Rogue master in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 177 Magical Green Vine
After a few days of heavy snowfall, the cold weather gradually became warmer. Under the bright moonlight, the sound of martial arts training faintly came from the courtyard.

"Auntie, this is too scary, I dare not look at it." Liu Rui turned her head and said to Ji Xinjun beside her.

In the middle of the open space in the courtyard, there were two men standing with their upper bodies bare.One of them is lean and holds a knife in his hand, while the other is strong. He straddles a horse and holds his hands flat. His arm muscles curve amazingly, like continuous hills, which is strange. Yes, there was something light green painted on his body, which gave off a strange light under the moonlight.

Ji Xinjun stroked Liu Rui's head lightly, and said with a smile, "Don't worry, trust Auntie, just watch."

"Miss Liu, don't blink!" The thin young man with a knife on the opposite side said to Liu Rui with a smile.

Liu Rui looked at the man, and saw that the young man was quite handsome, especially the provocative smile on the corners of his mouth, which was very charming.But when Liu Rui saw the sharp long knife in his hand that gave off a cold light, and then took a look at the big man covered in green, she couldn't bear to look at it and shook her head again and again.

Ji Xinjun glared at the young man, who immediately stuck out his tongue in fright.

The burly man beside him laughed loudly: "Zhao Jun, hurry up and let Miss Rui'er see the magic of our second lady's medicine!"

"Okay." The skinny young man named Zhao Jun chuckled, raised the knife in his hand, raised the knife, and slashed at the strong man's arm.

And the strong man let out a yell, and his green-painted arm muscles tensed suddenly.

"Cha-"

Liu Rui exclaimed, covering her face and not daring to look.

Ji Xinjun shook her head and smiled.

"Ouch, ouch... bleeding, bleeding..." Zhao Jun yelled.

"Auntie, hurry up and save people..." Liu Rui's already pale cheeks looked even paler under the moonlight, but when she looked through her fingers, she let go of her hands in surprise and joy.

I saw that the strong man's arm was unscathed, but the long knife in Zhao Jun's hand was broken in two!
It turned out that what Zhao Jun yelled just now was to scare himself. Liu Rui bit her lip and glared at Zhao Jun, then turned around and looked at Aunt with a snort, showing a rare smile, "Auntie's medicine is amazing, it can make you invulnerable if you apply it on your body. ?"

Ji Xinjun said with a smile: "This ointment is called 'Green Vine'. My aunt extracted it from a plant in the Nanman area, Green Vine, and made it with a secret recipe. After it was applied on the body and dried, it formed a layer of hard armor like fish scales. Of course, this green vine can only offset part of the force of the sword, but if martial arts practitioners like Ma Ge who have an iron cloth background paint such a layer of green vine on their bodies, they can indeed become invulnerable."

Then Zhao Jun also came over, smiled and said: "It's amazing, I can be invulnerable even if I put it on!"

But the big man named Ma Yi laughed and scolded: "Zhao Jun, you can just brag, the second lady's medicine is as powerful as yours. I don't need a knife to break your thin bones."

Zhao Jun seemed to be a little afraid of Ma Yi, so he didn't refute after hearing this, and tried to get close to Liu Rui.

"Miss Liu, why don't I chop you up too, so I'm sure you'll be fine!" Zhao Jun approached Liu Rui with a smile, and saw that the girl in front of him looked like a flower, no, she was more beautiful than a flower, and he was even more delighted.

Liu Rui pursed her thin lips tightly and shook her head in silence.No matter how Zhao Jun made her happy, he was indifferent.

Mr. Ji Xin also knew Liu Rui's temperament, so he gave Zhao Jun a wink, and Zhao Jun could only turn around sullenly, and yelled and practiced his sword skills.

Zhao Jun has a frivolous personality and is not serious, but his skills are recognized by Ji Xinjun.Different from Ma Yi's stability, his movements are fast and flexible, and a knife looks like the one on his body.

Ji Xinjun smiled and said nothing. This time when entering the customs, the caravan will naturally be protected by bodyguards, and the bodyguards who can follow her will naturally be of good strength.And Zhao Jun and Ma Yi are the best among them, the leaders of the team.

At this time, Ma Yi smiled respectfully at Ji Xinjun: "Second miss, the effect of this green vine is very good, but it's a pity that the material of this green vine is too rare to find, otherwise, once it can be mass-produced, let our brothers in Liujiabingfang All will be given a copy, so you won’t be afraid of bandits robbing you when you go on a business trip in the future!”

Although Liu's Bingfang's business can't be said to be spread all over the world, its scope is still very wide.Like the afterlife, the big business is home delivery.Liu's Bingfang has raised a group of family soldiers, which can not only protect the family, but also escort and transport weapons along the way.But in troubled times, bandits and bandits are as jealous as weapons and food.Therefore, during the escort, many thieves and bandits will naturally be attracted, and even government officers and soldiers who are rampant and do all kinds of crimes can't help but get involved.Therefore, it is very important to have a strong bodyguard brigade escort.

"I also thought about equipping all the bodyguards in our clan with green vines. Unfortunately, green vines can only be bred in remote areas of Nanman, and they are monopolized by the local Nanman tribe. I also went to Nanling last year to collect herbs and met the tribe. The patriarch of the family got some." Ji Xinjun said.

……

Here Zhao Jun is playing happily, jumping left and right like a monkey, jumping up and down, very flexible.Suddenly he bent his knees, and the whole person jumped onto the three-meter-high rockery, with amazing jumping ability.But after jumping up, his feet slipped, and he lost his balance and fell down.Liu Rui was so frightened that she covered her mouth and screamed, but found that this guy was pretending. Before she could yell out, Zhao Jun turned over in the air, stood firmly on the ground, looked at Liu Rui with a smug smile .

Seeing that Zhao Jun was fine, Liu Rui made a false alarm, turned her head and ignored Zhao Jun again.Zhao Jun made fun of himself, so he simply sat beside the rockery and felt depressed.

"Auntie, Rui'er is tired and wants to go back." Liu Rui said to Ji Xinjun.

Ji Xinjun nodded pitifully.

At this moment, footsteps sounded in the corridor of the courtyard.

The four people in the courtyard looked up, but it was Liu Bei and Chen Wei.

When Liu Rui, who was about to go back to her room, raised her head and saw Chen Wei, her gloomy eyes lit up slightly.Zhao Jun happened to see this detail in his eyes, followed his line of sight, and frowned when he saw Chen Wei.

"Ruier..." Liu Bei looked happy when he saw his daughter, and when he was about to speak, Liu Rui turned dark and passed Liu Bei directly.
Liu Bei smiled wryly.

But surprisingly, Liu Rui stopped beside Chen Wei.

"Thank you for the flowers." Liu Rui raised her head to look at Chen Wei, then avoided her eyes, a bit of girlish shyness appeared on her face.

Zhao Jun's expression changed slightly by the corridor, and he looked at Chen Wei with more jealousy.

Chen Wei glanced at the pale-faced Liu Rui beside him, and said softly, "Actually, I would rather you thank me for the story I told you."

Liu Rui's thin body trembled slightly, she bit her lower lip and asked, "Is that young master in the story you?"

Chen Wei nodded.

"You treated her so well, why did she die?" Liu Rui raised her head.

A look of pain flashed across Chen Wei's eyes, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he said, "It's not important, but I hope you understand a truth, you don't know how precious something is until you lose it!"

Liu Rui raised her head, glanced at him quietly, her eyes were full of indifferent silence, and then left.

Chen Wei sighed softly, turned around and saw the depressed Liu Bei, smiled and said: "Grand Liu, some things can't be rushed, take your time."

Liu Bei looked meaningfully at Chen Wei and the departing Liu Rui, nodded slightly, and said, "The future will last forever."

Chen Wei glanced at Liu Bei when he heard the words that seemed to imply a deep meaning, but Liu Bei walked down the verandah and came to the courtyard.

"I've met Master Xuande!" Ma Yi and Zhao Jun came to Liu Bei and bowed to say hello.Zhao Jun raised his head and glanced at Chen Wei, hiding his anger.

In the early morning of the next day, the gate of Yiyang City opened slowly, and a horse team drove out.There were about 100 horsemen in the team. Zhao Jun and Ma Yi rode at the front, surrounded by a carriage with the badge of "Liu's Armory" in the center, and stopped at the gate of the city.

Perhaps the sound of horseshoes alarmed the rats in the cracks in the city wall, and a few dark rats slipped out. Seeing so many people, they ran away in fright, hid in the corner of the city gate, and looked at these people at the city gate furtively. .Although they couldn't understand people's farewell words, they felt relieved and slipped away after they were out of danger.

And the winter sun has slowly risen, shining on the faces of the people in front of the city gate.Liu Rui reluctantly watched her aunt get into the carriage, then glanced at the man, glared at him resentfully, then turned and left alone.

The horse team set off and headed towards Chongshan in the east.

……

Inside the carriage, Chen Wei still thought about Liu Rui's eyes just now, and smiled wryly.

"General Xiao Chen, it's your turn." Ji Xinjun looked at Chen Wei quietly, with a faint smile still on the corner of his mouth, but the arc of the corner of his mouth softened his cold face.

Chen Wei came back to his senses slightly, and stared at the chessboard again.

In Go, if you say it is unfamiliar, it is not unfamiliar, and if you say it is familiar, it is not familiar.It is no stranger because the grandfather of later generations loves Go the most besides Wing Chun.As a grandson, in addition to learning boxing, he naturally plays Go with his grandfather.When playing chess, the old man's favorite line of poetry is "How can we expect to win or lose in life, and it is difficult to bully Zhuge to death."

Speaking of unfamiliarity, I played against my grandpa with [-] or [-] games, but I never won, maintaining an astonishing record of total losses.Of course, grandpa is an old member of the Go Association, and he has even played against several senior members of the national team. Naturally, this level is not something Chen Wei can compete with.However, it does not mean that Chen Wei's chess skills are not as good as others, and he can improve his level no matter how much he loses.

At least in the chess game in front of him, Chen Wei did not lose the upper hand at all, and even gained the upper hand slightly.

After guessing, Ji Xinjun held the black first and played very steadily. At this moment, she was leaning on the cushion of the carriage, holding a sunspot and playing with her two fingers.

Chen Wei, who came back to his senses, made up the chess with the second son on the upper right, grabbed another move, and waited for Ji Xinjun to make a move on the right.

The old man once said that Chen Wei played chess like a human being, too impulsive and very murderous.Every chess move is a style of killing one thousand enemies and destroying eight hundred.

At this moment, although Chen Wei's temperament is far better than that of Chen Wei back then, his style of playing chess has not changed. He is aggressive and unyielding with a killing spirit. Ji Xinjun, who killed the chess style, frowned, and finally chose to compromise instead of entangled with Chen Wei.

Chen Wei strikes while the iron is hot, and kills decisively several times in a row without hesitation.And so far in the opening, Chen Wei's white piece is very wide on the left side, and the situation is obviously very good.

Perhaps because of the good situation, Chen Wei's eyes were not on the chessboard, but on Ji Xinjun who was opposite.

Ji Xinjun doesn't seem to be concerned about the disadvantages in the chess game, her posture is comfortable, her face is gentle on the surface, but in fact has a cold and glamorous temperament that rejects people thousands of miles away. She can't see any worries. Her smooth and soft face is like suet white jade Gently playing with the chess pieces in his hands.

While Chen Wei was secretly admiring the graceful figure of the woman in front of him, Ji Xinjun's chess move made Chen Wei lose his leisurely mood.

Before, in terms of momentum, Chen Wei had the upper hand, he was the main fighter, and Ji Xin's guardian.The chess style is different from the stable old man. Ji Xinjun reveals a softness hidden in the needles, calm and composed, and the moves will definitely not cause thunder on the ground, but they can never turn danger into safety. It seems to give in, but it never gives Chen Wei any advantage.

However, after this move, the situation changed like a sudden change. Although the situation would not be reversed all at once, judging from the result, he had no obvious gains, and the battle became a bit complicated.

If this move made Chen Wei just a little nervous, then Ji Xinjun's consecutive moves would completely defeat Chen Wei's confidence.

The reason is that Chen Wei wanted to take advantage of some officials, but ended up falling into Ji Xinjun's tricks. When Chen Wei reacted, Ji Xinjun had already shifted from strategic defense to strategic counterattack.
