"Go get Guard Guan's sword! Remember to find two more people to carry it!"
Afterwards, when the princes at the banquet saw three servants coming in carrying a green-handled crescent-shaped sword, many of them were shocked.
"Such a heavy sword..."
You have to know that the servants in Liu Yu's mansion are not weak people. Even if they are not outstanding people, they are strong men with greater strength than ordinary people.
The sword that requires three people to lift must weigh at least 150 kilograms.
When the big knife was carried in front of Guan Yu, Guan Yu just stretched out his right hand and easily picked it up. Many people suspected that it was a pretend by the three servants, and in fact the knife was not that heavy.
But when Guan Yu stuck the handle of the knife on the ground.
Accompanied by a dull sound that seemed to knock into everyone's heart, when the handle of the knife touched the ground, the originally thick floor tiles directly cracked like a spider web, and everyone even felt that the entire ground trembled slightly.
The weight of this knife is real.
The man holding the knife is a real strong man, not just a pawn.
Not only the princes realized this, but Han Fu and Gao Lan and Zhang He who were beside Han Fu also saw Guan Yu's extraordinaryness.
"My lord, this man...is unfathomable." Gao Lan, who had been silent all this time, said to Han Fu.
Although Zhang He did not speak, it could be seen from the surprise in her eyes behind the mask that her thoughts were exactly the same as Gao Lan's.
Doesn’t Pan Feng know?
Of course Pan Feng knew, because he was closest to Guan Yu, and he was the first to feel the impact of the sword shaking the ground.
For a moment, Pan Feng's confident expression paused, and the look in his eyes when he looked at Guan Yu also changed.
His eyes moved slightly, and Pan Feng's momentum weakened a little in an instant.
"Who are you?" He asked Guan Yu while holding a big axe.
"An ordinary guard." Guan Yu looked at Pan Feng and answered calmly.
How could Pan Feng believe it? With the momentum and strength Guan Yu showed in just that moment, how could he be just an ordinary guard?
"Who are you?!" Pan Feng frowned and asked in a deep voice.
"You said I was a 'pawn', how come you forgot it in less than half a minute?" Guan Yu asked in confusion.
Pan Feng was speechless for a moment when he heard this.
"Okay, okay." At this time, Liu Zhaoqing also came out to smooth things over.
He looked at Guan Yu and Pan Feng and said, "Since both of you have already taken up your weapons, then, as we agreed beforehand, as long as General Pan Feng can pass the checkpoint to guard this pass, you can go find whatever you want."
"So...what if I can't make it?"
At this time, a prefect of Jizhou suddenly asked.
"Jizhou is the place where many heroes from Hebei gather. Don't you think it can't be defeated by a small guard?" Liu Zhaoqing said with a smile.
At this time, Pan Feng on the other side had turned his head to look at Han Fu, wanting to ask Han Fu's opinion.
Han Fu just frowned slightly and then nodded slightly at him.
Now Pan Feng had no way out.
You have to bear the consequences of what you install yourself.
At this moment, Pan Feng saw Shen Pei move his lips slightly towards him, and then a voice came into his ears.
This is a gift from Shen Pei, who can "twist the sound into a rope" and achieve such "encrypted" conversations within a relatively short distance.
Shen Pei also told Pan Feng that Liu Zhaoqing did not designate anyone else, which means that this unknown but seemingly powerful Guan Yu needs to face all the Hebei princes alone.
So what Pan Feng has to do is, even if he can't kill the opponent, just consume his physical strength.
After fighting for thirty to fifty rounds, if Gao Lan, Zhang He and others were replaced, the opponent could be defeated.
This will not only seize the power to explore the artifact, but also demonstrate Jizhou's strength in front of other princes and achieve a deterrent effect, which can be said to kill two birds with one stone.
Pan Feng felt that this strategy was very reliable. If it was just to consume the opponent's physical strength, then he, Pan Feng, would naturally have no problem with it.
Pan Feng, who regained his confidence, took a step forward, then moved his neck and said, "Since the lord has given the order, I, Pan Feng, will come to meet you, the 'little soldier'."
Liu Zhaoqing took a step back, but Guan Yu stood still and just nodded.
Guan Yu's obvious attitude of looking down on him also made Pan Feng particularly annoyed. He wanted to test how powerful the other party was. At the same time, he put away his contemptuous thoughts and prepared to attack her with utmost seriousness.
Holding the axe, Pan Feng shouted loudly, then jumped and chopped towards Guan Yu with great force. It seemed that this was not a simple competition, but an attempt to take Guan Yu's life.
Pan Feng's axe was swung with great momentum, and the purple light on the axe blade almost filled the entire hall. The power of an almost top-notch genius was undoubtedly revealed at this moment.
Liu Yu and Liu He on the stage showed worry to varying degrees. Pan Feng's strength was really strong. If we only talk about martial arts, he could even compete with Xianyu Fu.
Although Liu Bei's second sister was so favored by Zhao Qing, they still had many concerns.
The other princes in Hebei and the forces of the Youzhou faction such as Gongsun Zan were also worried.
The result of this competition was very important to both sides, and the seemingly evenly matched situation also made them nervous.
On the contrary, whether it was Han Fu's side, or Liu Zhaoqing, Liu Bei and Zhang Fei's side, they all looked calm.
But when Guan Yu started to move, some people on the calm side immediately became restless.
Just as the axe, with unstoppable force, created a wave of air, causing Guan Yu's clothes to rustle and his long hair to flutter.
Guan Yu, who seemed to be frightened and unable to move, finally moved.
She picked up the crescent-shaped sword in her right hand and pointed the shining blade directly at the oncoming axe. However, the axe, which was at least three times larger than the crescent-shaped sword, did not cut it off as Pan Feng had imagined.
Instead, the axe seemed to have hit a piece of extremely solid stone, and the body stopped immediately.
The huge force shattered the tiles under Guan Yu's feet, but his body did not move at all. Instead, Pan Feng's knuckles were hit by the recoil force, causing him to feel a tearing pain.
But the next moment, Pan Feng had no time to care about the pain in his palm, because he saw Guan Yu's scarlet eyes looking at him coldly as he raised the knife.
From those bloodshot eyes, Pan Feng seemed to see his own end, an end in which his head and body were separated and he was kneeling on the ground unable to get up.
He was suddenly horrified.
This is not a "pawn" at all; he is a "killer god"!
But it was obviously too late for Pan Feng to realize this.
While taking the axe, Guan Yu exerted force on her wrist. Not only did she not push away Pan Feng's axe, but she directly carried the axe and walked towards Pan Feng with both hands holding the sword.
This unskillful battle did indeed look like an "unknown pawn", but Pan Feng understood that this was because the opponent did not need to use any skills at all and could defeat him with strength alone.
"not good!"
Gao Lan over there stood up.
Shen Pei did the same, and quickly reached out his hand: "Knife down...!"
Before he could say the two words "keep his men alive", Guan Yu had already knocked Pan Feng's axe away, and then he chopped off Pan Feng's head with an expressionless face.
Gao Lan and Shen Pei's faces changed drastically, Zhang He also looked stunned, only Zhang Fei grinned.
However, just when the blade of the crescent-shaped sword was about to cut off Pan Feng's neck like chopping vegetables, Guan Yu suddenly turned his wrist, changing the blade to the back of the sword, and then controlled the long sword from a chopping motion to a downward swing.
The back of the knife hit Pan Feng's right chest directly, knocking him to the ground instantly. Amid the flying of tables, chairs and wine vessels, the sound of bones breaking spread all around.
The battle ended just like that. It seemed like a long time, but in fact it was less than two breaths, less than one round.
The whole place was silent until the axe that had been lifted up fell back and landed right next to Guan Yu. Only then did everyone come to their senses.
"This... is this a genius?!"
"General Pan Feng was gifted with the power of the earth, but he was defeated by just physical strength?"
"How could this person be just a pawn? Who on earth is he?!"
……
Faced with the shock of the princes, Guan Yu ignored them, turned around and bowed to Liu Yu, indicating that he had completed his mission, then picked up his crescent-shaped sword and walked back behind Liu Bei.
Zhang Fei patted her on the shoulder and praised her for being so brave, but he also questioned why she didn't just chop the fat ball down.
Guan Yu just looked at Liu Bei, who then calmly explained in a voice so soft that only the three of them could hear, "This battle is not to kill the enemy, but to deter them. If we kill General Han Fu in front of them, it will cause unnecessary trouble."
Although that was said, Pan Feng, who was lying in a shallow pit at the moment, had his right arm covered in blood and flesh, and was already unconscious. Although he was not dead, he was too seriously injured to get up. Even if he could recover with abundant resources later, he would definitely be left with a root of illness, and he would be useless.
Han Fu opened his mouth, still not recovering from the fact that his general was defeated by Guan Yu in less than a round, while Liu Yu above him was already stroking his beard with a smile on his face.
"Okay, okay!"
"You are worthy of being my bodyguard. I will reward you handsomely when I get back!"
After finishing speaking, Liu Yu also looked at Liu Zhaoqing. Liu Zhaoqing understood and stepped forward again, smiling at Han Fu and said, "What do you think? The general of Hanzhou Mu has been defeated. Who else do you want to send? Is it this Gao Lan, or Zhang He, or... Shen Pei?"
When they heard Liu Zhaoqing accurately call out their names, the expressions of the people whose names were called changed to varying degrees.
Liu Zhaoqing then looked at Zhang Yang and the others and said, "Grandmaster Zhang, and the rest of our friends, if you want to challenge me, feel free to give it a try. Don't wait until Guard Guan has rested enough, because then you won't have a chance."
It seems like giving advice, but in fact it is just a mockery.
Guan Yu doesn't look like she's resting now, or it could be said that she defeated Pan Feng so easily that she didn't use much of her strength at all.
If you think Guan Yu is at the end of his strength at this time and want to do something that will consume his physical strength, then you are simply blind and want to die.
The reason why Guan Yu spared Pan Feng's life was because Pan Feng was a subordinate of Han Fu and one of his trusted generals.
They don't have such treatment. If they go to fight Guan Yu, they will definitely be used as sacrifices.
However, these people would definitely not give up so easily. Shen Pei stood next to Han Fu and whispered something to him.
Han Fu, who had come to his senses, glanced at Liu Zhaoqing with a gloomy look, and then Gao Lan immediately carried Pan Feng away to treat him. He then said to Liu Zhaoqing, "I didn't expect that the Marquis of Changping would actually use shady tricks?"
"Dirty tricks?" Liu Zhaoqing raised his eyebrows. "First of all, I didn't poison you, and secondly, I didn't break the rules. It was an open competition, and it was clear that your general was inferior to the other man in skills. How come you said that I was playing dirty tricks?"
Liu Zhaoqing's questioning voice left Han Fu with no room for rebuttal, but even if he had a thousand grievances, he had to postpone it.
Han Fu looked at Liu Yu and cupped his hands: "If that's the case, I will keep my promise and not conduct a search."
"However, Lord Bo'an's promise to give me a satisfactory reply should still count, right?"
Liu Yu hesitated for a moment, then nodded.
He shouldn't ignore what he promised, that's not who he is.
Han Fu also laughed when he heard this, as if the fact that his general had just been seriously injured was just a dream.
He said to Liu Yu: "Then, Lord Bo An, can you tell us where the 'divine weapon' is?"
"Didn't I tell you that I don't have that kind of thing?" Liu Yu frowned slightly and spoke.
"Of course I believe Lord Bo'an on this point, but can Lord Bo'an provide evidence that there is no 'divine weapon'?" Han Fu asked.
After that, he explained: "Don't think I'm just looking for trouble, Lord Bo'an. This matter concerns the safety of the Han Dynasty and the entire Hebei Province. People like us who were born and raised in Hebei will naturally take it very seriously."
"What else do you want to do?" At this moment, Liu Zhaoqing asked Han Fu indifferently.
"I should persuade you with kind words." Han Fu looked at Liu Yu, then bowed and said, "Lord Bo'an, don't worry about us going to search for him. I just heard that Lord Bo'an seemed to have been granted a treasure by the late emperor."
"Although I don't know what the treasure is, Lord Bo'an must have kept it at home now, right?"
"The rumor says that the collapse of the Mandate of Heaven means that there is an emperor in Hebei, so it is naturally related to the treasure bestowed by the late emperor. Of course, this is just our guess. As long as Lord Bo An shows us the treasure bestowed by the late emperor, our confusion will be solved."
Han Fu smiled and said, "It is normal if Lord Bo An is reluctant to part with it."
He looked at the princes around him, and then said: "As you all know just now, the rumor was spread by the Hu people. Previously, Changping Hou won a great victory, and now the Hu people are endangering our Han Dynasty. It is our duty as the heroes of Hebei to defeat the Hu people."
"As long as Lord Bo'an provides us with some help and allows us to borrow land to fight against the barbarians and destroy their lair, we won't have to worry about the rumor that 'there is an emperor in Hebei' being used by the barbarians, which is a huge threat to us."
Han Fu gave Liu Yu two choices, but both choices were actually traps.
In the previous choice, Liu Yu had already handed over the thing bestowed by the late emperor to Liu Zhaoqing. Even if he still had other treasures bestowed by the late emperor, since the Mandate of Heaven was the Mandate of the Han Dynasty, there was no guarantee that it would really cause strange phenomena again. At that time, it would instead confirm the reputation of the rumors being true.
The second one was a trap set by the Wolf and the Jackal. They said that they were "borrowing the passage to attack the Hu", but in fact they just wanted to use it as an excuse to divide Youzhou.
Liu Yu could not agree to these two points.
"Han Fu, do you really want to break off relations with Youzhou?" Liu Yu looked at Han Fu in a deep voice.
Han Fu was stunned by this momentum for a moment, then he smiled and bowed again and said, "Lord Bo'an, if you are as upright as your name suggests, why can't you agree to my suggestion?"
"As long as Lord Bo An does any one of the two things, I, Han Fu, hereby promise to lead all the troops in Jizhou back to the palace immediately and then prepare gifts to apologize."
After Han Fu finished speaking, Zhang Yang and other princes in Hebei also stood up and made the same promise.
Liu Yu held the armrest of the chair, feeling troubled for a moment.
However, Liu Zhaoqing frowned, glanced at Zhao Yun and Zhang Liao out of the corner of his eye, then slightly tilted his head and nodded slightly to Liu Bei.
