Legend of the Heroes of the Southern Kingdom

Chapter 35

With Qiu Shan's care and the elixir given by the young master, Li Wenxuan's injury healed quickly. After three to five days, although he was still unable to practice with a sword, his daily actions were fine, so he continued to work together with Qiu Shan. Hurry up.Along the way, Qiu Shan also taught Li Wenxuan all of his "Qiu-style Sanshou", so the road was full of exercises and bickering, and the day naturally passed quickly.

That afternoon, Li Wenxuan and Qiu Shan rode side by side. Li Wenxuan saw a tower in front of him from afar, which was much taller than the city wall of Luzhou City. Li Wenxuan said to himself: "I don't know where this is. Courage!"

Here, Qiu Shan answered, "You really have never seen the market. On the territory of the southern country, apart from Lin'an, no other city has such a grandeur. How about it? Look stupid, fight!" Qiu Shan finished speaking to Li Wenxuan , which urged the white horse to sit down and quickly headed towards the city gate.

"Brother Qiu, wait for me!" Seeing that Qiu Shan took a step ahead, Li Wenxuan hurried forward too.After chasing to the gate of the city, Qiu Shan was waiting for him outside the gate, so he said, "Brother Qiu, why are you in such a hurry, I have had such a hard time chasing him."

Qiu Shan didn't answer Li Wenxuan, but pointed to a red list on the wall outside the city and said, "Look, the Su family in Lin'an Prefecture has such a great face, it's such a big move to find a son-in-law."

Li Wenxuan looked in the direction of Qiu Shan's finger, and there was a notice posted on the side of the outer wall. Looking again, it said how to recruit relatives through martial arts competitions. Li Wenxuan didn't care about these trivial matters, glanced at them, and said to Qiu Shan: "They The Su family's recruitment of a son-in-law is not for you, you don't care how much noise they make, let's go to the city first."

"You!" Qiu Shan glared at Li Wenxuan, his eyes seemed to be complaining about something and he couldn't speak, and he said instead: "Let's go, let's go, go to the city to find a place to eat, go to bed early, or I will get angry when I see you."

Seeing Qiu Shan became a little unhappy again, Li Wenxuan was confused, scratched his head and didn't understand what he said wrongly to offend Qiu Shan, so he had no choice but to follow Qiu Shan into the city silently.

Qiu Shan is obviously familiar with the way, and after walking with Li Wenxuan for a short time, he found an inn, entered one after another with Li Wenxuan, and asked the waiter to prepare two upper rooms and five or six refined side dishes. sit down.

Along the way, Qiu Shan has always been generous, but Li Wenxuan thought that there should be not much money left on Qiu Shan, so he said to Qiu Shan: "Brother Qiu, we don't have much money left, I don't think there is much need for that." If you have too many dishes, if you want too much, it’s a waste if you can’t finish it.”

Qiu Shan looked at Li Wenxuan and said, "Eat whatever you have, and you're afraid that you won't succeed if you're hungry in the future? Besides, have you forgotten that I originally planned to go to Lin'an, and now that I'm here, why don't you treat yourself well?" Not too bad."

Li Wenxuan had long forgotten that Qiu Shan came to Lin'an, and slowly said: "Then——after Brother Qiu arrives in Lin'an, will he continue to go south? Or will he just stay here?"

Qiu Shan replied: "I haven't thought about it yet. What's the matter? Are you afraid to go on the road alone? It doesn't matter. You stay here with me in Lin'an for a few days. If I am happy, brother, I will go south to the mountains." It’s not impossible to play in the water…”

"Okay!" When Li Wenxuan heard that Qiu Shan said that he might go south with him, he immediately became interested. Qiu Shan also smiled lightly, talking while eating, but his eyes rarely looked at Li Wenxuan.

There are seven or eight wooden tables in the center of the inn. The tables of Qiu Shan and Li Wenxuan are in the center, and there is a smaller table on the right side of the table against the wall. There are two men sitting there. For elegance.The one opposite the scholar was very different, with dark skin and a sloppy face. There were a few holes in the coarse cloth clothes, as if bitten by a mouse, but the loud voice and muscular body were indeed particularly conspicuous.It was still early, and there were not many people in the inn. The two were eating, drinking and talking, and Li Wenxuan and Qiu Shan could hear it clearly.

"Brother, it's still early anyway, tomorrow I will go to the ring to show off my skills and earn you a younger sibling, how about it?" The black man drank half a bowl of wine after speaking.

The scholar persuaded him from the side: "The boss made a special statement, so that we will not cause more troubles on the road. Besides, the Su family who recruited relatives in the martial arts competition is also a family of martial arts. It is inevitable that they will be injured if they use knives and guns in the ring." , no matter who it hurts, it's always bad."

The black man wiped the wine from the corner of his mouth, and said again: "Brother, what are you afraid of, you and I, brothers, have not been accompanied by a wife until now. If we marry the young lady of the Su family back, I am afraid that brother Hu will replace me." It's too late to be happy, but brother, if you value that chick, brother, I won't fight tomorrow, let brother go first." After the black man finished speaking, he brought another bowl of wine to the scholar.

"Don't talk nonsense, well, it's up to you, but you have to promise me that you will not hurt anyone, and you will not offend people from the Su family." The scholar said, and picked up the wine bowl.

"Okay, brother, don't worry, you just wait for me to marry the young lady of the Su family as my wife!" The black man drank another bowl of wine after he finished speaking.

The shop waiter happened to come over to add food to these two, and when he heard the black man said that he was going to fight, he interjected: "Oh, sir, you are going to the Su family's martial arts competition tomorrow to recruit relatives, I wish you success, my little one. Marry the beautiful lady of the Su family."

"Haha, this restaurant speaks nicely. Here, the wine master rewards you." The waiter flattered me comfortably, and the black man was happy. He filled a bowl of wine and handed it to the waiter.

"Thank you, guest officer, but the little ones can't drink much, not as big as you, the uncle. After this bowl, I'm afraid the young ones won't be able to work tonight."

"It's not fun, you can't drink, but what's the fun of working." The black man was not very happy when he saw that Xiao Er didn't drink, and he didn't try to persuade him anymore. He turned back and drank the bowl of wine himself.

"Young brother, don't take offense. My brother is just like that. He is straightforward, but he is very nice." The scholar said beside him.

The shop waiter replied: "Guest officer, you are too polite."

The scholar clasped his hands again and asked: "Second brother, my brother is going to participate in a martial arts competition to recruit relatives, but I don't know the rules very well. I don't know if my brother is clear and can tell me."

The waiter in the shop replied: "I know this is small. The Su family's martial arts competition invites relatives. If you want to enter the ring, you have to exchange ten taels of silver first. The ring is nine feet high. To enter the ring, you have to jump up with real skills. Even if you win the battle, you may not be able to marry the young lady of the Su family, you have to be good to the young lady, but even if you don't become the son-in-law, you won't suffer a loss. Anyone who wins will be sent by the Su family A thousand taels of silver is a good deal."

The little waiter in the store spit and stared, Li Wenxuan and Qiu Shan also listened clearly, Li Wenxuan thought it was a joke, his left ear went in and his right ear went out, Qiu Shan's eyeballs rolled around, as if he was thinking about something.

"I don't know who to compete with in the ring?" the scholar asked again.

"I'm not too sure about this little guy, it seems like he's competing with the eldest son of the Su family." The waiter scratched his head and said.

"Thank you, little brother, for a little thought." The scholar smiled, and rewarded the shop boy with a few pennies.

The shop waiter took the money, thanked you again and again, and said: "Thank you, guest officer, thank you guest officer, then you can eat first, and if you need anything, can you greet the little one?"

The scholar nodded to signal the waiter to back down, and continued to drink and eat.

Qiu Shan on this side touched Li Wenxuan with his right hand, told Li Wenxuan to put his ear close, and said in a low voice, "I want you to participate in the martial arts competition tomorrow to recruit relatives!"
