Chapter 46: The wine is wide, and the real chapter in the fist is two
The reason why Ma Kuo took the time to accompany him with peace of mind was actually due to Bai Fengchang's help.
Ma Kuo doted on Ma Qing, and was also quite concerned about his eccentricity, and only came to some ambiguous conclusions after taking a closer look. He specially invited Bai Yougui to investigate, and the two sides corroborated it, and he believed that Ma Qing somehow had an extremely strong yuan force in his body. But this Yuan Force was hidden in the depths of Zhou Tian and remained silent. But as Ma Qingyun starts Sunday, some will be leaked.
What worries Ma Kuo is that this force is somewhat contradictory to Ma Qing's meridians. It is beneficial to Ma Qing's cultivation, but it will also damage the acupoints and sanity. So the two joined forces and added a few prohibitions to several large acupoints, which locked the access between them and the outside world.
At the beginning, Ma Qing's body was like a mess of porridge, and all kinds of forces collided together, making him miserable. After returning to the city, I had to stay at home and patiently recuperate, which calmed down. Inadvertently, the practice has taken to the next level.
Shi didn't have fun for a few days, and just felt that half of the days in the small city were light, so he was invited by Ma Kuo to go to the martial arts arena to watch the colonel of the city, and he had nothing to do.
There is a long seat in front of the martial arts arena, which is the main seat, and the principals of the Qingjiang surnames are seated in turn.
The most prominent position in the center is Ma Kuo, and the first seat on his left hand is Shi Bu, and the first seat on his right hand is Li Geshu. The scripture says: If a gentleman lives on the left, he will use soldiers on the right, and the general will be on the left, and the general will be on the right. Although Li Geshu did not hold any position, Ma Kuo was still very courteous, and his status was still above the generals. Li Geshu recovered from his illness, and he didn't have the heart to watch the martial arts. It's just that he thinks that today is Li Wuxiong's first show of skills after changing bones, and it is very inappropriate to miss the heroic posture of his baby grandson who killed all sides. Thinking about this, he couldn't stop smiling on his slightly pale face. The surnames of Qingjiang saw with their own eyes that the old town guard was in good spirits, and the rumors of his death that were prevalent a few days ago were immediately self-defeating. Everyone stepped forward to give a salute, and Brother Li laughed loudly and responded one by one. However, Shi Bu and Ma Kuo next to him were a lot colder. Shi didn't twist his beard and pretended to sleep, Ma Kuo still looked indifferent, didn't speak, and didn't show any emotion.
Before the time came, the sun was slightly off, and the colonel of the city finally kicked off.
Although it was said that it was held on the 10th day of October, Ma Kuo and Bai Yougui had already asked a number of cultivators to be recruited throughout the city to test their skills and examine their family backgrounds - not to crowd out the children of the poor families, but to prevent the "wild households" and people of bad character from mixing among them, and finally selected four candidates, namely Li Wuxiong, Ma Qing, Zeng Dawei, and the younger brothers of the Han Governor's family. Just like no one calls Han Governor by his name, the name of the younger brother of the Han family is rarely mentioned, and he has no official position, so everyone calls him "Han Laoqi".
According to the convention, the colonel is no different from the general martial arts ring, that is, the four people draw lots to split the duel in pairs, and they follow the conventional and reckless rules, such as not picking out your eyes and kicking your crotch. But Ma Kuo unexpectedly added one, saying: If there is anything that the four of them cannot convince the public, the true heroes under the watchtower will come up and give advice.
These words really show Ma Kuo's sincerity in finding a general of the humerus, rather than just wanting to install one or two cronies in this position. But in fact, Ma Kuo, who is famous in Qingjiang, has personally inspected it, and the regret of the missing pearl is minimal. The audience was excited, but no one really dared to try it on stage, so Ma Kuo gave up the ring to the four young heroes.
Among the four, Li Wuxiong's appearance and figure are the most ordinary, but his reputation is undoubtedly the greatest. He was cultivated under the full protection of Li Geshu and Li Songqing for more than ten years, became famous at a young age, and at the age of 21, he was unmatched among the younger generations of Qingjiang; When he appeared, his steps were steady and calm, and he naturally showed his superior power, not to mention the cultivators in the vicinity, but the ordinary people who watched from a distance seemed to be able to detect his great strength.
What's even more surprising is that he has a black and simple broken knife pinned to his waist, and everyone here can recognize it as the supreme symbol of the Li family - with a night knife - everyone talked about it for a while, some said that Li Geshu gave way in a slight way, and some said that Li Wuxiong had learned immortal martial arts and had been recognized by the whole clan, but in any case, with the night knife, Li Wuxiong had no reason to lose to anyone.
Someone gave Ma Kuojin a word and said: Li Wuxiong and Li Gongzi are unparalleled in the country, why bother to fight in this ring again, it is better for Li Gongzi to directly lead a general to defend the city, and the other three can compete for the remaining one.
The person who speaks is only in the last seat of the main seat, and he is also a small role that is not to be seen in the core of Qingjiang on weekdays. When he spoke, the corner of his eye never left the right of Li Geshu, and he couldn't hide his wagging tail and begging for pity. Li Geshu was quite disdainful when he heard this, as if my male son was cowardly, and he wanted you to be so troublesome. Moreover, Ma Kuo has just stated that the election will only be based on talent, and those who can do it will do it. This unfamiliar person actually offered such an idea.
This sycophant is really shooting the wrong time, and it also arranges the wrong person. But Ma Kuo didn't want to say anything to save Li Geshu's face, so he didn't rush to speak. However, Shi Bu next to him said with a smile: Ma Zhenshou, I have long heard of the name of Qingjiang with a night knife, and today I will be fortunate enough to see it. Later, I will return to Mocheng, so I can show off such good martial arts in the world.
Ma Kuo nodded to Li Geshu, and after getting a response, he said slowly: I will not disappoint General Shi. Then he waved his hand and said like a fly: Go down.
The small episode of the main seat did not affect the four of them, they walked to the stage one after another, put their hands into a closed urn, and took out a bamboo stick. Li Wuxiong's bamboo stick reads: A. The other "A" sign fell into the hands of Zeng Dawei.
Ten days ago, I wanted to ask Zeng Dawei which way of several people, it is estimated that few people in the whole Qingjiang know, even when the White Horse was besieging the city, he followed Ma Taxue and made some small contributions, not many people knew him. But as soon as he stood in the ring, he was calm and relaxed, and he didn't take any pictures of Li Wuxiong's aura, which really attracted a lot of attention. And he dared to be hairy, deep and rude, although not handsome, but a bit of exoticism. Some of the girls in the audience were intoxicated and couldn't help but worry about his safety. Zeng dared to ignore the gaze of others, but lowered his head and weighed the small halberd in his hand, as if there was no one around. There were cheers next to him, and more of them cheered, and he didn't pay attention to them. Even if he was already standing in the ring, he still had no expectations for victory or defeat, nothing more than to come to fight at the invitation of Lord Zhenshou himself. In his opinion, it is just a soldier carrying out orders, simple and simple. Before he started, Zeng dared to grab his beard, glanced at Li Wuxiong opposite, looked at it carefully for a while, and laughed disdainfully, and said to himself: Pretending.
