Chapter 496 Martial Arts Competition to Recruit a Marriage
After bidding farewell to this extremely enthusiastic aunt, Muchuan walked all the way, but found a crowd of onlookers in the village square.
There should be a contest for marriage ahead.
Muchuan also guessed this through the information provided by his aunt just now.
Although Muchuan has no interest in martial arts to get married, there is nothing wrong with watching the excitement.
People always like to watch the excitement, and Muchuan is no exception.
Ever since, Muchuan walked towards the crowd, intending to see what was going on.
As soon as you get closer, you can hear the sound of fighting, which sounds quite fierce.
Muchuan was very curious and wanted to see how strong this Zhao girl was.
After pushing away the crowd and looking over, Muchuan felt a little surprised.
A man and a woman armed with blunt weapons were fighting each other.
It was said to be a confrontation, but in fact it was a one-sided crushing.
The man was beaten so hard by the woman that he was unable to fight back, and he didn't even have time to speak out and beg for mercy.
Muchuan could tell that if the man was distracted for even a moment, he would probably receive a solid blow.
Even if it is an unopened blunt weapon, if it hits a person at this speed, even if it does not die, it will still lose half of its life.
His kung fu is pretty good, I guess he's on the same level as Gao Kan.
Muchuan looked at it twice and made an evaluation of the woman's kung fu.
It can be seen that this woman has learned sword skills and has very solid basic skills. She has probably started practicing martial arts since she was a child.
As for the woman's appearance, Muchuan didn't think she was very beautiful, or maybe because he had seen too many beauties, he was almost immune to this kind of beauty.
However, this woman is very heroic, and she also has a different flavor in her.
While Muchuan was commenting, the man was already defeated and was knocked off his weapon by the woman. Then there was a slashing attack, which made the man scream like a pig.
Muchuan could see it clearly. From the degree of swelling where the man was hit, he could tell that the man's arm would be semi-crippled from now on.
What a cruel attack.
Muchuan clicked his tongue in his heart, but he couldn't bear to see the methods of this girl from the Zhao family.
Even if you don't plan to get married and want to dissuade applicants from applying, you can't be so cruel, right?
"They're just a bunch of idiots."
After the Zhao girl fought off the man, she glanced around coldly. Those who were eager to try all took a few steps back.
They had been watching for a long time, but none of the men who came up to compete ended well.
Those who ended up with a good outcome were beaten into pig heads; those who ended up with a bad outcome were directly beaten into a disability.
After witnessing the methods of the Zhao girl, how could anyone try to get into trouble now?
Suddenly, no one tried anymore.
In front of the temporary arena, stood a lean middle-aged man. This man looked sickly, as if he was suffering from some stubborn illness.
He looked at the Zhao girl angrily and said, "Ling Yue, I've told you many times, be careful with your actions!"
"You are so arrogant, even if we get to Chang'an City, it will be difficult to find a suitable husband for you!"
Hearing this, Muchuan also knew that the full name of this Zhao girl was Zhao Lingyue, which was quite a nice name.
As for this middle-aged man, Muchuan also guessed his identity, he must be Zhao Lingyue's father.
Muchuan was well versed in medical science, but from the appearance of the middle-aged man, he could tell what kind of disease he was suffering from.
It's not a serious illness, it's just internal injuries that have accumulated over the years, and the injuries accumulate in the chest, resulting in irregular qi and blood.
Although it is not a serious illness, if it is delayed to the point where a middle-aged man has it, it can almost be called a fatal disease. If it is not treated, he may not live for more than a month.
It is estimated that this middle-aged man is eager to marry off his daughter because he anticipates his own death and does not want his daughter to have nothing to rely on after his death.
How pitiful the hearts of parents in the world are.
"Dad, my daughter said that if she wants to marry, she will only marry a hero. If she looks like these idiots, she will get angry."
Zhao Lingyue said angrily.
The middle-aged man shook his head when he heard this, and his heart was full of bitterness.
As a down-and-out martial arts master, he had no right to find a great hero for his daughter. It was already very good to be able to find a man with some real martial arts.
He originally thought of coming to Chang'an to hold a martial arts competition to recruit a bride. After all, Chang'an is the capital city with countless talented people and strangers. Maybe he can find a potential talent for his daughter.
But after arriving all the way to Chang'an, he was directly stopped by the entrance fee.
Each person had one tael of silver, so together he and his daughter would need 4 taels of silver just to travel in and out of the city.
Four taels of silver is not a small amount, especially for a poor and down-and-out martial artist like him.
In desperation, he could only take a back seat and compete in the villages around Chang'an City to recruit brides, hoping to get a son-in-law by riding a dragon.
However, contrary to expectations, most of the people who came to sign up were farmers or speculators who had learned trivial skills.
How can those who are truly capable go to a place like this to participate in a competition to recruit a bride?
Thinking of this, the middle-aged man couldn't help but the blood surged in his chest. He couldn't hold back a mouthful of blood and spurted it out. Then his vision went black and he fell to the ground.
"father!"
Zhao Lingyue was so frightened that she dropped her blunt knife and quickly moved over.
It's a pity that she doesn't know any medical skills, so she can only worry about it.
"Doctor! Is there a doctor?"
Zhao Lingyue looked anxiously at the crowd and shouted for help.
Coincidentally, someone actually responded.
A man with a shoehorn face and pockmarked face came out.
He is inherently ugly, and his squinty eyes make him look even more sinister.
However, this shoehorned face is quite proud at this moment, because he happens to be a doctor.
"This girl, I am the doctor."
Hearing this, Zhao Lingyue was overjoyed and hurriedly asked for help: "Doctor, please save my father, I will pay as much as you want!"
Shoehorn smiled, but shook his head and said: "The money is free. I haven't married yet, and I have been attracted to the girl for a long time."
"If this is not the case, if the girl marries me, then your father will be my father-in-law. I will naturally do my best to treat my father-in-law."
"you!"
Zhao Lingyue couldn't help but widen her eyes and glared angrily.
If she hadn't been supporting her father, she would have gone up and beaten the robber to death.
The shoehorned face knew that the other party would not mess around, so he seemed quite calm.
He licked his nostrils and said with a smile: "Girl, I'm just suggesting this to you, and I'm not forcing you. If you don't want to, just don't want to."
"But, there are no doctors in these ten miles and eight villages. Why don't you go to Chang'an City to look for them? There are many doctors there."
"you!"
What a shameless person, what he said was completely mocking Zhao Lingyue.
Everyone knows that if you want to enter Chang'an City nowadays, you have to pay one or two silver dollars just for the city entrance fee. How can it be so easy to enter!
