Chapter Seventy-Six: They X Solicit
Literati participated in politics and entered the court to seek wisdom for the country, and warriors joined the army to serve the country on the battlefield. They are the winners of the tournament, which naturally means the latter.
As soon as he met the Qingwang, he bluntly said that he wanted them to join the army?
They came from all over the world, and there were only two aborigines from the Green Country, and they came to participate in the competition for the rich rewards.
There was a commotion off the field.
One of them, an old man with a hunched waist and a beard, happily opened his mouth first, "I am old and old, and I am used to being unrestrained and debauched all my life, and I want to be happy when I participate in the competition, just to get the reward I deserve." ”
The young man beside him nodded in agreement, apparently not intending either.
Qingwang leaned back on the seat, his blue eyes were half-constricted, and he couldn't see his emotions.
The white-haired eunuch who opened his mouth to ask questions squinted his slender eyes, and still smiled after listening to his words, "The king did not mean to force you, it was all voluntary, and the reward would not be less." ”
The eight-handed bearded old man bowed his head happily, then stood to the side, and said no more.
The other six also expressed their positions, some hugged their fists to show their loyalty, and some politely expressed their intentions, and when it was the turn of Ting Sheng and Meng Jue, the number of the two parties was just one to one.
Ting Sheng kept standing with his hands in his hands, looking down at the side, Meng Jue tilted his head and leaned on him, looking bored and sleepy.
"What about you?" Qingwang, who had not spoken, suddenly looked at them fixedly and sat up straight.
"In the lower ......" Ting Sheng lowered his head slightly and sighed softly, "I have a physical illness, although I have a heart, I can't do it." ”
"Oh?" Someone walked to the throne from the back and whispered something, Qingwang's pupils shrank, and he turned his face and smiled, "Physical problems are trivial, you don't have to worry!" Have you heard of the Lin family's rejuvenation? ”
Ting Sheng raised his hand and inadvertently touched Meng Jue, who was about to fall asleep, and reminded him to stand up straight, "Naturally, I have heard of the Lin family's name." There was expectation and a hint of bitterness in his words, "I have also been to Xinglin Villa many times before for consultation, but unfortunately I was turned away." ”
"If you can serve the country, I will make decisions for you!" Qingwang laughed.
He said, his eyes like a torch, "Now tell me your answer!" ”
Ting Sheng clenched his fists, as if breathing a sigh of relief, "I am willing to serve the work of dogs and horses!" ”
King Qing stood up and looked at the ten people of His Highness.
"Free wine!" He raised his hand heroically, and his voice was loud.
From each side of the hall, five young palace maids walked out, their waists twisted slightly, and they held the white jade wine lord with both hands, and stood in front of the ten people of His Royal Highness.
"This king admires powerful warriors the most, and this cup is a sign of respect." After Qingwang finished speaking, he picked up the full wine glass on his side and drank it all.
The wine of a kingdom's king is not allowed to be rejected by them.
His Highness drank it all in their cups.
Ting Sheng raised his hand to take the white jade wine jue in front of Meng Jue, "He's still young, I'll take his place." ”
His voice was very soft, he looked in the direction of Qingwang, gently pushed up the mask, revealed his elegant lips, and drank two glasses in a row without hesitation.
It wasn't until they left the palace and put on their respective weapons that the ten people who were summoned to see the Green King were relieved, and they left the palace and dispersed.
The game was moved to the afternoon, and the battle between them was not over.
The words in the imperial city, the attitude of the Qing King, how much is true and how much is false, all of which are impossible to guess.
On the way back to Xiaoxiang Pavilion, Ting Sheng caressed the returning white jade flute, with a faint expression.
"He smells dangerous." Meng Jue suddenly said softly, "Young Master, is there anything strange in the wine?" ”
When leaving the palace, Meng Jue felt a burning gaze, and he hurriedly turned around, only to see the back of King Qing leaving.
The child's instincts told him that the king was dangerous.
"Wine should be ordinary wine." Seeing that he rarely showed a worried look, Ting Sheng squinted and touched his hair to reassure him.
If there is really something mixed in the wine, and he can't detect it, I'm afraid that there will be many strangers to help him under the Qingwang banner.
The sky was gray, and the rain that had been silent for a few days was about to fall on the city.
The street where Xiaoxiang Pavilion is located has very few people during the day, and pedestrians rush by.
A brightly dressed woman approached, smiling and her eyes watery.
When she passed by Tingsheng, a charming smile appeared on her lips, her lips curled her lips, and she turned her head and threw a flying kiss at him, "Sure enough, you are as good-looking as I thought." ”
Her words were crisp, and they sounded like she was being coquettish to her lover.
She didn't look back, her back to them slowly walked away, her waist swayed slightly, and a femme fatale silver hairpin flashed with a cold light on her sideburns.
"I don't like it! Dislike! Meng Jue pulled Tingsheng's clothes, frowned, and urged him to hurry back to Xiaoxiang Pavilion.
The woman she had never seen before had an unconcealable smell of blood, mixed with the rich aroma of rouge, which became more and more unpleasant.
Ting Sheng looked helplessly at the red-haired soul servant who suddenly became emotional, and he didn't have any extra thoughts about the strange woman who passed by.
Tonight, he entered the underground of the Imperial City with Shangguan seniors to check the situation of the Green Yao Kingdom Protector Array, which was what he was currently considering.
Repair the Great Array and retrieve the White Tiger Soul from Bai Ye, and it was time for him and Meng Jue to return to Gulan Villa.
His time is running out, and the fate that the soul master can't avoid will come soon-
In the evening before leaving, it started to rain.
The ticking raindrops fell on a pond in the cloud palace, rippling in circles.
Sitting alone in the octagonal pavilion with his cheeks up, Chen Xiaolazy listened quietly to the rain for a while, and found that it was still difficult to calm down in his heart, so he simply went back to the house and took the bow and arrow he picked up in the weapon shop during the day and went to the martial arts training room of the Cloud Palace.
When she asked the owner of the weapons shop, she learned that bows and crossbows were only available in the army, and that there was no one in the market to sell them. Disappointed, she browsed through the other weapons in the store and finally settled on a small bow.
This is a bamboo bow, the whole body is dark green, and the bow body is smooth into a streamlined shape.
She had several archery experiences with her friends in the archery field of the original world, because she was sent to learn taekwondo since she was a child, her strength was greater than that of ordinary women, and she was praised by the coach for her quick start.
Chen Xiaolan remembered what Su Yan had told her, so he moved his mind to use the bow.
She has always insisted on exercising, but after all, the time is too short, and it is still difficult for her to protect herself when she really encounters opponents.
Joyley is gifted with divine powers, and the healing power of the white night is amazing...... Only she will be a liability, and she will be protected every time.
She knew her weakness, and she knew that they didn't mind protecting her.
But she was not reconciled.
Now that their team lacks the power to attack from a distance, although she may only be able to play a weak role in using the bow after Meng Jue joins in the future, she still wants to give it a try.
"Joy invades the heart, anger hurts the liver, sorrow hurts the bowels ......"
