Chapter 621: Autumn Charm
"If you want to see Hongzhou, you must gather the trapped dragon piles in the hands of all the district chiefs in the whole country, and when the trapped dragon piles are gathered and placed in formation, an entrance to Hongzhou will appear. ”
The green-robed man didn't dare to delay speaking.
Xu Chen nodded and muttered: "How many district chiefs do you have in this country?"
"There are four district chiefs in the southeast, northwest and northwest, and I am the district head of the eastern district. The green-robed man replied truthfully.
"So you have a trapped dragon stake in your hand?" Xu Chen's eyes lit up slightly.
The green-robed man hesitated for a moment and shook his head with a wry smile: "There is one for the time being, but I'm afraid it will be gone soon." ”
Xu Chen raised his eyebrows: "What?"
The green-robed man paused and said: "In order not to cause bloody turmoil, but also in order to effectively retain national strength, so every year the four district chiefs in the country will conduct a gambling war against the trapped dragon pile, whoever loses will hand over the trapped dragon pile in his hand, for the last person to use, I have made an agreement with the district head of the four districts, and I will make a bet in a few days." ”
"Oh, that means that every year one of you arrives in Hongzhou alone?" asked Xu Chen.
The green-robed man shook his head: "It's just a basic condition to get together the trapped dragon pile, if you want to pass through the door inside, you still need to go through the test, few people have been able to pass the test for many years, and almost all of them are dead." ”
"You're still fighting for all of them?"
"This is the greatest hope of all people in our kingdom, it is an obsession, no one wants to step into the Red State, even if the road ahead is difficult, we do not hesitate. The green-robed man's words were sonorous and powerful.
Xu Chen was silent for a while.
In his understanding, the group seemed to have been deceived...... And deceived for many years.
But it has nothing to do with him.
"Very good, that is, I just need to get these four stakes together now, then you can bring your one, I don't have the time to participate in any bets. Xu Chen stretched out his hand directly.
The green-robed man's face turned worried, and he said eagerly: "I'm afraid this won't work, once the gambling agreement is set, the trapped dragon pile will be sealed by us together, and if you regret it, you will be hostile to everyone, and this gambling is about the coercion of heaven, we swear by our spirits, this trapped dragon pile can't be tampered with......"
Xu Chen frowned, and nodded for a moment: "I don't have to embarrass you, it's not a matter for me to gamble with you, but I can't wait so long." ”
"I can talk to them about arranging it for you as early as possible. The green-robed man spoke respectfully.
Xu Chen nodded: "How fast is the fastest." ”
"Tomorrow?" said the green-robed man.
"Okay, you can do it. ”
Xu Chen let go of the green robe: "Where is the place to bet, I will go directly to you tomorrow." ”
"It's in the center of the city, it's called Sleepy Dragon Terrace, you can just ask anyone, well, what's your name?" said the green-robed man.
"My surname is Xu. ”
"Good. ”
After the green-robed man left, Xu Chen looked at the city below, his face full of contemplation.
Although the letter is strange, but now that he has seen this kingdom and their various deeds, Xu Chen has ruled out the possibility that this is an enemy plan.
Even if Emperor Lin Tian and the others designed, they would not really create such a kingdom, and everyone's acting skills were so realistic.
And this shows that there may really be a Holy Spirit in the Red State, and the news is accurate.
"But the people in this city are a little strange, even believing this obvious lie, can it be true that they are isolated from the world?"
Looking around at the desert environment around him, Xu Chen felt that it might really be caused by isolation from the world.
"But there are also big doubts. ”
As soon as his thoughts turned, Xu Chen flew into the city again, this time he did not go to the Eastern District, but to the Western District, thinking of the strange eyes that everyone looked at him, his heart moved, and he also put on a robe for himself, and he was not so conspicuous when he walked in the crowd.
He spent the morning wandering, listening to the stories and information of the city.
In the afternoon, the crowd suddenly became restless, and rushed to a stone monument in the center, only to see that it was written on the stone tablet: "Because of the appearance of the honorable Lord Xu, this time the dragon stake gambling battle will be carried out early to tomorrow." ”
As soon as the news was released, everyone was in an uproar: "Who is Lord Xu? Why haven't you heard of this person?"
"Why did he have to bet on the battle in advance when he appeared?"
"This person is amazing, he can actually make the gambling war that has lasted for decades be carried out in advance, for the first time!"
Domestic boiling.
Xu Chen quietly looked at the news, nodded with satisfaction, and walked towards a gazebo.
There were exactly four people on the pavilion, three men and one woman, all of them closed their eyes and recuperated, and when they heard the news, they opened their eyes and looked at each other, and a man asked: "What's the matter, who is this Lord Xu, and why does it affect the gambling time?"
"I don't know, but it doesn't matter, it doesn't affect the outcome of the gambling battle. ”
"Well, I don't know which district chief will win this time, if my western district mayor wins, I will be able to take the position of district head next year, I look forward to it. ”
"Although you have a big chance of winning in the western district, the mayor of the southern district should not be underestimated either. ”
"The four of us are candidates for the next district head, isn't it good to say these things at this time?" said the only woman, and at the same time he turned his head to look at Xu Chen who came and said, "Someone is coming." ”
Several people turned their heads, looked at Xu Chen, frowned, and said, "Who are you, looking for us?"
Xu Chen paused and shook his head: "It's okay, I'm just coming up to enjoy the cool." ”
"What?"
The four of them were surprised, they were prospective candidates for district head, and almost no one in the whole country dared to approach them casually except for the district head, and everyone treated them respectfully, and there had never been such a phenomenon of people running over to take advantage of the cold.
"Haha, yes, interesting, I'll allow you to sit down. The woman in one of them suddenly smiled and beckoned Xu Chen to come over.
The three people next to him all frowned: "Not everyone is qualified to sit with us." ”
"Such a guy who doesn't know how to do things is either a madman or a fool. ”
"In my opinion, he is a fool, so get rid of him, and don't sit with us. ”
The three of them said.
The woman who called Xu Chen waved her hand: "It's okay, I think this kid is interesting." ”
"Hmph, we are not as casual as you, people are divided into groups, and we have been with lowly people for a long time, and I am worried that you will also become lowly, so I will leave first. A man got up at once and left directly from the other side of the gazebo.
Immediately afterwards, the other two men sneered: "Dong Teng is right, people are divided into groups, since you are willing to fall, we are not willing to be with you, let's meet again." ”
Both of them got up and left.
The last remaining woman smiled disdainfully: "A bunch of pretentious guys, kid, it's okay, you come and sit, I'll talk to you." ”
Xu Chen stood still in place, glancing at this person with interest, and asked, "What's your name?"
"What? You don't know who I am?!"
The woman was stunned.
"I don't know. Xu Chen nodded.
The surprise in the woman's eyes was even stronger: "It's weird, there are still people in China who don't know me, it's good, my name is Qiu Mei, what's your name?"
