However, the time for the competition has arrived, and in addition to Li Mengbai and Qin Shaohan arriving on time, there are still three martial artists who have been delayed.

It stands to reason that at such a time, it is impossible for someone to be late, let alone remember the wrong time or something. And it's a little strange that one person is still understandable, and none of the three appear.

After consulting Zhao Qi, the competition was postponed for half an hour, and he sent someone to the inn of the three candidates to have a look.

The crowd in the audience was full of wonders, what was going on, didn't they say that the game would start at three o'clock? It's almost time!

Qin Shaohan and Li Mengbai walked down from the high platform one after another, waiting for the arrival of the three candidates.

Today's screaming is a little weaker, for the following reasons: first, the game is getting more and more tense at the end, and the number of participants is limited, so you have to rely on grabbing; The second is that after the income fee, many girls' families are reluctant to let them come, what is it that girls show up, they can sneak in before, but now they have to reach out and ask for silver, and the family does not agree to say it, so they simply lock the house!

However, there is always a group of die-hard fans. They pulled a banner made of gray linen and shouted as much as they could: Qin Gongzi will win!

When he shouted to the end, his throat smoked, and he couldn't help but complain in his heart that the other little sisters were not interesting enough, and said that he had followed Qin Gongzi all the way to the end, why was it invalid halfway, and he was simply not worthy of being Qin Gongzi's fan sister!

Putting aside the little Jiujiu that the group of little girls had fought in their hearts, the secret guards sent to find the three candidates came back.

At the same time, I brought back a shocking news: the three candidates are missing!

Zhao Qi warned everyone to block the news, and then asked Zheng Zhi to find an excuse to explain to the onlookers below that this round of the game would be postponed.

When Zhao Qi and the others left, they heard Zheng Zhi solemnly announce on the high platform: "Several candidates ate bad stomachs at the same time, and due to physical problems, this assessment was postponed and discussed!" ”

Zhao Qi twitched the corners of his mouth, he couldn't say a better excuse, he could eat five bad stomachs at the same time.

But it can't be so much, it's one thing for the onlookers to believe it or not, and it's good for them to give an explanation.

The Tobe Shangshu who was counting the silver heard it, and the game was not competitive? Hold on to the silver, and the entrance fee will not be refunded anyway!

Tang Tang pouted and walked out with the flow of complaining people from all sides, finally the stinky Taoist priest didn't have to take the exam, and he wanted to watch the excitement, but this time he didn't see the excitement, and his mood was not beautiful!

"I'm going to ask Zhao Qi what's going on?" The more Tang Tang thought about it, the more depressed he became, and he turned around and was about to leave.

Shen Changfeng grabbed it: "Don't make trouble." He just saw Shen Lingjun and Su Musha coming in a hurry, saying something to Zhao Qi, and then hurried away, obviously in a hurry.

Qing and Cicada Yu each took Mu Qing's little hand and nodded seriously: "Yes, the general and the young lady must have serious business." ”

Feng Zheng shook his head: "I just said that the food provided in the examination room is not good." ”

It happened that Li Mengbai came out to look for them, and several people asked Li Mengbai what happened just now, why did he suddenly not compare?

Li Mengbai actually didn't know very well, scratched his face and said, "It seems that something went wrong with the other three martial artists." ”

Tang Tang poked Li Mengbai with a flute: "Didn't you eat a bad stomach?" ”

Li Mengbai saw a few people next to him looking at him with curious eyes, and quickly covered his stomach: "It's still a little painful!" ”

When a few people walked out onto the street, the crowd was almost gone.

Tang Tang jumped up and walked in front and had already gotten on the bridge. At this moment, I was so unhappy to see a small boat in the river riding the wind overnight.

His black eyes lit up, he turned his head and waved his hand excitedly: "Hey! Let's go for a tour of the lake. ”

The three missing martial artists happened to be staying at the same inn, which was the Xinyue Inn where Xiang Wentian lived before.

Originally, this Xinyue Inn was dead, and the shopkeeper was about to die, so he reduced various expenses again and again, and only needed the money of a T-shaped room for a Tianzi room. Under such temptation, in the end, there were finally so many unbelievers who dared to move in.

Unexpectedly, this stay, three martial arts students in a row entered the final second round of the martial arts test!

Now the shopkeeper is happy, if you accidentally have a champion or something, what if you have died, there are not many people who come here!

If he takes 10,000 steps back, even if he has an eye-catcher, he will follow the chicken dog to heaven.

Therefore, when Shen Lingjun and the others came over, the shopkeeper was still smiling. But when Shen Lingjun finished speaking, he couldn't laugh.

The shopkeeper's face was full of shock: "What, it's gone?" Why, I personally sent them out early in the morning. ”

The shopkeeper was very impressed, and he was joking with the three of them at the time, if anyone took the martial arts, my inn could be renamed the champion building in the future.

Moreover, he also made a particularly rich breakfast for the three of them for free, which caused the other students to laugh at him. The shopkeeper said to them at the time, if any of you want to be able to enter the top three, my inn covers your annual room and board expenses.

"What about breakfast? No problem, I ate it myself! The shopkeeper had a bitter face, and there was a feeling that he was watching the money fly away from his eyes.

Before leaving, the shopkeeper repeatedly requested: "Lord Shen, you must find those three martial artists!" ”

After a few people went out, Ye Qingzhi also said: "The shopkeeper of this inn is also affectionate and righteous. ”

Zhao Qi chuckled, shook his head and sighed: "Girl, you are still too young." ”

Ye Qingzhi frowned, not knowing what he meant.

Shen Lingjun looked back at the four words of Xinyue Inn, and said to Ye Qingzhi: "He is afraid that the champion building will be in the soup!" ”

When the group left the Joy Inn, a figure suddenly flew in front of them.

Shen Lingjun beckoned and said deliberately: "Yo, Mei Jian, come shopping?" ”

Zhao Qi grabbed Ye Qingzhi and ran away quickly, Luo Cheng and the play looked at each other, how could the general see Mei Jian like a ghost?

Shen Lingjun was also puzzled, looking at Su Musha, what does that mean - what's wrong with Zhao Qi?

Su Musha shook her head, if she didn't know, she wouldn't know it.

Mei Jian glanced at it, retracted her gaze and said to Shen Lingjun: "The emperor has already heard about what happened at the scene of the martial arts test. ”

Shen Lingjun spread his hands, slightly helpless: "I'm looking for it." ”

Mei Jian nodded: "Lord Shen, the scientific examination is related to the world, and I hope that Lord Shen will bother to let all this fall into place as soon as possible." ”

"yes, I see." Shen Lingjun put his hands behind his back and answered.

"I wonder if Lord Shen has any clues?" Umemi asked.

Shen Lingjun tapped the handle of the knife with his fingers, squinted his eyes and chuckled, "Probably there is." ”

After finishing speaking, Shen Lingjun saw that Mei Jian was still not leaving, and tilted his head: "Mei Jian, Lord is still in trouble?" ”

Mei Jian groaned for a while, and said, "Please ask Lord Shen to bring a message to Miss Ye, the illness of Lord Jiadai ......"

Shen Lingjun didn't wait for her to finish speaking, and hurriedly waved his hand: "I can't see it, I can't see it, I'm busy with the case here, Qingzhi is not free, let the imperial doctor see it." "Quickly pull the curtain and leave.

The two of them were some distance away from Mei Jian, and Shen Lingjun said to Su Musha: "No wonder Zhao Qi ran away when he saw Mei Jian!" ”

Mei Jian stood in place and wondered, is this all going on?

The martial arts test suddenly stopped, causing rumors to fill the city.

The teahouse, which is boiling on weekdays, is even more lively, each with its own rhetoric.

It is said that the ghost in the examination room is asking for his life, and this year may not be a peaceful year; It is also said that the three candidates who did not come were possessed by ghosts; There are also those who don't believe in ghosts and gods, so they say that this martial champion is also compared, I think it's all predetermined!

Others asked, what do you say?

The man took a sip of tea, smacked his tongue, and said mysteriously, "Do you know who the last two people were?" ”

"Qin Shaohan, one of the four sons of Luoyang City, Qin Gongzi!" The eyes of the woman with the melon seeds lit up when she said the name.

At first, the man took another sip of tea, and his eyelids lifted: "What about the other person?" ”

"This ...... no one knows."

The man snorted coldly, his face full of mockery: "The other person is called Li Mengbai, I'm afraid you don't know that he is from Dali Temple, right?" ”

Everyone was immediately surprised, and then nodded suddenly in realization: "I see." ”

A scholar shook his head: "It's really mysterious, it's mysterious." ”

Some people also heard a little taste: "You mean, in the end, Wu Zhuangyuan is between the two of them, and the other three candidates will be ...... if they disappear" Speaking of this, this person quickly stopped his mouth, looked around, and lowered his voice and said: "Could it be that someone behind the back did the tricks?" ”

The man threw a few copper plates to make tea money, put his hands on his head and walked out, humming: "I didn't say this, you said it yourself." ”

The rest of the people guessed with each other, so who would win?

In the end, it was unanimously agreed that who can win this year's martial arts champion depends on the infighting between Dali Temple and Taifu, which side is better.

As a result, this originally simple martial arts test was passed around and became a contest between Dali Temple and Taifu in secret.

Shen Lingjun nodded at Su Mu, and the two secretly followed.

It turned out that they had just come out of the inn and happened to pass by the teahouse, and they heard the people inside talking about this martial arts test or something. Shen Lingjun thought about it, the teahouse is the place where the rabble gathers, see what they say, and if there are any clues.

This tea was drunk with a suspicious person.

As the man got through two alleys and came to a secluded place, the two looked at each other and leaped.

"Ahh The man was startled by the sudden burst of two figures, and as soon as his feet stumbled upon each other, he fell to the ground.

Shen Lingjun poked his shoulder with the Great Xia Dragon Sparrow in his hand: "Boy, who are you?" ”

"Who are you, what do you want to do in broad daylight?!" The man was so frightened that he couldn't make a speech.

Su Musha walked over and said coldly: "Why are you lying at the mouth of the teahouse, what is your purpose?" ”

The man got up from the ground, and in broad daylight, he emboldened himself and said, "I, I tell the truth!" I just say what others dare not say, if you dare to do something, I will report to the official! ”

"Reporter?" Shen Lingjun laughed and said, "Hello, go, go now." ”
