Most of the rocks here are white-gray shale, but there is enough rain and it is very hot and humid most of the year, so the vegetation is extremely dense, and there are also many birds, animals and insects. The water flows wash away the rotten branches and leaves, and the birds and animals

The corpses of insects and the clear spring water flowing from the white shale slowly turned black in the mountains and forests.

It is hot and humid, and there is no strong wind all year round, so dense fog naturally forms.

White mountains, black water, thick fog, this is the Dragon Snake Mountain Range.

In addition to these, there are also wars in the two huge mountains intertwined like a dragon and a snake that stretch across the easternmost territory of the huge empire.

It was only the war that made many people stay and garrison among the white mountains and black waters that were not suitable for human survival at all.

In a mist-filled valley in the white mountains and black waters, two sergeants were guarding.

One of the sergeants huddled in the middle of a large tree with lush branches and thorns, wrapped in a grass blanket and camouflaged with some branches and leaves.

Another sergeant was standing among some rocks, his body coated with stone powder.

The two sergeants were motionless. Even if they were dozens of steps away, it would be difficult to see the two men without careful observation.

Suddenly, the sergeant on the tree moved silently, and put one hand behind his back. In his hand was a small brass mirror, which he swung towards the valley.

A figure slowly appeared in the light mist, gradually becoming clearer. It stepped on the land of white mountains and black water, trampled on the dead branches on the stone road, and made a sound that was particularly clear and sharp in the ears of the two sergeants.

This is a pedestrian who wears a green suit on the inside and black cloth on the outside. The collar, sleeves and neck are tied tightly with thin vines, and his face is also wrapped tightly in black cloth, leaving only his eyes exposed.

With a heavy salute.

It seems that he is not familiar with this mountain forest, or is curious, because the person who came here does not walk very fast.

There were still more than fifty steps away from the guard of the two sergeants. The sergeant among the rocks moved. He took a step, with a clang, drew out the long black knife on his back, and asked in a deep voice: "Who is this?"

!”

The sergeant on the tree not far away remained motionless and silent.

"call…"

The pedestrian walking in the light mist of the white mountain, black water, was a little surprised, but he was not frightened. Instead, he exhaled a breath, stopped, looked at the rock-like sergeant, and said: "But the dragon, snake, and sheep's tip

Tianshan Patrol Army?"

"Identity!" the sergeant said sternly, still alert and without any unnecessary words.

"Lin Xi, come and serve as patrol officer."

The visitor spoke calmly and pulled off the thick black gauze covering his face, revealing a young, clean, slightly sweaty face with a slight smile.

The sergeant holding a black frontier sword saw the face of the visitor exposed under the black cloth, and his eyes suddenly flashed with a look of disbelief. However, his muscles were still tense, as if he could explode with all his strength at any time, and he still did not say any nonsense:

"Password! White Dragon!"

"Tiecheng." The young man wiped the sweat from his face and said the word seriously.

The sergeant holding the black sword was relaxed.

At this moment, the misty mountain forest behind him surged like a tide. In an instant, Yunqin soldiers covered in black leather armor and faces covered with black cloth came out at extremely fast speeds and arrived in front of the young man.

The sergeant on the tree on one side straightened his body among the branches, made a noise, and bowed to the man with his face revealed, but did not come down. After completing the salute, he hid himself among the branches and leaves, motionless.

began to look out for the guards.

"Anyone here... can probably defeat dozens of the most powerful urban management officials in the universe, right?"

The visitor with a young and clean face nodded to the sergeant on the tree and said something nonsense in his heart.

In this world, anyone who can sigh in his heart and say such nonsense is naturally the real Lin Xi and cannot be a spy somewhere.

All the black-armored soldiers who appeared gathered in an arc, and two of them stepped out from the crowd. When they walked towards Lin Xi, they also pulled off the masks covering their faces.

Both of them are about forty years old, one has a long face and looks unusually cold and stern, the other has a pale face with a slightly round face, looks kind but smart, making people think of foxes in the mountains for the first time.

"Xin Weike, deputy lieutenant of the Yangjian Tianshan Patrol Army."

The man with a long and stern face carried two swords on his back. Although according to the Yunqin custom, the armor on his body was no different from that of other sergeants, but he naturally showed the aura of an iron-blooded general. He bowed slightly to show his identity and said in a deep voice.

: "Please show me your order and documents."

Lin Xi knew that this was the person in the army who was just below him in rank, and knew that this person would be his deputy, but he clearly felt that this person was not friendly to him... He even said that everyone here

People were not friendly to him. From the eyes of these people, he noticed an emotion that he could not yet determine what it was at the moment.

He frowned slightly, without making a sound, untied a vine from his sleeve, took out a dark iron pipe and a square iron talisman only the size of a thumb, and handed them to the other party's hands.

"Correct."

After carefully checking the documents and iron talismans in the iron cylinder, the man with a long and stern face turned slightly and uttered two words coldly to the black-armored soldier behind him.

"Kang Qianjue, General of the Yangjian Tianshan Patrol Army." General Yunqin, who had a pale face and a slightly round face, bowed and saluted Lin Xi, but Xin Weike, who had a long and stern face, still could not see any kindness on his face.

With a welcoming look, before Kang Qianjue finished speaking, he raised his eyebrows slightly and said coldly: "Mr. Lin, you came to take up the post alone, do you think that there is no danger in the Dragon Snake Mountain Range and you can just run away?

A place to view flowers?”

Lin Xi heard that the other party's unkind intentions were more obvious, but she was a little puzzled by the words of her direct subordinate. She was slightly stunned and said: "Why, isn't this the norm?"

"Isn't this a special request from Mr. Lin?" Xin Weige's face turned even colder, "The Arms Department didn't even send a guide or an escort team?"

Lin Xi shook his head: "Only someone sent me to the outpost of the Third Camp of Yangjiantian and asked me to follow the map."

Xin Weige was silent for a while, and Kang Qianjue and Kang Qianjue were both slightly sluggish, their expressions getting weirder and weirder.

Just for a moment, Xin Weige's face turned livid, and he said slowly: "Even the armor and other armaments were not given to you?"

Lin Xi understood something and said mockingly: "Why...it turns out you don't get it until you arrive?"

Xin Weige was silent again, and the strange looks in the eyes of the black-armored soldiers around him became stronger and their gazes became colder.

"Sir, I'm sorry for my humble position." Suddenly, Xin Weigai's face turned blood red, with several veins popping up on his forehead, and he said in a deep voice: "Please go back, sir, don't risk your life in our place!"

As soon as these words came out, all the black-armored soldiers who were originally silent all breathed a little heavier, but their eyes became sharper and sharper. Everyone seemed to silently support Xin Weige. Only Kang Qianjue smiled bitterly, seeming to feel

This is a bit unfair to Lin Xi, but it is helpless.

Lin Xi raised her head and looked at Xin Weigai.

But to everyone's surprise, there was no trace of anger on his face, and he looked a little strange when looking at Xin Weige.

"I just came here, and you want me to go back? Are you so unwelcome to me?"

Looking at Xin Weigai's cold and angry face, Lin Xi just shook her head slightly with unclear meaning.

Xin Weige did not avoid his gaze at all. She remained calm and silent, and had completely made her attitude clear. The Yunqin black-armored soldiers at the rear all gathered slightly towards him, which also showed their attitude invisibly.

"This is very different from what I imagined... But if you don't welcome me and let me go back, at least it means that you are a good person to me." Lin Xi looked at the attitudes of the people in front of him, but instead smiled slightly, "This

It’s better than I imagined.”

Xin Weige was startled for a moment, but then he figured out some of the meaning, and shook his head coldly, "It seems that you are not stupid. You have already figured it out. You may not be welcomed by some adults in the army... But you have to understand

, although I am not one of those people who does not seek glory but only the will of the Supreme Being, it does not mean that I will accept your arrival. I will not change my attitude and decision just because of your words."

"I can see that you are a practitioner. Our patrol army needs practitioners. However, we need more experienced practitioner generals who can lead us and make the most correct instructions, not a young man like you.

"

"From what you said before, you should be a practitioner who has never been to any frontier army. We don't need a general like you."

Listening to these shameless words and accusations, Lin Xi still didn't feel unhappy at all. He just listened quietly. When Xin Weige stopped speaking, he seriously defended, "We can give it a try... maybe you

You will find that I am not as bad as you thought."

Xin Weigai looked at Lin Xi coldly and shook his head resolutely, "I can't give you a chance, because this is not a local garrison. This is Dragon Snake Mountain where countless people die every day. I am not afraid of death, but I must do it for

I am responsible for the life and death of all these brothers, and I cannot risk their lives."

"What you said makes sense, and I understand what all of you are thinking." Lin Xi was not angry at all, but smiled slightly, looked at Xin Weigai innocently and said: "But I am your superior, and the military orders are as high as the mountain. You just have to

You can obey my orders, but there is no reason for me to obey your orders... Also, if I go back and say that you are determined not to cooperate, you will be disobeying orders, and you will be deprived of military honors at the least."

Xin Weige clenched her fingers hard and said coldly: "It's better than dying and taking these brothers with you."

"You have your own ideas, and you think this is good, but I also have my own different ideas, and I think this is not good." Lin Xi smiled and said, "You are unwilling to change your decision, but I am unwilling to change mine either.

I must join the patrol army, so what?"

"If you really want to use your official title to pressure me and order us to do things, then we will do whatever it takes to make you pay the price."

Xin Weigai took a deep breath, exhaled it heavily, and said sarcastically: "Unless you kill me."

As soon as these words were spoken, the air at the scene was so cold that it was about to freeze. Because all the sergeants present knew very well that no matter how much they looked down on this young man, the identity of the other party as a practitioner was unquestionable. If

If we really take action, a lot of blood will definitely flow here.

"Actually, there is another way." Kang Qianjue stepped forward eagerly and stopped in front of Xin Weige. Like all the soldiers here, he had been looking forward to the arrival of a strong man, but the situation at this moment

, which also made him extremely disappointed and helpless. He suppressed the unhappiness in his heart, looked at Lin Xi, and quickly persuaded: "Your Excellency, you can train... Your Excellency, you can practice on your own in the military camp. As long as you don't have jurisdiction over us, I will

I think Master Xin can agree to join the army without making it so stiff."

Doing nothing in the military camp...wasting military effort.

Everyone can hear what Kang Qianjue means.

This would be angrily rejected by the vast majority of soldiers, because it would be like being raised like a pig, and it would be even less honorable to take the merits of others' desperate efforts.

"It's also okay."

Lin Xi nodded and agreed, "You can give it a try."

Hearing his words, almost all the black-armored soldiers present showed some undisguised contempt in their eyes, thinking that this man had no honor at all... What a shame in their army.
