Chapter 154: The Assembly Begins
Ning Mingzhe's sudden appearance made everyone else a little surprised.
After the crowd of onlookers dispersed, Qin Sheng led a group of people to the restaurant on the side and sat down. At this time, there was still some time before the martial arts conference, so Qin Sheng was not in a hurry.
Accidentally met Ning Mingzhe today, Qin Sheng was also very happy in his heart, this fat man can be regarded as his first friend in this life, and he is also a partner who can trust his life.
It's just that soon after Ning Mingzhe was sent to the northwest border by Ning Yuanwu, the Qin family fell into the middle of the road, and the two never met again.
No one would have thought that they would meet on the street today, and they would meet in such a form.
Hearing that the fat man still called him the boss before, Qin Sheng knew in his heart that this fat man had not alienated himself because of the changes in the Qin family.
Looking at the fat man sitting there eating barbecue, Qin Sheng smiled slightly and said, "Fat man, you are also here to participate in the martial arts conference this time?"
While eating barbecue, the fat man said vaguely: "It's not that the old man at home likes to toss, so he has to come back to participate." ”
Speaking of this, the fat man smiled: "But I told the old man, as long as this conference can enter the top thirty-two, there is no need to go back to that deserted place, from now on, you and I will join forces, I see who in Ziyang City dares to go against our brothers." ”
Qin Sheng looked at the fat man with a smile and a smile, before the Qin family declined, Qin Sheng couldn't practice martial arts because of qualifications, plus Qin Ruhai was in charge, every day when he had nothing to do, he was going to cause trouble with the fat man, originally Qin Sheng was inspired to be a playboy in this life.
It's a pity that the sky doesn't follow people's wishes, no one expected that Qin Ruhai, who had won a hundred battles, would be defeated, and this first defeat was to bury his own life along with the elite disciples of the Qin family.
I have to say that the world is impermanent, and God obviously played a big joke on Qin Sheng.
Seeing that Qin Sheng didn't speak, the fat man thought of something in vain, put down the food in his hand, and said with a straight face: "Boss, the two of us have known each other since childhood, and I know your skills very well, although such a thing has happened to the Qin family now, but I believe that with the boss's ability, I will definitely be able to revive the Qin family, if there is anything that needs my fat man's help, even if the boss speaks, I will definitely help." ”
Qin Sheng was a little stunned by the fat man's sudden solemn tone, and after reacting, he just patted the fat man's shoulder and said, "Don't worry, we are brothers, as long as there is a need, we will not be hypocritical." ”
"Then I'm relieved. The fat man smiled slightly, and continued to solve the roast in front of him.
After pondering for a while, Qin Sheng continued: "Fatty, this is the booklet I bought on the street just now, which records in detail the information of most of the contestants in this conference, I have to say that the contestants of this conference are indeed hiding dragons and crouching tigers, don't be careless." ”
"Don't worry, boss, I'm not the same person I was two years ago, with my current cultivation, a top thirty-two is not easy to come by. The fat man said nonchalantly.
"Oh, are you so confident?" Qin Sheng said with a smirk.
"Boss, to tell you the truth, I am now a second-order silver martial artist, and dealing with these small fish and shrimp is like chopping vegetables. The fat man said proudly.
Seeing this, Qin Sheng knew that it was useless to say more, so he didn't say more.
At this time, Ning Mingzhe suddenly thought of something, so he asked, "Boss, I heard that the old man said that you also plan to participate in this martial arts conference this time, is this true?"
"Nature is true. ”
After Ning Mingzhe got a positive answer, Zhengse said: "My old man said that although this conference was organized by His Majesty, there were many sinister villains who made ghosts out of it, and the purpose was to deal with the Qin family. ”
"What, what you said is true?" Qin Yanhua asked with a disillusioned expression.
Qin Rushan asked her to participate in this conference, just hoping that she would do her best, and did not tell her the inside story.
At this time, he heard it in vain, and he was naturally shocked.
Compared to Qin Yan, Qin Sheng already knew about this, and when Ning Mingzhe saw this, he couldn't help but ask suspiciously: "Boss, did you already know?"
Qin Sheng nodded and said indifferently: "It's just some unbearable means, don't pay attention to it." ”
"But ......"
"You can rest assured, as long as I do well in this conference, these despicable methods will naturally not be attacked. Qin Sheng interrupted the fat man's words and said softly.
Ning Mingzhe knew Qin Sheng, and when he saw his confident and calm appearance, he swallowed back his doubts.
Although Qin Sheng's cultivation is "not good", since he was a child, Qin Sheng has never suffered a loss.
This is the impression that Qin Sheng left on the fat man in previous years.
After everyone rested for a while, it was almost time for the conference to start, and Qin Sheng led a group of people to the square outside the palace, where the next month-long martial arts conference would be held.
When Qin Sheng and his party arrived, the square was already crowded, full of contestants who came to compete, and countless spectators came to join in the fun.
Qin Sheng knew that today's game was just the beginning, and the real game would be two days later.
As everyone came to a corner to rest, they waited for a while, and finally came out of the palace with a figure.
Qin Sheng raised his eyes and looked at it, and found that the person who came was an old man with bearded eyebrows and white hair, dressed in an elegant cyan robe, showing a bit of dignity.
The old man came to the front of the stage, glanced at the crowd in the audience slightly, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and then said loudly: "Everyone, please be quiet." ”
The old man's words were not big, but they came to everyone's ears very clearly.
Seeing this scene, Qin Sheng was also surprised in his heart, and Ling Yang on the side said in a timely manner: "Martial Sect powerhouse." ”
When Qin Sheng heard this, he couldn't help but look at the old man a few more times, and then asked in a low voice: "It is rumored that there are four martial arts powerhouses in the royal family, and looking at the old man's dress and demeanor, if I guess correctly, he should be Shen Ao, the ghost hand of the Thousand Changes." ”
"It's him? I can't imagine that the ever-changing ghost hand who was dominant for a while back then has now become a thug of the Dashun royal family, and it's really ridiculous to say it. Ling Yang said disdainfully.
Qin Sheng shook his head and explained: "It is said that this Shen Ao was originally a member of the royal family, and in his early years, because of discord with the first emperor, he left the palace in a fit of anger and traveled all over the world. ”
"It is rumored that this Shen Ao is a thousand illusions in one hand, and he can hit nine hundred and eighty-one palms in one breath, and each palm is different, and no one under the Martial Sect can see the speed of his palm. Ling Yang casually said the information in his head.
"I didn't expect this martial arts conference to invite this strong man to come out, it seems that this martial arts conference is not so simple. ”
As soon as Qin Sheng finished speaking, Shen Ao over there had already spoken again: "Old man Shen Ao, I have the honor to preside over the opening of this conference, you are all young talents of my Dashun country, I hope you can shine in this conference." ”
Sure enough, it was him! Qin Sheng said secretly in his heart.
"It turned out to be Shen Ao!"
"Shen Ao, that Thousand Transformations Ghost Hand Shen Ao?"
"It's really him, the strong man of the Martial Sect is really extraordinary, but when he stands at random, he shows the aura of a strong man everywhere. ”
"It seems that His Majesty attaches great importance to this conference, and even Shen Ao sent it out. ”
The group of people below became noisy because of Shen Ao's words, but Shen Ao on the stage still looked indifferent, as if he had expected the reaction below.
After waiting for a while, Shen Ao pressed his hands in the air, and the scene calmed down again: "In order to enable you to have a better performance in the conference, Your Majesty has specially decreed that the winner of this conference will be rewarded with a Dragon Spirit Pill. Moreover, His Majesty and Princess Ning Xin will be present to watch the rematch of the conference half a month later, and I hope that you will perform well in the next month. ”
Shen Ao's words were like stirring up a thousand waves, and the pot suddenly exploded underneath.
The Dragon Spirit Pill, that is a rare seven-grade elixir, is a dream for cultivators to cultivate elixir.
I didn't expect the winners of this conference to have such a rich reward.
The key point is that His Majesty the Emperor and Princess Ning Xin will be present to watch, aside from the dragon spirit pill, if you can perform well at the conference, if you are favored by Your Majesty, it will not mean that you will soar in the future.
If Princess Ning Xin takes a fancy to her, it is not impossible to recruit as a concubine, I heard that this Princess Ning Xin is the first beauty in Dashun Country, although there is some flattery, but it is still a rare beauty.
As soon as they thought of this, the group of animals below were all excited.
Qin Sheng, who was not far away, couldn't help but be a little amused when he heard the surrounding discussions about Sheng Xin'er.
Ling Yang, who knew the inside story, looked at Qin Sheng with a smile, and the latter directly ignored it.
However, Ning Mingzhe suddenly said excitedly at this time: "It turns out that Princess Ning Xin is also going to come to watch the battle, it seems that I will definitely perform well this time, maybe I will be accidentally taken by Princess Ning Xin, hehe......"
Thinking about it, Ning Mingzhe's saliva almost flowed out.
Suddenly, he felt a chill behind him, Ning Mingzhe looked back, only Qin Sheng stood there with a calm face, and couldn't help but look dazed.
Next, Shen Ao introduced some rules of the conference, there have been many conferences like this in the past, but there are very few of them of this scale, especially the stipulation that all families canonized by His Majesty must send disciples to participate, which invisibly increases the scale of the entire conference a lot.
However, the rules are still much the same, it is nothing more than a competition, and once the opponent loses his resistance, he must not hurt his life.
Most people already know about this, so it's boring.
It's just that next, Shen Ao casually threw out another blockbuster**.
After Qin Sheng heard Shen Ao's words, he was obviously stunned.
The preliminaries of this conference actually adopted a team mode.
The so-called team mode is that the players in this tournament are in groups of three, and each group must defeat all their opponents if they want to advance.
If the requirements are not met, any of the three members of the group who have won will be disqualified.
This is unprecedented.
For a moment, everyone looked at each other.
And Shen Ao's words next caused a lot of uproar.
The group members of this conference are not decided by the contestants themselves, but are randomly selected by the conference, which also means that the variables of this conference will increase a lot.
However, there is no restriction on a player who can only play once in a round, and if you have the strength, it is not impossible to take this wheel battle with one against three.
