Under the bright sun, the shouting shopkeepers kept boasting about their own food and drink, the hawkers smiled at every passer-by, and the woman carrying the vegetable basket had been grinding the old man for a penny for the difference in price.

This is a county town that is not famous, the name is Changxing, the bustling crowd on the street is full of lively two words, even the palace has never been out of the princess, has long been attracted by this noisy street market.

Along the way, every thing that seemed ordinary to Lu Hanjiang was like a new corner of the stage in the eyes of Princess Yongle, dazzling and interesting.

There are only the two of them as companions on this trip, Chi Cangping did not go with Lu Hanjiang, this kid may not be able to hold back the mood of making trouble, like a flying pig on the tuyere, and he can't wait to fly to Hengshan in one day.

Having said that, this is the first foothold after they leave the capital, and it is already rare for the princess to be able to get rid of the palace maid who serves to take care of herself, and let her travel in the carriage for days and days, even if it is too demanding for her.

So just passing by here, Lu Hanjiang stopped and rested for a day before leaving, and at the same time, in order not to be too tired for the next journey, he did need some silver.

If you want to talk about it, Lu Hanjiang actually has a silver ticket on him, and he doesn't know if it's the old money unpredictable prophet, or if he knows his own character too well, the old housekeeper prepared a silver ticket in his luggage in advance that was enough for him to spend all the way.

But Princess Yongle was skeptical that he could get money in the name of "Wudang disciple", so Lu Hanjiang also planned to show him a hand, and even this time, he didn't plan to move out of this name.

The two walked aimlessly on the road, and the gongs and drums hooked Yongle's attention, and she and Lu Hanjiang followed the prestige, and it was a group of men in short clothes who set up a ring, led by a middle-aged man with a square face and thick eyebrows.

"Fellow villagers, fathers and elders, today my Changsheng Martial Arts Hall officially opened its doors to accept apprentices, Chu has just arrived, and I would like to ask you for more advice!"

The man's words were sonorous and powerful, and the crowd below applauded repeatedly, and Yongle also tiptoed outside the crowd to look inside.

Seeing that she was full of interest, Lu Hanjiang explained: "According to the rules of the rivers and lakes, the opening of the hall has to set up the ring, no matter who comes to the stage to challenge, they have to play three rounds to count, this is a dragon or a worm, you have to give people insight." ”

Sure enough, as Lu Hanjiang said, after the man surnamed Chu finished speaking, someone in the crowd immediately responded, only to see a bearded man with a hammer on his back jumped onto the stage, and Kong Wu's powerful arms danced the hammer the size of a human head, causing the audience to exclaim.

"What a winning martial arts hall, what a big breath, Master Chu, if you have any martial arts, just show your hand, let a certain family come and learn it."

"Please."

Everyone else in the ring stepped aside and gave up the place to these two people, the man surnamed Chu put on a posture with his bare hands, and the man who made the hammer shouted and picked up the sledgehammer to attack, and the two fought together, and the action of opening and closing made the people in the audience look at it with great joy.

Yongle also saw the brilliance in her eyes, and saw that the sledgehammer smashed the wooden platform into a pit in one go, and she couldn't help asking: "If the master who opened the martial arts hall hasn't fought in the ring, what should it be?" ”

"Don't worry," Lu Hanjiang glanced at the two people on the stage, and said with a chuckle: "Since this master dares to open a martial arts gym in this county, it is natural that all peers from all parties have greeted him, don't look at the man's words, I can't say that the two are still friends, and those who will go up to the ring will be foils, in order to make this martial arts hall appear, just go through the motions." ”

"That's right."

Lu Hanjiang ruthlessly uncovered the truth of this ring competition, and Yongle seemed a little disappointed, but she was soon attracted by the fist-punching fight.

"So, how about the martial arts of the two of them? Can you be considered a first-class master? ”

“......”

This question really stumped Lu Hanjiang, from his point of view, at most, he could only see that the level of these two people was half a catty and eight taels in comparison, as for which line their level was above, it was difficult to say.

Because no one is really bored enough to subdivide the reckless man who doesn't enter the stream into a few stages, so he really can't answer this for a while.

To be honest, these two men feeding each other are not as good as the barbarian wrestling, and he feels spicy eyes when he looks at them more, but since Yongle is interested, he also pinched his nose and looked at it twice.

"I don't know how the martial arts of these two people are put on the rivers and lakes, but if they are put in the capital, they are probably the level of ordinary people's nursing homes."

Lu Hanjiang pointed to the man who kept screaming on the stage and said: "Look at the one that uses a hammer, a type of wind hammer makes it grinding, for fear of hitting people, this makes the martial arts master dodge, hey, good opportunity, the black tiger digs out his heart, tsk, it's a pity, this style of fighting is boring, the lake makes people." ”

Although Yongle didn't understand any of those moves, he listened to them with relish.

As Lu Hanjiang's voice fell, the man who made the hammer was also repelled by Master Chu of the Martial Arts Hall, sweating profusely and panting, most of them were tired from picking the hammer.

"Master Chu, good kung fu!"

"Concession."

The two hugged each other's fists, even if this competition was a winner, most of the people in the audience were ordinary people who didn't know martial arts, but it was precisely because of this that they were extremely enjoyable to watch, and the applause was loud.

This one went down, didn't let everyone wait for a long time, and another one came to the stage, this time it was a lean man with a gun, standing straight like a green pine, stabbing out a gun like a fisherman piercing water, the strength is enough, but there is nothing to see, and the flat and straightforward action makes people sleepy.

Seeing Yongle casting a curious gaze again, Lu Hanjiang sighed and said: "This person's marksmanship is nondescript, I'm afraid it wasn't copied from that Taizu's stick method, if the martial arts master uses some strength, the winner should be determined in ten rounds." ”

It's a pity that the nature of this martial arts performance is overwhelming, so the two people on the stage fought for nearly a hundred rounds before the lean man was defeated, and Master Chu of the martial arts hall was also sweating, took a towel and wiped his face, and ushered in the last challenger.

The man carrying the three-ring knife looked arrogant, and when he jumped on the stage, he was full of big words, and Master Chu didn't say much, and an old fist rushed straight to kick off, and the two of them fought back and forth.

Lu Hanjiang pursed his lips and said: "This makes the foundation of the knife seem to be good, but unfortunately I don't know the essentials, I only know how to make brute force to be fierce, it is not difficult for Master Chu to defeat him, but he himself has fought twice in a row, and it is not certain to say that the victory or defeat is not certain, but since it is a competition in the ring...... The result was doomed. ”

At this time, there were already many people around who transferred the transfer from the stage to Lu Hanjiang, he spoke in a loud voice, commented on three competitions in a row, and said the truth, with a condescending disdain between his words, which made everyone care very much.

"This son, dare to ask what to call it?"

"Since Childe can tell the number of martial arts of these people, presumably the martial arts are also extraordinary, why not go on stage to have a competition?"

"Yes, why don't you come to the stage and let me wait to see the world?"

Some watched the excitement, some were curious, and some expressed disdain for his young age and frivolous words.

Lu Hanjiang did not respond, but left the crowd with Yongle, a move that immediately caused some people to laugh.

"It turned out to be a showcase."

Hearing that many people behind her began to belittle Lu Hanjiang openly and secretly, Yongle was a little angry, she raised her head, and her tone was a little sullen: "Since you are a Jinyi guard and your martial arts are very high, why don't you go on stage to show your hands, so that those people can shut up." ”

"If you want to earn money in the rivers and lakes, you rely on here, not this," Lu Hanjiang pointed to his head and raised his fist again: "If it's more ruthless than fighting fiercely, wouldn't it be faster to directly block the road and rob?" You just watch patiently. ”

Lu Hanjiang and Yongle left the ring of the martial arts hall, found a teahouse and went up to the clean second floor to rest, and after a while, three young people dressed in rich clothes came uninvited.
