The captain was furious after being beaten, but he covered his face and endured it again and again, and finally did not speak.
In fact, the Cao Gang is not too cowardly of the Wang family, but they may not be willing to get into a real fight just because of such a trivial matter, and the fight will probably be in vain.
The man glanced across the bow of the ship, and the first thing he saw was Xuanchong standing up: "Taoist Master Xuanchong is indeed here."
Xuan Chong was astonished: "With your tone, you are actually here to see Pindao?"
"Yes, we went to Mount Tai a few days ago. The Master said that you have been traveling to the south for a long time, so we had to go south to look for you. I happened to hear someone say that I saw the Taoist Master at the bow of the Caobang boat, so I came here to see you."
Xuan Chong frowned slightly: "Why is it so important that we have to find Pindao?"
The man took out something that looked like an invitation: "On our son's birthday, we are specially inviting famous contemporaries from Qian Long Bang to the banquet. Our group happened to be assigned the task of inviting ten to twenty people, so we must complete it."
"That's all? Blocking people's boats, forcing them to board, and beating them?"
"If a mere boatman dares to go against the wishes of my Wang family, he will be beaten. So what?"
Xuan Chong looked very unhappy. This was because his friend's subordinates were beaten because of his own fault, and he was extremely angry.
However, his Taiyi Sect and the Wang family were in the same state. Although they were not very close, they could not see each other when they raised their heads and looked down. If a fight would bring trouble to the sect, they would not take action and just waved their sleeves and said: "I have no intention of fighting with the king." If the young master has anything to do with you, I will not go to this banquet. Your Excellency, please come back."
The man sneered: "Not everyone who is on the Qianlong List will definitely be able to participate in my young master's banquet. You must know that the so-called Qianlong List only looks at potential rather than strength, but potential may not have time to turn into strength. , what’s the point? Young master’s intention, if it’s a waste of so-called potential, it’s fine not to invite him.”
Even the clay figure was furious at these words, and Xuan Chong finally became furious: "According to your wishes, you want to test my strength first?"
The man said proudly: "Yes, if you can beat me, you are still eligible to attend the banquet even if you are not on the Qianlong List. If you can't beat me, it's not a question of whether the Taoist Master will accept the post or not, it's... no, yes, qualifications!"
Xuan Chong didn't want to take the post at all, but when he was aroused by these words, he couldn't help but choked and drew his sword, and sneered: "The poor man can just tear it up."
Before he finished speaking, the big man who had been sitting on the edge of the chessboard with his hands folded suddenly stood up and kicked the man in the crotch with a sweeping kick.
The man was startled, and turned around, only to see that the swift and violent kick turned into a walking step very naturally. The seemingly majestic and clumsy man nimbly came to his side, and covered his face with a slap like a cattail leaf fan. .
The man flashed again in an emergency.
The palm turned into a phantom, and the fingers bloomed like flowers, touching the acupoints on his chest.
The man's body went numb and he couldn't lift his strength instantly.
The big man leisurely grabbed his collar with his left hand, and slapped his ear with his right hand, knocking out one of his teeth.
The big man laughed: "I thought you were so capable, and you dared to weigh in on the world's heroes, what the hell!"
The next moment, the man felt like he was flying up in the clouds and mist, and was thrown into the river with a "bang".
The big man clapped his hands and spat into the river: "The barbarians are knocking on the gate of Yanmen. Why don't you think that your young master is going to weigh Chi Li? You idiot, let your young master keep his banquet and invite his mother to it." Come on, you idiot!"
The man splashed in the water and said sternly: "Who are you, you dare to provoke my Wang family? Do you dare to leave your name?"
Xuanchong finally laughed out loud: "You are responsible for inviting ten to twenty people, right? Then he didn't offend you. You were going to weigh him in the first place, but just a little earlier."
The riders on the shore looked at the big man's face in astonishment, and suddenly remembered someone.
"Bloody Shura Zhao Changhe..."
A person's name, the shadow of a tree.
In fact, most of the characters on the Qianlong List really don't have many achievements. Many of them were recognized by the Book of Troubled Times for their outstanding achievements in the early years. Afterwards, there were fewer outstanding deeds. Wan Dongliu Tang Bu Qi Du Very typical, except that one is low-key and the other is really stagnant. In a sense, the prince's calculation is correct. Xuanchong hasn't shown up for a long time. It is said that he was once suppressed by Chili and was extremely embarrassed. Maybe he has wasted his fame?
And Zhao Changhe, who has been leaping on his horse and slashing with his sword for more than half a year, is really killing people. Just a few days ago, he was beheading a general in front of the stronghold and retreating. In that kind of environment, let alone beheading a sixth level of the entrance, even if it was just a chop. There are enough watermelons to last a year. If they had known that he was here, these people might not have dared to "weigh it". His heavy record did not need to be weighed.
But this guy doesn't have the iconic broadsword on his body, and his moves are still elegant. Who would recognize him?
The man who was slapped and thrown into the river did not say a word. He was rescued by his companions. When he reached the shore, he said honestly: "If we had known that Master Zhao was here, we would not have dared to weigh it... Our Master confessed , please be sure to attend the banquet, young master, no invitation is needed."
"Fuck." Xuan Chong was so angry that he laughed, shook his head and sat back at the chessboard, too lazy to say anything.
Zhao Changhe also laughed angrily: "I still like the way you acted unruly just now. Anyway, in my opinion, your young master is acting like a retard. I'm afraid of contagion, so I won't go."
The man touched his cheek, feeling that the mission was about to fail. His mind was thinking about countermeasures, and suddenly an idea flashed: "Young Master will have many old friends present by then. Do you really want to go and meet them?"
Zhao Changhe said: "Yue Hongling is no longer on the Qianlong List. Besides, I don't think she is in the mood to participate in this kind of crappy thing. Xia Chichi, I doubt you can find her, and if you find her, you won't be too lazy to go. Who else is her old friend?" Cui Yuanyong or Han Wubing?"
The man apologized and said with a smile: "On the contrary, Mr. Cui will not come, because he has made a marriage contract with our young lady, and we cannot meet each other before the marriage according to the rules. But Miss Cui Yuanyang will come."
"..." Zhao Changhe didn't expect Cui Yuanyang to be allowed to go out so soon. He didn't think about her for a moment, but was choked by what he said. After a while, he waved his hand: "We'll see what the situation is."
Her expression was so far away that she couldn't help but reveal a trace of her aunt's smile.
It's been a long time since I've seen her. I really want to see this little girl. I wonder if she's still that cute now.
The audience also said in their minds: We also liked your unruly look just now...
The farce ended like this. The other knights got on the horse with the one whose teeth were knocked out, and the group left in despair.
The captain stepped forward and thanked him: "Thank you both for taking a breath for me."
Xuan Chong waved his hand and said: "Ashamed, I couldn't fall out with them, and I drew the sword in the end because I was so angry. It's far less heroic than Brother Zhao, and I didn't save any face for the Wang family."
"I'm too lazy to wait for them to come to me for 258,000 yuan and say they want to weigh me up. What the hell?" Zhao Changhe said: "Since Brother Dao knows the Wang family, do you know why he invited me to the banquet? It's just an invitation. Guest? Isn’t this too retarded?”
Xuan Chong smiled "ha": "It's more likely that he will be invited to practice as a sparring partner for him. After all, it is not convenient to go out alone to practice. This is to invite Qianlong from all over the world to be a sparring partner. Similar things happened in the past, and the wrong hand was returned. He has killed people before. In a sense, this invitation can be said to be an invitation from the King of Hell..."
Zhao Changhe was stunned: "This operation is too outrageous. Are you trying to offend the world?"
"Generally speaking, it's an honor to receive an invitation from the Wang family. It's just a sword test and you won't be killed by mistake. If you can form a good relationship, it will be good for the future." Xuan Chong sighed. : "Not everyone is like you. You have a connection with the Cui family when you are just starting out. Seeing that these top wealthy families no longer have a sense of admiration, most people are afraid of fawning."
"That's too arrogant. It seems like the Cui family is better educated."
Xuan Chong secretly thought that's not necessarily the case, Cui Yuanyong and Cui Yuanyang might be okay, but what about others?
Individuals can never represent the entire class. In the eyes of others, there is no difference between the Cui family and the Wang family, and the Wang family's performance will not be taken seriously in the eyes of the Cui family. Isn't this still a marriage?
In addition...the queen's family is the Wang family, which is the biological mother of the dead ghost prince.
There are at least hundreds of theories as to what happened behind the prince's death, and no one can figure it out. Tang Wanzhuang never mentioned this matter to Zhao Changhe, maybe even she might not be able to figure it out.
Seeing Zhao Changhe thinking, Xuan Chong said: "Of course it's hard to say whether it's for this purpose this time. I'm just guessing. Maybe it's not the case. Does Brother Zhao really want to go?"
Zhao Changhe came back to his senses and grinned: "It would be best if this happened, I want to see if they can defeat the King of Hell!"
