Yu Yi dared to be so arrogant and confident. He took out his bronze halberd, and then picked up the halberds placed there one by one.
He held the halberd in the weapon shop in his left hand and the bronze halberd in his right hand. Using his inner strength, he used the point of the bronze halberd to scratch the body of the hand halberd, and then he put the hand halberd back to its original place.
"Haha, you see, he is a liar. The halberd is safe and sound. He lost the bet. Let's take his head!"
A clerk in the weapons shop saw Yu Yi putting the complete hand halberd in its place. He thought it was because Yu Yi had no skills, so he came up to fulfill the bet.
"You really want to kill me? I'm afraid it won't be that easy. Don't worry, just take a look at the halberd."
Yuyi smiled and put forward his own suggestion.
The guy thought that he could save some face by fulfilling the bet directly, but now he must expose it to his face. This is what Yuyi asked for.
The man walked over quickly, but his hand began to tremble after touching the halberd. Then in full view of everyone, he picked up the halberd. Yes, it was a hand halberd broken into two sections.
Now it was the waiter's turn to be speechless. He didn't expect that he would be slapped in the face, but the store owner came to his rescue and said, "Don't be proud, I have several more behind me."
Yuyi nodded and continued to walk towards the other halberds. This time he no longer held them with his left hand, but leaned them against a corner, then jumped up suddenly, using all his body's gravity and internal energy to attack. With all his strength, he struck the halberd fiercely, cutting the halberd in pieces on the spot.
Some onlookers could not help but praise, and some even applauded.
I thought I could end it all smoothly, but when it came to the last yellow iron halberd, Yu Yi followed the previous method, but it didn't work. Yu Yi thought he had cut at the wrong position, so he repeated the previous action, but there was still no reaction. .
At this time, the shop owner had already seen some clues. He looked at the beads of sweat on Yuyi's forehead and said with a smile: "Young people, it's better not to be too arrogant. I can take a step back from this bet. I won't take it from you." Human head, you can only kneel on the ground and kowtow to me three times, call me grandpa again, and then give up."
Yu Yi knew that the method of cutting off with the bronze halberd had failed, but he was still a little unwilling to accept it. He slowly walked up to the shop owner and looked directly at him.
Seeing this, the clerk laughed and said: "Aren't you very powerful? Kowtow to our boss and admit your mistake quickly. Maybe he will relent and let you go."
Yu Yi raised the corner of his mouth slightly, moved forward with one hand, pushed the guy in front of him away, and said: "That's not necessarily the case!"
Then Yu Yi concentrated his inner energy into his right hand, then pulled out a small knife from his body and shot it in the direction of the yellow iron halberd. Of course, it didn't stop. After this action, he jumped into the air again, and again A flying knife was shot out and landed on the ground, followed by another flying knife.
The three flying knives flew out one after another, hitting the spot where Yu Yi had struck with the bronze halberd, and finally broke the yellow iron halberd.
After the yellow iron halberd was broken, Yu Yi was naturally the winner. When the surrounding residents saw this scene, they were naturally filled with admiration.
The store owner also changed his previous attitude. He knew that the young man standing in front of him should not be underestimated. If he really wanted to stop him, he would probably destroy them all.
However, Yu Yi was still not satisfied with his performance. He walked to the broken yellow iron halberd, squatted down and observed it, then put the knife away and turned around to leave.
At this time, the residents in front of the weapons shop all gave way, and there was no more contempt in their eyes.
The shop owner really wanted to catch up with him and find out the material of the bronze halberd and knife in the young man's hands, but he was afraid of further humiliation, so he left with Yu Yi.
When he returned to the inn, he had dinner. During this period, he found that many people were looking at him, and some people even pointed at him. Yuyi knew that this was the effect of the news about the weapons store.
The people sitting at the table next to Yu Yi were talking about other things. Through their chat content, Yu Yi learned that these two people were businessmen who came to Huguan specifically to purchase weapons. Now, whether it is the Imperial Army or the Golden Army, , the procurement of weapons is crucial, and businessmen will certainly make a fortune.
Their subsequent conversation allowed Yu Yi to further understand the situation of the bandits. It turned out that the bandits in the Taihang Mountains were divided into zones. The bandits in Jiguan were only a small part and belonged to the South District. The bandits in Huguan belonged to the West District. Except for In addition, there are the North District and the East District. The force in the East District is the most powerful, with the total number of bandits exceeding 5,000.
Before the Yellow Turbans uprising, Shangdang County sent imperial troops to the mountains to annihilate them several times, but their vitality was not harmed. Later, Zhang Jiao led the Yellow Turbans to revolt and invaded Youzhou in the first battle. Shangdang County was quite far away from Youzhou, and the imperial court All his troops were sent to the front line, and the extermination of bandits in the Taihang Mountains was put on hold.
These bandits are also very smart. They use the name of the Yellow Turban Army to commit robbery and murder.
Speaking of bandits, Yu Yi thought of the tragic death of the innocent old man, and was filled with anger for a moment. He secretly swore in his heart that if he didn't kill all these harmful bandits, he would not be a human being.
However, after all, the bandits are quite large in number and are distributed throughout the Taihang Mountains. It is obviously impossible to rely on one's own strength, so he thought of his base camp, which is Daoxiang Village, where there is a well-trained Tang Lin Army, the so-called Raise an army for a thousand days and use it for a while.
In order to further determine the location of the mountain road so that he could quickly cross the Taihang Mountains and reach Maocheng, Yu Yi took the initiative to go up and talk to the merchants.
During the conversation, we learned that there are two roads to Maocheng. One is from Huguan to the east and goes down the river to reach the Wei army. To the north is Handan, and the other is a mountain road that needs to be followed along Huguan. Guan continues to move forward, and at the next fork in the road, you will find Maocheng across the mountain road.
However, the businessman deliberately reminded that although the waterway is much slower, the safety is high enough. Although the mountain roads also exist, few people will go there because the roads are rugged, very narrow in some places, and there are some ferocious beasts, so it is easy to lose them. life.
Yuyi thanked him and left, lying on bed mountain. He flipped through the "Lü Shi Chun Qiu" he obtained from the tomb, and found that the knowledge system in it was very comprehensive. It was not an exaggeration to call it a miscellaneous family, especially the last few The method of practicing Qi gave Yu Yi a new understanding.
Should we choose the waterway or the mountain path?
The businessman had clearly analyzed the pros and cons. Most of the time for Zhang Jiao's invasion of Youzhou had passed, and time could not be wasted, so Yu Yi decided to take the mountain road because it could save a lot of time.
On the second day, Yu Yi packed up his things and continued to travel to the north of Huguan. This time he walked in a zigzag shape, needing to go around a large mountain. The road was full of weeds, big trees, and swamps. He accidentally made several mistakes. Standing in the swamp, luckily I reacted quickly and pulled my foot out in time.
The difficulties on the road are more complicated than Yuyi imagined.
