Chapter 14 Drawing of lots
Cangsong Daoren said to the many young disciples of Qingyunmen in the main hall: "Today, under the leadership of the senior brother of Daoxuan, my Qingyunmen is prosperous, far better than in the previous life, and there are countless outstanding people in the younger generation. Therefore, after the senior brother in charge of the sect discussed with the first seat of each vein, the number of people in the big test was increased to 64, so as not to regret the loss of pearls in the sea. ”
This is something that many disciples already knew before they came to Tongtian Peak.
Cangsong Daoren continued: "In this big test, the number of people has doubled, so there are some changes in the lottery. Look, everybody," he said, pointing to the open space on the right side of the hall, and when they looked over, they saw a large mahogany chest, boxy, with only a small hole on the upper side that could be reached out with an arm.
"In that mahogany box, there are a total of sixty-three wax pills, each of which contains a note, on which are written numbers from one to sixty-three," the disciples suddenly made a commotion, and Cangsong Daoist ignored it, and said: "After the lottery is completed, the number will be used as the standard, and so on, with one against sixty-four, two against sixty-three, three against sixty-two, and so on, and then in the second round, the winner of number one and sixty-four will be the winner of number two and sixty-three, and so on, until the final battle." Do you understand?"
The disciples of Qingyun Sect standing at the bottom of the hall were silent for a while, and suddenly someone said loudly: "May I ask Senior Uncle Cangsong, there are obviously sixty-four people, but how come there are only sixty-three wax pills?"
Cangsong Daoren was obviously prepared for this question, coughed dryly, and said: "The rules of this competition are that there are nine people in each of the seven veins of Qingyunmen, of which there is one more person in Changmen, but, cough cough, because there is only one line of the same sect that has sent a total of eight disciples, so there is one less, so there are only sixty-three people." ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone's eyes were attracted to Tian Buyi, the first seat of Dazhu Peak.
Tian Buyi's face flashed with anger, but he sat upright and did not move at all.
Qin Zhong looked in that direction, and sure enough, he saw a short and fat middle-aged Taoist sitting there. It's just different from the image of ordinary short and fat people and good and rich people, the first seat of this big bamboo peak, although it is short and fat, but there is a majestic color in its face, especially now, the anger on the face has not been completely restricted, and it is quite scary.
Although many disciples below had some discussions, their voices were not loud, so they quickly calmed down again.
Seeing that the discussion was quiet, the Cangsong Daoist said: "But this is not a difficult matter, among the sixty-three wax pills, as long as any disciple wins the number one, it is extremely lucky, because there is no opponent of the sixty-fourth, so he has a bye in the first round." ”
As soon as these words came out, there was another uproar among the disciples of Qingyunmen, but with the previous words as a foreshadowing, this time it quieted down faster.
Seeing that Cang Song had almost finished speaking, Dao Xuan, the head of the sect, stood up again and said to the many disciples in the hall: "In this case, let's go and draw lots." ”
After Dao Xuan finished speaking, the head of the sect walked out of the nine disciples, put their hands into the wooden box in turn, and grabbed a wax pill out.
After the head of the line, Long Shoufeng stepped forward.
Qin Zhong observed the expressions of everyone in the hall. I heard a few senior brothers next to me discussing how to grab the No. 1 lot.
Qin Chong said casually: "The strength is not enough, and it is for nothing to get lucky enough to pass a level with the battle-free card, the strength is strong enough, and there is no such war-free strip, and it will not have the slightest impact." Does it make sense for you to be so mindful?"
For Qin Chong to break the illusion in everyone's hearts, they all gritted their teeth at him for a while, and there was nothing they could do about him.
It didn't take long to arrive at Luoxia Peak, and everyone went to draw lots.
Qin Chong stepped forward with all the senior brothers and walked to the big mahogany box, and after several senior brothers had smoked it, Qin Chong reached into the wooden box and grabbed a wax pill and came out.
When I opened it, it was not the No. 1 sign.
Several senior brothers also hurriedly signed the lot, but they were disappointed, and no one drew the No. 1 lot.
Qin Zhong naturally expected this situation, and said secretly in his heart: "Ou Huang hasn't drawn yet, how can he give such an important sign to you and take away a bunch of non-balls." ”
The nine people gathered together, and they didn't speak for long, when they heard the Longshou Peak Cangsong Daoist say in a loud voice: "Who drew the No. 1 lot?"
The sound drowned out all the voices in the hall, and the hall immediately fell silent.
In the crowd, there was a small voice suddenly, with a hint of surprise and caution, and said, "Hui, Hui, Uncle Cangsong, here, here." ”
Everyone looked at it together, and they were stunned, only to see that standing in the crowd was a sixteen or seventeen-year-old young man with an ordinary appearance, and a hint of woodenness and timidity.
Seeing the expression on this young man's face, Zhao Tang asked in a low voice: "Who is this, he is also a genius under my Qingyun Sect who can participate in the Seven Veins Martial Arts, why is his expression so unconfident?"
What he asked was also what most people in Luoxia Peak wanted to ask.
Qin Zhong looked at Zhang Xiaofan, who was standing in the crowd, and said to the senior brother beside him: "Look at where he is standing, he should be a disciple of Dazhufeng." I heard that there was a village extermination tragedy at the foot of Qingyun Mountain 5 years ago, but only two young people were left alive, and one of them was accepted by Dazhufeng. Judging by his age, he should be the man. ”
Hearing Qin Chong say this, several senior brothers around him sighed.
I see.
has suffered misery since childhood, and only then has he developed such a character.
As he was talking, he saw that Zhang Xiaofan was surrounded by several of his senior brothers and sisters, talking and laughing on the side.
At this time, I heard that many elders were gathering over there, and Cangsong Daoist asked the disciples to go over later to record the signing.
Then I heard the head of the sect Dao Xuan start to speak at the top of the head.
Qin Zhong didn't care about what the head said, he just used this opportunity to secretly look at the many people in this hall.
I used to just imagine what these characters looked like in the book, but now I have the opportunity to take a serious look at them again.
Qi Hao and Lin Jingyu of the Dragon Head Peak have seen each other before, and they are indeed a talent, a dragon and a phoenix among people. But there was no need to pay more attention to those two now.
Looking at the crowd of the big bamboo peak, Song Daren looked up and looked similar to the personality of the senior brother.
That Tian Ling'er is very beautiful, with a fairy skirt. The character is very lively.。
No wonder Zhang Xiaofan is so infatuated with her, after all, Tian Ling'er, whether it is her appearance, personality, or concern for Zhang Xiaofan, is the most favorite type of Zhang Xiaofan at this stage, this kind of introverted, inferior, and less knowledgeable person.
In fact, from the perspective of a large environment, introverted, inferior, and average-looking people like Tian Ling'er, who is lively and beautiful, and the most important thing is that they are willing to associate with themselves and care about themselves.
But on the other hand, people are beautiful, have a cheerful personality, and have a very high talent, how can they fall in love with people like you?
