Fu Song

Chapter 56
Zhang Cheng and Luo Gang walked out of the door, and at a glance they saw the two brothers Xiao Ding and Xiao Cheng standing under the shade of a tree outside with their horses.

Zhang Cheng's face changed slightly, but he greeted them with a smile, clasped his fists and saluted the two of them: "Xian Kunzhong's visit to the humble house is really full of brilliance!"

Xiao Cheng smiled and said, "Zi Ming, I brought my brother here without your consent. Would you mind?"

"How could it be?" Zhang Cheng shook his head and said, "My brother's name is so familiar to me. Even in the taverns and teahouses in Bianliang City, there are many storytellers who have made up the story of brother Changqing beheading Liaogou. In terms of drama, I have listened to several different versions, brother. But every time I hear it again, my blood is still boiling, and I wish I could replace it with my body!"

Xiao Ding bowed slightly and said: "Zi Ming is joking. The matter of war is actually very boring. If you really want to fight like those storytellers say, there are not enough people to die."

Xiao Cheng smiled and said: "When I was out with my brother for tea, I also heard it once, that storyteller said that my brother was more than ten feet tall and carried a large knife weighing more than one hundred kilograms. Killing people is like chopping vegetables. Chopping melons, but almost made us squirt all the tea out."

"A big sword with a weight of more than [-] kilograms is good if you can lift it up, and can you cut people?" Zhang Cheng also laughed: "If you can dance a weapon weighing [-] kilograms, you are already a great hero."

"I can't do it anyway!" Xiao Ding said with a smile: "My spear only weighs eight pounds and three taels."

Several people looked at each other and laughed.

In the midst of laughter, Xiao Ding looked at Luo Gang and said, "I haven't seen you for five or six years, but Yuting, you have changed a lot. If I knew you would be my brother-in-law now, I should have beaten you a few more times. "

Luo Gang shuddered, and some bad memories came back to his mind: "Brother, now I have changed my mind and become a new person. Chongwen can testify to this, and Ziming can also testify for me."

Zhang Cheng looked at Luo Gang gloatingly, and said, "Brother Changqing, I can prove this for Yuting, since the two of you had a marriage contract, the former prodigal son of flowers has never gone out again. I'm sloppy, and I've been invited many times, but he's flatly rejected it. I still admire him for this."

Xiao Ding nodded, patted Luo Yuting on the shoulder and said, "I'm different from the second child. He likes to play tricks and convince people with reason. My favorite thing to do is to shake his fists and convince people with force. The second child said After you've changed your mind, within two or three disciplines, you will definitely become a jinshi."

Xiao Ding turned his head to look at Xiao Cheng, Xiao Cheng nodded, affirming.

"In this way, you are also a firm-minded person." Xiao Ding continued: "But such a firm-minded person is also easy to be self-righteous and self-righteous. If you marry my little sister in the future and treat her badly, Even if she suffered a little bit of grievance, I would call at the door. At that time, I didn't care whether you were a jinshi or not. Even if you became a husband at that time, I would still dare to go to your house to beat people and set fire to them. Do not believe?"

Luo Gang wiped the cold sweat from his face, what kind of people are these two brothers!
"Two, two, today's business is me and brother Chongwen. We can talk about Yuting later." Seeing his friend was sweating and embarrassed, Zhang Cheng jumped out at the right time to help him out: "Chongwen, let's go in?"

"Of course!" Xiao Cheng laughed.

Zhang Cheng looked at Xiao Ding.

Xiao Ding laughed: "Don't worry, today is your agreement with your second brother. I just came to see the fun, not to support him. No matter how badly he loses, I won't shoot."

Zhang Cheng smiled and said, "With the words of Brother Changqing, I can do it with confidence and boldness."

On the side of the school grounds, a coffee table had been set up long ago, with a few elm wood circles on the left and right, a maid knelt on a soft cushion, and was concentrating on cooking tea, while Xiao Ding and Luo Gangfen sat on both sides, but their eyes were fixed on Xiao Cheng and Zhang Cheng in the school grounds.

"I used to know that Chongwen could fight, but I really didn't know that he was able to fight Zhang Ziming!" Luo Gang sighed: "But looking at Zhang Ziming's serious attitude these days, I also know Chongwen. level."

"Oh, Zhang Ziming has made a lot of preparations in the past few days?" Xiao Ding picked up a cup of tea and looked at the maid who was making tea. "Good work."

"Thank you for the compliment Xiao Tongzhi!" The maid smiled sweetly.

Seeing Xiao Ding's unconcerned appearance, Luo Gang's heart jumped suddenly, "Is Big Brother so sure that Chongwen will win? Zhang Ziming is not even close to women, and he has not drunk alcohol these days. One drop, concentrate on preparing for this event!"

"Does it matter whether they win or lose?" Xiao Ding chuckled: "It's just a drink for Fan Lou!"

"There's still face!" Luo Gang said loudly.

Xiao Ding curled his lips: "It's just Zhang Ziming's face. If the second brother loses, he loses, what's the big deal. He is a scholar, and he lost to Zhang Ziming, who practiced martial arts and kung fu all day long. What's so surprising? ? It's like you asked Zhang Ziming to compare with his second brother to write an article, will that Zhang Ziming pick up the pen?"

"This..." Luo Gang suddenly choked.

Don't mention the pen, as long as Zhang Ziming hears this test method, he will definitely turn his head and leave.

"So, the second brother dares to stand here today. In fact, he is already invincible." Xiao Ding said with a smile: "So what does it matter if you lose? I can't say it spreads out, everyone has to praise him. Both civil and military. If he lasts longer, I am afraid that Zhang Ziming will not have the face to go out and brag about his victory, and in turn worry that we will go out and talk!"

"That's right!" Luo Gang then reacted.

Xiao Cheng couldn't help but scolded Xiao Cheng for being cunning.It turns out that no matter what, he will not lose!

Unless Zhang Cheng overthrew Xiao Er with three out of five, otherwise, even if Zhang Cheng wins in the end, the money for the drink will probably fall on him.

In the school field, Xiao Cheng and Zhang Cheng, who had changed into two shorts, stood opposite each other.

"Don't hit me in the face!" Xiao Cheng said, "I have to go to school every other day. If Master Cen sees the injury on his face, I'm afraid my palm will suffer again. This old man hates the courage of every man the most. Yes. Solving problems with brute force is what he disdains the most."

"No problem!" Zhang Cheng agreed very readily.

The two clasped their fists and bowed, but then they each took a few steps back, their knees bent slightly, their upper body leaned forward a little, each clenched their fists, their four eyes stared at each other, and slowly turned in circles.

Xiao Ding held a cup of tea and sipped it slowly, looking at the two people below with interest, and even the girl who was making the tea was attracted to the past, not to mention the Zhangfu family members standing outside.

Like Xiao Mansion, in Zhang Mansion, most of these servants are veterans who have retired from the military.One by one is also an expert in fighting.

If you really want to say layman, there is only one Luo Yuting, plus this tea-making girl, the two of them can only watch the fun.

Sure enough, after seeing the two going around in four or five circles, the girl who was nervous already felt boring, and lowered her head to play with her tea set again.

"Brother, what are they doing, why haven't they started?" Luo Gang asked.

"Do you think they want to learn how to fight the gangsters on the street? This is a martial arts competition!" Xiao Ding said casually: "The competition is about patience, endurance, and observation. Once the enemy's flaws are discovered, they will immediately take advantage of it ."

"What if the two sides can't find each other's flaws?"

Xiao Ding smiled: "Then it's almost like a fight with a local ruffian. You don't care about your demeanor. In the end, the one with more strength and skill will win."

"Brother, you are fighting on the battlefield. Are you fighting with masters or fighting with hooligans?" Luo Yuting suddenly became interested and asked.

Xiao Ding was stunned, turned his head, looked at Luo Yuting, thought for a moment, and said, "Before the fight, it was a battle of masters, but it was an all-round contest between the generals of the two sides, the weather, the geography, the people's hearts, the morale. , logistics and even the direction of the wind have to be taken into account, but once the fight really starts, it will be almost like a fight with a hooligan. It’s just that when the two sides actually fight, the outcome is actually mostly doomed.”

"Didn't it say that the brave who meet in a narrow path wins?"

"You said that it was a narrow road meeting, so it would naturally be a chaotic battle with no preparations for both sides. In fact, whether the brave will win or not, I can't say for sure. At this time, the equipment and morale of both sides are decisive. If the equipment of the two sides is too different, it is useless for you to be brave. You will just die a little more heroically."

Luo Gang was stunned when he heard it. This is a little different from what he usually thinks.

"Brother's statement reminds me of a joke that Chongwen told me. He asked me, what should I do if I am alone and encounter a big tiger? I can't escape, and I can't win if I fight. , I thought about it, and there was only one dead end."

Xiao Ding smiled: "I guess the second brother will make you yell at the tiger, openly challenge, for example, shout: Come eat me, come eat me!"

Luo Gang blushed: "Chongwen did say that. He said that he could die like a hero and have dignity."

Xiao Ding laughed.

"Brother, is this also the case on the battlefield?"

Xiao Ding thought about it seriously, and said, "If there is still a chance, then naturally, we have to find a way to escape. Save yourself first, then you can find an opportunity to take revenge. If it is really difficult and there is only one way to go, then it is natural to have to take revenge. If you fight to the death, even if you can't beat your opponent, it's not bad to bite the opponent's flesh down."

Luo Gang suddenly shuddered.

While the two of them were talking, the next two people had already turned around in seventeen or eight circles. They probably felt that they couldn't find any flaws in the other party.

The sound of banging fists and feet rang out on the school grounds.
