Chapter 12 On Matters

It's been another refreshing morning.

Sun Qi, carrying his sword on his back, walked around the courtyard, moving around and moving his muscles.

Wei Ziheng followed behind Sun Qi, his eyes looking at the beautiful scenery around him, but he was thinking about the wonderful thing last night.

Sun Qi saw that his junior brother's thoughts were a little unquiet, so he said jokingly: "Ziheng, didn't you sleep well yesterday?" ”

"Nope." Wei Ziheng answered truthfully.

Sun Qi looked at Wei Ziheng carefully and said, "Then how do you look a little listless?" What do you think of the duel between me and that Chifeng senior yesterday? ”

Wei Ziheng thought for a while and said: "In my opinion, as a senior, Chifeng does have some ability in terms of means, and his Yiyang Three Swords are not small. But looking at your magic today, isn't it almost good? ”

Sun Qi waved his hand, and then said, "It's all skin trauma, and it's fine." Coupled with the medicine provided by them, Wu Meng, the effect is wonderful, and it is also a matter of time before the injury recovers. To be honest, junior brother, I haven't duel with others like this for a long time, Ziheng, I have ambitions today, why don't I compete with you, how about it? ”

"This, Ziheng is not the opponent of the senior brother. I'm afraid that I will be seen by outsiders and be a little embarrassed. Wei Ziheng said very humbly.

Sun Qi suddenly smiled a little happily: "Don't give me modesty here, I don't know your strength yet." Although on the surface, my martial arts skills are the first of our three brothers, but in fact, our three brothers still know which is stronger and which is weaker. It's not the first time I've sparred with you, what are you afraid of? Come, just like we usually practice swords in the mountains. ”

"Okay." Wei Ziheng said helplessly, Wei Ziheng borrowed a sword from Wu Meng's disciples and had a discussion with Sun Qi in the courtyard.

The two of you go back and forth, no distinction between up and down, no extremely domineering attacks, no strong and unreasonable combos, just very simple practice of swordsmanship. From the initial slowness to the later extreme speed, the two of them swung their swords faster and faster.

After about an hour of practice.

Sun Qi waved his hand and said, "It seems that I still need to improve my swordsmanship!" I'm a little rusty with these most basic things. It's you, this junior brother is still mastered. ”

Wei Ziheng held the sword, made a gesture of clenching his fists, and then said: "Senior brother, you are polite, everyone can learn these basic sword moves, if it weren't for me, if someone else came to compare with you, the effect would actually be similar." Being in this world, it is necessary to master a self-defense technique, senior brother, in fact, there is no need to say so, you must know that you are now in charge of Qihong, and when you become proficient in the future, Qihong's power will inevitably be released by you. ”

Sun Qi looked at the long sword in his hand quite seriously and said, "What I hope more now is that I can become stronger as soon as possible." I want to get out of those theories, and I want to become a master like Chifeng's predecessors who have been on the battlefield for a long time. Live up to Chihong's name. ”

Wei Ziheng looked at his senior brother with a smile, and at the same time looked at Qi Hong in his hand, and said: "There are countless swords in this world, there are 20 of them on the Tianxuanzi sword spectrum, and there are countless of them who have not entered the sword spectrum. If in another ten years, a new sword master and a new sword book may be announced to the world. When the time comes, your Qihong must be on the sword spectrum! ”

Sun Qi began to have some illusions, he put the sword into the scabbard, looked at the sky, and said with some majesty: "There are countless swordsmen in the world, but there are not many famous swords, there are countless swords in the world, but there are not many real masters. It's like there are a lot of talents in this world, but there are very few people who can decide the fate of the world, junior brother, I believe that the reason why my father handed over those thirteen articles to you is that I hope that you will be able to call for wind and rain in the court in the future, and pass unhindered between countries. ”

"Senior brother, you have said too much. Who would have expected that many celebrities in the past would have served the country, but after all, they did not take half a step to the court. If everyone in the world is like Baili Xi, Sun Shuao, Jiao Wei, and Guan Zhong, why not worry about the world is not a thriving trend. Wei Ziheng said insightfully.

Sun Qi smiled and said no more.

After a short rest, the two began to sit in the room and discuss, choosing a certain topic as they had done in the past at Qionglong Mountain, and the two sides adopted different opposites to debate.

At noon, a sound came from a place in the mountains, and according to some of the children of Wu League next to him, this was the leader of an extremely important subsidiary force of Wu League, and he had gone up the mountain to pay a visit.

It is said that this force is the largest force in Yanling, north of Gusu and south bank of the Great River, and the two places are separated by more than 100 miles, and if you travel day and night, it will take several days.

According to some information from the conversation between the children of Wu Meng, it is known that the name of the number one force in Yanling is Jianghehui. This force is under the jurisdiction of the Wu League, but how can it not be done with the specific execution ability?

But what can be understood is that this river society, in the Yanling area, has a very high prestige, the reason why it is called a river, is that this force almost covers the fishermen's operations in the area of the mouth of the river, and there are more than 2,000 people in the whole force, which is the largest force under the command of Wu League.

It is understood that the leader of this force, Yang Sheng, was originally an authentic bandit in the Yanling area. Later, after the fall of the Wu State, he also joined the Wu League, and then under the guidance of Ji Tao, the second leader of the Wu League, he actively devoted himself to the cause of the Wu League.

At this moment, a disciple hurriedly came over and said to Wei Ziheng and Sun Qi, "The alliance leader has an invitation, please go to the council hall." It is said that there is something important to discuss. ”

Sun Qi held the sword in his right hand, looked sideways at Wei Ziheng and said, "I'm afraid it's not a good thing?" ”

After Wei Ziheng tidied up his clothes, he went to the conference hall, and said in a somewhat relaxed tone in the middle: "Senior brother, you don't need to worry, they don't have any danger to us, but they are trying their best to recruit us. What do you think about this? ”

Sun Qi didn't know what to say for a while, as for this Wu Meng, the thoughts of the two were actually quite complicated, Sun Qi said slowly: "Let's take one step at a time, if they sincerely invite, it is not too good for us to refuse." ”

The two of them were walking into the conference hall, and they were still greeted by the gentle-looking leader of the Wu League, Ji Jianyong.

In Ji Jianyong, there are still the second and third masters of Wu League, Ertian, and Taihe. It's as if these three people are always inseparable.

On the other side of the lobby, Yang Sheng, the chief helmsman of the Jianghe Society, came to visit Wu Meng. This is a large man with a rough face, dressed in coarse cloth armor, arm muscles the size of a bowl, a long beard, a loud voice, and a domineering demeanor.

Ji Jianyong said to Yang Sheng unexpectedly: "These two are Mr. Sun's apprentices, and this one holding the long sword is Mr. Sun's own son. ”

Yang Sheng seemed to have special respect for the name of Mr. Sun, and after hearing that the two were Sun Chi's apprentices, he immediately stood up, clasped his fists very respectfully and said, "Two, it's polite." ”

Under the rough and wild appearance, it turned out to be a gentleman's conversation, and Wei Ziheng also replied with the same courtesy: "All the heroes and heroes who fought for the Wu League in the past, the younger generation Wei Ziheng, meet Yang Sheng's predecessors." ”

In someone else's territory, it's better to be soft and tactful in tone. But Sun Qi is not like this, in the face of such a character's greetings, Sun Qi is still a little unmoved, not that these people are not in his eyes, but these overly polite restraints, but will make him, a somewhat straightforward person, feel a little irritable: "Be polite." ”

Ji Jianyong made a gesture and invited everyone to take a seat, and then there were some relatively simple welcome ceremonies, saying some extremely polite words, most of which were some official words of the former Wu State, and then some ceremonial music began to play.

Wei Ziheng subconsciously looked towards the crowd of performers, and was quite surprised to see a woman dressed in white, she was wearing a white veil, and she couldn't see her face clearly, but her almost perfect body curves and clear eyes surprised Wei Ziheng.

Is it Qinglian from last night?

Yang Sheng seemed to be a little curious about his identity as Sun Chi's apprentice, and he took the lead in saying: "I didn't expect Mr. Sun Chi's apprentice to look like this now. ”

Ertian also said quite elegantly: "In the past war, Mr. Sun Chi traveled north to various countries, and now it has been 12 years. The people of the older generation of Wu Meng are getting old, Yang Sheng, we also express some regret for your father's death! ”

Yang Sheng heard these and said very generously: "Life is old, sick and dead, naturally it is destiny. My father is old, and he has done his best for Wu Meng for decades, and there is no need to regret that he can die for Wu Meng. ”

Taihe, who has always been a little arrogant, said with a masculine spirit: "Thinking about the past, I also fought side by side with Ling Zun, and I know his old man's virtues very well. If there is still a person like Ling Zun in the world, Wu Meng's big event is just around the corner. ”

Yang Sheng sighed softly, picked up a cup of hot tea on the table, drank it and said: "Life is like this tea, the hot juice will gradually recede after all, but the sweetest thing about tea is when he is tumbling bubbles." ”

The three people in charge of Wu Meng, after hearing this, couldn't help but be a little speechless.

Wei Ziheng stood up at this time and said: "Mr. Yang Sheng thinks that although it is true, there is something to say. The common people all over the world know that tea is served hot, and rice is eaten cold. Since ancient times, tea has been drunk only by guests, and for ordinary people, only the first meal of rice is hot, and in order to survive, they have to eat slightly cold rice.

In the same way, Master Sun Chi once taught that the principles of all things in the world are defined, but everything in the world is impermanent, and many general truths will only become smoke.

Just like the cup of hot tea that Mr. drank, most people think that the hot drink is the sweetest when the tea is boiling, but they don't know that the slightly cold and cold herbal tea is actually refreshing.

Whether this is good or not, in fact, it is not the tea that decides, but the people. Imagine a civilian who has never drunk tea, what will he feel like when he drinks this cup of tea? ”

Yang Sheng suddenly stood up, clasped his hands into fists and said: "What Gongzi said is very true, just like the ancient sage Youyun, there are many things in the world, and there are two who can achieve it, but there are countless planners. ”

Ji Jianyong sat on the high platform, smiled slightly, and then said very casually: "We won't talk about these empty truths, no matter how many words there are in the world, it is not as good as the truth of the hands, the plan is in the people, and the success is in the sky."

Today, I invite you two to gather with this chamber again, in fact, there is a matter of asking for something.

Now that Wu Meng is in short supply, I think the two of you have intentions and ambitions, can you hand over your ambition to Wu League? With the talents of the two in the future, the status of Wu League will definitely not be low. ”

Wei Ziheng suddenly hesitated.
