Chapter 14: The Challenge Begins
Three days have arrived, Yongan Street in the south city.
On both sides of the street, on all the buildings, not only red is the core, but red silk hangs. And there are many more officers and soldiers stationed. On the faces of the officers and soldiers, apart from solemnity and solemnity, there was no extra expression. Standing on both sides of the street, it grows into a dragon-like shape, and does not disappear until the bottom of the ring. Don't ask much, these officers and soldiers are all here for one person.
The lord of Dongling Country, Ouyang Xian.
The person with the highest authority in the Dongling Land was already in the realm of the fourth order as early as the age of thirty, and the years flew by, and in the blink of an eye, Ouyang Xian had been the emperor for more than ten years, and it was rumored that he was already in the late stage of the fourth order, and he was about to step into the fifth order.
This kind of cultivator, coupled with the identity on the bright face, can't help but be like the golden signboard, so that people in the city near and far come to see it, wanting to see its style.
In comparison, today's theme, the marriage of the daughter of the city lord Chu Zhen, is a little bleak.
As expected, Xu Jinbiao is the best candidate, although before the competition, Chu Zhen had already said that there are still a few people on the list who have not yet arrived, if he shows up to challenge today, then Xu Jinbiao can only fight, if he loses, then the person who challenges can welcome the beauty.
But the chance of such a thing happening is almost zero, and the game has been formulated. Contestants can only be between eighteen and thirty years old, and Xu Jinbiao is just thirty this year, at the end of the formula.
Xu Jinbiao, who was already cultivating in the late stage of the Seven Spirits Realm, was already very few people who could be greater than his cultivation at that age, and except for a few people, there was no rival who could match him.
Those few people, all of them are demon-level existences, their cultivation speed can be called terrifying, although they are still young, but they already have a great reputation among the younger generations of the three kingdoms of Dongling, Xishuang, and Nanyue.
However, they are already the people of the major sects, how could they come to challenge Xu Jinbiao for the sake of the daughter of a city lord?
Thinking almost with your feet, you can draw conclusions. There may be people who will come to challenge today, but in the end, those people will only lose.
That Xu Jinbiao, although Ouyang Xian and Chu Zhen have not yet announced and recognized it personally, the identity of the future city lord's son-in-law is an indisputable fact.
Therefore, under the ring, where Xu Jinbiao was sitting, there were already people standing around, and most of those people were people with heads and faces in Nancheng, people with soul path cultivators, businessmen with a lot of wealth, and there were also those who had lost to him.
Today's Xu Jinbiao is dressed luxuriously, those faint stubbles have been removed, and his face is full of redness, I don't know if it is because of excitement or because he is stammered by those flattering people around him
In a short time, there were more and more people in the ring who joined in the excitement and gathered. As far as the eye can see, there are so many that the whole street is probably overcrowded.
This kind of landscape is unprecedented. In this kind of weather, it is undoubtedly a lot less cold.
"Look, it's the lord of the castle. In the crowd, those who are slightly shorter are all looking at it with their feet crossed, and at this time, I don't know who shouted loudly, and the words were excited.
Everyone fell silent, and their eyes followed the voice to the back of the crowd.
In the distance, the crowd was agitated, and the next moment, the sea of people split in two, presenting a pedestrian avenue, which was wide enough to accommodate several people to walk.
Chu Zhen was dressed in black and had a serious expression. Several officers and soldiers followed closely behind and walked towards the ring.
Chu Zhen took the lead and quickened his pace.
After he reached the ring, the officers and soldiers stopped at the stage. Chu Zhen cleared his throat, looked around, his face turned pale, and then said in a loud voice: "Everyone, today is the last day for Chu to recruit a son-in-law, who can be recognized, please witness with me." ”
The audience was silent, and everyone knew that Chu Zhen still had something to say.
Sure enough, Chu Zhen then said: "As early as a month ago, I announced to you that I will be coming to Nancheng towards Your Majesty. A few days ago, Your Majesty arrived at my house safely. Chu Zhen said this, put on an inviting posture, looked at the top of the city wall, and said loudly: "Next, everyone will join me to invite Your Majesty." ”
In the audience, the voices of the people were boiling, and the fiery eyes were all cast on the top of the city wall.
Not much. As soon as the city gate opened, several general-looking people, riding war horses, opened the way from the front, and behind them, several attendants carried a golden sedan chair without being biased or slow. Further back, there were countless guards, armed with swords and guns, dressed in battle armor, fanning out to protect the golden lady.
Those people who look like generals can be seen from the aura of slaughter and killing on their bodies that they are all people who have been on the battlefield for a long time. I have never opened my mouth, and just standing there has a sense of awe.
The car stops, and the curtain opens. A middle-aged man bent over.
The man was dressed in casual clothes, holding a paper fan, with thick eyebrows and shiny eyes. The body exudes a superior aura, and that aura only belongs to those who call the shots all year round. Just frowning slightly, it is a feeling of not being angry.
This is the transcendent state lord of Dongling, Ouyang Xian.
Many generals, officers and soldiers, followed Ouyang Xian, and walked under the city wall together, and they stopped. Then, Ouyang Xian led the way and walked in the forefront, and the officers and soldiers stopped here, accompanied by only those generals.
No one spoke, Ouyang Xian and those generals looked around the wall together until they reached the bottom of the city gate.
"Knock"
"Long live Your Majesty!" At this moment, the noise was completely gone, and all living beings knelt down and bowed down, their eyes full of reverence.
Ouyang Xian first waved his hand at Chu Zhen slightly, signaling that there was no need to be so polite. Then, he smiled and said loudly: "Let's all get up, today I am the same as you, just to join in the fun, everyone doesn't need to pay more respects, get up." ”
After everyone got up, Ouyang Xian faced Chu Zhen with his hand, which meant that he would preside over it below.
Chu Zhen understood and said loudly: "Okay, there is no need to say anything more, below." invited the champion of the competition, and Xu Jinbiao came to the stage. ”
Offstage, Xu Jinbiao heard the sound, shook his arrow, and walked forward quickly. After reaching the ring, he looked at Chu Zhen and spoke with the intention of speaking, the latter took the first step, leaned on the former's ear, and asked softly: "Have you thought about it clearly?" I will definitely tell Your Majesty, and he will be in charge of the decision to seek justice from the Purple Pole Sect for you. Do your best to help you find all the things you lost in the house. ”
Xu Jinbiao's body trembled, a look of gratitude appeared on his face, and he whispered: "Then Xu is here to thank Your Majesty and the City Lord first." ”
"Haha. Chu Zhen smiled when he heard this, patted Xu Jinbiao's shoulders, and said with satisfaction: "Don't take it too seriously, you are not his opponent yourself." Since ancient times, those who know the times are junjie. It's just a show. You don't have to go through a lot of work, and you can still let Your Majesty be the master of the first place for you, so it counts. You, still earned. ”
"Yes, yes, yes. Xu Jinbiao clenched his fists and smiled, the bitterness on his face flashed, and then flattered: "What the city lord said is very true, Xu will do his best to cooperate later." ”
"Well, that's good. Seeing Xu Jinbiao like this, Chu Zhen no longer disguised himself, laughed loudly, and then nodded at Ouyang Xian on the city wall, indicating that everything was ready.
Ouyang Xian looked at it and paused slightly.
The actions of the three of them were extremely secretive, and they were never noticed by everyone, but Chu Zhen's undisguised smile made the audience's eyes turn to him from the city wall, and they thought that the latter was happy today, so they smiled sincerely, but they didn't know that a big drama was about to be staged.
Chu Zhen didn't procrastinate anymore, and said proudly: "Xu Jinbiao, the champion of the competition, is already standing on my side, the challenger from now on, can be challenged immediately, Xu Jinbiao must not refuse, if today's challengers are all defeated, then as Chu said last month, the little girl will be married to him, and he will become, my Chu's future son-in-law." ”
"Boom"
The audience was boiling, as if it had been ignited explosives, and exploded. In the body, there is blood stirring.
Chu Zhen looked at it, his face turned straight, and he announced loudly: "Now I will announce that the challenge has officially begun." ”
