Volume 2 Wei State Chapter 022 Famous Sword Dragon Yang (I)
Lu Yu was asked a lot of questions by him in a row, and he didn't know how to answer for a while, so he had to answer while making up nonsense in his head: "The first question, the burial of the Longpo landslide is within the calculation of the family teacher, and the younger brother is just acting on behalf of the heavens; The second question is that those thieves were indeed killed by the younger brother, and when you and I have time, we will know that what the younger brother said is true; And the last problem is that the younger brother received the order of the family teacher and returned to the teacher's gate, so when the younger brother entered the beam, he came from the north gate instead of the south gate. ”
Ximen Hou was dumbfounded when he heard this, and couldn't help but admire Guiguzi's "divine calculation", and secretly admired Lu Yu's swordsmanship, and suddenly felt that Lu Yu was unfathomable. Of course, he didn't know that these words were all made up by Lu Yu. immediately said excitedly: "This is very good, it is really a great pleasure in life to be able to learn swordsmanship with Brother Lu." ”
And after Lu Yu said it, he couldn't help but regret a little, Guiguzi's sword moves to kill those bandits that day were exquisite, and he had only learned half of them at most, if he really let him demonstrate it, maybe he would immediately go through it. Now Ximen Hou promised to learn swordsmanship with him, and he became a difficult situation to ride a tiger, so he had to agree first.
I thought that anyway, I would bluff Simon Hou first, and whether there would be a chance to learn in the future was another matter.
Simon waited for great joy, raised his glass and said, "Come!" Just for the little brother to know a hero like Jiaolongxia, do it! "That's it.
Lu Yu smiled embarrassedly again, and drank the small glass of spirits head-on.
"Good!" Ximen Hou laughed and instructed the flower girls to pour wine for Lu Yu.
I was making a fuss when I suddenly heard a moving string sound coming from the hall outside the private room.
Lu Yu and Ximen Hou were eating and drinking in the private room, and suddenly heard a girl playing and singing in the hall on the second floor, and the singing was very pleasant, which made Lu Yu curious, thinking that he could hear such a moving singing skill in a brothel. He couldn't understand what he was singing, but he felt that it sounded like a natural sound, which was very comfortable.
The singing seemed to attract everyone in this building, and the noise that originally came from the next door and the hall suddenly quieted down, not just Lu Yu's private room.
It seems that it is floating from the sky to the world, accompanied by the guzheng, the song is pure and ethereal, and the loud place is full of every corner of the drunken orchid fang, when it is low, everyone does not even dare to breathe loudly, for fear of destroying this perfect artistic conception.
Until the song was sung, there was a thunderous cheer, which lasted for a long time.
Lu Yu couldn't help but cheer.
Ximen Hou smiled: "I didn't expect that Brother Lu was also interested in music. ”
Lu Yu said embarrassedly: "Mr. Simon is smiling." The little brother just thinks that this song should only exist in heaven, how can I hear it a few times in the world, so I can't help but applaud with everyone. ”
Simon Hou slapped his thigh vigorously and shouted: "A good song should only exist in the sky, how many times can I hear it in the world, wonderful, really wonderful!" Come, just for this one, this song should only be in the sky, how can the world smell it a few times and then toast three times! ”
Lu Yu was complaining in his heart, and Xiao Rou said angrily: "The two of you only remember the pleasant singing voice of our sister Yu'er, and leave our sisters behind!" If the slave family does not follow, this is to blame Lu Ye, and the slave family will punish Lu Ye for drinking three more cups. As he spoke, he rushed to fill Lu Yu's cup with wine.
Ximen Hou hugged the flower girl named Yan'er in his arms and said with a smile: "Are you trying to get Jiaolongxia drunk here?" I don't agree, how can I be so biased. After saying that, he laughed again.
Only then did Lu Yu know that the owner of this beautiful singing voice was called Yu'er. Remembering that in his strange dream, one of the two women was also named Yu'er, so it couldn't be so coincidental that it was the same person, right? But I don't know if it is also as beautiful as its name, as beautiful as jade?
However, Lu Yu drank several glasses in a row, and he almost never touched this kind of liquor before. The reason why I feel like a strong liquor is that every sip feels like it is burning from my throat to my rectum. But this wine is different from the white wine he has drunk, in addition to a faint floral aroma, it is also accompanied by a hint of sweetness. This greatly reduces the taste of the alcohol inside, and it tastes as easy as a cocktail.
But he knew that the wine would have a strong stamina.
Suddenly, the sound of the guzheng sounded outside again, suppressing all the atmosphere that had just become noisy. When everyone thought that there was another song of heaven, they unexpectedly heard a pleasant female voice and said: "I heard that Jiaolongxia Lu Yu is in Zuilanfang, can you please move and come out to see it?" ”
Since everyone's attention was on this Yu'er, it seemed that even the air was condensed except for her, so what she said just now, Lu Yu even suspected that even the people downstairs could hear it clearly.
Ximen Hou and Lu Yu looked at each other, but they didn't expect this Yu'er to see Lu Yu by name as soon as she spoke. Ximen Hou deliberately showed a jealous expression, and whispered: "This Yu'er girl is the top brand of Zuilanfang, and her face is very big, it's not that you can see it if you have gold." Now that she has nominated you to see you, this is really envious of the little brother. ”
Lu Yu secretly wondered in his heart that a woman in a Qinglou was so shelf-like, wouldn't that be equivalent to a big star in the 21st century, and he should really go out to meet her for a while.
Accompanied by Ximen Hou, he stepped out of the private room, and everyone's eyes shot at Lu Yu. For the first time in his life, Lu Yu felt the feeling of "all eyes on him", like a star appearing on the stage of a concert, and was expected to perform his upcoming solo show.
In the center of the hall on the second floor, a woman covered her face with tulle, combed her hair in a bun like a swallowtail, and her pair of bright and deep eyes under the two curved willow eyebrows were like autumn water, which looked very smart and energetic. Although she couldn't see her face under the veil, it added a sense of mystery to her, and people couldn't help but want to uncover it to see her face, but they were afraid of violating this weak and delicate stunner. A lilac gown set off her delicate and convex figure, and her skin was as soft as cream, making it hard to imagine that the curved natural sound just now was produced under these flexible fingers.
If it weren't for Yu'er's light cough, Lu Yu felt as if he was intoxicated in a beautiful painting, which shows that this woman is indeed attractive.
Such a beautiful woman should have been born in a rich family, but she didn't know why she fell into the land of fireworks?
When he came back to his senses, he saw that this stunner frowned slightly, and seemed to be a little dissatisfied with Lu Yu's rudeness.
Lu Yu coughed dryly twice, broke the embarrassing atmosphere of the scene, made a gesture, and said to Yu'er: "In Xia Lu Yu, I have seen Miss Yu'er." ”
Yu'er nodded slightly, and said softly: "The slave family heard that when Lu Ye was burying Longpo, he fought against hundreds of thieves with the strength of one person, and actually caused the burial of Longpo to crack and landslide, for such a story, the slave family is very interested, but I don't know if this matter is true?" ”
Ximen Hou rushed in front of Lu Yu and said: "If Miss Yu'er is willing to sit in the private room, I promise to tell you the ins and outs of this matter." ”
As soon as Simon waited for these words to come out, it caused an uproar among everyone present. This means that Yu'er wants to go directly to the private room to accompany a few of them, which no one wants to do. They spent money just to meet this red-card beauty, and they usually can't invite her, but now Ximen Hou openly invited her, if it weren't for the fact that the visitors present knew that he was Xinlingjun's person, it is estimated that someone would have stood up and flattened him. Of course, the strength has to be better than him.
Not only were the people present dissatisfied, but even Yu'er was slightly displeased, and said lightly: "So, Mr. Simon was also burying Longpo at that time?" When Lu Ye fought against three hundred thieves alone, Mr. Simon was watching coldly from the sidelines? ”
Lu Yu secretly thought that this woman was really very powerful, and even though she knew that Ximen Hou was Xinlingjun's person, she still dared to question what he said in this tone, and she didn't give him face at all. You must know that the ancients attached great importance to face, let alone the subordinates of Xinling Jun, one of the four sons of the Warring States Period. If you don't give him face, that is, you don't give face to Xinlingjun, if Xinlingjun investigates it, it's not a joke. However, Yu'er dared to do this, which shows that her backstage will never be a simple character.
Sure enough, Lu Yu found that the expression on Ximen Hou's face was embarrassed and with a hint of dark anger, as if he wanted to swallow her in his belly. I couldn't help this woman, but I couldn't find a step to go down for a while. Rao is ability to adapt quickly, so he just stuffed the topic to Lu Yu: "Why don't you ask the Jiaolongxia in front of you, I have a brotherly relationship with him, of course he has told me everything about the matter." ”
Lu Yu couldn't cry or laugh, he had indeed told Ximen Hou the "facts", but it would definitely not be as magical as what he spread in Daliang City, and even the title of Jiaolongxia could not be fully accepted by him in his heart until now. But at this time, he can't lose the face of Ximen Hou, after all, he has to rely on his relationship to see Xinlingjun. smiled at the moment: "Why should the two of you quarrel over this trivial matter, it's just that I am lucky, and those few thieves can eliminate harm for the people, which is what I should do." ”
Everyone present, including Ximen Hou, was in an uproar. I didn't see Lu Yu with his own eyes the scene of the landslide that led to the burial of Longpo with his voice resonance, and he couldn't understand how he could say the three words "good luck" so lightly, more than 300 thieves had become "just a few thieves" in his mouth, could it be that this person's ability had reached the point where he could be so arrogant?
Yu'er, like everyone else at the scene, fell into deep thought.
Suddenly, a person in the corner said: "The competition between me and Jiaolongxia has not yet been decided!" ”
Everyone's eyes were immediately attracted by this voice, and they couldn't help but look at that corner, wanting to see who was talking to him, and he had actually done something with Jiaolongxia.
In the corner, a fair-skinned man with big ears stood up, who else was Mr. Jing?
Lu Yu thought that he had forgotten to ask Ximen Hou about the origin of this Mr. Jing just now, I don't know where this gentleman is, when he was at the city gate, Ximen Hou knew that he was embarrassed by himself, but he still did not offend him, presumably this person's backstage is also a person who Ximen Hou cannot afford to offend. Even so, he has no grievances with this person, and he actually wanted to kill himself at the city gate, and now he is openly provocative, if he doesn't give him some color, there will be more trouble in the future.
I didn't expect to embarrass myself at the city gate just now, and now I appeared in Zuilanfang at the same time.
Before Lu Yu could speak, Ximen Hou stepped forward and said coldly: "Jing Jie! Don't think that with your master's backing, you can deceive people too much! If you want to test your swordsmanship, I, Ximen, will accompany you at any time. ”
It turned out that this person's name was Jing Jie. Lu Yu knew that now he was "popular" by Ximen Hou because of the battle of Longpo, and at this time he must try his best to win himself over and stand on his side, after all, Lu Yu also expressed his desire to see Xinlingjun. The people present saw the atmosphere full of gunpowder in the confrontation between Ximen Hou and Jing Jie, in order not to harm themselves, many people had already left the scene, leaving only a few good deeds in the corner still waiting for a good show to be staged.
At this moment, another female voice said: "Could it be that Xinlingjun is not here, and his dog slave is here to make a lot of nonsense, and he doesn't take Benjun in his eyes?" ”
Lu Yu followed everyone's eyes, and saw a few warriors with a man in a white samurai uniform, with their hair tied into a crown, the crown was inlaid with precious pearls, the skin was fairer than that Jing Jie, but the figure was more slender and slender, a three-foot-long bronze ancient sword at the waist, a round jade pendant hung at the hilt, and the scabbard was engraved with a bird seal that Lu Yu couldn't understand, presumably it was at least a good sword of the same level as Zhang Wu's bronze sword.
Looking at the man's appearance again, Lu Yu couldn't help but gasp. There are few men in the world whose eyebrows are as delicate as him, seemingly born rather than deliberately trimmed, a pair of gently provoked Danfeng eyes have a bit of charm that men should not have, and even in this melon seed face, the straight nose bridge and slightly pouting thin lips make people find the slightest disharmony.
Presumably, beautiful men in ancient times, such as Long Yangjun and Pan An, are nothing more than that! Lu Yu sighed secretly, the word "stunning beautiful man" is used on him, which is by no means an exaggeration.
And the "female voice" just now turned out to be from this man! Lu Yu couldn't help but wonder if there was something wrong with his ears, the beautiful man in front of him was not only charming, but also had a voice as eloquent as a woman. When he looked at the others, he found that except for all the eyes focused on this person, no one was as surprised as Lu Yu, it seemed that everyone here knew the man in front of him.
I only heard Yu'er, Jing Jie and others salute at the same time: "Meet the king." ”
Ximen Hou whispered to Lu Yu: "This is Longyangjun..."
As soon as the three words "Long Yangjun" came out, Lu Yu's body suddenly shook violently.
The beautiful man in front of him turned out to be the "famous" Longyang Jun. Lu Yu remembered that the annals said that he was the male favorite of King Wei, and his appearance was so beautiful and charming that even the beauties of King Wei's harem would be eclipsed in front of him! Legend has it that this person's swordsmanship and martial arts are extremely high, ranking first in the Wei Kingdom, and Lu Yu had seen Ximen Hou's exquisite swordsmanship when he left Chu State, and felt that Jing Jie's swordsmanship was not comparable to Ximen Hou, and although he was taught by Guiguzi when he was in Mengshan, but the time was still short, so Lu Yu was not completely sure that he could beat the two, if Longyang Jun was really as powerful as the legend, and the swordsmanship was above the two, it was estimated that it was even more unimaginable.
Ximen Hou's face sank, but he pretended to bow respectfully to Long Yangjun, and then lowered his head and whispered in Lu Yu's ear: "That Jing Jie is his person." ”
Long Yangjun's sharp eyes swept over everyone, and finally stopped at Lu Yu, and said lightly: "Benjun just heard downstairs that someone wanted to test swordsmanship, I don't know who it is?" ”
Jing Jie said with a smile: "Back to the king, the villain was originally trying to test the swordsmanship with Jiaolongxia at the north gate, and he didn't want Mr. Simon to suddenly appear and stop the villain and interrupt the competition, so I was about to make an appointment with him to compete again." ”
Lu Yu and Ximen Hou greeted Jing Jie's ancestors for the eighteenth generation.
Long Yang Junqi said: "Where is Jiaolongxia? ”
Lu Yu learned from Ximen Hou and bowed to Long Yangjun, and said, "Thanks to all of you, it is the villain Lu Yu." ”
Long Yangjun laughed and said, "It turns out that you are the Jiaolong Man who defeated three hundred thieves in Longpo, and you are really a little chivalrous." Come, how can you test your swordsmanship without this gentleman? Jing Jie, you have a few tricks with Jiaolongxia, so that Benjun can see and understand. ”
Ximen Hou hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Brother Lu has just arrived in Daliang, can you test the swordsmanship on another day?" ”
Long Yangjun frowned, and said unhappily: "Such a character's swordsmanship must be good, Ximen waits for you not to spoil the fun." ”
Ximen Hou wanted to say something more, but Lu Yu gently patted him on the shoulder from behind and said with a smile: "Since you have spoken, then you will accompany Mr. Jing to play a few tricks." ”
Long Yangjun smiled lightly, and his eyes never left Lu Yu: "It's really bold enough." If you can defeat Jing Jie within a hundred swords, this monarch guarantees that no one in Dawei will dare to embarrass you Lu Yu in the future. ”
Lu Yu was shocked when he heard this. I secretly complained in my heart, and I knew my own ability. With only a hundred swords, how can he defeat this swordsman whose swordsmanship is on par with Ximen's.
Jing Jie had a smug expression, it seemed that he was also very confident in himself, and he didn't believe that Lu Yu could defeat him within a hundred swords.
However, Ximen Hou was full of confidence in Lu Yu and thought that it would definitely not be difficult for him. After all, more than 300 bandits can be killed, even if it is Jing Jie? It's just that he didn't know that more than 300 bandits, almost more than ninety percent of them were buried in the landslide, and the remaining seven or eight were not killed by Lu Yu, but by the hands of the famous Guiguzi.
In today's situation, I had to bite the bullet and demonstrate the swordsmanship taught by Guiguzi in my mind from beginning to end, and find out the swordsmanship that was most likely to defeat Jing Jie and that I could use. Suddenly, a flash of inspiration came to him, and Lu Yu already had a way to defeat Jing Jie.
At this time, I only heard Yu'er say: "Yu'er has a proposal, if you want to test your swordsmanship, you can go to the open space in the backyard, then the guests can drink and have fun as usual, and watch, why not?" ”
Long Yangjun was overjoyed when he heard this, and immediately said, "Okay! Just Miss Yiyuer, Jing Jie, you will compete with Jiaolongxia in the backyard, don't break other people's things here. With that, he let Yu'er lead the way, surrounded by several samurai, and walked downstairs.
That Jing Jie naturally followed behind like a dog.
Ximen Hou deliberately dragged Lu Yu to the end, took a few steps away from them, and whispered in Lu Yu's ear: "Brother Lu, please kill Jing Jie for me, and the younger brother will be responsible for all the consequences." ”
The backyard is located in the north of the downstairs of Zuilanfang, about 100 square meters, except for a stone well on the left and right, a stone table, there is nothing else, which also provides a good space for the upcoming competition.
Long Yangjun stood in the center of the clearing, looked around at everyone, took a glass of wine in his hand, and said in his mouth: "Before the competition, Ben Jun had a personal question, I don't know if Jiao Longxia can answer for Ben Jun. ”
It sounded like Long Yangjun had a question in his heart and wanted Lu Yu to answer, but Lu Yu knew from his tone that no matter what question he asked, he had to answer. This person is the male favorite of King Wei Anjiao, and his status is so high, I believe that even Xinlingjun will still be jealous of him, Ximen Hou naturally does not dare to offend, he is now on the same front as Ximen Hou, of course, he has to do it, otherwise if he angers Long Yangjun and performs a drama to chase after him, it will not be so fun.
So Lu Yu replied: "Your Excellency, please speak." ”
Long Yangjun said: "In the past two months, from Xiangling to Daliang, no one knows your Lu Yu's name. It seems that Benjun also heard that you studied under Yunmeng Mountain, but I don't know if it's true? ”
If it is said that when he first left the Chu realm, he told Ximen Hou that he was Guiguzi's apprentice, and it was Lu Yuhu who made up in order to get by, but later he was really brought to Yunmeng Mountain by Guiguzi, and under the teaching of Guiguzi, he learned the seven methods of Yin Fu and the seven swords of Yin Fu, and even the boxing method of Yichuan. Although he didn't really worship Guiguzi as a teacher, living as an apprentice of Guiguzi was definitely not a fake. Lu Yu didn't want to make a high-profile claim about his relationship with Yunmengshan, but he had no choice but to go through Ximen Hou's push and hype, if he didn't admit it, wouldn't it become himself biting his tongue?
For various reasons, Lu Yu had no choice but to answer: "The question raised by the gentleman is answered in the affirmative. ”
