Guo Jia didn't expect that he was almost tied up and ran behind by talking about it-it's not easy to take advantage of Zheng Ping.

There was a hint of helplessness in this mocking smile, but he didn't show any embarrassment because he couldn't get off the tiger, as if he didn't realize the coercion in Li Jin's words, he said calmly:

"Since the two of you are elegant, Jiazi sweeps the couch to welcome you."

The edge came out of its sheath and was blocked by neither soft nor hard, Li Jin couldn't say anything more.What's more, according to Zheng Ping's reaction just now, it is obvious that he and Guo Jia are old acquaintances. Although the words were not polite, there was no targeted hostility.Instead, he advocated without authorization and was a villain in vain.

He took away the thorns on his body and said to Guo Jia: "Offended."

"It's okay."

On the other side, Cao Pi, who was all focused on Zheng Ping and didn't pay much attention to the swordsman next to him, couldn't help but look at Li Jin a few more times because of this episode.

"This righteous man looks familiar..." Cao Pi accurately captured a name with his excellent memory, "But Li Jixian, Li Yishi?"

"Exactly."

Cao Pi said with confidence: "Thanks to Li Yishi's righteous action that day, he helped the vanguard of our army escape from the predicament. I heard that Li Yishi is good at fencing. If there is a chance, I must ask the righteous man for advice."

Although Li Jin is not a blind person, he has a bit of the straightness of a modern steel straight man in his bones.Hearing Cao Pi's words, Li Jin was not overwhelmed by flattery, nor did he humbly express that he didn't dare to take the lead, but said knowingly:

"The second son also likes fencing? Zhengping's swordsmanship is superb, why don't the second son compete with Zhengping?"

The friendly conversation with the martyrs was just like that, and the scene was once very embarrassing.

It's not that Cao Pi didn't know that Zheng Ping was good at swordsmanship. After all, he had seen Zheng Ping kill two thieves with extremely fast sword moves.

But knowing it is one thing, but being able to muster up the courage to challenge Zheng Ping to a duel is another.Regardless of whether it is a competition of words or martial arts, it takes a lot of courage to challenge Zheng Ping actively.This is not to say that Cao Pi was intimidated by Zheng Ping's force value and did not dare to compete with him. It was Zheng Ping's venom that really stopped him.

Once Cao Pi was also excited, remembering the stunning sword light in the chaos, and wanted to learn from Zheng Ping.But when he fell asleep with this idea excitedly, that night, he had a particularly realistic nightmare.

In the dream, he fought Zheng Ping twice.

In the first game, Zheng Ping won.Zheng Ping launched the Poison Tongue Technique and criticized his sword skills from the beginning to the end. The sharp words and the bleak situation made Cao Pi fight like a fight.

Cao Pi tried to make Zheng Ping stop his mental attack, but in exchange for more ferocious cynicism.In the end, Cao Pi was stabbed in the cold for an entire hour.

After finally making it to the second round, Cao Pi turned grief and anger into motivation, developed unlimited potential, and finally defeated Zheng Ping with one move.

Before he could be happy, he saw Zheng Ping going mad, suddenly took off his shirt, grabbed him and beat him on the drum at the gate of the yamen.

Cao Pi, who was awakened by the fright, was sluggish for a day, and since then he could no longer have the idea of ​​fighting swords with Zheng Ping.

Although based on the past experience of getting along, he knew that Zheng Ping was not an unreasonable person, and he was not as sharp-edged as he was to his father, but with a little rare tolerance.But that dream was too realistic and terrifying, plus Mi Heng did have a record of stripping and messing around because of madness in the past. When he beat the drum and scolded, he broke a drum, which is really frightening. I have lingering fears.

Therefore, when Li Jin asked him why he didn't ask Zheng Ping to invite him to fight, he not only felt a little embarrassed, but also recalled everything in the dream vividly, and his eardrums and brain suddenly felt pain as if he was there.

Cao Pi didn't want the "beautiful" dream to come true. Cao Pi tried his best to think carefully about the sentence, and wanted to expose this matter logically.But before he had time to speak, Zheng Ping said first:

"My sword is not suitable for fighting, maybe I want to disappoint the Second Young Master."

Cao Pi couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief, and at the same time felt a little bit ashamed.He over-arranged the other party in his dream, but in reality, "You Shishi" never felt sorry for him, and gave him a step down... Was he too deeply influenced by the rumors and had an excessive prejudice against You Shishi?

Zheng Ping didn't know what Cao Pi was thinking at the moment.In fact, what he said just now was not to smooth things over, but to tell the truth.

His sword is really not suitable for fighting, because he only knows how to kill people.

Probably to ease the atmosphere, or perhaps to make up for something, Cao Pi said to the others:

"It's not as good as swords, but you can also play with other things. The weather is just right today, suitable for hunting. The servants at home have newly raised a few horses. Are you interested in riding with Pi?"

Guo Jia had a long discussion with Cao Cao on business matters in the room, because his legs were stiff due to kneeling for a long time, it was time to relax.For Cao Pi's proposal, he was the first to agree.

Zheng Ping did not refuse.He had something to discuss with Cao Pi, and it was inconvenient to talk at Cao Cao's gate, and he didn't want to go to the garden to enjoy the flowers, so riding a horse to the outskirts of the city was a good choice.

As for Li Jin, as the temporary guest of the Han family, he was traveling with Zheng Ping, so naturally he had no objection.

So several people went to the stables to lead the horses, and followed by the guards of Cao's family, they left the city one after another.

Cao Pi always felt that he seemed to have forgotten something, but he only remembered for a moment, and this doubt was washed away by the joy of riding the horse lightly.

The guard respectfully handed over the longbow carved with swan patterns, Cao Pi took it, and drew the bow to draw the string.

In the Sikong Mansion, Cao Cao faced the case book as tall as a mountain alone with a disheveled face.

"Rebel."

Let the old man deal with the business affairs of the house alone, and it's fine if he doesn't help, why should he discuss going out to play at his door?Keep a low profile, can't we discuss it after leaving this courtyard?

Cao Cao stared at the thick bamboo slips for a long time, but the bamboo slips were as motionless as a mountain, and it was still the heavy workload.Cao Cao's hand holding the pen tightened and loosened, loosened and tightened, and finally continued to work resignedly.

Cao Pi, who won the first prize, sneezed suddenly.

Seeing the guard coming back with the prey he shot, and reporting to him respectfully, "Second Young Master hit the head and hit the prey's neck", Cao Pi showed a rare happy smile in line with his age group.

"Several, do you want to compete in riding and shooting?"

No one refused, and he added, "If there is only a competition without rewards and punishments, it will not only be boring, but you will not be able to do your best. How about setting a ranking, the top two will be rewarded, and the bottom two will be punished?"

Guo Jia wrinkled his face and said, "Second Young Master, although Jia is good at riding and shooting, he is definitely not as good as the other three. Isn't this destined to be punished?"

Cao Pi said: "It's good for Guo Jijiu to do his best. As for this punishment... how about punishing you to pay us wine?"

Guo Jia's premeditated plan succeeded, and there is no reason why he shouldn't.

"As it should be."

Zheng Ping saw that he was hiding his sly eyes, so he couldn't help but raise his eyes: "Guo Jijiu's penalty is just what he wants, so he can touch the water logically? It's better to rank them in three or four. If Guo Jijiu can get the third place, then he will be punished with Rewarding wine is a punishment; if Guo Jijiu is the bottom line... other punishments are needed."

Guo Jia wrinkled his face again, and said bitterly:

"Just treat me like a fish for a day, let me sink, why bother with me?"

"If you were a fish, I'd eat it with my chopsticks. How can a little 'difficulty' be good?"

Guo Jia sighed heavily, deeply feeling that your heart is sinister.

Li Jin comforted heartlessly at the side: "Don't worry too much about Guo Jijiu, what if Zhengping is not good at riding and shooting?"

Zheng Pingdao: "I'm really not good at riding and shooting."

Guo Jia's gaze clearly represented disbelief.

Seeing this, Zheng Ping didn't give any further explanations. He bent his bow and shot/arrow, and his movements revealed a smooth beauty, which made him look like a veteran.

Then, an arrow shot out, brushing the prey's hair and sinking into the grass.

The frightened prey fled in an instant, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Guo Jia originally thought that Zheng Ping shot sideways on purpose, and in order to prove what he said was "not good at riding and shooting", he invited himself to compete with him.

Others had the same thought.But when Zheng Ping shot a few more arrows, each of which accurately avoided the target, the other three began to doubt his words.

Li Jin even asked bluntly: "Zhengping, are you serious? Shouldn't you let us have a few of them first, and then show off their power at the end and catch up with us?"

Zheng Ping said calmly: "Could it be that you like to take off your hakama before you fart, is it unnecessary?"

Li Jin has long been immune to Zheng Ping's Ni-style spraying method, and he didn't feel embarrassed when he got this reply, he just looked at Zheng Ping in surprise: "You are really not good at riding and shooting?"

Zheng Pingran said: "It is true that I am not good at archery."

At this time, Guo Jia had killed three prey, only one or two behind Li Jin and Cao Pi.Hearing Zheng Ping's words, he teased again: "I thought Zhengping was ruthless, making things difficult for me. I never thought that Zhengping would pity me so much. It's not easy to be first and second, but Jia is disrespectful for this No.3."

After saying this, Zheng Ping glanced at him sideways, with deep meaning in his eyes.

Guo Jia's intuition was not good, and before he could figure out why, he heard Zheng Ping ask Cao Pi: "Is today's hunting limited to bows and arrows?"

Cao Pi vaguely guessed why Zheng Ping asked such a question.He didn't have any embarrassing thoughts, and gave a broad answer: "As long as the prey can be caught, it doesn't matter."

After a pause, he couldn't match the curiosity in his heart, and reminded, "It's just that the efficiency is not high if you use other methods. If you plant a trap, you may not be able to catch a prey in half a day."

Thinking of this, Cao Pi murmured in his heart.

Is Zheng Ping going to use a spear/gun/to insert prey?Even if he has this ability, there is no spear/gun here.What's more, they hunted together, if they found the prey, before Zheng Ping stepped forward, the other three would have shot the prey with their arrows.

Zheng Ping didn't take Cao Pi's reminder to heart: "Don't bury the prey."

He took out a handful of feathered arrows from the arrow basket, and with a little force, four or five arrows snapped off, leaving only the arrowheads.

Before the rest of the people could be amazed by this skill, they were stunned by his behavior, surprised and puzzled:

"This is……?"

Could it be that Zheng Ping vented his anger on the broken arrow because he gave up archery?

The first reaction that popped up because of shock was quickly overruled by several people.They all knew that Zheng Ping was not someone who would vent his anger in this way.

Under the doubtful gazes of several people, Zheng Ping turned his backhand, and a poisonous snake that suddenly jumped out of the forest was stabbed seven inches by an arrowhead with only one arrow left, and nailed to a tree not far away.

Cao Pi and the others lost their expressions one after another, especially Guo Jia, whose usual calm smile froze for a moment. He looked at the dead poisonous snake in disbelief, and then at the remaining few snakes in Zheng Ping's hand in disbelief. Arrowhead.

Zheng Ping casually beat two man-eating vultures, and then turned to Guo Jia: "What did Feng Xiao say just now? I didn't hear clearly, only the word pity?"
