Tang Dynasty good brother-in-law

Chapter 20

What Liu Mu said was right, if he went back without knowing anything, it would be very dangerous, he might be beaten severely for several rounds.

But Li Dejian was not convinced either in words or in his heart.

"Little villager, what talent do you have?"

"Mu is not talented, let me say something modestly. Literature, martial arts, and intelligence are all above you, the noble man." Liu Mu smiled with him, but his mouth was not forgiving.

"Ha, hahaha. Who did you learn from?" Li Dejian laughed a few times.

"Why don't you show off your abilities." Liu Mu stretched out three fingers: "We have three competitions, literary competition, military competition, and intellectual competition."

"Why don't you dare?" Li Dejian was young and energetic, and he didn't want to be arranged here. This would make Liu Mu agitated, and he agreed without even turning his head.

"You lost, listen to my orders for three months." Liu Mu smiled and took another step forward, approaching Li Dejian and stretched out three fingers to offer the price.

Li Dejian stretched out his right hand: "If you lose, you will be my son's personal attendant for three months. High-five as an oath."

Liu Mu gave Li Dejian a high five.

"Come on, come on, come on, the rich will hold the money market, and the poor will hold the human market. The little villager Liu Mu will have three small competitions with this young man who is facing the wind from the tree, is imposing, and has both civil and military skills. The bet, Place your bet." Yuchi Gong yelled happily.

Tang people like to gamble.

Yu Chigong gave a look, and the old wolf brought a table and placed it in the courtyard: "Bet here."

"I'll buy myself to win, and I'll pay five for one." Li Dejian took out a gold leaf and slapped it heavily on the table.

This can be a big bet, the gold leaf is not in circulation in the market, and it is only convenient for wealthy families to carry it, this piece of gold leaf is almost worth the same money.Divided into large leaves and small leaves.According to the calculations of later generations, the large leaf is 37 grams, and the small leaf is [-] grams.

This is Li Dejian's Little Leaf. The market price is said to be half a penny, but the actual exchange rate is much higher than this price.

The second mother of the Liu family is definitely an excellent housekeeper, but at this moment, she didn't lose face to her younger brother at all.

After the Liu family's second wife dug out a clay pot from the soil, she took out a bunch of big coins from the pot and put them on the table: "One hundred big coins."

"Five big coins." Yu Chigong gently put the five copper coins on the table, looked from both sides, and moved to Li Dejian's side.

With a flick of Qin Qiong's fingertips, a copper coin fell from his hand onto the one hundred coins placed by Liu Ruyu.

The people who came to work did not have real labor, and they were all soldiers from Qin and Yuchi's mansions.None of them are poor, they can afford ten or twenty big money.

"Mr. Li is both civil and military. He must have learned a lot. You can make a comparison." Liu Mu looked humbly, squinting his eyes and looking around, looking for something that can deal with Li Dejian.

"Don't say I'm cheating on you, you just say how to compare, I'll just accept the move." Li Dejian responded proudly.

Qin Qiong shook her head slightly: "Young and frivolous, if you don't lose half of the competition first."

But Yu Chigong said: "For thesis, Dejian is instructed by a famous teacher. On martial arts, his family has profound knowledge. On wisdom, the pharmacist is extraordinary."

To put it simply, Yu Chigong's words mean that absolute strength can crush everything.

Liu Mu was already looking for props for the second-generation three-in-one just now, and now he has found the props, walked a few steps to the work place over there, picked a red brick and threw it to Li Dejian.

"Is this brick real?" Willow asked.

Li Dejian took the brick and looked around for a while, then returned the brick to Liu Mu: "Really."

Liu Mu took the brick, held the brick in his left hand with the palm up, and placed the back of his hand on the bluestone board, swung his right hand and chopped it down, and the brick broke with a sound.

"Master Li, please!" Liu Mu took a step back.

Li Dejian was dumbfounded. In his opinion, this slap can only be slapped at his mother's level.Just relying on the left hand to chop it off, this willow is too wicked.

"Da Lang is mighty." Sanniang, Siniang, and Wuniang had already started cheering from the side.

Yu Chigong and Qin Qiong looked at each other, with a smile on their faces.They are the real masters, that chop is not real kung fu, but ingenuity.

The brick was broken on the bluestone slab, but it looked like it was broken by hand.

Li Dejian took a deep breath, took a brick as well, and chopped it down with all his strength.But he didn't know the ingenuity, and the palm was placed on it, which increased the cushion, and the hand hurt when he chopped it, but the brick was still a whole piece.

Liu Mu clasped his hands on his chest: "Or, let Mr. Li choose the second question, and it's not fair for me to choose."

Liu Mu has made up his mind, he has a third game that he must win, so there is no pressure for Li Dejian to choose him in the second game, even if he loses, he will have a guarantee for the third game.

Li Dejian rubbed his still aching hand, very stiffly: "You choose."

"Si Niang, bring a pen and paper."

Liu Mu rolled up his sleeves and stretched out five fingers: "Five words, Mu will use these five words to compete with Mr. Li."

"Please!" Li Dejian clenched his fists tightly. He studied calligraphy and reading since childhood under the tutelage of famous scholars from Sanyuan.

Willow writes in pen: smoke lock pond willow
The writing is barely ok, in italics, and he is someone who has practiced copybooks.

But with just five words...

The crowd of onlookers were a little dazed. Could there be another mystery behind these five words.

Liu Zhengze had been standing beside Qin Qiong, and said to Qin Qiong in a low voice: "Mr. Mu Xiaolang has won."

Qin Qiong nodded slightly.

Yu Chigong didn't notice it, but he didn't say anything, he just watched Li Dejian's reaction.

Li Dejian put away his contempt, these five words are unusual, very unusual.Both positive and negative can be read, and it is not too difficult to be right, but it is very difficult to be right.

Li Dejian frowned, and his face began to turn red.

A quarter of an hour later, Li Dejian's face turned pale, and sweat began to flow down his forehead.

"This question is unfair. This round is a draw." Qin Qiong suddenly stood up and said, "Xiao Mu, how can you prove that this question originated from you. So this is a draw."

Since Qin Qiong came out to speak, Liu Mu naturally said nothing, he had a guarantee for the third game.

After Qin Qiong finished speaking, he retreated under the tree, and Yuchi Gong hurriedly asked: "Are you biased against Dejian?"

"No. Firstly, Dejian has already conceded in his heart, secondly, I want to see Xiaomu's battle of wits, and thirdly..." Qin Qiong didn't continue, but just swept a big tree in the distance with the corner of his eyes.

Yuchi Gong understood, Zhang Chuchen's people were watching secretly.

Li Dejian covered his head, he really used his brain too much, he was dizzy now.Qin Qiong's proposal was regarded as a relief for him, but he also had arrogance in his heart, so he didn't say thanks, and he didn't answer the words stubbornly.

Liu Mu pointed at the table at this moment: "For the third game of wits, we will fight with tableware. Here is the paper." Liu Mu quickly loaded the paper into a three-inch square, and then picked up the pen holder: "Over there If there is bamboo, we each cut a piece of bamboo to make a simple pen holder. Then fill it with water, and use a piece of paper to prevent the water from leaking out of the upside-down bamboo tube.”
