Chapter Forty-Eight: Don't Leave Your Hands Behind

Early in the morning, Zhou Tianshen was shouted by Xiao Xiaodu, and he looked at the squinting young man in front of him with sleepy eyes, and always felt that something was not right, so he shook his head twice to be considered sober.

After washing, he didn't even eat breakfast, and he directly pulled Zhou Tianshen to a corner of the square, where two people were standing, the writer Xu Ke and the black and white immortal.

There was no off-site audience at this recruitment conference, only thirteen participants, Li Xiao, the national master, Li Menglan, the princess of Baisha, Yu Xiaodu, the owner of Penglai Tavern, Xu Ke, the writer, the black and white immortal master of the national teacher, the magpie grandmother of the Zheng family, and the deputy leader of the Fuxi Gang, a total of 20 people.

Zhou Tianshen asked Yu Xiaodu, and said that they could also come to watch the game, plus the four people in the small courtyard, there were only twenty-four people in total.

In the center of the square was a black ring, which was a large black boulder.

There were thirteen contestants standing on both sides of the cobblestone, and Zhou Tianshen was not among them.

The black and white immortal master smiled at Zhou Tianshen and said, "According to the previous plan, twenty-four participated in the competition, but nine people withdrew from the competition last night, so in this way, there will be one person who has a bye, and that person is you." ”

The writer, Xu Ke, accosted him on the side and said, "This matter is really strange, I think it needs to be investigated, how can the princess's recruitment meeting come if you want to, and leave if you want." ”

The black and white immortal master shook his head, signaled him not to make a noise about this matter, and said, "This time the family recruitment meeting was not too public, and the lord and princess didn't want to make a storm in the city because of this matter, if you make such a fuss, it will go against the original intention of the lord of the country." That's fine, they don't want to participate in the competition, and they don't have to worry about leaving. ”

Yu Xiaodu teased, "Anyway, your relationship with the princess didn't run away in one fell swoop, what are you afraid of." Could it be that the princess's reputation would be damaged because of the nine people's farewell? Oh, the princess is really blessed to marry a good husband who thinks about her everywhere. ”

The young man who was poked in the center was red-faced, and he was eager to find a crack in the ground to drill down.

The black and white immortal master spoke for him and said, "Boss, don't make fun of our concubine, he's even thinner than the girl's family." ”

This explanation made Xu Wei even more embarrassed.

Zhou Tianshen stood aside, listening to the two of them ridiculing the young man, and he was really sad for him.

The deputy leader of the Fuxi Gang and the Zheng family's century-old magpie grandmother looked at each other and smiled, not feeling that there was anything wrong with this.

The reason why they came to participate in the recruitment conference was not to marry Wuheguo at all, but to have a longer-term plan, so as long as they had a good relationship with Li Xiao, it would not matter if they married Princess Baisha or not.

But fortunately, the lord of the country came soon and broke the too embarrassing atmosphere, Li Menglan was still dressed up, with a sword and a gun, heroic posture, and women did not let their eyebrows be shaved.

Li Xiao stood in the middle of the crowd, looked at the young people in the center of the square, and said with a smile, "What a group of energetic young people, Menglan, don't blame your father for preparing a dowry for you that is too small, and the scene is not grand enough." ”

Li Menglan smiled nonchalantly, "No." ”

The lord arrives and the race begins.

On the black cobblestone in the center of the square, the figure of the black and white immortal suddenly appeared, he took out a small piece of paper from his sleeve with a serious face, and threw it into the air, the piece of paper turned into a circular enchantment, and a name and a figure appeared on the enchantment, and finally, thirteen names were paired in pairs, Zhou Tianshen had a bye, and the two people who saw their names automatically stood together.

The order of the competition is as follows,

In the first group, Bai Jingqi vs. the king of the world

The second group, and the crown against Han Shichang

The third group is not confused about Emperor Jiu

In the fourth group, Jin Sha killed Zheng Xuan

The fifth group, Ren Tianhao vs. Datuo Nanyin

The sixth group, and the crown against the great yan

Zhou Tianshen had a bye.

The first group of matches is the world king versus Bai Jingqi. The World Concentric Method has always been a mystery to the outside world, and Bai Jingqi was afraid that something would happen, so he kept his back hand, but until he kicked the World King off the round platform, the World King never used the World Concentric Law.

The matches in the second and third groups were just like the first group, and they ended quickly, and they were all one-trick winners, Han Shichang and Jiudi respectively.

The fourth group is Jinsha Kill of Daoxiang County and Zheng Xuan of Xiangyun Kingdom, two people came to the stage, one with a heavy face and murderous spirit, and one with a warm face and slowly soaring.

Since the two of them took the stage, the atmosphere of the entire square has become completely different from before, and the black and white immortal master has also put away his leisure and began to prepare to stop in time, he has a hunch that this game will end soon.

Jin Sha Kill stood opposite Zheng Xuan, and slowly pulled out the two short knives behind him, the handle was made of gold, and two black crows were engraved on it, the two knives were crossed in front of his chest, and a black air flow visible to the naked eye flowed on both sides of Jin Sha Kill, and the black and white immortal master coughed dryly and said, "I announce the start of the game." ”

Zheng Xuan did not have any superfluous movements because of the majestic murderous aura flowing from Jin Sha's body, only to see him take out a handkerchief, the handkerchief was embroidered with a mountain-moving turtle, the turtle's mouth bit a brown bead, he threw the handkerchief into the air, the handkerchief rose against the storm, and instantly covered the entire Kunlun Mountain.

The old man guarding the mountain, who was closing his eyes at the foot of the mountain, opened his eyes and snorted coldly, "If the old man hadn't put away the mountain protection array, it would have been your kid's turn to be here to fight." However, Jinsha killing that girl is not something that a turtle can handle. ”

On the white jade square, the mountain-moving turtle showed a head from the handkerchief, and the bead in its mouth fell on the square, and it turned into a high mountain, the mountain pressed on the cobblestone, the cobblestone was overwhelmed, and it shattered with a bang, and the black and white immortal master's palm was reversed, the palm of the hand was downward, and the black debris floated around, forming another barrier to protect the others.

The black and white immortal master floated in mid-air, with two black stones under his feet.

Looking at the Jin Sha Kill in front of Gao Shan, the black air flow converged in front of her, forming a killing word, the double knives were swung out, the murderous aura was approaching, and the knife light slashed on the high mountain, splashing a piece of debris, other than that, there was no other change.

Zheng Xuan stood on the high mountain, bowing with a hand and holding a white cloud, extremely chic.

A sneer appeared at the corner of Jin Sha's mouth, and the whole person was like a ghost running on the high mountain, and afterimages appeared behind him, and those afterimages did not disappear, but turned into entities, frozen in place. Jin Sha killed very quickly, just when she came to Zheng Xuan, Zheng Xuan took out a handkerchief embroidered with crucian carp on it, the crucian carp held a water bead in its mouth, the crucian carp jumped out of the handkerchief, the water bead floated in the air, a Yangtze River appeared between the two, Jin Sha killed did not make a knife, but jumped down, the Yangtze River water surrounded Zheng Xuan, and the sound of waves was endless.

Jin Sha Kill used the time of descent to recover his strength, and the afterimages that had been transformed into entities through secret methods changed again, and one by one Baizhang Dadao was closely arranged along the action route of Jin Sha Kill on the high mountain.

Jin Sha killed and fell in place, his hands were folded, his mouth called 'shock', the big knife was inserted into the high mountain, and the high mountain summoned by the Dingshan Pearl was directly cut in half, and the high mountain turned into yellow spiritual power and returned to the Dingshan Pearl in the sky, while Zheng Xuan was steadily wrapped in the Yangtze River and floated down from the sky.

Zheng Xuan stepped on the water of the Yangtze River, waved his hand, and a fan condensed by water appeared in his hand, and with a wave of his hand, countless water arrows floated out of the water of the Yangtze River, and shot at Jinsha Kill, who was recovering his qi in situ, Jinsha Kill knelt on one knee, the two golden knives were inserted by her on both sides, two crows flew out from the handle of the knife, flapping their wings, and a black feather wrapped Jinsha Kill, and the water arrow shot on the armor turned into feathers, leaving only a puddle of water.

When the water arrow was exhausted, and the water of the Yangtze River was close to exhaustion, Zheng Xuan put the water fan in front of him, and pierced it with his fingers, and the water droplets rotated along his fingers, and finally converged on his hands.

He urged his spiritual power, the water droplets condensed into ice, an ice glove was placed on his hand, and he threw his fist into a fist, ready to meet the attack of Jinsha Kill.

There was no movement in the black armor, and as time passed, the black and white immortal master stood in the air, frowning and looking at the location where Jin Sha was killed, at the beginning of the game, he calculated a hexagram for this game, and the hexagram clearly pointed to the girl with two swords, and three moves could defeat the enemy and win, but half an hour had passed, why hadn't the battle ended.

The black and white immortal master is very confident that there will be no problem with his hexagram, it must be the girl with two swords, she is forbearing.

Looking at the overall situation, Jin Sha killed a total of two moves, and the son from Xiangyun Kingdom made three moves, as long as Jin Sha kill can make another move to defeat Zheng Xuan, then the hexagram of the black and white immortal master is not wrong.

On the field, Zheng Xuan had already begun to act, only to see his left fist on the top, his right fist on the bottom, his legs in a dripping way towards Jin Sha, every step he took, the ice on the fist gloves would fall off, and those ice adhered to the ground, turning into a trace of cold, Zheng Xuan's feet were full of cold.

The black armor began to move, the feathers floated upward, one by one like a sharp sword, pointing directly at Zheng Xuan's ankles, Jin Sha Kill revealed his true face, both hands clenched the handle of the knife, the two crows took off again, two black tracks crossed around Jin Sha Kill's head, like a double dragon playing with pearls, the blades of the two golden knives had been broken, and the fragments flew upwards along the black trajectory, gradually piecing together the appearance of the knife body, the feathers shot out, nailed to the cold air behind Zheng Xuan, Zheng Xuan was stunned, and hurriedly retreated, but Jin Sha Kill did not give him this opportunity, she instantly came to Zheng Xuan, slapped away Zheng Xuan's hands in front of her with one palm, and slapped his chest with another palm, and the two black tracks smashed directly into the mountain-moving turtle in the sky, and the explosion sounded, and the double knives were inserted on both sides of the turtle's neck, and the handkerchief was poked out of two large holes.

Zheng Xuan was killed by Jin Sha in a close-quarters fight, and he couldn't separate his mind to control the turtle that moved the mountain, and the turtle fought with the black track with the double knife, and he was defeated after a while.

Zheng Xuan gasped, stood in front of Jin Sha Kill, and admitted defeat, "I lost." ”

Jin Sha Kill put away his double knives and said indifferently, "Your magic weapon is good." ”

Jin Sha Kill walked out of the barrier set up by the black and white immortal master with a pale face, and returned to the Golden Crow Hall alone, his residence.

The two black trajectories just now were the killer skills taught to her by Grandpa Tai that Jin Sha killed, and they were originally kept to deal with Li Menglan, but they didn't expect to be used on Zheng Xuan.

After the game, Zheng Xuan returned to his residence in a distraught, ready to pack his luggage and go home, the magpie grandmother appeared at the door and said, "Your father didn't allow you to go home, I didn't expect you to lose to a little girl, he wants you to travel to Zhongzhou again, and when you become a strong man, then go home." ”

Zheng Xuan sat on the bed, recalled what Jin Sha said before he finished the game, and clenched his fists.

The Black and White Immortal Master announced the start of the fifth game.

The participants in the fifth group are Ren Tianhao of the Fenggui family in Daoxiang County and Datuo Nanyin in Jiuxiang County.

The pot-bellied Da Tuonan was holding a big stone with both hands, and Ren Tianhao was dressed in black, with his hands behind his back, wearing a mask on his face, and only a pair of eyes were exposed. The black and white immortal master stood between the two of them, and was about to say that when he started, Da Tuo Nanyin suddenly put the stone on the ground, raised his hand and said, "I abstain." ”

This scene stunned everyone, including Ren Tianhao.

The Black and White Immortal Master became interested for a while, and asked with a smile, "Da Tuo Nanyin, if you want to refuse, I shouldn't stop you, but can I know the reason?"

Da Tuo Nanyin bent down to pick up the stone and said, "Actually, my original intention of coming to the recruitment meeting this time was not to marry Princess Baisha, but to dedicate this stone to the lord of the country. This is what I dug up in the inexhaustible mountain, it is said to be a fragment of a meteorite outside the sky, I don't know the goods, so I want the national teacher to help me see, if the meteorite is alive, I will give it to the lord of the country, if not, I will take it back and put it in my backyard. ”

The black and white immortal master took the stone with a smile, looked at it carefully, and even injected spiritual power into it, but the stone did not react at all, and the country lord Li Xiao also came to the round stone at this time, the black and white immortal master smiled, "This is just an ordinary stone, you better take it back." ”

Li Xiao stopped him, Xu Ke took the stone and held it in his arms, Li Xiao smiled, "Since it was given to me, how can there be any reason to take it home." I declare that Ren Tianhao won this game. ”

Ren Tianhao walked off the round platform without saying a word, and Da Tuo Nanyin came to Li Xiao with a smile and said, "Lord of the Kingdom, I have another reluctant request, that is, I want to touch Princess Baisha's sword." ”

Li Menglan shouted, "What?"

Li Xiao waved her hand to tell her not to be impulsive, and said to Da Tuo Nanyin, "Then since it is her sword, I have to ask her if she agrees." ”

Da Tuonan looked at Li Menglan with an expectant face, Li Menglan was in the mood at this time and really wanted to slap his fat face away, and his face was not good, "No." ”

After that, Li Menglan left without looking back.

Da Tuonan walked off the round platform with a sad face, and Li Xiao and the black and white immortal master looked at each other and smiled.

The sixth group of the game is Dayan vs. Crown, both of them are disciples of the Fuxi Gang, so the battle between the two is also point-to-point, and Crown put away the bamboo sword placed on Dayan's neck, Dayan put away the fist in front of Heguan's chest, and the black and white immortal master announced that He Guan won, and the two walked out of the ring together.

At this point, the first game of the recruitment conference has come to an end.

In the small courtyard behind the Golden Palace, Zhou Tianshen, Dao Wuxiang and Forget Zen sat together, knocking melon seeds, the bell swept the melon seed skin on the side, and held a book in his hand.

Dao Wuxiang drank tea and said, "You kid is really lucky, it's good that we didn't go, otherwise, this wouldn't be in vain." ”

Zhou Tianshen said, "I really want to fight with others to see what level I am." ”

Dao Wuxiang stood up, patted his buttocks, looked at the big vat in the center of the courtyard, and there was a powerful soldier lying in the vat, and said, "There will be a day, or will you fight with him?"

Zhou Tianshen shook his head decisively.

The second round of the promotion match was held in the afternoon, and the seven players who successfully advanced were, namely, Zhou Tianshen of Laohuai Village, Jin Sha Kill of Daoxiang County, Han Shichang of the Sorrowful Banner, Emperor Jiu of the Sorrowful Banner, Fuxi Gang and Guan, Ren Tianhao of Daoxiang County, and Bai Jingqi of Daoxiang County.

The match was like the first game, with lots to decide the opponent and a bye.

In the first group of games, Jin Sha killed Bai Jingqi, and it was another one-sided game, the winner was Jin Sha killed, and this time she didn't even pull out the knife.

In the second group of games, Han Shichang abstained from the game against Emperor Jiu, Han Shichang abstained, and after the two got off the field, Han Shichang did not leave immediately, but said to Emperor Jiu, "This is Master's arrangement, so don't think that I am helping you, no matter who you meet in the future, don't keep your hands." ”

Emperor Jiu was still reluctant to speak, and Han Shichang left with Emperor Jiu.

In the third game, Zhou Tianshen vs. Ren Tianhao.

As Zhou Tianshen said before, the opponent he encountered this time really needs to be dealt with with with real knives and guns.

As soon as the game began, Ren Tianhao summoned two black ghosts, which were called ghosts instead of necromancers because they had no physical body. Although the necromancers are called spirits, it does not mean that they have no substance, at night, they can absorb the yin qi and condense and form, cultivate to a high realm, and can use their supernatural powers to open up a small world for themselves during the day and stabilize their bodies.

Fangyin Small World, Dantian Small World and Supreme Small World are collectively known as Cultivation Small World, all of which are the ultimate expression of the use of spiritual power.

The black ghost stood on both sides of Ren Tianhao, constantly spitting out small black bubbles, and the black bubbles floated into the air, forming a black cloud, the clouds covered Ren Tianhao, Ren Tianhao's body continued to emit black gas, the black gas resonated with the black clouds, and the sound of thunder and lightning could be faintly heard.

In addition to the axe blade and sword, Zhou Tianshen can use the moves now, that is, Baicao Chop and Qingye Fall, as for the Meditation Seal and Honey Sound Transmission are some spells that cannot be used on the battlefield, by the way, there is also a Banshan Seal, which can enhance the caster's physical strength in a short time, and mix it with Qingye Luo and Baicao Chop, but it can be used as a killer weapon, as soon as he thinks of this, Zhou Tianshen has a big head, even if he reaches the realm of Renkui, but if the combat method is too simple, it will still be easy to find a flaw, so as to be broken by a blow.

Why don't you try Jindan to guide thunder, Zhou Tianshen shook his head in his heart, this kind of death, let's wait until I advance to the realm.

Retracting his thoughts, Zhou Tianshen took a step to the left, stretched out his hands, and condensed the sword and axe blades in his palms, cyan and yellow complemented each other, reflecting Zhou Tianshen's troubled face.

Off the field, Yu Xiaodu compared the scene of the two of them, took a sip of wine, and shook his head secretly, Li Xiao stood aside and asked, "Boss, do you have something on your mind?"

Yu Xiaodu put down the wine gourd, arched his hand and said, "Lord, I heard that there is a scripture collection room in the depths of the Golden Palace, which stores the secret books of martial arts and the mind of cultivators, I want to ask you for a favor." ”

Li Xiao smiled, "Are you trying to find a book of mental methods for that Zhou Tianshen?"

Yu Xiaodu nodded and put away his usual hippie smile.

Li Xiao thought for a moment and said, "Yes, but I also have one condition." National teacher, I'll leave it to you here, Xu Ke will come with me for you. ”

Yu Xiaodu and Xu Ke followed Li Xiao out of the square, and on the field, the black and white immortal master understood Li Xiao's mind and no longer took care of his safety.

Zhou Tianshen threw out the axe blade and sword, his body dodged on the round platform like a fallen leaf, Ren Tianhao stood under the black clouds, attacking with the summoned black lightning, and the two black ghosts were looking for Zhou Tianshen's location so that Ren Tianhao could attack.

One hit three, which was extremely unfavorable to Zhou Tianshen, and he needed to get rid of those two ghosts.

He used the green leaves to float into the air, and waved out the grass slash with both hands, and the crescent moon slash collided together in front of Ren Tianhao, producing an explosion, and the ghost on his left quickly rushed out, spitting out black bubbles to form an enchantment, and the one on his right ran behind him, also building a barrier, and then looked at Ren Tianhao, his hands gathered lightning, and the lightning collapsed on the round platform, causing a burst of sparks. But Zhou Tianshen's figure did not appear on any side, just when Ren Tianhao ordered the ghost to get out of the way, the black clouds above his head began to churn, and the thunder in the black clouds was loud, because just now he summoned the thunder and lightning, and the ghost also used some black clouds when building the barrier, so the black clouds above his head gradually thinned.

Zhou Tianshen's figure suddenly came out of the black clouds, he landed in front of Ren Tianhao with scars, his hands pinched, half-mountain seals, and the golden seeds in the dantian continued to burst out with spiritual power, golden yellow filled his whole body, and the spiritual power passed through the black clouds in an attempt to resonate with the nine heavens clouds.

Boom, thunder.

Dao Wuxiang, who was sitting in the small courtyard basking in the sun, stood up suddenly, just now, something strange began to appear in his dantian small world, a pillar of light suddenly shot out of the clouds, shining on the ground, a purple-gold statue began to slowly descend, he recognized the statue, but just when the statue was about to reveal its dignity, the pillar of light disappeared, and everything turned into smoke.

On the round platform in the square, Zhou Tianshen was lying on the ground and fainted, and then looked at Ren Tianhao, standing there intact, except that his face was a little pale.

It turned out that just now, Zhou Tianshen wanted to fight, in a vain attempt to summon Jin Dan to lead the thunder, but his strength was limited, except for some thunder in the sky, there was no other movement, and the final result was that he was beaten by Ren Tianhao and the two ghosts.

Zhou Tianshen was used by the black and white immortal master and passed it to the mountain keeper at the foot of the mountain, which is what Li Xiao meant.

In the three games, Ren Tianhao, Jiudi and Jin Sha won the next game tomorrow.

At the foot of the mountain, the old man guarding the mountain was drinking, looking at the sky, in front of him was the unconscious Zhou Tianshen, he had already diagnosed him according to the black and white immortal master, and there was no major problem with his body, but he was simply knocked unconscious.

When Zhou Tianshen woke up, the old man had just finished drinking the wine given by his old friend, and the old man stretched out his hand and asked Zhou Tianshen for help, "You still have wine on you, and if you hand it over, it will be your medical expenses." ”

Zhou Tianshen was speechless, now anyone can bully him.

Squatting beside the old man, Zhou Tianshen and the old man drank slowly, and when they were called to the national hall again, it was already the afternoon of the next day, and the game was over by then.

The third game was Jiudi against the crown, and Jin Sha killed Ren Tianhao.

Just before the start of the game, a letter suddenly came from Ren Tianhao and Jin Sha's home, and after the two saw the letter, they hurried home. Jiudi and Heguan were both injured and could no longer participate in the competition. Therefore, there is no winner in this recruitment meeting, so the marriage of Princess Baisha is up to her.

Outside the city, Jin Sha Kill sat on a red horse, and Li Menglan wore a long sword at her waist to see her off, this time she didn't bring a gun, because the spear was broken by Jin Sha Kill.

Jin Sha Kill said, "I'm sorry, I broke your gun, and when I get home, I'll order someone to build one, and I'll return it to you soon." ”

Li Menglan shook his head and said, "Forget it, I didn't choose a gun, the reason why I used a gun is because of him." ”

Jin Sha Kill guessed, "Xu Ke, I have heard about him, I wish you happiness." ”

Li Menglan smiled and nodded, the red horse ran forward, Jin Sha Kill turned his back to Li Menglan and said, "We will meet again soon." ”

Li Menglan believed what she said.

In the national hall, Li Xiao and Yu Xiao were sitting together, and Yu Xiao did not drink, but held a map and was meditating.

Li Xiao said, "They are sending a message now, it shouldn't be because they want to increase the price." ”

The words on the map were very small, and Yu Xiaodu tried to look at them with wide eyes, and said, "After all, this is the first time they have done this kind of thing, it is normal not to worry, and the temporary price increase is even more understandable, just so that they can also participate in this matter, the treasury of Wuhe Country has been emptied, are you sure you don't need my help?"

Li Xiao said with a smile, "Even if Wuhe Guo has no money, I can't ask you for help anymore, and I can't repay your favor for the thing my father asked you to help with before." ”

Yu Xiaodu put down the map and said, "Don't you have a daughter?" ”

Li Xiao said with a solemn face, "If it's a son, I'm afraid this matter is really not easy to do." Okay, here's the person you chose, I'm leaving. ”

Yu Xiaodu stopped Li Xiao, took out a jade pendant from his arms, the jade pendant was engraved with the word 'Penglai', handed the jade pendant to Li Xiao and said, "If you really don't want to come to the tavern, go to Laohuai Village, where you will be arranged with an acre of thin fields and a hut." ”

Li Xiao took the jade pendant and said with a smile, "That's enough." ”

At the gate of the national hall, the black and white immortal master stood respectfully outside the door, and when he saw Li Xiao coming out, he did not bow and salute, but looked ahead with an indifferent face, and said, "You shouldn't hide it from me." ”

Li Xiao said helplessly, "If I tell you, you won't agree." ”

The black and white immortal master said angrily, "Menglan is my apprentice, don't I, the master, have the right to know the truth of the matter?"

Li Xiao didn't know how to answer.

The black and white immortal master waved his sleeves and left.

Li Xiao walked down the mountain, where there were mountain guards waiting.
