Chapter 359: New Mission, Escort Clearance
Two days later, Qiu Rui, the king of Changping, sent someone to invite Liu Wen to the mansion as a guest, and Liu Wen went to find that his cousins Qin Qiong and Cheng Yanjin were there.
Before Qin Qiong came, Qiu Rui wrote a letter and sent it to Qin Qiong, repeatedly telling him to come to participate in this martial arts.
Qin Qiong knew her uncle's hard work, and she was extremely grateful.
At this moment, the status of Qiu Rui, the king of Changping, in his heart has far surpassed that of Beiping to Luo Yi.
After all, my uncle helped him several times and three times, and he didn't ask for anything in return.
At the banquet, Lao Cheng urinated several times and began to become unscrupulous: "I said Brother Liu Wen, you are not interesting enough this time, I know that Lao Cheng and I are not good at archery, and I also proposed to shoot three arrows during the selection, isn't this a intention to let Lao Cheng pass?" β
"Hey! You don't learn your skills yourself, it's my business? β
"I don't care, anyway, if you don't let me pass, I'll take my wife, daughter-in-law, and mother-in-law to live in your house, and I'll settle you!"

Unexpected Mission: Escort to pass the customs (Help Cheng Yanjin successfully pass the martial arts selection.) Reward: 1 Bear Card)
Lie down! You actually stimulated the system task for me, you are amazing!
"Okay, okay." Liu Wen also ignored the fact that his upright uncle was still here, and said: "When you see me beside you, use your best strength to shoot in the direction of the arrow target, and I will naturally help you pass the test when the time comes." β
"Really?"
Liu Wen saw Cheng biting Jin's face full of urgency, and hurriedly said: "Don't come nonsense, get a head covered and eyes closed, big back or something, otherwise I have to go and sue my aunt and Sister Ru Ying!" β
"I know, I know!"
"You must aim at the target, don't show me your stuff!"
"I know, don't worry, I won't come nonsense." Cheng Yanjin said impatiently.
Qiu Rui, Qin Qiong, and Qiu Fu also looked at Liu Wen with some curiosity.
I don't know what method he plans to use to help Cheng bite the gold to pass the test.
Of course, Qiu Rui didn't take the agreed cheating to heart this time, and even hoped that Liu Wen could help him.
He has seen Cheng Yanjin's martial arts, at least three or five Zuo Tiancheng can't beat him, such a talent is not ready to delay because of archery, it's a pity.
β¦β¦
At the same time, Yuwen Chengdu, Wu Yunzhao, Wu Tianxi and the Li brothers met secretly in a hidden courtyard in the city.
Although Yuwen Chengdu, Wu Yunzhao, and Wu Tianxi had not seen Li Shimin's strength, they had already faintly felt a trace of danger from his body, and they couldn't help but pay attention to it secretly.
Li Jiancheng regarded this place as a stage for his own performance, and in order to show his talents, he boasted about the three of them, but he was thinking about how to receive them under his command and use them for his own use.
Wu Tianxi was impatient when he heard this, and interrupted loudly: "Master Li, don't say anything if it's useless, just tell us what the plan is." β
Li Jiancheng was stunned and felt very faceless.
But the two younger brothers who could fight didn't support him, and he had no choice, so he sneered: "Our brother has discussed it before he came." This time, three generals will deal with Yang Guang, and our brother will be in charge of Liu Wen. β
Wu Yunzhao glanced at Li Shimin and Li Yuanba quietly, secretly jealous in his heart.
Yuwen Chengdu used to be a stuffy gourd, and now he was sitting there without speaking, making it impossible to guess what he was thinking.
Wu Tianxi was very dissatisfied: "Isn't it just that everyone does their own thing and takes revenge on each other?" It's a waste of time for you to ink for so long! Time is pressing, let's go first! β
Wu Yunzhao and Yuwen Chengdu did not show any objections, and left with him after Wu Tianxi finished speaking.
Li Jiancheng, who was hanging there, had a blue face.
β¦β¦
A few days later, the martial arts examination officially began, and unlike the literati examination, the place for the martial arts examination was too small to be performed at all. In order to recruit talents, Yang Guang sent people to open a large examination room in the open space outside the city.
Early this morning, whether it was the water bill of the bandits or the children of the eunuchs, they all came. Even Wei Wentong, Shang Shifu, Xin Wenli, and Zuo Tiancheng were also ordered to come to cheer.
I saw a conspicuous place, a two-thousand-pound copper tripod was placed, and there were several weapon racks not far behind, with all kinds of weapons on them, and then there was a row of arrow targets.
When the envoy arrived, an examiner came out and shouted: "In view of the large number of people participating in the martial arts this time, in order to shorten the selection time, we have to raise the requirements before the second game begins. If you want to pass the first primary, there are three requirements: first, three bodies of two thousand catties of Dading. Second, use these weapons of more than 100 catties to play a set of kung fu. Third, shoot three arrows at the back target, and the arrow will hit the heart. β
After the examiner finished speaking, the people who came to apply for the election were in an uproar.
"How is that possible! Two thousand catties of Dading, who can lift it! β
"It also said that the imperial court wants to select talents, isn't it embarrassing!"
"That's right! In my opinion, the court is preparing to deceive us and then commit a black hand. β
Hearing that the imperial court was going to make a black hand, some people immediately discussed with each other in private, and prepared to take advantage of the fact that the imperial court did not make a move, and the big guys rebelled together.
And Sima Deji, who was standing in the crowd, had an extremely ugly face.
Feeling that this was an obstacle deliberately set up in order to prevent himself from participating in the martial arts, he felt that the people around him could be used, so he took the lead in coaxing: "It's unfair, this kind of two thousand catties of big ding, how many people can move and change the rules!" β
As soon as he said this, someone shouted.
"That's right! Change the rules! β
"This kind of big tripod is not for people to lift at all!"
At this moment, someone suddenly shouted, who said that no one could move!
After speaking, Zuo Tiancheng, who was wearing civilian clothes, walked out of the crowd, went to the stage, tied the clothes on his body, grabbed the foot with one hand, and supported the bottom with the other, screamed, clenched his teeth, and suddenly exerted his strength, and pulled out the big ding with a breath, and the blue tendons on his forehead burst out, and with another force, he lifted the ding above his head.
At the same time, the surrounding candidates were boiling.
"Lifted! He's really lifted! β
"This can't be a fake, right? Isn't there two thousand pounds? β
Sima Dejiao pouted and said, "You know who he is, Zuo Tiancheng, the marshal of the Golden Sword Palace, that is the head of the emperor's guards in the past." In this world, how many people have such high martial arts as him? β
When he said this, he also had a scheming, and his original intention was to tell the people around him: Don't look at someone who can lift the big ding, but he is a trust, he can do it, you can't.
But he was surrounded by some high-rollers, and when he heard the children of the family say this, he was amazed and admired, and he didn't continue to make trouble according to Sima Deji's idea at all.
was so angry that Sima Dejiao scolded in his heart, this group of green forests and grass are reckless, and they are really brainless wastes!
Zuo Tiancheng, who was recently hit by Liu Wen one after another, saw the surprised appearance of these candidates, not only regained his confidence, but also was slightly proud, and lifted Dading twice in a row, successfully completed the task, and when he stepped off the high platform, his hands were a little shaky.
