187th Sword Dance
On the square built in the general's mansion, the crowd is generally very lively, on the high protruding stone platform, the flag is slowly waving in the breeze, and the gongs and drums are bursting, but I saw nearly a hundred young and handsome red-clothed warriors, everyone held a long sword in their hands and stepped on the rhythm of gongs and drums, waving the snow-white long sword in their hands, the red clothes were really bright, revealing a rose red, like blood, which made people look shocking.
Boom, a muffled sound, the warriors brushed and raised their long swords, and after walking seven steps in a row on the large stone platform, I saw the warriors bend down, holding the sword and stabbing the ground with the tip of the knife, quickly turned around and drew three times in a row, where the tip of the knife touched the floor, I saw sparks splashing everywhere, and I heard a sharp sound of iron scraping the ground, which was very inspiring.
Yuan Ji whispered to Shang Fei, this is the sword dance that originated in Yecheng, imitating the scene of people fighting tigers, he said with his hand to point to the warriors who were spinning the long knives, and continued, they were wearing fiery red clothes, like fire, nearly a hundred people were wearing red clothes stained red by tiger blood, and they were also turning like clouds in the sky.
Shang Fei raised his cheeks and smiled when he heard this, right? Then the clothes on their bodies are really red with tiger blood, so it is a little scary to say that there are so many tigers that can be beaten.
Yuan Ji shook his head and smiled, what the little master said is also right, although the clothes of the warriors are not dyed red with tiger blood, they are all dyed red with human blood!
Shang Fei immediately frowned when he heard this, and said in a deep voice, but for the sake of a dance, why bother to dye so many clothes red with human blood?
Yuan Jidao, the little lord thought that the blood on the clothes worn by these warriors was the blood of the enemy, and they wore it on their bodies to symbolize a kind of honor.
Shang Fei smiled at this time and said, it is indeed a good strategy to show off his bravery with the blood of the enemy. It's just that I don't know what happens on the battlefield.
Yuan Ji leaned close to Shang Fei's cheek and whispered, this little lord is relieved. Although the Rongdi people are fierce, the people of Liuying City are still martial. You won't necessarily lose to them!
Shang Fei's eyes watched the crowd in the sword dance rotate their vigorous figures, the long sword was as dazzling as a forest, and he stretched out his hand and pointed at the warriors, looking at them as if they had not been on the battlefield yet, but there was a killing machine on their bodies, and they were eager to kill people, which was very good, for the soldiers. The minions of the people, the brave soldiers will always be respected.
Yuan Ji nodded and said, what the little lord said was extremely thorough, and his subordinates quite agreed, but in recent years, there have been few wars in this city, and although there have been sporadic harassment, it is not as cruel as the previous confrontation between the two armies.
Shang Fei suddenly said with some interest, I am very curious, how do these people usually train, go to the mountains to hunt and fight with fierce beasts? Or practice assassination in the barracks?
Yuan Ji lowered his body and took out a booklet from his sleeve and said. The little master guessed not all right, the practice in the barracks could not see blood, and the samurai were inevitably afraid when they went to the battlefield. Although it is the best way to train to find wild beasts to fight in the mountains, so many people cannot guarantee that there will be many wild beasts to find, in order to exercise their courage, the death row prisoners in the city are all beheaded by them, although it sounds funny, but it is practical.
Shang Fei pursed his lips and smiled, he never thought that there were many talents in our city. When these samurai were young, they wandered around the city before they were accepted into the city by the lord of the city. Strictly speaking, they are not from our own city. They chose this path only to survive, will they really fight for us?
Yuan Jidao, this subordinate can use his head to vouch for it, these warriors are extremely loyal to Liuying City, because they can no longer accept the life of wandering, and they are more desperate than any army on the battlefield.
Shang Fei nodded and said, if you say this, I will be much more relieved, but human life is not as cheap as grass and trees, since they have suffered from displacement, when they come to us, they will no longer live without home and dignity, and tell them to go down and make more delicious food, and the princess and I will toast them one by one tonight, and thank them for their loyalty to the city.
Hearing this, Yuan Ji raised his head in surprise and looked at Shang Fei and said, Little Lord, do you think about this and this again, how can the princess Jin Zhi Yuye toast so many people one by one?
Shang Fei smiled indifferently, the princess is a sensible girl, she doesn't like to put up any shelves, and it's nothing to toast her subordinates, besides, I accompany her, don't you say?
Yuan Ji's face was shocked, and he bent down solemnly and said, Little Lord, please take back your life, the city lord loves the princess so much, and the princess is pregnant, so she can't move, if the city lord knows, I'm afraid I don't know how his old man feels.
Shang Fei listened carefully, frowned, and said, what you said is true, this point is indeed a little embarrassing, so let's do it, I'll pour the wine tonight, and the princess will accompany me.
Yuan Ji breathed a sigh of relief at this time, and hurriedly said, it is much more appropriate for the little master to think like this, and his subordinates have no other opinions.
Shang Fei lowered his head and thought about it, and asked, by the way, why hasn't the city lord seen him recently?
Yuan Ji didn't want to make his debut, the city lord had a lot of opportunities, he thought he was busy with official business, and his subordinates didn't know too well.
Shang Fei thought about it and thought about it, and he didn't know if he felt that something was wrong, and said in a deep voice, there will be a decisive battle in three days, I hope nothing happens.
Yuan Ji probed over and said, The little master has another good news for you, since you talked to Han Gongzi and stated all the powerful relationships, be sure to ask him to get along with Liu Mengyao, according to his subordinates, the relationship between Han Gongzi and Liu Mengyao is developing as the little master hopes, Liu Mengyao should not be able to guess, at the critical moment, Han Gongzi may be able to help us eradicate the Liu Party.
Shang Fei's smile converged, and said seriously, this is not a good thing, although Han Gongzi was moved by me to ask him to fake the show and confuse Liu Mengyao, but people are not grass and trees, how can they be ruthless? Liu Mengyao, a woman who only wants to take revenge, is so determined, in short, it is better to follow Han Gongzi than to follow Mu Nan, with Han Gongzi, even if Liu Mengyao wins in the future, we also have a way out, if we follow Mu Nan, then we will die without a place to be buried, after all, Han Li and Mu Nan are a pair of natural enemies, but there is a qiē in the middle, but we can't see the light, we owe Han Gongzi.
Yuan Ji said strangely, how did the little master see that Liu Mengyao liked Han Gongzi?
Shang Fei thought about it, and said with a helpless smile, I can't say this, it's true that Liu Mengyao likes Han Li, but doesn't Han Li like Liu Mengyao? Probably not, a slap doesn't make a sound.
Yuan Ji smiled and said, even so, the little master is really powerful, you can actually see that the two of them are tired, it's just that the little lord how did you persuade Han Gongzi.
Shang Fei said lightly, Han Gongzi has also paid a lot for the flow of cinemas, and I said to him truthfully, if the world can be peaceful, why not let you and me go to hell?
Yuan Jidao's little master's wisdom is sincerely admired by his subordinates, but Han Gongzi got Liu Mengyao's stunning color, but he was not wronged by him.
Shang Fei shook his head slightly and turned his cheeks, his eyes were a little cold, and he sighed softly, okay, okay, it's a blessing to get a beauty, but there is always a sense of guilt in my heart, that is, it is a lifetime of things, forget it, let's not talk about this, it's just that we have to fight soon, and we still have to be ready.
