Are you crazy? Trying to trick him into military service? He's the number one dragon on the fro

The northern border of the Great Zhou Dynasty was occupied by many Hu tribes, and the dynasty had suffered constant harassment from them since its founding.

Therefore, border towns like Changyang County have a long tradition of setting up outposts to guard against the Hu people, so as to facilitate the transmission of information to the border defense battalion with more soldiers as soon as enemy activity is discovered.

According to Lu Anping, the Bailang outpost has hardly encountered large-scale Hu (non-Han) troops in recent years.

Therefore, when new recruits arrive there, they are usually led by a platoon leader to patrol the north side of the outpost, so as to familiarize themselves with the surrounding environment and make flexible deployments according to the terrain when a battle breaks out.

After obtaining information about the White Wolf Outpost from him, Lu Xiao took his leave.

He went home to retrieve his Black Dragon Spear and headed north, intending to hunt as much as possible in the five days before leaving to exchange it for silver so that Liu Xianya would have enough to live on at home.

Three miles north of Sangzi Village, there is a small to medium-sized forest that is an extension of Bailang Mountain.

The villagers occasionally go into the mountains to hunt, enjoying a feast while supplementing their household income.

He found a relatively open and flat place in the mountains and practiced the Dragon Shadow Limitless Spear Technique several times according to the reward from the Lingtong Pagoda. The powerful and vigorous moves made him very happy.

Lu Xiao firmly believed that with this set of marksmanship skills, he would definitely shine in the army.

Two hours later, Lu Xiao had become familiar with the Dragon Shadow Limitless Spear Technique. He only needed to put it into actual combat to test its results and power. So he picked up the Black Dragon Spear, gathered his energy, aimed at a big tree a zhang away, and threw it out.

puff-

The sound erupted, and Lu Xiao walked over and circled the large tree that required two adult men to encircle it. To his surprise, he found that the gun tip had actually pierced through the tree.

"Even though the gun tip only protruded as a tiny point shorter than a fingernail, that was enough!"

"The unparalleled power described by the Exquisite Pagoda is indeed no exaggeration!"

He sighed, but it took him a great deal of effort to pull out the Black Dragon Spear.

After all, drawing a gun takes more effort than shooting it!

For the next period of time, Lu Xiao searched back and forth in the mountains and forests, but was extremely frustrated to find that he could not find a single pheasant or rabbit that he could usually hunt easily today.

The entire forest was eerily quiet, as if all living things had vanished!

Seeing this, Lu Xiao returned to the village in disappointment.

As soon as he arrived at the village entrance, he saw a group of people surrounding his house, holding brooms, hoes, sickles and other farm tools, timidly surrounding his yard.

He was startled for a moment, then quickly stepped forward.

In the crowd, Lu Anping saw her return. Before he could speak, he grabbed her and said urgently:

"Brother Xiao, a wolf has broken into your house! Sister Liu was so scared that she climbed onto the roof."

"Quickly think of a way to save her!"

"What?"

Upon hearing this, Lu Xiao was greatly alarmed. Without saying a word, he pushed aside the villagers blocking his way and stood at the very front.

A giant wolf, pure white with glowing green eyes and a head as tall as an adult man's shoulder, bared its teeth at the crowd around them.

Liu Xianya, on the rooftop, was trembling with fear.

He immediately grabbed the Black Dragon Spear, ready to finish off the beast.

At that moment, Lu Anping suddenly hugged him tightly, shaking his head repeatedly:

Where are you going?

"Before you came back, several young men were scratched by the wolf king's claws. You absolutely cannot go up against it alone!"

Other villagers echoed this sentiment, with some even saying they had urgently arranged for the village women to weave hemp nets in preparation for capturing the wolf king.

After all, going to the county town to ask the officials for help would not only cost money, but also waste time.

Encircle it to prevent it from escaping and continuing to harm people.

Upon hearing this, Lu Xiao immediately broke free from the village chief's grasp and said in a deep voice:

"Uncle, didn't my father often buy books for me to read from itinerant merchants when he was alive?"

"There happened to be some basic martial arts manuals inside. I've been practicing them for years, and I've gotten a decent skill."

"You all step back for now and watch me kill this beast!"

"Brother Xiao..."

Upon hearing this, Lu Anping and the others were thrown into even greater confusion.

Everyone knows that martial arts training requires a master to guide you through the process. How much can a scholar achieve by figuring it out on his own?

Unfortunately, Lu Xiao had already arrived in front of the White Wolf King with his gun, and the two were only five feet apart!

Their eyes met, and Lu Xiao gripped the Black Dragon Spear tightly, gathering his strength while roaring:

Come on!

"Go ahead and eat me if you dare!"

"Today it's either you die or I die!"

Roar--

The white wolf king seemed to take this as a provocation, and after lowering its body, it charged forward.

The villagers watching gasped in shock, some even closing their eyes, unable to bear witnessing the tragedy that was about to unfold.

But they did not hear any screams for a long time.

Some villagers nervously opened one eye and peered through their fingers, only to be instantly dumbfounded.

With his knees slightly bent, Lu Xiao gripped the black spear in both hands and raised it high in an upward thrust, the spear tip piercing the wolf king's eye.

"Whoa!"

Everyone was stunned by what they saw, rubbing their eyes repeatedly, thinking it was all an illusion.

puff-

At this moment, Lu Xiao casually threw the White Wolf King's corpse on the ground, looked up and opened his arms to Liu Xianya on the roof:

"You can get down now."

"My husband..."

Liu Xianya finally burst into tears, groped her way down, and threw herself into his arms.

Lu Xiao turned around, holding Liu Xianya in his arms, stepping on the White Wolf King, and stared at the villagers with complex expressions, saying loudly:

"The boy is about to join the army, and Xianya is my woman."

"From now on, when I go home to visit my family, I don't want to hear any gossip about Xianya being bullied. If so..."

Swish!

He flicked his toes, raised his hand to grasp the Black Dragon Spear, and pointed it directly at the White Wolf King's head.

After saying that, he helped Liu Xianya, whose legs were weak, back into the house and comforted her.

Lu Anping finally reacted to the chatter around him, marveling at how much Lu Xiao had grown up, and murmured in admiration:

"No wonder this kid volunteered to join the army; he's got the makings!"

"Perhaps a great general will emerge from our Lu family!"

A moment later, Lu Xiao came out of the house and saw the villagers whispering and staring at the corpse of the White Wolf King, a greedy glint occasionally flashing in their eyes. He then said to Lu Anping:

"Uncle, you are the village chief, so this white wolf king is entrusted to you to handle."

"I only want its fur, I'll make a cloak for Xianya to wear in winter."

He made this arrangement because he knew that the shock he brought to everyone today would fade away amidst the daily grind of life.

But as soon as everyone sees Liu Xianya's wolf-skin cloak, they will remember what happened today.

In this way, she won't be bullied even if she lives alone at home.

Upon hearing this, Lu Anping nodded quickly:

"Don't worry, Xiao-ge, your uncle will definitely allocate it properly and make sure you're satisfied."

After speaking, he looked at the villagers, raised his hand, and shouted like he was herding chicks:

"Everyone, you can all leave now..."
