Chapter 53: I refuse
Li Xingzhou did not kick the stirrup and rushed forward with the ball.
He still waved his staff, but he still just waved his staff.
Li Xing swung his cane, and the polo ball swept over the heads of the opposing players who surrounded him, turning into a rainbow light and drawing an arc.
Like a comet in the sky.
Everyone looked up and looked into the air, their eyes following the red light.
As soon as the ball flew out, people knew from the angle that it was not passed to any one person.
Could it be that Li Xingzhou knew that the ball could not be passed accurately, so he deliberately sabotaged and wanted to let the ball out of bounds?
Immediately, they were dumbfounded.
The phantom that turned into a red streamer flew straight towards the opponent's goal......
Standing in the midfield and shooting straight at goal?
This style of play was beyond everyone's expectations.
Yes, the course they randomly demarcated on the beach is not very standardized, and it is indeed smaller than the standard course.
But it's not like standing in the midfield and throwing the ball directly into the door!
The balls used in the Tang Dynasty were made of solid wood, with limited elasticity and relatively heavy, and it was impossible to hit the ball into the opponent's goal when standing in the middle line and swinging the stick.
Even if you're a Hercules, you can't!
If you exert too much force, you will only break the crescent-shaped tip of the club.
Or the solid wood ball can't stand the force and shatters with one blow.
However, Li Xingzhou did it!
He swung out his staff, turned into a streamer, and shot directly into the opponent's door in the stunned eyes of everyone.
This is not something that can be done with infinite strength, it is necessary to have a large arm strength, and it is necessary to make a single hand skillful.
The ball was not struck, it was thrown when the club picked it up and spun it to the angle where it was most powerful.
Only in this way can we explain why the stick is good and the ball is not broken, but it can hit such a long distance.
However, when copying the ball, it should be soft, and when throwing the ball, it should be rigid, and the magic of using force should be single-minded.
This is not something that can be done if you understand the truth.
The ball flew into the opponent's goal, landed on the ground and bounced a few times, rolling all the way out.
Roll along the sand to the tent of the women who had been watching them bow on the other side.
The ball was flying away.
However, the crowd of onlookers cheered wildly.
Li Xingzhou swung his cane to hit the ball, the ball turned into a streamer, and the heroic posture of the stick frozen in the air was deeply imprinted in their minds.
On the edge of the field on Li Xingzhou's side, every time he scores a goal, a red flag will be planted.
The person in charge of the "singing chips" (referees) is planting a new red flag, and the flag of the big bear side has become a forest.
The courage of the opposing players to continue the game was completely crushed by Li Xingzhou's stick, and they reluctantly admitted it in the cheers of the mountain and tsunami.
"We lost!"
"Brother Yu, it's really good!"
Da Xiong laughed and raised his big finger at Li Xingzhou.
Li Xingzhou smiled, turned over and dismounted, and walked quickly to chase the red ball.
The horse, which had not run a step since the beginning of the race, snorted loudly, shook its head and tail to the side, and went to gnaw the grass on its own.
The glamorous girl in a bright red peony brocade dress reclined on the soft couch.
One hand is holding the cheeks, and the other is as white as jade palm, gently holding the red ball.
At this time, she had lost the youthful energy on the banks of the Luoshui River.
Her five fingers are slender, and her cardamom-painted nails are long, revealing an indescribable nobility.
At this moment, the red ball rested quietly in the palm of her hand, the ball was illuminated by the sun, and the red light seemed to be able to reflect the back of her palm.
Princess Taiping gently spun the polo and examined it carefully, and her eyes couldn't help but show surprise.
That's an ordinary hardwood polo with nothing special.
The boy standing in the midfield shot such a solid wooden ball into the goal with a single stick?
Princess Taiping raised her eyebrows in surprise, staring at the young man who was walking towards them,
Isn't this the one who has some Li Xingzhou?
In addition to composing poems, I can't see that he still has this hand!
As soon as Li Xingzhou arrived in front of the tent, several big men in brocade robes flashed out and stretched out their hands to block his way.
These people all seem to be subordinates, but they are all dressed in robes, brocade belts around their waists, and silk veils on their heads, revealing an extraordinary extravagance.
Looking at them again, they are all burly and clear, and the essence in their eyes is faint, obviously they are not good friends.
The master is known by the servant, and several domestic servants have done so, and the identity of the master can be imagined.
Li Xingzhou knew that these tourists must be extremely noble and powerful families, so he hurriedly stood up and walked long.
"I missed the ball and hit the ball into the account, disturbing the nobles, and I ask for forgiveness."
Princess Taiping, who was reclining, smiled faintly, and shook the palm holding the red ball gently, and several brocade-robed men who stopped Li Xingzhou immediately took a few steps back and got out of the way.
Li Xingzhou stepped forward, more than two feet away, bowed again and said, "Please return the polo." ”
He was still a little far away, and he still couldn't recognize Princess Taiping for a while.
Princess Taiping smiled faintly.
"You're not good at horsemanship."
She deliberately lowered her voice, her timbre slightly hoarse, with a slight magnetism.
When speaking, the rhythm is reserved and soothing, and it is as clear as a cloud.
Li Xingzhou felt as if he had heard this voice somewhere, but he still knew some measure. Laughed.
"Don't hide it from the nobles, I have never learned to ride a horse in Xia."
Princess Taiping's eyes flashed with surprise.
"Never learned to ride a horse? So, how do you practice your bowing? ”
Li Xingzhou said.
"It's the first time I've bowed."
Princess Taiping showed a slight surprise in her eyes, and looked back at the surrounding women and smiled.
"The first time you bowed, you had such a skill, have you ever seen it?"
The woman said with a smile.
"I've never seen it. If this Xiao Langjun hadn't lied, he would really be a bow prodigy! ”
Princess Taiping smiled slightly, affirmatively.
"He's not lying."
As she spoke, she turned her head, and a pair of bright eyes shone on Li Xingzhou's body and asked.
"What is your name, where does your family live, and what is your current business?"
She naturally knows Li Xingzhou's name, but she naturally has to do a full set of plays.
What's more, the meeting on the banks of the Luoshui River is more like a flirt between two lonely men and women.
Li Xingzhou hesitated slightly, and then decided to tell the truth in front of this Taiping princess.
I don't know why, this woman's momentum seems to have a penetrating magic, and Li Xingzhou intuitively feels a sense of threat.
There is no need for the other party to ask his name and surname, since he has asked, there must be a purpose.
If he makes up a name and surname, once the other party asks someone to check, it will ruin his business.
And it doesn't hurt to speak up to her, because none of Mrs. Wang's subordinates are here.
Li Xingzhou said: "Under the surname Li Xingzhou, I came to study in Luoyang, Qinghe Road. ”
Princess Taiping smiled.
"Oh! It turned out to be a great talent from Qinghe. ”
When she opened her mouth, Li Xingzhou's heart sank slightly, it turned out to be her?
Princess Taiping gently turned the red ball in her hand with a thoughtful look.
The red ball swirled slightly in her palm, and her water-cut eyes lifted slightly, and she smiled.
"Although you are new to Tsuki, you have a great talent for it. I have the heart to summon you into my house and concentrate on polo practice in the future, how about it? ”
Li Xingzhou quickly raised his eyes and looked at the three women who were sitting, secretly speculating about their identities, and opened his mouth to enter the mansion.
He quickly remembered whether he had offended her just now.
So, he replied cautiously: "I am a person who is used to being lazy, and I am not accustomed to going to the nobleman's house to do errands. ”
Princess Taiping raised her eyebrows, and before she could say anything more, the plain-clothed woman next to her had already said with a smile.
"Li Gongzi, don't be busy refusing yet."
"This noble man is a real nobleman, an indescribably noble man."
"Hehe, if you can win her favor, it will be a great opportunity for you."
Li Xingzhou smiled and said.
"You can't play ball for a lifetime, and although you are only a student, your life is stable."
"If you don't have great ambitions, you don't want to be rich, but you want food and clothing, and in addition to food and clothing, you can be free, which is enough."
Princess Taiping smiled slightly in her eyes and said
"Li Gongzi, don't be in a hurry to confess, you might as well think about it again, if you change your mind, you can come here to me."
She handed it out with a look, and a big man in a brocade robe had already handed something to Li Xingzhou.
Things start, heavy, Li Xingzhou looked at it, but it was a fish talisman made of brass.
The fish talisman is carved into the shape of a fish, and there are words engraved on it, which is a token used in the Tang Dynasty to prove the identity of the emperor and officials, which is the waist card said in the Song and Ming dynasties.
Depending on the status, the material of the fish talisman also varied, the prince used a jade fish talisman, the prince used a gold fish talisman, and the general officials and guards used a bronze fish talisman.
The waist card in Li Xingzhou's hand is a bronze fish talisman, with only a big "Wei" word engraved on the front, but a line of small characters on the back.
"Princess Taiping's Mansion walks."
Li Xingzhou Huoran raised his head and looked at the girl in amazement.
The well-cut and high-quality red dress palace skirt is wrapped in the seductive **.
The sun shone on her faintly shiny dress, as if she was a mermaid lying on the edge of Luoshui.
The jade feet walking by Luoshui Lake have been covered at this time, and she has lost the youthful energy by Luoshui.
She's the princess of the princesses?
Although Li Xingzhou in his previous life didn't learn and didn't know how to read, he couldn't read.
But Princess Taiping had heard of it.
Princess Taiping unsurprisingly saw shock, appreciation, and momentary intoxication in Li Xingzhou's eyes.
She smiled, waiting for the expected surprise and thanks.
"Hmph, let you bully me by Luoshui Lake!"
She thought to herself.
However, Li Xingzhou's gaze was only changed to a clear one in an instant.
Just like the Luo water under the river embankment, it is clear and clear.
"Everyone has their own aspirations, can they force it? The kid likes freedom, and the people who are used to being casual are really uncomfortable with the rules, and the kindness of the nobles is understood by the kid. ”
Li Xingzhou didn't reveal her identity, but just held up the waist card and returned it respectfully.
The three women were a little surprised, and the old woman suddenly burst into laughter.
"You young man, I don't think you can read, hehe, do you know that the one in front of you is ......"
Li Xingzhou didn't let her continue, but gave a long bow and interrupted her.
"Please give back the polo, don't dare to disturb the nobleman's fun."
The old woman choked slightly, and there was some anger in her expression.
