God of Pets

Chapter 233 Fighting Side by Side
"Adjutant Chu." Lao Mo saluted quickly.

Li Jinting is the number one figure in the Beimangshan garrison. There are not many people in the entire Beimangshan military base who don’t know Adjutant Chu. Usually, Adjutant Chu is the one running around to handle any affairs between the major military bases and corps.

"Old Chu, why are you here?" Chen Guan and Adjutant Chu were already very familiar with each other, and they called each other that way from then on.

"Chen Guan, the commander asked me to come and see you, to see if you are used to it here and if you need anything... The commander has also prepared some daily necessities for you..." Adjutant Chu said as he asked his men to unload all the things on the horses' backs and move them to Chen Guan's dormitory at the sentry post.

Lao Mo was very surprised when he saw this situation. Adjutant Chu was so polite to Chen Guan, and Li Jinting even gave Chen Guan gifts. This was a bit too exaggerated.

Jiu Yue was also surprised. Looking at Chen Guan and Adjutant Chu talking in the distance, Jiu Yue asked puzzledly, "Old Mo, what exactly is Chen Guan's background? How could he be standing guard here if he has such strong connections?"

"Don't ask too much about other people's affairs. We can't afford to offend such people anyway, so just treat them well." Lao Mo glanced over there, then switched shifts with Jiu Yue and let Jiu Yue go eat first.

"Adjutant Chu, I just gave you the snake skin not long ago, why is it not enough again? Those ladies have such a big appetite." Chen Guan deliberately pointed at Adjutant Chu.

Adjutant Chu was stunned for a moment and thought to himself, "Oh no! Chen Guan actually knows the true use of the Emperor Pulse Ghost Eye Python skin. I'm afraid it won't be so easy to get snake skin from him in the future. I'll definitely have to raise the price for him."

"Who says it's not? Commander Li is in a difficult position too. It's hard to decide who to give and who not to give. In the eyes of those ladies, we are just little bugs who can crush us with just a few words. No one dares to offend them. Asking for money is also very difficult. If they remember, they give a little. If they don't remember, we dare not ask for it. Isn't it frustrating?"

Adjutant Chu changed the subject and said, "By the way, Chen Guan, I didn't come to see you today because of this matter. The commander really wanted to help you because he was worried about the hardships you're having here, so he asked me to bring you some daily necessities."

"Then everything is fine?" Chen Guan asked with a smile.

"You tell me about it. I can't deny it." Adjutant Chu smiled broadly, "But it's not our commander's business, it's yours."

"My business? What could possibly happen to me?" Chen Guan asked doubtfully.

"There are no outsiders here. Tell me honestly, did you know that our Beimangshan Military District is going to develop the Qilin Mountains, so you chose to be a sentry here?" Adjutant Chu asked directly.

"I don't know, is this place going to be developed?" Chen Guan frowned slightly.

"Don't you know that this area is going to be developed? Why are you here as a sentry?" Adjutant Chu looked incredulous.

"I was assigned here." Chen Guan thought for a moment and said, "I'm a sentry at the outpost. Even if there's development, it's none of my business. You can't let sentries go into the mountains to fight, right?"

Adjutant Chu smiled bitterly and said, "Don't you know? When developing a new area, the outposts at the forefront of that area, because they have the best understanding of the area, need to cooperate with the pioneering corps. You will all be temporarily transferred to the pioneering corps."

"There are eight great kings in this mountain. Are you sure you want to develop this place?" Chen Guan knew his position must have been deliberately arranged by someone, otherwise it wouldn't be such a coincidence that he was assigned here. "The eight great kings' sphere of influence is only the Yellow Spring River. We are developing the mountains next to the Yellow Spring River, which will not affect the eight great kings."

Adjutant Chu paused and continued, "The temporary Reclamation Corps is mainly composed of soldiers and officers drawn from the Fiery Corps. Commander Lin Yushen has been transferred to lead the Reclamation Corps, with Xiu Haofeng as the deputy commander. Since your relationship with Xiu Haofeng is so bad, I'm afraid he might target you. You must be prepared."

"Can you transfer me away?" Chen Guan wanted to spend his days practicing martial arts and didn't want to take the risk of opening up new land. It was too dangerous.

"You can't be transferred, otherwise the commander wouldn't have asked you to stand guard here." Adjutant Chu said with a wry smile, "If you need anything, send me a message. I'll do my best to help you. You don't have to worry too much. Lin Yushen is considered neutral. With him as the leader of the pioneering team, Xiu Haofeng can't deal with you openly. You just need to be on guard against his underhanded tactics."

Chen Guan chatted with Adjutant Chu for a few more words. Adjutant Chu told him that the pioneering corps would be formed in a few days and asked him to be careful.

"Are the good days over so soon?" Chen Guan sighed secretly, seizing this last good time. Apart from standing guard, sleeping and fishing, he also spent his time there.

Chen Guan himself was not good at fishing, but with the help of the golden-eyed turtle, the fish were driven towards him, so it was difficult for him not to catch any fish.

Chen Guan knew that the Eighth King had sent his younger brother to help him as a gesture of goodwill.

Chen Guan deserved it well. He took the benefits first and raised his pets while fishing. In the past few days, he raised Yanzhi to level 13, Guiyan to level 12, and shed his skin again. The paper man was still level 8. It upgraded too slowly, and he didn't know if there was any way to make it upgrade quickly.

Ming Fei is rarely summoned because her level does not require wasting elixirs and resources. As long as Chen Guan's level is raised, Ming Fei's level can be raised under the effect of the dual cultivation method.

Unfortunately, Chen Guan's level was rising too slowly, so Ming Fei's level naturally could not be raised.

Early in the morning, Chen Guan had just gotten up and pushed the door open when he saw a woman riding a fire unicorn standing by the Yellow Springs River. The morning light shone on the river, and the rising mist refracted the sunlight to form a rainbow-like halo, which happened to be reflected on Ji Nanhong's back, making her look like a saint bathing in divine light. It was truly infinitely beautiful.

"You've suffered a lot during this period. You've done so well. Father has agreed that we can try to be together." Ji Nanhong rolled off Huo Qilin and came to Chen Guan's side. She took Chen Guan's hand and said apologetically, "I know it's been difficult for you during this period. I really want to help you, but if I help you, then we will never be together again. Can you forgive me?"

"You don't need forgiveness, because you did nothing wrong. You just need to trust me." Chen Guan reached out and stroked Ji Nanhong's cheek, saying with a smile.

"Yeah." Ji Nanhong's cheeks flushed. "Fortunately, everything is over. From now on, we can fight side by side. Father has promised me that as long as we can take over the Qilin Mountains, we can form a corps of our own, a corps that truly belongs to us. This is the first step for us to control the Heavenly Court Army, and it is also a very important step. After all, everything is difficult at the beginning."

"What do you mean we took over the Qilin Mountains? Didn't the pioneering army take over the Qilin Mountains?" Chen Guan heard the contradiction in Ji Nanhong's words.

"The previously developed areas are already occupied by military units. If we want to form a new military unit, we must have a new base. Therefore, we need to take the Qilin Mountains as our base. However, the Xiu family also has the qualifications to take the Qilin Mountains. It depends on which of us makes the greater contribution. Whoever is qualified to form a new military unit in the Qilin Mountains." Ji Nanhong's eyes were full of determination: "I believe that as long as the two of us are together, we can overcome all difficulties and take over the Qilin Mountains."
