"If you don't want to." Song Yu tried his best to smile and not look so nervous, "We can also go by ourselves."
For the first time, Song Yu didn't have much confidence and didn't even dare to look at Xie Nanshi.
"Can."
Jie Nanshi's voice is like a clear spring washing stones, which is very pleasant to the ears. Song Yu was stunned for a moment, and immediately put a piece of vegetarian meat on the other party. His joy could not be suppressed at all: "What about the matter of Guixu? Are you too accommodating to me? Let me tell you now. In fact, we can't Can I go directly to Guixu? Will that make me look hypocritical?"
"It's not hypocritical." Xie Nanshi looked at the piece of vegetarian meat in the bowl unmoved, "But joining the army is not just for you."
Song Yu was somewhat interested now and looked at Xie Nanshi curiously, not understanding any reason why he would take the initiative to slow down his trip.
When Xie Nanshi saw Song Yu looking at him with bright eyes, he couldn't help but start teasing him, and slowly drank the porridge without talking.
Song Yu looked at Xie Nanshi in disbelief: "Little Taoist Priest, you actually learned badly?"
Xie Nanshi couldn't laugh or cry for a moment: "Then who did I learn this from?"
"Of course it's me." Song Yu responded happily.
Jie Nanshi was speechless for a moment, looking at Song Yu's expectant eyes, and finally said slowly: "Even though I spent most of my time in practicing to eliminate evil spirits and looking for clues in my last life, I also heard about the chaos in the four cities and the countless casualties. , the number of casualties even exceeds the casualties caused by ghosts and beasts."
Song Yu was stunned and looked at Jie Nanshi with some surprise.
"Alien ghosts and beasts are scary, but human hearts..." Xie Nanshi looked out the window, the sunlight outside was just right: "My father has taught me since I was a child that it is my duty to protect the common people. I don't have the ability to end the war, but I still hope It can play a small role in this battle."
He has been searching for his father for more than ten years in total, and he is not short of the battle with the White Walker King. When Xie Nanshi thought of this strange thing, his expression moved slightly, and even became a little more lively: "Gui Xu is the largest gap from another world to this world. The incident at the Demon Suppression Pass also proves that what we obtained earlier The intelligence may not be accurate. But if he can accompany the army to Baizhao and subdue the White Walker King, he must know more about Guixu than we do."
Xie Nanshi has not forgotten the story of his previous life. Now it seems that what Song Yu killed in the previous life was probably just the ghost king's clone. But things are different now. Due to the changes in Tianyong City, Lin heard the news that he went to the battlefield to fight with Song Chengwei in person. This was obviously not a situation that the White Walker King's clone could handle.
Although Xie Nanshi's cultivation level is high, he has now seen others and others, so relying on the strength of everyone is not something that is difficult for him to accept. He also understands that haste makes waste.
What's more, Xie Nanshi believed that with him here, the damage of the war would be smaller. Bai Zhaocheng has already begun to drive away strange beasts and ghosts, so his participation in the war is also a way to eliminate demons and defend the law, which does not violate his principles.
one stone two bird. Xie Nanshi was very firm in his decision and did not feel that there was any compromise.
Song Yu's face was still filled with emotion. He had only seen such a character in books. There were similar settings in other games, but none of them were as shocking as the friend Xie Nanshi standing "alive" in front of him. Put the world first and your own thoughts second. Easier said than done.
But imagine that Xie Nanshi traveled all the way, following him to search for strange ghosts in Qinghe Town, helping Yongxi pacify the beasts, going to Jinyan to kill the strange beasts in the water, and going to Tianyong to kill the strange beasts in the Bai Zhao Embassy...
There are also near-death situations. Although he has been looking for the person he is looking for, he still does his best to protect the stability of this world. This is Xie Nanshi, the heir to Jiange who regards the common people as his own responsibility.
Song Yu thought about it for a few times, and when he heard the last word, he sighed and said: "What you said makes sense! Lin Ting has already led a group of troops to go on an expedition. This time, my cheap father wants to lead the expedition himself. There will definitely be recruitment in this city. We'll change our clothes and go answer the call later."
Xie Nanshi didn't answer. He knew that Song Yu must have something to say.
As expected, Song Yu finished his breakfast in a hurry and found two human skin masks from the package: "It's a pity that the little Taoist priest needs to cover up his appearance."
Xie Nanshi took the human skin mask and held it in his hand. It felt cool and greasy, but he didn't feel anything special. However, before his eyes he saw Song Yu put the human skin mask on his face. Not only his appearance, but also his height and clothes had changed. He was a little surprised because of his experience.
Song Yu was also very happy. Although I basically didn’t do any serious plot in this game, I did a lot of side missions and got a bunch of weird props. So much so that in the second episode, he has been driven by the timeline and struggled to survive in the main line, but he was able to survive with the props he saved in the first episode.
Although the modeling effect of the human skin mask has a fixed gender, the content is random. Song Yu looked at the bronze mirror in the inn and realized that he had become an ordinary boy of about eighteen or nineteen years old. It felt quite fresh. He looked at Jie Nanshi: "Why, little Taoist priest, are you reluctant to part with me?"
"You will leave first while I go find the waiter to check out." Xie Nanshi explained, "Both of us have changed, who will pay for the rent?"
"That makes sense. Then I'll wait for you at the well behind the inn." Song Yu also began to wonder whether he and Song Chengwei had broken up, and whether Du Anchen was still secretly watching and turned around to find Song Chengwei took off his vest? Although he still has plenty of money on hand now, he will have to move forward with the army in the future and will not be able to kill monsters, so he still has to spend it wisely.
Song Yu didn't sit by the well for long when he saw a slightly thin young man also coming to the well, with a parrot squatting on his shoulder.
Needless to say, this is Xie Nanshi's disguise. Seeing that the temperament of a noble Taoist was brought to the same level as his own, Song Yu actually felt a little happy inside. And the parrot was Yuan Fang who had been with the two of them all the way.
After all, they are animals, and they may be more sensitive to smells or something. Although Song Yu's appearance has changed, Yuan Fang still rushed towards Song Yu. His attitude could not be said to be disgusting or affectionate.
Song Yu couldn't help but ruffle two of the parrot's beautiful feathers: "It's been hard to keep you so fat for a while, but it won't be convenient to take you with me later. You go back to Yuan Fang, and we will take you back in the future."
Yuan Fang's little eyes were obviously no bigger than beans, but they seemed to roll their eyes before spreading their wings and flying away. When Song Yu remembers to pick it up, the world will probably be destroyed. If it weren't for the fact that it was inconvenient for the two of them to carry a bird with them in their next plan, it wouldn't have been driven away so easily.
Song Yu waved his hand and followed Jie Nanshi to the street.
As Song Yu expected, the city began recruiting troops. The response was even better than Song Dynasty expected. There was a long queue at the place where the army was being recruited. The people who came to apply for the army looked relaxed and there was no trace of sadness on their faces as they were about to go to the front line.
Only then did Song Yu notice that compared to the way the shop doors on both sides of the street were closed when he returned to Tianyong yesterday, today's Tianyong City seemed to have instantly restored its former prosperity. From here they could hear the shouts at the other end of the street.
Song Yu was in a daze.
"This is all because of your father." Xie Nanshi said softly.
Song Yu nodded, and when he lowered his eyes, he couldn't tell whether he just listened to a story, or whether he was also vaguely moved in his heart.
The queue for recruiting soldiers was very long, and they had to wait for a long time, but no one was seen retreating, and most of them were very motivated to fight. When Song Yu and Xie Nanshi came to the end, there was a fat man in brocade clothes in front of them. He smiled with a friendly look, and it was easy to communicate with him at first glance. Song Yu patted the other party's shoulder: "Brother, are you here to enlist in the army too?"
Although the little fat man wondered why anyone would ask such a question even though he was already standing in the team, he still answered in a good-tempered manner: "Of course."
Song Yu looked at the long team curiously: "Since we are going on an expedition, why don't everyone seem scared, but rather excited?"
"Don't you know who the coach is this time?" The little fat man looked at Song Yu in shock, as if he didn't understand why he asked such a question: "This is our city lord's personal expedition! What danger can there be? Moreover, it is possible to get close contact with the Lord of the City. How could you not be excited about such a rare opportunity!"
Unexpectedly, he could see fans chasing stars in the game, and Song Yu fell silent for a moment.
This little fat man is obviously also a talker. He didn't mind seeing Song Yu's silence, and still said his own with a smile: "Aren't the two little brothers from the main city?"
Although Song Yu was puzzled, he still asked: "How do you know?"
The little fat man laughed and said: "In Tianyong, especially in the main city, who doesn't admire the city lord? If we are lucky enough to be called this time, we will tell you about our city lord's great achievements!"
Song Yu laughed. Seeing that the little fat man was plump and cute, he said a few more words: "Brother, he has good eyesight, but no matter how strong he is, he is only one person. The sword has no eyes on the battlefield, and any accident may happen, or... …”
The little fat man waved his hand and interrupted Song Yu's words: "I am willing to die for the city lord."
Song Yu silently raised his thumb and ended this nonsensical conversation. But I have to say, this setting is quite interesting. During the city battle, Bai Zhao had the White Walkers' bonus, but Tian Yong had the people's will.
This Tianyong's conscription did not call for everyone. First of all, the elderly over fifty years old and children under sixteen years old were excluded. Those in the prime of life also need to be registered in the household register. Only those who are sent to the household registration department to confirm that they are not the only young people in the family or the only young laborer in the family can enlist in the army.
However, it is much easier for those who have a foundation in spiritual practice or other specialties to register in the military register. Those who have sects will give them sect tokens, and those who don't will have people from the recruiting office test their abilities. As long as they are not too weak, they can be registered in the army.
Such a setting made Song Yu sigh a sigh of relief - although the props allowed him to change his appearance due to Xie Nanshi, they could not create a household registration out of thin air.
