Chapter 35: A Strange Situation
In a state of irrationality with a hot head and full of energy, he blurted out: "Master knelt down and begged for mercy, otherwise don't expect Master I to let you go." β
This is also one of the most common clichΓ©s spoken by Jianghu people when they fight. If you want to be afraid, kneel down and beg me to spare your life, the arrangement of the words may be a little different, but the prominent themes are generally the same. It is nothing more than humiliating the other party to achieve one's own spiritual satisfaction, and asking the other party to kneel down and beg for mercy to show one's benevolence and kindness.
Basically, this sentence belongs to people who often say it, but the people who say it, the people who listen to it, don't take it seriously, and they don't think that such a threat will really be effective.
The people on the rivers and lakes, if they are not shameless and spineless, even if they can't beat them and run away desperately, they will never kneel.
Lu Sen himself didn't expect this sentence to really work, and as he spoke, he continued to swing his sword more vigorously,
Unexpectedly, Fu Hanqing suddenly shouted: "Speaking counts." Then, the body abruptly withdrew from the sword net.
He had obviously been enveloped by the sword net, but at this time, he said that he would retreat, and in an instant, he had withdrawn far away, and Lu Sen's sword shadow couldn't even catch up with his shadow.
Lu Sen was shocked to see that the person who was already under his sword was far away in the blink of an eye, and the sword in his hand was halfway swung, and he found that the target he wanted to cut was no longer there. He was halfway through a swing of his sword, frozen in mid-air, his posture extremely strange and ridiculous.
And Fu Hanqing was actually clean and neat, and bowed directly to him. smiled: "You spare me." Then he easily stood up, stretched, and smiled at him so kindly, "In front of so many people, you can't talk and don't count." β
At this moment, the eyes and expressions of the countless people around him were wonderful, which can no longer be described by pen and ink. Even those who have gone through the dust and smoke of the rivers and lakes and pretended to be the sky falling down will not be too surprising. The great masters who claimed to have excellent concentration, none of them could hide the consternation on their faces and the shock in their eyes at this time.
At this moment, how many pairs of chopsticks fell directly to the ground, and how many wine glasses were shattered. How many irrepressible exclamations sounded, I'm afraid it can't be calculated.
Fu Hanqing didn't know how much shock he had caused in the hearts of others, and suddenly found that he was so firmly fixed by countless pairs of eyes, even if he was as dull as him, he couldn't help but feel uncomfortable, so he had to laugh dryly in all directions.
Jianghu people value face, talk about backbone, no matter how big you are, if you are so timid that you bend your knees to people and beg for mercy, you will definitely lose your reputation.
But now. There were so many people present, and no one could laugh at Fu Hanqing. Dare to despise Fu Hanqing.
If the challenger's martial arts are similar to Fu Hanqing's, Fu Hanqing's begging for mercy. will naturally attract everyone's unanimous ridicule, but Lu Sen's martial arts are really too far from Fu Hanqing.
With the light skills that Fu Hanqing showed just now, people with eyesight know that comparing Fu Hanqing with Lu Sen is equivalent to comparing ants with elephants.
An elephant is provoked by an ant and does not trample the ant to death. Instead, they begged for mercy from the ants, and normal people saw this situation. They don't despise elephants, but they only feel extremely surprised by the absolute unreasonableness of this thing.
Not only were the others stunned, but Lu Sen himself could only stand there awkwardly, at a loss, not knowing how to deal with the strange situation in front of him.
He has been walking the rivers and lakes for three years, and the words with a little insulting demonstration have been said countless times, and the effect of each time is either to attract others to be angry and desperate, or to frighten people to flee quickly, and there has never been a time when he can say that the opponent can obediently surrender and kneel. The only time he had encountered someone so obedient was that he himself was frightened and froze.
Although Lucerne is hot-blooded and impulsive, he is not completely arrogant and stupid. When I first came to challenge Fu Hanqing, I already regarded him as a top master in my heart, thinking that he might die for a lifetime. But young people with strong blood always value reputation and face more than life. In order to save face in the eyes of his sweetheart, why not die. The more brave and heroic the battle, the easier it is to become famous in history.
Most of the young people on the rivers and lakes have such thoughts, and for this kind of thought, he is not the only one who challenges the famous master regardless of life or death.
After doing it, Fu Hanqing only defended for a long time, and when he was watched by countless masters, he was too excited, which made Lu Sen temporarily lose his mind, and then he would say such things in a crazy and confident state.
In the blink of an eye, Fu Hanqing was far out of the range of his swordsmanship. The person who seemed to be in the palm of his hand just now could no longer be touched in an instant, and this fact immediately poured his hot mind like a basin of cold water.
Then, when he suddenly realized the gap in strength between each other, he suddenly saw that person who was stronger than him kneeling for him, this feeling was definitely not majestic, not complacent, not proud, but indescribable embarrassment.
He just stayed there all of a sudden, his face was red and he couldn't speak, and his body actually maintained the posture of slashing the sword in the air just now, and he forgot to return to his normal state, so it looked indescribably weird and weird.
At this time, Fu Hanqing, who was the culprit of this amazing spectacle, was also very uncomfortable, and was numb all over his body by being stared at by a bunch of people, and heard Di Jiu's somewhat cold voice in his ears: "Even if it is for us to talk about good things in advance, if you want to act to show weakness, you don't need to kneel down without moving, you don't take the face of the Divine Sect to heart, and you don't think about other disciples." In the future, how can we announce the name of the sect leader to the people of the world, and how can we tell the world that the Zhenyu Martial Arts Hall was once a branch of the Divine Sect? If people know that the master of our sect has knelt down before a humble and reckless man, how can the whole sect have face? β
Fu Hanqing didn't condense his voice into filaments like this, except for the person he was talking to, no one else could hear it, so he had to laugh dryly.
In fact, Di Jiu's assumption was already exalting him.
Although he had talked to Di Jiu Qi Hao about what he was looking forward to, he told them some ideas and put forward the Fa. But basically
Forget about it when you're done. In a certain aspect, Fu Hanqing can be regarded as having a deep understanding of the marrow, mentioning the general direction of work, making some enlightening suggestions to his subordinates, and easily being the shopkeeper and not caring about anything.
At best, it can be regarded as trusting the ability of subordinates, knowing how to make good use of others, and not being a constraint.
The heroes of the world at this feast, Di Jiu and Qi Hao really took a lot of effort, every detail, every step was carefully arranged, carefully considered, and thought about it just for Fu Hanqing's unexpectedly absurd idea to have a little more possibility to come true.
But Fu Hanqing himself was dizzy, he only cared about enjoying the incomparably happy lazy time, and he had a bunch of great and kind thoughts and thoughts that Di Jiu and Qi Hao and others had said bitterly, but this person didn't think about it at all.
The reason why Lu Sen was able to stumble all the way to Fu Hanqing by mistake, and was able to chase Fu Hanqing all the way without being disturbed by any Zhenyu Martial Arts Hall disciples, was just because Di Jiu and Qi Hao needed someone to provoke Fu Hanqing in public. And even if Lu Sen himself doesn't come out, they will arrange for other people to appear.
It's just that Fu Hanqing himself didn't realize their hard work, of course, he could have been woken up in a deep sleep, people were a little confused, anyway, when Lu Sen kept chasing and slashing him, he didn't think about the purpose of this conference once. He knelt down for Lu Sen, but he just figured out this labor-saving action and solved this annoying matter, and there was absolutely no other meaningful meaning. It's not about paving the way for the next move.
At this time, he was reminded by Di Jiu's words, even if he was an irresponsible slacker like Fu Hanqing, he was still a little weak-hearted.
Di Jiu is a person who knows him better, looking at his expression and eyes, his heart is moving, could it be that this person knelt down just now, really just wanted to beg for mercy and save trouble, right?
As soon as this thought came to him, there was an immediate rush of anger.
Fu Hanqing is now much smarter than before. As soon as he saw that Di Jiu's face was wrong, he immediately felt that disaster was coming, and he unconsciously retreated his legs. It looked as if he had been forced to retreat by the gazes of everyone present.
He retreated more than a dozen steps, and before he knew it, he retreated to the door of the hall and laughed at everyone again: "Everyone eat and drink well." Well...... Well, drink well, eat well......"
Then, as soon as he turned around, he ran away with a smoke.
He is very qualified, very kind, and trusts his good boss very much, and the following work is better to let everyone play freely and continue to complete it, as for himself...... Well. Basically, I still miss it even more. The warm big bed in the bedroom.
There was a crisp sound of "pop", and the second cup turned into pieces in Di Jiu's hand. This time he was half angry, half deliberate, he had no strength in his hands to protect himself, his fingers were cut by broken porcelain and bleeding, he lowered his head, looked at the bright red between his fingers, and sighed bitterly; "This fool."
Fu Hanqing's kneeling had already stunned a bunch of people, and he escaped with such a hand again. It made the whole hall stunned. At a time when everyone was so shocked that they lost the ability to think, only the prefect who was standing beside Di Jiu heard the sound of the cup breaking, saw the blood between Di Jiu's fingers, and the sadness on his face.
The prefect was stunned, and then asked: "Di Gongzi, you just mentioned that you are uneasy about Fu Gongzi's affairs, could it be that Fu Gongzi's behavior is not the same as Fu Gongzi's behavior, and there are other hardships." β
Di Jiu sighed, his eyebrows were full of helplessness and melancholy: "My lord clearly checks, my senior brother would rather be humiliated than fight, there is indeed something unspeakable, but this matter is too ridiculous to say, it can only make the world laugh, I think it's better to forget it, everyone should only be ......."
He paused, his face showed a look of humiliation and pain, and his tone was sad: "It's just that my master's disciples are afraid of the enemy and cowardly." β
With the prefect's question, at this time, the attention of everyone in the hall has been focused on Di Jiu, the more Di Jiu refuses to say more, the more everyone is like ten thousand ants scratching in their hearts, where are they willing to rest. Immediately, there was a sound of persuasion all around.
"Di Gongzi, you don't have to scruple, if you have anything difficult, just tell us calmly."
"Yes, it's not that I'm boasting, all of us here today are people with little prestige and ability, if there is any difficulty, we can help, and we will not shirk it."
"Yes, Di Gongzi, Fu Gongzi's martial arts are high and low, a discerning person can know it at a glance, how dare he despise him, what is Fu Gongzi's troubles, you can tell him."
Di Jiu was still hesitating, Qi Hao was already full of emotion and strode to his side: "Just say it, it doesn't matter if people in the world despise our martial arts hall, but we can't let his humiliating painstaking efforts be in vain." β
Di Jiu's expression changed to resoluteness at this point, nodded, and saluted with fists around him: "Even if you are so gracious, how dare you hide it again, the reason for this matter is actually ......"
