Chapter 7 You're a martial arts master

After entering the house, Xu Xiao brought a stool to Xu Fengnian, and the sweet potato helped Xu Fengnian put on his shoes.

Xu Longxiang, who had been guarding his brother here before, and watched his brother beating his father with great joy, stepped forward and asked with a smirk: "Brother, are you angry?" ”

Xu Fengnian got up, raised his hand on his shoulder, and said softly: "It's deflated." ”

The smirk on Xu Longxiang's face gradually subsided, a little aggrieved color appeared on his cheeks, and he flattened his mouth and said, "Brother, three years is a long time!" ”

Xu Xiao's eyes flashed with shame on the side, Xu Fengnian hugged his younger brother and patted him on the back to show comfort.

Then he pinched his shoulder and said, "Okay, it's so late, let's go back to my room early to rest!" ”

Xu Longxiang pulled Xu Fengnian's sleeve and said with a worried face: "Brother......"

How could Xu Fengnian not understand his younger brother's thinking, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, brother won't go, I'll watch the fish tomorrow." ”

"Hmm." Xu Longxiang smiled again, nodded heavily, and then turned around as if no one was around.

"Wait......" Xu Fengnian stopped him, his head tilted in the direction of Xu Xiao, and said softly: "Hello." ”

"Oh!" Only with his words, Xu Longxiang can accept it 100% completely.

Xu Longxiang hugged his fist at Xu Xiao and bowed, and said, "Dad, I'll go back to sleep." ”

"Well, go ahead!" Xu Xiao waved his hand helplessly.

This youngest son, except for his brother, no one else in the palace is taken to his heart, including his father.

After sending Xu Longxiang away, Xu Xiao looked at Li Fei and said with a smile: "Sit down!" You're welcome at home. ”

Li Fei was stunned when he heard this, and muttered "at home" in a low voice.

Then Xu Fengnian and Sweet Potato found that Li Fei's eyes were slightly red, and when they saw Xu Xiao's gaze change, there was a little more admiration in their reverence.

Xu Fengnian secretly rolled his eyes in his heart, this old thing really has a way of buying people's hearts.

However, he was still very happy that Li Fei had a relationship with his family, and a smile flashed in Xu Xiao's eyes.

I have to say that Oscar owes Li Fei a little golden man, just this acting skills, this micro-expression, this change in eyes, all the actors are scum in front of him.

After the three of them sat down, Xu Fengnian asked, "Ah Fei, you are in such a hurry to find me, what's the matter?" ”

Li Fei sorted out his emotions and said solemnly: "Xu Shao, when I was bathing just now, I recalled my experience in the bathtub in the past few days, and I felt that there was something wrong with those Chu soldiers. ”

Xu Fengnian perked up and said, "I can't figure it out either." ”

Li Fei's eyes lit up and said, "Oh? Can't figure out what? ”

Xu Fengnian said: "What I can't figure out is why those veterans of the Chu State surrendered. ”

Li Fei said with relief: "It turns out that you have also noticed, it seems that I still underestimated your wisdom." ”

"Also, if you can deceive the world for so many years, how can your wisdom be low."

Invisible sycophants are the most popular.

Xu Fengnian smiled, a flash of color flashed in his eyes, and then he asked with a straight face: "What do you think?" ”

Li Fei groaned: "Those Chu soldiers dare to chase you outside Lingzhou City to assassinate you, which means that they are not afraid of death at all." ”

"Because if you do it here, they won't be able to run away whether they succeed or not."

"And the leader also said that after killing you, he will kill himself on the spot, and repay your grace for not killing, I believe you can also see that this is by no means a big talk."

Xu Fengnian nodded and said, "That's right, it's because they are by no means afraid of death that I can't figure out why they want to be caught with their hands tied instead of choosing to fight hard." ”

Li Fei said in a condensed voice: "It's very simple, because the assassination game is not over yet, they are just the first wave." ”

"It's gratifying, but even if it doesn't work, they're sure that you won't be able to escape the second wave of assassinations, and they think you're dead."

"Therefore, they do not want to die just now, but they want to save their lives, and see with their own eyes that you have been stabbed to death, and the prince is grief-stricken."

After listening to Li Fei's words, Xu Fengnian only felt that he suddenly became enlightened, and all the incomprehensions were completely clear.

He and Xu Xiao looked at Li Fei with a little more weight in their eyes.

Aside from other skills, with Li Fei's wisdom and the vision and insight he showed on the road, he cultivated it carefully, and he was a talented military advisor.

In the original play, Xu Fengnian also went to meet the captured leader of the Chu soldiers, and through talking with him, he slowly deduced this.

But at this moment, Li Fei has already made it clear, so it doesn't matter if he sees the leader of the Chu soldiers or not.

The sweet potato on the side frowned slightly, and couldn't help but say: "But this is Lingzhou, the core of Beiliang, what kind of power is there in the world that can make the son fall into a mortal situation?" ”

As soon as the sweet potato's voice fell, Li Fei and Xu Fengnian said in unison: "Beiliang Army." ”

After saying this, the two looked at each other and smiled.

Sweet potato was stunned, and said in disbelief: "You mean that there are ghosts in the Beiliang army?" ”

Xu Fengnian said: "Yes, originally those Chu soldiers didn't know my identity, but in the Northern Liang Army, someone sent my portrait to the Chu soldiers." ”

"So those Chu soldiers are just the beginning, and the real drama is sung by the inner ghosts."

Sweet potato said: "Even so, we still need to torture those Chu soldiers as soon as possible to find out who the inner ghost is." ”

Li Fei waved his hand and said, "There's no need, those Chu soldiers didn't think about living at all, and they couldn't ask anything if they were tortured." ”

"Maybe they will be bitten indiscriminately, confusing our vision and wasting our time."

Xu Fengnian looked at Li Fei with a smile in his eyes and said, "Then what do you think we should do?" ”

Li Fei said with a smile: "You don't need to do anything, just wait for the other party to make a move, what we need to do is to arrange the power to protect you." ”

Speaking of this, Li Fei's eyes sank slightly, and he continued: "I was scared by those guys at the wine stall outside the city, and I have already remembered a small part of the way the 'Seeking Destiny Sanskrit Yin' is played. ”

"If I can fully remember, below the first-grade great master, whoever comes will die."

Xu Xiao, Xu Fengnian, and Sweet Potato were all shocked in their hearts, and their eyes looked at Li Fei with an inexplicable color.

Xu Fengnian knew Li Fei relatively well, and knew that he was not a person who was blowing nonsense, so he would definitely say it with a certain degree of certainty.

Since he said so, then this song must have that power.

Xu Fengnian looked at Li Fei with burning eyes, and said, "Then I'll look at you, you know, I don't like to learn martial arts, but I'm still very interested in this rhythm." ”

Li Fei said without hesitation: "No problem, I will try my best to recall and strive to master this killer weapon as soon as possible." ”

"In addition to that, I can teach you the 'Lullaby' and the 'Pure Heart Pushan Song' first."

"Although these two songs have no ability to kill the enemy, they are okay with self-protection."

"But you have to find a secluded place to practice, otherwise the whole palace will fall asleep after the song is blown, and the joke will be bigger."

Several people smiled knowingly, and Xu Fengnian asked curiously: "I remember that this lullaby is not against me, and everyone who hears the sound of the flute will fall asleep." ”

"It stands to reason that the person who plays the flute himself hears the flute, so why doesn't he fall asleep?"

Li Fei explained: "Because when the player plays, there is a matching breathing and ventilation method, and according to this method, he can be immune to the hypnotic effect of the song. ”

Xu Fengnian suddenly said, "I see, what is the specific power of this lullaby?" ”

Li Fei thought for a while and said, "This piece mainly relies on its unique tone and melody to achieve a hypnotic effect, and there are no other peculiarities, so the power is not great." ”

"A martial arts master with internal strength is more likely to resist the invasion of the flute, or plug his ears and can't hear the flute, and it will also not work."

Speaking of this, he turned his head to look at Xu Xiao and said, "I have also considered applying lullaby to the battlefield. ”

Xu Xiao's expression moved, leaned forward slightly, and asked, "How?" Could it work? ”

Li Fei said: "It can't be effective on a frontal battlefield, especially after the war, the sound of people neighing and horses, weapons colliding, etc., will make people unable to sleep." ”

"After all, this song only makes people fall asleep, not unconscious, as long as they are woken up, or touched, they will wake up, but we can change our thinking!"

"For example, when attacking the enemy camp at night, let's prepare soldiers and horses first, and then send a master who can play lullaby to lurk near the enemy camp to play."

"When all the soldiers and horses in the enemy camp fall asleep, let's kill them in one fell swoop, won't we be able to win the battle in one go?"

"Or when the city is sieged, send a master to play a lullaby under the city walls."

"When all the defenders in the city fall asleep, as long as we move smaller, maybe our army will set up a long ladder and climb the city wall, and the enemy will not know it!"

Xu Xiao slapped his thigh and said with a little excitement: "Wonderful, wonderful!" When attacking Xiangfan and the West Barrier, if this song had helped, why would there be so many casualties. ”

Xu Xiao Huoran got up and said: "This lullaby of the virtuous nephew, I don't know how much Beiliang Erlang's life can be saved, this king is in this generation of 350,000 Beiliang iron horses, thank you for the virtuous nephew." ”

After speaking, he hugged his fist at Li Fei and bowed.

Li Fei hurriedly got up and helped Xu Xiao up, and said, "The prince can't be like this, this is what the little nephew should do, and he can't afford to be a courtesy from the prince." ”

Xu Xiao got up and grabbed Li Fei's arms, and said with a smile: "Worthy of it, this Beiliang will be handed over to Feng Nian sooner or later, as his good friend and brother, you will have to help him a lot in the future." ”

Li Fei said: "Don't worry, the little nephew will spare no effort to help Xu Shao." ”

Xu Fengnian, who was on the side, said lazily: "Who said I was going to take over Beiliang?" Today, I am still the number one gentleman in the world who knows nothing but eating, drinking, and having fun. ”

The smile on Xu Xiao's face froze, and Li Fei also frowned.

Xu Xiao moved his stool to Xu Fengnian, sat down and said in a gentle voice: "There's no need to be so wronged, right?" ”

Xu Fengnian leaned over slightly and said, "The so-called ointment, what you are best at is spending all day and drinking, so what is the grievance?" ”

Xu Xiao sighed and said, "I know, you are all here to hide your clumsiness, you have acted very well, but others may not believe you." ”

Xu Fengnian turned his head and asked, "Who doesn't believe it?" ”

Xu Xiao pointed at Li Fei next to him confidently and said, "Do you ask Ah Feixin?" ”

“……”

Xu Fengnian rolled his eyes and said angrily: "Not everyone has such insight as him. ”

Gu Cheng Xu Xiao raised his hand and nodded, and said, "Okay, let's not talk about Ah Fei, do you remember why you were allowed to go out to travel three years ago?" ”

Speaking of this, Xu Fengnian was also a little cautious, "Avoiding the royal family's marriage?" ”

Xu Xiao said with a straight face: "That's right, Princess Sui Zhu is very favored, if the royal family really believes that you are just a notorious gentleman, they will still recruit you as a concubine?" ”

Xu Fengnian was speechless, his face was a little unsightly, he had been co-authoring for so many years, was he singing a one-man show?

Those who should believe do not believe, and those who should not believe believe all believe in it, what is this......

Seeing this, Xu Xiao persuaded bitterly: "Feng Nian, you are the body of the son of the world, and the inheritance of our Beiliang Iron Cavalry, with your identity, you can't avoid the sword light and sword shadow." ”

Li Fei also moved a stool to sit beside Xu Xiao and persuaded Xu Fengnian: "Xu Shao, the prince is right, a man's husband was born with responsibilities on his shoulders. ”

"The greater the ability, the greater the responsibility, if you are really a fool who does not learn and does not know, then don't say anything."

"But you obviously have a gully in your chest and a good plan in your belly, even if you don't like this whirlpool of power, you can't bear to look at Beiliang's great foundation, and it will fall apart, right?"

"Since you can't avoid it, why don't you puff up your chest and meet it, with your Xu Shao's brain, who else can you be afraid of?"

"If you want to be really happy and careless, and have no intention of power, it's simple, become your own son as soon as possible, train your son, and then pass on the position?"

"At that time, no matter what kind of life you want to live, I promise to accompany you, sing music for you, and accompany you all over the world, what do you think?"

Xu Xiao slapped Li Fei on the shoulder, and a look of relief appeared on his face, these words really went to his heart.

Xu Fengnian looked at Xu Xiao with a strange expression, and then at Li Fei, and pointed at the two with a tangled face: "How do I feel that you two are more like two fathers and sons?" ”

"Xu Xiao, tell me honestly, is this kid an illegitimate child you left outside?"

The sweet potato on the side pursed his mouth, and a smile rushed up, but fortunately, he finally held back and didn't laugh out loud.

Li Fei rolled his eyes speechlessly, while Xu Xiao smiled bitterly: "If I really have such an illegitimate child, I have to wake up laughing when I dream." ”

Xu Fengnian waved his hand irritably and said, "Okay, I'm too lazy to talk to you, I'm hungry." ”

Xu Xiao was stagnant, but he didn't say more, today's exchange was not useless, he could see that Xu Fengnian was a little shaken.

Take your time! In order to let this son carry the banner of Beiliang, he made so many preparations, and he didn't believe that this stinky boy would not enter the army.

Now that he has Li Fei by his side, Xu Xiao is even more grasped.

Immediately got up and said happily: "Okay, then let's go to dinner first, I asked the kitchen to stew deer tendon for you, as well as fresh seafood, this phoenix egg just taken." ”

"And the freshly steamed crystal jade dew balls, I'll have them all sent to your house."

Xu Fengnian turned around and walked to the bedroom, ready to change clothes, and said, "I want to eat sweet potatoes now." ”

"Earth...... Sweet potato? ”

Xu Xiao looked at Li Fei with a stunned face, but saw him grinning and said, "I also want to eat sweet potatoes." ”

Xu Xiao: "......"

……

After Xu Fengnian changed his clothes, he sent the sweet potatoes back to Wutong Garden, and he walked northeast along the verandah.

Xu Xiao and Li Fei followed him, turning around and going further and further, and finally came to the most remote house in the northeast corner near the courtyard wall.

He pushed open the door, and after seeing the scene in the house, he shouted, "Lao Huang, you eat alone again." ”

It turned out that this was Lao Huang's residence.

Li Fei followed Xu Xiao into the room, and saw Lao Huang sitting cross-legged at the table, eating with a mouth full of oil.

There was a large bowl on the table, and there was still half a bowl of braised pork left in the bowl, and a large plate of peanuts next to it.

Originally, the beautiful expression on Lao Huang's face suddenly collapsed when he saw Xu Xiao.

However, he still got up and gave up the main seat to Xu Xiao.

Xu Xiao didn't talk to him politely, and said casually: "Take a few bowls." ”

Xu Fengnian had already sat down at the table by himself, started directly, kept grabbing meat from the bowl to eat, and soon stuffed his mouthful.

Li Fei sat with his back to the door, and like Xu Fengnian, he twisted a piece of braised meat with his hand and put it in his mouth.

The old yellow face took three pairs of dishes and chopsticks, put them in front of several people, and moved his own dishes and chopsticks to him.

"Huh." Xu Xiao looked at Lao Huang and knocked on the side of his bowl.

Lao Huang reluctantly took out a pottery wine bottle from under the table, and poured a little wine into Xu Xiao's bowl.

When Xu Xiao saw it, the faint smile on his face immediately disappeared.

He snatched the bottle of wine angrily and poured himself a full bowl.

Lao Huang on the side said with a tangled face: "You pour slowly, don't waste it." ”

"Go, go, go...... What for? Drinking your wine is like killing you. ”

Xu Xiao complained strangely, and at the same time filled a bowl for Li Fei.

Li Fei was stuffing braised pork into his mouth with Xu Fengnian at this time, and when he saw Xu Xiao pouring him wine, he was busy snorting at him.

Xu Fengnian chewed the meat in his mouth and said vaguely: "Eat quickly, eat quickly, Lao Huang, this guy is fast, and he won't be able to eat a piece for a while." ”

"Hmm......" Li Fei nodded again and again while sandwiching the meat.

Seeing this, Xu Xiao rolled up his wide sleeves, picked up the chopsticks and went to pick up the meat.

Needless to say, Lao Huang quickly launched an attack on the braised pork in the bowl.

"Xu Xiao ......"

Xu Xiao had just picked up a piece of meat, and before he could put it in his mouth, Xu Fengnian suddenly opened his mouth and called his name.

Xu Xiao paused, looked at Xu Fengnian puzzled, and only listened to him: "In the past three years of travel, Lao Huang has been persuading me to practice martial arts, what do you mean?" ”

As he spoke, he took the piece of meat from Xu Xiao's chopsticks and put it in his mouth.

Facing his son's scrutinizing gaze, Xu Xiao suddenly didn't know what to say.

Xu Fengnian continued: "In the past three years, we have encountered a lot of trouble, how many of them were arranged by you?" ”

Xu Xiao showed an embarrassed smile on his face, and said without confidence: "Most of it is your own fault." ”

Li Fei looked at Xu Xiao with a dumb smile.

Most? It means that the small part was indeed arranged by him!

Xu Fengnian said noncommittally: "What do you mean?" Grind me? ”

Xu Xiao said seriously: "Traveling thousands of miles is better than reading thousands of books!" ”

After speaking, he raised his chopsticks to grab the meat, but was slapped away by Xu Fengnian's chopsticks.

"Lao Huang asked me to escape from the white fox face, because he wanted me to face the assassination alone, and you arranged it, right?"

Lao Huang looked at Li Fei opposite, and a wry smile flashed in his eyes.

He leaned towards Xu Xiao, and said weakly: "Young Master knows everything." ”

Xu Xiao glanced at him and said lightly, "Shut up." ”

Then his face became entangled again, and he persuaded him bitterly: "You see, you are so smart and scheming, you should naturally take over Beiliang." ”

Xu Fengnian said impatiently: "Don't say it's boring, eat meat." ”

"Oh." Xu Xiao's face returned to normal in a second, and he lifted the chopsticks and prepared to pick up the meat.

Who knew that Xu Fengnian suddenly said again: "Don't just eat meat, let's have a bar together!" ”

"Hey, hey...... Come ......" Xu Xiao looked like he was still talking, put down his chopsticks and picked up the wine bowl.

Who knew that Xu Fengnian didn't mean to serve the bowl at all, but instead accelerated the speed of sandwiching the meat, and Lao Huang was the same, the braised meat in the bowl disappeared at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The smile on Xu Xiao's face gradually stiffened, and then slowly faded.

Fortunately, Li Fei still knew how to get up, he put down his chopsticks, picked up the wine bowl, touched the wine bowl that Xu Xiao was frozen on the table, and said, "Respect the prince." ”

Xu Xiao glanced at him with great relief and walked with him.

When the two of them drank this sip of wine, the big bowl of meat had already bottomed out, and even the last piece of braised meat was torn in half by Xu Fengnian and Lao Huang, and one person ate half of it.

Xu Xiao silently reached out and grabbed a handful of peanuts from the plate, threw them into his mouth one by one, and glanced back and forth at the two of them with a stinky face.

Li Fei suddenly spoke: "Lao Huang, you are a martial arts master, right?" ”

Xu Fengnian and Lao Huang were both stunned, and Xu Xiao also turned his head to look at Li Fei.

Lao Huang looked left and right and smiled: "I'm just a horseman, what kind of martial arts master?" ”

The corners of Li Fei's mouth curved slightly, and Shi Shiran said, "Really?" Can you please explain why you were able to withstand the onslaught of my lullaby and recover from it in a trance? ”

Lao Huang just grinned, but didn't answer.

"Also, Xu Shao and I have walked the same distance as you, tired like a dead dog, but you are still in good spirits, and you don't feel tired at all."

Li Fei paused when he said this, then looked at him and said with a smile: "So I conclude that you have definitely learned martial arts, and you are at least a master above the third grade." ”

"Because even if you are a third-grade master, you have to be confused for a while to react when you hear a lullaby, but you are just in a trance."

"If I guess a little bolder, maybe you're a first-class grandmaster."

The room was deadly silent, Xu Fengnian turned his head and looked at the smiling old servant fixedly.
