Chapter Twenty-Eight: Lei Leopard, Lei Hong
At noon on the fourth day, the county town of Sanno County performed martial arts, this martial arts field is located in a square square in the middle of the county, the ground built of bluestone is about dozens of zhang square, and there is a three-foot fence on the side of the field.
When Chen Xiao and others arrived, there were already crowds of people outside the martial arts arena, and the atmosphere was very warm.
All the people of Shanwang County know that today is the day of the Four Clans Conference, and they came early to occupy a place to see the excitement, and even the small families around the county town have sent their clansmen to watch the battle, and the ownership of the head of the four clans is also a very important event for these people.
Chen Xiao looked into the martial arts arena, and saw that there was a stone platform on the left side of the square, the platform was two feet high, and the four stone chairs on it were very wide, and the other three patriarchs had arrived with their respective disciples and heirs at this time.
The first stone chair was empty, and it should have been reserved for the position of the Chen family, the head of the previous four clans.
On the second stone chair sat a red-haired man about forty years old, very tall and mighty, dressed in a fiery red sword sleeve light suit, wearing a black cloak, a pair of leopard eyes as big as copper bells, and broad lips, not angry and arrogant.
Behind him stood two red-haired teenagers, seventeen or eighteen years old, with a look and figure that were seven or eight points similar to the big man.
On the third stone chair sat a middle-aged scribe dressed as a scholar, handsome, but with slightly thin lips and narrow eyes that were more white and less black, giving people a false sense of coldness, and behind him stood two teenagers.
At the end, on the stone chair was a middle-aged beautiful woman, in her thirties, with a dignified demeanor, but the corners of her eyes and eyebrows showed a bit of heroism, and there were two girls standing behind her.
Chen Heyang smiled softly at Chen: "That red-haired person is Lei Wanjun, the head of the Lei family, whose strength is at the peak of the Eightfold Essence Yuan Realm, and the scholar is dressed as Yelu Wenshan, the head of the Yelu family, and his strength is similar to Lei Wanjun, and that woman is Liang Qingchen, the patriarch of the Liang family, and she is also in the Eightfold Essence Yuan Realm, but she is a step worse than the other two." ”
Chen Xiao nodded and withdrew his gaze. Lei Wanjun saw that Chen Heyang had arrived, and he laughed strangely: "Patriarch Chen has such a big shelf, are you afraid that Chen Lin will lose and be embarrassed." ”
Chen Heyang frowned, and he refused to show weakness in his mouth: "It is unknown who killed the deer, and the Thunder Patriarch is too worried." ”
After that, he instructed Chen Lin Chen to smile a few words, and pulled them up to the stone platform. Black and white Wuli and the Xiao family brothers found a place near the stone platform outside the field to watch the battle.
Chen Xiao stood behind the stone chair and waited quietly, and when Yelu Wenshan saw the young man's face, he smiled and said, "Where did Patriarch Chen find the dolls to make up the numbers, I haven't seen them before." ”
Chen Heyang glanced at him coldly and said, "This is my second son Chen Xiao, this time I brought him to meet these young heroes." ”
Yelu Wenshan smiled: "There are no eyes in the fists and feet, so it's good for the noble son not to cry for a while." After that, he laughed at the same time as Lei Wanjun. Chen Heyang saw that he was unreasonable, but he stopped talking, closed his eyes and went to recuperate.
Seeing that Chen Xiao was indifferent, Chen Lin stepped forward and said with a smile: "Brother Xiao, although my father didn't tell me how strong your strength is, your cultivation time is still short, be careful for a while, don't hurt your body." His tone seemed sincere, but there was a hint of cruelty in his eyes.
Chen Xiao nodded slightly and said, "What Brother Chen said is very true, don't hurt your body. ”
Chen Lin said secretly: I don't know what my father thinks in his heart, isn't it embarrassing to arrange Chen Xiao to play, and when he is humiliated, his status will be even more humiliated, and it will be convenient for me to clean up their mother and son in the future.
After a while, an old man who looked like a master dressed up walked up in the field, and when the surroundings were a little quieter, the old man said loudly: "I am ordered by the county lord to preside over this four-clan conference, not much to say, there are eight contestants this time, each family sends two people, and the opponent is determined by drawing lots, and people of the same clan cannot meet before the finals." ”
After that, he took a tray from the hands of the guards under the stage, and there were four signs in this tray, face down, and the master sent the tray to the stone platform, and the four patriarchs drew lots.
Chen Heyang picked up a sign casually, turned it over and saw that there were only two numbers on it: two six, before he could speak, Lei Wanjun raised the sign in his hand and said: "It's really unfortunate that the son of Patriarch Chen actually faced off against my two children, I hope it won't be wiped out." ”
Chen Heyang saw that the brand in his hand also had two numbers: one five, and said lightly: "Each other." ”
Lei Wanjun snorted coldly, and whispered to the two people behind him: "Dare to be stubborn when you die, you don't have to keep your hands for a while, although the competition can't take the other party's life, it is okay to break tendons and fractures." ”
The two teenagers nodded, turned their heads to look at Chen Xiao and Chen Lin, their eyes full of banter.
Chen Lin was going to compete with the Lei brothers in the first game, and he was nervous, and when he saw that the two brothers were not good-looking, he suddenly became at a loss.
Chen Xiao only glanced at it lightly before retracting his gaze and waiting for the competition to begin.
After the draw, the master did not procrastinate, and shouted loudly: "The first competition, Chen Lin of the Chen family, Lei Leopard of the Lei family." ”
A young man walked out behind Lei Wanjun and jumped into the martial arts arena with his head held high. Chen Lin knew that he couldn't hide, and he refused to show weakness, so he came to the martial arts arena to protect the vital parts with both hands, as if he was facing a great enemy.
Chen Heyang smiled at Chen behind him: "Lei Bao is the eldest son of the Lei family, he was already the strength of the half-step Yuan Realm a few months ago, and he is also the biggest favorite for the championship of this conference. ”
Chen Xiao nodded, his eyes looked at the field, at this time the master had announced the start of the game, Chen Lin was constantly swimming around the thunder leopard, hoping to find a chance to win with one blow.
Lei Leopard didn't move, as if he had never seen Chen Lin's opponent. After he turned around for a long time, the people in the audience laughed again and again, and the coaxing came and went.
Chen Lin's face was red, and seeing that Lei Leopard still didn't move, he suddenly attacked behind him and attacked Lei Leopard's vest with a punch. When the fist was only three inches away from the back of the thunder leopard, seeing that the thunder leopard still did not move, he couldn't help but be secretly happy, and without hesitation at the moment, he condensed the vitality of his whole body into the fist and smashed it into the thunder leopard's vest.
But at this moment, Lei Leopard moved, only to see him take a step forward gently, turn around and swing out a punch, hitting Chen Lin's fist upright, and his momentum skyrocketed instantly.
"Transformation Yuan Realm!" Chen Xiao shook his head, knowing that the competition had already achieved results.
I only heard a miserable cry in the field, and with the sound of broken bones, Chen Lin's body flew up more than three feet high, and he fell heavily to the ground, grazing the ground and rolling three or four feet away before stopping, lying there like a dead dog.
Seeing this, Chen Heyang flew up and snatched him in his arms, turned over and returned to the stone platform, took out a yellow pill from the storage ring and stuffed it into Chen Lin's mouth, and a medical officer sent by the county government hurriedly ran to treat his injuries.
After a while, the medical officer clasped his fists and said to Chen Heyang: "Chen Gongzi's life is worry-free, but I am afraid that the fracture of his right arm will take some time." ”
Chen Heyang was relieved to hear that Chen Lin's life was worry-free, but he was seriously injured, and he was afraid that it would be difficult to recover in a few months, so he couldn't help but look at the Lei father and son coldly.
At this time, Lei Bao had already returned to the stone chair, and Lei Wanjun pretended to reproach: "You kid doesn't have a serious start, don't you make amends to Patriarch Chen soon!"
Lei Bao smiled, hugged Chen Heyang and said: "Don't blame Patriarch Chen, I thought that Chen Lin was quite strong, so I used a little strength, I didn't expect him to be so fragile, I will definitely show mercy next time." After speaking, Chen Heyang couldn't speak, sneered twice, turned around and went back to the back of the stone chair.
Chen Heyang was full of anger, glared at the Lei father and son fiercely, sat back on the stone chair, and ordered his subordinates to carry Chen Lin home to recuperate.
Chen Heyang slowly regained his composure after a while, and said to Chen with a low smile: "The Lei family deliberately targeted us this time, presumably with other plans, after a while, if you feel defeated, admit defeat, you are still young, even if you admit defeat, no one will laugh at you." ”
"Take the initiative to admit defeat. I'm afraid they are not worthy. Chen Xiao said secretly in his heart.
At this time, the master's shout came from the field again: "In the first competition, the Lei family Lei Leopard wins! ”
Hearing this, Chen Xiao jumped down from the stone platform and slowly came to the field, where another young man from the Lei family was already standing opposite him. Lei Hong is one year younger than Lei Leopard, although his strength is not as good as his brother, his mind is vicious and vicious, but he is far above Lei Leopard.
Seeing that Chen Xiao was young, he secretly sneered in his heart, but his expression was very sincere: "This little brother, his strength is low, he has only learned a little skin, he is definitely not the opponent of the little brother, I have a proposal, what do you think?"
Chen Xiao saw that his tone was sincere, but his eyes flashed with coldness, and he also smiled secretly in his heart, and said as harmless to humans and animals: "Brother Lei, what is your proposal?"
Lei Hong said: "I want to take the initiative to admit defeat but I am afraid that my father will punish me, and I am afraid that my little brother will hurt me if he shoots too hard." ”
He pondered for a moment and said: "It's better to be like this, for a while, the little brother will just punch me for a while, and I won't force you to hit, so that I will lose this battle, and I will not be injured and will not lose my father's face, do you think it is good?"
Chen Xiao nodded and said, "Okay! With that, he casually took a few steps and came to Lei Hong, stretched out his right hand and gently punched Lei Hong in the chest.
Lei Hong watched the fist attack on him blankly, made an expression of willingness to lose and stood still, when Chen Xiao's fist was only two feet away from him, suddenly his eyes were fierce, the vitality in his body exploded, a punch came, the vitality on the fist spitted, the strong wind rushed directly to Chen Xiao, and he shouted in his mouth: "One breath to break the mountain fist."
Although the people in the audience don't understand the difference between realms, they can also see that this Lei Hong's momentum is much stronger than Chen Xiao, it seems that this Chen family's doll is not good, and even timid people have covered their eyes.
"Half-step Transformation Yuan Realm!" The people didn't understand, but the people of the various families watching the battle here could see the strength of this Cao Hong at once, they all shook their heads and sighed, looking at Chen Heyang on the stone platform with a look of pity, and some of their eyes were mixed with schadenfreude.
Only Black and White Wuli and Xiao Qiang knew the details of Chen Xiao, and stood there watching quietly.
