Jiapingguan Chronicle

Chapter 2494 Reconciliation 36.0

The two people who were still fighting on the field had no idea what the people outside the field were thinking, nor did they know what they were talking about. All their minds were focused on how to break the current deadlock.

Shen Jiu and Yan Yue never thought that this game could last so long. They have fought for hundreds of moves but still can't find the opponent's flaw. They face two choices, one is to continue, the other is to draw.

Although such situations are not uncommon, there is still some pressure in her heart, especially for Yan Yue who met Shen Jiu for the first time. She never thought that after so many years, the young man now can fight with her to this extent. The last time she was shocked by the great general, she lost very badly that time. But even so, it was not a loss to fight with such a powerful person.

Shen Jiu and Yan Yue's reactions were different. Although the general's fighting style was very similar to his, both used the sword technique that His Royal Highness the Eagle King was best at, but each had his own strengths. The other was experienced, while he himself had plenty of experience and had different understandings of sword techniques. Therefore, their exchanges were different, and it was difficult to tell the winner for a while. It all depended on who had greater endurance and patience and looked for the opportunity to deliver the fatal blow.

After a few more rounds, Shen Jiu found that it was too difficult to find the opponent's flaw. General Yan Yue was indeed a man who had fought on the battlefield for many years. Facing his violent attack, he remained calm and composed. It was like he was facing an airtight iron plate and he could not find the slightest loophole.

As he was playing, he accidentally saw Shen Haolin and Shen Cha who appeared out of nowhere out of the corner of his eye. He couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. He relaxed a lot and a little smile appeared on his face.

Yan Yue, who saw all of Shen Jiu's reactions, naturally would not miss the faint smile that flashed across his face. She subconsciously followed Shen Jiu's gaze to look outside the field, but the two people's horses crossed each other at this time, and she saw nothing.

But just at this glance, Shen Jiu found a glimmer of hope and increased the speed of the spear in his hand, but was still blocked by Yan Yue who had come to his senses.

The two men fought back and forth for nearly thirty moves, and both felt that their physical strength had reached its limit and there was no point in persisting.

"No more fighting, no more fighting!" Yan Yue retracted his spear and waved at Shen Jiu, who was also exhausted. "This is not a life-and-death battle, but just a daily exchange. Why do you have to fight to the death? I'm tired, stop!"

"That's what the general said!"

Yan Yue looked at Shen Jiu's serious expression, couldn't help but shook his head and waved at him.

"Come on, let's go off the field and take a break, and let someone else play."

Shen Jiu nodded, and rode to the sidelines with Yan Yue. When he saw Shen Haolin and Shen Cha, he grinned.

"Brother, sister!" He jumped off his horse, handed the reins and spear to the shadow, and rushed towards Shen Haolin and Shen Cha, but was stopped by Shen Cha. "Sister?"

"You're sweating all over." Shen Cha took out her handkerchief and wiped Shen Jiu's sweat off his face. She then took out the water bag and handed it to him, "Drink some water and take a break."

"Yeah!" Shen Jiu drank the water obediently, moving closer to Shen Cha while drinking, and said with a smile, "How long have you been here? Did I fight well?"

"Not bad. It's already great to be able to fight like this with General Yanyue." Shen Cha looked at Yanyue who came over to say hello, "General Yue, long time no see."

"I greet the Duke and the General!" Yan Yue bowed and smiled at Shen Cha. "It has indeed been a long time. It has been nearly half a year since we met in Beijing, right?"

"Indeed, General Yue hasn't changed at all, he's even more brilliant." Shen Cha nodded, looked at Shen Jiu who was holding the water bag and drinking water, smiled, patted his arm, and said, "Instead of asking me how you performed this time, you might as well ask General Yue."

"General Yue, how is it?" Yan Yue looked at Shen Jiu, who was very well-behaved on the battlefield, chuckled and said, "The young general is good and will have a bright future."

“Isn’t this too official?”

"It's not official anymore." Yan Yue looked at Shen Cha, "It's very rare for a young general to be able to fight me to this extent. If he was a little older and had more experience, I'm afraid..."

"What?" Shen Jiu blinked and looked at Yan Yue expectantly, "Can you defeat General Yue?"

"It's possible." Yan Yue looked at him, "But there are some areas where you still need to improve. When you have time, can we talk about it?"

"Okay!" Shen Jiu looked at Yan Yue and smiled softly, "Thank you very much for your guidance, General Yue. We have the same roots and we really need to learn from each other more."

"That's right." Yan Yue looked at Shen Haolin, then at Shen Cha, "I'm so envious!"

"What are you envious of?" Shen Cha looked at Yan Yue curiously, "Last time you envied me for having a brother, what are you envious of this time, Sister Yue?"

"You have a good brother!" Yan Yue looked lonely, glanced at the eagle leopard next to him, rolled his eyes, and said unhappily, "My elder brother and younger brother are very considerate, not like me at all!"

Shen Cha looked at the Eagle Leopard's look of seeking help and couldn't help shaking her head, "Sister Yue, you take a break. How about letting General Eagle Leopard play in the next game?"

Yan Yue looked at Ying Bao, snorted, and said, "I will obey the general's order!"

Eagle Leopard looked at Yan Yue, sighed helplessly, and nodded at them, "Okay, I'll do it."

"That's great!" Xue Ruitian and Bai Meng looked at Yingbao with their arms around each other's shoulders, "General Yingbao, which one of us are you going to choose?"

"Ah I"

"Neither of you two should come up. Leave this opportunity to me." Hongye had already prepared herself. She greeted Shen Haolin and Shen Cha, and stood in front of Yingbao, looking at him calmly, "General Yingbao, can you give me a chance?"

Yingbao looked at Shen Haolin, Shen Cha, Xue Ruitian and Bai Meng, and saw that they all nodded at him. He took a deep breath and said, "Okay, General Hongye, please!"

Hongye also made a please gesture to him, then turned around, jumped and ran to ride the horse, exuding a happy atmosphere.

"She has been thinking about fighting with General Yingbao since yesterday, and today she finally got her wish." Shen Cha smiled, pushed Shen Jiu, waved to Yan Yue, asked someone to sit next to her, and asked in a low voice, "Sister Yue, did you have a fight?"
