Chapter 16: 15. Best Lost Friend
Chapter 16 15. Best Lost Friend
I feel that every time he holds the long sword in his hand, the blood in He Boqiang's body will slowly boil. It is this force in his body that is constantly changing himself subtly.
Yes, when people realize that they have more powerful power, people often go through a process of continuous self-expansion, and he also finds that he has no fear of death at all, as if the colors of this world are black and white.
In He Boqiang's heart, there is actually a faint hope.
He felt that maybe he was still in a dream, and only the great fear he experienced when he experienced death would wake him up, and then he could return to the world he was familiar with.
Perhaps it is for this reason that He Boqiang is not afraid of death in the deepest part of his heart. On the contrary, he still has a faint expectation.
…
Recently, there has not been much fighting in the forest farm area where the 57th Heavy Armored Infantry Regiment was stationed.
Every morning, the soldiers of the 57th Heavy Armored Infantry Regiment can be seen running out of the camp for exercise. He Boqiang always stands outside the tent at this time, watching the soldiers practice basic tactical moves, heavy strikes, shield blocks, thrusts Wait, the training of the soldiers sweating profusely on the playground will always give He Boqiang the illusion of being in it.
Standing on the top of the slope, facing the rising sun and closing his eyes, and letting the rising sun shine on his body, He Boqiang used this to enter the spiritual world and capture the few memory fragments left around his body. Every memory fragment , can allow He Boqiang to understand part of the experience of the former owner of the body.
He Boqiang can always dream of the fire recently, and it was the fire that destroyed the knight dream of the original owner of the body.
The fire caused He Boqiang to be covered with burn scars all over his body. It is said that an excellent constructed knight, in addition to having a set of priceless magic pattern armor, even every part of his body should be covered by inscription masters. Draw some magic circles, only with the power of magic can you become a strong man.
Larkin fulfilled his promise, and He Boqiang finally had a well-made Roman sword and a small round shield covered with iron.
The small shield tied to the forearm of the left hand is very delicate, only slightly larger than the armguard.
As for the flag long staff of the native leader that He Boqiang seized, Lajin sold it to a magic material merchant in the street market, but Lajin did not get back a single copper plate from the material dealer, and the material dealer brought it back three days later. A brand new set of leather armor arrives.
This set of leather armor consists of five parts: long leather boots, hard leather trousers, leather breastplate, shoulder pads and wrist guards. The leather armor is a bit tight on He Boqiang's body.
La Jin showed off to He Boqiang that this set of leather armor cost him eleven gold coins. Although this set of leather armor looks ordinary, it is made of the skin of a low-level monster blue deer.
However, what He Boqiang saw was that the breastplate was covered with traces of splicing of various broken skins.
Fortunately, the tanner still has some aesthetic skills. At least when splicing these pieces of leather, most of the pieces are symmetrical, which makes this leather armor look not ugly.
…
After two weeks, the second team fulfilled their promise and drank ale together in the open-air tavern.
The soldiers in the Heavy Armored Infantry Regiment are almost all civilians, and almost everyone has no spare money in their hands. Part of the military salary is used for daily expenses, and the rest has to be saved and sent home.
Private soldiers like Suldak can receive about 40 silver coins a month as a military salary, and there will be some other miscellaneous gains in each battle. They are considered the most generous in the second team.
Private Jeronan’s military salary is cut in half compared to Suldak’s. Most of the time, these silver coins are not enough for this black boy to spend himself.
Everyone joined in to drink, but He Boqiang insisted on paying his own share.
This behavior has attracted the favor of many people in the second team, especially the veteran Ian. When drinking beer, his smile is particularly bright. Although Ian is very greedy, but in this kind of party, he drinks When drinking, he seems to be very measured, he will drink as much as everyone drinks, and will not drink an extra glass.
Although the Heavy Armored Infantry Regiment did not explicitly prohibit soldiers from drinking alcohol, it did not advocate it.
Of course, if you are drunk and play crazy in the barracks, you will definitely be whipped.
Captain Sam has limited the amount of beer, and each person can only drink a maximum of three glasses, but the chowder stew and baked wheat cakes are enough to eat.
This meal can be regarded as a small improvement for all members of the second team.
…
There is a gentle **** not too far from the open-air tavern, and less than a kilometer to the south is the Handanar County Forest Farm. The dense forests are closely connected with the undulating mountains.
Green grass, blue sky, white clouds.
The alfalfa on this sloping field is two feet high, and more than a dozen Thunder Rhinoceros that look like small hills are gnawing on the grass by the river below the hillside, where the aquatic plants are the most luxuriant.
Suldak took off the shield behind him and put it on the grass, lay down on his back, resting his head on the shield, resting his hands behind his head and looking at the blue sky, squinting his eyes to enjoy the rare leisure time.
He Boqiang sat beside Suldak, with one leg flat on the grass, one leg bent, one hand resting on his knee, and the Roman sword at his waist was placed aside.
Suldak pulled out a sweet grass root and bit it in his mouth, and said to He Boqiang: "In four months, I will complete my military service."
It turned out that Suldak was still serving in the military, and He Boqiang thought that the members of the second team were all professional veterans like Captain Sam.
"I've decided that I won't stay here any longer." Suldak said in a relaxed tone.
He Boqiang smiled at Suldak as a silent blessing.
Suldak continued: "I have already saved a sum of money and a military merit that is enough to allow me to go home through the teleportation gate. When the time comes, I will rush directly from the forest farm to the town of Handanal County in exchange for teleportation." The gate pass, and then take the magic airship to the city of Tulear, there is a portal in that city, which can take me directly back to the main city of Bena."
Although He Boqiang didn't speak, Suldak knew what he would say, and then he said the next sentence naturally: "Yes, Bena Province is my hometown."
Speaking of his hometown, Suerdak had a happy smile on his face.
"However, my home is not in the city of Bena. I was born in a very remote mountain village. The land there is barren, but the land is sparsely populated. I want to return to my hometown as soon as possible. With the skills I have learned, I will do my best I can improve everyone's life, and I believe I can do it," Suldak said.
After finishing speaking, he turned his head and looked at He Boqiang: "Are you trying to ask me where I live?"
He Boqiang really wanted to roll his eyes at Suerdak, and complained in his heart: 'Which eye did you use to see—I want to ask your home address? '
Suldak snapped his fingers and said with a smile: "Ha! It's really rare, you also have something curious!"
'Neuropathy! '
After Suldak entered the self-help mode, He Boqiang was usually very speechless to this friend.
Suldak didn't even look at He Boqiang, and said on the sidelines: "Listen, I'll just say it once, and I won't repeat it after I finish. Wall Village, Lansa City..."
"The family is still waiting for me to go back early. After more than three years, I don't know what the family has become."
Suldak looked at the clouds in the sky, and the nostalgia in his heart made him fall into silence.
After a while, he recovered from the slight sadness, sat up from the grass, and said to He Boqiang: "Yes, do you want to go back with me? I have a very cute sister in my family. Marry, if you are willing to go back with me, I am willing to marry my sister to you."
Suldak smiled like a treacherous fox: "Hey, you agree if you don't speak out against it."
'MMP's...'
Ten thousand alpacas galloped past He Boqiang's heart.
Suldak suddenly seemed extremely excited. He stood up from the grass, patted the grass clippings on his body, and said to He Boqiang: "Well, this is really a good idea, but the only problem is the plane transfer. The door pass, this thing is not too easy to get."
Involuntarily pulled He Boqiang up from the grass, and said to him: "Well, while we still have time, try to earn more military merit, and maybe we can exchange for two teleportation passes."
"..."
He Boqiang was speechless.
