At noon, Zhang Xuan left the courtyard and slowly came to the wine shop next door, which was called Ping An Wine Shop, and the Ping An Inn next door was opened by a proprietor.

The liquor store is about three floors, and compared to the inn's somewhat deserted business, the business here is really good, it was noon, and the lobby on the third floor of the liquor store was basically full of guests, and the guests were chatting, but none of them talked about the assassin last night, as if it was just a trivial matter.

Zhang Xuan was led by the bartender to a single seat by the window on the second floor to sit down, because it is a corner, the seat can only sit one person, but the view is very wide, not only can you see the entire lobby, but also the situation on the street outside the window can be seen clearly.

"Guest officer, is this seat okay?" The bartender was smiling and respectful.

"It's okay, just here!"

Jang Hyun sat down and asked, "It seems that something happened last night?" ”

The bartender looked at both sides and said in a low voice: "The government has warned us about this matter, and no one is allowed to mention it, otherwise we will be arrested and put in prison, and the son must not ask again." ”

Zhang Xuan smiled, "Okay then! What are your best dishes here? ”

The bartender was in good spirits, and said as a few treasures: "The white carp of the Sanggan River is one of the three major carps in the world, and the guest officer can't miss it.

"Alright, alright, let's have one! What else? ”

"And charcoal-grilled lamb"

"Lamb don't want it!"

Zhang Xuan was really tired of eating mutton in the grassland, and when he heard the mutton, he had a headache, so he said to the bartender: "Three more dishes, two meat and one vegetable, chicken and duck, etc., you can do it yourself, add two plates of meatloaf, the shallot stuffing is good, and then a pot of wine, add ice cubes!" ”

"Great! The guest officer sat down for a while, and he came immediately. ”

The bartender walked quickly, Zhang Xuan looked at the lobby, all seats in the lobby were surrounded by low screens, the privacy was not bad, three or five friends sat around the table, talking and laughing while drinking, the atmosphere was very harmonious,

At this time, Jang Hyun noticed a seat on his diagonal side, because the screen opened to face him, and he could see the situation inside very clearly, there were three people sitting in total, two of them facing each other, their complexions were black and white.

The dark-skinned man seems to be a Turkic man, with a tiger's back and a bear's waist, eyes like copper bells, a bloody mouth, and a fierce appearance.

The fairer-skinned man was a scribe, of medium stature, with a long beard under his chin, about forty years old, and quite elegant, but he wore a long knife at his waist, and seemed to have a little martial arts.

The other person turned his back to him, and he couldn't see his appearance, but he was a very young man, wearing a golden crown, fair skin, broad shoulders and a thin waist, his figure was extremely straight, and his height was not inferior to himself, he had a straight waist, wearing a moon-white brocade robe, and a purple jade belt around his waist, which could see that this young man was the master of the two.

"This expedition to Goguryeo, the number of troops sent to our Youzhou Mansion is 30,000, although my father wants to personally lead the troops, but the Son of Heaven does not allow it, let my father hand over the army to Yuwen Shu and Laihu'er, isn't this a disguised weakening of my father's military power?" The young man said in a very dissatisfied tone.

The middle-aged scribe sighed, "Not only our Youzhou, but I heard that Li Yuan in Taiyuan and Yang Yichen in Pengcheng County are the same, more than half of the army is handed over to the generals of the court, but they are not allowed to lead the troops, Guanzhong is even more outrageous, ninety percent of the army must be transferred, and all the generals from the Guanlong nobility are all purged." ”

The middle-aged scribe lowered his voice again and said: "Now there is a saying that because Yang Xuangan's rebellion made the Son of Heaven very vigilant, he used the excuse of conquering Goguryeo again to deprive the military power of various places. ”

Although the other party's voice was very small, Zhang Xuan still heard it clearly, and he was secretly surprised in his heart, if this was the case, the history he had read was too shallow.

At this time, I heard the Turkic man's urn and said angrily: "No wonder there are so many deserters, almost half of them, Lao Zhang, do you mean that someone here has done tricks?" ”

The middle-aged scribe smiled and said, "You're wrong, deserters are people!" Everyone has gone home, who will go back to the military palace, don't you think this is actually disbanding these armies? On the surface, he was caught fiercely, but in fact it was just a show, and hundreds of thousands of deserters only caught a few hundred people, is it possible?

If I'm not mistaken, this Eastern Expedition to Goguryeo will not be fought long at all, and in the end it must be a peace between the two sides! ”

The young man stroked his palms and laughed, "It's still Gongjin who has insight!" ”

At this time, the bartender gave Jang Hyun wine and food, and Jang Hyun continued to listen to their conversation while drinking and eating.

"Changshi, don't say these head-winding words, Childe, if you teach me that trick again, I won't be able to learn it, how can I do five plums with one shot?"

"This depends on understanding, you watch!"

The young man picked up the chopsticks, shook his hand, and stabbed out with a shot, and five chopstick tips appeared, Zhang Xuan could see it clearly, he was stunned for a moment, this ..... Isn't this a five-in-a-row? One halberd and five thorns!

"The key to this move is wrist strength, my marksmanship is to use three forces to exert force, one strand of three guns, up to nine spear heads, you must be fast, you first draw out two forces to try it."

Jang Hyun listened to it with a fascination, and a question that had been bothering him these days was inadvertently answered.

He found that the power in his body could be divided into several strands, and even manipulated them separately, like a puppet's rope, but he couldn't figure out what it meant to divide the power into several strands?

But today's young man's words made him wake up like a dream, and he can practice many wonderful moves by manipulating different forces, such as the five rings must be controlled by two or three forces separately to be used.

Thinking about it, then the first 'assassination', which combines fifteen moves into one move, is the key to the cooperation of several forces to be possible, and it must be so.

Zhang Xuan's eyes widened, carefully watching every detail of the young man's wrist changes, but fortunately, this Turkic man was slow to comprehend, so Zhang Xuan watched it three times in a row.

He also picked up a chopstick, and with a flick of his wrist, he made three forces tremble at the same time at an extremely rapid speed, and a miracle happened, his chopsticks actually shook out six chopstick tips, one more than the young man.

Zhang Xuan was extremely shocked, he never dreamed that the power in his body would have such a wonderful effect, he stabbed out three chopsticks in a row, and each time he succeeded, he knew that he had mastered this magical trick invisibly.

The young boy knew that the Turkic Han was not perceptive enough, and he had not practiced the art of cohesion, so it was impossible for him to learn his own one-shot Wumei, so he didn't hide his selfishness, as a game, but he never expected that someone next to him would steal his family marksmanship.

At this time, the middle-aged scribe suddenly saw Zhang Xuan, his eyes were very surprised, he hurriedly gave the young man a look, and nodded to Zhang Xuan's side, and when the young man turned around, he happened to see Zhang Xuan stabbing out six spear heads with chopsticks, which was the martial art he had just performed.

The young man was furious and slapped the table hard, 'Bang! With a loud bang, the table was smashed by him, and everyone in the lobby stood up and looked this way, wondering what was going on?

Zhang Xuan also woke up from the practice, he saw the young man rushing out of the seat with his fists clenched, and secretly screamed in his heart that something was wrong, he also immediately stood up and took a step back.

It was only at this time that he saw the appearance of the young man, only to see that he was about seventeen or eighteen years old, his face was like a crown of jade, his nose was straight and his mouth was square, and under the two sword eyebrows, a pair of deep eyes were blazing, plus he had fair skin, he looked very handsome, and his body was full of explosive power, but he was too angry, and the muscles on his face were a little deformed.

Zhang Xuan's face was a little embarrassed, in fact, he knew in his heart that he was definitely guilty of stealing other people's martial arts, although he only learned one move, but it was also extremely rude.

He hurriedly clasped his fists and saluted, and said apologetically: "I was just curious just now, it was really an unintentional move, please forgive me!" ”

The young man was trembling with anger, if it weren't for the middle-aged scribe next to him to stop him, he would rush up and throw this madman downstairs, his eyes were full of anger, he stared at Zhang Xuan and gritted his teeth and said, "You bastard! Any idea what you're stealing? ”

Zhang Xuan smiled faintly, "It's just a trick with chopsticks, what does Childe think I learned?" ”

The young man couldn't hold back any longer, and shouted: "You stole my five-hook flying spear!" ”

He pulled out his sword and stabbed it at Jang Hyun's chest, "Maniac, suffer death!" ”

Zhang Xuan saw that this sword was fast and ruthless, and it was clearly for his own life, he was secretly angry in his heart, but it was just a move, and he wanted to kill himself, and this young man was too ruthless.

Zhang Xuan quickly took out the knife, 'Dang! With a sword, the young man's sword flew out, the young man was a little light, he didn't expect Zhang Xuan's strength to be so strong, the sword almost came out of his hand, and he couldn't stop under his feet, and took two steps back in a row.

The young man's face couldn't hold back, his face sank like water, and his eyes burst with murderous intent, but he didn't rush up recklessly, but squinted his eyes to find the other party's loopholes, and he knew in his heart that he had met a master.

At this time, Zhang Xuan said coldly: "If I guessed correctly, you should be the son of the head of Youzhou Luo, who draws his sword and kills people at every turn, you forget that Youzhou is now at the feet of the Son of Heaven!" ”

Zhang Xuan's words were very serious, and the middle-aged scribe next to him changed his face greatly, stepped forward to stop the young man, and arched his hand: "May I ask who Your Excellency is?" ”

Zhang Xuan still smiled indifferently, "It doesn't matter who I am, if I were you, I wouldn't talk about the Son of Heaven in public, Zhang Changshi, right?" ”

The middle-aged scribe's face turned pale, his hands trembled involuntarily, although the young man was still angry in his heart, he also knew that the matter was getting bigger, he put away his sword, held back his anger and stepped forward to salute Zhang Xuan.

"I was rude just now, I shouldn't have taken too heavy a shot, please forgive me, but your Excellency is stealing the art first, and you know the rights and wrongs better than me in your heart, so why bother to catch us a few words of small talk and make a fuss?"

Zhang Xuan looked at him and smiled slightly: "Are you Luo Cheng?" ”……
