Chapter 22: Out of Control
The first three were passed in Ho Nuo's anxious waiting...
It was the first time for He Nuo to show up in such a high-profile situation, and he was inevitably a little apprehensive in his heart.
However, from the cheers of the people around him, he faintly heard the winners of the first three games, the first was the victory of Lan Guo in the imperial court's proton Mo, the second was the victory of Zhao Mo, the eldest son of Wu Dewei's deputy lieutenant Zhao Mo, that is, Zhao Rui's brother Zhao Mingzhao, and the third was the victory of Cangguo's proton Ying Lingyue in the imperial court.
He Nuo thought for a moment in his heart: "These princes are pledged in the imperial court, but after all, they still have the resources of a country as their backing, and their strength should not be underestimated. ”
As the third scene ended, there was a brief silence. He Nuo took a deep breath and knew that it was his turn to play.
Rong Ying jumped into the ring first, raised his hands, and cheered, after all, he was the adopted son of Rong Qing, the commander of the Flying Eagle Guard, and most people would give him some face, especially those Flying Eagle Guards who were guarding, and they were cheering with their throats.
When it was He Nuo's turn to play, there was not so much movement, He Nuo looked around and found that his three friends, Meng Ruo, Meng Xiaochen and Mu Yanxi, were tightly surrounding the ring, stretching their necks and waving to him, especially Meng Ruo, who was almost attached to the ring.
He Nuo smiled, his heart warm.
He Nuo slowly walked into the ring, glancing at the main platform with his spare eyes, his father's figure was hidden in the crowd of officials, and he couldn't see it clearly.
On the main pedestal, Rong Qing looked at his adopted son in the ring, he had overlooked it countless times, the excitement at the beginning gradually dissipated, and now he is old, one person is above ten thousand people, recalling that he entered the palace when he was a child, as a little eunuch, he didn't dare to say a word wrong, he didn't dare to go wrong a step, he trembled and stayed up for decades before he came out, and now he can be ranked with the most powerful people in the empire, but he still feels dissatisfied, he always feels that someone behind him is laughing at him, laughing at him in order to get these, sold all his life.
He looked at this adopted son, although he was not related by blood, but after more than ten years, it had already become another continuation of his life, and he had been waiting for a day like today's for a long time.
Rong Ying nodded towards his adoptive father, the expression on his face was a little distorted, he had been waiting for this moment for a long time.
When he was a child, Rong Ying hated others pointing at him behind his back, "Look, this is the son of a eunuch..."
For this matter, he constantly fights with people, he has to learn to be vicious since he was a child, and his adoptive father told him that only when he is evil, he will not be bullied, and those wicked people actually have fear in their hearts. He doesn't believe in any affection, righteousness and shame, it's all deception in books, only power is real.
Rong Ying remembered the conversation between his adoptive father and him last night, silently clenched his fists, and thought, "I must enter the Qianran Underground Palace." ”
Of course, He Nuo didn't know what the eunuch father and son were thinking, but he didn't know what path they were, and he hadn't rashly attacked, but he felt that Rong Ying's eyes were a little different from before.
But He Nuo aimed at Mu Yanxi with his spare eyes, remembering Rongying's indifference to her that day, a burst of anger came up in his heart, urging the "Soul Tyrant Sword Technique" to attack.
Rong Ying held two big axes in his hands, and he did not suffer any loss in weight, and he planned in his heart, preparing to cut horizontally with his left axe to block He Nuo's attack, and the right axe to attack.
During this time, he had been trained in retreat by several masters of the Flying Eagle Guard, and he had mastered a set of seven-star moon-gazing axes, so he was very confident.
But what he didn't expect was that as soon as his left axe came into contact with He Nuo's long knife, he felt very difficult, and a burst of soreness spread to his whole body along the tiger's mouth, and his right hand couldn't exert his strength for a while, so he hurriedly jumped a few times to avoid He Nuo's attack.
But He Nuo seized the opportunity at this time, did not relax at all, and started a wave of serial attacks.
Rong Ying retreated step by step, cold sweat broke out on his back, he obviously had a lot of exquisite knife techniques that had not been used, and at this moment, his whole body seemed to be restrained, and he couldn't use anything, and he felt a strange feeling in his heart, "What kind of knife technique is this?" ”
The young men on the main pedestal didn't see anything, but the left and right sides of the empire met their eyes, and confirmed their judgment from the other party's gaze.
Wei Zhengxun thought to himself, "What is the origin of this kid?" ”
Mu Baichuan had more clues that he hadn't solved, and muttered in his heart, "Could it be that there are other forces secretly helping Nuo'er?" His face remained calm.
At this moment, his son had the upper hand, but He Jinyang could not see the slightest joy on his face, he clenched his fists tightly, his heart was fluctuating, he was looking for Lu Chuanlin, but he did not find him.
Here, under He Nuo's serial knife technique, Rong Ying has retreated to the corner of the ring, and there is no way out.
Rong Ying has always been domineering, how could he have been bullied like this? Immediately gritted his teeth and used the last style of the seven-star moon-gazing axe - the overlord splitting the mountain, which he had not yet practiced, and originally planned to pass the proficiency of the first few rounds, and finally used it as a trick to press the bottom of the box, but the reality forced him to exert his strength early.
He Nuo's Soul Suppression Sword Technique is the first style of the most rigid and fierce, and the flaw is that it consumes a lot of physical strength, and He Nuo is already a little tired under the repeated attacks, so the two collide, and with a bang, they barely fought equally.
He Nuo saw that this round of attacks could not be won, and his physical strength was consumed a lot, so he had to take a few steps back and trim slightly, and Rong Ying's move just now also consumed a lot, so he hurriedly seized this gap and gasped.
He Nuo thought in his heart, he already had a plan, and immediately took a leap, and the knife technique in his hand rotated in a wonderful arc, which was the second layer of the Soul Suppression Sword Technique-the Soul of Shadow.
For a while, a layer of swords actually appeared outside He Nuo's long knife!
Seeing this posture, Rong Ying hadn't reacted yet, but Rong Qing was shocked and shouted, "Ying'er, quickly retreat!" ”
Rong Ying subconsciously took two steps back and raised his double axes to block his chest, but He Nuo's long knife slashed and directly shook Rong Ying's axe, followed by another stormy attack.
Rong Ying didn't understand why He Nuo was so unrelenting, even if he had some contradictions with He Nuo, but on weekdays, he bullied more people, and because of the prestige of their Rong family, most people dared to be angry and didn't dare to speak, and it was really rare to be so obsessed with the person in front of him.
Rong Ying really didn't know what to do, this is Rong Qing actually stood up directly and shouted, "Ying'er, jump down!" ”
Jumping out of the ring is equivalent to admitting defeat, but at this moment, under this danger, Rong Ying can no longer think flawlessly, and immediately jumps into the ring, falls into the ring, and eats, embarrassed.
In the past, Rongying often bullied people with the power of her adoptive father, and now she has received such retribution, although many people dare not clap loudly, but they still secretly call a cool word in their hearts, after all, no matter what the reason, bullying people always makes people feel bored.
Rong Ying's face turned pale, and he glared at He Nuo fiercely, he had never been so bullied since he was a child.
And Rong Qing, with He Muhan's nod and agreement, trotted out, personally stepped forward to help Rong Ying, and whispered a few words in Rong Ying's ear, and then Rong Ying's face slowed down slightly.
Rong Ying was in the way of face, and muttered softly to He Nuo, wanting to save face, so he left.
He Nuo heard the sentence, "I'll make you feel good in the Qianran Underground Palace..."
He Nuo was puzzled in his heart, "Isn't he already defeated?" Still have a chance to go to the Qianran Dungeon? ”
However, a greater confusion made He Nuo feel scared from the bottom of his heart, he found that he seemed to be out of control just now, although he wanted to beat Rong Ying well and vent his anger for Mu Yanxi, which was what he had always thought, but he definitely didn't think about killing Rong Ying.
"Why is this", He Nuo thought in his heart, slowly walked out of the ring, the other people's games had to continue, He Nuo saw Mu Yanxi smiled at him, knowing that she thought she was fighting so hard to make her angry, He Nuo had to smile hard, his kind of body out of control words, he didn't dare to say it to Mu Yanxi.
He Nuo turned his head to look at his father, and he felt a sigh in his heart, he found that his father's face was dark, as if he had lost just now.
