Chapter 51: Temptation
At the beginning of the lanterns, bursts of laughter came from the Xianyun Tavern, which was almost full.
The women are like butterflies wearing flowers, shuttling between the light wine tables.
Zhuo Feiyang wore a royal blue robe, his face was like a crown of jade, and his waist hung a long sword, like a beautiful son, and slowly entered the tavern with Bai Zhijie.
Two beautiful girls greeted him, and Zhuo Feiyang waved his hand: "Find us a seat." ”
"Two sons, I'm really sorry, there are no seats outside, only a separate private room. ”
"No seats?"
"I'm sorry, two sons,...... We have a reservation rule in the tavern, you can say in advance, we reserve a seat. ”
"I'm going to eat here today, move me a seat!"
"Childe, everyone who enters the tavern is a distinguished guest, I'm really embarrassed to ......"
"Smack!" Zhuo Feiyang suddenly shook his hand and gave the girl a clear slap.
The beautiful girl covered her face and looked at Zhuo Feiyang in surprise.
Because behind her is the Guogong Mansion, no one has ever dared to come here to make trouble, there is no quarrel, let alone beating people, she didn't expect this handsome boy to dare to do this.
"This time, right?" Zhuo Feiyang sneered.
There are many people who look at it, frowning and staring at Zhuo Feiyang, no one is upset, they all have the idea of watching a good show, and dare to come here to make trouble, thinking that the Guogong Mansion is a vegetarian?
"Senior Brother Zhuo, what are you going to do!" Zhao Ying glared at him angrily.
Her clear eyes were cold, she didn't expect Zhuo Feiyang to be so bad that he dared to do it, this is a taboo, he is really crazy!
Zhuo Feiyang said coldly: "Senior Sister Zhao, you are here again!"
"How can you beat people?!" Zhao Yingdai frowned, and reprimanded dissatisfiedly: "They don't know martial arts, you can do it!"
"I don't care if they can be martial arts, I only know that they are people with the surname Chu!"
"Unreasonable!" Zhao Ying pointed at him and said angrily: "You and Senior Brother Chu are just in a hurry, why do you want to involve others?"
Zhuo Feiyang snorted: "He should be a turtle with a shrunken head, I can only make this decision!"
"Senior Brother Zhuo, Senior Brother Chu doesn't accept the challenge because he doesn't want to hit you, do you think you can really beat Senior Brother Chu?!" Zhao Ying sneered.
Zhuo Feiyang sneered again and again: "Senior Sister Zhao seems to be very optimistic about him!"
"Senior Brother Zhuo, how many important things are to be done outside, and there are countless evildoers in the world, why are you only staring at a little grievance?" Zhao Ying sighed helplessly: "A manly man should think about how to make a contribution, instead of entangled in personal grievances all day long, Senior Brother Zhuo, be a little more open-minded!"
Zhuo Feiyang heard it harshly, and sneered: "What bullshit, I just want to be happy!"
"Alas......" Zhao Ying shook her head, completely disappointed.
"Let the person surnamed Chu come to me and accept the battle post!" Zhuo Feiyang turned around and left.
Zhao Ying glared at him and came to the woman: "Sister Chen, it doesn't matter, right?"
She is Chen Yin, with a beautiful round face, delicate skin, delicate facial features, generous and shrewd, so she does the job of welcoming guests.
Chen Yin touched her face and smiled indifferently: "It's just a slap, it's not a big deal, Sister Zhao, don't tell your son!"
Zhao Ying hurriedly said: "Of course you have to tell Senior Brother Chu!"
Chen Yin shook his head and sighed: "Don't say it...... It's nothing, it's just a slap in the face, it's not worth mentioning, in case I tell my son, another battle of will, in case there is a mistake, I can't redeem it!"
Zhao Ying frowned and looked at her.
Chen Yin smiled: "I really don't care. ”
Zhao Ying hesitated, and had to think about it carefully.
But she was completely disappointed in Zhuo Feiyang, she didn't expect him to be such a person, and he would actually hit a woman who didn't know martial arts!
――
When Chu Li returned to the East Garden, it was already evening.
He practiced the Vajra Doo Divine Skill for a day, his muscles were sore, and the taste of the iron rod hitting his body was not so good, and recently there was a pearl beauty in the East Garden who was sick and needed to be taken care of, and he didn't come back, Li Yue was uneasy, and he couldn't eat well and sleep well.
The afterglow of the setting sun shines on the lake, and a gust of wind blows, and the lake glows red.
He left the boat and landed on the shore, and as soon as he entered the small courtyard, he saw Zhao Ying, she was sitting at the stone table with Li Yue to discuss something, and as soon as she saw him come in, she immediately shut up.
Chu Li smiled: "What, are you saying bad things about me?"
"Senior brother, why haven't you been to the tavern recently?" Zhao Ying was dressed in a lake-green shirt, and her face was white and delicate, and she was very moving.
Chu Li smiled: "Isn't it because you're here, senior sister, I'm very relieved that you are doing things!"
Zhao Ying was ashamed and sighed.
Li Yue said: "Brother, Zhuo Feiyang is not giving up, and he has sent a battle post again, this time with a bet, 100,000 taels!"
He said as he handed him a fiery challenge post.
"One hundred thousand taels?" Chu Li raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "He has to fight this one, such a big bait has been thrown!"
"Do you want to fight?" Li Yue hurriedly said: "One hundred thousand taels, he must be very sure!"
Chu Li smiled.
Zhao Ying sighed: "Senior brother, you are not short of money!"
Chu Li smiled: "Who said that I am not short of money? Of course, the more money, the better!"
"Your beautiful maids are all mixed up, what is missing!" Zhao Ying glanced at him angrily.
She hadn't seen Chu Li's maid, but she had heard everyone talk about it, she was unusually beautiful, cold and gorgeous, and people couldn't refuse, they were all envious and jealous, she was willing to have such a maid and her life reduced by twenty years!
Chu Li pretended not to hear it, and didn't answer the conversation: "It seems that Zhuo Feiyang has prepared a killer plan, well, okay, I took this challenge, Zhuo Feiyang has become smarter, what are you doing with those little tricks, I just threw this bait at the beginning, of course I will accept it!"
"Senior brother-!" Zhao Ying's eyes widened.
Chu Li smiled and said: "Senior sister, practicing martial arts is the most expensive, think about it, how much is a Peiyuan Dan?"
"It's only ten taels of silver. ”
"It's in our house, what if we go out and buy it?"
"Twenty taels. ”
"In addition to Pei Yuan Dan, there are also Qi Pills, as well as Purple Qi Pills, in short, as a guard, the pill is indispensable!"
"That's not enough for 100,000 taels!"
Chu Li shook his head: "You...... , when you go out to break into the martial arts, you will know, how much does a good sword cost?"
"One hundred taels?"
"It's just an ordinary good sword, if it's better, a thousand taels, what about a famous sword, ten thousand taels, or even more!"
"There's no need for such a good sword, right?"
Chu Li smiled: "You should know the importance of a good sword, deciding life and death, isn't a life worth 10,000 taels?"
Zhao Ying was stunned and stopped talking.
As a sword practitioner, of course she knows the importance of a good sword.
Chu Li said: "So, I took this challenge, but I have to go to the martial arts hall competition!"
"Alas......" Zhao Ying sighed.
"Besides, he dares to go to Xianyun Tavern to beat people, how can I not teach him a lesson!" Chu Li snorted.
Zhao Ying glanced at him angrily: "This is the key!"
Chu Li shook his head and said: "Zhuo Feiyang is crazy now, if you don't compete with him, I don't know what stupid things I will do, sooner or later I will have to solve it!"
――
In the martial arts training ground in front of the martial arts hall, people gathered in a circle, quietly.
There were two people standing in the field, Zhuo Feiyang and Chu Li.
Zhuo Feiyang, the first master of the youth, wants to challenge the guard Chu Li, Chu Li is already a sixth-rank at a young age, and he is the top person among the guards, and it is more difficult to be promoted to a sixth-rank guard at such an age than a guard.
Bai Zhijie, Zhao Ying and Li Yue all stood in the crowd, staring at the two of them.
At nine o'clock in the morning, the sun was shining, everything around was clear and bright, and the lake breeze was gently blowing, blowing through the crowd and blowing on the face.
Chu Li felt the lake breeze blowing on his face, showing a hint of a smile, and the willow trees on the entire island came into mind, and the aura was surging, ready for him to drive.
"Does this Chu guard know martial arts?"
"Nonsense, if not, what will Zhuo Feiyang challenge?"
"It doesn't look like it. ”
"Well, don't say it, it's really not like it, his eyes are blank, his hands and feet are weak, he looks like an ordinary person, is there any personal grudge between the two, Zhuo Feiyang challenged to vent his anger?"
"What are the Chu guards fighting?
"Maybe you're forced to be helpless, right?"
"I heard that the Chu guards opened a tavern outside, called Xianyun Tavern, the business is very good, Zhuo Feiyang went to make trouble, and beat people, is it unbearable!"
"Zhuo Feiyang has gone too far. ”
"Who says it's not, but no one dares to care, Zhuo Feiyang is too strong now. ”
"Alas...... , I can see through the way of this world, whoever has the big fist can say it, let's practice hard!"
"Yes, you can only speak loudly if you practice hard, your martial arts are not strong, so you should be honest!"
People talked a lot and sympathized with Chu Li.
The six-rank guards are also considered to be middle and high-level, and they have a certain amount of power in the Guogong Mansion, but in the face of challenges, in the final analysis, they are still stronger than who is martial arts, and in this world, martial arts are the first.
This incident made them firm in the path of protection, and desperately pursued the strength of martial arts.
Chu Li coughed lightly, looked at Zhuo Feiyang, whose eyes widened angrily, as if he was about to tear himself: "Zhuo Feiyang, do you really want to pay 100,000 taels of silver?
"It's too late for you to regret it!" Zhuo Feiyang sneered.
Chu Li shook his head: "I'm afraid that you will regret it!"
"The surname Chu, don't play with your tongue, you will cry later!"
"I hope you don't cry when you lose!"
"Hmph!" Zhuo Feiyang turned his head, pressed his hand on the hilt of his sword, closed his eyes, and didn't look at him.
Chu Li smiled, feeling the beauty of nature, connected to the surrounding flowers and plants, hey, there is also Tongjian grass here, which grows in a pile of wild grass outside the martial arts training ground.
There is also red dragon fruit, which is also a miracle medicine, which can be eaten with the dragon grass, which has the magic of strengthening muscles and bones, but unfortunately the effect is not so strong, it is very useful for ordinary people, and it is very small for people who practice martial arts.
The crowd suddenly moved out of the way, clasped their fists and saluted, and two white-haired old men walked over slowly.
One is tall and the other is short and thin, creating a stark contrast.
The tall and fat old man smiled, and the short and thin old man had a straight face, cold as frost, and his eyes swept everyone, as if a knife blade had slashed.
They are the worship elders of the Yanwu Palace, this time I asked them to testify, the formal challenge is like this, the challenge between Chu Li and Zhuo Feiyang last time was not formal enough, so Zhuo Feiyang dared not admit it.
Chu Li hugged his fists: "Senior Chu, Senior He, it's hard work!"
The tall and fat old man smiled and said, "There is a lively look, I like it the most!"
The short and thin old man said in a deep voice, "Where's the silver ticket?"
Zhuo Feiyang took out the silver ticket from his arms and presented it, the tall and fat old man took it, counted it, and said with a smile: "That's right, 100,000 taels of silver, the dragon ticket of Taihe Yinzhuang, okay, you can start!"
