Chapter 80 Chapter Two

Next came the performance of riding and archery, all of which were brilliant and pleasing to the eye. It was obvious that Zhao Ba put a lot of effort into training his sons. Xiang Shao secretly called it a pity, if Zhao Guo hadn't produced a foolish king like Xiaocheng, there should be a lot to do. Ji Yanran leaned close to his ear and said cordially: "I can't take care of her anymore, and I will follow you from now on." Xiang Shaolong was taken aback, and said, "Is it a bit faster? You see that Lord Longyang is staring at us." Ji Yanran said with a smile: "He doesn't doubt us, but is jealous of Yanran. Everyone knows that man and woman love rough men like Mr. Dong, and he will be excited if you say a few more foul words to him! "

Xiang Shaolong smiled wryly and shook his head: "Let Dong pursue you for two or three more days! Otherwise, the handsome beauty will be cleaned up by men in a few moments, which will really damage the reputation of talented and beautiful women." Ji Yanran said angrily, "You can do whatever you want! But I want you to accompany him every night." Xiang Shaolong happily said: "Dong is exactly what he wants!" The drums kept ringing suddenly, and the warriors of the pavilion went back to sit on the mat opposite the stand, only Zhao Bali was in the center of the field.

Everyone stopped talking and looked at the owner of the samurai hotel. The drums stopped. Zhao Ba raised his voice and said: "It is a great honor for our library to invite Mr. Li Yuan, a world-renowned swordsman master, to come and give advice on your homework. I hope that Mr. Li Yuan will not hesitate to teach you." Guo Zong chuckled, and interjected: "This time it's all about learning from each other, please stop as soon as you can, I don't want to see the shocking scene of broken bones and flesh." He and Zhao Ba had the deepest friendship, so he naturally saw that Zhao Ba was really angry with Li Yuan's arrogance, so he relied on his status to persuade everyone on both sides.

Li Yuan smiled and said, "Don't worry, Mr. Guo, I'm just here to play with the mood of playing games, not to mention there are four beauties here! Don't worry, Mr. Guo." When he said this, everyone in the hotel showed an angry expression.You must know that martial arts are very popular in this era, and everyone regards martial arts and sword competition as a sacred event that is related to reputation, but he said that it is just a game, and the opponent is not in the eye. Zhao Mu probed over to inquire about Ji Yanran's thoughts, "Does Miss Ji think too much of Mr. Li Yuan's words?"

Han Chuang on the other side snorted, "Mr. Li is too crazy." Ji Yanran smiled and said, "But he does have extraordinary abilities, it's not because he speaks wild words." The two of them didn't expect that after she openly showed her kindness to the idiot, she would still help Li Yuan to speak, and they were speechless for a while. However, Xiang Shaolong thought that Ji Yanran had an independent mind and would not change his perception due to anyone, so unless he was better than Li Yuan, Xiang Shaolong would never be as good as Li Yuan in this aspect in her heart.

For this reason, it would be a pity for this beautiful woman who is strict with her husband. While he was thinking, the first teaching chair of the hotel had already stepped out of the arena, bowed his hands to Li Yuan and said: "Little man Dai Feng, please enlighten me, Mr. Li." Li Yuan looked Dai Feng up and down a few times, and said indifferently: "Dong Luzi, come down and play two hands with Brother Dai Feng!" Everyone roared, unexpectedly Li Yuan only sent his subordinates to fight, it was clear that Dai Feng was not yet qualified to challenge him. From Zhao Ba to the rest of the hotel, they all showed an expression of indignation.

Zhao Mu whispered next to Xiang Shaolong: "Oops! If Dai Feng loses, Zhao Ba may not be able to hold back and want to challenge Li Yuan himself." Ji Yanran said in Xiang Shaolong's ear: "These Dongluzi and Lou Wuxin are the most famous swordsmen under Li Yuan, and they are very famous in Chu State." Le Cheng from behind came up and said, "I've also heard about this Dong Luzi. It is said that he was born in the Chu Mo Guild. He once traveled around the world, looking for teachers and friends. Unexpectedly, he became a member of Li Yuan." At this time, a man in his twenties, as tall and thin as iron, with a white face and beardless, came down from the seat at Li Yuan's side, came up to Dai Feng, and said gently and politely: "Brother Dai give advice!"

After wearing the gift, You Erlang brought wooden swords and put on armor for the two of them to protect the vital points of the head, face, chest and lower body, lest the sword be ruthless and cause damage to the body.But this can only work if you show mercy.For sword masters, even wooden swords still have great lethality, even armor cannot stop them. The two swords exchanged blows in the air first, and after testing each other's strength, they backed away and assumed a door-to-door posture. The drum beat suddenly, then stopped again. Everyone held their breath and watched intently.

Dai Feng moved towards his opponent tentatively with his fighting steps, and swung his wooden sword powerfully, quite powerfully. On the other hand, Dong Luzi stood with his sword in his arms, motionless like a mountain, and just looked at Dai Feng coldly. Dai Feng took two steps back, suddenly shouted violently, lightning rushed forward, and the blade of the sword bounced into the air, quickly smashing and sweeping, making a howling sound piercing the air, which was unstoppable. Han Chuang and others cheered and cheered for him, and the people in the Samurai House cheered even more. On the contrary, everyone in Li Yuan sneered and looked confident.

At this time, Zhao Zhi, who was sitting on the other side of Li Yuan, couldn't help regretting.She showed her affection to Li Yuan, although she was attracted by Li Yuan's handsome conversation, but more importantly, it was because of Xiang Shaolong.But she is a member of the hotel after all, naturally she doesn't want her side to lose, but she sits next to Li Yuan, embarrassed to shout and cheer, extremely contradictory. Li Yuan obviously understood what was on her mind, and while everyone's eyes were on the field, he quietly reached out, held the catkin on her lap, and whispered softly next to her small ear: "For the sake of Miss, Li Yuan It will never hurt the people in your museum."

Zhao Zhijiao's body trembled, her mind was fuzzy, and she let him grasp it with her slender hands. Zhao Ya noticed the strange situation between the two of them, she walked over and said angrily, "Mr. Li, you are so caring!" Li Yuan leaned against the red and leaning on the green, feeling very happy in his heart, he said with a smile: "Doesn't Madam love Li Yuan's suave style?" Zhao Ya rolled his eyes at him, sat up straight, and Dong Kuang's heroic aura surged in her heart, she couldn't help but sighed.He wondered why he didn't take it seriously when he saw Li Yuan fooling around with other beauties, but just saw Ji Yanran sitting next to Dong Kuang, so he felt uncomfortable? With a sound of "Du!", Dongluzi deflected his sword horizontally, and at the same time moved across his steps, avoiding Dai Feng's second sword following him. Zhao Mu, Han Chuang, Le Cheng, etc. are all experts in using swords. One can tell at a glance that this Dong Luzi is not only as strong as Dai Feng, but also very clever in strategy. spirit. Sure enough, Dongluzi went on the defensive, and under the opponent's serial attacks, he couldn't stop moving. On the surface, Dai Feng had the upper hand, but in fact Dongluzi was not in danger, and was just waiting for a good time to counterattack. There were voices everywhere, all cheering for Dai Feng. Zhao Zhi suddenly came to his senses and wanted to withdraw his jade hand, but he didn't know that Li Yuan was holding on tightly, the back of his palm was still on her thigh, and he wiped her ear with his lips and said, "Miss Zhi hates Li?" Zhao Zhisheng felt guilty for betraying Xiang Shaolong and Dong Kuang, and lowered his pretty face and said, "Will others see it?" Li Yuan proudly said: "A man lives in the world, why not be afraid of other people's gossip, as long as the young lady doesn't dislike Li Yuan, Li can take on anything." This person is good at eloquence and knows how to please women. Even Ji Yanran almost fell in love with him. Zhao Zhi was inexperienced in men and women, and resented Dong Kuang's ruthlessness. Li Yuan also knew that this was a public occasion and shouldn't be overdone, so she secretly thought that she would be taken back to the hotel later so that she could have a good time.Therefore, no further frivolity was made. Guo Xiu'er next to Zhao Zhi has been paying attention to Li Yuan, and when she sees him flirting with Zhao Zhi, her pretty face changes color and she feels displeased. The defense between men and women in the Warring States Period was far from the prudence advocated by Confucianism after the Han Dynasty, but flirting with men and women in public was ultimately not in line with etiquette, and Guo Xiuer couldn't help but discounted Li Yuan's impression. At this moment, Xiang Shaolong's heart moved, he looked over at Li Yuan, and it happened that Li Yuan was also looking at him, even though there were more than ten seats away, Xiang Shaolong could still clearly see Li Yuan holding Zhao Zhi's catkin, and couldn't help it His eyes flashed sharply, and he flew into a rage. Seeing this, Li Yuan felt very proud and nodded with a smile. Zhao Zhi followed Li Yuan's gaze, met Xiang Shaolong's gaze, and suddenly thought of Xiang Shaolong, his heart trembled, he pulled his hand violently, and escaped from Li Yuan's clutches. Of course Li Yuan didn't know about his complex emotional relationship with Xiang Shaolong, and thought she was just tender and embarrassed, so he stroked her plump thighs twice with his backhand before he sat down, ignored Xiang Shaolong, and continued to watch the battle. Xiang Shaolong's face was ashen, and he cast his eyes on the battle situation on the field, anger welled up in his heart, and for the first time he wanted to challenge Li Yuan. Ji Yanran saw everything in her eyes, and whispered: "Don't be impulsive, if you hurt Li Yuan, it will be a small loss." These few words were like adding fuel to the flames, Xiang Shaolong managed to suppress his anger, and after a while of silence, he said to Zhao Mu: "Can you send someone to summon my general?" Zhao Mu understood immediately, and after asking who was summoned, he ordered them to go. At this time, Dai Feng fired at least forty swords, but he still couldn't do anything to Dong Luzi, and even the cheering cheers gradually weakened. Knowing that the time has come, Dong Luzi looked up to the sky with a smile, changed from defending to attacking, and grabbed the opponent's sword circle with his wooden sword upright. The rough and bold line that Dai Feng took, and the wide-open and wide-close swordsmanship were even more powerful and difficult to execute. Zhao Mu and the others sighed, even Zhao Ba, who had absolute confidence in Dai Feng, couldn't help frowning. Sitting next to Li Yuan, Zhao Zhi saw that his side was in danger, and came to his senses. He secretly blamed himself for being so disrespectful and taking advantage of Li Yuan.But when he left at this time, he was too obvious, and he was in a dilemma for a while. On the field, the two fought fiercely for a few more moves, Dai Feng's previous prestige was no longer seen, and he retreated in defeat. Dong Luzi yelled, the sword shadow flashed, he aimed for the opponent's weakness, broke into the opponent's sword net, and directly grabbed Dai Feng's chest. Dai Feng was taken aback, unable to return his sword in time, he leaned back abruptly, barely avoiding the sharp sword. Unexpectedly, Dong Luzi is not forgiving when he is in power, he kicks up and props it under the opponent's lower abdomen. If there is no armor, this kick will definitely teach Dai Feng not to be a man, but I have to teach him to feel better, and he screamed in pain With a sound, the long sword dropped from his hand, staggered and fell to the ground, pressing his hands on the vital points. Everyone didn't expect that Dong Luzi looked gentle and elegant, but he was so fierce when he had the upper hand, they all froze, and the audience was so quiet that a needle could be heard, except for Dai Feng's groans. Zhao Ba's face changed and he stood up, shouting to the left and right: "Don't you help the teacher's seat in to see and treat the injury?" Someone rushed out to help Dai Feng away. Without the slightest bit of shame, Dong Luzi triumphantly saluted the two parties, handed over the wooden sword, and went back to the banquet. Zhao Zhi has always been friendly with Dai Feng, so he didn't care about Li Yuan anymore, after giving him a hard look, he chased after Dai Feng who was helped away. Li Yuan didn't take Zhao Zhi seriously at all, and said with a casual smile: "In a martial arts competition, casualties are inevitable. If the owner of the pavilion is afraid of another accident, why don't you just let it go and let me be a small host tonight, how about making an apology?" This time even Ji Yanran couldn't see her eyes, she scolded in a low voice: "Li Yuan, you are too crazy!" Zhao Ba's pair of giant copper bell-like eyes gleamed fiercely, obviously agitated, Xiang Shaolong was really afraid that he would put himself in danger, so he gave Han Chuang a push. Han Chuang understood, and gestured to the subordinates behind him who had been dispatched to the battle. The swordsman named Fu Jianyin jumped off the stage as ordered, and shouted loudly: "Fu Jianyin asks Mr. Li Yuan for advice!" The audience was silent, waiting to see if Li Yuan would make a move in person. Fu Jianyin is not tall, but he is strong and solid. There are several criss-crossing sword scars on his face. His appearance is a bit scary, but it is also an ironclad proof of his experience in many battles. Li Yuan put on a gesture of not paying attention to the people of the world, lazily put half of his body on the small table beside him, and said casually: "Wuxin! You can go and learn from Gao Ming!" Everyone had predicted that he would disdain to make a move, so they were not surprised. The sturdy man named Lou Wuxin walked down the stage slowly, saluted a little, then stood proudly, took the wooden sword, waved away the one who was going to put on the armor for him, and said, "It's not that I'm going to the battlefield. What is this stupid thing doing? Seeing this, Fu Jianyin shouted: "Brother Lou doesn't wear armor, so Fumou is also exempt." At this time, Long Yangjun came to the back between Xiang Shaolong and Ji Yanran, and said in a dark voice: "Is there anyone in the world who is crazier than Chu people? When facing Qin people, I don't see them being so arrogant. Yanran Will my sister end?" Ji Yanran sighed: "Yanran is also very unconvinced, but she thinks she can't beat Li Yuan, there is no way." Longyang Jun snorted coldly, without speaking, and retreated to his seat.He asked himself that his sword skills were similar to Ji Yanran, if this beauty was not as good as Li Yuan, it would be difficult for him to please her.At the same time, he made up his mind not to let the selected Jiao Xu play in the battle, lest he be defeated in vain. Zhao Mu sighed and said to Guo Kai and Le Cheng behind him: "If Fu Jianyin is defeated, we can only rely on Luo Xiang to save our face, otherwise we have to let the owner of the pavilion take action, but I really don't want to see that The situation arises." Guo Kaidao: "Li Yuan is the number one swordsman in Chu State, the people below are already so powerful, his swordsmanship is even more conceivable." Everyone felt helpless for a moment. Although Zhao Mu is a top-notch swordsman, his status is not suitable to end, because it can easily lead to discord between the two countries. Fortunately, Li Yuan didn't have a prince, otherwise he wouldn't be able to fight privately without the order of the king. The two people on the field yelled at the same time, let go and attacked each other, only to see that Lou Wuxin moved the sword like the wind, opened and closed, the sword energy was like a mountain, extremely fierce and mighty, almost as soon as the handover, Fu Jianyin fell into a trap In the game of being beaten. At this moment, Xiang Shaolong caught a glimpse of Teng Yi riding his horse, and stretched out his hand to push Han Chuang, saying, "Quickly end this contest!" Han Chuang's face turned pale, because this Fu Jianyin left the scene with the identity of Zhao Ren, if he spoke, wouldn't it be clear that Fu Jianyin was his. People on both sides were watching the battle calmly, they didn't raise their voices like before, and the atmosphere was tense as if full of strings. With Han Chuang's hesitation, the winner was decided.Fu Jianyin lost his strength, and after a moment's hesitation, Lou Wuxin slashed at his shoulder with a sword. There was a sound of broken bones, and amidst the groaning sound, Fu Jianyin fell sideways. When he got up, his face was dripping with pain. cold sweat. Lou Wuxin laughed loudly and said, "I've accepted it!" Xiang Shaolong gestured to Teng Yi, who was coming down from his horse, and the latter understood, and shouted from a distance: "The villain, Long Shan, is Dong Kuang's subordinate, this man is very familiar, I don't know if he would like to teach you." At this moment, everyone didn't have time to pay attention to how Fu Jianyin was helped away, and they didn't notice that Zhao Zhi returned to the arena, sat in the seat next to his fellow disciples, and looked at the uninvited hero with great attention. Lou Wuxin looked at Teng Yi disdainfully, and said coldly: "If you want to fight, you must use a real sword to show your real ability." Teng Yi laughed loudly and said: "Why not, but Mr. Li had better send another person to play first, and it will be fair to fight with you after I have exhausted some strength." Zhao Mu sighed, "Is your general an idiot who doesn't know how to pick up any bargains?" Ji Yanran smiled and said, "There are servants like masters, this is a true hero." Zhao Mu couldn't help but smiled awkwardly, secretly blaming himself for showing that he wasn't a hero. Li Yuan was also afraid that Lou Wuxin hadn't recovered, seeing that Xiang Shaolong didn't make any reaction, he said happily, "He is indeed a good man!" With a gesture, another big man with a bronze face behind him led the battle. Xiang Shaolong asked Ji Yanran, "Who is this person?" Amid everyone's expectations, Ji Yanran shook her head blankly. The man came to Teng Yi, calmly said: "I don't like to use fake swords, what do you think?" Teng Yi said coldly: "Brother Gao's name?" The man took his time and said: "I am just a nobody!" Everyone was moved when they heard it. Of course Xiang Shaolong didn't know who he was, so he turned to Ji Yanran asking for advice. Ji Yanran said solemnly: "He was originally a famous swordsman in Qin State, but because he killed someone to protect Chu State, he unexpectedly joined Li Yuan's sect. It can be seen how powerful Li Yuan's power in Chu State has grown. No wonder he is so arrogant. Crazy." Han Chuang and others became worried about Teng Yi again. "Clang!" Yan Fu drew out his gleaming sharp sword, took two steps back, pointed at Teng Yi and shouted, "Have you not drawn your sword yet?" Teng Yimu was expressionless, a pair of giant eyes shot a cold light, and said slowly: "The sword will be unsheathed at that time!" Yan Fu was furious, shouted wildly, and attacked with his sword. For a moment, the cold light flourished and dazzled people's eyes. No one would have imagined that the martial arts competition between the powerful and powerful would turn into a life-and-death duel with real swords and guns.
