Chapter 35: The Feast (2)

(Celebrate the signing of the contract with a new chapter.) )

Seeing that he was going to play with the pitcher, Guan Shanhe's interest was half dissipated first, and he muttered: "This is only for girls." ”

Hearing this, Chen Cheng glared at him, knowing why this guy was brave and daring to fight, he was only a big soldier after six years. Tian Yucai said that he is good at throwing pots, and then you will say that it is played by girls, this kind of emotional intelligence, it is not easy to live so big. But when I think about it, he can fight so well, maybe it's because of this character.

He walked over and picked up two arrows, walked ten steps to dig, and said, "Hey, I'll show you first." ”

With that, he raised his hand and threw an arrow into the jug, then turned around and took a step forward, throwing another arrow out with his backhand. "Click", the arrow fell into the flask, shook for a while, and then stood side by side with the previous one.

When he was a child, he was very envious of the stunt of "Xiao Li Flying Knife", and later knew that he had to dye his hat green to practice, so he extinguished that thought. After getting the plug-in, I rekindled my childhood dream, practiced hard for a while, and practiced the proficiency of "throwing weapons" to more than 300, and I could hit 100 shots in 30 steps.

Then, he found that even if he threw it accurately, the damage of the throwing knife was too low, and it was better to throw the javelin. However, although the javelin is quick and powerful, it is much worse than the bow and arrow. So he's a lot better at archery than he is at throwing now. Of course, although he is not best at throwing, he is still much more powerful than everyone in the hall.

Seeing his ability to throw his backhand, Wei Ran and Zhao Si and these old subordinates clamored together and shouted: "Okay! ”

"The county lieutenant has good skills!"

Jin Sanhuan had recently learned some Chinese, and he also shouted: "General Shenweitian! ”

While Chen Cheng was performing, the soldiers brought up wooden plates containing food one by one and placed them on the table in front of the attendees. On a wooden plate are chopsticks, sake glasses, sake jugs, cooked rice, and two large crabs.

When Guan Shanhe saw that there were crabs, he immediately felt reel, and he couldn't care about anything else, so he took out the short knife he was carrying and gnawed it first.

Chen Cheng only pretended not to see his behavior, and said with a smile: "For more than a month, everyone has worked hard, so I will give you a cup first." But apart from the jug of wine in front of you, if you want to drink it again, it depends on your ability. ”

After he drank a cup, he said to Tian Yu, who was seated: "Tian County Ling wants to say a few words to everyone?" ”

Tian Yu stood up, walked to the center of the hall, and said, "I don't have anything to say, everyone just eats." I'll try my luck! ”

He picked up an arrow, walked five steps away, and said with a smile: "I don't have the ability to be honest, it's enough to go so far!" ”

With that, he held his breath and stared, and as soon as he raised his hand, the arrow hit the mouth of the wine jug, and he saw that it was about to fall in, but it deflected and fell out. "Oops", Tian Yu slapped his forehead and said regretfully: "It's just a little bit worse!" ”

Chen Cheng smiled: "It's already very good, it's just a little luck." ”

He said to the people who were kneeling on the ground on both sides: "Let's take five steps as a limit, and the one who wins will enjoy a pot of wine, and one person will come at a time!" ”

With that, he walked to his seat. His seat was in the second seat on the left-hand side, the chief was given to Guan Yu, and Zhao Yun was in his subordinate position. The coal fire in the basin of Dading is booming, and the soup inside is boiling to a "gurgling" sound, and the aroma soon fills every space in the lobby.

Chen Cheng sat down next to Guan Yu, picked up his wine glass, and said, "I'll do it first as a respect, second brother is free." This beef is freshly killed, very fresh, please use more. ”

Guan Yu was sitting in a precarious position, even if everyone in the hall had already lost his shape, he still straightened his waist, just like Zhao Yun who was separated by a seat. Tian Yu said something in the middle of the hall, which attracted laughter and applause from the whole hall, Chen Cheng turned sideways and took turns to persuade Guan Yu and the others to drink, but only after toasting Zhao Yun, he did not persuade him to drink again.

Zhao Yun didn't care, and ate the crab first, and then ate some beef and mutton. Even if Wei Ran and Deng Ran came over to toast with a grin, he only tasted it. Similarly, Guan Yu doesn't drink much, but he eats a lot of meat.

The soldiers, who had already eaten their meals, kept walking in and out, serving dishes one by one and distributing them to everyone in the table. He has eaten roasted whole sheep, tripe wrapped meat, steamed lamb, boiled fish and other delicacies, which are usually difficult for everyone to eat, so they threw off their cheeks and worked hard.

Many people loosened their belts and stuffed their mouths into their mouths.

After three rounds of wine, five flavors of food, and the meat soup in the big ding in the hall had been cooked, Chen Cheng helped the soldiers fill each person with broth, handed it to him personally, patted this one on the shoulder from time to time, beat that one's chest, and thanked them for their hard work for more than a month. Of course, he definitely can't use all his strength, if he uses enough strength, let alone a human, even a tiger will be hammered to death.

Although his face was flushed from drinking, everyone was very excited, and Jin Sanhuan even hugged his thigh and shouted, "My lord, I am willing to be your dog!" ”

Although Ding Yuan spurned Jin Sanhuan, the shameless Hu man, he also began to think about whether he should hug Chen Cheng's thigh.

The so-called: the punishment is not the doctor, and the courtesy is not the same as the courtesy. These people are either rough men in the army, or Biansaihu people, and even the remnants of the rebels, none of them are serious scholars, it is Tian Yu, who is also from a poor family. Compared with the children of the official eunuchs who cultivated and read the heirlooms, they have always been in the lowest position in the political map of the Han Empire, but they pay more attention to loyalty and gratitude.

Chen Cheng laughed and said, "What are you doing as my dog?" In the future, if you do things for the county order, you will repay me! ”

Everyone in the hall drank a cup together, and the guests and hosts were all happy. Jian Yong sat behind Guan Yu, and when he saw the situation in the hall, he couldn't help but be frightened, he leaned behind Guan Yu and said in a low voice: "Do you think that Yun Chang is very terrifying about this Chen Cheng?" ”

Although Guan Yu hadn't drunk much wine, it was only relative to the other people in the banquet, and his own pot of wine had already been drunk. The wine is relieved to be mixed with honey, and it is still very top. At this time, he was already a little drunk, and when he heard this, he was stunned, turned around, and asked, "What did you say?" ”

Jian Yong looked at Chen Cheng, who was laughing loudly in the hall, and said worriedly: "I have never seen anyone like Chen Wenzheng, who can push his heart into people's wombs!" Look at those people in the hall, even if he wants to make trouble, I'm afraid that no one will object! ”

Guan Yu thought that Jian Yong would say something amazing, but after hearing it, he couldn't help but laugh dumbly, shook his head, and said, "Xianhe, Wen Zheng is such a person. ”

He stroked his three-foot-long beard and said with a smile: "If it weren't for that, how could I get along with my eldest brother at first sight?" ”

In the middle of the lobby, Chen Cheng held a wine glass in his left hand and a spoon in his right hand, knocked, and the crisp and pleasant sound suddenly spread all around. Everyone fell silent and looked at him together. Chen Cheng smiled: "Today's feast, is it happy?" ”

"Of course it's merry!" Guan Shanhe put his hands on the desk, straightened up, and shouted: "If you can do this every day, you will live ten years less, no, you will be willing to live twenty years less!" ”

Everyone laughed, Chen Cheng also laughed, he took a few steps in the hall, and said loudly: "The husband can't eat five tripods, and he should cook for five tripods when he dies!" ”

Pointing to the five tripods in the middle of the lobby, Chen Cheng said with a smile: "Today, we will feed on the five tripods, and we can call ourselves husbands in the future!" ”

He also said: "Today is extremely joyful, and I am willing to dance the sword for all of you, and smile with Bojun!" ”

He shouted to the court, "Take my sword!" ”

Wei Ran jumped up and shouted, "I'll take the sword for the general!" ”

He ran down the hall as fast as he could, as if he was afraid that someone would rob him. After a while, Wei Ran ran in front of Chen Cheng with an eight-sided Han sword, he knelt down on one knee, raised the Han sword, spewed wine in his mouth, and shouted, "The sword is here!" ”

This eight-sided Han sword is a fine product in the army, weighing three catties and three taels, with a simple shape and a cold feeling. As soon as Chen Cheng stretched out his hand, he pulled out his sword in a "choking" sound, first pulled a sword flower, and then chanted: "Go to the heavenly pass, the smoke surrounds the abyss, and the verdant light extinguishes the Xia Mountain." Under the clouds, ten thousand gullies go to the famous river, and the Tenglong ferry counts the white sails. ”

It was getting late, and the soldiers lit dozens of tallow torches around the hall, illuminating the lobby as if it were day. Chen Cheng swung his sword and slashed, the blade trembled in the air, making a clear sound, and the flames more than ten steps away actually shook with it, and the power was extraordinary.

While dancing the sword, he sang: "Knock on the double que, the gold and stone smell the sound, and the wind blows through a thousand years." Changing the new city, Yu Ding is in danger, and Jiuli still sees the old man returning. ”

Tian Yu, who was sitting at the top, was still smiling when he first heard Chen Cheng sing, but when he heard this, he couldn't help but look solemn. He straightened up and listened to Chen Cheng continue to sing: "The long music is noisy, the flying colors are luan, and the earth immortals are turning into the night; Three or five dressed in gorgeous shirts, feasting dragon pan, and the young man throwing pot is full of spring. ”

I don't know when, the banquet was already silent, the torches were "crackling", and other than that, only Chen Cheng's singing was flying around the hall.

"Singing and dancing, Yongchang seems to be happy, and the wine is more persuaded during the banquet; The crane returns late, the full moon hangs in the air, and the beauty verandah leans on the railing. ”

The faster Chen Cheng dances the sword, the louder his singing becomes, "Drunk and circulating, drunk and talking, it is difficult to spy on the truth and falsehood in Dingzhong; Plotting and calculating, the blade is hidden in the dark, and the ambition is chaotic! ”

Jian Yong's eyes also became confused, he looked at Chen Cheng who was dancing and singing in the hall in a daze, and for some reason, his eyes were dead. Shocked, he wiped his eyes and looked to the right and left to see if anyone had seen his gaffe. Who knows, but found that the people around him were already in tears.

After singing again, Chen Cheng's eyes seemed to have many faces that he had known but could never see again. He wanted to put away his sword, but he couldn't help but continue singing.

When Chen Cheng started singing again, Tian Yu finally couldn't help it, he pulled out the sword he was wearing, crossed into the middle, and danced the sword while crying, and sang along with it in his mouth. This song is not sung by others, it is he Tian Yu and everyone here who is singing!

Everyone in the banquet tapped swords and dishes, and sang loudly, ".......... The long music beats the drum loudly, the flying color luan, and the earth fairy turns into the night; Three or five dressed in gorgeous shirts, feasting dragon pan, and the young man throwing the pot is full of spring.........."

Although it is already autumn, who says that autumn cannot have spring?

Dozens of people sang together, and the song shook the surrounding area for several miles, and the soldiers and people nearby couldn't help but stop and listen, "Jumping on the sun and moon, the stars fall on the blue boat, and a waterfall waves goodbye to the dust; Thunder and lightning, tigers and wolves test the panhuan, and a few people return to the wilderness. ”

Wait for the sentence "Plot and calculate, the blade is hidden in the dark, and the heroic plan is chaotic!" After singing, everyone was stunned in their hearts.

Chen Cheng finally stopped, he looked at the void in the distance in a daze, and after a while, he sighed and said, "Today's feast will end here." ”

He showed a smile to Guan Yu in the seat, and then said to Zhao Yun on the side: "Zilong, come with me." ”

Zhao Yun was puzzled and walked out. I saw that on the school ground, dozens of comrades from the white horse had already sorted out their outfits and led the horses to line up neatly. Zhao Yun was shocked and said, "What does Wen Zheng mean by this?" ”

Chen Cheng brought the white horse over and said warmly: "I knew that Zilong had the intention of returning to General Zhonglang, but I saved your life, and you hesitated in your heart, wanting to repay me, and refused to say it." But I, Chen Cheng, am I a person who wants to repay my kindness? ”

He stopped Zhao Yun, who wanted to speak, and said with a smile: "My brother is a dragon in the clouds, loyal and righteous, and heroic, how can he lie dormant in this small pipe city?" I've packed my bags for you, and I'm on my way to the moonlight tonight. And I will resign from my official position as a county official next year and go south, so today can be regarded as a farewell. In the future, we will be in the south and the north, but I am afraid that we will not be able to see each other for a long time. ”

Zhao Yun: "I.......... Does Tian Xianling know about this? ”

Chen Cheng said: "I told him a long time ago. ”

"What is Wen Zheng going south for?"

Chen Cheng pondered for a moment, his tone unconsciously became heavy, and said, "I have seen the tragic situation of swords and soldiers rising everywhere, and the people are anointed by the blade. If the chaos is imminent, I think I can still do something to make this world less dead. ”

He smiled and said, "I'm going to find a master to end the turmoil in this world!" ”

Chen Cheng stuffed the reins of another horse into Zhao Yun's hand and said, "The package contains dry food, drinking water and some money, although it is not much, but it is also my heart, Zilong must not refuse." ”

He pretended to be heroic and said: "The eldest husband was born in troubled times, and he should carry a three-foot sword and make immortal achievements!" If you have a heart, please work hard to let the name of Changshan Zhao Zilong resound in the sea and let everyone in the world know! At that time, even if it is thousands of miles away, I will raise a glass for you! ”

Hearing this, Zhao Yun could no longer hold himself, took two steps back, bowed down, and choked up: "I can't meet Wenzheng early!" But this is the fate of our warriors! ”

With that, he jumped on a white horse and hit the horse out of the school field. Otherwise, I am afraid that I will not be able to bear to leave.

The moon was bright, and Zhao Yun took dozens of horsemen out of the east gate by taking advantage of the moonlight. After crossing the trench, he reined in his horse, reluctantly glanced at the city wall behind him, and was about to set off, but heard the sound of horses' hooves behind him. Looking back, I saw Chen Cheng riding a grunt of Gollum.

Zhao Yunxi said: "Wenzheng! ”

Chen Cheng rode to Zhao Yun's side, stuffed the iron-tired bow into the other party's hand, and said with a smile: "For the general, you should be diligent in cultivating the way of bows and arrows, although Zilong is a cavalry general, this archery ability cannot be left behind!" ”

He laughed and said, "Okay, leave while I'm drunk, or I'll be reluctant to let you go when I get up tomorrow morning." ”

With that, he slapped Zhao Yun's mount on the buttocks. The white horse was in pain, neighed, and rushed out. Zhao Yun was at a loss in his mind, and it took a while before he came to his senses and hurriedly looked back. Under the moonlight, on the back of the fiery horse, Chen Cheng was still looking at this side.

Zhao Yun turned around and gritted his teeth hard, but he couldn't stop the tears rolling down.
