Poor Family

  Chapter 80 The Controversy between Li and Zhang (4)

  When Zhang Qiao shot the tenth arrow, there was applause from all around, and each of the ten arrows hit the bull's-eye. Tang Huai praised in a low voice, "Good arrow technique!"

  Wang Gui felt a little dissatisfied, turned back to Tang Huai and said, "Your position is not firm, how can you praise the enemy?"

  Tang Huai curled his lips and said in a low voice, "He's not our enemy, besides, he shoots well in the first place! What's the point of boasting?"

  Wang Gui glared at him, "Lao Li's enemy is my Wang Gui's enemy. Fortunately, Lao Li still regards you as a good friend. You'd better clarify your position."

  Yue Fei quickly persuaded the two of them, "You two don't argue easily, Lao Li is going to shoot arrows!"

At this time, Li Yanqing also picked up the eight-dou bow that Zhang Qiao used just now, carried a pot of arrows on his back, and walked around with his fists high. Of course everyone supports the children of Xiaohe Township.

Li Yanqing returned to the archery line. At this time, the servant had already set up a new archery target. Li Yanqing drew his arrows to the string, and once again displayed the powerful power of his continuous arrows. One arrow was faster than the other, and the ten arrows shot accurately on the bullseye.

The applause from all around became louder and louder, and with the last arrow shot, almost all the guests cheered, even Wang Wanhao applauded enthusiastically, leaving Zhang Junbao in the cold. The taste of the face.

Jia Ding showed the two archery targets to everyone. Although both of them hit the target with ten arrows, Li Yanqing's arrows were obviously more orderly, distributed regularly, and shot in a circle, while Zhang Qiao's arrows were a bit messy. An insider can tell at a glance who is high and who is low.

  But out of Zhang Baojun's face, Wang Wanhao and Tang Lian could only announce that the archery was a draw.

  But Zhang Qiao couldn’t accept a draw. He was already seventeen years old, and he was still the third place in the Xiangzhou Wujie Trial, while the other party was just a twelve-year-old country boy. If he declared a tie, he would lose.

  He immediately shouted to everyone: "I just made an appointment with Li Shaolang. If the arrows are tied, then we will continue to compete with weapons until the winner is determined."

   There was a sudden silence all around, and everyone looked at each other in blank dismay. Isn't it obvious that the big bully the small?

  Li Wenyou asked loudly: "Qing'er, do you accept?"

  Li Yanqing smiled and said: "Patriarch, I have no problem!"

   "But I'm a little worried!"

  Li Wenyou glanced at Zhang Junbao, "I'm afraid that someone won't accept the loss!"

  Zhang Junbao was furious immediately, "You don't come to provoke the generals, when will our Zhang family lose and refuse to admit it?"

  Li Wenyou said meaningfully: "That would be the best!"

  On the court, Li Yanqing stepped forward and said to Zhang Qiao, "How do you compare?"

  Zhang Qiao shook his head, "I compete with you in riding and shooting, and I think others will call me bullying you. Since you are young, let you decide."

  Wang Gui shouted: "Old Li, compete with him!"

  This is exactly what Li Yanqing meant. He was most confident in hitting stones, but he was also worried that the villagers would not recognize stone hitting as a martial art, so he could only settle for the next best thing and engage in a sword competition.

  He smiled lightly: "I will compete with you."

   "Okay! You brought this up."

  When everyone heard that the two were going to compete with swords, they were more interested, and they didn't care about drinking and eating, and gathered around to discuss.

  Although everyone hoped that Li Yanqing would win, after all, the opponent was the third place in the martial arts test. How could a country boy be the opponent of the Jie test Juren.

  Zhang Junbao was extremely proud. In front of Wang Wanhao and Tang Lian, he said hypocritically to Li Wenyou: "I have told my nephew to be merciful and not to hurt brother Qing. At most, I will make a little embarrassment, and there is nothing I can do about it."

  Li Wenyou remained silent with a livid face.

  Li Yanqing's thick-ridged short sword is always carried with him. He got it by accident when he was eating wine at Li Dongdong's house.

Zhang Qiao's sword is a fifteen-pound epee without a front. It is not so much a sword as a whip. He is a strong warrior and is good at using maces and whips. It is the whip method.

The two stood at a distance of three feet. The referee was Master Liu, newly hired by Wang Gui's family. But what surprised him a little was that Brother Li actually used an army sword, which was extremely rare.

  Wang Wanhao shouted loudly: "Tap as far as you can, don't hurt anyone!"

  Zhang Qiao squinted at Li Yanqing's sword. He was confident that his sword was at least twice as heavy as the opponent's. He could knock the opponent's weapon away with just one blow. If the opponent lost his weapon, he would have won.

   Li Wenyou was really nervous, and his palms were sweating. This strategy was proposed by Li Yanqing. He used the method of gambling to force Zhang Junbao to give up the fleet. Although Li Wenyou didn't agree very much, he didn't want Li Yanqing to take risks.

  But apart from this method, he had no other way out, so he had to be a dead horse as a living horse doctor. Unexpectedly, Li Yanqing even tied the archery with the opponent, which gave Li Wenyou a glimmer of hope again.

   Li Wenyou secretly prayed for God's blessing, and asked the great ancestor to bless Li Yanqing to defeat the opponent, so that their food can be saved.

  Master Liu shouted, "Start!"

Zhang Qiao pulled out a sword flower, shouted loudly, and charged forward, Li Yanqing's figure was faster, flashed by, the two sides had already passed a move, Zhang Qiao slashed the air with his sword, and the sword fell heavily on the ground, Li Yanqing No one saw clearly how he made the move, but unexpectedly he put the dagger on his shoulder and looked at Zhang Qiao with a smile.

  Wang Gui jumped up suddenly, pointed at Zhang Qiao and shouted: "He lost!"

  Everyone was baffled and couldn't see anything clearly. Where did Zhang Qiao lose? Zhang Qiao didn't move, his face was flushed, suddenly, his belt fell off, and his robe opened, revealing the white underwear inside.

  Everyone burst into laughter. It turned out that Brother Li cut off the opponent's belt with a sword. Isn't that a win? Everyone clapped and shouted together.

  Li Wenyou calmed down now, he looked back at Zhang Junbao, and said lightly: "You lost!"

   Tang Lian smiled slightly at the side and said, "Wu Jie Juren has indeed shown mercy."

  Zhang Junbao was slapped in the face in public, his face was extremely ugly with embarrassment and embarrassment, he walked quickly to Zhang Qiao, and cursed in a low voice: "Useless thing!"

  Zhang Qiao was so ashamed that he held his sword in one hand and his robe in the other, not even picking up his belt. He lowered his head and walked away quickly. He didn't want to stay here any longer.

Only Martial Master Liu changed his face in shock. He is an expert, and he is the only one who knows the skill of Li Yanqing's sword. He can only describe it as 'fast, accurate, and ruthless'. How old is this young man, how can he be so powerful in swordsmanship?

  Wang Gui and Yue Fei rushed over cheering, hugged Li Yanqing tightly to celebrate the victory together, but Tang Huai was a little embarrassed, stepped forward and smiled at Li Yanqing: "Good swordsmanship!"

  After the competition was over, everyone went to the front to have a meal. Li Wanhao patted Zhang Junbao on the shoulder and said apologetically, "Old Zhang, I'm sorry this time. Next time I use the boat, I will definitely give it to you first."

  Zhang Junbao was really helpless, so he had to give Li Wenyou a hard look, and left with hatred. He had nothing to say about his loss today, so he could only find a way to clean up the Li family in the future.

  Wang Wanhao looked at his back and shook his head. This man was narrow-minded and wanted to stab the Li family in the back, but ended up humiliating himself. Why bother?

  Wang Wanhao walked up to Li Wenyou and cupped his hands to congratulate him: "Congratulations, brother Li, you are courageous and resourceful, and you won very well!"

  Li Wenyou's face was radiant, and his small eyes were shining brightly. He squinted his eyes and said to Wang Wanhao: "Now I only care about when will you give me the boat at the earliest?"

  Wang Wanhao laughed, "Brother Li, don't worry! Since I agreed, how can I go back on it!"

   "Rescuing soldiers is like putting out fire, how can I not be in a hurry?"

  Wang Wanhao thought for a while and said, "The fleet is on the Yongji Canal. You can borrow it at any time, but I want to make it clear that I won't let you pay the price. You have to add 50% to the usual ship price."

   "No problem, I will give you the highest boat price, I will rush to Anyang County now, I will not drink the wine, and I will apologize to you later."

  Wang Wanhao saw that he was impatient, so he ordered the steward to pack up the boat and head north, and Li Wenyou walked up to Li Yanqing again. This child was worthy of being possessed by the soul of the great ancestor, and he turned them from a desperate situation.

  He pressed Li Yanqing's shoulder heavily, and said to him very moved: "Qing'er, this time I saw in you what is called bloodline honor and disgrace, we are in the same boat, and our Li family will definitely prosper with people like you."

Li Yanqing nodded silently, feeling an inexplicable touch in his heart. As he got more and more integrated into this era, he also gradually realized the inseparable blood relationship between people of that race, and realized the kind of steadfastness for the benefit of the family. The courage to fight.

   "I'll go north to Anyang with the patriarch! I'm still a little worried."

Li Wenyou grinned and said: "No need, this is an army ship, let him have a hundred courage to dare not mess around, you go to the county school to study hard, and try to get admitted to Juren as soon as possible, that's all right! There is not much reason Said, time is running out, I have to go first."

Li Yanqing sent the patriarch out of the gate, Li Wenyou walked a few steps, stopped again, as if thinking of something, he patted his forehead and turned back with a smile: "See, I've been confused for the past two days, we are the first in the Qing'er County Examination , I, the patriarch, didn't give rewards, I'm incompetent!"

   "What does the patriarch plan to reward me?" Li Yanqing scratched his head and asked expectantly.

   "I'll reward you with the wild goose!"

   "What!" Li Yanqing almost lost his foot, and shouted.

  Li Wenyou was in such a happy mood, he couldn't help laughing, "I'm just kidding you, the prize I gave you has already been sent to your home, you can see it when you go back, I believe you will not be disappointed."

   After finishing speaking, Li Wenyou got into the carriage and waved to Li Yanqing. The coachman whipped the horse severely, and the carriage started quickly and drove towards the Yongjiqu Wharf.

   Lao Gao continues to ask for votes from fellow book lovers! I hope you will support me
