"Jushi Xiang, please"
Cao Yi made a gesture of invitation.
Xiang Liang was stunned for a moment, and then walked over excitedly. It was his honor to be able to ride on this fairy treasure.
After carefully climbing onto the gourd, Xiang Liang still felt a sense of unreality and stepped on the gourd carefully.
"Don't step on it, it will throw you down."
Cao Yi reminded.
Xiang Liang stopped immediately.
Xiang Yu's voice came from the shore.
"Sir, let's see who gets there first"
All these are better than Xiang Yu who is very competitive.
Cao Yi was speechless.
There was a sound of horses, and Cao Yi looked again. Xiang Yu and Yi Xiaochuan were already gone.
"Let's go too"
Cao Yi used the luck method of "Gold Liquid Returning Pill Method" to instill pure spiritual energy into the gourd.
The next second, the purple-gold-red gourd, which was still lying on the spot, sped out like a speedboat, causing high waves in the water.
Fortunately, in this era, there was no one on both sides of the bank or on the river. Otherwise, I don’t know how many people would have been frightened.
"Sir, Liang has always had a question in his mind?"
He tightened his legs on the gourd's neck beam and suddenly said loudly.
"What questions?"
Cao Yi said casually.
"Why do you call yourself Pindao, sir, and also call Liang a layman?"
Xiang Liang said loudly.
This is the question actually asked.
"You don't need to take it to heart when you call someone from the countryside."
Cao Yi said casually.
Xiang Liang didn't ask again.
After six or seven minutes, the gourd's speed doubled. After twelve or thirteen minutes, the gourd dropped a lot and became much smaller.
The reason why Cao Yi did this was that on the one hand he didn't want to waste too much spiritual energy that he had finally cultivated, and on the other hand there were people around him.
"Look, there's a huge gourd over there."
“I’ve never seen such a big gourd before”
…
There were constant sounds of surprise.
"Jushi Xiang, how far is it from where you live?"
Cao Yi asked.
"There are still five or six miles."
Xiang Liang replied.
"Since it's not far, let's go ashore."
Cao Yi controlled the purple, gold and red gourds and came to the reed shelter on the shore. He went ashore and collected the gourds.
The two of them walked for about two-quarters of an hour. On the horizon, a village covering a large area appeared. It was surrounded by mountains, water, and woods. It could be called a geomantic treasure land.
"This is the last place of honor for my Xiang family."
Xiang Liang had a sad look on his face.
Cao Yi didn't answer.
After walking for a while, yellow mud houses, thatched houses, and bamboo houses appeared one by one. From time to time, people wearing linen clothes greeted Xiang Liang.
Cao Yi looked around like an outsider.
Soon, we came to a courtyard where many people gathered.
Xiang Yu's black horse was tied to a wooden stake at the entrance of the courtyard, and noisy sounds could be heard from time to time inside.
Someone called out that the clan leader was back, and everyone looked over.
Cao Yi, who was walking side by side with Xiang Liang, was also noticed and saluted by many people.
"Uncle, sir"
"Master, sir"
Xiang Yu and Yi Xiaochuan walked out of the crowd.
"The first level is about the art of war. Go to the Bamboo House."
Xiang Liang was very straightforward.
The bamboo house is in the northwest corner of the yard, and you can reach it within a few steps.
"Jushi Xiang, Pindao is not interested in the art of war exam and is just wandering around."
Cao Yi said suddenly.
Xiang Liang was stunned for a moment and nodded.
Cao Yi walked around the village minding his own business.
In the village, it was easy for strangers to attract attention, and Cao Yi didn't care. He just enjoyed the scenery and walked around. When he came back, he saw Yi Xiaochuan coming out of the bamboo house.
"How about it?"
"tie"
"What's the next game?"
"Comparing strength"
"This is the strength of layman Xiaoxiang"
"I have a way to beat him"
Yi Xiaochuan looked confident.
After a while, Xiang Yu and Xiang Liang came out.
Xiang Liang announced loudly: "First level, tie"
There was cheering all around, and I didn’t know what they were cheering for.
"Second level, wrestling"
Xiang Liang then announced.
"Me first"
Xiang Yu walked to the center of the yard under the awed eyes of the people around him.
On the ground, a majestic giant bronze cauldron was placed at some point.
Like last time, Xiang Yu took off his shirt and puffed out his strong chest. Under the fiery gazes of the girls around him, he came to the giant bronze cauldron. He hugged it up and down, and amidst the exclamations of everyone, he lifted the three to four hundred kilograms into the cauldron. The heavy bronze cauldron was lifted up.
With a muffled sound, Xiang Yu calmly lowered the cauldron.
Xiang Yu raised his head and met Cao Yi, who had been looking at him. A small feeling of pride arose in his heart, but it immediately disappeared.
"It's my turn"
The thin Yi Xiaochuan came out.
There was a burst of laughter around them, and everyone took Yi Xiaochuan as a joke.
Yi Xiaochuan was not angry either. He ran here and there to get things. After more than 20 minutes, he produced a big wooden lever with a giant bronze cauldron tied to one end and the other end in his hand.
"I'm going to pull it off"
Yi Xiaochuan winked for a while.
The jeers around him grew louder.
Yi Xiaochuan continued to ink for a while, prompting Xiang Liang to scold him before he started to pull.
Then, except for Cao Yi and Yi Xiaochuan himself, everyone present was shocked. When Xiang Yu put it down just now, the green-black bronze tripod that had been sunk in the soil slowly rose up.
"How was it? Did I win?"
Yi Xiaochuan looked around with a smile on his face.
When he saw Cao Yi, his smile froze. When he was pretending to be cool, it was very embarrassing to meet someone who knew everything.
At this time, a burst of cheers sounded.
Yi Xiaochuan came to his senses and put the giant cauldron down again with a smile.
Unlike Xiang Yu who suddenly put it down just now, he put it down very easily. From this point on, he is one step ahead of Xiang Yu.
"In the second game, Yi Xiaochuan won"
Xiang Liang announced the results.
"I don't accept it. He won through opportunism."
Xiang Yu said loudly.
"Yu'er, fighting is the same as using troops. What's important is ever-changing. Although Xiaochuan is not as strong as you, he beats you in wisdom. Xiaochuan indeed won this level."
Xiang Liang twisted his beard and said.
"Did you see that the master said I won?"
Yi Xiaochuan looked a little proud.
Xiang Yu looked disdainful.
In his world, real men should fight one-on-one based on their true abilities.
"Feather"
Xiang Liang's expression suddenly became more severe than ever before.
Xiang Yu sighed inwardly, it was about to start again.
Xiang Liang pointed to the giant bronze cauldron and said earnestly: "A warrior can lift at most one cauldron, but what about a country and a country? The courage of an ordinary man will only make things worse. Wisdom and strategy are king!"
Xiang Yu was very disgusted with his uncle's preaching, but he didn't dare to refute on face, so he bowed his head and agreed.
"After a stick of incense, the third game, a martial arts competition"
Xiang Liang said loudly.
Hearing Xiang Liang's words, the smile on Yi Xiaochuan's face disappeared. The martial arts competition was no different than other martial arts, and he couldn't take advantage of the situation, so he would definitely lose.
Just when Yi Xiaochuan was feeling depressed, a person caught his eye.
Taoist priest!
In this world, the only one who can help him win is the Taoist priest.
Cao Yi, who had been watching the excitement, saw Yi Xiaochuan coming, but it was not what he wanted.
"Taoist Master"
"Come this way"
