Chapter 40: Barracks Competition
There was a gorgeous giggle behind him, and Hua An looked back to see that Hua Gui was running towards Hua An with a long sword in both hands.
Hua An took a few steps to meet him, took the sword in his hand and checked it, he felt that it felt good, and the weight was just right for him, the scabbard looked very finely workmanlike, and the hilt and gauntlet were also very heavy, and he gently pulled out the sword, and suddenly a dazzling light shot into Hua An's eyes from the sword surface, the blade was sharp, the sword spine was thick, it was really a good sword, Hua An couldn't put it down for a while.
"Father, mother, this sword is worth at least a thousand gold, and we still have such treasures." Hua An waved his long sword as he spoke, and suddenly there was a crisp and melodious buzzing sound in the air.
"It's a family heirloom, no matter how expensive it is, it won't be sold." Luxurious and rare Yan sΓΉ.
"Since it's a good sword, An'er, you can keep it for self-defense." Needle Niang said with concern.
"I know, such a good sword, An'er is reluctant to sell it, I want to take it across the battlefield and kill the enemy."
After Hua An finished speaking, he looked up at the sky and put on a look of hesitation.
"Daddy doesn't want you to kill the enemy, as long as you are safe." As soon as Needle Niang heard that Hua'an was going to kill the enemy, she was worried about Hua'an's safety.
Hua An shook his head, and looked at it, there was actually a line of small characters on the hilt of the sword in his hand, although it was not easy to recognize the seal, but Hua An still saw that it was the word Qingyu.
It is actually a generation of famous sword Qingyu sword, Hua'an was amazed, according to legend, Cao Cao had two swords during the Three Kingdoms, one 'Yitian', one 'Qingyu', Yitian sword Cao admired himself, Qingyu sword made Xiahou Enpei, and then the battle of Changbanpo, Liu Bei's command killed Xiahouen to win this sword, and this sword disappeared after Zhao Yun's death.
More than a hundred years have passed, but I didn't expect this sword to actually come into my hands, and it is also a family heirloom, Hua An was happy, and couldn't help but wonder: "Dad, this sword is by no means an ordinary person's thing, what is the status of my Hua family's ancestors, and I can actually have this world's famous sword." β
"It's just a sword, maybe it was picked up by the ancestor on the side of the road, and if you think it's a good thing, it's an heirloom, hehehe!"
"Picked it up." Hua An looked at Hua Gui who was smirking suspiciously.
From my father's expression, I couldn't tell that he was deliberately lying, could it be that a pie really fell from the sky, so that the ancestors of the Hua family picked it up, Hua An frowned in disbelief.
"An'er, looking at your father's virtue, the ancestor is also a carpenter, and most of this sword is also picked up, but since it is a good thing, you can keep it and use it, no matter where he came from." The needle lady said with a white and luxurious look.
"What's wrong with the carpenter, didn't the carpenter also marry such a beautiful daughter-in-law as you, and gave birth to such a good son as An'er, hehehe!"
"Hey, you elm pimple, you have also learned to flamboyate your tongue, and you have grown your skills." The needle girl said and twisted up the luxurious ears.
Watching his father and mother fight like a child, Hua An's heart swelled with a warm feeling, as if time had returned to childhood, when Hua An was a child, Hua An's greatest pleasure was to watch his father and mother play around, mix and talk.
"Father, mother, you are busy, An'er won't bother you and leave." Hua An said and turned to leave.
"It's all your fault," Needle Niang slapped Huagui, looked at Hua'an, who had gone away, and said with concern: "An'er, you must take care, Dad and Mother are waiting for you to come back at home." β
"An'er, when you miss your father, come back and take a look." Huagui's voice was a little hoarse.
Hua An turned around and responded: "Father, mother, don't worry, An'er will take care of herself, and you should go back early." β
After Hua An finished speaking, he turned around and strode away, walked about eight hundred steps, looked back at random, in the direction of home, his father and mother were still standing there motionless and looking at themselves, and when they saw that they turned around, they waved to themselves excitedly.
Hua An suddenly felt the urge to cry, he beckoned to his father and mother, turned around and didn't look back.

"Kill, kill, kill."
The sound of soldiers training and killing came from the camp of Han Qian's army.
Because Hua An has often come to Han Qianjun's camp to see his master over the years, the old soldier guarding the gate knows Hua An, and he entered from Yuanmen without any hindrance.
Looking at a group of trained soldiers, Hua An nodded and said to himself: "This year's recruits are in good spirits, as long as they are well trained, they will definitely be a strong force." β
"Yes! The day when my Great Jin will recover the Central Plains is not far off. Han Qian's familiar voice came from behind him.
When Hua An heard this, he hurriedly turned around and bowed down and said, "Master, apprentice Hua An came to report." β
Han Qian nodded, stepped forward to help Hua An, and said: "Hua An, from today on, you will be a soldier of my Great Jin Northern Expeditionary Army, and from then on you will shoulder the heavy responsibility of defending the Great Jin Dynasty and recovering the Central Plains, which is also the mission that every one of our soldiers should have, and the master is optimistic about you." β
After Han Qian finished speaking, he slapped Hua'an on the shoulder a few times.
Hua'an said excitedly: "Master rest assured, Hua'an will keep in mind the mission and live up to the master's expectations." β
"Okay, follow me."
After Han Qian finished speaking, he walked a few steps to the recruits who were training, and with a slight lift of his hand, the hundred soldiers who were training immediately stopped.
Han Qian's gaze swept over the faces of the soldiers one by one, and said loudly: "Soldiers, you are all elite soldiers selected from 10,000 recruits, each of you is one in a hundred warriors, you will be the elite of my Northern Expeditionary Army in the future, and you will also be the elite of my Great Jin Kingdom." β
After Han Qian finished speaking, he pointed to Hua An, and then said: "This one next to Ben Jiang is also a warrior, today, Ben Jiang plans to make him your team leader and lead your hundred warriors, if anyone is not convinced, even if he stands up, as long as he can defeat him, he can replace him." β
After Han Qian finished speaking, he looked sideways at Hua An, his eyes full of expectation.
Hua An bowed slightly, his eyes full of confidence.
"Who is afraid of whom! I'll try. Among the recruits, an extremely burly bearded man stepped forward with a big grin.
"Please give me advice." Hua An bowed politely.
The bearded man glanced at Hua An contemptuously, grinned, and shouted, "Boy, eat me with a punch." "The sound is also coming, and the man who looks clumsy is extremely agile when he punches.
"If this punch goes down, if no one is killed, he will be seriously injured and vomit blood." The surrounding soldiers couldn't help but sweat for Hua'an, and everyone's hearts rose to their throats.
Listening to the sound of "pop", Hua An had already firmly caught the iron fist swung by the bearded man, and the speed was even more strange, and the surrounding soldiers didn't see when Hua An stretched out his hand.
The bearded man wanted to knock down Hua An with one punch, but he didn't expect that he would be caught by Hua An with all his strength, and he was surprised and angry, so he stretched out his other fist and swung it at Hua An again.
Hua An didn't want to slowly consume the strong man in front of him, after all, it was not only the one in front of him who challenged him, he wanted to save his body and meet the challenges of other soldiers.
I saw Hua An bend down and dodge, dodge the punch swung by the bearded man, picked up the bearded man's legs and threw them a few times in the air, and threw him more than a dozen steps away.
The bearded man ate a mouthful of dirt, he slowly got up, "bah" a mouthful of sand, stepped forward and bowed with his fists and said: "Brother, you are still powerful, I am an iron bull." β
"Agreed, Brother Iron Bull." Hua'an returned the salute with a fist.
Han Qian saw Hua'an's excellent expression, nodded with satisfaction, and said loudly: "Who else is not convinced, just come forward to challenge." β
"Get out of the way, I'll come."
"Let me try it too."
After all, they are all warriors in a hundred, although Hua'an has shown good martial arts, but the challenger still keeps jumping out to ask Hua'an for advice.
In the time of a stick of incense, Hua'an has defeated nine soldiers who stepped forward to challenge in a row, and these nine people are the elite of the elite! Although Huaan's strength should not be underestimated, it can't help but be a little struggling.
Huge beads of sweat seeped from Hua An's forehead, dripping down his cheeks and jaws onto the ground, splashing clusters of insignificant dust.
"Next." Hua An shouted. Although I feel a little tired, I am on the rise, so I can't take a break.
"Brother Tai has already defeated nine people, Wang San admires it, and asks Brother Tai to teach him."
Wang San bowed his head and saluted, and after speaking, he swung a fist at Hua'an, Hua'an stretched out his hand and was about to take it, but Wang San suddenly retracted his hand, and then stretched out his right foot to sweep towards Hua'an's lower plate with lightning speed.
"It's a feint." Hua Anxin was surprised.
Han Qian's eyes widened, although he didn't want his apprentice to lose, but he was even more excited to recruit such an excellent soldier.
Hua An took a few steps back with his legs, barely standing firmly.
When Wang San saw that he had hit once, he couldn't help but feel proud, and he wanted to repeat his old trick, so he waved his fist at Hua'an again.
Hua'an suffered a loss, so he naturally took care of it, this time Wang San failed to sweep Hua'an, but it was difficult for Hua'an to get close to the other party, Wang San seemed to deliberately keep a distance from Hua'an, not to let Hua'an get close.
The previous few competitions have consumed too much body, and Wang San in front of him is obviously a strong enemy, if he continues to consume it like this, his body will definitely be exhausted, Hua An hurriedly thought about countermeasures.
The person in front of him was lean and obviously an agile person, but he deliberately kept a distance from himself, indicating that he knew that his strength was not comparable to Hua'an, and as long as he could lock him up close, he could easily defeat him.
Hua An had an idea, and suddenly thought that before he met Han Qian, he was besieged by a group of wolves in the mountains, and the wolves also adopted this kind of containment method, wanting to exhaust his body, if it wasn't for the preemptive attack he took by the wolf's claws, I am afraid that he would have already become a delicacy for hungry wolves.
wolves, use the same methods as wolves to deal with him.
Thinking of a way to break the enemy, a sly smile appeared on the corner of Hua An's mouth.
