Chapter 20 Masters are not lonely

The sun is up, and there are more people gathered under the high platform.

Soon, looking at the silver two on the high platform, some people couldn't hold back, and a young man with long hair and fancy clothes dragged a pair of clogs to the high platform, and was the first to challenge Xia Qing.

"Qi Shao, kill him, and play the majesty of our Fifth Hengjie in Xihaiyuan!"

"Don't come down if you lose, Qishao, it's up to you!"

The crowd roared loudly, whistles came and went, and in the small city of Xihaiyuan, this young man known as Qishao seemed to be quite popular. It's just that he is thin and unsteady when he walks, so he doesn't look like a martial arts master.

Xia Qing stood up and looked at this opponent with some curiosity, "This young master, what do you call it?"

"I'm not a young master, my surname is Hong, and my name is Qishao, Hong Qishao. He is the street chief and deputy of the 5th Hengjie of Xihaiyuan, who assists the officials in controlling the itinerant vendors. The young man replied, speaking in a somewhat cohesive voice.

Xia Qing understood that the so-called street chief was just a self-styled ruffian. Interesting, the first opponent turned out to be a little rascal, Xia Qing smiled and bowed his hand, "Rude and rude, it turned out to be Hong Qishao, Lord Hong!"

"Childe is polite. ”

Hong Qishao was a little embarrassed, looked at Xia Qing, who was younger than himself, and then looked at the silver taels on the table, "Childe, as long as I win you, these silver taels will really be mine?"

"It's true, as long as you win, this ten thousand taels of silver is yours. Xia Qing smiled, this little rascal is interesting, as soon as he comes on stage, he goes straight to the point, much better than a sanctimonious guy.

The whistle was louder, and people laughed loudly under the stage.

The smile on Xia Qing's face became even brighter, this was exactly the effect he wanted, the bigger the movement, the better. There is not much movement, how can you alarm all the cows, ghosts, snakes and gods to lure them all out?

Hong Qishao waved his hand to the audience, and became even more proud in the laughter of the people. It seems that the silver tael, who is not here for the challenge, nor for the reward, is purely on stage to show his face.

Xia Qing was not angry, and looked at this little rascal who came to the stage with a smile, waiting for him to retreat.

"What, I...... There's something I don't understand. ”

Hong Qishao still has a lot of questions, and it seems that he wants to stay on the stage for as long as possible, enjoying the feeling of being watched by the people in the city, "Childe, you have money and ability, don't go to the mountains and rivers, why do you come to us to hold such a ring, and offer so many silver taels?"

"You don't understand this. Xia Qing replied.

"I didn't understand it just now, but now I know. ”

Hong Qishao paused and said, "Master lonely, son, you must be too powerful, too lonely." ”

Xia Qing smiled and looked at Hong Qishao, who thought he was smart, "Why do you say that?"

"The caravan guards who walk the rivers and lakes all say so, don't they say that the masters are all lonely?" Hong Qishao asked rhetorically.

"Haha, wrong, big mistake!"

Xia Qing didn't expect such a happy little rascal to come, and said seriously: "Actually, the master is not lonely at all, Qi Shao, you have been deceived." A master with high skills will not lack money, if you have money, you will have women, and you will not lack wine, and if you have wine, you will have friends. You see, with all the wine, the woman, and the friends, will the master be lonely?"

"No, it won't. Hong Qishao subconsciously shook his head.

"So, you've been deceived. ”

Xia Qing continued: "The only thing that is really lonely is the low-handed who cultivates to mediocrity. Because of mediocrity and unwillingness, and because of unwillingness, there is no money, no wine, no friends, and no women, so I am lonely. ”

"It makes sense, I was really deceived by them, and I didn't mix with the rivers and lakes to bully Lao Tzu!" Hong Qishao nodded, listening to Xia Qing's words, he found that he had been deceived for more than ten years, and then, he was even more puzzled, "Childe, then why are you fighting in the ring here?"

"Do you need a reason to fight in the ring? ”

Xia Qing blinked and looked up at the sky, "Qishao, do you want to continue to challenge now?"

"Go on, I'm going to see what a real martial arts master looks like!"

Hong Qishao pulled out a long knife from his waist, the knife was very long and a little heavy, it could be seen that it was a good knife, but unfortunately it was rusty, the blade was still full of gaps, and it had long been scrapped, and I don't know where he picked it up. This knife may be barely enough to scare ordinary people, but it will definitely not last a round when used in martial arts.

Xia Qing smiled dumbly, and drew a circle of one meter on the ground with the hilt of his sword, "Let you make three moves, come on, as long as you force me out of this circle, you will win, and the silver on the table is yours." ”

"Really?" asked Hong Qishao.

Xia Qing nodded, "There is no lie!"

Under the high stage, people applauded vigorously.

"Up, Qishao, kill him!"

"Seven Shao, you can't win this, you just wait to kneel on the washboard!"

People were loud and loud, and there were more onlookers. Hong Qishao is just an idle little rascal, he has never formally cultivated since he was a child, originally, no one really believes that he can win, just think it's fun to be a farce, but now, as long as Xia Qing is pushed out of the circle, it will be considered a win, and it will be different all of a sudden, which makes people look forward to it. Many people were annoyed, they didn't expect such an opportunity to fall from the sky, and they knew that they would be the first to rush up before Hong Qishao took the stage.

Under the coaxing of the people, Hong Qishao also became excited, and swung his knife to pounce, "Childe, look at my pig killing knife technique!"

One hundred taels of silver can make people break the law, one thousand taels can take risks, and ten thousand taels of lives can be dispensed with. It's a pity that the long knife in his hand couldn't even touch the corner of Xia Qing's clothes, but he suddenly lost his balance with too much force, and almost fell to the ground.

"The knife technique is good, continue, there are two more moves. Xia Qing smiled and encouraged.

Under the high stage, people burst into laughter.

Hong Qishao took a breath, turned around and pounced, he couldn't hold the long knife in his hand, but his momentum was decent, he gritted his teeth and seemed to be endless, with a ruthless look in his eyes, and his voice was like thunder, "The second style of the pig killing knife method, the autumn wind sweeps the fallen leaves!"

There was no sword light, and there was no sword wind, only saliva and turbidity spurting out of Hong Qishao's mouth, and the attack failed again without any suspense.

"For the last time, Qi Shao, it's time to seize the opportunity. Xia Qing kindly reminded that such a little rascal, when he was seven years old, he could take down a large piece of land by tying one hand.

"Again, the third way to kill the pig!"

Hong Qishao roared angrily and pounced, and he didn't know where he learned the three-legged cat kung fu, the strength of the whole person was on the knife, but his steps were vain and weak. As a result, his left foot tripped over his right foot, and with an ouch, the long knife in his hand flew out unsteadily. If you encounter a ruthless character, I am afraid that I will not be able to kill the pig, but will be slaughtered by others as a big fat pig.

Xia Qing shook his head, reached out and grabbed Hong Qishao's collar and pulled him over, and then gently pushed it with dark energy, Hong Qishao flew out like a big bird, and fell to the ground with his buttocks. The injury was not serious, Xia Qing used skill, but the pants were unfortunately worn out, revealing the flower panties and two white flower buttocks worn inside, so ashamed that some little girls quickly turned around.

People laughed, no matter how thick-skinned Hong Qishao was, he couldn't stay any longer, and he covered his ass with his hands and slipped into the crowd.

"Concession, concession!"

Xia Qing arched his hand and walked away.

The crowd was stunned, they didn't expect Xia Qing to leave like this, the atmosphere had just become warm, and they hadn't seen enough! Someone had sharp eyes, and only then did they find a line of small words written in the lower right corner of the banner, 'One game a day, only five days, outdated!'.

"It's out of date, it's coming again!"

"Damn, there are only four games left, and one chance was wasted. Where is that guy Hong Qishao? Drag him out and promise not to kill him!"

The crowd was noisy, and it was too soon to end. Originally, no one believed that Xia Qing was really a martial arts genius, and when he saw the words 'outdated and not waiting', he couldn't help but be a little shaken. Last night, because I was too late, I couldn't buy Xia Qing's paintings, and I couldn't buy any silver taels, but what about this time?

People can't get enough of it, and they can't wait for tomorrow to come.
