Chapter 39: Wuju - Liu Lu wants to become stronger
At the door of the Datong Inn, a carriage stopped, and Imperial Physician Li and his eldest son Li Xiushi stepped down from the carriage. They learned from the Cihang faction that Liu Lu was here.
There was a knock on the door of the guest room, informing that someone was looking for it.
Liu Lu was shocked to realize that she hadn't come home so late, and it must have been her father-in-law's family who had come to find her.
Liu Lu hurriedly got dressed and tied a ponytail casually. Before going out, she looked at Zhang Panshan and asked with a blushing face, "Will you propose to my stepfather?"
Zhang Panshan pondered for a few breaths and said, "Don't let others know about our affairs for the time being." ”
Liu Lu said aggrievedly: "Why?"
Zhang Panshan looked at Liu Lu and thought to himself what the Taoist priest predicted, she shouldn't know, she didn't know. Zhang Panshan said: "Wait for another ten days, the martial arts competition will be over, and we will talk about it when we leave the capital." ”
Liu Lu's eyes sank, pursed her lips, and whispered a little self-deprecatingly: "How many girls have you coaxed in this way?"
Zhang Panshan's eyes widened and he said, "What did you say?"
Liu Lu didn't look at him and said softly, "It's nothing." She walked straight to the door, thought for a moment, and then turned to pick up the bloodstained garment.
Zhang Panshan stood in front of her and explained: "I don't have any other women, just you." ”
Liu Lu still didn't look at him, and only said softly: "You get out of the way, I want to go over." ”
Zhang Panshan looked at Liu Lu with a calm face, there seemed to be nothing wrong, and he got out of the way.
Liu Lu opened the door, turned her back to him, and said, "Thank you for saving me, goodbye." ”
She walked out and closed the door.
Liu Lu took a deep breath and walked quickly to the door of the inn without looking back.
Zhang Panshan looked at the closed door, his sword eyebrows furrowed slightly.
At the door of the inn, Imperial Physician Li and Li Xiushi were anxiously waiting for Liu Lu.
Liu Lu saw them and walked over quickly. Seeing that her father-in-law and brother-in-law looked worried, she couldn't help it, and shouted softly: "Father-in-law, big brother Xiushi." ”
She gave the unpleasant blood-stained clothes in her hand to Li Xiushi, who reached over.
The father and son of the Li family had already learned what had happened from the Cihang faction, and when they saw the blood-stained clothes, the look in their eyes became even heavier.
Imperial Physician Li looked at Liu Lu who was intact and said, "It's okay if you're fine." ”
They originally wanted to thank the head of the Wudang faction, but when they saw that Zhang Panshan didn't come out, they forgot it.
After getting into the carriage, Imperial Physician Li said to Liu Lu in a somewhat heavy tone: "Girl, you still don't want to go out in the future." ”
Liu Lu said: "Father-in-law, today is an accident, next time I will definitely not follow others around." ”
Liu Lu felt guilty in her heart, she added a lot of trouble to her father-in-law's family, and even caused the samurai Ding San to be killed, but she couldn't stay at home all the time because of this.
Imperial Physician Li said: "I'm not worried, it's better for you to stay at home, and don't go to Cihang in the future." ”
Liu Lu said coquettishly: "Father-in-law, I can not go to other places, but the Cihang faction can't." ”
Imperial Physician Li said a little discouraged: "Do you want to learn martial arts from the Cihang Sect? You are a girl, how can you be like Da Zhuang, and like to engage in these famous halls of dancing and swording?"
Liu Lu said: "No wonder I have been playing with Da Zhuang since I was a child, probably because we have the same smell." ”
Imperial Physician Li frowned and remained silent.
Li Xiushi, who had been gentle and calm next to him, said loudly at this time: "Father, the martial arts competition will be over in ten days, so it's okay to let Lulu go to the Cihang faction to play these days again, and let the warriors in the family follow more." ”
The residence of the Cihang faction is not far from the residence of Imperial Physician Li, and it can be reached by walking for about 20 minutes. Most of the Cihang faction are women, and the wife of Yang Hu, the general who protects the country, is the personal disciple of the head of the Cihang faction.
Doctor Li thought about it and agreed.
Liu Lu said happily: "Thank you, father-in-law." Brother Xiushi, you're the best. ”
Li Xiushi smiled lightly and did not answer.
Imperial Physician Li spoke: "I received a reply from your home in Liuzhou today. ”
Liu Lu was overjoyed and finally replied.
However, after reading the reply letter sent by her mother, Liu Lu was not in such a good mood. In the letter, he asked Liu Lu not to return to Liuzhou, and explained that Liu Lu's marriage and other matters were all left to Imperial Doctor Li, and asked Liu Lu not to worry about her hometown.
On the other end, in the general's mansion, after listening to the report of his subordinates, Yang Hu's always gentle and modest face was a little gloomy.
In less than two months, this woman provoked He Junming of the Da He Guo family, Ye Chen, the son of Minister Ye, the head of the Wudang faction, the Chinese businessman Li Ji Shaodong, and the people of the Cihang faction, the Emei faction and the Leiyunzhuang. Now it's in trouble again. None of these eight forces can be underestimated.
He is a dignified general who protects the country, listens to his subordinates report on a woman's trivial matters every day, cleans up the mess for her, and now loses an excellent subordinate.
Can't this woman stay at home and not come out like the Wang family?
The emperor will release this scourge only if his brain is pumped.
The green tendons on Yang Hu's hands were faintly raised, and his eyes gloomily glanced at the cup in his hand that had been crushed by him.
The next morning, the person who escorted Liu Lu to the Cihang faction was Wang Liu. Since Xiangshan, it has been Ding San who has escorted Liu Lu out, and now Ding San is dead.
Liu Lu's heart was gloomy. Before Ding San died, he asked her to visit her family, and Liu Lu asked Imperial Physician Li about the situation of Ding San's family, but Imperial Physician Li did not tell her.
Liu Lu looked at Wang Liu, who had a solemn face, and Wang Liu had been at Imperial Doctor Li's house for three days.
Liu Lu asked, "Wang Liu, do you know where the Ding San family is?"
Wang Liu was stunned for a moment and did not answer.
Liu Lu said gloomily: "I thought you would know that you look a little similar in temperament. ”
Wang Liu's solemn face could not see the expression, and he said in an emotionless voice: "Girl, I am just like him, but I am only ordered to protect your safety. ”
Liu Lu listened and didn't ask again.
Soon, Liu Lu entered the gate of Lijiazhuang Courtyard and looked at the location of the porch, where Ding San had been waiting for her before. Liu Lu's eyes had some mist. For more than a month, Ding San guarded her conscientiously, but she caused him to die.
Li Chengxian stood in the courtyard next to the porch, looked at the sad Liu Lu, and opened his mouth to speak. He had been at the door for a long time, just to make sure she was okay as soon as possible.
Liu Lu saw Li Chengxian, Yingying's eyes looked at him, and he didn't say anything. She walked through the courtyard and towards the martial arts training ground in the backyard.
Li Chengxian stood in place, and when he saw Liu Lu walking away, he followed into the martial arts training ground with gloomy eyes.
Liu Lu practiced without saying a word, and practiced harder in the past. It is better to ask for others than for herself, and only if she is strong enough can she get out of the situation of having to rely on others. Her vision was a little blurry, and she forced her tears back with pain.
Li Chengxian watched from the side, his heart seemed to be stung, and there was a suppressed discomfort.
In the afternoon, Tan Ying, the head of the Cihang faction, returned, and Lu Fengxiang also returned.
Lu's injury has not yet affected her second round. This girl is as strong as a savage.
Liu Lu envied her very much.
Tan Ying, who had a serious face, looked at Liu Lu and said solemnly: "You performed well yesterday, I'll teach you another set of palm techniques." From today onwards, Chunyan will accompany you to practice for an hour every day. ”
Liu Lu listened and thanked him repeatedly.
Counter-moves are actual combat exercises, through which you can fully understand the essence of martial arts moves and learn to use them flexibly.
Chunyan is a disciple of the elders of the Cihang Sect, and a contestant in this martial arts competition, and she is a girl who does things neatly.
Chunyan stood opposite Liu Lu and accompanied her in the exercise. When the two of them reached the fifth move, Chunyan said: "Your move is wrong, and the direction is wrong." You see, it should be like this. ”
Liu Lu has been practicing this palm technique alone for seven or eight days, but when she is in a hurry, she will involuntarily make random moves. Liu Lu was a little frustrated in her heart and said, "I'm sorry, we'll do it again." ”
After a while, Chunyan said: "This is not right, you should be more careful, don't make mistakes." ”
Liu Lu said softly: "I'm sorry, I will be more attentive." Chunyan, will you do it again?"
Although she made mistakes repeatedly, Liu Lu's expression was resolute, and she wanted to become stronger.
Chunyan frowned and said, "Okay, let's come again." She continued to accompany Liu Lu to practice.
Tan Ying, who had a serious face, watched from the side, and the vertical lines on his forehead deepened. If it weren't for the fact that Liu Lu didn't leave Lu Fengxiang last night, Liu Lu's martial arts qualifications, she really didn't want to be in the Cihang faction.
