The five black-armored guards assigned by Qu Dayou to Xu Ning arrived at the guard post in Fengliu Lane the next day.
What Xu Ning didn't expect was that among the five people, one of them was his roommate Tao Qingping.
In addition to Tao Qingping, there were two people from the Songjiazhuang circle, and two people from the local circle in the county seat, and none of them were from Tanjiazhuang.
Looking at the candidates for this assignment, Xu Ning also knew that Qu Da had ulterior motives.
A few days later, the new Fengliu Lane Black Armor Guard Station basically took shape, and everything began to run in an orderly manner.
During this period, there was a reply to the letter Xu Ning sent out.
The messengers sent by the Black Armor Guards to Taojiazhuang did not come back directly after delivering the letters from the families of the newcomers. Instead, they stayed for one night and brought a reply letter from the Taojiazhuang family, as well as some small things that needed to be sent. thing.
Xu Ning received two replies, one was written by his brother-in-law Tao Yunchuan, and the letters were all instructions to Xu Ning.
He and Xu Lian asked Xu Ning to take care of himself, obey the arrangement of the superior, and work steadily and steadily.
Xu Ning did not write his appointment as the acting captain in the letter, he planned to wait until he became a full-fledged captain before telling his family about it.
Therefore, Tao Yunchuan and Xu Lian did not know the change of Xu Ning's status, so they encouraged Xu Ning to be a qualified black armored guard.
In addition to a letter, Xu Lian also asked someone to bring a long spring dress. This dress was ripped by Xu Lian herself and sewn for Xu Ning. The size of the dress fit her body just right.
The second letter was written by Guo Ye to Xu Ning.
Guo Ye's letter only had a few jokes, which roughly meant that he became very confident after having a black armored brother, and hoped that Xu Ning could be promoted as soon as possible, so that he could follow suit.
In addition, Guo Ye also brought Xu Ning a sealed wooden box.
After Xu Ning opened it, he found that it was an elixir called Yangfengzhizi.
This elixir has similar effects to swallowtail grass, and it is helpful for the promotion of the early stage of the Mortal Realm.
The selling price of Yangfeng Zhizi in the county is around 800 taels, which is very expensive.
Even for Tao Yungang, Guo Ye's uncle, this price is not a small sum of money.
When Xu Ning received it, his heart was full of turmoil.
Before leaving for the city, Guo Ye and Tao Yungang prepared the Yangfeng branch and asked Xu Ning to take it with them, but Xu Ning refused to accept it after a while.
But now, the Yangfeng branch is still in his hands.
With gratitude to Guo Ye and Tao Yungang, Xu Ning absorbed the energy in Yangfeng Zhizi, a total of 8 units.
Adding the 6 units accumulated before, Xu Ning's energy has reached 14 units.
Xu Ning didn't use these 14 units of energy to improve the Gale Sword Technique or the Origin Breath Body Training Art, adding them to the perfect level.
Instead, he intends to save his inner strength to the level of Qi sense.
The energy required for 25 units does require a certain amount of time to accumulate.
…
Another day passed.
Xu Ning and Tao Qingping left Weiyi at the same time.
They settled their dinner on the roadside, and instead of returning to the third camp, they went to the residential area of Weiyi in Fengliu Lane.
In the Black Armor Guard, the school lieutenants in each guard station have their residences in the Lane area.
This residence is assigned by Heijiaweili, and most of them are located in the private housing area in the Lane area.
When Chen Ren was the captain, he felt that the captain's residence was simple, so he never lived there.
Xu Ning didn't dislike it. This place is closer to Fengliu Lane. Living here saves the distance he needs to travel to and from the third camp when he is on duty, which is much more convenient.
After discussing with Xu Ning and Tao Qingping, they finally moved in at the same time.
There is a large yard and many rooms. After Xu Ning and Tao Qingping each chose one, there were still a few vacancies.
Xu Ning plans to wait for the right time in the future to bring his sister, brother-in-law and his family to live temporarily for a while.
Xu Ning and Tao Qingping were walking in the alleys of the residential area.
The alleys are crooked and narrow, and in some places, if you meet someone coming in your face, you have to turn sideways.
As they walked, Xu Ning and Tao Qingping faced each other, a young girl with braids and a thin old jacket came.
She looked about seventeen or eighteen years old, with a fair complexion and a petite figure. She looked at Xu Ning with timid eyes.
Perhaps it was because Xu Ning and the two of them were wearing the costumes of black armored guards. When the little girl intersected with the two of them, she quickened her pace, and quickly brushed past them and disappeared at the end of the alley.
"What else are you looking at?"
Xu Ning slapped Tao Qingping on the back of the head, smiling teasingly.
At this time, Tao Qingping stared at the place where the girl disappeared, with a look of reluctance.
"Get off… "
Tao Qingping felt a little embarrassed.
Although in Weiyi, the relationship between two or more people gets along as a subordinate, but in private, they are still friends.
"If you really like it, you can ask her about it."
Xu Ning said to Tao Qingping.
Tao Qingping and Xu Ning are about the same age, both eighteen years old, already the marriageable age in this world.
"I've already asked..."
Mentioning this, Tao Qingping suddenly became a little lonely: "She lives in a private house behind our yard. There are parents and a younger brother at home."
"Besides, she has a childhood sweetheart who lives opposite her house."
Tao Qingping continued: "However, her sweetheart seems to be in poor health and needs to take medicine for a long time. The two are in love with each other, but her parents don't agree with this marriage, so they have been delaying it."
"You are really clear enough to inquire about this information."
Xu Ning praised Tao Qingping's ability to obtain information.
"As ordered by her parents and said by a matchmaker, her childhood sweetheart's family is not satisfied, so you might have a chance to try."
What Xu Ning said was not casual.
Tao Qingping is now a serious Black Armored Guard. In terms of status alone, he is outstanding among his peers.
"Forget it, twisted melons are not sweet. If someone has a sweetheart, I won't join in the fun."
Tao Qingping is very knowledgeable.
"You..."
Xu Ning shook his head and didn't say anything more.
…
Time flies.
In a blink of an eye, another month and a half passed.
In the past one and a half months, Kangyun County has basically returned to calm.
The shops left behind by Dayuan Trading Company in Fengliu Lane were also gradually replaced.
Fengliu Lane also reappeared the bustling scene before.
The entire Kangyun County is once again a world of peace and tranquility.
However, the people in the county town live and work in peace and contentment, but in the third camp of the Heijiawei, there is a tense atmosphere.
Because, the three-month assessment and evaluation is about to begin.
This assessment and evaluation will be personally supervised by the commander Wei Changqing. Everyone's skill level and talent potential will be seen by the supreme helm of the black armored guards.
In addition, this assessment is related to the allocation of resources for the next three months, and almost everyone in the camp is tense.
Except Xu Ning.
Xu Ning is very relaxed, because he has already accumulated 25 units of energy, and has raised the realm of internal energy to the fourth level of energy sense!
Xu Ning had accumulated 14 energy points before, plus the salary and subsidies for the past two months, a total of two swallowtail flowers and five hundred taels of silver.
Xu Ning exchanged the five hundred taels of silver for two swallowtail flowers.
Four swallowtail flowers, a total of 12 units of energy, plus the previous 14 units, a total of 26 units.
Even if he has been promoted to the fourth level of mortal realm, Xu Ning still has a surplus of 1 unit of energy.
"Xu Ning!"
Tao Qingyuan's voice came from outside the door.
Because tomorrow is the assessment day, Xu Ning and Tao Qingping temporarily moved back today.
"Qingyuan."
Xu Ning opened the door and saw Tao Qingyuan whom he hadn't seen for a long time.
At this time, Tao Qingyuan's aura was more stable than before. Xu Ning, relying on his own experience, could see the progress of Tao Qingyuan's source of breath exercise at a glance.
When Xu Ning looked at Tao Qingyuan, Tao Qingyuan was also observing Xu Ning.
If it was said before, Tao Qingyuan felt that Xu Ning gave him a strong sense of oppression.
But now, Tao Qingyuan just felt that Xu Ning was unpredictable.
"It's been a long time since I saw you."
Tao Qingyuan walked into the room and greeted Tao Qingping.
Afterwards, Tao Qingyuan sat down and asked, "How is it? Have you thought about the yellow card opponent you are going to challenge tomorrow?"
