Chapter 128: I don't allow it
Meng Zhulu said: "I hope Your Majesty will approve it." ”
Li Hong walked over and helped Meng Zhulu up, and said, "Aiqing, why do you suddenly have this idea? You are the pillar of my Tang army, and now the Tang Dynasty seems to be singing and dancing, but in fact it is in crisis. If you are old, where will I find someone to replace you?"
Meng Zhulu said: "Your Majesty, the minister joined the army at the age of sixteen, and has served the Tang Dynasty for thirty-two years now, and has experienced thousands of battles of all sizes, with countless minor injuries and no less than 30 serious injuries, of which five times he almost died. Now there is hardly a good skin on the minister's body, and it is full of scars. ”
"It's nothing, scars are a soldier's honor, and the minister doesn't want to show off anything. However, after thirty-two years of riding horses, the minister is really tired, and now every rainy day, the minister's joints are as painful as pins and needles. Whether it is luck or medicine, it can't be removed, and the insider has always wanted to return to the countryside to farm and raise chickens, she said that Chang'an City is too indifferent. ”
"Your Majesty, there is a general under the command of the minister, who can take over the burden on the minister's shoulders after the minister returns to old age. This man's name is ......"
Li Hong directly interrupted him, "Needless to say, I know who you want to say, but I won't agree to your request to return to the elderly." ”
Although Meng Zhulu had expected such a result, when the emperor really refused, he was still very disappointed.
"Aiqing, who made you feel wronged?" Li Hong asked, "What do you say about returning to old age?" ”
Meng Zhulu shook his head: "In the position of the minister, who else dares to wronged the minister." ”
"Is that dissatisfaction with me?" Li Hong said.
Meng Zhulu knelt down again: "Your Majesty Mingjian, the minister has no such intention." ”
"Get up. Li Hong frowned: "I will definitely not agree to the request of returning to the old man, but I can give you a period of leave, when your mentality is adjusted, and when you come back to report on your work." What does Aiqing think?"
Meng Zhulu sighed softly in his heart, "Thank you, Your Majesty." ”
"Newspaper. Suddenly a eunuch came at the door to report.
"Speak. Li Hong said lightly.
"Zhou Fei came out of the academy. The eunuch said.
Li Hong and Meng Zhulu were both shocked: "What did you say?"
The eunuch said: "The spies from the academy came to report that Zhou Fei had accepted the retreat and officially accepted Qiao Kun's challenge. ”
"He really came out?" Li Hong walked a few steps in the upper study and sighed softly: "Very good, he is worthy of being the son of General Zhou, and he is not a bad breed after all." Let's go and find out. ”
"Wow. The eunuch stepped aside.
Li Hong said: "If it weren't for the fact that my appearance had too much impact, I really wanted to go to the scene with Aiqing to see it, this time the battle would be very exciting." It's a pity. Aiqing, who do you like?"
Meng Zhulu thought for a while and said, "Calculating the time, Zhou Fei has been in retreat for more than four months, obviously after experiencing the battle between Yan Chen and Heng Nianwu, he realized his own shortcomings, so he retreated to improve. This person has average talent, and he has few qi and sea points, although he has a master as a teacher, but some congenital defects cannot be made up. ”
On the other hand, Qiao Kun, as Qiao Huaixi's younger brother, he did not lose to Zhou Fei in a single round. Secondly, it is rumored that this person's Qi Sea Acupoint has fourteen apertures, which can be regarded as an upper-class level among cultivators. And his talent is very good, especially in the rune one, the talent is amazing. Even if Zhou Fei is in retreat for four months, he is not necessarily Qiao Kun's opponent. ”
Li Hong smiled and said, "It seems that Aiqing is very optimistic about Qiao Kun, so do you dare to make a bet with me?"
"What does Your Majesty want to bet on?" Meng Zhulu asked.
"It's very simple, I am optimistic about Zhou Fei, you are optimistic about Qiao Kun, if Qiao Kun wins, I will let you go to old age. If Zhou Fei wins, you are not allowed to mention the matter of returning to old age for the next ten years, how can you dare to make a bet with me?" Li Hong looked at Meng Zhulu with a smile.
Meng Zhulu nodded: "Okay, then the minister will have the courage to make a bet with His Majesty." ”
"Then you're doomed. Li Hong was very proud.
Meng Zhulu didn't know where His Majesty's confidence came from, but he wouldn't have the courage to sweep His Majesty's interest.
However, in Meng Zhulu's opinion, Zhou Fei did not have the slightest chance of winning.
That's a waste.
Even if you go to the second floor of the academy, it's a waste.
......
Everyone didn't expect that Zhou Fei would walk out of the academy at the end of the day.
They all thought that Zhou Fei would choose to avoid the battle.
The face of the academy will also be disgraced.
Of course, after so long, almost all of the onlookers have defected.
The common people of Chang'an worship the strong.
Because Datang is very strong!
Because Datang is the first power in the Great Wilderness!
So Zhou Fei's behavior was very shameless in their eyes.
In order to protect Zhou Fei, the academy was also very shameless.
If it weren't for the fact that the academy still had a master who was the strongest in the Great Wilderness, these ordinary people might have scolded him.
Zhou Fei's reputation was originally not warmed up because of the continuous defeat of Yan Chen and Heng Nian, and everyone no longer called him the No. 1 waste material in Chang'an.
However, because of this incident, his reputation fell to the bottom again.
However, Qiao Kun has received a lot of praise.
You must know that at the beginning, Qiao Kun was almost scolded by thousands of people, thinking that he was a grandstander, and wanted to become famous in one fell swoop in this way.
But after a few months of perseverance, people realized that Qiao Kun was not as superficial as they seemed.
This disciple of Heng Zongdao, Qiao Huaixi's younger brother, still has something.
Especially after communicating with Mr. Big, Qiao Kun's changes are visible to the naked eye.
The major gambling houses in Chang'an also opened markets for this competition.
At the beginning, Qiao Kun was fully behind, but now he has achieved overtaking.
On the contrary, it was Zhou Fei, who went from being far ahead at the beginning, to being flat in the middle of the period, and then to the current comprehensive rout, which can be described as a thousand miles and a rout.
"Your current odds are eight to one, and Qiao Kun is two to one. Yue Chen whispered in Zhou Fei's ear.
Zhou Fei blinked, "Can you still bet?"
"Yes. Yue Chen said.
Zhou Fei took out all the valuable things on his body and handed them to Yue Chen: "Go, buy me and win." ”
Yue Chen said in embarrassment: "Little junior brother, although I also believe in your strength, but forget about the bet." ”
"You don't believe me?" Zhou Fei said.
"No, I just don't think gambling is good, and the master won't let us gamble. Yue Chen said.
"A small gamble is pleasant, a big gamble hurts the body. What is this money, it's not enough to even make a girl. Zhou Fei said with a grin: "Go quickly, you won't be able to buy it after a while." ”
Yue Chen had no choice but to carry a bag of valuable items to the gambling house.
However, the gambling house is very caring, and a temporary gambling stall was opened on the street next door to the academy, and it also had a good relationship with the officials, and it would not be banned.
This gambling house is very famous in Chang'an, so you don't have to worry about defaulting on your debts.
Yue Chen pressed all the valuable things on Zhou Fei's head and replaced it with a piece of paper, which was the voucher for redeeming money later.
There are bets here, and Zhou Fei and Qiao Kun have also chatted at the gate of the academy.
"The little comrade is in good spirits. Zhou Fei said with a smile: "After waiting for a few months, I originally thought that you would retreat, but I didn't expect to be so tenacious, I really admire you." ”
Qiao Kun said lightly: "It's my honor to be able to fight with the representatives of the academy, just a few months, it's nothing." And the customs of Chang'an are very good, I like it here. ”
Zhou Fei raised his eyebrows.
The evaluation of Qiao Kun in his heart was another level higher.
Everywhere is not surprised, there is something.
"You don't want to ask me why I showed up so late?" Zhou Fei asked.
"Mr. Five's retreat and cultivation are related to your cultivation, so it's inconvenient to ask too much about it. Maybe when we fight, we will know everything. Qiao Kun said: "Mr. Five, make a move." ”
"Oh, don't worry. Zhou Fei said: "Since everyone of us has come, this fight will definitely be fought." But there are some things that need to be asked clearly. ”
Qiao Kun said: "Mr. Five, please speak." ”
"Is our fight to the end, or will we not die?" Zhou Fei said: "I don't want to carry another inexplicable hatred." The previous constant thought was enough to give me a headache, and if I accidentally hurt you, and your brother also hated me, it would be too uncomfortable. ”
Qiao Kun said: "At this point, Mr. Wu can rest assured, I came to challenge you to be my own decision, and it has nothing to do with Heng Zongdao, and it has nothing to do with my brother." ”
Zhou Fei said: "No, I can't trust you with this empty mouth and white teeth, it's better for us to leave a certificate." ”
Qiao Kun frowned: "Mr. Five, there is no lie in the future, and there is no need for any evidence." ”
Zhou Fei said solemnly: "It's better to leave a certificate, in case your brother takes revenge in the future, I also have something to show him." ”
"Mr. Five is very confident in himself. Qiao Kun said.
Zhou Fei brought a pen and paper over and said, "You write a letter of guarantee." ”
The surrounding crowd couldn't stand it anymore, and the scene booed.
The disciples of the academy also felt humiliated.
originally thought it was a very high-grade, very high-end competition, how did it become so unserious?
What is Zhou Fei going to do?
Did he really want to lose the face of the academy?
Qiao Kun stared at Zhou Fei for a long time, clenched his fists tightly, and after a few breaths, he slowly released his fists, picked up the brush and wrote a line of words.
Zhou Fei slowly dried the ink on the paper as if he had obtained a treasure, and then put the guarantee letter close to him, and said, "Mr. Qiao is a cheerful person, I am very optimistic about you." ”
"Can we do it?" Qiao Kun said lightly, but the bulging green tendons on his forehead revealed that he was not in a calm mood at the moment.
Zhou Fei said with a smile: "Yes, yes." ”
After speaking, he jumped back a few meters and put on a posture: "Please." ”
Qiao Kun waited for a few months, just waiting for this sentence.
He raised his hand and threw four runes out directly.
The four runes were different, and the wind, rain, thunder and snow swarmed, and a natural disaster was staged directly above Zhou Fei's head.
These runes were all prepared by Qiao Kun in advance, and he depicted each rune with extreme care, and the quality of the runes was also excellent.
Qiao Kun took out all his skills and tried to defeat Zhou Fei.
So getting started is a killer move, without the slightest mercy. I want to talk about "The Strongest Waste Material System" with more like-minded people, pay attention to "excellent reading literature" on WeChat, talk about life, and find confidants~
