Li Zhen and others got more than 30 good horses left by the horse bandits, and then sold them to the Sogdian caravan, which was grateful to them for saving them, and bought horses at a high price.

Not only that, the caravan leader Saiba was very grateful for his life-saving grace, solemnly took out an ivory card and handed it to Li Zhen and said: "This is the peace charm of our caravan, only the big caravan with more than a thousand camels has it, and it has the name of the caravan and me on it, please accept it!"

Li Zhen took the ivory card, and saw that it was like a crescent moon with very exquisite workmanship, so he asked with a smile, "What is it used for?"

Seba laughed, "We Sogdian merchants also call it the Thanksgiving Card, and if you hold this peace charm, the Sogdian merchants anywhere will try their best to solve your difficulties for you, which is also a unique way for us Sogdians to repay your kindness." ”

Li Zhen was startled, and hurriedly returned it to him, "Thank you, uncle, but I can't accept it!"

Next to Conwood stuffed the ivory card to him again, "There is only one peace charm caravan, and it will never be taken out lightly, let alone given to people, this is the caravan's intention, you accept it!"

Li Zhen had no choice but to thank them for their kindness, put away the peace charm, and said goodbye to the caravan.

After seeing off Conwood and the other Sogdian merchants, Li Zhen and the others immediately turned around and continued southward, and along the way everyone talked happily, especially the three beautiful young ladies who accompanied them, and also relieved many of the fatigue of the journey.

"Does Brother Li know how to play polo?" Pei Jing'er asked curiously.

"Okay! ”

Pei Jing clapped his hands with joy, "I like to watch polo games the most, and when I stop, Brother Li wants to teach me!"

Li Zhen couldn't help but smile bitterly, coming out early in the morning, this Pei Jing'er entangled herself like a little yellow finch, and asked him east and west, I don't know where she came from so many words?

Pei Jing'er is only thirteen years old, with a delicate face and a lively nature, she is deeply loved by her brother, and she has been taking her with her for the past two years, and she has also seen a lot of the world.

"Brother Li, guess what I'm best at?"

"I can't guess. ”

"Sue you, I'm the best at throwing knives. ”

"Oh, the fat brother in the back is also good, do you want to communicate with him?"

Pei Jing'er glanced at Jiuzhi, obviously not interested, and she giggled again: "When performing a hundred operas in the palace, I covered my eyes with a scarf, and my brother used me as a target, which scared the female emperor into screaming. ”

Li Zhen's heart moved, and he asked with a silent smile: "Are you performing a hundred operas in the palace?"

Pei Jing'er was so frightened that she covered her small mouth, she now said that she had opened her mouth, a pair of flexible big eyes turned around, and said with a smile: "It's normal for a hundred operas to enter the palace! My brother's swordsmanship is so high, the female emperor likes him very much." ”

"Then why are you going to the Western Regions?"

Pei Jing'er sighed, "It's not forced yet! Otherwise, who would want to go to the Western Regions." ”

Li Zhen became even more curious in his heart, and asked with a smile: "Who persecuted you, the female emperor?"

"Of course not, but I can't say that if I talk too much, my brother will beat me. ”

Li Zhen laughed, "Then let's talk about your brother's swordsmanship! ”

"The year before last we met bandits robbing the market in Chenzhou, my brother had a sword and a sword, more than 100 bandits were killed by him, in addition to a big harm in the place, the local people kowtowed to us and were grateful, and last year my brother was recruited into the army in the capital, and more than 20 generals in the army were defeated by him, and several generals did not dare to accept him from the army, and respectfully sent him out of the barracks. ”

Li Zhen listened leisurely and yearning, one person and one sword, killing invincible opponents all over the barracks, what a spectacular scene

That night, everyone was stationed at the southern foot of Kongtong Mountain, Li Zhen was building a camp with everyone, Pei Min walked behind him slowly with his hand and said with a smile: "Can you delay the time of the virtuous brother?"

Li Zhen stood up, "Big brother is looking for me?"

"Bring your bow and arrows, and we'll go over there and talk!"

On the way, Pei Min heard Jiuzhi say that Wang Xiaojie praised Li Zhen for riding and archery, and gave him a letter of recommendation, he also had a little curiosity, even Wang Xiaojie was full of praise for people, what kind of Cheng dù will be so powerful in riding and shooting?

Pei Min also wanted to practice riding and archery, but he had no famous teacher, and if Li Zhen could help him, it would be a good thing.

"I heard from the wine brother that the virtuous brother's riding and shooting was praised by General Wang, can you let the eldest brother also see it?"

"The eldest brother has an order, but the younger brother can't obey!"

Li Zhen smiled slightly, held the bow in his hand, galloped on the horse, and in the running, he drew an arrow, barely looked back, controlled the horse with both legs, and turned around to shoot an arrow.

The arrow was like a shadow floating in the light, and it was so swift that a terrible wail from the sky was heard, and a harrier that flew by was shot through the head by an arrow and fell from the sky.

"Good archery!"

Pei Min applauded heartily, he is a top master, and he can see the gold content of Li Zhen's arrow, this arrow does not lie in the cleverness and precision of the archery itself, but in the mastery of timing, the harrier is high in the sky, and the opportunity is fleeting, especially Li Zhen's back to the harrier, which is even more commendable.

Li Zhen urged the horse back, hugged his fists and smiled: "The little brother is ugly!"

"I'm a little strange, you have your back to the harrier, how do you know when it's diving?"

Li Zhen said lightly: "I know a lot of archers, they have also practiced hard since childhood, shooting copper coins in the day and incense in the night, which can be called ten years of grinding an arrow, and the accuracy of archery is no less than mine, but they can't achieve anything in riding and archery like me, why is this?"

A flash of brightness flashed in Pei Min's eyes, "Go on!"

"The key is that the arrow is a dead arrow, but the target is alive, the situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly, no one will stand there for us to shoot, we must always grasp the dynamic timing, and the arrow is decisive in order to seize the subtle fighter.

For example, the harrier just now, I saw it when I set up the tent, I knew that it was foraging, and the left wing was slightly injured, this injured harrier is extremely vigilant, will not hover at low altitude, will only see the target to dive and strike, and then fly high, so the timing is at the moment of its dive, grasp it, it will not escape the arrow hit. ”

Pei Min nodded again and again, he actually had a sense of cheerfulness, riding archery and swordsmanship were completely figured out, anticipating the enemy first, he leaned over and picked up the harrier, and saw that it really had an old wound on its left wing.

Pei Min laughed, gave a thumbs up and praised: "Sure enough, it is a clever archery, and the foolish brother has comprehended it." ”

Li Zhen handed him the bow and arrow and said with a smile: "Brother wants to shoot an arrow?"

"No! No, I want to ponder the words of the virtuous brother again, and then start from the basics, if I can achieve something in riding and archery in three years, it will all be thanks to the virtuous brother. ”

"The eldest brother has won the award, and the younger brother is just a few words from Meng Lang. ”

Pei Min said solemnly: "The real master is not in the hard work, but in the comprehension, one word and one word, you can comprehend the elite, I will only accompany you for ten days, if within ten days, you still can't comprehend the essence of swordsmanship, then I will advise you not to use the sword." ”

Li Zhen nodded silently, "The little brother has been taught!"

"Come on, draw your sword. ”

Pei Min retreated more than a dozen steps in a row, held the sword in his hand, and shouted: "You attack eighty-one swords at me in a row, and you are not allowed to stop halfway!"

Three days later, the group arrived in Zhangye, where Kang Dazhuang met his parents who had just opened a store, and the family reunion had some fun.

Jiu Zhi and Xiao Xi also joined Pei Min's sword teaching class, but Pei Min was completely different from Li Zhen from their professor, and each taught them several sets of clever swordsmanship.

It's not that Pei Min favors one over the other, but Li Zhen has a different understanding from theirs, Li Zhen has a very high level of understanding, he can integrate the art of riding and archery and swordsmanship, he can learn the real swordsmanship, Pei Min is also amazed by his talent and teaches him everything.

In the afternoon, Li Zhen sat cross-legged alone in a spacious room, silently comprehending the sword intent taught by Pei Min in his heart, his arm strength and physical toughness were good enough, his reaction and observation were also superior, and his riding and archery could be practiced to the realm of Dazhen, so that he did not need to lay a foundation to practice swordsmanship.

At this time, a fly buzzed and flew through the room, a cold light split out, and then suddenly retracted, the fly had become two halves and landed, even Li Zhen himself was stunned, three days ago, he couldn't do this sword at all, and now his sword has become so fast and so accurate that he actually found the feeling of riding and shooting.

Li Zhen gently stroked the long sword, he had already understood what Pei Min said, the master learning the sword is not in hard practice, but in comprehension, in just three days, his swordsmanship has improved to the gods, and he has a feeling of dreaming.

At this time, a sweet and crisp voice sounded at the door, "Brother Li, can I come in?"

It was Pei Jing'er's voice, Li Zhen nodded and smiled: "Come in!"

Although Pei Jinger always chirps around him like a little yellow finch, he also likes her lively and cute, and it's really good to have such a sister.

Pei Jing'er came in with a food plate, "Brother Li, it's time to eat!"

"Thank you, Qin'er!" Li Zhen was really a little hungry, picked up the bowl and ate, and asked, "What about your eldest brother?"

"He's also practicing the riding and archery you taught him!"

Pei Jing'er pursed her mouth slightly, and said a little unhappily: "Brother Li doesn't look at the newly bought skirts of others. ”

Li Zhen noticed her dress at this time, she was still wearing a double-ring moon bun, but her dress had changed, wearing a thin white spring shirt inside, and a bright yellow long skirt outside, the skirt knot was tied under her armpits, and her arms were wrapped with slender red silks, which looked particularly slender and pretty.

Seeing that Li Zhen was paying attention to herself, she got up and spun around again, and the satin red silk fluttered in the wind.

"Yes, it's beautiful!" Li Zhen praised.

"Really, aren't you coaxing me!" Pei Jing'er was a little incredulous, and looked at him with a pair of big eyes.

"Of course it's true, when did Brother Li coax you?"

Brother Li promised me to go shopping, but like the eldest brother, I couldn't find the shadow, and the little brother took me there. ”

"Hehe, Brother Li wants to practice swords, I will definitely take you there in the future, by the way, what did Brother Xiao Xiao buy for you?"

Li Zhen hurriedly diverted the topic, Pei Jing'er's eyes lit up, she took out a gold hairpin inlaid with gems, carefully inserted it on the show, and suddenly it was dazzling, she smiled and said: "This is what the little brother bought for me, is it good-looking?"

"Good looking, perfect for you. ”

Pei Jing'er didn't know what to think, she was deflated again, took off the golden hairpin and put it in the box, and said a little unhappily: "It's a pity that Brother Li didn't buy it for me, otherwise, I would have worn it every day." ”

Li Zhen also felt a little too much to say, so he smiled and said, "Don't worry, Brother Li will definitely give you a gift to ensure that you like it." ”

Pei Jing'er jumped up with joy, pulled his arm and said, "Words count, don't cheat!"

"This time I must be the talker. ”

Pei Jing'er was in a better mood again, Li Zhen finished eating, but she didn't want to leave, so she searched for various topics and chatted with him, at this time Pei Jing'er thought of a good topic, and smiled mysteriously: "Brother Li, guess, what is my brother's swordsmanship in the world?"
