Chapter 81

After Xiang Shangzhi and Meng Huhu exchanged pleasantries for a while, Xue Rengui invited everyone to sit down and asked his wife Liu Yinhuan to continue preparing food and drinks.

As soon as Meng Huo sat down, he wanted to introduce Li Cha to Xiang Shangzhi and Xue Rengui.

"Brother Xiang, let me introduce you, this is..."

Unexpectedly, Xiang Shangzhi interrupted him before he finished speaking.

"Stop, tiger, the little brother next to you looks like a high-ranking person, and the old brother, I am an old hunter in the mountains. With your introduction, the old brother will have no face to sit here and chat."

Xiang Shangzhi is an old man in his 70s, what else can he hide from his eyes.Although he lives in seclusion in the mountains, he still knows about Meng Huo's achievements.With Meng Huhu's current status, the only ones who can make him condescend at such a young age are the princes of the Li family's royal family.

And his uprising troops back then were suppressed by Tang Guogong Li Yuan, who was the comfort envoy of Hedong who guarded Taiyuan.He has some grievances with the current Li family royal family.Moreover, he has long since lost the desire to fight for power and profit, so he will neither resent the Li family's royal family nor work for the Li family's royal family.

If Meng Huo really revealed the identities of the two, the subsequent conversation would be somewhat awkward.So he interrupted Meng Huo directly, and found an excuse to fool the past.

"Hahaha, what the old man said is reasonable. Li Cha has met Senior Xiang. We are here, regardless of our status, we are only friends." Xiang Shangzhi answered.Li Cha knew that he had something to hide, and immediately rounded up the words.Said boldly.

"Hahaha. The little brother is refreshing. After a while, the old man will have a drink with the little brother." Xiang Shangzhi also replied boldly.

"Tiger, how about the apprentice I accepted, old brother?" Then Xiang Shangzhi asked Meng Huhu.

"Okay! Loyalty, loyalty, love and righteousness. And extraordinary strength, superb martial arts. Congratulations, Brother Xiang, for finding such an excellent successor. Your set of Xiang Family Overlord's Halberd Technique can finally be passed on perfectly." Meng Huhu praised sincerely.

"Hahaha, that's inevitable. My apprentice is strong and strong, with superb martial arts skills. He is invincible. You and my apprentice have tried it just now. You are no longer Li'er's opponent, right? " Xiang Shangzhi said proudly.

"That's true. The old man is indeed no match for Nephew Xue Xian. When you are old, you have to admit that you are old. How do you say that? Tiger said with a sigh.

"Yes, we are all old. I have lived for more than 70 years. I have seen countless good men like crucian carp crossing the river. My own disciple, I know. With Li'er's force, even if it is placed in the last year of the previous dynasty In the era when heroes and heroes are born in large numbers, it is also the best among them. In today's world, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is the best in the world."

After finishing speaking, he took another look at Li Cha, and continued, "Now that Li'er has graduated as a teacher, he can contribute to the country." These words were obviously addressed to Li Cha.

Xue Rengui next to him heard his master and uncle Meng praise him so much, he smiled proudly and said: "Xue Li is not as good as the master and uncle said. Xue Li is still far behind."

"Hahaha, Li'er, you don't have to be overly self-effacing. If it was at the end of the previous dynasty, you really wouldn't even get in the top ten rows. Even when your uncle Meng was young, he was much better than you. But now, those people back then, old and dead, say that you are number one in the world, it is not an exaggeration at all."

After speaking, he glanced at Li Cha indistinctly, as if waiting for Li Cha to speak, waiting for Li Cha to question.

Xiang Shangzhi knew that Li Cha must be a high-ranking person, so he kept promoting Xue Rengui in front of Li Cha.Although he himself has seen through the world and lived a carefree life, he doesn't want his apprentice to waste his talents in this piece of farmland.

After Li Cha heard Xiang Shangzhi's words, his eyes rolled, and an idea appeared in his mind.

Although Li Cha still doesn't know the specific identity of the white-haired old man in front of him, but he can teach an apprentice like Xue Rengui, he will not be an unknown person.Li Cha thought about abducting him into his Polu army and becoming an instructor.

Thinking of this, Li Cha directly interjected: "Old man, are you so confident that this brother Xue can rank first in the world in martial arts?"

Xiang Shangzhi was immediately happy when he heard this.You're finally hooked.How can you, a prince who lives in the deep palace, know anything about the green forest.My precious apprentice is a once-in-a-hundred-year martial arts prodigy. Just now I said that he can't be ranked in the top ten, just waiting for your questioning.

According to Xiang Shangzhi's deduction, Xue Rengui's force at this time is no less than that of the purple-faced king Xiongkuohai back then.Even in the last years of the previous dynasty, it was still able to rank among the top five existences.What's more, nowadays, as the leader in the green forest, does he know how many good men there are in this world?
"Hahaha, little brother, I can say with certainty that with the deaths of those heroes back then, the old ones, my apprentice's ability to ride horses and shoot arrows, break through formations and kill enemies is unmatched in this world. Called the world's first."

Hearing his elder brother bragging about his apprentice in front of Li Cha, Meng Huo smiled wryly and shook his head, just about to say something, but Li Cha stared back.

"Old man, to be honest, I don't believe Brother Xue can be number one in the world. Since the old man is so confident, how about we make a bet?" Li Cha said with a smile on his face.

"Oh. What kind of bet? Are there people around you who are more powerful than Meng Huo?" Xiang Shangzhi immediately became wary when he heard that Li Cha wanted to bet.People who have lived for more than 70 years are not so easy to be fooled. First, they asked a question on the sidelines.

Hearing Xiang Shangzhi's reply, Li Cha was also happy, and said with a smile: "There is indeed no one around me who is better at martial arts than Brother Meng. You can ask Brother Meng about this."

"Meng Huhu, is what this little brother said true? You can't lie to old brother." After hearing this, Xiang Shangzhi really asked Meng Huhu.

Meng Huo gritted his teeth in pain, and said word by word: "Yes, this Mr. Li San is indeed the most powerful around me." While talking, he muttered in his heart: "Old brother, I can help you!" You can only go here, if you can’t hear it, then you really don’t blame me.”

Xiang Shangzhi was still worried, and then asked again: "Where did the little brother meet someone who is stronger than my apprentice?"

"I can clearly tell my husband that I have never met anyone with a higher martial arts than Brother Xue, but I still firmly believe that Brother Xue cannot be number one in the world." Li Cha continued to say with a smile.

"The little brother has never seen it before, but he is so confident. This kind of arrogance really admires the old man. How is the little brother going to gamble?" Xiang Shangzhi put down half of his heart, and first listened to Li Cha's gamble.

"How about a gamble? I won. The old man promised me a request. I lost. As long as this brother Xue is willing to join the army, I can guarantee to give a regular soldier the rank of general of the third rank. What does the old man think?" Li Cha laughed.
