It's the beauty that brings disaster. I'm also desperate.

"What's the emergency?"

"There is a vacancy for a caretaker in the first-grade slave area of ​​the training ground. Lord Cheng needs to arrange it personally."

The man was one of the managers of the training ground.

Training ground.

It is the place where ghosts train elite soldiers. No matter whether they are ghost soldiers of the seventh or first rank, they can challenge human warrior slaves in the training ground... The winner will be rewarded, and the loser will have his soul destroyed.

Correspondingly, warrior slaves have also become a very important strategic resource.

Low-grade ones are not a big deal, but warrior slaves of the top three grades are hard to find.

There is only one training ground in the city, shared by the four Yin generals...

The warrior slaves inside are divided into four groups and belong to the four Yin clans.

The general manager of the training ground of Lu Man's unit is Cheng Qian, the middle-aged man's immediate superior. But yesterday evening, the battle between Renwang Castle and Shangbai Castle suddenly broke out, and Cheng Qian had already followed Lu Man to the frontline battlefield.

Something happened at the training ground at this time, and the manager couldn't contact Cheng Qian at all.

In desperation, he had to come to Xiang Yi and contact her through her identity and authority.

"What is slave quarters care?"

Before Xiang Yi could reply, Xia Li suddenly asked.

It was the first time she heard this word. The word "slave" made her think of something, so she wanted to understand it clearly...

"Excuse me, your Excellency, are you......?"

The steward was stationed at the training ground, so he didn't know Xia Li.

But the man was not stupid, he knew Xiang Yi lived in Meiyuan, and this was Taoyuan. The other party's clothing and temperament could not be a maid.

Therefore, his attitude and tone were very respectful.

"Manager Zheng, she is the new Madam Sheng. Just answer whatever she asks you truthfully."

Xiang Yi immediately jumped out to show off.

"Yes!"

"Madam Sheng... The area where warrior slaves are held in the training ground is divided by rank, with a total of seven slave areas. Each slave area has a caretaker who is responsible for cleaning the cells, delivering meals, and escorting them back and forth."

Manager Zheng answered all the questions in detail.

After listening to the introduction, Xia Li almost understood.

There are many human warriors imprisoned in the training ground. They have been called slaves, so naturally they have no freedom. These warriors exist specifically to train elite Yin soldiers, but the higher the quality of the warriors, the harder it is to capture them.

Therefore.

There are also special caregivers...

--Huh?

Thinking of this, Shengsheng suddenly reacted.

——Opportunity!

Didn't the other party say that there was a shortage of people to guard the first-grade slave area? In that case, could she fill the vacancy and use this position to secretly contact the first-grade warriors... Even though she was captured, she is a first-grade warrior after all.

We should be very clear about the pattern of this era, especially the human side.

and.

Now that she has reached the third rank of cultivation, as long as she can figure out the current situation in Xizhou, there is no need for her to stay in Renwang City.

My cheap dad's inner strength...

As her cultivation progressed by leaps and bounds, the Heart Method had become her top priority. Shengsheng had to find out where her father was. She wanted to see his body... No, she wanted to see his soul.

There's no use seeing a corpse.

"Sister, can you arrange a caretaker position at the training ground?"

Sheng Sheng, who had made up her mind to come into contact with the human warriors, leaned close to Mei Yinhun's ear and whispered.

When she asks for help, her voice is so sweet.

but.

Only now did she call me sister affectionately, and when she didn't need it anymore, she even called me by my full name...

Chapter 43 You bastard!

"sure."

When Shengsheng asked, Xiang Yi replied immediately.

The girl called her sister in a sweet voice, which made the beautiful ghost so happy that her eyebrows were raised a little.

"Manman and Cheng Qian are not here, so I have the decision-making power in both the mansion and the training ground."

"but......"

"But what?"

Seeing Xiang Yi looking embarrassed, Xia Li immediately asked.

"The job of guarding the slave quarters is not a respectable one. Even the servants in the mansion look down on it. My sister is a lady, and I'm afraid it will damage her reputation if she becomes a guard."

"Well, sister has a point."

Xia Li didn't care about the lady's reputation at all, but she was asking someone to do something for her, so she couldn't directly contradict the other party. She pretended to think about it and admitted that the other party was right.

Doing so shows your respect and affirmation...

Then the twist won't be so abrupt.

of course.

This was just Xia Li's little trick. She felt that even if she rejected Xiang Yi bluntly, the other party would not be angry, but it would never be nice to do so.

In fact, the relationship between people is built from these small details... Even if they are tools, they must be carefully cared for.

Why did Hua Shuangxue obey her back then and come to grab the marriage without any regrets after being rejected?

It was she who usually took the other person's emotions into consideration.

——One may suddenly do a bad thing even though it is small, and suddenly refrain from doing a good thing even though it is small.

Although this sentence is about being a human being, the same applies to the maintenance of tool workers.

"Ah~, what Mr. Lu Xun said is so right."

Shengsheng secretly sighed in his heart...

"Sister, let's do this."

"I have kept my lack of care a secret, so don't tell Lord Lu Man and the others for now. I will stop doing this when the war subsides... This will not affect my reputation, what do you think?"

In order to find out the situation on the human side, the girl made every effort.

These words are not spoken casually.

The battle between the two cities would take at least a month, so she could use this time to find out more. If she took office tomorrow and was ordered to cancel the battle by Lu Man or Cheng Qian the day after tomorrow, how could she find out more?

This approach not only solved Xiang Yi's concerns, but also achieved her own goals...

It’s the best of both worlds!

really.

After Xia Li said this, Xiang Yi no longer refused.

Xiang Yi was not good at calculating, so she naturally didn't think much about why Sheng Sheng wanted to be a caregiver. She probably just was curious about human warrior slaves.

However, when Manager Zheng came to report, he saw the two ladies deciding who would take care of the slave area, and his expression changed several times...

But it seemed as if for some reason, he couldn't speak.

In the end, that's how it was decided.

Just as Shengsheng wished.

Because of Xiang Yi's support today, Xia Li specially accompanied her for breakfast and spoke to her in a rare sweet and gentle manner.

of course.

She wouldn't eat snake soup, so she drank some other porridge...

After the girl's gentle attack, Mei Yinhun was already mesmerized and overwhelmed, and she felt that her relationship with Fang Shengsheng had suddenly become much closer.

It must be because I specially stirred the soup for him with my bare hands this morning.

If I keep working hard, I will soon be able to replace Manman and take Fang away... No, no! This is the only thing I absolutely cannot do. What on earth am I thinking?

......

The next day, I will deal with him and make him promise not to report the nursing matter.

Shengsheng leisurely rode in a carriage to the Niou Castle training ground.

The attendants driving the carriage and the several palace guards following the carriage might have Cheng Qian's men, but now is an extraordinary period, and these servants have no right to pass on information to the Yin generals and commanders on the battlefield...

As long as I don't report it to him, the secret will be kept secret.

Even if Lu Man or Cheng Qian knew about it a month later, Sheng Sheng would not be afraid, after all, she had already achieved her goal.

Who knows, he might have already slipped away by then!

"Ma'am, please."

Manager Zheng was very sensible and arrived outside the training ground early to wait and greet Xia Li.

However, his respect did not win any good.

The girl frowned slightly and put on the airs of Madam Sheng.

"...I told you yesterday, you can just call me Fang Shengsheng in front of others, and you don't have to show respect."

"Please punish me, madam. It was my negligence."

Manager Zheng quickly apologized.

He didn't dare to be careless. Facing Xia Li at this moment, he suddenly had a feeling that the other party was very different from what he saw yesterday.

Yesterday, I saw him getting along with Madam Yi. He was speaking softly and was gentle... But now he seemed much colder. Although he looked rough, he had seen a lot of people as a manager in the training ground.

He had a hunch that Fang Shengsheng was definitely not an easy character to deal with!

I became more cautious.

"Okay, stop standing here."

"While we're walking, tell me about this training ground..."

"Yes!"

Manager Zheng immediately agreed.

Following the middle-aged man's narration, Shengsheng gradually came up with an idea.

This training ground in Niou Castle is said to be a place to train elite soldiers from various divisions, but in fact it is just one of its uses.

There is another more important and critical role...

Increase income!

To increase income for the city lord.

When they left Yunyin that day and passed the training ground, Shengsheng found that the area was extremely vast. Moreover, the building structure was open in the middle, with stands and seats around it... a bit like the Flavian Amphitheater, that is, the Colosseum in Rome.

At that time she felt that it might not be simple, and after hearing what Manager Zheng said, it turned out to be true.

original.

This training ground is not only for training soldiers. When elite ghost soldiers are fighting with human warrior slaves, many ghost dignitaries in the city will come to watch, including men, women, young and old.

After all, there is no entertainment in this era...

The training ground is similar to the Roman Colosseum in Shengsheng's memory!

natural.

The human warriors are the dangerous "beasts", while the ghost soldiers are the brave "gladiators".
