Volume 2: Dragon Teng Xijing Chapter 407: The Semifinals Begin (1)
After thinking about these things, Lu Yao also figured out another thing at the same time.
After Zhou Xiang's competition was over that day, he told himself that he had something to discuss with himself, but after he went, it was Lan Jing who discussed things with him, and Lan Jing said to himself with a hippie smile at the time: Don't forget what you promised some people.
At that time, Lan Jing said vaguely, and Lu Yao didn't ask it thoroughly, so he left, and now it seems that they may have already known what was going to happen later.
Many things have been figured out at this point, Lu Yao also felt a lot more relaxed, looking at Hai Lao in front of him, he suddenly remembered something, and asked casually: "Hai Lao, can you tell me about the Lu family in Yanjing?" ”
"What, are you interested in the Yanjing Lu family?" Hai Lao was suddenly stunned for a moment, looked at Lu Yao and asked.
"Ask casually, if Hai Lao finds it inconvenient, just let me not ask." Lu Yao felt that Hai Lao's reaction was a little strange, so he said.
"Not really!" Hai Lao said: "I know that there are some unpleasant things between you and Lu Xing, Lu Tong and Lu Xue of the Yanjing Lu family, but I tell you the truth, you'd better not attack them, otherwise you may regret it!" ”
"Oh, what do you mean by that?" Lu Yao was very surprised by Hai Lao's words and asked in surprise.
"There are some things you will know in the future, but now is not the time, Lu Yao, Yanjing Lu family, you slowly check the affairs of the Lu family in Yanjing, go and see, think about it, I won't tell you." Hai Lao said with a mysterious smile.
Lu Yao really couldn't figure it out, why did this sea elder tell him some things about the Immortal Cultivation Realm and the Ancient Martial Realm, but he didn't tell himself about the Yanjing Lu family, could it be that the Yanjing Lu family was more mysterious than them?
"Hai Lao, so let's do it, I only want to ask one question, who is the most powerful person in the Lu family's martial arts in Yanjing?" Lu Yao thought about it and asked such a question in a roundabout way.
"You little slippery head." Hai Lao looked at Lu Yao and said helplessly, and then said: "The best person in the Yanjing Lu family eighteen years ago was Lu Jingtian, and I don't know who it is now. ”
"I don't know, what does that mean?" Lu Yao asked puzzled.
"Some people say that Lu Jingtian is dead, and some people say that Lu Jingtian is just in retreat, I don't know which of them is right, if Lu Jingtian is really dead, then the highest strength of the Lu family now may be Lu Xuan, if Lu Jingtian is not dead, I think the highest strength may still be him, after all, he is a genius who has to make people give a thumbs up, a peerless genius!"
"Lu Jingtian, Lu Jingtian?" After listening to Hai Lao's words, Lu Yao silently read Lu Jingtian's name twice, and then smiled happily and said to Hai Lao: "Thank you Hai Lao for telling me all this, Hai Lao's kindness has been written down by the juniors." ”
Hai Lao waved his hand and said, "Okay, don't remember my kindness, these things are not what I want to tell you, but someone told you through my mouth, if you want to thank him." ”
Someone told himself through the mouth of Hai Lao?
"Gotta have it, don't ask me anymore, even if you ask me, I won't tell you, I don't want to be repaired when I'm old." Hai Lao saw Lu Yao's expression and knew that he still had to ask himself who this person was, so he nipped Lu Yao's idea in the bud in advance.
Lu Yao also smiled embarrassedly when he saw this, so he didn't ask again.
"Lu Yao, there are some things that you will slowly know in the future, since they chose you, I believe there must be their reasons, this is your life, and it is also your luck, others can't envy it." Hai Lao did show a look of envy in the end, looked at Lu Yao and said: "Remember my words, the wood is beautiful in the forest, and the wind will destroy it." Heap out of the shore, the flow must be turbulent, the line is higher than the people, the public must not be, the future is not far away, overturn the track! ”
Lu Yao put down the cup in his hand, stood up, and bowed deeply to Hai Lao, although these words were told by Hai Lao, but Lu Yao could also feel it, Hai Lao was indeed very kind and sincere to himself, such an elder could afford Lu Yao's bow.
"Okay, you go back, you must be careful to deal with it next, the Japanese players are not good this time." Hai Lao stood up after speaking.
Lu Yao slowly walked towards his room.
……
……
There was nothing to say all night, and when it was just dawn, Lu Yao got up from the bed and practiced the Dragon Breath Gong and the Pure Heart Decision twice, these two mental methods are currently the best means for Lu Yao to adjust his state and recuperate, and he has to do so whenever he encounters a big battle.
The weather was not good that day, and when Lu Yao woke up, the sky was drizzling, and by the time he finished practicing, the rain was not small but even bigger.
On weekdays, when the contestants participate in the competition, they arrange their own vehicles from the Rainbow Hotel to the competition venue, but now in the semi-finals, the organizers have prepared special cars for the four finalists who have entered the semi-finals, and they only need to take the car arranged by the organizer to the venue.
It is not very far from the Rainbow Hotel to the stadium of Xijing University, it is a fifteen-minute drive on weekdays, although there are a lot of vehicles on the road today, but because they sit in a special pass arranged by the organizers, the time is almost the same as on weekdays, this fifteen-minute drive, the rain has become heavier, and when they get off the car, the rainwater on the ground has been collected into a stream, and they are busy running along the drainage canal to their destination.
When Lu Yao walked into the arena, he found that there were already a lot of people sitting in the stands, because the arena was too big, so there was no equipment to shelter from the rain, many people were sitting there with umbrellas or raincoats waiting for the start of the game, Lu Yao saw so many people who love martial arts braving the heavy rain to watch the game, and his heart was also inexplicably a little excited.
Watching the game with an umbrella can indeed avoid being wet by the rain, but the umbrella also blocks the sight of many people, and when there is still half an hour before the start of the game, Lu Yao was surprised to find that the organizers have equipped everyone with a raincoat of good quality.
"It seems that this time the organizers are not blindly making money, they are still doing their work very well!" Lu Yao sincerely praised the organizer of this competition in his heart.
It's just that he doesn't know where the organizer is sacred and can have so much energy.
At the same time, because today is the semi-finals, the competition was not directly announced at the beginning, but several singers and martial arts players presented a wonderful and colorful performance, although these performances were not as beautiful as the real competition, but also won warm applause from the audience.
"Now, let's invite the four players who entered the semi-finals of this martial arts competition to make their debut!" The host finally announced the start of the game after a long wait.
Lu Yao, Lan Jing, Matsushiro and Michiko Ishihara slowly stood up from their seats and walked towards the middle of the ring, maybe ordinary people would not find out, but the four of them saw each other clearly, such a big rain, but not a drop of rain fell on them, when the rain fell from the sky, and when it was about to reach them, there was always an invisible force that "pushed" the raindrops away, so that they could not get close.
The four of them glanced at each other, especially Lan Jing, since he stood beside Lu Yao, he had been looking at him with a smile that made Lu Yao goosebumps all over his body, if it weren't for the fact that he learned from Hai Lao yesterday that this Lan Jing, who looked like a big living treasure, was actually the young master of the Lan family, the captain of the "Law Enforcement Brigade" in the Immortal Cultivation Realm, Lu Yao really wondered if this guy had a problem or a special habit.
The host introduced the identities of the four people in turn, and the four of them also spoke a few words of their own feelings in turn, and finally entered the topic after more than ten minutes.
Before the semi-finals began, no one knew what kind of format the semi-finals would use, the audience was like this, and so were the players, until the four people stood in the ring, the host took out a piece of paper from a closed envelope and announced loudly: "This time the semi-finals use two formats of single competition and double competition, the two sides are divided into the Northwest Chinese martial arts team and the Japanese triad team, singles, both sides play two games each, the opponent is randomly selected, and the four-person melee in the doubles competition ......"
"Good, good, good!"
"It's enjoyable, it's really enjoyable, I've seen it now, and there's a scuffle, I like it the most!"
"him. Damn! ”
“……”
The host announced the end of the competition system, Lu Yao and the four of them also felt that it was more reasonable, and the audience was even more happy, it was one more game to play, one more game was to be watched, and it was the one who spent money to watch the game, and this is what I liked the most. But in this way, some people said something different.
"Isn't that unfair?"
"How is it unfair?"
"The Japanese players have not competed before, and the two players of our Northwest Martial Arts have experienced several consecutive days of competition, and their energy has been lost a little, and there is also a confused Lan Jing among the representatives of the Northwest Martial Arts, isn't this a drag?"
"yes, it seems really unfair!"
"What's this, have you forgotten, there is Lu Yao among the representatives of the Northwest Martial Arts, his strength is obvious to all, even if Lan Jing can't lose the game, but we have to believe that Lu Yao will be able to turn the tide and win the game!"
"Yes, yes, let's cheer for Lu Yao together!"
"Come on Lu Yao, Lu Yao, we love you!"
“……”
As soon as Lu Yao was mentioned, everyone immediately had confidence and began to cheer for Lu Yao frantically.
Michiko Ishihara and Matsushiro also glanced at Lu Yao when they heard everyone shouting Lu Yao's name, especially Michiko Ishihara's expression was a little weird.
