Chapter 37 Quota (2)
The woman in red stood on the stage, smiling and gesturing to the audience, and after a while, the woman spoke, her voice was crisp, resounding throughout the entire pavilion.
"It's a guest from afar, Dai Shuang first welcomes you to Meiwu City for my young lady, I hope you have a good time tonight. This time, the Treasure Hunt Conference fell in Meiwu City, and also fell on the building outside our building, presumably everyone was waiting for this moment. According to the old rules, the first item of the evening is to discuss the allocation of places this time. It used to be customary to give you fifty places, but..."
Speaking of this, the woman in red named Dai Shuang paused slightly, looked at the people under the seat with a smile, and everyone followed the heartstrings.
"The big guys above don't seem to be willing to give up so many places, so the number of places released this time has been compressed to thirty, I don't know, do you have any opinions?"
Although the woman was asking, it was clear from the non-committal beak in her tone that she was more like telling everyone a fact, nothing more.
After all, throwing a stone into the water will cause ripples, as soon as Dai Shuang finished speaking, the audience was like a fried pot, and the mixed voices suddenly rose one after another, and the noisy shouting and scolding were endless, and there was a tendency to intensify.
"Uncle, originally there were only 50 places in our group, but now it's good, we directly cut off a small half, which makes us how to divide it. Damn, I look down on people so much, Lao Tzu was the first to not agree? ”
Offstage, a big man with thick eyebrows in front of him shouted loudly to the stage with a big knife in his hand. When he said these words, he squinted his eyes and looked at the so-called big people on the second floor, and his tone was quite arrogant, the purpose was naturally to make them notice.
In a private room on the second floor, a young man dressed in brocade stood in front of the window.
"Who is he?" The boy in brocade didn't turn around, and asked casually. He looked down at the big man who dared to take the lead with some indifference, his eyes were full of disdain, and there seemed to be a little pity.
After he finished speaking, an old servant stood up from behind him, leaned over and said respectfully: "Back to Your Highness, that is Ding Daoyi, the master of the Dao Gate of Xiangyuan City." ”
"Oh? The man who dominates the knife gate! Hasn't it been wiped out by the ground network? How could he still be standing here? ”
The old servant smiled and said: "Your Highness, we can't destroy all the sects on the rivers and lakes, and the ground network is just a slight punishment and let them hand over the sect's peerless return to the sea knife." ”
Hearing the old servant's words, the corners of the boy's mouth in brocade were more playful, and when he looked at Ding Daoyi again, his eyes were full of pity. He knew what the old servant meant by a little punishment, and his pity for the other party came from this. In his opinion, this guy named Ding Daoyi was just dying at this time, and he didn't hesitate to die.
After a moment of noise in the audience, on the stage, the girl named Daishuang spoke again: "You might as well be quiet first. ”
Her voice is not loud, but she seems to have the ability to penetrate everything. In the eyes of these experts, everyone knows that the woman is not a weak girl with fists and legs, but a real martial arts master. Just now, she made the roar of the lion of the authentic Buddhism, and without deep internal strength, she couldn't exert that effect. But no one is curious about why such an ordinary woman is so powerful, the reason is very simple, three words, Louwailou.
As Daishuang spoke, the audience turned off again, and everyone's eyes fell on her again. Everyone has questions and expectations, probably expecting some kind of turnaround.
Seeing that it was quiet, Dai Shuang put on a pleasing smile and said softly: "Don't panic, adults, adults will not take advantage of everyone for no reason, as long as you are willing to give up these twenty places, whether it is martial arts, exercises, pills, weapons, everything, you will definitely be able to give everyone a satisfactory compensation." ”
This seems to be an extremely lucrative deal, some people are obviously moved by Dai Shuang's words, because they don't have much hope for such a treasure grab, which of the high-ranking factions before them is not a behemoth-like existence, and the treasure they have to take may not be useful, so instead of working in vain, they prefer to exchange it for some tangible benefits.
But most people are still sober-minded and short-sighted. They came here for a big opportunity, and once they turned over, maybe they would have a place on the second floor next time.
Two voices filled the audience, and there was a lot of discussion.
After some exchange, a man in a light blue robe stood up from the crowd. He first motioned to everyone to be quiet very politely, and then slowly spoke to the stage: "Dai girl, compared to those things outside the body, we are more willing to fight for our own great future. So please tell the adults above on behalf of the girl that we want a quota. ”
The last five words, what the man said, are categorical and unquestionable. His voice was not loud, but it was heard very clearly everywhere in the pavilion, and it was as casual and unintentional as Fang Caishuang.
The white feather hanging from the side of the man's robe was particularly conspicuous, and the shape was probably from the tail feathers of some kind of bird.
On the pavilion, the old servant standing behind the man wanted to explain the identity of this person, but the brocade-clothed man in front of him took a step forward and said, "The people of Xindu Yanquetai, Kong Lao, am I right?" ”
The old servant smiled when he heard this: "Your Highness guessed correctly, he is the current head of Yanque Terrace, He Zhangzhi." This person's cultivation is one level higher than that Ding Daoyi just now, and he has reached the Great Perfection of the Returning Yuan Realm, and he is only one step away from being able to enter the Grandmaster Realm. And he is kind and humble on weekdays, so he has a bit of prestige in the rivers and lakes. ”
Hearing this, the boy in brocade also smiled, but he didn't care about the prestige of the old servant. "Great Perfection, I'm afraid there are not a few of these people downstairs."
The old servant raised his head slightly and glanced at the back of His Highness in front of the window, then lowered his head and said, "I all want to take advantage of this opportunity to impact the Grandmaster Realm, the meaning of that realm for a martial artist is too great, and no one can stand such a temptation." ”
"Aren't they afraid of death?"
"I can't help them."
After saying that, both of them laughed and understood each other.
The boy in brocade looked at the quarrel between the people downstairs because of the quota allocation, and after a while, he shook his head and felt bored and stopped paying attention. In the private room, in addition to him and the old servant, there were also a man and a woman sitting at the round table in the center. At this time, the woman was serving the man to drink, and the man occasionally said some meat words, and his hands wandered dishonestly on the woman's body, which made the woman's eyes like silk and coquettish.
The young man in brocade turned his head to look at the drunken man at the table and said, "Brother Wu, has the young man who clashed with you two days ago disposed of?" ”
The man who was called Brother Wu was Yuan Wu, who had a conflict with Shen Guo two days ago, and the person who questioned him was the elder brother of his mother's compatriot, Yuan Wei, the twelfth prince of Great Wei. Hearing the words, Yuan Wu's hand stopped, but he still held the woman with one hand. He turned his head to look at Yuan Wei and said angrily: "Brother, who did you find, what impermanence is asking for your life, the name is big, it is just four wastes, let them kill a kid who doesn't know the height of the sky, went to that alley twice, the first time he was splashed with dung, and he came back with a stinking smell; The second time, he was directly beaten back, and said that there were powerful people in the alley. ”
After Yuan Wu finished speaking, Yuan Wei glanced at the old servant beside him with some surprise, as if he couldn't believe it.
For the impermanence of the four people, he knows best that the famous hob customers on the rivers and lakes have done a lot of murder and overkill, and they rarely missed. And as a dark force under him, he has contributed a lot, and he once assassinated a martial artist who has been famous in the rivers and lakes for a long time, so even the old man next to him recognizes the strength of several people.
The old servant understood and knew the doubts in his Highness's heart, so he spoke: "Your Highness, the strength of the impermanence of the four is not low, and it should not be difficult to deal with a kid from the Guiyuan Realm. Maybe it's really like they say, in that alley, there are masters. ”
Yuan Wei didn't dwell on whether there was really a master in the alley, he looked at Yuan Wu and asked again, "Have they seen the appearance of the person who shot clearly?" ”
Yuan Wu shook his head: "They said there was more than one, it seemed like there were four or five, and I don't know where it came out of nowhere." ”
"Four or five?" Yuan Wei doubted.
"Well, that's what they say, in my opinion, they're too useless to even do such a small thing. But brother, did I see that man here before? ”
After hearing Yuan Wu's words, Yuan Wei was a little surprised: "Oh? See that teenager here? ”
"Well, the slut who was with him that day was there, and they were led up to the second floor."
Hearing that they had gone up to the second floor, Yuan Wei was about to blurt out the words for a moment, and it seemed that he suddenly had a consideration for the failure of the impermanence to ask for his life.
The old servant also guessed some reasons, and said: "Your Highness, according to the news from the spies, the young man's name is Shen Kuang, and he lives in the red mud alley in the south of Meiwu City, and there is nothing special about his identity, could it be that he is from a family above?" ”
Yuan Wei thought for a moment and felt that the old servant's words were very reasonable, so he looked at Yuan Wu and asked, "Did you see who brought them up?" ”
Yuan Wu saw that his brother's expression was solemn, and he was a little confused, so he immediately replied: "Okay... It was as if the maid had brought them up. ”
Yuan Wei and the old servant looked at each other.
"Your Highness, it seems to be related to the outer building."
Yuan Wei nodded and remained silent. He looked downstairs, but his thoughts weren't on the people. After thinking for a moment, Yuan Wei smiled: "Louwailou, a good calculation." Listening to Brother Wu's description, the young man was probably also a kendo wizard, and Louwailou took advantage of our friendship with him to reconcile, because he wanted to be friendly with this young man. ”
"Your Highness, then we..."
Yuan Wei waved his hand to interrupt the old servant's words, he looked at Yuan Wu and said again: "Don't have to quarrel with people casually in the future, you know?" It would be best for us if such a person could allow us to use our interests, otherwise we should not let him stand against us, even if we cannot win him over. Give it to others, and in the long run, our chances of winning in the future will be much smaller. ”
He didn't say it seriously, but he was teaching his younger brother. Yuan Wu knew about his brother's big things, and when he heard this, he nodded, not daring to refute anything, he was still a little jealous of his brother.
Maybe he also felt that the words were a little heavier, so Yuan Wei comforted him softly: "Don't worry about it this time, we have seen a lot of geniuses, one or two is okay for the overall situation, if you go against us and teach you a lesson." But if he is really from the outside of the building, don't chase this matter anymore, just expose it. It's good for us to be neutral all the time, and sometimes we need to rely on them, because it's not worth it for a teenager to stiffen a relationship. ”
Yuan Wu was not a fool, he knew that his brother's great cause was the most important, so he nodded heavily.
Yuan Wei didn't say anything more, and his eyes turned downstairs again.
Downstairs, He Zhangzhi's words entered the hearts of many people, and everyone echoed them.
The purpose of their coming here was originally for the Fuxuan Sword, and on the Great Dao, it represented not only a sword, but also the pinnacle of martial arts. Almost all people originally had such an idea in their hearts that they would not give up until they reached their goal, but more people did not have the perseverance to fight to the end, and in the face of easier benefits, they chose to give up halfway.
Dai Shuang asked those who agreed to raise their hands, from a few sporadic people at the beginning to almost half of them raised their hands at the end, and the response was self-evident.
Dai Shuang's eyes glanced at the people in the audience, and she shook her head for no reason, although the movement was slight, she was still captured. This action has a lot of meanings.
