The warrior now had 90% trust in Li Xian and 10% doubt. However, since Li Xian said that this was the only way to survive this calamity, the warrior could only believe it and immediately began to prepare.
Li Xian had his own reasons for suggesting using Hua Gu as bait to lure the snake out. He had no idea who those murderers were. If he only reminded the samurai to be vigilant, there was only a way to be a thief for a thousand days, but not to be on guard for a thousand days.
What if something happened again?
Moreover, he couldn't let Samurai Shura witness this matter with his own eyes. How could he believe his own words? If something happened to Hua Gu again, or because of the butterfly effect, the other party's target changed to someone else, and he wasn't by his side, how would he deal with the aftermath?
As for letting Aunt Little Light act as bait, there was naturally some danger. However, Wu Shi Yao was Aunt Hua's biological father. He was more protective of Aunt Hua than an outsider like him. The warrior was the governor of Lizhou, a marquis of a region. How could he not have a few real skills around him?
Attacking an expert?
Only in wuxia novels and folk legends would there be a saying that the truly outstanding masters were outside the court and in the martial world. In fact, there were a few peerless martial arts masters who were not used by the imperial court or hired by the border officials to protect them.
Hand? They had worked hard to train their martial arts just to be proud of the forest and decay with the vegetation?
Speaking of the Tang Empire's peerless masters, Li Xian couldn't help but think of legendary figures like Nie Yinniang, Aunt Gongsun, and Kongkong 'er. How many of them had nothing to do with the imperial court? Oh right, there was also the unborn immortal poet Li Bai that he mentioned in prison. Li Bai
His swordsmanship was also outstanding. It was said that Li Bai's master was the world's number one swordsman, General Pei Minpei.
Li Xian put on the soft armor given to him by the warrior and stood in the corridor, thinking that this was still the early days of Li Shimin. General Pei Min should not have been born yet, right? However, he didn't know what kind of image the expert guards raised by Wu Shi would have.
Just as he was thinking, two teenagers who were fat and thin and had similar looks and expressions walked towards him from the corridor. One of them had a sword hanging on his left shoulder, while the other had a sword hanging on his right shoulder. The apricot yellow tassel of the sword was fluttering in the wind. The youth on the left leaned against the outside.
She lifted his apricot yellow sword tassel and brushed it against his face.
Thus, the young swordsman, who had a steady pace, a solemn gaze, and the demeanor of a great grandmaster, gradually showed an impatient expression. He raised his hand hatefully and threw the tassel hard. For a moment, the demeanor of a great grandmaster was gone.
The two walked to Li Xian's side and sized him up, their eyes full of hostility. Li Xian was baffled. He didn't know these two people, nor did he have any grudges against them, so why did they look disgusted when they saw him?
However, to these two young swordsmen, they were martial artists who were proficient in sword techniques and " mages " who were proficient in spells. They were natural enemies and competitors.
The young swordsman on the right looked Li Xian up and down, and a faint smile appeared on his face.""You are the first disciple of Zhongnan Hermit Su Youdao, Li Xian?”
Li Xian had accidentally heard of such an extraordinary expert, so he pretended to be his master in order to raise his status. In fact, he was very guilty. When he heard these two people ask, he didn't know if they knew Su Youdao, so he humbly cupped his hands and said,
"Yes, I am!"
The young swordsman on the left was blown to the face by the sword tassel again. He brushed the tassel away impatiently and glared at Li Xian."Look at you, you're not doing well! I heard that your official occupation is only a beekeeper on the back mountain?”
Li Xian smiled. Although I have learned a few dharmic arts from my master, I still have mortal desires and do not wish to enter the mountain to cultivate. Moreover, Jiaci needed me to serve him, so I returned to my hometown and took beekeeping as my profession.”
The two young swordsmen heard that he had always been very humble, and their expressions softened a little. The young swordsman on the left cupped his hands at him and said casually,"I am Li Bohao!" He then pointed at the young man beside him.”
" So it's our family," Li Xian said with a smile." My surname is Li too." I didn't expect the two of you to become famous swordsmen at such a young age.”
"Hey, don't try to get close to me!"
Li Boxuan reached out to stop him.”
Li Bohao puffed out his chest proudly.""We two brothers are from the Li Clan of Longxi!”
"You didn't see it, did you?" Li Boxuan asked. Although it was said that people depended on clothes, Buddhas depended on gold. However, as swordsmen, we have to keep a low profile, have nothing to wear, and be clean and sharp. Only then can we come and go as fast as flying, and our swordsmanship is sharp.
He won't come out."
F * ck, I can't tell?
Li Xian looked speechlessly at the pair of clowns. Their clothes were indeed very simple, without any fancy colors or embroidery. However, their clothes were made of fish-tooth silk that only nobles could wear and only had the money to buy. There were even dark patterns on their collars and sleeves.
It would take two years just to make such a piece of clothing.
Also, the pair of Hu style shoes on their feet were obviously made of high-quality calf leather. It took at least half a year to make a pair, and the price of a pair of boots was probably two large coins. Their work was equivalent to the income of ordinary people who did not eat or drink for three years.
This is called keeping a low profile?
Li Bohao said," There are many laymen in the world who judge people by their clothes and appearance. Since we are from the Li family of Longxi, we can't be looked down upon by others. We don't care about ourselves, but if we humiliate our family background, we will bring shame to our ancestors.”
Li Boxuan said proudly," So, we only inlaid some cat eyes on the belt as ornaments. Look, look, my cat eyes are purple!"”
The two brothers had probably shown off more than once. They stuck out their hips at the same time and showed Li Xian their especially flashy belts. The cat's eye gems on them were not just one piece, but a dense mass that almost blinded Li Xian.
Titanium alloy dog eyes.
This was the ultimate skill of a rich man! Li Xian was still a country bumpkin and couldn't learn! However, Li Xian immediately fell in love with the two brothers. Although they were a little overconfident, they were not annoying. Their temperaments were actually more straightforward and interesting.
Whether it was in his previous life or this life, Li Xian hated people who didn't say anything and didn't mean anything. If you wanted to know his emotions, you had to observe and guess with your heart. Li Xian didn't even bother to find a girlfriend like Lin Daiyu.
Sentimental sister, let alone get along with others, tired or not tired!
Li Xian smiled and said,"You two are indeed interesting people!"”
Li Boxuan looked at his brother in confusion."Isn't he Yaren? How is it interesting? What do you mean interesting?"
Li Bohao touched his chin and muttered,"I think he's referring to interesting people."”
The studious Li Boxuan was about to get to the bottom of it with Li Xian when the door opened, and Wu Shi Hui walked out holding Hua Gu's hand. Hua Gu was fat and round like a little panda. Li Xian couldn't help but stare at her.
"What…what happened?”
Seeing Li Xian's surprise, the warrior smiled knowingly.""Just in case. For a time, he really had no way to find a soft armor that his daughter could wear. He could only find some materials to make soft armor and stuff them between his robes!”
Hua Gu pouted and complained angrily to Li Xian,""Father gave me a four-layer vest and three layers on my legs. It's so heavy! He couldn't even walk. It's made of leather and golden silk. I can't breathe anymore ~"
As Aunt Hua spoke, she even took a few exaggerated gasps.
The golden thread of the soft armor vest that Hua Gu mentioned was not made of gold. It was a kind of soft armor that was woven with fine metal wire and worn under clothes. It was a bit like the mini brand of European chain mail. It was a high-end product. Ordinary official schools would definitely wear it.
She couldn't afford it. Gu Hua was now wearing more than one layer of bandages. No wonder it was so difficult for her to walk.
Li Xian didn't know whether to laugh or cry as he said to the warrior,""Viceroy, this won't do! If Hua Gu went out like this, she would probably be seen through immediately.”
Li Bohao and Li Boxuan also puffed out their chests proudly and sneered,""Uncle, why do you have to do this? With us two brothers here, who can hurt the second miss?”
The warrior looked at the two of them and immediately flew into a rage."You two idiots, I told you to dress up plainly and pretend to be ordinary servants. Now that you're dressed like this, which blind person would treat you as servants? Go back and change!"
"Oh!" The two Li brothers felt their chests collapse as they dejectedly turned around and left.
[Note: During the Tang Dynasty, older brothers were used to addressing each other as brothers. They would address each other as brothers according to their ranks. They would even address each other as brothers. However, I won't copy such ancient customs. It's better to take care of the understanding and habits of modern people.]
