Chapter 15: Meeting the Head of the House (1)

As long as you reveal something, if you want to find Liu Xie's intentions, you will guarantee that your life will be lost immediately. In such a well-walled city, it would be wishful thinking to escape.

Thinking back more than 400 years ago, without the help of Lü Buwei, a big merchant at the same level as the current He family, Qin Shi Huang's father Yiren would not have been able to escape back to Xianyang, the capital of Qin. Even if he could contact Liu Xie, there was no way to rescue him out of the city.

Is this how you want to die for the He family? So what should the old man's last wish do? Zhang Xiaotian was thinking wildly here, and he didn't even notice Shang Yin's arrival.

Zhang Xiaotian sighed deeply, and it was only at this time that he realized Shang Yin's existence, "What are you doing when you get up, don't you have a good rest." He said with an awkward smile;

"Brother Xiao, how can I have such a great blessing as you, the head of the family rewarded me to you, which shows how much he values you.

I've never seen him treat anyone so well, I'm just tired, I'm going to be jealous. Shang Yin said jokingly,

"Today is the day when the head of the family receives you, I will take you to the city of Hejia to meet the master immediately, and tonight you will not accept any invitation from the group of brothers who have been born and died with you.

There's someone who wants to see you, and I'll take you there, but now I can't tell you who that is. ”

At this time, Zhang Xiaotian's heart moved, and he remembered the woman on the chariot, Mrs. Fen.

He Mansion is located in the east of the city, is the most magnificent manor in this area, there are no residential houses around, all are mainly gardens.

I saw the beautiful trees and green onions, the strange flowers flickering, a clear stream, from the depths of the flowers and trees zigzag under the stone gaps,

Gradually to the west, flat and open, on both sides of the flying building plugged in, carved beams and painted columns, are hidden in the mountain col between the treetops,

Pavilions, pavilions, ponds, pavilions, and water pavilions are reflected in the green pines and cypresses; Rockeries, flower beds, bonsai, vines and bamboos, dotted among them.

Zhang Xiaotian didn't care about enjoying the beautiful scenery, so he followed Shang Yin into the world of the He family's city mansion through the side door.

After entering the main gate, the first thing that catches your eye is a martial arts training ground that can accommodate thousands of people to practice together.

A civil structure of five large main houses, on both sides of the wing room deer top ear door drill mountain, extending in all directions, magnificent, facing the other end of the main entrance, the left and right sides of the house continuous.

At this time, hundreds of people were practicing swordsmanship, horsemanship, and archery in several groups. However, the most lively is the archery range, where nearly 100 samurai are watching, and cheers erupt from time to time.

At this time, Shang Yin's face suddenly became unnatural.

Zhang Xiaotian involuntarily walked a few steps forward, only to see that the archer was a heroic young man wearing a felt scarf, wearing a blue brocade robe, a golden belt around his waist, and black boots.

The benchmark straight slender figure, wheat-colored healthy complexion, tiger back and bear waist, full of masculine charm.

Such a handsome and romantic character is only seen in his life.

I saw him put the arrow on the strong bow, and the hand that drew the bow was still holding the other two arrows, and sat on the horse with his waist down.

The bowstring snapped three times. I saw three strong arrows chasing one after the other, shooting away the red heart of the first arrow target like a meteor, and then the last two branches broke through the air one after another, and forced into the tail of the previous arrow, connecting into a string.

The audience was fascinated and applauded.

Zhang Xiaotian was also dumbfounded, if he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he would definitely not believe it.

Shang Yin whispered in his ear: "This warrior Qi Xiao was recruited by my sworn enemy Liu E, no matter swordsmanship, riding skills are the crown of my mansion,

This time I lost more than 200 horses, and Liu E had already sued me in front of my master. Just Brother Xiao, you are back, so I can save some face.

But this Liu E and Qi Xiao will not let go of the two of us. ”

"My current swordsmanship may be able to compete with this Qi Xiao, but I'm afraid I can't ride and shoot."

Zhang Xiaotian looked embarrassed at this time.

At this time, in the crowd of onlookers, a budding flower bloomed, and a young girl, I saw her running to Qi Xiao's side excitedly, talking to him affectionately.

I saw that Qi Xiao hurriedly handed over the big bow in his hand to others, and replied politely.

"Who is this?"

Zhang Xiaotian hurriedly asked,

"This is the master's favorite granddaughter, Miss He Shu'er, I like Qi Xiao a little, but the master seems to want to marry her into the royal family, and Qi Xiao is worried about this. Let's go, the master is still waiting for us. ”

The two of them left the crowd and walked towards the mansion.

Suddenly, there was a loud shout from behind: "Miss Shang, please take a step slowly!" ”

Hearing this, the two turned around in amazement,

I saw that Qi Xiao came with the crowd, and behind them was the Miss He Shu'er.

Zhang Xiaotian's eyes fell on He Shuer's pretty face, but there was no such amazing feeling, although she was very beautiful and successfully attracted Zhang Xiaotian's attention,

But Shang Yin's accident had already produced a deep sense of guilt for Diao Chan in his heart, which made him cut off the idea of hunting Yan. Besides, he had an insight into He's motives, and he didn't want to provoke any more trouble, a Shang Yin had already given him a headache, and the feeling of being manipulated was very bad.

At this time, Zhang Xiaotian suddenly felt someone gently tugging at his clothes.

He looked up and saw that He Shu'er's face had already shown displeasure, and Qi Xiao was looking at him coldly, looking very unpolite. Shang Yin saw that the atmosphere was not right, and hurriedly introduced the two people.

"It turns out that you are Xiao Tian, my grandfather admires you very much!" He Shu'er said coldly,

Qi Xiao leaned slightly towards He Shu'er to show some kind of intimate relationship with her, but in the eyes of the person from the twenty-first century in front of him, his behavior was simply a pediatric practice.

"I admire Brother Xiao very much, it's better to choose an auspicious day for the zodiac, let's learn together, and let me learn the Shenqi swordsmanship that can block a thousand horse thieves alone."

Zhang Xiaotian couldn't hear his words, but they were actually sarcastic, implying that Shang Yin was exaggerating, and he couldn't help but feel angry at this time.

"If you can have a free fight with such a conceited person, you can definitely beat him to the head of a pig, but it will be more free than the others." Zhang Xiaotian secretly thought,

"Brother Qi's archery skills are superb, the younger brother is out of reach, how can I learn from Brother Qi, and when I have free time, I have to ask Brother Qi to teach me more."

He Shu'er originally heard that they were going to compete in swordsmanship, and her face showed excitement, and when she heard Zhang Xiaotian say this,

"Coward!" Turn around and go.

"Brother Xiao, you are really disappointed, so I am not strong!"

After speaking, he turned around and chased in the direction of He Shu'er.

Zhang Xiaotian was calm, smiled freely, and continued to walk towards the main room with Shang Yin.

Zhang Xiaotian finally met the head of the He family in the side hall,

This head of the He family is actually a round from a distance, and up close, it is also composed of one circle after another, and his face is like a round ball.

The fat face showed the treacherous, shrewd look of a businessman,

His nose is also round and fat, covered with green tendons, indicating that he is a womanizer.

The round belly bulged high, like a large cauldron used by hundreds of people to cook rice, buckled on his body.

The brocade robe on the body is embellished with pearls, luxurious and luxurious, and the belt tied around the waist is shining brightly, and the gold and silver flakes set off each other. He sat on a three-story platform, and at the bottom of the steps thirty-six guards lined up on either side, and the faint of heart would have been frightened to death when they saw such a voice.

Zhang Xiaotian and Shang Yin knelt down and bowed, He Shi retreated left and right, his slender eyes opened, and two cold lights shot out, falling on Zhang Xiaotian's body, looking up and down,

Then he said coldly: "Zhang Xiaotian, why don't you dare to accept Qi Xiao's challenge, is it in vain and has a mighty appearance?" Zhang Xiaotian was stunned when he heard this, and Shang Yin was just about to explain for him, only to hear He Shi shouting violently, and said unhappily:

"Although Qi Xiao is a rare talent, he is a Qiang person, not my race.

So I specially told him to challenge you, so that my Han people can show their strength, but you were cowardly before you fought, what else do you have to say now? ”

Zhang Xiaotian scolded secretly in his heart at this time, but he was neither humble nor arrogant: "What Xiao Tian learned is the method of killing, not the kind of game skills that compete with each other. ”

"What's the difference between the two?" He said with a sneer;

Zhang Xiaotian had already figured out He's heart at this time, and then said: "This method of killing people is unscrupulous, and the enemy must be killed.

And the competition is just to see whose swordsmanship is more elegant and exciting than whom, and there are more games than battles, which is naturally another thing. When He heard this, his anger gradually subsided,

"Then I can't let you kill a few of my men, let's show it." Dissatisfied.

When Zhang Xiaotian heard this, his eyes immediately lit up, and he smiled lightly: "Since the master has high hopes for Xiao Tian, then I will fight with Qi Xiao, but I can't stipulate what method I use to fight and defeat him." ”

"You are really interesting, the saint has always wanted to have Han people who can frustrate Qi Xiao and raise my reputation as a great Han.

Good!
