Chapter 10 Handover between old and new military advisors

"As for me, I was born into an ordinary family. My parents were not very talented. They wanted me to become an immortal even after they had not established a foundation for it for 30 years, so they sent me away early. The purpose of my life seems to be to satisfy their regrets. I don't want this, So as soon as they died, I deliberately broke the rules and asked them to kick me out. They wanted me to be a cultivator, so I just wanted to be a mortal. They wanted me to slay demons and protect the Tao, so I just wanted to be a bandit. This is That’s why I’m here.”

Jiang Li said to the headmaster.

There were only four of them in Huwei Hall at this time, and they were almost ready to make Lantern Festivals and lanterns. Some of them were responsible for sending the two masters who had been kidnapped down, and some of them went out to help cut the snake meat.

The first master just listened to Jiang Li's words quietly, and the second master whispered a few words next to the first master.

Jiang Li Chong said to the second master.

"It's just the four of us, so don't whisper. I'm also curious about what you said."

But the second boss ignored her.

After the first master listened to what the second master said, he looked at Jiang Li for a while and then said to Jiang Li.

"You are quite honest."

"Well... yes, I am very honest. Everything I said this time is the truth."

"Then why didn't you tell me last time?"

This time it was the Third Master who asked.

Jiang Li looked at him and tilted his head.

"I thought we were in the same group."

"When the master accepts you later, we will be the ones. And I'm also curious."

The Third Master is also a person who doesn't take things too seriously when watching the excitement.

The other two people didn't speak. It was obvious that they were also waiting for Jiang Li to explain.

Jiang Li sighed.

"Because the truth is too...unbelievable. If I say that I became a bandit because of my rebellion, will you accept it? Then I will say that I am originally from the evil sect. It is normal to make up a resume for work."

Jiang Li said this.

Of course she knows that these people don't understand what a resume is, so she also knows that they can be kicked out if they don't understand a fictitious resume.

The boss sighed.

"I don't know what you think of bandits, but I don't have high requirements for my men. Honesty, that's all. As for lying, who hasn't lied to me yet? Second child."

The first master said and called the second master.

The second master said reluctantly.

"When I went up the mountain, I said I knew 72 sword skills. In fact, I used to be a cook in a restaurant. The county guard poisoned our restaurant and wanted to poison his wife, so I was pulled out as a scapegoat, and then I went up the mountain. I died. Cripple, it’s your turn.”

After the second master finished speaking, he asked the third master to continue.

The Third Master didn't feel embarrassed and spoke directly.

"When I went up the mountain, I said that I used to be a master thief who robbed the rich and gave to the poor, because it sounded cool. In fact, I was indeed a thief, but not famous. I planned to make a big case and steal the property of Wu Sancheng, the rich man in Sifang City. Home. I went there in the middle of the night, but when I entered, I happened to meet a dozen martial arts masters living in their house, and I fought with them..."

"Tell the truth. I told you everything."

The third master was getting excited when he was interrupted by the second master.He had to tell the truth.

"I climbed over the wall, but my leg was broken when I came down. But before they woke up and caught me, I ran away through the dog hole. But my leg didn't make it over, and was chopped off by them with an axe. I was also lucky. But I didn’t want to be a beggar, so I went up the mountain.”

The third master said, shaking his wooden leg.

Jiang Li nodded. Just as he was about to say something, he heard the boss say something again.

"He's also lying. Last time, he said someone poisoned his leg and he cut it off himself."

Jiang Li looked at the third master again, and there was no shame on his face.

The boss said to Jiang Li again.

"How many of the brothers on the mountain have powerful backgrounds? The world is very chaotic. I won't say that we who are bandits have a clear conscience, but doing so can make us live a good life. So I don't care about you going up the mountain at all. What is the specific reason? I just want you not to betray our brothers. Will you?"

Jiang Li smiled.

"I never had brothers. So if I did, I would never betray them."

"That's fine."

“Finally the mountains are not all filled with men!”

The third master said happily.

The eldest master glanced at the third master and said to Jiang Li.

"He is just addicted to talking. He doesn't have the guts to even go to the brothel. As for you, I can guarantee you that no brother on the mountain will be rude to you, because you are now one of us. If there is , I will kill him."

"Thank you Master."

Jiang Li said sincerely.

At this time, the boss remembered something again.

"However, there is someone you need to meet."

"Who?"

"Former military advisor. There are some things I still need to make clear."

"...Otherwise I'll just be a follower, that's fine."

Jiang Li planned to escape just like that, but the boss didn't allow it.

"Go and find him."

Jiang Li suddenly felt that he should give up being a bandit to avoid embarrassing situations later.

Of course, just think about it.

Just when Jiang Li was about to turn around and leave, she heard the second boss calling her again.

"Zhiduoxing, besides the fire you used last time, what else can you do?"

"Actually... when I was kicked out, my cultivation was disabled. Although I still have some ability, it takes a long time to accumulate mana. That ball of fire consumed my mana for a month."

Jiang Li had already thought of this reason and was just waiting for someone to ask.

The second master accepted this reason and let Jiang Li go out.

When she walked outside, she saw that the men had taken off all the snake skins and were processing the snake meat.

These people had all received orders. If the head master had not ordered them to enter the Huwei Hall, then Jiang Li would have officially become the military advisor of the village.

So when they saw Jiang Li walking out of Huwei Hall intact, they all said hello.

"Hello, military advisor." "Hello, military advisor."

"You are all right."

As he said that, Jiang Li squatted beside him and watched them cutting the snake meat.

Jiang Li asked a minion casually.

"What are you going to do with this snake meat?"

"The second boss said that if you marinate it, it will last for a month or two."

"Is it so long? If you eat it every day, you can eat it for more than half a month."

"We are still in the New Year. If we improve our food, we should eat it every day. But after the New Year, we will control the amount and eat it once in a while. If you can eat meat every day, you must be a rich man."

The minion said with a smile, as if Jiang Li was joking when he said he would eat it every day.

Jiang Li couldn't help but think that in his original world, eating meat was a very common thing.

She didn't say anything more, she just asked the guy.

"Do you know where the former military advisor is?"

"Oh, right over there."

The minion pointed to the distance, where the hunchbacked man was sweeping the floor.

Seeing this scene, Jiang Li felt a little upset inside.She forced a man who was originally a military adviser to sweep the floor.

However, you still have to face the people who have been hurt by your own happiness.

So, she walked up to that person.

"Well, can we talk?"

"It seems that the master has recognized you as a military advisor."

The man put down the broom, looked Jiang Li up and down, and then pointed to the nearby stone table and bench.

"Go and sit over there."

With that said, the two people walked over.

After sitting down, Jiang Li spoke first.

"Sorry, I didn't..."

"Why are you embarrassed?"

"...Because of me, you lost your position as military advisor."

"You're a bandit, why do you have to apologize? Why do you feel ashamed?"

The former military advisor questioned Jiang Li. Jiang Li couldn't answer these questions for a while and just looked at the man's face.

Then, the man suddenly laughed.

"I was just kidding. I love hanging out with the juniors. It makes me feel young."

"You don't look old."

"How old do you think I am?"

Jiang Li looked at this person carefully and decided to continue talking so as not to hurt anyone.

"It's about 54 or 55."

"I'm 49."

Jiang Li felt that the atmosphere had become awkward.

However, the former military advisor did not take this as a matter of course.He asked Jiang Li.

"Do you know what is the most important thing about being a military advisor?"

"Smart, resourceful, and able to come up with the best solution."

"Sister Zuiyou?"

"It's the best plan."

"This statement is interesting, but it is not complete."

Jiang Li was confident in her answer, but the words of the former military advisor made her a little surprised.

Jiang Li didn't need to ask, the former military advisor continued.

"Military advisor, the most important thing is to integrate information. You need to know the situation of the escort agencies in the past, which ones can be robbed and which ones cannot. You need to know whether the soldiers sent to suppress the bandits in the city are strong or weak, and whether they are really suppressing the bandits or deceiving them. . Then you can make the best plan."

"Oh, I see."

"I believe you are very smart, and you seem to be very courageous, but in terms of information, you are far behind. You look young. You must have been practicing Taoism and just arrived in the secular world, right? Then you have to learn a lot. .”

"understood."

Jiang Li nodded.

At this time, she realized that the former military advisor had been giving advice to her and did not say anything about her taking his job.

Therefore, Jiang Li asked himself.

"Well, I took your job, won't you hold a grudge against me?"

"Me? Hahaha."

The former military advisor laughed.

"Do you know why I'm smart? I'm smart because I know how much I weigh. Before I went up the mountain, I was a teacher in a private school. I couldn't teach or farm. No one came to the private school. At this time, the second boss The person who persuaded me to go up the mountain said that the mountain lacked a military advisor. He told me that I could eat meat for every meal, that liar. However, I know very well that I have not done well in these years, and I have been telling the boss that as soon as it is suitable, If you choose someone else, I won’t do it. Then, you come.”

"But... I still feel that I am a little wrong..."

"You don't need to be sorry for me. I just want to make a living, but you are different."

When the former military advisor said this, he stood up.

"And remember, you are a bandit now. You must learn to lose your shame, otherwise your life will be very painful. You must have the ability to rob other people's things and still spend the money."

This was the former military advisor's last advice to Jiang Li.After saying that, he continued to sweep the floor.

Jiang Li just sat on the stool, thinking about everything he just said.

Bandits don't seem that happy.
