Hearing that the other party asked him to guess his identity, Lai Heng looked at him seriously.
After a moment, he shook his head and said: "I have lived on the water in Dongting for a long time. I am in a remote location and have no information. However, I can't think of anyone in this world except the champion Hou Xiaorui, who is known as the best in the world, who can have such grace as the young master."
"Even the second young master from Lingnan, Feng Zhidai, whom I met by chance last year, who is known as the fifth in the world, is far behind."
Fang Yiai said in surprise: "Brother Xiao, he is so smart, he guessed your identity right away."
puff……
Xiao Rui laughed dumbly, "I didn't hide my traces along the way, and you have been exposed a long time ago."
ah? I?
Fang Er scratched his head.
Li Junxian reminded: "You keep calling me Brother Xiao. How many people in the world with the surname Xiao are as elegant as the Young Master?"
Fang Er laughed awkwardly and whispered, "I'm used to it, I keep calling you that."
Xiao Rui interrupted the chat between the two and said to Na Laiheng: "Brother Lai just said that he met the second young master of the Feng family by chance years ago? Could it be that you gave it to them when they crossed the river?"
Lai Heng said in surprise: "It's really in front of Mr. Hou, disrespectful!"
"Yes, it was an accidental opportunity. I met Princess Changle riding a tiger by the river, and then I gave them a ride."
"Hahahaha, no wonder, no wonder there are claw marks left by the big cat on this big ship. It turns out they are all friends." Xiao Rui laughed.
Claw marks?
Li Junxian is considered to have been on the battlefield for a long time, so why didn't he notice it?
Lai Heng nodded and said with a smile: "Master Hou has a keen eye. The tiger is the king of the mountains and forests. He is not used to riding on boats, so he panicked a little. In the end, he could only dig the deck tightly with his four sharp claws. But even so, he couldn't get off the boat. I can’t stop vomiting.”
puff……
Does the big cat keep vomiting?
That picture couldn't help but appear in several people's minds. It was so interesting.
Lai Heng cupped his hands and said, "Excuse me, haven't you been in Chang'an City all the time? Why did you travel so far just after the New Year? And you haven't brought any guards with you. Isn't it too dangerous? Although the Marquis is famous, he also makes enemies. Quite a bit, you, a rich man, shouldn’t be so careless.”
Before Xiao Rui could speak, the second roommate said unconvinced: "Hey, the second roommate doesn't agree with what the ship boss said. It's enough that I am responsible for Brother Xiao's safety. Soldiers are more valuable than fines. This is the territory of the Tang Dynasty, not In a foreign country, there are only a few path-cutting thieves, nothing more. Besides, Brother Xiao doesn’t want to waste money on the people and mobilize troops. "
What? Ship boss?
Li Junxian almost laughed out loud. This boy seemed to look down on him. Did he dislike his identity as a Dongting water bandit?
Xiao Rui scolded: "My beloved, don't be rude! Apologize to sir."
"Sir, my younger brother is young, please don't get along with him."
Lai Heng waved his hand and said: "If so, this must be the second son of Fang Xiang's family, right? I've heard of him for a long time. He has a straightforward personality, unparalleled loyalty and bravery, and his reputation is well-deserved."
These words made Fang Er blush, and said sarcastically: "Thank you sir, it was all taught by Brother Xiao."
puff……
Xiao Rui rolled his eyes and said, "Please make it clear, I taught you martial arts and art of war, but I didn't teach you to put your eyes above everything else. You used to be a very honest and honest kid. When did you become so arrogant?"
The second roommate quickly apologized: "How can he be? I'm not worried that he is a robber on the water. I'm just trying to scare him."
Pfft... Okay, so it turns out you are just being naughty?
Everyone laughed.
Xiao Rui reminded: "You kid, open your eyes and take a good look. This person is no ordinary person. After a famous general, the martial arts passed down from his family have been practiced from the outside to the inside. It's not that easy for you to win against him."
"No, no, this is on the water. You are a landlubber. You can fight on horseback, but your skills on a boat...hehe, you can't win on this rolling Yangtze River."
What? ? ?
Fang Er's mouth opened wide, his face full of dissatisfaction.
Lai Heng, who was opposite him, was also shocked. He looked at Xiao Rui again and admired him greatly. He was worthy of being the legendary best person in the world. Even if he lost all his martial arts, his vision was unparalleled.
"Your Majesty, thank you very much. I'm just a sloppy person, so I don't know any martial arts skills."
Li Junxian was also sizing up Lai Heng across from him. From the moment he knew that the other party was a Dongting water bandit, he never let down his guard. Now when he heard Xiao Rui say that the other party was a master, he was shocked. He didn't even notice it?
Xiao Rui stood up and said, "Well, it's a rare chance to meet a friend. I want to visit Dongting Lake. I wonder if my brother is interested?"
Lai Heng said in surprise: "Master Hou, aren't you going south?"
"What? Inconvenient?" Xiao Rui laughed.
Lai Heng laughed loudly and said: "It's convenient, of course it's convenient. It's a great opportunity to have the opportunity to visit Dongting Lake with the Marquis. I can't ask for it."
"In this way, my poor village is in Dongting. I wonder if the Marquis..."
Li Junxian tried to dissuade him: "Sir, is this inappropriate?"
Xiao Rui waved his hand and said: "As you wish, I just want to visit Brother Lai's water village. Being able to cross the Yangtze River and leave the imperial navy helpless must be extremely extraordinary."
"Brother Lai, the three of us are members of the imperial court. Do you dare to let us go? Aren't you afraid that we will see through your defenses?"
Lai Heng was also a cheerful person, and he said generously: "Master Hou, what are you doing to me? In front of you, the God of War of the Tang Dynasty, who dares to mention any defense? If you really like my village, in one sentence, I will Wait until everyone ties up and comes out to surrender."
"Being able to be favored by the Marquis shows that our group of people are not useless trash."
Um?
There is something in these words!
Everyone present, except Fang Er, Xiao Rui and Li Junxian understood it. It seems that today's encounter is not just a chance encounter, nor is it just a simple acquaintance.
"Okay, then Xiao Rui and I, two brothers, are going to bother you." Xiao Rui said with his hands in hand.
"Don't dare. Thank you Lord Marquis for the honor." Lai Heng shouted outside: "Hey, turn around and go back to the water village. Notify the brothers in the village to prepare to welcome the distinguished guests."
Li Junxian was vaguely worried. This was on the river, and we were on a warship. There were only three of us. What if this group of people was malicious? After all, it is difficult for two fists to beat four hands, and the Marquis has no martial arts skills, and the opponent does not know the basics. What if he is an enemy?
So he poked Fang Er and winked at him.
Fang Er didn't know if he understood, so he nodded to Li Junxian, then stood up and said, "Hey, Mr. Lai, since Brother Xiao said that you have great martial arts skills and you are not in a hurry to cross the river, why don't you and I give it a try? I want to see if Brother Xiao is right, why can't I beat you on the river?"
"I can ride on a war horse and kill the enemy as if I were walking on flat ground. Isn't it just a war ship? I don't get seasick."
Pfft... Li Junxian wanted to cover his eyes, but he said in his heart that's not what I meant. I wanted you to persuade Mr. Hou, you know how to fight!
