Chapter Twenty-Five: The Contest Begins (Christmas, Plus 2)
Mo Xiaozhe took Jiang Yingxue and pulled the man in black in, and when he entered the front yard of the Chen family, he saw a coffin in the front hall, Mo Xiaozhe knew that the man in black must have done something, or killed someone. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
The people of the Chen family all looked at Mo Xiaozhe suspiciously, and then looked at Jiang Yingxue behind Mo Xiaozhe, everyone didn't know what was going on, they didn't know what Mo Xiaozhe was doing, but someone knew, but he could only pretend not to know.
Mo Xiaozhe said: "I found this person sneakily into your yard outside your house, and after a stick of incense, he turned it out again, I think he must have done something, or did something he shouldn't have done."
Mo Xiaozhe pulled the man in black over, tore off his face towel, and an old face appeared in front of everyone, everyone in the Chen family knew this person, this was a vegetable farmer who often sent vegetables to the Chen family.
The people of the Chen family were very strange, how could a food delivery person come to the Chen family in the middle of the night, so they asked, "Old Liu, why are you dressed like this?" Why did you come to Chen's house in the middle of the night? ā
The old Liu Tou trembled and didn't answer, Mo Xiaozhe shouted: "So far, do you still want to hide it?" ā
Old Liu Tou's eyes looked at Chen Shili intentionally or unintentionally, Mo Xiaozhe found this, but he didn't break it.
Mo Xiaozhe said: "Who are you doing the funeral for? ā
Chen Shiming said: "It's my grandmother, she is 89 years old this year, I thought I could finish the New Year, but I thought that I would just leave."
Mo Xiaozhe said: "How did you die? Don't you suspect that there is a trick or a conspiracy in this? ā
Before Chen Shiming could speak, Chen Shili hurriedly said: "My grandmother's health is not good, don't talk nonsense here, someone will kick them out for me."
Mo Xiaozhe was even more sure that there must be something wrong with this Chen Shili.
Here's the thing, Chen Shili got Jin Guangding, and it stands to reason that he should be the head of the Chen family, but Mrs. Chen suddenly remembered her eldest grandson Chen Shizhong, so the old lady asked her to find Chen Shizhong, and she wanted to leave the position of head of the family to Chen Shizhong.
Chen Shili was afraid that if the old lady really found Chen Shizhong, his position as the head of the family would not be guaranteed, because everyone in the Chen family knew that Chen Shizhong was the most valued in their generation.
Let's talk about Li Hu's side,
After Li Hu said Jinzhou, he rested in the room provided by the Martial Arts Academy, he was ready to show his combat effectiveness this time, and then he could find a position in the army.
Li Hu didn't want to go out, but he had heard a lot about the prosperity of Jinzhou, so Li Hu couldn't help but go out to have a look.
As soon as he went out, he saw Liu Gang from the mercenary union, and Liu Gang told Li Hu that Mo Xiaozhe was investigating the cause of death of those children.
Li Hu was stunned for a moment, how could he have thought that those children died innocently like this, and he also liked those children very much, so Li Hu decided to help Mo Xiaozhe, although the contradiction between him and Mo Xiaozhe had not been resolved, but he felt that the children should be helped.
Through Liu Gang's prompt, Li Hu also found Boss Zhang, and also knew that Mo Xiaozhe had gone to the Chen family in Xuanzhou.
Li Hu returned to the martial arts academy and asked his master for leave, and the master told him: "The martial arts competition will start in two days, and it is very likely that you will not be able to get out of Xuanzhou at this time."
Li Hu asked his master to help him think of a way, and in the end, his master decided to help Li Hu arrange the time of the battle as much as possible in the second half of the battle.
Li Hu hurried all the way to Xuanzhou, when he first arrived in Xuanzhou, the sky was just dawning, Li Hu placed the horse, and rushed to Chen's house.
But when Li Hu arrived at Chen's house, he found that the Chen family was not there, the gate was open, the courtyard was in a mess, and there was a coffin on the hall.
Last night, Mo Xiaozhe and Jiang Yingxue originally wanted to ask the people of the Chen family about the City God Temple, but they thought that they would be involved in the internal fighting of the Chen family, and Chen Shiming and Chen Shili finally tore their faces and started a war.
Chen Shili had long thought of this day, so he prepared a lot of people to ambush in the backyard of the Chen family, where did he think that Chen Shiming was even more exaggerated, he actually made dozens of zombies out.
Originally, Mo Xiaozhe suspected that it was the people of the Chen family who killed those children, but later both of them denied it, and Mo Xiaozhe asked who was Boss Zhang's client, but both of them said that they didn't know, and now Mo Xiaozhe was angry and wanted to do something with the people of the Chen family.
Chen Shili thought that Mo Xiaozhe was invited by Chen Shiming, so he thought that Chen Shiming was going to war, and as a result, the two groups fought.
After beating the two groups of people out of the courtyard, the Chen family was not in the city, but outside the city of Xuanzhou, because it was more convenient to go out of the city in the middle of the night to the underground imperial tomb.
In the end, the two groups of people fought to the death, and no one could care about Mo Xiaozhe and Jiang Yingxue, these two people watched the people of the Chen family kill each other, and watched those zombies show their teeth and claws, and they felt ridiculous in their hearts.
It seems that the people of the Chen family are not the murderers of the child, so will the people who killed the child be the two people who arrested Jiang Yingxue.
Before dawn, Mo Xiaozhe saw that the people of the Chen family still did not distinguish between high and low, so he left with Jiang Yingxue, and they were ready to rush to Xuzhou to find those two people.
Li Hu rushed to Xuanzhou early in the morning, but when he arrived at Chen's house, he didn't find anyone, so where did the Chen family's people go at this time?
In fact, the people of the Chen family all went to the imperial tomb, because Chen Shiming used the medicine left by the ancestors to control the little zombies, but because the battle dragged on for a long time, the drugs to control the little zombies lost their effect, so the people of the Chen family were afraid of being discovered by others, so they drove all the little zombies into the underground imperial tomb.
Of course, Li Hu didn't know these things, he was very anxious, afraid that Mo Xiaozhe and Jiang Yingxue would have an accident, but he didn't know where to look, so he had to return to Jinzhou.
After arriving in Jinzhou, just as the martial arts competition began, his master asked him to go directly to the competition, as long as he won three games, he could be directly promoted, and those who advanced to the second round could choose to join the army, so Li Hu decided to win three games first.
Because Li Hu was in a hurry, he wanted to continue to look for Mo Xiaozhe and Jiang Yingxue after participating in the competition, so he didn't pick the opponent at all, and fought against the level 22 warrior in the first round.
Level 20 defeated level 22 so easily, the people below are too high to be embarrassed to go up, too low and afraid of losing, because they win 3 times to advance, and if they lose three times in total, they are not eligible to compete again.
Li Hu looked at his master embarrassedly, and the master shook his head, saying that he had no choice but to wait, if no one went up to challenge Li Hu within an hour, then Li Hu would automatically advance.
Just when everyone thought that Li Hu would stand up to the automatic promotion, a hunchbacked man came up, holding a steel sword in his hand, Li Hu looked at this man who was much shorter than himself, but his heart was very nervous, because this man gave himself a feeling of a bloodthirsty tiger, so he didn't dare to take it lightly.
Li Hu didn't recognize this person, because he was from the Martial Arts Academy, Liu Gang recognized this person at a glance, this guy is someone he has known for a long time, don't look at his low level, but where Liu Gang is very famous, this person is nicknamed hunchback, more than 30 years old, 15 years old is 20 levels, but in the past 15 years, he has not been upgraded, but has done tasks everywhere, and in 15 years, he has done a lot of tasks that cannot be completed at level 20, and he went down to the second floor of the underground imperial tomb alone, and only after killing more than 60 big zombies did he retreat. He is the vice president of the Yangzhou Mercenary Union, and the lowest level among all the vice presidents.
Hunchback looked at Li Hu, he didn't want to come up, but it was the people of the Yangzhou Guild who were beaten down by Li Hu just now, so he wanted to earn some face for the Yangzhou Guild.
After the two said hello, they began to fight, the hunchback used the moves of the mercenary union, the mercenary union is different from the martial arts academy, the mercenary union pays attention to actual combat, so the moves are ruthless and tricky, and the martial arts academy pays attention to martial arts, so the attacks are clear-eyed, and soon Li Hu was at a disadvantage, but fortunately, the hunchback did not have a killer.
Li Hu felt as if he had returned to the dark forest, and faced the bloodthirsty tiger again, the hunchbacked man in front of him put a lot of pressure on himself every move, and Li Hu had to do his best to resist every time, and in the end Li Hu was still unable to resist the hunchback's attack, took a few steps back, and admitted defeat.
The hunchback is not polite, just standing in the middle of the competition platform, looking at the people in the field, this competition is mainly for those below level 30, is to deliver some basic combat power to the army, so no one dares to step forward to challenge the hunchback.
Humpback stood on it for an hour, and then the Mercenary Guild and the Martial Arts Academy jointly announced that Humpback was the first person to successfully advance in this competition, and if he wanted to get a better name, he would have to wait for the second round to start.
The hunchback nodded to the referee's table and went down.
As soon as the hunchback went down, Li Hu went up again, because Li Hu was defeated by the hunchback, so many people were eager to try, and soon Li Hu defeated the two people, and also successfully advanced, the second round was ten days later, so Li Hu had ten days to find Mo Xiaozhe.
Since he didn't know that Mo Xiaozhe would go there, Li Hu decided to go to Xuzhou first.
Xuzhou City.
Mo Xiaozhe took Jiang Yingxue to turn the city of Xuzhou upside down, but he couldn't find those two people, as if these two people had evaporated from the world.
The two returned to the inn, because it was inconvenient to take the two children, so Xiao San and Xiao Qi stayed in the inn.
The junior asked, "Eldest sister, have you found the murderer of your younger brothers and sisters?" ā
Jiang Yingxue said: "No, I found the Chen family with your little brother, but it wasn't the Chen family, so we went back to Xuzhou to find another group of people." ā
Mo Xiaozhe said: "Little San, your task is to be optimistic about Xiao Qi, just leave these things to me and your eldest sister, don't think too much, Brother Xiao Zhe must give an explanation to those dead brothers and sisters"
