Chapter 567: Yang Xuangan broke through
Hongfu blushed, spat lightly, and muttered in a low voice, "Who promised to marry you in the future?" ”
Yang Xuangan laughed and didn't speak, Hongfu also knew that he had made up his mind, and it was useless to persuade him, so he said with a straight face: "Be careful tomorrow, don't force yourself." ”
After the two finished speaking, they got up and settled the account, and walked out, when they went out, Yang Xuangan casually glanced at Wang Shichong, and seemed to notice something, but Wang Shichong kept his back to him, calmly eating noodle soup with Shan Xiongxin, Yang Xuangan took a step forward, but shook his head, turned around and strode out of the east.
Wang Shichong quickly finished the last few pieces of noodles, stood up, and said to Shan Xiongxin: "Let's go, I have to meet this Jincheng Tiger first, and I will have a good show tomorrow." ”
The Xue family compound in Jincheng is the largest and most conspicuous building in the city, the tall courtyard wall is made of bricks, and the outside is painted with a layer of gray paint, which is particularly prominent in the low houses made of loess around it, and even the county guard next door is also a lot more disgraced compared to it.
In the middle of the courtyard wall of the Xue family compound are two vermilion lacquer gates, which are covered with copper bright door nails with large bowl mouths, and in the middle are two beast-faced copper door buckles, and the blue plaque directly above the gate reads "Xue Mansion".
At the door are two stone lions with teeth and claws, which look much more fierce than the lions elsewhere, and in front of the door stand four strong men dressed in earthy yellow and yellow scarves, all of whom are bearded with full beards and high noses and deep eyes, and are vigilantly watching the every move of the pedestrians on the busy street in front of them.
The snow has stopped, and today is a sunny day, and the snow on the road has been cleared. A new path has already been blazed out. Pedestrians walk up and down this main road in front of the county watchman's office. But when passing through the Xue Mansion, they always accelerated their pace, and they didn't seem to dare to stay here longer.
Wang Shichong changed into a businessman's dress and stood on the tallest building in Xue's mansion, a three-story platform, which stood in front of the racecourse, which was used by Xue Ju to climb high and look far away when he usually ordered troops to gather generals. Don't look at the door of the Xue Mansion is not too conspicuous, but the interior of the Xue Mansion occupies a huge area, and there is half of the Golden City. And there are thousands of soldiers in the house, and they can assemble as a whole team on this large playground at any time.
Xue Ju was fully armed today, standing beside Wang Shichong, looking at Yang Xuangan and Hongfu who were approaching on the avenue outside the house, and said disdainfully: "Most of the children of the family I have seen are embroidered pillows, I don't believe that this Yang Xuangan can be stronger than my Xue Ju's ability." The so-called Great War Turks, I'm afraid it will be blown out. ”
Wang Shichong smiled slightly: "That's why I will let Brother Xue see it with his own eyes today." ”
Yang Xuangan changed into a blue silk cotton robe today, and his hair was combed high on the top of his head, piled up into a bun. A jade hairpin was inserted, and a good rhinoceros skin jade belt was tied around his waist. A piece of luxury. But the black beard on his face showed the roughness and heroism of the man, and he wore a black iron heavy sword at his waist, which was put in a sharkskin scabbard, and he knew that it was extraordinary at a glance.
Hongfu also changed into a sky-blue cotton jacket accordingly, dressed in men's clothes, and the purple birthmark on his face was very conspicuous, but the whole person still had a noble and elegant temperament in his gestures.
The two came to the door of the Xue Mansion, and the guards at the door glanced at each other, and a person who looked like a leader came over and asked in a deep voice, "Who is coming?" ”
Yang Xuangan didn't even look at the man, his hands were behind his back, and his eyes looked at the door, while the red whisk on the side took out the prepared sticker from his arms, handed it to the guard, and replied: "Li Mochou, the head of the Tang State Mansion, and Zhang Chuchen, the steward of the Tang State Mansion, are here to visit Captain Xue on the orders of my master. ”
The guard glanced Yang Xuangan up and down, and asked, "It turns out that it is from the Tang State Mansion, what are you doing here?" ”
Yang Xuangan "hummed" in his nose, and said coldly: "When I see your master, I will naturally say, don't you lead the way in front?" ”
The guard's voice raised: "This must be Mr. Li, don't you understand the truth of following the customs?" Although Jincheng is small, Xue Mansion has the rules of Xue Mansion, and my master is busy with military affairs, and it is not something that can be seen when you see it. ”
Yang Xuan sighed "oh" and said, "Then what are the rules of your mansion?" How can I meet your owner? ”
The guard smiled "hehe": "Well, it seems that the customer is coming to defect or wants to talk about business!" ”
"Does it make any difference?" Yang Xuangan asked with a smile.
The guard Zhengse said: "Our master has already had rules, this is the compound of a private house, if it is a visit from the imperial court, please move to the county guard next to it, and do official business; If it is an ordinary person who is not a member of the court, and wants to go to the lord to eat, he can go directly to meet inside; If you want to talk about business on this business road, you need to pass the challenge. ”
A sneer flashed on Yang Xuangan's face, and a gleam flashed in his eyes: "We came this time to talk to your master about business cooperation, so we can only meet if we challenge first?" ”
"Exactly! There are too many people who want to come to my master to talk about business, so the master has set such a rule and only talks about cooperation with real heroes. ”
Yang Xuangan looked up to the sky and laughed, and his laughter revealed a domineering spirit: "Li has been traveling south and north for many years, and this kind of rule is the first time I have seen it!" Okay, then let me see the heroes and heroes in this golden city. ”
The guard nodded, said "Wait a minute", and turned to walk towards the house.
After a pillar of incense or so, the door of the mansion was opened, and the guard hurriedly rushed out and bowed his hand to Yang Xuangan: "Manager Li, please, a qiē has been arranged, if you pass the three levels, you can see my master." ”
Yang Xuangan nodded, strode inside, and the guard suddenly said, "Wait." ”
Yang Xuangan stopped and asked, "What's the matter?" ”
"The sword has no eyes, Manager Li had better think clearly before entering, don't blame the little one for not reminding you, there are many heroes who are folded in it."
Yang Xuangan said lightly: "The rules of your mansion, I have also heard about it after I arrived in this golden city, it doesn't matter, if I can't see Captain Xue." It's just that I don't know how to learn the arts. I can't blame others. ”
The guard nodded. made a gesture of inward please.
Yang Xuangan took a deep breath, entered the gate, Hongfu followed him closely, and walked into the first courtyard, only to see a black-skinned strong man with a tiger head tattooed on his chest in the courtyard, who was dancing with a walking lance, and saw Yang Xuangan walking. After a pause, the buzz asked, "You're here to challenge?" ”
Yang Xuangan nodded: "You are the first level?" ”
The black-skinned strong man smiled: "I am General Xue's personal guard, my name is Ma Ning'er, after passing my level, I can go inside, and now you have time to turn back!" ”
Yang Xuangan smiled and strode forward, and Ma Ning'er shouted violently, waving his lance and shaking a spear flower. Directly stabbed Yang Xuangan in the chest, like thunder.
Yang Xuangan knew the number of ways this person just watched him dance a few times. This time he had already expected, as if he had taken root under his feet, he did not dodge, his shot was like the wind, and he grabbed the pole two inches below the head of the lance at once, and as soon as his arm was forced, the lance seemed to be born in his hand, and he could no longer enter half a point.
Ma Ning'er was slightly stunned, and also mustered up her strength, swaying left and right desperately, wanting to withdraw the lance, only to see Yang Xuangan shouting, his right hand straining, "horn" to the ground, the sturdy hardwood spear was actually broken, and Ma Ning'er screamed, raised his head to the sky and fell to the ground.
Yang Xuangan threw his hammer to the ground, and arched his hand coldly at Ma Ning'er: "Agreed." Raising his legs and continuing to walk in, the red whisk followed behind, leaving only Ma Ning'er still sitting on the ground and looking at his broken lance.
Yang Xuangan walked in a courtyard again, and suddenly opened up in front of him, this turned out to be an archery range, a stout man with a fur hat and cotton robe, medium stature, and arms obviously disproportionate to his figure, was carrying a big bow that was one person high, waiting here, seeing Yang Xuangan, he nodded: "Your Excellency's kung fu is good, you can defeat Ning'er so quickly." ”
Yang Xuangan smiled slightly: "Who is that driver?" ”
The man arched his hand and said, "In Xia Chang Zhongxing, he is the deputy general of the Jincheng Captain's Mansion!" Your Excellency should also be a battle-hardened person, you should know that this northwest area, riding and archery is the foundation, although this house is not small, it is not comparable to the grassland can be galloped, today we will compete in this shooting range. ”
Yang Xuangan looked at the big bow in Chang Zhongxing's hand and said with a smile: "General Chang should be a magic arrow stunt, but I don't know how powerful this bow is?" ”
That Chang Zhongxing's unique skill is to ride a horse and shoot arrows, when he heard Yang Xuan ask this, he said complacently: "This bow has three stones and four buckets, ordinary people can't pull it away at all, Chang is not talented, he has learned the way of this bow and arrow since he was a child, and he is quite good at using it." ”
Yang Xuangan smiled: "I wonder if General Chang is willing to cut his love and let me see this bow?" ”
Chang Zhongxing looked at Yang Xuangan, and secretly thought in his heart that although this person is powerful and strong, he may not be able to beat himself in the bow and arrow, you must know that opening a bow and arrows is half strength, half is skill, and he can only pull this bow after years of hard practice, so he generously handed the three-stone and four-bucket strong bow to Yang Xuangan.
Yang Xuangan took the bow and stroked the tight string, the string was thick and tough, it was made of several powerful animal tendons twisted together, and then looked at the bow body, it was made of fine poplar wood, and the tentacles felt a burst of hardness and thickness.
Yang Xuangan smiled, his arms sank, his feet were secretly lucky, his legs were open, his waist was full of energy, he held a bow in his left hand, pulled the string with his right hand, exerted seventy percent of his strength, and roared: "Open!" ”
His face was not red, his breath was not panting, and the strong bow with three stones and four buckets was suddenly pulled by Yang Xuangan like a full moon. As soon as the connoisseur made a move, he knew if there was any, Chang Zhongxing was stunned on the side, and he couldn't speak with his mouth wide open, and Yang Xuangan's wrist was slightly strengthened, and then he added a lot of strength, only to hear the sound of "click", this three-stone and four-bucket strong bow was actually torn into two pieces by Yang Xuangan.
Yang Xuangan shook his head and said to Chang Zhongxing, who was in disbelief on the side: "General Chang, your bow is too soft, it's better to change to a stronger one in the future." ”
Yang Xuangan threw his bow to the ground, threw down Chang Zhongxing, who was alone in a daze, and continued to walk inward.
Yang Xuangan walked inside and entered the courtyard again, and when he raised his eyes, there was an empty and open martial arts training ground, and a full-body martial artist was facing away from the entrance, holding a stone lock one by one.
The stone lock is two hundred catties, but in this person's hand is flying up and down, lifting weight as light, Yang Xuangan saw it, and secretly praised in his heart that this person is really good strength, this kung fu is afraid that it is also a fight with the majestic sea.
The man heard footsteps behind him, seemed slightly surprised, and lowered the stone lock. Turned around.
I saw that this person was about thirty. The face is like a heavy jujube. Thick eyebrows like knives, leopard head ringed eyes, skin everywhere on the face, wearing a bright silver helmet with wings, wearing a beast-faced chain armor, a tiger skin around the waist, and Moyun riding boots, looking at Yang Xuangan. looked up and down carefully, and praised: "Your Excellency is so capable, my two brothers can't stop you." ”
Yang Xuangan smiled slightly: "Who is Your Excellency?" ”
The red-faced man turned around and took a stainless steel halberd more than a foot high, which looked like it weighed a hundred catties, and slammed it on the ground, and said loudly: "I am the deputy captain of Jincheng, and the general of the chariot cavalry, Zong Luohu, I have come to teach Your Excellency how to move!" ”
As soon as Yang Xuangan saw this person's momentum and starting hand, he knew that this person was much stronger than the two just now, so he nodded. He pulled out his Xuantie heavy sword and made a gesture: "I am Li Mochou, the head of the Tang State Mansion." Please also ask General Zong for advice! ”
Zong Luohu suddenly put away the halberd and waved his hand: "I use this halberd, the momentum is heavy, although the heavy sword you use is far heavier than the ordinary long sword, but it is still incomparable with this halberd, as long as it touches it, it will crash away, Zong does not take advantage of others, you better change the weapon." ”
Yang Xuangan said proudly: "As the saying goes, a man should lift a three-foot Qingfeng and build an immortal career!" The sword is the ancestor of a hundred soldiers, and the battle array is also a sharp weapon for hand-to-hand combat, today I and the general are not horse battles, although your halberd is heavy, but it may not be able to win the heavy sword in my hand, when the time comes, which is more important, you will know it at a try. ”
When Zong Luohu saw him say this, he no longer spoke to persuade him, and took a copper whip from the weapon rack on the side, handed it to his left hand, and only held the halberd in his right hand.
I only heard Zong Luohu shouting in a deep voice: "Be careful!" The halberd in his right hand swept over his waist, bringing up a piece of dust on the ground, Yang Xuangan recognized that this move was powerful, if he retreated, the halberd would stab forward, so that it was difficult for him to get closer,
So he gritted his teeth, did not dodge, ran through his arms, held the sword in both hands, stepped forward, and stubbornly swung the halberd with his heavy sword.
"Bang", the firelight splashed everywhere, this hard-hitting battle, brought up the dust in the sky, only to see that in the dust, Yang Xuangan stood still, with a confident smile between the corners of his mouth, but his feet fell into the soil for half an inch, and the Xuantie heavy sword trembled slightly in his hand.
But that Zong Rahu withdrew two big steps, and the halberd shook the sky all of a sudden, and one right hand could barely grasp it, and even the tiger's mouth was shaken like a fire.
Zong Luohu finally abandoned the copper whip, and grabbed the halberd body with his left hand, so he barely controlled the halberd, and the whole person was shaken for a while, and his red face turned purple like a pig's liver.
Zong Luohu was shocked in his heart: he was a thief at the age of fourteen, and he has been crisscrossing the Silk Road for twenty years, except for the situation when he met Xue Ju when he intersected with his horse blade before, this kind of weapon was almost taken off for many years, not to mention that someone who came could swing his hundred-pound halberd hard with an iron sword of less than forty catties, this power is really incredible.
Zong Luohu himself is also a battlefield warrior for the rest of his life, this shot knows that the strength of the coming person is far above himself, even if he meets Xue Ju, he is afraid that it will be more than that, he is by no means this person's opponent, and if he continues to fight, he will only bring humiliation on himself. So he put away the halberd and laughed: "Your Excellency is really born with divine power, Luo Hu is convinced, please inside." ”
Yang Xuangan was also shocked by a burst of blood in his chest just now, after all, he used a sword to hit the halberd, and the weapon suffered too much, just now he also used ninety percent of his strength, since his strength was better than the majestic sea when he was a teenager, he has not used such a great strength in one-on-one competition with others for many years, and secretly praised this Zong Rahu in his heart is really a brave general, and it is not inferior to General Xiaoguo's majestic sea.
Yang Xuangan secretly adjusted his breathing, smiled slightly, and said, "General Zong, I have conceded." ”
So Yang Xuangan returned the sword into the sheath, flicked his placket, and strode towards the exit behind Zong Luohu. Hongfu smiled, nodded slightly at the Zong Rahu, and quickly followed.
This Xue Mansion is built like a military camp, and there are no pavilions, pavilions, dancing pavilions, dance pavilions, and other scenery on the mansions of ordinary large families and princes and nobles, not to mention any scenery such as rockery pools.
Walking around the whole house, except for the wide martial arts training ground, is the archery field and horse ring, from time to time I see some strong men with naked upper bodies, muscular muscles, and dragon pattern beasts carved on their bodies practicing martial arts.
Yang Xuangan walked through the two courtyards again and walked to the main hall, which was open in front of the hall, and the main hall was built like a palace high above.
The steps in front of the main hall are more than 20 steps high, and there are more than 20 halberd-wielding guards with helmets and armor on both sides of the platform, and there are shelves with eighteen kinds of weapons on both sides.
Yang Xuangan knew that Xue Ju was in the hall, so he strode up the steps, looked straight ahead with his eyes, and walked forward.
I saw that the general waved his hand, and the armor soldiers on both sides stepped forward one after another, and the halberd was raised diagonally, crossed upward, and put out a murderous passage.
Yang Xuangan saw a lot of this kind of pomp and circumstance in the history books, his face did not change, his eyes were silent, but his feet did not slow down at all, he straightened his chest and entered the halberd array, he didn't even lower his head, and walked to the first halberd door, the two guards glanced at each other, withdrew the halberd, and nodded to Yang Xuangan.
