Chapter 39: Xiao Yu Appears
The Qinghua Daoist was running and desperately sprinkling various colors of silk into the air.
This talent is really not simple.
The uneasiness in Xiao Yu's heart grew stronger and stronger, and he knew that his guess might be true.
The ultimate goal of the virtuous is to attract people from all over the world who are interested in serving the imperial court and strengthen the military power of the Great Sui, but these competition methods seem to imply another purpose of the imperial court - to deliberately cause the struggle of various factions among the people!
Just like the primary election of the monastic part, hundreds of cultivators must be fighting for the ten pieces of silk, and some grievances will become entangled between the two sects or between the two cultivators.
Another point, Xiao Yu looked at the various exotic cultivators in the field whose clothes and appearance were very different from those of the Central Plains. In this virtuous talent, those who are willing to take refuge in the Great Sui will be treated with courtesy, and those who are unwilling to take refuge in the imperial court just want to come to the meeting and verify what they have learned from the exotic cultivators!
In this way, the ultimate goal of the virtuous is that almost all the most powerful cultivators of all sects and the reckless heroes of the people have been absorbed into the Great Sui army, and the rest is the revenge of the various sects and factions after the virtuous talents, which not only enhances the strength of their own army, but also makes the civil monastic sects unstable, and also makes the strength of the cultivators in the surrounding countries greatly reduced, this is the wishful thinking of the Great Sui!
There was still a question mark in Xiao Yu's heart, what was the purpose of Changning going to great lengths to let himself come to participate in the virtuous talent?
Is he going to defeat himself in terms of merit? Is he so sure he can pass the primary, and then fight him in the re-election?
Could it be that Changning had planned all this a long time ago?
Xiao Yu didn't dare to think about it anymore, and was a little disheartened for a while.
"Good!"
The cheers of the onlookers interrupted Xiao Yu's thoughts, it turned out that the Qinghua Daoist finally rushed out of the exit, and was lying on the ground panting, "My mother, I'm scared to death, what does it feel like for more than a hundred people to chase you behind you..."
Not long after the time passed, the first round of competition had ended, and the ten sections of red silk had already been spent in various families, and the Nanchengmen, which was fierce at the beginning, did not get a single piece, and was beaten half to death by other cultivators.
"D, E, and Si come forward!" A general stood in the arena and shouted.
Changning!
Xiao Yu saw Changning with peach blossoms on his face and a spring breeze on his face at a glance. I have to say that Changning really gave birth to a good skin, and as soon as he came on the field, he attracted the attention of most of the girls in the audience, and he was screaming towards Changning.
The next three groups quickly started the competition, but the strange thing is that although Changning temporarily lives in Daxingshan Temple, he doesn't seem to have a good relationship with the other monks of Daxingshan Temple who participated in the competition, but gets together with the other three people and doesn't know what they are talking about, completely ignoring the changes in the field.
Aren't these three people the three of Yuwen Gongzi's subordinates? Changning is still related to Yuwen Gongzi? Besides, with the speed at which those three people spoke, Changning was able to communicate with them freely?
Xiao Yu stared at Changning.
Changning led the three of them towards a large group of people. In the middle of the crowd, two monks with red silk in their hands were struggling to support themselves, but it was obvious that there was no help.
"Up!"
Changning, who was running at the front, shouted.
The three of them, Mutter, Wu, and Bei, who were running behind, shouted in unison, and the muscles on the three of them instantly bulged, and even filled their clothes to the ground.
"Come!" The three of them threw their shirts in unison, and rushed to the crowd directly behind Changning shirtless.
"Wow, what's going on with these three people?"
"It's so strong, can't you use secret arts?"
The onlookers looked at the three of them with chatter.
This is not a secret technique, Xiao Yu knew at a glance that this might be some kind of martial arts in Kunming, the hometown of the three of them.
Changning slowed down at this time and ran to the middle of the three people, Murmur, Wu, and Bei, and the three of them protected Changning in the middle shirtless.
"Hah!" The three of them shouted at the same time, and directly threw a yellow-faced man in front of them.
"Senior brother, senior brother!" A cultivator shouted in fright as he looked at the four people who were rushing straight at him.
The crowd who were scrambling for the red silk finally noticed the four of them and turned their attention to this side.
"What kind of person is this, how can he be so strong!"
The outermost monks screamed in horror and were speechless.
The four of Changning didn't give them a chance to think about it, and rushed over directly.
"Ahh "Whoosh!" "Whoosh!" One after another cultivators were still flying out by the three of them, and the other cultivators didn't even have the strength to parry.
"Three feet to the left, and then forward, quick!" Changning was sandwiched between the three of them and observed the situation, specifically looking for gaps, while the three of them, Murmur, Wu, and Bei, were responsible for dealing with cultivators from all directions. Although there are many people on the field, they will not be able to help them for a while.
This Changning really hid his strength, and those three people, Xiao Yu was shocked to see it off the field, and he fought with all four of them, but he didn't find that these people were so powerful.
Xiao Yu looked at the Changning foursome who had already snatched a piece of red silk and rushed out of the exit directly, it seemed that the purpose of the three of them, Wu, and Bei was to protect Changning through this primary election.
"The following three groups play..."
...
Xiao Yu is the first ugly group and belongs to the last three groups to play.
The cultivators who won just now didn't know where they were under the leadership of the general, so the Qinghua Daoists didn't rush over to cheer Xiao Yu up, but the Han Liyan Dance Troupe, which had been silent for a long time, was lively again.
"Xiao Yu reluctantly! Xiao Yu reluctantly! ”
Under the countless eyes, under the chanting of the Han Liyan Dance Troupe, Xiao Yu came out with a red face.
Xiao Yu is a little uneasy now, although he guessed the intention of the imperial court, but he has already participated in it and has no other way, not to mention that he still has to fight for the "Hong Fan Jiuchou" for Sheyu to send Liu Palace Master.
Xiao Yu didn't think much about it at the moment, and went on the field with a steady mind.
Thinking of the Sheyu faction, Xiao Yu felt a little strange. At the beginning of the conference, I inquired everywhere, and even from the women's country far south of the green ridge came to participate, but the Sheyu faction didn't seem to send anyone, and Xiao Yu didn't even find a disciple of the Sheyu faction after looking for a long time.
On the field, Xiao Yu tensed his nerves and looked at the many cultivators with solemn faces.
There are more than 300 people, and there are only 10 sections of red silk, how can they completely quit? I don't have the skills of Mo Rong's ministers, and if I am not careful, I will be beaten by the group.
"Whoosh" Just when Xiao Yu was thinking about countermeasures, someone was already rushing towards the long pole.
After the first few battles, the rest of the cultivators also learned to be wise, and those who were not good at the exercises waited quietly in the field to see if there was a chance to pick up a leak. The division of labor among the many divisions is clear, a few people go to compete for the red silk, and the rest are protected by the formation taught by their own divisions, although the formation cannot be used, but the power should not be underestimated.
"Oh, what is Brother Xiao doing, what are you doing?" Han Liyan was so anxious that she jumped up and down.
"Lord Shangshu, in your opinion, what about the cultivators who won this primary election?" Song Guogong He Ruobi asked with a smile.
Several high-ranking officials of the imperial court changed into civilian clothes, and stood on a bell tower not far from the square, surrounded by several subordinates.
"Yes, yes, to be able to win in such a difficult situation, not to mention the conduct, at least the exercises and mind will not be too bad. The Nanchengmen just now, the exercises are not bad, but the strategy itself is a little worse. The Ministry of Rites Shangshu Yu Wenbi replied.
Taichangqing Gao Gong stared at the arena and did not answer, Yang Xuangan, the son of Yang Su, the Duke of Chu, held the sword in his hand and trembled slightly, eager to rush into the arena and fight happily. What an impulsive young man, Song Guogong He Ruobi smiled slightly when he saw this.
"Look at this last one, I hope there will be a big one."
"yes, yes."
Several high-ranking officials stopped talking, and their attention was concentrated on the field.
"Huh." Xiao Yu moved.
Xiao Yu knew very well in his heart that he did not have the help of his master, and if he wanted to win, he could only rely on his own footwork.
Xiao Yu spotted a lewd man with red silk in his hand, and before everyone could close him, he took the skyscraper footwork, and rushed to the front through the gap at once, and the cultivators only felt that there was a flower in front of them, and a white shadow flashed over them in an instant.
The man who was besieged was the thief-eyed man who stood behind Xiao Yu outside the field before. The man was terrified when he saw Xiao Yufeng rushing over, "What are you going to do?" You have a little lady, and there are so many dowry girls, can't you let me be in the limelight? ”
Xiao Yu was speechless, where is this. Xiao Yu's footwork galloped, and he was offended by his mouth, and a punch hit the man's chest.
The fist carried the sound of the wind, the tiger was mighty, the man was shocked when he saw this, and he turned over on the ground to avoid Xiao Yu's fist and was about to run. But he had already become the focus of attention on the field, and there were cultivators everywhere who surrounded him, and there was really no place to hide.
When the man saw Xiao Yu who had rushed over and the people who were getting closer and closer, he gritted his teeth and rolled on the spot, and actually rolled into a horse trap not far away.
There are such traps everywhere in the field, but in this case, running here is equivalent to giving up the competition, those who can get in can go, but there is no guarantee that they can get out, maybe the body has not yet stood firm, and the monks who surrounded it have already surrounded it.
Xiao Yu watched the man being forced to jump into the trap pit, and did not hesitate, jumping steadily on the edge of the pit and landing safely at the bottom of the pit.
"Oh, ancestor, if you really want your own life, can't you make me feel better?" When the man saw Xiao Yu jumping down, he was so anxious that he scratched his ears and cheeks.
Xiao Yu listened to the people who were getting closer and closer, knowing that he didn't have the strength to talk nonsense with this person anymore, and at that moment, he was angry and wanted to rush over again.
"Stop, stop, don't you want to fight the small one, I don't look like a bad person, I can't give it to you? Don't hit me. Alas, I knew that I wouldn't listen to my brother, come to this meeting, No, give it to you. The man aggrievedly handed the red silk in his hand to Xiao Yu.
Xiao Yu was stunned, he didn't go to the other party so happily first, put down his fist and looked at the other party, hesitated for a moment, and didn't pick it up.
"Hey, what's the matter with you, I don't want it for you." The man was so anxious that he cried out, "Take it quickly, I don't want to be beaten." ”
Xiao Yu no longer hesitated, took the red silk, just put the red silk in hand, and wanted to get up and leave the pit. But now it was too late, and after such a moment's hesitation, there were already more than a dozen people standing on the edge of the pit.
"Boy, bring the red silk, or you know the consequences!" A strangely dressed man on the edge of the pit said proudly.
I can't get out now, and I don't know how many people are waiting for me outside.
"Boy, do you hear me, hurry up and bring it!"
"Hehe, if you have the ability, jump in and get it!" Xiao Yu knew that he didn't dare to come down.
Sure enough, although the strangely dressed person was in a hurry, he didn't dare to jump in, and he really couldn't get out when he went in, and he was still very clear about how many pounds and taels he had.
Then wait a little longer, you can't get out anyway. Xiao Yu was helpless, so he had to stand at the bottom of the pit and quickly think about countermeasures.
After a while, the pit was already full of people.
"Isn't this the real person of Shu Dao Immortal Peng? Why don't you go down and get a head start? ”
"Polite, polite, your Yunchang Pavilion is also thriving in Yichun County, why are you so humble today?"
The people on the edge of the pit have their own ghosts, you push me, I push you, no one wants to come down first, and in the end, they all stand on it and scold Xiao Yu.
"Brother Xiao, what should I do, what should I do?" Han Liyan watched Xiao Yu jump into the trap from the sidelines, anxious like an ant on a hot pot, circling in circles.
"Miss, don't worry, Xiao Gongzi is kind-hearted, and God will help him." White Frost comforted softly on the side.
"Huh?" The eyes of several high-ranking officials on the bell tower were also attracted.
What to do? What to do? Just hand it over?
Xiao Yu was unwilling.
What should I do, and I don't let you use formations and weapons. Xiao Yu couldn't come up with any good ideas after thinking about it.
"Hey, forget it, let's give it to them, we are also difficult brothers, if you can't grab it, you can't grab it, it's all fate, no one can do it."
The thief-eyed cultivator who was standing on Xiao Yu's side stayed out of the matter at this time, and opened his mouth to comfort Xiao Yu.
Xiao Yu looked at the cultivator who was chattering on the side, and suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind.
Pregnant!
Xiao Yu tried his best to maintain a normal smile on his face, and stepped in front of the man in one step.
"What are you going to do!"
The man looked at the smile on Xiao Yu's face, and his heart was worried.
