Chapter 513: The Old Man
Song Qingxiao quickly withdrew a few hundred meters away before slowing down.
Her arms and neck were stimulated by the strong yin qi before, and at this time, the light and shadow of scales had already instinctively surfaced, and the middle-aged man who carried the coffin before was by no means an ordinary person, judging from his aura and murderous aura, he had at least reached the level of a powerhouse above the Dan realm.
And although the giant coffin on his back seemed to be separated by a thick dead air, Song Qingxiao vaguely felt that there was something extremely dangerous and terrifying inside.
The strength of this middle-aged man is very strong, such a figure appeared in the private guard camp of the Shi family, coupled with the previous reprimand of the leader, saying that this place cannot be indiscriminate, all kinds of circumstances make Song Qingxiao more and more determined, this is very likely to be one of the members of the hidden family who belongs to the Shi family who went to the exam this time!
Thinking about it, just now she accidentally entered the forbidden land, not to mention, and met such a terrifying cultivator.
Under the rotation of the spiritual power in Song Qingxiao's body, the scale armor phantom that appeared on her body gradually disappeared again, and she immediately thought of the old man who followed the middle-aged man in the coffin under a hurried glance before.
This person probably didn't think of her for a while, but the moment she saw this old man, she remembered this person's identity!
In the trial of Chu Ke's revenge, he cultivated to a profound No. 2 old man!
In the battle with Chu Ke, he showed super strength, and he seemed to be extremely familiar with the necromancy and yin qi, but in the end, because he was in a hurry to complete the task, he was misled by Chu Ke and fled with the corpse of No. 3.
After Song Qingxiao separated from him at that time, there was no intersection after the task was completed, although she guessed from the point reward that this person should not die later, but she didn't expect to meet this person here.
If I am not mistaken, in the mission of Death Qin Feichu, the character in the plot introduced the name of this person, it seems that the surname Fan is Fan and his name is Fan Jiangqu.
This old man was strong at that time, and he repelled Chu Ke several times, and his magical powers were vast, and he was very impressed by Song Qing's caution, and at the beginning of the encounter, he recognized him at a glance.
But judging from Fan Jiangqu's performance, he did not recognize Song Qingxiao at first sight.
Although it was only a short time to get along during the trial, Song Qingxiao also figured out a little bit of this person's character, and he was extremely arrogant and confident.
Maybe it was in the trial of Qin Feichu, Fan Jiangqu thought that the strength she showed at that time was not worth his attention, and after the death of Qin Feichu, although the actual time was only a few months in the past, it was very likely that this person had entered the trial again in these few months, so he might not be able to think of Song Qingxiao for a while.
But as long as he recalls it carefully and remembers who he is, it is only a matter of time.
Once he remembers himself, she may be in danger when her identity is revealed.
Song Qing had a bad premonition in her care, Fan Jiangqu and the middle-aged man who carried the coffin, although the qi displayed by the two were diametrically opposed, it was very likely that they were from the same family, and if one was not good, she would probably be sniped by the two!
This trip promised Cao Zeng to accompany Liu Xiao and others to the base camp of the Shi family, originally to find out the person in the hidden family who assassinated him at the beginning, but he didn't expect that he would have such a thing by mistake!
At this time, she was alone, and the silver wolf was left in the reserve for various reasons, and the situation was very unfavorable for her.
However, this is the worst-case prediction, and it is possible that it is just a false alarm.
After all, when Qin Fei Chu died, she deliberately hid her strength in front of Fan Jiangqu, and since that trial, she has unlocked the blue blood seal several times in succession and evolved the strength of her physical body, which is diametrically opposed to the image of broken hair and covering her face at that time, Fan Jiangqu may not be able to think of it in a short time.
What's more, as soon as he was reprimanded, he left in a hurry, and he shouldn't have left any doubts.
As long as the competition time passed, as soon as the ban on the Shi family only entering and leaving was removed, she immediately left the imperial capital and returned to the reserve, expecting that Fan Jiangqu might not be able to find herself in a short time!
But even so, you have to be more careful these days.
When Song Qingxiao returned to the temporarily arranged dormitory, it was already evening, and Liu Xiao and the others were sitting on the ground with great interest, discussing something.
When he saw Song Qingxiao coming back, Liu Xiao's eyes lit up, and he immediately greeted:
"Qingxiao, where did you go before?"
Song Qing smiled and responded: "I turned around at will and looked at the private guard camp." ”
Liu Xiao clenched his fist with one hand and hit the palm of the other hand hard, and said with some regret:
"It's a pity, you missed something wonderful on the school practice ground today!"
Song Qing urinated and asked, "What happened?" ”
"On the school training ground today, when everyone challenged the captain, guess who appeared?"
She looked at Liu Xiao's excitement, and remembered the thin old man who had a conflict with a few big men outside the school training room, I am afraid that after she left, those big men and the old man suffered a loss, causing a sensation.
"Someone from the institute has appeared?" As soon as she asked, Liu Xiao was stunned: "How do you know?" ”
Song Qingxiao didn't say anything about the skirmish he saw before leaving, so he found an excuse to fool him over randomly: "Since you mentioned something wonderful, it must be someone from the Martial Arts Research Institute who appeared in the private guard camp." ”
Liu Xiao's personality is very arrogant, he didn't doubt her words at all, and when he heard her say this, he immediately smiled and said:
"Yes! At that time, the samurai of the Martial Arts Research Institute appeared and taught a few unsightly boys. ”
As soon as the commotion arose, it attracted the attention of the captain who was training the newcomers in the private guard camp in the field, and immediately squeezed out to take a look, and saw a few bold people who dared to do something with the old man, and immediately shocked and pointed out the identity of the old man.
The people in the martial arts academy are high up to the people in the private guard camp and dare not offend, and to these newcomers, they are more like legendary characters.
Liu Xiao had long been yearning for the Martial Arts Research Institute, and now that he had met his seniors, he was still excited.
As soon as the samurai of the Martial Arts Research Institute appeared, the captain of the private guard battalion asked him for advice and gave him advice on his cultivation in front of everyone.
"You don't know, Captain Yang's strength is no longer below our captain, but between shots, he is still restricted."
Watching such a master competition has benefited Liu Xiao a lot, and he has gained a lot from talking with his hands and feet.
Song Qing pretended to be careful, and he was not very interested in these things, and after a few people talked about it, they didn't mention it anymore.
After a few people made an appointment to go to the cafeteria for dinner, because there was a competition tomorrow, everyone packed up early and prepared to rest, so as to recuperate their spirits to cope with tomorrow's competition.
The first night passed peacefully, and nothing happened.
Song Qingxiao breathed a sigh of relief, but he didn't dare to completely relax his vigilance.
The first day of the exam was the easiest, and the players from all over the empire were like a pot of chowder, and with the strength of Liu Xiao, they easily defeated their opponents and entered the second round.
After the competition that day, the people who were eliminated in the first round were transferred away on the grounds of arranging their camps, and the martial arts hall, which was still overcrowded on the first day, suddenly vacated most of the seats.
In the evening, taking advantage of the gap between Liu Xiao and the others going to the martial arts hall to practice with other exam participants, Song Qingxiao went around the private guard camp again, and found from a distance that the huge martial arts hall where she met Fan Jiangqu and the others yesterday had been temporarily closed.
With the martial arts hall as the dividing line, there are already special people guarding it, prohibiting others from approaching, obviously to prevent yesterday's incident from happening, which can be regarded as an indirect proof of Song Qingxiao's speculation about the identity of Fan Jiangqu and others yesterday.
At the same time, she just broke in by mistake for a while, which made the people in the private guard camp react so quickly, which shows that the meeting at that time was not a trivial matter in the eyes of these people, and such a cautious attitude could not arouse Fan Jiangqu's suspicion.
It is very dangerous for trialists to meet in reality, especially when the other party's strength is stronger than their own, and it is even more dangerous.
When Song Qingxiao returned to the lounge, Liu Xiao and the others were also there, as if they had been back for a long time, they were also worried, and said a very bad news - on this day, many newcomers were more or less injured and entered the team's hospital.
"Some people get injured on the field, and a small number of people are caused by a miss in the middle of a match." However, there are still many people who have been seriously injured by sneak attacks and ambushes in remote places, and the situation is far more serious than the first two.
Most of these people who were ambushed by sneak attacks were the victors in today's arena, and if they were injured at this time, tomorrow's exam would definitely be affected, and some people would no longer be able to participate in the exam at all.
This evening, if it weren't for Liu Xiao and the others going in and out together, I am afraid they would have been ambushed.
"As is the practice of previous years, the headquarters acquiesces in this form of competition in order to eliminate a group of players who are slightly inferior in all aspects." One of the team members sighed, "This year, I heard that on the last day of the competition, there will be some important figures, and the final winner will be awarded a position by the royal family." ”
So this situation may emerge in an endless stream in the next two days.
Among several people, Song Qingxiao was the strongest, and Cao Zeng asked her to accompany her, also to prevent this from happening.
When she heard this person finish speaking, she pondered for a moment: "Everyone has been vigilant in the past two days, try not to separate between actions, and try to pick people who are sure and familiar with the martial arts practice." ”
Although Liu Xiao and others won the game, they were mixed in the midst of a big winner, and it was not very eye-catching, but after tomorrow's game, after eliminating a bunch of people, Liu Xiao and others' situation would be more dangerous.
As she expected, the night passed peacefully.
With the passage of time, the existence of Fan Jiangqu and others was like a thorn in her heart, and the calm at this time was like the calm before the storm, brewing a crisis that made her feel uneasy.
After daybreak, the atmosphere in the private camp suddenly became much more tense.
Today, Liu Xiao and the four of them each have four rounds of competition, and Song Qingxiao went to the arena with a few others.
Due to the large number of participants in this competition, the arena was divided into several different areas, and when several people came, each area was already crowded with onlookers.
Among these people were people from the private guard battalion who came to watch the battle, as well as escorts from the major reserves of the empire who came with the members of the team who participated in the game like Song Qingxiao, and some patrol guards on duty and some people who were hidden in the shadows.
When Song Qingxiao came over, he felt that there were several faint divine senses sweeping over several of his people, Liu Xiao's strength was slightly stronger, and he had already cultivated his qi sense, and the moment the divine sense swept over, he raised his head very vigilantly and looked around, but because the qi sense was too weak, he did not accurately find the person hidden in the shadows.
His reaction was seen by many people, and the next moment Song Qing felt several eyes that seemed to be faint and turned around him, and then took it back.
She followed these breaths and silently remembered these people who had paid attention to Liu Xiao in her heart.
