Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Contest

"Please don't hesitate to give me advice."

Fang Huai bowed slightly, he hadn't felt such a real competition for a long time, and he was already eager to try it in his heart.

What's more, Xu Song's name has long been heard of by the people.

So the two of them each held a sword, each retreated, and prepared to start the competition.

I saw that Fang Huai was holding a sword in his right hand, the sword was like frost and snow, and his body was silver.

Although it is a long sword like a mang, the momentum of Changhong is pierced, but it does not affect his temperament as warm as jade at all.

It's like the most tranquil lake, the moment the breeze blows, but it is just more and more clear, and the wind and moon are quiet.

But Xu Song is not dusty, light as a cloud, and what he holds in his hand is a soft sword, overcoming rigidity with softness.

The two of them tried three tricks back and forth, and the people around them couldn't take their eyes off it.

"Someone can actually make three moves under Xu Song's sword!"

"How is this possible!"

Everyone was shocked.

Xu Song was also impressed by the person in front of him, he didn't expect the swordsmanship to be so unfathomable, and every move he made seemed to have been seen through by him.

However, why is this sword technique so familiar to me, as if I had seen it a few years ago. Xu Songzheng thought so.

Suddenly woke up, only to feel that a fierce wind was rushing towards the back of his heart, and at this time, the bloody knife in his hand was in the air, not to mention changing the knife back and blocking it backwards.

Fang Huai stopped in time, put the sword into the scabbard, and bowed his head slightly.

"I'm smiling, I hope my seniors will pay more attention next time."

So as if nothing had happened, he went to the side and continued to practice swordsmanship.

Everyone present was stunned, shocked by the exquisite competition just now, just now Fang Huai only won in an instant.

Xu Song was also very shocked, it seemed that this person brought back by General Huo was not an ordinary person, not only could he catch his three moves, but he could also see that he had just run away.

However, after this battle, the people in the army also changed their faces to Fang Huai, and they all praised him.

Xu Song was still thinking about that set of swordsmanship at night, but he just couldn't remember it, so he went to find Huo Zhao.

"Xu Song? What's the matter with you coming late at night? ”

Huo Zhao was preparing to go to bed at this time, and after drinking a lot of wine with those corrupt officials today, he finally came up with some words, and he was going to write a letter to Xie Lanzhou in a few days.

"General Huo.. There's something unclear below... I also hope that the general will give advice. ”

Huo Zhao knelt outside the door and said.

"Oh? What's up? Let's hear it. ”

Huo Zhao became interested when he heard this, his deputy general dared to fight and dare to say on the battlefield in peacetime, how to enter this hesitation.

"The new Huo Huai, is it really a relative of the Huo family who is outcast?"

Huo Zhao was taken aback by these words, it stands to reason that when the Fang family was destroyed, Fang Huai was only in his early tens, and now his appearance has changed greatly, no one should recognize him.

"Why?"

Huo Zhao's reaction seemed to confirm Xu Song's inner guess.

"I don't dare to offend, but I studied with him today, and I saw that he was extremely familiar with swordsmanship, but my subordinates really couldn't remember where they had seen it, so I came to the general to solve the doubts in my heart."

That's right, the Fang family's swordsmanship back then was the best in the world, and Xu Song, as a person who has practiced martial arts since childhood, felt that it should be reasonable to be familiar.

"You come in and talk."

Xu Song was stunned for a moment when he heard this, but he still entered the door, and after closing the door, he saw Huo Zhao lying on his side on the couch, still holding the unfinished wine in his hand.

"Do you remember when the Fang family was wiped out?"

Huo Zhao took a long time before he slowly spoke.

Although Fang Huai's life experience is a secret, Xu Song can also be regarded as his most trusted subordinate, who has followed him since he was a child, and besides, in this army, there is someone to take care of Fang Huai, so he can rest assured.

"Naturally, I remember that the head of the Fang family offended a lot in order to deal with the border smuggling case, and then the whole family died tragically overnight, and none of them were spared.

Although Xu Song was still young at the time, because he loved swordsmanship when he was young, he was always shocked by the Fang family's swordsmanship every time he came to the banquet.

"Isn't it! Could it be that he..."

Xu Song's eyes were full of shock, the familiar swordsmanship would not be wrong, he had seen countless swordsmanship when he was a child, and it was impossible to be wrong.

"Yes, I met His Majesty when I found him, and he was bent on revenge, so I said that bringing him back to cultivate in the army can be regarded as doing my best."

Huo Zhao sighed as he spoke, and drank the wine jar in his hand.

There are always too many unfair things in this world, and right and wrong are often unclear.

"I see."

Xie Song was a little pleased, he didn't expect to be able to see the Fang family's swordsmanship again after so many years, he was very happy when he thought about it, he was a person who couldn't hide things on his face, and Huo Zhao could see it at a glance.

"What are you happy about, kid? Are you going to discuss swordsmanship with others? I'm telling you this because I want you to help you more in the army, he is new to the army, and it is inevitable that he will not be targeted by people with intentions. ”

"My subordinates understand!"

Jiang Xueyan This is the first time she has entered the capital, if she hadn't begged her father all the time, her father wouldn't have brought her.

Jiang Mingshan received a notice from Huo Zhao and asked him to come to the palace to discuss weapons, and Jiang Xueyan said that he would follow him over for nothing.

It's a trivial matter to see this prosperous capital, mainly to see Fang Huai, who has not been seen for a long time.

The reputation of the Jiang family's blacksmith shop is now getting bigger and bigger, and there are many people in Beijing who know Jiang Mingshan.

Sure enough, when people are majestic, the people around them are good, and when they are lonely, even passing by have to spit on them.

Coming to this Huo Mansion, Jiang Xueyan was stunned by the huge mansion in front of her, which was much bigger than her own mansion before.

The whole palace is very large, with a strict central axis symmetry to form a three-way multi-entry quadrangle courtyard, the layout is regular, and the ends are orderly. Pavilions and pavilions, eaves and green tiles, coiled and staggered, twists and turns.

Exquisite and elegant, but also majestic, even Jiang Mingshan has never seen such a magnificent mansion.

"Dare to ask if it's Leader Jiang?"

The guard at the door asked.

Jiang Mingshan, who was still in a trance, took a long time to come to his senses, this mansion was so big and bright that people couldn't take their eyes off it, so he hurriedly agreed.

"Exactly, this is the little girl Jiang Xueyan who greeted General Huo."

"Okay, please come with me."

The guard greeted each other with a smile on his face, very polite, and kept his back hunched, as if he was really treating the two of them as honored guests, which made Jiang Mingshan feel happy in his heart.

And Jiang Xueyan was still so fascinated by this mansion that she couldn't take her eyes off it.

I saw that after walking through the small hall of the second gate and going to the corridor, my eyes suddenly opened up.
