Chapter 25 Provocation
The man's nose was bleeding and he was furious. He raised his knife and slashed at Chen Yu.
Chen Yu pushed You Dazui behind her away and dodged by tilting her body, and the man attacked again.
When the head cook saw that something was not right, he wanted to step forward to persuade them, but he was afraid of the sharp light of the knife, so he only dared to stand far away and shout.
"Everyone, don't get excited. We can talk it out if we have something to say."
The man who was talking to the man before quickly stopped his knife, "Tu Si! Don't use the knife."
Tu Si's movements slowed down a bit and he wanted to move forward again, but someone took advantage of his pause to hug him and whispered something to him.
As Tu Si listened, his face changed again and again. The anger on his face subsided a little, but when he continued listening, his expression changed from anger to malice.
He looked at Chen Yu and said, "You hit me today, kneel down and kowtow to Grandpa, and Grandpa will pretend that this never happened."
Tu Si was very proud. Chen Yu raised her chin slightly and looked at him, "How about you kowtow to me, and I will pretend that you never said those words."
She had a provocative look on his face, and Tu Si's suppressed anger was about to come back, but after being reminded by the person next to him, he finally endured it.
"Boy, the military camp is not a place for a skinny guy like you to eat. You have to show your skills."
You Dazui stretched his neck behind Shen Yu and shouted, "He killed hundreds of Xijue people on the battlefield. Can you do it?"
Tu Si had heard of him, but those were all rumors.
He was born a mountain bandit. There was a rumor in the army that he had thousands of brothers in the mountains. In fact, there were not that many. It can be seen that rumors are easily exaggerated and cannot be fully trusted.
Besides, looking at the skinny arms and legs in front of him, he doesn't have the physique to chop hundreds of people on the battlefield. It's more like he's being chased and chopped by hundreds of people.
Tu Si sheathed his sword and looked down at Chen Yu, "Everyone can brag, but in the army, you have to speak with strength. Do you dare to compete with me?"
"Why not?" Shen Yu's eyes were as sharp as torches, and she had no intention of retreating.
Tu Si mocked, "Okay, I won't bully you. I'll let you have a full meal before we compete. We'll meet in the training ground at 5 p.m."
Tu Si and a few others left in a crowd, without even taking the food they were supposed to receive.
After receiving the food, I went back to distribute it. It took me nearly half an hour to get my meal, and the meat patties were already cold.
Several people sat together in the tent. You Dazui handed his meat pie to Chen Yu and whispered, "Eat more. We have more in the afternoon."
We need to compete in martial arts."
Yang Bang leaned against the wall and drank the broth. Hearing this, he asked, "What kind of martial arts competition?"
You Dazui briefly recounted the incident.
"I shouldn't have responded to that," You Dazui said with great regret, "otherwise he wouldn't have thought of challenging you."
"Then what do you want to take?" Yang Bang asked.
You Dazui said: "I was thinking of intimidating him first so that he would back down, but I didn't expect that he would not accept the intimidation."
You Dazui also heard rumors and had never seen Chen Yu chopping people with his own eyes, but no matter how he looked at it, he felt that the person who chopped down three hundred people was definitely not Chen Yu.
Look at those thin arms and legs, and that small face that looks like it could be smashed with a single punch.
He regretted it. If he hadn't said that to show off, Tu Si probably wouldn't have challenged Shan Paoer to a duel. He was just asking him to do a job.
"That Tu Si's arms are thicker than your thighs. I think we should stop comparing," said You Dazui.
Yang Bang said: "You are trying to boost others' morale and destroy your own prestige. I believe in Shan Paoer."
Chen Yu didn't realize who Shan Paoer was for a moment.
You Dazui said with a bitter face, "If you can't bear it by then, just admit defeat. It's not shameful to lose. Life is more important."
"What are you talking about?" Yang Bang disagreed, "What's wrong with our countrymen?"
After saying that, he looked at Shen Yu and added uncertainly: "Except... a little thin."
Chen Yu: “…”
It was almost noon when Chen Yu arrived late.
You Dazui followed behind Shen Yu, insisting on cheering him up, and even Yang Bang limped along with him on crutches.
There were already quite a few people gathered on the training ground, forming three layers around the arena.
Chen Yu looked calm, but You Dazui whispered behind her: "I clearly didn't say anything, why are there so many people here?"
"If you don't say anything, the other party won't say anything either?" Yang Bang retorted.
Before the competition even started, Tu Si had already predicted that he would win. Naturally, the more people knew about this kind of impressive thing, the better, and the news spread throughout the military camp in just one afternoon.
As they approached, the crowd below the ring automatically made way for them.
You Dazui and Yang Bang followed Shen Yu in. The people on both sides were all tall and strong, giving off a very oppressive feeling.
You Dazui couldn't help swallowing his saliva and said, "Prince Beilin usually feeds these people
What? Why do they all look so... strong. "
Chen Yu said calmly: "King Beilin is very strict in his management of his subordinates, and has high requirements for those who join the army. Those who can enter the ranks of the Xie...Prince are all the best in the army."
As she spoke, Shen Yu had already stopped in front of the ring.
Tu Si stood on the stage, looking down at her with contempt, and taunted her, "It's so late, I thought you were too scared to come."
"How come?" Chen Yu said, "No need to warm up, so naturally there's no need to come early."
Tu Si's face changed, meaning that he came so early to warm up?
He snorted coldly, "You're looking for death! No matter how hard you try, it's useless. If you kneel down and kowtow to admit defeat now, I can go easy on you later and not let you lose too badly."
Chen Yu lowered her head and tied her arms, saying, "I don't have the habit of cursing before a fight."
What I mean is, why are you nagging and complaining? Just do it.
A burst of suppressed laughter broke out in the crowd.
Tu Si: “…”
Fortunately, most of the people were from Beilin Qingyun Guard. They came here to watch the fun and they couldn’t lose face for their own people, so the laughter soon stopped.
"Let's get started. How do you want to compete?" Chen Yu raised her head and looked.
Tu Si said: "If I decide, I'm afraid someone will think I'm bullying you. I won't take advantage of you. You decide."
Shen Yu took a step forward, and her sleeve was suddenly grabbed by someone.
She turned around and saw Yang Bang leaning on a crutch with one hand and holding her with the other. He lowered his voice and said, "Why don't we compete?"
Chen Yu was surprised, "Didn't you say that you should not encourage others to be ambitious and destroy your own prestige?"
Yang Bang glanced at Tu Si and said, "I didn't know you wanted to compete with such a man. Look at his physique. His temples are slightly bulging. He must be an experienced man."
"Me too." Chen Yu said.
Yang Bang glanced at her, and his expression and eyes made it clear.
Chen Yu patted him on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, you won't lose face."
She walked forward, looking relaxed, and glanced at the weapon rack, saying, "I have some experience with swords, spears, halberds, axes, hooks, forks, sticks, lances, whips, maces, hammers, and claws. You can choose?"
The crowd buzzed and started talking, and many people booed.
This statement was too big. Even the most skilled guard around Xie Tingzhou would not dare to make such a bold statement.
