Rebirth of the Three Kingdoms I call the shots

The next day, the autumn was bright and beautiful, and Liu Zhong, the housekeeper, had prepared more than a dozen meeting gifts from his son Liu Qi to his master Huang Zhong. There were celery, which meant hard work and studious; there were lotus seeds, which meant hard work; There are red beans, which means good fortune; dates, which means early high school; longan, which means success in success; and dried lean meat strips, silk and satin, brocade clothes, jade and silk, etc. to express the disciple's heart.

Liu Qi and the housekeeper Liu Zhong rode in a carriage together and arrived at General Huang Zhong's mansion.

In front of the general's mansion, there were two guards with guns (this gun was not the other gun, it looked like a red-tasseled gun) standing guard. When they saw Liu Qi's carriage approaching, they stopped him with spears. The master is here."

"What is your son's name? I don't know him, so how can I report it?" The guard obviously didn't know Liu Qi and Liu Zhong, so he took a closer look and saw that Liu Qi was dressed in civilian clothes, and Liu Zhong was an old man on his back. How eye-catching.

"I'm sorry, butler forgot to mention. I'm Liu Qi. I worshiped General Huang as my teacher yesterday. I followed the teacher's instruction and went to the mansion to ask for an audience. I also hope that the strong man will report to General Huang for his hard work." Liu Qi stepped forward and saluted the two guards with guns standing guard. , the words were very soft, but the guard was shocked to hear that the person in front of him turned out to be Liu Qi, the eldest son of Liu Biao, the governor of Jingzhou. His attitude just now was really contemptuous.

"I have no eyes, I've been negligent, and I still hope that the son will be angry and guilty. Please come in first, and I will report it." The guard who stopped Liu Qi and Liu Zhong just now could turn around, so he hurriedly invited Liu Qi in, and ran into the mansion to report to Huang Zhong. up.

This time Liu Qi will not be shut down like he was at Mrs. Cai's residence, because Huang Zhong had already made an appointment with Liu Qi to come to the General's Mansion this morning.Huang Zhong also got up early and was dressed in martial arts clothes. Since he had agreed to accept Liu Qi as his apprentice, he had to fulfill the responsibility of being a master.

Huang Zhong has a strong body, he is in the middle of his life at this time, and his ears are also good. Just now he heard the sound of the horse-drawn carriage and knew that Liu Qi had arrived. Considering that the first time they met, Huang Zhong sat indoors and did not go out to greet him. , Huang Zhong also heard the polite conversation between Liu Qi and the guard on guard, and he was very suspicious. This is not like the playboy in the legend.

Sure enough, as soon as the guards came to report, Huang Zhong couldn't wait to get out of the house. He saw Liu Qi dressed in civilian clothes, and Liu Qi's butler Liu Zhong. , and a large basket of cured bacon, Huang Zhong was relieved that this Liu Qi was generous, but he solved Huang Zhong's urgent need.

Although Huang Zhong is a general of Zhonglang, he is an upright man, he doesn't want to form a party with Jing Xiang's so-called nobles for personal gain, and the salary he receives is not enough for his family.Huang Zhong gave birth to a son and a daughter, and the son had been ill for a long time and took medicine for many years, which caused the family's financial difficulties. At this time, Liu Qi sent large bundles of food and clothes, which was like sending charcoal in a timely manner. How could Huang Zhong not be moved?

"Master, please accept my apprentice's respect." Seeing Huang Zhong approaching, Liu Qi knelt down and kowtowed to Huang Zhong.

Huang Zhong was stunned for a moment, then looked at the large package of gifts piled up in the corner of the courtyard, and hurriedly helped Liu Qi up, his voice was a little excited: "Young master, please get up quickly, you have already passed the ceremony of apprenticeship, so you don't have to be restrained in the future."

"Yes, I would like to listen to the master's instruction." Liu Qi stood up, pointed to the large bundles of things in the corner, and said: "A small gift is not a respect, but I hope the master will accept it with a smile."

"Xiao Na, Xiao Na, you are being very polite." Huang Zhong glanced at those golden cloths and large bags of food again, and his heart softened.

Huang Zhong had a smile on his face. In this way, with the help of Liu Qi, the governor of Jingzhou, his life will improve in the future, and his wife will not complain every day. From now on, he will not sleep on the bed with his wife back to back.Besides, Liu Qi, the eldest son in front of him, although he is the number one eldest son in Jingzhou, he has no arrogance. It is really unreasonable to teach Liu Qi some riding and sword skills.

Huang Zhong's attitude changed drastically from yesterday when he accepted Liu Biao's suggestion to accept Liu Qi as an apprentice in the governor's mansion. He was a little reluctant yesterday, but now he feels a little sorry for his son Liu Qi. His son respects his master and respects his master. There is no lack of etiquette at all, and there is no airs of a big son. This alone makes him seem narrow-minded.

"Xu'er, Xu'er, come and meet your son." Huang Zhong was ashamed and angry for a moment, and hurriedly called his son to ease the atmosphere, his face was a little hot, and he suddenly felt sorry for this apprentice Liu Qi. How could a master doubt his apprentice in the world? reason.

As soon as Liu Zhong finished speaking, he saw a tall and pale boy who looked like Huang Zhong running over with a bow and arrow on his back, and called Huang Zhong his father.

"This is Liu Qi, the elder son. He is the apprentice I accepted yesterday. Don't you want to meet him?" Huang Zhong first introduced to his son Huang Xu, and then introduced to Liu Qi: "My son, this is Huang Xu, my dog. From now on, you will be as close as brothers, together Learn art with me."

Under Huang Zhong's introduction, Liu Qi and Huang Xu met each other. Huang Zhong ordered Huang Xu to move the ceremony of apprenticeship presented by Liu Qi to his wife's room first. The housekeeper Liu Zhong also helped Huang Xu carry the gifts.

When Liu Qi first entered the door, in order to show his respect to his master Huang Zhong, he always lowered his eyebrows and kept his eyes straight.At this time, when Huang Xu and Liu Zhong moved in the gift, they took a good look at General Huang Zhong's residence.

The General's Mansion is not big, but it is far worse than General Cai Mao's Mansion in my impression.Although the courtyard is not big, it is clean and tidy. Except for the two guards standing guard in front of the mansion, there are no other soldiers, and there are few servants in the mansion. It can be seen from Huang Xu's coarse clothes and Huang Zhong's old armor. General Zhong's mansion cannot be described by the word "shabby". General Zhonglang is so embarrassed, Liu Biao doesn't care about it, how can he make his subordinates loyal by treating them like this?How can you keep your subordinates from feeling cold?

"I wanted to introduce my wife to the young master, but I couldn't do without the tailor shop on the street. I won't be back until Xiang Wan. The young master will be here for a day. Tomorrow, I will ask my wife to prepare some food and wine to greet the young master." Huang Zhong said To say that my wife is Huang Zhong's wife is an understatement.Seeing Liu Qi looking around the courtyard, Huang Zhong felt a little guilty, so he quickly explained and expressed his heart.In such a situation, anyone can see that Huang Zhong's life is not going well.

"Master, I'm here to learn art. I'll eat whatever Master eats. There's no need to be special." Liu Qi could see Huang Zhong's embarrassment and didn't point it out. The old general.

"That's good, my lord, please come in." Huang Zhong and Liu Qi returned to the small living room, called an older maid to bring tea and served them, and both of them knelt and sat down.

Liu Qi walked around the living room. Except for some weapons, there were no valuables in the living room, and it was still simple.I saw an oversized weapon rack in the corner of the living room. There were knives, guns, swords and halberds on the rack. Next to the rack were two large stones that looked like dumbbells. There was a wooden curved bow in the corner.It stands to reason that weapons should be used in the courtyard for martial arts practice, but Huang Zhong put them in the living room. It can be seen that Huang Zhong is preparing for Liu Qi's martial arts lecture.

"My lord, I am a martial artist, and I don't have much talent and learning. Thanks to my lord's love, I am serving as a general of Zhonglang. Today, my lord is sincerely studying, and I have nothing to hide. I just ask you a few questions, and I will teach you wisely. "Huang Zhong is honest, straight to the point and speaks out what is in his mind. Since he has accepted Liu Qi as his apprentice, he must let Liu Qi succeed in his studies. Otherwise, wouldn't it be shameful to teach him a worthless person?

"Master, please tell me." Liu Qi saluted Huang Zhongji with sincerity.

"What kind of kung fu do you want to learn as a master?" Huang Zhong asked directly.

"I've heard for a long time that my master's riding skills are as fast as lightning, and his bow and arrow can pierce Yang with a hundred steps. Qi has admired his reputation for a long time, and I got this opportunity, but I ask the master to kneel down and learn two skills, horse riding and archery." Liu Qi answered directly.

"Well, riding and shooting as a teacher is not as mysterious as what you said, but you can still teach me a thing or two. Let me ask you, how about learning how to ride a horse and shoot arrows?" Huang Zhong looked at Liu Qi expectantly and asked. road.

"Just to keep fit." Liu Qi blurted out.

Huang Zhong was a little disappointed by Liu Qi's answer, unwilling to reconcile and asked a little more suggestively: "Horses have iron hooves, and arrows have no eyes. This martial art will inevitably hurt people when you learn it. Apart from strengthening your body, you must Is there no other purpose?"

"No." Liu Qi replied affirmatively that he had no other purpose. Although he heard Huang Zhong's implication, this was not the time to express his thoughts.

"That's good, it's much easier to teach like this. Young master, you have to remember that learning martial arts depends on diligence and understanding. The master leads the door, and the practice is up to the individual." Huang Zhong sighed, a burst of disappointment welled up in his heart, lamenting that Liu Qi has no ambitions, after all He is an eldest son who is accustomed to fine clothes and fine food, learning horse riding and archery is only for strengthening his body, and it is nothing more than trying to make a name for himself.

"Qi will remember every word of the master, and I hope the master will not hesitate to teach you." Liu Qi still pays attention to etiquette. Huang Zhong's sigh can't be hidden from Liu Qi, but what Liu Qi thinks is to expose to Huang Zhong prematurely. is not wise.

"There are eighteen kinds of weapons on the weapon rack, and you should know one or two. As for the performance and function of each weapon, I will tell you one by one. You need to listen carefully and listen to what kind of weapon the teacher tells you. When your heart beats harder, it will be the weapon you are good at wearing from now on." Huang Zhong said as he got up and walked to the weapon rack, Liu Qi followed closely behind Huang Zhong.

As soon as he saw the weapons, Huang Zhong regained his spirits, swept away the depressed emotions caused by the embarrassing family situation, and looked excited, like a general commanding thousands of troops, bringing eighteen kinds of weapons such as knives, guns, swords, halberds, Axes, battle-axes, hooks, forks, etc. are held in the hands one by one, like countless treasures.

Huang Zhong talked endlessly about the time of three pillars and half incense, Liu Qi could no longer remember the origins and special functions of the eighteen weapons, only when Huang Zhong talked about the sword, his heart beat so violently that Liu Qi had to think of it. Before crossing, the special soldier Gao Qiang won a Tibetan knife when he was fighting with a group of gangsters called by Liu Yang, the urban management squadron leader of Liucheng District, Jiangnan City. It was actually an ancient noble sword. Lanhua's best friend Qin Yuebang specially made a beautiful wooden box as a sword box.

The sword box was named "Moonlight Treasure Box" by Qin Yue, hoping that the box containing the sword would have magical power in Gao Qiang's hands, and the sword in the treasure box was named "Mingyue Sword" by Gao Qiang, which means Bright Moon Sword Come out, who will fight?The bright moon shines brightly, and the world is peaceful!

"My lord, have you decided which weapon to choose?" Huang Zhong smiled at Liu Qi and talked for half an hour at a stretch. It's no longer so depressing. It turns out that it feels good to be a master. If we can take in a few more obedient and well-behaved noble children like Liu Qi, we won't be so destitute because of the long-term treatment of the sick son Huang Xu.

"Bright Moon Sword!" Liu Qi said leisurely.

"What? Bright Moon Sword? Where did you get the Bright Moon Sword? My lord, do you want to learn how to use a sword?" Huang Zhong was confused by Liu Qi's words about Bright Moon Sword. At noon in autumn, where does the bright moon come from?
