The next morning, Lin Tailai woke up from a good dream and felt that he was in good spirits today. It was a day suitable for a literary competition.
Yesterday, Second Young Master Wang made an appointment at the first quarter of You hour, which is approximately equivalent to five to five thirty in the afternoon.
Lin Tailai was a little excited. Today will be a historic day and the first literary fight in his life.
Whether it's poetry or a couplet, feel free to come over! Of course, if it's calligraphy and painting, just admit defeat!
It's a little long before 5pm, but Lin Tailai has kept in mind Mr. Feng's warning and will never go out to cause trouble again today to avoid being in the limelight again.
As for the meeting with the second son of the old leader Wang Shizhen, it was purely a junior relationship and should not steal the spotlight from the old leader Wang.
The Second Young Master Wang must have known this well and did not dare to steal the limelight from his own father.
Besides, Alliance Leader Wang is going to date the three beauties of Jinling at the same time tonight, and he is also going to break up with Zhao Yongxian publicly. Who else can steal his limelight?
To be on the safe side, Professor Lin didn't even visit Bai Mei's family, and temporarily cut off contact with Wulong Teahouse.
In this way, Lin Tailai stayed quietly in the side yard of the school secretary's office until Shenshi.
Then he put on a clean new robe and prepared to go out for an appointment. The Zhang brothers habitually followed him out carrying a leather bag each.
Lin Tailai said casually: "Today's appointment is a gathering of scholars, so there is no need to bring double whips."
The Zhang brothers replied: "It's better to wear double whips to feel safer."
Lin Tailai added: "Recently, the security in Suzhou City is very good, so why carry weapons with you?
Do the scholars in the literary world always carry weapons when they go out? No matter what, I have a hidden iron-fingered tiger, which is usually enough."
The agreed place was at Taibai Building in Xujiang, and Lin Tailai arrived on time.
As the name suggests, this building is located on the bank of Xujiang River. Lin Tailai couldn't help complaining: "There are too many people who call it Taibai Building."
I just didn't know where to look for Mr. Wang. When I was thinking about it, I saw a few people walking out of Taibai Tower.
Lin Tailai looked closely and saw one of the young men, about 20 years old, with handsome eyebrows and phoenix eyes. He was only a little worse than himself.
It can be locked, the opponent is this person! He is worthy of being a descendant of a thousand-year-old family, he has a really good temperament.
Take a closer look at this person. He is wearing a garment with arrow sleeves and half of the front part is lifted up to facilitate the movement of his legs and feet.
Wait! Professor Lin, who was wearing a long-sleeved gown, suddenly felt something was wrong. What the hell was that guy opposite who was wearing a cool and handsome arrow-sleeved outfit?
The young man on the opposite side also looked at Lin Tailai and sighed: "As expected of Iron Fist and Golden Whip, the only one who dares to wear a long gown and fight in groups!"
Professor Lin asked in confusion: "Your Excellency, are you the second young master Wang who asked me to compete yesterday?"
The young man nodded and said: "Yes! I am Wang Shisu of Taicang, and I was the one who asked you to fight yesterday!"
A fight? Feeling that this scene was a bit different from what he had imagined, Professor Lin was a little speechless and told the truth: "I'm really confused."
Wang Shisu said arrogantly: "My Wang family in Taicang has always been upright. Before the competition, I, Wang Shisu, will ask you to be an understanding person!"
There are two reasons for the fight. The first is for Qi Shaobao’s marksmanship!
I was naturally dissatisfied when I heard that Qi Shaobao only regarded you as his successor and never paid any attention to me!
Secondly, it’s for Bai Ji, the number one winner in Suzhou’s Flower List! I was equally dissatisfied when I heard that Bai Ji, the number one winner, was going to act with you at the cultural conference!”
Professor Lin suddenly became irritable and shouted angrily: "I don't care what your reasons are! I just ask, what are you competing for today!"
Wang Shisu chuckled a few times and said: "Of course it's a martial arts competition! If you misunderstand Biwen, you can't blame others."
Lin Tailai: "."
Could it be that Wang Er was deliberately vague before, leading himself to mistakenly think that it was Bi Wen?
This Wang Er knows that he wants to develop into the literary world, so he plots against himself like this?
After it became clear, Professor Lin became even more irritable! Who would have thought that you, the son of a literary leader, would invite someone to compete, and it would actually be a martial arts competition!
The excitement and expectations from yesterday to today have all come to nothing!
Wang Shisu took the single sword from his entourage, held it with a gorgeous sword flower, made a chic posture, and said loudly to Lin Tailai: "Please show your whip!"
The Ming Dynasty had no control over weapons such as swords. In theory, they could be held and carried freely, but it was still very conspicuous to show the blades in the streets of downtown.
So after showing off his weapon, he immediately attracted the attention of passers-by.
It doesn't matter, this is the knight-errant style that Wang Shisu is proud of!
It's just that the bow and arrow he prefers are a bit taboo. After all, Suzhou City is not his hometown of Taicang, so he doesn't dare to carry it and use it casually.
"Please show your whip!" Wang Shisu repeated politely again.
But Professor Lin was very angry, feeling like a clown in his previous emotions, and said angrily: "I forgot to bring it!"
Sure enough, he didn't bring any weapons! Wang Shisu's plan succeeded, and he dared to teach him a lesson: "As a warrior, you forgot to bring weapons during the competition. You must be complacent and negligent! It's really a taboo!"
Professor Lin just wanted to hit someone, so he shouted impatiently: "Annoying! Let's start!"
Why do you need weapons to fight a showman like you alone? You look down on Konbu who can easily compare one to dozens, don't you?
Wang Shisu shook his head and continued to teach: "It is a big taboo to be impetuous before you start!"
Then he raised the blade, pointed it at Lin Tailai, looked at the crowd around him, and said loudly: "I, Wang Shisu of Taicang, act openly and aboveboard, and I make everything clear to others!
For the sake of Qi Shaobao's marksmanship, and for the sake of Huabang Bai's number one prize, I will duel with Lin Tailai today, and the winner or loser will be determined by his fate!"
It doesn't matter if you use a single sword to deal with empty fists. As long as you can win, it's best to control public opinion!
Then he will take advantage of the situation to pester Qi Shaobao, capture the white beauty, and reach the pinnacle of his life!
After the declaration, Wang Shisu immediately raised his knife and gradually approached Lin Tailai, but Professor Lin jumped up with a seemingly light step.
Wang Shisu was holding a weapon, but he would be a laughing stock if he didn't dare to attack.
So he found an opportunity, rushed forward, and slashed several times, but all failed.
Lin Tailai always seemed to be able to accurately distance himself. No matter how much Wang Shisu chased and slashed, he never seemed to be able to reach Lin Tailai, and the result was an empty slash.
After an unknown number of rounds, Wang Shisu, who was a little out of breath, suddenly saw a fist appearing in front of him, but he had no time to stop or dodge it.
Later, Second Young Master Wang felt severe pain, once or twice or three times, and then lost consciousness.
However, the Second Young Master Wang was not unconscious for long. Lin Tailai picked up the water tank and forcefully splashed the Second Young Master Wang awake.
Wang Shisu looked up blankly and found that the previous audience had not dispersed, but were talking around him at close range.
"Is this because of the fight caused by Huabang Bai, the number one scholar?"
"I heard that Bai Zhuangyuan has kept his perfect body, and some wealthy businessmen have offered hundreds of gold for it without selling it. They are waiting for the arrival of the leader of the Literary Forum, Mr. Wang."
"But for some unknown reason two days ago, Bai Zhuangyuan ran away from the residence of Mr. Wang."
"After listening to what the second young master preached just now, I now understand everything! It turns out that Bai Zhuangyuan escaped from the old leader Wang for Professor Lin."
"Doesn't that mean that Professor Lin has cheated on Old Alliance Leader Wang again? This is going to be a big deal!"
"That's why Second Young Master Wang is so angry, asking Professor Lin to duel for the sake of his father's face!"
"The Wang family is worthy of being a famous family. They are upright and aboveboard in everything they do to others. Even if they are cheated on, they will be cheated on in an upright and aboveboard manner!"
"Professor Lin is really outstanding in his style and level. After Wang Zhideng and Zhang Youyu, even the leader of the alliance Wang Lao has also been approved."
"An unprecedented big shot in the literary world has been greenlit three times in a row! But this time I am very pleased that he has finally won the green light out of Suzhou."
"Taicang Prefecture is also part of Suzhou Prefecture, okay?"
Second Young Master Wang felt that he should not wake up, he just wanted to pass out again.
I updated 11,500 words today, it’s up to you.
In addition, don’t say that my description of Wang Shisu is weird, you can Baidu what is the history of this person.
