Chapter 107: Lu Kui

After proposing to the Shen family, Tang Jianqiu walked out of the door of Shen's house.

Calculating the time, Tang Jianqiu thought that it was still early, and there was no need to go back in a hurry, so he decided to visit his mentor Lu Kui.

Although Lu Kui is General An Yuan, he is different from Shen Hongluan, and the military camps where the two are located are different, the cloth methods are different, but the purpose is the same;

Shen Hongluan mainly trained white pole soldiers, while Lu Kui led the cavalry to fight.

Of course, even if it really comes to the time to fight the Qing army, Shen Hongluan can't sit idly by.

It is said that raising soldiers for a thousand days will be used for a while, and if there is a need in the future, they will take the iron cavalry and kill him! Don't be presumptuous as the descendants of the Ming Dynasty!

After coming to the barracks, Tang Jianqiu explained his intention and took out the waist card to ask the soldiers guarding for instructions.

Seeing the other party's noble status, the soldiers guarding the town did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly asked Tang Jianqiu to go in first, and he went to report first.

Tang Jianqiu didn't care, so let him go.

After a while, the soldier hurriedly came to report, and his words were even more respectful, and he spoke with a little politeness.

"General, please come in."

Tang Jianqiu didn't say anything, and went to the barracks under the leadership of the soldiers.

"General, Lord Tang has been brought."

The soldier owes a debt, and the seat is an elderly man, who looks mature and sophisticated, but does not lose his calmness, and at first glance he is a battle-hardened man, although he has experienced the baptism of the years, he has not lost the demeanor of the year.

"Got it, you go out first."

As he spoke, Lu Kui put down the teacup, and then put his eyes on Tang Jianqiu, looking at him with a little more serious.

The soldier hugged his fists and turned to leave, and Lu Kui beckoned the remaining guards to retreat.

Now there are only two people left on the field, and there is no need to hide it, there should be something to say.

In addition, both of them are rectums, so there is no need to worry too much.

General Anyuan is also a second-class person, he once served as the commander of the Jinyi Guard, and he can be described as brave and good at fighting on the battlefield, and he is nine out of ten!

He changed his previous seriousness, and instead smiled at Tang Jianqiu, "Stinky boy, you still know to come to see this seat, how long have you not seen this seat?" ”

Seeing this, Tang Jianqiu hurriedly bowed and replied: "I'm sorry General An Yuan, Beizhen Fusi has a lot of things to deal with, and it is rare to find time today, I hope the general will forgive me." ”

"Stinky boy! Call Master! Lu Kui said angrily.

"Yes, Master." Tang Jianqiu owes himself, and now that there is no one around, he can be called casually.

"I don't know your mind yet? I also heard about your proposal to the Shen family, so treat the girl well. ”

Lu Kui preached to Tang Jianqiu in the tone of an old father, which made him a little unaccustomed to it, so that his whole face was tense.

It took a while to hear Tang Jianqiu answer: "That's nature." ”

"You're just here to catch up?"

Lu Kui got up as he spoke, and then walked in front of Tang Jianqiu.

Tang Jianqiu said: "Exactly." ”

Lu Kui stretched out his hand and patted him on the shoulder, "Jianqiu, since you have come to see this seat, why don't you try it out with this seat?" ”

Tang Jianqiu seemed to have been punished on the spot, and hurriedly bowed and hugged his fists to apologize, "Don't dare!" ”

Lu Kui didn't care, saying that these were not just because of the consideration of the master-apprentice relationship? Why not?

"You must listen to me on this matter! Just let me see how much you've learned in this time, come on! Don't show mercy to me just because I'm your master! ”

"Yes!"

Since Lu Kui said so, Tang Jianqiu couldn't refuse, so he had to agree.

The news of Tang Jianqiu and Lu Kui's competition spread quickly, attracting many soldiers to come and watch, and they all wanted to see who was better than these two masters.

In order to avoid being affected, they consciously let go, retreated seven or eight feet away on the original basis, and stopped after confirming that there was no problem with this distance.

Although the two did not fight, they caused whispers from the surrounding soldiers.

They have their own opinions, but more often than not, they support the generals they admire the most.

Now it is the third watch of the sun, and although the scorching sun is not as hot as summer, it is still burning the earth fiercely, causing cold sweat to break out in the palms of the two who are already nervous.

The reason why there is such an emotion is because standing in front of him is the most admired master, even if he will not be soft on any enemy, he is also flesh and blood, and he will be somewhat unbearable.

If he is asked to do his best, he really can't be ruthless, but Master Fang has already explained, so he can only take it seriously.

The breeze blows, and the autumn leaves fall back to their roots, which seems to be an omen, but it can't blow out the firm eyes of the two.

On this empty ground, Tang Jianqiu and his master Lu Kui stood opposite each other.

Their eyes were as sharp as cold stars, staring at each other closely.

For a moment, it was as if the air was imprisoned, and only a breeze shuttled between the two, bringing the cold light of the blade.

Tang Jianqiu and Lu Kui stood opposite each other, and there was a strong smell of gunpowder between the two.

Although Tang Jianqiu is a young and promising swordsman, he is Lu Kui's most trusted disciple, and today they have to have a good battle between their master and apprentice!

Tang Jianqiu held a long knife in his hand, dressed in green clothes, his eyes were firm, and the aura he exuded was a little richer with the start of the competition.

And his master, Lu Kui, is a majestic old man, he is burly, holding a heavy big knife, although he is old, but his skills are still vigorous.

Lu Kui was holding a Guan knife, wearing a red robe, and his eyes revealed his appreciation and expectation for his apprentice.

Lu Kui stared at Tang Jianqiu and slowly spoke: "Jianqiu, do you know what the most important thing is in the sword technique?" ”

Without waiting for Tang Jianqiu to answer, he continued: "The way of the sword technique is intended to be attentive, only by feeling the direction of the tip of the knife with the heart can the greatest power be exerted, and you must not show mercy to your subordinates because of personal feelings!" ”

After speaking, Lu Kui danced the knife.

Suddenly, there was a murderous aura in the air, and Tang Jianqiu clenched the embroidered spring knife and quickly caught up.

"Bang!"

In an instant, the sword skills of the two were intertwined, like a brilliant firework blooming, which made people unable to take their eyes off, and the soldiers who saw this scene couldn't help but exclaim.

The two knives collided, the cold light flashed, and the two separated and bounced away at the same time, and suddenly rushed towards the opponent.

Lu Kui's knife technique was calm and solid, every movement was as stable as a mountain, and his knife technique was even more ruthless, which caught Tang Jianqiu off guard every time.

Tang Jianqiu's vigorous figure moved quickly in the main hall, like a dexterous swallow flying from it, and the embroidered spring knife in his hand was like a silver snake, sometimes meandering forward, sometimes jumping up and biting.

And Lu Kui responded to Tang Jianqiu's attack with his unique steady rhythm, his sword technique seemed to be calm, but it revealed a killing intent at a critical moment.

The two of them exchanged swords, staggering with sparks, and in addition to that, a pleasant voice sounded from it.

After about twenty rounds of fighting, the two men staggered, and only the turmoil of the collision was generated.

Although the winner was not decided, it meant a lot to the two.

As time passed, Tang Jianqiu's offensive became more and more intense, and his sword techniques were like a torrential rain.

Lu Kui, on the other hand, responded to all changes with the same and held his position steadily.

However, at the moment when Tang Jianqiu's sword momentum slowed down slightly, Lu Kui seized the opportunity and slashed out!

Tang Jianqiu hurriedly resisted, but it was too late, and the blade cut through his sleeve!

Fortunately, Lu Kui has already shown mercy to his subordinates, otherwise he would have left a deep wound!

However, this is nothing to Tang Jianqiu, it is all careless, and the two of them are even more vicious.

The dust was stirred up in the air during their fight, and the leaves flew all over the air, and the soldiers were even more dumbfounded, they had not seen such a wonderful battle for a long time.

Tang Jianqiu gritted his teeth, a hint of resoluteness flashed in his eyes, while Lu Kui was expressionless, as if he had already expected all this.

After that, Tang Jianqiu gradually gained the upper hand with his flexible swordsmanship, and he swung his sword and slashed, forcing Lu Kui to retreat again and again.

However, in an instant, Tang Jianqiu's sword suddenly changed direction, like a spirit snake spitting out a letter, heading straight for Lu Kui's chest.

Lu Kui was startled, and in a hurry, he took advantage of the daylight to form a light curtain with the blade as a mirror, and hit Tang Jianqiu in the face, causing Tang Jianqiu to close his eyes, and the offensive in his hand was even slower.

However, Tang Jianqiu did not stop because of this.

He spun around and launched another round of more fierce attacks.

This time, his swordsmanship was as fierce as a storm, making people dizzy, although Lu Kui struggled to resist, but under Tang Jianqiu's violent attack, he seemed more and more powerless.

This duel was already halfway through, but it had already attracted a lot of people to watch, Tang Jianqiu didn't dare to be careless, he knew that this battle would determine his status in the rivers and lakes.

Tang Jianqiu took the lead in attacking, and the long knife turned into a silver light and stabbed at the opponent!

Lu Kui flashed easily, and at the same time swung the big knife in his hand and slashed at Tang Jianqiu, Tang Jianqiu hurriedly dodged the attack with a roll, and then quickly got up to start a new round of competition with his opponent.

The battle between the two was extremely fierce, Tang Jianqiu used various sword techniques to wrestle with his opponent, while Lu Kui used the sword in his hand to constantly attack.

This battle comparable to a life-and-death battle made the surrounding onlookers sweat.

After a fierce confrontation, Tang Jianqiu suddenly sold a flaw, and I don't know if it was intentional, Lu Kui naturally did not let go of this great opportunity, he chased after him, and Tang Jianqiu retreated all the way and led Lu Kui away first.

At this time, Tang Jianqiu suddenly broke out, and the long knife turned into an afterimage, forcing Lu Kui to retreat again and again.

After that, Lu Kui swung out the Guan knife and slashed at Tang Jianqiu with all his strength, Tang Jianqiu flashed sideways, and at the same time used the back of the knife to tease Lu Kui.

Finally, in Tang Jianqiu's unforeseen raid, Lu Kui's knife was knocked out by Tang Jianqiu's sword, and he stood in place, bearing Tang Jianqiu's final blow without protection.

"General!"

Tang Jianqiu exclaimed in surprise, and retracted the embroidered spring knife that was about to pierce Lu Kui's chest, cold sweat came out of his forehead with overly nervous emotions.

Such an ending was something they didn't expect, and it was surprising that General An Yuan, whom they respected the most, actually lost to his apprentice.

Lu Kui was knocked to the ground by Tang Jianqiu, although he looked embarrassed, his eyes were full of approval.

Tang Jianqiu hurriedly stepped forward to help Lu Kui, and Lu Kui didn't look too surprised when he saw it.

With Tang Jianqiu's support, he got up, waved his hand, and said with a wry smile: "Old and old, after all, you still lost to you young people, and you used this last trick well." ”

Tang Jianqiu lowered his head apologetically, hugged his fists and said, "Master praised you falsely, making you laugh all the time." ”

Lu Kui smiled, stretched out his hand and patted Tang Jianqiu's shoulder, and said, "You are doing a good job, why do you want to laugh?" It is inevitable to lose to you, after all, the back waves of the Yangtze River push the front waves,

Jianqiu, you have to remember that a martial artist must not only have skills, but also martial virtues, learn to be flexible, and not be soft-hearted, not to mention that your victory is not easy.

It is secondary to you that you can defeat the master in the duel, the most important thing is that you understand the true meaning of the sword technique, which means that you have become a qualified soldier, and you have the potential to become a real master, but you can't be completely relaxed. ”

"Master Xie, the apprentice remembered."
