Chapter 25: Opening of the Ritual Festival

"Then I'll trouble Brother Su to talk about it. Ji Qing said politely.

Anyway, Ling Hao had helped him before, and he couldn't look at the faces of his subordinates, right?

"That's the case, Zhang Mansion and Ling Mansion have always been at odds, my son-in-law thinks that the other party must be trying to kill people with a knife, I wanted to remind my son before, but I didn't expect that Gongzi had noticed the other party's tricks. Su Lie said seriously.

"Then, is there any other information?" asked Ji Qing.

"Yes, according to reliable information, the Hou Miao family of Yongcheng is discussing with the merchant lord to marry Meng Shangji, and the two families are married......

But rumors suddenly spread at the festival, and good people all said that the reason why Meng Shangji took in Gongzi was to raise Gongzi as a face. ”

"If the Miao family hears about it, they will inevitably take out their anger at the son in the name of martial arts competition, and in addition, the son also specially ordered this to be given to the son. Su Lie said and took out a small and delicate machine box, and with a flick of it, the machine box opened, only to see a small and delicate repeating hand crossbow lying in it, as well as a full twenty fine iron arrows, shining in the cold light of the sun.

"This is Childe's latest development of a repeating hand crossbow, each fine iron arrow is quenched with three kinds of poison, full force to fire the broken stone, I believe that Childe will be useful in the future, all the words are here, farewell. After Su Lie handed the box to Ji Qing, he saluted Ji Qing and left.

"I didn't expect Lao Ling to be so interesting, it is quenching and penetrating, this crossbow, if you kick it in your arms, you can take it out at any time for a defensive counterattack...... That's a lot of money. Ji Qing was amazed, but he didn't get carried away, and after taking a closer look, he carefully closed the trap box and put it in his arms.

"But that guy Lao Ling actually dared to spread rumors that Miss Shang raised me as a noodle ...... It's disgusting. Ji Qing complained for a while.

But Ji Qing also understood in his heart that the reason why Ling Hao wanted to say this to the outside was not to gain fame, not to let Ji Qing be a little minion in the business mansion in obscurity.

"But speaking of which...... He has helped me a lot, and if he is in trouble in the future, I will find an opportunity to help him. "Ji Qing has never liked to owe favors to others, and besides, in this world, the two of them are modern people, and the two modern people have crossed together, if they don't cooperate together for a win-win situation, do they still have to fight with each other?

At this time, in the festival hall, the host is reading the opening remarks.

"Yongcheng ritual festival, once a year, has been 20 years now, and it has gradually become a routine. ”

"The major families of Yongcheng gathered in the Sacrifice Heaven Palace, and the new young diners of each family discussed and learned from each other, showed their talents, and became famous. ”

Ji Qing was ordered by Shang Li not to sit with her before, so she could only stand under the stage and watch the opening ceremony like a martial arts conference.

"What about getting married...... I'm afraid Miss Shang herself doesn't know yet, she's only fourteen years old, although marriage is quite early in this era...... But at this age, Fang Xian should still be in middle school, right?" Ji Qing said and glanced at Shang Li on the stage.

"Sure enough...... I stuffed a bun or a cage cake on my chest, but I was obviously a flat little girl, and I insisted on stuffing something there...... Is. ”

Green Yi also noticed Ji Qing's gaze, and couldn't help but snicker wickedly.

Shang Li puffed out his cheeks, and also noticed that Ji Qing was staring at a certain place in him, snorted coldly, and ignored him anymore.

"Hey...... The temperament is quite big, can such a childlike little girl really be able to bear the heavy responsibility of marrying?"

"Ladies and gentlemen, I feel that in recent years, there has been no eye for martial arts competitions, and it is the talents of various provinces who have been injured in the end...... Therefore, the method of the competition for this festival has been changed. ”

"It's a change of rules. Wei Baiqi couldn't help frowning.

"It's no longer about fighting each other, as we used to, but ...... Use this [Chaofeng] to test your strength. ”

It is said to be a phoenix, but in fact it is just a big bird, but the texture is quite tough, which is suitable for testing.

"It's actually [Chaofeng]?!This is from Xianyang Moyuan, and it's an organ within my Great Qin that is specially used to test the strength of soldiers!"

"Huh, such a powerful thing to take out and test?" Ji Qing was also taken aback.

The world of feelings is not only strong in force, but also in mysterious and unpredictable tricks.

"The method of testing is to let the diners attack the [Chaofeng] pillar with external force, so that the phoenix bird spreads its wings, and the more forceful it is, the greater the amplitude of its wings. ”

"The one with the highest wingspan is the leader of this festival, and the prize is 100 gold, and he can be allowed to mention the name on the Xuanyu wall. ”

Poof! Ji Qing has a feeling of spraying rice again, isn't this the same rule as the qualifiers of the martial arts conference?

"Invite the participating diners from all prefectures to come and gather and take the stage in turn. ”

"Rhubarb, you don't have enough actual combat experience, it just so happens that you don't need to be invited to compete this time, but it is much more beneficial to you. ”

"Yes, hitting the pillars, I'm good at this. Ji Qing rubbed his hands and was eager to try.

"Don't keep your hands for a while, go all out, maybe you can fight for the top spot. Wei Baiqi patted him on the shoulder.

"Well, I understand. ”

"Brother Wei, I'm on. ”

"Go ahead, don't weaken the prestige of my merchant mansion. ”

Shang Li on the stage was full of indifference on the surface, but in fact, she didn't know how worried she was about Ji Qing's accident at this moment.

Rhubarb this guy...... When will I be able to let others save some snacks?

"Miss, you are obviously worried about him, why did you make such a look just now. ”

"Alas, this person Rhubarb, to put it nicely, is a tenacious and indomitable arrogant backbone, to say that it is ugly, it is a stubborn donkey, and he has to come like this, and he is willing to give up when he goes deep into dangerous places. ”

"This time it's just a blow to Chaofeng, rhubarb shouldn't be dangerous, Miss can rest assured. ”

"I hope so. ”

"Let's just hope that there won't be any twists and turns. ”

On the other side, Su Lie, the representative of the Ling Mansion, was also preparing to appear, and Ling Hao was explaining some precautions to him.

"Ah Lie, don't go all out at the beginning, use all your strength for the last blow, Childe, I don't want you to get into the bones because of this kind of thing, after all, you are about to break through the ground lock quadruple, just do your best this time." Ling Hao instructed.

"Yes, Childe. ”

"I don't know what happened to Brother Ji Qing, the rumors I spread before are now in two versions...... Maybe there will be many more in the future. ”

In fact, Ling Hao obviously underestimated how terrifying the lethality of rumors in this era was, and the folk version of Shang Li's taking in Ji Qing had far exceeded Ling Hao's imagination.

But now there are mainly two versions circulating, one is that the merchant has found a new diner, with the body of Tai Sui, but is a fierce and unwise savage.

One is that the merchant has newly found a face with a lotus tongue, which has won the love of the merchant's daughter, and because he is good at pleasing the merchant's lady, although he is an ant, he can still be among the diners.

It's just that Ji Qing is walking among the diners at the moment, but the diners are chattering about him.

"It doesn't look like a wild man, is the rumor wrong?"

"It's not handsome enough, it's mediocre. ”

"Why are these people looking at me so weirdly? Lao Ling, your rumors this time have hurt me...... They don't think I'm a diner by some shady means, do they?"

"Yo, that's the face. "Suddenly, a man came out and spoke.

"The face of an Israelite waiter is not qualified to be in the same column as me and other diners. ”

This guy ...... Let's find the difference.

"Hey, did you have breakfast before you went out?" Ji Qing spoke.

"Of course, heh, it's really a gutless rat, and he doesn't even dare to ......return his mouth."

"I mean, isn't it all that Your Excellency eats at breakfast? As soon as you come up, you spray feces all over my mouth, can I think this is your provocation to me?"
