 yuan so as not to miss the deadline of twenty years old. The excellent soldiers who spent huge sums of money to train are just one today. Two thousand died in one battle."
"Behind the war are countless broken families, Jiang Mian, war is very cruel. You still have a sister in the world. Didn't you say you want to go back before her college entrance examination." Ye Taoli said in a low voice.
"I understand all this, princess." Jiang Mian held his pocket and looked at the sparkling river, where half of the city was reflected.
"I came to the Moon Clan just to fight. I'm not playing house."
There are many souls hidden in my body, the general who regretted his life, and the charcoal seller who finally no longer backed down.
besides……
Jiang Mian's pupils glowed faintly, as if they were plated with gold.
"Princess, it's so strange."
"I seem to be really excited about the expedition. Although I was born in a peaceful era on earth, I feel like I have been away for a long time."
Ye Taoli looked at Jiang Mian's golden eyes in shock. Only now did she realize that she had never understood the man in front of her. There seemed to be some terrifying monster hidden in his thin body.
Like the Fenriats slain by the oldest god, Osseus.
But Fenriat is just a sub-dragon species, and even the king of the sub-dragon species is just a sub-dragon species.
