Chapter 44 Terms of Peace

Gu Shengchao was afraid that the other party would see through his thoughts, so he moved his shoulders: "Since I am the first warrior of Beihu, I will compete with you today, we only try to use knives and guns in kung fu, how about it?" ”

Xian Yu Tiezheng had this intention, and he also knew that Gu Shengchao was here to find fault, but when the two met in Pingshui, there was no need for a life-and-death competition. He half-squatted and tied his horse, clapped his hands together and put them on his knees: "Okay, come on!" ”

Gu Shengchao felt that Xian Yu Tie's starting style was funny, and remembered people's evaluation of Hu Ren, that is, he was strong and good at wrestling, and his riding and archery kung fu was outstanding. He didn't dare to be careless, and stepped forward and swung his right palm towards Xian Yu's iron neck. Xian Yutie did not dodge, he directly stretched out his arms to parry, his parrying posture was also unique, one hand was hidden behind his arm, ready to grab Gu Shengchao's wrist at any time. Gu Shengchao closed his right palm in time, and his left palm went up, hitting the face door that was fresh in iron. Xian Yutie was not in a hurry, his arms were pressed down, and he also had a hand hidden behind his back, ready to grasp.

This time, Gu Shengchao didn't close his palm, his left palm continued to rise, and his right palm turned into a fist and smashed downward, hitting up and down to see how Xian Yutie responded.

Xian Yu Tie saw Gu Shengchao attacking up and down at the same time, he separated his arms to block, but he hooked both hands, as long as he touched Gu Shengchao's arms, he would be able to grab them with his backhand. Gu Shengchao didn't entangle with him, took two steps back, and waited for an opportunity to attack again.

Gu Shengchao slowly circled Xian Yu Tie, observing as he walked, he waved his left palm and shook a move, raising his right foot to kick Xian Yu Tie's calf. Xian Yu Tie looked at the six roads, and also raised his legs to block, the two legs knocked together, Xian Yu Tie looked thick but flexible, his toes were picked back, just hooked at Gu Shengchao's ankle, Gu Shengchao suddenly felt bad.

Under normal conditions, two people compete, and if one blow fails, they will inevitably retract the move at the same time to prepare for the next move. But Xian Yutie's moves are too strange, the ultimate goal of each move is to be entangled with the other party, but the burly figure always has to fight hand-to-hand, unlike in the Dawu Dynasty, such a body type must be based on strength, using brute force to control the enemy to death.

Gu Shengchao's ankle was entangled, and his whole body involuntarily approached Xian Yutie's side. He simply took advantage of his strength to rise into the air, and stepped his left foot on his left shoulder. Xian Yutie stretched out his hand to grab it, Gu Shengchao had already taken off and turned, and went around Xian Yutie's back left palm and cut horizontally, slashing towards the back of his neck. Xian Yu's iron shoulders and waist are not inferior at all, and when he heard the wind in his ears, he raised his left foot sideways to avoid Gu Shengchao's attack, and he still opened a pair of big hands to grab Gu Shengchao in mid-air. Gu Shengchao didn't dare to make a direct move, so he turned around lightly and dodged.

Xian Yu Iron's moves are rare, making it difficult for Gu Shengchao to adapt to it, and he can't find where his weaknesses are. Having the heart to try the true strength of the Five Souls Array, this thought flashed in his mind and gave up, after all, it was not a life-and-death struggle, and there was no need to expose it in front of everyone.

Gu Shengchao remembered that the pushing hand in the foundation of martial arts was the close proximity of two people, whose wrists and arms were always glued together with each other, and the victory or defeat was determined by foot movement and reasonable force of hands, arms, shoulders, waist, and body. The moves that are fresh in iron and the pusher have the same effect, and they are better than the blue out of the blue, plus the unique moves of the Hu people, which makes people unguardable.

Seeing that Gu Shengchao didn't dare to step forward, the onlookers cheered and booed.

Gu Shengchao had the heart to compete with Xian Yu Tie, he still simply pushed out one palm, and Xian Yu Tie raised his arm to resist the other hand and hid it behind his back. Xian Yutie was ready for the other party's move, but Gu Shengchao's palm was honestly chopped over, Xian Yutie was overjoyed, and he was about to grab Gu Shengchao's wrist when he blocked the other hand with his arm. Gu Shengchao's other hand quickly pasted it, sticking to Xian Yu's iron wrist.

Xian Yutie was a little surprised, he repeatedly grabbed Gu Shengchao with his left and right hands, but Gu Shengchao was blocked, not only did he not take advantage, but also let Gu Shengchao take the initiative to suppress him closely. Xian Yutie was in a hurry, and he didn't get rid of it after taking a few steps back, his arms seemed to be trapped, and he couldn't use his strength.

Gu Shengchao couldn't help but be proud when he got the upper hand, he made a stumbling block under his feet, seeing that Xian Yu Tie was about to fall down, he didn't think that Xian Yu Tie had one leg around his hips, and the two fell backwards together. Although Gu Shengchao pressed on Xian Yutie's body, he did not take advantage of it in the slightest, and the two of them were wrapped around their arms, and neither of them could catch each other. Xian Yutie let out a loud shout, and his arms actually shook the ancient saint into the air.

The ancient saint is as light as a swallow, and it falls steadily on the eaves of the inn.

"I lost." Rarely in the iron arch to admit defeat.

"Concession." Gu Shengchao jumped down and said truthfully: "Brother Tie's internal strength is strong, I'm afraid of hurting me, and my fist and foot kung fu are so magical that I can't guard against it, but Brother Tie won." ”

Xian Yutie took Gu Shengchao's hand and laughed: "Little brother is polite, your internal strength is not bad, why don't you use it, go, I have wine there, and I will rest when I get drunk today." ”

Gu Shengchao had a heart-to-heart relationship, and entered the guest room with Xian Yu Tie.

The rooms are spacious, and there are no beds, desks, chairs, or other furnishings. The two sat opposite each other on the ground, Gu Shengchao announced his name, and someone spread a piece of sheepskin between them, and all kinds of jerky and cheese were randomly piled on it.

"Come, let's drink together." Xian Yutie beckoned, everyone sat down, someone brought a silver bowl, and poured wine for everyone.

Gu Shengchao learned from them, dipped the ring finger of his left hand in the wine and flicked it upwards three times, and then drank it all. Xian Yutie was sincerely happy when he saw it, and greeted: "We didn't prepare anything when we came from afar, and the Shengchao brothers will be on the way." ”

"Brother Tie is polite, I should have invited everyone as a landlord, but the situation is compelling, and I will ask you to appreciate it another day." Gu Shengchao stretched out his hand and pinched a piece of jerky and put it in his mouth, the jerky was hard in his mouth, and he chewed it slowly, and the more he chewed, the more fragrant it became.

Xian Yutie saluted Gu Shengchao with a bowl of wine: "Brother Shengchao came to me today, I'm afraid it's for the Nine Emperors and Manager Wen, right?" I don't know which side you're on, let's take a look. ”

Gu Shengchao knew that they were bold, but it was rare for them to speak so directly. He smiled and said: "The Nine Emperor Princes heard that Big Brother Tie and his entourage came to the capital, and they are going to pick up the wind and wash the dust for you. The etiquette is not good, and the big brother Haihan is looking at the iron. Gu Shengchao picked up the silver bowl and returned the salute with a bowl of wine.

Xian Yutie didn't expect Gu Shengchao to be so straightforward, he looked at Gu Shengchao and said, "In that case, what do you need us to do?" ”

"Don't do anything." Gu Shengchao replied.

Xian Yutie was stunned for a moment and said, "What good do we have?" ”

"Nothing?" Gu Shengchao affirmed.

Xian Yutie pinched a piece of cheese and put it in his mouth: "You have a saying: People die for money, birds die for food, we didn't get any benefits from coming from afar, and we can't explain to the above when we go back!" ”

Gu Shengchao shook his head: "No, you will gain more." ”

Xian Yutie remained silent: "How to say? ”

Gu Shengchao picked up the silver bowl and took a sip of wine and said, "First of all, no matter what kind of promise Mr. Wen gave you, think about it, will his promises be fulfilled by the counties and counties?" He coerced the Son of Heaven to order the princes to succeed for the time being, once defeated and died without a place to be buried, how can a person who cannot protect himself win the trust of others. The Nine Emperors are different, they are young and well-aware of the righteousness, and once they ascend to the throne, they must be the Ninety-Five, and they must do what they call and order. My Dawu Dynasty and Beihu have been at odds all year round, and it is inevitable that they will see each other in the autumn harvest season, and Brother Tie also knows what the reason is, right? ”

Xian Yutie pinched up a piece of dried meat and turned it in his hand: "I have wind and sand in summer and heavy snowfall in winter, I live by water and grass, and there is a famine when I rely on the sky to eat, so I have no choice but to go south to grab some food to satisfy my hunger." ”

Gu Shengchao sighed: "Yes, as far as I know, there are vast grasslands and countless cattle and sheep in the north, and there are many exotic flowers and herbs that can be used for medicine. However, cattle and sheep are not easy to preserve after slaughtering, they can only be dried into dried meat, and cattle and sheep are also plagued by diseases. No matter how much land is acquired, this kind of disaster cannot be avoided. If the cattle and sheep of Beihu and the grain and tea of our Dawu Dynasty can be properly exchanged, and each takes what he needs, it will solve the problem and avoid the sword and soldier from meeting each other. ”

"Oh." Xian Yutie was interested: "How to exchange?" ”

"The market can be opened." Gu Shengchao preached according to the plan told by the prince: "Open up markets in places with convenient transportation in the two countries, trade within a fixed time, the people get benefits, and the two countries still have taxes to fill the treasury, why not kill two birds with one stone." ”

"That's right!" Xian Yutie slapped his thigh violently, and said happily: "Every time you have an autumn harvest, my Beihu cattle and sheep are fat, and I exchange cattle and sheep for food, so why fight and kill." Moreover, in the cold winter, the grassland is covered with snow, and countless cattle and sheep often die of freezing and starvation, and they are replaced by grain preservation, which is not just the right solution to this problem. He held Gu Shengchao's hand: "Where are you Nine Emperor Princes, I want to go to see him?" ”

Gu Shengchao remembered that the prince was going to the Wuwang Palace today, so he said: "I'm afraid I don't have time today, I will definitely tell you when I go back, so that the Nine Emperors can understand the sincerity of Brother Tie." ”

"Come, drink." Xian Yutie was happy, raised his glass and drank with everyone.

The Beihu people drink well, this wine has been drunk for two hours, and three of them have already fallen down, and Xian Yu Tie is also a little superior. Gu Shengchao had long been unable to drink alcohol, but fortunately, his internal strength was strong enough to force some of the wine into the dantian five soul array, otherwise he would not be able to get drunk. He blushed and had a thick neck, and staggered downstairs, a carriage was parked outside the inn, and he was relieved to see that the coachman was Second Brother Lu.

Second Brother Lu is the one who deliberately made trouble when Gu Shengchao first came to the capital and Qi Tianzeng, the young owner of the Worry-Free Dart Bureau, when he was chasing the secret agent at night.

"Brother Fan is worried about you, so he told me to wait here for you." Second Brother Lu waited for Gu Shengchao to get into the car and said in a low voice.

Gu Shengchao was grateful: "Thank you, Second Brother Lu." ”

Back at the Gaosheng Inn, Gu Shengchao found a wooden barrel to force out all the wine with internal force, and then went to see Fan Lixin.
