son-in-law

Chapter 1045

The time of the party was warm and fun, but everyone had something to do, and then they would naturally disperse.Ning Ji returned home and continued to practice martial arts based on today's insights, and did not monitor the little cheap dog.

The second day is Qixi Festival, which is a time for women to pray to the moon and look forward to marriage. For men, the main program is to worship Kuixing and pray for fame.The Huaxia Army held a lot of activities on this day, and the most lively one was probably the preferential reward activities for several designated exam books in the book market.

For example, the price of folding the beautifully printed collection "The Principle of Gewu" into an ordinary rough print, the quality of the paper alone is exciting.Since the various detailed rules of the exam were issued only yesterday, a large number of scholars went to buy them on this day, which caused congestion in various specialty stores, and many great scholars and celebrities stayed above the nearby teahouses to recognize people. After a lot of scolding, some people shouted that this is a conspiracy of the Huaxia Army, just to make everyone split up and call for unity.

Most of the people who came forward to buy books were poor scholars, some bowed their heads and ran away after buying books, and some were justified and didn't care about the accusations of a group of great Confucians.By the afternoon of this day, there were gradually many situations where others were asked to come forward to "purchase on behalf of others", and the Huaxia Army did not stop it. The purchase limit for each person here is two sets, one for personal use, and the other for free. Take it and secretly sell it to others.

The frenzy was accompanied by the excitement of the festival, and Ning Ji, who was working in the tournament venue that day, heard the outsiders talking about it.There were also scholars on the nearby streets fighting in groups, causing the crowd and martial artists who were watching the competition in the venue to go out to watch the excitement. After returning, they sighed and said that the scene was a mess, but it was a pity that the Huaxia Army arrived too early. Failed to kill anyone.

In the next few days, the wind direction in the city will often be so restless and chaotic.For Ning Ji, what he felt most deeply was probably the fact that the number of contestants in the martial arts competition has increased significantly, and the number of martial artists with internal skills and good skills has gradually increased.

In the outside world, after one or two months of gathering and working together, the leaders of both literati and warriors have gained fame through this big gathering, and people with the same purpose gradually recognize their companions and gather together.

Among them, there are Confucian scholars who want to directly overwhelm the Huaxia Army in terms of knowledge, and it is most upright to show their faces; some scholars who have strong thoughts in their hearts and become more wary of the Huaxia Army began to sneak under the water, secretly contacting like-minded people; some scholars swayed from side to side , the most idle; there are also a very small number of people who have accepted the concepts of the four peoples, the study of things, and the enlightenment of the Huaxia Army, and began to show their chariots and horses against those great Confucians-of course, it is not easy to say how many of them are spies. .

In terms of martial arts, several internal masters finally began to show overwhelming strength in the competition field, which made Ning Ji's enthusiasm for watching the competition slightly increased.It's just that with the news that the Huaxia Army will select talents from the martial arts competition, the martial artist's desire to perform has become stronger, and accidents that interrupt people's hands and feet often occur, which greatly increases his workload.

Sometimes that Huangshan would come over to say hello to him and chat with him.These scoundrels haven't started their work yet, Ning Ji has already started to hate them.

Work during the day, hang out at night, go to Wen Shoubin to listen to all kinds of weird speeches, and then watch Qu Longjun who has been locked in the yard all day.After a long time, he found that women are really scary.

Since coming to Chengdu, Qu Longjun has been locked up in the courtyard for more than a month, seeing the same scenery every day, he didn’t feel bored—Ning Ji ran around in the mountains since he was a child, learning martial arts from masters, Watching the military training, there are also girls among my childhood friends. They all learned martial arts from Aunt Hongti and Aunt Gua. They are usually just like boys, and they are vicious. Ning Ji felt a headache.For these girls, they can be alive and kicking in the wild without food for ten days, but if they are locked up in the yard for three days like Qu Longjun's, they will probably cry for their father and mother.

It's really a specialization in the art industry...

When the bad guys were talking nonsense and their subordinates didn't take any action at all, Ning Ji's thoughts became more and more distracted. Looking at Qu Longjun, he didn't want to kill him every day like before.

After he came down from the battlefield, he went to meet the families of many deceased comrades-in-arms, and then he heard that these enemies were coming to make trouble, so he was already full of anger, pointing at whoever committed the crime to him, and then raised his sword.Unexpectedly, after a month of surveillance, such ambitions were wiped out by the enemies.Sometimes Qu Longjun would be in a daze downstairs, and he would be in a daze upstairs, thinking that these people are really pathetic, exasperating and pitiful.

In this way, after the hottest—and actually not uncomfortable—dog days, on July 14th, Chen Fan, his brothers and sisters-in-law and others all came to celebrate his birthday.In the evening, Aunt Gua and his father, who are busy with everything, also sneaked in to encourage him to study and improve in the future and make progress every day. This is the clear early autumn when he just turned [-] years old.

Time passed day by day, and the restless Chengdu on the bright side, people can't see too many signs of chaos...

**************
In July and a half, Zhongyuan, yellow paper and white flags floated in the sky, and occasionally paper tied with a bull's head and a horse's face paraded past the street during the day.

Qu Longjun counted paper money in the north-facing corner of the courtyard, paying homage to his father who died at the hands of the Huaxia Army many years ago.

In various places in the Chengdu Plain, there are also large and small sacrificial offerings going on.Under the peaceful sunlight, on the north side of Meizhou, in a prison camp near the First Division of the Fifth Huaxia Army, Wanyan Qingjue stood in a high fence, watching the cavalry gathering and setting off not far away.

"what happened?"

"Han Dog, what happened..."

"Someone come to rescue us?"

This prisoner camp is not big, and there are many selected high-level prisoners of war in the middle.They already knew that they would be taken to Chengdu to participate in the prisoner offering ceremony in half a month.This will be one of the most humiliating moments for the Jurchen clan in the past 40 years, but it is beyond imagination.

However, at this moment, a group of Jurchen nobles and generals with full war minds saw the unusualness of the Huaxia Army's expedition this time. When some unexpected situation happened, everyone's thoughts inevitably became vivid.

Of course, looking at the guards around the camp, they understand that escape is impossible, and they can only hope that the Marshal or Gu Shen will come up with a good way to rescue them...

Looking back to Chengdu, in the afternoon, Xigua had already packed up his luggage, took a team of personal guards, and was about to mount his horse and leave Yingbin Road.Ning Yi sent her a paragraph: "This time, take care."

"I'm leaving, and you take care too. I always feel that some people can't hold back anymore." Watermelon held her husband's hand, with a slightly embarrassed look on her face, "Otherwise, call Sister Hongti to come over..."

"There are so many people here, and Chen Fan is watching in secret, what are you mother-in-law and mother?" Ning Yi smiled, "It's easier for them to fall in after you leave, don't worry, what can a few gangsters do? Come on, your man has experienced many battles, anyone who comes will die."

"... After all, it's the blood-handed massacre of Megatron." Xigua hesitated, but still laughed.

Ning Yi slapped her: "Okay, don't be silly. Just go out of the city with great fanfare."

The two expressed their respect to each other again, and Xigua led her bodyguards to ride towards the west gate of Chengdu. Along the way, she could feel unusual gazes.

……

At the same time, the old man Lu Liutong was sitting in the upper seat as the most important guest at a party. In the courtyard, some young martial artists were competing with each other, and he and some martial arts seniors beside him gave advice.

"Martial arts, the most important thing is this kind of communication. Speaking of it, during the Jianshuo period, the fall of the Central Plains also relatively promoted the southern spread of the northern boxing. You can see that the traces of the north and the south are very clear in the boxing of these two. ...According to the old man, yes, it is a good thing, it means that there is communication, it is very clear, it is a bad thing, it means that there is not enough communication..."

Although he is old, he also has not weak knowledge. After some pointers, everyone nodded in admiration.The two young martial artists who got advice were even more delighted, they both felt that listening to the words of these martial arts seniors was better than practicing at home for ten years.

At the venue of the martial arts competition, Lu Liutong's son Lu Xiaolun broke his opponent's leg with a yellow clay hand.The referee declared him victorious, but he was still talking to the opponent, watching the man rolling over with his broken leg in his arms, he laughed endlessly: "I told you to jump, you can't jump anymore!"

The young doctor who jumped onto the stage to treat the wounded man with a broken leg pushed him away, with a cold and unhappy face: "Don't block it, you won."

"Hey, he can't heal this injury, don't bother, he's limping!"

"Go away."

The young doctor squatted on the ground and began to skillfully handle the emergency.The corner of Lu Xiaolun's eyes twitched, he has been beating people's bones all year round, and he is also good at healing, this little doctor looks very skilled in his techniques, maybe he can really cure the other party by [-]% or [-]%, this young little doctor may be from the battlefield The Huaxia Army going up and down—he immediately disliked the cold face of the Huaxia Army soldiers.

Just like the ungrateful guys in Ba Dao that day, his eyes are higher than the top!

After the referee announced the victory, he got off the ring, walked towards the wounded and the little doctor who were giving first aid on the spot, stood beside him and said, "Little friend, have you ever been on the battlefield?"

The little doctor had some blood on his face, his eyes were focused, and he ignored him.Lu Xiaolun then walked over to the side, walking around randomly under his feet, wanting to bend the man's broken leg again silently.

The foot was lifted up casually, and with a click, the little doctor's hand turned sideways and pressed on his thigh for some reason. The strength was not strong, and he just pushed his leg back before he exerted his strength. .In an instant, the hairs on Lu Xiaolun's back stood up, and the little doctor squatting on the ground looked up like a cold poisonous snake: "What are you doing? Walk better."

He let go of his hand as he said that, Senhan at that moment faded like a hallucination, and Lu Xiaolun walked towards the outside of the court.

There was a faint cold sweat on the back.

Lu Xiaolun is now in his early fifties. When he was young, he liked to have fun and make friends. Although he traveled around, the occasional friends really broadened his horizons. Now he can be regarded as a good martial artist in the green forest.But just at that moment, he couldn't even tell whether the little military doctor blocked him because of intuition or because of martial arts.

He just vaguely felt that if the opponent had martial arts skills and had any sharp weapon in his hand, the blood vessels in his thigh would have been cut open at that moment.Such a vital point, was pressed casually by someone, but I couldn't react. Is it because the other party has high martial arts skills, or I was careless...

Considering the age of the other party, he thinks that the biggest possibility is that he is careless.

The evening sunlight in early autumn shone on the streets of Chengdu. After meeting a younger brother who followed him, he walked towards the place where his father attended the party not far away, and he kept thinking about the little military doctor on the way.After walking a few streets like this, on a street with not many pedestrians, the junior brother beside him suddenly pulled him.Lu Xiaolun raised his head and looked forward, a tall man wearing a gray and white turban was coming towards them, his eyes were not kind.

This man is tall and tall, half a head taller than Lu Xiaolun, his hands have thick joints, his fists and knuckles are full of calluses, obviously he is also a green forest man with good art.Lu Xiaolun doesn't care about the opponent's body shape, he has learned all his life to break bones, and he is not afraid of hard skills, but some sharp kung fu with quick movements can pose a threat to him.Looking at each other at the moment, they arched their hands.

"Who is Your Excellency?"

The man walked evenly, shaking his fist, and was still coming: "Lu Xiaolun, the successor of the old man Liutong, has been talking about the flaws of Ba Dao in the city recently. Let me try your martial arts. Let me help."

Recently, Lu Xiaolun and his father participated in various grand events, and also paid attention to the masters who flooded into Chengdu to participate in the martial arts competition during this period, but they didn't have any impression of this person in front of them.The opponent's attitude was calm, and in a blink of an eye, he came to the front of him, with his hands open, leaning on his figure, he really had the aura of devouring the world.Lu Xiaolun charged forward.

The arms of the two smashed each other head-on twice in the air, Lu Xiaolun only felt pain in his arms, he closed his arms, and grabbed the opponent's left arm with the kung fu of eagle claws. roar!
This punch came up along the left side of the ribs, Lu Xiaolun's head rang, he felt his internal organs were turning over, he was about to spit out the last night's meal, and the surging pain spread to his head, the next moment, his eagle claws couldn't hold it any longer The opponent's arm, the opponent took a step back, punched him in the face, then grabbed him and took a step, spinning and throwing him away.

Lu Xiaolun's body rolled seven to eight feet on the road, and the ground was covered with loess flying up.The younger brother who was standing next to him was about to rush forward, but the big man punched down with his big fist, knocking him to the ground and fainting.

Lu Xiaolun vomited a mouthful of blood on the ground and wanted to get up, but struggled unsuccessfully because his stomach was churning endlessly.The big man didn't think he was going to kill him. Looking at the pair of senior brothers on the road, he finally shook his head: "Oh, it's just trying to gain fame..."

"You are, you... are..."

Lu Xiaolun resisted the feeling of vomiting all the time, and spoke with difficulty.After 30 years in the green forest, he knows that he can be beaten, but he has to know the identity of the person who beat him, such as being beaten by Zhou Tong, Lin Zongwu, and the heart demon. It is a dazzling record.The man in front of him is so powerful, how can he be unknown.

Under the setting sun, the man didn't answer, and disappeared on the other side of the road in a blink of an eye.

……

The figure beating Lu Xiaolun walked through several streets, and when he came to the outside of the competition venue, it happened that today's competition started to end.He found a bamboo hat and put it on, and quietly looked at the resumes and deeds of the "masters" in front of the roadside billboards, estimated their martial arts skills, and hoped to see some clues about the power of the Huaxia Army. , or, hope to find out how powerful the heart demon's martial arts are.

Over the past few days, he has also carefully searched for possible trustworthy companions several times. He thought how powerful the Lu family, who was boasted like the leader of the green forest and seemed to have some problems with Ba Dao, would be. Another rat.

Looking at the crowd coming out of the tournament venue, his gaze was a little complicated.He has practiced boxing all his life and loved martial arts. If it was possible, he originally wanted to join such a battle of masters and explore the reality of martial artists in the world.

But it doesn't matter.

This time it was Zuo Xiang Tieyan who personally visited and begged him to leave the mountain.

A scholar dies for a confidant.

I had to let go of some small pleasures.

Wang Xiangfo thought so in his heart.

After seeing this for a while, he walked forward and left the street.On the side of the road, the little doctor who bought a portion of pork head and carried it on his way home passed him by.

*************
As the sun sinks into the horizon, people gather in privacy.

"...If you don't do anything else, the Huaxia Army is going to enter the city after dealing with the surrounding affairs."

"...The meeting today is for this matter."

"...This afternoon, Liu Xigua led people out of the city."

"...she has an urgent matter to attend to."

"...After the Battle of the Southwest, the Huaxia Army captured nearly 4 Jin soldiers, and surrendered to the Han Army, totaling tens of thousands..."

"...The resettlement and recruitment of these people, the handling of the entire Sichuan Fourth Road, and various aftermaths have exhausted the strength of the Fifth Chinese Army..."

"...they are going to pull out their hands, and at the beginning of August, they will hold a military parade to present prisoners..."

"...to be militaristic."

"...It's useless to scold..."

"...The Huaxia Army needs time to deal with things. Our people are not coming fast. There is a lot of noise outside now. Now it seems that if we don't do anything for a while, these scholars will fight among themselves..."

"...I want to do something, I only have this time..."

"...Fortunately, something happened to the old bull head next to them..."

"...Ba Dao surnamed Liu came forward to calm the situation. I heard that the First Division of the Fifth Huaxia Army had received the order and dispatched urgently. As a result, their strength will be tight for a few days..."

"... During the Mid-Yuan Festival, the gate of ghosts will be opened. It's only a few days away... What do you guys think?"

……

……

……

After a long silence, someone knocked his finger off.

boom.

"...It will definitely be able to respond to all calls."

……

……

In the yard, Ning Ji, who came back a little late, lit the yellow paper, put the pig's head in front of him, and paid homage to the three or two people in his memory.The autumn night was even more pleasant. He was not yet at the age to really understand the meaning of the sacrifice. After talking for a while, he ate the pork head with rice.

The summer is over, and I am one year older, and the atmosphere outside is peaceful, which is completely different from the atmosphere before the Jurchens came.There may be no more fighting and killing in the future.

……Disappointed.
