Chapter 181 Shangluo Zhu Family Sword
After the interrogation, Tang Jiusheng tapped the acupuncture points of Yu Taiwu, the stall owner of Dongwei, and rested half on the bed for an hour. When he opened his eyes, it was already bright. After everyone washed up and had breakfast, they left Qian'an Town and walked along the road.
Along the official road, we headed towards Yong'an. In addition to the escorted Kuangying, there was another Yu Taiwu in the carriage. Fortunately, the rest of the road was basically plain, with a wide field of vision, so it was not that easy to ambush the cavalry.
He Chunju, the doctor of the Ministry of Punishment, was still in a lack of interest. He held the imperial edict in his arms and even took the mad eagle with him, but he failed to complete the task of killing Su Qingtong. Even if he returned to the capital, he might not be able to eat anything good. He originally thought that he had returned to the capital as agreed.
He could be promoted and receive rewards, but the reality was so cruel that he no longer wanted to think about this issue anymore.
Tang Jiusheng, who was riding on the horse, suppressed the irritability in his heart. In addition to the Luoyu Pavilion and Wanshouju hidden in the dark, even Dongwei also came in to intervene. Last night, he encountered a big anger again, which means that the Pingxi Palace has also taken action. Now
We also have to escort He Chunju, Kuang Ying, and Yu Taiwu who was captured last night. When we go to Beijing next, we have to face Yin Guang, and we also have to face Daxia's swordsman mission. Who is an easy master to get along with?
?
Holding down the Minglong Dao hanging on his waist, Tang Jiusheng's face sank like water. People in the world cannot help themselves, but at the age of fifteen, they have to bear such responsibilities. Is this a test, a kind of tempering? Tang Jiusheng
Suddenly he laughed wildly, clamped the horse's belly with his legs, and galloped away from the cavalry. Since ancient times, heroes have emerged from youth. Since a great responsibility has been assigned to me, how can I bear to disappoint God?
Shui Ruyue hurriedly urged her horse to follow, and while chasing, she asked with a smile from a distance, "Little Junior Brother, where are you going?" Tang Jiusheng turned around and said with a smile, "Little Junior Sister, this unicorn horse has not had a good time in many days.
I'll ride it around for a while and meet you again in the evening. The horse team will be left to you and Fatty to take care of you. If there's an emergency, set off some fireworks for me and I'll rush back to support you!"
Shui Ruyue agreed with a smile, turned her horse's head and returned to the team. Ximen Yushuang asked with concern: "Yue'er, what are you doing, sir? Why didn't you even say hello?"
Shui Ruyue smiled and said: "My husband has something that he can't figure out. He wants to go out alone and be quiet. Don't worry about him. As long as no one attacks the cavalry, let him go. He won't be too far away from us. Wait.
He will come back after he figures it out, maybe he is using himself as bait!"
Tang Jiusheng's sudden departure did not disrupt the speed of everyone's march. The team continued to move forward and had entered Shangluo County. At noon, the horse team passed a large village, Zhujiaji, which was located on a small gentle slope.
The scale is not small, with two to three thousand households connected by thousands of houses with tiled roofs. There are inns, restaurants, and two small streets in the village. The official road runs directly through the village. Although it is called a village, it is smaller than the border areas of Liaodong.
The town is even more prosperous.
Shui Ruyue said hello to the fat man, and everyone had a meal at Zhujiaji at noon and rested for a while. After all, it was already summer, and it was too hot to go on the road at noon. So everyone found a restaurant on the small street on the left side of the official road.
I ordered some food at the larger Xiangsheng Restaurant. While waiting for the food, Fatty was bored and said hello to Shui Ruyue and Ximen Yushuang, and took Song Yulan and Su Yiwen to stroll on the street.
In the past few days, the fat man and the girl Su Yiwen became more and more familiar. The two big eaters had the same temperament, and the fat man gave Su Yiwen a nickname.
She gave her a homophonic name, Su Yiwen, and joked that the betrothal gift would be one cent. Su Qingtong, Su Yiwen’s father, couldn’t laugh or cry. If he had known this, he would have named his daughter Su Qianjin, Su Wanjin, etc.
.How good it is now, just one penny was spent.
The fat man was wandering on the street with his two fiancées, but he saw a group of people gathered around, shouting something lively and cheering. The fat man became curious and walked over with his two fiancées.
When I got closer, I saw that there were people performing tricks there, a fat boy in gray clothes and a skinny boy in black clothes.
The thin boy of thirteen or fourteen had just finished his sword-swallowing performance, and everyone cheered and rewarded him with money. The slightly older fat boy showed off his two swords again, and saw the light of the swords flashing, and the two swords danced gracefully. What a sweep.
, chopping, plucking, cutting, plundering, stabbing, cutting, thrusting, the sword skills are exquisite, and it looks like they have been instructed by famous experts. The fat man has always been good at martial arts, so he couldn't help but cheer in the crowd, "Good sword skills!"
"
Unexpectedly, someone in the crowd sneered, "This is considered a good swordsmanship? Do you dare to fight with me, Mr. Zhu?" Everyone looked around, and it turned out that he was also a boy of fourteen or fifteen years old, wearing a blue martial arts uniform.
, carrying a single sword on his back, and he looked very impressive, and he seemed to be a martial artist. When the onlookers saw the young man carrying a sword, they shouted and ran away. They were all scared away.
In an instant, only the fat man and his two fiancées were left on the street, as well as the fat man and the thin man who were doing tricks, and the young man in Tsing Yi who was carrying a single sword. The fat man looked at the young man in Tsing Yi up and down, and said with a smile: "Boy
, your surname is Zhu? Are you sure your swordsmanship is better than his, and you are not bragging?"
The young man in Tsing Yi who was carrying a single sword looked arrogant and said disdainfully: "With his sword skills, the little boy from my Zhu family who has just studied martial arts for three years is not weaker than him!" Then he pointed at the fat boy who was performing arts and said, "Little boy.
Fatty, you dare to show off your skills at the Zhujiaji, and you obviously don't take our Shangluo Zhu family seriously! Since you dare to provoke here, you must have some skills. Come on, let's fight with you, Young Master Zhu.
Give it a try!”
The little fat man with the double sword had a confused face. He obviously hadn't understood what was going on, but his intuition told him that the young man in green clothes in front of him was not easy to mess with, so he stepped forward with a smile on his face, cupped his hands and said, "This little brother,
This little brother is also the first to come to Guibao. I don’t know the name of the Zhu family in Shangluo. I hope that you, my dear brother, will come to you in large numbers and show your respect. Since you can’t use knives here, I will accept it immediately, little brother!”
The fat man immediately remembered that the ancestors of the Zhu family in Shangluo County in the north were good at swordsmanship. This had been passed down for eighteen generations and had been famous in the martial arts world for three to four hundred years. The current head of the Zhu family, Zhu Jiafu, was known as the best swordsman in the north of the river.
First, when martial arts people who use swords arrive in Shangluo County, they will not take the initiative to show their swords to show respect for the Zhu family. These two young men who were performing tricks obviously did not know this rule, so they angered Qing Yi
juvenile.
The young man in green glared, "It's too late! How dare you use a knife in Zhujiaji without asking before you come? I think you are just looking for a beating! Do you know who I am? The second young master of the Zhu family, Zhu Congwu, is known as Dao.
This is the invincible little overlord! Boy, if you can defeat the Second Young Master Zhu today, you can leave. If you lose, stay in my Zhu family and be a servant guarding the gate!"
Seeing Zhu Congwu, the second young master of the Zhu family, uttering arrogant words, the little fat man wielding two swords became very angry, "Second young master Zhu, as the saying goes, he who doesn't know is not guilty! If he is a little bit ignorant, he will not be guilty."
I know that Zhujiaji cannot use knives, but I still dare to show off with knives here. That is indeed my fault. But I don’t care about anything outside the window and just focus on practicing swordsmanship. I have only entered the world for less than a month, and
I don’t know the rule that people in the world are not allowed to use knives when they come to Zhujiaji!"
Zhu Congwu glared and said: "Boy, don't talk nonsense, I don't care what you said! As long as you break the rules, you have to follow my path! What is your name? Tell me your name and I will fight with you.
A fight! If you win, you leave, if you lose, you stay and become a slave of my Zhu family!"
The fat man on the side was very unhappy when he heard this. He thought that this kid named Zhu was unreasonable and unforgiving. When people from the Jianghu family arrived in Shangluo County, it was a sign of respect for the Zhu family that they would not use their swords. Respecting the Zhu family is a good thing.
I defend the chivalrous demeanor of fellow martial artists, but I am not afraid of you, the Zhu family! There are many famous swordsmen in the world, and they are all like you, so that’s okay!
The fat man was also watching the excitement and didn't mind it, so he stepped forward and encouraged: "Come on, little fat man, come here. You see, although you are not as fat as me, you are still a little fat man. We are both fat."
For my sake, Fatty, I will make the decision for you. You just have to compete with the second young master of the Zhu family. If you win, you go. If you lose, Fatty will let you go. I will go to the head of the Zhu family to argue with you. What do you think?
"
The little fat man wearing a gray short coat and wielding two swords widened his eyes and looked the fat man up and down. He didn't believe what he said. After a while, he asked timidly: "You won't team up with him to lie to me, will you?
When the time comes, my master will beat me if he knows that I have casually fought with others!"
The fat man laughed loudly, "Little fat man, what's your name? Fat man, my real name is Jiang Zhenyu, and people in the world give me the nickname Jiang Bula! That's a famous young master. Fat man, I have a brother, and he is even more famous in the world.
, his name is Tang Jiusheng, the master of the Minglong Sword! He is also wandering around here now. If you are worried, he will come out when the fat man roars, and I don’t believe that the head of the Zhu family will not give him face!"
When Zhu Congwu in green heard this, his eyes widened again, "Hey, fat man named Jiang, who is your friend? Tang Jiusheng, the master of the Minglong Sword?! That's great. In the past two months, his name has been ringing in my ears."
I have always wanted to meet him, but I have never been able to find the opportunity. Since he is here, call him out quickly. Master Zhu Er wants to compete with him in a knife competition. If he loses, the Minglong Sword will be mine.
!”
The fat man glanced sideways at Zhu Congwu, "You still want to compete with Tang Jiusheng with your strength, which is not even at the peak of the fourth and third levels? He will kill you with one strike! Boy, if you really want to fight, Fatty
I will accompany you. If you can survive under Fatty for three chapters, Fatty will take your surname! If you lose, how about being a pawn for Fatty and a general who can carry the hammer?"
Zhu Congwu was furious and said, "Okay! Fatty Jiang, if you can defeat me, I will carry the hammer for you, so what! As the saying goes, I would rather lead a horse and put a stirrup on a hero than be an ancestor to a laihan!
But what if you are going to lose? You have to call Tang Jiusheng out, and I want to compete with him! If you lose, you stay, and the knife stays!"
The fat man clapped his hands and said with a smile: "Okay, boy! Let's just say this. Whoever loses and cheats will be his son. Do you dare to swear an oath?"
Chapter completed!
