, wonderful and free of pop-ups! Two years later...
Mojia City is the Yulan Empire's first line of defense against Nanteng's invasion. The entire city is made of gray boulders. Totally militarized management. The Fourth Legion, one of the eight legions of the empire, is stationed here.
Facing Mojia City is Pange City of Nanteng Empire. There is a fifty-mile buffer zone in the middle.
Two years ago, Shui Hongyu entered the Fourth Legion according to the original plan. Because of his strength as a fifth-level fighter, he directly became the captain of a twelve-man team. Yun Tai, who goes by the pseudonym of Bucket, also sneaked into the army as a personal servant. This was discussed by several adults. They believed that the safest place for the army was. No matter which country among the three empires, the Illuminati Cult was allowed to be contaminated or infiltrated. One was the school, and the other was the army. Compared with schools, the safety factor of the military is much higher. As for how to solve the problem of not meeting the age limit? What's the deal? Yun Tai is unknown.
A year ago, the struggle for the position of head of the East Rock City Guangming Sect branch came to an end. Because they received the news early and had the help of the Shui family, the Guangming Sect branch in Chengdu got a piece of the pie from this incident, and the new white-clothed bishop of Dongshi City was also replaced by the Shuishi sect.
At the same time, Yun Tai's kidnapping and subsequent disappearance were instigated by someone who was interested, and the Pharmacist Guild of East Rock City identified it as a provocation from the Guangming Sect. Only then did he pass the pharmacist exam, but he was kidnapped in the blink of an eye, and his whereabouts are still unknown. Isn't this a slap in the face to Hong Guoguo? Unexpectedly, the Illuminati Church was bombed directly, making them embarrassed even if they wanted to launch an attack. The target can only be turned to another major suspect, the Fah family. True or false is not important, this is a matter of attitude. If the Pharmacist Guild does nothing regarding Yun Tai's matter, wouldn't it chill the hearts of other pharmacists in the guild? Moreover, in their view, rather than bargaining with the Guangming Sect, the Fah family, which is not looked down upon by the Pharmacist Guild, can better demonstrate the Pharmacist Guild's strength. Therefore, without any need for words, with the tacit understanding of several major forces, all the interests of the Fahe family at the foot of the Warcraft Forest Mountain were divided up in an instant.
After the dust settled, Yun Tai should be able to go home. But Shui Hongyu's mother asked Yun Tai to stay with Shui Hongyu for a while longer. In her opinion, and even in the eyes of the entire Shui family, Yun Tai could be said to be Shui Hongyu's talisman. Even though she can no longer cast magic or refine elixirs, her medical skills and knowledge of herbal medicines can still save Shui Hongyu's life at critical moments. Yun Tai nodded in agreement without hesitation. Since they met, the Shui family has spared no effort to help the Sang family. Yun Tai can feel their sincerity. She is lucky to have such relatives. Although Shui Wanna was reluctant to part with her, she couldn't say no to her. She could only tell Shui Hongyu over and over again to take good care of her sister.
"Where's the bucket?" After the routine training every morning, Shui Hongyu didn't see his little cousin and could only ask his subordinates helplessly. Because the border between the two countries has been relatively peaceful in the past two years, and there has been no war, Shui Hongyu can only rely on his own strength to climb up step by step. Now he has reluctantly become a deputy captain, with hundreds of soldiers under his command. Shui Hongyu was anxious about this. He was looking forward to war, because only by relying on military exploits would he have the opportunity to be promoted quickly and honor his ancestors, although he knew that such an idea was wrong. Just like what Yun Tai said, no ordinary person would want war, but he shoulders the expectations of the whole family...
"Captain, do you want a bucket? I'll go to the kitchen to get it for you." The answer was obviously a newcomer.
"Lieutenant returning to school, Bucket left the camp early in the morning and said he was going to the market. Don't worry, I stuffed two pieces of bread into his hand. He won't be hungry." A veteran replied with a smile.
The other two veterans laughed and pulled the newcomer aside for re-education.
Anyone who has known Shui Hongyu for a long time will know that he is accompanied by a personal servant, Shui Tong, who has a rough life experience but is super idle. Serving tea and water, he had never seen him do the same thing as a servant. He was not seen all day long. I heard that his favorite thing to do was to collect corpses for others and sew the fragmented corpses back together. Such a weird little boy, who in their right mind would keep him by their side? But Captain Shui not only didn't do that, but instead made people feel like an old woman. Sometimes she was worried that Bucket was too busy and tired, and sometimes she was worried that he was too focused and forgot to eat. Later I found out that the bucket was a distant relative of Shui Xiaowei. My parents died in the border battle, and their bodies were not found. That's why this child is so enthusiastic, hoping that the soldiers who died in the battle will not go to another world in pieces. When they heard such words for the first time, Shui Hongyu's men were so moved that their eyes turned red. Therefore, they usually take good care of the buckets. Shui Hongyu was naturally very happy with this result.
Shui Hongyu rubbed his forehead: "He really likes shopping in the market." Sure enough, it is a woman's nature to love shopping, no matter what age group she is.
When tensions between the two countries were not tense, small markets often appeared in the fifty-mile buffer zone, where vendors from the two cities would set up stalls to sell gadgets from their own countries. The things are novel, but the price is not high. At the same time, compared to the big merchants who go deep into the other party's territory, these small traders are much lower in terms of cost and risk. Therefore, a very strange phenomenon occurred between the two cities. When a war breaks out, you can fight to the death without leaving any hand behind. When there is no war, even if soldiers from both sides meet in the market, although they cannot call each other brothers, they will not immediately draw swords against each other. Not using force seems to have become an unwritten rule at the buffer zone market. This rule, which outsiders cannot believe, not only appeared, but was also implemented subtly and well by everyone. Of course, it was not that no one robbed and made trouble at first, but after these people were subdued, they all agreed tacitly that the other party would take custody of them according to their nationality. Whether there was a fair trial or not, no one knows, but what is certain is that no one has ever seen those troublemakers again, not one of them! After a few times, no one who is not afraid of death would want to challenge this rule.
Therefore, after knowing that his little cousin went to the market, Shui Hongyu was not too worried about her safety.
"Captain Lieutenant, we don't usually have much entertainment here. The only fun thing is the market that only appears once every ten years. Shuitong is the most playful at this age, and the camp usually doesn't allow idlers to come and go at will. Just..." Hearing that Shui Hongyu's words seemed to contain a little bit of dissatisfaction, a veteran stepped forward to excuse Yun Tai, relying on his age advantage.
"Lao Ge, I just sighed and didn't mean to blame him. If you continue like this, you will spoil this kid." Shui Hongyu shook his head.
"You haven't been spoiled yet." Lao Ge replied with a silly smile.
"Report, Lieutenant Commander summoned all captains and lieutenants to go to the conference room immediately. Captain Mo Xi asked Vice Captain Shui and Vice Lieutenant Qian to be on standby outside the tent at any time." The signal corpsman came to inform.
Shui Hongyu was stunned for a moment: "I know, go right away." Then he turned around and ordered, "Old Ge, get the bucket back right away!"
"Yes!" Lao Ge looked up at the cloudless sky and sighed: "It's only been a few years of peace. Is there going to be another war?"
A dark cloud drifted from the southwest corner, covering most of the sky above Mojia City. The sky immediately became gloomy.
