Listening to Cheng Anghunlai, Yan Zhuang still smiled and said: "Brother Cheng, tell me, why are the heroes from all over the world gathered here today, together with the Western Army and Liyuan? It can't be for sightseeing, right?"
Cheng Ang said: "Come on, it's just a sightseeing trip. There are so many scenic spots in Yuezhou. It's not surprising that I, Old Cheng, came here to enjoy them..."
Mr. Ruxiang stopped Cheng Ang with a wave of his hand and said: "Nephew Cheng Shi, the Battle of Hanshui made too much noise. Many friends on the Green Forest Road have heard about it. It seems that friends in the Eastern Army have also got the news. If we want to Pretending to be dumbfounded would appear to be petty."
Cheng Ang didn't care about the laughter and curses of others, but he was very respectful to Li Yong. After hearing what Li Yong said, he quickly crossed his hands and saluted, "Mr. Ru Xiang is teaching me a lesson, it's my nephew Meng Lang."
Mr. Ruxiang turned to Ge Ruliang and said: "You guys from the Eastern Army have come all the way. It seems that you already know the truth. It's useless to hide it anymore. Now that you're here, please invite them to come with you."
Ge Ruliang cupped his hands to Mr. Ruxiang and said, "But according to Mr. Ruxiang's instructions, Mr. He's Lei Master has not arrived yet. How about asking you to rest in the villa for a night and wait for a few days until the Lei Master arrives and then hold a meeting?" "
It was indeed too late at this time. Cangtou in the village had already held a torch, illuminating a small cloud pool. Everyone nodded in agreement. Ge Ruliang was about to arrange for Cangtou to take everyone to rest somewhere. Yan Zhuang An Qingxu, the young master behind him, suddenly said: "Mr. Yan, we have to see it tonight, so as not to change after a few more days."
Although he spoke to Yan Zhuang, his tone was very high, and it was obviously meant for Ge Ruliang. Everyone present looked angry when they heard the words. Ge Ruliang snorted and said: "In this land of rivers and lakes, Mr. Ruxiang promises a thousand pieces of gold. How can there be any change if the orders are like mountains?"
Yan Zhuang quickly clasped his fists and said, "Master Ge Zhuang, please calm down. Mr. An didn't mean that. I just heard that friends from Wuhu got this treasure. We set out from Pinglu and traveled four thousand miles in ten months to finally catch up with the grand meeting." , Now that we are so close to the treasure, I am a bit eager to take a look at it, so please forgive me, Master."
He had previously said that he was passing by and heard something happy, and now he said that he came from Pinglu after hearing that a treasure had been obtained here. It seems that what Yan Zhuang said was not entirely true. I really don't know what the plans of everyone in Pinglu were for this trip.
The old man in red robe also spoke out to persuade: "Gesheng, don't be angry. I think this An Erlang is also a young man. It's understandable that he can't wait to see rare objects. In fact, I and Li Sheng can't bear their temper and want to get together today." It’s good to watch, but the rightful owner hasn’t arrived yet…”
Jiang Shuo suddenly said: "We're here."
Xiang'er turned her head and glared at him. Just as she was about to speak, she heard a thunderbolt in the air. The sky was clear and clear at this time, with not a single cloud at all. The thunder came so suddenly that Xiang'er was unprepared and frightened. He covered his ears, and everyone present was shocked, but seeing the moon on the treetops and the clear night sky, how could there be thunder? Then there were several more "dong" and "dong" sounds. Only then did everyone realize that it was not the sound of thunder, but the sound of drums. Then a burst of intensive drum beats sounded. For a moment, there were countless drums beating at the same time, like thousands of troops. The horses rushed to the formation to knock the gate, and Cheng Ang asked in surprise: "Are the bird thieves coming to besiege the villa?" He was about to capture the guy with his backhand, and there was a burst of cries in the east corridor. Many of the weak ones had already unsheathed their weapons and held them in their hands. Got it in hand.
Mr. He smiled and stopped Cheng Ang and said: "Mr. Cheng, don't be alarmed. Master Lei is here. Open the water gate quickly."
Nan Jiyun hurriedly directed Villa Cangtou to reopen the water gate. At this time, the sun was out and the moon was rising, and it was when the fog on the lake was thick. As the water gate opened, the lake fog poured in, really like a "cloud pool", but it was not clear how many people were coming, and I could only hear the sound of something in the clouds. Countless drumbeats could be heard faintly, but the water gate was not wide, so how could so many drummers pour in? While everyone was in shock and confusion, there was suddenly another loud noise, and the mist was torn apart like a tangible thin cloth, revealing a big drum. This drum was extremely huge, with a diameter of more than six feet and a thickness of no less than three feet. In front of the big drum, Standing was a tall man in red robe, who looked like a monk with a shaved head. He was very strong in life. There was a white hemp rope crisscrossed on his chest. The sleeves and corners of the red robe were rolled up and tucked into the knot. , revealing a pair of arms with extremely strong muscles, and the legs of his trousers were rolled up high, revealing a pair of bare feet stepping in the water.
There are four small drums on each corner of the big drum. The small drums are two or three feet in diameter. There was also a red-robed man standing in front of each drum. They all had their heads shaved and were dressed like the man in the center. They had their trousers rolled up. However, each of the four people was holding a pennies in their hands as if they were punting a boat. But the strange thing is that this There was no boat under the five people's feet. The five people seemed to be standing on the lake and stepping on the water.
Cheng Ang said: "You are so good. These five people came on the waves. Could it be that the real God of Thunder has come to the world?"
Nan Jiyun pointed at their feet and said, "Brother Cheng, look carefully."
It turned out that there was a large bamboo raft under the feet of the five people. The big drum was quite heavy and pressed the entire bamboo raft under the water. The feet of the red-robed men were immersed in the water. The sky was dark at the moment. If you didn't look carefully, you could still be walking on the water. Although it was early summer at this time, the lake water was still extremely cold at night, but the red-robed monk didn't care. He was playing the drums with two huge drumsticks in his hands. The drums were rumbling. It turned out that he was the only one playing the drums that made the earth-shattering sound just now.
Entering the center of the cloud pool, the four people at the four corners plunged their bamboo pennies into the water, took out drumsticks from their arms, and started playing the drums. The person in the center slowly swung the drumsticks, like a war horse ready to go. The atmosphere of the battlefield was about to explode. Each time the man waved the drumstick, it was slightly faster than the previous time. At first, everyone was not aware of it, but after a while, the sound of the big drums became dense and dense, and the small drums also accelerated together. It was the war horses that had accelerated their sprint. Suddenly, there was a loud bang from the big drum, as if the horses from both sides had collided. The five drums, one big, four small, and five were no longer in order, but formed their own rhythms, like thousands of troops fighting against each other. After a while, the drum sound gradually became smaller, and it seemed that the cavalry on both sides were slowly pulling away from each other. Another burst of neat drum beats sounded, and the cavalry began to line up again. The drum sound gradually grew louder, and the cavalry began to sprint again, and crashed into the enemy with another bang. Together, over and over again, the sound of fighting finally became sparse and silent, and at the same time, neat and celebratory drumbeats sounded, like the sound of victory and triumph.
In the midst of the excitement, the big drum made another loud bang, breaking the ropes binding the bamboo rafts. The bamboo rafts immediately fell apart. Four people from the four corners jumped to the two sides holding small drums, but their skills were far inferior to Grandpa Xiang'er. They all used The bamboo pole rested on the lake for a while before landing. The red-robed monk in the middle was quite capable of lightness. He was holding a giant drum in one hand and a pair of drumsticks in the other. He jumped forward, using only his feet on the water for support. After two beats, he jumped up to the high platform, put down the giant drum and bowed to Mr. He.
The bamboo rafts spread out and floated on the lake, and the broken bamboo pieces floated slowly on the lake. They looked like the ruins of a battlefield. For a moment, everything was silent, and the fighting and celebration just now seemed like an ancient dream.
Mr. He said happily: "The skills of the Thunder Master have become more and more refined. Please get up quickly. All the heroes in the world are waiting for you."
There was no warning before the "Thunder Master" drum sounded. Everyone held their breath and listened to Mr. He's words. Most of them did not notice anyone coming from outside the water gate. Although Jiang Shuo spoke softly, many people heard him say "We're here". They couldn't help but secretly marvel at the words. The monk on the west corridor opposite was a great martial arts master. Both of them secretly wondered, could this child's internal strength be so profound at such a young age?
The red-robed monk stood up and clasped his fists and said, "Thank you, Mr. He." He turned around and saluted the old master and said, "Lei Qingzang has met Mr. Ruxiang."
Mr. Ruxiang returned the greeting and said: "Master Lei deserves to be the number one in the drum department. I have heard about Master Lei for a long time. I am very lucky to hear about his magical skills today."
Lei Qingzang gave a ridiculous compliment, then turned back to the group of heroes under the east and west corridors, clasping his fists and cupping his hands, and said: "Everyone please come, Qingzang is late, but I still hope to see Haihan."
Many of the heroes knew Lei Qingzang's name, and cheers immediately erupted from the audience.
Yan Zhuang opened his mouth and chanted: "'Accept the law and resign the head of state, and the prime minister will attack the rebellious ministers. The Xiange breaks the formation music, and the Taiping people enjoy it together.' Dongcang Drum Music Lei Master is indeed well-deserved, a queue of Qin King's breaking formation music, although there are only five people Just like thousands of troops and horses, the drum music is so majestic. How lucky are the villagers to hear the sounds of nature twice in one day."
Lei Qingzang didn't know Yan Zhuang, so after hearing his praise, he held two drumsticks in his left hand and raised his right hand to salute him.
Yan Zhuangxu said to Mr. He: "Mr. He said that the real master must be the Thunder Master. Now that the Thunder Master has arrived, can everyone please move and take a look?"
Most of the people present were wealthy businessmen. In fact, they had already become impatient with the wait. Someone immediately responded and said, "Yes, I can't wait any longer." "Master, please do it."
Mr. Ruxiang looked a little embarrassed and said to Lei Qingzang and Li Ji: "You two just arrived today and are tired from the journey. Do you want to take a rest?"
Li Jie said: "Today I met Dugu Zhang, and I feel enlightened and enlightened. This is really a happy thing in my life. I am not tired at all at this moment. It just depends on Master Lei's will."
Lei Qingzang arrived late and didn't know about the flute fight between Li Jie and Dugu Zhang. He glanced at Li Jie and didn't want to ask any more questions. He turned to Mr. He and said, "Qingzang doesn't feel tired. Please give me some advice from Mr. He." Come down." After saying that, he bowed to Mr. He.
Mr. He turned to Mr. Ruxiang and said: "I don't think anyone has any intention of taking a rest today. If it drags on for another night, many people will not be able to sleep. If you want me to do business, tonight is the best choice."
Mr. Ru Xiang nodded, and then looked at the monk in the west corridor. The two of them nodded to him without waiting for him to ask. Mr. Ru Xiang understood, and said to Ge Ruliang: "Since all my good friends are here to support me, then... Don’t be afraid of being late, so just do it tonight.”
Ge Ruliang saluted Mr. Ruxiang and said, "I obey your order." He said to everyone in a loud voice, "Please take a step and take a look."
After saying this, he stretched out his hand to greet everyone. Yan Zhuang also crossed his arms and saluted Ge Ruliang, but Ge Ruliang flicked his sleeves and turned away.
