Chapter 397: The Game in the Mountains (1)
What a boring ancestor worship!
Li Wentao looked at the ancestor worship activities of the Tang Gate quite bored, and a group of old and young people kowtowed to a bunch of portraits, which was really nothing to look at, only felt bored for a while. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Finally waited until the ancestor worship was completed, Li Wentao finally came to his senses, and Tang Nianjiao stood back beside him again, and actually said: "If you want to laugh, laugh!" I know we looked stupid just now, and it's probably the first time you've seen this scene."
"No, no" Li Wentao shook his head again and again, even if he really thought like this at this time, he didn't dare to admit it in front of all the people of the Tang Sect.
"I heard that ancestor worship should not be during the Chinese New Year or Qingming Festival? This Mid-Autumn Festival ancestor worship is still broad daylight, and it is really the first time I have heard of it" Li Wentao diverted the topic.
"That's true, but ancestor worship doesn't have to be carried out during the New Year, this varies from person to person, and my Tang Sect must worship ancestors when carrying out some important events."
"You mean, jousting?" Li Wentao immediately thought of the competition.
Tang Nianjiao nodded and continued: "This competition is a major event to determine the qualifications of the heir, so it is natural to carry out the ancestor worship ceremony, not to mention that the ancestor worship just now is just a simple ceremony, just a small worship of the portrait of the ancestors, if you wait until the New Year, it will be much more grand than this."
Hearing this, Li Wentao not only did not feel any cultural atmosphere, but felt a little chilled.
In his opinion, these things are completely meaningless, to put it bluntly, worshipping ancestors is to go to the grave, how to worship can't work, you have to make so many troubles.
Tang Nianjiao seemed to see through Li Wentao's thoughts, and sighed: "This is martial arts, not to mention that this phenomenon does not only exist in martial arts, not to mention far away, there are similar rituals in the dragon group, and you won't be able to escape when the time comes."
Tang Nianjiao seemed to be a little gloating.
Li Wentao didn't care, his attention was focused on the door master, who stood in front of the stage, attracting everyone's attention, and he obviously wanted to say something.
Sure enough, the doorkeeper spoke.
"Following the ancestral system, I don't think I need to say much about the importance of this competition, but this year is different from previous years, there is one more outsider, so the rules will also change."
Hearing this, everyone's faces changed, even Tang Nianjiao was no exception, obviously, the eldest daughter of the master of the door didn't know the inside story.
When Li Wentao heard that it was related to him, he hurriedly concentrated.
"My Tang Sect has always focused on hidden weapons, and the internal strength cultivation is low, if you compete in pairs as usual, this is too unfair to my Tang Sect disciples, if the hidden weapon loses its concealment power, it will be greatly reduced, after a careful decision, so this time, you will enter the mountains to fight, and the final winner is the rightful heir of the sect."
The master of the door took out a bright golden token, shook it in front of everyone's eyes, so that everyone could see it clearly, and then explained: "Later, this token will be placed in a corner of the mountain, and whoever can find it and bring it out will be the winner."
With that, the door master summoned a guard and handed the token to the guard.
At this moment, everyone's eyes were focused on the guard, until the guard walked in the direction of the mountain, entered the mountain, and disappeared completely.
Many people, including Li Wentao, watched carefully, and only retracted their gaze after remembering the direction in which the guards were leaving.
From now on, the contest has begun!
"Alright, let's go away! I am here waiting for you to return triumphantly, and enjoy the Mid-Autumn Moon with your future heirs tonight."
The door owner finally made a polite sound, which was the official start of the competition.
"It's over, I didn't expect my father to come out like this, it's miserable" Tang Nianjiao was like an ant on a hot pot, so anxious.
"I will win," Li Wentao couldn't help but say.
"What do you know" Tang Nianjiao said anxiously: "If you stand in the ring and compete, you are bright and guarded, and you will lose the opportunity to use any hidden weapon, and you will invisibly reduce the power of the hidden weapon by half, but now you have entered the mountain?" ”
Speaking of this, Tang Nianjiao couldn't help but sigh and said: "In the mountains, the environment sheltered by grass and trees is enough to give full play to the essence of the secret weapon to surprise and attack it unprepared, and you have become the target of everyone, if you are besieged in the mountain"
Hearing this, Li Wentao also changed a little, as if he had seen the scene of being besieged by a group of hidden weapon masters.
"Nian Jiao, the competition has begun, if you have anything to say later, wait with me now!" The door owner suddenly came over and took Tang Nianjiao away, without looking at Li Wentao during the period.
Obviously, this door master is very unimpressed with him!
Li Wentao touched his nose a little depressed, then avoided the crowd and walked towards the mountain from the other direction.
"God, God......" Li Wentao walked alone on the mountain road, calling out twice, but he couldn't hear any response.
"The critical moment is not there, it seems that borrowing the perspective eye will not work, and I have to figure it out myself"
Li Wentao shook his head, turned a corner when he was about to enter the mountain, and walked in another direction.
This is the same direction in which the guards placed the tokens.
Not only Li Wentao, everyone noticed this direction, although I don't know if the guards changed directions in the mountains, but at the moment, this direction is undoubtedly a clue, before Li Wentao, almost everyone went in the direction.
Since it is the core thing that the heir is fighting for, it is naturally impossible to be easily captured, so Li Wentao is not worried about being taken first.
If he takes 10,000 steps back, even if he is the first to get there, he can grab it directly, and he will save himself the effort to find it.
With this mentality, Li Wentao entered the mountain slowly, and encountered an accident as soon as he entered.
Four sounds suddenly sounded among the grass, and then four figures rushed out, surrounding them in four directions, south, south, and north.
This scene couldn't help but make Li Wentao frown.
These four people had obviously been lurking early, and thinking that he had become a thorn in the side of the Tang Sect disciples, he couldn't help but suspect that these four people were here to ambush him.
"Haha! The fourth young master really expected things like a god, and knew that this kid would definitely go in this direction, so he really told us to catch it right."
"That's right, just catch it back and let the fourth young master fall"
"It's time for the performance to come, it's time for us to hit the luck today"
…… These four people are all excited, as if they have already eaten Li Wentao, but the latter heard something different.
Fourth Young Master?
Isn't this Tang Qingyun!
Li Wentao's heart sank, he didn't expect that the competition had just begun, and someone had already begun to target him, Tang Qingyun, who was still the most promising heir.
This beam is bigger!
"Boy, now tie your hands so that you don't suffer from flesh," said one of them, apparently not wanting to fight.
They know very well that Li Wentao's internal strength cultivation is higher than his own, and even far more than a cut, and it is best not to fight if he can.
"I'll talk about it when you can catch me!"
Li Wentao chuckled, activated his internal force, and his body suddenly became as light as a swallow, and he jumped on the spot, but he jumped out four or five meters high at once, and jumped onto a branch.
Then he jumped on the branch again, and swept away into the distance very elegantly.
"Catch Him"
"Don't let him run"
…… The four of them shouted and hurriedly chased after them, and at the same time shook their hands together, followed by four sounds of breaking the air.
Hidden weapon!
didn't see the attack, but heard its sound first, Li Wentao instantly thought that it was a hidden weapon attack, and he didn't dare to put his back straight at the four people, and hurriedly turned around to greet them.
Four sounds of breaking the air, four dart-like hidden weapons.
After Li Wentao saw the appearance clearly, he naturally saw the trajectory of the dart shooting, and the grandmaster-level body technique was unfolded, sticking to the gap between the four darts, and dodged at a very tricky angle.
"What a handsome skill"
The man immediately regretted it after he finished speaking, and three cold snorts sounded next to him one after another, as if to remind him of his position, and there were three sneers at the same time.
Sneer?
What to sneer?
Li Wentao, who was keenly aware of this scene, was vigilant, and quickly turned his head to look, and found that the four darts had made a spin in the air, and they had gone and returned and shot back.
Boomerang?
And Li Wentao was also surprised to find that after the four darts spun back, instead of slowing down, the angle was even more tricky than just now.
Obviously, this has been calculated a long time ago.
At this time, Li Wentao remembered Tang Nianjiao's previous explanation and understood that this was the throwing technique in the classification of hidden weapons.
He didn't panic, no matter how tricky the angle was, how unexpected the maneuver was, as long as he saw the trajectory clearly, there was naturally nothing to fear.
He still used the old routine, jumped on the spot, jumped four or five meters high again, and then fled away again with the help of a branch.
This time, he didn't have the slightest nostalgia, and when he used his internal force to reduce his weight, he faintly used some fur of the longitudinal technique.
The speed suddenly increased several times, and it disappeared from the sight of the four people in a few seconds, and only stopped when it was no longer visible.
No matter how annoyed the four people were, Li Wentao had already left easily, he didn't think about killing those four people directly, but he had to take care of Tangmen.
You must know that this is the territory of the Tang Sect, these four people were instructed by Tang Qingyun to ambush him, if he died, Tang Qingyun would naturally be able to think that he was a murderer, and everyone who knew about this matter would figure this out.
Although there is no restriction in the rules of the competition that he can't kill people, he is an outsider after all, if he openly kills people from the Tang Sect on the territory of the Tang Sect, isn't it okay to find trouble!
Li Wentao is not stupid, he is very sensible, he knows that everyone in this competition is his enemy, as long as the conditions allow, he does not mind killing.
As long as you don't get yourself in trouble! (To be continued.) )
