What Jiang Shuo looked back at was a group of three people. All three of them were taller than the average person. The one in front was especially tall. He had a face like iron and a beard like a halberd, like a black iron tower. The two behind him were fatter and thinner. , the fat one has a fleshy face and looks quite ferocious, while the thin one has a peaceful face and has three locks of black beard, just like a Han scribe.
But this thin man is obviously not Han. His skin looks very rough, but there are two traces of scarlet color on his cheeks. It was the end of spring and the beginning of summer. Even though we were on the mountain during the day, it was already very warm. Everyone was wearing single clothes, but these three were wearing fur coats trimmed with fur. However, all three of them had their right sides exposed - all of the fur coats were Wearing only the left sleeve, the right sleeve is tied around the waist, revealing the brocade dress underneath from the left chest.
The three of them all wore plain leather boots with pointed toes, but their heads were different. The thin man wore a flat hat, the fat man wore a white pointed hat, and the tall man in front of him had a white hat. He was not wearing a hat, and his hair was spread over his shoulders, braided into dozens of braids. Various gemstones were braided in the braids, the red ones were coral, the yellow ones were beeswax, the green ones were turquoise...
Cheng Qianli clicked his tongue and said, "Where did the savages come from? They are rich but disheveled and have such rough skin, yet they imitate women in applying blush."
But Ruixi recognized the clothes of these three people and said: "They are from Tubo. The crimson on their faces is not blush, but sunburn. It is said that Tubo lives on the plateau and is ten thousand feet away from the sun, so their faces are sunburned." hurt……"
Everyone looked at each other and couldn't believe that if you live high up and get closer to the sun, your skin will get sunburned.
Both Lu Yuxuan and Ruixi had seen the two mysterious notes. At this moment, they were moved when they saw the three Tubo people. However, they were afraid that Cheng Qianli could not keep the secret and did not tell him what happened last night. Therefore, Cheng Qianli was confused and asked Said: "What are the backgrounds of these three Tubo people? What are they doing in the Taoist Academy?"
Ruixi said: "The man at first was a general, but his status was not as good as that of the fat man behind him, while the thin man was a low-ranking official."
Jiang Shuo asked curiously: "Elder, how do you know?"
Ruixi said: "Look at the small box hanging on their chest."
Jiang Shuo carefully looked at the part where their furs were opened, and sure enough, a small box three inches square was hung on a thin iron chain. He said wisely: "This is the insignia of the Tubo officials. According to the Tubo system, the first class is decorated with a gold box. "Sese, the second class uses a gold box, the third class gold is covered with silver, the fourth class is silver, the fifth class is copper, and the sixth class is iron. These six classes are divided into large and small, with a total of 12 levels, which are hung on the chest to distinguish the high and low official ranks."
Jiang Shuo saw that there was a silver box hanging on the chest of the tall man. He seemed to be a fourth-class noble, but he didn't know whether it was an upper or lower fourth class. Then he saw that the fat man had a golden box hanging on his chest. He was obviously a distinguished noble. As for the thin man, the box on his chest was black, so he was obviously a low-level official.
Jiang Shuo thought that indeed the fat man had the highest title, but it seemed that the tall Tubo warrior was the real owner of the note last night, while the thin man had no idea what he did.
At this time, Zhuge Qingxu had already walked out of the back hall. He first saw the three Tubo people, and then saw Jiang Shuo and others present. He couldn't help but look embarrassed. He first crossed his hands and saluted Jiang Shuo and others, and then said to the Tubo people: " The three of you are here and you don’t know what’s going on?”
The fat man said: "Hey, I've heard for a long time that the Kongtong sect's martial arts has a long history, so I came here to pay my respects. I don't want a martial arts sect to do something so sarcastic that it seems difficult to live up to its reputation. "
Only then did Jiang Shuo realize that it was the fat man who had spoken just now, not the tall warrior in front of him. This fat man spoke with great authority, and it seemed that he should not be underestimated.
Zhuge Qingxu said: "Who is your Excellency? I, the founder of the Kongtong Shenquan Sect, have been establishing the sect for hundreds of years. I have my own way of practice, but I don't need anyone else to comment on it."
The fat man laughed loudly and said: "I am the brother-in-law of Tubo Zanpu, Ma Xiangzhong Bajie! Ordinarily, it has nothing to do with me how you Han people practice martial arts, but now that the Tubo army is at its peak, one day I will conquer all the land in Longyou, Hexi Sooner or later, Kongtong will also be my Tubo land, so if you are practicing like this, if you are not good at writing or martial arts, won't you do harm to Tubo?"
Zhuge Qingxu said angrily: "You are so rude! Tubo fought with Tang Dynasty and lost nine out of ten battles. Only last year, they got a little advantage by relying on the dangerous terrain of Shibao City. Your Excellency, you have the face of a villain who has succeeded. It's really funny!" "
When Zhuge Qingxu was talking, the skinny man's lips kept moving, and he didn't know what curse he was reciting. After Zhuge Qingxu finished speaking, the tall Tibetan warrior suddenly said angrily: "Don't let Gabusi Gurgusi be muddled!" Abradine and Yonggudu!"
The warrior's voice was like a cow roaring, but no one could understand a single word. Qianqianli said, "Hey, what kind of bird language are you, a big mountain leader, talking about?"
The thin man crossed his arms. Compared to the fat Tubo nobles and tall Tubo warriors, he was actually half a head taller than the Han people. He glanced at an arm and said loudly: "This This is my Tibetan general, Iron Blade Xinuoluo, and he is talking about Mr. Zhuge... this, this, this..."
He said "this" three times in a row, and finally choked out a sentence: "I'm just showing off my words. I would like to ask Mr. Zhuge... this face to face... for advice, and compete in martial arts."
It turned out that this low-level official was here to be the translator. It was very embarrassing to see him stumbling when interpreting. I am afraid that this Iron Blade Signoro was not as polite as him in interpreting.
Although Zhuge Qingxu didn't understand the Tubo language, looking at the bossy look on his face when he spoke, it seemed that what he wanted to say was not a good thing. Although he was well-read in poetry and books, and quite Confucian, how could he endure being insulted by others? He was about to have a seizure. , but Sima Qingyun, who came over, held his hand.
Sima Qingyun said: "I think the three of you are here to participate in the martial arts conference in three days. If you want to compare notes, why not wait until three days later?"
While speaking, he winked at Zhuge Qingxu. Zhuge Qingxu finally flicked his sleeves and turned his head with a "hum".
Seeing that Zhuge Qingxu didn't respond, the iron-blade Xinuoluo laughed loudly and said: "Let Haguhams go, sell Reti, sell Kareze!" After saying that, he proudly turned to the thin man and raised his eyebrows, saying: "Tashi Zhamuxia, Wei Ga is endless!"
Although everyone did not understand the Tubo dialect, they roughly knew that Iron Blade Xenoro must be extremely sarcastic, and what he said to the thin man later was asked to translate it truthfully.
Zhuge Qingxu turned his head and was about to get angry, but Sima Changqing grabbed his wrist tightly and firmly shook his head at him. Zhuge Qingxu sighed and stopped talking.
At this time, I heard someone shout loudly, and it was Tiezheng Daoyuan who jumped out. His eyebrows were raised, and he said to the thin man: "That Tubo man, what did your general say? Just translate it truthfully." "
The thin man hesitated and said: "Well... General Iron Blade said that it is ridiculous for Mr. Zhuge to pretend to be a great master..."
The three sects of Kongtong share the same spirit. Although the three saints are from different sects, they regard each other as brothers. Tie Zheng Daoyuan is the youngest among the three and has the hottest temper. After hearing the interpretation of the thin man, he laughed angrily and said : "Hey, you're such a big fool, but you're not worthy of being taught Mr. Zhuge's mysterious martial arts. Your name is 'Iron Blade', and my name is 'Iron Zheng', so I'll be able to teach you your brilliant skills."
Sima Qingyun stepped forward to pull him and said: "Daoyuan..."
Tie Zheng Daoyuan then shook off his hand and said: "Brother Sima, others are bullying us, are we really just cowards?"
Seeing that the Tubo general was aggressive, Sima Qingyun expected that if he didn't take action today, the situation would be difficult to end, so he could only nodded and said: "Okay, Brother Dao Yuan, please be careful." Sima Qingyun pulled the two men, not because he thought they were no match for the Tubo people. It was really hard to tell, but he didn't take this black iron tower-like Tubo man seriously.
Giants may appear tall and mighty on the battlefield, quite frightening to ordinary soldiers, but Chinese martial arts has always emphasized the importance of moving a thousand pounds with four ounces, and breaking a thousand pounds with one stroke of skill. The Three Saints of Kongtong are all great masters of martial arts, so how could they be afraid of a seemingly stupid giant?
At this time, the thin man had translated Tie Zheng Dogen's words to Tie Ren Xinuo Luo. The Tubo giant laughed strangely and said: "Ah Gudu, Gah is not poor!"
As he spoke, he suddenly shot out and hit Tie Zheng Daoyuan with a fist as big as a vinegar bowl!
Tie Zheng Daoyuan sneered. Although he was a Buddhist, the Kung Fu he practiced was not that of Shaolin. He could only see that he could not move his feet and swam up. While avoiding Xinolo's fist, he used a small grappling technique with four fingers. It has caught the right arm of the Tubo giant.
He had used this move before when he and Jiang Shuo were fighting, and Jiang Shuo easily resolved it with a thumb. However, the Tubo giant did not have such skill. Although the punch was fierce, it only went straight with no change. Yuan Yi grabbed the Neiguan point of the pulse door.
Everyone shook their heads after looking at it, thinking that the Tubo giant spoke so cruelly but turned out to be just a big fool, and was immediately restrained by Dao Yuan.
Daoyuan was also very happy in his heart. He clasped Xinuolo's pulse gate with force and pulled him back. No matter how good a person's kung fu is, as long as his pulse gate is clasped, his whole body will naturally become weak and weak. Daoyuan thought to me He only made him stumble and then stopped, which didn't count as disobeying "that person".
Unexpectedly, Xinolo didn't move at all. At the same time, he hooked his left hand and punched Daoyuan again in the face. This fist carried the wind and thunder, making a loud sound, and it did not look like it was weak and weak due to being blocked at the pulse gate.
Daoyuan was taken aback and hurriedly let go to avoid it. He turned around and avoided the punch. At the same time, he shot out and touched Xinolo's left arm. This time, he clasped his fingers on the four acupoints of Tianjing, Xiaohai, Shaohai and Quze. , if any one of the four acupoints is tapped, an ordinary person's arms will become numb and he will be unable to lift his fists.
Xinuolo remained unmoved. He raised his left arm and swatted at Dogen's four fingers like a gnat with his right hand.
Dao Yuan quickly retracted his hand, but Xinolo was not stupid enough to slap his left arm with his right hand. Instead, he pushed with his right palm, stretched his left arm, and hit Dao Yuan in the chest with his elbow.
Dao Yuan felt a strong wind blowing against his chest and quickly shrank his head to avoid the elbow.
Xinuolo intertwined his fingers into a hammer and smashed downwards. Daoyuan didn't care about his status as a master at this time and rolled away on the spot.
Although Xinuolo didn't seem to know how to do light kung fu, he was extremely tall and could take two or three steps as long as an ordinary person. He strode to catch up and punched him again.
Daoyuan kicked out his legs in succession on the ground, hitting Xinuolo's Ququan, Zhongdu, and Yingu acupoints. These are all acupoints that can cause numbness in the legs and feet. However, they were ineffective against Xinuolo. Xinuolo was like copper. He looks like a god made of cast iron, with copper skin and iron bones all over his body, but there is not a single acupuncture point in his body.
Some people died, but not completely...
