Two days later, Sun Huozi was ordered to rush back from Handan and personally treat Luo Cheng. After checking the pulse first, and then looking at the other party's tongue coating and the bottom of the eyes, the old man put away the guy who was eating, and said with a smile: "The son has strong bones, and occasionally has a cold wind, which is difficult to endure." It's just that there is a breath of gas in his chest that can't be dispersed in time, so he can't recover. I'll prescribe you some medicine to soothe the liver and moisten the lungs, and you can take it for a while. In fact, you can do this disease without taking medicine, the key is that people should be open-minded and don't think nonsense! ”

In the past few days, Luo Cheng has been giggling with Cheng Mingzhen, Wu Tianxi and others all day long, and he has felt a lot more relaxed. Hearing Sun Huozi say this, knowing that what the old man said was true, he clasped his hands into fists, bowed down and said, "Thank you for your advice." The younger generation is taught! ”

"Actually, you're so young, there's nothing you can't get over. As long as you live, the capital is there, and there is always a chance to get it back if you lose in the front! Seeing that the young man was polite, Sun Huozi smiled and enlightened.

"The younger generation really couldn't think about it a while ago. After meeting Brother Cheng, I already feel a lot better! Luo Cheng nodded and agreed with a smile.

"You are a martial arts practitioner, don't always be bored in the room if you have nothing to do. Be more active, bask in the sun, and naturally recover faster than the average person. Look at this door shaft, it can't be worn out every day, if you don't use it for a long time, it will rot by itself! ”

It's all simple truths, Luo Cheng understands it as soon as he hears it. After thanking the old man for his guidance and sending the other party away, he immediately decided to give it a try according to the other party's instructions.

Cheng Mingzhen arranged for him to live in the west courtyard behind the government, which is for guests to rest for a long time in terms of layout, so the objects and facilities inside are very complete. Not only is there a small martial arts training ground in the middle of the courtyard, but even eighteen kinds of weapons are readily available. Luo Cheng walked over, picked up his usual horse lance from the weapon rack, and performed a few postures, feeling that it was too light, and the elasticity and weight were not smooth. picked up a standard Mo knife in the Great Sui Army, danced a few knife flowers, and felt that killing the enemy on the horse was too cumbersome, and it was not suitable for his familiar movements at all, so he put it down. Then he picked up a two-foot and four-foot-long lance, this time the weight was in his hand, the length was too long, and he could still deal with it on foot, and if he got it and immediately confronted the enemy, he would definitely suffer the same loss.

Frowning and thinking about it, he thought about it. Grabbed the Kaishan Yue on the weapon rack and chopped off the six feet of the rifle and cut it to about the same length as the horse lance. Then replace the lance and lance of the horse lance on top of the lance to find the balance point of the hand. Then he felt a little rough, so he simply untied the red tassel from the ash pole next to him, tied a knot, and tied it under the lance.

This time, a handy and beautiful weapon was formed. Not only can it wield the power of the horse lance, but the red tassel under the blade can also confuse the opponent's sight. What's more, the cost is low, and you can make it after you lose it, so you don't have to suffer from the damage of weapons. Carrying a weapon and playing in the open space a few times, his confidence increased greatly, provoking stabbing blocks, and the moves were the most ruthless moves he had learned in his life. The human lance gradually merged into one, with a terrible cold light, sweeping the surrounding flowers and leaves one after another.

If you fight Li Zhongjian on the same day, ....... In the midst of the falling cherry blossoms in the sky, Luo Cheng couldn't help but imagine in his heart. Since he followed his father on the expedition at the age of eight, how has he ever met a real opponent? When he was a child, Luo Yi's guards helped him solve hard ideas in advance. After the age of thirteen, ordinary samurai could no longer stop him. And those generals under Luo Yi who have been famous for a long time, how can they hurt their own young marshals. During the competition, he either announced that he was physically exhausted after a few perfunctory strokes, or he deliberately sold flaws for him to catch, and he won every game with great ease.

Over time, Luo Cheng realized that his martial arts were among the best in the world. As long as you rush forward and stab your horse, no matter how strong the enemy is, you can't stop it. Who expected to meet Li Zhongjian in Hejian County, only to understand that the so-called number one in the world in martial arts is just a big joke. The black knife in the other party's hand was not the right way at first glance, but it made a move to eat himself to death. If it weren't for Li Zhongjian's unwillingness to completely destroy the six counties of Boling, even if there were ten Luo Cheng, they would have been unloaded by the people.

Thinking of these embarrassing things, the force of his shot became stronger and stronger unconsciously. It was as if there was really an opponent with a black knife standing there in the falling flowers, fighting with him one by one. "This trick, how to crack it!" "What should I do?" "Look at this move again......" The opponent's moves that day were almost engraved in his eyes, making him try again and again, but once he didn't succeed, he didn't succeed and again again. In my heart, I have never forgotten what Sun Huozi said just now, young people are not afraid of losing, as long as they live, they have capital. There is always a chance to get it back if you lose in front!

It wasn't until he cracked all the knife moves he remembered that day that the flames burning in his heart gradually subsided. Slowly retracting the grabbing momentum, he looked closely, and the falling flowers formed a big circle around him, but in the center of the circle, not even a single petal fell.

"Good!" A cheer rang out, completely pulling Luo Cheng back to reality. Looking up, he was now Cheng Mingzhen, Wu Tianxi, Xiong Kuohai and Wang Fei and others were all there, everyone looked at him, and kept applauding, and the edge of his palm had already turned pink.

"Brother Cheng, Brother Wu, brothers......" Luo Cheng was ashamed to surrender his hand to everyone. The long lances just now were so happy that he was so oblivious that he didn't notice when everyone came and when they started applauding him.

"Brother Luo makes a good hand!"

"Wu really opened his eyes this time, there is such a method in the world!"

The crowd gathered around and expressed their admiration.

"Everyone, everyone, I'll blush if you praise me again!" Getting acquainted with everyone as an equal, Luo Cheng also learned to be a little flamboyant, and responded while lifting his shirt to wipe his sweat.

"You kid looks better when he's blushing than when he's white!" The majestic sea punched him in front of him, laughing and joking. "What is the origin of this lance, it's so murderous."

"It's the wild road I learned in the military back then, and I didn't come from!" Luo Cheng didn't want to tell the truth, so he smiled perfunctorily. "Actually, it's all showmanship, and it can't be taken seriously. If a few of you go to the battlefield, you will definitely be better than me! ”

"You person, the more you boast, the more fake you become!" Xiong Kuohai took the lance that Luo Cheng made by himself and waved it a few times, "No, I can't use the lance in my life, or use a stick to make it easier!" ”

"Brother Wu, you have two tricks to open my eyes?" Luo Cheng took back the lance and politely handed it to Wu Tianxi. He had seen Wu Tianxi's strength that day, and guessed that the other party should be a fierce general. So I want to take the opportunity to learn from each other's strengths.

"I can't use this thing even more, I'm a step general, and it's the easiest to use the Mo knife!" Wu Tianxi pushed it away with a smile and reached out to remove the Mo knife from the weapon rack. "With the killing method you just had, fighting alone, I can't support twenty moves under you. But with 50 people each, it will be difficult to tell the winner from the loser! ”

"Brother Wu's words are very meaningful, I don't know if I can say more details!" At this time last year, Luo Cheng would definitely not be convinced, and maybe he would have to pull Wu Tianxi to compete. But today's he is no longer yesterday's Wuxia Ameng, knowing that there are people outside the world, and there are heavens outside the sky, so he would rather bend down and ask for advice.

"Your tricks are too tricky for ordinary people to master. Bringing fifty brethren with you is no different than fighting alone. And I practiced all the ordinary moves, fifty people, and the level of training was about the same. Cooperate with each other, divide forty people to block the perimeter, and the other ten people are divided into two groups to take turns to besiege you one! Wu Tianxi compared and introduced the essence of Modao's hand to Luo Cheng. These experiences are all summarized by himself, so the explanation is very intuitive. Luo Cheng followed Wu Tianxi's gesture and looked at it, and immediately understood the truth. After thinking about it, he bowed down and said, "Thank you Brother Wu for your advice." Listening to your words is better than reading a book for ten years! ”

"Pull it, don't hold me. This little bit of goods in my stomach is not taught by the head teacher! Wu Tianxi pointed at Cheng Mingzhen and introduced it to Luo Cheng with a smile.

Cheng Mingzhen didn't expect the topic to turn to his head when he was talking, and he was about to deny it, but Luo Cheng had already handed over the long lance, "Brother Cheng has to make a few moves today no matter what." The younger brother has long heard that the eldest brother is both civil and military, if he can't see it today, he won't be able to sleep well for the rest of his life! ”

Cheng Mingzhen's martial arts foundation is extremely solid, but his tricks are downright half a bucket of water. didn't dare to embarrass himself in front of Luo Cheng, an expert who made a lance, stretched out his hand to push the weapon away, and said with a bitter face: "Don't listen to Wu Tianxi's nonsense, when did he learn martial arts from me." I don't know how to use a lance at all, and I can't use a Mo knife, even the horizontal knife used to save my life is a wild way that I have saved! ”

"The wild road is not necessarily the right way!" Luo Cheng smiled and shook his head. "Before my father became famous, he was called a scimitar barbarian. I haven't even touched the horizontal knife, and I relied on a picked up Xianbei scimitar to charge into battle! ”

"Ling Zun is also from the army?" Cheng Mingzhen listened cordially and asked. As a general, he instinctively has a respect for the tough guy who fights for fame with his skills.

"What's more! Don't you see that my father and I have only two words in our names? Luo Cheng smiled and was honest. When my father first joined the army, he didn't even get mixed up with a halberd. All with a scimitar, one by one, he fought from a small soldier to his current position. ”

The halberd is the lowest position in the Great Sui Martial Arts, and basically as long as the children of a good family join the army, they can get this false position. In this way, the background of the Tiger General Luo Yi back then was almost the same as that of everyone present. It's just that his unremitting efforts have finally led to today's glory.

"I can't imagine that the Tiger Ben General on the famous move plug has actually been on the same list as me!" The more Cheng Mingzhen listened, the more cordial he became, and his eyes couldn't help but glow with admiration.

"My father often said that people are not animals, and they don't need to be famous and bloody!" Luo Cheng smiled and nodded, "It's just that I, an uncompetitive son, have never understood his words." By the way, Brother Cheng just said a word, dare to ask Lord Lingzun, has he also served in the army? ”

Hearing this, Cheng Mingzhen couldn't help but shake his head and sigh, "Brother Luo's guess is not bad, my father did work as a military attache in the imperial court." It's just that he was accidentally involved in the lawsuit of General He Ruo, and he was robbed of his fame and stuffed! ”

"Old General He Ruobi?" Luo Cheng was shocked when he heard this, and regretted in his heart that he shouldn't have poked people in the sore spots, "That's a big injustice?" Didn't you make a point up or two later? Or is someone getting in the way? ”

"Why didn't you dot it!" Cheng Mingzhen shook his head and smiled bitterly, "When my father was in office, he couldn't bear to be cheeky to make money, and after the accident, my mother sold all the family property that could be sold, and she couldn't dredge the joints." Alas! ”

As for the matter of finding his father, he has long lost hope in his heart. Since the failure of the Eastern Crusade, the Turks have repeatedly made trouble on the border. As a criminal army of his father, he must be a stepping stone in the front line. Even if the old man is lucky enough not to die in battle, now that the government affairs of the Great Sui Dynasty have been abolished, he carries gold and silver to give gifts, and he doesn't know who to dredge, let alone whose hands his father has fallen into now!

"And then you raised the banner of righteousness in anger?" Thinking about Cheng Mingzhen's life experience, Luo Cheng came to a conclusion as a matter of course.

"How could it be, I was only a little older then!" Cheng Mingzhen continued to smile bitterly and shook his head, "My mother took me back to Ping'en. I studied and practiced martial arts every day, just to gain fame and fame when I grew up, and personally went to His Majesty the Emperor to wash away my father's grievances. As a result, before I could get involved with the word fame, Zhang Da had already hit the city gate. My mother fled early with me, and I barely escaped the catastrophe and fled to Guantao County to seek refuge with relatives. Then Zhang Da's family attacked Guantao again, and I helped the county order to defend the city, but instead I was charged with colluding with foreign enemies, and I almost lost my head! ”

These things are all experienced by him personally, so they don't need to be embellished with words, and they are also very vivid to talk about. Luo Cheng grew up in a honey pot since he was a child, how could he have heard of such a rarity, and he was so angry that he swung his fist straight, "Dog official, dog official, he deserves to be cut by a thousand knives." And that faint king, if it falls into our hands one day, we must dismantle it in eight pieces! ”

"Now that I think about it, that dog official is also for self-preservation!" Cheng Mingzhen sighed and summarized in a low voice. As time passed, he saw everything in his past life more and more clearly, and he saw more and more lightly. The way of this world is to make good people unable to live, and the more bad guys mix, the more nourishing they are, so why blame one or two of them for going with the flow? After careful calculation, is Dou Jiande a good person? Is Luo Yi a good person? Are you a good person? I'm afraid everyone has someone else's blood on their hands.

"You're so generous!" Luo Cheng glanced at Cheng Mingzhen, and was very puzzled by the other party's bloodless remarks. In his opinion, manly husbands are rampant in the world, and grievances are clear. If there is kindness, it will be rewarded, and if there is revenge, it will not be forgiven. How about a hundred years of confusion? How can it be compared to a vigorous and joyful one!

"It's not generosity, but there's no way! The dead man is already dead, and I can't kill him a second time. The wrong thing is already wrong, and I can't do it all over again. Cheng Mingzhen admitted frankly.

Thinking about the fact that Cheng Mingzhen is willing to give up his territory, his performance in front of him has become understandable again. Luo Cheng sighed with him, and comforted him in a low voice, "Don't be discouraged, my family still has some ways to plug it." I'll write a letter to Youzhou later, maybe I can help a little! ”

"The border is so long, who knows where my father has gone?" Cheng Mingzhen continued to smile bitterly, "Brother has this heart, I am very grateful." As for whether he can reunite with his father, he can only resign himself to fate! ”

"Not necessarily!" Luo Cheng undoubtedly knew more about the border affairs of the Great Sui than anyone present, "The imperial court disposed of the army ...... back then" paused, and he added with a smile, "This is just a general term, and most of them must be wronged." Mainly to four places, Youzhou, Mayi, Lingwu and Zhangye. If it was Zhangye in the west, my family would be powerless. If it is only from Ma Yi and Lingwu to Youzhou, my father still has a lot of old friends. Even if they have become rivals now, it is not a problem to write a letter to them to help them get someone! ”

"In this way, thank you Brother Luo!" Cheng Mingzhen was surprised and delighted in his heart, clenched his fists and stood solemnly, and solemnly gave Luo Cheng a salute.

"Brother Cheng, Brother Cheng, you will see the outside again like this. I eat yours now, use yours, and I haven't been so polite to you! Luo Cheng hurriedly dodged sideways, and then returned the courtesy.

"Then there's the Lauro brothers. In the future, wherever Cheng is required to do his best, as long as Cheng can do it, he will never dare to refuse! "When I find my uncle, it's not too late for you to say this again." Luo Cheng smiled, very sensitively aware of the conditions in Cheng Mingzhen's words. From the proximity of the position, according to the Youzhou army and the Dou family army, there will be a battle sooner or later. At that time, whether the two sides are friends or brothers, jump on their mounts, and each will be his master. But now, it's all about it. "Come, I'll accompany Brother Cheng through a few tricks to dissipate the depression in my heart!"

"I'm no match for you." Cheng Mingzhen refused to accept Luo Cheng's suggestion and smiled and stepped aside. "Those few strokes just now are enough for me to know the gap between us. Instead of beating you for nothing, it's better to stay away from you and watch the excitement! ”

"Brother Cheng laughed at me again!" Luo Cheng glared at him hatefully, and then found Xiong Kuohai, "What about Brother Xiong, do you have time to point out one or two brothers?" ”

"I'm going to use it

Eyebrow stick, your weapon is too long, I will suffer compared to you! Xiong Kuohai also dodged sideways, and said angrily.

Luo Cheng's comprehension of martial arts had just entered another level, but he couldn't find anyone to verify it, so he jumped on the spot in a hurry, "You people are not righteous, didn't I listen to Uncle Sun's words to move my muscles and bones?" It's boring to move alone, it's better to squat in the house and sleep! ”

The crowd laughed at him, but no one would come forward. Everyone had seen Luo Cheng's martial arts just now, fighting alone, and no one present was definitely his opponent. If his request is not met, this little martial idiot will definitely continue to entangle. After thinking about it, Wu Tianxi smiled and suggested, "If you want to compete, you can also do it." But it can't be compared like that. Several of us are all people who have led soldiers, and we know that the role of individual bravery on the battlefield is actually very limited. It's better to find some more people to come and drill on the school ground. Each guards a piece of territory, and whoever loses the flag first loses. ”

"Okay, I'm about to see General Wu's Mo Sword Formation!" Luo Cheng's eyes lit up and he happily agreed.

Seeing Luo Cheng's interest so strong, Cheng Mingzhen also felt a little itchy. nodded with a smile and said loudly: "Then bring a hundred people each, and I will count a wave with Tianxi and Kuohai." Brother Luo is good, and he and Wang Fei are counted as a wave. Everyone is here, the winner is not allowed to hurt people, and those who are not strong admit defeat happily! ”

"Okay!" Everyone agreed, and then each found a weapon and went to the school field for actual combat drills.

The "Woo woo" flag officer blew the horn and announced the start of the first round of drills, Luo Cheng had the heart to try the catties of the people in Zhouzhou, so he asked Wang Fei to take the rear to take a look, and he led the team to pounce on Cheng Mingzhen's Chinese army first. Just halfway through the rush, the people on the left have been squeezed out by Xiong Kuohai with a big shield in his sword hand. Regardless of the scattered formation, he continued to swing his division and attack, Wu Tianxi cut diagonally from the right side again, used the wooden stick tied with Ge cloth as a Mo knife, and swept half of the soldiers on the right flank in a ping pong. The remaining ten soldiers followed Luo Cheng and tried to move forward, Cheng Mingzhen took a few steps back, entangled one person with three people, blocked all the "enemy troops" out of the circle, and let Luo Cheng approach alone, but fought with more than a dozen brothers on wheels. After a few moves, Luo Cheng knew that he was invincible, so he jumped out of the circle and shouted: "I lost this game, let's do it again!" ”

"This time you come to defend, I'll attack!" Cheng Mingzhen also shouted loudly on a whim. Summoned Wu Tianxi and Xiong Kuohai to his side, and when Luo Cheng gained a firm foothold in the distance, he immediately pounced on the left, center, and right.

"You take thirty people, no matter what method you use, you must withstand the majestic sea for a quarter of an hour!" Luo Cheng didn't even look at Wang Fei, and ordered loudly. immediately pointed out the same thirty soldiers and rushed straight to Cheng Mingzhen. This time, Cheng Mingzhen couldn't stop him, and was forced to retreat again and again. Wu Tianxi saw that the momentum was not good, so he quickly turned around and copied Luo Cheng's back road. was returned to the horse by Luo Chengxun*, not only did he not get it cheaply, but even the Mo knife array was disrupted.

Before Wang Fei could entangle with Xiong Kuohai for a quarter of an hour, Luo Cheng had already driven Wu Tianxi away and turned around to help. The two joined forces and "annihilated" all the troops in the vast sea. Without waiting for Cheng Mingzhen to fight back again, Luo Cheng handed over all the remaining forty fresh troops to Wang Fei and asked him to outflank him, although he captured Cheng Mingzhen's general flag. But he took the remaining remnants of the soldiers with him, staring at Cheng Mingzhen and Wu Tianxi.

After a "fierce battle", the soldiers around Luo Cheng were lost, but Cheng Mingzhen's flag was pulled out by Wang Fei, so he had to abandon his weapon and admit defeat. It's been a long time since I've exercised so intensely, and both sides are starting to gasp for breath, but they both feel like they're not having fun, laughing and provoking each other.

"How about another round to decide the winner?" Luo Cheng didn't look for others, he just teased Wu Tianxi.

"Come on, you will never be deceived a second time!" Wu Tianxi's obsession with the battlefield was no less than Luo Cheng's, and he agreed with hot air.

The two sides opened up again and slowly approached. This time, everyone knows that the other party is not easy to mess with, so they are all divided into extra caution. Don't seek merit, first seek no fault. The team has been "fighting" for half an hour, and Luo Cheng has no Modao team here, and he has lost most of his "losses", so he can no longer attack effectively. There were more than a dozen "tired soldiers" left under Cheng Mingzhen's command, but Wu Tianxi and Xiong Kuohai were both judged to be "seriously injured" by the flag officer in charge of the referee and rushed directly to the sidelines. Luo Cheng held a wooden pole and guarded the flag around his house, Cheng Mingzhen sent his brothers to rush over to increase the losses, and wanted to transfer the tiger away from the mountain tiger but was not fooled, so he had to lead the team to rush up and fight with Luo Cheng.

With the support of a few brothers, he was really not Luo Cheng's opponent, and after a few moves, he was already scattered and lost his rules. Seeing this, Luo Cheng stabbed two * sharply, then turned around and pulled out his own flag, jumped out of the circle with it, and shouted loudly: "Tie, even if it is a tie this time, how about it?" ”

"It's Brother Luo who won!" Cheng Mingzhen put down his weapon and said while wiping his sweat.

"If it was before the two armies, I would have lost so much that I couldn't lose anymore! How can there be a military general who has lost all his brothers and can still rush to kill alone alive! In the face of Cheng Mingzhen and these people, Luo Cheng couldn't be arrogant. wiped the sweat from his face and retorted with a smile.

"If your command was replaced by a Youzhou Tiger Ben, I wouldn't even have a place to find the bones!" Cheng Mingzhen shook his head and pointed out the unfairness of the competition. The three strongest generals of the Zhaozhou army faced Luo Cheng and Wang Fei, and the soldiers under the other party were still unfamiliar with them, so they still couldn't win in this situation, and the strength of the leaders of the two sides had already been clear.

"Youzhou Tiger Ben is not trained by me!" Luo Cheng refused to accept such a victory, smiling and waving his hand. "It's better to be a tie today. If I meet Brother Cheng on the battlefield in the future, I will definitely be more vigilant! ”

"The ghost wants to meet you again!" Cheng Mingzhen shook his head with a smile.

The guests and hosts looked at each other and smiled, and an indescribable feeling welled up in their hearts.
