Chapter 155: After the famous general
Chapter 155: After the Famous General
Qucheng, the capital of Dalu, stands the majestic Dasima Mansion in the southeast corner with high walls.
In the inner courtyard of the Grand Sima Mansion, there is a slightly empty martial arts training ground. At this moment, Sima Yun was practicing sword skills in the martial arts field. The huge martial arts training ground was left with only the brothers Zhang Xi and Zhang Han as a substitute.
Sima Yun made a sword like the wind. Whether it was a vertical or horizontal slash, every time he swung, he exuded a powerful force.
The brothers Zhang Xi and Zhang Hang were born in a martial arts family since childhood. The great-grandfather of the cousin Zhang Chenghu was once a border general. When Zhang Chenghu was young, he was inspiring to study in Yuecheng. He was able to achieve success in the Warriors in the Earth, and his cultivation level was also quite good. He was famous in the northwest of Dalu.
Under the influence of Zhang Chenghu, most of the descendants of later generations abandoned literature and followed the military. Therefore, most of the Zhang family in the northwest were in iron-horse uniforms, and Zhang Xi and Zhang Han were not included.
At this moment, the two brothers Zhang Xi and Zhang Chiang were on the left and right. Facing Sima Yun's quick and sensible attack methods, the two of them were only concerned with holding a knife to resist, and were forced to retreat repeatedly by Sima Yun's tight sword technique.
Sima Yun suddenly shouted: "Does it!"
Then they saw that the brothers Zhang Xi and Zhang Chiang were pushed to the situation by Sima Yun's dark blue fighting spirit. The two brothers screamed, then frowned, and climbed up from the ground.
The two quickly patted the dust on their bodies, bowed to Sima Yun and fisted to congratulate him: "Congratulations to the young master for his further skill."
Sima Yun slowly raised his arm and looked at the dark blue fighting spirit condensed in the palm of his hand. A look of excitement appeared on his face. Sima Yun looked at Zhang Xi and Zhang Chiang excitedly and said happily: "Zhang Xi, Zhang Chiang, come and help me take a look. Has this young master already reached the peak level of the intermediate level?"
Zhang Xi and Zhang Chiang looked at each other and nodded at Sima Yun. Zhang Xi then took a step forward and respectfully clasped his fists at Sima Yun and said, "Congratulations to the young master for entering the peak intermediate level. He will soon be expected to break through the bottleneck and become a senior earth warrior."
As soon as Zhang Xi finished speaking, Zhang Chiang hurriedly took a step forward and clasped his fists and said, "My cousin is right, the young master's cultivation is diligent and quick, so my cousin and I are really envious."
After hearing the two brothers' words, Sima Yun immediately put the big knife in his hand back on the weapon stand, and then patted Zhang Xi and Zhang Chiang's shoulders, and smiled and said, "You two brothers are not bad at all. I believe that with your abilities, you will be able to reach the level of intermediate peak in no time."
Zhang Ying still bowed and clasped his fists and said, "Thank you to the young master's good words, my brothers must work harder."
Sima Yun nodded to the two of them, then squinted his eyes and looked up at the sun in the sky, and slowly said, "After lunch, after exercise, I feel much more comfortable all over my body."
Zhang Xi nodded and said, "What the young master said is very true."
After listening to Sima Yun's words, Zhang Han hesitated for a moment and suddenly said, "Do you want us brothers to practice with the young master for a while? I was still a little confused when the young master used the moves just now. I thought about it for a long time but couldn't figure it out."
Zhang Xi, who was standing beside Zhang Chiang, suddenly heard Zhang Chiang's words, and immediately kicked Zhang Chiang gently.
Zhang Jian was kicked by his cousin for no reason and was confused. He couldn't help but turn his head slightly to look at Zhang Huan, but saw Zhang Huan keep blinking at him.
Sima Yun, who was wiping the sweat beads on his forehead, saw this scene inadvertently, and immediately coughed lightly and said with a smile: "Okay, Zhang Xi, don't make things difficult for Zhang Han."
As soon as Sima Yun said this, Zhang Xi and Zhang Kan immediately stood up straight. Both of them felt embarrassed, and they both lowered their heads slightly, without saying anything, like a child who had done something wrong, quietly waiting for Sima Yun's reprimand.
When Sima Yun saw the two brothers in this way, he suddenly felt interesting. He couldn't help but suddenly covered his mouth and burst into laughter.
The two Zhang Xi and Zhang Hang, who were still lying down, heard Sima Yun's laughter and felt relieved in an instant. The two looked up and stared at Sima Yun, all of whom were confused.
Sima Yun glanced at the two brothers and suddenly said, "Look at what you two brothers are so scared? Zhang Dan has been practicing here this afternoon. The sword techniques used by the young master just now are the Protestant moves that the uncle used before leaving. The young master of the Ming Dynasty asked you to read carefully again, and he was a little tired today."
Zhang Jian hurriedly clasped his fists and said, "Young Master is intent, I'm just curious for a moment, and I'm really a little too much."
Sima Yun laughed a few times and said, "You brothers and I are fellow townsmen and are highly recommended by my uncle. I have long regarded you as relatives. Don't be so restrained in front of me."
As soon as Sima Yun said this, Zhang Xi and Zhang Kan looked at each other. After a few seconds of silence, they both looked at Sima Yun with gratitude. Then they bowed to Sima Yun again and said in unison: "My brothers and I are willing to go through fire and water for the young master in this life."
Sima Yun laughed happily when he heard this, and then patted Zhang Xi and Zhang Hang on the backs, and said with a smile: "Since that's the case, how about the three of us call each other brothers in the future?"
"No, no, no!"
When Zhang Dan heard this, he was immediately happy and wanted to nod and agree, but Zhang Ying took it first.
After hearing Zhang Xi's polite refusal to Sima Yun, Zhang Chien was immediately confused. He turned his head and stared at Zhang Xi, and asked with confusion: "What does cousin mean? The young master condescendingly surrendering to the friendship between my brothers and my brothers is a great blessing for my brothers, but why not?"
Sima Yun immediately looked at Zhang Xi with a puzzled look. Zhang Xi's refusal made Sima Yun feel extremely unhappy, but Sima Yun's face retained the smile below. However, the smile on Zhang Xi's face was too far-fetched, so that Sima Yun's smile at this moment gave people an unreal feeling.
After a moment of silence, Sima Yun suddenly said, "Yes, what do Brother Zhang Ying mean? Could it be that he disliked me, Sima Yun, for being weak in his skills?"
Upon hearing this, Zhang Xikang knelt on his knees and quickly explained: "Young Master, don't misunderstand me. My Zhang Xikang and my cousin Zhang Chiang were originally humble. Fortunately, the Grand Sima and the Young Master loved me and left my brothers in the Grand Sima Mansion and stayed with the Young Master every day. My brother was already very content.
Now the young master is willing to demote himself and want to be called to my brothers. My brothers are grateful and cry. He goes through fire and water for the young master, but he never dares to call him brothers."
After listening to what his cousin Zhang Xi said, Zhang Chian suddenly felt that his cousin was right, and hurriedly knelt down on the ground and said, "My cousin is right, the young master has a noble status, so my brothers dare not rush to the top."
Seeing this, Sima Yun suddenly burst into laughter. He quickly helped Zhang Xi and Zhang Hang up and said with a smile: "The great-grandfather of your brothers, Zhang Chenghu, was once a famous Northwest general in my Dajia. How could a famous general say that he was humble after all?"
As soon as Sima Yun said this, Zhang Xi and Zhang Chiang were shocked. The two looked at each other and shook their heads at each other.
After a while, Zhang Dan couldn't help but clasp his fists and asked, "How did the young master know that our brothers are the famous Northwest general Zhang Chenghu?"
Sima Yun smiled and patted the two of them on their shoulders, saying, "That day, when uncle handed you brothers to this young master, he privately confirmed the identities of the two of you brothers and the famous generals. He just saw that you had been hiding something, so uncle told me not to expose the identities of the famous generals."
"I see."
"The Grand Sima is intent."
Zhang Xizhe and Zhang Han nodded repeatedly, muttering to themselves.
The two brothers were stunned for a moment, and Zhang Huan suddenly smiled bitterly and shook his head, clasped his fists and saluted at Sima Yun and said, "Young Master, I don't know anything. Since my great-grandfather returned from the west, it is difficult for anyone who is as glorious as his great-grandfather. His descendants are unfilial and his family is in decline.
My father once warned us that if we do not have the ability to become famous, we should not mention the status of the famous general outside, which will ruin the reputation of our great-grandfather."
Zhang Hani nodded repeatedly when he heard Zhang Xi's words. After hearing Zhang Xi's words, Sima Yun sighed and said, "So that's it! But you two brothers are accustomed to this young master and my brothers. I will not mention your life experience."
Seeing that Sima Yun was persistent, Zhang Huan no longer refused Sima Yun's kindness. Seeing that his cousin acquiesced, Zhang Jian immediately clasped his fists at Sima Yun and said, "My brothers and I swear to be loyal to the young master from today."
Sima Yun laughed loudly, then patted Zhang Dan's hand and said, "I have already said it just now. The three of us will be called brothers in the future. I have checked your household registration files. Both of you brothers are younger than me. From now on, I will be your eldest brother. Zhang Dan is the second, and you, Zhang Dan, will be the third."
When Zhang Xi and Zhang Hang heard this, they nodded repeatedly to agree.
Sima Yun suddenly took a step forward, approached Zhang Xi and Zhang Chiang, suddenly stretched out his right hand, and placed it in front of the two. Zhang Xi and Zhang Chiang looked at each other, and then understood Sima Yun's meaning.
Zhang Xi immediately stretched out his right hand without hesitation and put it on the back of Sima Yun's hand, while Zhang Xuan also stretched out his right hand with a smile, put it on Zhang Xi's back.
"I, Sima Yun, here I swore that I would like to be a brother of the opposite sex with Zhang Xi and Zhang Han! The emperor is above and the land is below. I will use this to see and never betray."
"I, Zhang Xiong, swore here, that I would like to be a brother of the opposite sex with Brother Sima and Zhang Han! The emperor is above and the land is below. I will use this to see and never betray me."
"I, Zhang Jian, hereby swear that I would like to become brothers of the opposite sex with my two brothers! The emperor is above and the land is below. I will use this to clearly illustrate and never betray me."
The three young men stared at the three palms that were tightly clasped together, and immediately looked at each other, and they all laughed happily.
