Chapter 204: What About People?
Yunzhou City, just after three o'clock.
The sky was like an overturned furnace of molten gold, and golden light poured down, sprinkling everywhere to the east of Yunzhou City.
The military exercise ground on the east side of General Bai's Mansion, the huge military exercise platform with a horizontal and vertical length of 300 zhang, seems to be covered with a layer of golden veil, sacred and solemn.
Around the exercise platform, it was even more crowded at this time.
The battle of the cultivators of the Mortal Realm had not appeared for a long time, at least not as openly as it was today, which naturally attracted countless people to come.
Moreover, after two days of fermentation, the terrifying odds were finally fixed at one hundred and twenty-one.
At this time, whether it is to watch the excitement or to participate in gambling, they are all around this military stage.
"It's been a long time since Yunzhou City has been as lively as it is today. Directly north of the exercise platform, on a watch seat three feet above the ground, a person sighed.
He has gray hair, but his whole face is red and without a trace of wrinkles, and it is difficult to tell his specific age from the surface.
A well-fitting snow-white armor failed to completely cover Kong Wu's powerful body, and the red cloak behind him swayed in the wind, adding a touch of majesty to it.
Behind him, there were four other people, and Iron Ruthless was among them.
At this time, Tie ruthlessly took a step forward and said, "General Bai, I ......"
Bai Nanan raised his hand and interrupted Tie Ruthless's words, "I've heard about your nephew, and I understand your behavior a few days ago, I don't blame you." ”
After speaking, he turned his head and looked at the rest of the people, "No matter what, we must ensure the safety of the people today, and we must not hurt innocent people because of the dueling." ”
"Yes!" the three of them took the order together, turned and walked down the high platform.
They had already transferred elite soldiers in accordance with Bai Nan'an's orders, and there was a soldier standing guard in every zhang around the exercise platform.
The appearance of the soldiers blocked the distance between the onlookers and the exercise platform, but it could not stop their enthusiasm.
The whole scene was extremely noisy, and those standing in front were glad that they came early and occupied such a good position.
The one who is slightly back is a little annoyed and wants to squeeze into the front row for easy viewing.
But now it's almost people next to each other, no matter how much strength you have, no matter how high your cultivation is, unless you throw the people in the front row, it's impossible to squeeze through.
Gradually, some people came up with the idea of buying a place with money.
A small number of people are still able to buy it, but more often than not, they are directly rejected.
Just as everyone was trying to find a more suitable place to watch, someone came in the gap between the soldiers and the drill platform.
They were uniformly dressed, and although the number was small, they still stood out in the chaotic crowd around them.
And, of course, their actions are the ones that are eye-catching.
They passed through the distance between the soldier and the drill platform, all the way unimpeded, reached the center of the drill platform, and retreated directly towards the crowd.
It was so natural to occupy a great position in the first row.
Those who were squeezed backwards dared not speak out in anger at this time.
There is no way, that group of people, no one in Yunzhou City knows everyone, who dares not let the sect leader of the Cloud Sword Sect have a team of three thousand?
With the beginning of the Cloud Sword Sect, more and more sect forces have followed suit.
Of course, these sect forces are definitely ranked first in Yunzhou City.
For example, the Xinghan Sect, which is also one of the four major sects.
Gradually, the positions in the first row were occupied by the large and middle sects of Yunzhou City, and those who had no sects, no factions and small sects had to stand in the back aggrievedly.
You can see it with your feet up, and you don't know what to grab!
Their mentality, for the most part, is like this.
The people in the back are sour, and the people in front are similar.
"Yo, isn't this the Sect Master of Lang?"
"Is he? He's the one who's going to duel with Shen Feixue?"
"I'm afraid he won't have a chance. ”
"There are no absolutes in everything, what if there is a surprise waiting for the next moment?
The two people who spoke, one was sloppy, and the other was the hall master of the Dou Hall, a few days ago, when the Xinghan Sect intervened to arrest Shen Feixue, they already had a grudge in their hearts, and they just happened to be standing together at this time, so they naturally couldn't help but laugh.
Lang Sanqian glanced at the two people next to him, but did not answer.
"Surprise, there is indeed a surprise!" he sneered in his heart, the high-level members of the Star Cold Sect's Astrological Sect were all here at this time, they must not have imagined that someone was beating their various casino stalls.
Lang Sanqian not only did not respond, but also stopped the elders around him who wanted to retaliate.
"There's no need to be like them. He whispered.
And the sloppy two over there saw that Lang Sanqian did not respond, and they also lost interest.
At this time, over the exercise platform, several figures slowly fell.
It was the four guards of the Qianhu Mansion, at this time, the four of them were carrying a chair on their shoulders, and on the chair, the person who leaned on the armrest to support his head was Li Chiyan, one of the protagonists today.
"When did he become so fond of putting on a show?"
"yes, he wasn't like that before, was he?"
"Do you want to give that man a dismissal?"
The people around were surprised, in their impression, Li Chiyan was not this kind of official person, but today, he was carried by four guards with chairs, which ......
The most important thing is that he has obviously fallen on the stage, but Li Chiyan does not look like he wants to get up.
Still half-lying on the chair, with one hand on his head, leisurely.
The discussion of the surrounding people continued for a while before it ended.
Now they care about someone else.
As the golden sun gradually rises and the weather is hot, everyone's mood has been a little impetuous.
Because the time has come at this time, but the person who wants to duel with Li Chiyan has not yet appeared.
Don't?
He didn't dare to come?"
A terrifying thought gradually spread among the crowd.
If they really don't dare to come, then who will win and who will lose this duel? How will the gambling they participate in be settled?
A quarter of an hour passed, and Shen Feixue still did not appear.
Originally, it was just a conjecture in my heart, but at this time it was already being discussed in a whisper.
And in the words, it is no longer that expectation, with the gradually hot sun, people's mood has also become irritable, between words, naturally it will not be so relaxed, there is anything unpleasant.
In the midst of this irritable mood, there is a person, in a dense crowd, in a dilemma.
Around this person, there was a look of disdain.
"Brother, you want to find a good position, can you also make up a nice excuse?"
"That's it, I've used your excuse before, it's outdated. ”
"I'm really going up to duel......" Shen Feixue was trapped in the crowd, looking helpless.
In fact, he had already come, and he was defenseless, and plunged headlong into the crowd, only to find that he had ignored the power of the people.
At the beginning, if you use the star-chasing sword shadow and step on the shoulders of the crowd, it is not difficult.
But now, he was trapped in the crowd, surrounded by four big men, and even if he cast the star-chasing sword shadow, it would be too late.
"Don't say it, I want you too, but I can't. ”
"If you really go to a duel, I still advise you not to go, Li Qianhu is one of the few strong people in Yunzhou City, just if you go up like this and die under his hands, it is an insult to him. ”
The people around you didn't take Shen Feixue's words to heart at all.
Indeed, the people who come to the duel are trapped in the crowd of onlookers, this kind of rare thing in the ages, who will believe it?
