In the courtyard, Liu Bei's eyes were sharp, and he happened to see Zhao Yun who originally wanted to come in, but retreated.

He smiled: "It seems that Ah Yun has not slept either, I just happened to have a heart-to-heart talk with him." ”

In the future, he will be a victorious general, he naturally has to talk about his heart, otherwise how to let him fall under the wings of their revival of the Han Dynasty?

Guan Yu, who was standing beside him, knew that this was his brother's thought of loving talent again. When he arrived in Zhuo County from Xie Liangchu, Liu Bei found him on the second day, and since then he has dragged him and those rangers to have a big banquet for three days and a small banquet a day.

Liu's mother and Liu Yan said that Liu Bei had been hanging out with the rangers all day long, and he was not doing his job, so he was not wronged.

Liu Bei returned to the house and took the blade, "Yun Chang will go with me." ”

Liu Bei has always been very careful, and every time he travels, he must carry a sword, and if possible, he must be accompanied by two or one of them.

As a traverser, he has already comprehended the essence of Gou Yizi.

When the two came to Zhao Yun's house, they found that he had a long sword hanging from his waist, and he was about to sneak out lightly, obviously not wanting to alarm Zhao Yi.

"Big brother, should we call him up?"

Liu Bei's curiosity was aroused, you must know that Zhao Yun in history was very stable, who would have thought that he would be like this when he was a teenager.

He smiled and shook his head, "No need, let's follow him quietly." ”

Zhao Yun first went to the stable to get a horse, and then opened the back door and slipped away quietly. Teenagers in the border areas learn to bow horses, and the boys near Changshan are naturally the same.

Liu Bei and the others took the horses and quietly embellished them behind Zhao Yun.

Today's Zhao Yun is still younger, and he is not the victorious general who rushes to kill seven in and seven out alone, and he has never noticed that he is behind him.

Liu Bei suddenly whispered: "Yun Chang, have you ever seen Bo Jue today?" ”

Guan Yu shook his head, "I haven't seen you, Gongsun Boqi has not shown up today since he was separated from us." But brother don't worry, Gongsun Zhan's skills are not bad, and the bow horse is even more vigorous, and there are not many people in this world who can make him suffer. ”

Zhao Yun, who was riding a horse in front, suddenly accelerated, and while they were not paying attention, he flashed into the nearby woods.

In the Han Dynasty, there were many forests in the wilderness, and the verdant trees were hidden in the middle. At the end of the Han Dynasty, there were many thieves, corrupt government, eunuchs, and family encroachment, which were naturally the main reasons. As long as you hide in the mountains or between the trees, it is extremely difficult to find, which is also one of the reasons for the frequent occurrence of thieves in the late Han Dynasty.

Zhao Yun rode his horse through the forest left and right, he was the best equestrian among the boys, and it seemed that he was born to gallop on horseback.

He rode through the woods and came to the back of a high slope.

Xia Houlan, who pretended to be a general during the day, was already waiting here, and seeing that Zhao Yun was late, Xia Houlan couldn't help but complain: "Ah Yun, you came too late, and you can only practice for a while today." ”

Zhao Yun dismounted. Remove the sword from your horse.

"You've made great progress these days, and if you keep practicing for a few more days, maybe your swordsmanship will be better than mine. Let's practice gunnery in a while. ”

Xia Houlan got up, picked up the saber on his side, and said with a wry smile: "Ah Yun, don't laugh, as long as I can practice your swordsmanship, even if my ancestor has a spirit." As for marksmanship? I can't even think that I can learn from you. ”

Although Zhao Yun is not very old, among the teenagers and rangers who play together on weekdays, his martial arts are the strongest. A dozen adult rangers may not be able to get close to him.

Xia Houlan devoted himself to practicing martial arts all day long, so he grinded Zhao Yun to accompany him to practice from time to time.

Although his swordsmanship has improved a lot compared to before, he knows that he is far inferior to Zhao Yun, and he has never even seen Zhao Yun go all out in the past.

Zhao Yun began to feed him the sword, and the two intersected with their long swords, Xia Houlan was able to deal with it at first, but then the long sword in his hand danced more and more scattered, and finally he threw the sword and lay on the ground panting.

Zhao Yun stood with a calm pestle sword on the side.

Xiahou Lan sighed, feeling weak, "Ah Yun, you mentioned that the master who taught you martial arts once said that he was not good at swordsmanship?" ”

Zhao Yun nodded, "Master said that when it comes to gunmanship, if he dares to call himself second, no one dares to call him first." It's just about swordsmanship, as long as there is one person in Luoyang, no one in the world dares to call it the first. ”

Xia Houlan gasped and said with a smile: "The old man is really modest. It seems that the person in Luoyang is not a simple person. ”

It turned out that Zhao Yun, the master, was not a native of Changshan, and he came to Changshan for some reason, and he fell in love with Zhao Yun's qualifications at a glance. For this reason, he stayed in Zhending for several years, specially to teach Zhao Yun martial arts.

Xia Houlan and Zhao Yun grew up together since childhood, and the relationship is very good, plus he is a cheeky person, in those years, he went to the old man all day long to "shh the cold and ask for warmth", and the old man couldn't stand his noise, so he passed on his archery skills.

It's just that his qualifications are too poor, according to the old man, no matter how Xia Houlan's archery skills are practiced in the future, at most he can only have one percent of his archery skills, and his archery skills have already been passed on, so Xia Houlan is not his official disciple.

Xia Houlan suddenly fell silent, "Ah Yun, do you think I should really give up studying martial arts and go to study?" That's all I have to offer. No matter how hard you try, you can't catch up with Ah Yun, and if you join the army in the future, I'm afraid you won't even be able to see your shadow on the battlefield. I'm most afraid that I'll drag you down when the time comes. ”

"It's just Ah Yun, I'm not reconciled."

Seeing that the gap between her playmate since childhood and herself is getting farther and farther away, how can Xia Houlan be willing?

Your brother is better off than you, but when it's better, you don't necessarily care. When it gets better, so good that you can only look at his back and look at each other from afar, can you still hope that your brother will live better from the bottom of your heart?

Xia Houlan can, and he believes that Zhao Yun can too.

He was just unwilling to accept that his ability couldn't support him, so he and Zhao Yun went on together.

Zhao Yun squatted down and said with a smile: "Alan, Master said that everyone has different qualifications, so there is no need to force it. You are qualified to read, and you only need to read the complicated rules and regulations to memorize them, but I am far inferior to you. It's better for you to concentrate on studying the law. So that you and I can walk together in the future. ”

"When the time comes, I will be the general, Alan will be my military leader, you and my brother will join forces, and we will definitely be able to win in the future."

Xia Houlan's eyes lit up, "Ah Yun, what you said is reasonable." In the future, our brothers will definitely be able to form a strong army, and when the time comes, you will be able to win a hundred battles, and Ayun, you will definitely be able to be a victorious general. ”

Xia Houlan was about to say something more, but suddenly heard the sound of horses' hooves on the other side of the high slope.

The sound of horses' hooves came from far and near, and soon came beyond the high slope where they were.

The roar of men and horses was loud and noisy.

Someone shouted, "Chase, don't go away from the one on the white horse." ”
