Chapter 221: The First Test

Old lady Qiu listened to it on the side, and couldn't help but praise, "Okay, the girl is so ambitious, she is worthy of being the inheritor who was taught by Jiyuan herself." ”

This praise was very loud, and many people watched it.

For Mrs. Qiu, at the beginning, she felt pity for her younger generations and felt guilty, so she gave Xue Ling this pendant, which was a promise, and now when she sees Xue Ling's move, it is more of a compliment.

A little woman has such a broad mind that even a man can't do it, but she is impressed.

Xue Ling smiled softly, "My father has taught me since I was a child, losing is not terrible, but winning must be frank and open, I accepted this pendant, that is, I accepted a piece of kindness from my uncle and grandfather, but this competition should be won or lost, should be based on their own ability, go all out, not only responsible for themselves, but also respect opponents and rules." ”

Old lady Qiu laughed, "Ah Ling's words are specially said to me, you are so frank, I naturally have to do my best, even so, I will have a good competition with you today, it doesn't matter whether you win or lose, the important thing is to go all out, girl, my Qiu family is good at incense illusion, although you give up this pendant, but wait a while, I will not show mercy to this subordinate, you are afraid, if you are afraid, it is too late to regret it now." ”

Xue Ling laughed, "Being able to compete with my uncle and grandfather with real swords and guns is something I have been looking forward to for a long time, whether I win or lose, it is a lifelong unforgettable thing, please advise." ”

Jiang Mingxu listened to it on the side, and nodded secretly, "Ah Ling's words are excellent, you are still young, and your achievements in the future will definitely be great, just try your best today, whether you win or lose, it is a good experience." ”

Xue Ling put away her expression and said solemnly, "Yes, uncle." ”

Since then.

The first round of the competition officially began.

By now, there are more and more onlookers.

Even if you can't see the situation here, the faint noise below is still coming and going.

"This time the competition is different from the past."

Nangong Sheng said loudly, "The witch of the world, respect the south, the witch of the south, respect Jiangling, can be the witch master of Jiangling, not only the water and soil of this side are protected, but also the people of the whole country, which is also the reason why this competition is quite valued by the court." ”

Nangong Sheng said, raised his eyes and looked at the four of them, "I know that the four major witch clans in Jiangling are all in-laws, but this competition is not just a contest between you, but to choose the most suitable witch master for the south, this is not only a matter of the south, but also a matter of the whole country, I hope you will take out all your skills and go all out." ”

After Nangong Sheng finished speaking, he started the first round of competition.

This round of competition is called a pass.

A boxy house.

One in front and one behind, two doors.

The front door is in, the back door is out.

The first to win.

It's as simple as it sounds.

But this round of competition is very difficult.

It's not just a matter of witchcraft, it's a contest of mentality and perseverance.

It's easy to get in, but hard to get out.

If you want to open this back door, you must combine the efforts of two people to open the door, but only one person can win, that is, if you want to win this level, one of them must willingly admit defeat.

Xue Ling walked in, with a fearless light in his eyes. The door behind him was shut.

Cut off from all light and sound.

It's a small house, but it feels empty and empty.

Even if it's daytime, it's like night inside.

Such a setting is also destined that this competition cannot be faked, so everyone is paying attention to the results of this competition.

Zeng Yi looked at the closed door, his eyes wrinkled slightly, and the worry in his eyes loomed.

Nangong Sheng's gaze fell on Zeng Yi's body, and teased, "You chose this competition level, what's the matter?" Regret it now? ”

Zeng Yi wiped away the worry in his eyes, and when he opened his eyes again, it was already Gujing Wubo, and he arched his hand and said, "Back to His Royal Highness the eldest grandson, I have never seen such a competition, so I took a few more looks." ”

Nangong Sheng didn't tear him down, just smiled indifferently.

The prefect of Jiangling didn't know the meaning of Nangong Sheng's words, and when he mentioned this competition, he took the initiative to say, "No wonder Mr. Zeng has never seen it, even if I have been an official in Jiangling for three years, I have never seen it." I think the prince should have seen it. ”

King Gangneung smiled kindly, "Speaking of which, it has been nearly thirty years since this king came to Gangneung as the king in his teens, and he has never seen such a competition. Therefore, the king does not know what the result of this contest will be. I only heard that this witch doctor building has been more than 100 years now, I don't know all the witch doctors here, but who knows the reason for this? ”

Xue Chengjing said, "Back to the prince, I also heard my father talk about it when he was alive. This witch doctor building is built by the four major families, after the completion, the competition was held, the winner became the witch master, at that time among the four people, the ancestor of the Xue family won, the ancestor after that, lived to more than ninety before going first, these decades, every time he wins, the Xue family has been sitting firmly in the witch master, and then, the witch master has been inherited by the Xue family, and the competition every five years is also from complex to simple. As for this competition formation, I will take a break every year, but in these years, there are few opportunities to really compete. ”

Xue Chengxiao also said, "In fact, this formation is very simple, that is, when it is built, all the light and outside sounds are isolated, and the space inside is not large, less than five meters from the front door to the back, as long as one of them admits defeat and assists the other, the door can be opened together." That's the rules of the competition. ”

The simpler the rules, the harder they are.

There is a kind of unyielding disposition in people's bones.

If you want to be convinced, it's not easy.

The competition is also a kind of battlefield, and in such an atmosphere, it is impossible to admit defeat willingly with a little in-law or guilt.

This is also the reason why Xue Ling is reluctant to use the pendant.

Humanity, she sees it better than anyone else.

What's more, she has her own arrogance and disdains to use such means to win.

To be born as a human being, you can use stratagem and means, but you must rely on strength.

At this time, no one knew Xue Ling's mood.

Of course, no one knows what it will be like inside, and no one knows who will come out first.

The wooden door that was closed shut off from all.

Little by little, time passed.

Zeng Yi stared at the wooden door tightly.

The fist couldn't help but clench.

I don't know how long it took.

Maybe it didn't take long, but for Zeng Yi, it was like spending time like a year.

Suddenly, I heard a voice say,

"The head of the Jiang family came out first."

"The head of the Jiang family won the first round of competition."
