Chapter 647: The First Competition
Yuan Shang agreed to Wu Guotai's heads-up appointment, and immediately felt very puzzled after returning to the camp, he always felt that Wu Guotai's meeting and conversation with him was not a coincidence, and there was always some tentative meaning in the vaguely, but what the specific intention was, Yuan Shang did not think clearly.
After all, it was the first time for him and Wu Guotai to meet, and they had never had any communication before, and they may have heard of each other in the name, but Yuan Shang felt that at most, he had only heard about it, and there would be no more opportunities to think at all.
Although things were quite strange, Yuan Shang's urgent task was to lead a group of subordinates to prepare for the martial arts competition.
In the blink of an eye, the appointed time of a few days has passed, and the first competition of Soochow recruiting relatives has officially begun.
On the day of the competition, all the applicants were ready to go and came to the competition arena with great momentum to prepare for the first test.
The tribute questions of all the participating teams have been submitted to Soochow, and the next step should be to choose the topic personally by Sun Shangxiang, the lord of Soochow County, and issue it to everyone.
During the martial arts arena, the players of each family stood in line according to the barriers. Everyone was dressed in strong suits, sharpening their knives, gearing up, waiting for the first martial arts test. Everyone wants to get off to a good start in the first game.
After a while, the team led by Sun Quan, Sun Shangxiang, Wu Guotai and others finally appeared in everyone's eyes and slowly climbed the high platform.
Everyone's eyes suddenly became bright, staring at several important people on the stage, holding their breath, waiting for today's topic to be issued.
But the strange thing is that on a good day, Sun Quan and Sun Shangxiang's faces don't seem to be very good-looking, Sun Shangxiang pouted, tilted his head, and didn't look at Sun Quan, as if he was sulking, and Sun Quan was also bruised. It seems that there is an evil fire in the chest, and I can't send it out if I want to, but I want to swallow it but I am not very willing.
Wu Guotai smiled happily, and looked at the contestants in the martial arts arena kindly, as if she wanted to pick out the son-in-law who belonged to her and praise it.
After a few people stood still, Sun Quan seemed too lazy to speak, and casually asked Lu Su beside him to read it out for him, but seeing Lu Su, he also smiled helplessly and stepped forward on the stage. He raised his voice and said: "All the heroes who took the exam, according to the deliberations of Guotai, Wuhou, and the county lord in the past few days, the topics of the competition have been completely determined, and the topics are all drawn from the potential questions of your tribute, today is the first one, and the item compared is ......"
When he said this, everyone held their breath, looked at Lu Su on the stage motionlessly, and stared at his lips tightly. Waiting for his scares.
"The topic of today's competition is...... Three Kingdoms Killing. ā
As soon as the words fell, everyone in the audience was crooked, and they almost didn't fall into. looked at Sun Quan and the others on the stage in amazement.
Three Kingdoms Killing? ā¦ā¦ That was born from the north a few years ago, and gradually spread to all states and counties, and there are many ways to play, and it has been popular for several years. But you can't get into the elegant bamboo leaf card game?
What kind of bullshit project is this?
Obviously, Sun Quan is extremely disgusted by this stupid project. When Lu Su said the name of the competition, Sun Quan didn't even glance at everyone in the audience, but just looked up at the sky and snorted heavily in his nose.
For a while, everyone in the audience was talking.
"Three Kingdoms Kill? Is that the Bamboo Leaf card game? ā
"That thing can be entertained after drinking, but it can be used as a test item, isn't it a bit too child's play?"
"That's it! Shouldn't the heads of Soochow be hidden by the door? ā
"It is said that Dongwu is so handsome, it's just a fart! Pick and choose to pick such a thing? ā
āā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā
A group of people were talking, but Yuan Shang and Sima Yi looked at each other and smiled.
Of course, this kind of topic was submitted by the Hebei side, and since they have submitted it, they must have a certain degree of confidence in being selected.
First of all, don't look at this project although ridiculous, but it is the most suitable project for the current situation, the reason is nothing more than that there are too many contestants, as many as a few hundred, if it is according to the traditional military strategy, martial arts, cultural fighting skills, the year of the monkey can be over?
But the Three Kingdoms Kill is different, simple and fast, as long as the rules are set properly, Yuan Shang dares to guarantee, don't look at the number of people who try to participate, it only takes one day, and at least eighty percent can be brushed.
Of course, this must also include many players from Hebei, but after all, this is a game launched by Yuan Shang and first tried in Hebei, although there is a certain element of luck, but according to experience, the party with the largest number of participants in the end must be Hebei.
Behind Yuan Shang, Deng Chang was eager to try, and said with an excited face: "Three Kingdoms Kill!" Three Kingdoms Kill! Great, this is not in the hands of the old man! ā
Deng Chang is the first batch of veteran players in the Three Kingdoms Killing, at the beginning, he almost lost Yuan Shang's pants, but because of this, this old man is very experienced, if he is not lucky, it is true that he will win a hundred battles.
Lu Su waited for the voices below to be lowered before continuing: "All the people draw lots, in a group of five, each of them will play, there is a referee assigned by Dongwu next to it, a total of ten sentences, the person who wins the most games among the five people is the winner, and can advance to the next game, and the remaining four people are all defeated." ā
When these words came out, he gave everyone another slap in the face, and he chose one of the five, and he had to brush off so many people in the first game, so grim and severe!
Yuan Shang is calm and relaxed, no matter how he plays in his heart, this kind of game will definitely not suffer from them in Hebei.
Looking at the camp of the Jingzhou Xichuan delegation, Yuan Shang couldn't help but be stunned.
But seeing Zhuge Liang, who was sitting on a four-wheeled bicycle, was also shaking the feather fan, with a smile on his face, there was no surprise at all, obviously such a competition seemed to be as he expected.
As if sensing that Yuan Shang was looking at him, Zhuge Liang immediately turned his head and nodded at Yuan Shang with a slight smile.
The way of the competition is to draw lots and group them, in the order of A, B, C, D, ę, hex, Geng, Xinren, etc., followed by Zi Chouyin, Mao Chen, etc......
Yuan Shang was drawn by himself, and it was Xin Er.
He came to the table of the Xin group and sat cross-legged with his eyes slightly closed, waiting for the other four opponents to come.
After everyone had drawn lots, Yuan Shang's four opponents also followed one by one to the side of the table.
The other four people are Sun Shihong next to the Jiaozhou Shijia, Buxie, the son of Yingjie Buqi of Eastern Wu, and King Mulu, the cave master of Nanban Ba Na Cave.
The last one was quite eye-catching to Yuan Shang.
This person is actually Ma Yan!
Ma Tan was young, his face was white and beardless, his face was smart and smart, and when he saw Yuan Shang, he was also very good, showing a very high level of plainness, and saluted Yuan Shang officially: "Ma Tan has seen General Sima." ā
For the initiator of the famous Lost Street Pavilion in later generations, Yuan Shang naturally paid a little more attention, he saw that although Ma Tan was humble and had a very good family education, there seemed to be a sense of arrogance in his eyebrows, quite domineering, and faintly implying a little perverse.
The so-called stretching out his hand and not hitting the smiling person, Yuan Shang was quite polite to this young man, and said with a smile: "Although I am an official in the court, this competition to recruit relatives is to eliminate the suspicion of identity, Mr. Ma does not have to be so polite." ā
Ma Jian smiled slightly, shook his head and said: "Otherwise, otherwise, since the general is the general of the imperial court, it is natural that no matter what the circumstances, whether it is identity and momentum, it is far above my generation, Ma Jian does not dare to be rude, not to mention that the general is powerful all over the world, he is a peerless figure of the first class, even if there is no identity barrier, Ma Jian does not dare to despise it." ā
He said it politely, but Yuan Shang knew very well what he was thinking, on the card of the Three Kingdoms Killing, their identities were hidden, and sometimes, the face of human affection became the most important, Ma Jian said this, nothing more than wanting to put himself in the public target, so that everyone could faintly suppress himself in the secret alliance.
Sure enough, after listening to Ma Yan's words, the eyes of several people around him were indeed a little different, especially the King of Mulu, he was thicker with Meng Shu, and he was originally half an ally of the Xishu side, and at this moment, he looked at his eyes, like an enemy, and before the game started, he seemed to have determined his own attack target.
Yuan Shang despised King Mulu in his heart, and he fell in love with Ma Tan's way without a trace, it was simply a pig's brain!
The Dongwu judge on the side looked at Ma Jian and asked lightly, "Are you all done polite?" ā
Ma Jian hurriedly nodded and said, "It's over, it's over." ā
The judge of Dongwu nodded and said, "Since this is the case, then I will deal the cards." ā
Since the competition is five people, it is naturally the most conventional form of one "lord", one "loyal minister", two "anti-thieves", and one "traitor".
Yuan Shang was generally lucky in the first game, and drew a "traitor", and in the case of the character, he chose the more conservative "Lu Meng":.
And the lord of this sentence is the King of Mulu, this guy is far away from Yuan Shang, and the first sentence is equipped with a "Qinglong Yanyue Knife", and he came up and directly hit Yuan Shang with a slash.
"Kill!"
Yuan Shang was stunned when he saw this, frowned and said, "You are sick, do you know what I am?" Kill me! ā
King Mulu rolled his eyes and said, "I am the lord, I will kill whoever I like!" Seeing that you are like a thief, I will kill you! ā
Yuan Shang couldn't help but be furious: "Kill your sister!" Is there anyone who plays like that? Get your 'kill' back for me! ā
King Mulu waved his head and said, "No!" I'll kill you! ā
Yuan Shang took a deep breath, turned his head and asked the judge of Dongwu: "Referee, he doesn't know how to play, it's purely a spoiler, I'll mention yƬ and let him get out!" ā
The referee shook his head and said, "Mention yƬ dismissed, the owner of Mulu Cave is also here to recruit relatives, and he has the right to participate in the game, and others cannot deprive him." ā
Yuan Shang heard this: "I am against it! ā
"What are you against?"
Yuan Shang said: "I object to you not accepting my proposal!" ā
"Opposition is invalid, if you want to play, you can play, if you don't play, you will get out."
Yuan Shang took a deep breath when he heard this, turned his head and looked at the King of Mulu who was gloating, as well as Ma Jian who was waiting for him to be on the side, and the other two players who wanted to take advantage of the loophole, and his heart was suffocated.
It seems that this game is not as smooth as I thought.
