Chapter 22: It's Impossible! (4,200 words)
On the twenty-third day of the descent, July 21, it was another day when you woke up to watch a play.
Since the last time the two thieves who climbed the wall and came in were 'raised' by me, the palace has been very peaceful. Wang Xiaoxiao's life and safety are no longer threatened for the time being.
And of course I can sleep contentedly until I am naturally 'woken up'.
It feels like it's been a long time, and Luoluo no longer tells me to get up early, and every day when she wakes me up, it must be three poles in the morning to have lunch.
Happily, every morning she will still consciously practice calligraphy and endorsement, probably counting on the completion of the homework I assigned, I can take her out to play.
I've told her that she doesn't need to chant, but she really can't force it. The twisted melon is not sweet, and it is also because it is twisted down that it is found to be not sweet. Lin Luoluo is really not interested in something, so I'll just give up.
Do you have to chant sutras to be a Buddha? It's okay to be compassionate and purify sentient beings, and the requirements are not so high. After all, there are so many Buddhist scriptures, and few of the brothers in my temple can memorize them.
At lunchtime, Wang Xiaoxiao kept babbling on what to say. I didn't listen carefully, I felt like I was still confused, and I was all angry to get up.
Lin Luo landed next to me and was cooking seriously, and suddenly pulled me and motioned for me to bend my ears and listen to her.
"Master, I don't know why, I have a little pain in my chest." Luoluo whispered in my ear.
"You take a sip of soup." I thought something was wrong.
"Master, why do you have a chest ache and drink soup?" Lin Luoluo didn't understand what I meant for a while.
"You're eating too fast, you're choking." As I spoke, I picked up the soup bowl and gave it to her, today's rice was relatively dry, and I found it difficult to swallow.
"Master, master~" At this time, Wang Xiaoxiao, who was sitting on the main seat, suddenly called me.
"What's wrong with Miss Xiaoxiao?" I looked at her.
"Master, after dinner, the second round will start directly. I'll take a look at it when I have time. Wang Xiaoxiao said.
"Then let's go with us later." As I spoke, I sandwiched a chicken leg into the bowl of the forest.
......
It's still the familiar council chamber.
In view of the fact that the first round of wooden floors were trampled, they have now been replaced with fine stone tiles.
There are more old men sitting on it today, I did the math, thirteen came, more than half! I guess it may be that I just had a full lunch and can't sleep, so I came to watch the play to help my digestion.
Lin Luoluo just sat down, and fumbled around and took out a handful of melon seeds from his pocket.
When did she get the melon seeds? Why does she always have melon seeds in her pocket?
Awesome.
Snack after meals.
One by one, everyone came to the council hall and sat down and waited.
"Ahem... Be quiet!
Everyone is almost there, right?
It's still me today, Wang Chuanshan. Without further ado, the last round of Wang questions will be counted as two points, and Wang Xiaoxiao will be counted as one point.
Today, under the joint witness of all of you, our Wang family began the second round of the latest round of internal competition for the head of the family. Everyone knows the rules of the competition, so you can start directly.
Both sides, the personnel of the second round of business warfare should come forward to report the situation. ”
It's simple and straightforward, and everyone doesn't talk nonsense.
Wang Di took the lead in walking out of a young man, confident, holding the account book, came to the middle of the chamber, bowed. …
"I've seen all the elders, I'm Wang Ce. In this round, I was ordered to lead a team to a small village on the side of Jianye City in the south of the Yangtze River, Taohua Village. After grinding and soaking, they finally bought ten jars of peach blossom brew that their village chief had treasured for more than ten years with 1,000 taels of silver.
After bringing it back, it was sold in Jiangxia and Qingcheng, and finally sold for 2,800 taels of silver, making a profit of 1,800 taels. Here are the ledger transactions. With that, he handed the ledger to the elders.
I saw him look at Wang Xiaoxiao with a provocative look before retreating.
"Awesome!"
"Admire, admire!"
"You can actually buy peach blossom stuff!"
The people who eat melons are lively, you say a word, I say a word.
......
It's small! You're small!
A smile crossed my lips and I silently swallowed melons.
Last night's auction was kept secret, Feng Xiaoer had already explained, and the news should not have been revealed much for the time being, and there must be very few people here who know.
I glanced at it, Wang Xiaoxiao also looked calm, and didn't put joy on his face, an old actor.
Wang Xiaoxiao saw Feng Xiaoer get up, go on the field in person, walk to the middle, and wave his hands to show his respect.
"Feng Xiaoer, I have seen the elders of the Wang family. In this round, Miss Wang Xiaoxiao handed me 1,000 taels of silver, and I bought 10 catties of tea from the host of Qingxin Temple a few days ago. Feng Xiaoer said.
"Hahaha, it's tea again, how can you win it."
"Throw in the towel, hahaha."
The taunt over there came directly, and laughter erupted.
"Ignorance! Have you ever heard of anything sold at the Pure Heart Temple? Great Elder Wang Chuanshan shouted at the crowd on Wang Di's side.
The faces of everyone over there instantly sank.
Feng Xiaoer saw that everyone stopped, and continued: "We kept the whole thing a secret, and we don't blame you for not hearing the news. Last night, in my Feng family courtyard, many young people in Qingcheng were invited to hold an auction. Bid for seven catties of tea, and finally sold the price
Dear, this chapter is not finished, and there is the next page ^0^ Six thousand taels of silver, and a profit of five thousand taels. ”
"Impossible!"
"It's absolutely impossible!"
"You're cheating!" Wang Di, everyone over there... Shocked three in a row!
"Humph! Are you doubting the credibility of my Feng family? Feng Xiaoer's face changed, he looked at them coldly, and said very seriously.
"Then how can you buy things from the Pure Heart Temple!" There are still some people on Wang Di's side who are not convinced.
"Silence! What kind of system have you become? Wang Chuanshan frowned angrily and stopped.
"I, Feng Xiaoer, and your future family master, Wang Xiaoxiao, are all good friends of that master of the heart. Master Benxin wrote a handwritten letter, and I was able to be lucky enough to buy tea from Master Shuran of Qingxin Temple. Are you not convinced? Feng Xiaoer's words were clear and powerful, and the faces of the people opposite were pale!
"It's... Elder, is it really not a violation? Someone on Wang's side questioned.
"Connections! It is an important prerequisite and support for being the head of a clan! If you have the ability, you can also follow their practice! I announce that Wang Xiaoxiao will win this round of business war! Both sides are ready to speculate! Wang Chuanshan looked indifferent and opened his mouth to make a conclusion.
Both sides are no longer noisy, and if they are not convinced, they can only endure it. …
Although Wang Xiaoxiao made a trick, he just won. Other, not important. It's a bit unfair, but it's somewhat reasonable.
After all, the Buddha said: rely on your parents at home, and rely on your friends when you go out.
Wang Xiaoxiao's side was in a high-pitched mood, and a young man walked out behind him.
"Kong Fei, I've seen the elders and talked about you." After making a bow, he said in a restrained and subtle manner.
"Master, he is my teacher's son, and he can be regarded as my junior brother." Wang Xiaoxiao explained to me, and when I heard the surname Kong, I guessed that it should be related.
A middle-aged woman also walked out of Wang Di's side, arrogant and domineering.
"How is that possible! It's her! Wang Xiaoxiao looked shocked.
"Big problem?" I asked in a whisper.
"He is the third-ranked scholar in Jiangxia City next door, with a unique style, unconventional ideas, and has been famous for many years." Wang Xiaoxiao said with some concern.
"Jiang Xiacheng scholar, Jiang Qian, I have met all the elders, I have met you." She bowed slightly.
Jiang Qian ignored everyone and said directly: "In this round, I will ask the question." The little woman has a question she wants to ask the son of Confucius, according to what you see, can the Wang family's three rounds of competition be considered fair? ”
"Nature is fair. Everyone can rely on their own abilities, their own means, connections, and resourcefulness. The position of the head of the family is naturally occupied by the capable. Kong Fei said confidently.
"Since it is the one who can live there, wouldn't it be fairer to let Wang Di and Wang Xiaoxiao compete in person? It's more than connections, but how can it be fair? Jiang Qian asked with her head held high.
"If the family can give Wang Di the opportunity to compete, it is the greatest fairness!" Kong Fei argued.
"It's ridiculous! Is the competition a chance for the king? Or give Wang Xiaoxiao a chance? You don't have any points in mind? If we talk about wisdom and means, Wang Di can completely replace it without following the family's intentions. This is what you think is a fair chance for the king? Jiang Qian asked loudly.
"The person who has a branch lineage can have the opportunity to compete for the position of the head of the family, which is originally an opportunity given by the family. Fair competition means being willing to gamble and lose. Kong Fei continued.
"Branch, branch! If it is fair, then why does the Wang family still have to divide the main vein and the branch vein? Since you have a priority, how can you be fair! When the distribution of family resources is concerned, has there ever been fairness? Wang Diyi can have today, their efforts, resourcefulness, and means, each of which is much more powerful than Wang Xiaoxiao, who makes the Wang family now in danger! Those who are capable live in it, and those who are incompetent will naturally retreat! Jiang Qian is worthy of being a famous scholar in Jiangxia, and she is as clever as a spring.
For a while, Kong Fei didn't know what to say, what does it matter to me about the legacy of the Wang family's history?
"Taught." Kong Fei no longer argued anything.
"There is no absolute fairness in the world, and what you think is fair may be unfair to others." After Jiang Qian finished speaking, she retreated to Wang Di's side.
I saw that many old men in the middle had a bad face, and they were probably poked by Jiang Qian's words, but this historical problem is not a day or two, it depends on whether the new family can completely solve it.
To be reasonable, relying on personal ability alone, Wang Xiaoxiao may indeed be inferior to Wang Di, after all, a pampered girl is still not as good as a man who has gone through hardships. However, as I expected, the advantage of the side that made the question is not a little bit bigger, fortunately, the speculation is one win and one loss, and there is no big problem at present. …
"Thank you to Scholar Jiang, the old man has been taught this time. In this round, Wang Di won. Next, the fight begins. Wang Chuanshan bowed slightly to Jiang Qian, and said to everyone without changing his color.
At this time, a woman on Wang Xiaoxiao's side jumped out and brought a gust of wind to pass.
Quietly! No wonder she was wearing a smart martial arts uniform when she saw her today, and her hair was tied into a ball, which made her look even more cute and cute.
"Quietly~ I've seen the elders." Quietly clasp your hands into fists. I saw several old men, including Wang Chuanshan, bowing their heads slightly, and the cute girl was still pampered.
Quietly, it is what I know so far that Wang Xiaoxiao's side should be the best on the surface, as for whether there is anything else to hide, I don't know.
A girl on Wang's side also got up.
Oh huh? The two women competed, and I was looking forward to it.
"Lin family, Lin Xue, I have met all the elders." The woman clenched her fists.
I saw that she was also wearing a light blue dress to practice kung fu, and the word 'Lin' was embroidered on her chest, and she was slightly half taller than Jingjing
Dear, this chapter is not finished, and there is a next page oh ^0^ head, and the physique is a little stronger.
Neither of them said more, their fists clenched and raised in front of their chests. He didn't even use weapons, and chose to fight directly with his fists and feet.
"Master, the Lin family's Stacked Wave Nine Swords have been studied for many generations and have been famous for a long time, and they can already be used to display the fist method, and they can also be called Stacked Wave Fist." Wang Xiaoxiao explained to me on the side.
"Is it okay to be quiet?" I asked, a little worried.
"Trust her, you can!" Wang Xiaoxiao said categorically.
Here we go!
Stride forward quietly and take the lead in attacking, you can't use the Stacked Wave Punch for Lin Xue, otherwise it will definitely be very troublesome.
Take the initiative to attack, and test your strength with a straight right punch.
Lin Xue didn't back down, and hedged away with a straight fist.
Syllable!
A crisp bone crash sounded! Hiss, everyone gasped, it hurt to hear.
I saw that it was quiet, stabilized the momentum and continued to rush forward, with a retract of his right hand, his body jumped up, and his right knee rushed suddenly!
Lin Xue took a step back, folded her palms with her hands, and slapped Jingjing's knees to block the attack.
Seeing that he was blocked, he stepped down with his right foot, turned his left hand into a knife, and slammed Lin Xuemian with a knife and left.
Dangerous!
Lin Xue made a defense that everyone expected at this time, and she directly grabbed Jingjing's hand knife with both hands!
I seem to have seen Lin Xue's tiger mouth crack directly, and blood flowed out!
Everyone was surprised, and their heartbeats seemed to have missed a beat! Jing Jing didn't react for a while.
Lin Xue grabbed Jingjing's left hand and pulled it violently! Jing Jing's body was unstable and fell forward.
It's too late to take any precautions!
Lin Xue got up and slammed her knee into Jing Jing's waist and abdomen.
Quietly flew out upside down, and took a few steps back to stand firm, and I saw a wisp of blood spilling from the corner of her mouth.
Lin Xue took advantage of the situation to pursue. Stride forward, right elbow strike at Jing Jing's head.
At this time, I really saw that Lin Xue's palms were also full of blood, and the price of taking the next hand knife was definitely not small.
Quietly leap back, and take a small step back to avoid its edge.
Lin Xue took advantage of the situation, a spinning side kick, and the prenatal education kicked towards Jingjing!
Quietly go down, tie up the horse, and raise your left hand to protect your head! Block hard with your arms! …
Click!
The sound of bones shattering was heard!
"Hah!" Shout quietly! The right hand formed a fist, and suddenly exerted force, directly smashing on the thigh kicked by Lin Xue!
......
It's a bit tragic!
The victory and defeat have been divided, quietly and miserably, seriously injured.
Lin Xue's leg bone should be broken! Lying on the ground, gritting his teeth, his hands covered in blood.
Jingjing's left hand is also completely drooping and trembling all the time! The right hand is covering the abdominal cavity, and there are blood stains hanging from the corners of the mouth, and it looks like the internal injury is not light.
"Doctor Hutu! Doctor Tu! Let's go see Miss Lin! Wang Di jumped up and shouted.
Wang Xiaoxiao also ran out directly and helped Jingjing up.
"Three to three! Please also ask Dr. Hu Tu to do his best to heal the two girls! Wang Chuanshan said personally.
"Definitely."
There was chaos at the scene!
......
I couldn't help much, so I quit with Jing Jing first.
"Master, Sister Jingjing seems to be seriously injured." Luo Luo said with some concern.
"It's okay, she's so powerful, Jiren has her own natural appearance." I rubbed my fallen head.
"The Buddha helps me bless Sister Jingjing ~ Amitabha!" Luoluo clasped his hands together and prayed in a good manner.
People will always have some beliefs at some special times, but these beliefs carry a lot of wishes and sincerity.
Buddha...
Did you hear the prayer of the fall?
Dear, this chapter is over, happy reading! ^0^
