Chapter 23: The Battle of Qi 1
The next day, Sora also came to the Spiritual Altar early in the morning like everyone else. Most of them came to see the excitement, and only a few people wanted to participate.
The rules of the competition vary from year to year, and only when the competition is about to start, Dongdong will inform you of the rules, so you basically have no way to prepare in advance.
Today, the disciples who wish to participate in the competition will all sit in front of them, and the disciples who are watching will consciously sit in the back.
Dongdong Dongyi in Youlingtai has already arrived, and there are still Mingshuai and Jin Ling by their side, so it is possible that they will also watch the game today, but I didn't expect that this Dongdongdong Hydroxy competition can actually invite Mingrou over.
Seeing the location of those disciples who were going to participate in the competition, he swam straight ahead.
I felt someone bump into me and squeeze together, and I turned my head to look back, it was the woman in red who passed the test that day, and the woman looked up at me. And showed a hint of surprise.
"Are you going to participate in the competition too?" said as if looking at the bearish position.
"Well......" Empty nodded.
"Then we'll see you in a moment. After a moment of silence, his gaze fell on Kongkong's face, his gaze was serious and serious, as if he had regarded Kongkong as a competitor.
"You're going to participate?" the familiar voice sounded behind him. You don't have to look back to know that it was the purple, and the mocking tone was like a bomb dropped in the crowd, and everyone's eyes were focused on the empty body.
Just listen to a contemptuous smile. All kinds of talk are overwhelming.
So what, who said that those who are not completely condensed can't participate, it's just to try. Success or failure will be determined. I want to close my eyes and refresh myself with this empty space, waiting for all the contestants to come.
The appearance of the emptiness surprised Dongdong Hydroxy and Mingrou, and in previous years, almost only disciples in the late stage of condensation would come to participate in the test match. There are very few disciples in the middle stage of condensation, or even in the early stages of condensation.
"Mingrou, did you bring this disciple back from the selection table?" Dongdong raised his eyebrows lightly and transmitted the voice to Mingrou.
"Lord Dong, which disciple are you talking about?" There were many disciples in the field, and Ming Rou was not sure that Dong Dong Xuan was the disciple who asked. I had to ask politely.
If it weren't for the invitation of the Spirit King, it would be impossible for Dong Dong Hydroxy to come to teach these disciples of the Condensation Period, he was already in the Fugue Stage a hundred years ago, and he had an unusual relationship with the Spirit King. Even though he was teaching and preaching here, he didn't seem to be afraid of the Spirit King at all.
"The one that condensed in advance. Needless to say, Dong Dong Hydroxy also knew that the empty face was caused by early condensation.
"No, she brought herself back from the selection table and has never been out of the valley since. Mingrou didn't know why Dongdong asked like that.
"Oh. Hearing this, Dongdong Hydroxy glanced at the empty space, and secretly thought, if he has not been out of the valley and has been in contact with human cultivation, he can calculate people's hearts, and it is also rare.
"To-sama, but what's wrong with the empty space?" Mingrou couldn't help but wonder why Dong Dong Hyo would ask this question like this.
"Oh, nothing, it's just that she was good at the time of my preaching. I didn't expect her to come to the competition in the first year. After speaking, he seemed to think of something, and the corners of his mouth rose and smiled slightly.
Seeing this, Mingrou couldn't feel what Dongda's words meant, after the last time the emptiness was condensed in advance, her heart was depressed for a while, but then she seemed to be self-resting and cultivating harder, and Jin Ling occasionally mentioned it to her. But this first time I practiced the hundred techniques, I participated in the competition, but my temperament became impetuous again. Thinking of this, he cautiously glanced at Dong Dong Hydroxy.
Seeing Mingrou's reaction, Dongdong immediately understood Mingrou's thoughts, and immediately said: "Since there are disciples in the early stage of condensation to participate, it is worth encouraging, so it is better to change the way of competition this year." ”
Mingrou listened to Dong Dong's words, not tired of empty participation, but more interested. I was relieved a lot, too.
When the Youling Platform gradually filled, Dong Dong glanced at everyone, and the coercion suddenly opened the hall to silence, and then he spoke: "The disciples who want to participate in this competition come forward." ”
Hearing this, the disciples who had been preparing to participate in the front all got up and walked to the middle of the field, and Kongkong was among them.
When he stepped forward, he had already made a preliminary observation, and when he glanced at it, he knew the number of disciples who participated in the competition, except for himself in the early stage of condensation, the remaining 24 were all in the late stage of condensation, and it seemed that if he wanted to get those treasures, he still needed to outwit them.
Seeing that the disciples of the competition had already stood up, Dongdong Xuancai said again: "In this competition, I will put you in the mortal world, and there is no cultivator ......" Hearing this, some disciples seemed to be happy, as if they were happy that they didn't have to fight against human cultivators. Then I heard Dong Dong Hyo continue: "You don't need to look for anything. ”
Now everyone is starting to be a little confused, in previous years, they have avoided or beaten those cultivators, and they can win by getting the designated items first, but the environment is different, what is going on this year, these two key things are not needed.
"This time I'll limit you to within a hundred steps of the market. You can't use spiritual power during the first two pillars of incense, but you can use spiritual power during the last stick of incense. All you have to do is find as many people as you can to compete with and expel them from the dice. The expulsion method is to touch the opponent's right hand with the left hand, but you don't have to worry about your life, if you have a life worry, the Wanxiang sieve will automatically pop it out. But remember not to hurt those mortals, if you hurt mortals, you will immediately throw the dice. The one with the highest number of evictions wins. ”
As soon as I heard it, the first two sticks of incense were to find out the other party, and the second stick of incense was clearly timed, which means that you can fight to the death, and someone will stand there and let you touch your hands, and you can touch your hands until the other party has no power to parry.
Dong Dong Xuan glanced at everyone, and then said, "In addition, I have to tell you that if you touch the right hand of a mortal, you will be automatically out." To be fair, I'll randomly transform your appearance when I teleport you in. ”
Does this mean that my face and tail can be hidden? No worries? This is good news, and since all worries are solved, it is even less terrible. It's also an opportunity to find out how far your own magic is compared to theirs.
"Stygian. Jin Ling couldn't help but feel nervous after listening to the rules of the competition of the East Lord, didn't he understand that there was a fight in the end?
Ming Rou didn't understand, but just nodded slightly to Jin Ling, indicating that it was okay. I believe that this person has his own thoughts, so don't worry.
Not long after, Dongdong raised the ten thousand elephant dice, shrouding all the contestants in light. After listening to the rules, everyone was thinking about it, and when they saw the light, they looked up and fell into the light.
Blind for a moment, then open your eyes and listen.
"Master, this is this year's account book, you see, just got the goods, I have already sent Shunxi into the warehouse. ”
Hearing the sound and looking up, a person in front of him with a sixtieth armor with a stern face handed over a booklet and placed it in front of him, as if he was going to hand it over to himself for inspection.
Glancing around from the corner of his eye, the wooden house, the roof tiles can be vaguely seen outside the carved window, the house is full of wooden cabinets with locks, and there are only himself and the people in front of him in the house.
"Yes. Seeing that the person in front of him had already put down the account book, he was waiting next to him, so he had to check the account book himself now. I had to answer first.
The man's voice jumped out of his throat, and I have to say that this transfiguration ability is really powerful, and he was stunned for a moment.
Pretending to open the account book, Mojia Village's new rice five stones, Beiyao Town's new rice fifteen Dan looked like this, and there were a few empty hollows.
"How much more Chen Mi is there?" pretended to stop looking and looked up at the old man, who was still standing in front of him with his hands tied.
"The paving adds up to about 100 stones. The old man's voice hesitated slightly.
"I want the numbers accurate. ”
"The old slave will check it. The old man trembled and took out a bunch of keys from his waist, and retreated to a cabinet behind him to open the lock and find it.
"Give me the key, bring me some new rice and show me the new rice. With that, he got up.
When the old man heard this, he hurriedly handed the key to his empty hand, and then opened the door and exited the room.
When the old man exited the door, he placed the key on the table. When I first handed over the key, I wanted to touch his hand, but there was no response. Judging from the attitude and behavior of the old man, it must not be the same clan that came in with him, which has been verified.
The empty body leaned against the window and looked closely.
Sure enough, this building is in a street market, and when I just looked at it sideways, I already knew that this was the second floor, which was a rice shop. He looked at the street again and sat back down at his desk. After a while, the old man knocked at the door.
"Sir. The old man didn't say much, and placed a liter of rice firmly in front of me.
"Yes. What's going on in the store lately?" he didn't raise his head and put his hand into the bucket to check the texture of the rice.
"Back to the master, there is no big deal, this year's rain is enough, but a few days ago in the warehouse due to the accumulation of too much old rice, the new rice can not enter the warehouse temporarily, piled up in the store for a few days, this will be the rest of the old rice moved. ”
"What do you mean?" looked up, and the old man seemed a little surprised, and I asked his opinion.
"Old slave, old slave thinks that although old rice is available, but this year's rain is sufficient, mass production is abundant, and more can be stored, but sufficient rain also has an impact on the warehouse, so. ”
"So, let's sell the old rice at a reduced price. "I understand, this old man is saying that he wants to clear Chen rice as soon as possible.
"Sir. When the old man heard this, the corners of his mouth moved slightly, and his face was happy.
"Didn't hear clearly?" It seems that his attitude has changed, and the old man is rarely uncomfortable.
Judging from the old man's attitude, he must have been surprised by this decision, and this old man is probably a picker. The old man must usually do whatever the old man says, and obey his words.
"I heard you clearly, I heard you clearly. The old man trembled and prepared his archers to retreat.
"Wait, find someone to go to the noodle stall opposite and ask for a noodle table, and let the boss serve it himself. Then go to the cloth shop opposite and pull up a three-foot red cloth, find someone to write the price, and hang it in front of the door. Put a stone of rice outside the door and line up to buy it, one at a time. The money for the cloth was also taken by the fat fellow at the tailor's shop. Do you remember clearly?"
"Yes. The old man still didn't say anything, but this time his expression seemed to be a little confused.
About a stick of incense time passed, and he didn't go out of the second floor and stayed in the house to observe.
