Chapter 306: Drumming and Killing
The king of Zhendong, who governs a large area east of the Luo River and southwest of the imperial city, will certainly not be hasty in giving appointments.
Qin Hao speculated that the first round of competition in Cloud Mist Villa was the connections, and those with the most extensive connections could exclude dissidents and survive in the end, giving these people the opportunity to divide their spheres of influence.
Needless to say, the third round should be the last few people left to compete in the ring in a dignified manner. And in the second game sandwiched in the middle, Qin Hao really couldn't guess what he was going to do.
Pen, ink, paper, inkstone, a small table per person, a total of twelve people on the stage, under the stage are thousands of troops and horses, and the emperor Yingzheng is watching in the tent in the north.
What is going to be done in such a big battle?
There are many people who speculate like Qin Hao, and they don't know why after all.
At three o'clock in the afternoon, the horizontal line of the sundial hit the engraved point, and two shirtless strong men carried the gong "Bang-" sounded, which shook several people on the stage to a clever one.
An old eunuch stepped forward with a yellow brocade silk and handed it to the twelve candidates on the stage in turn.
Qin Hao took the brocade silk and opened it, and found that there was a line of words dancing in the pen and ink, and the beginning was the four hot red fonts of "Competition Rules".
The book reads: "The second written test - drumming and killing." At the beginning of the beating of the drum, everyone must write a person's name on a piece of paper, and the person who gets the most names is eliminated. ”
After reading the rules of the game, Qin Hao found that a big tripod was placed in the center of the ring, and there was a pillar of sandalwood on the big ding, and the incense had been lit, and it looked like it could burn for two or three hours.
Qin Hao couldn't help but sigh in his heart, the Imperial City is really the capital of strategy, and even the selection of the King of Zhendong has so many doorways.
A mere piece of paper, the mystery in it can be deep. If a person's name is written, it means that the person has been completely offended.
And this time, the knockout round is not for these people who are average, but the strength of Qin Hao and Ying Ziying is above everyone.
At the same time, the stronger the stronger the more they will be eliminated immediately, but if the weak want to eliminate the strong one, they must bear the revenge afterwards. In this way, it is worth pondering whose name should be put on the paper.
At this time, Lin Ke'er glanced at her inadvertently, Qin Hao nodded and smiled back, and Lin Ke'er replied with a smile.
In the time that followed, some candidates whispered to each other, and some candidates simply wrote down a name and closed their eyes there.
The vast majority of people were contemplative, looking left and right, and never dared to put pen to paper. Qin Hao also took a wait-and-see attitude and did not finish writing for a long time.
While he was watching, Qin Hao suddenly discovered a very strange phenomenon. The people who selected the king of Zhendong this time were all young people under the age of thirty-five, but the man sitting opposite was goosebumps and brown hair, and his face was full of old age spots.
Squinting his eyes and looking carefully, the man's eyebrows and eyes were still a little immature, but his skin was a little older and there were some spots on his face.
Sensing Qin Hao's gaze, the man's tone was threatening, "What are you looking at!"
"It's nothing, I just don't think your looks match your age. Qin Hao shook his head and said with a light smile, "I have long heard that there is a young master with poison in the Camel Mountain Ridge, and he kills people invisibly with his poisonous skills, and he has already surpassed countless people of the older generation, but he never thought of growing like this. ”
At the mention of the verb poison, the man's face was a little ugly. He did inherit a strong poisonous skill, but it was a pity that a young face was ruined because of this, Qin Hao's words were tantamount to revealing scars.
"Are you deliberately trying to find fault!"
"I'm not looking for fault, I'm just complimenting. Qin Hao still smiled lightly and said in a calm tone, "You are the first one who can unknowingly poison my food, so I specially praised it today." ”
After that, Qin Hao picked up the pen and wrote the man's name on the white paper on the table, and then closed his eyes and remained silent.
"You!" said the man with an angry face, "When have I poisoned your food, don't spew blood!"
The two of them quarreled enough to attract everyone's attention. Similarly, Ying Ziying couldn't help but look at it curiously.
Seeing this, Qin Hao couldn't help but say, "When our group came, there were poisonous fruits on the table. You're the only one who will use poison while sitting here, and I don't think you've been wronged. ”
"Even if it's me. The man snorted coldly, "It's to blame you for not being vigilant enough, even if I kill you in the game, it's in line with the rules, what's wrong." ”
Lin Keer also looked suspicious. There was no good in rabbling these things on the playing field, and she didn't understand why Qin Hao was doing this.
Similarly, Ying Ziying was also suspicious of Qin Hao's attitude. In his mind, Qin Hao is the only one of these people on the field who can become his opponent, and he shouldn't have to do such a stupid thing as quarreling.
"It's in line with the rules for you to poison, and it's in line with the rules to kill me, but it's your fault to poison in Cloud Misty Villa. Qin Hao swept away his gentle posture, and his eyebrows suddenly sharpened.
"Fellow Daoists, you can raise your palms to see if there are blue spots the size of broad beans three inches below the root of your ring finger. ”
When the words fell, the man's face suddenly became ugly, and there was a vague panic in his eyes.
Sure enough, one of the monks raised his arm, and sure enough, he saw that there was indeed a cyan mark three inches below his ring finger.
"What is this?"
"Why is there no toxic reaction?"
"Wait, this stuff looks like it's alive!"
After panicked voices sounded, Qin Hao stood up and explained, "The immortal ordinary poison among you is a unique Gu poison in the Camel Mountain of Southern Xinjiang, which is to invade the air with live insects, and it is controlled by the practitioner to drill into the human body, and it is difficult to detect it in the human body, but once it is detonated at a specific time, it will have a very big trauma to the body." ”
When the words fell, the man's face was ugly as if he had eaten a fly alive, and he defended himself in a panic, "You are a bloody spewing person for no reason, who has that eye to see that I did it!"
It's a pity that after what he said just now, the man's words are too ridiculous. Seeing that the incense had burned out, some people gradually picked up their pens.
The first to put pen to paper was Ying Ziying, who wrote the man's name on the paper with a dragon flying and phoenix, and immediately nodded and smiled at Qin Hao.
Qin Hao clenched his fists and smiled back, and immediately the storage ring between his fingers flashed, and ten medicine packets appeared in the air out of thin air. Qin Hao waved his sleeves, and the medicine bags fell into the hands of the ten participants.
"This is the antidote to Gu poison, I just developed it two days ago, I hope it will be useful to everyone. ”
