Liu Qi did not meet Chen Wu in the morning. Anyway, he had told Chen Wu to use three months to train the physical fitness of 300 soldiers. As for how to train, and how the 100 valley soldiers and the original 200 soldiers from Liu Qi would exchange defenses, that was Chen Wu's responsibility.
Liu Qi can ignore what Wen and Chen Wu have to consider. What Liu Qi values is not the process, but the results.
As for rewarding brave sergeants, Liu Qi took the advice of his steward Liu Zhong and took a step back. However, it was not enough to command three hundred soldiers. Liu Qi ordered that the three hundred soldiers were temporarily unified and Chen Wen and Chen Wu were responsible for scheduling and training. Each department
As for his position, the military power to send troops to fight is still firmly controlled by Liu Qi.
When Liu Qi came out of the valley through the six gates, he had already exchanged the brocade robe and cloak given by Huang Wudie. He took out the maroon horse from the stable and called on the two guards, Chen Chun and Chen Xia, to prepare some meager gifts and accompany them to the center.
The mansion of General Huang Zhong.
When I arrived at Huang Zhong's mansion, I saw that the door of the mansion was wide open and there were two guards standing at the door. It was obvious that Huang Zhong had returned from Jiangling.
"Strong man, please inform General Huang that my disciple Liu Qi is here to pay his respects." Liu Qi got off his horse and clasped his fists at the gatekeeper.
"Master, please come in. The general has said that if you come, you don't need to report, you can just enter the mansion directly." The guard knew Liu Qi, who had already been to Huang Zhong's mansion once.
Liu Qi was overjoyed to learn that Huang Zhong had returned home. Now that Huang Xu's epilepsy has been cured, he can be like a normal person after just recuperating at home for a while. Huang Zhong will be extremely surprised when he sees Liu Qi coming, so Huang Zhong ordered the guards in advance
This can be seen from the fact that Liu Qi did not need to announce his visit to the house.
Liu Qi straightened his clothes, straightened his back, and asked Chen Chun and Chen Xia to unload their gifts and wait beside them. When he entered the house, he shouted loudly toward Huang Zhong's room: "Master."
What Liu Qi didn't expect was that the person who came out of Huang Zhong's room was not his master Huang Zhong, but his master, Mrs. Huang. Liu Qi had a bright eye and a quick heart, so he quickly stopped and bowed deeply to Mrs. Huang: "Greetings to the master."
"Oh, savior, please come in quickly." Mrs. Huang was smiling all over her face. It could be seen that curing Huang Xu's disease also solved the heartache that Huang Zhong and his wife had suffered for many years. Naturally, she felt refreshed.
The more Liu Qi saw this talent, the happier he became. The brocade robe and cloak Liu Qi wore was made overnight by her daughter. Mrs. Huang did not reveal it, but she saw it and was happy in her heart.
"Butler, please make some tea with the young master quickly." Mrs. Huang's voice was quite high-pitched. The old butler in the servant's room stuck his head out of the wooden window of the door and responded, saying that he would be ready soon.
Liu Qi asked as he walked: "Master, has the master ever returned home?"
Mrs. Huang smiled and said: "I'm back, I'm back, I'm in the house."
"How about Junior Brother?"
"Thank you, Master, for saving me. Xu'er is in high spirits. He clamored to get off the ground and walk, but I didn't allow it. I threatened him to tell Master if he didn't obey, so he stopped arguing and said that he wanted to recover from his illness as soon as possible and that he wanted to be with Master.
We are riding horses, shooting arrows, and galloping across the battlefield." Mrs. Huang still smiled and said, "It seems that the young master has a way. As our parents say, Xu'er may not be so obedient."
Liu Qi complimented: "Master, thank you for your praise. Junior is talented, brave and competitive. He is really a mastermind."
"Oh, Master, you are right. It is a blessing for the Huang family to meet Master." Mrs. Huang was beaming with Liu Qi's praise. She looked at the brocade robe and cloak that was draped on Liu Qi's body and flowing in the wind. Mrs. Huang was
More and more, Huang Wudie fell in love with Liu Qi on behalf of her daughter.
Liu Qi smiled calmly: "Master's words are serious, I will pay my respects to the master first, and then go to see my junior brother."
When it came to visiting Huang Xu, Mrs. Huang's face turned from sunny to cloudy, and she sighed and said: "There is no need to make a special trip to see her, Xu'er is lying in the master's bedroom. Alas, the master is also talking about you in bed?"
"Oh, could it be that the master is tired from the long journey and is unwell?" Liu Qi saw that Mrs. Huang was laughing heartily at first, but she sighed when she mentioned Huang Zhong. She looked up at the sky, the sun was shining in the sky, and it was not Huang Zhong lying down.
While resting in bed.
"No, I can't figure out what the master did. When he came back, his head was covered with bandages. When I asked him, he laughed and said it was okay. If he said it was okay, it should be okay." When Mrs. Huang answered, she still cared about Huang.
Liu Qi didn't ask much about Zhong's injury. When he saw Huang Zhong, he knew what was going on.
Liu Qi followed his wife, Mrs. Huang, into the room to meet his master Huang Zhong. There were two beds in the bedroom. Huang Zhong was lying on one of the beds in the middle, and Huang Xu was lying on the other side against the wall.
"Sir, the eldest young master is here." Mrs. Huang said.
"Young Master." Huang Zhong and Huang Xu said in unison.
"Greetings, master." Liu Qi made arrangements with his hands and smiled slightly at Huang Xu next to him: "How are you, junior brother?"
"It's much better, but my father won't let me go to the ground." Huang Xu lay looking at each other and Qi, and cooed at Huang Zhong. Liu Qi and Huang Xu looked at each other and smiled.
"Young Master." Huang Zhongqiang gathered his energy and got out of the bed. He bent down on one knee and said, "Young Master saved Xu'er's life. Please accept me as my master."
"Master, you must not do it." Liu Qi couldn't bear the master's request to be his apprentice. He hurriedly stepped forward to help Huang Zhong up and said, "Master, are you injured on the head?"
"It's okay. On the way to Jiangling, I injured a giant python. I didn't expect that the giant python could sweep people with its tail before it escaped, so it knocked its head against a tree pole." Huang Zhong said it very casually, but Liu Qi sounded full of admiration for Huang Zhong.
, can kill giant pythons, which shows that Huang Zhong, the lieutenant general in Liu Biao's tent, is well-deserved and has real abilities.
"What? Master, it is unlucky for a giant python to hurt someone." Mr. Huang was surprised and his face changed drastically.
"Don't talk too much. A woman's words are alarmist." After hearing Mrs. Huang's ominous words, Huang Zhong immediately scolded her.
"Yes." Mrs. Huang didn't have any temper. She lowered her hands and stood silently, highlighting the superiority of men and the inferiority of women.
Liu Qi clearly remembered that a few days after taking Huang Xu away for treatment, Huang Zhong closed the door of his house and took two guards and hurriedly left for Jiangling. What on earth were he going to Jiangling for? But when Huang Zhong returned to Xiangyang from Jiangling, he was hit by a giant python on the head.
There must be a reason for the severe injury. Liu Qi asked with concern: "Master, did you go to Jiangling just to kill the giant python?"
"Oh, it's hard to explain in words." Huang Zhong sighed, and when he saw the butler bringing tea, he ordered: "Butler, you and your wife push Xu'er to the yard to bask in the sun. The young master and I have important matters to discuss."
"I'll come, I'll come." Liu Qi wanted to step forward to help.
"No trouble, sir, please have some tea." The old housekeeper put the brewed tea on the small desk, and then together with Mrs. Huang, they pushed Huang Xu, who was lying on a simple wooden bed with four wooden wheels, out of the bedroom.
.
Seeing that only Liu Qi was left in the bedroom, Huang Zhong said sincerely: "I won't hide anything from you, sir. Please forgive me for being presumptuous. As a teacher, I never want to owe any favors in my life, and my master is no exception."
Liu Qi said respectfully: "Master is an upright man and has a clean sleeve, so how can he be owed a favor? The disciple feels very ashamed that he cannot repay his kindness."
Huang Zhongdao: "Young Master's words are serious. Xu'er is saved, and it is all thanks to him that the incense of our Huang family can be continued. This feeling is really great. I am thinking about giving you a gift as my apprenticeship. After thinking about it, I can't think of anything.
When I was able to deliver it, I thought of the best sword in the world, the sword of King Goujian of Yue. Thinking that the young master could sacrifice his life in the dangerous valley of Longshan Mountain to find an immortal to save Xu'er, why not go to Jiangling to pry the tomb in search of a sword to help the young master, so that the sword of King Goujian of Yue can show its majesty again.
In today's troubled times, how about killing the evildoers and helping the Han Dynasty to obey the people and bring peace of mind to the world?"
Liu Qi was overjoyed when he heard this. Huang Zhong was such a man of faith that he actually wanted to give him the sword Gou Jian, King of Yue. Wouldn't it be great if he could get the best sword in the world, which can cut iron like mud and be as cold as the ice moon, and fight in the Eastern Han Dynasty?
Want to be even more powerful?
Liu Qi suppressed the joy of getting the best sword in the world, but pretended not to care much about the sword on his face, and replied calmly: "Master, could it be that he went to Jiangling Tombs?"
Huang Zhong nodded and said: "Exactly."
Liu Qi asked directly: "Master, did you rob the tomb?"
"Exactly."
"If I knew that the master would be injured by the giant python if he robbed the tomb, I would rather not have this sword." Liu Qi expressed his concern for the master.
"Although the sword is a good one, it's a pity that before he could rob the tomb, he encountered a giant python, and the master's trip was in vain." Huang Zhong sighed again.
Huang Zhong's sigh was like a drop of cold water in his pocket, which instantly extinguished Liu Qi's strong desire to possess the best sword in the world. Huang Zhong did not steal the Yue King Goujian Sword, and Liu Qi suddenly felt a huge sense of loss.
Liu Qi concealed the disappointment of wanting to gain and lose again, and comforted Huang Zhong: "Master, don't worry, it doesn't matter whether the sword is a sword or not. The most important thing is for the master to take care of himself."
Huang Zhongdao: "After some time, when my master's head injury is better, I will definitely find the sword with you."
Seeing Huang Zhong's attitude of not giving up until he found the Goujian Sword, Liu Qi's heart gradually aroused the desire to own the best sword in the world, and said: "Master is determined to find the sword, and the disciple is extremely grateful. However, the sword was not found, but he encountered a python.
It's not a good omen, so Master can't go any further."
Huang Zhong shook his head and said: "Sir, what you said is wrong. With a python to protect you, it must be a good sword. How can I be willing to do it if I don't find this sword?"
Liu Qi saw that Huang Zhong was determined to do it. If he went to the Jiangling Tombs again, he would be in trouble. Liu Qi was not willing to see Huang Zhong swallowed by a giant python in front of Gou Jian's tomb before he had made any meritorious service under his command. If he wanted to deal with the giant python,
Liu Qi thought of one person, and that was E Huan, who could race with tigers and wolves and was as strong as an ox.
If Chen Wen, who had gone through three gates of hell, was brought with him, Chen Wu and other guards would not be able to find the Goujian Sword. And the tomb of Goujian Sword, Liu Qi's lengthy story about "excavating the tomb of King Goujian of Yue and unearthing the first sword in a thousand years" from later generations.
According to official news reports, it is believed that it is not difficult to find the place where Gou Jian was buried.
"Master's kindness is appreciated by my disciple. Since my younger brother still needs more care from my master, my master does not need to go there in person during the journey to find the sword. I would like to bring a few loyal and brave guards to Jiangling, and I also ask my master's permission."
"This..." Huang Zhong thought of Huang Xu lying on the bed and knew that he might not be around. No one could really control Huang Xu when he was naughty. If Huang Xu had another misfortune, Huang Zhong's life would be meaningless.
Seeing Huang Zhong's hesitation, Liu Qi mentioned Huang Xu and knew to point to Huang Zhong's acupoint. Without further delay, he hurriedly said goodbye to Huang Zhong: "Master, I will be back in just a little while, so don't worry."
"Sir... the giant python is here and there, and it's hard to tell whether the tombs are genuine or not. This trip is not a pleasant trip." Huang Zhong thought Liu Qi was just talking to comfort the master, but he didn't expect Liu Qi to actually go to the Jiangling tombs to steal the sword.
Even with all his martial arts skills, he was almost buried in the belly of a giant python, not to mention his apprentice Liu Qi, who was not even good at riding and archery? There was another point that Huang Zhong didn't mention. It was just that Huang Zhong just found the tombs and met the giant python and gave up halfway. Sorry to say it, the giant python gave up halfway.
Pythons are just one of them. What if there are also ferocious beasts like tigers, wild wolves, and pigs?
"I have made up my mind, master, don't dissuade me, just say goodbye." Thinking of the best sword in the world, Liu Qi said no more and said goodbye to Huang Zhong. He walked out of Huang Zhong's mansion with his head raised and called Chen Chun. Chen Xia rushed back to Longshan Valley to find him.
Chen Wen and Chen Wu discussed urgently, and while the python guarding the tomb was still injured, they prepared to go to the Wangshan Tombs in Jiangling to steal the sword - the sword of King Goujian of Yue, the best sword in the world.
