Autumn wild geese flew obliquely across the sky, osmanthus trees were fragrant, the summer heat finally faded away, and the frost and dew of late autumn were slightly cool.

Early in the morning, when He Yan got up, Mai handed her a pear: "I picked it in the woods next to the martial arts field. I've washed it, try it."

He Yanfang took a bite after grooming, and almost didn't lose his teeth. Seeing her sour squinting, Mai scratched his head embarrassedly: "I'm not very familiar with the wild forest, I should wait a while. Sweet. But now in autumn, there are many wild fruits in the mountains and forests. We can go and pick a few secretly after our daily practice. This sour pear is marinated in sugar and eaten as a rock candy Sydney, it’s delicious!”

The child thought about eating all day long, He Yan said, "There is no sugar here."

Mai was stunned for a moment, before he seemed to react, and said with some disappointment, "Yes."

"Not necessarily," Hong Shan, who was watching them talking, interjected, "Isn't it going to be about merit? Ah He, you and Shitou won the first place in the last battle for the flag, and there may be sugar in the reward given to you today." Maybe there are other delicious food, even rock candy Sydney!"

Mentioning this, Mai suddenly became excited and said, "Yes, Brother Ahe, we are going to discuss the practice tonight. Have you thought about what you want?"

"It's not that I can give what I want," He Yan said with a smile: "The guardhouse is not the capital, and supplies are in short supply."

"Hey, he just wants to enter the forward camp." Hong Shan also took a bite of the pear and said vaguely: "Just this requirement, it will definitely be satisfied."

He Yan smiled. These days, although she was very calm, she was actually a little excited. Once he entered the Nine Banners Camp, the distance between the representative and Xiao Jue was one step closer, and he was able to handle the He Family matter more openly and aboveboard. If she wants to come tonight, she will be able to fulfill her wish. So far, her road to joining the army has been quite smooth.

After all, General Feihong should be scrambled for wherever he goes, and He Yan felt a little jealous.

In the daytime, it is still normal, and he still goes to the martial arts field for training. It's just that at night, everyone is watching the moon together in the open space outside the martial arts field near the foot of the mountain. Liangzhou is no better than the capital, and naturally it is not like the rich and noble families in the past either hold a banquet in their own courtyard or in a restaurant and painting boat, invite colleagues and friends, and fill them with delicious food. Watching the moon in Liangzhou is nothing more than lighting a bonfire, and the recruits sit around in a group. It is rare to eat something good, and maybe there will be rice wine. Companions brag, gossip, drink and eat meat together, look at the moon, and it's over.

After leaving the martial arts field in the afternoon, He Yan went back to the house and changed into clean clothes with someone on his back. The recruits in Liangzhou Weili have strong clothes in spring, summer, autumn and winter. The clothes in spring and autumn can be worn through. There are two pieces in total, one red and one black. The style is simple and resistant to dirt. He Yan changed to a red one and went to Cheng Lisu first.

Cheng Lisu had already been to the martial arts field in the morning and asked He Yan to go to his house in the evening to find him. He Yan guessed that Cheng Lisu was going to give her something to eat, and sure enough, after seeing Cheng Lisu, the young boy handed her a mahogany basket.

The basket is very delicately made, and the pattern of Chang'e flying to the moon is carved on the top. When you open it, you can see that it is a neat and tidy moon cake.

"Brother He, this is for you," Cheng Lisu said in a low voice, "The moon group made by Weifa in Liangzhou is too rough. I will give this to you from someone else."

He Yan said: "Thank you." She was actually not particularly interested in cakes or anything, but if this basket of moon cakes was given to wheat, the child would probably jump for joy.

"You've never eaten this before, have you?" Cheng Lisu flashed a hint of sympathy in his eyes, but also a little smug, "This is not the best, and the cakes at Zuiyulou in Shuojing City are the best in the world. We will return to Beijing together in the future. , I invite you to go to Zuiyulou for dinner, and tell you secretly," Cheng Lisu said as if offering a treasure: "My uncle also likes the food in Zuiyulou."

He Yan thought that Cheng Lisu, like He Yunsheng, had unconditional and mindless admiration for Xiao Jue. It seems that with Xiao Jue's approval, it will not be much worse.

But well, to be honest, Xiao Jue is really not bad.

After thanking Cheng Lisu for his autumn gift, it was getting dark, and He Yan took this basket of snacks and went out the door. At this moment, a bonfire has been lit in the field at the foot of the mountain. The bonfire was bright, and many recruits had arrived, sitting on the ground near the bonfire. It is said that each recruit can receive meat patties and oranges. There were also wooden branches set up near the bonfire, with rabbits and fish strung on them, which seemed to be hunted on Baiyue Mountain.

It seems that there is meat to eat today.

He Yan was in a very good mood, even tossing the baskets one after the other, the aroma of roasted game lingered nearby, making people feel hungry. She also saw a large wine jar near each bonfire. The wine should not be good wine, and the taste is a bit pungent, but at this time, it is only comfortable to drink strong wine.

She came a little late, so she went to find wheat and the others. When passing by other recruits, they all looked at her with strange expressions.

She was probably trying to guess what good things she could get today.

He Yan walked forward happily, and when he walked to a place near the foot of the mountain, he saw Mai and the others. Wheat and the others were surrounded by a bonfire, and He Yan waved to him from a distance and called, "Wheat!"

Hearing the voice, the young man turned his head to look over, but did not respond to her as enthusiastically as usual, and seemed a little hesitant. He Yan took a closer look and saw that besides Hong Shan and Shi Shi, Jiang Jiao, Wang Ba and Huang Xiong were also coming. The three gathered around, He Yan put down the snack basket in his hand, sat down with his legs crossed, opened the lid of the basket, and said with a smile, "See what goodies I brought you? Don't be too grateful."

She picked up a delicate moon ball and handed it to Mai. This child is used to being greedy, so she said, "Here!"

Mai was stunned for a moment, then slowly reached out to take it, pursed his lips, but didn't say anything he wanted to say. He Yan said to the others, "Take what you want to eat yourself."

No one answered her words.

He Yan raised his head, and everyone stared at him, looking at her strangely. Even the carefree Hong Shan was silent. He Yan asked suspiciously: "What's wrong? Why do you guys look like you've seen a ghost, what happened?"

Hong Shan turned his head away, a sympathy flashed in Jiang Jiao's eyes, and he said, "He Yan, don't be sad."

"What am I sad about?" He Yan was confused.

The atmosphere was suffocating again, He Yan looked at Huang Xiong, Huang Xiong looked away and rubbed the Buddha beads on his chest, as if the world had nothing to do with me. On the other hand, Wang Ba couldn't bear it any longer, and said, "...Well, even if you didn't enter the forward camp, don't be too sad, it's a human effort."

He Yan breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I thought it was something, why didn't I enter the forward camp, I..." Her words stopped abruptly, and then she looked at the crowd, everyone couldn't bear it, she moved her lips, I heard my own voice, as if floating in the air, "Really didn't enter?"

"When you were away, the head coach Shen went over there, and Lei Hou entered the forward camp. I didn't... didn't mention you." Wheat carefully considered his words.

"Did I miss it?" He Yan still had a bit of luck in his heart, "Maybe it's because I didn't come just now."

"I asked the head coach for you," Shitou said softly, "We didn't enter the forward camp this time around for the flag. Among the others, except for others, that Lei Hou was lucky enough to enter."

He Yan fell silent.

Everyone was staring at her nervously. It was obvious to all that He Yan wanted to enter the forward camp. When he first came to Liangzhou, he was barely able to run under heavy load. At that time, this young man was forced to carry it in order to enter the forward camp. He was so good at fighting for the flag that he won the first place, not to mention that he couldn't understand it, even in the eyes of the people around him, he felt incomprehensible.

"It's okay, we're not angry," Hong Shan comforted her. "Isn't it just a vanguard battalion? We don't care, let's go to another battalion, an infantry battalion, a cavalry battalion? If you grow a thousand miles of horses, you have to be appreciated by Bole, they don't want you, they have no vision!"

"Not bad." Jiang Jiao also felt sorry for her. A person like He Yan as an opponent is far more convincing than Lei Hou's opponent, "You are so powerful, fire sees real gold, and people will always know in the future."

Everyone was talking about comforting, but seeing that the young man, who had always been open-minded, lowered his head and said nothing for the first time, with slump and frustration written all over his body, and gradually calmed down.

Hong Shan poked Mimi's arm and gestured for Mimi to say a few words. Wheat was racking his brains and was about to speak when He Yan suddenly stood up and walked out without saying a word.

"Hey, hey, where are you going?" Huang Xiong grabbed her.

The young man said bitterly: "I went to Xiao Jue to ask clearly, why did you choose Leihou not me? What am I inferior to Leihou? There is no name for me in the forward camp!"

Hong Shan was startled, but he didn't expect He Yan to call the Governor's name angrily, so he hurriedly stopped He Yan's movements: "You can't be so impulsive! Going to Governor Xiao now will only make the Governor unhappy, and it will be even more unpleasant in the future. Maybe to the striker camp."

"Yeah," Wheat persuaded clumsily, "Brother Ahe, Dudu Xu is deliberately keeping you and wants you to do something else, such as going to another camp. You are so powerful, there is no reason not to choose. yours!"

"I'm already powerful," He Yan's face turned blue with anger, "Let Xiao Jue stand in front of me, we fight, I don't think he can beat me!"

Jiang Jiao hurriedly covered He Yan's mouth, and he said all these words, which showed that he was really angry.

They were afraid that she would find Xiao Jue in trouble, so they pulled her back to the original position and sat down. Huang Xiong said: "Young people, don't be so impatient, you can stay in the green hills without worrying about no firewood. He is now the governor, and you are a recruit. How can you speak equally? When you become an official and become a general in the future, let's look at him again!"

"It will take ten or eight years to wait," Wang Ba muttered, "I may not be able to become one."

Jiang Jiao also said: "This Governor Xiao is also true, it is clear that we are the first, Lei Hou is still He Yan's defeated general, how could he abandon He Yan and choose Lei Hou?"

"I heard," Wang Ba thought for a while, "that Lei Hou seems to have something to do with a teacher here, maybe a relative, maybe through the back door. I think these nobles are powerful and powerful, so I don't care about being inferior. people."

Mai couldn't help but say, "Dudu Xiao is not that kind of person! There must be some misunderstanding in this!"

Wang Ba gave him a white look: "Which side are you from?"

Mai Nuonuo stopped talking.

"Everyone," He Yan endured his anger, "I have a terrible headache, can you please let me be quiet for a while?"

The crowd fell silent immediately.

The bonfire danced in front of him, and the night reflected by the flames turned red. He Yan couldn't understand anyway, why Xiao Jue ordered Leihou to enter the forward camp.

She believed that she had been blind for some time, but it was far worse than Xiao Jue's blindness. Could it be that she did not perform well in Liangzhou Wei? It can't be better, doesn't she fight too much for the flag? There is no other side left for others. Even the formation that is difficult for ordinary recruits to solve has been broken. With such a talent, Xiao Jue is actually unmoved?

She wants to take back the words that Xiao Jue is not bad!

He Yan only felt that his liver was hurting with anger, but he never thought that this breath was not the last. After another moment, President Shen came over.

In front of everyone's eyes, he ordered a small box to come over, and only said to everyone: "You are all here, it just so happens that this time you won the first place in the competition for the flag. Tonight is also the Mid-Autumn Festival. This is your lucky draw."

Wheat opened the box in the past, but saw a small jar of wine and a few ingots of silver inside.

"This is the Eighteen Immortals, and such a small altar is worth a hundred taels," Chief Shen said with satisfaction: "You can drink it tonight, don't be greedy for the cup."

"Eighteen Immortals," Wang Ba smacked his lips, "I didn't expect to be able to drink Eighteen Immortals here, this life is worth it!"

In an instant, he forgot who was scolding "powerful and powerful people" just now.

Huang Xiong also swallowed his saliva. They are all heroes, and they love wine, and it is a precious wine. Even if he was young and didn't like alcohol, he grabbed a piece of silver and took a bite in his hand.

This lottery is not big, but it is by no means small. Amidst the joy, He Yan was particularly unique.

She just glanced at the box, and suddenly let out a smirk and said, "It seems that our governor is not doing well."

Shen Han was stunned.

"I'm so poor." The young man didn't even look at him, took a branch to fiddle with the firewood in the fire, lowered his head and said to himself, the yin and yang in his words can be heard by anyone.

Hong Shan covered her mouth and smiled apologetically to Shen Han: "This brother is drunk, drunk... nonsense, the head coach is not as knowledgeable as a child."

Shen Han left inexplicably.

After Shen Han left, He Yan looked at the box on the ground and couldn't help sneering: "This thing is for beggars."

"Brother, this is a good thing." Huang Xiong said patiently: "You are angering."

He Yan was holding the fire and didn't want to speak.

Huang Xiong sat down beside her, wrapped his arms around her shoulders, looked at the flames dancing in front of him, and said solemnly, "Young man, don't be discouraged, it's just a hurdle, look at me," he pointed to himself, "You just don't have a chance to enter the striker camp now. When I was, I didn't have anything."

He was not willing to touch the altar of the Eighteen Immortals, so he only poured two large bowls of yellow wine from the jar next to him, one for He Yan and one for himself. He took a sip and said, "What a strong wine!"

Seeing that He Yan didn't speak, he pointed to the bead on his neck and said, "This is my mother's."

The beads were dark and shimmering with warm light, which was extremely incommensurate with his sturdy physique, but Huang Xiong had never seen them take them. He pointed to the knife beside him again: "This knife killed nineteen people."

These words were a little scary, and for a while, even Wang Ba and several others looked at him. He Yan's eyes moved slightly, looking at her.

Seeing that she finally had a reaction, Huang Xiong said angrily: "I was as old as you back then. Our family has a book of swords, handed down from our ancestors. After someone learned about it, they came to buy it, but my father refused to sell it."

"At that time, I went out to cool off with my companions. After returning, our family was killed by people. The property was all in the house, and the book of swords was missing."

Wheat exclaimed: "This is..."

"Someone killed my Huang family for the sake of the sword." Huang Xiong said here, his expression was very calm, I don't know if it was because time passed too long or because of something else. He said: "I reported it to the official, but the local officials couldn't handle the matter at all, so I personally investigated, scattered my family's wealth, carried a knife for thousands of miles, and went away in search of the thieves. It took me three years to find where they were. "

"I'm afraid that I won't find revenge, and I'll take my own life. I'm not afraid of death, but I just don't want to die in vain. I'm the only one left in the Huang family. When I die, no one will seek justice for them."

"So I pretended to be a long-term coolie and went to the mansion. I observed the terrain and their usual habits during the day, and practiced the swordsmanship hard at night. For a year and a half, I found an opportunity, one night, for the Our Huang family got revenge."

This story is thrilling, but he tells it lightly, and the danger in it can be imagined, but seeing the bald man's eyes only calm, he looked at He Yan and said, "It is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years. I tried my life to beg for justice with them, but in the end it was nothing but a fish and a net, but you see now, the enemy is dead, I'm still alive, I can still drink and eat meat with you here, you say, who wins?"

He wanted to use his own business to tell He Yan that he should not be impatient.

He Yan smiled and was about to speak, but saw Jiang Jiao stretch out his hand, pour himself a bowl of yellow wine, and take a big gulp. He is not as good at drinking as Huang Xiong. Jiuzhe blurted out: "That is, when no one is sad, what are you? Look at me, the young master of the martial arts hall, it sounds good, I also have a fiancée, I was supposed to marry her this year, but she died."

Wheat's eyes widened and he was about to ask a question, but after being pounded by a stone, he calmed down.

"Do you know how she died?" Jiang Jiao's eyes were a little red, and he said in a sullen voice: "She died of love. She liked others, and she refused to marry me, so she died of love with that scholar! You said, Are you worse than me?"

No wonder Jiang Jiao was so good-looking and skilled, why did he join the army? I was afraid that after this incident, he was disheartened, so he simply stayed away from his hometown, out of sight.

Everyone looked at Wang Ba, who was inexplicable, and immediately said with shame and anger: "What are you looking at me for? I don't have much of a story! You all have something wrong? Are you talking about this shit? Who are you here to be worse off?"

Wang Ba: I am a male classmate without a story.

Ten thousand shift benefits are over, and tomorrow will start to resume one shift a day, I really don't have a drop. . . .
