Chapter 13: Elegant Pretense

At this time, Xiao Zuo walked under the plaque of the public notice, looked at Jiang Chen provocatively, hooked his little finger, and shouted: "Monk, do you dare to come with me?" ”

As soon as the words came out, the audience was in an uproar. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Xiao Zuo actually chose to challenge Master Sanzang, it's weird, he should have said that he would choose Fang Fengyu!"

"That's right, Xiao Zuo has an absolute advantage in pairs, anyway, this is an arbitrary choice of opponents, and the strongest competitor should be killed first."

"I'm curious if Master Sanzang will accept Yang Junyuan's challenge."

"Do Xiao Zuo and Master Sanzang have any enmity? Such a provocation! ”

"It is estimated that in the last round of the competition, Master Sanzang was in the limelight, Xiao Zuo naturally wants to win back a game in the field he is good at, and by the way, eliminate Master Sanzang, can he not provoke him directly?"

"It sounds a bit interesting, but I'm afraid that Master Sanzang won't dare to accept it."

"Of course, I don't accept it."

In the face of the matter between Xiao Zuo and Jiang Chen, whether it was the audience under the stands or the contestants who had been eliminated, they were all talking.

Most of them thought that Jiang Chen had no courage and did not dare to accept Xiao Zuo's challenge.

In the center of the jade platform, Jiang Chen looked at Xiao Zuo under the plaque in surprise, but when he thought of yesterday's events, he was relieved, and did not speak, but slowly walked towards the public notice board on the edge of the jade platform.

"It's amazing, Master Sanzang has really accepted the challenge?"

"Is the newborn calf not afraid of tigers, or does it have that confidence?"

The audience was incredulous.

Jiang Chen had already come to the public notice plaque, and his eyes were looking directly at Xiao Zuo, without a trace of waves.

On the contrary, Xiao Zuo showed an elegant expression, but his tone was quite unkind: "Master Sanzang, I really admire you for having the courage to come over, do you accept it or not?" I also said that you are just a monk after all, so go back to your temple and recite the scriptures! ”

"Are you really challenging me?" Jiang Chen did not respond to Xiao Zuo's words, and asked directly.

"Naturally, I am challenging you, and you, do you dare to accept it?" Xiao Zuo's smug smile was even worse, but he was very depressed in his heart, originally thought that Jiang Chen would show timidity and dare not accept it, but the reality was the same as last time, Jiang Chen's eyes were very calm and deep, so deep that he actually felt a trace of uneasiness in his heart.

Seeing that Jiang Chen was silent, Xiao Zuo was already sure in his heart that he would not dare to accept it, and immediately laughed: "You monk, I know that you don't dare, you quit automatically, you are simply unworthy of being my opponent." ”

The conversation between the two could be clearly heard by all the audience, and they were all nodding their heads in their hearts, seeing Jiang Chen's silent appearance, obviously without any intention of accepting Xiao Zuo's challenge.

"Xiao Zuo is good!"

Under the stands, Bai Yi was overjoyed when he saw the scene in front of him, especially Jiang Chen's silence, which made him feel refreshed in his heart. If it weren't for Jiang Chen, he would definitely be in the top four, so it would be cool to see Jiang Chen's bad situation.

Although the audience didn't hear Jiang Chen's vote, they didn't seem to be very interested in it, and they should be timid.

Sure enough, Jiang Chen spoke again: "Why should I accept your challenge?" ”

When Xiao Zuo heard this, he pretended to be surprised: "Master Sanzang, didn't you say that I was useless yesterday?" Today I'm going to let you see if I'm ordinary and incompetent? Moreover, we literati pay attention to courage, and if you don't have this courage, I can conclude that your achievements in the future will definitely be under me. ”

This sentence made many people change color slightly, indeed, the literati of the Tang Dynasty pay attention to having literary courage, once the literary courage is shaken, it is equivalent to giving up ambitions, that is to say, it is destined to be unsmooth on the road of literati.

Xiao Zuo directly said it, meaning to let Jiang Chen choose by himself.

Jiang Chen didn't know Xiao Zuo's thoughts, and accepted his challenge, if he lost, he won, and if he didn't accept his challenge, his courage would not only have an impact, but more importantly, the task released by the system would fail. Of course, Xiao Zuo doesn't know the latter, even if the former is not of much use to himself, who calls himself a traverser.

But...... On all premises, there are no ifs!

Because Jiang Chen knew that Xiao Zuo was already angry with him and would not be kind, so he smiled and said, "Xiao Dacai, which ear did you hear that I was going to refuse your challenge?" Actually, I want to say, what are you? What qualifications do you have to invite me over for a challenge? ”

Since Xiao Zuo will not give up, he simply tears his face.

"You ......" Xiao Zuo glared at Jiang Chen angrily, his body shook, his eyes stared at Jiang Chen, he didn't expect him to say such a thing.

Jiang Chen looked at Xiao Zuo indifferently and said coldly: "What? Do not say? Did I say yes? ”

Xiao Zuo's face was extremely gloomy, and after regaining his composure, he spoke: "Monk, I'm just telling the truth, I don't need to be ruthless, do I accept or not accept my challenge?" ”

In Xiao Zuo's view, Jiang Chen is just jumping over the wall in a hurry, so his purpose is very simple, that is, to force Jiang Chen to accept the challenge, let him eliminate, and if he has the opportunity, he will step on it fiercely, so that he will be ruined. What a bullshit Sanzang mage, just a stinky monk!

"It's okay to accept your challenge, but doesn't it seem boring?" Jiang Chen smiled.

"What do you want?" Xiao Zuo faintly felt bad.

Jiang Chen continued to smile and said, "Xiao Dacai, I think it's better to make a bet with me?" Don't bet on anything else, just bet on the Qixi couplet challenge now, the winner is naturally the top three, and the loser is not only eliminated, but also quit the literati road, that is, if you lose, abandon the text. If I fail, the road will not go in this direction. ”

"Xiao Zuo! Do you dare? ”

It's not that Jiang Chen is pretending to be forced, he is really tired of provocations again and again, Xiao Zuo has become a villain, he doesn't do anything, and the faces he sends are pasted over, can you not let him fight?

The audience couldn't understand Jiang Chen's gambling battle, they were all moved, is Master Sanzang stupid? Dig your own pit and bury yourself?

Knowing that Xiao Zuo has studied pairs quite deeply, even better than ancient poetry, does he think that he can beat Xiao Zuo?

"It's a pity...... Master Sanzang is mindful. ”

"Young and frivolous, let Xiao Zuo teach him a lesson."

"I'm still going to woo Master Sanzang......"

The examiners shook their heads, very disappointed in Jiang Chen.

Xiao Zuo looked up at Jiang Chen, his eyes were strange, he was still thinking that if Jiang Chen directly promised that he would make such a bet, he didn't expect to send it to the door, this is no wonder to me, grinning: "Monk, this is what you said, okay, I agreed!" No reversal! ”

"Of course, all the spectators at the scene can testify, and I think the chief examiner, Lord Li Xun, will also testify about our gambling date, right?" Jiang Chen's eyes were calm and he responded lightly.

Li Xun, who was not far away, was slightly stunned, and then laughed: "That is, the competition between the two geniuses of this Qixi Poetry Conference is still quite interesting, since the two of you have decided, I will be the examiner as the witness of this gambling contract, if there is a defaulter, it will be punished by Datang law." ”

The audience was in an uproar again, Jiang Chen was not only stupid enough to accept Xiao Zuo's challenge, but also used his future to make a bet, and now let Lord Li Xun as the witness of the gambling contract, many people were speechless.
