Chapter XXVIII
Early the next morning, before dawn, Liu Xiu was woken up by the sound of "ping-pong" metal impact. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
He and Liu Jiu have a very good relationship, and the brothers often sleep on their feet. Last night, because the discussion was late, he was woken up early in the morning to make him feel a little unhappy.
Liu Xiu gently shook Liu Xiu beside him and said, "Brother, you listen to the voice outside the camp. ”
Liu Xuan heard the sound of the intersection of the "Ping Pong Chang" weapons, and suddenly came to his senses. He hurriedly got up from the seat and said in a deep voice, "Go!" Go out and check it out! ”
The brothers opened the curtain outside the tent and looked in the direction from which the voice had come.
I saw a soft mist rise around the camp, and the mountains were painted with a soft milky white, and the white mist rendered everything hazy and psychedelic. And in the middle of this seemingly blurry mist, there are two figures fighting fiercely, saying that it is a battle, but in fact, it is more like a master's teaching to the younger generations.
"Plateau, hard! How many times have I told you! Be steady when you hold a knife! If you don't use force, you will be blown away by a few moves, and your head will have to be moved! ”
Zhang Aijia held a dagger shining with cold light in his hand, and while he shouted loudly in his mouth, he rushed forward with a brisk stride and stabbed Gao Yuan in the abdomen.
The plateau between the lightning and flint couldn't dodge at all, so he had to slash the big knife in his hand to the abdomen. With a "bang", the dagger slammed into the big knife, and a huge force struck from the knife, making Gao Yuan feel as if he had been hit by a wild bison, and he quickly retreated, using the inertia of retreat to unload the huge force from the knife.
Gao Yuan took a step back to stabilize his figure, and several clear footprints appeared on the yellow earth in front of him, which showed the great power of this force.
"Ahem, when did you have so much strength? Almost didn't kill me! ”
Zhang Aijia smiled and said, "You don't understand this, right?" For example, a person has a strength of 100 kilograms, but he may only use 30 percent of a punch, and 70 percent of it is wasted. ”
"So powerful?!" Gao Yuan's eyes widened, he just practiced the external skills of self-defense, and he only knew a little about what Zhang Aijia just said, but it sounded really powerful.
Zhang Aijia saw that Gao Yuan was stunned by his words, and immediately continued proudly: "I'm still good, if it was the boss who came just now, don't talk now, even standing will be a problem!" The bright energy hurts people's muscles and bones from the outside to the inside, and the dark energy hurts people's internal organs from the inside out....... hey! Why am I telling you this? You haven't even finished the easy tendon forging bones, and it's also wild. ”
He rolled his eyes at the plateau and laughed at him.
When had Gao Yuan been despised by others like this, he was suddenly angry, he dragged the big knife in his hand to the ground, and pointed at Zhang Aijia with the other finger and scolded: "Come on!" Let's do it again! Look at me if I don't cut you're called Mom! ”
"Good! Come on, if you touch the slightest corner of my clothes, I'll lose! Zhang Aijia replied nonchalantly.
With that, Gao Yuan decided to take the initiative, raised his knife and began to slash over.
Liu Xuan and Liu Xiu were also very curious when they saw the scene in front of them, so they stood aside and watched.
"Third brother, what do you think of Brother Boya's martial arts?" Liu Xuan turned his head and asked.
"The tall one doesn't seem to be very good at martial arts, his sword skills seem to be mighty, but in fact, it is in vain, and there are a lot of flaws, as for the black, thin and short person, he is strong in martial arts, especially his body is outstanding, smart and elegant, and extraordinary, it seems that he can compete with your brother."
Liu Xuan listened to his younger brother's comments, but just smiled and shook his head, but did not speak. I didn't seem to believe that the dark, thin, short man could compare to me.
Liu Xiu knew that his brother had always been inferior to his own martial arts, so he smiled and didn't speak, he turned his head and looked at the situation on the scene seriously.
Gao Yuan has been imitating Ximen Junhui's knife technique, since the two times Ximen Junhui carried a big knife to kill the Quartet like a killing god, Gao Yuan has been coveting the knife technique he practiced, but because of the poor relationship, he has always asked why he had the opportunity, so after consulting Zhang Aijia, he began to figure it out by himself.
It's just that his vision is limited, and the sword technique he wields now is just a form, and he doesn't really understand the connotation.
"Okay, it's useless for you to practice a thousand times or ten thousand times, you don't call it a knife technique at all, right? Who wouldn't hack it messily! Zhang Aijia skillfully pulled away the big knife that was split by the plateau, and couldn't help but roll her eyes and say.
Early in the morning, he was pulled over by Gao Yuan as a sparring partner, and he felt very helpless.
"What then? I can't be a turtle shell all the time, can I? Gao Yuan said with a frown.
"Be content, you, it's good to practice kung fu well! If you want to practice internal skills, wait until this task is completed, and then exchange for a physical art cheats to practice, can't you? ”
"Wait, someone's coming."
Zhang Aijia felt that someone was watching him from behind, and hurriedly turned around to see Liu Xuan and Liu Xiu who were watching the battle.
Liu Xuan saw that he was stopped by the two of them, so he stroked his palms and walked over laughing, and said, "Haha! Sure enough, it is a hero who is a teenager, and the two young heroes are very good at kung fu, admire and admire! ”
It was the first time Gao Yuan was praised like this by others, and he was a little embarrassed to give up his hand and responded: "I have won a prize!" ”
Liu Xuan looked at the two of them, his eyes were slightly condensed, and he said with a smile: "I don't know what the two young heroes call them?" Yesterday, I was excited for a while, and I neglected the two, and I hope that the two of them can be Haihan. ”
When he was in the countryside of Chungling, he was a powerful and powerful man, the best soldier, and he was always followed by a group of followers. In the words of Takahara, it is a figure at the level of the boss of the underworld who takes all the black and white.
When such a person speaks, it naturally makes the plateau feel like a spring breeze, which is very useful. Although there are many elements to win over these words, you must know that Gao Yuan and Zhang Aijia are now Duanmuci's "domestic servants", and in the hierarchical Western Han Dynasty and even the New Dynasty, servants have never had any social status, and they can be bought and sold at will as accessories of the master.
After Wang Mang came to power, although he ordered a ban on the sale of slaves and maids, this phenomenon was still widespread among the people. Therefore, when Gao Yuan saw Liu Xuan treating himself and Zhang Aijia so politely and kindly, he couldn't help but have a good impression of him in his heart.
"You're welcome!" Gao Yuan hurriedly replied: "My surname is Gao Mingyuan, and my name is Yansheng, but I am just a little scholar of my master, and I don't deserve to be treated so favorably by the general." ”
Liu Xiu, who was on the side, couldn't help but pause when he heard the words "Yan Sheng" on the plateau, and then his eyes flashed, and he said: "The Yan Sage of people, his heart is good, it is like saying it directly!" I didn't expect Brother Yan to be a person who reads poetry and books, this way of governing the country and leveling the world, Xiu is also slightly involved, and I hope to have a good discussion with Brother Yan another day. ”
Liu Xiu said a sentence from the Confucian classic "University", when he was studying in Chang'an in his early years, he mainly studied "Shangshu", and he understood the general meaning. I also carefully studied another classic work of Confucius, "The University". So when I heard the word "Yansheng" when Gao Yuan introduced himself, he immediately reacted.
Liu Zhuo, who was on the side, heard his younger brother's words, and immediately glanced at Gao Yuangao. He secretly thought in his heart: "I didn't expect that even Brother Boya's little scholar could have such knowledge, I really admire it!" ”
After Gao Yuan finished introducing himself, he saw that Zhang Aijia beside him didn't know how to speak, so he hurriedly smashed him.
"I....my name is Zhang Aijia." He spoke in the vernacular, and he only said his name and did not say his own words, which suddenly gave people a cheesy feeling.
There was a trace of disdain in Liu Xuan's eyes, but on the surface, he still said politely: "Hehe, look up for a long time." ”
Without even raising his hand, this attitude is a world of difference from the attitude towards the plateau just now.
The two sides casually said a few words, and slowly, the more Gao Yuan chatted with the two of them, the more speculative he became, and the two of them said a word and I replied, and then they were almost called brothers. It's just that Zhang Aijia on the side stood like a fool and couldn't interject at all.
Gao Yuan noticed his embarrassment, and hurriedly found an excuse like Liu Xuan's farewell, and pulled Zhang Aijia back to their military tent.
"Gao Yuan, why do I think that Liu Jiu looks down on me?" Zhang Aijia asked unconvinced.
"Who made you not understand any basic manners?" Gao Yuan couldn't help but roll his eyes when he heard his words, and said: "When introducing to others, it is the most basic etiquette to say that your own words, so that others can easily use words to honor you." Takahara explained.
"And most importantly, your name is a cheap name, and of course others will look down on you when they hear your name."
"Cheap? What do you mean? ”
"You see, our names are all single-character names, only your name is two-character names. This is called 'cheap name' in ancient law, and only those who are lowly slaves or whose ancestors have committed serious crimes will give their children a two-character name. Anyway, in the Han Dynasty, taking a two-character name was a great shame and a stain for a lifetime. Later, the two-word name gradually increased. ”
"Oh, so that's ......" Zhang Aijia suddenly realized: "Then I won't say my name next time someone asks me my name." ”
"Whatever you want."
"Eh, what does your word 'Yansheng' mean? I saw that Liu Xiu said a lot, but I didn't understand much. ”
"Yan Sheng?" A strange smile appeared on the corner of Gao Yuan's mouth and said: "It's that my appearance is holy, which means that I am handsome!" ”
"Die!"
