Le Zhengqing poked the rice in the bowl, and said with hatred in his heart: "You wait for this princess!" ”

Jiang Rong poured a bowl of wine for Le Zhengchuan, "Uncle, what is the matter with you coming this time?" ”

Before Le Zhengchuan could speak, Le Zhengqing preemptively said: "Uncle Wang, you are not allowed to say it!" ”

Jiang Ronghu looked at her suspiciously, how could he feel that she was a little annoyed and angry. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

But the more she didn't let her, the more itchy her heart became.

Le Zhengchuan didn't hide it, and quickly satisfied her curiosity.

"First, I want to find Ah Rong and see how you are doing; Second, it is for Aqing's marriage. ”

"Marriage?" Jiang Rong glanced at Le Zhengqing, thinking of her princess status, "Could it be a marriage?" ”

Le Zhengqing suddenly called out, "What a marriage!" That is the conclusion of a covenant of friendship between the two countries! I don't understand you either! ”

Jiang Rong unceremoniously poured salt on her wound, "I don't have to marry, so naturally I don't understand." ”

When he returned to the Li Mansion, Le Zhengchuan and Jiang Rong's family naturally exchanged pleasantries for a while, and then at Li Yi's kind invitation, they also stayed.

In this way, the huge house can be regarded as lively, Li Yi and his wife don't know how happy they are, and they should entertain them with the best.

After dinner, Jiang Rong took Jiang Yu and Jiang Yi to play in his yard, Le Zhengqing, Li Che and others all came over, and the small courtyard was very lively for a while.

Although Le Zhengqing and Jiang Rong don't get along, they don't like Jiang Yu and Jiang Yi, especially Jiang Yi, who is only five years old now, and it's time for fun, pink and tender meat, don't be too cute!

She was reluctant to let go of her hugging.

It's a pity that Jiang Yi is the most clingy sister, so she doesn't like to deal with strangers.

A group of people talked and laughed about the mountains, chatting about the upcoming refining competition, time passed in a flash, and it was time to wash and sleep.

Li Che and others said goodbye one after another, and Jiang Yu also led Jiang Yi away, but Le Zhengqing still didn't leave.

"Why are you staying? Do you want to sleep together? ”

"Whew! I just want to ask you, that dragon stone seed was actually gambled on by you, right? ”

Li Che obviously knows Jiang Rong and has a close relationship, but he pretended to be a stranger when he was in Zhenshi Zhai, and he didn't have to think about it to know that there must be something greasy here!

Jiang Rong was noncommittal, took out his pajamas and hung them on the screen, and prepared to take a bath.

"Hey, just tell me, I promise not to spread it, it will ruin Li Che's reputation."

Jiang Rong took off his clothes and stepped into the bathtub, "Then tell me first, how did you gamble on several high-grade jadeites in a row?" ”

Le Zhengqing subconsciously wanted to refuse, how could she tell her the secret? This is absolutely not a no-go.

But she was very curious about how Jiang Rong had gambled on that dragon stone seed.

Didn't she say that she was hiding an ulterior secret like herself?

Thinking like this, Le Zhengqing's breathing suddenly became a little short.

She has had a special sense of those treasures since she was a child, and when she is older, she can even sense them from a distance.

And when her hand touches the treasure, she will feel a "breath", and the whole person will be very comfortable.

This is probably what the world calls "treasure", right?

Le Zhengqing felt that she had gained insight into Jiang Rong's secret, but she didn't know her own, so she immediately covered her mouth and secretly laughed, and left with peace of mind.

In the night, a group of black-clothed people crossed the mountains, bypassed the gate of Danyang County, and directly crossed Jiujing Mountain into the territory of Daqi.

In front of the black-clothed people, there was a silver-faced man, and behind him, followed by a woman holding a piano, and a black-robed man.

They walked through the mountains and forests at great speed, and soon came to the bottom of the mountain.

At the foot of the mountain, the native dogs in the village smelled the unusual smell and barked one after another.

"Wang-"

The silver-faced man ordered, "Qinsu, I'll leave it to you here." ”

The woman holding the qin, that is, the qin element in his mouth, pressed her hand on the strings, hooked and picked, and a burst of piano sound came out.

The men in black behind her seemed to have heard some kind of order, and four people jumped out of the plane and hurried towards the four directions of the village.

In a few moments, the four men returned, covered in blood, and the village was silent when there was no longer the sound of dog barking. The villagers who slept peacefully were also brutally killed.

The silver-faced man nodded slightly, "Not bad." Qin Su, you lead the fifty blood puppets to take charge of Danyang's side, and then answer Ji Xing. Gong An, you take fifty blood puppets to Jizhou and strive to occupy Shangjing in the shortest possible time. ”

"Yes, my lord." The two bowed their heads and answered in unison.

Not long after they left, the dead villagers in the village actually stood up again, but their faces were very different from before, they looked like walking corpses, their faces were pale and colorless, and they were quite miserable in the light of the moon.

His eyes were blood-red, the corners of his mouth were wide open, revealing sharp teeth inside, and his nails were much longer.

If there was one word to describe them, it would be zombies. That is, the "blood golem" in the silver-faced population.

Blood golems feed only on blood, and the newly-born blood golems have an even stronger thirst for blood. They all walked towards the place where there was a human smell.

And this is exactly what the silver-faced man wants to see.

Five days have passed in a blink of an eye, and it has come to the first day of October, the day when the refining competition officially opens.

The refiner competition is not an on-site competition of the trial, but a competition of finished products that have been prepared by each of them.

After all, it takes months to successfully forge a weapon, and it can take months at least, or even up to several years, and it is impossible to display it on the spot.

Therefore, the interval between the refining competitions is five years, and these five years are the preparation time for the contestants, and when it comes to the competition, it is the real competition.

The test venue is on Xiaotai Mountain in the north of Danyang County.

It is said to be a mountain, but in fact it is just a larger dirt slope. The slope is trapezoidal, no more than three feet high, and steps are built on all sides to lead to a wide platform at the top.

There are three things in the competition, three points into the stone, gold and stone strikes, and strong collisions.

Around Xiaotai Mountain, pavilions and terraces were built for watching the games, and the rich and powerful people had already set their positions, while the people who had no money could only crowd into a farther place to watch.

Early in the morning, people from all over the world rushed to the foot of Xiaotai Mountain, took up a position and waited.

The start time of the competition was set at the beginning of the year, and there was still more than half an hour before the opening, and Xiaotai Mountain was surrounded by crowds of people.

There are many vendors on the roadside, selling their wares, and all kinds of shouts are endless.

When Jiang Rong and his party arrived, they couldn't even get in the carriage, so they could only walk through the crowd on foot, and finally came to a small building on the west side of Xiaotai Mountain.

This is the location that Li Yi has already set, there are two floors above and below, where they can watch the competition on the platform, and the bottom is a temporary resting place.

Li Xin and Sheng Jin'er took Jiang Yi's little hand and sat down on the couch in front of the window.

Jiang Rong and the others sat in other positions, drinking tea and chatting, or talking about martial arts tricks, or looking into the distance, leisurely.

Jiang Yi sat for a while and asked, "Why hasn't Daddy come out yet?" When will I see him? ”

Li Xin nodded his head, "Look at your impatience, you haven't started yet." We'll have to wait another two quarters of an hour. ”

Sheng Jin'er next to him hugged him into his arms and comforted him: "Brother Ping, don't worry, I'll be able to see your father soon." Come, my aunt will peel a little orange for you to eat. ”

There is a row of tables and chairs on the north side of Xiaotai Mountain, which are prepared for the host of the competition, the Marquis of Yangling and the commander of Danyang County.

When the competition was less than a quarter of an hour away, these people arrived late and took their seats one by one.

As soon as the time came, a person on the stage held a gong and slammed it, and the sound came far away. After three knocks, everyone fell silent and looked at the stage.

Yangling Marquis Xu Yu stood up and made a speech to everyone, the main content mentioned three points, one is that the final winner of this refining competition will be awarded the title of marquis by the imperial court. The second is the rules of the competition, and the third is a non-nutritious encouraging words, as well as thanking the emperor for his grace and so on.

Then, the county magistrate Peng Zeyan also stood up and said it, and it was not until two o'clock that the long-awaited competition officially began.

Jiang Yi was impatient to wait, and pouted: "Those two are so verbose!" ”

Li Xin patted him lightly, "Don't be rude, those two, one is the Marquis of Yangling, and the other is the county order, they are going to be heard by them, and they will spank you." ”

Jiang Yi immediately covered his buttocks, looking scared.

Sheng Jin'er couldn't help laughing, and pinched his red little face, "Your mother, she scares you, who dares to beat our brother Ping'er, you come and tell your aunt, and your aunt will help you clean him up!" ”

Li Xin couldn't help but glance at her, "What my sister said, I don't have to teach the child badly." ”

Sheng Jin'er didn't care and said: "Our brother Ping is a good boy, where can he teach bad in one or two sentences?" Besides, with us, who can bully him? ”

On the stage, the competition is already in full swing.

I saw that there were ten people on the stage, each of whom was holding a weapon in his hand, or a gun or a sword, or a knife or a dagger.

Everyone has a thick stone slab in front of them, which is a foot thick, and the content of this competition is to use the weapon in his hand to break through the stone slab.

The winners advance to the next game.

In this case, the sharpness of the weapon is assessed, of course, whether it can be done or not has a lot to do with the martial arts of the foundry master himself.

In general, it is necessary for the forger and the weapon in his hand to be powerful in order to be able to pass this level.

Whenever I saw someone on the stage smashing the slate with a sword, the audience below would applaud, and the scene was very hot.

The people don't have much entertainment on weekdays, so they watch it with relish. However, in the eyes of people like Jiang Rong who have seen many "big scenes", the competition is actually lackluster and nothing to look forward to.

Isn't it just round after round of people going up and cutting down slates?

It's far from the flower fighting competition in Qingxia Town a few years ago, at least you can see the flowers that are all good at that time. At this moment, there is only one rough man repeating the same action on top, which is really boring.

It wasn't until his father Jiang Yu came on the field that Jiang Rong cheered up and paid full attention. (To be continued.) )
