The sun sets. There was only a remnant sun left in the sky, illuminating the sky red.

In the evening, the cold breeze was blowing, with a hint of coldness.

Li Zhen and Zhilan sat in the courtyard, hugging each other, the two of them had endless words, and there was a strong reluctance in their words. Yang Banhou stood outside the courtyard, and wanted to take a step into it several times, but without exception, he withdrew his legs and stood outside the courtyard waiting, unable to bear to break this peaceful picture.

He knew that Li Zhen and Zhilan were about to separate, and he felt very uncomfortable.

In fact, Yang Banhou had been back in Shangshu Mansion for two hours, waiting for Li Zhen to meet him. Yang Banhou was afraid that the two old men would be dissatisfied with Li Zhen, so he told the two of them that Li Zhen and Zhilan were going to separate, and asked for the understanding of the two old men. Not only that, but the two old men knew that Zhilan stayed in Beijing as a hostage, and they were quite angry, scolding Xianfeng for not having a heart and feeling worthless for Li Zhen.

People are desperate in front, but they have to worry about the situation of their families, it's not worth it!

If it was Dong Haichuan, he would have been out of the way.

The two elders understood Li Zhen very well, so they waited quietly and were not in a hurry.

In the courtyard, Zhilan leaned on Li Zhen's chest, feeling the steady heartbeat, and her heart was extremely peaceful. She raised her head and said slowly: "Husband, Head Yang has been waiting for a long time, let's get busy." ”

At this time, she was still very uncomfortable in her heart.

She was pregnant, but her husband had to leave, and her mood can be imagined.

Li Zhen hugged Zhilan, shook his head and chuckled, and said: "The rest of the things are temporarily suppressed, I will leave Beijing now, if the war goes well, I should be able to return to Beijing within half a year." If the war doesn't go well, I am afraid it will be difficult to come back without a year or two. When the time comes, I won't even be with you when the child is born, so if you can have a little more time now, just a little more time. ”

When Zhilan heard this, she was even more sad.

He took a deep breath, his gaze became firm, and he said solemnly: "The coming day is long, I believe that the husband will definitely be able to exterminate the bandits before the child is born, and he will definitely be able to rush back." Don't worry, I'll take care of the kids. I'm here, the child must be there. If I'm not there, the child must be there. ”

She reached out and held Li Zhen's hands, clenching them very tightly, with a strong look of reluctance in her eyes.

Li Zhen heard the resoluteness in Zhilan's tone, held Zhilan's hand, looked at him, and said word by word: "You are here, and the child must be there too." ”

When Zhilan heard this, a smile bloomed on her face.

At this moment, the smile was like a flower.

Li Zhen was demented, and there was 110,000 reluctance in his heart. He was really reluctant, he didn't want to be separated from Zhilan, and he didn't want to be separated from his children.

Zhilan smiled and said, "Go ahead, go and deal with your affairs, I believe that parting is for a better reunion." After finishing speaking, she let go of the hand holding Li Zhen, got up and walked towards the house.

Li Zhen didn't stop him, but he had mixed feelings in his heart.

When Zhilan entered the house, he got up and walked out of the courtyard. Li Zhen walked up to Yang Banhou and asked, "Banhou, is there something wrong?" ”

Yang Banhou said: "My father and Uncle Dong are here and want to see the adults. ”

Li Zhen raised his eyebrows, and heard the unusual taste.

Yang Luchan and another person surnamed Dong visited him, what does this mean? If Yang Luchan wants to thank him, only Yang Luchan alone is enough. But one more person is different, what does another person do? He pondered for a moment and asked, "Banhou, who is your Uncle Dong?" ”

Yang Banhou explained: "Uncle Dong is Dong Haichuan, the master of Bagua Boxing, who has made a name for himself. ”

A flash of surprise flashed in Li Zhen's eyes, and he asked, "What is he doing here?" ”

Yang Banhou immediately said: "He and his father came to join the handsome!" ”

When Li Zhen heard this, he laughed and showed a satisfied smile on his face. Yang Banhou hid half of his words when he reported just now, but now he was pried out by Li Zhen, and finally knew the details of the other party and the purpose of coming. Li Zhen knows Yang Luchan and Dong Haichuan. One is a Taijiquan grandmaster, and the other is a Bagua Boxing grandmaster, both of them are under his command, and their hearts are extremely happy.

Li Zhen immediately said: "Let's go, go see the two old men immediately." ”

After finishing speaking, he took Yang Banhou towards the hall.

When Li Zhen came to the outside of the hall, he was stunned when he saw the scene happening in the hall.

In the hall, two old men were actually learning martial arts. These two are the grandmasters of the martial arts world, they have been famous for a long time, and they are the people of the mighty rivers and lakes. Both of them have their own stunts, and now they are competing face-to-face, which makes Li Zhen's eyes shine.

The two martial arts are vividly displayed in front of Li Zhen's eyes.

Yang Luchan's Tai Chi is continuous, one move and one style are free, Tai Chi seems to be a surging river, every move with a sense of lightness, giving people a sense of naturalness. In particular, Yang Luchan's body squatted slightly, and his left and right hands were drawn in a circle, each time he drew a perfect Tai Chi circle, full of viscosity, restrained strength, simple on the surface, but infinite mysterious.

Li Zhen stood still outside the hall, looking intently.

In the eye, I saw Yang Luchan's steady pace, advancing and retreating rapidly, unpredictable.

Although he is in his fifties, he is ape-like and very flexible. In particular, Yang Luchan's one-handed Taijiquan is like the roundness of Taiji.

This kind of kung fu entered the room, which made Li Zhen stunned.

Yang Luchan's kung fu is exquisite, and Dong Haichuan is not far behind.

Li Zhen's eyes looked at Dong Haichuan, and he saw Dong Haichuan stepping on the gossip chain, his palms interlaced and changing, revealing infinite changes. He kept moving around, constantly wandering around Yang Luchan. Especially Dong Haichuan is not running around, every step should deal with the position of the I Ching gossip, as if he is a tiger waiting for an opportunity to move.

Every move he made was a combination of rigidity and softness, and he couldn't prevent it, so that Yang Luchan didn't dare to slack off.

Li Zhen looked energetic, secretly clenched his fists, and his eyes lit up. He has also seen the so-called Tai Chi masters and gossip masters in later generations, and has also fought with the masters among them, but they are all showmanship, and they can only be watched but not played. The two in front of him are already old men in their fifties, but they are different, every move and style are hidden murderous and extremely dangerous.

"Kick! Step on!!! ”

Dong Haichuan rotated back and forth in the hall, the wind under his feet, and every step was extremely steady.

Yang Luchan stood in the center, and Tai Chi coped with it freely.

The two fought hotly, but they were anxious about Yang Banhou, who was standing at the door. Fortunately, Li Zhen watched it with relish, and Yang Banhou felt a little relieved, but he knew that the two old men were indistinguishable from each other, and he was also anxious.

One minute......

Two minutes......

……

Five minutes later, Dong Haichuan and Yang Luchan were still competing.

Both of them are half-hearted, especially the grandmasters of the two fist sects, and their every move is natural and difficult to break. In this comparison, there was no winner for five minutes. The two have fought countless times in the past, and they know the roots, and the competition does not last for half an hour, and they can't stop at all.

"Ahem! Cough!! ”

Yang Banhou was helpless, and coughed lightly.

The voice came out, and it immediately woke up the two old men who were in the competition.

When Yang Luchan and Dong Haichuan heard it, they immediately accepted it. The two of them practiced against each other for a while, and they were already sweating slightly, and their bodies began to heat up. At this point, the two realized that they were so engaged that they forgot about their surroundings.

Yang Luchan looked apologetic, clenched his fists and said, "Old Yang Luchan, I've seen Lord Admiral!" The old man and Brother Dong were too involved in the competition, but I didn't expect the adults to wait outside the door for a long time, please forgive me. ”

Dong Haichuan hugged his fists and said: "Dong Haichuan has seen Lord Admiral!" ”

Li Zhen waved his hand and said, "Please sit down!" ”

As he spoke, Li Zhen took Yang Banhou into the hall.

After the guests sat down, Li Zhen smiled and said, "Elder Yang and Elder Dong have waited for such a long time, it's time for me to say I'm sorry." I already understand the intention of the two of you, I want to ask the two of you, do you have any ideas? If I arrange, the two may not be satisfied, if the two have their own positioning, I think it is feasible after listening, you can arrange it directly, which is much more convenient. ”

As soon as Dong Haichuan heard Li Zhen's words, he immediately had a good impression of Li Zhen.

The people in front of you are approachable in their speech and demeanor!

Yang Luchan had been in contact with Li Zhen and knew Li Zhen's character, so he was not restrained, and said with a smile: "Admiral Li, Brother Dong and I think so. My brother and I are good at martial arts, and our only function is to teach soldiers to practice martial arts. So, I discussed it with my brother and decided to help Admiral Li train the soldiers. ”

When Li Zhen heard this, his brows furrowed slightly.

It's okay to train soldiers, but with 10,000 soldiers in the army, it's impossible to train them.

Yang Luchan asked, "Admiral Li, is there any difficulty?" ”

Dong Haichuan also chuckled in his heart, he had already left the Suwang Mansion, if Li Zhen didn't take him in, there was really nowhere to go. Especially Dong Haichuan has offended many dignitaries, if there is no one to protect him, he is also prone to problems.

Li Zhen shook his head and explained, "Elder Yang, here's the thing. There are only two of you, and it is difficult to train the soldiers in the army. I wondered if I could pick the best of them and give them to the two of you to train. ”

"Yes, yes!"

When Dong Haichuan heard this, he immediately became happy. As Li Zhen said, if they are allowed to train all the soldiers, it will indeed be difficult.

Yang Banhou's eyes flashed with brilliance, and he interjected: "Marshal, it is indeed very difficult to train ordinary soldiers in the army. I think we can select a part of the soldiers from each regiment and give them to my father and Uncle Dong for training. Or, the two old men can train the soldiers of the Sharp Knife Battalion and let the soldiers of the Sharp Knife Battalion practice martial arts in unison. ”

After Li Zhen heard this, he nodded and said, "Elder Yang, Elder Dong, I can't think of any good arrangements for the time being." However, I will definitely not treat the two of you badly, and I will definitely let you carry forward your respective martial arts and be useful. ”

Dong Haichuan smiled and said, "I believe Admiral Li's words. ”

Yang Luchan smiled slightly, believing Li Zhen's words. At the beginning, he gave Yang Banhou to Li Zhen, and now that Yang Banhou is getting ahead, Yang Luchan is also extremely grateful to Li Zhen.

After finishing the matter, Li Zhen changed his words and mentioned that he had switched to martial arts.

With two martial arts masters in front of him, Li Zhen will not let go of such a good opportunity, and he must ask for advice carefully. Li Zhen, Yang Banhou, Dong Haichuan, Yang Luchan, these four people are extremely obsessed with martial arts, and when they discuss it, the atmosphere is even more enthusiastic. Unconsciously, Dong Haichuan and Yang Luchan recognized Li Zhen, and they were happy in their hearts.

Under Li Zhen's command, there are two more old antiques at once.

ps: the second shift; I'm so hungry that I want to die!
