Chapter 003: Isn't It Just a Matter of a Sword?
"Fourth uncle, I'm ......" The idiot's face turned red, and he didn't know whether he was ridiculed or beaten by the big man.
"It's okay, I haven't really sharpened the battle, plus the control of the sword intent is still a little bit worse, and it's normal to lose. Fourth Uncle Ding said lightly.
There was no expression on his face, Zhang Shaoyang felt that from the time he saw Fourth Uncle Ding, his face was like this, it had never changed for more than ten years, at this time, he saw him take two steps forward, his body stood straight, like a mountain, and the sword in his hand began to buzz unconsciously, as if he felt a trace of the master's fighting intent.
In Zhang Shaoyang's stunned expression, the sword in Uncle Ding's hand flew out of the scabbard with a "clang", and then rushed straight towards the big man on the stage.
The big man's face finally showed a hint of discoloration, he let out a loud shout, and then the knife in his hand flipped over, slashing diagonally from the bottom to the top, and the two slammed into each other.
Everyone in the audience only felt a stuffiness in their chests, like a sledgehammer hitting their chests, and the big man ate the power of this sword firmly, and the whole person stepped back four or five steps, and finally stabilized his body, and saw that the sword that was finally split turned back in the air, and swooped down, its momentum was like a rainbow, and there was an unrivaled momentum.
With that moment just now, how dare Dahan take it hard, he turned around and ran, only to hear the sound of "bang", the position where Dahan was standing just now suddenly sawdust flew sideways, and was smashed out of a three-foot square hole, the sword was inserted into the stone bricks under the wooden platform at this time, and there was no crack on the stone bricks, as if the sword itself was inserted here.
It took a long time for the big man to come to his senses, he looked at Uncle Ding, who had not come to the stage, his eyes were full of respect, and he didn't feel that there was anything wrong with slipping away just now, and then he said recklessly: "The Tubo people revere the strong, I am defeated." ”
Uncle Ding nodded, there was still no wave on his face, Zhang Shaoyang did not forget to poke at the weakness of the idiot: "Look at your bells and whistles, isn't it just a matter of a sword?"
The idiot ignored him and went up to pick up the sword for Uncle Ding, while Zhang Shaoyang stared at the woman in the sedan chair and said with a smile: "The martial arts fight has been seen, why don't you let me come to Wendou next?"
The people of Jiangling who were watching from the audience all had strange looks on their faces, who didn't know that Zhang Shaoyang had already entered Beijing to take the provincial examination twice, and both times he was the last, and this year after the New Year, he was going to enter Beijing again for the examination, and seeing that he was merry and happy all day, how could he have the appearance of a scholar, and the results of this third time would probably not be much different from the first two times! It is okay to let him spend all day drinking and drinking nonsense, let him come to Wendou, or with the Tubo people who came all the way from thousands of miles, and it is the face of the Great Song Dynasty that will be lost if he loses.
Just when everyone wanted to go up and knock him off the stage, an extremely soft voice came from outside the crowd: "Zhang Gongzi might as well let the little girl try it, if the little girl is not talented and loses to the Tubo princess, Zhang Gongzi will fight again, which can be regarded as an eye-opener for the little woman." ”
Everyone followed the sound and looked, only to see a wonderful woman walking, wearing a plain white floor-length skirt, lined with a light cyan tulle, the green silk on the head was tied with two hanging hostas in half, and the other half naturally hung down to the waist, the complexion was flushed, not dyed with fat and powder, and the facial features were delicate like a person in the painting.
The person who came was Gao Jingshu, the daughter of Jiangling Zhizhou!
Gao Jingshu is known as the first beauty in Jiangling, also known as the first talented woman in Jiangling, she has been proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting since she was a child, especially she writes with one hand and no good words.
There is no shortage of dignitaries and dignitaries in Jiangling, and there should be eleven households on the top of the ranks, but it is strangely tight, except for the Zhizhou Mansion is a daughter, the remaining ten families are all sons, these dozen sons and daughters are together, and called Jiangling twelve young, although Zhang Shaoyang is not the oldest, but he is the first in the twelve young.
These twelve rich sons, they really smell like each other, they are well-known in the Jiangling area, and these sons, except for Zhang Shaoyang, are all Miss Jingshu's suitors, Zhang Shaoyang...... It used to be, too!
When he was fifteen years old, Zhang Shaoyang ran to hang outside the Zhizhou Mansion all day long, and was frightened to learn that the state lord was like a wolf and did not allow his daughter to go out all day long, and then Zhang Shaoyang learned to be smart, and moved his brain, and asked his subordinates to go to the Zhizhou Mansion to report the false case, and sneaked in while the Zhizhou Lord was out of the house, but Miss Gao didn't see it, and he was beaten by his father.
Later, Zhang Shaoyang finally saw Miss Gao, and never thought that this little woman seemed to be knowledgeable, soft and quiet, but before he could say two words, he was scolded by this woman for three or two sentences, and over time, Zhang Shaoyang also understood that this woman is not as good as ordinary women, and it is better to be less troublesome.
Gao Jingshu walked slowly onto the stage, the wooden platform had just been slashed by Uncle Ding's sword, Gao Jingshu was standing on the edge of the pit, looking at the Tubo princess in the sedan chair.
"Martial arts fighting is simple, you can divide the victory and defeat, there are many ways to fight this culture, I don't know how the princess wants to compare?"
Women's fights are the most terrifying, especially the two women who both think highly of themselves, Zhang Shaoyang doesn't want to get involved, and after thinking about it, it's better to give up the limelight to Gao Jingshu.
Princess Tubo smiled faintly: "I heard that you Song people have a very interesting game of 'fighting grass', I am very interested, why not ask my sister to explain one or two?"
"The princess is really well-informed, our folk tricks actually understand, the so-called fighting grass, is the princess reported a grass name, I will on a grass name, requiring the meaning of the word is relative, the position is the same, and the tone is harmonious, if the princess reported a grass name The little woman can not answer, then I lost. Gao Jingshu smiled sweetly, which made all the men in the audience fascinated.
"Oh, if you just fight like this, it feels a little less interesting, why don't you change the way you play?"
"Princess, please ask!"
The princess of Tubo groaned slightly, and then said: "The world sighs for a flash in the pan, I don't know day and night, although this epiphany is beautiful, but it is only a moment, and it blooms quickly and loses quickly, we might as well argue, for epiphany, is this fortunate or unfortunate?"
Zhang Jingshu thought for a while and said: "The world is big, all things coexist, Zhuangzi once said, 'The fungus does not know the obscurity, the cockroach does not know the spring and autumn', and also said that 'in ancient times, there was a big tsubaki, 8,000 years old for spring, 8,000 years old for autumn', whether it is a tome cricket or tens of thousands of years of Tsubaki, it is the general trend of the world, how to talk about luck and misfortune?"
"My sister said that this is not right, I think, in the epiphany, but fortunately, no matter how long the flowering period is, it is difficult to survive in the world for a long time, the world will be bored after a long time, and the epiphany will be defeated when it blooms, but it is deeply praised and sympathetic by the world, this is one of them, my sister said that the general trend of the world, how can I not know the reason that the division will be combined for a long time, the world is rare and peaceful, and the desire for power is rampant, so it is inevitable to move with the situation, stirring up the world is difficult to be peaceful, and the epiphany is in a hurry, and you will not see all kinds of ugliness in this world, is it not a fortunate thing?"
