Chapter 12 Peaks and Loops
In the silence, Lin Dumb's amazing "Thunder Spirit Diamond" and Mu Zilei's unfancy right foot collided in an instant.
"Boom!" a muffled sound suddenly spread from the junction of the fists and feet.
The violent collision between the two suddenly opened the door of Mu Zilei's memory, and the light at the meeting was like a day nine years ago, and the sun was so bright that day.
"Xiao Lei, grandpa is sorry to tell you that you were born with a half-spirit physique, and I am afraid that you will not be able to cultivate spiritual power and learn any spiritual skills for the rest of your life. Mu Zilei's mind echoed what his grandfather had said to him when he first practiced with his grandfather when he was three years old.
"If you can't cultivate spiritual power, then you should refine your body," he said, "You were born with a deformed back and are not suitable for hand training, so you can train your legs well! Are you afraid of suffering?"
"I'm not afraid," little Mu Zilei looked serious, "I want to be a man, shoulder the responsibility of a father, and protect my mother, grandfather and grandmother." ”
So, when everyone was refining spiritual power and often getting together to learn spiritual skills, the little Mu Zilei followed his grandfather alone to cultivate his legs in the deep mountains, carrying weights on his legs every day, climbing mountains, jumping streams and rocks, kicking sandbags, and dragging weights to run away...... Every time he was tired and injured, he didn't say a word, gritted his teeth and persevered again and again.
Later, after occasionally discovering the magical power of the jade, relying on the healing effect of the jade, Mu Zilei's training became more and more harsh, and the effect of the training also increased exponentially. In this way, year after year, Mu Zilei repeated the boring training every day, and nine spring and autumn seasons passed in the blink of an eye.
Years of high-intensity training have made Mu Zilei's legs, whether it is bounce, strength or speed, far beyond those of his age!
In order to hide people's eyes and ears and catch the opponent off guard, Mu Zilei followed Mu Li's advice the night before the village exam - in the competition, unless necessary, you should not easily expose your true strength to others. So, in each round of competition, Mu Zilei climbed onto the Lingdou platform in the most clumsy way - with both hands and feet, this kind of ridiculed and shameful practice finally perfectly covered Mu Zilei's strong and powerful legs, and almost all of them woke up like a dream after seeing Mu Zilei's wonderful aerial flip just now!
But can his own flesh and blood body really withstand the full force of the Ninth Rank Quasi-Spirit Person's blow?
"Click!" With the shrill sound of bones breaking, Mu Zilei and Lin Dumb's bodies shot out at the same time.
Mu Zilei slammed on the ground, his throat was sweet, and a mouthful of blood spurted out, and a little blood red was sprinkled on the stone slab, and the cloth at the place where his right foot collided had already disappeared, revealing a large shocking bruise, and the bones inside seemed to have been completely shattered in the battle just now.
"Haha!" A burst of wild laughter attracted everyone's attention, and Lin Dumb, who had landed almost at the same time, stood up again, he wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and the aura attached to his left hand had long since disappeared, revealing his bare arm intact left hand.
Obviously, in the blow just now, Lin Dumb was only slightly injured.
"I said, if you want to win me, you can only dream!" Lin Dumb said, his original posture of a high-ranking victor was particularly funny because of the dark circles under his eyes that were beaten by Mu Zilei before.
"Really?" Mu Zilei gasped and said weakly, "Look where you are standing now?"
When Lin Dumb heard this, he was shocked to realize that he was standing under the Spirit Fighting Platform, because of the collision just now, he had already flown out upside down and landed outside the Spirit Fighting Platform.
"You ......," Lin was speechless for a moment.
"You...... Lose...... The three words ......" spit out from Mu Zilei's mouth, his body slowly fell backwards, allowing the sharp pain and warm current brought by the jade in his body to sweep through his body, before he completely lost consciousness, the only thing he heard was the roaring cheers of the people around him, and his family had already rushed to the spirit platform and hugged him into his arms.
Mu Li tore off a piece of cloth from his body and wrapped Mu Zilei's feet to cover up the healing speed that could be seen with the naked eye under the cloth. He picked up Mu Zilei and ran towards the house quickly, Shi Lan and Mu Wan'er followed, and no one noticed that a butterfly with gold stripes on a green background flew away with their figure.
With the departure of Mu Zilei and his family, the turmoil in the field gradually subsided, and everyone was eagerly waiting for the old referee to announce the results.
"Ahem......" The judge on the field cleared his throat loudly, dispelling the last noise in the field.
"Now I declare that the result of this match is ......" he looked around the court and shouted, "It's a tie!"
The audience was in an uproar, and even Lin Dumb, who had already lost hope, almost didn't believe his ears.
"Don't forget, the rules of the village exam are that anyone who is beaten to the ground or knocked out of the spirit fight will be judged as the loser. The judge seemed to have expected it, and his majestic voice resounded throughout the audience, "In this competition, Lin Dumb was knocked out of the stage, but we should not ignore the fact that his opponent Mu Zilei also fell to the ground. Both sides have wins and losses, so in this game, I sentenced the two of them to a tie. ”
As soon as the words fell, everyone woke up like a dream, and everyone came back to their senses from Mu Zilei's shocked performance just now and realized that he had fainted at that time. Many people praised the judge for his impartiality and impartiality, and impressed him with his strictness and secrecy.
"Since there is no winner or loser," the judge said slowly, "according to the rules, the two sides should immediately try again." But everyone has seen Mu Zilei's situation, his injury is not light, and it is impossible to compete again in a short time. ”
"Judge, what do you mean......" Shi Youdao on the table hurriedly asked.
The judge shook his hand towards the table and said impartially, "Chief Shimura, if the two opponents are tied and there is no way to restart the new competition in a short period of time, according to the previous practice, all the village chiefs on the table will vote anonymously to decide the winner, therefore, I suggest following the old practice and voting to decide which of Lin Dumb and Mu Zilei wins." ”
When the village chiefs on the table heard this, they whispered to each other and talked to their neighbors.
"Teacher Gu, what do you mean?" Shi Youdao turned his head and asked Gu Xiaolan.
"Follow the customs of the locals, and let the village chiefs decide everything. Gu Xiaolan said softly, she couldn't help but feel a little sorry in her heart, if it weren't for the fact that she was limited by the school's traditional five-place enrollment regulations, she would have wanted to recruit these two little guys.
"Then follow the old routine," Shi Youdao saw that all the village chiefs present nodded in agreement, so he said, "Today, the village chief of Linshi Village has not come, so it will be up to our thirteen village chiefs here to decide the final victory." ”
When he had finished speaking, he called for the paper and ink to be used for voting. The results of their votes will determine the winner and which person will enter the top five to receive admission to the Bacon Academy.
Hearing this, Lin Dumb lowered his head and pondered for a while, then jumped off the stage, and while the other attention was focused on the seat, he quietly walked towards Shi Chisha on the sidelines.
On the table, Shi Youdao twisted the paper in his hand, pondering that if there was no accident, his son Shi Chisha would defeat his opponent in the next round of the competition and enter the finals. Lin Dumb's strength is definitely above his son, if he is against him, then his son will definitely lose, and if he can't get into the top three, he won't be able to get the bottle of compound spirit liquid - this is exactly what his son who is in the bottleneck needs most at the moment. Thinking of this, he dipped his pen in ink and began to write the first words on the paper.
"Dad, I have something to tell you. At this moment, his son Shi Chisha rushed to the table and came to him, his fat face full of excitement.
"Cha'er, why are you in such a hurry? Didn't you see your father busy?" Shi Youdao couldn't help frowning when he saw that the eyes of the others were attracted by Shi Chisha.
"That Dumb Lin came running over to me just now and told me that he only wanted the admission qualification of the Bacon Academy and had no interest in the compound spirit liquid," Shi Chisha lowered his head and whispered, "He also said that if he can win this round of the competition and face me in the final, he will simply abstain." ”
"I know," Shi Youdao remained silent, "you go down, your father has his own measure." ”
After Shi Chisha left, Shi Youdao added another word "wood" next to the word "wood" originally written in the center on the piece of paper.
"I'm leaving. At this moment, Granny Ma, who was beside him, suddenly stood up.
"Don't wait for the announcement of the voting results?" Shi Youdao raised his head, "There are still a few more competitions ahead." ”
"I believe that the result of this vote is a foregone conclusion, don't you also have your own decision?" said Granny Ma, "As for the competition, the contestants I have followed are gone, and I am not interested in the others." ”
After speaking, under the eyes of Shi Youdao and Gu Xiaolan, Granny Ma slowly walked down the table with the green cane, letting the breeze blow her magical long black hair.
