Chapter 21: The Battle of Chang'an Avenue I
Located in the middle of Chang'an Avenue in Baishui City, in front of the door of the "Spring Garden", lined up with luxury carriages, from the carriage down a rich and noble person, standing in front of the "Spring Garden" small guy stunned, they feel that at this moment it seems to be concentrated all the high-ranking officials and nobles of Baishui City, there are businessmen and rich people, local gentlemen, all as if they have made an appointment to come batch after batch.
After entering several groups of rich people, the two little guys looked at each other and smiled bitterly, why are there so many rich people here tonight, they don't know, the people who came one after another began to decrease, almost no carriage came again, and there was no one after about half an hour, the two little guys breathed a long sigh, every time a group of rich people came, they had to bow their heads, showing their insincere smiles on their faces, and tonight their waists were about to be bent and broken, and their faces were stiff with smiles. I can finally breathe a sigh of relief.
The two little guys standing at the gate of the "Spring Garden" began to stretch their waists, began to move their limbs, and suddenly a comfortable feeling spread. At this time, two more carriages came slowly, both wrapped in black cloth, which looked particularly mysterious. Seeing this, the nerves that had just been put down by the two little servants retracted again, and looked at the slowly approaching carriage, which was followed by two horses, one on which was a middle-aged scribe and one of a man with a burly shape.
The carriage stopped side by side in front of the door, only to see a young man get down from the first carriage, the son is about seventeen years old, dressed in a purple brocade robe, draped in a white fur robe, the boy eyebrows emitted a sharp breath, the young man is sturdy, the air is magnificent, the exquisite face is embedded with a pair of eyes like eagle eyes, a temperament that dominates the world is born spontaneously, and the high nose bridge highlights the unique characteristics of the Khitan people.
"Khitan," the two little guys said secretly in their hearts, although they had seen a lot of Khitans, but they had never seen such a young Khitan who exuded the wealth and nobility of a king. Based on their years of professional experience, it is determined that this son's identity must be extraordinary, and he is by no means an ordinary rich person.
Another carriage came down from the side of a middle-aged man, the man was about forty years old, slightly chubby, the middle-aged man's whole body exuded a kind of official authority that had been accumulated for a long time, the middle-aged man was wearing a white fur coat, although he was dressed in civilian clothes, but it could still be seen that he still maintained the unique image of an official.
The young man in brocade and the middle-aged man walked side by side towards the gate of the "Garden of Spring", followed by the middle-aged scribe and the stout man who came down from the horse. The two little guys hurriedly greeted them.
With a "click", Ling Tianyun's five fingers unconsciously pinched hard, but he crushed the teacup in his hand, and Ling Tianyun showed an apologetic smile to Guo Jian. Guo Jian shook his head and said: "A temporary failure doesn't mean anything, you are of the same age, and although the amount of that exchange was that you lost a game, it also aroused your unprecedented fighting spirit, isn't it, you will have to fight sooner or later in the future, so that you can also know the gap between you and him in advance." ”
Ling Tianyun couldn't help but sigh with emotion in his heart, there was still a big gap between himself and Na Yelu Zongheng, not only in terms of martial arts cultivation, but also in terms of personal wit, he was a few points weaker than Yelu Zongheng.
"You are all young talents, don't be presumptuous" Guo Jian comforted Ling Tianyun and said, "If you knew who the master of Yelu Zongheng was, I guess you wouldn't be so entangled,"
Ling Tianyun was stunned for a moment, he didn't know that Yelu Zongheng also had a master, since the first confrontation with Yelu Zongheng, Ling Tianyun had also asked Ling Duozhi about him, only to know that Yelu Zongheng was actually the third son of the Khitan Emperor, the third prince of the Khitan who was named the King of Qin. Later, he collected some information about Yelu Zongheng, and the world's evaluation of Yelu Zongheng was: "Tianzhong's assets, arrogant and domineering". But Ling Tianyun felt that these eight words were far from enough to evaluate Yelu Zongheng. It is said that when the Khitan Emperor crowned Nayelu Zongheng, Nayelu Zongheng took the initiative to ask him to be crowned king with the title of "King of Qin", and his ambition can be seen to be extraordinary.
Guo Jian saw Ling Tianyun show a stunned expression, and said: "Actually, this Yelu Zongheng is not only one master, one of them who taught him martial arts is the Khitan master Wanyan Invincible, and he is the only disciple under the Wanyan Invincible seat, although Yelu Zongheng is martial arts from Wanyan Invincible, and he has other masters in martial arts, but they are all unknown people, there are various sects, it can be said that Yelu Zongheng is a collection of hundreds of schools of thought in one, it can be seen that his talent in martial arts, that Yelu Zongheng also worshiped Yanzhou Xiao Lao Master as a teacher, Learn my Central Plains culture, etiquette, art of war, and will be able to learn and use it in a while, such a talented talent, fortunately not made the prince by the Khitan Emperor, otherwise my Central Plains will be in danger. ”
Ling Tianyun suddenly realized, no wonder that when he met Yelu Zongheng in the competition, he made a spear, but did not use other tricks, Ling Tianyun felt that the gap between himself and Yelu Zongheng was even bigger, but he was only a peep at him, and he didn't see his true strength clearly at all. An invisible pressure, Na Yelu was like a mountain in front of Ling Tianyun, making Ling Tianyun once again ignite a stronger fighting spirit.
Faintly, Ling Tianyun felt that there would inevitably be another confrontation with Yelu Zongheng, nothing to do with the Northern Han Kingdom and the Khitan Kingdom, nothing to do with the Han people and the Khitan people, he felt that there would definitely be a fateful battle between him and Yelu Zongheng, for this sudden thought, Ling Tianyun felt a little ridiculous and ridiculous. Although he didn't believe in any fate, he couldn't say why this ridiculous idea flickered in his mind, could it be that in the dark, there was really the sky arranging all this.
Ling Tianyun felt a stunned sigh in his heart, Guo Jian patted him on the shoulder and said, "You don't have to worry too much, there will be a big event in Baishui City tonight, are you interested in going and seeing." ”
"Big deal, what's big deal?" Ling Tianyun looked at him suspiciously, "Could it be related to what happened this afternoon?" ”
"Of course, it may explain everything that happened today, but it doesn't have to." Guo Jian showed an unfathomable smile.
"Brother Guo, I'm really getting more and more interested in your identity, can you reveal something." Ling Tianyun suddenly changed the topic, he really wanted to know Guo Jian's true identity, he actually knew so many secrets about the Khitans. Of course, what Ling Tianyun was certain of was that Guo Jian had no ill will towards him.
"Hehe, it's inconvenient to reveal my identity for the time being, but when the time comes, you'll naturally know. Now let's go out and meet for a while, the legendary third prince of Khitan, King Yelu of Qin. ”
Ling Tianyun's eyes condensed slightly, he didn't expect Yelu Zongheng to come to this Baishui Pass, no wonder he found Hai Dongqing hovering in the sky above Baishui City when he left the General's Mansion in the afternoon.
"What is he doing in this White Water City, does my father know about these things, should I go back to my father first." Ling Tianyun asked Guo Jian about these doubts.
"Needless to say, Ling Zun knows a lot of things. We said on the road. ”
Guo Jian and Ling Yun walked out of the room one after another, and along the way, Ling Tianyun asked about the identities of the four black-clothed people, and learned from Guo Jian's mouth that the identities of the four black-clothed people were not simple, they were the four commanders of the Guiyi Army in Zhongshuo Prefecture in the sixteen states of Yanyun. After the sixteen states of Yanyun were sold to the Khitan by Shi Jingjiao for self-protection, there were many people with lofty ideals who organized some anti-contract rebels, among which the Guiyi Army was one of the anti-Chee teams, and it was the largest among the many rebel armies, and the leader of the Guiyi Army in Shuozhou was surnamed Guo Mingcunyi.
The woman in black is nicknamed "Black Lady", her name Guo Jian said that she doesn't know, her weapon is the use of a soft long whip, the black lady is the most mysterious one among the four commanders of the Guiyi Army, the long whip dances like a supernatural and ghostly, so that people can't figure out its traces, such as a long rope in the underworld, if you are not careful, you will be strangled by the long whip and lose your life. In the Guiyi Army, there are few traces of her, unless there are some major meetings or major actions, she can be seen.
The other three, the older one is named Mo Xiaoshan, this person does not have any weapons, his double fists are his weapons, this person's two fists can break through the mountains, shake the heavens and the earth, a pair of iron fists do not know how many Khitan soldiers who surrounded and suppressed them, this person is the most profound commander among the four people.
The other two were two brothers, no wonder Ling Tianyun and the two of them felt that there were some similarities in their appearance. One of them made the stick for the elder brother named He Tiejiang, and the one who made the double knife was the younger brother He Tiechuan. The two brothers died when they were young, and when they were teenagers, Shi Jingjiao dedicated the sixteen states of Yanyun to the Khitan, and the Khitan in order to consolidate its dominance, carried out a big cleanup of the Han people in the sixteen states of Yanyun, and the families of the two brothers were also in this misfortune, and their parents and relatives were killed by the Khitans. Only the two brothers escaped, wandered for some time, and were taken in by an old monk who taught them some martial arts. If you want to say that the Khitans hate the most are these two brothers.
"Where are we going?" After Ling Tianyun saw Guo Jian come out of the dark bungalow area, he walked straight to Chang'an Street, the bustling area of White Water City. "Spring is full of gardens," Guo Jian replied calmly while hurrying.
"Ah", Ling Tianyun exclaimed in surprise and stopped, "Spring is full of gardens" he has heard of, it is the only brothel in Baishui City, he has never been to that place, it is said that the "spring garden" is full of beautiful women like clouds, and all of them are gentle like water, piano, chess, books, and paintings are all fine. For such a thing between men and women, Ling Tianyun is really a junior brother, he has always been under the influence of his father Ling Duozhi, and has been growing up in the military camp, he really doesn't know about the ups and downs outside, as soon as he heard that he was going to a brothel, Ling Tianyun couldn't help but be stunned.
Guo Jian also stopped, looked at him with strange eyes and said, "What's wrong with going to the brothel, we are here to see the excitement, what is the fuss, is there no such thing as our eldest son Ling." ”
When Ling Tianyun heard this, he said unconvinced: "Go and go, whoever is afraid of whom, but don't tell your father if it's okay." The latter sentence obviously does not have much confidence.
"Don't worry, even if Ling Zun knows, it'll be fine." After Guo Jian finished speaking, he turned around and walked forward, and Ling Tianyun had no choice but to follow behind Guo Jian.
