Chapter 33: Three Questions (1)
CHAPTER XXXIII
Lin Anyan was awakened by the sun.
He squinted and glanced at the uninteresting sun with some resentment.
Splitting headaches.
He remembered that he had drunk a lot of wine last night, and remembered the graceful figure in the moonlight.
"Qi Woman!"
Thinking of drinking with Qi Liyun under the moon last night, Lin Anyan hurriedly got up.
Looking around, he found that he had fallen asleep on the tiled roof, and it was a good fortune that he did not fall.
As for Qi Liyun, where can you still see her.
I don't know if it's because the place where I live is a guest room, looking at the sun at the moment, it is estimated that it is already sun, but there is no one around.
Lin Anyan staggered to his feet, planning to go down the same way he had gone to the house yesterday.
But it's easy to get into the room and hard to get out of the room.
He looked at the branch, which was no thicker than his forearm, and felt the distance from the branch to the roof, and couldn't help but feel a little big.
"Alas, there's a knife on the head of the color word, it's harmful, how the hell is going down. ”
Just as Lin Anyan was squatting on the roof and worrying, he heard a cough at the entrance of the courtyard.
"Lin Gongzi, is this a light martial arts?"
Lin Anyan followed the prestige, and the person who came was dressed in a black robe and white clothes, and he was shaking a white feather fan made of unknown hair.
Lin Anyan thought about it, it seems that since he saw Situ Xiao yesterday, he has never seen Situ Xiao put down the feather fan in his hand, and even when eating, he shakes the fan with one hand and holds chopsticks with the other.
I really want to know how he spent the winter.
But at this time, the fan is not important, but the next room is important.
Lin An waved his hand at Situ Xiao with a smile on his face, and said shamelessly:
"Strategist, it's inconvenient for you to come up, let's chat. ”
Situ Xiao smiled helplessly and shook his head, and then waved the feather fan in his hand lightly, Lin Anyan only felt a powerful force coming from behind him, directly pushing him off the roof.
Before Lin Anyan landed, Situ Xiao held the feather fan in his hand and lifted it up, and two small whirlwinds were born under Lin Anyan's feet, holding Lin Anyan in mid-air.
Lin Anyan stepped on the whirlwind and jumped into the courtyard, and couldn't help but look at the two winds that slowly dispersed in surprise.
"it, what kind of strange trick do you have, military advisor, and teach me too?"
Situ Xiao walked under the big tree in the courtyard, randomly chose a shady place to sit on the ground, and said with a slight smile:
"That's the first question?"
Lin Anyan then remembered the conversation with Situ Xiao last night, he drank so much wine last night that he actually forgot about it.
I saw Lin Anyan hurriedly shook his head and waved his hand to refuse, there are three questions in total, how can he ask such a thing, even if he wants to learn martial arts again, now is not the time.
Lin Anyan thought for a while, pointed to the sun in the sky, and said with a cheeky smile:
"Strategist, you look at the bright sun, it's not just a sunny day, it's a sunny day. This kind of weather should give me a small problem. ”
After listening to this, Situ Xiao was really shocked by Lin Anyan's shameless technique, only to see him give him a thumbs up and nod his head and praise:
"It is worthy of being the eldest son of the first merchant of Daliang, you have to bargain if you ask a question. ”
Lin Anyan smiled silently, in fact, he was not bargaining, but buying time.
He had been drinking with Qi Liyun last night, and he hadn't thought about asking any questions at all.
However, it was not easy to catch a person who might know the Lin family's secrets and was willing to say it, there were only three chances, and Lin Anyan must ask for some key information.
He needed time, even if it was short, to think about how to design these three questions.
Situ Xiao is not omniscient and omnipotent, and he didn't guess Lin Anyan's mind at this moment, he just thought that this young man liked to take advantage of small advantages and play smart.
But he is not the person who inks, I saw Situ Xiao waving the feather fan casually, and where the feather fan waved, the fallen leaves on the ground floated up.
Lin Anyan saw that the wind mixed with fallen leaves had risen to half a person's height in an instant.
Situ Xiao pointed to this wind and said: "This is the unique mental method of my Tie Qi Sect, which is called Qi Void Qi. ”
"Ordinary people practice martial arts, usually start from the external force, and when the body is exercised to a certain extent, it will naturally generate internal force from the outside in, which is for the external force to adduct. ”
"But the biggest problem with this way of practicing martial arts is that there are natural differences between people and people's physical fitness, so some martial artists are only capable of three or four heavens in their lives, and like the Wujian who ranks third on the martial arts list, it is said that he has just passed the year of standing, but he has the ability to be close to the nine heavens. ”
"This leads to the fact that ordinary martial arts practitioners are more talented than everything. And the first head of Tieqimen, but it happened to be a handicapped person, because of physical reasons, he couldn't study everywhere, so he was angry and introspective, and practiced in Youming Mountain for thirty years, practicing this Qi Void Qi. ”
"Qi Void Qi is essentially the opposite, first practice internal force, and wait until the internal force is trained, and then supplement the external force from the inside out, which is to release the internal force. ”
As he spoke, Situ Xiao waved his hand casually and dispersed the magical wind.
"Do you want to learn? Worship under the Tieqi Gate, and I'll teach you. ”
Lin Anyan was thinking about how to ask those three questions just now, and he just smiled at what Situ Xiao said, but he didn't care.
At this moment, he had already thought about how to ask a question, so he simply sat opposite Situ Xiao, stretched out a finger and asked slowly:
"The first question, twenty years ago, Liang attacked the Northern Qi Dynasty, and within two months he reached Yanping, the capital of the Northern Qi Kingdom, and conquered the Northern Qi in half a year.
After asking the question, Lin Anyan didn't say anything more, but stared at Situ Xiao's eyes tightly.
He caught the flash of astonishment in Situ Xiao's eyes.
That's what you want!
Lin Anyan secretly said happy in her heart, it's done!
When Lin Weige taught him to do business before, he said that the word buying and selling, which seems to be a transaction of money and goods, is actually a mutual test between people's hearts and people's hearts.
If you want to master a transaction, you must master the people in the transaction.
This first question seems to have nothing to do with the Lin family, but through this question, Lin Anyan can judge who this Situ Xiao is, and then speculate how much he knows about the events of the year.
If he was just a young man who had learned the one-and-a-half-trick of Tieqimen, even if he was capable now, he would just be holding the signboard of Tieqimen.
Situ Xiao had been planning this conversation for an unknown amount of time, and he thought about various questions that Lin Anyan might ask.
Even when he went back last night, Situ Xiao, who was injured internally, was still trying to perfect this dialogue according to Lin Anyan's every move during the banquet.
But he never expected that Lin Anyan's first question would be so "selfless": not to ask about the Lin family's town house, not to ask Lin Weige's past, and even to say that it has nothing to do with the Lin family.
But the so-called soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, how can Situ Xiao mess up because of an unexpected problem.
"Lin Gongzi can you know why Tieqi Gate is called the Northern Qi National Gate?"
Lin Anyan was slightly stunned when he heard this, and said in his heart that there was no such thing, and he said that he would answer three questions, and he asked himself before he could answer this question.
But then he reacted, this Situ Xiao has something to say.
So he simply shook his head and motioned for Situ Xiao to continue.
I saw Situ Xiao frowning, shaking the feather fan gently, and seemed to be very reluctant to tell Lin Anyan about the past.
"In the era when the three males of the Tieqi Gate were competing for deer in Daliang, Xishu and Northern Qi, almost the entire sect of people joined the Northern Qi army and swore allegiance to the Northern Qi, so it was called the Northern Qi National Gate. ”
"In fact, what the people don't know is that joining the army to serve the country is what Tieqimen should do, because Tieqimen itself is like the Imperial City Division of your Daliang, which collects internal and external intelligence for the Northern Qi Dynasty, and the people of Tieqimen are also the same as the bad people of your Daliang, they are all spies, and the martial artists of the rivers and lakes are what they cover up their identities. ”
Hearing this secret, Lin Anyan was undoubtedly taken aback.
After all, whether it is the Imperial City Division of Daliang or the Secret Bureau of Xishu, they are all hidden in the shadows, and Tieqimen is the No. 1 sect in the rivers and lakes at its peak.
The number one faction in the rivers and lakes is a spy agency, and no one can think of it.
However, Lin Anyan suddenly remembered the vase in Siqi Villa.
Many things, placed in the most conspicuous place, are the easiest to ignore.
Situ Xiao didn't pay attention to Lin Anyan, but continued to take care of himself:
"The first emperor of the Northern Qi Dynasty firmly believed that the great hidden in the city, in the middle of the Goolan Tile House, is the place where intelligence gathers and hides, and it is also for this reason that it will help Tieqimen continue to grow, hoping to use Tieqimen's reputation and reputation in the rivers and lakes to obtain information and feed back to the temple. ”
"Tieqimen has a rule to the outside world, anyone who becomes a disciple of Tieqimen must change his surname to Qi, Qi is the name of the country, and it is the surname given by the first emperor. ”
Situ Xiao shook his feather fan and looked at the sky, as if he was immersed in that memory.
But he didn't let Lin Anyan wait too long, and after a while, he continued: "The last head of the Tieqi Sect is named Qi Xian, and he is my brother. ”
Hearing the name Qi Xian, Lin Anyan felt a little familiar.
"Qi Xian is your brother, aren't you surnamed Situ? Situ Xiao...... Situ Xian, the general of Northern Qi Dingyuan, is Situ Xian, the head of the Tieqi Sect?"
Situ Xiao, who thought that after more than 20 years, there would be no more waves in his heart, when he heard Lin Anyan call out his brother's name, the hand shaking the feather fan still trembled obviously.
He quickly stopped shaking the fan, folded his hands on his lap, calmed his mind, and continued with grief:
Although the border between the two countries has not been very peaceful, the Northern Qi thought that the Great Liang who was sandwiched between the two countries of Northern Qi and Western Shu would never dare to attack with all his might, and the Northern Qi could be said to have no preparation for the sudden arrival of the Great Liang. ”
"Although my brother and his disciples of the Tieqi Sect led the troops to resist, they still couldn't stop the attack of the whole country of Daliang, and they were defeated and retreated, and within two months they were beaten to the point where there was no way to retreat. ”
Situ Xiao suffered internal injuries last night in order to protect Lin Anyan from being impacted by Qi Xu's qi, and now he recalls the past, and his grief comes from it, and he vomits out a mouthful of blood.
Lin Anyan didn't know about Situ Xiao's injury, and at this moment, seeing that the white clothes on Situ Xiao's chest were dyed red, he was a little panicked for a while.
Fortunately, Situ Xiao was lucky in time to suppress the tumbling qi and blood in his body, and then looked at Lin Anyan with a little apology, shaking his head to indicate that it was okay.
"At that time, in Yanping, the capital of Northern Qi State, my brother took the only remaining more than 20 disciples of the Tieqi Sect and 20,000 elite soldiers to protect the country, and guarded it for three whole months, but the Yanping granary was burned, the reservoir was robbed, and the food was exhausted almost overnight. ”
"The battle was fought at its best, the soldiers had to cut the corpses of the enemy into minced meat, the people in the city were also in chaos, the killing of parents and children for food happened every day, the whole Yanping was silent during the day, and the ghosts cried wolves at night, and they became the underworld alive from the human world. ”
"Knowing that the tide was over, the elder brother chose to open the city gate and made a final charge with the remaining remnants, only to be shot off his horse by the crossbow of the girder, and the bones were gone. ”
