~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The duel between Ma Han and Sun Ce is scheduled for three days later. When the news came out, it caused a huge repercussion among Long Wolf, Cao Jun, and Wu Jun.

At this time, it is not only the northern land that is still martial and brave, but also the land of Jingchu in the south, the people are also fierce, especially Wujun and Danyang, and it is also the place where the Jingchu warriors gather and roar. Among the more than 10,000 soldiers and horses led by Sun Ce, there are thousands of "Lujiang Shangjia", that is, Danyang sharp soldiers.

These brave soldiers, who have nothing to do on weekdays, are indispensable for gambling and fighting, and suddenly heard that the general and the little overlord were fighting, and one by one they were stimulated to boil their blood, screaming, each with their own supporters, and opened a gambling fight.

Ma Han ignored the noise of the outside world, but signed a series of orders very quietly, and the herald and the eagle slave were busy these days, and from time to time the eagle could be seen flying from different directions, flapping its wings and flying north.

On this day, the day before the duel, Ma Han received a report from the palace guard, and Cao Pi and Xu Chu asked to see him.

The combination of these two is also strange. Well, since the assassination incident, the defenses of all parties have become tighter, presumably Xu Chu escorted Cao Pi into Shouchun.

"The general must have heard about the secret gambling of the soldiers of each battalion, right?" After Cao Pi visited, the first thing he said was this.

Ma Han smiled: "How much did Zihuan gamble?" ”

Zihuan is Cao Pi's word, it is said that Cao Pi is underage, there should not be a word, but Cao Pi has entered the military camp since he was a child, and fought with his father.

Cao Pi pointed to a palace guard behind him who was holding a long leather bag.

The palace guard looked at him for instructions, and Ma Han nodded.

Thereupon. Cao Pi took the leather bag from the palace guard and opened it, revealing a knife.

"The thing Pi gambled on is this seven-star knife."

Ma Han's eyes froze, he knew that this knife, this was Lu Bu's personal saber, Gao Shun had wanted to exchange twenty military horses but failed.

"What Pi is gambling on is not who will win between the general and Sun Bofu, but whether Xu Zhongkang, who can pull the tail of the ox upside down, can pull the general's divine bow."

Ma Han's eyebrows raised: "Oh." How about losing? How to win? ”

"If I lose, Xu Zhongkang will lead the horse and fall into the stirrups for me; If he wins, this seven-star knife will lose to Zhongkang. ”

Xu Chu clenched his fists heavily: "If Chu wins this knife, he will dedicate it to the general, and thank the general for giving him a bow to confirm his feelings." ”

Ma Han understood that if Xu Chu won, this seven-star knife would belong to him - this is equivalent to offering a knife.

Who is Xu Chu? That's a strange man who can pull the oxtail upside down. The Demon Pupil Bow was not transformed before. It is twelve stones, and with the great strength of Xu Chu, it can be pulled apart; After being converted to a pulley bow, there is no suspense when it is opened. It's a sure-fire gamble.

Speaking of details, there are many people who want to see the magic bow of Ma Han, and there are many people who hope to try to pull it, but few people can do it. Xu Chu had made this request more than once before. All of them refused, and it seems that this time they have invested a lot of money.

Only, will it be that simple? Cao Pi. In other words, will Cao Cao play any tricks?

Ma Han stretched out his hand and rubbed his chin, groaned slightly, and suddenly smiled: "Okay, let Zhongkang give it a try." ”

Cao Pi and Xu Chu both breathed a sigh of relief, revealing their heartfelt joy.

The reason why Cao Pi was sure that Ma Han would agree was because he knew that Lü Bu's old subordinates, such as Zhang Liao, Gao Shun, Cheng Lian, and a group of Bingzhou Iron Cavalry, were all resentful of Lü Bu's relic, the Seven Star Sword, falling into the hands of his father. I always saw Cao Cao wearing this knife, going in and out of Shouchun, and dangling in front of Gao Shun and the soldiers in the trapping camp, which in itself was an irritation and insult to them.

Gao Shun and Lu Buen, the same brothers, saw things and thought about people, especially unbearable, and had proposed several times to exchange the military horses that Cao Jun lacked the most for knives. It was only when Cao Cao's lion opened his mouth and he couldn't talk about it for a while, so the matter dragged on.

Cao Pi believed that Ma Han would be happy to get this knife to buy people's hearts, which made Lu Bu's old department even more desperate.

I have to say that Cao Pi has a very accurate grasp of Ma Han's thoughts. The so-called treasure knife, in the eyes of Ma Han, is no different from broken copper and iron, however, this knife has its special value and political significance, since someone sent it to the door, you might as well laugh at it.

Ma Han vaguely guessed what Cao Pi and Xu Chu wanted to do, most of them were the idea of beating his own magic pupil bow, he could have refused, but after thinking about it, he still agreed. There is no other reason, these two people in front of themselves, no matter how they play, they are still a conspiracy, if they refuse, then I don't know what kind of conspiracy Lao Cao and they will play. Instead of being on the lookout all the time, let the other person perform it and see what tricks can be played.

Ma Han beckoned to his attendant Asu: "Take my bow." ”

Asu stared at Cao Pi and Xu Chu, the corners of his mouth rose, turned away, and after a while, he took the leather bag containing the demon pupil bow.

When the Demon Pupil Bow was fully displayed in front of the two, with Cao Pi's family history, Xu Chu's well-informed eyes were all dumbfounded. Needless to say, the blood wheel that resembles the Devil's Eye, with shiny pulleys at the upper and lower ends, protruding string guards, and three twisted gold strings...... A qiē is so different from an ordinary bow and crossbow.

This is the legendary divine bow of the Hu people? This is the magic bow that Cao Ren and Shi Jian repeatedly reminded Cao Ying's generals to be careful? This is the super strong bow under the city of Xiapi, which was unbound by the evil god Lu Bu and caused heavy casualties in Cao Ying?

Cao Pi secretly swallowed a mouthful of saliva, his palms were sweaty, and he resisted the urge to draw a knife and slash.

Xu Chu rubbed his hands together, his eyes lit up, and strode forward, his big furry hand just put on the bow handle, and was suddenly pressed by a strong palm: "You may not be able to open this bow, I tell you how to pull it." ”

Ma Han hooked one of the strings with his fingers, slowly pulled it open, and then put it back back after it was full, and the whole process was easy. In Xu Chu's eyes, he was a little more confident in his next actions.

After the demonstration, Ma Han handed the bow to Xu Chu, and after Xu Chu took it, Ma Han reached out and patted the back of his thick shoulder: "Say it again, you can only hook one string, if you deliberately hook three strings, I will kill you, and this second son of Cao, put the heads of the two of you in the box and hand them to Cao Mengde - this is not intimidation, I can say it, I can do it." ”

Ma Han said very calmly, as if he was only explaining Xu Chu's precautions, but at that moment, he released a murderous aura that pierced his muscles, which made Cao Pi's back a layer of white sweat on a hot day. Even if Xu Chu was strong, his whole body was stiff.

"Very well, let's get started." Ma Han slowly stepped back and sat back in his place, a playful smile on his face.

Xu Chu and Cao Pi glanced at each other, nodded imperceptibly, took a deep breath, and the muscles of his body rose up, like a grave like a mound, he raised the magic pupil bow obliquely, hooked the string with one hand, and turned his head to Ma Hao and smiled: "General, it's ugly." ”

As soon as the words fell, the arms were parted, and the bowstring was instantly full.

The strength of the seven-stone bow is equivalent to about 400 catties now, and with the strength of Xu Chu's two arms, he struggled to be angry, and it can indeed be instantaneous.

At this time, the bow is like a full moon, and it opens normally to this point, even if it is extreme, if you pull it again, it will hurt the bow - looking at Xu Chu again, he didn't mean to stop at all, but continued to exert his strength......

What do Cao Pi and Xu Chu want to do, the answer is about to come out. Even Aso could see it, but in an instant, it was too late to drink.

Ma Han sat for a long time, sneering, this trick he had played when he was under Gongsun Zhan's tent. Cao Pi and Xu Chu's actions are just the rest of his play. However, I have to say that this is indeed a much more clever conspiracy than a conspiracy. If you try the bow and pull it off or damage it with great force, it is at most an unintentional mistake if you use too much force. Brother's strength is so great, it's amazing to beat him up, you can't kill anyone, right? If you want to blame it, blame your divine bow too face - can Ma Han admit that his divine bow is too faceless to the soldiers of the three armies?

Of course not! Therefore, Cao Pi's strategy is very likely to succeed.

At this moment, time seems to freeze.

The pupil bow creaked at full capacity.

Xu Chu gritted his teeth, his eyes bulged angrily, the green tendons on his forehead burst out, and he picked up the earthworm on the back of his hand, trying his best.

Cao Pi snickered, Asu was angry, and Ma Han ...... Ma Han only narrowed his eyes, his expression was calm, he didn't look in a hurry, but seemed to be enjoying a good show.

The next moment, an amazing scene appeared!

It wasn't that Xu Chu pulled the Demon Pupil Bow, but that his right arm suddenly cracked open, and a large amount of blood gushed out, shooting out like a fountain. It was as if someone had stabbed you in the back.

Xu Chu shouted, the magic pupil fell to the ground, his left hand pressed his back, his right arm drooped softly, and half of his body was instantly dyed red.

This flip is too incredible, too scary. Everyone, including the palace guards and general guards who rushed in when they heard the sound, were dumbfounded.

Ma Han's unhurried voice came: "This bow is called 'magic bow' by the Xianbei people and the Karasuma people. ”

Cao Pi and Xu Chu all felt cold and swishing on their backs, and they didn't dare to take another look at the "magic bow", and they repeatedly complained to Ma Humton and wanted to retreat. Xu Chu was so painful that he couldn't speak, and his feet were dripping with blood, which was shocking.

"It's really 'ugly'." Ma Han lazily leaned on the back of the general's chair, stretched out his index finger and nodded at Cao Pi, "The knife stays, and the person leaves." ”

Although Xu Chu was "strained", he pulled it away after all, so he could be regarded as winning the bet.

Cao Pi stopped, turned around, and raised his knife in both hands over the top.

Asu strode forward, still maintaining the posture of raising the corners of his mouth, first picked up the demon pupil bow, and then walked in front of Cao Pi, snorted heavily in his nostrils, snatched the knife as if grabbing it, and sneered: "Therefore, according to the old legend, the Kun Botulu magic bow, with a spell, and those who have evil intentions will be punished by God." ”

Cao and Xu were covered in cold sweat, but they only chattered and retreated in a hurry.

But as soon as the two of them walked down the cloud steps, Xu Chu fell to the ground and fainted due to excessive blood loss.

Ma Han raised his hand: "Let the military doctor stop the bleeding and bandage him, carry him back to Cao Ying, don't die in my Shouchun Palace." ”

Asu turned around and respectfully presented the Demon Pupil Bow and the Seven-Star Sword, full of awe: "Kun Botulu, the Divine Bow is psychic, and he deserves to be damned." ”

Ma Han raised his right palm, as if admiring the slender fingers, his eyes were indescribable, and he said lightly: "Yes, this is the ...... of heaven" (to be continued......
