In the afternoon, Lin Xuan brought Xue Rengui to the school grounds.
"The name of the person next to me is Xue Li, also named Rengui. From today on, your training will be arranged by him. His words are mine. Anyone who violates them will be severely punished!" Lin Xuan said with a loudspeaker.
Who is Xue Rengui?
Not to mention those soldiers, even Cheng Chumo and the other three had never heard of them.
"I know you are not convinced. Cheng Chumo and you three can come together and compete with Xue Rengui. If you win, this matter will be over!"
The military respected the strong, and he believed that Xue Rengui's martial arts skills were enough to convince them.
The martial arts skills of Cheng Chumo and the others are good, but compared with Xue Rengui, they are still much inferior. Even if all three of them are good, they will not be Xue Rengui's opponent!
"General, you don't need three people, I can do it alone!" Cheng Chumo said loudly.
Cheng Chumo and the others were young and vigorous, and Xue Rengui looked about the same age as them, so how could they have the nerve to go together with the three of them.
"Oh? Then you can fight with Rengui first and then talk about it." Lin Xuan said with a half-smile.
"Sir, didn't you tell me to train military formations before? I don't know your training methods." Xue Rengui asked in a low voice.
"No, I can call you. This is not my ambition and I will not stay in the army forever." Lin Xuan said.
He hasn't seen the colorful world outside, so how can he waste his time in the army?
Xue Rengui said: "But..."
"Stop it, let me ask you if you are confident in taking down the three of them?" Lin Xuan interrupted him directly.
"I have confidence!" Xue Rengui was very grateful for Lin Xuan's trust.
"Cheng Chumo, come up." Lin Xuan walked down from the martial arts stage, leaving the place for them to compete.
Cheng Chumo chose a long gun on the weapons rack and walked up.
The reason why he did not choose a horse-mounted horse was that the horse-mounted horse was too long and was not suitable for foot combat.
Cheng Yaojin used Ma Shu when he competed with Lin Xuan because he looked down on Lin Xuan.
If he had chosen another weapon at that time, Lin Xuan would really have been Cheng Yaojin's opponent.
Cheng Chumo knew Lin Xuan well. It must be very difficult for Xue Rengui to be so respected by him. He did not dare to look down on Xue Rengui.
When Xue Rengui saw Cheng Chumo on stage, he did not use the family halberd, but also chose a long spear on the weapons rack.
The competition between him and Cheng Chumo was to convince the crowd. If he used the advantages of weapons, he would be defeated even if he won.
Cheng Chumo didn't know that Xue Rengui used a halberd. When he saw Xue Rengui choosing a weapon, he said, "Are you ready? I'm going to take action!"
"I'm ready!" Xue Rengui said with a gun in one hand and a gun flower on his arm.
Cheng Chumo has also used a spear. Although he is not as skilled as Ma Shu, he is not unfamiliar with it either.
He stepped forward and rushed towards Xue Rengui quickly, raising his spear and stabbing Xue Rengui.
Xue Rengui remained calm. When the spear came closer, he used it as a halberd and deflected the spear.
The spears collided, and Cheng Chumo felt his wrists shake, and he almost lost his grip on the spear.
Cheng Chumo looked at Xue Rengui in horror. He had felt this feeling before when he competed with his father.
He braced himself, turned his spear, and slashed towards Xue Rengui's neck.
Xue Rengui leaned back to avoid Cheng Chumo's attack, and then took the initiative to launch an attack.
Cheng Chumo quickly fired back to parry. Then Cheng Chumo had no ability to fight back and could only defend passively.
After more than ten rounds, Cheng Chumo blocked Xue Rengui's attack again, then quickly retreated and shouted: "Stop, stop, stop fighting, I admit defeat."
Xue Rengui put away his gun, clasped his fists and said, "I give in!"
"If you lose, you lose. I didn't give in." Cheng Chumo said with a depressed look.
He can feel that Xue Rengui has been letting him go. If he wants to continue to persist for dozens of rounds, it will not be a problem.
Cheng Chumo was also a proud man with his own arrogance, so he immediately chose to admit defeat.
Lin Xuan also saw that Xue Rengui was holding back. He was sure that Xue Rengui was merciful when he competed with Liu Da.
Liu Da's martial arts skills are not even comparable to those of Cheng Chumo. How could he hold on to ten moves under Xue Rengui?
He was very satisfied with Xue Rengui, he was humble and polite and not aggressive.
It is not without reason that he can become a famous general and be passed down through the ages.
"I just said that you alone are no match for him. The three of you come together and compete again." Lin Xuan said with a smile.
When Yuchi Baolin heard this, he was a little eager to try, but Qin Huaidao was very calm and said: "General, there is no need to compete. Cheng Chumo can't hold on for long. The three of us go together. It's just to hold on for a while longer. There is no chance of winning."
Not that he had such good eyesight to tell that Xue Rengui was holding back.
It's that the three of them have never teamed up to fight an enemy before, and have no experience in cooperating at all.
Since you know you can't win, why bother competing?
Lin Xuan understood Qin Huaidao's thoughts after just a moment's thought.
I have a lot of respect for Qin Huaidao in my heart. It is one thing to be able to understand it, but it is commendable to be willing to give up.
In comparison, Cheng Chumo and Yuchi Baolin are suitable to be fierce generals who charge into battle, while Qin Huaidao is suitable to be a commander.
Lin Xuan looked at the soldiers below and said: "If any of you think you can beat Xue Rengui, you can come up and give it a try!"
After waiting for a while, Lin Xuan saw no one coming up and said to Xue Rengui: "Rengui, come and train the military formation."
…
"Sign in!"
"Ding~, signed in successfully, reward: a pack of chili seeds."
Chili seeds?
Lin Xuan did not expect that the reward for signing in on the first day of February would be pepper seeds.
He is a person who loves spicy food, but there are no chili peppers in Datang.
If you want to eat spicy food, you can only rely on pepper, ginger and dogwood.
Although it has a spicy taste, he doesn't like it very much.
After so long, he almost forgot the taste of chili.
What surprises Lin Xuan the most is that he can reward seeds.
This means that he has the opportunity to obtain high-yielding grains such as potatoes, corn, and sweet potatoes.
Thinking of the taste of peppers, Lin Xuan couldn't wait to grow them as soon as possible.
Generally, peppers are grown at the end of February or the beginning of March. (This refers to the lunar calendar, there was no solar calendar in ancient times.)
Although it is only the beginning of February and the weather is still a little cold, you can plant it in a flower pot and put it indoors. When the weather is nice, just move it out to bask in the sun.
Lin Xuan went to the school grounds to find Xue Rengui and said, "Rengui, I need to go back for something urgent. It's up to you here in the military camp. I've taught you all the training methods. You just need to train with them."
"Yes!" Xue Rengui responded.
Lin Xuan made arrangements for the military camp and returned to the Lin family with his soldiers.
"Xuan'er, why did you come back just a few days ago?" Lin Dongyang asked a little strangely.
When Lin Xuan left last time, he said that he would not be back in a short time.
"Dad, I have something to do. How many days will I come back? Where is my mother?" Lin Xuan asked.
"Your mother said that Mrs. Xue had no acquaintances in Chang'an. She was afraid that she would be lonely, so she found a few people to play mahjong with Mrs. Xue." Lin Dongyang said.
Play mahjong?
Lin Xuan was stunned and said: "That's also a good thing. My mother stays at home every day. It's okay to go out and play. But you have to talk to my mother and be careful."
"You don't have to worry about it. They only have two pennies. If you have anything to do, go and get busy. I'll go to the new house to have a look." Lin Dongyang said.
Lin Xuan then remembered the new house and asked, "Dad, I haven't visited the new house since it started. How is the construction going?"
"Very good. The guy you found named Xu Guangfu is very capable and is laying the foundation now!" Lin Dongyang said.
"Dad, can I live in it before the end of the year?" Lin Xuan asked.
Lin Dongyang shook his head: "I'm afraid it won't work this year. The house is too big and we have hired a lot of people to help. But the farming season will be busy soon, and there will not be many people who can come to work, so the construction period will naturally slow down.
Already."
"Dad, are you worried that you won't be able to take care of others if you give me more money?" Lin Xuan said.
"This is not a matter of money. If the farming season is delayed, the fields will be barren. The government must be held accountable. Who dares to make this money?" Lin Dongyang said.
Lin Xuan nodded and said: "Dad, you go first. I'll go tomorrow to see if there is any way to speed up."
He planned to go to the construction site to take a look after killing the chili pepper.
