Nan Ye and Huang Yueying's abnormality was naturally seen by Huang Chengyan and Hua Tuo. The two old and disrespectful fellows just looked at each other and smiled, and neither of them bothered the private communication of a young man and woman. A surgical saint and a Mo family juzi get together all day long to play chess and cards for fun, and wait and see how things develop.

Liao Hua has been depressed these days, Nan Ye is accompanied by Huang Yueying, Hua Tuo is accompanied by Huang Chengyan, and even Huang Li has his parents by his side to take care of him, leaving Liao Hua with nothing to do all day long, so he can only go to the open space in front of the village to practice martial arts.

Huangjiawan is not a big place, there are dozens of families living in total, and no one in the neighborhood knows anyone! Soon, the local people discovered the outlier of Liao Hua, and they all knew that Huang Chengyan's family had three guests, and one of them was still performing in the open space in the village every day. So the children in the village always squatted in groups in the shade under the tree to watch Liao Hua practice martial arts, and the people in the village also came to watch when they were fine.

The depressed Liao Hua didn't want to practice anymore, but he had nothing to do except practice martial arts, so he could only continue to sell his art for free to the people in the village. Gradually, Liao Hua also discovered the benefits of performing arts, and when he was resting, there were always people who came forward to bring him water to chat, and there were strong men in the village who came to him from time to time to compete, which made Liao Hua's life no longer so boring and difficult.

If Liao Hua's martial arts are not outstanding under Nan Ye's command, there is really no opponent in this small place of Huangjiawan. Soon, the young and strong men in the village convinced Liao Huaquan, and there were still people who wanted to worship Liao Hua as a teacher. Liao Hua didn't even dare to reveal his real name and origin in front of these villagers, so how could he dare to accept apprentices? Naturally, they all refuse.

A few men in the village who wanted to apprentice did not give up, so they practiced martial arts with Liao Hua every day. Clearly, that means "don't you take disciples?" Then we can practice how you practice, you don't care!

Liao Hua really couldn't manage it, so he taught himself by a few men behind him, occasionally gave a few words, and when he was bored, he asked a few men to come up and practice with him. A few men did not apprentice but learned the skills naturally happy, and they practiced more energetically with Liao Hua, and now there were more people who came to watch, and it was obvious that the fight was better than the single practice.

On this day, Liao Hua was practicing martial arts in the village, and four people came on the path in front of the village. These four people, two old and two young, the two old men are loose-shaped crane bones, and their instruments are extraordinary. The two young men are also heroic and extraordinary, and their temperament is somewhat similar to Nan Ye, they have both the demeanor of a literati and the spirit of a martial artist between their gestures, but they lack the momentum of a superior person on Nan Ye.

When the four of them came to the entrance of the village, they saw Liao Hua practicing martial arts in the open space in the village and a circle of onlookers. These four people live in seclusion in the mountain villa on weekdays, and there is nothing lively to see, and at this time, they are all bright when they see someone performing here. One of the old men said to the other: "I don't want to be lively here, can I wait and take a look?" ”

The other old man didn't say much, only said two words: "Good! Good! ”

The two young men were naturally overjoyed to see the excitement of the two gentlemen, and they also squeezed into the crowd behind the two old men. The onlookers obviously knew the two old men, and hurriedly gave up a place, and the people greeted them warmly: "Mr. Shuijing is here!" "Hello Mr. Ziyu!" It turned out that the two old men were Mr. Shuijing, Sima Hui, and Pang Degong, who lived in seclusion in Lumen Mountain. These two are friends with Huang Chengyan and often visit them, so they are naturally well known to the people of Huangjiawan.

Pang Degong pointed his finger at Liao Hua and asked the people around him: "Who is this martial arts practitioner?" Why don't you go to the city to perform? ”

As soon as the people heard that the well-informed Pang Degong also regarded this person as an artist, they all smiled. An old man replied: "This person is a guest of the Huang Gong's Mansion, claiming to be Yuan Jian, and he came with two other guests. Those two didn't seem to be martial arts practitioners, so he was the only one here to practice martial arts. ”

Pang Degong understood as soon as he heard it, the three guests were two literates and one martial arts, presumably Huang Chengyan and the two scribes could talk, this warrior felt bored and practiced martial arts alone here, not a showman. After figuring it out, Pang Degong said to Sima Hui: "I said why I didn't see Brother Chengyan for a few days, it turned out that there was a guest at home." Shall I go or stay? ”

Sima Hui glanced at Liao Hua, who was practicing martial arts, nodded, then glanced at the two young people behind him, and then gave Minister Pang De a look and said, "Okay!" Good! ”

Pang Degong and Sima Hui have been friends for many years, and they know what they mean, and said with a smile: "You good gentleman, can't you say a few more words?" I asked you whether you were going or staying, what did you mean by saying yes? Yuan Zhi, Guangyuan, do you two know what Mr. Shui Jing means? ”

The two young people are Xu Shu, Xu Yuanzhi and Shi Tao and Shi Guangyuan. The two of them worshiped under Pang Degong and Sima Hui to learn art, and when they heard the teacher ask, they knew that they were testing themselves, and they all fell into contemplation.

After thinking for a while, Xu Shu and Shi Tao's eyes lit up. Shi Tao said first: "Mr. means to go or stay." ”

Pang Degong nodded and asked Xu Shu, "What do you say?" ”

Xu Shu said: "I guess what Mr. means is that this person is good at martial arts, and it is better for people who travel with him to be treated by Huang Gong for many days." I should stay and pay a visit, so as not to miss out on the talents. ”

Hearing this, Sima Hui nodded and smiled: "What Yuan Zhi said is exactly what I wanted. The person in front of you is outstanding in martial arts, and the two of you also practice martial arts, so you can come forward to learn and make friends. ”

Xu Shu and Shi Tao had already had some itchy hands when they saw Liao Hua practicing martial arts, and they would be polite when they got the teacher's instructions at this time. Walking into the circle together and arching his hand at the same time, Shi Tao said: "This strong man is excellent in martial arts, the two of us don't feel itchy skills after watching it for a long time, can you ask the strong man for advice?" ”

Liao Hua has been practicing martial arts here for many days, and there are many strong men in the village who come to him for training, but it is the first time that a person dressed as a scribe with a sword hanging from his waist has come to him for a discussion. Recently, Liao Hua has subdued all the young people in the village, and there is no opponent, how can someone not like it at this time? He looked at the two people in front of him carefully, and found that they were not from the village, and asked politely, "I don't know what the two brothers are called?" ”

Shi Tao said bluntly: "My name is Shi Tao, and my name is Guangyuan. ”

Xu Shu hesitated for a moment and said: "I am blessed, and I have only listened to the old words of the villagers that the surname of the strong man is Yuan, I don't know if it is right?" ”

Liao Hua said: "Little brother Yuan Jian. The two brothers want to compete with each other, I don't know if we are competing with blades or fists? Will it be two people coming together or one on one? ”

Shi Tao and Xu Shu are good at fencing, but they are not proficient in fists and feet, Shi Tao said: "Brother Yuan, don't despise me." If you want to compete with each other, you will naturally use one enemy to fight another, how can there be a reason to bully more and less? Is it better for me to wait than to be a blade? ”

Liao Hua looked at the sword in Shi Tao's waist and then at the spear in his hand, and then put the gun on the ground and said, "Brother Shi wants to be fair, I don't need a spear, let's compare swordsmanship." Can a single brother borrow a sword? ”

How can Xu Shu not borrow it when he listens to Liao Hua's mouth? handed over the saber and said, "Brother Yuan, use it." ”

Shi Tao saw that Liao Hua had abandoned his usual weapon to compete with him, and he couldn't help suppressing a wave of anger in his heart, feeling that he was still underestimated by the young man in front of him, so he decided to teach Liao Hua a good lesson. Drew out his saber and said, "Brother Yuan, please!" ”

Liao Hua's sword really didn't underestimate Shi Tao, just because the spear was a horse weapon, and it was several times longer than the sword. It can be said that one inch is long and one inch is strong, one inch is small and one inch is clever, and Liao Hua with a gun against a sword cannot let Shi Tao get close to give full play to his advantage, on the contrary, Shi Tao must be close to gain the upper hand. Liao Hua knew in his heart that Shi Tao's close process was very dangerous, and the slightest carelessness would cause accidental injury. The two just fought and had no deep hatred, and Liao Hua naturally didn't want to hurt each other, so he chose a sword competition of the same length. For Liao Hua, who is proficient in all kinds of weapons, the use of a sword is the same as the use of a gun. He was not polite when he saw that Shi Tao was ready, and he swung his sword and stabbed straight over.

Shi Tao and Xu Shu are both close friends and academic rivals. Just now, he and Xu Shu were slightly inferior when they guessed Sima Hui's intentions, and at this time, he wanted to win back by competing with Liao Hua, so he did his best. Seeing Liao Hua's sword coming to dodge, he stabbed Liao Hua with a backhand sword.

Liao Hua didn't expect that Shi Tao, who was dressed as a scribe in front of him, really had two blows, waving the sword in his hand and fighting with Shi Tao. The two of them fought for thirty rounds, and the people around them applauded again and again, they hadn't seen the people in the village fight Liao Hua for so many rounds.

Shi Tao also secretly applauded Liao Hua in his heart, but he didn't expect that this person would be able to make a good swordsmanship at a young age. In terms of intelligence, Shi Tao thinks that he is inferior to Xu Shu, but if he compares swordsmanship, the two are really comparable. Shi Tao couldn't fight Liao Hua for a while, so he knew that Xu Shu couldn't be stronger when he came up to fight.

The two of you fought back and forth until fifty rounds, and then jumped out of the circle at the same time and saluted with fists. First, because they found that they couldn't help each other, and it would be difficult to tell the winner after another fifty rounds. The second is because both sides have physical strength consumed, and if they continue to fight, they are afraid that they will not be able to control their strength and hurt each other.

Compared with Shi Tao, who cultivates both civil and military, Liao Hua, who concentrates on martial arts, has stronger physical strength, and if he really fights again, Liao Hua's winning face is greater than Shi Tao. Liao Hua, who still had the strength to spare, saluted and asked Xu Shu: "Does Brother Shan want to compete again?" ”

Xu Shu also knew that his martial arts and his friend Shi Tao were half a catty, so he shook his head and said: "I am equal to Guangyuan's swordsmanship, if he can't win, I will be the same." Brother Yuan's marksmanship and swordsmanship are excellent, and I deeply admire them. ”

Liao Huaneng was also very happy to meet two opponents of equal strength, and said with a smile: "The two benevolent brothers can be civil and martial, and the younger brother is very respectful." With that, he returned the sword to Xu Shu.

Shi Tao stepped forward at this time and said: "I will wait for the teacher to watch the battle in the crowd, Brother Yuan will come with me, and I will introduce Brother Yuan." ”

When Liao Hua heard that Shi Tao and Xu Shu's master was also there, he thought that the other party was a swordsmanship master, so he hurriedly sorted out his clothes and stepped forward to meet him. After the introduction of Shi Tao and Xu Shuyi, Liao Hua knew that the two teachers were two old men with fairy wind bones, and they were also close friends of Huang Chengyan. So he hurriedly saluted and said, "Contemptible people to meet the two gentlemen." Since the two of them are friends of Huang Gong, they happen to return to the village with a certain person, and my master is also a guest on Huang Gong Village. ”

Pang Degong and Sima Hui couldn't help but move in their hearts when they heard this, at first they thought that the three guests on Huang Chengyan's village had similar status, but they didn't expect that Liao Hua, who was strong in martial arts, was just an entourage. This made the two even more curious about Huang Chengyan's guests.
