Chapter 39: Speculation and Planning
Less than a hundred miles away from the town of Blue Star, there is a city built against the mountain. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info around it, there are several small villages scattered in twos and threes.
The city is about three zhang high, on the top stone carved plate, "bluestone" two vigorous and powerful big characters are impressive.
This city is really worthy of the name of "bluestone", the city wall as a whole is dark blue, the wall is angular and angular, and it is really made of huge stones piled up one by one.
It is clear that the city has been around for a long time, and the walls are covered with marks of knives and axes, some of which have been worn away to the point of being shallow and about to disappear into the course of time.
On the top of the castle tower, the soldiers are equipped with well-equipped standard armor and armed with sharp weapons such as spears and swords, and they are patrolling back and forth in twos and threes.
On their faces, there was no slackness, but with a full of slaughter, making people have no doubt that this was a group of tiger and wolf divisions with amazing combat power, and they had experienced real battlefield battles.
At this moment, the gates were wide open, and a straight avenue for eight carriages to travel side by side stretched from outside the gates to the depths of the city.
Because it was already morning, there was a constant stream of people coming in and out of the city gates.
They were dressed in different ways, some were farmers driving horse-drawn carts full of fruits and vegetables, others were richly dressed merchants with a convoy of vegetables.
There are also some people, who carry or carry all kinds of weapons, with serious expressions and the breath of no one to be approached.
It's just that no matter whether it is those ordinary people, or these powerful professionals or mercenaries, no matter how noisy and unscrupulous they are just now, they are all silent when they arrive at the city gate, and they honestly line up for routine inspection.
Taken by the majesty of this huge city, they did not dare to be presumptuous here.
In this city, in addition to the city lord's mansion standing majestically in the center, there is also a huge mansion in each of the four corners.
At this time, in the mansion in the northwest corner, a majestic and majestic voice came out, with great surprise.
"What, you said that kid is just a child of an ordinary family, but his two elder brothers have good strength and amazing talent, even compared to the young master, they are not much better?!" In the hall in the center of the mansion, a big man with a Chinese character face held a tea bowl, and his thick eyebrows were twisted together.
"Yes, the subordinates don't dare to say anything, the strength of those two teenagers is indeed amazing. Judging by their subordinates, they are at least in the realm of subtlety. Opposite the big man, a middle-aged man wearing coarse cloth clothes bent over and said respectfully.
"Uncle Yuli, isn't that an exaggeration when you say that? A product into the subtle realm, compared to this young master, is it not worse? This young master has stepped into the pinnacle realm of a product with half a foot, and he is also a flower on the 'bluestone silver list' of our bluestone city! Beside this big man, a handsome young man dressed in a fine costume and with a long figure said with his hands behind his back, with a proud look on his face.
"Eugene, Bluestone City is not small, I, Yura, as the deputy city lord, know that some young talents may not compete for the ranking on the 'Bluestone Silver List'. Therefore, although you are a tanhua, you may not necessarily be in the top three among the teenagers in Bluestone City. The big man's brows furrowed, stroked his beard, and preached.
It's just that, although he is preaching, he has a satisfied expression on his face, and the doting look in his eyes can't be concealed.
"Dad, even if what you say is true, how many really powerful characters can there be among those guys who haven't participated in the competition? The children have faith that they will be able to defeat them! Moreover, in two months, it will be this year's 'Bluestone Championship'. By that time, I will have already stepped into the pinnacle of the first grade. Even if it is the first place in this 'bluestone silver list', the child is confident that he can compete for it! Eugene replied, his words full of confidence.
These words were really beautiful and infectious, and Yura seemed to be a little excited, and her free hand slapped her thigh and said, "Okay, what my son said is good, a man should have the courage to fight for the king!" Although you are usually a little playful, your cultivation is not procrastinating, and your strength is progressing rapidly. A few days ago, he even cultivated the family swordsmanship Meteor Sword to Xiaocheng, and his combat power increased by a bit, and he was very pleased to be a father! ”
After a pause, he continued: "Moreover, you are only fifteen years old this year, and you can stay on the bluestone list twice, and there is no possibility of challenging those two demons and reaching the pinnacle!" ”
When he spoke of those two demons, his expression fluctuated significantly, and surprise and jealousy flashed from the bottom of his eyes.
Even Eugene, who had just released his bold words, suddenly seemed to realize something and was silent.
It sounds beautiful just now, but now that I think about it, the difficulty of achieving it is not ordinary! Because, if you want to win the first place in the 'Bluestone Silver List', you must cross the two demons who are only twelve years old, but they are already at the peak of the realm.
Yura and Eugene's father and son thought about their thoughts, but Yuri didn't dare to speak first, and the hall suddenly fell silent.
After a moment, Yura looked up and asked, "By the way, Yuri, how old are those two teenagers, are they similar to Eugene, or are they over sixteen years old and can't participate in the 'Bluestone Tournament' anymore?" ”
"That's right, if you're older than me, it's not unusual to be able to reach the level of subtlety!" Eugene suddenly came to his senses and interjected.
I am not enough to compare, but I am still more than enough!
However, this time, You Li's body bent lower, and his tone was a little apprehensive: "My subordinates hurried back to report the news, so I didn't have time to find out the exact age of the two of them. However, according to the faces of the two of them, they must not be more than thirteen years old! ”
As soon as he finished speaking, the hall fell silent again.
After a long time, Yura slowly walked to the table behind her, gently put the cold tea bowl back in its place, and then waved her hand at the outstretched hand, and said in a deep voice: "Got it, you go down!" ”
Yu Li bowed again and quietly retreated.
"Dad, this... It can't be..."Eugene walked up to Yura, still a little unconvinced.
At this time, he was not interested, and the arrogant expression on his face had disappeared.
"Yuri has been with me for decades, and he won't lie to me. Moreover, for this kind of thing, he doesn't need to lie to us, right? Jura turned around and touched his head and replied.
"If You Li's speculation is correct, those two teenagers must not be ordinary children, because no matter how demonic they are, if there is no famous teacher behind them, even if they think about it and embark on the path of cultivation, they will take many detours, and they will not be so fast."
Eugene's eyes froze, and he replied, "Dad, what do you mean..."
"I think the background behind the two of them must not be weak, maybe the elders in the family deliberately let it out to experience it." Jura said solemnly.
"Perhaps, not far from them, there is a master of their own family secretly protecting them, preventing them from dying prematurely before they grow up."
"For this kind of person, it's always right to be friendly. I'll ask Uncle Yuli to go to that town again and see if you can find those two teenagers again to show kindness. Even if people don't want to befriend us, that's our gesture. Jura squinted her eyes with a sly and deep gaze.
