Chapter 938: Queen: What’s wrong with a 20-year-old boy picking up a hammer!

After the battle between Du Yu and Zhang Jue at Liuzikou Pass, the pass walls and other facilities have long been repaired.

But everyone knows that the battle at Luzikou was extremely dangerous, but few people know that although Wuhekou Pass was recaptured very easily, the recaptured pass was destroyed in many places by the Mobei people. Just repairing and reinforcing it took Du Yu, Meng Qin and others a lot of effort.

Fortunately, this first pass facing the northern desert now stands again between two mountains and is still majestic.

The commander guarding the pass is now the most powerful general under Meng Qin, Lu Cunxiao.

It is rumored that Lü Cunxiao was born with supernatural powers and had no father or mother. He was rescued by a kind-hearted hunter by accident, and then joined the army and was discovered by Meng Qin.

Two Xunlei gilded hammers and a horse lance put Zhang Jue on the must-kill list of the people in Mobei at that time. Lu Cunxiao was second only to Du Yu, Meng Qin, Li Xuance and Yu Yunwen in Yan.

"Is this hammer really worth fifty taels of gold?"

"Nonsense, what our General Lu said himself, how could it be false? Didn't you see the fifty taels of gold right there?"

"I heard that a few days ago, a great master with the strength of the eighth rank tried to get it, but he couldn't lift it."

"Who said it wasn't? I was there that day. Oh my God, you didn't see the scene. It seemed that the eighth-rank master used some means to make people feel different. It was very mysterious. I heard that it was something very rare for people below the legendary Grandmaster to be able to use it. But the sledgehammer didn't move at all."

"Is it true? Even an eighth-rank master can't lift it? I heard that this General Lu is only a fourth-rank master."

…

There are people living inside the pass. Some of them are people who voluntarily come to the pass to contribute their efforts. Then there are those who come here to do some small business to make a living for people entering and leaving the pass.

However, in recent days, there are many people from the underworld. After all, not all of them are willing to join the army. Some of them are self-reliant and have some martial arts skills, so they go directly to Mobei to kill people. Of course, there are also many people from all walks of life.

There was no sign that this place was littered with corpses just a few months ago.

The rapid recovery was possible thanks to the efforts of Du Yu and others.

"Su Changan, don't give me that idea!"

Although the pass is not very big, there are two streets. Right next to the small noodle stall where the black gold hammer is placed, a man and a woman are sitting at the table. The handsome man looks at the woman wearing a veil opposite him who is staring at the hammer and immediately warns her.

The woman wearing a veil showed helplessness on her face, but she still lowered her voice: "Xia Qingge! Fifty taels! And it's gold!"

The man is Xia Qingge, a woman dressed as a man.

The woman was Su Changan, she looked the same, but she was wearing a veil.

Xia Fengxiang picked up the pieces of mutton in the bowl and put them in front of Su Changan's lips: "That was also the money you gave to Lu Cunxiao, you still want to take it back!"

Su Changan was eating mutton, feeling helpless.

But looking at the sledgehammer, even though it looks huge and intimidating, what can I say, you can just pick it up and it will work.

Don't say that you have reached your limit, it seemed to be possible before?

In fact, there was a strong man with the strength of the third rank who was trying to pick up the sledgehammer with both hands.

Xia Fengxiang saw it and whispered, "Eat!"

Su Changan looked back at Xia Fengxiang again and sighed. He felt sad that he couldn't make money by relying on his own abilities.

At this time, the shop owner brought over the barbecue and pancakes, and looked at Xia Fengxiang with a smile: "It seems that this young man is also a man of the world, and I see that you two have been looking at the sledgehammer. Do you want to try it too?"

Xia Fengxiang smiled and said, "I'm just curious, I don't plan to try it."

But after saying that, Xia Fengxiang asked, "Shopkeeper, why did General Lu put this thing here? To make a jackpot?"

When the shopkeeper heard this, he immediately laughed and said, "Sir, you don't know. It seems that it is General Lu who is making trouble."

Xia Fengxiang was stunned: "Nonsense?"

When Su Changan was eating, her veil was slightly lifted. When she looked up at the shop owner, the veil naturally covered her face completely.

The shopkeeper was at a loss whether to laugh or cry: "At the beginning, what they gave was not gold, but an official position."

Hearing this, Xia Fengxiang smiled lightly and gave him an official position?

The shopkeeper continued, "General Lu's original words were, 'I was bored, so many people from the martial arts world came here. I heard that you are very capable, so I'm sure you can easily pick up the weapon used by a mere fourth-rank warrior. I'll put it here. If you can pick it up, I'll give you my position as the Eagle General."

The shop owner even put his hands on his hips and grinned, imitating it so vividly that some people around him laughed out loud.

The shopkeeper also looked at Xia Fengxiang with a wry smile on his face: "Just tell me, is this nonsense? He said he was bored and wanted to give away his official position. But it seems that Marshal Li Xuance knew about this and scolded General Lu, so he changed it to gold. Moreover, this gold belongs to the Empress and His Majesty. Every soldier in our pass has been given a lot of money, otherwise General Lu would not have been able to come up with so much money."

When the shopkeeper said this, someone on the side started to make a noise: "Your kid didn't study and went to join the army. He was lucky. He must have earned at least three taels of silver."

The shopkeeper smiled and said nothing more. He just looked at Xia Fengxiang and said, "My child was originally a scholar, but with the people of Mobei, he couldn't continue his studies and said he wanted to join the army. I simply followed his wish and brought him here. He served in the army and I opened a noodle stall. We are always together."

Xia Fengxiang smiled lightly: "This General Lu is like this, aren't you afraid of him being the garrison commander?"

The shopkeeper was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "My lord, you don't know that I was a soldier before. I almost crossed the Erna River with the late emperor! Although General Lu looks like this and is not as steady as General Qin, in fact, the more people can't pick up the hammer when it is thrown there, the more at ease they feel. Why? General Lu is so powerful. He can play with the hammer casually in his hand. Such a defender feels at ease. And sometimes I wonder if General Lu threw it there on purpose to make us feel at ease."

At this point, the shopkeeper chuckled and said, "If you want to try it, go ahead and try it. I've been there to join in the fun, it's not shameful."

After saying this, the shopkeeper bowed and turned to leave. In fact, he wanted to say more. After all, he loved to talk about these things. He wanted to talk about the Empress and Wuping Town, and also about the Empress's affairs and so on. After all, life was good. Even if the people from Mobei were coming, there was nothing to be afraid of. The situation in Yan was the same as when the late emperor came. He felt at ease for no reason in his heart. But it would be bad if he said too much, otherwise it would cause trouble.

Su Changan looked at Xia Fengxiang: "Do you want to try?"

But just as he asked, he saw Xia Fengxiang glaring at him, and Su Changan curled his lips: "I'm warning you, I have a domestic violence prepared for you!"

But seeing Xia Fengxiang's eyes change when he looked at him, Su Changan immediately changed his words: "What I mean is that I am always ready for you to abuse me."

Xia Fengxiang rolled his eyes at Su Changan, but said, "Lü Cunxiao doesn't know what's going on with you yet, let alone that I'm coming here to take a look, so don't do anything that would expose your identity."

Su Changan asked, "Can a 20-year-old boy reveal his identity by picking up a sledgehammer?"

Xia Fengxiang immediately replied: "You are a girl now!"

Su Changan curled his lips, his self-esteem was hurt, but he looked at his wife and said, "Do you know that you are becoming more and more perverted?"

Xia Fengxiang looked straight at Su Changan: "You are wearing a veil on your head, and you are a woman. You picked up a sledgehammer like that. Do you think you will be exposed? There are not many people like you in Daxia. And you said I am a pervert, think about yourself!"

But just when Su Changan was about to speak, he turned his head and looked towards the sledgehammer.

I saw a sixth-rank martial artist walking to the side of the sledgehammer.
