Conflict can be said to be on the verge of eruption. 【】

Fortunately, the security personnel in the venue quickly stepped forward to isolate the two sides, and some media reporters also swarmed around. Several responsible persons of the organizer and the organizer on the stage immediately arrived and persuaded both sides to calm down in order to avoid the expansion of the situation.

As one of the parties, although Ma Liang is angry in his heart, after all, he is still a little measured, and if he does not give up or even fight on today's occasion, it will embarrass Old Man Lu and Director Ma.

So Ma Liang didn't scold endlessly like a splash.

However, Dai Lì and Moss, who were already at a loss, sat back at the table with an extremely arrogant and disdainful expression, ignoring the attitude of everyone.

The onlookers were furious, and someone immediately tried to come forward and scold Dai Lì, Moss.

At this moment, a middle-aged man in a suit and leather shoes, who looked to be in his forties, with a thin body and a mustache, walked up to Dai Lì and Moss, leaned over and whispered something. Then Moss hesitated, stood up with a face full of yīn, and walked out of the banquet hall as if no one was around.

The middle-aged man with a beard bowed slightly to the angry crowd, apologized, and walked aside.

Everyone was a little surprised, some people thought that the middle-aged man with the eight-character beard was a Chinese American who came to participate in the seminar, and he knew Daimao Moss: some people thought that he might be a staff member of the organizer of the seminar, and his words were still more weighty......

However, Ma Liang remembered the subordinates of Director Ma, a middle-aged man with a peaceful beard.

After all, most of the people in the venue are old people who have studied and learned all year round and have great respect for traditional culture and thought, so they will not be unforgiving and have to argue with others to the end, but in most cases, they will treat others with a moderate and gentle attitude. In particular, Dai Lì and Moss had already left, and the conference was still in progress, so everyone didn't bother to pursue anything, and returned to their seats with concerned and comforting smiles towards Ma Liang, Wu Qiong, and Xiaobai.

"Xiaobai is good, don't be naughty and obedient anymore."

Ma Liang gently rubbed Xiaobai's head, handed her to Wu Qiong's arms, and then walked to the main table with an apologetic face.

It's like a little episode, and no one is going to pay attention to it anymore.

The award ceremony continued.

And because of this sudden incident, Ma Liang's previous speech, which was sincere but inevitably pretended to be suspicious in the eyes of others, and his words about wanting to give the first place to Xian, did not seem to attract everyone's attention and thinking very much. The host Xianchu and the executive Xi Tan Zhixun smiled and praised Ma Liang for his humility, and his achievements were well deserved.

Naturally, the second place winner, Master Ngouwabi, should speak, but the old man dozed off and smiled humbly.

Mrs. Zava, who won third place, made a few polite words.

The other winners also said a few words or declined......

At the end of the meeting, the expert judges, the organizers and leaders of the organizers of the seminar, and the winners gathered on the main stage to take a group photo.

For a while, the magnesium lights in the audience flashed, and the applause was thunderous.........

Although he won the first place in this fortune prediction contest and the scenery is infinite, after all, the people who came to participate in the high-level academic seminar are all old guys, and the Chinese people have a good face, especially these old people with traditional ideas, and they pay more attention to it. Therefore, at the dinner at the end of the seminar, there was no situation where everyone gathered around to talk and toast with him as Ma Liang feared.

And at the dinner, no one informed Ma Liang in advance and invited him to sit on a special seat.

It seems to be a bit of a cold reception.

However, this situation is in line with Ma Liang's wishes, he and Wu Qiong and Xiaobai are still sitting in their original positions, chatting with several guests present in a peaceful mood with great humility.

"The pony is young and promising, and the future is immeasurable!"

"I'm ashamed to be lucky......

"Humility, Professor Lu has a student like you, he is really a famous teacher and a high apprentice."

"I am honored to be under Mr. Lu."

Wu Qiong, who was sitting next to Ma Liang, was particularly happy tonight, and she could clearly feel that there were people looking here all the time throughout the banquet, and what they were concerned about was naturally the first winner of the Divination and Prediction Competition, Lu Xiang'an's high-ranking apprentice young Ma Liang.

As a girlfriend, Wu Qiong naturally feels extremely happy and glorious.

Also happy is Xiaobai, the girl seems to feel that as the sister of today's first place winner, she should enjoy more envious eyes and praise words, so she always looks around with a smug look with a small face held high from time to time.

At this dinner, Dai Lì, Moss and Bai Zongshan did not attend.

It is said that after Moss left the venue in the evening, he had already said goodbye: and Bai Zongshan said goodbye to the organizer very politely after the award ceremony, and the staff arranged by the organizer sent him to the airport Even if there is no flight today, Bai Zongshan has no shame to stay in the Yalong Bay Hotel.

And because there is no Dai lì and Moss, there is a seat on this table.

However, even if someone wanted to come to this table to sit and talk with Ma Liang, but because of the problem of face, for fear of being ashamed and so on, this chair has been empty.

At the same table, there were also two old white men with blond hair and blue eyes.

They won the sixth place in the table tennis prediction competition, which is not bad, and with the help of the translator, they chatted with the Chinese people present very warmly.

One of the old men, John Herbert, smiled: "Mr. Ma, you said at the award ceremony that when you competed, you didn't really finish the competition, and one of the questions was because you didn't have enough time, so you filled it in by feeling, so can you tell me which question it is?" ”

Herbert's question made everyone present quiet.

Even the guests at the next table who heard this question also turned their eyes to look at Ma Liangyi and them, and they were also suspicious.

In fact, after the award ceremony, because the organizers and the experts of the jury informed in advance that any contestant who has any questions about the results of the competition can go to review the answer sheets of the competition. Please note that it is possible for participants to view the media and journalists.

In view of the relationship between Ma Liang and Lu Xiangan and Ma Guang, there are naturally many skeptics who won the first place this time.

Therefore, there are many people who go to review the competition questions.

Of course, the reason why they go to review the questions is very high-sounding, and the answer sheet that is called learning and "learning" is naturally the top three answer sheets, especially the first place answer sheet.

More than anything else, no one pays too much attention to it.

So now many people already know that there is a small mistake in Ma Liang's answers: What is the total number of people who participated in the International Symposium on Easy Learning Theory and Application in addition to the staff?

White counts into it.

The vast majority of people have miscalculated this question, some are afraid that it is an error in the calculation, and some are correct, but like Ma Liang, Xiaobai is not counted: Master Ngouwabi, who is in second place, is filled in correctly.

But Maleonn's advantage is that in two questions, he accurately calculates except half of the points, so he also gets a higher score than others: in addition, he handed in the answer sheet in advance, which means that the person who completed the answer first won him a higher score.

Note that this is not an exam but a competition.

Therefore, if you finish the competition questions in advance, you have to get points.

And the most amazing thing is that Maleonn and Master Ngouwabi's "answer" to the last question is extremely accurate: Maleonn fills in the first place, and Master Ngouwabi fills in the second place.

Let's not talk about the last question.

The accurate and detailed calculations on Ma Liang's answer sheet alone are enough to convince everyone to no longer question the truth and fairness of this divination and prediction competition.

Faced with Herbert's question, Ma Liang had a shy smile on his face, and he did not hide it, and said truthfully: "I'm not afraid of the jokes of my predecessors when I say it, at the end of the game, I considered that the time was not enough for me to calculate the fifth question, so I filled in the 'answer' for the fifth question." It's not that I'm conceited, it's because I don't have self-confidence. I feel that after all, I am young, and I have not accumulated enough experience and knowledge, even if I carefully calculate the results of the first four questions, I will not necessarily do better than others, let alone get good results. That's why I'm going to fill in the first answer. ”

Hearing Ma Liang's words, although everyone was a little suspicious, they also nodded.

This reason is said in the past.

If what Ma Liang said is true, then this kid's luck is really good, and it makes people jealous!

For all the contestants who participated in this competition, it is very clear that the fifth question is a very contradictory, complex and sensitive question, the current four questions are very important, no matter how good the results are, the results of the fifth question are ranked incorrectly, then you should have been in the top three, you may fall behind the ................

At this moment, Ngouwabi, the old black man who had been dozing off, walked over with a smile and politely bowed down to everyone present.

At the same time, he said, "Master Ngouwabi wants to have a few words with you. ”

Ngouwabi's waist was not lightly bent, almost ninety degrees.

Such an attitude made everyone present feel a little embarrassed and unbearable, and they all smiled and hurriedly got up to salute Ngouwabi and invited him to take a seat.

Master Ngouwabi smiled and sat down on the empty seat.

After sitting down, Master Ngouwabi did not say anything polite, but looked at Maleonn with a pair of eyes that were covered by eyelids and only slits, and muttered something. Fu Ze said with a smile: "Master Ngouwabi said that Mr. Ma's divination skills surprised him, and he filled in the fifth question of the competition, Answer, which was also correct~

2nd place. ”

It is certainly not clear what this so-called second and fifth questions mean.

But everyone here knows it.

Some people are surprised, and some people have known it for a long time.

Although Ma Liang didn't review the questions, he had already guessed that this black old man from South Africa had filled in the fifth question correctly. Ma Liang even thought in his heart, has this old man already divined, and the first place is me?

"Master Ngouwabi's divination skills are equally admirable." Ma Liang said sincerely.

This sentence is Ma Liang's heartfelt words.

Although Mr. Lu has secretly mentioned it, in the calculation of the fifth question, he may use the divination and prediction of "iron pen to determine the world". But Ma Liang knew very well in his heart that he was indeed a little blind at that time, out of the mentality of breaking the jar and breaking it.

And the second place of Master Ngouwabi is obviously not blind.

To the surprise of those present, Master Ngouwabi did not say anything more, but ate and drank slowly and unhurriedly, as if dozing off as always......

This old man, it's weird.

Just to come here to show off his mother, everyone couldn't cry and laugh in their hearts, and naturally their expressions didn't flow this meaning, but they didn't know what to communicate with this old man who seemed to be eating and falling asleep at any time.

What's even more strange is ......,.........

Ma Hao didn't want to say anything more, he held the wine glass to the side and lowered his head slightly, as if he tasted the wine and seemed to think of something.

Well, the scene is a little awkward, and the atmosphere is a little weird.

No one knew that the first and second place winners of the Fortune Prediction Contest were using this embarrassing state to communicate with ordinary people in an unbelievable way.

That's right!

It is the art of mental communication.

This kind of mental power communication technique, when it reaches a certain level, can completely transcend the language barrier and achieve the true sense of psychic one, that is, from the bō movement of the mental power, to feel the meaning that the other party wants to express, which is very detailed and not inferior to the verbal communication.

It's just that this way of communication is a bit difficult for Ma Liang.

He wasn't used to it yet.

But it can be done.

Master Ngouwabi said: "Dai lì, the reason why Moss attacked me with magic is because her divination in the competition is, I am first, she is second: Bai Zongshan attacked me and Dai lì, Moss, because Bai Zongshan's divination is that I am the first, Dai lì, Moss is second, and he is third.

Both of them were afraid to interfere with their opponents in their divination and answers, so as to seize the first place......"

When Ma Liang sensed this mental power knocking on the periphery of his consciousness, he immediately keenly judged that it was Master Ngouwabi who was talking to him, so he incorporated this mental power into his consciousness and carefully pondered the meaning of this mental power.

It was difficult but could be roughly analyzed, and Ma Liang slowly considered and controlled the frequency of his mental power to transmit his reply: "Why didn't they calculate that it was me?" ”

Master Ngouwabi said, "Because, their realm is not enough. ”

"Master, did you deduce that it was me?" Yes, I finished the game before you, and their attacks on me were in vain..............."

"Admire, admire!"

Master Ngouwabi said: "I sensed a change in the air during the race, and it was a force that could control the competition, like lava surging under a volcano, breaking through the shackles of the earth and the mountains, so I know that the first thing you did was the fifth question. I would like to ask, did you use magic to change the laws of nature when you were working on the fifth question? ”

"I don't want to deny it, but it's really unintentional." Ma Liang's answer is a little ambiguous, but it is also realistic and does not hide it in the slightest.

And Master Ngouwabi was obviously able to understand the meaning of Ma Liang's words, and did not dwell on it anymore, and said in his thoughts: "I have comprehended the ancient magic power of the [China] country, and I have also learned a lot from it, thank you or, I should say thank you master, thank you for the magic culture of the [China] country." ”

"The master has won the prize."

This year's International Symposium on Easy Learning Theory and Application came to a perfect conclusion.

The organizers and organizers warmly invited the guests to travel in Sanya, Hainan for three days. All the international friends stayed, and most of the people in China and the Chinese abroad chose to leave Sanya and go home, only ten days away from the traditional Chinese New Year, who doesn't want to go home early for the New Year?

On the morning of the 19th day of the lunar month.

In a business-type VIP lounge at Sanya Phoenix International Airport, Lu Xiangan, Ma Liang, Wu Qiong, and Xiaobai sat on comfortable leather sofas and chatted with Director Ma, who came to see them off in person.

Director Ma said a little apologetically: "Xiaoliang, next year's International Magic Exchange Conference may have to be postponed a little......

"Oh?" Ma Liang smiled: "When will it be?" ”

"Late summer and early autumn."

Lu Xiangan smiled and waved his hand, and interjected: "Dean Ma, in my opinion, Xiao Liang doesn't need to attend next year's magic exchange conference. Of course, with your fame, Dean Ma, you personally organized this magic exchange conference, and I think you should be able to invite masters from all over the world, and the scale of the magic conference is unprecedented, which is indeed desirable.

However, Xiao Liang is still young after all, and although his magic cultivation realm is high, his mentality is not serious enough. ”

Ma Liang was stunned for a moment, not understanding why Old Man Lu would say this.

Director Ma frowned, and then said with a smile: "It is precisely because the rivers and lakes are sinister and Xiaoliang is young, so seeing more of this kind of scene will definitely help him a lot in terms of mental maturity." Just like this Fortune Prediction Competition, didn't Mr. Lu also have this mentality to let Xiaoliang participate? ”

, the art of small arithmetic prediction, is a literary art, and there is no big drawback. Lu Xiangan shook his head and said.

"But Xiao Liang came out on top!" Director Ma emphasized, but his tone was gentle, his expression was peaceful, and he smiled: "From this point of view, Mr. Lu's divination and prediction skills are really the pinnacle, and they can be called the best in the rivers and lakes. ”

Lu Xiangan did not deny it, and said with a smile: "Xiaoliang not only got the first place, but also the identity certificate of the director of the International Association of Easy Learning, Dean Ma should know very well that this is an academic position recognized by the world and our country, and this seminar is also formal." ”@。
