Chapter 18 Martial Arts Heroes, Jianghu Drama (Middle)

Jiantao Pavilion, located in the south bank of Jianchuan, a total of four floors, six zhang high, from the north of the building to look at, is the surging Jianchuan water, the vast eastward, boundless and endless, is the first building of Jianchuan.

Today's Jiantao Pavilion is particularly lively.

The Hengjiang Gang, one of the two major gangs in Jianchuan City, held a banquet at noon. Hengjiang helped Jianchuan rudder master, congenital master Zou Tong personally attended, and almost none of the other masters in the rudder were missed, and he invited the first corner merchant Shao Hui of Jianchuan to help the fun.

And the object of the banquet is Master Yan Liyan, who is now famous and is said to have touched the edge of the unity of human and sword.

The news had been spreading since the night before.

Knights from all walks of life rushed one after another, trying to ask for an invitation, so that they could be familiar in front of Yan Li, and it would be convenient to ask for a sword in the future.

More of them are Huaichun chivalrous women, trying to take a closer look at the most revered "hero" Shang Shaoyan in their hearts, and by the way, show their heroic posture in front of all young heroes.

The banquet was scheduled for noon, but everyone from all sides arrived an hour early. In addition to the scheduled third-floor hall of the Hengjiang Gang, the upper and lower floors of the Jiantao Pavilion were all full.

Yan Li arrived not early. It wasn't until a quarter of noon that Yan Li, Duan Yan and Guiyun came.

This is not that Yan Li is arrogant and rude, but as the guest of honor at the banquet, if he arrives an hour early, then the banquet time is advanced or not? As for Guiyun, he came to see the excitement with curiosity in his eyes.

What really made the Hengjiang Gang feel gloomy was Yan Li's opening remarks:

"Everyone's hospitality, Yan is grateful. Please forgive me for being injured and not allowed to drink. ”

Can't drink alcohol?

This is a rare wine banquet in martial arts! You are the guest of honor, but you don't drink a drop of wine, so where will you put the face of the Hengjiang Gang?

The Hengjiang gang who were originally standing at the door of Jiantao Pavilion to greet them stretched their faces at that time.

A few hot-tempered gangsters immediately wanted to change the scene, change from Jiantao Pavilion to Hero Fight, and wait for the subordinates on both sides to see the real chapter, and then use each other's blood to come back and drink!

"Wait!"

Standing high on the upper floor of the restaurant, overlooking everything, Zou Tonggao, the helmsman of the Hengjiang Gang, shouted.

Zou Tong heard Yan Li's opening remarks clearly, and he was also very unhappy in his heart. He is also a dignified congenital master, although he is only barely breaking through, and he is absolutely at the bottom of the congenital level, but it is not something that anyone can provoke. He personally posted a banquet, and personally stood in the restaurant to greet him, this little ghost who didn't have any hair and didn't grow up to say that he didn't drink alcohol! Could it be that the wine of the Hengjiang Gang is unpleasant?

I'm afraid that it's a toast and don't eat and drink!

However, he only glanced at Yan Li one more time before he changed his mind and suppressed his anger.

Yan Li's reputation as a sword-casting master is just a sword fight with the Iron Cloak Workshop. In the eyes of old rivers and lakes such as Zou Tong, the helmsman of the Hengjiang Gang, it can only be said that he can barely be regarded as the number one person, and it is good to win over the future star, but it is not a big deal to offend.

What really made Zou Tong care was Yan Li's cultivation.

That's right, it's cultivation.

Yan Li has practiced the Yunhe Palm for a day, purely in terms of realm, it is just a level of physical strengthening, and in the eyes of ordinary people, it is no different from no martial arts.

But as a congenital master, how powerful is Zou Tong's vision?

He could see at a glance that when this young man walked, his limbs were coordinated, as light as a fly, as steady as a rock, and he had obviously practiced superior martial arts. In particular, Yan Li has faint qi veins flowing all over his body, indicating that he has developed internal breath at the inconspicuous level of strengthening the body, combining the three basic levels of strengthening the body, relaxing the muscles, and nourishing the qi into one.

This means that the young man in front of him not only has a profound martial arts inheritance, but also has a terrifying surname and roots.

The most important thing is that Zou Tong clearly knew that when he was fighting with the Iron Cloak Workshop three days ago, he didn't have the slightest martial arts! That is to say, it only took less than three days for the young man in front of him to have such a cultivation!

"According to this progress, it won't take more than a year for this kid to break through the quenching level and become a master......" Zou Tong came to an unbelievable conclusion. He is old in the rivers and lakes, and he deeply understands that this kind of young man with unlimited potential must either be completely wiped out, or he must not be offended, otherwise there will be no good fruit to eat in the future.

As for the cultivator Guiyun, the realm is far above Zou Tong, but he can't see it. With Guiyun's age, it will not attract attention, and everyone ignores him.

Therefore, he shouted loudly to stop the Hengjiang Gang, and then jumped down from the Sword Tao Pavilion several feet high, stood firmly in front of Yan Li, and laughed loudly:

"Hahaha...... Master Yan is really a straightforward person! Old man Zou Tong, this is polite. ”

Yan Li hugged his fists and returned the salute, "I have admired the prestige of the helmsman for a long time, and I am honored to see it today......

Zou Tong appeared on the stage in person, and after a few words of greeting, a little embarrassment disappeared. Yan Li ascended the Jiantao Pavilion under the gaze of countless eyes.

With the arrival of noon, the whole Jiantao Pavilion is more noisy, cups, plates and bowls are listed, and they are staggered everywhere. All of them here are heroes, drinking in big bowls, eating meat, and having their own heroism.

In the hall on the third floor of Jiantao Pavilion, a stage was set up, and the show opened on the hour at noon.

And the repertoire that was staged was beyond everyone's expectations.

"A Hammer Breaks the Sword and Makes a Grudge".

The story tells the story of the humble boy in Jianchuan City, who went through all kinds of hardships, and when Engong was in danger, he had no choice but to take action, and fought with the evil young minions who originally bullied him, and finally achieved a brilliant victory.

The protagonist, of course, is Yan Li. At this time, the opera did not shy away from it, and all the characters directly used their real names.

This drama started from the door-to-door sword fight in the Iron Cloak Workshop until Duan Yan won the competition in the ring.

The first to appear on the stage was the white-nosed clown Han Tong, the oily-haired and powdery Xiaosheng Han Lin, and the heroic and mighty Wind and Fire Forging Young Master Duan Yan.

Of course, only Duan Shao has his own opinions:

"Flower face! Why am I a flower face! I am still a blue face! I am a young master, not a young village master!"

The crowd laughed. In fact, Duan Yan is very proud to be on the stage, the blue flower face represents the heroes of the green forest, and it is also a good positioning, he is just complaining and playing.

In the limelight, "Yan Li" played by Shang Shaoyan appeared with the applause of countless heroes and the screams of many chivalrous women.

The appearance of "Yan Li" is somewhat similar to reality: coarse cloth clothes, and the whole body is still wrapped in a medicinal cloth. Just for the stage effect, he was not covered with medicinal cloth like Yan Li at that time, and only showed a pair of eyes.

"I was born and raised in Jianchuan City, but living in my own house is like a displacement. Since I was a child, I didn't know where my father was, and my mother's surname was Yan Li. The steward withheld grain and rice, and the servant often deceived me. Geniuses have never used force, and Jinglun has nowhere to show his magic skills. I worked as a handyman in the iron-clad workshop, and the owner thought that my status was low, so he taught me the art of sword casting.

"The old mother in the family was weak, so she had to succumb to her nose. The old mother died and was even more helpless, and the lady came to force her with a whip. said that I was abandoned by the heavens, and beat me all over my body. If it weren't for the righteousness of the benevolent public, he would be a ghost and a sorrowful ......"

Shang Shaoyan is worthy of the first place in Jianchuan, and the sorrow and helplessness flowing from his clear voice are appropriate, exuding a strong infectious power. The noise in the restaurant disappeared for a moment, and only a few girls covered their noses and sobbed.

The stage then sang: "I don't complain, the Han Mansion is bullied by each other, although it is poor, there is still food and clothing; I don't complain, the master does not pass on the art of forging swords, and he is justified in screening disciples; I do not complain, I am lonely and miserable, and I am destined to be the will of God." Even if my wife put me to death, as fierce as a tiger and a wolf, I can put aside my grievances and drift away in search of life.

He shouldn't have taken chivalrous bones as child's play and insulted his ancestors like crows; he shouldn't have confessed his mistakes and become angry on the street, and hired murderers to carry out night raids! He shouldn't have provoked a sword fight to force each other bitterly, and it was against the principles of heaven to kill them all! At this time, Engong was still unconscious, and there was nowhere to call for a famous doctor; as soon as the sword fighting was opened, the horns of the sheep were confronting; the tiger and wolf were standing outside the door, who could retreat from the enemy? I, I, and I ...... I'm Yan Li, I listened to the hammer through the sword theory through the wall, I came to understand the heavenly machine at the age of sixteen, and I raised obscurity in my life to avoid the robbery, how can I do it...... Why can't the destiny of heaven go against people's wishes, and finally teach me to avoid it!"

With a sound of "there is no way to avoid it", the tune of the soundtrack flickered, and the "Yan Li" on the stage finally made up his mind, lamented to the end, held his head high, and showed a heroic posture under the sackcloth cloth, and sang passionately:

"Straighten your chest and raise righteousness, like the waves of the sword river crashing on the embankment. The husband should be chivalrous, not avoiding relatives and not afraid of the enemy. Why bother to be sharp when casting a sword, the chivalrous bone pill is in the heart of heaven and earth. How can the clown who jumps the beam mention it, and when he comes out of the sword, he will sweep away the yin. Today, it is said that Jiao'er and others, open your eyes, and see what it means to be one-man, sword, and one!"

These generous lyrics swept away the haze of foreplay, and everyone present was enthusiastic. Under this fiery atmosphere, Shang Shaoyan strode out and read: "Take the scrap iron sword, the iron clothes shop should be closed!"

"Wow-"

"Okay—"

The audience applauded one after another.

Zou Tong picked up the wine cup in a timely manner and toasted Yan Li, "Master Yan is heroic, a young hero, it is really the back waves of the Yangtze River pushing the front waves, it really makes me wait for the old and embarrassed!"

"The seniors have won the award!" Yan Li replied with tea instead of wine, "If there is no inheritance and teaching of your predecessors, how can our juniors know what chivalry is?

"Well said, well said. Zou Tong nodded happily.

In fact, Yan Li had other ideas at this time: Shang Shaoyan's play seems to be appropriate for the time and place, and it is more in line with the consistent values of the Jianchuan people, and it seems to be perfect. But Yan Li always felt that there was another deep meaning in it - this play came too fast after all, and the timing was too coincidental.

Anyway, Yan Li and Han Lin are half-brothers, which can't contain the fire in the paper. Han Lin died in the ring, and there will always be people who say that this is fratricide and Yan Li is unkind.

It's always a hassle.

But Shang Shaoyan performed a play "A Hammer Broken Sword and Enmity" with great fanfare, in the lyrics just now, he repeatedly showed that Yan Li was miserable in his childhood, and he was forced to be helpless when he appeared in the sword fight, and he also counted Han Lin's crimes, saying that they were heinous, and they were innocent of death, and my generation of chivalrous people was just righteous to kill their relatives.

As soon as this play came out, no one in Jianchuan City said that Yan Li was unkind to kill his brother, which reduced countless troubles for him.

However, Yan Li and Shang Shaoyan don't know each other, why does this big star help Yan Li with this? Is there something to ask for, or is there someone behind it?

If it's the former, then it's easy to say, and if it's the latter...... Hehe, I'm afraid that behind the identity of this illegitimate son of the Han family, there is another mystery.
