The sky was slightly bright. The door of the guest room was actually opened. Before Chen Ziang turned around, he heard Zhang Buhui's voice: "Master Chen is finally back. I have been anxious for you all night." Sitting beside him was Zhou Mei'er, who saw Chen Ziang for a while.

I was so happy that I heard Zhang Buhui joking again and couldn't help but blush.

Zhou Meier turned around and said, "You haven't been waiting for most of the night." Zhang Buhui stopped joking about Zhou Meier and clapped his hands and said, "I really came to ask Master Chen for help." It turned out that Zhang Buhui had made an appointment with the horse dealer Hu Ge to buy horses.

, but it happened that this time his opponent was the second brother Li again. He thought that he was not sure of winning, so he came to Chen Ziang for help.

Chen Ziang asked suspiciously: "I always feel that the second brother Li seems familiar." Zhang Buhui smiled and said: "You have met before. He is Li Chang's subordinate. Li Chang from Tsinghua Building, brother, do you still remember him?" Chen Ziang suddenly understood.

Said: "No wonder they are so familiar. It turns out to be Li Qingshan. I have dealt with them several times in Lingnan, why are they here selling horses?"

Zhang Buhui said: "It is said that because of Li Chang's meritorious service in suppressing the bandits in Lingnan, the Queen of Heaven promoted him to the fifth rank of guerrilla general. He will soon go to the Shanyu Protector's Mansion to assist General Cheng Wuting in conquering the Qin Bashan tribe." Chen Ziang made a sound.

, and asked: "You are fighting in one place, and you are still fighting with General Cheng?"

Zhang Buhui sighed: "Nowadays, there are raging wars at the border. What's missing is horses. Whoever has cavalry will naturally be rewarded for his meritorious service. How can Li Chang not compete with General Cheng for horses? He was appointed by the Queen of Heaven and God Qiu."

People." Chen Ziang nodded and said: "I will definitely help Brother Zhang capture these troops and horses."

"Well, there are five thousand horses, which is not a small number. General Cheng must be waiting for these horses on the front line." Zhou Meier clenched her fists.

***

In just over half a month, Chen Ziang came to Luo Di for the third time. Outside the peach groves around Luo Di, there were also patches of peonies in bloom. The duel took place at the same place as last time, far away from the royal palace and in the garrison.

Out of sight of the military.

Zhang Buhui prepared a blue cloth night uniform for him, and covered his face with a piece of black cloth. The two stood with their hands folded, hearing the cold wind blowing across the plain.

At this time, we are still half a year away from May when peonies bloom, so it seems a bit monotonous. The peony leaves in the flower bed are swaying slightly on the branches with clear backbones. The continuous peony flower bed makes people imagine the beauty of the flowers when they bloom.

Brilliant situation.

Suddenly there were one or two dog barks in the distance, but two figures were seen coming quickly. When they arrived in front of the two of them, one of them said in a deep voice: "Isn't Fatty Liu here yet?" Chen Zi'ang was also confused. It turned out that these two figures

There is no businessman like Brother Liu among them.

"Haha, you all violated the rules. You agreed to fight one-on-one, why did you bring people here?" The voice came from behind a peach blossom at the bottom of the slope. It was Brother Liu who was as fat as a ball. Chen Ziang said again.

To my surprise, it turned out that he had been hiding close by for a long time, and he didn't notice it. Could it be that Brother Liu is also a rare master in the martial arts world.

Zhang Buhui smiled and said: "I will fight against Brother Chen today. I recognize the outcome. How can you say I violated the rules?" The two people over there kept looking at the masked Chen Zi'ang and heard Zhang Buhui say: "

With the words "Brother Chen", the sturdy man behind him sneered: "Nice to meet, good to meet, good to meet Master Chen again. If I guess correctly, this Brother Chen should be Chen Zi'ang, who was so powerful in southern Guangdong a few days ago."

He stood at the outermost edge of the five people, but his demeanor seemed to overwhelm the entire audience. Chen Ziang was even more surprised when he heard that he seemed to know him. The strong man loosened his fists and simply opened his night robe. He was actually wearing a shimmering armor.

It's the armored man who was with Xiaolan the day before yesterday!

Zhang Buhui was stunned at first and murmured: "It turns out that Brother Chen is already so famous, General Zuo Jinwuqiu also knows him." Brother Liu raised the wine gourd on his waist, took a big sip, and said: "Okay, everyone who comes.

He is a famous person in the world, and he looks up to me, Xu. Haha, how happy!"

Chen Ziang never expected that this armored man turned out to be the famous Qiu Shencui, a high-ranking official in front of Wu Zetian, who actually participated in the Jianghu duel. His martial arts was not weak, much higher than that of Li Qingshan. If Chen Ziang hadn't met by chance, he would have

Not his opponent.

It turned out that Li Chang was about to go north to join the army, which was also the result of Qiu Shenzu's strong recommendation in front of Wu Zetian. Qiu Shenzu hoped that he would make military exploits this time and become his right-hand man.

Going north to fight on the grassland, cavalry was most needed, so Li Chang asked Li Qingshan to purchase horses. Li Qingshan knew that he and Zhang Buhui were equally skilled in martial arts. If he failed to win and lost these horses, his own head might not be saved. So he asked Qiu Shen.
