Chapter 9: The main characters are the last to appear!
At noon, the sky was clear and the sun was blazing.
A gust of mountain wind blew, and a scorching wave rolled up from the ground, and it was so hot that people couldn't breathe.
At this moment, in the martial arts arena at the outer gate, there are crowds of people, bustling, just like in the vegetable market, which is very lively.
There were only more than 500 miscellaneous disciples of Xuantian Sect, and there were less than 3,000 disciples outside.
Everyone was sweating profusely, but each of them had anticipatory excitement on their faces, unaffected by the heat.
The news of what happened in the early morning at the miscellaneous servant's place had already spread throughout the entire outer gate, and even the outer disciples who were in retreat and cultivation came in an endless stream, wanting to witness this absurd battle of life and death with their own eyes.
"Who will win this time, you say?"
"Nonsense, the acquired challenge is congenital, and anyone with a brain knows it. ”
"Not necessarily, Qin Lang was also the top of the inner door list at the beginning, he has a lot of martial arts attainments and rich experience in actual combat, even if he has just recovered his dantian and broken through the eight-star acquired realm, but he dares to challenge the innate martial artist, then he is definitely confident. ”
"Confidence? I, I think it's conceited, when did you hear that a person in the Acquired Realm was capable of an innate martial artist?"
"That's ...... too"
——
"The Elder is here. ”
In the crowd, I don't know who shouted, and everyone's eyes turned to the entrance of the martial arts arena.
I saw more than a dozen elders from the outer gate dressed in silver robes and with high morality coming.
When everyone saw it, they clasped their hands into fists, bowed their heads one after another, and bowed down.
Walking at the end, the shiny Gou thing was full of spring breeze, strutting his head, and waved to the disciples uncontrollably.
Today he dressed up well, in order to make himself attract attention and usher in a great glory in his life.
After all, this life-and-death battle attracted countless outer disciples, and it was a good opportunity for him to show his face.
The elder of the outer gate walked leisurely to a clearing, Gou Dongxi's gaze swept from the crowd, and he immediately frowned: "He didn't come." ”
"He can't be holding back, is he?" said an elder, a hint of disdain in his tone.
The second elder shook his head: "No, if he dares to challenge openly, then he should keep his promise, and besides, it's not time yet, maybe it's still on the way, maybe we'll wait." ”
With the appearance of a group of outer door elders, the discussion in the entire martial arts arena was much quieter, but there were still whispers spread-
"It seems that this life-and-death battle is related to the face of the Elder Hall, and the elders value it very much?"
", I guess it's just to see how Qin Lang died. ”
"Qin Lang deserves to die. ”
"Hmph, if you want me to say, even if you defeat the day after tomorrow, you can't win. ”
"Hey, hey, look, the inner disciple is here. ”
——
Originally, they were still talking about it, but as an exclamation sounded in the crowd, everyone was startled and looked towards the entrance.
Soon, they saw a group of heroic teenagers dressed in silver and blue border power suits coming one after another.
At the head is a handsome boy with a face like a crown of jade, a dignified appearance, and a folding fan in his hand, and behind him are some high-spirited and pretentious teenagers.
They swayed through the crowd and stopped in the open space twenty meters away from the elders, looking at the disciples and elders of the outer gate with a touch of disdain in their eyes.
It was as if these people couldn't get into their eyes.
"That's Senior Brother Song Zesong, right?"
"Yes, yes, I heard that Senior Brother Song Ze has entered the eighteenth list not long ago, and he is a real powerhouse. ”
"Wow, that's Senior Brother Song Ze, so handsome!"
"I counted it, there were 19 people in total, oh my God, that's a lot. ”
——
With the appearance of the inner disciples, the entire martial arts arena was boiling.
They are just outer disciples of the sect, and they have been running around for cultivation resources all their lives, and some people stay in the sect and do not necessarily have the opportunity to meet the inner disciples in their lifetime.
Moreover, the weakest inner disciples are all in the innate realm, and their overall strength is several times stronger than that of the outer door elders, and even the outer door elders have to bow down when they see some special inner disciples to show respect.
It was a great honor for them to have so many of them at once.
It's just that they haven't been happy for long, and the smiles on their faces suddenly froze.
Because they found that at the back of the inner disciples, a graceful girl appeared.
The girl is 1.65 meters tall, with a graceful body, a light veil, and her black hair is casually draped on the delicate fragrant shoulders, faintly revealing a hint of laziness.
The silver and blue-edged outfit is beautiful, dignified, and still can't hide her soft and slender grace.
She stepped on the jade lotus, the fragrance was gusting, and the whole person looked fresh and refined, like a fairy descending to earth, not stained with dust.
It's just that at this moment, there is a sense of indifference and tranquility in her eyes, as if there is a kind of coldness that rejects people thousands of miles away.
"Could it be that she is the third on the inner list and is known as the gentle and gentle sister of Xuantian Shuangshu?"
As soon as the light gauze girl appeared, the male disciples' breathing suddenly became short, and even the female disciples were ashamed of themselves and couldn't help but take a second look.
For them, the inner disciples don't need to know everything, but they must know several masters of the inner door or a few people with special identities, and Wen Wan is one of them.
Wen Wan, the daughter of the lord of Wenjiabao, is not only as beautiful as a flower, but also both civil and military, and when she entered the inner gate at the age of twelve, she became the existence of the twenty-seventh on the inner list.
In the three years of Xuantian Sect, he has become the third master of the inner gate, the goddess in the minds of all male disciples, and the target of female disciples.
If the inner disciples are the goal they pursue in their lives, then Wen Wan is definitely the Nine Heavens Xuannu, unattainable.
Seeing Wen Wan coming, a trace of admiration flashed in Song Ze's eyes, and he stepped forward a few steps forward and clenched his fists: "Song Ze has seen Senior Sister Wen." ”
"Hmm!"
Wen Wan turned a blind eye, spit out a word lightly, passed by Song Ze, and walked to a corner where the inner disciples were farther away.
The inner disciples and the outer elders bowed their heads and saluted one after another.
The maid on the side covered her mouth and snickered, and hurriedly followed, holding a green oil umbrella to cover Wen Wan's scorching sunshine.
Looking at the gentleness who stood out in the corner, Song Ze, who was treated as empty by the other party, was bored with himself, smiled, and returned to the crowd of inner disciples.
"Come on, come on, bet, Gou things lose one, Qin Lang loses twenty, the opportunity must not be lost, the time will not come again, come and bet." ”
At this moment, a loud shout interrupted everyone's thoughts.
I don't know when, in another corner, a tent was erected, and two warriors dressed as subordinates were busy working.
Behind them, a fat man with a big belly and a simple appearance of about 300 pounds was holding a string of grapes in his left hand and a goblet full of wine in his right hand, squinting his eyes, lying comfortably on a rocking chair, looking very enjoyable.
Gou Shiwu is the most taboo for others to call him by his full name, and his temper just wanted to attack, but after seeing the fat man's appearance clearly, the whole person was like a frosted eggplant, and he froze.
"Hey......" The second elder shook his head and smiled bitterly, without making any moves.
The corners of the elders' eyes twitched, and they stood in place, silent.
"Miss, why is that loser here?" the maid beside Wen Wan was very confused.
"Leave him alone. A trace of incomprehension flashed in the gentle and good-looking eyes, and he said softly.
"Damn, where did you come from, who dared to open a market here. ”
An inner disciple beside Song Ze scolded, and wanted to step forward to teach the fat three a lesson, but was stopped by Song Ze.
The inner disciple turned his head, and there was a hint of inquiry in his puzzled eyes: "What's the matter, senior brother." ”
Song Ze smiled bitterly: "He, you can't afford to mess with him, I can't afford to mess with me, and all the people of the entire Xuantian Sect together can't afford to mess with him." ”
"Huh?"
The inner disciples were dumbfounded.
Xuantian Sect's strength is among the best in the entire Dongzhou, how can it not be compared to a fat man with a fat brain?
But soon calmed down, Song Ze is their leader, usually well-informed, since he said so, there must be a reason for him, and he will definitely not be untargeted.
They didn't ask about the identity and origin of the fat man, but the corner of their eyes still couldn't help but look at the fat man.
The voice of the inner disciple was not loud, but it was not small, and it more or less reached the ears of the outer disciple and the miscellaneous disciples.
"Who is this fat man, I don't seem to have seen it. ”
"Judging by his dress, he doesn't look like a person from our Xuantian Sect, and he shouldn't be a disciple of the family who participated in the outer gate assessment and recruited him. ”
"I see that the elder and Senior Brother Song Ze seem to be very afraid of him, it shouldn't be a disciple of some big force who came down to play, right?"
"Have you ever seen a disciple of a great force like him, with ten fingers and a ring on his neck, and such a thick gold chain around his neck?"
"Damn, don't you say I haven't seen it yet, this shouldn't be some nouveau riche from a poor country, isn't he afraid of being murdered and robbed?"
——
Everyone present was speculating about the identity of the fat man, but at the same time, some disciples were bright-eyed, ready to try.
Feeling countless scorching gazes towards him, the corners of the second elder's mouth twitched, and he was a little helpless: "Feel free today." ”
Of course, he knew what these disciples had in mind.
Although gambling is not a serious crime, it is still a violation of the rules in the sect and must be punished lightly.
Normally, no one dares to violate the rules of the sect, but now that there is such an open opportunity in front of them, how can they miss the opportunity?
The most important thing is that they can't afford to provoke this fat man in Xuantian Sect!
Sure enough, as soon as the Second Elder's words fell, all the disciples spread their feet and rushed to the tent like a ghost crying wolf-
"Register me first, and gamble with Elder Gou for twenty gold coins. ”
"It's only twenty, you're in a hurry, I'll bet on Elder Gou for a hundred. ”
"I'll give three hundred gold coins, and I'll bet on Elder Gou to win. ”
"I'll give out a thousand gold coins, which is my entire net worth, Elder Gou. ”
——
Everyone crowded in front of the tent, gossiping, and surrounded the fat three.
"Wait!"
At this time, an inner disciple wearing a silver and blue-edged strong suit stepped forward and looked at the fat man: "There are 3,000 people today, if one person presses 100, there are 300,000 gold coins, and if you lose one, you will have to pay 600,000, even if your identity is not simple, I don't believe that you can come up with such a large sum of money at one time." ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone looked at the fat man strangely.
An outer disciple can only have 1,200 gold coins a year at most, 600,000 yuan will take 50 years, and it will take at least a few years to change to a larger family.
This fat man is dressed in jewelry, but if he really loses, can he take so much money to lose at once?
"Smack!"
A crisp slap sounded.
The inner disciple covered half of his hot cheeks, and looked at the martial artist dressed in front of him in disbelief: "You dare to beat me?"
The martial artist looked frivolous: "Do you believe that I slaughtered you now, and Xuantian Sect didn't dare to stand up for you?"
The tone was full of domineering, and everyone was stunned.
The inner disciple felt very aggrieved and turned his head to look at Song Ze.
Song Ze's eyelids twitched, he stepped forward quickly, and hugged his fist at the fat man: "Shen Gongzi, this friend of mine is not sensible, please be able to spare him a lot this time." ”
After speaking, he took out a stack of golden tickets from his arms and handed them to the warrior who looked like a subordinate: "I, Song Ze, took the lead in suppressing Elder Gou's 50,000 gold coins. ”
In the market, there are too many gold coins that are too heavy and inconvenient to carry, so they can be exchanged for golden tickets, and the denomination of golden tickets is different, and the value of gold tickets is also different.
There are a thousand, and there are five thousand, and there are ten thousand, and fifty thousand, and one hundred thousand......
There's even a million, a million.
Song Ze turned around and shouted loudly: "I can't disclose the identity and origin of this Shen Gongzi, but I, Song someone, guarantee here that Shen Gongzi has the ability and strength to pay, everyone can bet." ”
After speaking, he didn't even take the gambling ticket, so he pulled the inner disciple who was slapped and left in a hurry.
Receiving Song Ze's assurance, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, but their gaze at the fat man became much more solemn, and they carefully handed over their money, without the loud noise before.
There was a long queue in the line, and everyone was in good order and proceeding in an orderly manner.
It wasn't until two hours later that everyone returned to their place with a gambling ticket in their hands, their eyes foggy, and their minds fantasizing about the picture of a day of getting rich.
Wen Wanyu moved lightly, came to the stall, and took out a stack of golden tickets from her slender waist: "I press Qin Lang, 200,000 gold coins." ”
"Wow......"
The audience was in an uproar.
"Senior Sister Wen Wan thinks too highly of Qin Lang, right?"
"200,000 is enough for a family to eat for several years. ”
"It's a pity, Senior Sister Wenwan's money is going down the drain. ”
"I think Senior Sister Wen Wan is quite confident, it should have been carefully considered, right?"
——
A different color flashed in Song Ze's eyes, thoughtful.
"It seems that you are not favored, huh?" said an elder, teasingly, beside Gou Shishi.
"Humph!"
Gou snorted coldly.
The whole audience pressed him to win, but Wen Wan pressed Qin Lang, which clearly showed that he was not optimistic about him.
But he also knew that Wen Wan's status in Xuantian Sect was higher than him, and it could be said that there was a huge disparity in status, so he could only sulk and vent his dissatisfaction.
"Miss Wen, please take it. The warrior who looked like a subordinate handed Wen Wan a gambling ticket.
Wen Wan took it and turned to leave, leaving a gust of incense.
The entire martial arts arena fell silent for a while.
As time went on and the weather got hotter and hotter, everyone started to get dry mouths and was almost steamed.
The outer disciples and miscellaneous disciples are no better than the inner disciples who can release their true qi and resist the cold and heat.
They are all human beings, and they all have to eat, so they are naturally afraid of the heat, and they simply cannot withstand the long exposure to the sun.
As time went on, more and more people began to complain -
"Why haven't you come yet, shouldn't you have run away?"
"It's been half an hour since the battle of life and death, I guess Qin Lang is scared. ”
"Damn, if this causes us to wait in vain, I guess everyone present will not let him go. ”
"If he wants to hinder Lao Tzu from making money, Lao Tzu will go and kill him. ”
——
The heat was unbearable, and many disciples couldn't stand it anymore, so they began to take off their clothes, revealing their naked upper bodies, which caused some female disciples to roll their eyes.
Of course, there are also some female disciples who show the exquisiteness of their curves while sweating, and they can faintly see the dirty clothes inside, which causes some disciples to whistle frequently and howl wolf.
Looking at the increasingly unbearable scene in front of them, the elders couldn't hold back their faces.
The second elder glanced at Gou Shi: "Go to his residence and ask him to come over quickly, if you want to go on like this, what kind of system will it be?"
Gou Shiwu withdrew his eyes in a daze: "Don't worry, if I want to find him, I have to break one of his legs." ”
So saying, he turned and left.
But at this moment, a domineering voice came into everyone's ears-
"Don't you know that usually the main character is the last to appear?"
