When Ye Yu went to report to Meng Tian, ​​he kept his head down, because he felt that he had no face to face people, especially Meng Tian.

Meng Tian didn't know what he was thinking, he just thought he was showing respect, common people or people with lower status generally wouldn't look directly at people with higher status, Ye Yu's behavior seemed normal to him.

After all, Meng Tian is the grandson of the general, and his father has a small status in the army, he can be regarded as a son of a famous family, but he lost to another person in that way yesterday, even though Ye Yu is older than him, Meng Tian is not at all Never mind, it must be fake.

In order to take care of his younger brother, coupled with the fact that his father and grandfather were always on expeditions, he has cultivated a steady and mature personality, but he is actually only in his teens, and he doesn't see much on the surface, but there is inevitably a pimple in his heart.

Therefore, he didn't pay much attention to Ye Yu any more, and treated him like an ordinary guard.

It should have continued like this, yes, but when Meng Tian was practicing martial arts in the afternoon, Ye Yu had been standing on the sidelines, and Meng Tian naturally noticed him when he changed weapons.

Meng Tian noticed that Ye Yu never looked at him. He seemed to be performing his duties as a bodyguard to keep an eye on his surroundings, but where did he need to be so vigilant in his own home?

The lump in his heart suddenly turned into disbelief, Meng Tian walked up to Ye Yu and called out, "Ye Shiwei?"

Ye Yu hurriedly lowered his head and said respectfully, "Young scholar."

Meng Tian saw that his respect was completely different from the absent-minded one just now, and there was a hint of anger in his tone, "But Tian's martial arts is too poor to be noticed."

Ye Yu immediately remembered what happened yesterday, buried his head even lower, and said in shame: "No, the little scholar is very skilled in martial arts. Yu just thought about what he did yesterday, and only felt that he was shy in the world. How could he dare to face the little scholar?" Scholar."

Meng Tian was taken aback, he didn't expect this to be the reason, but he vaguely remembered that Ye Yu didn't show any shame yesterday, could it be that someone said something in front of him?

Thinking of this, Meng Tian also asked.

Ye Yu still lowered his head and replied: "It's Yu's stupid eyebrows. I thought the young scholar was only a little younger than Yu, but today I learned from the young lady that the young scholar is really young and promising. Thinking about Ji Yu's actions again, I really feel ashamed."

It turned out to be the case.

Meng Tian was not a stingy person at all, and after listening to his words, the knot in his heart also dissipated.

"Why should this be the case? Yesterday was also Tian's fault. You knew that you were fighting with short soldiers, but you still chose long soldiers to fight." Ancient times are not modern times, and Meng Tian's identity can say such apologetic words to him is already an attitude. very low.

Of course Ye Yu couldn't put his nose on his face, he raised his head slightly, but still didn't look directly at Meng Tian, ​​"Yu is holding the weapon you are good at, and the little scholar is holding the weapon you are good at, what's wrong?"

After going back and forth like this, both of them felt much more relaxed. After hearing this, Meng Tian said: "Since that's the case, why don't I try again today? This time we don't use weapons."

"All you have to do is listen to the little scholar." Ye Yu actually didn't want to compete with a kid in his early ten years old, but he had to agree at this time.

Then, the two really entered the martial arts arena with bare hands.

Ye Yu didn't know whether Meng Tian was good at physical skills. Although his own physical skills were not bad, except for physical skills, other aspects were only average.

But even if he really knows how to do that, he doesn't dare to be complacent this time. Facing Meng Tian's stormy attack, he looks like he can barely dodge, and occasionally hits back a few times. Although there are some unexpected effects, but In general, he still focuses on defense.

Meng Tian gave a flying kick, and Ye Yu put his hands in front of his chest to block, and retreated a few steps due to the force.

This time Meng Tian didn't continue to attack, instead he stood there with a straight face and looked at him, "What do you mean? Don't say anything else, your skill yesterday was better than this."

Ye Yu briefly explained: "Yu is better at defense."

How could Meng Tian not have guessed that it was Ye Yu who was waterproof?And he also knew the reason, so he didn't get angry. He just pondered for a moment, walked to the weapon rack, drew out two identical bronze swords, and threw one of them to Ye Yu.

"I think you are good at this, let me take a good look at your ability." Meng Tian said holding the hilt of the sword with both hands.

Ye Yu looked at the sword in his hand, showing hesitation.

"Why, as a guard of my Meng Mansion, you can't know nothing." Meng Tian elevated this competition to the level of assessment, which is very similar to yesterday.

Ye Yu subconsciously assumed the posture of holding the sword, but he couldn't help thinking about what happened yesterday.

Seeing that he was still hesitating, Meng Tian swung his sword and stabbed him.

This blow was not fatal, Ye Yu dodged it with a signal.

Meng Tian once again put on a ready-to-attack posture, and said, "Isn't this very good?"

The hesitation in Ye Yu's heart gradually dissipated. He gritted his teeth and thought in his heart: If you lose face, you will lose face. If I lose to a child in swordsmanship, it will be even more embarrassing!

Having made the decision, Ye Yu held the sword in a more accustomed posture. At the same time, the momentum around him was also lifted. Looking at it from a distance, it gave people a mysterious and mysterious feeling, like... like It is the legendary sword intent.

His slender peach blossom eyes narrowed slightly, the same movement, but this time it was a little more sharp and a little less blurred.

With the black clothes on him, he looked even more solemn.

Meng Tian was very satisfied with the result, he was fully prepared to meet Ye Yu's attack.

In some martial arts novels, the contestants always have to face each other for a long time, because every time a move is made, a flaw will appear, and the one who moves first is the one who will show the flaw first.

But this does not apply to the current scene.

It was just a change of posture, but within a few breaths, Ye Yu raised his sword and attacked.

Most of the bronze swords from the Warring States period were fifty or sixty centimeters long, but the swords of the Qin State were longer. The one in his hand was roughly seventy centimeters long. It didn’t have the usual pattern on noble weapons, but the blade was very sharp, as bright as a mirror. .

Since the appearance of the sword in the Zhou Dynasty, the characteristics of the sword have been highlighted, that is, it cannot be hardened.If you say that two swords cut at each other, then it is not a sword.

The essence of swordsmanship lies in seduction and deceit, which is very similar to the art of war. To put it simply, it can be summed up in sixteen words. First, "show the enemy his weakness, and lure the enemy to attack him", and then "attack him who is unprepared, and catch him by surprise".

It stands to reason that Ye Yu should have waited for Meng Tian to show his weakness before attacking, or he should have pretended to show his weakness to lure Meng Tian to attack, but he didn't.

It's not that he doesn't know these reasons, but he feels that it's better to be preemptive than to be passive-aggressive.

His assumption was that if he attacked first, Meng Tian would wonder if he had revealed his flaws, and thus revealed his real flaws.

Waiting for the enemy to give you a flaw that you don't know whether it is true or not, it is better to create it yourself.

This is also "fraud".

Meng Tian was indeed as he had imagined. Seeing Ye Yu attacking his ribs intently, his first thought was, could there be a flaw in his ribs?

Although he hadn't confirmed it yet, he was already holding the sword in his backhand, almost instinctively blocking his ribs with the blade.

At this time, he has already shown his flaws.

The bronze sword that was piercing through the air just now changed suddenly, and its trajectory was like flowing water. Even if it changed its direction midway, it did not stop at all, and even the cold light of the sword's edge did not dissipate.

The tip of the sword pointed directly at Meng Tian's shoulder, and it was impossible for him to defend with the sword in his backhand now.

But he dodged anyway.

His body fell backwards, staggered the sharp pointed sword, rolled on the ground a few times, then kicked up at a very fast speed, and stood a few steps away from Ye Yu's side.

He looked intently, and saw that the tip of the sword was still where he was just now, from which he could see how freely Ye Yu could retract and release the sword.

Meng Tian had never seen such an unpretentious sword.

He has seen many swordsmen's swords, but Ye Yu is the cleanest one among them.

Ye Yu's movements are not moves, and they are even different from what he used to understand. There is no such thing as "external appearance, like a good woman", and there is no such thing as "like a rabbit in the dark", Ye Yu always holds his hands. The moment he puts on the sword, he becomes a wolf.

Meng Tian recalled Ye Yu's actions just now in his mind, and suddenly found that Ye Yu's actions were in fact all in line with the essence of the sword.

Show the enemy weak.Ye Yu moved first, and the opening appeared, but he didn't find and attack sooner.

Lure the enemy to attack it.Again, he didn't have time to attack.

Attack the unprepared.When he defends his ribs, isn't his shoulder defenseless?

By surprise.This series of behaviors are all unexpected.

Meng Tian couldn't help thinking of his grandfather Meng Ao's admonition:

"Why do you follow the rules like that, and others will stand still on the battlefield so that you can't poke them? Where on the battlefield will you have the time to lie to others, and you will not be afraid of being stabbed if you stand still! What an elm head !"

Meng Tian looked at Ye Yu and thought to himself: This is what my grandfather wanted to tell me.

"I lost." Although it was only one move, Meng Tian was convinced of the defeat.

"Huh?" Ye Yu still had the awe in his eyes, and the sword in his hand was still preparing for the next attack, but when he suddenly heard that Meng Tian had just conceded defeat, he was immediately puzzled.

Meng Tian put the sword in his hand on the weapon rack, turned his head and said to Ye Yu: "In a few days, some officials and children in the city will go hunting in the suburbs, and His Royal Highness may also come this time. When the time comes, would you like to come with me?" go?"

Ye Yu's eyes lit up, and he said joyfully, "Young scholar Xie Tian, ​​Yu is willing to go there!"
