Chapter 20: The Eve of the Competition
Wen Ji is gone, leaving Wen Shi, who is already in the state of the living dead, behind. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info Old man Sun looked at Wenshi lying on the ground, and ordered the few people who stayed to take care of them, and carried them to the side room first.
After everyone left, only the two brothers Lin Fei and Old Man Sun were left in the entire hall.
Lin Fei said softly at Wu Eyi, "You go outside and have a look, don't have ears on the wall." ”
After Wu E went out, Lin Fei asked first: "Old man Sun, tell me the truth, can you save this person?" ”
Old man Sun took a leisurely sip of tea and said indifferently: "How can it be saved, and what if it can't be saved?" ”
Lin Fei really didn't have the heart to play dumb riddles with him here, so he said directly: "Old man, let's not joke like this, this is a big matter of human life." It doesn't matter if you always entertain Na Wenji, he won't kill you, but he will come to kill me, even if you take a step back and say, my brothers can escape, but my mother can't escape. ”
"Don't worry, although he Wenji is not a hero, he will not really attack a woman, your mother is very safe. But if you want to get out, it's not easy. ”
Lin Fei said a little anxiously: "Don't play dumb riddles, what do you think in your heart, tell me, so that I also have a bottom in my heart and know how to cooperate with you." ”
"You don't have to cooperate with me, the only thing you have to do is to win the literary exam, only then can you live, and the rest are dead."
Lin Fei suddenly got up, hugged his fists and said: "Let's ask Mr. Sun to make it clear, you talk like this, I have a little bit of a distraction in my heart." ”
Old man Sun glanced at Lin Fei with disdain and said, "The young man can't hold his breath after all, so the old man will tell you about the powerful relationship." ”
"Do you know who proposed this so-called civil and military test, and what is its purpose?"
Lin Fei nodded and said, "Hall Master Zhu has revealed this matter to us, and he said that anyone who passes the civil and military test will be arranged to infiltrate other forces in Meifengling. As for who proposed this, he didn't say, but is it important? ”
Old man Sun pinched his beard, and the old god said: "Of course it's important, this person is related to your life and death." ”
As soon as he heard this, Lin Fei's whole body was shocked, and he pricked up his ears to listen.
"The person who made this proposal was the number two person in Renqing Dragon Mountain, the military advisor Songru. This person has not been in Qinglong Mountain for a long time, and this proposal is what he proposed to Long Ao. Therefore, whether this matter can be carried out smoothly is not only related to the matter itself. ”
Lin Fei suddenly said: "This matter is related to Songru's prestige in Qinglong Mountain. You must know that Songru was promoted to the number two person in Qinglong Mountain not long after entering, and he must have the support of Long Ao, so no matter what the reason, this plan must be implemented. ”
Lin Fei pondered for a while and asked, "You mean, such a dragon head will definitely take out the Escape Centipede?" ”
"On the contrary, that thing is too important to him. In a sense, it is equivalent to his life, who would be willing to give his life. ”
Although Lin Fei knew that the retreat centipede should be very precious, he didn't expect it to be so important.
As if guessing what Lin Fei was thinking, Old Man Sun said angrily: "It's useless for ordinary people to get that thing, don't think about going back from the old man." ”
Lin Fei dared to hurriedly wave his hand and said, "That thing should have been yours, how could I have to come back." ”
"Since Long Ao sees it so important, I think Wen Ji should know it, why would he agree to your proposal?"
Old man Sun said: "Wen Ji just knows that that thing is important to Long Ao, but he doesn't know how important it is. And Long Ao kept his promise, which was not only in Qinglong Mountain, but also among the many forces in the entire Meifeng Ridge, it was also famous. ”
"I see." Lin Fei walked around in place and said: "This civil and martial arts test must be held as promised, if we release the news that Wen Ji wants to escape the centipede and let us participate in the civil and military test, what will Long Ao do?" ”
Lin Fei asked himself and replied: "He only has two choices, one is not to let us win the championship, and the other is to let Wenji give up this idea." So as long as one of me and Wu E wins the championship, Long Ao will have no choice at all, he will go to Wenji. And this operation was proposed by the military advisor Songru, no matter what, he couldn't let the leader die inexplicably. ”
Old man Sun patted Lin Fei on the shoulder: "The son can be taught!" ”
Looking at the back of Old Man Sun leaving, Lin Fei scolded in his heart: "Damn, now Lao Tzu only has one way to Huashan." ”
......
Recently, the most talked about in Qinglong Mountain is this civil and military double examination, which requires that the age of the participants shall not exceed eighteen years old, so most of them are half-grown children. The women and children on the mountain are most concerned about this kind of thing, because their children are participating, and even if their own children are not participating, there are neighbors' children who are participating.
On this Qinglong Mountain, compared to the outside world, in a sense, it is even more cruel. No one knew if their children would die in one of the descents, and the women could do nothing but worry. This civil and military test is a good training, which can not only improve the vigilance of the children, but also have corresponding rewards for passing each exam. Although the reward is not too much, for families with poor materials, even if it is just for a pheasant, it can make a family with more than just meat taste for a year.
The composition of the personnel of Qinglong Mountain is mainly divided into three parts, one is the criminals who are forced by the officials to rebel against the people, the second is the people who live in the rivers and lakes and want to eat, and the third is the homeless people like Lin Fei and his mother. Moreover, the third part of the people is the majority, and many of these people go up the mountain. Some relatively young widowed women will also find a man on the mountain, so after more than ten years, there are really a lot of half-grown children on Qinglong Mountain.
On the martial arts arena, two young men were holding wooden swords, fighting with each other. Songru stood on the drum tower in the distance, looking ahead intently, her eyes focused, but she didn't seem to pay attention to the young man fighting in the martial arts arena.
Songru has been coming to Qinglong Mountain for nearly a year, although because of Long Ao's support, he can barely be regarded as the number two person on Qinglong Mountain. However, if he has not achieved an inch of success, how can he convince the public, and this civil and military trial can be regarded as a turnaround battle for him, as long as he can insert personnel into other forces, he can gradually establish his own intelligence network based on this.
The battle between the two teenagers in the martial arts arena was already white-hot, and one of them was slammed into the chest by the wooden sword, spurting out a mouthful of blood on the spot. The women who watched underground were either cheering and shouting or cheering. Unlike ordinary civilians, the women on Qinglong Mountain are psychologically prepared, and their husbands and sons may die in a certain operation. So just vomiting blood and breaking two ribs, such a thing, is not a big deal.
For the young man who was spitting blood from his mouth after being drawn by a wooden sword, breaking two ribs was not a reason for him to give up the fight. He took two steps back, took a breath, and rushed forward again with his sword.
Songru saw all this in his eyes, and he was not surprised by the fierceness of the young man, but shook his head slightly. As a literati, in fact, he doesn't look down on such bravery, in his opinion, the lupine scarf, talking and laughing between the ashes, is the ultimate wisdom. This kind of thing that you know you can't do is no different from stupidity.
Just as Songru thought, the young man, who had just broken two ribs, was knocked to the ground again, only this time he was not able to get up. The result of the game has been decided, the young man who won the game raised the wooden sword in his hand, and the women and children in the audience cheered loudly.
Songru slowly walked down the drum tower, and more than a dozen teenagers who participated in the literary examination were already playing against each other. Songru looked at the fall of some of them a little, and she really couldn't see it. However, it is not surprising that although there is a teacher in this Qinglong Mountain, he will teach some Analects and poems, but they are all simple skins. And most people are not willing to learn at all, this chess is still forced to be implemented among young people after Songru went up the mountain, in his opinion, playing chess can be a good exercise of a person's overall situation, and the analysis of their own form. It's just that judging from the current situation, his hard work has been in vain.
The civil and military examinations have already entered the second round, and the final will be held in two days. But so far, Songru has not found a teenager who looks very satisfied. The person in front of him, if he entered other forces, he didn't have to think about it, if there was no special chance, it was estimated that he would be directly with everyone, or die in one of the actions. If you want to quickly climb to a certain position in other forces, you need not only superb martial arts, but also superb wisdom, and these two things, he can't see in these young people.
The two teenagers on the side, who had already decided the winner, were watching the others fall. But they obviously didn't know what it meant to be a true gentleman who watched chess and was silent, and they actually chatted with each other. Songru stepped forward and wanted to drive the two teenagers out, but when he got closer, the conversation between the two attracted him.
"I've heard about it, that kid usually looks wilted, but he really dared to do it at a critical time, and actually smashed the nephew of the Wentang Master into a living dead with a stick."
Another teenager sneered: "That kid is probably stupid when his head was smashed last time, and he is so ignorant of life and death that even the nephew of the master of the Wen Hall dares to provoke." I heard that early this morning, he went to Suzaku Hall alone and went to apologize for his sins with his death. ”
"Anyway, that kid is a lot bolder than before. After hearing that he had arrived at the Vermilion Bird Hall, he actually persuaded the master of the Wen Hall to carry his nephew to find the medicine king Sun. ”
"Hmph, what kind of medicine king Sun, our Qinglong Mountain has good food and drink for him, but he has never rescued a person. It's just a charlatan, I think it must be that kid who is stalling for time, counting on his brother Wu E to ask Hall Master Zhu for help. Eh, many people say that Wu E's kid is the illegitimate son of Hall Master Zhu, is this true? ”
For these boring gossip, Songru is not interested in listening. But he suddenly thought that yesterday Zhu Dayan said that it was these two people who wanted to add plugs. Dogdan, this name is too earthy, but the commoners in the countryside, generally in order to have a good life, do not pay much attention to the name. It's just that Songru is a little curious about this person at this time, you must know that Wenji is not a person who is easy to fool. This kid not only dared to go to Suzaku Hall alone, but also persuaded Wen Ji that this person's courage and wisdom should be the best choice. Such a person infiltrating other forces is definitely much stronger than those who blindly brave and chew the root of their tongues.
For this "dog", Songru actually had some kind of expectation in his heart at this time, and he had a hunch that this person would be the person he was looking for.
