Chapter 31 Great Sword Master Wang Yue
After handing over the military power of the fifth battalion of the Northern Army with Lu Zhi, Lu Bu led the Flying Tiger Army back to Xiaopingjin Camp.
It was already Xu when he returned to Xiaopingjin. At around 8 o'clock in the evening, after dinner with his soldiers, he went to Ding Yuan's central army tent. He wanted to see if Ding Yuan had any secrets hidden in the central army tent.
The Red Guards were scattered around the camp.
Lu Bu was rumbling around in the camp and found several letters of He Jin and Ding Yuan. One of them was carefully revealed that Yuan Shao hired someone to write to Ding Yuan as a lie He Jin and asked Ding Yuan to kill the relatives of the eunuchs in Bingzhou. Lu Bu was secretly proud that he could use this letter to threaten Yuan Shao and ask him to agree to the appointment of the empress dowager.
Then there is an account book that describes the money that Ding Yuan had plundered over the years. Lu Bu calculated carefully and found that there were about 10,000 kilograms of gold, more than 20,000 kilograms of silver, silk, and jewelry. It seems that Ding Yuan's son cannot survive. Lu Bu wants to use this money as military pay, which is Ding Yuan's last contribution to the Bingzhou army.
Lu Bu was holding the account book and was secretly proud, but suddenly he felt a chill coming from behind.
Feeling the murderous aura behind him, Lu Bu took out the seven-star sword and slashed it backwards. At the same time, he turned around and saw what kind of person the assassin appeared behind him was.
Only a loud noise from Canglang was heard, and the man behind him yelled: "What kind of weapon is this? It can actually chop against my Qingping Sword!"
Taking advantage of the man's surprise, Lu Bu jumped out of the tent and shouted: "There is an assassin!"
The Red Guards had long heard the sound of weapons colliding in the tent and quickly surrounded the man.
The man was surrounded by the Red Guards with swords, but calmly inserted his Qingping sword into the scabbard, looking up at Lu Bu who was already sitting on the Red Rabbit Horse carrying the Fang Tian Painting Ridge: "Lu Bu! Where is Ding Yuan?"
Lu Bu looked closely and found that this man was the world's number one swordsman, King Yue, Tuizhi.
Wang Yue had a clear face, bright eyebrows and white hair. If it weren't for the faint murderous aura between his eyebrows and eyes, he would be like a kind uncle next door, and like a teacher in a private school.
Wang Yue was famous all over the world in the late years of Emperor Huan of Han. Emperor Ling of Han ruled for twenty years, and Wang Yue also changed from a thirty-year-old man to an elderly man in his fifties (Note 1).
Originally, he would not have white hair and beard at the age of fifty, but his ill-fated fate tortured him to give birth to a beautiful hair.
Wang Yue had mastered his skills in his thirties, traveled all over the world, made friends with martial arts, and had never met an enemy, making a huge name in the swordsmanship. As the saying goes, "Learn from the civil and military skills, you can sell goods to the imperial family." Wang Yue went to Luoyang, the capital to seek official positions. He originally thought that he could win his wife and son by relying on invincible swordsmanship, but he was controlled by the aristocratic family and the inner court was controlled by the ten regular attendants. The aristocratic family only wanted to ask him to guard the house. Wang Yue was unwilling to be a guardian dog. The ten regular attendants accepted his property, but only let him be a low-level military officer, Hu Ben, who had been in the imperial city for several years. Later, some people called him Hu Ben Wang Yue, so he came from this.
A few years later, Wang Yue was framed and removed from the Hu Ben Doctor. He opened a martial arts school in Luoyang City to teach the children of powerful families, hoping to curry favor with the powerful families and get official positions with their support. As a result, he accidentally offended some of the children of powerful families and suppressed them. The business of the martial arts school was bleak.
Later, his wife was seriously ill and his son died prematurely. If it weren't for the support of two disciples, Wang Yue would have been in a slump.
A hint of pity appeared in Lu Bu's eyes: "Brother Bring, you and I haven't seen each other for three years since we met you and me. How could you, a great swordsman, become an assassin?"
Wang Yue smiled bitterly: "Lu Bu, you are just a defeated general under my command, but you are also Guangluxun, and are ranked among the nine ministers. I, Wang Yue, have all my skills, but I have to be an assassin. This is the world, what can I do?!"
Lu Bu remembered that three years ago, when Lu Bu broke through the Yellow Turban at Huguan, he started a massacre of innocent people who were surrounded by the Yellow Turban thieves. He was forcibly stopped by Wang Yue, who happened to pass by. The two fought a lot. At that time, Lu Bu's mount was killed by Wang Yue first. Lu Bu was forced to fight with Wang Yue. He was no match for Wang Yue at all. After more than ten rounds, Wang Yue pointed his sword at the throat and scolded him loudly, making Lu Bu vow not to kill innocent people anymore.
Lu Bu was not angry at the contempt in Wang Yue's words at all. He raised the Fang Tian Painting Ji and smiled slightly: "If you can defeat me immediately, I will let you be this Guangluxun."
Wang Yue glanced at the Red Rabbit Horse indifferently. Seeing this horse Shenjun very much, he knew that he might not be able to stab the horse first, so he sneered: "The defeated general, why dare you speak up? Do you dare to dismount and fight with me?"
Lu Bu didn't talk nonsense to him, and gently touched the golden and red mane of the Red Rabbit Horse and clamped her legs. The Red Rabbit Horse was very versatile. He knew that the master wanted to ride a horse to kill the enemy. He jumped out more than two feet like lightning and headed straight for Wang Yue.
Lu Bu waved Fang Tian's painting halberd, and with the speed of the Red Rabbit Horse, he wanted to kill Wang Yue under the horse with one move.
Wang Yue seemed to be motionless and did not raise his hands, but a cold light flashed in front of Lu Bu. It turned out that Wang Yue had already drawn the Qingping Sword from the scabbard, blocked it with one sword, and intercepted Lu Bu's killing attack.
Only a few crisp sounds of bangling were heard. The originally cold Qingping Sword suddenly broke into several segments and fell to the ground with a bang. Wang Yue took a few steps back and reached out to hold his chest. After a while, blood slowly overflowed from the corner of his mouth.
Wang Yue looked at the broken Qingping Sword on the ground and looked up at Lu Bu: "You have destroyed my sword?!"
Then he asked in confusion: "How come your strength has become so much stronger after three years? Three years ago, you were helpless against my Qingping Sword even with the horse's stance. How could you break it today?"
Lu Bu knew that this was the benefit of crossing lightning. With stronger power, he felt happy and laughed, "The scholar will treat him more with admiration after three days of separation. Master Wang Dajian, for three years, you have not been enterprising and have been self-confidence, and will naturally be surpassed by me. Besides, you are already old and I am still young and strong. One will grows and the other will fade away. You should be convinced."
Wang Yue said angrily: "Boy, Lian Po can still fight in battle in the 70s. I am only in my early fifties. Compared with Lian Po, I am still very young. Today I want you to understand that it is useless to have strong strength."
As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Yue pulled out another sword from his back, and the man and sword were united, turning into a ray of lightning that shot directly into Lu Bu.
The soldiers around him had a flash of eyes, and Wang Yue was seen just a shadow floating by in front of him.

Note 1: Cao Pi's "Dict Theory·Preface": I also learned fencing and read many teachers. The methods in all directions are different, but the capital is good. Among Huan and Ling, there was the technique of the King of Tiger Yueshan, which was called the capital. Henan Shi Ayan and Yueyou had learned the methods, and I was familiar with A. Wang Yue was famous between Emperor Huan of Han and Emperor Ling of Han. Until Emperor Ling of Han died, he was at least forty years old. In addition, Wang Yue's apprentice Shi A was Cao Pi's master, and Wang Yue was considered Cao Pi's master. Wang Yue was at least fifty years old from Cao Pi.
