CHAPTER XXIII
Three days after Li Chen passed the assessment, twenty Qianniuwei gathered and began training. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Protecting the safety of the royal family is the main responsibility of the forbidden army, but the twenty Qianniuwei composed of martial arts people are set up to carry out outing missions, so there is little training in forming formations and other aspects, and more attention is paid to individual combat ability. The competition between the Qianniuwei has become the main training program.
Li Chen lives in Shafu, in the eyes of everyone, Li Chen is already a member of Shafu, and Sha Zhijing's husband Duan Zhide is also Duan Weize's uncle, so the relationship between the two is much closer, and the exchanges are the most frequent, but Li Chen can only be beaten unilaterally.
Duan Weize has a standard Chinese character face, no matter how you look at it, he is an honest big boy, three years older than Li Chen, but his swordsmanship shows the essence of the Guanzhong Sword School. The sword move is positive, compared with the common swordsmanship on the rivers and lakes, it lacks delicacy and aura, but it is full of power, almost no false moves, and it belongs to the more practical swordsmanship on the battlefield.
Li Chen's true qi could only be used for defense, and without Duan Weize's qi traction, he would not be able to use his internal force at all.
Duan Weize was also more open because of this, without any worries, the attack became more violent, and at the same time, the more powerful Li Chen's immovable root seal became, and the more the two of them competed.
"Good boy, you can block this trick too!
Li Chen, let's discuss, can you use a weapon, don't always block with your hands. In order not to worry about your hands, I can only use a wooden sword, which is very unpleasant. ”
"Uh~ But I don't need it, if I take a weapon, I always want to throw it away."
"Forget it, the wooden sword is the wooden sword, and I'll help you find a pair of soft armor gloves when you come back."
And when Duan Weize fulfilled his promise, there were more Qianniuwei who came to Li Chen to learn from, and it was really difficult to find this kind of opponent who would not fight back and was extremely durable.
But all this is also a cultivation for Li Chen, the true qi is constantly consumed, and when it is close to exhaustion, the 'unintentional' realm can open the connection between itself and heaven and earth, replenishing the true qi. created an illusion, as if Li Chen had inexhaustible true qi. In fact, the speed at which True Qi is consumed is less than the rate at which it is replenished.
"Don't fight... Don't fight..."Duan Weize sat on the ground panting.
Li Chen also sat down and breathed.
"It's time to rest."
"You kid is a monster, you have endless true qi, I really envy you."
"Hehe, it's okay. By the way, tomorrow the lord will celebrate his birthday, will you come? ”
"Come, I'll come with my two uncles, and I'll see you in Shafu then."
"Good!"
This joyful daily training was fulfilling for both of them, and their first mission quietly arrived.
Mr. Sha's birthday was bigger than in previous years, and there were many guests to congratulate him.
Duan Weize came early, and the two of them started to be funny, and Li Chen finally discovered that this Duan Weize was not as honest as he looked.
Coming to the fish pond to smash the fish with stones, coming to the pigsty and teasing the pigs, Li Chen has already played these strange amusement projects, and he can probably guess that Duan Weize is estimated to have been practicing in his childhood. Sympathy arises, and they play with him until one of them appears.
Yu Wenyi who came with Yu Wenshi.
Since he knew that she was coming, Duan Weize stopped messing around and kept following Yu Wenyi.
Seeing this, Yu Wenshi could only smile helplessly.
"General Yuwen, this is my good brother Li Chen, who cured Master Sha." In front of Yu Wenyi, he forgot that this was in Shafu.
"Oh, Li Shaoxia's innate Buddhist true qi has spread all over Chang'an, and today I finally saw it, and it was really a hero out of a young man.
This is my niece Yu Wenyi. ”
"Thank you, General Yuwen, for the compliment."
"Uncle, we've already met."
"Oh, why haven't I heard you say that."
"You're so busy, how can you be free."
"Hehe, then you can go shopping with them."
"Yes."
At this time, Sha Chenggong came to greet him, and Yu Wenshi entered the hall.
"Yu Wenyi, my skills have grown again recently, do you want to come and learn about it?"
"I'm bragging, I'm too lazy to fight you, today is a birthday banquet."
The three of them started chatting, of course, Li Chen was mainly listening.
And when the door reported to the eldest grandson's family, several people couldn't help but look over.
It was the eldest grandson Chong, the eldest son of the eldest grandson Wuji.
Seeing that there was no Changsun Yi, Yu Wenyi seemed to be relieved, and the chat continued.
As Sha Tiannan's son-in-law, Chang He and Duan Zhi came very early, and there was also a person they didn't expect very early, Yin Baimu of Luoyang Mansion.
When the Sha family was still in Luoyang, they had often had dealings with Bai Mu, that Bai Mu was not Luoyang Mansion Yin, this time he happened to be in Chang'an on business, so he caught up with Sha Tiannan's birthday, and also came to celebrate his birthday.
"The two generals, the lower officials came to Shafu this time, it is indeed abrupt, but there is really one thing I want to beg for the help of the two generals."
"Huh? Lord Bai Mu is polite, I don't know what you are talking about? Duan Zhide replied first.
"Whether the two generals can arrange a quiet room is a long story."
The two looked at each other, this kind of request is indeed rare, the two of them are in the military department, and they know the way of being an official very well, and Bai Mu's current performance is no longer reasonable. Seeing Bai Mu's serious expression, the two of them wanted to know what he was asking for, so they left the hall and took Bai Mu to a study.
"Xia Guan came to Chang'an this time, but he was actually summoned by the saint, and the reason really made Xia Guan embarrassed."
"Lord Bai might as well start from the beginning." Since it involves the emperor, Chang He must ask first.
"Half a month ago, the youngest son of Yan Yusheng, the leader of the Luoyang Evergreen Gang, suddenly fell ill, fell ill on his bed, unconscious, but the day before it was still as usual, just overnight it became like this, Yan Yusheng loved this little son very much, and invited famous doctors, and one of the doctors who knew martial arts saw it and diagnosed the cause.
Rigor was forcibly sucked away by the man Yuanyang with the technique of collecting and tonifying, and the method was so cruel that it hurt the root, and then he fell into a coma. ”
"Oh? And then? Chang He and Duan Zhide were also relieved, it seemed that Bai Mu's request would not be too outrageous.
"According to the doctor's suggestion, he invited Master Butun of the Pure Nian Meditation Monastery to help Fu Jin invigorate his blood with the true qi of the Buddhist Boy, and he woke up. But he didn't remember what had happened on the night of the incident. ”
"The matter was reported to the lower officials, and the lower officials also did an investigation, and this investigation scared everyone."
Chang He and Duan Zhide looked at Bai Mu, and they both had a premonition.
"In the past three years, all the famous Luoyang martial arts teenagers have had a night of sudden physical discomfort before marriage, and the lighter ones have returned to normal after half a month of recuperation, and the heavier ones have been two to three months, and their martial arts have also regressed to varying degrees. At that time, everyone thought that they had practiced a little fork, so they didn't investigate it carefully, but the actual situation is likely to be that these teenagers were all extracted by someone to extract the man's Yuanyang, and most of them happened before the wedding, and the victims were also confirmed by the arrest, and they were all clean and self-conscious before the accident. ”
"No one found out for three years?" Duan Zhide asked, feeling incredible.
"I have to say that this female thief is cunning, and the timing of her attack is chosen after these teenagers are engaged, before they get married, even if some family members guess it, but in order not to affect the subsequent marriage, they also choose to cover up the past.
Not to mention those who don't suspect it.
… It wasn't until something serious happened that things really spread.
I, Luoyang Mansion, began to investigate the matter with all our might, but the effect was very small, and it also caused dissatisfaction among the victims' families. What I didn't expect was that this matter received the attention of the saint and ordered me to come to Chang'an to report the matter to him in detail.
This is the purpose of my visit to Chang'an. ”
"Then what is the reason why Lord Bai is looking for us?" Duan Zhide then asked.
"It's not a secret, the day when the saint reported to me in the palace is tomorrow, except for the time to hurry, I was left with an extra two days, but it still made me panic, tomorrow the saint in addition to reporting the detailed situation, must also prepare a set of follow-up investigation plans, I am afraid that the saint can be satisfied. But I was really uneducated, so I had to ask others. ”
"May I ask Lord Bai, who is this person you are asking?"
"Don't hide it from the two of you, what I asked was General Li Ji, but it was his wife, Shen Luoyan, who analyzed and planned this."
Chang He and Duan Zhide glanced at each other.
"After her analysis and planning, she provided me with a possible plan to capture this female thief, and the first thing I needed was the consent of the two of them."
"Oh? Let's talk about it. ”
"Through the collation of case materials, two things can be certain.
First, this female thief knows the Luoyang martial arts world very well, and she knows very well whose man is going to get married as an adult, and the location of the bedroom of each son's family is probably also well remembered. It can be inferred from this that this female thief lives in Luoyang on weekdays and should have a normal identity in the Luoyang martial arts class, which makes it difficult for our investigation to make progress, because no one will be willing to let us investigate their daughters. And what's even more troublesome is that I believe that this female thief already knows a lot about the catchers in Luoyang Mansion, so even if our catcher is interrogating this female thief, I'm afraid we won't be able to ask any flaws. ”
Chang He and Duan Zhide nodded.
"Second, after sorting all the victims in time, I found an obvious pattern, that is, the victim was hurt more and more seriously, in other words, this female thief is becoming more and more insatiable, and her efforts to extract the man's Yuan Yang are getting heavier and heavier."
Speaking of this, Bai Mu suddenly remembered something.
As for why the Holy One is so concerned about this matter, she also helped me to analyze.
For more than ten years, the strength of my Tang Dynasty has been thriving, but the saint has never forgotten everything he experienced before he ascended the throne, and the demon girl of the demon gate is still the most hated by the saint.
And this female thief is the only demon girl who dares to appear during the Zhenguan period, and it is very likely that she is a person from the demon gate, so although the saint has a lot of opportunities, he is very concerned about this matter. ”
Hearing this, Chang He and Duan Zhide glanced at each other, and then Duan Zhide asked.
"So what can we do?"
"After thinking about it, Mrs. Shen recommended a trapping plan to me, and the soldiers needed to capture Mrs. Shen recommended Qianniuwei under General Chang's jurisdiction, and told Bai to ask General Chang's consent first, because the soldiers of Qianniuwei are all new faces to the female thieves who are familiar with Luoyang, and they should not be recognized, so it is convenient to arrange the arrest.
The other thing has to ask for permission from the two, a bait is needed in the trapping plan, since the female thief is becoming more and more greedy, then as long as there is a suitable candidate, strong in martial arts but a virgin, she will be able to lure her out, Mrs. Shen recommended General Duan's nephew, Duan Weize. ”
