Chapter 21, the soldiers are coming to the city
A drop of Zhuang Qiu's blood dripped into the groove, and everyone's eyes focused on the stone slab.
The stone slabs of Huaying Hall are treasures that have been handed down from thousands of years ago to the present day, and can test the physical level and future potential of human beings. According to the division of physique and potential, human beings are arranged into different occupations. Like Qin Tianrui, who has just been tested, he is of medium physique at a young age, and his future must be spent on the battlefield.
"Measured by the age of eighteen, the slate is stimulated by blood and highlights the dots, one to ten are inferior, ten to thirty are moderate, and thirty to one hundred are superior. And I activated twenty-six dots at the age of fourteen, and I see how you go beyond. Qin Tianrui said with confidence, there was no longer a strong man like him in the entire Huacheng.
Zhuang Qiu was silent when he heard this, and he was silent, curiously observing the material of the slate. Seriously, he didn't care at all that he would lose to Qin Tianrui, he still knew how many catties and taels he had, he just wanted to try the daily life of the human race in Huacheng. Zhuang Qiu, who has experienced a breakup and is enlightened, has become much less optimistic about winning and losing.
"Look! The slate moved! I don't know who shouted, and everyone held their breath and waited for the result. This group of young people was full of confidence when they saw Zhuang Qiu, and they all looked forward to what magical things would happen.
"Buzz ......"
Blood seeped into the grooves, and the slate began to hum and tremble. Zhuang Qiu pressed the wound on his fingertips and stared at the stone slab intently. A hundred bumps can be evenly distributed on the slate, and when the blood seeps in, the corresponding number of points will be activated according to the potential of each person. Zhuang Qiu's blood entered the groove, and the stone slab slowly moved.
"The shaking of the slate is not strong at all, and you are inferior." Qin Tianrui pinched his waist with both hands and said arrogantly.
Everyone also nodded, agreeing with Qin Tianrui's words. But the slate kept shaking for more than ten seconds, which was really strange. Normally, within five seconds, the bumps on the slate will appear, but now the slate shows no signs of activating the bumps except for shaking.
"What's going on? We in Hwaseong have never heard of the ...... of zero potential since ancient times" Just when the old man stroked his beard and fell into deep thought, and everyone was amazed, the assembly alarm bell of Hwaseong rang urgently.
"Dangdangdang...... Dangdangdang......"
"It's a wake-up call! There is an invasion of foreign enemies! ”
The entire Huaying Hall was agitated, and this group of indignant young people did not need to command, they ran out of the main hall in an orderly manner and rushed to the assembly point of the city tower. Qin Tianrui glared at Zhuang Qiu twice, put down the sentence "Count you lucky", and immediately rushed out with the large army.
The eldest princess didn't have time to arrange Zhuang Qiu, and Qin Tianyu urgently returned to the post she should return to. At this time, only Zhuang Qiu and the old man were left in Huaying Palace. Zhuang Qiu shrugged his shoulders and looked understated: "It's really in a hurry." ”
"Buzz ......"
The shaking of the stone slab continued, and it was the first time that the old man who had been in charge of Huaying Hall for decades had encountered such a strange thing. But now that the foreign enemy is invading, the old man can't care about Zhuang Qiu's test results, and hurriedly takes the slate cover.
"I'm sorry, young man. At present, the old man also has responsibilities, and your test can't wait. The old man raised his hand to cover the slate.
The vibration of the slate intensified, and even the old man who lifted the lid couldn't help but be suspicious in his heart and stayed for a few seconds.
"呲~~~"
At this moment, a subtle friction sound came, and the old man's eyes widened, and his gaze scanned the whole board, and he knew that the result was coming. But the hundred bumps on the entire slate are not revealed!
"What's going on?" The old man frowned.
Zhuang Qiu also stared at the slate, as an outsider, he was not bound by the convex law of the slate. He pointed to the groove where the blood had previously dripped and said to the old man, "It's here, it's bulging." ”
The old man was startled, and his body and mind trembled. When he saw that the concave in the center of the stone slab was slowly bulging, he raised his head suddenly, and stared at Zhuang Qiu with his eyes: "You...... Who are you? ”
"In the autumn of Xiazhuang." Zhuang Qiu replied respectfully.
The test results were out, and the old man hurriedly covered the slate, but the emotions in his heart did not end several times, but became more and more excited. He hurriedly grabbed Zhuang Qiu's wrist, ignoring his image and etiquette, "Follow me!" ”
Zhuang Qiu was in a fog, but the old man understood in his heart. The prophecy that has been waiting for a thousand years has finally arrived!
Almost running out of the Huaying Palace, the old man dragged Zhuang Qiu through the corridor and went straight to the central hall of Huacheng. Along the way, the humans who were anxious to respond to the battle were one after another, and the atmosphere in the entire Hwaseong City became much more tense.
Heading straight for the central hall, a long table sits majestically in the center. In front of the long table, there are dozens of human beings with extraordinary temperament. When the old man pulled Zhuang Qiu into the main hall, the door of the central hall slowly closed, and in the hall, candlelight was lit.
"Elder Xia Dong, you're late." The middle-aged man on the main seat of the long table is majestic and domineering, and this person is like a lion king's roar. By the way, the eyes of the others also focused on the old man.
"Xia Dong, why are you late? Don't you know the gravity of the situation? How can you bring an irrelevant person? "The candlelight flickered and the atmosphere was dreary. There is also a bad tone to the duty.
The old man let go of Zhuang Qiu's wrist and clenched his fists in apology: "I have lost precious time, but this person is likely to be the one we have been waiting for a thousand years in Huacheng!" ”
As soon as these words came out, the dull hall immediately caused an uproar.
"Millennium? How can it be? What is the evidence! ”
"Thousands of years, ancestors have been waiting for thousands of years, just waiting for such a human being?"
"It's not good to be thin, what strength do you have?"
……
At this time, the person in the main seat who had not spoken all this time cast his eyes on Zhuang Qiu in the shadows in the depths, "You go forward and walk." ”
"You'd better speak clearly, for I don't understand what you are talking about for a thousand years." Zhuang Qiu did not move forward, facing the Hwaseong Supreme Summit, he was extremely calm, "I don't want to waste your best opportunity to fight against the enemy because of me." ”
Faced with Zhuang Qiu's attitude, everyone scoffed. They all buttoned him up with unashamed hats, but this Elder Xia Dong insisted that Zhuang Qiu was a thousand-year-old person, "Tell the city lord, it is recorded in the ancestral hometown that anyone who can activate the groove by dripping blood on the test stone slab will be a powerful person who can change the status quo of my human race!" ”
"That's right." The lord of the city nodded and said in a deep voice.
"It's this young man, after testing, who activated the center groove." Xia Dong was sincere, "The old man's words are true." ”
The central hall caused an uproar again, and just when everyone was talking, the soldiers outside the door pushed the door and entered: "Tell the city lord, there are monsters coming to attack in the east, west, and north of my Huacheng, and at this time, the western enemy has come to the city." ”
"Oops, it came so fast!"
