In fact, things are very simple, Liu Xiu just asked Xu Yu: "Have you practiced eyelids?" ”

As soon as he saw Xu Zhen's physique, he knew that the strength of this guy must be amazing, and maybe he had also practiced horizontal kung fu, that is, a golden bell jar, an iron cloth shirt and the like. This kind of kung fu is very mysterious, but it is actually very simple, it is to practice one breath inside, and one muscle and bone skin outside, and the ability to resist blows is amazing. In this era, it is a magical martial art, but in the future, it is a style played by street performers, which looks awesome, but it is actually useless. For a while, hard qigong was even criticized as pseudoscience.

The reason why he lured Xu Yu into the pit step by step with words was because he knew the mystery, just like a PLA soldier splitting bricks with one palm, just to show the leader the excitement, in fact, few people really practiced that kung fu.

This era is different, a martial art, especially a martial art that looks magical, will definitely not be known by too many people. Ordinary people panicked first when they saw that the other party's knife did not hurt the skin, and the sword stabbed did not bleed, who could still think about the flaws.

Besides, if he really started fighting, instead of being caught by him with words first, Xu Yu would not have stood here stupidly and asked him to cut his eyelids with a knife.

The asymmetry of information caused Xu Yu to lose from the beginning. If he knew that Liu Xiu knew more about this martial art than he did, he would not have made a life-and-death covenant with Liu Xiu if he was killed, and he would have a chance of winning.

The shock in Xu Yu's heart at this moment was beyond the imagination of outsiders, of course he understood that Liu Xiu knew where his flaws were from the beginning, and the martial arts he was proud of, Liu Xiu didn't pay attention to it at all, Liu Xiu had been teasing him.

Xu Yu was furious: "Who will send their eyes to your knife?" ”

Liu Xiu glanced at Xu Yu with a short knife while picking his nails, and frowned unhappily: "You want to break your promise?" ”

Xu Yu choked, and then blushed again and retorted: "The eldest husband has said a word, and the horse is difficult to chase." But you won me like this, and I am not convinced. ”

"Not convinced?" Liu Xiu snorted and laughed, and the short knife flew between his fingers, "Have you practiced this stupid kung fu to make people stupid?" Your sword-invincing martial arts, that is, Mengmeng people, can you really fight, can you use a fart? ”

Xu Yu sneered and replied disdainfully.

"Okay, I won't cut your eyelids." Liu Xiu waved his hand, "Where you say to cut, I will cut it, so that you can lose convincingly." ”

Xu Yu's eyes lit up, and he was very dissatisfied with Liu Xiu when he said that the martial skill he was most proud of was stupid kung fu, and he was eager to prove that his martial art was very magical, but he didn't know that if he really wanted to defeat Liu Xiu, he would have a bigger way. He ripped open his shirt, revealing his bulging chest muscles, and smiled proudly: "If you can prick blood here, I will serve you." "You won't break your promise, will you?" Liu Xiu looked at him with distrustful eyes, with an impatient expression.

"Absolutely not." Xu Yu happily squatted on a horse, took a deep breath, and tensed his chest muscles: "Come on." ”

"Alas, I've seen stupid, I've never seen such stupid." Liu Xiu shook his head, sighed, stretched out his hand lightly, and stabbed Xu Yu in the chest with a short knife. Xu Zhen's chest muscles were as hard as a rock, and he really couldn't get in. Xu Yu glanced at Liu Xiu proudly, and was about to take a step back, exhale, and then reason with Liu Xiu, but he might as well slide Liu Xiu's hand, and the short knife slashed lightly on his chest, and suddenly the skin opened and blood burst out.

Xu Yu was dumbfounded, looking at the inch-long wound, completely dumbfounded.

Not only blood, but also ...... There was a lot of blood.

"This ...... This ......" Xu Yu stammered, really not knowing what to say. In the face of this sudden blow, his mind went blank, as if the sky had fallen.

"Do you want to try?" Liu Xiu shook the short knife in his hand, and seeing that Xu Yu didn't react, he unceremoniously slashed him in the chest, followed by another knife, and the knife was bloody.

"Stop!" Xu Yu only reacted at this time, and didn't dare to let Liu Xiu draw again, blocking his bloody chest, he took a few steps back, and looked at Liu Xiu in horror: "I obey, I obey." ”

"Just take it, go wash it, and then come with me." Liu Xiu shook off the blood beads on the short knife, turned around and walked towards the hiding place of Yuan Shu and Xu Yong. Yuan Shu and Xu Yong were also stupid, they didn't expect such a result, watching Liu Xiu stride over, Yuan Shu even forgot to escape, and watched Liu Xiu walk in front of him in a daze.

"I know it's you." Liu Xiuqiang endured the joy in his heart and smiled slightly: "How much did it cost to hire this person?" Thank you. ”

"Thank me for what?" Yuan Shu opened a pair of big eyes, and the second monk was puzzled.

"Thank you for sending me a strong worker." Liu Xiu stretched out his hand and patted Yuan Shu's shoulder: "If you have any strength in the future, you won't have to do it yourself, I'm really grateful." ”

Yuan Shu finally heard the irony in Liu Xiu's words, and suddenly his face was flushed, and he was embarrassed. Although it wasn't the money he spent, it was his idea after all, and he invited the number one warrior from the Huiren House, and the result was ...... gave Liu Xiu a strong man carrying a bag. This thing was done, and it made people laugh to death, and he could almost imagine what Yuan Shao and the swordsmen and rangers around him would have when they heard the news.

Xu Yong ran to the frustrated Xu Yu angrily, wanting to ask him what was going on, but when he saw the vertical and horizontal wounds on Xu Yu's chest, he was also stupid. He pointed at Xu Yu and stammered for a long time before he asked angrily and angrily, "You...... Aren't you invulnerable, how did you become like this? ”

Xu Yu was also confused, but he was not interested in being verbose with Xu Yong, and he didn't wash it, he hastily tied his clothes and followed quickly: "Liu Jun, Liu Jun, you wait for me, I admit to losing the bet, from now on, I will be your person." ”

"This ...... What's going on? Yuan Shu and Xu Yong looked at each other. The result was too unexpected to be in their plans. Of the three killing moves prepared by Yuan Shu, the first one was quite satisfying, but the second result was too weird.

Liu Xiu didn't care what Yuan Shu and Xu Yong thought, he slowed down and waited for Xu Yu to follow. He felt very satisfied with Xu Yu's awe-inspiring eyes, but he felt a little embarrassed. Although he is now considered a 10,000-strong enemy, he is not too sure if he really wants to fight against Xu Yu, at best, it is a half-open chance of winning, but with his understanding of the weaknesses of hard qigong, he easily convinced Xu Yu and accepted this fighter with super combat effectiveness.

Alas, the victory is not martial, ashamed and ashamed.

"Zhong Kang, what conditions do you need for the Ren family to release people?" Liu Xiu asked as he walked.

"There are no conditions, it's just that I didn't complete the task this time, just refund their commission." Xu Yu licked his thick lips: "Liu Jun, you knife...... What kind of magic weapon, why is it so sharp? ”

Liu Xiu smiled: "Are you still not convinced? ”

"No, no, no, I'm convinced, I'm just...... Somewhat curious. Xu Yu shook his head again and again, unable to control his curiosity.

"This knife is indeed a divine weapon, but my victory over you has little to do with it." Liu Xiu smiled, "If you don't believe me, let's go back to the noodle shop later, and I'll find a kitchen knife, which can still make your skin open." If you're afraid I'll be too ruthless, you can find a chance to try it yourself. Just remember not to cut, use to cut. ”

Xu Yu blinked, half-convinced. In fact, he can't be blamed, most of the weapons commonly used by the Han are assassins, although the ring head knife and the sword have the function of chopping, but the ring head knife and the sword have no arc, and the effect of cutting is far more than chopping, and the effect of cutting is not obvious. As for the spear halberd, it is mainly based on thorns, and in the face of Xu Yu's hard skills, it is indeed difficult to cause any damage.

Liu Xiu took Xu Yu back to the noodle restaurant and said to the fake shopkeeper Liu Mochou, this is the new caretaker of our noodle restaurant, and if someone comes to kick the restaurant in the future, he will be in charge. Liu Mochou was relieved, she admired the owner so much, such a strong man came to kick the hall, she thought that this time it would be difficult to escape, she never thought that the owner would take him out and say a few words, and the big tiger became a watchdog.

Liu Mochou smiled a flower on his face, and responded repeatedly, he wanted to take Xu Yu to change clothes, since he wanted to be a nurse, of course he had to wear the uniform of a noodle shop. It's just that Xu Yu's physique is too strong, I'm afraid he has to do it on the spot.

"You can stay at the noodle shop for two days, and if you do a good job, I might consider teaching you something practical." Liu Xiu patted Xu Yu on the shoulder, "If you come to the hard stubble that you can't put on the table, come and tell me immediately." ”

Xu Yu nodded again and again. As soon as Liu Xiu left, he ran into the kitchen, and the masters in the kitchen thought he was here to steal the master, and he was just about to blast him out, but Xu Yu carried them on his shoulders, squeezed them aside, picked up a kitchen knife and cut it on his arm, scaring the masters enough, and he wanted to kill himself for money. Fortunately, Xu Yu just opened his eyes wide, looked at the wound on his arm in a daze, and after a while, he sighed, threw down the knife, drooped his head and went out, sitting on the threshold for a long time without saying a word, until Liu Mochou found a ruler to measure his clothes, he didn't say a word, honestly opened his arms, and let Liu Mochou toss.

Hu Nu Liu Mochou drooled while measuring his waistline, this man is really strong, this waist is so thick that he can barely hold it, and he just sticks it all over his body, so it is logical to take advantage.

Yuan Shu was extremely depressed, returned home dejectedly, and reported the situation to Ma Lun. Ma Lun was also taken aback, and couldn't understand how Liu Xiu could subdue a warrior like Xu Yu. In line with her vigilance against Liu Xiu, Ma Lun felt that Xu Jin's victory was also a little unreliable, so she asked Xu Jin to write another one, asking Yuan Shu to go to Yang Ci to confirm it and see if what Xu Jin wrote was correct.

Yang Ci looked at the stone drum text that Xu Jin's note, his mouth pursed, and he sneered and said, since Xu Shuzhong (Xu Shen) passed away, the Xu family has no successor in terms of ancient texts.

These words frightened Yuan Shu to a moment, Yang Ci is not good at ancient texts, if he can't even look at it, it means that Xu Jin's stone drum text is a big problem. He hurriedly found Xu Jin to ask Yang Ci for advice in person. Yang Ci said, I'm not very sure, but as far as I know, at least one-third of your fifty-seven words are wrong. After Liu Xiu wrote ten stone drum texts in the noodle shop, we studied together every day, and we still had a basic understanding of these ancient texts.

Xu Jin was so ashamed that his face turned the color of pig liver, he still refused to admit defeat, and said, Liu Xiu also recognized it at that time, and he also asked me to record a copy.

Yang Ci shook his head helplessly, didn't say anything, and directly asked his son Yang Biao to send them out the door. Xu Jin was still muttering unconvinced, and Yang Biao was impatient, and said directly to Xu Jin, if you still want to save the face of the Xu family, go to Liu Xiu immediately and redeem the manuscript. Otherwise, I guarantee that it won't be long before the whole of Luoyang City will know your shame.

Although Yuan Shu didn't understand ancient Chinese, his brain in this area turned much faster than Xu Jin, and he immediately asked someone to redeem Xu Jin's handwriting. Soon, he got a reply, Liu Xiu refused to return his manuscript, he was about to ask Bi Lan for help, ready to print a thousand copies, and when the time comes, hundreds of copies will be distributed in Taixue, so that the Taixue students can all learn and study.

As soon as he heard this, Xu Jin's face turned white with fright, Liu Xiu was going to slap the entire Xu family in the face. He hurriedly begged Yuan Shu for help to get the manuscript back anyway. Yuan Shucai refused to lose that face, if he went to beg Liu Xiu, it would be strange if Liu Xiu didn't kill him. Seeing that Yuan Shu refused to help, Xu Jin couldn't take care of it, so he hurriedly went to Sikong Xu Xun. Xu Xun didn't take it seriously, but as soon as Xu Jin said the matter, Xu Xun jumped up all of a sudden, raised his hand to two big-eared scrapers, and scolded.

Who are you messing with, going to mess with Liu Xiu's hedgehog? He impeached Situ Yuan Kui himself, and let Cao Ying remove the Taiwei Chen Tan, do you think he wouldn't dare to provoke me? Bah, that's because he doesn't look down on me at all! It's good that you were used as a knife by Yuan Shu, and you actually dared to provoke him. Don't say that your ancient text is half-material, even if your brother Xu Shuzhong comes out in person, it will not end well if he provokes Liu Xiu. Do you think this is a question of the level of ancient texts?

Xu Jin was so frightened that his face was pale, he could only sob, he was really frightened, if Liu Xiuzhen sent hundreds of manuscripts to Taixue, he would have no place in the Xu family in Runan.

Xu Xun finished scolding, but he still couldn't solve the problem, thinking about it, he had to go to Cai Yong for help with a thick face. He knew that Liu Xiu and Cai Yong were the closest, except for his teacher Lu Zhi, he probably only recognized Cai Yong's face. After receiving a generous gift from the Xu family, Cai Yong found Liu Xiu, okay, the Xu family has softened, don't bully people too much, give me a face, and return the manuscript to me.

Liu Xiu smiled proudly, okay, you Mr. Cai came forward, I can't refute your face. However, let Xu Jin bring me the original manuscript of "Shuowen Jie Zi", I don't ask him for nothing, just borrow me to copy a copy, and the original manuscript will definitely be returned to Zhao when the time comes. In addition, although my manuscript has not yet been printed, the deposit has been paid, did he pay me the money? You can't let me lose, can you?

Xu Jin received Cai Yong's reply, breathed a sigh of relief, did not dare to slack off, and immediately asked people to rush back to Runan Pingyu day and night, and took the fourteen volumes of "Shuowen Jie Zi" written by Xu Shen himself, and handed it to Liu Xiu. As for the money, he didn't dare to make a detailed calculation with Liu Xiu, knowing that he was blackmailed by Liu Xiu, he could only pinch his nose and admit it. not only spit out all the money Liu Xiu gave him, but also paid a lot of money. Liu Xiu laughed, and said to Xu Jin generously, you, aren't you unlucky to be mixed with something like Yuan Shu, it's better to go back to Runan to study with peace of mind.

When Yuan Shu heard this, he was so angry that he almost vomited blood, and he was so angry that he didn't care about asking Ma Lun for a plan, so he immediately resorted to the third move that had been prepared, asking the mayor of Luoyang to check Liu Xiu's taxes and seal his Luofu noodle restaurant.

Yuan Shu sat on the opposite wine shop, and watched viciously as the mayor of Luoyang took the city clerk and a few city guards into the Luofu noodle restaurant, blasted out the customers who were eating noodles inside, patted the table, and loudly scolded the shopkeeper in the noodle restaurant, making those Hu maids tremble. Although the new guard Xu Yu was amazingly powerful, he didn't dare to make a mistake in the face of the people in the government, so he could only immediately send someone to find the owner Liu Xiu.

Seeing the people who moved the rescuers away, Yuan Shu let out a long breath of evil, after all, aren't you just a commoner? If you really want to fight with the government, you are nothing, as long as a little mayor of Luoyang can settle you, I see what else you can do this time. If you can settle the mayor of Luoyang, I still have Henan Yin here, I don't believe I can't settle you today.

Yuan Shu called a pot of wine, a few dishes, and sat opposite Henan Yin Guoxun, who was on standby, tasting wine and waiting.

Liu Xian chatted with Liu Hong in the Tai Chi Dao Hall, and Liu Hong brought him the latest news in the palace. After Bi Lan and Qu Mu got Song Qi's first business, they became emboldened and wrote to the emperor, asking for dozens of school scholars to be transferred to the printing workshop to strengthen their strength. The Son of Heaven was skeptical, for fear that those students would not be willing to do this kind of thing, so they asked them to choose people among the Lang officials who were waiting for their posts, but they didn't expect that as soon as the news came out, there were really many people who were willing to go, and they found enough people in just a few days. These days, the Printing Workshop is working overtime, and the first batch of books has been freshly baked, and the Son of Heaven is very satisfied with the sample books, and is full of confidence in the next business of the Printing Workshop.

"Your method is really good, it not only solves the manpower problem of the printing shop, but also solves the whereabouts of the Lang officials." Liu Hong said with a smile: "The palace is interested in expanding the scale of the printing workshop, and arranging dozens of Lang officials, but unfortunately, no matter how large the printing workshop is, it can't solve tens of thousands of students." He sighed, "Taixue has now become a heart disease of His Majesty, every day when he is idle and has nothing to do, he will discuss the government and politics, and he can't touch it, and he can't do it, and he can't take it seriously. ”

"You can't say that." Liu Xiu disagreed: "These people have read books for so many years, and they have a greater role than illiterate ordinary people, and if they can be used well, it is not a good thing." ”

"A good thing?" Liu Hong laughed: "It seems that you still don't know much about these students, they actually have no interest in learning, what they like the most is to sing unevenly, it doesn't matter if it's right or not, as long as it can be sensational." Only when they are sensational can they appear outstanding and become famous, and as for whether they are reasonable or not, they don't care at all. How did the party come about, isn't it because of this? ”

As soon as he heard him mention the matter of the party, Liu Xiu didn't answer, this matter was too sensitive, and he didn't want to get involved too deeply for the time being.

"By the way, someone has recently avenged the party, you know?"

Liu Xiu frowned, which one of his hearts jumped out without fear of death? I don't know if the party can't mention it these days?
