Chapter Seventy-Two: The Election of the Patriarch

Since the mercy left, Anxin has become more melancholy, he has been thinking: maybe one day his heart suddenly stopped beating, if he is a common person, there is no need to worry, the key is now that he is the head of a village in Lingxin Village, is the supreme ruler of power, once he suddenly dies, the plotters will inevitably launch a struggle for power, like the previous evil heart to fight for power and profit and trigger a war of aggression, thus putting the people in dire straits, at that time, All the beautiful and happy homes will be destroyed in one fell swoop, and the creator of all this is himself, will it not become infamous for the ages.

This question has been bothering him and making it difficult for him to sleep. As a result, his emotions fluctuated greatly, which was not conducive to his health, so that his old illness recurred, and his body deteriorated. Finally, when he woke up one morning, Anxin had an ominous premonition that the deadline was approaching, so he suddenly issued an announcement to all the people on a whim to elect the next patriarch in advance. The reason why this is done is because Anxin does not want the country that he has worked so hard to build, and the stable and harmonious Lingxin Village built by himself will be destroyed in the hands of a person who cannot achieve great things.

I saw that the announcement was written like this: All adult people with lofty ideals in Lingxin Village can participate in the patriarchal election. Election events include: jousting, chess, archery. The election rules are as follows: all candidates will first play a lottery competition, two contestants will be a group, and the winner will be drawn again until the last two remainers. They became candidates for the patriarch, and on the second day of the tournament they would compete in three events: martial arts, chess, and archery, and the winner of the three games would become the new patriarch.

As soon as the announcement came out, everyone seemed excited, and they rushed to tell each other, this is a good opportunity once in a thousand years, and in front of the opportunity, everyone has equal status, and anyone has the potential to become the successor of the patriarch, so the young and strong young men in Lingxin Village are all active, and the Lingxin Village, which is immersed in peace, is also lively, and the streets and alleys are all talking about the election of the patriarch, and the decision of the patriarch of Anxin has applauded. Young and ambitious hearts can be described as gearing up and eager to try.

After receiving the letter of dissipation, ambition, confidence, ruthlessness, etc., they even danced when they heard the chicken, stepped up their short-term training, and studied hard, and they all hoped that they could come out on top among the patriarchs, and from then on they would reach the princes.

In this way, the days passed day by day, and finally came to the day of the contest. After all the candidates were also in place, the Anxin patriarch began to speak: "To be able to serve as the patriarch of Lingxin Village, you must have both super martial arts, excellent chess skills, and super accurate archery skills. In this way, we can lead the people of Lingxin Village to live a happy and stable life. The people in the audience applauded Patriarch Anxin's wonderful speech. Let me explain why the patriarch must have super martial arts. Everyone knows that martial arts can strengthen the body, but more importantly, martial arts can resist foreign enemies, once a foreign enemy invades us, the patriarch is to bear the brunt of the rush to the front, leading the people to beat the enemy away. I won't say much else, but now I announce that the game is officially open. Immediately after the sound of a gong, the candidates on the field drew lots, and then played in pairs under the guidance of the referee.

In the beginning, ambition and ambition were easily passed. Gradually, the opponent became a little tougher, but still couldn't stop the ambition and ambition from making the cut. Soon, it was time for the semi-finals of the four-in-two, ruthless draw against ambition, and confidence draw against ambition.

The game began after a short break, Ruthless is a difficult guy to deal with, Ambition can be described as a hard fight, gradually, Ruthless is a little defeated, but he is willing to admit defeat, pull out the long tassel gun on the knife holder, and poke straight towards Ambition, Ambition flashes flexibly, Ruthless shakes his hand, Ambition quickly rolls sideways, Ruthless takes up the guy and approaches aggressively, unstoppable, Ambition has to pull out the wooden stick on the knife holder to resist. Ruthless careless, the red tassel gun in his hand almost let the ambition to fly, ambition seized the opportunity, anti-guest-oriented, with a wooden stick to take a strong attack, ruthless retreat, directly retreated to the ring, not to, ruthless to manipulate the red tassel gun flying straight over, ambition timely response, sideways with a wooden stick block, ruthless lost momentum, ambition seized the opportunity to sweep the stick, ruthless heart move, even a few steps back, ruthless and angry, both hands clenched the red tassel gun viciously mad retaliation, but the pace has been chaotic, ambition calmly responded, Catching his mistake and hitting him with a wooden stick to the hand holding the gun was a blow, and the ruthless hand discarded the weapon, and the ambition took advantage of the situation to give him another blow and beat him to the bottom of the stage. The referee declared the ambition the winner.

Then there is the showdown between ambition and faith. After a few rounds of heart-to-heart fighting, there was no difference between victory and defeat. At this time, confidence rose into the air, kicked several times in the air, and the ambition retreated again and again to resist with his hands. Suddenly, he grabbed Confidence's feet with his hands, flipped hard, Confidence was unexpected, flipped in the air and landed, Confidence took several steps to keep his body balanced, unfortunately, he was facing away from Ambition, and before he could stand firm and react, Ambition had already flown up and kicked him under the ring. The referee declared ambition the winner.

In this way, the candidates for the patriarch were born: they were ambition and ambition. In fact, this has long been expected by everyone, and it is also what everyone is looking forward to. At this time, the happiest person is the Patriarch of Anxin, his hard work has finally paid off, no matter who wins in the end, he can rest assured that he can hand over the Zhengxin Sword and the crown, because they are both suitable leaders who can take over Lingxin Village in Anxin's mind.
