Chaos in the Eastern Jin Dynasty

Chapter 51: Martial Arts Competition

Guan Ziyang took the Qinglong Yanyue Knife and looked at it carefully, and found that after the outer layer of pig iron rust was cleaned, the material inside was indeed not like pig iron. Looking at the blade nearly one centimeter wide, Guan Ziyang shook his head, good guy, this thing can be used as a knife. Hammered.

I haven't learned "Leng Yan Saw" yet, so I'm not in a hurry to reforge it.

If there is a chance to meet Ji Kang in the future, I will find a way to let him remake the Qinglong Yanyue Dao, this is Qinglong Yanyue Dao!
Thinking about holding it in the future and riding a war horse to kill the enemy in the battlefield, I feel that the thief is so fucking cool!This is an obsession!
Dao couldn't do it, but he promised to play the piano with Wei Yiqing, and he was too embarrassed to leave.

When I first came to Weijiabao, I entered the study room, which was equivalent to being left out in the cold. Now I am still in the study room, but it is Wei Xuan who accompany me personally, and the servant girl makes tea, and the servant beats her legs...

What is the style of the Wei and Jin Dynasties, I think it is no different from modern times, this is called the rich have distant relatives in the mountains, and the poor have no one to ask in the downtown area!
Staying in Wei's house for two days was not fruitless. Wei's new gentry had been a member of the Wei family for two years, and Wubao already had forging workshops, breweries, dyeing workshops and other processing industries.

The planting industry is no longer a single grain and wheat, but orchards, breeding, fishery, flower gardens... all over the mountains and plains.There are more than a hundred tenants in the family, and there are groups of slaves.For this reason, Wei Xuan built a new Wubao behind Wubao, which is still under construction and has not yet been completed.

Guan Ziyang went around to observe and study in the past two days. The manors in the Eastern Jin Dynasty had a deep economic background. It was a two-day inspection for him to renovate the Guanjiabao in the future and build a large manor like Xie Lingyun's "Mountain Dwelling Fu".

On the third day, the referee Wei Yiqing had invited finally arrived, which meant that the competition was about to begin.

The referee was none other than Wei Yiqing's master, Ruan Xian.

That's right, it was Ruan Xian, one of the Seven Sages of the Bamboo Grove.

When Guan Ziyang heard this name, he almost sat down on the ground.

Ge Hong once said: "In addition to strength to break through the first rank and become a saint, you also need the opportunity of 'natural disasters and man-made disasters'. It is rare to meet one person in a hundred years, so the chance of you meeting a semi-sage in the future is very small!"

But are there so many half saints in this world now?

It feels everywhere. He has only been in this world for a few years, and he has already met two, one is Tao Yuanming, one is Ruan Xian, and the other is Ji Kang who lives in seclusion in Qiao County, which is only heard but does exist... …

Master lived in seclusion in Huanglong Temple for many years and never appeared, has he derailed from this world?Or is it because the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties were too chaotic, and there were too many natural and man-made disasters, which caused the current half-saint to become a disaster?
Ruan Xian, who looked like a future birthday star, smiled kindly when he saw Guan Ziyang, and said, "The little guy is my good disciple's favorite? Well, he is indeed a good-looking talent, hahaha, I'm sure it's my master!"

Wei Yiqing made a long and shy voice: "Master—father—" and then Nuonuo said: "I haven't agreed yet, I have to beat him in the competition."

"What! You little bastard, you only marry her if my apprentice wins you? Impossible, absolutely impossible!" Ruan Xian said angrily, blowing his white beard.

Wei Yiqing became anxious, and hurriedly said: "Master, why, we have already agreed, you don't often say 'Speak out, pour out water', do you want your disciple to become a man who does not believe what he says?"

Ruan Xian quickly patted Wei Yiqing, and comforted him: "Oh, good boy, I'm doing this for your own good! Because you can't beat him!"

Wei Yiqing said: "It's not even a match yet, how can I know it won't work? I have practiced piano hard for the past two years, and he must have practiced martial arts for the past two years. Otherwise, he would not have such kung fu, so I will definitely win."

Ruan Xian shook his head and sighed: "Oh, let's compare. I told you that Qin is your Wu and Wu is your Qin. It's been two years, and you still haven't realized it..."

However, it was different when these words reached Guan Ziyang's ears, because Ge Hong had told him that the only condition for a semi-sage to become a saint was to 'enlighten himself'.

The Tao here refers to the orbit or track of everything in the world, and it can also be said to be the law of the change and movement of things, and it can even be interpreted as the science of later generations.

Is Ruan Xian trying to train Wei Yiqing into a saint?This began to teach her to enlightenment, and she chose Yiqin to enlightenment.

When I first asked my master to teach me how to understand the Tao, Ge Hong said: "If you want to understand the Tao, you must first find your Dao heart, otherwise the innate essence in your body will always be just for display..."

"Wei Yiqing already has the Dao heart—the qin?" Guan Ziyang's heart was full of turmoil, and then he thought of a suspicious point: "Why did Ruan Xian say she couldn't win me before, and he hadn't heard my qin sound before?" .”

There were many doubts in my heart, but I couldn't open my mouth to ask Ruan Xian.

Surrounded by everyone from the Wei family, this contest of piano skills has finally begun, and the loser will lose the qualification to choose his own marriage.

Wei Yiqing came out first. At this moment, she was sitting in front of the piano, without a veil to cover her face, her beautiful face was unobstructed. With her hands on the strings of the piano, her whole body seemed to be bathed in a faint layer of sunshine.

It is so bright and moving.

Guan Ziyang said in his heart: "This is so fucking irresistible..."

The sound of the piano came out leisurely, telling her story.

Guan Ziyang discovered that she lingered her internal energy around her fingers, and every time she moved the strings, a trace of internal energy would wind down her fingers, wrap around the strings, and resonate with them.

"Can you still play the qin like this? This is the so-called Wu is the qin, and the qin is the martial arts?"

The sound of the piano is sometimes bleak, sometimes lonely, sometimes passionate, and sometimes stubborn...

Both the depression of the boudoir and the ambition to make progress, everyone on the sidelines were intoxicated by it, and Guan Ziyang had to sigh: "It sounds so good..."

Ruan Xian put his hand on his beard and nodded repeatedly, seeming to approve of his apprentice's performance very much.

After the song, it's Guan Ziyang's turn.

In fact, Guan Ziyang doesn't pay much attention to winning or losing. It's impossible to say that he doesn't like Wei Yiqing at all. Which normal man can refuse the initiative of this kind of woman.

The reason why he wanted to win was because of the promise he had made to Qing Chan to marry her.

It is also because of the respect for Wei Yiqing, I don't know if she made the decision to marry Guan Ziyang because of the order of the Wei family, or because she cares about the pros and cons for the family.

A master of the lower realm of the second-rank internal strength and martial arts mastering the secluded realm, not to mention the Wei family of the low-ranking gentry, even the middle-class gentry, the high-class gentry are flocking to it.

"Clearly..."

As the zither sounded, Guan Ziyang followed Wei Yiqing's example, lingering the innate energy in his body around his fingertips.

During the playing, the congenital energy flows down the stream and winds on the strings. As the strings vibrate, the congenital energy resonates with them, and the sound of the piano seems to have the ability to directly hit people's hearts.

Guan Ziyang thought: "I don't know if this "Chrysanthemum Terrace" can do it."

At the end of the song, Wei Yiqing was already in tears. Before the referee Ruan Xian could speak, she stood up and said, "Guan Gongzi is unparalleled in piano skills. Yiqing worships me. I lost." After speaking, she turned around and wiped her tears with her sleeve, covering her face He ran to his boudoir.

Guan Ziyang froze in place, ah...

Ruan Xian came over and gave him a hard look, and said, "You are not good at fighting!"

Then, together with Mrs. Wei and others, they chased Wei Yiqing, as the only bloodline descendant of the Wei family, with the jewel in his palm and the flesh and blood of his heart, seeing Wei Yiqing so sad, how could he not be anxious.

Guan Ziyang couldn't argue with his words, he thought to himself: "How can I win without martial arts? Didn't I just use Jay Chou's song? And I didn't cheat! She also used her internal strength!"

Wei Xuan hurriedly came over and said, "Mr. Guan, your qin music is really superb. Even the old man can recall the past when he fell in love with his first love."

Guan Ziyang didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and replied, "Miss Yiqing?"

Wei Xuan said: "It's okay, kid, it will be fine in a few days, Mr. Guan, why don't you stay with me for a few more days, didn't you say that you are very interested in wine making? I'll take you to have a look again?"

Guan Ziyang hurriedly said: "Not Wei Shibo, since the matter here is over and I have been bothering you for a long time, I will go."

Guan Ziyang and Guan Guiying rode back to Guanjiawu Fort on horseback, carrying the intact Qinglong Yanyue Saber on their backs.

Along the way, Guan Ziyang was thinking: "The Wei family has Ruan Xian's backing, how could they be afraid of the Chang and Li families? Why do they always feel like they've been cheated!"
