"Sir, wait a moment, you will know later."

After Xiao Yi picked up the bowl, he didn't stop at all and answered to Hu Yunqing while eating.

It doesn't affect his cooking speed at all. Xiao Yi has been known to have a big appetite since he joined the Jinyi Guard.

Qianqian seemed to know something and whispered in Zhao Shuangshuang's ear. After speaking, the two of them started to cover their mouths and started laughing.

Only Hu Yunqing didn't know what happened and continued to eat with a question mark on his face.

The guard who left the lobby came outside Juan's house and knocked on the door hurriedly.

"What's wrong?"

After knocking for a long time, Juan opened the door from inside the house, looked at the guard at the door and asked.

"Sir, I want you to go to the lobby. Get dressed and go there!"

The guard looked at Juan, knowing Juan's identity, but he was not afraid at all. Seeing that the other person was still sleeping in, he said to him with some displeasure.

"Hey, what's your attitude?"

Listening to the guard's tone, Juan was also very dissatisfied. The other party was just a small guard in the mansion, and he dared to talk to him like this.

"Who do you think you are! I'm just related to you. My duty is to obey your orders and protect your safety. I have no obligations to you!"

These guards in Hu Mansion are also the best in Dongchang. They all have their own arrogance and they only respect people who are stronger than them.

"you."

"Stop talking nonsense and hurry up!"

After finishing speaking, the guard didn't give Juan a chance to continue speaking, and turned around and left the door. Heading towards the gate of Hu Mansion.

When Xiao Yi finished his meal, he didn't know what Xiao Yi wanted to do. After putting down his chopsticks, he looked at Xiao Yi with doubts in his eyes.

At this time, Xiao Yi was also a little puzzled. It stands to reason that if he asked someone to call him, even if Huan was really sleeping, he should have come long ago.

"Brother Yunqing!"

Just when Xiao Yi was still confused, Juan appeared at the door and said to Hu Yunqing.

"Cowboy!"

Hu Yunqing, who was used to calling Juan by his nickname, showed joy on his face when he saw Juan coming. He said happily, then stood up and hugged him.

"Boy, your body is getting more energetic and your arms are stronger."

Hu Yunqing squeezed Juan's shoulders with his hands and found that the latter's shoulders were full of muscles. He nodded with a smile and said.

"This is all thanks to Brother Xiao."

With a smile on his face, Juan looked at Xiao and said to Hu Yunqing.

"oh?"

After hearing what Juan said, Hu Yunqing was a little surprised, and his eyes fell on Xiao Yide again.

"Sir, the truth is this. Before you left the capital to go to Gansu, you mentioned to me that you would teach the cowherd boy martial arts. After you left, I started teaching him martial arts... Last night I took He returned to the capital."

Xiao Yi also told the whole story, exactly as it was.

"Well, you did a good job."

Seeing the transformation of the cowherd boy, Hu Yunqing was also happy from the bottom of his heart. With him by his side, his future achievements would not be much worse.

"Brother Yun Qing, I grew up without a father or a mother, and the old village chief got me the cowherd boy, so I gave myself a new name. I will be called Juan from now on."

Hearing Hu Yunqing talk about the cowherd boy, Huan felt very uncomfortable and quickly corrected his name to Hu Yunqing.

"Ah! Juan, Juan. Well, that's a good name."

Hearing that Cowherd Boy had changed his name, he was surprised when he saw Juan's serious expression. Finally, he thought that it was normal. Cowherd Boy's name was also ugly, and there was nothing wrong with his surname being Hu.

He also regarded Juan as his younger brother in his heart.

"Sir, hundreds of households. Everyone is already in the front yard."

The guard who had just left entered the lobby and said.

"Who? Who else?"

Seeing that someone else was coming, Hu Yunqing thought it was only Juan, so he looked at Xiao Yi and asked.

"Sir, why don't you come out with me and take a look?"

Xiao Yi continued to remain mysterious and dragged Hu Yunqing to the front yard with Juan.

As soon as I arrived in the yard, I found that there were eleven teenagers of seventeen or eighteen years old standing neatly in the yard, all of them in high spirits.

"Juan, step in quickly!"

Xiao Yi looked at Hu Yunqing who was still standing next to him, kicked him from the side and said.

Juan, who was kicked, entered the team with a smile.

"Sir, after the screening, a total of twelve people have stood out. Currently, no one has a name, please give me a name!"

"Please give me a name, sir!"

Most of them are orphans, and some are refugees whose families were destroyed due to the disaster. Now that they have started over, they must have new names.

"Okay, forget about the names. You can think of it yourself after you go back. There are exactly twelve of you. I will give each of you a code name."

Seeing twelve people saluting him respectfully, Hu Yunqing finally felt why so many people dreamed of becoming a general.

"Just sort them according to the twelve zodiac signs. Juan, your codename is Ugly Ox."

Hu Yunqing thought of the twelve zodiac signs and his eyes fell on Juan, and thought that his name was previously called Cowherd Boy, so he was given the title of Ugly Cow.

"Huh? Ugly cow!"

After hearing this, Juan exclaimed. He was considered to be good-looking, but his title was Ugly Cow. This title would stick with him for the rest of his life. How could he continue to behave like this in the future?

I thought I was getting rid of the cowherd boy's name, but I didn't expect that an ugly cow would press on me again.

"Ugly Cow, please don't be rude when giving me a name!"

Xiao Yi looked at Huan and was still not satisfied. In the past, only the most powerful people in Dongchang could get the title, and no one else had this qualification.

On the contrary, when he arrived at Juan's place, he was still not satisfied, and his tone was still unhappy.

"Thank you, sir!"

Hu Yunqing then gave them all the code names in order. I also made a mental note of everyone’s appearance.

Xiao Yi was also afraid of forgetting, so he quickly asked someone to count them.

"In the coming days, Xiao Baihu next to me will give you martial arts skills. You will have more important missions in the future, if one of you unfortunately dies."

After it was almost done, Hu Yunqing came to the front of everyone and said.

When it came to death, everyone focused their attention and listened carefully to Hu Yunqing's next words.

"After you die, I will find your successor, or if you fail to complete the tasks I told you, you will be replaced by someone coming up from below."

After listening to what Hu Yunqing said, everyone was shocked. They thought that after passing the exam, they would be able to live and feed well in the future, but they didn't expect that they would still be eliminated.
