Chapter 174: Calculated
Chapter 174 of the second volume of the demonic and chaotic times has been calculated
Zhu Kaiyou wanted to postpone the game and give his side a chance to rest, but Wang Hongyuan jumped out to oppose it.
"What is your identity? It's a matter between the three major families now, when will it be your turn to intervene!" Zhu Kaiwu couldn't get used to Wang Hongyuan's behavior, but now that he has made trouble again, where will he care about his face.
"You're right, it was originally a matter of your three major families, and it was inconvenient for me as an outsider to intervene. But I'm weird too. Could it be that your Zhu family, the Zhu family that has dominated Qujiang for thousands of years, is only the three people who can show up just now? Don't you even have a substitute candidate?"
"That's right, such an important competition, didn't your Zhu family fall, after the three were injured just now, no one played? What kind of three families are they!" someone in the audience coaxed.
"Wang Shichen and Li Jianfeng, I think this is a matter between the three of us. As for what other people want to say, my Zhu family doesn't want to pay attention to it, and I don't bother to deal with them. I just want to ask the two family heads, what do you think of my Zhu family's suggestion?"
Zhu Kaiyou ignored the clamor of Wang Hongyuan and others in the audience, and shouted directly at Wang Shichen, the head of the Wang family, and Li Jianfeng, the head of the Li family.
Wang Shichen and Li Jianfeng glanced at each other, their mouths moved slightly, obviously talking to each other. After a while, Li Jianfeng, the head of the Li family, spoke.
"Brother Kaiyou, I discussed it a little with Brother Jianfeng just now. Although our two families are also very sympathetic to the Zhu family's situation in recent years," Li Jianfeng deliberately raised the words "the situation of these years" very highly, which made Zhu Kaiyou blush.
"However, everyone in the audience is a part of Qujiang, and we can't help but listen to their opinions, otherwise the people of Qujiang are afraid that they will say that our three families are too domineering. Li Jianfeng's words changed, "So, Brother Shichen and I think that we should take a compromise approach." ”
Speaking of this, Li Jianfeng suddenly paused, the scene was quiet, and everyone, including Zhu Kaiyou, was waiting for the compromise that Li Jianfeng said.
"The compromise we negotiated was for the 10th place to be contested by other forces. After their competition is over, the three of us will fight again. Li Jianfeng slowly said the method they discussed.
"This" Zhu Kaiyou originally wanted to say something, but seeing that Li Jianfeng and Wang Shichen looked like they had made up their minds, it was not easy to insist on anything.
On the surface, this method does take care of the Zhu family. It's just that judging from the past situation, the competition for the tenth place will take more than an hour at most. Zhu Yunxiong's injury maintenance is not something that can be completed in one or two hours.
"Okay, since that's the case, it's not good for our Zhu family to say anything, just do what you say. Zhu Kaiyou reluctantly walked out of the ring.
"Since the three major families have unanimously agreed, then we will first compete for the tenth place, and invite representatives of various forces to come to the stage," the old man in black announced loudly.
"Brush, brush, brush" More than a dozen figures suddenly rushed into the ring together. However, not long after the old man in black just announced the start, the figures of "brush, brush, brush" flashed out of the ring one by one, and in the end, only Wang Hongyuan was left on the stage.
"This" The old man in black was also stunned by this sudden situation.
"What's strange about this, since everyone else has already gotten out of the ring, and now I'm the only one left in the ring, then of course, I'm the winner of the tenth place!
"Hey, since that's the case, then I'll announce the face, the winner of the tenth place is Wang Hongyuan!" the old man in black sighed, shook his head, and announced helplessly. He was a fair man, but he couldn't find anything wrong with this situation.
"The competition for the tenth place has ended, is it possible to compete with the three major families. We are looking forward to the performance of the children of the three major families!" Wang Hongyuan became the winner of the tenth place, but he was not in a hurry to step down.
As soon as he said this, the people of the Zhu family and those who supported and sympathized with the Zhu family were dumbfounded. The alliance of small and medium-sized forces was in an uproar.
"Yes, didn't you say that after the tenth place is decided, there will be a competition between the three major families?"
"Now that Wang Hongyuan has won the tenth place, what are the three major families still doing in a daze, hurry up!"
In the face of this commotion, the people of the Wang and Li families were indifferent, and there was some schadenfreude in their eyes. The people of the Zhu family had angry expressions.
It seems that this time Qujiang Dabi has been thoroughly targeted again. Although there is no evidence that the Wang and Li families were involved in this kind of targeting, there is no need to think about it to know how much they participated. Not to mention that Wang Hongyuan and Li Xiancun are their distant relatives.
Just from what happened just now, we can also see some clues. The Wang and Li families made concessions and decided to wait for the tenth place to be settled before the competition of the three major families.
But it was so coincidental that when the 10 places were contested, everyone directly gave up the quota to Wang Hongyuan! If there was no one and no force to mediate in secret, it would be strange that those second- and third-rate forces would reach an agreement so quickly!
But now, the Zhu family can't say what they are suffering about.
"Yun'er, how are you? Can you play? No, let's change it. Although the strength will be lower. Zhu Kaiyou knew that things could not turn around, and asked his son with concern, "There is still more to worship, you"
"I'm fine, I've taken the healing medicine, and I've rested for so long, I should be able to continue," Yu Hongcai waved his hand.
"I'm not in the way," Tu Tian spread his hands.
"Don't worry, father, I can insist, cough, cough" Zhu Yunxiong coughed lightly, but nodded stubbornly.
"Hey, I'm sorry for the three of you. Fortunately, we have retained our family's status, and now there is a place. As for whether the rest can achieve anything in the ring, you just have to do your best. If you really can't do it, just jump out of the ring and admit defeat, I will never blame you. ”
When Zhu Kaiyou said that he would admit defeat directly, the corners of his mouth twitched visibly for a while. As the head of the Zhu family, in fact, how could he be willing to admit defeat directly like this. In that case, the little prestige that the Zhu family had just established in the competition just now would be wiped out again.
However, in the current state, his sons Zhu Yunxiong and Yu Hongcai are both injured to varying degrees. However, the representatives of the Wang and Li families are waiting for work. In such a targeted situation, how many chances can the Zhu family have.
"Brother Kaiyou, the situation is completely unexpected by us. However, the matter has come to this point, and we, as the three major families of Qujiang, cannot be untrustworthy and make people laugh. Wang Shichen looked righteous and awe-inspiring.
"Yes, Brother Kaiyou, why don't we start now. So as not to make Qujiang's fathers and villagers wait for a long time!" Li Jianfeng also opened his mouth to urge.
As soon as the two spoke, the three representatives of the Li family and the Wang family jumped into the most central ring. The six of them looked at the Zhu family's seat together, and although they didn't speak, their meaning was very obvious.
"Let's go, don't let people look down on you. Tu Tian said, and jumped into the most central ring first. Yu Hongcai and Zhu Yunxiong followed closely and also went to the ring.
Three families of nine people stood in three directions.
The three members of the Wang family are Wang Hongyang, Wang Hongdao, and Xu Xiuxian; the three members of the Li family are Li Shimin, Li Xiancheng, and Zhou Xiaozhu, who was invited from outside; and the Zhu family is naturally Tu Tian, Yu Hongcai, and Zhu Yunxiong.
"Now that the representatives of the three families have come to power, let's start the competition of the three families. Before the competition, I reiterate the rules of the competition according to the old rules. The old man in black saw that the three major families had already agreed, and he also jumped into the central ring.
"Since the three major families have already held the ring in the previous link, the three major families now have a total of nine places to enter the Qingyuan Sacred Peak. According to the old rules, each of the three families gets a guaranteed place. For the remaining six places, three representatives from each of the three major families will compete to determine the ownership of the six places. ”
Hearing this, Tu Tiancai understood why Zhu Kaiyou said just now that they had retained the status of the Zhu family's big family and got a quota, but it turned out that they would have to get a quota if they held the ring.
"The rules of the competition are very simple, nine people, three people step down, and the remaining six people naturally reserve a place for each family. In other words, as long as three of the nine people are eliminated, the game is over. The old man in black continued to introduce.
"But, be careful, point to point. Intentional homicide will be directly judged to lose the game. Okay, that's all there is to you, is there anything you don't understand?" the old man in black looked around.
Zhu Yunxiong took the opportunity to convey a message to Tu Tian and the others: "Be careful that the two of them partner against us. The last session was a partnership between the two families of Wang and Li, and the three of our Zhu family were knocked out of the ring, and then the quota was divided equally!"
Tu Tian and Yu Hongcai nodded towards Zhu Yunxiong, indicating that they understood.
"Okay, since you don't have any doubts, then I announce that the big competition between the three major families of Qujiang will start now!" After the old man in black finished speaking, he floated away from the ring and came to the referee's seat at a higher place.
As soon as the old man in black left the scene, Tu Tian and the three of them adjusted their positions slightly, Tu Tian was on the left, facing the Li family, Yu Hongcai was on the right, facing the Wang family, and Zhu Yunxiong was placed in the middle of the three because of his injuries.
The Wang and Li families are also adjusting, but the position is very strange. The Wang family arranged Li Xiuxian to face the Li family, and the Li family also arranged Zhou Xiaozhu to a position adjacent to the Wang family.
It is said that if the two families want to join forces to deal with the Wang family, they should arrange the strongest combat power, such as Li Xiuxian, to face the Zhu family, so as to launch a devastating blow to the Zhu family.
What kind of conspiracy are these two families engaged in? Tu Tian and the three of them did not dare to be careless in the face of such a deployment by the Wang and Li families!
