In the early morning, Li Yu and Li Longzhan were called out by Zhao Shu. Li Longzhan got up obediently and put on his clothes. After Li Longzhan got dressed, Li Yu still stayed in bed and refused to wake up, "Oh! It's so early... What are you doing up!"
Zhao Shu urged: "Okay. I haven't practiced martial arts for several days. I haven't practiced martial arts for three days, so get up quickly. You see, your brother Long Zhan has already packed up. It's just you."
Li Yu slowly got up and looked at the window with sleepy eyes. He saw the darkness outside through the window paper and yawned: "Ah~ it's not even bright yet?"
Long Zhan said: "Second brother, it is already Mao hour, also called dawn hour. It's time to get up and practice."
Li Yu excused himself, "I'm injured and need more rest."
Zhao Shu saw that Li Yu was still waiting to get up, "Do you still remember the person you fought against at that time, your uncle Liu Zhan's cousin Zhitian? He suffered a loss last time, and now he wants to defeat you in order to defeat you next time. Are you practicing hard every day?"
When Li Yu heard this, he immediately got up. The boy's desire to win was suddenly aroused, and he thought to himself: "No! It was indeed a fluke that I won last time. I don't know what will happen next time, so I have to practice." So, get up and get dressed quickly.
Li Yu and Li Longzhan were ready to go. When they walked out of the room, they saw that the servants were already busy working, including Jian Xin and Mu Lan. Zhao Shu led Li Yu and Li Longzhan to the door of the inn, and the east was filled with white fish belly. It's April now, and the morning air is still a little cold.
Zhao Shu said: "Now, we are in the west of the city. We will definitely not be able to use it in the city, so we have to go out of the city. It just so happens that you two brothers are competing with each other to see who can reach the outside of the city first. Please move your body."
Li Yu and Li Longzhan moved around for a while, and then they got into position. Zhao Shu gave the order, "Start!" The two brothers ran towards the west gate of the city like two wild horses running wild. Now, except for some people selling breakfast, there are no people in the city, so the two brothers can run on the roads in the city without any scruples. Zhao Shu, on the other hand, followed the two of them unhurriedly and with a relaxed look on his face.
After all, Li Longzhan is two years older than Li Yu, so he can run faster than Li Yu. Li Yu watched his brother's figure getting further and further away, chasing after him desperately. His left chest gradually began to hurt, and he began to breathe heavily. However, Li Yu still did not slow down. He covered his chest with one hand, gritted his teeth, and continued to move forward. Seeing that he was about to reach the west gate of the city, Li Yu saw the finish line close at hand and used his best strength to speed up. Finally, at the last moment, he caught up with his brother Li Longzhan. The two brothers arrived at the gate of the city almost at the same time.
When he arrived at the city gate, Li Yu collapsed on the ground, gasping for air. Zhao Shu came over and praised Li Yu: "Not bad, not bad. Control your breathing and use the exercises I teach you to relieve the pain on your body." After hearing this, Li Yu sat cross-legged on the floor and began to perform exercises for himself Recuperation.
After half a cup of tea, Zhao Shu said: "Let's go."
Li Yu was a little reluctant, "Master Zhao, how long has it been now? Let's go."
Zhao Shu said calmly: "Yes, let's leave now. You have to know that this time I told Long Zhan in advance not to let him speed up at the end. Otherwise, if your brother also speeds up on the last stretch of the road. You will never catch up with him."
"But. But. My brother is older than me, and I am also injured."
"That's why I didn't ask your brother to speed up. Okay, let's go." At this time, Zhao Shu had no intention of being kind to Li Yu. Being kind to him now may cause catastrophe in the future. Zhao Shu knows very well that when facing existing difficulties, he must try his best to face them instead of making excuses for himself, otherwise he will die without a burial place.
Li Yu stood up, shook his body, took a deep breath, and slowly exhaled, "Okay! Let's go."
At this time, the sun has shone on everything, and the morning dew is shining with crystal colors. The three of them ran on the road and came to a relatively wide forest. The green leaves of the forest blocked part of the sunlight. Zhao Shu said: "Take a rest. Think about the basic skills and moves I told you before. We will practice them later."
The two brothers replied in unison: "Okay." After the break, the two brothers began to practice.
As time passed, two hours had passed since they left the inn. Under the leadership of Zhao Shu, the two brothers were exhausted.
Zhao Shu looked at the exhausted two and said, "Okay. That's it for today's practice. Let's take a rest and we're ready to go back."
After hearing this, Li Yu felt as if he was relieved. He spread his hands and feet and lay in a large shape on the grass, feeling the coolness of the grass and the warmth of the sun shining on his body. Suddenly Li Yu seemed to remember something, sat up and asked Zhao Shu: "Master Zhao, why can't I use the flower dance steps as freely as you?"
Zhao Shu replied: "The flower dance step is originally a relatively complicated step. This step was created by the Zhenjiang League, which is now the Jiangjiang League, and the sister of the leader Hua Tieshan, Hua Xiaofu Nvxia, based on the Hua family's exercises. The Beidou Step evolved. Both use the shape of the Beidou as points to move. The difference is that the Beidou Step uses oneself as the right of heaven to perform an instant seven-star movement. The Flower Dance uses the opponent's position. Although there seems to be little difference between the movements performed by Tianquan, there is a big difference between the actual practice and actual use. However, they all have a common characteristic, which is flexible and changeable. Make optimal position judgments based on your opponent's actions. However, you are still too young and your use of position and movement skills have yet to grow. As long as you practice diligently, you will slowly get the hang of it. Dragon War, do you want to Also learn and see.”
Li Longzhan replied: "Okay. I also ask Master Zhao to teach me. However, what I want to learn more is my father's body technique."
Zhao Shu smiled and said, "Your Yinlong Villa's body skills and even martial arts all highlight one feature, that is, they are vigorous and resolute. Your father's body skills are like a tiger's vicious attack. It is really like walking with wind. Practice. That kind of physical skills, internal strength and physique must be in place, otherwise you won't be able to get that feeling. Okay, it's almost time to rest, let's go back."
The three of them got up and walked towards the city. When the three of them returned to the inn, they saw everyone including Jian Xin neatly lined up in three rows, standing inside the inn.
Li Zhentian, Ouyang Lan and Mrs. Zhou were in front of everyone, facing everyone. Ouyang Lan asked the servant: "Which one of you took it?"
The servants all started whispering, but no one answered Ouyang Lan's question.
Ouyang Lan raised her voice and threatened: "I ask again, which one of you took the jade belt from the room between me and the owner of the village. If I find it out myself, I will never let you have anything good to eat. .”
Mrs. Zhou followed Ouyang Lan's words and added: "Let me tell you, that jade belt was given by the Emperor. If any of you have dirty hands and feet, if you are caught, it will definitely be a crime of beheading, but you must think clearly. "
As soon as these words came out, the servants stopped even whispering and looked at each other in shock.
Seeing this scene, Ouyang Lan looked at everyone and nodded, and said angrily: "You don't admit it, right? OK, I'm going to find someone to check it out now." Ouyang Lan was about to go out.
Li Zhentian stopped and said, "Lan'er, what do you want to do?"
"I'm going to find someone. I'll ask Brother Liu to arrange for people from the Jiangmen Alliance to come one by one and search carefully."
"Why do people from the Jiangsu Alliance intervene in anything that happens? Do they just have nothing to do every day and come to do things for us?"
When Ouyang Lan heard this, her tone became even more impulsive, "Okay! I won't call you Jiang Meng, I'll just look for my sworn brother and Brother Han. They must have something to do."
"I think we should solve the problem ourselves first, and then ask others for help if we can't solve it. We can't just rely on others for any problem. What will we do if these people are no longer around in the future?"
"Then what do you mean?"
"Let's interrogate one by one internally. Even if we really can't find it, I'll report it to the emperor and then ask someone to do something."
Zhou Weimin came forward and said: "Yes, sister. Now the officials are the famous people around the emperor, what is a mere jade belt?"
"What's wrong with you!" Ouyang Lan was so angry now that she didn't look good on anyone. After Zhou Weimin heard this, he walked away angrily.
"Lan'er, it was me and I who went on a trip yesterday and came back a little late. If we had taken good care of it in advance, this wouldn't have happened. But now that it has happened, let's try our best to find it first. If it doesn't work, I will ask the emperor for instructions. One more thing, please don’t be so angry.”
Ouyang Lan remained silent.
Li Zhentian continued: "The emperor gave us this gift to wear to the enthronement ceremony. Could it be that without a jade belt, we won't be able to participate in the enthronement ceremony?"
"But." Ouyang Lan hesitated, sighed softly, and had no choice but to compromise. "Okay. Let's check it out ourselves first."
Li Zhentian said to the servants: "You stole things because you wanted to get some money. My second wife also said just now that this is a gift from the emperor. You can't pour it out even if you take it. If it is found out, it will still be a crime of beheading." If you really have difficulties and need money, just return the things and I will help you solve your difficulties. Don't worry, I, Li Zhentian, will do what I say. As long as you take the initiative to send it back, we will treat it as if it never happened."
Li Zhentian's words were very authoritative and sincere, which made these servants admire him. Even so, no one came forward to admit it. Li Zhentian added: "There are still four days left for the enthronement ceremony. As long as you come before then, I will let it go. But at the moment, interrogation is still indispensable. You guys stand still and we will ask them one by one."
Ouyang Lan remembered something and said to the three foremen: "The usual work is arranged by you. If you think about it carefully, who entered or cried in our room yesterday."
The three people nodded and began to explain to Ouyang Lan. After hearing this, Ouyang Lan said to the servants: "Okay. You all stand in line. We have to ask one by one. No one is missing."
