Chapter 18: Pure Darkness
A day later, the central square of Mocheng - Sky Plaza.
Since ancient times, it has been responsible for the construction of large-scale projects in Mocheng, and today's Sky Plaza is newly decorated.
The huge square is surrounded by colorful flower pots, leaving only a long row of entrances that enter from outside the outfield. On both sides of the entrance, two columns of shadow soldiers stood solemnly, and the soldiers stood there with weapons in hand, adding a bit of heaviness to the otherwise festive venue.
From a distance, the soldiers were like sculptures, standing still, and there were thousands of people when carefully counted.
At the end of the Soldier Pair was a high wall, which was on the edge of the square, leading to the central ring. Under the high wall, two pillars of light stood in the distance, emitting dazzling light that instantly attracted everyone's attention.
Mo Han was sitting in the center of the stage at this time, and there were two large books hanging on either side of him:
Wife selection event!
In the center of the ring, most of the shadow demons in the shadow world were already sitting in the pre-arranged seats in the square, and they couldn't be quiet for a while.
Mo Yu is the chief butler of the City Lord's Mansion, and has always been the right-hand man of the City Lord Mo Han, and he is the master of ceremonies and in charge of all trivial chores in the city lord's choice of wife.
At this time, the people of the city who should have come came, and the squatting who did not occupy the seat, the squatting and standing, densely packed with a large area, a subordinate next to him signaled to Moyu, Moyu nodded and walked to the stage, raised his hands, and said, "Everyone, please be quiet."
Unlike the evil charm of Mo Han, Mo Yu's voice is thick and elegant, which makes people feel extremely comfortable to hear. Without any ancillary aids, the sound reached everyone's ears.
The city's citizens in the audience suddenly fell silent, Mo Yu waved his hands slightly, his eyes were sharp, and he only heard Mo Yu say: "Today is the city lord's wife selection banquet, the city lord is handsome and chic, with thousands of appearances, and he is still a powerful dark emperor, but he still hasn't married a wife until today." According to the rules of Mocheng, if the city lord has no sweetheart, the wives of the previous city lords are all capable people, so everyone in the shadow world is recruited here today, as long as the unmarried man and woman can participate. ”
"Great, I haven't been married for so many years just to wait for one day, Lord Mo Han, are you waiting for me?"
"What nonsense, how could Lord Mo Han like you as an ugly bastard, and don't look in the mirror to see what kind of virtue you are!"
"Hmph, are you good-looking? Don't forget you're a man! ”
"What about men, in women you are just in the posture of Pu Liu, but in men I am indeed a top existence!"
In the audience, because of Mo Yu's words, there were men and women, and it seemed that Mo Han's charm was really not ordinary.
Carefree was hiding in the crowd in a black cloak at this time, looking at the excited looks of the people around him, Carefree could only pout weakly, is that phoenix man really that good?
"Silence!"
With a cold snort from Mo Yu, the scene immediately returned to silence.
"Most of the people who came to participate in Ink City today may be familiar with this rule of Ink City, but there are also many people who have come from other main cities in the Shadow Realm, and they may not understand the rules of this recruitment. In order to prevent any misunderstanding, now I will repeat the rules of recruitment! As soon as the words fell, Mo Yu's eyes wandered around the field, and seeing that everyone had no objections, he spoke again.
"There are three main levels of the city lord's wife selection event, if you want to participate in the later competition, you must first pass the literary test, how can you get the favor of the city lord without a certain talent, and then there is the real martial arts, all the passers have a duel in pairs, and only twenty of them are selected. If you don't have the power to restrain the chicken, how can you be worthy of the city lord? If you can pass both levels, you can come face to face with the lord of the castle and accept the questions from the lord himself, and if anyone wants to throw themselves into the arms of the lord of the castle, they can act now! ”
Hearing only a gong, a thousand soldiers stomped the weapons in their hands on the ground, with a fierce expression, standing in front of the stage, clasping their hands, looking at people angrily, no matter how excited the audience was, seeing this battle, how dare they say anything, and immediately retracted their heads.
"Do you still have questions?"
"No more!"
"Okay, then invite everyone who wants to participate in the tournament to gather in the center ring!"
With Mo Yu's order, the overwhelming flow of people rushed towards the ring.
Looking at such a flow of people, Mo Han was not idle, he had been looking for a worry-free trace in it, but unfortunately he still failed.
"Didn't that kid come?" Mo Han didn't think there was anything wrong with her orientation, but when she saw Sansso's face, which was even more handsome than herself, she couldn't help but lock her to her side.
"Lord Mo Han, everything is ready, is it time to start the first level?" Seeing that no one was on stage, Mo Yu came to Mo Han's side and whispered.
"Wait!" Mo Han frowned, raised his left hand, and said.
"Adults, are you waiting for the boy who peeked at you taking a bath?" At that time, Mo Yu didn't go there with Mo Han, but he also heard from his subordinates that the adult actually gave the city lord token representing his identity to a young man who couldn't even name him.
Raised eyebrows and glanced at Mo Yu, Mo Han didn't speak, but his face was a little heavy.
"Didn't that kid come to peek at Lord Ben's bath because he looked at Ben-sama's beauty?" Mo Han pondered in his heart, and the other side of the worry-free side also fell into a dilemma.
"Good granddaughter, go quickly, with your appearance, even if you don't perform anything, you will definitely be able to pass the first level!" Aunt Shadow looked at Wuwu with excitement, and secretly looked at her son Demon Yue, who was already standing in the ring, and for some reason, she just wanted to use the token in Wuwu's hand to give Demon Yue's mother a resounding slap in the face.
Worry-free and white-eyed, seeing that there were thousands of people in the small ring, she didn't want to join in the excitement anymore, and pouted innocently: "It's okay not to go, even if I don't participate in this, I may not lose in the Young Master Ranking Competition!" ”
"No, how can you not go? The city lord is the most famous hero and talent in Mo City, how many people are lining up to marry him, you are good, you already have the token he gave you, which is equivalent to opening the back door and not going!! "Angry eyes, Aunt Shadow's fists clenched tightly, a little hated that iron does not become steel.
"If I accidentally win, do I want to marry him?" Frowning and glancing, in the direction of Mo Han on the farthest high platform, Wuwu asked the question that gave her the most headache.
"Of course, that kid Mo Han is also a genius among the younger generation, he is powerful and powerful, and he can also be worthy of you!" If it were someone else, if he put it next to Mo Han, he would definitely be looked at with disdain by Aunt Shadow, but if this person was carefree, Mo Han, who was usually okay in his eyes, would not be worth mentioning.
"My lord, you didn't say that before, you said that Mo Han is the best-looking man in Mo City, and there is no one in the entire Shadow Realm who can be worthy of him!" Mo Kong rolled his eyes, and immediately debunked Aunt Shadow's words.
"You really say that?" Mo Ye, who had been silent, spoke, raising her eyebrows and looking at Aunt Shadow, as if she was a little displeased.
"How, am I such a person? Ever since I met you, all men have been clouds in my eyes! "Aunt Shadow almost didn't dig out her heart to show her sincerity.
Mo Ye was noncommittal, and his deep gaze swept in the direction of Mo Han.
On the high platform, Mo Han only felt a chill in his heart, as if he was locked by some powerful existence, and immediately patrolled towards the stage.
When he saw the direction of Mo Ye, his deep eyes couldn't help but light up.
"Are you still here?" Looking at Mo Ye's carefree side, a confident smile rose at the corner of Mo Han's mouth.
"Your Excellency?" Seeing Mo Han suddenly get up from the stool, Mo Yu was a little puzzled.
"Bring her to Lord Ben and go straight to the third round!" Pointing in the direction of worry-free, the smile on the corner of Mo Han's mouth deepened.
"Who's that? What did Lord Mo Han say? Did I hear you right? ”
"Oh my God, Lord Mo Han actually directly mentioned that person to the third round! It's not fair! ”
"That's right, I'm not convinced, why can she go straight to the third round!"
In the ring, everyone's eyes shot in the direction of Carefree, and a pair of eyes were eager to tear Carefree to pieces.
"Huh!! Why does that person look so familiar?" one of the participants frowned, scratching his head vigorously.
"That's Lord Mo Yan, it turned out to be Lord Mo Yan, one of the three major knights of Mo City!"
The sharp-eyed man immediately discovered the identity of the Shadow Aunt and immediately exclaimed.
It's not that the city lord has never seen the shadow knight in choosing a wife before, but this shadow aunt can be said to be notorious in the shadow world, and she is famous for loving beautiful men, but she didn't expect that the shadow aunt who can be a grandmother would come to participate in Mo Han's wife selection event at any time, and Mo Han directly exempted her from the first two levels, so what are they compared to?
"Everyone, I think you all misunderstood, I didn't come today to participate in Mo Han's wife's wife!" Seeing that everyone thought of themselves as the one who was Mo Han's finger, Aunt Shadow was also a little helpless, and immediately said loudly.
"Oh~~~ Then I don't know what Mo Yan are doing here? I thought you wouldn't change your life, and even the city lord of Mocheng wouldn't let it go! A seductive woman stepped out of the crowd, and everyone made way for her.
"This is Lord Demon Pupil, it turned out to be Lord Demon Pupil, and she is here too!"
"Oh my God, even the Shadow Knight of the North is here! The charm of Lord Mohan is too great! ”
The crowd erupted in exclamation again.
I saw the demon pupil slowly come out, and actually floated in the void and came directly to the shadow aunt, a delicate face seemed to be able to drip water.
looked at Aunt Shadow with a smile, and swept his gaze to the carefree and ink space beside him, with a look of disdain on his face, and he was two male pets again! But when she saw Mo Ye beside Wu Wu, the whole person stayed in place, her body trembled uncontrollably, and her green fingers pointed at Mo Ye's nose and said, "You Mo Ye, why are you here?" ”
