Chapter 140 Military Service

The Blood Vine House is a mysterious organization.

No one knows the identity of the owner of the Blood Vine Building, and no one knows where the Blood Vine Building is located. Even the gang members are very mysterious.

It was born twenty years ago, and it is often an enemy of the Tianhu Gang.

Some people speculated that it was related to the Nie family.

Because Lei Batian slaughtered the whole family of the Nie family twenty years ago, and since then there has been a Blood Vine House, helping many masters who wield the Nie family knife.

It is said that there was also a black iron master holding the Nie family Xuanbing.

A big birthday should be decorated with lanterns and festoons.

Overnight.

Grey-haired people send black-haired people, white silk is hung, and joy turns into wailing.

"Blood Vine Building!"

At the funeral, Lei Batian opened his eyes wide and gritted his teeth:

"Sooner or later, I will destroy Ermanlou and vent the hatred in my heart!"

Above the growl, reverberating in mid-air, the eyes full of murderous intent scanned the audience and paused for a moment on everyone in Tianshui Village.

In the past twenty years, if Tianshui village hadn't repeatedly obstructed him, he would have had the opportunity to eradicate the blood vine building.

Tianshui Village!

Blood Vine House...

‘Damn it all! '

A violent anger surged in his heart, as if it wanted to destroy everything.

Zhou Jia bowed his head and remained silent. He had already made a decision in his heart, and he would not leave the island no matter what before he was not strong enough.

Xiaolang Island.

The four seasons here are like spring, with flowers blooming all year round, and the scenery is intoxicating.

"Mrs. Lei!"

Zhou Jia carried two yellow phosphorus fishes in his hand, stopped in front of the gate of Shan Muhua Courtyard, bowed his head towards the lady who was walking towards him, and said as usual:

"You came to see the master again."

Mrs. Lei and Shan Muhua are very affectionate, and the other party is a frequent visitor to the island. They will come to visit almost every once in a while.

"Yes." Mrs. Lei nodded, with tears in her eyes:

"Mu Hua's health is getting worse day by day, even with Batian's precious medicine, it still doesn't get better, and I don't know when..."

"Hey!"

She sighed softly, with a sad voice.

Zhou Jia opened his mouth, slightly hesitant.

He didn't think the situation was that bad, Shan Muhua had looked sick since he came here, and he still looks like this now.

It looks as if a gust of wind can blow it down, and it will die soon.

but…

After so long, it's still the same.

I don't know if it's his fate, or the precious medicine sent by Lei Batian is effective.

Madam Lei looked at Zhou Jia:

"Are you here to deliver fish to Mu Hua?"

"Yes." Zhou Jia said:

"Senior Sister said that Master likes to eat yellow croakers. It happens that I will catch a few when I am free. I am lucky today, so I specially sent them here."

"I have a heart." Mrs. Lei nodded, with a gratified face, and a trace of doubt flashed in her eyes:

"However, why didn't I know that Mu Hua likes to eat fish?"

"Ah…"

She shook her head and chuckled:

"I'm afraid she didn't like to eat, so she deliberately asked for an excuse. What are you two doing, why don't you take the fish over quickly."

The last sentence is reprimanding the maidservant around her.

"Yes."

The maid stepped forward and took the yellow croaker from Zhou Jia's hand.

"Speaking of it." As the two walked, Mrs. Lei asked casually:

"I remember Batian mentioned that it has been a while since Batian asked you to work in the Tianhu Gang. Why hasn't it passed?"

"This..." Zhou Jia said:

"There are still some things that haven't been dealt with on the younger generation's island, and they won't be able to pass for a while. With the help of Master Lao, I will do it as soon as possible."

"As you like." Madam Lei didn't care about this, she just asked casually, and signaled to Shan Zijin who heard the movement coming from the house:

"Here we come, the yellow croaker you want."

"Auntie!" Shan Zijin said with a coquettish look on her face:

"My dad likes to eat it, I... I just eat two bites with him."

"I know, I know." Mrs. Lei said dotingly, reaching out and stroking the top of her head:

"Where is Mu Hua?"

"My father is out looking for medicine." Shan Zijin said:

"Don't worry, Auntie, with Uncle Xue by my side, everything will be fine. Come in and sit down. My father should be back tomorrow."

"Going to look for medicine again." Mrs. Lei frowned, seeming to blame:

"Running around all day is worrying for no reason."

Seeing that Shan Muhua was not there, and everyone here was a woman, Zhou Jia didn't go in, handed his goodbyes, and went back to his small courtyard.

Months later.

"Gululu..."

There is no charcoal fire under the medicine barrel, but the medicine inside is boiling spontaneously strangely.

The strong scent of medicine permeates the whole room, and the water vapor rushes in, making white smoke spread around the tub, and you can't see your fingers.

Zhou Jia's whole body was soaked in the medicine bucket. Under the high temperature, his skin and flesh turned red, his hairs expanded, and he swallowed the power of the medicine bath with every breath.

Secret medicine!

This is the secret medicine for cultivating the iron body.

It is made of decades-old herbal medicine mixed with blood powder of black iron fierce beasts. In addition to assisting in the cultivation of the iron body, it also has a slight effect of promoting cultivation.

"Hoo..."

After a long time, the white smoke in the field suddenly gathered inwards and merged into Zhou Jia's mouth, followed by a light puff, like a sharp arrow shooting several feet away.

The hard stone slab quietly had a depression.

Iron body proficiency (620/1000)

"Wow..."

Zhou Jia stood up from the medicine barrel, his whole body trembling slightly, the water droplets on his body flew out, his body instantly recovered to dryness, and he casually pulled the long gown on the side and put it on.

Since Long Huxuan entered the body, with the improvement of his cultivation base, the physical body is also constantly getting stronger.

But the fact that the physical body becomes stronger does not mean that the hard work of forging the body has no effect.

Just like this iron body.

As the core inheritance of the Tieyuan School, the skill of using strength and exerting strength is amazing.

Nowadays, even if a master of the sixth rank is slashing randomly with a weapon in his hand, he doesn't make the slightest resistance, just relying on the strength of his flesh and blood, he can be uninjured.

It was as if he was wearing a layer of armor, even if he was a rank nine master, it would not be easy to injure him severely.

and repaired as...

Ninth Grade Internal Strength (28100/30000)

It is only one step away from the tenth rank.

"Shua!"

Lightning flashed his figure, and Jiuzhong's steps up the stairs were like stepping on a ladder. It was clear that there was nothing in the void, but Zhou Jia still took several steps before falling gracefully.

Nine steps of stair climbing proficiency (60/1500)

With the improvement of cultivation base, strength, and vision, even if there is no such thing as a soldier-like trait to bless lightness kung fu, the progress is still not slow.

after all.

Prize 2 and rank 9, if you practice a martial art together, rank 9 must be faster.

There is a world of difference between the two in terms of the movement of strength, the exertion of muscles, and the control of source power.

Combined with the trait of listening to the wind, lightness kung fu is no longer Zhou Jia's obvious weakness.

certainly.

Compared with those who specialize in kung fu, they are still far inferior.

"The main house."

on the water,

A leaf boat, in the rivers and lakes.

Sanshui in coir raincoat came out from under the black canopy and waved:

"Are you going on a trip today?"

Scanning the surroundings, seeing the lake and water, connecting the sky and the earth, his heart trembled, Zhou Jia smiled freely:

"Go prepare wine and dishes."

"Yes!"

Sanshui should be.

...

A flat boat rippling in the water.

Zhou Jia was wearing a coir raincoat and sitting alone on the bow of the boat. The stove beside him was buzzing and emitting white smoke. The warm wine on it was already hot and ready to drink.

He was completely oblivious, holding a fishing rod and staring at the water.

After a while.

"Shua!"

The fishing rod was swung high, and a yellow croaker was pulled out of the water. In the afterglow of the setting sun, there were some splashes, and it was thrown heavily on the board of the boat.

"Ah…"

Zhou Jia chuckled, skillfully put away the fishing line, and filled it with warm wine.

The fish basket under his feet has already reaped a lot.

Yellow phosphorous fish, blacktail fish, and Longyang fish are all high-quality fish caught in the nearby waters. If they are sold, they may be able to sell a lot of origin stones.

He didn't care about these catches, but enjoyed the process.

This life is difficult, and only at this moment can I relax my mind, forget about the fighting and killing outside, and be at ease.

"Clatter..."

Not far away, a figure turned into a long and thin white line in the water, swam from the island, came to the front, and jumped into the boat.

"The main house."

Sanshui wiped off the water droplets on his face, took off a waterproof cloth pocket from his body, and took out some things in it, one by one:

"This is Liu Ye's stewed meat, and San Niang's side dishes, your favorite salad."

"Um."

Zhou Jia nodded, looking at the small island covered with reeds not far away:

"Where are they hiding?"

"Yes." Sanshui nodded:

"It's time for military conscription. Their family has no money and no quota of exemptions, so they can only hide on the island and go back after the conscription period is over."

"What about at home?"

"A broken house is not worth three or five dollars. It doesn't matter if it is smashed or taken over by someone. As long as people are alive, life can continue."

Zhou Jia was silent.

Every two years is the day when the Chi Xiao Army recruits soldiers.

Being a soldier is not a good job. Few people can get ahead, and more people are bullied, and even have many casualties.

Recruitment here, regardless of gender, only age.

Military service is required for those over thirteen and under sixty.

woman…

same thing.

They are also useful in the military.

Needless to say what it is for, but a woman who has served in the military will never be taken by a good family. Either she will marry with money or become a prostitute.

There are many brothels in the city, and most of the people in them are women who have served in the military.

If you want to go or not, you need to have a quota for exemption from service, or pay a deduction.

So at this time, there are people who are trying to avoid military service. The rich are easy to talk about, and the poor are naturally fleeing with their families.

However, the Chi Xiao Army has a conscription quota.

If not enough...

Everyone in Shicheng is having a hard time!

Years ago.

There was a city that failed to complete the conscription task, and was conquered by the Chixiao Army, and the city was full of millions of people, all of whom were slaughtered.

Massacred the city for seven days, leaving no survivors.

When blood flowed like rivers,

It is said that the scene is horrible!

So, in order to complete the task, the City Lord's Mansion, Su Family, Tianhu Gang, Tianshui Village, and even the Blood Vine Tower will do their best.

All forces will give up their prejudices and work together to find enough manpower.

‘The big fish eat the small fish, and the small fish eat the shrimps, and the shrimps can only find places to hide, lingering. '

Regarding such matters, Zhou Jia could do nothing, but just watched the changes of the situation quietly as an indifferent bystander.

"The main house."

After setting things up, Sanshui said eagerly:

"I passed."

"Yeah." Zhou Jia nodded, seeing his longing face, he couldn't help laughing, and threw a piece of fish over:

"Go!"

"Thank you, Master!"

Sanshui was overjoyed, kowtowed hurriedly, and hurriedly put the fish into the bag.

He was actually very curious, why Zhou Jia could harvest so many high-quality fish every time when he came out, it must be impossible to say that he was lucky.

Once is good luck, is it good luck every time?

He also quietly rowed to Zhou Jia's fishing place to try, but he got very little.

I asked once, but didn't get an answer, so I didn't dare to ask again. He knew the identities of the two of them very well, and never dared to go beyond.

Sanshui obviously didn't know that there was something called Beast Lure Pill in this world.

Although Zhou Jia does not have the blood of the Son of the Forest, he has a recipe book, and with the help of spiritual rain technique, it is easy to get some high-quality medicinal materials.

If he wanted to, he could earn a fortune just by fishing.

"Wow..."

Waving the long sleeves lightly, surging with energy, the black-covered boat is like a sharp arrow accelerating, cutting the waves against the water surface, and shooting forward.

Not long after, it was several miles away.

The waterways here are criss-crossed, the undercurrents are surging, and the awning boat floats along the water. Zhou Jia didn't bother to adjust it, so he set up the fishing rod and let it sway, and tasted the wine and food beside him.

Drinks are in your stomach, and side dishes are delicious.

The catches are endless.

After an unknown amount of time, the drunk Zhou Jia frowned, sniffed lightly, swung his long sleeves suddenly, and pushed the black-covered boat close to a small island not far away.

Before he got close, a strong smell of blood came to his nostrils.

"Quack!"

The scavenging bird hovered in the air, pounced down from time to time, and screamed excitedly.

Some have beaks with bright red meat sticks in their mouths.

Zhou Jia's face was gloomy, his eyes flicked over the reeds and grass, and the **** corpses hanging on the trees on the island came into view.

The dead bodies include old people, children, women...

But there are not many young and strong.

Each of them was tortured before death and experienced severe torture.

The shabby sackcloth flutters in the wind, which shows that their life is not rich.

Probably hiding here with his family in order to avoid military service.

The smell of blood has not dissipated, and the blood on the corpses has not dried up. It seems that when they died, it should not be far from now.

Well…

Zhou Jia's eyes moved slightly, and the boat under him has already accelerated, heading in the direction he came from.

"what!"

"Poof!"

There was a scream, and it stopped abruptly.

In the reed marsh, two half-dead corpses fell into the water, and the blood infected the water surface and spread slowly.

"Escape!"

"Escape Nima..."

"How dare you evade military service, causing the old men to run around like chasing mice. They are looking for death!"

island,

The forest is lush.

A group of burly men with angry faces, armed with knives and guns, surrounded a group of panic-stricken men and women.

Someone tied them up one by one with ropes. After a little struggle, they were punched and kicked, and corpses fell to the left and right.

The big Han is uniformly dressed, with waves and water patterns embroidered on his chest. He is obviously from Tianshui Village.

"My lord, my lord." Someone knelt down and shouted in panic:

"I served in the military service the year before. Not long after I came back, I can be discharged twice. This time, I don't need to be on the conscription list. If you don't believe me, you can check it."

This person's surname is Huang, and he is known as Lao Huang.

Wrinkled face, white hair, in fact, only twenty-five or six-year-old, just born old.

"Military service?" A cold voice sounded:

"Since you have served in the military, why hide here?"

"Even if you did serve in the military, it is an equal crime to be with these people who hid here while avoiding military service."

The person who spoke was full of flesh and blood, with ferocious eyes, and waved his hand casually:

"Take them all away!"

"Yes, Liu Tou."

"My lord." Sanshui was also in the crowd. His clothes were torn on his back, and red marks could be seen. Seeing this, he said anxiously:

"I am eligible to be exempted from military service!"

"Oh!" The corners of Liu Tou's mouth curled up:

"Since you have this qualification, what are you doing here?"
