Start with detective Li Yuanfang

Chapter 11
"Li Liulang? Why is he here to join in the fun?"

When Kang Meng conveyed the news of Li Yan's invitation to fight, An Zhongjing was so angry that he almost cursed out loud.

Jia Sibo was also very displeased: "Suddenly gaining power, I don't know the heights of heaven and earth, so just send him away!"

If the normal descendants of the Li family from Longxi came to visit, they must have entertained them well and formed a friendship.

But Li Yan, a poor kid who grew up in Liangzhou, suddenly became a noble kid from a better family than them.

Even though the current situation of Li Jing's descendants is not very good, they still can't accept Li Jing's prestige in the world.

We also want to have a God of War grandpa!
Of course, we are strangers to each other, so there is no need to offend them, and it is okay to maintain a superficial politeness.

But now I have a headache about Tubo's aggressiveness, and it's really not interesting for Li Yan to appear at this time.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, Li Yan came over directly, and cut straight to the point: "You two value Kang Dalang's bravery, and I happen to have a little knowledge of martial arts, so I recommend myself, and I ask this wrestler to cooperate."

The strong man he was talking about was the strong man Meng Teng who had just been defeated. After Chi You's play ended, he stood behind Jia Sibo as an attendant.

Seeing Li Yan approaching him, Meng Teng immediately looked at his master and asked for instructions, "Ah Lang?"

Jia Sibo smiled: "Since Mr. Li Xiaolang wants to ask you for advice, you can teach him a few tricks and be careful to hold back a little bit."

"Yes!"

Meng Teng crossed his hands and saluted: "Please, Mr. Xiaolang!"

Li Yan nodded, his gentle eyes suddenly changed like lightning.

His right hand stood like a knife, raised high, and slashed down obliquely.

The whole movement is extremely clear, yet unbelievably fast.

Before Meng Teng could react, he was startled by the fierce wind blowing towards his face, and subconsciously backed away.

However, he is also experienced in many battles, and he still put on a defensive posture when retreating, although he was shocked, he did not panic.

But at this moment of lightning and flint, Li Yan's right hand clenched into a fist suddenly, and the gap in the cuff bulged, bulging and flying.

It seems that there is a storm in the sleeve, and the dragon and snake swim away.

Dan Yuan Jin, Gang Feng!

"Snapped!"

The sound of firecrackers exploded, Mengten's scalp exploded, as if a thunder had landed on his side, and his ears were buzzing.

So, he didn't see that Li Yan's clenched palms were separated again, his waist was twisted like drawing a bow to gather strength, and his five fingers were stretched out horizontally.

Bowstring strength, full bow!

"Shh!"

When Meng Teng came to his senses, his defense had been shattered, and Li Yan grabbed his shoulder with lightning speed.

By the way, the huge strong man weighing more than [-] kilograms left his feet directly off the ground, and his hands thumped stubbornly.

Angle resistance, grappling force!

After mentioning it for about three or four seconds, when everyone realized what had happened, Li Yan let go of his five fingers, and Meng Ten fell back again.

The moment he got his feet on the ground, he only felt as if he had passed away.

who I am?where am I?What happened to your kidney?

He fought dozens of rounds back and forth with the Tubo strongmen off stage, but when he got on stage, he was met by a nobleman for seconds?
"This!"

An Zhongjing next to him was dumbfounded, with two big eyes like copper bells, looking straight at Li Yan.

Jia Sibo was the most straightforward, he didn't even see clearly.

This descendant of Jia Xu is still using his clever mind to think about how to increase his chances of winning.

Seeing that this troublemaker who came to make trouble moved smoothly, ten of them couldn't breathe, and the strongest strongman under his command was caught like a little chicken.

The gap between the two sides is too big, just like teasing a child.

"Please be sure to join our polo team!"

His attitude changed [-] degrees, and he looked delighted, wishing for a warm handshake: "This battle has won Liulang, and a great victory can be expected!"

An Zhongjing was a little bit reluctant to step down, but for the sake of the overall situation, he also said: "I hope Li Liulang will help me wait!"

Li Yan said loudly: "Everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of a country. The Xiling of Tubo, a vicious country, invaded our Tang Dynasty. It is time for everyone to contribute to expel the slaves!"

"it is good!"

Everyone praised, An Zhongjing looked at him with admiration, and began to introduce the other three companions.

The ones chosen by him were not only healthy and brave, but also the direct descendants of the famous Wuwei family.

They all came up to greet each other.

But Tubo on the opposite side had already gone down to prepare, time was running out, and there was no time to chat, the group of five also got off the high platform, and the servants led the way to the stable behind the polo field.

Once inside, you can hear horses neighing one after another, and more than [-] fine horses are lined up on both sides.

All have smooth fur, strong limbs, good at running, and well-trained.

Li Yan noticed that the mane of each horse's neck was also trimmed with the same pattern as the Liangzhou team emblem.

The ponytail is tied tightly to avoid entanglement during the game.

The others were familiar with each other, and walked towards the steeds they had ridden before. Li Yan was a newcomer. Considering his strength, An Zhongjing pointed to the tallest Cong horse and said, "Mr. Li Xiaolang, this lion Cong (cōng), Can you handle it?"

Li Yan saw that the horse had a fluffy mane, was tall and mighty, and before it could run, he had the feeling of a horse whistling, and indeed had the majesty and heroism of a lion, so he couldn't help but praise: "What a horse!"

It is indeed a good horse, and it will be famous in later generations.

There is a famous rumor that Li Shimin has a lion Cong, which is irritable and difficult to subdue. The talented woman Wu Meiniang proposed to tame the lion Cong first with an iron whip, not with an iron hammer, and then with a dagger. Li Shimin thought it was too cruel, and never liked it. Wu Meiniang.

All versions of Wu Zetian TV series use this rumor, among which Fan Bayi's is the most exaggerated, in order to save Zhengtai Li Zhi, he directly killed Shizi Cong, which is far from the original.

Obviously this kind of rumor is to use the three obediences and four virtues of women in later generations to supplement the Tang Dynasty. In fact, men in this era are aggressive and women want to be strong, so they don't care about this at all.

The ending of "Taizong Zhuangzhen's ambition" in "Zi Zhi Tong Jian" is more logical, although it may also be made up.

In any case, Shizi Cong was out of the ring, Li Yan became interested, and Li Yuanfang's riding skills were good, so he nodded and said, "Okay, that's it!"

After everyone selected their mounts, An Zhongjing clapped his hands again, and a team of servants filed in. They began to put on protective gear for the five people, choose clubs, and explain the details.

Polo players have to wear wrist guards, sleeves and leg guards to protect joints and parts that are easy to be hit, wrap their palms with hand guards, and finally hold the club.

The stick is a long cylinder as a whole, and the head of the stick is bent into a crescent shape, so it is also called a crescent stick.

The surface of the stick is covered with flexible animal skin, and engraved with brilliant patterns, matching the smooth lines, giving consideration to strength and beauty when waving.

Li Yan waved his stick, and the polo player who changed his clothes faintly felt the strong wind passing by, as sharp as a sword, and couldn't help but secretly startled.

He immediately understood the position and began to impart the unique secrets.

Hitting someone in any way is not a foul.

Compared with the cumbersome rules of modern sports, ancient Juju has few restrictions, but there are also fouls.

You can't fight indiscriminately, and if you really stage a full-scale martial arts, it will lose the meaning of competition.

Later, the Empress Dowager Xiao of the Liao Kingdom killed a polo player who made her lover fall from the horse due to a malicious foul, which shows the price of fouls.

Of course, in this kind of competitive sports, it is impossible for both sides to be completely civilized. A good polo player must learn to use the rules, protect himself, and beat his opponent within a reasonable range.

Li Yan likes to hear this the most. After listening carefully to the fouling technique, he saw that the polo player skillfully weaved a knot and hung it on the back of the saddle: "Ah Lang, this is the winning knot. The stick can be hung on this winning hook." superior."

The fastening method of the knot is both beautiful and strong, and it also has the meaning of returning from victory. Li Yan played with it a bit and liked it very much.

Later, this thing developed into a ring-shaped metal structure, and the long handle of the weapon can be inserted to function as a fixed suspension.

The preparations of the crowd were completed, led by An Zhongjing, and five beauties with tall heads and tall horses appeared on the stage in a heroic manner.

"Why are there only five people?"

"Haha, we men from the Tang Dynasty are only half of the top, and we are also bloody tormenting the bandits!"

The disappointed audience outside the stadium cheered.

"Looking for an excuse to fail? Useless trick!"

Seeing that the other party was the first to win, Bren Zanren, who was guarded by nine Tubo nobles, looked down and waved to four of them: "Follow me!"

Under the cheering sound of mountains and tsunami, the two sides rode their horses towards the center line.

When polo teams from each region come on stage, the rules are slightly different.

Some saluted from afar, and some provoked at close range.

In Liangzhou, a place full of martial arts virtues, it would be too boring for both sides to be polite.

"rush!"

An Zhongjing yelled loudly, his legs hit the stirrup, his upper body leaned forward slightly, and the precious horse under his crotch jumped out at the speed of the wind and lightning.

Li Yan pinched the horse's belly lightly, and Lion Cong suddenly accelerated.

In less than ten breathless hours, the horse went from taking small steps out of the arena to galloping with all four hooves.

The smooth and graceful lines of the horse that shot out were like a bluish-white flash that pierced the ground.

Ever since, many spectators only felt that the five horses were about to reach the edge of the venue.

It was too late to say it, and then it was too fast, the five of them reined in, the horse neighed rhythmically, and its front hooves lifted off the ground.

Although it was not tidy due to lack of tacit understanding, the horse with its neck raised high and hissing to the sky was too eye-catching.

"Great Tang Wansheng!"

The five of them took the opportunity to drink loudly, and their tongues burst into spring thunder.

The sun slanted, shining on their tall and straight bodies, and the spear-like clubs went straight up, as if they were going to pierce the sky.

This is the appearance of the Liangzhou team, with martial arts and military power, the reputation spreads far and wide!
And An Zhongjing and the other four are regular visitors to the polo field, but Li Yan is an unfamiliar face.

Naturally, most of the audience outside the stadium were asking who this was.

"That's Li Liulang, my grandfather is my Tang hero, Li Gong who destroyed the Turks and Tuyuhun!"

"Okay! Jiangmen Huzi! Beat the dog hard!"

Zhang Huanhe was actually in the crowd, and took the opportunity to introduce, everyone's eyes gathered, full of anticipation.

Li Yan's attribute panel flickered immediately, and his reputation finally rose to another level.

[Fame: Little Fame (Liangzhou)] → [Fame: Fame (Liangzhou)]

【Achievement Points +50】

When trying to play in the battle, Li Yan hoped to be famous, but he didn't expect to improve so quickly.

Thinking about it, Li Yuanfang had been guarding the frontier normally for ten years, but he didn't see such exposure.

This is also human nature, one pays silently, and the other attracts attention.

But the more so, the more we must live up to this expectation.

come on!

In this game, Tubo will lose.

As I said, no one can stop it!
