Chapter 12: Childe Amber
The sky is high and the clouds are light, the wind is bright and sunny, and the climate is very refreshing and pleasant.
An ancient loess road winds through the land.
At this time, several people with swords on their waists were hurrying, they were surrounded by a young man dressed as a samurai, followed by a white-haired ape walking in a pure white samurai uniform and carrying two swords.
After Chen Yi heard that Chen Fan was about to go to Xiayi, he insisted on accompanying him.
A group of country rangers also followed, everyone had selfish intentions, wanting to firmly grasp this rare opportunity, and leave a friendship no matter how bad it was.
Chen Fan knew their thoughts, but he didn't stop them.
He knows these people, and he is also famous in the countryside, although he is not as good as himself and Chen Yi, but he can't be underestimated, but he just shows whether he can worship the palace or not, it's all up to the master, he is only responsible for informing the news, and has no right to decide.
But it can't stop the enthusiasm of the rangers.
On the way, when Chen Fan cultivated the strength of the reckless cow, his qi and blood were drumming, and there was a faint thunder in his body.
This vision made Chen Yi's enthusiasm even higher, and they followed before and after the saddle along the way, making Chen Fan feel a feeling of being a superior person.
Hoof!
A sparkling convoy drove by, and the hooves of several high-fronted horses were bursting, and the samurai on it were all dressed in armor and pressed their swords, giving people a sense of fierceness and solemnity.
These warriors carried one of the large chariots, cruising back and forth, slowly along the ancient road.
"Guys, but you're going to Amber?"
A warrior in armor with a cold and hard expression and a majestic figure sat on horseback, pressed the hilt of his sword with his hand, and asked Chen Fan and his party condescendingly.
"Your Excellency, we are going to Xiayi." Chen Fan's expression was calm.
The armored warrior saw that he was dressed extraordinarily, although he was not wearing armor, the sword weapon on Chen Fan's waist was exquisite, and there was a big ape in a dressed sword behind him, which seemed to have an unusual origin.
He was quite polite in his tone: "On the way to Xiayi, passing through Amber Capital, I am ordered by the prince to invite you to participate in the Amber Capital Kendo Assembly tomorrow, you can try your skills, and the final winner will have a bounty of 1,000!" ”
Chen Fan's heart moved when he heard this, and asked, "I don't know who your son-in-law is?" ”
"My son-in-law is Amber, the son of the Amber family."
After the armored warrior finished speaking, he didn't ask the names of Chen Fan and the others, so he slapped his horse and left, caught up with the sparkling convoy, and gradually moved away along the ancient road.
"I didn't expect it to be the team of the Amber Son."
Chen Yi and the others were in awe, and said to Chen Fan: "Big brother, this time it is your light." ”
These people have lived in the countryside for a long time, and it is difficult to see people in armor, let alone the sons of the clans in charge of the Amber Capital, and now that they are invited, they talk about it with a bit of honor.
The white ape looked at the armored warrior in the distance, and wrote a symbol on the ground with a wooden stick: "? ”
Chen Fan frowned and pondered, and explained to the white ape: "Senior brother, that person just now is a warrior of the son of the Amber family, and the Amber family is a retainer of Xiahou, and the fief is the Amber capital we are about to arrive. ”
"According to the samurai, there will be a kendo gathering in Amber tomorrow, and we are invited to participate."
"There are kendo masters from all over the world, try the sword on the same field, and the final winner will have a bounty of one thousand!"
As he spoke, he saw that the white ape's eyes were flashing, and he was eager to try, Chen Fan suddenly said, "Senior brother, are you going to give it a try?" ”
"Go!"
The word white ape is written categorically and sharply.
Chen Fan suddenly had joy, they went down the mountain this time, the purpose was to promote the Taixue Palace, he was suffering from no way, but now he had the opportunity to come to the door, so he naturally had to take advantage of it.
He had heard of the Kendo rally in Amber Capital for a long time.
It is not only a gathering of local rangers and people, but also wandering samurai who have traveled here, as well as the retainers of the princes and the powerful people, and it is an excellent place to make a name for yourself.
It's just that he was once embarrassed, his swordsmanship was sparse, and he was not qualified to participate.
Now that he has the opportunity and has been instructed by his senior brother Bai Ape, Chen Fan is also proud and decides: "Okay, let's go to Amber Capital and give it a try!" ”
Immediately, Chen Yi and others were informed of this decision.
Everyone saw that he and the white ape were communicating in an unknown and strange language, and the white ape was also writing words like squares of silver hook iron paintings, and Chen Fan actually recognized it, and they were all surprised in their hearts.
At this time, when I heard Chen Fan's relay, my emotions suddenly rose.
Chen Yi flattered Chen Fan and the white ape: "Big brother, senior, the two of you will definitely achieve good results when you participate in the kendo rally this time, and we will congratulate the two of you in advance on winning the first place." ”
They obviously also know their own details, and there are many masters at the rally, and once they end up, life and death are unpredictable.
pinned his hopes on Chen Fan and the white ape.
Chen Fan smiled when he heard this, but did not answer, because the white ape could not understand the language of the humans in his own world, and he was in charge of translation, and the white ape could also detect the courtesy of these people along the way, which made its vanity extremely satisfied.
Along the way, the white ape deliberately imitated Zhou Wuwu's behavior.
It also knows that it is an outlier, different from everyone else, and the most touching style in its impression is that it respects Zhou Wuwu.
Before Zhou Wuwu left, he said to it that he should learn more, see more and listen more on this trip.
So it made a cold attitude and cherished words like gold, and secretly observed and figured out the actions of these people.
At the end of the day, the white ape has an experience of human nature, only feeling that the weak eat the strong, more than the law of the jungle, the weak's desire for strength, and the attachment to the strong have all opened its eyes.
At this time, knowing that there will be a kendo meeting tomorrow, the white ape is very moved.
It has been practicing swordsmanship for a long time, and can only roar in the mountains and forests all day long, and then it enters the human world, and wants to see what level its swordsmanship has reached.
So he kept urging Chen Fan to speed up.
Soon after, a large city appeared at the end of its way, and the towering gates of the city were piled open widely, and there were ox carts, people in coarse linen clothes, merchants with goods, and a large number of people dressed as swords and sharp weapons in and out.
A group of lightly armoured and spear-wielding guards stood guard under the city gates, checking the crowd.
"That's all for Amber."
Chen Yi's tone was full of emotion, and he recalled: "The last time I came over, it was a few years ago. ”
When passing through the city gate, Chen Fan and his party were interrogated, and after hearing that they were rangers from the countryside at the foot of the mountain, and were invited by Gongzi Amber to participate in tomorrow's kendo gathering, the guard's expression was solemn, especially after seeing the white ape, there was even more surprise in his eyes.
Obviously, they are regarded as country aliens with special skills.
"Ladies and gentlemen, because of the kendo assembly, the flow of people in the capital has increased greatly in the past few days, and the inns in the city are full.
The leading guard spoke politely and said to Chen Fan and the others.
"Childe Amber, it's really noble!"
After Chen Fan and his entourage thanked the guards, they heard a ranger shouting at the city gate, obviously happy to arrange a temporary residence for the other party.
Cheng.
After Chen Fan and the others arrived at this place, they found that it was a vacant land that had been leveled.
At this time, the clearing was full of people, rubbing shoulders, people with swords and weapons were walking around, and there were vendors selling on the side, and there were rice, noodles, cakes, soups and other food in the stalls.
There are also grinding stones in front of the craftsmen, which provide sharpening and sharpening for the swords of some rangers.
The white ape followed everyone forward, and was stared at by the people who came and went with strange eyes, and after seeing Chen Fan's extraordinary clothes and exquisite and gorgeous swords, they all had guesses, I don't know which warrior traveled here.
Chen Fan's mentality changed after practicing Mangniu Jin, and when he adjusted his breathing at this time, he had a calm and indifferent.
He sought out the person in charge of the visit, who did not think that he was well dressed, and was placed in a wooden hut like the other rangers.
Chen Yi and others also have the same residence on the side.
"Childe Amber, this person is extraordinary."
After settling on a place to live, Chen Fan said to the white ape: "Senior brother, I see Gongzi Amber's arrangement, first to arrange a free residence, so that everyone participating in the assembly has a place to live, and then regardless of status, the same house is uniformly given. ”
"I heard that even this kendo gathering was held by this person."
Chen Fan said, thinking a little, he is actually a very smart person, and he also knows how to grasp opportunities.
So I am very sensitive to the arrangement of these things.
"Invite people to buy hearts!"
The white ape used a wooden stick to write four shocking characters on the ground!
Chen Fan was taken aback, and suddenly had a feeling of enlightenment, and his eyes when he looked at the white ape had a kind of surprise, obviously frightened by these four words that penetrated people's hearts and were sophisticated.
The white ape's eyes were full of sparkle, revealing deep wisdom.
If Zhou Wuwu was here, he would be very relieved, and the white ape's subtle answer did not live up to his teachings.
