Xiang Shaolong got into the carriage and the carriage drove out.
Long Yangjun couldn't help but leaned half of his "delicate body" over, his "exquisite eyes" were shining, and he said excitedly: "The slave family got a pass to leave the city on the pretext of enjoying the Zi River at night. All we have to do is get on the big boat and sail west.
No one can do anything to us."
Xiang Shaolong was greatly surprised and frowned: "I heard that the river is still closed by ice and snow, how can we go boating?"
Long Yangjun said: "The slave family has sent people to find out clearly. Although the land route is difficult for people and horses, the river just thawed yesterday, and there are ship owners coming to Zi. Shaolong can rest assured."
Xiang Shaolong was confused after hearing this. Did Xiao Yuetan lie?
According to the plan, if Lord Longyang colludes with Han Chuang to harm himself, after learning that Cao Qiudao is challenging him, he should immediately give up any conspiracy and see if he will die at the hands of Lao Cao before making other plans.
But looking at the seriousness of Long Yangjun now, it seems that he really wants to escape Linzi, and his enthusiasm does not seem to be fake. What is going on?
He was always straightforward with his friends and couldn't help but ask, "Aren't you afraid of Han Chuang's threat?"
Long Yangjun's "lovely body" trembled, his face turned pale, and he lost his voice: "How could Shaolong know?"
Xiang Shaolong said calmly: "Then this is really happening."
Lord Long Yang was silent for a while and sighed: "Marquis Chuang had no choice but to do so because someone under his command leaked the information to that treacherous Guo Kai. But now that Shaolong's identity is revealed, Guo Kai is in chaos and loses his footing."
After Xiang Shaolong took a closer look at Long Yangjun's expression, he wondered, "Does Han Chuang know about our escape tonight?"
Long Yangjun replied: "Of course I won't let him know. The Nu family has already taken the risk to prevent Shaolong from dying at the hands of Cao Qidao. The Nu family has seen this old guy take action before, and his sword is indeed shocking.
The power of ghosts and gods.”
Xiang Shaolong couldn't help but hugged his "sweet shoulders" and sighed: "Knowing that Your Majesty did not betray me, the happiness in my heart cannot be expressed in words, but I can't drag Your Majesty and drive back."
Long Yangjun was shocked and said: "Young dragon, please don't try to be brave. According to what the Nu family knows, Han Chuang and others had secretly met with Cao Qiudao and urged him to get rid of you, otherwise Qi will never have peace. So don't think that Cao Qiudao is willing.
Show mercy with the sword."
Xiang Shaolong smiled and said: "I heard that Cao Qiudao couldn't even control King Qi. Who does Han Chuang think he is?"
Long Yangjun was stunned for a while and then said movedly: "The slave family knows that Shaolong is thinking about me, but the slave family has its own means to deal with Han Chuang. In the final analysis, he still has to rely on the slave family for many things and does not dare to do anything wrong."
He sighed again and said: "The Nu family is not speaking for him. In fact, he is also in a difficult situation. He has true feelings for Shaolong."
Xiang Shaolong had no intention of running away at this moment, and said decisively: "If you want to leave, you can wait until after the battle with Cao Qiudao. In fact, I have fought with him before, and this sword of hundreds of battles was snatched back from that fight.
.Otherwise, I don’t know that guy Han Chuang wants to kill me."
Long Yangjun lost his voice and said, "Have you ever fought against him?"
Xiang Shaolong said softly: "Your Majesty, please order someone to drive the car back first, and then I will tell you the details."
When Xiang Shaolong woke up, the sky was slightly bright.
It was cold, the ground was freezing, and he went to bed very late last night, so he was reluctant to get out of the warm bed.
Last night he was determined not to go to Feng Fei's place because he didn't want things to get out of control due to the relationship between a man and a woman. His wishful thinking was that after surviving Lao Cao's ten tricks, Xie Ziyuan would arrange for him to escape while Feng Fei would
But Zhong Sunlong and his son are responsible for her safe departure. With their own prestige, this is not Lu Buwei's territory, so the girls should not be in danger.
After returning to Xianyang, he would never lead troops on another expedition. His only wish now is that Xiaopan's identity crisis is just his own fault, but he also vaguely knows that this is just his optimistic wishful thinking.
With Lu Buwei's shrewdness and the fact that there were quite a few loopholes in this matter, nothing could be left to chance.
Suddenly, a loud noise came from the direction of the front yard, and then someone screamed in pain. When Xiang Shaolong sat up in shock, Shanrou rushed in like a whirlwind, grabbed him by the chest and yelled: "You lazy boy, get out of bed!"
Come on, you know that you will face the master the day after tomorrow, but you still can't get up."
Fei Chun, whose face was bruised and swollen by Shanrou, Lei Yun'er and others crowded into the room in a state of embarrassment. Seeing Xiang Shaolong, the dignified Qin General, helplessly grabbing the bra of this evil girl, they were all shocked.
He stopped in shock and was at a loss.
Xiang Shaoneng smiled bitterly and introduced: "This is Mrs. Xie who even Cao Qiudao has a headache. You should know how to treat her next time you meet her."
In Xiang Shaolong's Zhuoli courtyard, his mind and spirit were united, and the sword of hundreds of battles was struck from different angles. Each sword completely neutralized the kind, soft, fierce, and flexible attack, making it difficult for her to organize a continuous offensive, just like cutting off water with a sword.
, every time it is impossible to interrupt the flow of water.
After the experience of fighting in the battlefield in recent years, his sword skills have matured and there are no more marks from the axe.
After Shanrou fought back with no avail for ten more times, she finally ran out of strength and stepped back, standing with her sword horizontally, staring at him with wide, almond-shaped eyes.
In addition to the generals, Feng Fei, and the maidservants, there were also Zhongsun Xuanhua and more than a dozen of his attendants watching the battle.
Everyone suppressed the urge to applaud and cheer because they were afraid of angering such a super evil girl like Shan Rou.
The kind and soft jade face suddenly thawed, and he smiled and said: "You kid has really made great progress. It seems that you can withstand a few strokes from the master."
Xiang Shaolong was afraid that she would leak out the promise of ten moves, so he hurriedly raised his sword and saluted, "Thank you, Mrs. Xie, for your advice."
Only then did everyone dare to cheer and cheer.
Zhongsun Xuanhua drew his sword, came to Xiang Shaolong and said with a smile: "Xuanhua's hands have been itchy for a long time. Please give me some advice, General."
Xiang Shaolong faced the most outstanding swordsman in Qi State, below Cao Qiudao, who was as famous as Dan Chu. He did not dare to raise his hand and guarded the center with his sword horizontally. He smiled and said: "Brother Xuanhua, please"
The onlookers were so intimidated by Zhongsun Xuanhua's reputation that they did not even dare to let out a breath.
Zhongsun Xuanhua's expression was as calm as water, and he took two steps forward with his sword straightened out. Xiang Shaolong immediately felt a fierce momentum coming from his opponent. If he dared to neglect, he raised his eyebrows and drew back his sword.
Zhongsun Xuanhua's eyes shone brightly, focusing on Xiang Shaolong. He shouted loudly, raised his voice, and stabbed with his sword.
Xiang Shaolong was filled with emotion in his heart.
Zhongsun Xuanhua's swordsmanship is not inferior to that of Guan Zhongxie, but it is far inferior to Cao Qiudao. It can be seen that Cao Qiudao's talent in swordsmanship is really a gift from God, and even his most outstanding disciples can only get it.
The form has lost its spirit.
With a "clang" sound, Xiang Shaolong raised his sword and held it.
Zhongsun Xuanhua was forced by the powerful force of the Hundred Battles Sword and was unable to use any subsequent changes, so he retreated away.
Xiang Shaolong allowed the opponent to reorganize his offensive, and swung his sword of hundreds of battles. The shadows of the swords were like rolling waves, and he attacked Zhongsun Xuanhua.
Zhongsun Xuanhua was at a disadvantage because he couldn't figure out the way to the Hundred Battles Sword. For a while, he could only parry and retreat steadily.
Xiang Shaolong was fighting vigorously, and suddenly he opened and closed his arms, attacking long and far; at the next moment, he started to use close-quarters fighting techniques, with dangerous swords. Everyone in the audience held their breath and seemed to have forgotten to even breathe.
I saw that the two people's swords were crossing each other without any space, and some of the girls were so nervous that they screamed and trembled. They thought they were pretending to be real and wanted to take the opportunity to kill each other.
Only a person who is smart and gentle can see that Xiang Shaolong controlled the initiative and was cautious in everything. He seemed to have no mercy and just wanted to indirectly test Cao Qiudao's attainments through Zhongsun Xuanhua's sword skills.
At this time, the situation changed again. Xiang Shaolong's every strike seemed to be extremely slow, but Zhongsun Xuanhua was having an even harder time dealing with it.
At this time, Xiang Shaolong had completely regained the confidence that had been scared away by Cao Qiudao. He advanced, retreated, and attacked and defended naturally. Although Zhongsun Xuanhua repeatedly counterattacked, he quickly collapsed and was too powerful to suppress.
In the eyes of everyone, even women like Dong Shuzhen who do not know swordsmanship can still feel that Xiang Shaolong's swordsmanship is ever-changing and can be hard or soft, and he has the aura of dominating the world and looking down upon the world.
"Dang Dang Dang"
Xiang Shaolong stepped forward and struck three times in a row, each time hitting the same gap in Zhongsun Xuanhua's sword accurately. No matter how Zhongsun Xuanhua's sword changed, the result was still the same. His skill was so miraculous that it was hard to believe.
The long sword was divided and broken.
Xiang Shaolong returned the sword to its sheath and said with a smile: "Brothers took advantage of the weapon."
Zhongsun Xuanhua was also a hero. He dropped his hand and cut off his sword, laughing and saying: "The general is indeed well-deserved. I can rest assured, little brother."
The applause came from afar.
Feng Fei and Xiao Yuetan came together. The former said happily: "Feng Fei has prepared breakfast to entertain all the guests. Can you please move to the front hall?"
After the meal, everyone dispersed their things.
Shanrou hurried home to see her son, while Zhongsun Xuanhua, who had a military post, was busy with his official duties. Fengfei and the other girls were rehearsing for the birthday banquet two days later, leaving Xiao Yuetan and Xiang Shaolong in the hall.
Secret words.
Xiao Yuetan whispered: "Cao Qiudao is worthy of a great master. He agreed to the promise of ten moves in one fell swoop. But judging from his appearance, he seems confident that he can knock you down in ten moves."
Xiang Shaolong felt relieved and said: "That's ideal. Even if you kill me, you won't believe that you can't withstand just ten swords."
A strange look flashed in Xiao Yuetan's eyes, and he hesitated a little: "You must be on guard against others. Shaolong had better not put away his sword immediately after reaching ten moves. Maybe Old Ghost Cao will take the opportunity to make two more strikes."
Xiang Shaolong smiled easily and said: "It can't be like this. Old Cao is a great master of swordsmanship. He will naturally keep his word. That night he just let me slip away. Don't worry."
Xiao Yuetan seemed a little anxious and said: "Anyway, you have to promise me to be careful and take precautions. Let's treat it as an agreement."
Xiang Shaolong asked curiously: "Brother, it seems that I am quite sure that Lao Cao will regret the promise?"
Xiao Yuetan coughed dryly, looked at him and said calmly: "You have always trusted me, so trust me more this time."
Although Xiang Shaolong muttered in his heart, he had no real doubts. He changed the subject, told him about the situation of Li Yuan and Long Yangjun, and took the opportunity to ask: "You also said that the river is still blocked by ice and snow, is the information wrong?
"
Xiao Yuetan said a little awkwardly and unnaturally: "I just heard what others said, or Long Yangjun's information is more correct."
Then he changed the subject and said: "The news that you defeated Ma Chengjia with a single blow last night has spread throughout the city. Many people in the city who originally bet on you to lose have changed their bets on you to win, causing the odds to drop from 1 to 13 to 1
Pay five, it shows that your market has risen sharply."
Xiang Shaolong thought of the gambling situation before the battle with Guan Zhongxie, and he didn't expect it to happen again in Linzi. He laughed and said: "Paying five is pretty good. But my victory last night relied on some chance and luck. It's really strange.
When I touched the Hundred Battle Sword, my confidence came back immediately."
Xiao Yuetan said happily: "The swords you just chopped off Zhongsun Xuanhua's long sword were really wonderful and amazing. No wonder the gambling people in Linzi honor you as "Sword Master". You and the Sword Master complement each other, and everyone can overwhelm you." No one."
Xiang Shaolong smiled bitterly and said: "I know my own affairs. I, the Sword Master, is really no match for the Sword Master. If it hadn't been for these ten moves, I would have run away in these two nights."
Xiao Yuetan had a strange expression again and said seriously: "Don't have such an idea, otherwise I'm afraid I won't be able to withstand ten swords. Have you made a plan to leave Linzi? In my opinion, Zhongsun Long is more reliable now. "
Xiang Shaolong didn't pay attention to Xiao Yuetan's expression, nodded and said: "Don't worry, I have a deep understanding of this sword master. Although Zhongsun Xuanhua is a few steps behind him, he finally has a score, which has benefited me a lot."
After a pause, he continued: "I told Xie Ziyuan and Zhongsun Xuanhua last night that they will arrange for me to leave here after the competition."
Xiao Yuetan let go of her worries and said: "It's best to ask Zhong Sunlong and his son to keep an eye on the movements of Guo Kai and others. Otherwise, if you lose your focus, you will be plotted."
Xiang Shaolong secretly praised him for his sagacity and nodded in agreement.
At this time, the servants came to report, and Boss Jin came to see him. Xiao Yuetan took the opportunity to say goodbye.
Xiang Shaolong went out to greet him in person. As soon as they saw him, Mr. Jin laughed and said, "I thought a hero suddenly came out of that place, but it turned out to be Xiang Shaolong, who is famous in the northwest. The general deceived me so hard."
Xiang Shaolong said apologetically: "It was unavoidable, boss, please forgive me."
Boss Jin took his arm and walked into the hall and whispered: "The general chopped Ma Chengjia into disrepute last night and everyone in Qi lost face. There must be someone who is not afraid of death in the next two days to provoke him. General, please be careful."
Then he added: "The warriors outside don't seem to be Qi people's soldiers. Who sent them?"
Only then did Xiang Shaolong remember that Zhongsun Xuanhua was going to send someone to be his attendant, and responded: "They are warriors from the Zhongsun family. I didn't know they were here."
After the two sat down, Mr. Jin said earnestly: "Zhong Sunlong and his son are not good people. Once the general loses the value of being used by them, they will turn their guns against the general at any time."
Xiang Shaolong smiled bitterly and said: "Lu Buwei can learn from his mistakes, and I have had a painful and unforgettable experience of this. The icing on the cake is something that everyone enjoys doing, and it is rare to see someone like a boss helping a younger brother in times of need."
Boss Jin's face turned red and he said: "General, please don't praise me. I just follow my temper. I can't change it even if I suffer big losses. But when Su Fang heard about your true identity, she felt very uncomfortable. I’m here to beg you to talk to her. She has a deep impression of you since her last trip to Xianyang.”
Xiang Shaolong was wondering in his heart, how could Shi Sufang be eager to see him since she always treated men so politely.
The meeting he had with her back then was arranged through Pu Hu. Now that Pu Hu has been executed for rebellion, it makes no sense for her to still show her favor to him.
As Xiao Yuetan said, it is necessary to be on guard against others, so it would be better not to see her.
Boss Jin added: "I know that before the decisive battle between the general and Cao Gong, the general must recharge his batteries and not have a banquet. If not, why don't we make a date at dusk the next day after the general's flag is drawn and the victory is won? What do you think of the general?"
Xiang Shaolong secretly thought that he had already escaped by then, so even if he agreed, there would be no problem. As long as he sent a verbal message, Shi Sufang would not blame him. He smiled and agreed.
The two chatted for a few more words, and then Boss Jin excused himself.
When Xiang Shaolong sent him out, unexpectedly, the second prince Tian Jian came down accompanied by Xie Ziyuan.
