Chapter 185

When he heard that he was about to be punished, Zhang Fei rolled his eyes without fear at all. He waved his hand and said boldly: "Just punish me. What are you afraid of? - I will only punish you with sword dancing or single combat, right?"

"That's right." Liu Bian glanced back and forth between Guan Yu, Zhang Yan, Gongsun Yue, Gongsun Fan and Guan Hai. He had already considered the list for the duel, and he would not let the middle-aged group suffer...

Before he could think of the word "face", Liu Bian heard Zhang Fei say:

"That's good! I'm going to fight the second brother one-on-one!"

--Ok? !
Liu Bian was stunned for a moment, looked at Zhang Fei blankly, then looked at Guan Yu, and was speechless: Hey, hey, is it true or not?Mr. Zhang, do you really want to challenge your second brother Guan to a duel?What should I do if I lose? ... frowning slightly, Liu Bian said:
"I haven't finished speaking yet."

"——Please speak!" Zhang Fei said.

Liu Bian said: "If we are to challenge each other, we have to draw lots to arrange it."

"...drawing lots? Arrangement?" Zhang Fei scratched his head, with a confused look on his face, but he grasped the key points, "Sir, can you arrange a duel between me and my second brother?"

Hearing this, Guan Yu also looked over.

Cough!

Look what this naughty kid said!
If it was really arranged, wouldn't it mean that I was operating in secret?
Don't be afraid of people's jokes!

The corners of Liu Bian's mouth twitched and he said decisively: "No! The target of the duel is random! Wait a moment, I will order someone to take out six small slips of paper, with the number of words on each small slip of paper, and we will rank each other according to the numbers!
For example, if you draw "one" and General Guan draws "two", then you can fight against General Guan!
On the contrary, if you draw "one" and General Guan draws "three", then you cannot fight against General Guan!

understand?
Do you have any objections? "

He looked around at the six people present.

The six people present did not say a word, which was regarded as acquiescence.

"Very good!" Liu Bian clapped his hands.

He Xianshu walked up to the familiar door, as if he had been prepared for it - Bah, bah, bah!It was indeed prepared in advance...but that's not the point. The point is: He Xian brought six small pieces of paper and pen and ink and placed them on the desk.

Then, Liu Bian marked each slip of paper with a number: one, two, three, four, five, six.

No more, no less, exactly six, which can be divided into three groups——

This is bad!
Liu Bian, who didn't even notice that Zhang Fei was watching intently while Guan Yu glanced at him casually, thought depressedly while marking the words: According to previous thoughts, Zhang Fei, Guan Yu and Zhang Yan are the official officials of Bohai County. As long as we stagger and fight against Gongsun Yue, Gongsun Fan and Guan Hai at will, we can ensure that the three of them do not lose face... This is a good time. He was messed up by Zhang Fei and accidentally violated the original design and changed it to random!
What if Zhang Fei, Guan Yu and Zhang Yan accidentally fight each other?
What are you really afraid of? What's coming: When the six wrong guessers were drawn, the situation that Liu Bian least wanted to meet happened happened——

Zhang Fei drew "four", while Guan Yu drew "three"; Zhang Yan drew "two"; Gongsun Yue drew "five"; Gongsun Fan drew "one"; Guan Hai drew "six"!
In other words: Zhang Fei got his wish!

Really duel with Guan Yu!

Gongsun Fan will fight against Zhang Yan, and Gongsun Yue will challenge Guan Hai.

——Except for the group of Zhang Fei and Guan Yu, Liu Bian of the other two groups reluctantly agreed!

Liu Bian: "..."

No no no!How can you approve it?This is a big difference, okay?
Is there something wrong?

Looking at Zhang Fei and Guan Yu suspiciously, Liu Bian wanted to ask if Zhang Fei or Guan Yu had done anything, but he had no evidence... Zhang Fei rolled up his sleeves and said with a blushing face:
"Second brother, I want to fight you!"

Guan Yu was also eager to give it a try and responded: "I will accompany you to the end!"

"——Wait a minute!" Liu Bian said, pouring a lot of cold water on the two of them. It was really embarrassing. "You can fight one on one, but you are not allowed to hurt the other party's life. You are not allowed to use weapons. You can only fight with your bare hands. That's it. ...Moreover, the competition must be a good one, and no public property is allowed to be destroyed!"

Zhang Fei: "..."

Guan Yu: "..."

Rarely, Zhang Fei and Guan Yu looked at Liu Bian quietly.

However, Liu Bian was calm and calm. After a flash of inspiration, he remained calm. He pointed his hand at a large open space in the distance and signaled: "You two go there to compete.

——Someone comes! "

Liu Bian clapped his hands.

He Xian waited for the guards to see him, and then quickly cleared and arranged the place: first, he made sure that the open space was spacious enough, and then moved tables, cushions, and some food so that Liu Bian could sit down and watch.

At the same time, Cao Cao and others took the picture of a gourd, and after asking Liu Bian for instructions, they also prepared their own tables, chairs, drinks, moved them over, moved them under the tables, and arranged them in two rows, leaving a space in the middle. , no different from banquet seats.

Then, Liu Bianju took the main seat, while Cao Cao and others took their seats one by one, watching Guan Yu and Zhang Fei stand face to face.

Perhaps there was so much movement here that it attracted many people from Nanpi County.

When he listened carefully, Liu Bian could still hear the people of Nanpi County standing outside chattering, asking each other, "What's going on? Do you know what happened here? Why did those officials gather here?" ...?"

After listening, Liu Bian winked at He Xian and whispered a few words, and after He Xian handed over his hand to accept the order, he saw He Xian quietly walk away, mixed with the people in Nanpi County, raised his voice, and answered in time :

"I know who these two people are! On the left is Zhang Fei, whose courtesy name is Yide, who means "thief catcher" and is the magistrate of Yangxin County!On the right is Guan Yu, whose courtesy name is Yunchang. He is the "thief Cao Yu" and is the magistrate of Gaocheng County!Both of them guessed wrong in the "Riddle Guessing" activity just now and must be punished!
The method of punishment is single combat!

The governor of Bohai has always been curious about who is more powerful among the two, so he took the opportunity to watch around today. "

"Oh! No wonder! No wonder I feel familiar. It turns out they are General Guan and General Zhang!" The audience around them suddenly realized and communicated with each other. In less than a few breaths, all the people were talking to each other. knew.Seeing this, He Xian didn't blink and asked casually:
"Who do you think is more powerful among these two?"

"Do you even need to ask? Of course it's General Guan! General Guan is more powerful than General Zhang!" "Isn't it? Isn't it? Look! General Guan's posture is more imposing than General Zhang!" "I also bet on General Guan. Can win!”

Bah bah bah bah, the audience was discussing with great interest, but none of them got to the point.

Regardless, if He Xian was asked to evaluate, He Xian couldn't evaluate whose martial arts was higher.

However, everyone seems to have not heard of the deeds of "Guan Yu beheading the leader of Wuhuan", just comparing Guan Yu and Zhang Fei?Not to mention that Guan Yu once refused to be granted the title of Marquis? ...It can be seen that Guan Yu's confidentiality measures are adequate!

In other words: Guan Yu's fame...isn't big enough.

Without looking sideways, He Xian quietly withdrew from the crowd and returned behind Liu Bian.

Liu Bian was satisfied to see that the atmosphere of the scene was warm enough: the audience started booing, shouting "Hurry up! Hurry up!" while Cao Cao and others whispered, whispering about the strength of Guan Yu and Zhang Fei... Guan Yu and Zhang Fei Before flying to fight, he took off all the thick cotton clothes he was wearing, and only put on a strong suit, which made Liu Bian's eyelids twitch.

Liu Bian inexplicably doubted whether Guan Yu and Zhang Yu had made an agreement in advance.

Otherwise, what would the two of them do wearing fancy clothes?

At the competition venue, Zhang Fei grinned, locked on to the target, and said slowly: "Second brother, how long has it been since we singled out?"

Guan Yu held his hand and replied: "It feels like a long time, but it's only more than a month."

As soon as the words were finished, Zhang Fei came down the mountain like a tiger, pounced up, and was about to hit Guan Yu's face hard with his fists.

Guan Yu hurriedly jumped around, clasped Zhang Fei's fist, and swept his feet. He came with a kick, but Zhang Fei deftly avoided it.

After that, the two sides went back and forth, really fighting with bare hands, punching to the flesh, interlocking, and the movements were very fierce, as if the two people would die together in the next moment, which made Liu Bian's scalp numb. I lamented that the two of them were so close to each other, but I was really worried that if one of them was accidentally hit, they would either die or be disabled. "Okay! Okay! Okay!" But the onlookers watched with gusto and cheered from time to time.

What's even more exaggerated is that Cao Cao and others' eyes lit up. They seemed to be amazed by the performance of Guan Yu and Zhang Fei. It was also the first time they witnessed the bravery and prowess of Guan Yu and Zhang Fei. They couldn't help but toast Liu Bei and praised:
"Magistrate Xuande, your two sworn brothers are peerless warriors. They are really enviable and jealous!"

Reciprocating courtesy, Liu Bei greeted the generals in a good-tempered manner: "Everyone has praised you, everyone has praised you."

As he was talking, he saw a layer of soil suddenly blowing around.

Huh?
soil?

Everyone was stunned for a moment and looked around, but they saw Guan Yu and Zhang Fei fighting for dozens of rounds. They fought hard and panted, but they still didn't stop. Instead, the fight became more intense: On the other hand, Guan Yu stretched out a palm, He wanted to hit Zhang Fei, but Zhang Fei dodged him. Guan Yu couldn't control his posture and accidentally hit the table with his palm.

Zhang Fei was surprised. He squatted down without thinking, reached out and grabbed a handful of soil, shaped it into a ball, and stuffed it into Guan Yu's palm as fast as lightning, but Guan Yu directly shook it and flew it away!
Hula, the clods of earth were shaken to pieces, and they soon fascinated the eyes of Zhang Fei and Guan Yu.

——So, Cao Cao, Liu Bei and others were simply affected!
At the other end, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were still fighting fiercely: Zhang Fei's recovery speed was slightly slower than Guan Yu's, but Guan Yu struck out, caught Zhang Fei's fist, used his strength, and punched Zhang Fei onto the table.Zhang Fei was furious and tried his second punch, but Guan Yu blocked it again...

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei faced off and competed for strength.

On this end, when Liu Bei was "disgraced", his first reaction was to look at Liu Bian.

What makes Liu Bei happy is that Liu Bian is sitting farthest away, and there are guards close to protect him, so he will not be in trouble for the time being... Wait a minute!Liu Bei's expression changed and he shouted:

"Your Highness! Squat down quickly!"

"What?" Liu Bian was confused.

Before Liu Bian could take action, he saw Liu Bei, Cao Cao, and Yuan Shao all rushing towards him——

The flying debris flew and fell on Liu Bei, Cao Cao and Yuan Shao one after another. However, Liu Bian was safe and sound under the defense of He Xian and other guards, and did not touch anything at all.

"Your Highness, please move over there." Liu Bei pointed to another open space.

That blank space, without Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, should be safe.

Liu Bian sighed, said nothing, and changed places obediently.

Looking at Guan Yu and Zhang Fei again, there is no winner yet. At most, Guan Yu took advantage of Zhang Fei's disadvantage and suddenly let go, hitting Zhang Fei's abdomen with both palms, almost knocking Zhang Fei away!

Zhang Fei was clearly attacked from the front and should have been injured.

But Zhang Fei got up quickly, and fought Guan Yu again as if nothing had happened.

Moreover, the battle between Zhang Fei and Guan Yu caused an even larger disaster: seeing Zhang Fei charging towards him, Guan Yu avoided it without fighting, jumped on tables, climbed up stairs, and finally raced Zhang Fei around a pillar!
Zhang Fei kicked the table, jumped over the steps, aimed at the pillar, and punched hard with both fists, until the pillar was broken.

Guan Yu was startled and immediately somersaulted away, while Zhang Fei broke the railing again.

"Wow!" Liu Bian opened his eyes wide and stared blankly at Zhang Fei and Guan Yu jumping up and down, destroying public property... Speaking of these two peerless generals, do you still remember what I said before?

Did I say: No destruction of public property?

Liu Bian: "..."

Holding his forehead, Liu Bian expressed that he was tired.

Contrary to Liu Bian, the surrounding spectators were mesmerized, watching with awe, admiration and envy at the military commanders in front of them dueling. Is this the ceiling of dueling?
So, here comes the question: What should we do to make Guan Yu and Zhang Fei stop fighting?
According to the current situation, even if Guan Yu and Zhang Fei fight until dawn, they probably won't be able to tell the difference!
Involuntarily, Liu Bian reached out and patted Liu Bei's shoulder.

At that time, Liu Bei was very worried and looked at Liu Bian doubtfully, without even thinking about how to make Guan Yu and Zhang Fei stop.

With his head full of black lines, Liu Bian said: "Uncle Wang, don't you have any ideas?"

Liu Bei said: "What do you think?"

Liu Bian said: "The idea of ​​​​stopping people! Uncle Wang, I see that General Guan and General Zhang are very destructive...cough! I mean, the fight is too fierce and there may be injuries. Uncle Wang, do you want to stop it?"

Liu Bei felt that his words were reasonable, so he got up and shouted: "Second brother! Third brother!"

After drinking it, Liu Bei miraculously stopped the fight between Guan Yu and Zhang Fei.

Although Liu Bian failed to tell who was stronger, Guan Yu or Zhang Fei.

However, Liu Bian no longer wanted to pay attention.

Take a look, take a look at the mess on the ground. They are all the work of Guan Yu and Zhang Fei.

These two guys, once they get into a fight, they forget about themselves and don't remember to protect any public property at all.

Wiping the sweat off his forehead, Zhang Fei laughed loudly and said, "Have fun! Have fun! Young Master, how was my heads-up match? Wonderful?"

At this moment, Zhang Fei remembered what Liu Bian said again.

Liu Bian lost his temper and said: "Wonderful, wonderful, so wonderful."

Didn't you see everyone's jaw dropped and their faces full of shock?
Hearing this, Zhang Fei asked again: "My lord, what reward do you have?"

Liu Bian wanted to complain, "Zhang Fei, you and Guan Yu have not decided the winner, what reward do you want?"... But he finally held back.You can't cheat, otherwise it will be endless!Seeing as the quality of this one-on-one match is extremely rare, shall I satisfy your idea? ——Clearing his throat, Liu argued:

"The prizes will be distributed later! Don't forget that there are two more groups?"

Zhang Fei patted his forehead and said, "Then I'll wait."

Zhang Fei and Guan Yu stood quietly in a corner, looking forward to the performance of the next group of heads-up matches.

However, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei had a ceiling-level single challenge. The other two groups performed better, but they were not as good as Guan Yu and Zhang Fei?

Therefore, the subsequent battle between the two groups was quite satisfactory, and no one caused any damage.

Gongsun Fan fought against Zhang Yan and was defeated; Gongsun Yue challenged Guan Hai, but failed... Watching the whole process, Gongsun Fan and Gongsun Yue were not as good as Zhang Yan and Guan Hai. Gongsun Zan laughed angrily and said rudely :

"Fan'er, Yue'er, you guys usually neglect exercise!"

Gongsun Fan and Gongsun Yue lowered their heads, neither daring to refute.

No matter how you say it, this duel was so exciting that Zhang Fei and Guan Yu thought they were second, and no one dared to think they were first.

For this reason, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei... can be said to have fought in Nanpi County.

From then on, no matter where Guan Yu and Zhang Fei went, as long as the people of Nanpi County saw them, they would exclaim:
"Look, look! That's General Guan and General Zhang! Have you heard of it? General Guan once almost made a marquis, but unfortunately he refused..."

Everyone knows the experiences of Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, and even Liu Bei very well.
