Chapter 354: The Blind Knife

The emperor seemed to be very satisfied with Chu Huan's two wins and two games, and asked Zhou Ting: "Zhou Nayan, in your opinion, how is Chu Huan doing today?" ”

Zhou Ting said respectfully: "Back to the saint, Chu Huan's riding and archery skills are not bad, and he is more eager and wise, he is indeed a rare talent, the saint has a good eye for people, and the ministers are full of admiration!" ”

The emperor smiled: "It's also the first time I've seen Chu Huan show his skills, but I haven't disappointed me. looked at the queen and said with a smile: "Queen, today's competition can be regarded as exciting, what does the queen think?" ”

The queen bowed her head and said: "Congratulations to the concubine on the saint for being a good talent again!" ”

King Qi couldn't help but say, "Father, Chu Huan is so powerful, hurry up and seal him an official......!" ”

The queen frowned tightly, and said: "Yingren, don't say much, how to reward, the saint has his own plans, there is no need for you to say more here." Her expression was originally very soft, but at the moment she had a serious color, and the majesty of her mother was also extraordinary.

King Qi was obviously in awe of the queen, lowered his head, and didn't dare to say more.

The two competitions also took a lot of time, the emperor was old, but he was a little tired, looked at Zhou Ting, and asked, "Zhou Nayan, do you think this third formation needs to be compared?" ”

Zhou Ting said: "Shengshang, the minister set three games, not to clear the customs with two wins in three games, but also to comprehensively test Chu Huan's ability. Seeing that the emperor's face was tired, he said: "The holy dragon body is heavy, if it is tired, this third formation is not comparable." ”

At this moment, there was a loud voice over there: "Holy Lord, the minister will beg the Holy Lord for permission, so that the minister will compete with Chu Huan." And they looked at it, but they saw that it was noble.

Gao Ya underestimated the enemy last time, and was controlled by Chu Huan's move, although he clearly ordered his guards not to spread the word, but where can this kind of thing be covered, and I don't know who leaked it out in private, although it is not known to everyone in the streets and alleys, but many people in the guards already know it, and Gao Ya can even feel that some guards are now looking at him a little wrong.

He held a grudge, and it happened that Zhou Ting handed over the horse race arrangement to the guards in advance, and Gao Ya took the initiative to ask Ying to arrange the running field, so he came to the Imperial Garden today.

He originally wanted to take advantage of today's assessment to make Chu Huan make a fool of himself in public, so that he could also eliminate the feeling in his heart, who knew that Chu Huan was shocked by his skills after two battles, and defeated Ma Zhongheng and Xuanyuan Shengcai in a row, and he was in the limelight for a while.

Seeing Chu Huan's great scenery, Gao Ya couldn't bear it anymore, and couldn't help but take the initiative to ask for a battle with Chu Huan.

The emperor glanced at Gao Ya and was about to say something, but at this moment, he saw a eunuch rushing over, bowing down in front of the emperor, and said: "Qi Sheng, Feng Yuanpo, the governor of Hexi Province, has entered the palace and begs to meet the Shengshang." ”

The emperor frowned and said with a smile: "The big nose is coming?" Let him come and see me! ”

Chu Huan was stunned, he knew that Hexi Dao was the northernmost part of the Great Qin Empire, and it was already bordering the northern barbarian tribes, and the main force of the northern barbarians was gathered in the northeast, but there were still many tribes in the north that were nomadic, and Hexi Dao was also responsible for the defense of the northern part of the empire.

The emperor called him "Big Nose", which was obviously a nickname, and it also showed that the emperor attached great importance to this governor of Hexi Province.

The eunuch left and retreated, and the emperor said to Zhou Ting: "Zhou Nayan, what do you think of this last battle?" ”

Zhou Ting glanced at Gao Ya, who was full of expectation, frowned slightly, the martial arts competition arranged in advance was not made by Gao Ya, Chu Huan won two battles in a row, which had already made the emperor very satisfied, and the emperor didn't seem to have much interest in the third formation, he groaned slightly, and replied: "But it is up to the saint to decide." ”

The emperor stroked his beard and said: "Since Gao Ya took the initiative to ask Ying, I will give you this opportunity, if you can defeat Chu Huan, I will give you a promotion!" Then his expression was slightly gloomy, and he said, "But if you are defeated by Chu Huan's hands, I will demote you by one level!" ”

Gao Ya was stunned, but at this time, it was already difficult to ride a tiger, and he would not retreat on the spot, so he could only arch his hand and say: "Thank you!" He looked at Chu Huan coldly.

Chu Huan could only sigh in his heart, this elegance was obviously carried away by anger, and he even had to challenge himself.

Last time in the Ximen Department, although it was a little unexpected to defeat the enemy with one move, Chu Huan judged from the reaction and degree of elegance at that time that there was still a gap between elegance and his own martial arts.

Gao Ya had already pulled out his saber, Chu Huan did not wear a sword when he entered the palace, King Qi was about to find someone to find a knife, but he heard someone say: "Chu Huan, take the knife!" But it was Xuanyuan Sheng who threw his saber over.

Chu Huan stretched out his hand to take it, and nodded slightly to Xuanyuan Shengcai, Xuanyuan Shengcai also smiled, An Guogong Huang Ju on the big chair had been squinting his eyes, as if he was asleep, seeing this scene, a faint smile crossed the corner of his mouth, and it was fleeting.

With the lesson of the last time, this time Gao Ya naturally didn't dare to underestimate Chu Huan, threw the scabbard aside, held the handle of the knife tightly, and stared at Chu Huan, only worried that Chu Huan would suddenly make a move again.

Although Chu Huan knew that his martial arts were definitely better than Gao Ya, but it was not easy to defeat the enemy with another blow, last time Gao Ya was completely because of the light enemy, and Chu Huan, who was good at seizing the opportunity, seized the opportunity to defeat the enemy with one blow, if Gao Ya fell again in the same position, it would be a fool, since he was a military lieutenant of the Guards, although he had Yin Gong, but his subordinates were not vulnerable.

Gao Ya moved his footsteps, shouted violently, raised his arm, and slashed at Chu Huan with a knife, Chu Huan was silent, and was about to catch up, when he suddenly felt a light in his eyes, which was very dazzling, and immediately retreated two steps back.

At this time, he found that Gao Ya had an advantage, this guy's two hand armor were smooth brass, which could reflect light, and at this time, the sun was shining in the sky, as long as Gao Ya's hand moved, the brass could reflect from time to time, disrupting the opponent's vision.

Gao Ya did this beforehand, just to cause trouble for Chu Huan in the horse race, maybe even he couldn't imagine that at this moment, in the martial arts, his two brass armors also played a role in disrupting the opponent's sight.

Chu Huan took two steps back, Gao Ya was overjoyed, thinking that Chu Huan was afraid, and secretly thought: "Last time, I was attacked by you." Your riding and archery skills are great, but your sword skills may not be great. ”

Just as he was about to continue the attack, Chu Huan had already raised his hand and said, "Wait!" ”

Gao Ya sneered, "What? Don't dare to fight? If you throw in the towel, you don't have to compare. ”

Chu Huan smiled faintly, took off the cloth towel from his waist, just after comparing arrows, Chu Huan tore off his shirt and blindfolded his eyes, and then put his hand on his eyelids, and at this moment he took out this cloth towel again, and blindfolded him in front of the elegant face.

There was a lot of discussion among the people around, and some people only thought that Chu Huan had already thought that after winning two games in a row, they were already self-righteous, and they didn't know that the sky was high and the earth was thick, but no one knew that Chu Huan was blindfolded, just to prevent the reflected light from disturbing his vision.

Gao Ya is in trouble at this time.

Chu Huan did this, did he have to be blindfolded? But once you are blindfolded and your eyes are black, how can you compare them to a knife? Although Gao Ya practiced swordsmanship, he had never had the experience of practicing swords blindfolded, and blindfolded to him was like being blind, and he was afraid that he would not even be able to judge Chu Huan's position clearly when the time came.

He secretly hated that at such a time, Chu Huan still had to put such a problem on himself.

When he was hesitating, Chu Huan had already said lightly: "Captain Gao, please advise!" ”

Gao Ya clenched the knife, but he was thinking in his heart, Chu Huan was blindfolded in public, this kid had obviously practiced blind knives, otherwise it would be impossible to be so ignorant, if he really wanted to be blindfolded, I am afraid that he was really not Chu Huan's opponent.

The emperor has already said, win and promote a level, defeat will be demoted a level, elegant in mind, but also very worried, you must know in the Guards, want to be promoted to a level, it is very difficult, either rely on military merits, or rely on qualifications, now want to rely on military merits to promote there are really not many opportunities, to rely on qualifications, but to survive for several years, they can become a military lieutenant today, to put it bluntly, it is really a test of the father's shadow skills, if a miss defeat, was demoted to a flying lieutenant, and then want to go up, it will take many years.

Thinking of this, he only felt that this battle could not be lost, and when he gritted his teeth, he did not blindfold his eyes, stepped out with his left foot, and the big knife in his hand slashed towards Chu Huan again.

Chu Huan's earlobes moved slightly, the elegant footsteps were heavy, and the knife wind was sharp, which made Chu Huan easily judge the elegant position and the direction of the knife.

He was also not ambiguous, he deceived himself to catch up, the elegant big knife slashed down, Chu Huan's big knife caught up again and again, "choking, choking" three times in a row, two knives struck, sparks splashed, after three knives, Gao Ya actually felt that his tiger mouth was numb, and he was surprised, Chu Huan was not only blindfolded, but also could easily resist his sharp three knives, and the strength on Chu Huan's hand seemed to be far superior to himself.

He was surprised, but he didn't have time to think about it, Chu Huan's knife also fought back without thinking, Chu Huan didn't have any showmanship with the knife this time, and he actually slashed at Gao Ya.

He instantly turned the defense into an attack, and the degree of conversion was naturally far better than Gao Ya, Gao Ya saw Chu Huan's big knife cut down in the air, and he didn't dare to slack off, but he secretly complained in his heart, this kid really practiced blind knives, blindfolded, but he was also so accurate with a knife, in desperation, he waved the knife to resist, and it was "choking" three times, Gao Ya suddenly screamed, and the big knife in his hand had already taken off his hand and flew.

He made three knives before, Chu Huan resisted them all, he felt that the tiger's mouth was a little numb and sour, at this moment Chu Huan slashed back three times, the power of these three knives and the elegant three knives are completely incompatible, Gao Ya felt that after the first knife was blocked, his tiger's mouth hurt, and the second knife came down, his tiger's mouth already had a feeling of tearing, when the third knife came down, he resisted with all his might, but the tiger's mouth burst open suddenly, the pain was really unbearable, the hand was sore, the big knife could no longer be controlled, and he flew away.

When everyone around saw this scene, they all shook their heads secretly.

This competition is obviously not as exciting as the first two games, and the results will be divided in less than ten moves, and the two of them are mediocre in these moves, and there are not too many clever tricks.

However, Chu Huan was blindfolded, and within ten moves, he struck the elegant big sword away, but it was enough to prove that Chu Huan's sword skills were indeed not weak.

Gao Ya took off the big knife, Chu Huan's big knife flashed, the cold blade was already on Gao Ya's neck, it seemed that he already knew that the overall situation had been decided, Chu Huan tore off the cloth towel, looked at Gao Ya, and said lightly: "Accept!" "Got the knife back.
