Chapter 6: Entering the Barracks

Chapter 6: Heroes must take advantage of their weapons and enter the barracks

The wooden door slowly opened, and the steward walked out and immediately saw Shangguan Xingye standing in front of the door, and was immediately overjoyed: "It turned out that the young lady was back." Then he commanded the porter, "Go and tell Madame that Madame is back." ”

Shangguan Xingye smiled: "Just came back, Uncle Fang has always been good?" Are you okay at home? I have been away from home for more than two years, and I am very worried. ”

"It's all good, it's all good" Shangguan laughed and said, "Miss, come in quickly." Then he dodged and got out of the way.

Shangguan Xingye turned his head and smiled: "Brother Liao, Brother Niu, the two brothers will follow me into the mansion." ”

Wei Yuan and Niu Mang looked at each other and smiled, without answering, they entered the mansion with Shangguan Xingye, and the free management of the carriage and horses was not mentioned.

After entering the house, I hadn't gone far when I saw a woman rushing out of the inner house, calling out: "Where is Ye'er?" Where is Ye'er? ”

When Shangguan Xingye saw this, he immediately cried and ran forward, threw himself into the woman's arms, and cried: "Ye'er is here, he has been away from home for two years, and the child wants to be angry with his mother. ”

The woman also cried out, "I want to kill my son." Then the mother and daughter hugged each other and cried loudly.

After a long time, the woman stopped crying and said, "Come, my son will quickly follow his mother into the room, and my mother and daughter will talk to each other." ”

Shangguan Xingye stopped crying and responded, and then pointed to the two behind him: "This is Brother Liao Yuan and Brother Niu Mang of Wuyang, if the two brothers were not rescued, Ye'er would have died in the mountains and forests long ago!" ”

The woman hurriedly stepped forward and bowed to the two of them and said, "Shangguan Wu thanked the two benevolent fathers for their rescue of the little girl. ”

Wei Yuan clasped his fists and saluted: "Where Mrs. Shangguan said, everything is a blessed person, and my two brothers are really at the right time. ”

Wu said: "The two benevolent dukes have been tired all the way, and they must have been in distress for a long time, so please take a break for a while, and when my husband returns, a banquet will be set up to entertain the two bengongs." Then he arranged for the housekeeper to arrange a guest room for the two, and he brought Shangguan Hoshino into the room to talk.

Wei Yuan and Niu Mang walked to the guest room with the steward, and on the way, Niu Mang suddenly found that there was a small hall next to it, and there were weapon racks standing on the ground on the left and right, and there were various weapons on it. So he asked, "Where is this?" ”

The housekeeper Shangguan replied: "The master is a master craftsman in the camp, and he specially creates weapons for the camp, and this is the tool that the master usually smelts." ”

Niu Mangxing said: "In this way, I want to see how this weapon is?" Then he abandoned the two of them and walked straight to the rack.

Wei Yuan couldn't stop it, Shangguan smiled and said: "Every time a distinguished guest comes here, he must first appreciate the weapons refined by the master, why don't you also appreciate one or two?" ”

Wei Yuan smiled: "That is the case, then forgive Liao for being disrespectful" and then went with the housekeeper.

Shangguan Qingyi was out of the house at this time, and suddenly heard that the servant came to report the return of his daughter, so he was overjoyed and rode back at a gallop. After entering the inner house, he chatted with Shangguan Xingye's mother and daughter, and after learning that Shangguan Xingye was in distress and was rescued by Wei Yuan and escorted all the way to Shudu, he sighed: "This is a righteous man, you should see it quickly." Then he said goodbye to the mother and daughter and went to the guest room.

When passing by the equipment hall, Shangguan Qingyi heard the sound of weapons intersecting in the equipment hall, so Daqi stepped forward, saw Shangguan Fang standing outside the hall, and asked, "Who is practicing martial arts in the hall?" ”

Shangguan Fang replied: "It's the second brother of Liao Yuan." ”

Shangguan Qingyi then looked into the hall, only to see two people in the hall, both dressed in sackcloth, one with a black face and a white face, one with a body as big as a black tower, and the other with a well-proportioned body but also powerful, among which the black-faced man was holding a giant oil melon hammer in his hand, and the white-faced man was holding a muddy iron spear, and the two were fighting fiercely. I saw that the two of them were fighting with hammers and guns, and it was difficult to decompose, and when they hit the hearty place, the black-faced man roared endlessly, making people listen to it like thunder.

Seeing the second, I saw that the two of them had been fighting back and forth for nearly forty rounds, Shangguan Qingyi saw the wonders, and couldn't help but applaud loudly, and the two people in the hall immediately stopped when they heard it.

Wei Yuan looked up and saw an old man leaning in front of the door, thinking for a moment in his heart, so he stepped forward and said, "In Xia Liao Yuan, dare to ask the old man if he is a master craftsman?" ”

Shangguan Qingyi waved his hand and said: "The ears of lowly people dare not be commensurate with masters." Hearing that the two righteous men saved the little girl, and escorted the little girl back home, the old man was very grateful, so he wanted to go to the guest room to visit one or two, and did not want to coincide with the two martial arts, and when he saw the wonders, he couldn't help but cry out, and asked the righteous to forgive me. ”

Wei Yuan said with a smile: "Who in the Shu Kingdom doesn't know the name of Shangguan Master?" The smelting craftsmen in the army are almost three or four out of ten, and the master craftsmen are too modest. ”

Shangguan Qingyi said with a smile: "The righteous man has won the award." Just now I saw two righteous men playing weapons, I don't know what I think of this weapon? ”

At this time, Niu Mang replied on the side: "It looks good, but it's uncomfortable to use." ”

Wei Yuan reprimanded Niu Mang and said with a smile: "My brother is straightforward, and I hope that the master craftsman will not care." My brothers and sisters are suitable for martial arts, and they feel that the equipment here is sharp and good, but the weight is quite light, so it is a little difficult to use. ”

Shangguan Qingyi said with a smile: "The weapons here are for the use of martial arts by the people of the government, no wonder the two righteous men are not easy to use." Then he asked, "I don't know what kind of weapons you two are good at?" There are a few good weapons in my arsenal. ”

Wei Yuan said with a smile: "I am good at using long knives, and my brother Niu Mang likes hammers and axes. ”

Shangguan Qingyi said with a smile: "In this case, there is just a suitable weapon in the library. Then he instructed Shangguanfang: "Take the three-pointed two-edged knife and the mountain axe in the warehouse, and try to ask the two righteous men to use them." ”

Shangguan said yes, but went.

Wei Yuan said with a smile: "The master still calls me two people, my cousin is good, and my brother Niu Mang's cousin is Jinshang." ”

Shangguan Qingyi said with a smile: "In this case, the old decay will be entrusted, and you two can call my uncle, and let the master show more life." ”

So Wei Yuan and Niu Mang hurriedly stepped forward to worship them again with the salute of their juniors, and Shangguan Qingyi hurriedly helped them up.

After a while, I saw Shangguan Fang coming with a few servants carrying equipment, Shangguan Qingyi smiled and said: "The two virtuous nephews can try it out to see if they fit together." ”

Wei Yuan grabbed the three-pointed two-edged knife, feeling that the weight was just right, so he danced far away, until he saw the sweat on his forehead, he stopped, and couldn't help but praise: "It's really a good weapon!" ”

Shangguan Qingyi asked, "How is it, does the virtuous nephew think this weapon fits?" ”

Wei Yuan replied: "The length of the portion is just right. ”

Shangguan Qingyi said with a smile: "This three-pointed two-edged knife, weighing seventy-five catties, has been in my library for a long time and no one can make it, since Ziliang thinks it is appropriate, I will give it to Ziliang today." ”

Wei Yuan exclaimed: "Such a divine soldier, even if you have a thousand gold, it is difficult to find, how can you receive the gift empty-handed" and then refused to give it.

Shangguan Qingyi smiled: "Where did Ziliang come from?" Thou hast called me uncle, and thou hast not heard the words of the elders who dare not speak? ”

Wei Yuan was ashamed to accept it, and Shangguan Qingyi gave the sixty-nine pounds of mountain opening axe to Niu Mang, and Wei Yuan and the others thanked him.

In the evening, Shangguan Tsing Yi set up a banquet to entertain the two, and after three rounds of wine, Shangguan Tsing Yi asked: "Can Ziliang get married now?" ”

Wei Yuan replied: "The Wei thief has not been destroyed, why should he be at home?" ”

Shangguan Qingyi stroked his palms and laughed: "Ziliang has the ambition of Marquis Jinghuan. "Marquis Jinghuan was the Emperor of the Han Dynasty, Huo Quai.

Wei Yuan said: "How can he be compared with Marquis Jinghuan?" It's really heartfelt. ”

Shangguan Qingyi said: "Listening to what Ye'er said, Brother Ru and the two are ready to join the army when they come to Shu this time? ”

Wei Yuan replied: "Yes, Yuan Zheng wants to ask his uncle about the recruitment. ”

Shangguan Qingyi said with a smile: "In this case, I may be able to arrange one or two, I have been building equipment for the army for a long time, and I also know a few logistics generals, and the two virtuous nephews can temporarily live in the mansion, waiting for me to find out one or two." ”

Wei Yuan and the others were grateful.

The next day, Shangguan Tsing Yi searched for familiar generals, but because there was no war in Shu in the past ten years, there were no vacancies for generals in the army. Shangguan Tsing Yi bribed him with a lot of money, and finally had to take the position of the commander of the logistics army, Shangguan Tsing Yi was dissatisfied but helpless, and was ashamed to inform Wei Yuan and the two, Wei Yuan laughed and said: "I originally wanted to start from Wu Zu, and now I have the position of the chief, which is already an unexpected joy." Shangguan Tsing Yi was ashamed to go.

Only Niu Mang complained because he was not assigned to the pioneer camp, and was speechless after being reprimanded by Wei Yuan.

In this way, Wei Yuan and the others settled in Shangguan's mansion for five days, and after five days, they received news of the military recruitment, so they said goodbye to Shangguan's family and rushed to the military camp to report for duty.

Huang Feng returned to the house, because he had a whip wound on his body, for fear of being discovered by his father, so he hid in the bedroom and did not come out. On this day, his father Huang Dan returned from outside, and met Huang Feng, seeing that Huang Feng's expression was covered up, so he reprimanded: "I'm idle all day long, sneaky, what kind of system!" ”

Huang Feng's mother, Hu Yanshi, persuaded: "My son is still young, and he will be sensible when he grows up." ”

Huang Dan said angrily: "Are you still young after the age of twenty-nine (Note 1)? In a few days, I will quickly arrange a matchmaker to propose marriage with me, get married early, and have a grandchild with me as soon as possible. ”

Huang Feng was overjoyed when he heard this, and said to his father: "If the marriage is completed, the child knows that there is a daughter who can be the child's wife, if he gets this daughter, the child will carefully follow his father's teachings, change his past mistakes, and become a big official like his father in the future." ”

Hu Yanshi said strangely: "What kind of woman can make my son so determined?" Come on. ”

Huang Feng said: "Shangguan Xingye, the daughter of Shangguan Qingyi, a master smelting master in Shudu. After that, he looked straight at Huang Dan with his eyes, and waited for Huang Dan to agree.

Huang Dan frowned and said, "Smelting master Shangguan Qingyi? If you don't enter the Shi clan, you are a lowly person, how can the daughter of this family be my Huang family's eldest wife? ”

Huang Feng didn't dare to argue, so he could only ask Huyan's for advice: "Mother, help the child persuade the father, if you can marry this girl, the child would rather live for three years." ”

Hu Yanshi reprimanded: "Why did Wu'er come to such ominous words! Then he persuaded Huang Dan: "Lang Jun, the concubine Guan Feng'er is very sincere, if Feng'er marries this woman and works hard, the concubine thinks that it is okay to marry this woman as his wife." ”

Huang Dan reprimanded: "Hugh has a lot to say. If Wu'er is really willing to have this daughter, I will try to make Feng'er accept her as a concubine after marriage. ”

Hu Yanshi exclaimed: "Lang Jun, that Shangguan clan is a subordinate of Mrs. Wuhou, and he is afraid of making trouble if he accepts him as a concubine." ”

Huang Dan said proudly: "If Zhuge Wuhou or Mrs. Wuhou are still here, I don't dare to touch his tiger beard, and now these two have been dead for more than ten years, and his son Zhuge Zhan is a short-sighted person who has not won the emperor's favor." Not to worry about either. ”

At this time, the news of Fei Yi's assassination had been transmitted back to Shudu, and Liu Chan, the lord of Shu, cried when he heard the news: "In the past, my father died and recommended Fei Yi to assist me in the Shu Han Dynasty, and I don't want Fei Yi to go first today." The ministers persuaded him to stop, and Liu Chan, the lord of Shu, ordered Jiang Wei to temporarily be the general and supervise the military, and Chen Yi and Chen Zhou temporarily supervised the internal affairs.
