"They will take care of the drills of the Zhuang people tomorrow, and Yan Rou will be gone." Mao Zong finally said: "This Yan Rou is a famous horse thief, nicknamed Huoyaoyun, he is very famous outside the Saiwai, there are one hundred and ten people under his hands, and his own kung fu is also very strong, whether it is immediately or stepping, he is a first-class master, and he can also gallop left and right." With the ability of my Mao family's nursing home, only Wu Junhou can defeat him, but Wu Junhou was injured back then and can't ride a horse now, so he ......"

Mao Zong looked at Gongsun Zhan with a request in his eyes. Gongsun Zhan narrowed his eyes: "He is the fire burning cloud?" ”

Mao Zong nodded and did not speak. He believed that Gongsun Chan must have heard of this name, but he was worried that Gongsun Chan would be frightened and would not dare to face the battle. Wu Jun Hou is strong in martial arts, and it is definitely not a problem to deal with Yan Rou in foot combat, but he can't ride a horse, and he hasn't been in battle for many years, so I'm afraid he is not Yan Rou's opponent in cavalry combat, so as soon as he heard the news, he proposed to Mao Yan that Gongsun Chan go out to meet him.

"If you can't defeat this Yan Rou, then Lord Thorn Shi will definitely think that we alone will not be able to hold Zhuo County, and will not agree to Brother Bo Jue's suggestion, so I can only pin my hope on the Xianbei people not attacking." Mao Zong said softly: "Several families in Zhuo County are the strongest among the four Mao, and among the four Mao, I am the first in Ximao, so this competition is directly related to the decision of Lord Thorn Shi. ”

"Hmph." Gongsun Zhan snorted with his nose and said with disdain: "I'm afraid that Lord Assassin Shi didn't want to fight with the Xianbei people in the first place, and those big clans in Zhuo County didn't want to offend the Xianbei people, so I just used this incident as an excuse." When two armies are at war, how can one or two people have the final say? What's more, this Yan Rou is just a horse thief, can he represent the Xianbei people? ”

Mao Zong smiled bitterly and did not argue.

"Don't worry, don't dare to say anything else, I'll cover the cavalry, but you have to help me prepare a spear, I'm here to study this time, and I didn't bring a weapon to take advantage of." Gongsun Chan sneered: "Although this is a bit of a joke, but since he is here to burn the clouds, how can I not be this famous horse thief in the desert." ”

Mao Zong was overjoyed, patted his chest and said, "Okay, early tomorrow morning, I will have someone send you a spear." ”

"Tomorrow? I'm afraid it's too late. Gongsun Chan smiled proudly: "The spear I use is different from the spear you usually use, it is an iron spear with two blades, you have to arrange someone to make it for me overnight." ”

Mao Zong was stunned for a moment, and then he was overjoyed. The most commonly used long-range weapon in cavalry warfare is the bow and arrow, and the person who has a hard bow and accurate archery skills is a master, Gongsun Chan uses a hard bow with one and a half stones, five or six out of ten, although it is not the strongest, but it is also passable. Melee weapons have long and short, short with a knife, long with a spear, the power of the long soldier must be strong, but the requirements are also much higher, the knife is easy to use with one hand, and the spear halberd is long, it is not easy to use with one hand, the power is limited, only those who are very skilled in riding can only use the horse with their legs, and the spear in both hands is very rare.

Gongsun Zhan's iron spear that can be bladed with his head shows that he not only has superb riding skills and can control the horse with only his legs, but also has a unique spear technique, otherwise he is afraid that he will already hurt himself before he hurts anyone. With such a skill, even if he encounters a big horse thief like Huoyun, he is quite sure.

Mao Zong's confidence increased greatly, his eyebrows smiled, and he patted Gongsun Zhan's shoulder happily and said: "I only know that Bo Qi is good at riding and shooting, but I didn't expect that there are such strong riding skills and spear skills, so I will need more advice in the future." ”

"I'll talk about it later, you better help me prepare the iron spear as soon as possible." Gongsun Chan smiled and pushed Mao Zong's hand away.

"This is easy to do, there are ready-made spearheads and ready-made iron handles at home, just modify them into two-headed blades. I'll take you to the blacksmith's room, talk to them about your requirements, and let them build it overnight. ”

"That's very good." Gongsun Chan was also relieved. It seems that Ximao is the head of the four mao, and it is not unreasonable, and the strength is really extraordinary.

Gongsun Zhan got up and got dressed, Liu Bei also got up, and the two followed Mao Zong out of the door. Liu Xiu, who had been lying motionless on the bed, heard the footsteps outside gradually disappearing, so he turned over and rolled his eyes in the dark. As Gongsun Chan said, it is undoubtedly a very ridiculous thing to judge whether you should prepare for war by whether you can defeat Yan Rou as a standard. However, his views are somewhat different from Gongsun Zhan, in his opinion, the reason why Mao Zong's family is so energetic is probably to take this opportunity to reshape Ximao's reputation, if he can take the lead to help get this thing done, not only in front of the county order and Taishou, but also in front of Lord Thorn Shi, it is just another plan after inviting Lu Zhi to teach, in the previous life, this is called hype.

Liu Xiu was not interested in following them to participate in these things, he just felt a little familiar with the name Yan Rou, as if he had heard of it somewhere, but he couldn't remember it.

When Gongsun Zhan and they came back, Liu Xiu didn't know, he had been sleeping very well since he arrived in this era, basically he belonged to the kind of people who didn't wake up when he thundered, and most of the time he didn't even dream, but every morning before six o'clock - with the current timekeeping method, it was about two o'clock, and he woke up naturally.

After Liu Xiu got up and washed, he went out according to his habit, moved his body in the peach valley, and then walked towards the mountain road. Although there were dozens of people living in this retreat, there were very few people like him who got up early to exercise, and the valley seemed very quiet, accompanied only by the sound of the rushing water of Peach Creek and the occasional birdsong.

Liu Xiu stretched his body while walking to the place where he usually placed the stones in the valley, preparing to pick up two stones to run as usual, as soon as he turned, he suddenly stopped his steps, his body instinctively tensed, and his eyes narrowed at the same time.

In the middle of the thin mist, a black figure stood motionless on the side of the narrow mountain path by the boulder, like a pillar that appeared out of thin air, as if it had been there in the first place. An inexplicable pressure came to his face, making Liu Xiu couldn't help but hold his breath. Although the man did not move, he felt that he was facing a beast that was ready to pounce, and the next moment he would let out a deafening howl, open his bloody mouth and pounce on him, and he even felt that he smelled a burst of blood, and instinctively wanted to back away from this creepy danger.

But he didn't retreat, I don't know what the reason was, he forcibly controlled his legs, but there was an excitement in his heart, he subconsciously took half a step forward with his left leg, raised his two hands slightly, prepared for it, and shouted in a deep voice: "Who?" ”

"Me." The figure chuckled softly, turned around, and the unsettling feeling vanished.

It's the Marquis of Wujun.

Wu Junhou slowly walked out from behind the boulder and looked at Liu Xiu with a smile on his face, with a hint of surprise in his eyes. He glanced at Liu Xiu, who was still on guard, and couldn't help laughing: "If it weren't for me trying your martial arts foundation, I can't believe that you are a newcomer who has only practiced for a few days." ”

A cold sweat poured out from his back, staining the thin cloth clothes on his body, which was a little uncomfortable. Liu Xiu touched his head embarrassedly, he also felt a little strange, he belonged to the kind of person with a strong heart in his previous life, otherwise he would not have challenged the brick family in the industry without hesitation, but he was definitely not a strong man in terms of physical strength, and he didn't retreat under that pressure just now, which made him a little surprised when he thought about it now. Is it because the physical strength of the Buddha-figure is very strong, so the faith is also very strong?

Curiosity immediately prevailed, though.

"Marquis Wu, was that murderous aura just now?" He asked very gossipy, his eyes lit up, as if the star-chasing fans had seen the idol. Although he was scared half to death just now, he was still excited to feel the legendary murderous aura in person, and he didn't care about running away, so he hurriedly asked this master for advice.

"Murderous?" Wu Junhou blinked his eyes and smiled: "It should be about the same." ”

"Hehe...... Liu Xiu came up with some flattery, "This ...... Can the marquis tell me how this murderous aura was cultivated? ”

"How to practice murderous energy?" Wu Junhou couldn't help laughing, his eyes rolled, and he smiled: "It's very simple, kill people, kill many people." ”
