Chapter 80: A Friend Comes from Far Away
Mid-October.
On this day, it is advisable to travel, visit friends, open the light, and sacrifice.
Early in the morning, Cui Haoran dressed neatly and led the distant mountain copper to the door, standing outside the door and looking at the distant sky or fields.
The gate of the manor was guarded by Wang Hu and Luo Biao at this time, and the two brothers looked energetic, and the same leather light armor was worn on the two of them, which looked very majestic.
The wide wall was guarded by three teams of more than 50 slaves, who took turns to parade, and the unremarkable manor became a fortified manor since yesterday.
Soon, a puff of smoke and dust rolled up from afar, slowly moving from far to near.
When it was visible to the naked eye, seven huge timberwolves ran in front with their tongues out, followed by two carriages in the back, and they were extremely powerful.
When they came to the front, the seven wolves collectively stopped 50 meters away from the manor, and when the carriage came from behind, the seven jumped off the wolf's back together, and joined a woman who came out of the carriage and walked towards the manor.
Seeing this, Cui Haoran had already walked up with the distant mountain copper lift, and the two waves of people gathered together, only to hear the woman's gentle voice first:
"Your Royal Highness, my brother and I have been traveling overnight, and we can't stop for a moment, so you have to entertain me and wait."
Cui Haoran laughed, greeted him, and said to Mr. Qingshan's eight brothers and sisters: "Hahaha, today there are friends from afar, don't you say anything!" ”
As he spoke, he stepped forward and saluted separately with the eight Qingshan siblings, and then invited them to walk towards the manor together.
Zhao Qiang, who was ordinary on the side, glanced at the heavily guarded city wall of the manor, his pupils shrank, and he didn't do anything or say anything.
The group came to the manor hall with greetings, at this time the hall had already placed 10 tables of wine and food, Mr. Qingshan's eight brothers and sisters, Cui Haoran, and Yuanshan Tong were seated respectively, one person and one coffee table, and there was no shortage of wine, melons and fruits, and cold dishes on the tea table at this time.
Sitting on the main seat, Cui Haoran picked up the wine and said to everyone: "At the beginning of last month, I received a message from the Qingshan brothers, and I was overjoyed. ”
"Cheers," he said, and everyone stood up and raised their glasses.
Putting down the wine glass, Cui Haoran spoke again: "When I entered the mountain last month, I met a big black bear blind man, and I thought that I was about to get together with my brothers, so I ordered someone to hide in the freezer. ”
Everyone raised their glasses together and said, "Your Highness, we are extremely honored!" ”
So, at the banquet, I pushed the cup and changed the lamp, and I didn't talk about it for a while.
In this banquet, the four major maids of the beginning of spring, the beginning of summer, the beginning of autumn and the beginning of winter all went out to serve food and pour wine for everyone.
Cui Haoran smiled, and when he was drunk, Cui Haoran said: "Last time, there was Qingfeng dancing sword to help the fun, and this time I asked my subordinates to dance to help the fun." ”
When the words fell, clap your hands. Yuanshan Tong received Cui Haoran's signal, got up and walked out of the banquet, came to the living room, and led 40 slaves in the hall.
The 40 slaves stood in a phalanx, neatly arranged, and even the equipment on their bodies was exactly the same, with leather and light armor all over their bodies, and then each of them danced a war dance with a sword, a round shield, and a spear.
For a while, the banquet was raised with war songs, and the war dances were stepped on, and a fierce and bloody atmosphere arose. This is the momentum and emotion that can only be expressed through the tempering of blood and sweat, and this group of slaves has been transformed from slaves back to warriors.
At this moment, Cui Haoran accepted this group of slaves from the bottom of his heart. At the same time, this group of slaves also accepted Cui Haoran from the bottom of their hearts, no reason, there has never been an example of letting slaves come out to dance war dances in the past.
Today, Cui Haoran can let them come out to dance the war dance, obviously treating them as soldiers, not slaves or prisoners of war.
At the end of the dance, Cui Haoran continued to drink with Qingshan's brothers and sisters.
When everyone was drunk, Cui Haoran instructed the maids to help Qingshan and his party go to the guest room to rest, and he also bathed and changed clothes under the service of Lixia and Lichun.
In the evening, the group had already woken up and came to the living room one after another.
Cui Haoran said to everyone: "Light the bonfire in a while, and the copper elder will show us a hand, only barbecue and wine can live up to this good time." ”
Mr. Aoyama said: "I thank Your Highness for your hospitality, I came in a hurry, I waited for my brothers and sisters to prepare a small gift for His Highness, and I hope His Highness will accept it." ”
So Mr. Aoyama took out a note from his bosom, and the note was written on the gift list.
The list was handed to Lixia, and Lixia forwarded it to Cui Haoran, who was also shocked when he looked at the gift list.
I saw that the gift list read:
A box of gold, a pair of white jade lions, 100 slaves, and an elixir.
This gift list is not light, Cui Haoran feels that Mr. Qingshan's gift is a bit heavy.
As soon as the idea fell, Mr. Aoyama continued: "I personally have a gift for His Highness, but I need His Highness to take it himself. ”
"Oh, what a way to take it." Cui Haoran became interested and asked.
"I have a chess game, and His Highness will give it with both hands when he wins my chess game." Mr. Aoyama said unhurriedly, and the seven brothers and sisters on the side drank and had fun as if nothing had happened.
Cui Haoran smiled and said arrogantly: "Okay, I'll take Mr. Qingshan's gift, come and set up the chessboard." ”
In less than a moment, the next person brought the chessboard, and Qingshan and Cui Haoran came to the bonfire, one on one side, one black and one white, ready to play.
Cui Haoran holds the sunspot, Qingshan holds the white, and Cui Haoran takes the lead.
Before playing chess, Cui Haoran asked Mr. Qingshan: "Sir, you can see the difference from yesterday." ”
"See, it's a rare opportunity for a thousand years, and I'm very excited." Mr. Aoyama said without being salty.
"Okay." After saying a good thing, Cui Haoran made the first move, his index finger and ring finger were slightly combined, and he picked up a chess piece and placed it at Tianyuan on the chessboard.
After putting away the sunspots, Cui Haoran said very domineeringly: "Where I am is Tianyuan." ”
Mr. Aoyama was noncommittal, picked up Bai Zi and silently set up the chess game, without saying a word.
Seeing this, Cui Haoran didn't speak, and also set up a chess game.
Obviously, Mr. Aoyama is one step higher, and Cui Haoran is losing and retreating in the chess game, but he has no sense of frustration and defeat.
After a while, the chess game was about to come to an end, and Mr. Aoyama spoke: "It seems that His Highness will not be able to get the gift I prepared." ”
Cui Haoran laughed and said, "Really? ”
As soon as the words fell, a stream of true qi erupted, condensing into a spear on the chessboard, falling vertically, and smashing all of Mr. Aoyama's white seeds into powder.
When the wind blows, the powder of the white pieces drifts away with the wind, and there are only black pieces on the board.
The people who had already gathered to watch the two of them play against each other, looking at the hand that Cui Haoran made, some showed surprised expressions, some showed fearful expressions, and the only woman showed contempt, and some were passionate, and Yuanshan Tong was one of the passionate people.
Last time, Qingshan Manor Yuanshan Tong saw His Royal Highness fighting with Qingfeng, and guessed that the spear was transformed by true qi, and now that he saw it with his own eyes, he was even more excited.
His Royal Highness has such a ability, what can't the world take.
