Chapter 27 The Silk in Hexi is Broken, and Sea Trade Is Born
Long Qingyun took a step forward and clasped his fists to Lei Tianhan and said:
"Brother Lei's brushwork is mellow, I admire it very much. I also used Brother Lei's brushwork to curse it wildly, and I won by chance."
Long Qingyun's attitude was sincere, humble and polite, and there was no intention of ridicule. The moment Lei Tianhan admitted defeat, he had already understood that Long Qingyun's sword technique of shooting down his double pen was taken from Huaisu's crazy cursive charm, and he couldn't help but secretly impressed.
Master Qi Mocheng once said that this "shocking stroke" is the most superficial and profound martial arts in the world.
The general outline of "Surprising One Brush" records: three-point weapons, three-point calligraphy, three-point painting, and one-point amazing.
The so-called "three-point weapon" refers to the judge's pen that can "cut, stab, swing, and chop" like "knife, gun, sword, and axe". These are all tangible moves, which is the superficial part of "shocking a stroke". This can basically be achieved by studying hard and practicing hard.
There is also "three-point painting", which refers to the integration of brushwork into painting, freehand painting of mountains, water, flowers, birds, characters, etc. This is an invisible move, which depends on how much one understands, and determines the level of achievement. Among them, freehand painting is the most magnificent.
There is also "three-part calligraphy", which refers to the use of calligraphy as the pen, which can be used to seal script, clerical script, regular script, running script, and cursive script. Among them, cursive script is the most profound and domineering.
The most difficult thing is this "one-point shocking horizon". Although Qi Mocheng's first nine points have reached the pinnacle, the last "one-point shocking horizon" is only a slight success.
Even so, Qi Mocheng can still rank among the top ten masters of Nanyong, which shows how profound the martial arts are.
Since Duan Wang Yong Ruyu visited Qi Mocheng last time, Qi Mocheng went to the Baishan Hei River in Donghan to do something very important, hoping to see through the last point of this "shocking stroke".
Qi Mo became a genius and had ambitions. He was preparing to participate in the "Huashan Sword Contest" two years later and ranked the "Four Greats". But he knew that there was a heaven beyond the sky, even if he had ambition, he might not be able to do what he wanted.
Therefore, Lei Tianhan is often taught to be humble and studious. This time, he can go to Lin'an to "Sword Contest on West Lake" and experience it and see the vast world outside.
Thinking of this, Lei Tianhan's already upright and heroic temperament immediately let go of the haze of defeat just now. When he saw Long Qingyun take the initiative to show his goodwill, he became friends and said with a heartfelt heart:
"If you have a chance another day, let's have a conversation, how about it?" He was filled with a proud and upward posture.
The two of them walked with their heads held high and walked off the martial arts stage.
The scorching sun is in the sky.
A few spots of light were sprinkled on the two of them. From a distance, they were tall and arrogant, and handsome.
The crowd casts a man's envious look and a woman's admiration.
Long Qingyun walked to Bai Yunqi, bowed and said, "Master." Bai Yunqi, who was sitting on the wooden chair in front of the crowd, nodded slightly and said, "Good."
The martial arts stage relies on the "Nanyong Sword Monument" to the north, and is the main position above. The terrain is one foot higher than the martial arts stage. It looks out and watches the martial arts stage competition on the martial arts stage with a look down.
Nine pear blossom chairs lined up in sequence, and the eldest prince Yongtan sat upright in the middle, with a solemn expression and sitting as if he was sitting like a mountain.
Duan Yong Ruyu, the Minister of War, Meng Jie, was sitting on both sides. The left side of Duan Yong Ruyu was Mo Tianyu, Murong Bai, and the Minister of War, Meng Jie, was Hongquan, and Cui Xiyou, the President of Jiangnan Academy, was on the right side of the right side of the Ministry of War.
On the left is a middle-aged beautiful woman in white clothes, with a plump cloud, and elegant temperament. On the right is Pang Hao, the Minister of War.
The nine people on the wooden chair above are either princes and princes, officials of the Ministry of War, or leaders of a faction. They are all prominent people and people with respect for their status.
Logically speaking, since it is a martial arts competition, the Marquis of Junwu should participate, but in Nan Yong, who "respected culture and suppressed martial arts", there are quite taboos, which is a sensitive matter.
Therefore, none of the "Four Pillar Kingdoms" guarding Nanyong, Su Wanting, "Marquis of Zhenyuan", Yuwen Xin, "Duke of Anding" Han Shicheng, and "Duke of Xian'an" Cui Yuanxi, were present, and no subordinates were present.
Of course, Su Zhanhao, the second son of "Zhenyuan Marquis", attended the "West Lake Sword Contest" as a contestant, which can avoid suspicion.
Only the small representatives of military and martial powers could be seen in the crowd, scattered among them, trying to attract martial arts scholars.
On the east, west and south sides of the martial arts, fifty or sixty chairs are arranged under dozens of pine and cypress trees. On the chairs are all prominent figures from all over Nanyong. They look up at the martial arts competitions on the martial arts arena.
Although Bai Yunqi is among the top ten masters of Nanyong, he is not the leader of the sect after all, and he is also sitting on a chair in the east. Next to him are several elders from the West Lake Sword Academy, and Xiao Yuliu is listed.
Xiao Yuliu was also secretly amazed: "This Long Qingyun hasn't seen him for a few days, and he has entered the country very quickly. His martial arts cultivation has obviously reached another level."
This "West Lake Sword Contest" is an annual martial arts event, and all the well-known figures on the martial arts road are here.
Li Yunzong, the leader of the "Yexi Gang", sat in a wooden chair in the west with a graceful manner. This man was born as a thief in the green forest. Although he was an merchant from Lin'an City at this time, he was operating many industries such as "Li Shipping", "Lixuan Pavilion", "Shui Jitou", and "Langtaosha".
In fact, it was Nanyong's underworld giant. He thought he was a tough and strong man, but he was dressed as a middle-aged scholar and looked gentle. No wonder his daughter Li Wanqing, who was standing next to him, was so beautiful and refined, with an elegant appearance.
Li Wanqing stared at Long Qingyun in the crowd opposite, her eyebrows were as far as the mountains, and her eyes were as autumn water. Tuoba Xifeng beside Long Qingyun was so beautiful and she smiled happily.
At this time, Li Wanqing had an indescribable mood. Love, appreciation, envy, jealousy, angry, conflicted? It was all the same.
At that time, the power of Nanyong was declining and the land territory was greatly reduced. The Qinling Mountains, Huaihe Rivers, and the north of Dasan Pass were occupied by Beiqi and Donghan, and the west was under the jurisdiction of the Western Qiang.
The northern trade was unable to get involved. The Central Plains dynasty's "Silk Road" of the Hexi Corridor opened in the Han Dynasty was declining. The Nanyong Kyoto Lin'an is adjacent to the Qiantang River. The water transportation is developed, and the East China Sea will be released. Therefore, overseas trade is in full swing and prosperous.
Overseas trade has become an important source of Nanyong's finances. It is an important cornerstone of the stability of the Nanyong regime and the development of national strength.
At this time, Lin'an City was a world-renowned metropolis. Merchants were the trendsetters in commodity trade. They were a fashionable profession at that time and also enjoyed a good social status.
Next to Li Yunzong, there were several white and fat middle-aged merchants sitting in front of him, with gorgeous clothes. These people were merchants from Guangzhou Port, Quanzhou Port, and Mingzhou Port. They came here today to see the style of Nanyong Warriors.
The business of these merchants mainly uses silk fabrics and porcelain to export to the South Ocean, the West, to the Persian Gulf, the Mediterranean, and the East African coast. Then they import spices, jewelry, etc. from these countries for sale back to Nanyong.
These businessmen usually travel around the world and have a wide range of friendships, including many heroes who are naturally generous.
Sitting on a wooden chair in the middle of the west, a middle-aged man with a gray robe, his eyes were bright and bright, and he stared at Long Qingyun for a long time.
It was noon at this time.
The sun shines brightly, and the sun shines directly down, and the earth is like a steamer, boiling and hot.
But people didn't seem to feel the heat, and were quietly waiting for the finals. They were all looking forward to seeing who is the first among the young generation.
At this time, Pang Hao, the Foreigner of the Ministry of War, was loud and loud, and his voice finally resounded over the martial arts field.
