As Fu Tong'er was about to sit up, she greeted Shen Shize and the others with a giggle: "Hello, hello, nice to see you again. I'll be keeping my eyes on you later..." Before she could finish her words, Jiu Ye grabbed her head.
"The cat is quite familiar with them."
"That's right. We train together every day, so how can we not be familiar with each other? Don't pull me down. I don't want to rely on you."
Suddenly, Master Jiu pinched her chin, turned her around, and said coldly: "Even if you grow wings, you have to come back to this king."
Fu Tong'er lowered her voice and sat up straight: "Ahem, ahem, I know, I know, stop talking, the old man is really nagging..." At this time, You Yi brought a bamboo tube with a long stick in it.
Jiu Ye let go of Fu Tong'er's chin and embraced her body instead. His cat actually called him an old man! And even complained that he was nagging. Three months ago, his cat flew up and ran towards him the moment it saw him. Now, does it not love him as much?
Fu Tong'er was about to stand up to draw lots, but Jiu Ye held her hand again.
Jiu Ye himself did not expect such a move.
What's wrong with him now? Fu Tong'er just went to draw lots, not to leave him.
Thinking of this, he let go.
Seeing Fu Tong'er walk down the steps quickly, like a bird about to take flight, and approach You Yi, I felt a strange sense of emptiness in my heart. I planned to quietly travel south tonight, but I hadn't decided whether to take her with me. This southern tour, fighting the Dingnan Marquis of Pingxi Province, would surely be extremely dangerous. If she stayed here, it might be a better choice. But the Chu State Crown Prince's childhood sweetheart...
Jiu Ye rubbed his forehead. Her affairs really made him anxious. If he wasn't in the imperial city, even if he sent troops to stay in the palace, it wouldn't be as good as him being by her side in person. Especially if her brother Fu Lei came with troops to fetch her, it would be even more difficult.
At this time, You Yi said to Fu Tong'er and the other five recruits, "There are six sticks here, each with the same color forming a group. Tongtong, you go first."
"Okay." Fu Tong'er pulled it out after a few tries and saw that the bottom was painted red.
The remaining five recruits were drawn in turn.
Fu Tong'er and Ba Mushan were paired together. Zhou Qingfeng faced Shen Shize. Sikong Xiao faced Xiao Xin.
Nabamushan was from the Zike nomadic people. He was a man of great strength. Fu Tong'er hadn't had much interaction with the new recruit. During previous training, she had only exchanged a few words with Zhou Qingfeng, the hidden weapon wielder; Shen Shize, the dual-sword wielder; Sikong Xiao, the master of light jumping; and Xiao Xin, the skilled archer.
Nabamushan was a quiet man, over seven feet tall, rather stocky, with a round face and triangular eyes, small as beans. His waist was as thick as an ox, and his arms were round and powerful.
Jiu Ye asked: "Who will You Yi and Tong Er be in the same group with?"
You Yi patted Bamushan and said, "Master Jiu, he, Bamushan, is incredibly strong."
Deputy General Xiao reported: "Master Jiu, Miss Fu is so thin, how can she compare with men!" Qiao'er told him that if her young lady caused any trouble in the army again, he would not be forgiven!
Jiu Ye watched calmly. How could he allow Fu Tong'er to be defeated? Wouldn't that mean that he, as a man, couldn't even protect his own little cat?
"It's nothing serious."
You Yi said: "Please ask Jiu Ye, Deputy General Xiao, Military Advisor Xu, Lieutenant General Du, and Deputy Lieutenant General Sima to come and supervise the examination."
…
Jiu Ye stood up and, as he passed Fu Tong'er, he took her hand as if nothing had happened and walked out. General Yi followed, followed by Military Advisor Xu, Deputy General Xiao, Lieutenant General Du, Deputy Lieutenant General Sima, and then the five new recruits...
