The sound of the drums increased from slow to fast. When the drums stopped, a young Yin official wearing the official uniform of the Han Dynasty appeared in the center of the Tai Chi stone platform. This man was not very old, no more than 30 years old, and he was tall and thin. , fair-skinned, handsome and handsome.
After the young Yin official appeared, he looked around. Different from the expressionless face of the middle-aged Yin official, this man's face had some expressions. He was calm but stern, and calm but solemn.
After looking around, the young Yin official's eyes returned to Datou. After looking at Datou up and down, he moved to the south side. However, he did not transform into the top position like the middle-aged Yin official, but straightened up. Standing on the edge of the Tai Chi stone platform, he said, "You have come a long way and have a hard time. You deserve to rest and regain your consciousness. But time is waiting for us. Let's start early. Each of you can show your abilities and try to stay on the stage for an hour."
As soon as the young Yin official finished speaking, a young guard general stood up. At the same time, there were people in the Zhengxi Li position, Northwest Dui position and Zhengnan Kun position. There were also people in several other positions who were eager to try.
Everyone on our side was sitting in the front row of the Xun position. The general of the imperial guard who got up was closest to the Tai Chi stone platform. Since it is forbidden to use body skills to pass over other people's heads in the Immortal Palace, this general of the imperial guard thought that he could be the first to take the stage. When I wanted to leave my seat, someone quickly ran onto the stage.
Changsheng recognized this person. He was Ouyang Chuanfeng, the right protector of the Beggar Clan. His eagerness to come to power was undoubtedly under the instruction of Long Haotian.
After Long Haotian was recruited by the imperial court, all the disciples of the Beggar Clan were also recruited. After Long Haotian was granted the title of County King, his subordinates naturally became more prosperous. Now Ouyang Chuanfeng has been granted the title of General of Yizhou, with a rank of fourth rank.
The imperial guard general who tried to take the stage was named Yang Dongbao. Seeing his fellow minister Ouyang Chuanfeng take the stage first, Yang Dongbao felt troubled and hurriedly turned to look at Changsheng.
Changsheng tilted his head to the side and did not look at Yang Dongbao. Without any hint from Changsheng, Yang Dongbao could only look at Liu Tianlin. Liu Tianlin frowned and nodded, indicating that Yang Dongbao would go directly to the stage without any need to avoid words.
With Liu Tianlin's approval, Yang Dongbao stepped onto the stage before the other person, while other people who tried to get on the stage could only stop and retreat.
When Yang Dongbao came on stage, Ouyang Chuanfeng was already saluting the young Yin official, "I am Ouyang Chuanfeng. I am the general of Yizhou under the command of Long Haotian, the king of Xichuan County. See you, Mr. Yin official."
After Ouyang Chuanfeng finished speaking, Yang Dongbao then rushed to the young Yin official to greet him, "I, Yang Dongbao, deputy commander of the Imperial Guards of the Yulin Forest of the Tang Dynasty, would like to see you, sir."
For the two to compete on the same stage, everyone outside the venue was surprised, because both of them were military commanders of the imperial court, and being on stage at the same time was tantamount to internal strife.
The young Yin official smiled and waved his hand, "No need to be polite, let's get started."
Hearing what the young Yin official said, the two of them turned around and faced each other nine feet apart. At the same time, the drums sounded again.
Ouyang Chuanfeng did not carry a weapon, while Yang Dongbao carried a sword. Seeing that Ouyang Chuanfeng did not carry a weapon, Yang Dongbao hesitated, "General Ouyang, I am used to using a sword, please bear with me."
"It doesn't matter," Ouyang Chuanfeng sneered and waved his hand, "I practice cinnabar palm, but the heat is not enough, so I can't send and receive it freely. If I don't use the strength when I do it, I hope General Yang won't blame me. "
After the two of them finished speaking, they turned to look at Long Haotian and Liu Tianlin respectively. Long Haotian smiled but Liu Tianlin frowned and nodded. Although their expressions were different, the message they conveyed was the same, which was a hint. There is no need to show mercy to their respective subordinates.
The sound of the drums went from slow to fast, then stopped suddenly after a while. Yang Dongbao drew his sword and concentrated on alert, while Ouyang Chuanfeng turned to his side and raised his hands, ready to stand ready.
Both parties knew the importance of this battle, which not only affected the ownership of the bronze amulet, but also affected the reputation of their superiors, so they were extremely cautious and no one dared to act rashly.
Seeing the delay in the two men taking action, some spectators outside the field were dissatisfied and criticized, saying that the Tang Dynasty was so shameless that they sent two people from the stage at the same time to deliberately delay time.
Changsheng looked around and saw that the person speaking turned out to be a dark-faced Tianzhu monk, about forty years old, with a fat head, big ears, a big belly, and a shiny face.
This person's Chinese was not good, and his pronunciation was not very standard. He muttered it once and felt annoyed, and then he started nagging again, slandering Datang for being shameless.
Due to the strict prohibition of making loud noises in the Immortal Palace, no one else spoke, no one agreed or refuted, but Datou had already obtained the bronze amulet, so he no longer had any scruples. Seeing the Tianzhu monk's constant nagging, he endured it. He couldn't help but sarcastically say, "Not only does he look like a pig, he also has a pig's brain."
The monk knew that Da Tou was scolding him, and couldn't help but get angry. However, he did not dare to scold Da Tou, so he complained to the young Yin official on the stage, "God, that dwarf scolded me."
The young Yin official did not expect that this obese monk would be so naive as to complain to him, but his temperament was much more agreeable than the previous middle-aged Yin official, so he explained casually, "If you want to win the competition, everyone must be on the stage. Stay for an hour, and if someone succeeds in the challenge, it will be postponed for another hour. There is no deliberate delay."
After hearing the young Yin official's explanation, the obese monk realized that he had made a mistake, but he refused to admit it, "That's not possible. They just stood there and didn't fight. We can only wait for the harm."
The young Yin official smiled and raised his hand, pointing to the exit, "You can come and go freely. You can leave if you can't wait."
Although the young Yin official said with a smile, the fat monk did not dare to be presumptuous anymore, lowered his head and stopped talking.
After waiting for a while, Yang Dongbao could no longer hold back and drew his sword first. Ouyang Chuanfeng used his cinnabar palm to fight with his bare hands.
Yang Dongbao and Ouyang Chuanfeng are both mountain cultivators. Ouyang Chuanfeng is more than ten years older than Yang Dongbao. In terms of talent, Yang Dongbao is undoubtedly better. Moreover, the long sword used by Yang Dongbao is not a common thing. Although it is not a peerless magic weapon, it is still A rare weapon.
It stands to reason that when the two of them were fighting, Yang Dongbao should have a slight advantage, and this was indeed the case. Yang Dongbao had the upper hand at the beginning of the fight. He whirled his sword, slashed and stabbed, forcing Ouyang Chuanfeng to be overwhelmed and exhausted.
Although the imperial court recruited the Beggar Gang, as the elite Yulin Army in the army, they always looked down on the rabble of the Beggar Gang. The same was true for Yang Dongbao. In his view, the Beggar Gang did many evil things and indulged in drinking and sex every day, making it difficult to calm down and train hard. Kung Fu, now fighting against each other, it turns out that Ouyang Chuanfeng is not good at learning and has many flaws.
Previously, Yang Dongbao was wary of Ouyang Chuanfeng. As time went by, he discovered that although Ouyang Chuanfeng was a mountain dweller, his martial arts skills were nothing more than that. This time, he used his palms to fight against his long sword. , which is really unwise.
Seeing Yang Dongbao becoming more courageous as he fought, while Ouyang Chuanfeng was retreating steadily, Changsheng frowned. He had already discovered that Ouyang Chuanfeng was deliberately showing weakness, looking for opportunities to severely injure Yang Dongbao.
On that day, Ouyang Chuanfeng also participated in the imperial martial arts competition. Not only immortality, Datou and others also saw Ouyang Chuanfeng performing martial arts. They saw Liu Tianlin and others staring at the two people on the stage intently, with excitement and expectation in their eyes. Datou He hurriedly warned, "Ouyang Chuanfeng is the right protector of the Beggar Clan. He can't possibly have this little ability."
Datou's voice was not low, and Liu Tianlin and others outside the court heard it. However, Yang Dongbao on the stage was trying his best to attack and did not hear Datou's kind reminder.
Long Haotian was a Taixuan cultivator, and his eyes and ears were clear. He heard what Da Tou said clearly, but he did not get angry. Instead, he smiled and gave Da Tou a thumbs up.
Datou glanced at Long Haotian, then tilted his head and looked away.
Changsheng stared at the two people on the stage. When fighting, Ouyang Chuanfeng mostly used his right hand, but he clearly remembered that this person was left-handed. Moreover, at this time, Ouyang Chuanfeng's left hand hidden in his sleeve had already gathered strength, and his five fingers were swollen and scarlet. Blood will give Yang Dongbao a fatal blow in a moment...
