The jade pendant was broken into two pieces, one larger and one smaller.

Everyone was dumbfounded, Hu Guiyang was especially surprised, in his impression, Jin Dan was much harder than ordinary jade pendants, although it could still be crushed by heavy objects, but it would not break in a single shot.

"Haha." Hu Guiyang laughed twice, everyone's eyes turned to him, even Mei Niangzi's blind husband turned his head and listened.

"I'm sorry, I wanted to make a joke with everyone, it's a bit too much."

Guan Mutong asked in a trembling voice: "This, this is really Jindan?" ”

"It doesn't matter if it's true or not." Hu Guiyang casually put away the two jade pendants, "The important thing is that the golden pill is very safe in my hands." ”

Hu Guiyang hinted that the broken Jin Dan was fake, and several strangers were skeptical, but in the end, no one raised questions.

Mei Niangzi said, "Do you still have to compete tonight?" ”

"Of course, the strongest person will get a golden pill, a complete golden pill."

"The real Jindan?"

Hu Guiyang smiled: "The joke is just a joke, whether it is the real Jin Dan or not, you will know as soon as you breathe it." ”

Mei Niangzi smiled, turned her head and whispered a few words with her husband, and said, "I'll participate." ”

The other four looked at each other, and Guan Mutong smiled and said: "Forget about a few of us, the art is not as good as others, why bother to be embarrassed?" Let's go and announce this to Captain Hu and see if there are any other people who want to compete. ”

"Well, people who want to compete in martial arts come to me, and half an hour after dinner, they will compete in the backyard."

"Okay." A few people retreated, and Guan Mutong gently closed the door outside.

Hu Guiyang took out two jade pendants, one intact and one broken, carefully inspected, and even took it under his nose and sniffed it twice, he had practiced the fire god technique, and he could take the golden pill unconsciously, only to feel a cool breath enter the nasal cavity, and then spread all over the body, becoming warm, like soaking in a hearty hot bath in a bucket.

Hu Guiyang hurriedly put down the jade pendant, flipped the two teacups, covered them, took two steps back, and his heart was beating.

Even he had a hard time resisting the temptation of Jin Dan.

Someone knocked on the door, Hu Guiyang woke up like a dream, let out a long breath, and a smile reappeared on his face, "Come in." ”

Zhao Aqi entered the house and asked, "Senior brother wants to have a martial arts competition?" ”

"Yes."

"Didn't you say that everyone should take turns to eat? Two gold pills are enough for a while, are there two? ”

The news of the jade pendant breaking had obviously spread, and Hu Guiyang smiled: "You know that two pieces are enough, and there is no need to ask about the others." As for the competition, it is a trivial matter to give Jin Dan, the important thing is to select a strong person who can lead the alien against Li Xingtian. ”

Zhao Aqi showed a hint of a smile, "Senior brother is always so smart, I want to participate in the competition, I am definitely not the strongest, I just want to take the opportunity to see the strength of other strangers." ”

"Okay, you go and prepare, the outcome is unpredictable, I hope you are the final victor, and the cooperation with you is smoother."

"I hope so." Zhao Aqi surrendered and retired.

Next, a few more people came in one after another to express their desire to participate in the competition, and asked whether Jin Dan was true or not, and Hu Guiyang responded vaguely.

The last person to sign up was Jiang Dongxia, but after coming in, he didn't speak, and stood at the door in silence.

Hu Guiyang sat on the chair, "Do you want to confirm the authenticity of Jin Dan first?" ”

"What a coincidence, it's my turn to take Jindan today."

"There are more than 20 of you, what kind of wheel method?"

"Everyone has different symptoms, but every ten days or so there is always a period of time that is extremely difficult, everyone has figured out the pattern, today there are three people who need to take pills, I am the first - since I am the leader, there will be a little preferential treatment."

Hu Guiyang reached out and lifted a teacup, "Please." ”

Jiang Dongxia stepped forward, first thanked him, then picked up the golden pill with both hands, sent it to his nose and sniffed it gently, and under the stimulation of the fire god technique, he inhaled the essence into his body, and a look of extreme satisfaction gradually appeared on his face.

The time of taking is very short, Jiang Dongxia reluctantly put down the golden pill, and the satisfaction on his face quickly turned into loss, "You can't take too much, otherwise, your strength will increase, and your symptoms will be aggravated, and you will even die." ”

"Can the disease of 'eunuch' be aggravated?"

Jiang Dongxia's face was slightly gloomy, and he quickly returned to normal, "Captain Hu hasn't found a cure yet, why bother knowing these details?" One more thing, I'm going to participate in a joust, and to tell you the truth, the winner has to be me. ”

"Are you so sure?"

"I've seen the skills of these people, they are endowed with divine power, and they only improve their internal strength, and use it as brute force, and almost no one has learned exquisite moves."

"Have you studied?"

"The 'Six-clawed Golden Dragon' is not called in vain, I am not here to show off, but to remind Captain Hu: Among all the strangers here, I am the only one who is a real martial artist, and even if the others soar to immortality one day, they will not be able to get rid of their vulgar atmosphere."

"Understood, when you win, let's have a good talk." Hu Guiyang said with a smile.

Jiang Dongxia glanced at the Jin Dan on the table, "One Jin Dan can keep me worry-free for ten years, but I will still stay and fight side by side with Captain Hu." ”

Two more strangers came in to take the golden pill one after another, making it clear that they didn't want to participate in the competition, their requirements were very low, they just wanted to live, but in the moment after absorbing the pill, they gave birth to more desires, staring at the jade pendant, and seemed to change their minds at any time and asked to participate in the competition.

In the end, the two shook their heads and left, not confident of winning.

Among the twenty-three strangers, a total of ten people decided to take the pill, and after dinner, everyone gathered in the courtyard at the back, even if they did not compete, they had to watch the excitement.

Ordinary people in the front yard don't come over, no matter how lively it is, they don't want to see it, Wei Ying originally lived in the second courtyard, and at this time she also moved to the front yard, preferring to squeeze together with the janitor than get too close to the stranger.

Hu Guiyang was the last to come out of the bedroom and smiled at everyone: "The full moon is bright, just the right competition, the rules are very simple, two by two, the loser withdraws, the winner rests, and waits for the next round of the competition." Who comes first? ”

Xiao Kill Xiong was the first to enter and shouted: "Let's compete, we don't need to order the set up to the end, right?" ”

"No, but if the other party admits defeat, the winner must stop immediately, otherwise it will be considered defeat."

"I'll try to control it. Who's going to compete with me? Xiao Kill Xiong took off a bearskin jacket, revealing half of his strong muscles, like a golden-bodied heavenly general who came out of the temple.

A strong man came out to fight, smaller than Xiao Kill Xiong, but more well-proportioned, and looked like a soldier in the past.

"No weapons are allowed, no weapons are allowed, only fists and feet." Hu Guiyang hurriedly added.

Xiao Kill Bear is big, and he can't find a weapon to take advantage of, this rule is just what he wants, roar, pounce and fight.

As Jiang Dongxia expected, Xiao Killing Xiong used to be a copycat, and the opponent was an ordinary officer and soldier who could fight, but he had never learned exquisite boxing techniques, just blindly competing with brute force, fists and fists cracked stones, and did not back down from each other.

Hu Guiyang looked at it for a while and felt bored, he was the only one in the courtyard who was not an alien, so he didn't dare to get too close, hiding behind the audience, and walking slowly around the courtyard.

Zhao Aqi turned his head and whispered: "This is called a fight, not a competition." ”

Hu Guiyang smiled, "Punching the master to death, such a 'fight' has no opponent in the martial arts." ”

Zhao Aqi also smiled, "Fortunately, there are also martial arts masters among the strangers." ”

Zhao Aqi was only a third- or fourth-rate person in the martial arts in the past, and he had never learned subtle tricks, but at this time, he regarded himself as a master, and he looked down on other strangers, and he was only a little jealous of Jiang Dongxia.

The fight in the middle of the courtyard was fierce, Hu Guiyang continued to detour, came to the back of Guan Mutong, the old man, and whispered: "Dare to go to Li Xingtian's appointment, don't you dare to participate in the competition?" ”

Guan Mutong turned around and said with a smile: "Just because I went to the appointment, I was scared." Seeing the playing style of these two again, I have to admit that the art is not as good as others. ”

Hu Guiyang nodded and walked forward again.

Luo's umbrella did not leave his hand, standing under the porch, and he didn't seem to be very interested in Biwu.

"I thought you'd attend." Hu Guiyang approached and said.

"I'm only here to heal, not to take the pill." Roche said flatly.

"Miss Yang is still with you, right?"

"Hmm." Roche is becoming more and more cold.

Hu Guiyang walked around to a corner of the courtyard, Jiang Dongxia, who was standing here, was most interested in martial arts, and he looked at it carefully, and whispered: "Xiao can win by killing bears, not by tricks, but by ruthlessness." ”

"You're not afraid of being ruthless?"

"If the ruthlessness is invincible, why should the sect masters of the various sects create all kinds of rules? The brave wins when they meet on the narrow road, and the brave wins when they meet. ”

"Well said." Hu Guiyang then went around.

He walked slowly, detoured more than half a circle, and the competition on the field ended, still as Jiang Dongxia expected, Xiao Kill Xiong won, the opponent took the initiative to admit defeat and retreat to the edge, Xiao Kill Xiong raised his fist and yelled a few times, "Lao Tzu doesn't need to rest, whoever wants to win Dan, let the horse come." ”

No one entered, and when he yelled a few more times, Guan Mutong said as the leader: "Since Captain Hu has set the rules, he will act according to the rules, please take a break and let the next pair compete." ”

Xiao Killing Xiong retreated hatefully, as if he had a deep hatred with the people in the courtyard.

There are two more people on the field, their strength is still strong, their fists and feet are vigorous, ordinary people will never dare to approach half a step, but the moves are more crude and simple than Xiao Killing Bear, and they are not even more attractive.

Hu Guiyang came behind the young Xiao Tan, "Don't you want Jin Dan?" ”

Xiao Tan turned around in surprise, "I can't beat these people, and I just can't remember the past, it's not a big problem—I guess I don't have any experiences worth mentioning in the past." ”

"That's right, you're the least ill in comparison."

"I'm lucky." Xiao Tan said with a smile.

Hu Guiyang walked around and stood at the door of the bedroom to watch the competition.

Lin Layer Ran walked over by himself and whispered: "The jade pendant fracture has attracted a lot of suspicion, and after the three of them took the golden pill, everyone has settled down a lot. ”

At the end of the competition on the field, Mrs. Mei came on the field, still holding her husband with a bamboo pole and letting him stand behind her.

A thin man plays the game, and he doesn't understand the rules of the rivers and lakes, nods his head, and hits when he shoots.

Hu Guiyang smiled and said, "What do you want to say?" ”

"The more strangers gathered here, the better, but the fish and dragons are mixed, and it is inevitable that there will be trouble, Captain Hu should be careful, don't let Jin Dan be dropped."

Hu Guiyang laughed twice, looking disapproving, in fact, he had long been convinced that there was something wrong with the broken Jin Dan, and the person who dropped the bag was among the few people he had just asked.
