"How do brothers Dian and Wei want to compete, fists and kicks or swords?"
Xu Chu clenched his huge fists and asked with a smile.
"Fistes, feet, swords have no eyes, and it is easy to hurt harmony. How about we compete to test our strength?"
Dian Wei smiled.
Xu Chu was stunned when he heard this, then burst out laughing.
"To be honest, Brother Dianwei, I am famous in villages all over the world. Back then, I once dragged two cows by their tails and walked them backwards for hundreds of steps!"
"Are you sure you want to compete with me?"
"Sure!"
Dian Wei nodded affirmatively.
"Okay, tell me how to compare."
"Only those two stone lions, whoever can move them wins!"
Everyone subconsciously turned their attention to the two stone lions at the entrance to the martial arts training ground.
These two stone lions are both made of bluestone and are extremely heavy, weighing not more than 1,000 pounds but also 800 kilograms!
It took more than a dozen big men to move it at first.
Xu Chu hesitated.
He once tried, but the stone lion was too heavy and he couldn't pick it up.
"What, Xu Zhuangshi, are you afraid?"
Dian Wei deliberately provoked the general.
"How am I the one who shrinks back!"
Xu Zhu snorted coldly and thought to himself that he could not move these two stone lions. No matter how strong Dian Wei was, he would not be able to move them.
The worst case scenario is a draw!
Thinking of this, Xu Chu strode toward the stone lion.
He took a deep breath, straightened up his horse, breathed out of his dantian, and hugged the stone lion with both hands.
"rise!"
It's a pity that even though Xu Chu's face turned red and he tried his best, he couldn't move the stone lion.
"That's it? That's it? I thought Xu Zhuangshi was so powerful, but it's nothing more than that!"
When Dian Wei saw this, he couldn't help laughing.
"You can do it! I want to see how strong you are!"
Xu Chu said angrily.
"Okay, I'll do it, I'll do it!"
Dian Wei laughed, walked forward slowly, and circled around the stone lion.
Gao Shun on the side couldn't help but asked in a low voice,
"Can General Dian Wei really move this stone lion?"
"can."
Zhao Yun sighed.
Although Zhao Yun was not present when Yang Ling and Dian Wei were begging for help, he later heard Dian Wei mention it and knew how Yang Ling deceived Dian Wei.
Gao Shun was a little confused, wondering why Zhao Yun was so confident.
While they were talking, Dian Wei suddenly turned around and walked towards the martial arts training ground.
This move really confused Xu Chu, Gao Shun and other onlookers who didn't know the truth.
Dian Wei rummaged through the pile of weapons, found a stick made of fine iron, weighed it in his hands, and showed a satisfied smile.
He turned back, inserted the iron rod under the stone lion, and used a stone as a fulcrum.
Then Dian Wei grasped the iron rod with both hands and pried it hard.
In the dull eyes of Xu Chu and Gao Shun, the stone lion that stood still... was moved a few inches!
"How about it, did I win?"
Dian Wei let go of the iron rod, turned around and laughed.
"You...you are cheating!"
Xu Chu, who had a dull face, came to his senses and said angrily,
"We are talking about a contest of strength. What kind of contest of strength is this?"
"Xu Zhuangshi is still ignorant."
Dian Wei shook his head and sighed,
"My elder brother said that knowledge is power!"
Xu Chu was speechless and choked, and rolled his eyes at Yang Ling.
"Sure enough, it is close to Zhu Zhechi. The second brother has been with the eldest brother for a long time, and he has become cunning."
Zhao Yun shook his head and sighed,
"Zilong, we are your brothers. Do you arrange your brothers like this?"
Yang Ling glared at Zhao Yun and feigned anger.
Seeing the unhappy look on Xu Chu's face, Yang Ling was heartbroken and decided to use his ultimate killer weapon.
"Zi Long!"
"Brother, please give me orders!"
Zhao Yun handed over.
"Go get my barbecue seasoning!"
…
Half an hour later, Xu Chu hugged the barbecue and wolfed it down.
Dian Wei on the side smiled and persuaded,
"Xu Zhuangshi, my eldest brother is a talented person, and he speaks well. Not only does he make good wine, but he also cooks good food. He is also a famous person around Mr. Cao."
"As long as you follow him, you'll have no problem eating hot and spicy food!"
Yang Ling nodded slightly, with a very pleased expression.
It seems that my love for you is not in vain, second brother.
Xu Chu struggled to swallow the food in his mouth and hesitated for a while. Finally, he was moved by Dian Wei's sweet words and nodded.
"Oh well!"
"Fourth brother!"
Yang Ling stepped forward affectionately and held Xu Chu's hand.
"We are brothers, let's go have fun together...oh no, let's assist Duke Cao and build a career together!"
"Eldest brother, second brother, third brother."
Xu Chu called each of the three of them.
Yang Ling nodded with satisfaction.
The four major bodyguards during the Three Kingdoms period were Dian Wei and Xu Chu under Cao Cao, Zhao Yun who protected Liu Bei, and Zhou Tai under Sun Quan.
Now that he and the three of them have become sworn brothers, there is absolutely nothing to worry about when it comes to personal safety!
Thinking like this, he looked at Xu Chu with more loving eyes.
"Zhongkang, eat slowly, enough is enough!"
Xu Chu was extremely brave, but simple-minded and reckless.
Otherwise, in history, Xu You would not have been provoked and chopped Xu You with a knife.
The reason why he joined Yang Ling's gang was also very simple.
Firstly, I came here to eat and drink together.
Secondly, Dian Wei was Cao Cao's personal commander, and he defeated Lu Bu together with Zhao Yun.
Although I have never heard of the name of my eldest brother Yang Ling, as Dian Wei described, Yang Ling is not an ordinary person.
At least the future is bright if you follow them.
…
Although He Yi and others died, Liu Pi escaped, along with a large number of Yellow Turban troops.
Therefore, Yang Ling was not in a hurry to leave, but stayed in Xujiacun for the time being.
In the next few days, as they spent more and more time together, the relationship between Xu Chu and the three brothers became deeper.
He first competed with Dian Wei and Zhao Yun, but failed by a narrow margin.
This made the original dissatisfaction in his heart completely disappear!
Later, after learning from the two of them that Yang Ling had "defended the city with dung juice" and a series of deeds, Xu Chu also expressed absolute respect for his eldest brother Yang Ling.
In the words of his private communication with Dian Wei and Zhao Yun, what he fears most is the kind of counselor who has eight hundred tricks!
…
On this day, Yang Ling was on the martial arts training ground with his three brothers.
"Hey!"
Yang Ling stabbed the gun hard, with such force that even the target made of straw fell into pieces!
He put on his arms and said to the three brothers with a coquettish expression,
"Brother, how are my shooting skills?"
"Well... Brother has made great progress!"
Zhao Yun smiled.
Yang Ling couldn't help but feel slightly proud and looked at Xu Chu aside.
He heard a sharp shout from him and suddenly swung out the big knife in his hand!
"Crack!"
"Crack!"
"Crack!"
The dozen or so wooden stakes as thick as a bowl placed in the martial arts training ground were all chopped off by Xu Chu with one blow!
The smile on Yang Ling's face suddenly froze.
He originally thought that after practicing martial arts diligently during this period, he would be considered to be quite powerful.
But compared with Xu Chu...well, people can't compare with monsters.
The entire Three Kingdoms can be counted on one hand for such tough men as Xu Chu.
