Chapter 17: There is a play
Walking all the way to the south of the official road, it is April at this time, the two sides of the official road are planted with rows of camphor trees, dense and flourishing bushes of branches and leaves, secretly hiding many milky white fine flowers, hiding quite carefully, if you don't look carefully, you can't find it at all.
But this fills the air, the fresh and elegant fragrance of flowers, but it can't be hidden.
Qi Luo lay lazily in the carriage, through the window, through the treetops, you could see the blue sky like a wash, and it was a good day.
The flower pig in his arms was sleeping soundly with his arms in his arms.
On this trip, the group took a total of 4 carriages, and the carriages of Qi Luo and the British Duchess were newly modified by Qi Luo.
The carriage was wider than usual, with a couch on either side that was more than 20 centimeters wide, and was covered with thick embroidered cushions and seats.
On the wall in the middle of the two couches, there is also a small carved table that can be folded.
The porcelain plate of the carved table contains all kinds of melons, fruits and snacks.
Qi Luo's mother, the British Duchess, was lying on the couch on the other side holding her notebook - Jianghu Fengyunlu.
……………
Twilight, stay in Yucheng.
The carriage of the British duchess stopped at the Guangyue Inn, which was the inn where the British duchess had to stay every time they passed through Yucheng.
Guangyue Inn is one of the largest inns in Yucheng, and it is also the most frequent place for people from the rivers and lakes.
"Ladies and gentlemen, please come inside!"
The enthusiastic shopkeeper welcomed the group into the inn.
Except for the capital, there are not too many eunuchs in other places. This time I went out, it was too eye-catching, and the group was wearing the clothes of people from the rivers and lakes.
It was dinner time, and the lobby of the inn was full of guests.
The appearance of Qi Luo and the British duchess attracted the attention of many people, after all, there are not many beauties like this.
However, people who walk the rivers and lakes are accustomed to gauging the situation. Qi Luo and his entourage have a lot of people, and there are many masters of the inner family, everyone only thinks that they are the family members of the martial arts family, and no one dares to come forward to disturb them.
"Luo Bao'er, let's sit at this table!"
The English duchess picked the center of the hall.
Well! It's really a good place to hear from all directions.
The rest of the guards and maids also sat down in all directions.
"Xiao Er, let's have a plate of signature sauce beef, a spicy chicken suede noodles, a fried green bamboo shoots, a chive tofu, and a pot of green glutinous wine."
The English Duchess is very familiar with the road.
At the next table sat a woman in a white shirt and two young men, all three of whom were wearing the same white robes, thinking that they were brothers and sisters of a certain sect.
The British duchess's eyes were shining, and she quietly looked around.
Just as she entered the room, the British duchess had already equipped her waist with a matching sword.
Mother, you are really a dutiful actor!
"Tomorrow's ring, can the senior brothers play?" I only heard the woman in the white shirt ask.
"Senior brother can really give it a try, if the junior brother is not good at martial arts, he won't embarrass the master."
The white-robed man known as Senior Brother nodded: "Then I'll give it a try tomorrow." ”
"I heard that this competition recruits relatives, and there are a lot of colorful heads, in addition to the beautiful girl, there is also the throne of the owner of Qijian Villa, is this matter serious?" The black-faced man on the side interjected.
"It's true, this competition to recruit relatives, the owner of Qijian Villa wants to find a son-in-law with strong martial arts for his daughter to enter the villa, and he can inherit the position of the owner of Qi Zhuang in the future."
Recruiting relatives in martial arts?!
The English palace lady rubbed her little hands.
"Brother, during the day, I saw that there were a lot of people gathered at the East City Gatehouse, but where was the martial arts competition?"
"Exactly! The East City Gate Tower has been lively recently, and the ring where the owner of Qijian Villa recruits relatives for his daughter is set up there. ”
"As everyone knows, this ring is already the third day, but there is still an endless stream of people from all over the world."
"Qi Sword Villa, but the Qi Sword Sect of the First Gate Sect in Yu City belongs?"
"Exactly, not only this Yucheng, but also the Qi Sword Sect is also a sect in the rivers and lakes. The owner of Qi Dazhuang only has this baby daughter, you don't know that this Miss Qi is a beauty who sinks fish and geese and closes the moon and shy flowers! ”
Insiders have a word for you.
"How is this ring set up? Brother, let's hear it! ”
"Brother, we just came here too, tell us about it." A tall and thin young man with a mustache also said busily.
Stop! There are a lot of curious people.
"I heard that this competition is different from the previous rules, it is a lottery to determine the opponent, and 10 people are a game."
"Those who want to participate in the fight need to register in advance, and after registration, a draw will be conducted, and the first battle between No. 1 and No. 2, the winner will fight against No. 3, and the next rotation will be continued."
"The winner of every 10 people advances to the next round. After all the first rounds are over, the second round will be played. ”
"After 3 days, the first round has not yet been completed."
"There are already 16 people who have passed the first round."
"Isn't there already 160 people in the ring?" Someone exclaimed.
"Why. More than 300 people have already registered. ”
"It's worthy of Qijian Villa!" Everyone sighed.
"Brother, who won the first round of the ring?"
"The winner of the first group is a white-faced scholar, who looks so suave and suave, and is known as the iron fan scholar. The weapon he is best at is the iron bone fan. The middle-aged Taoist interjected.
"The winner of the second group is a black-faced man with a big waist and a round waist, and an iron gun is a tiger."
"The winner of the third group is the senior brother of the Crimson faction, and he dances with a good sword."
"The winner of the fourth group is Bai Tang, the son of the head of the Ancient Sword Sect, I think this should be the most powerful master these days."
"The sons of the head of the Ancient Sword Sect are here? Big brother, should we bet on two? ”
"I heard that several money banks around have opened several gambling games, and we can go and add two bets tomorrow, although we can't play in the ring, can't we still make some money!" Two middle-aged businessmen by the window laughed.
"The winner of the fifth group is a monk."
"How can there be a monk?"
"Monks can also be vulgar, right?! The owner of Qi Dazhuang did not say that the monks could not participate. ”
The crowd burst into laughter.
"That's not good, I have to go tomorrow, I'll leave my mother-in-law when I go home!" The old man amused.
"Uncle, this married person can't do it!"
The crowd laughed again............
"Luo Bao'er, why don't we go and see it tomorrow?" The English Duchess's eyes lit up.
Qi Luo finally understood why her mother had to live in this kind of inn every time!
There's a drama here!
Not to mention the British duchess, Qi Luo is also very excited, and has never seen a martial arts competition.
And it's still such a big battle!
This has to go!
The mother and daughter hit it off.
