Chapter Ninety-Eight: Recruiting Relatives in Competition
At the end of the bustling county town, on a wide small square.
After a day of excitement, there is another grand event in the county.
Today, it is the day when the big family in Xuefeng County, the dream family, and the head of the family, Meng Chendao, wants to recruit relatives for his little daughter.
"The dreamer specially set up a ring here, it seems that there is a martial arts competition to recruit relatives!" In the crowd of onlookers, some people pointed and talked about it.
"Cut, who can't see this? Suddenly, a discordant voice came, which directly made the man's face darken.
"Tell us what?" the man was very unconvinced, and immediately went back.
"Well, then you listen up. The reason why the dreamers chose to hold a martial arts competition today to recruit relatives, do you know why?"
"I don't know. The crowd was unanimous.
"Hmph," he looked very proud, and then said: "A few days ago, the Xuanyun Sect election was underway, and with the excitement of this while, now this Snow Wind County has already been full of heroes. ”
"And the dreamer is one of the best families in the county, and Miss Mengjia recruits relatives, so naturally she wants to find a masterpiece. Think about it, when is the county town with the most outstanding people?" his voice rose and fell, and he was very emotional.
"Now. ”
Everyone looked at me, I looked at you, and then they all looked at him and said in unison.
"That's right, right now. The first round of the Xuanyun Sect election has just ended, and the second round will be held in a few days, at this time, there is an endless stream of people from all over the world, and there are naturally many outstanding people among them. Especially those elites and Tianjiao who have been promoted, they are definitely the best candidates. He explained reasonably, and his expression became proud.
"I see. ”
Everyone was amazed.
At the end of the street, Dong Tu Nan was dragged by Wu Qi until he ran to the place where the onlookers were watching, and walked through the crowded crowd for a long time before he successfully squeezed into the first three rows.
Looking around, there was a sensational crowd of people, shouting excitedly, waving their arms, and the wonderful expressions on their faces could be called classics, quite pompous.
But in the center, there is a ring decorated with red cloth and satin, and a large hydrangea is hung on the four corners, and on the ring surface, there is a square red flower carpet, and the blanket is decorated with golden patterns, which is like a dream and extremely exquisite.
At this time, there was an old man who looked like a butler standing in the ring, covered in black and red clothes, looking a little rich, looking at everyone in the audience with a smile on his face.
He raised his two arms slightly, and arched his hands to the crowd below: "Thank you for cheering, today is the day of my young lady's recruitment, and I specially set up the ring here." I hope that all the young people will participate enthusiastically, and the head of the family will make a promise, and the person who will win in the end will naturally be the aunt of my dream family, and the young lady who will marry my dream family. ”
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone around Dong Tu Nan was a sensation. Everyone was in high spirits, and they began to discuss it, and the scene fell into a noisy mood for a while.
Unable to stand his curiosity, Dong Tu Nan touched the martial chess beside him and asked, "Brother Wu, do you know why they are so excited?"
Wu Qi also shook his head, but his face was complicated, as if he knew something, and deliberately hid it without saying it.
Helpless, Dong Tu Nan had no choice but to turn to an old man next to him and ask humbly: "Uncle, may I ask, what are all these people discussing? ”
The old man squinted his cloudy eyes, approached Dong Tunan's face, looked at it with wide eyes, and then said unhurriedly: "You baby is stupid, this dreamer is the top family in the county, if anyone is the aunt of the dreamer, it will definitely have a bright future, and it will be prosperous! Moreover, it is said that the young lady of the dreamer is also extremely talented, and if she can be worthy, I am afraid that she is also a Tianjiao-level person." As for you...... Phew, get out of the way!"
The old man didn't know if it was because he was old or what, a pair of eyes didn't seem to be very good, and in the process of talking to Dong Tunan, he was always erratic. When he said the last sentence, he actually turned sideways, directly facing the martial arts next to Dong Tunan, and spit at him.
"You!" Wu Qi was angry when he heard it, but fortunately Dong Tu Nan pulled him in time, otherwise, he would have to beat this old man to the point that his body would have fallen apart today.
After calming down, their eyes were drawn back to the ring.
The fat housekeeper still smiled.
However, at this time, he suddenly had a square box in his hand.
The box body is exquisitely made, all parts are engraved with streamlined lines, and in terms of size, it is just right to grasp it with one hand, and it looks like a container for holding elixir spirit treasures.
I saw him put the square box flat on the palm of his hand, and then raised his arm, placed it dozens of centimeters in front of him, and displayed it in front of everyone.
"There is only one uncle, but those young masters and sons who fail in the competition, you will get a treasure," he raised the box in his hand as he said this, "This is the three-grade pill given by the head of the family: Ning Yuan Dan." ”
"The Ning Yuan Pill given by the head of the Dream Family?"
"Oh my God! I heard you right, did I?"
The excitement and intensity of the scene overshadowed it for a while, and it seemed that it could not calm down.
Dong Tu Nan stood there, and he could clearly perceive that the aura of everyone around him was no longer stable, and they stared at the square box in the hand of the fat butler, all revealing a series of burning eyes.
"The head of the Dream Family, Dream One Day, the primary strength of the Earth Source Realm, is a second-level figure in the Snow Wind County, except for the Lord of the County Guard. Wu Qi's face was solemn, and he still said coldly.
"Origin Realm Primary?" Dong Tu Nan exclaimed slightly.
"Not only that, if it's just about cultivation, he may not be considered a second level, because there are still several old guys whose cultivation strength is still above him. ”
Dong Tu Nan was a little puzzled: "In that case, what is the reason for him to become a second-level character?"
"Because... This dream still has an identity, he is the oldest and highest-ranking alchemist in Xuefeng County. Speaking of which, Wu Qi couldn't help but revere it.
"Alchemist?" Dong Tunan repeated.
"Not bad. He is a fourth-grade alchemist, and in the entire county, at the fourth-grade level, there is only one person. Wu Qi explained.
Hearing this, Dong Tu Nan was also shocked.
He knew that the Alchemist, also known as the Dan Master, was a group that also existed in the Yuanwu Continent, including the Divine Realm. They majored in alchemy, and by refining various medicinal materials, they could condense all kinds of pills, which had different effects, and were rare treasures.
At the same time, because alchemists have strict requirements for cultivators, it also leads to the fact that only a small number of people can become alchemists.
It is precisely because of the rarity of the group of alchemists that their preciousness is naturally obvious.
Generally speaking, within a city, having a second-grade alchemist is already very good. Within a county, there are generally a few third-grade alchemists to meet the needs of various forces.
And Snow Wind County can have a fourth-grade alchemist, which is definitely quite rare in a county of the same level.
What's even more commendable is that behind the identity of the alchemist, this master of the Dream Family, his own cultivation strength is also particularly amazing.
Although as an alchemist, his cultivation can't fall too far behind, but in this case, he is simply carrying out alchemy and cultivation at the same time, and neither of them is bad, which is really rare.
As he spoke, Dong Tu Nan had already noticed that the fat butler in the ring had already put away the square box and began to let people in the ring quickly arrange the last procedure.
On the red crown.
This is a traditional custom in Snowwind-gun. Whenever people recruit relatives, especially those large families who recruit relatives through martial arts competitions, they usually build an elevated platform in the center of the ring.
The wooden frame, which is about 20 meters high, has a very strong overall structure, and a wreath made of red flowers is placed on the top, also known as the red crown.
Contestants need to fight in the ring with the masters sent by the family to recruit relatives, until one of them completely holds the "red crown" on the top of the elevated road, which is considered to be the victory.
Those who are better than one will be assigned together, and in the way of one by one, an ultimate winner will be produced, and the ultimate winner will be the last uncle's candidate.
The rules are not complicated, but the number of participants is too large.
While Dong Tu Nan was still in reverie, the ring had already been arranged. I don't know when, there was already a burly man standing in the center of the stage.
Looking at him like that, his face is hateful, and the muscles bulging all over his body seem to have endless power contained in it, as if he is 'pulling out the mountains and covering the world'.
"His name is Manniu, and he is the guardian of this time, and his cultivation strength is probably in the Juyuan Realm. Young masters, as long as you can win the red crown from him, you can beat it over there!"
"Let's get started!"
The fat butler waved his sleeves and then walked out of the ring without hurrying.
"I'll take the lead!"
As soon as the words fell, I saw a man in white rising in the air, turning his head in mid-air, and then landing lightly in the ring.
"Huh?" the burly brute looked at him carefully, only to sigh heavily.
"Do you look down on me?" Master tells you, I'm a Tianjiao ......" The man in white had just said a few words, when he saw the wild bull actually rushing straight towards him.
"It's rude!"
He muttered at first, and then immediately leaned down, kicked the ground violently, and the whole person flew into the air with a thud. Flipped around again, directly dodging the impact of the bull, and finally landed firmly on the ground.
This series of actions is simply picturesque, really like the plot of the white-shirted knight in the story, performing his skills in the air and then hiding from hostile forces.
The man in white had just landed, still with a smug smile on his face, his eyes were arrogantly cast on the manniu, and the corners of his mouth showed a trace of disdain.
But he was surprised to find that the brute bull didn't look at him again, directly let down his guard, and immediately turned around and walked back to the center of the ring.
"Dare to despise ......" Before he could fully say this, he was immediately interrupted by a voice.
What followed was a burst of mass discussions.
"Who is this man? How do I feel that he was hired by the dreamer? Why did he lose so easily?"
"Where does the dreamer need to ask for help, I see, he really has no ability, so he came up with such a set. ”
"Yes, I've never seen anyone fight in the ring like this when I'm so old, and I actually jumped straight down, doesn't that mean I have abstained? I don't know what he thinks. ”
"Perhaps, he came for that Ning Yuan Pill. What do you think, he got a three-grade pill for no reason without any effort, and everyone thinks it's worth it!"
"In that case, I'll try it too!"
"And me!"
“......”
The crowd of onlookers roared in unison in protest against the man in white.
The man in white also reacted instantly, subconsciously lowered his head, and saw at a glance that he was actually standing on the ground under the ring.
I'm out of bounds!
He looked around in shock, a little overwhelmed for a moment.
At this moment, a silver-white landscape suddenly appeared in Dong Tunan's sight.
The crowd rubbed shoulders one after another, gathering like a big net, accompanied by a loud sound of footsteps, the human net suddenly separated a mouth, and a team of majestic silver and white armor soldiers came from it.
"County Guards. ”
The crowd exclaimed.
"Disruptors, arrest!"
The footsteps moved in unison, and the silver-white armor soldier shouted loudly as he separated the team and directly surrounded the man in white.
