Chapter Twenty-Four



"I bet with you. If your strength is greater than mine, I will lead you to the horse and kick you for the rest of my life, and I will be loyal!"

Bian Xiang had already said such words, and Li Yan could no longer refuse, otherwise others would be underestimated by him.

Therefore, Li Yan walked towards the stone lion that Bian Xiang raised, while lifting up his clothes and tucking it into his waist.

When Li Yan came to the stone lion, he didn't say much, nor did he prepare to find an angle like Wu Song and Bian Xiang. Instead, he directly stretched out his hands to grab the stone lion's legs, and then he directly raised the stone lion!

Bian Xiang saw it and his chin almost fell off!

Who can’t know how difficult it is to lift and snatch?

Bian Xiang is really unimaginable. How could Li Yan, who is just a middle-aged figure, have such great strength and such strong explosive power!

Not only Bian Xiang, but also Ruan Xiaoqi, Wu Song, Guanghui, Shan Shiqi, Zhu Jing and others were shocked by Li Yan's strength!

Wu Song, who knew Li Yan's strength, murmured: "After all, I underestimated my brother's strength!"

Li Yan originally wanted to throw the stone lion up like Bian Xiang and catch it again!

But after thinking about it again, Li Yan did not do so.

Although he has great power, clear eyes, and extremely strong endurance and recovery power, Li Yan is not ready to go on the battlefield to kill the enemy himself, unless it is a time of necessity.

In Li Yan's opinion, no matter how high a person's martial arts value is, it is of limited use in conquering the world. Haven't you seen that Xiang Yu is as brave as he is defeated by Liu Bang, who is not successful in his martial arts?

Besides, it is impossible to charge yourself, especially as the chassis grows bigger.

Therefore, especially exposing your trump card, it is better to create an image of invincibility and profoundness.

So, after a while, Li Yan gently lowered the stone lion again, with a calm expression, as if he had never held up a stone lion at all, perfectly interpreting the idiom "lifting weights as if he was light".

"Who is this person? How come he has such divine power?"

"Okay! This is the most divine power in the world!"

"I'm really open-minded. This man is so gentle and more powerful than those two big men!"

“…”

After bowing to the incredible crowd, Li Yan walked straight towards Ruan Xiaoqi and others.

Bian Xiang bowed to the ground very barely and said, "From now on, my life will be the great official."

Li Yan quickly helped Bian Xiang up and said, "A joke, brother, don't take it seriously!"

Bian Xiang stood up and said, "I'm not the one who can't afford to lose." Then Bian Xiang lowered his voice and said, "To be honest, I accidentally killed Baozheng from our village. Now I have a family hard to go back. If I hadn't met the high-ranking official, I would go to Weisheng to win the land chase Feng Xiao Chen Ping Tian Hu soon."

After hearing Bian Xiang's heart-wrenching words, Li Yan no longer pretended to reject Bian Xiang, but lowered his voice and said, "Since that's the case, then Brother Bian Xiang, let's go with me. Don't say that you only beat Yi Baozheng to death. It doesn't matter if you kill 180 royal relatives."

What Li Yan and others didn't know was that after he said that he killed someone himself, Bian Xiang kept secretly observing the changes in the expressions of Li Yan and others!

Seeing that Li Yan and others were all looking as usual, especially when Li Yan said these bold words, Bian Xiang felt relieved!

Bian Xiang wanted to say something else, but Guanghui suddenly stumbled and said, "Brother, there are so many people here, so let's go to the hotel to talk about it in detail."

Guanghui was still saying it was too late - although Bian Xiang and Li Yan's voices were small, what they said was still vaguely heard by the thoughtful man with numb faces.

The man with a numb face bowed and said, "A few heroes have invited you!"

At this time, everyone noticed that the numb-faced man had been not far away from them, and realized that what they had just said might have been heard by the numb-faced man!

Wu Song and Guanghui moved left and right without any trace and intercepted the escape line of the man facing the face!

Shan Shiqi lifted the whistle stick!

Ruan Xiaoqi and Zhu Jing touched the short knife in their arms at the same time!

Li Yan's eyes moved slightly, then he bowed to the man with a numb face with such a look and said, "I wonder what kind of advice do you have for a hero?"

The man with a numb face did not seem to notice the murderous intent in the eyes of Ruan Xiaoqi and others, and said respectfully: "The villain's surname is Tang and his name is Long. My father was originally a magistrate in Yan'an Prefecture. Because he was good at fighting, he was used by the old master in front of his account. In recent years, his father died while he was in office. The villain was greedy for gambling and wandered in the world, so he was the only one who made a living here. Because he had numbness all over his body, he called the villain a 'money leopard'."

Li Yan said in surprise: "Are you a golden leopard Tang Long?"

Tang Long was happy and said, "Has the great official heard of the villain's reputation?"

Li Yan said: "Golden Gunner Xu Ning is your cousin, right?"

Tang Long's eyes were wide open, and he was incredible!

Although the Tang Long family has built weapons for generations and is very skilled, Tang Long is actually not famous in the world. What’s more important is that few people know his relationship with Xu Ning!

Tang Long never expected that the mysterious official in front of him not only knew him, but also knew that his cousin was Xu Ning!

Tang Long was even more respectful and said, "The great official knows my cousin?"

Li Yan shook his head and said, "I have heard of it, but I have never seen it."

"This... how did the great official know about the villain and his cousin?" Tang Long couldn't help asking.

Tang Long is a talented person, and this cannot be denied. The descendant of the military weapon manufacturer for generations is absolutely excellent in technology. However, he himself has a fatal weakness, that is, he likes to bet. It is precisely because he likes to bet that he has fallen into the world. Otherwise, Tang Long would probably become an official military weapon manufacturer like his ancestors.

Tang Long was still a kind-hearted man. After going to Liangshan, in order to make contributions and find a support for him, Tang Long recommended Xu Ning to Song Jiang despite the wishes of his cousin Xu Ning, and also personally came forward to deceive Xu Ning up the mountain. In the end, Xu Ning had to go to Liangshan to become a bandit. Finally, he was shot and killed in Xiuzhou by a medicine arrow in Hangzhou during the expedition of Fang La.

but!

Although Tang Long's character is good, he cannot resist his skill. It is exactly what Li Yan is desperately lacking!

Moreover, unlike Song Jiang, Li Yan would never let craftsmen like Tang Long go to the battlefield, and would let craftsmen like Tang Long shine in more suitable positions. Therefore, Tang Long would never have the opportunity to get in touch with military and political power, and then there would be no chance of bad things!

Therefore, even if Tang Long's character has some flaws, it will not hide its merits.

It is precisely because of this that Li Yan said to Tang Long with kindness: "Brother Tang Long, I wonder if you have time, how many bowls of wine will go to the hotel with us?"

After hearing Li Yan's invitation, Tang Long, who was now in a very unsatisfactory situation, was overjoyed and said, "How dare you let down the good intentions of the high-ranking officials!"
