Traveling through troubled times: Princess disguises herself as a man and becomes a soldier to earn
Chapter 8: Going to the Haunted Forest to Chop Wood
"Tell me, are you convinced? From now on, call me boss, okay? If you don't obey, I will beat you to death."
Lin Xiao wanted to cry but had no tears. Who could have thought that a little dwarf could be so cruel? His face hurt so much...
He struggled to open his eyes, which were only a crack away, and begged for mercy: "Boss, Centurion, I was wrong. I won't dare to do it again. If you say east, I will definitely not go west. Stop hitting me. If you hit me again, I won't be able to marry a wife."
Jiang Li nodded in satisfaction, clapped his hands and said, "Well, I am a person who protects people. If you listen to me, if you are bullied in the future, I will seek justice for you even if it is the king of heaven."
"Okay, go to the military doctor and get your wounds treated. Don't look for me. I don't have the money to treat you."
After saying that, he jumped down from the martial arts training ground, walked in front of Mo Yuan, raised his head and said proudly: "Major General, what do you think? I have the ability to be the centurion. Your food will not be given for nothing."
Mo Yuan looked at the man who was begging for praise. If he had a tail behind him, it would probably stick up. He was such a simple person, and he could understand him at first glance. He was a little silly, but he didn't despise him.
His tone was somewhat amused: "Well, very impressive. From now on, these 100 people will be handed over to you for training. This general will not interfere. You can train them in your own way."
Jiang Li looked at him with appreciation. He was a leader who knew how to delegate power. He was a good leader. The key was that he trusted her so much. He was much better than the stingy leader in her previous life who even said that she was stupid.
Sure enough, her talent can be discovered even across time and space.
"Well, don't worry, Major General. I will definitely train them well."
When everyone saw the look in his eyes, they felt a sudden chill on their backs. They felt that they would have no good days in the future. That was too terrible. How could they not want such a centurion?
Mo Yuan hooked his finger and said, "Xiao San, since you are already a centurion, you naturally have to change your residence. This general will give you a smaller tent, and you can live there alone."
Jiang Li looked at him with bright eyes and nodded his head like a chick pecking at rice.
"Okay, thank you, Major General. You are such a good person. You will definitely become rich and powerful in the future."
"…If you don't know how to use words, don't use them randomly. Follow me, General. I'll have someone take you to your own tent and your own things. Go back and pack them up."
"Yes"
Jiang Li watched his back going away, he was so happy that he wanted to sing a song, but then he remembered that he was tone-deaf, so he gave up. There was no rush, it would not be too late to sing later. It would not be worth it if he scared the little brother he just recruited to death.
After a stick of incense
After returning to the original tent and entering, those people fell silent instantly.
Jiang Li waved his hands: "What are you afraid of? I'm not unreasonable. If you don't provoke me, you won't get beaten."
"By the way, I have some bad news for you. I've been promoted to centurion. I'll have my own separate tent and won't live with you anymore. So, are you reluctant to leave me?"
There was a glimmer of excitement in the sturdy man's eyes.
Jiang Li saw it, his eyes turned, and he bared his teeth in a somewhat cold tone: "Oh, you are very happy, right? I almost forgot, if you dare to bully others again in the future, be careful that I will chop off the root of evil."
His gaze moved down to his crotch, his eyes narrowed, revealing a hint of coldness.
The terrified man shook his head repeatedly, covering a certain part of his body. “No, I don’t dare. Don’t worry, Boss Jiang. I will never bully Meng Fei again. If I do it again, I will… let me die miserably.”
Jiang Li hummed, his tone calm: "That's good, you'd better remember this if you don't want to become a eunuch."
He walked in front of Meng Fei and deliberately raised his voice: "Meng Fei, if any of them dare to bully you, just come to me. I will make sure they can never get up again. Without the source of trouble, I wonder how they can bully others."
This little friend is very nice. When she first arrived, he talked a lot and helped her understand the world better.
Meng Fei looked at him eagerly: "Okay, I get it. Congratulations on becoming a centurion now. If you make meritorious contributions on the battlefield in the future, you will definitely be promoted to a high position."
Jiang Li nodded. She didn't care much about becoming successful. She just wanted to have endless food to eat. Nothing else mattered.
"Then I'm leaving. You two should get along well. Goodbye."
"……goodbye"
After returning to his own independent tent, Jiang Li felt around. In his previous life, he just found a place to live alone. Unexpectedly, after coming to this world, his treatment became much better.
Jiang Li lowered his head and smelled, and found that his body smelled. He opened the curtain and shouted, "Where can I get some hot water? I want to take a shower."
The guard said respectfully, "Captain Jiang, there are rules for using hot water in the army. Only lieutenants and above can use it. If you want to use it if you are below the rank of lieutenant, you can either find firewood to burn it yourself or get permission from the general."
...meaning that his military rank was not enough to qualify for hot water.
The guard knew that the major general valued him and was afraid that he would be angry, so he explained: "Captain Jiang, please don't be angry. It's not the major general's fault for giving the order. The army is really short of food and firewood, and there are more than a dozen centurions."
"If we need hot water, it will cost a lot of firewood. This place is remote and it's hard to cut firewood. We have to transport it back from the Ghost Forest every time, which is very laborious."
Jiang Li was not angry. She understood the principle that there is no order without rules. She hummed, "It's okay. I'm not angry. Where is the ghost forest? Can I chop wood and exchange it with the cook for hot water?"
The guard pointed and said, "A mile from here is the Ghost Forest. It's a bit dangerous there, with wolves often roaming around. If the centurion wants to go there to chop wood, it's best to call two more people."
…If there are wolves, then there must be meat. She wanted to eat meat so much that she was going crazy. She swallowed unconsciously and looked at him with bright eyes: "Are you sure there are really wolves?"
"Centurion, are you okay? The wolves are dangerous. You don't want to kill them."
Jiang Li shook his head: "No, just kill a few and eat them, and keep the rest. You can kill them whenever you want to eat them. You can't kill them all at once, otherwise you won't have anything to eat in the future."
guard:……??
He must not have woken up today, how could he have hallucinations? That was a wolf from the Ghost Forest, ferocious and cunning. If you encounter it, you will be either dead or injured. Is this guy stupid? He still wants to eat wolf meat.
Jiang Li glanced at the sky and didn't want to waste any more time, so she asked Wang Dashan for an axe and quickly ran towards the Ghost Forest. If she could chop wood early and come back, she could have a good bath in the evening and live a luxurious life.
It’s great that there is no shortage of water here. She doesn’t have to exchange food with water-powered people. What a wonderful world.
After leaving the military camp, he looked around and saw no one. He used his special power and disappeared in a few flashes.
A quarter of an hour later, looking at the dense forest, Jiang Li walked in, found the dead trees and started chopping them. Soon, more than ten dead trees fell down.
