Supreme Dragon Palace

"What's your name?"

The middle-aged man stopped beside Yu Ran's table and asked in a low voice.

"Ok?"

Yu Ran was taken aback for a moment, looked sideways at the middle-aged man, and replied with a smile, "Xu Yi."

"Xu Yi." The middle-aged man repeated, nodded solemnly, and said, "I remember this name."

"?"

Yu Ran was bewildered.

Could it be that this middle-aged uncle, with sharp eyesight, discovered the protagonist's temperament in him?
However, the middle-aged man didn't say anything, and strode out of the cafeteria.

Yu Ran shrugged his shoulders and didn't think about it any more. He continued to sit there, slowly and seriously absorbing the spiritual power contained in the porridge.

Gentle spiritual power, like a warm current, swims through his limbs and bones.

The injuries inside and outside his body recovered at a speed visible to the naked eye, and he also felt that his muscles and bones were getting stronger little by little.

Of course, this kind of strength is only relative to this useless body.

Chef Xue stood silently behind the cafeteria window, hiding in the darkness, unable to see the expression on his face.

He observed Yu Ran for a while, seemed to shake his head, but didn't seem to do anything, turned around and left without a sound.

In the huge cafeteria, the dim candlelight swayed with the wind, pulling Yu Ran's lonely figure like a demon.

No one came to urge him to leave.

Yu Ran is not in a hurry.

The spiritual power of a bowl of spiritual porridge is actually less than one percent of that of a spiritual fruit, but he didn't dislike it at all.

He drank bit by bit with great seriousness and concentration.

For him now, this bowl of spiritual porridge is his hope of surviving in this giant city. He must absorb all the spiritual power in the porridge, and must not waste a little bit.

Moreover, to be honest, he is really happy with this kind of life.

This made him feel like returning to the time when he left the Dragon Kingdom a few years ago and was surviving alone in the battlefield outside the border, when he was in danger.

Although that kind of life is difficult and may die at any time, it is very fulfilling and exciting.

Later, I gradually became famous and got a lot of opportunities. I no longer need to fight to the death for a piece of spirit crystal. I also have a huge amount of cultivation resources in my hands, but I also lost that kind of aggressive passion.

Holding the spiritual porridge in both hands, he swallowed bit by bit as he recalled.

After an unknown amount of time, the bowl of spirit porridge was finally consumed, and the bowl was as clean as a mirror.

He didn't even have any scraps left, and he licked it very thoroughly.

call!
Gently put down the bowl, touched the slightly swollen belly, felt the faint heat surging in the body, and the corner of Yu Ran's mouth slightly evoked a satisfied smile.

This life was finally saved.

He got up and rinsed the bowl, put it on the window of the cafeteria, and said sincerely to the empty and dark back kitchen: "Thank you Mr. Xue for today's gift. If there is an opportunity in the future, it will be rewarded!"

Yu then took two steps back, bowed deeply, then turned and walked outside.

A figure appeared near the cafeteria window like a ghost, it was the chef Xue, he looked at Yu Ran's straight back, thought for a while, picked up the bowl from the window, turned around and disappeared into the darkness, As if it never appeared...

Outside the cafeteria, the night wind howled.

In the huge brazier, the flames were crackling and burning.

Teams of fully armed soldiers patrolled around the camp. The huge city was shrouded in the cloud of war, and the air was filled with a depressing and murderous atmosphere.

Yu Ran stood at the entrance of the cafeteria, tightened the tattered armor on his body, looked around, and looked calm like a peerless expert, but in fact, he was panicking in his heart at the moment.

mmp, where is his dormitory?

Where should he go next?

If you break in, will you be taken as a spy by those patrolling soldiers?Now is the time of war, the whole city is under martial law, it is really dangerous to walk alone on the road!

There were already three waves of soldiers patrolling back and forth in front of the cafeteria, and they also noticed this strange auxiliary soldier standing motionless on the steps of the cafeteria.

"Xu Yi, Xu Yi..."

A soldier was about to come forward to ask questions, when a fat man trotted over from the side and shouted at Xu Yi who was on the steps.

Looking at the fat man, Xu Yi couldn't help but secretly heaved a sigh of relief.

At this moment, he felt that this fat man was really pleasing to the eye, and his chubby face was round and round, so cute.

"Stop, Ye Xiao, call back."

The inspecting soldiers stopped, and one of them put his hand on the handle of his waist and yelled at the fat man.

Only then did the fat man notice the group's posture, his face paled with fright, he quickly stood still, and bowed back with a trembling voice: "Hui, Hui lord, Hui, Hui Ling, wild, wild dog."

The soldier frowned slightly, but did not remove his hand from the handle of the knife. He asked coldly, "You are a small auxiliary soldier, and you don't stay in the tent to rest in the middle of the night. What are you doing here? Don't you know that the army is under martial law at night?"

"Back, back, my lord, this subordinate, this subordinate has an order, come, come to find Xu Yi, this is a temporary pass issued by the high school lieutenant."

The fatty tremblingly took out a document from his pocket and handed it over.

The soldier checked it once, his expression relaxed a little, he glanced at Xu Yi on the steps, waved his hand and said, "Hurry up and go back, don't wander around outside, be careful that you will be shot on the spot as a spy."

The soldier returned the document to Fatty, left with the patrol team, and continued to patrol the barracks...

The fat man carefully put away the documents, looked at the patrol team leaving, let out a long breath, then looked at Yu Ran, and said, "Xu Yi, don't be dazed, come back with me."

"Xu Yi, do you know Gao Gao Lieutenant?"

While leading the way, the fat man asked curiously, "That black-faced old Gao actually took the initiative to ask me to come to you with a temporary pass. He seems to be very worried about your safety?"

Yu Ran followed closely behind, shook his head and said, "I don't know him, maybe the captain of the high school is kind-hearted."

"Hehe, Xu Yi, you're quite humorous." Fatty seemed to have heard a big joke, and couldn't help laughing, "The black-hearted old Gao is kind and kind? That monster is a good monster."

"Xu Yi, you don't know. The news about you returning to the city with Amber's body on your back has already spread throughout the auxiliary barracks. Everyone is praising you, saying that you value love and righteousness, and that you are a good man."

"Even Zuo Long, who has been displeased with you, is clamoring to be sworn brothers with you... Tsk, Zuo Long is a tyrant in the auxiliary barracks, with him under his cover, no one will bully you in the auxiliary barracks in the future gone."

"However, you are really powerful. Seeing how weak you are usually, I didn't expect to be so brave."

"I heard from them that you also killed a chisel-tooth monster? Is it true?"

The fat man turned his head to look at Yu Ran, his eyes were full of curiosity.

Yu Ran pondered for two seconds, nodded, and said, "The chisel-tooth monster was seriously injured, and Amber was desperately pestering him. I was lucky enough to kill that monster. If it wasn't for Amber, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to kill it." Can't come back alive."

When Yu Ran said this, he revealed a look of grief just right, and his eyes were flushed.

When the fat man saw this scene, the desire to explore immediately disappeared. He also realized that what he just said seemed a little too much, so he quickly apologized: "Xu Yi, I'm sorry, I..."

"It's okay, fat man, let's go, we have to work tomorrow, let's go back and rest quickly."

Yu Ran patted the fat man on the shoulder and said.

"Uh-huh……"

The fat man nodded, and didn't mention anything outside the city. One fat and one thin walked for about a quarter of an hour, and the surrounding became more and more remote and chaotic. Then, a large camp appeared in Yu Ran's eyes.

There was a guard in tattered armor at the gate of the camp, leaning against the gate and dozing off, not vigilant at all.

But think about it, even if an enemy came in, they wouldn't attack an auxiliary barracks, would they?
Otherwise, they wouldn't have only arranged for one guard to guard the gate of the auxiliary barracks, which was obviously a show.

"Cough cough..."

When the fat man walked to the gate of the camp, he coughed loudly.

The guard woke up immediately, and subconsciously stood up straight, with no trace of sleepiness on his face, he was obviously an old thief.

"Fuck, it's you, the fat man? You frightened me."

When the guard saw that it was a fat man, his straight body collapsed immediately, leaning lazily against the gate, cursing angrily.

"Brother Qing, if the high school lieutenant sees this, you will be punished," the fat man kindly reminded.

The guard waved his hand and said impatiently, "Am I still afraid of that black-hearted boss? Xu Yi is behind you?"

The light was a bit dim, and the guard squinted his eyes to see clearly.

"Tsk, Xu Yi, you are a famous person now, and I admire you in Daqing. If you have anything to do in the auxiliary barracks, you can come to me at any time. You brother, I will hand over to you in Daqing."

The guard patted his chest with a look of loyalty.

"Thank you Brother Qing."

Yu Ran arched his hands and smiled politely.

The guard named Brother Qing raised his eyebrows, cast a sidelong glance at Yu Ran, and said, "It's strange, Xu Yi, you've come out of this city and walked through a life-and-death moment, it seems like you've gotten the hang of it?"

Yu Ran: "..."

It feels like he has done something that is not in line with this body.

He really didn't know what kind of temperament the original owner of this body had before!

Yu Ran said with emotion: "I was too young and ignorant before, if I did something that made Brother Qing unhappy, I'm here to apologize to Brother Qing."

"After going through the gate of hell, I finally came to my senses. You can't just live in your own world, especially in this situation. If you want to live, you have to change yourself."

Brother Qing stood up a little bit straighter, glanced at Yu Ran, and said with a hearty smile: "Okay, it seems that your trip is not in vain, Ah Yi, seeing that you can make the change you are now, I think Amber will have it in heaven." Ling, will also be very happy."

"We are all fellow villagers. We should support each other in this auxiliary barracks. We will be good brothers in the future."

"It's getting late, you guys should go back and rest quickly. Tomorrow, we have to move the materials for the defense of the city to the city wall. It's a hard job, and we need to keep our spirits up."

"Ayi, live well!"

Brother Qing stepped forward and patted Yu Ran on the shoulder.

Yu Ran nodded seriously.

"Okay, let's go in."

Brother Qing opened the big wooden door, and when Fatty and Yu Ran entered the auxiliary barracks, he closed the door again, and continued to doze against the door, not worried at all about enemy attacks...

The fat man led Yu Yu around the dilapidated tents, and then got into a tent with several large patches sewn in the corner.

The moment Yu Ran got into the tent, he was almost smoked to death!
Nima, this taste is simply...

He retched a few times, suppressed the discomfort, and lay down on the empty bunk next to the fat man. He didn't bother to take off his armor, and pulled off the moldy quilt to cover his body.

"Ayi, go to sleep now."

The fat man whispered, and soon there was a snore.

Hearing the constant snoring in the tent and the pungent sour smell, Yu Ran soon got used to it, closed his eyes, and slept very soundly this time...

beep...

In a daze, a sharp whistle rang through the entire auxiliary barracks.

"Ayi, Ayi, get up quickly, we have assembled urgently."

The fat man gave Yu Ran a hard push, turned over and jumped off the bed, very neatly.

Yu Ran opened his eyes, looked at the dilapidated tent above his head, and was stunned for two seconds before realizing what was happening to him.

"Ayi, get up soon, you will be boarded if you are late..."

Seeing that Yu Ran hadn't got up yet, the fat man urged him again.

"Oh."

Yu Ran turned over and got up, put on his tattered boots, and walked out with his companions in the tent.

From the surrounding tents, auxiliary soldiers wearing tattered armor came out one by one. Each auxiliary soldier had a disheveled face. It looked malnourished, but more numb and desperate.

Yu Ran followed behind the fat man and gathered on the school field beside the camp.

At this time, the sky was not yet bright, and there was a mist, and the air was a little cool.

On the high platform in front of the school field stood a big man with a black face, he should be the high school lieutenant that the fat man mentioned.

After the roll call, more than 300 auxiliary soldiers did not come to the school grounds to gather.

Some of the more than 300 auxiliary soldiers picked up arrows outside the city yesterday and died in the hands of monsters that hadn't completely died. Some of them didn't complete yesterday's mission, didn't get food, didn't survive last night...

The fat man sighed, and said in a low voice, "I don't know when this day will end. I really hope that those monsters will be wiped out soon..."

Yu Ran didn't say anything. At this time, Lieutenant Gao Gao had already ordered dinner.

The breakfast for the auxiliary soldiers was a hard cornbread and a bowl of porridge with no white rice in sight.

All of them were chomping on a bowl of hot water and gnawing on the buns.

Not a single one complained.

There was a kind of silence throughout the camp.

After breakfast, the auxiliary soldiers were immediately dragged to the city wall to start their day's work.

The crane that was originally moved was broken, and they had to rely on manpower to move the weapons that had been sorted out yesterday to the [-]-meter-high city wall.

There are also those rolling logs and boulders brought over last night to stop the siege...

On the way to the city wall with the auxiliary barracks, Yu Ran asked Gao Gao Lieutenant for leave to go to the city gate. He originally thought that Gao Gao Lieutenant would not agree.

This is completely incompatible with the black-hearted boss that the fat man said!
However, Yu Ran didn't find last night's defender at the city gate, which made him a little disappointed.

He originally thought that his fate would be changed because of those defenders, but who knew he would be dove?
Then let Chef Xue make him a bowl of spiritual porridge last night?Also asked if he can write?And told him to come here in the morning?

Yu Ran was very speechless, but he didn't have any complaints. If there were no guards last night, he would have died in a stinky ditch long ago.

Now, after waiting for a while at the gate of the city, the sky gradually brightened, but he still didn't see the soldiers guarding the city last night, so Yu Ran had no choice but to leave the city gate, return to the auxiliary barracks, and carry arrows and equipment with the fat man...

It took seven or eight times in the morning to finally complete the task. Yu Ran sat slumped at the base of the wall, feeling unprecedented hardship, and it was difficult to even lift a finger.

This body is really too bad. If it wasn't for the strengthening of the spiritual porridge last night, he wouldn't be able to persist today.

"Ayi, why do I feel that you are different now? It seems that you are stronger than before. Before you moved something, you were too tired to move after a while. Today, you have carried it seven or eight times without crying!"

The fat man sat next to Yu Ran, leaning against the wall, he found a hard sweet potato out of nowhere, and handed half of it to Yu Ran.

"Thank you."

Yu Ran was not polite, took half of the sweet potato, ate it in two or three bites, glanced at the fat man, and said: "When you walk through the gate of hell, you will want to live even more."

The fat man scratched the top of his head, not knowing how to answer, so he lowered his head and ate sweet potatoes to fill his empty stomach.

This sweet potato was secretly rewarded to him by the recording captain when he was arranging the arrows last night. He ate it seriously and enjoyed it, as if he was eating some delicacies from mountains and seas...

Yu Ran leaned against the wall, looked at the fat man, and was very moved. He knew how precious the food was at this time, especially for the auxiliary soldiers. It's a little oily.

A sweet potato is also a rare delicacy.

The eyes of the auxiliary soldiers around were fixed on the half sweet potato in the fat man's hand, and the four auxiliary soldiers got up and walked over, one of them shouted in a low voice: "Damn fat man, bring the sweet potato here."

The fat man looked up at the four auxiliary soldiers, with a look of fear in his eyes, stuffed the unfinished sweet potatoes into the armor, stuffed his mouth with sweet potato dregs, and shook his head vaguely: "Zhang Hu, this is me. food."

"What the hell, your skin is itchy, right? I've taken a fancy to it. It belongs to me. Hurry up and take out the sweet potatoes. Don't let me beat you." Zhang Hu shouted fiercely.

There were auxiliary soldiers around who stayed away from Fatty and Yu Ran, as if they were afraid of suffering disaster.

Not far away, there were several burly auxiliary soldiers looking at this side, one of them was brother Qing, the guard Yu Ran met when he returned to the auxiliary barracks last night.

However, this brother Qing didn't intend to help, he looked on coldly, as if he wanted to see how Yu Ran would deal with this matter.

The young man next to Brother Qing had a weed in his mouth, he laughed and said, "Ah Qing, I heard that you all called brothers last night, why don't you help?"

Brother Qing shook his head and said, "Zuo Long, didn't you go too? I know what you're thinking, I think the same as you."

"Hehe." Zuo Long sneered, and said, "Hearing is believing, seeing is believing, what kind of quality this kid is, I have to see it with my own eyes, not everyone is qualified to be my Zuo Long's brother."

When the two were talking, that Zhang Hu saw that the fat man refused to hand over the sweet potatoes, so he was ready to do it.

The fat man trembled with fear.

Yu Ran, who had been ignored all this time, suddenly asked, "Fatty, is our auxiliary barracks allowed to fight and kill people?"

"?"

Zhang Hu was stunned, turned to look at Yu Ran, who had thin arms and legs, and said with a sneer, "Boy, I know you, I heard that you met a monster when you went out of the city yesterday, and you killed the monster? Haha, such a nonsense thing , who do you think will believe it?"

"With your weak appearance, you can kill monsters?"

"I think you killed Amber and wanted to eat the food that the cart of arrows exchanged for, right?"

"You're talking nonsense." The cowering fat man said angrily, "Zhang Hu, don't spout blood here, Ah Yi is not such a person, and Amber is Ah Yi's father-in-law, how could he do such a thing!"

"Hehe, who knows? People are so close to each other. Anyway, only he knows about it, or what he says is what? Anyway, I don't believe that he can kill monsters. Besides, I heard that Amber has never wanted his daughter to kill monsters." Marry him!" Zhang Hu sneered.

After saying these words, the surrounding auxiliary soldiers immediately began to point fingers at Yu Ran, and everyone agreed with Zhang Hu's statement.

After all, Yu Ran does look too weak, he doesn't look like someone who can kill monsters at all...

The fat man gritted his teeth angrily, wanting to pounce on Zhang Hu and fight for his life.

Yu Ran looked at Zhang Hu thoughtfully, and said, "Are you here after me? Want to deliberately ruin my reputation? Why?"

Zhang Hu's face darkened, and he said expressionlessly: "I don't know what you're talking about, I'm just telling the truth."

"Xu Yi, be brave and admit it like a man. You were the one who killed Amber, didn't you?"

Not far away, Zuo Long pondered for two seconds, then suddenly turned his head to look to the left. Under the shadow of the corner, stood a young man with a somewhat gloomy face. The other party seemed to have noticed Zuo Long, and they looked at each other. There were sparks flying.

"Lin Feng, is that guy? Why did he instruct Zhang Hu to slander Xu Yi?" Zuo Long frowned. He felt that there was something inside that he didn't know.

It stands to reason that Xu Yi's matter would not affect Lin Feng's interests at all. Why did Lin Feng do this?
Brother Qing also frowned, things seemed to have become complicated!

Yu Ran, who was leaning against the wall to rest, also stood up slowly at this time. His thin body gave off a strong sense of oppression, so Zhang Hu took a step back anyway.

Zhang Hu seemed to realize that he was so cowardly and wanted to get back his position, but he heard Yu Ran say: "You suspect that I didn't kill the monster, you suspect that I killed Amber, haha..."

"No one else has seen this incident, and no one can prove it no matter how much I say, but I also know why you have this suspicion. You think I am too weak to kill monsters, right?"

The auxiliary soldiers around nodded subconsciously. They really thought so. This was also the convincing rhetoric Zhang Hu used to slander Yu Ran just now.

Yu Ran smiled, then stared at the ferocious Zhang Hu, and said, "If I can kill you, will it prove that Amber was killed by a monster, and I killed that monster?"

"Heh, do you want to duel with me?" Zhang Hu looked disdainful as if he had heard a big joke, "With your physique, I can kill you with one hand."

Yu Ran didn't respond, but looked at the auxiliary soldiers around him.

"If you can defeat Zhang Hu, we will trust you."

"That's right, Xu Yi, if you can kill a wounded monster, you should also be able to defeat Zhang Hu..."

Some auxiliary soldiers around shouted loudly.

They all began to believe Zhang Hu's words.

Yu Ran sneered, and said, "Is it a crime to kill someone? Will he be violated the laws of the army?"

"As long as the two of us are on the duel ring, we will be responsible for life and death, and the military law can't control it. Do you dare to go to the duel ring with me?" Zhang Hu sneered, with a bit of provocation and disdain in his words...
