Chapter Forty-Eight: A Flash of Cold Light (4,000 words)
On the second day, Zhu Zhenguo woke up at three o'clock in the morning, and he felt a little nauseous in his throat just after getting out of bed, Yun Xiaolian, who had already woken up, blushed and served some gruel steamed buns, and Zhu Zhenguo came out of the room comfortably. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Where can Zhu Wenguang and Zhu Wenyuan let go of this nephew, pulling and asking, Zhu Zhenguo originally retold yesterday's events, the two brothers were surprised and delighted, this nephew really did not disappoint once since he was a child, and asked Zhu Zhenguo to transcribe the four palindrome poems of the four seasons, and the two went out with the paper.
These two brothers have a lot of friends in this county town, and the circle is okay, but it is not the top, it can only be regarded as a medium circle, and the top circle cannot enter without a way. Zhu Zhenguo said that he was also stained with Ouyang Wenfeng's light, and the starting point of coming to this county town was different.
Zhu Zhenguo had a hangover last night, and he was really a little sluggish today, and he didn't want to go out, even if he didn't want to go out, he just studied martial arts hastily, and sat on his desk and slowly read miscellaneous books and travelogues.
In the afternoon, Ouyang Wenfeng hurriedly came to the Zhu Mansion with interest, and the black and yellow "boy" named Ouyang Shimeng was still followed by him.
"Brother Wenfeng, my brother was really drunk yesterday, and his head still hurts until now, was my brother okay yesterday?" Zhu Zhenguo asked first.
"Hey, hey. Zhenguo, it's just the first time you've drunk too much, my brother is used to it, and I'm drunk, but it's fine. I'm going to take a look at this with you today. Ouyang Wenfeng took out a booklet in his hand.
Zhu Zhenguo took the booklet easily, today's booklet is different from more than a month ago, whether it is from the binding, paper, printing ink is more advanced, the overall grade is a lot more exquisite, as soon as you open the first page is your own palindrome poem.
Ouyang Wenfeng didn't wait for Zhu Zhenguo to look at it more and said directly: "Zhenguo is really famous this time, I'm afraid this booklet will spread all over Dajiang County in a short time, and Zhenguo will become famous." ”
"What kind of fame can my brother make, this book is full of masterpieces of people and scholars, and this is nothing compared to my brother." Zhu Zhenguo is not modest, and he also knows that he wants to be famous, but when it comes to the level of poetry, these adults have better skills and words, although his level is also extraordinary, but he still has some numbers in his heart.
This also indirectly reveals that Zhu Zhenguo is still a little empty in his heart, after all, it is plagiarism, and he is not so confident.
"Zhenguo is modest, but if he is more modest, he will not need to be too modest in the future, so as not to be looked down upon, just to appear arrogant." Ouyang Wenfeng is teaching Zhu Zhenguo what he said, in the current words, he should pretend to be forced or pretended, and he can't let people look down on him, where will the literati not be arrogant.
"Brother Wen Feng is right, but the younger brother himself showed his timidity." Zhu Zhenguo also knew that Ouyang Wenfeng was right.
"Are you going out today?" Ouyang Wenfeng still couldn't bear the young man's active temperament.
"I had a hangover last night, and I was listless today, so I won't go out, and I'll make an appointment tomorrow. Why don't you play with a knife and gun with me today? "Asking Ouyang Wenfeng to play with knives and guns is just for play, is it really Zhu Zhenguo who is not in a good state today, and he doesn't want to go out.
"Okay, gentleman's courage and martial arts are the style of the ancients, and I will learn from this style of the ancients today." After some play, Ouyang Wenfeng said that it was a great gift.
On the side, Ouyang Shimeng was also a little excited, since he was a child, he really hadn't seen anyone who really brushed martial arts. But he remembered something again, and hurriedly reminded his brother: "Brother, you have to play but forget about the big thing." ”
"Yes, yes, there is one more thing that I forgot to say when I was happy, that is, my father will take turns in the yamen the day after tomorrow, and today I will invite you to go to my house as a guest the night after tomorrow." Ouyang Wenfeng patted his forehead and said.
"Brother is kind, my brother will definitely go to the appointment the day after tomorrow, but I don't know what Lord Ouyang likes, and my brother can prepare some small gifts." Zhu Zhenguo knew that he was going to visit and go to the appointment, but he wanted to prepare some gifts.
Ouyang Wenfeng's face turned red when he heard this, and the first thing he thought about was not what his father liked, but was reminded, as if he had never brought any gifts to this Zhu Mansion, but he was a little inconsiderate, and he pressed this matter in his heart, thinking about preparing some when he came back in the future. He replied, "My father doesn't have any preferences, but if you want to talk about preferences, I don't know if reading counts?" ”
This is difficult for Zhu Zhenguo, he likes to read, what does this make him send, send books, I am afraid that there is no one in the entire Dajiang County who has more books in Ouyang Mansion, and I think about it in my heart, there is still nothing to give.
Ouyang Wenfeng saw Zhu Zhenguo's embarrassed expression, so he smiled and said, "Otherwise, I won't give any gifts, anyway, I didn't bring any gifts to your house." ”
Ouyang Wenfeng really has this intention when he says this, he thinks that I don't bring gifts when I come to your house, and you don't bring gifts when you come to my house, so that you don't seem rude, and the things you thought about just now have been revealed, and you won't seem so inconsiderate.
It's just that Ouyang Wenfeng thought that this society is a hierarchical society, and it is normal for people in the upper position not to give gifts to the people below, but it would be disrespectful for the people in the lower position to visit the people in the upper position without gifts.
Zhu Zhenguo didn't think much about it, anyway, there were still two days, and if he couldn't think of it, he could consult the two uncles, so he wouldn't be entangled anymore. Summoned a few companions, moved some chairs and stools from the wing room to the courtyard, Zhu Zhenguo, Ouyang Wenfeng, and Ouyang Shimeng sat down, and the other four teenagers stood aside, although the small ones were only twelve or thirteen, and the big ones were only thirteen or fourteen, but they had been boiling their bodies since they were children, and they were rich in nutrition.
Zhu Zhenguo said: "Brother Wenfeng, Sister Shimeng, let my brother dance for the first time for you to see." ”
Zhu Zhenguo's words seemed to have caused Ouyang Shimeng's unhappiness, but I don't know if he was really unhappy in his heart, this black and yellow boy Ouyang Shimeng said straightly: "Phew, who is your sister, if you want to dance, dance faster." ”
Zhu Zhenguo smiled when he heard this, and said to Zhu Shouxing: "Shouxing, you first dance a long knife and take a look at Miss Ouyang." ”
I wish the first line to make a promise, and walked into the courtyard in two steps, the long knife on his waist has been unsheathed with a bang, the knife is pulled, and the knife posture is also decent.
The so-called master leads the door, and the practice is personal, although several young masters have a door in martial arts skills, but the style of personal formation is very different, and the difference in knife posture is also different.
The style of this first line of the sword is decent, balanced in advance and retreat, and it does not seem to have much momentum when dancing. However, Zhu Shouxing has a martial art that is the best in this one, that is, an accurate archery skill, but it is inconvenient to display it in this small courtyard.
I wish the first line of the drill is completed, and the forehead is also dissatisfied with fine sweat, it can be seen that although it is a drill, it is obvious that the force is also full and not fake.
Ouyang Wenfeng couldn't see the reason, but he also felt lively, and he applauded. It's Zhu Wencai's turn again, Wencai's knife skills are excellent, but he takes a light and agile path, flipping and misappropriating the most, like fighting with people, not attacking you head-on, looking for your flaws and attacking.
Obviously, Ouyang Wenfeng seems to understand Zhu Wencai's knife technique a little, and the force of clapping is much greater, mainly because this flip and move is really much better than taking the rules.
It's Yun Shuhuan's turn again, as soon as the blade comes out, Yun Shuhuan's eyes become a lot sharper, and his movements are even more unusual than ordinary people.
A layman who doesn't understand may think that he is not practicing martial arts well, or that his pace is not steady, but if an insider looks at it, he will know that this Yun Shuhuan is taking a dangerous step, and the knife is going sideways. Unstoppable, relying only on the ultimate control of the body to risk avoiding the enemy's attacks, only to avoid head-on, a fatal knife. This way is not something that ordinary people dare to play like this, it really stems from the confidence in their own bodies and martial arts. It is also an alternative style formed by years of competition with others.
Ouyang Wenfeng saw that Yun Shuhuan's body was not in shape, but he lacked interest, and thought in his heart that this Yun Shuhuan might be because he usually followed Zhu Zhenguo before and after the saddle, and his martial arts were not practiced diligently.
It's the turn of this big iron bull, the body is much wider than the other teenagers, and the person is half a head taller, the fourteen-year-old boy is about one meter seven, if it is compared to Ouyang Wenfeng, who is also fourteen years old, it is almost worth two. Even the sword's knife is much longer than that of other teenagers, and the back of the knife is much thicker.
Ouyang Wenfeng saw the iron bull entering, but cheered up, the appearance of this big iron bull was in line with the fantasy of the martial artist in his heart, tall and big, with a tiger's back and a bear's waist, and a sense of strength was revealed all over his body.
The iron bull knife was too long, like a few teenagers at the waist and couldn't pull it out with one hand, so as soon as it came up, the iron bull took the long knife from the waist first, holding the handle of the knife in one hand, holding the scabbard in the other, and the scabbard flew to the ground on the side.
The iron bull is full of foreplay, his feet are smashed down to the ground continuously, his body is stable, he holds the handle of the knife with both hands and twists it twice, the tiger stares, and roars, the long knife slashes straight down from the top of his head, and the sound of breaking the air is extremely fast, and the momentum of the long knife is not closed, and the blade directly smashes on the bluestone slab, and the stone foam flies horizontally, and at a glance, the bluestone slab has cracked a few pieces.
When Ouyang Wenfeng was still looking at the bluestone slab, the iron bull knife swung down in the air, and another bluestone slab had been shattered. There was no pause in the middle of the two slashes, and the knife speed was fast. This iron bull is the way to open and close at a glance, one force down ten times, the perfect combination of speed and strength, not many skills, but it is tempered and rampaged, compared to the previous few is the most suitable martial arts for fighting in the army.
Seeing this, Zhu Zhenguo hurriedly shouted: "Stay with the bull, a good paving slate will destroy two pieces in the blink of an eye, and the uncle will ask you to suffer a sin when he comes back." ”
Tie Niu also stopped obediently, and when he came back from collecting the knife, he looked at the blade as soon as he came back, and when he saw that the blade was not curled or bent, he said with a smile: "Young master, these more than seventy taels of silver are worth spent, it is really a good knife." Ha ha... ”
Zhu Zhenguo didn't answer and said: "This slate is wronged. ”
The bluestone slabs laid in the courtyard are polished by stonemasons outside the city and transported into the city with ox carts, each piece is basically the same size, weighing 100 catties, specially for the rich houses in the city to pave the ground and pave the road, and a piece also costs dozens of copper coins.
The lethality of this Zhu Tie Niu is intuitive, a big bluestone slab is shattered with a knife, not to mention a person, but Ouyang Wenfeng didn't dare to imagine it, and the clapping in his hands was even harder, and his mouth was also applauding.
This Ouyang Shimeng was also shocked this time, several people danced knives at the air before, but this big stupid cow directly gave a terrifying result, and remembered Zhu Zhenguo, and said in his mouth: "This big stupid cow is very brave, but I heard the big stupid cow praise someone for his unparalleled martial arts, I don't know if it is in vain." ”
Of course, this person is referring to Zhu Zhenguo, Ouyang Shimeng said this, and mainly felt that although Zhu Zhenguo's body was also strong, it was not as good as the Iron Bull, no matter how powerful it was, it was not as powerful as the Iron Bull.
Zhu Zhenguo smiled and said, "Hehe... Then let Miss Ouyang see the power of a certain family. ”
"A certain family" is also used by self-proclaimed literati, but it is rarely used, and the main use is martial arts figures, but it is also a humble title. Zhu Zhenguo's self-proclaimed claim shows some of the habits of the martial artists in the rivers and lakes.
Ouyang Shimeng is actually looking forward to it in his heart, hoping that Zhu Zhenguo can truly show more powerful martial arts than Zhu Tieniu, and even more hope that the image of both civil and military in his heart will not be shattered, although he speaks in a radical way, it does not mean that he really wants to see Zhu Zhenguo make a fool. Listening to Zhu Zhenguo's words, I was even more nervous in my heart, not so much nervous about whether Zhu Zhenguo was powerful, but even more nervous about whether the image in my heart would be discounted.
"Shuhuan, go and take out the bamboo mat under my bed." Zhu Zhenguo commanded.
Everyone looked at each other, this time they wanted to perform martial arts, but Zhu Zhenguo asked people to take bamboo mats, where to put bamboo mats in this season, most of them were placed under the quilt to prevent moisture. Yun Shuhuan didn't ask much, entered the wing, went to the bedside, picked up the quilt, took out the bamboo mat and ran out again.
Zhu Zhenguo didn't explain, took the bamboo mat and rolled it up, rolled the mat into a tight roll, and then stood in the field.
Calming down his breath, Zhu Zhenguo suddenly shouted, only to see a flash of cold light, the bamboo mat was directly cut off, the upper section had already flown into the air, the knife shadow passed again, and the bamboo mat that flew into the air was divided into two and fell to the ground, and at the same time Zhu Zhenguo had already put the knife into the sheath.
The Ouyang brothers and sisters were stunned, and they blinked their eyes twice as if they hadn't seen clearly, this speed was really too fast, it was completely a knife shadow flashing twice, and the bamboo mat rolled into one had been divided into three sections. This bamboo swept into a ball is no different from this tree trunk, and it is so easy to turn into three knots, which is really beyond the power of man.
However, Tie Niu was used to seeing the power of his young master, although he played new tricks, but he was not surprised, and after seeing the three bamboo mat gaps smooth and smooth, he was more impressed in his heart, and Tie Niu said: "The young master's knife technique has grown a lot. ”
Zhu Zhenguo said with a smug look on his face when he heard this: "I need you stupid cow to praise my martial arts." ”
He smiled as he spoke, Tie Niu also smiled, and he also felt that he had lost his words, this "growth" is usually praised by the elders for the younger generations, but today he used it to praise the young master.
