Chapter 46 Chapter 46: Early Spring in the Southern Kingdom

Liu Sishao and Zhao Guan walked into the hall side by side, and said: "Many of the guests who came today are heroes. Didn't you say that you have always admired martial arts figures?"I will introduce a few to you today. Liu Sishao worshiped under the Sheng family of the martial arts family, and he also likes to make friends with knights in the Jianghu. There are always hundreds of martial arts people who come to the banquet that night.Liu Sishao came forward to greet a group of martial artists, and introduced a few to Zhao Guan, all of whom were local boxers.Zhao Guan felt very bored, and was about to find an excuse to escape, when Liu Si Shao suddenly patted him on the shoulder, pointed at the crowd, and said: "This heroine is amazing, I will introduce you for you." !

Zhao Guan followed his finger and saw a girl in Tsing Yi standing in front of a white porcelain Guanyin by the wall. She was seventeen or eighteen years old, her skin was as white and tender as porcelain, her cheeks were naturally rosy, her big eyes were dark and bright, and her eyebrows Thick and straight, with a bright red mouth and two shallow dimples on the side of the mouth, there is a heroic spirit in the handsome appearance.Zhao Guan thought to himself: What a bright and cheerful girl! It happened that the girl turned her head to look at him, and the two of them met each other's eyes. The girl was not shy, she looked straight at him and smiled slightly.Zhao Guan also responded with a smile, his heart moved, and he asked: Liu Si, who is this?

Liu Sishao laughed and said: I knew you would want to meet Miss Li, come, let me introduce you.The two walked around the hall and came to the girl. Fourth Young Master Liu saluted and said, "Miss Li, are you having fun tonight?" Miss Li smiled back and said: "Today's banquet is very lively."Daddy is not in good health, so he was not able to come. Let me thank the Fourth Young Master for his invitation.Liu Sishao said a few words politely, then introduced Zhao Guan, and said, "Miss Li, this is my friend Young Master Jiang, with a congratulatory letter by name."Brother Jiang Xian, this Miss Li is really amazing. She is the only daughter of Fourth Master Li, the leader of the Green Gang. She is known as the early spring of the Southern Kingdom.

Zhao Guan thought to himself: It turns out that he is a person in the Jianghu, and the Li family's reputation for flying knives has been heard a little bit.He bowed and said, "Miss Li, Xiaosheng is polite."Miss Li stared at him, with a slight smile on her lips, she bowed back, her bright eyes never leaving his face.Liu Sishao walked away, and Zhao Guan chatted with her, only to find out that she was the daughter of Li Sibiao, a dragon in the south of the Yangtze River, named Huamei.Zhao Guan has been in Hangzhou for several years, he has heard of Li Sibiao's name, and knows that he is a very high-ranking altar leader in the Qing Gang, and a confidant of the leader Zhao Zixiang.The only daughter, Li Huamei, is bold, bright, smart and capable. She became her father's assistant at a very young age and also held a position in the Youth Gang.

Zhao Guanzheng was talking to Li Huamei, suddenly there was a commotion in the hall, the servants asked all the guests to move aside, to make room for the martial artist to practice kung fu.Amidst the applause from the crowd, a pair of brothers entered the stage first, and they fought with each other using Arhat Fist.The two punched fiercely, shouted like thunder, you come and go, it is obviously a set of well-practiced counter moves.Seeing that they played beautifully, the spectators applauded.Li Huamei smiled and watched, Zhao Guan looked at her long eyelashes, and said: I heard that Miss Li is very skilled.It's useless to me, and I have no strength to restrain the chicken. Seeing these big brothers punching and kicking, they seem to be very powerful, but they are very ashamed, and I don't understand it.

Li Huamei smiled, turned around and said: These people are just flamboyant, nothing to see.Mr. Jiang, don't you know martial arts?There is a Nursing Master surnamed Ma in Liu's family who is very good at martial arts. If Fourth Young Master Liu asks him to come out and give a few hands later, it will be worth watching.You are familiar with Liu Sishao, maybe you can ask Master Ma to teach you a few tricks. Zhao Guan shook his head and said: I am born weak, my aptitude is too poor, I can't learn any kung fu.I went to urge Liu Si to ask Master Ma to show his skills.He carefully concealed his identity in the city of Hangzhou, although he didn't want this beautiful girl to despise him, he had no choice but to pretend he didn't know martial arts.But Li Huamei said, "No need."You see, Master Ma is standing there, I guess he is about to play.

Zhao Guan looked up and saw a bald man like a tower standing in the corner of the arena, his muscles were all tangled up, he was obviously a master of outsiders, it was the Liu family's guarding martial artist, Master Ma.He was holding a stack of stone slabs about an inch thick, and when the two brothers practicing Arhat Boxing retreated, he walked into the arena, put the stone slabs on the ground, and clasped fists in all directions.After the audience calmed down, Master Ma took a breath, picked up a stone slab, threw it up, and punched it, but there was a loud bang, and the slate shattered into more than ten pieces.Amid the applause and applause of the crowd, Master Ma threw another stone slab and kicked it with his legs, cracking the stone slab.Next, he performed breaking stones with elbows, breaking bricks with fingers and claws, and breaking stones with iron heads.Zhao Guan thought to himself: It's not bad if the external function has been trained like this.But if he really wants to fight against a master, although his muscles are strong, they can't match the palm strength of an inner master.

He turned his head to look at Li Huamei, and saw a tall man suddenly appearing beside her, the man lowered his head and said to Li Huamei: Junior Sister, why are you here alone? Li Huamei said, "I'm with Mr. Jiang."He introduced them.The man was her father's apprentice, named Zhang Lei, he greeted Zhao Guan in a rough voice, then lowered his head to discuss Master Ma's martial arts with his junior sister.Not long after, Zhang Lei raised his head and saw Zhao Guan still standing beside him, he gave him a cold look, his expression was full of disgust, clearly saying: Boy, you'd better stay away from my junior sister.

Zhao Guan saw that his brothers and sisters were talking intimately and neglected him, he felt bored and walked away.Suddenly there was a faint sound of the piano coming from the inner hall, which was light and melodious, extremely pleasant.When Zhao Guan was in the Qingfeng Pavilion, he often saw sisters practicing piano skills. He knew that it was an extremely difficult piece "Sunset Xiaogu". People can play this piece.Attracted by the sound of the zither, he wandered to the door of the inner hall, and saw that there were many female relatives in the hall with his head, and it was inconvenient to go in, so he leaned on the door and watched.But seeing all the female relatives surrounded, a young singing girl was sitting on the table, wearing a light red blouse, lowering her eyebrows and bowing her head, playing the piano in her hand, her red lips slightly parted, while playing, she sang "A Moonlit Night on the Spring River" by Tang poet Zhang Ruoxu:

The tide of the Spring River is even with the sea level, and the bright moon on the sea coexists with the tide.Twinkling twinkling with the waves for thousands of miles, where is the spring river without moonlight.The river flows around Fangdian, and the moon shines on the flowers and forests like sleet.Frost flows in the air without being aware of flying, but white sand on Tingshang cannot be seen.The river and the sky are all the same color without any dust, and the moon is alone in the bright sky.Who on the riverside sees the moon for the first time?When did Jiangyue shine on people at the beginning of the year?The generations of life are endless, and Jiang Yue is only similar year after year.I don't know who Jiang Yue is waiting for, but I see the Yangtze River sending water.The white clouds are drifting away, and Qingfengpu is full of worries.Who's boating tonight?Where is Acacia Mingyue Building?The poor moon wandering upstairs, should be taken away from the makeup mirror.The Yuhu curtain cannot be rolled away, but it is returned by the brush on the anvil.At this time, we look at each other but don't hear each other, and I hope that the moonlight will shine on you.The swan geese fly long and light, and the fish and dragons dive into the water to write.Last night, the dream of Xiantan fell into flowers, and poor Chun Ban did not return home.The river is flowing like spring, and the moon is falling in the river pool, and the moon is slanting westward.The slanting moon sinks and hides the sea fog, and Jieshi Xiaoxiang has an infinite road.I don't know how many people will return in the moonlight, but the falling moon shakes the trees in the river.

The singing voice is graceful and delicate, and this ancient poem is sung lightly and gracefully, with deep affection and heartfelt words, and no one is moved.Zhao Guan was even more amazed, this qin piece was originally very difficult to play, but this geisha was able to play it and sing it at the same time, and she sang so skillfully, it is really not easy.Listening to the qin music in his ears, he couldn't help but think of all the past events in the Qingfeng Pavilion when he was a child, his eyes were slightly moist.He stared, trying to see the face of the singing girl clearly, but was blocked by a few listeners who stood up and applauded.From a distance, I saw the singing girl getting up and saluting, and then turned to go behind the screen.Zhao Guan felt slightly disappointed, turned his head and saw that Mr. Situ was also standing by the door listening, he asked: "Which family is the girl who played the piano and sang music just now?" Mr. Situ was obviously also attracted by the qin music, and said: I heard that she is from Suzhou, Liu Sishao invited her to stay in the mansion for a while, and specially sang music for the old lady of the Liu family. I think she is going to have a banquet today, so I also invite her to come out to the family. The female relatives perform skills.Zhao Guan nodded, thinking: So she is from Suzhou, her hometown.But I don't know which yard it belongs to?
