After Guan Ping went up the mountain, Guan Yu spent more and more time reading at night, and it was the fifth watch of the day.

Zhou Cang couldn't stand it on the side, so he stepped forward and reminded: "Junhou, it's almost dawn, go and rest early!" ”

"Oh!" Guan Yu opened Danfeng's eyes, put down the book and looked out of the tent, but did not get up.

Zhou Cang persuaded: "Don't worry, the eldest prince will be safe and sound when he goes up the mountain." ”

Guan Yu raised his eyebrows: "Reading Huainanzi one night, I just have occasional feelings, what does it have to do with Ping'er?" ”

Zhou Cang couldn't help but say: "The prince is worried about the eldest prince, and he can't sleep at night, and even I can see it." ”

"Hmph, eventful!" Guan Yu got up in his clothes and stroked his beard and said: "Guan Ping is ordered to travel, he is the same as other soldiers, blessings and misfortunes, life and death, there is a destiny, why bother?" ”

Zhou Cang smiled, stepped forward to help Guan Yu and prepared to sleep, but was gently pushed away by Guan Yu, and said dissatisfiedly: "A certain is not old yet." ”

Back in the camp, the east was already gradually brightening, and he had just taken off his shirt and towel and was about to wash, but he saw Zhou Cang walking in quickly: "There is a letter from the mountain." ”

"Hurry up!" Guan Yu didn't care about tidying up his beard, so he took the letter and opened it to read.

After a hurried browsing, Danfeng's eyes were exposed, and he shouted: "Thief An dares to bully my son? ”

As soon as he took the clothes from the shelf, he walked out with a tiger step, and instructed Zhou Cang: "Prepare the horse!" ”

Guan Yu opened the curtain, a cold wind blew, his hair flew, he suddenly shook his body, calmed down again, slowly lowered the curtain, turned around and lay on the bed, and ordered: "I'm going to rest, you retreat!" ”

"Huh?" Zhou Cang was still stunned and didn't react, seeing Guan Yu lying with his back facing outward, he withdrew from the tent inexplicably.

Guan Yu lay on his side on the bed, reopened the letter, read it carefully in the dim morning light, and muttered: "Once Zhang Yan has descended, he will be able to protect Ping'er." ”

Guan Ping was discussing with Zhang Yan on the mountain at this time about the formation of soldiers and horses, and if Huasuo did not change his life after three days, he tried his best to persuade some people to go down the mountain, and the rest were left to fend for themselves.

Early in the morning of the third day, everyone waited in the Juyi Hall, but they did not see Yang Feng and the others coming.

Zhang Yan said with a smile: "Yang Feng sent his son down the mountain, he must have invited another master, and he has not returned yet, I am afraid that this trip will not succeed, and see what excuse his father and son have." ”

Zhang Fang sneered: "People in the green forest, who is not in awe of General Guan's loyalty? The father and son of the Yang family don't know the current affairs, and they still want to ask someone to help in the war, I think who dares to make a move in this Hebei group? ”

When he was discussing, he saw Yang Feng striding with a group of people, and he didn't enter the hall when he arrived at the door, so he hugged his fists and said: "General Guan really has faith, I will wait for a brother to move from the cottage, and then divide the victory and defeat." ”

Guan Ping looked immovable, got up and hugged his fists and said, "Please!" ”

Zhang Yan frowned slightly, walked out with Guan Ping, and said in a low voice: "The little general can't be careless." ”

Everyone came to the door, the spring sun was shining, and they saw half a circle of people in the square, Yang Kui was dusty, but there was a smug smile on the corner of his mouth.

Beside him, there stood a young man with a white complexion, wearing a lilac brocade robe, with a three-finger-wide green dragon belt around his waist, lining his figure more and more slender, with wide shoulders and thin waist, and clear eyes, giving people a sense of shrewdness and ability.

Guan Ping looked up and saw that although the young man had white skin, he had red phoenix eyes and lying silkworm eyebrows, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, the demeanor between the young man's eyebrows was somewhat similar to that of the old father.

The young man was also looking at Guan Ping with his arms crossed, his eyebrows slightly provocative, a natural rebellious color, like a cheetah to provoke the other party.

Yang Kui stepped forward and said, "This is my junior brother Huasuo, he will go into battle in the second game, who of you will come?" ”

Guan Ping knows the importance of this battle, seeing that this person is imposing, he is a typical green forest hero, I am afraid that Hu Ban is not an opponent, and he immediately said: "It is up to the general to fight." ”

Hua Suo's head tilted slightly, and he lifted the cooked copper stick and hugged his fist and said: "In Xiaguan Suo, Your Excellency is Guan Ping, the son of the Marquis of Hanshou Pavilion?" ”

Guan Ping nodded slightly: "Father Guan Yunchang!" ”

The corners of Hua Suo's mouth twitched slightly, and he raised his stick across his chest, grinning and revealing two rows of white teeth: "I have admired the name for a long time, and I am about to learn the tricks." ”

Yang Kui said loudly behind him: "Senior brother, there is no need to be polite with him, let's do it!" ”|

"Please!" Guan Ping was also anxious to go back to recover his life, so he didn't say much, drew his sword and stepped forward.

I saw that the flower rope void turned the cooked copper stick, made a whining sound, turned into a piece of golden light, and smashed towards Guan Ping's head in the bursting sound.

The sword is light and agile, Guan Ping looks at the opponent's blade and knows that this person looks thin and weak, his strength is great, and he does not fight hard with him, he gives way sideways, and stabs the opponent with his backhand in the back of the heart.

The young man not only had a sharp move, but his body was very flexible, and he saw his wrist shake, and the stick shook back, and with a crisp clang, he opened the long sword.

"Good!" Yang Kui couldn't help but applaud when he saw such a pleasing move.

Zhang Yan frowned secretly on the side, as soon as this young man made a move, he saw that his martial arts were taught by experts, his moves were proficient, and he had an advantage in the blade, and he didn't know if Guan Ping could deal with it.

Guan Ping fought with the other party for more than ten times, has been in the dodge defense, and was secretly shocked in his heart, although his swordsmanship is not as good as the knife technique, but it is also taught by Guan Yu himself.

Later, when he was in Xiangyang, Liu Qi worshipped the sword master Wang Yue as a teacher, and he also watched and consulted, and benefited a lot.

The two fought for twenty or thirty times, wandering around the field to make moves, from time to time there was a sound of weapons colliding, Hua Suo saw that he couldn't take the other party for a long time, he was young and vigorous, a little anxious, and roared: "Be careful!" ”

Hearing a click, the cooked copper stick stretched out from the middle and became two feet long, turning into a long stick, dancing with both hands, and swept towards Guan Ping.

Guan Ping hurriedly jumped up to dodge, the copper stick bounced up like a spirit snake, and hit Guan Ping's waist, this time the change was extremely fast, people could not dodge in the air, Guan Ping had to grit his teeth and raise his sword to block.

When—

With a crisp sound, Guan Ping landed on the ground and took a few steps back before he could barely stand firm, and the sword in his hand shook violently, making a dragon-like hum.

"Well done!" Yang Kui shouted excitedly, his hands against one hand, and the copper stick had the upper hand against the sword.

Hua Suo was unforgiving, and hurriedly stepped forward, like a spear, and stabbed Guan Ping in the chest.

This kind of move is extremely common on the battlefield, Guan Ping is even more battle-hardened, retreated half a step back, the head of the stick rubbed his chest, reached out and firmly grasped one end, and the sword in the other hand was raised, just on the opponent's neck.

The momentum of the flower rope rushing forward came to an abrupt halt, and he froze there and did not dare to move, and everyone in the field stared wide-eyed.

"You've lost!" Guan Ping put away his sword and let go of the copper stick, and the place in his hand was full of shiny sweat.

"No way, it's absolutely impossible!" Yang Kuizheng clapped his hands and applauded, and when he saw this, he immediately waved his arms and roared.
