Chapter 176: Heavenly Wizard!
Today is a more important day for Foljord, the annual samurai selection is about to begin, and every time at this time, the upper echelons of the empire will send examiners to conduct the samurai assessment in each established point (the bachelor's examination is one month after the samurai examination. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info)
The status of the person in charge of the assessment is not low, at least for these civilians, the status is not low, basically a regular knight, and the person in charge of the ice grassland is a knight named Sangkun, at this time he is enjoying the tribute brought by the leaders of the tribe and the fresh snow roe meat.
This kind of assessment errand they knights like very much, not only full of oil and water, but also if they can find one or two good seedlings, and they are valued by other noble lords and upgraded to knights, they will also have one more network in the future, which is the way to play in their relatively low-level circle at the top of the world.
This year's seedlings are not bad, especially the two who are now testing their swordsmanship, Sang Kun took a look at the two, these two people are very well trained, and the number of paths is not wild, it is obvious that they have spent a lot of money to learn formal swordsmanship, but one of them looks too young.....
Sang Kun glanced at the young boy, it seemed that he was thirteen or fourteen years old at most, and his body had not yet opened, but whether it was experience, footwork or the strength of the sword, he was very good, he was a very good seedling, but he was a little tender, and the opponent was relatively strong.
The young boy was naturally the Alvin who took in Xiaoting, at this time he confronted his opponent with a serious face, and unfortunately he drew a bad lot, the first two samurai places have been determined, and he is now earning the last, but this opponent is the strongest one in the whole game.
The other party has received formal swordsmanship training since he was a child, and the other party has a great advantage in age and physique, this battle is very difficult to fight, after he began to take advantage of a little advantage, the other party is very experienced and takes a defensive position, slowly consuming his physical strength, the other party can see that there is a big gap between himself and him in terms of physical fitness.
"This kid is good..... Sang Kun said to the patriarch on the side: "It's a good seedling, if you are lucky next year, you should be able to enter the ranks of the samurai." The implication is that this year is pretty much the same.
"Yes..... the tribal patriarch on the side smiled: "Bringing this baby over this year is to let him see it for a long time." Alwin's father on the side was also smoking a dry cigarette with a smile on his face, and he was quite satisfied with his son's performance.
There are a total of five tribes who came to participate in this range point trial this time, but Lord Sangkun only has three places, and the main force of his clan just now has already won a place, and it is no longer a loss, as for letting Alvin win the second place, although he had this idea, but in fact, his expectations at the beginning were not great, this kid has good qualifications, and he has a great future, and he can do it later if he doesn't work this time.
The tribal patriarch in black bear skin on the other side grinned, and it seemed that they were going to take the spot.
But Alvin in the field didn't think so, he glanced at Xiao Ting, who was sitting on the snow outside a little listless, with a hint of determination in his eyes, he couldn't wait a year, now many people in the tribe have begun to complain about Xiao Ting, and his father also severely reprimanded him for not being able to take his own meat to Xiao Ting, if he can't be selected this year, Xiao Ting is likely to be expelled..... At least he will be cold and starving, which is what he does not want to see, he must take this place!
"Hey, hey....." The young man on the other side was a little speechless when he saw Alwin's expression: "Little brother, don't be so enthusiastic, you can't win, continue to work hard next year." ”
"I'm sorry......" Alvin gasped, obviously out of rhythm in his breathing, but still enthusiastic: "I can't wait for next year, I have to win now!" ”
"Oooh!" Everyone around them began to applaud.
Alwin's father frowned, of course he knew why he was fighting so hard, this kid, for a girl, dared to talk to himself at home, and he had a posture of turning his face, he was really a white-eyed wolf who couldn't be raised, and then he turned his head to look at Xiaoting, but when he saw the other party's lazy expression, he said secretly: "This is also a child without conscience." ”
It's a good line for the second second...... Xiaoting yawned heartlessly, but in her current situation, she really can't let him lose, or she has nothing to eat, her body has not recovered, and she still needs the other party to continue to support her.....
Then when she looked at Alwin's opponent, the black pupils in her eyes suddenly began to dilate faintly, and a little complicated shading faintly appeared......
Sang Kun looked at this scene with a smile, it's a good thing that the young man is hot, but this world is so cruel, the truth will not change most of the time because of your will, after all, this is not a novel told by those bards......
But the next moment he was stunned, the young man opposite Alvin suddenly froze there, as if he was frightened by something, Alvin naturally did not give up such a good opportunity when he saw this, and directly hit the weak point of the opponent's sword body, and the force directly let the opponent's long sword get out of his hand, and then Alwin's own long sword was on the opponent's neck, and said excitedly: "You lost ....."
The young man on the other side of the "....." didn't react, including the people around him, he didn't react, this turning point is too fake!
What's the situation? Mistaken? Sang Kun frowned, but then announced the result: the competition, Alvin wins!
He didn't hesitate when he announced, the competition can't be faked, justice is the morality that these knights must adhere to, at least on the table, from the perspective of strength, it is obvious that Alwin's opponent is stronger, but sometimes the competition, luck also accounts for a part, there is a good saying, luck is also part of the strength!
The tribes on Elwin's side were stunned for a moment, and then they all began to cheer in ecstasy, and it had not happened for decades since they had obtained two samurai spots in a year, especially a small tribe like theirs.
"Ruth! What's the matter with you? "Compared to Alwin's side, the tribe on the other side is gloomy, and when they were obviously going to win, they actually lost by mistake like this? You're kidding us, aren't you?
The young man named Ruth also looked annoyed, but a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes, he clearly remembered that there was a sudden chill behind him during the battle just now, it felt like he was being targeted by something very terrifying, but he looked in that direction now, but he only saw a little fat girl sitting on the snow and sleepy, and the doubts in his eyes were even worse, was it really a hallucination?
"Father, I did it!" Alvin excitedly.
The usually stern father finally smiled at this time, nodded and hugged him: "Congratulations, my son!" ”
The tribe was even more in a revelry, and the author of all this sat on the snow and seemed to be tired and asleep, with obvious bubbles on his nose.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
In the Ross Imperial City, after Guo Lang and Carter met each other, Mina found an excuse to leave, which made Guo Lang a little surprised, when did this woman become so sensible? Then he noticed the degree of respect that Mina had for His Royal Highness Carter when she retired, which made Guo Lang squint slightly, it seems that this Highness has a very high status, and the usually proud Mina has no temper at all!
In the inner hall, after Mina left, Carter personally burned a pot of flower tea for Guo Lang, it was not very possible to make tea for people with the dignity of the princess, such as Mina, who had never burned for Guo Lang, Guo Lang nodded secretly when he saw this, this woman did not say anything else, sincerity was very in place, first came to visit in person, and then personally made tea for himself, this kind of posture is probably rare in the nobles of this plane.
His Royal Highness was polite, others gave face Guo Lang naturally would not serve the shelf, when the other party handed the tea, Guo Lang hurriedly stood up and took the teacup with both hands to show respect.
Guo Lang took a sip slowly, slightly closed his eyes and enjoyed, tea art is a thing with seven points of posture and three points of taste, in fact, generally speaking, the taste of tea art and not with tea art is sometimes really different, but the average aristocrat only knows some superficial skills, the real tea master needs to be tempered for many years, but Guo Lang's eyes lit up after drinking the flower tea handed by the other party, in terms of taste, this highness's tea art is at least close to the master level!
"Your Highness, good tea art!" Guo Lang praised.
"Sir is overrated." Carter smiled slightly, his expression was very natural, this kind of conversation tone made Guo Lang very comfortable, the other party was not pretentious, and the language was also very concise, but the tone was very well grasped, so that people would not feel that she was slacking.
This kind of person is a master negotiator, Guo Lang secretly judged.
"Your Highness has come to look for me, but is there something wrong?" After drinking tea, Guo Lang didn't ink, and went straight to the point.
This refreshing style made Carter bow slightly, although she is good at negotiating, but she actually doesn't like that kind of person who beats around the bush, and a smile appeared on her slightly heroic face: "I heard that Mr. once guarded my imperial sister with a thousand, this palace admired it, and came to visit." ”
This sycophant.... It's not light, it's not light, especially when someone with the temperament of the other party says it, which makes Guo Lang secretly feel refreshed, and then coughs: "Your Highness has a good reputation." ”
Carter smiled slightly when he heard this, but he was secretly shocked in his heart, although this guy was modest, but he did not refute that fact, that is to say, most of the information was true, and he became more and more solemn when he thought of this Carter.
But there should still be temptations, so she didn't rush to start soliciting, but continued after taking a sip of tea: "Sir saw my fourth brother over there in St. Landburg? ”
Guo Lang nodded: "Well, I have dealt with it twice." ”
"Oh?" Carter's eyes lit up: "What does Mr. think of my fourth brother?" ”
Guo Lang glanced at the other party meaningfully when he heard this, and thought: "It's very sensitive, probably because I noticed that something was wrong with her fourth brother." Thinking of this, Guo Lang has a higher and higher opinion of this His Highness, his bearing and courage are good, and even his sense of smell is so sensitive, this template is simply different from the one in the house!
"What does Your Highness want to ask?" Guo Lang said with a smile.
"Sure enough!" Carter was overjoyed, he really knew!
In the past two months, Carter has been feeling uneasy in her heart since she saw the cavalry of her fourth brother, she has been practicing martial arts since she was a child, and she is also proficient in military affairs, what kind of cavalry has not been seen, but the cavalry of Canaan is not quite right, very strong, but it is a little unusually strong...... So when she heard about Guo Lang's deeds, she came to visit as soon as possible, and she wanted to know if there really was something incredible in this world!
At this point, Carter was not going to make a detour, but asked directly: "Many people rumor that my brother has a cardinal wizard under his hands, I am a little curious, has Mr. seen the other party?" ”
"Cardinal?" Guo Lang took a sip of tea and shook his head, "I haven't seen it." ”
Carter frowned slightly when he heard this, but the other party immediately said: "But I heard Alice mention it, she should have seen it, you can ask her..."
Carter was stunned for a moment, then looked at Guo Lang's gestured eyes, and then actually saw a little girl about six or seven years old sitting next to him, looking at himself quietly, this distance ...... It's almost all on her face.
This situation made Carter's pupils shrink suddenly, she has practiced martial arts since she was a child, and she is very talented, if you really want to talk about martial arts, Carter can not humble herself and say, almost no knight in the imperial city can walk under her hands Twenty he, most of the people who practice martial arts are extremely nervous, so in the face of some assassinations, Carter can always react at the first time.
But she has never encountered this situation, the other party is about to stick it on your face, and she doesn't react at all!
Even so, Carter's strong mental quality forcibly suppressed her reflexes, the other party could get close to her so silently, what she wanted to do, she had already done it, Carter's dilated pupils narrowed slightly, and she exclaimed: "Little sister, good skills!" ”
Guo Lang's eyes also narrowed slightly, and he noticed that even in such a sudden and strange situation, this highness behaved calmly and surprised him very much, she didn't even spill the tea in her hand, this psychological quality!
Attention hosts! Guo Lang was thinking about it, and the smart little peach in the space bag said to Guo Lang: "This person is very talented, it is recommended to be drawn into the camp of the dark night and focus on training!" ”
"Focus on training?" Guo Lang was taken aback, the last time the other party said this was when Alice behaved in the supermarket, he asked in a daze: "What is the best method?" ”
Xiao Tao was in the space, and her expression was extremely serious: "Just like Alice, a genius in the sky!" ”
