Chapter 57 Martial Arts Wizard
Outside Cheng's house, Yang Shen came personally to invite Ou Zanghua to attend today's question-setting banquet, because one of the examiners, You Chunfang You Yude and Hanlin Shijiang Lun Wenxu, would also attend.

Just as the door of Cheng's house opened, a strong arm suddenly rested on his shoulder.

Yang Shen was stunned, wondering why his attendant with great martial arts skills did not stop this person?
He turned his head and a smiling face appeared before him.

Suddenly, Yang Shen's pupils shrank: "Your Majesty!"

"That's right, I am your close friend Zhu Shou." Emperor Zhengde nodded happily.

Xiang Danian happened to see the two of them at this time, and hurriedly bowed and said, "Hello, Mr. Yang, hello, Mr. Zhu."

Seeing that there were outsiders present, Yang Shen swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth.

He glanced behind him and saw that the two Emei masters his father had found for him were being restrained by two unknown men.

Looking at the embroidered spring swords worn on the waists of the two men, Yang Shen knew that they were masters of the Embroidered Uniform Guard.

"Hehe, Ou Zanghua and I have been friends for a long time. Today I came to visit you specially with Yang Yongxiu." Zhu Shou put his arm around Yang Shen with one hand, looking very natural.

"This"

Xiang Danian stepped aside with some embarrassment, pointed at the paper on the screen wall and said, "My senior brother said that after reading this, you gentlemen will understand."

"What is that?" Zhu Shou pulled Yang Shen over to take a look. It was a poem.

Zhu Shou didn’t quite understand, but it didn’t matter, he had just picked up the cheat, so he pushed it decisively: “Use repair, go!”

Yang Shen looked helpless and could only explain: "Jingyu meant that he wanted to have a good rest, so don't disturb him."

"How can that be done?"

When Zhu Shou heard this, he immediately became unhappy: "Young man, you should take Wu Gou and take over the thirty counties of Hejian!"

As he said this, he pushed Xiang Danian away with one hand, held Yang Shen with the other, and rushed in.

Originally Xiang Danian wanted to block it, but he was surprised to find that this person's internal strength was so profound that he was shaken away without any room for resistance.

When he tried to catch up, he was restrained by a middle-aged man with a white face and no beard.

Xiang Danian was stunned. Where did this expert come from? !
Ou Zanghua was wearing a coat, sitting in the room with the window open, writing a letter.

It was a letter written to Liu Qing, telling him what he encountered on the road and his longing for his fiancée.

Qu Feiyan went out to buy groceries today, so the yard seemed a little quiet.

At this moment, after hearing a commotion, he looked up and saw Yang Shen being dragged into the yard like a child.

No, who is this fool?
Did you know that the person he dragged in was the disciple of the current prime minister and the son of the next prime minister?

but
Ou Zanghua suppressed the corners of his mouth. He didn't expect to see Yang Yongxiu in such an embarrassed state.

"Are you Ou Zanghua? Not bad, not bad, good-looking!" Zhu Shou's eyes lit up when he saw the person sitting in the window. It is so easy to win other people's favor if you are handsome.

"Sir, why don't you let my friend go first?" Ou Zanghua looked at Yang Shen again and suggested calmly.

"Hey, Yong Xiu is also my friend." Zhu Shou happily let go of Yang Shen, raised his head towards Ou Zanghua, and said, "My name is Zhu Shou. I heard that Mr. Ou is not only a first-class writer, but also a master of kendo. I came here today to seek advice."

When Ou Zanghua heard this name, his heart tightened. This fool is Zhengde? !

No wonder he could bring Yang Shen in like a chicken, that explains it.

Upon hearing this, Yang Shen immediately said, "Master Zhu, Jingyu is a scholar, how can he wield a sword?!"

"You don't understand!" Zhu Shou rolled his eyes at Yang Shen and said confidently, "I knew he was good at swordsmanship the first time I saw him."

"Why?" Ou Zanghua asked with some confusion.

He never considered himself a martial arts genius, otherwise he would not have changed his career halfway to try to take the imperial examination.

"This is the tacit understanding between masters!" Zhu Shou said seriously: "I believe you can also sense that I am a master of sticks!"

"No, I think you are a fool." Ou Zanghua was speechless. He actually expected to hear some serious words from Zhengde. "Mr. Zhu, actually."

"Mr. Ou, there is no need to say more. Show me your true moves! Let me see what is so unique about the Hengshan School's swordsmanship."

As he spoke, Zhu Shou stretched out one hand, and Gu Dayong quickly took out two short sticks carved with complex patterns, took them together, and twisted them quickly, and a stick that reached the height of his eyebrows appeared.

Zhu Shou waved a stick with one hand, pointed at Ou Zanghua, and then hooked his finger.

"Jingyu, no!" Yang Shen knew from the look on his face that his stupid boss was serious and quickly spoke out to stop him.

"Yang Yongxiu, get out of the way!"

Zhu Shou glared at Yang Shen, then looked at Ou Zanghua and said, "Mr. Ou, I am not afraid to tell you that I am praised by many masters as a martial arts prodigy that only appears once in a century. If you deliberately let me win, you will lose miserably."

Ou Zanghua sighed, picked up the Yuncang Sword, and walked out of the room: "In this case, let's meet friends through martial arts today. Please teach me, Master Zhu."

"Good! It should be so straightforward." As soon as Zhu Shou finished speaking, he kicked the end of the stick with one foot and quickly attacked Ou Zanghua.

The eyebrow-level stick method, covering and chopping in succession!

Ou Zanghua's long sword blocked continuously, which was exactly the Return of the Wind and Falling Wild Goose Sword Technique - Four Returns of the Northern Swallow.

Then he quickly connected with the Thirteen Swords of the Thousand Illusions of Clouds and Mist, the Three Techniques of Returning Goose, slashing up and down, slashing left and right, and turning around to cut horizontally.

The sword was drawn so quickly, used so urgently, and with such steady force, he attacked fiercely, forcing Zhu Shou back several steps.

With a "ding" sound, the last sword was blocked by Zhu Shou's iron stick.

Ou Zanghua slid his sword down and used the move of "Seeing the Dragon Take Off His Armor" to try to remove Zhu Shou's long stick.

However, Zhu Shou's reaction surprised Ou Zanghua. After he withdrew his hand, he used the move of Su Qin carrying a sword and grabbed the stick again.

Then he turned around and used the Qimei Staff Technique to Sweep Across Thousands of Enemies.

With a dull "clang" sound, the huge force caused Ou Zanghua to take two steps back.

Zhu Shou took advantage of the situation and did not show any mercy. He used Yang family stick technique - General Opening the Way and Chopping. One move included many variations of picking, collapsing, blocking, poking and smashing. He pressed forward step by step with great momentum.

Ou Zanghua felt heavy in his heart and could only passively resist continuously.

Zhu Shou seized the opportunity again and used Taizu Stick to split Huashan with force!

Ou Zanghua took a shaky step and used the Light Body Controlling the Wind and Pegasus Stepping on Swallows to avoid it.

With a loud "bang", Zhu Shou hit the ground with a stick, cracking the bluestone slab, and one end of the iron stick was directly buried in the soil.

But he seemed to have no reaction. He was able to draw out the long stick with one hand and use the Wudang Black Tortoise Stick - Black Dragon Out of the Cave move on Ou Zanghua in mid-air.

Ou Zanghua held his sword horizontally, but was still knocked backwards by the stick.

Fortunately, Qingwu Yufeng·Feima Stepping on Swallow was best at this kind of small-range movement. Ou Zanghua turned in the air to relieve the force and landed on the ground. Then he turned the sword and held the Yuncang sword upright behind him before he could stand still.

This time Zhu Shou did not pursue him. He stood there and looked at Ou Zanghua with a satisfied smile, commenting: "Your swordsmanship is OK, but your internal strength is insufficient."

Ou Zanghua exhaled slowly, bowed to Zhu Shou and said, "Mr. Zhu is unrivaled in the use of sticks. I admire you."

This is not flattery, but this boy Zhengde is really capable.

It looked like a draw, but in reality, after another ten moves or so, Ou Zanghua might not even be able to hold the sword steadily.

After Zhengde split Huashan with one move, his hand was as good as ever, which showed that his internal strength was far superior to Ou Zanghua's.

"Hehe, there are so many people in this world who admire me, you are not the only one I need." Zhu Shou waved his hand, threw the iron rod to Gu Dayong, and asked casually: "Don't you have any decent internal skills in Hengshan Sect?"

Ou Zanghua laughed awkwardly and said, "In fact, Hengshan's internal strength is already considered pretty good in the martial arts world."

"Tsk! How shabby! Just wait."
