Chapter 150: Envy and Last Resort
"There are two things to say today."
Grandma stood on the high platform of the square and announced loudly that the supervisors of each room and their disciples were waiting to listen.
"First, through the primary selection, fifty outstanding disciples have been selected. Tomorrow's final round of selection will determine the 30 disciples who will finally participate in the trial. β
On the square, most of the fifty disciples who had been qualified for the selection showed excitement and pride, and their eyes were full of anticipation and high spirits.
"The second thing...... It's a great event. β
Grandma glanced at Tang Xiao in the audience and said loudly: "Xiao'er and Feiyan's wedding date has been set, and the marriage will be completed in the spring next year." β
As soon as these words came out, everyone was surprised, and then everyone hugged Tang Xiao and Tang Feiyan and congratulated the two of them.
Tang Xiao tried hard to squeeze out a smile, but the smile was very stiff, and the reluctant color floated on his face, and Tang Feiyan, who was one step away from him, was overjoyed, and thanked him, peeking at Tang Xiao several times, with irrepressible love in his eyes.
However, unlike everyone who gathered around Daoxi, Hua Rou, Mu Junwu, Tang Xiao, and Tang Lin did not move, they stood in a row with complicated expressions.
"Didn't they still quarrel half a month ago?" Tang Liuliang's face was full of doubts: "Why are you suddenly going to get married?" β
Hua Rou frowned slightly when she heard this, and looked at Tang Xiao with a look in her eyes that seemed to be puzzled and distressed.
Mu Junwu glanced at Hua Rou, his brows furrowed slightly.
"Brother Lone, what do you say is going on?" Tang Liuliang turned his head to ask Tang Lone, and Tang Lone said expressionlessly, "I don't know." β
"Mu Junwu, do you know?" Tang Liuliang went to harass Mu Junwu again.
Mu Junwu glanced at his grandmother on the high platform: "If you have a picture, you must give up." β
"Figure what? What to give? Tang Liuliang scratched his head: "Why can't I understand?" β
Mu Junwu didn't answer Tang Liuliang, but instead reached out and grabbed Hua Rou's wrist and took her out of the crowd, away from the boiling water.
"Brother Lonely, what do you mean by Mu Junwu's words?" Tang Liuliang was at a loss, but Tang Liang shook his head, still maintaining his usual silence.
In the crowd, Tang Xiao, who was struggling to deal with Daohe's disciples, inadvertently swept his eyes into the distance, and after he saw Mu Junwu's back pulling Hua Rou away, the stiff smile on his face gradually disappeared, leaving only bitterness.
At this time, Tang Feiyan, who had been paying attention to his affection, naturally captured this change, she followed his line of sight, and after seeing the pair of distant figures, the smile on her face instantly froze.
β¦β¦
Most of the disciples gathered in the square, and there were few people walking around the courtyard.
Mu Junwu dragged Hua Rou and walked silently all the way, Hua Rou followed behind him, looked at his back, and after hesitating, he finally opened his mouth.
"Brother Mu, will you marry someone you don't like?"
Mu Junwu's footsteps stopped, and he looked back at Hua Rou with some surprise: "Why...... So ask? β
Hua Rou twisted her mouth: "Senior Brother Tang Xiao doesn't seem to be happy. β
Mu Junwu frowned lightly and stared at Hua Rou: "You care about him very much!" β
Hua Rou was immersed in her worries, and she didn't notice the emotions mixed in Mu Junwu's words at all, she lowered her head and poured out to herself:
"Senior Brother Tang Xiao has helped me many times, I hope he is happy and happy, not ......"
She couldn't go on, shook her head and sighed, with a look of not understanding but worrying about the other party, which made Mu Junwu unhappy: "Between gain and loss, he has a choice, you don't have to worry about him." β
"But it's obviously an unhappy thing, why do you force yourself to do it?" Hua Rou looked up at Mu Junwu: "I don't understand." β
"Because sometimes it's hard to say 'no.'"
Hua Rou blinked suspiciously: "Is it difficult?" β
Mu Junwu smiled lightly, revealing a hint of sighing: "When you have enough ability, it's very simple, otherwise, if you can't escape control, it will naturally be difficult, difficult." β
Hua Rou lowered her head and pondered when she heard this, and Mu Junwu looked at her appearance and added softly: "In this world, there are too many last resorts. β
β¦β¦
In the square, Daoga's disciples scattered in all directions, and the sound of discussion wafted everywhere.
"Unexpectedly, Tang Feiyan is really going to become the wife of the door master!"
"It's really funny, it's clear that Senior Brother Tang Xiao didn't take her seriously."
"That's right, that's right! I have seen many times that Senior Brother Tang Xiao didn't pay attention to her at all, she stuck it up, and when she turned her head and bragged to us about how much her Brother Xiao loved her......"
"If it weren't for the prestige of her father, who would give her face to play with her!"
"Anyway? People still have achieved positive results. β
"Tsk, I don't know how many admirers of Senior Brother Tang Xiao are going to hide in the bed and cry tonight!"
"Hey, you say, will Senior Brother Tang Xiao really like her? Otherwise, how could it be agreed? β
"No way, no way! Senior Brother Tang Xiao, such a decent person would not fall in love with Tang Feiyan's kind of person! β
"Yes, yes, I agree!"
Everyone was talking, laughing and exploring together, Tang Xiao obviously heard it clearly, but he turned a deaf ear, just lowered his head and walked forward, as for Tang Feiyan, he didn't care about her mood at all at this time.
He walked forward with his head down in frustration, but a figure stood in his way.
"Why did you get engaged to Tang Feiyan?"
Tang Xiao gritted his teeth and looked at Tang Liuliang standing in front of him, and said nothing.
"Your vision isn't really that bad, is it?"
"Don't talk about it." He spat out three words, bitterness overflowing his heart.
"Why can't I say that you are the person I care about the most besides Brother Lone."
Tang Xiao stared at Tang Liuliang when he heard this: "What about Mu Junwu?" β
Tang Liuliang was stunned for a moment, and then clapped his legs in a trance: "Oops! Look at my memory, I changed my words: You are Brother Lone, Mu Junwu, by the way, and the person I care about the most except Hua Rou. β
Ten thousand arrows pierce the heart.
It turned out that he had inadvertently fallen behind a few people.
"Let's fight!"
"Huh?" Tang Liuliang was stunned, but Tang Xiao didn't give him a chance to express his position at all, grabbed him and rushed towards the bamboo forest.
β¦β¦
With a back fall, Tang Liu fell to the ground on his back, and before he could grin, Tang Xiao had already beckoned to him: "Come again!" β
"Come on!" Tang Liuliang quickly got up and rushed towards Tang Xiao, but after a few moves, he was thrown to the ground again.
"Come again!"
Tang Liuliang got up and continued to fight with Tang Xiao, but after three moves, he was grabbed and pressed to the ground by Tang Xiao's backhand, Tang Xiao raised his fist and smashed it, Tang Liu's heart screamed bad luck, closed his eyes and waited for the pain.
However, he heard a "thump" sound, but he didn't feel a trace of pain.
Tang Liuliang opened one eye in surprise, and what he saw was Tang Xiao's fist struggling to smash on the ground next to his head!
Punch after punch, each blow was extraordinarily hard, as if it was going to crush him.
Tang Liuliang's eyes widened in surprise, and his mouth grinned again and againβthis fist was about to be smashed on his head, but he was afraid that he would be smashed into tofu scum.
Tang Xiao was venting, and every punch was venting the suppressed anger in his heart.
After more than a dozen punches, he finally stopped punching the ground, let go of Tang Liuliang, and the person sat down on the ground in a dejected manner, gasping for breath.
At this moment, his fist was bleeding, but there was no pain on his face, only decadence.
"Phew!" Tang Liuliang spat out the dust that had splashed into his mouth, and after breathing a sigh of relief, he sat up and stared at Tang Xiao: "What's wrong with you?" It's so hot! β
Tang Xiao looked at Tang Liuliang, and his voice was cold: "Do you know? I envy you. β
