Chapter Seventy-Five: Mutation
Two days have passed in a blink of an eye.
In the past two days, Qin Hao stayed in the stone room and rarely showed up. After figuring out some things, he was naturally in a much better mood, and he really sank into the cultivation with all his heart.
It's just that today, this practice has to be stopped. Because today, the city lord will count the number of demon beasts in the square and issue rewards to each family.
Many wandering warriors or civilians will go to watch, after all, seeing a huge number and variety of demon beast corpses at the same time, such opportunities are not many for them. And those families who participated in the hunting of beasts naturally also attended, one of which was to show respect for the old man and receive the martial arts they deserved. And secondly, it is good to enjoy the reverent gaze of those people who occasionally shine through.
"Qin Hao, do you really want to go?" Qin Shan smiled, his eyes locked on Qin Hao. He asked the question, but his tone didn't seem like a question. It seemed to be a decision that Qin Hao would make.
Qin Hao shrugged his shoulders, didn't answer, turned around, and simply walked out of the door. The ten people behind him, along with Qin Yuxian, smiled at the same time and followed.
A group of eleven people walked towards the location of the square. On the way, when many people recognized it as a child of the Qin family, their eyes couldn't help but bring a trace of awe.
A few months ago, the Qin family's crisp and neat way of winning is still something they still talk about with relish.
It's just that when his eyes moved and swept to the strongest end of the queue, the indifferent young man's figure, he couldn't help but show a little contempt in his eyes.
"This is the Qin Hao who left his clan behind and ran away by himself? How do you look like he doesn't think he would do such a thing at all?"
"I don't know my heart, you see that my appearance is not good, and my heart is not honest and honest?
"I wasted a good talent, but I was a greedy person who was afraid of death, it's a pity, it's a pity. ”
"Breaking through the Spirit Xuan Realm at the age of sixteen? Genius is brilliant? So what, compared to this kind of person, my Zhong San's strength is not very good, at the age of twenty-three, he is a martial artist of the Condensation Xuan Realm, but I feel that I am more like a real man than him. ”
It was Zhong San who spoke, a twenty-three-year-old Ning Xuan Tenfold Martial Artist, who was also well-known among the small group of single martial artists in Tianlang City. He didn't have the cultivation of his family, and until this age, he was trapped in the shackles of Ning Xuan Shizhong, and it was difficult to break through. This is also where he has been teased by some people who know him.
A martial artist who can't even step into the Lingxuan Realm at the age of twenty-three may have nothing to do in the future. And a few months ago, when he saw Qin Hao defeat Lin Bi with the strength of Lingxuan in the square, he was extremely shocked at first, but after that, he turned into deep jealousy.
He always thought that he couldn't be born in a big family, so he was trapped in this realm and couldn't move forward, if he could also be cultivated and had enough conditions, he would have soared into the sky.
"Genius, fart genius, if I had a good background, my achievements would not be inferior to theirs. This phrase is his mantra.
Because of this, he has always been jealous of the so-called "geniuses" of those families, who used to be Lin Yu, and later Qin Yuxian.
And when Qin Hao refreshed the record of the age of the Spirit Xuanwu Warrior, Qin Hao really became the representative of those who made him jealous. These words, whenever Zhong San talks to someone, he must bring the topic to Qin Hao, listen to the echo of the people around him, and feel the disdain of other people for Qin Hao, he doesn't know how good his mood is, it seems that the shackles that have been bothering him are not important.
When he said this, some of the wandering warriors he knew around him also echoed.
"Indeed, compared to this kind of person, I also feel like a real martial artist, at least, my backbone is straighter than his, and I have never been a coward. ”
"Out of this kind of person, the family is disgraced, he still has the face to come out, if I had found a place to hang myself. ”
"Look at his indifferent look, pretending to be indifferent. Die to shame. ”
One kind of person talks about it with a frown. Those ordinary people, naturally, also had a lot of sneers and disdainful of Qin Hao. And the most enthusiastic performances are mostly those ordinary martial artists who think that they have no talents, and their talents cannot be displayed due to external limitations.
Qin Hao looked at everyone's reactions, and the smile on his face did not decrease.
He remembered the words of the fat man, happiness, not because of his own luck, but because of the misery of others. Compared with those martial artists who danced with flying eyebrows, I suddenly felt that what the fat man occasionally said still made some sense.
"Qin Hao, your fame has spread all over the world. Qin Shan smiled gloatingly.
Qin Ze said even more mischievously: "Or, hang a sign on you and let everyone visit to earn some money." ”
As soon as these words came out, the Qin family laughed even more heartlessly.
They are no longer the kind of stunned young people who rolled up their sleeves and prepared to play with their lives when they were insulted twice, they have been with Qin Hao for a long time, and their surnames have changed a lot. And the Lan Lonely Forest incident, since Qin Hao lured the demon wolf away alone, although they didn't say anything on their lips, they really had an understanding in their hearts: to improve their strength, only strength is the real thing.
As for ordinary people's opinions, what is that?
Qin Hao smiled bitterly, touched his nose, and said helplessly: "I think this is a good idea, but how to divide it really has to be carefully considered." ”
"Are you still in the mood to joke?" Qin Yuxian bit his lip, looking a little displeased: "You don't know how long you have to carry this infamy?
"It won't be long. Qin Shan suddenly spoke, as if he had made some promise in his heart. Qin Ze, Qin Tao and the others clenched their fists at the same time, their faces were extremely serious.
Qin Hao spread his hands and smiled innocently at Qin Yuxian. Qin Yuxian's eyes wandered, gritting his teeth with hatred, and his gaze turned to the side.
A group of people continued to talk and laugh and walked towards the square. Those who watched on the road, expressed their feelings, and found superior ...... from Qin Hao All kinds of people also came, and there were some idle martial artists who were still following behind Qin Hao, ready to see what kind of fate he would have.
Therefore, the sensation caused by these eleven people is getting bigger and bigger in a snowballing attitude.
In the square, there was a lot of people. In the central position, Changfeng Yanyan and the two controlled the storage rings on their fingers, and laid out the corpses of the demon beasts hunted by each family in the ring one by one, and seven or eight black-clothed guards were responsible for counting, and according to the number and grade of the demon beasts, the number of points obtained by each family was determined, and the level and number of martial arts they should obtain were determined.
The corpses of demon beasts gradually occupied the central position of the square. As there were more and more demon beasts, the exclamations in the crowd were getting louder and louder.
And when he looked at the young men who were hunting beasts, the respectful look in his eyes became more and more intense. He is not very old, his strength is outstanding, and because of these people who enter the Blue Silence Forest every year to clear out the demon beasts, the Blue Silence Woodland Demon Beasts have not affected their lives.
Lin Zhanbei is also here today. His Lin family did not attend the beast hunting operation, and none of the Lin family's children came. It's just that he himself did appear here strangely, standing beside the old man, with a respectful expression, but a cold light flashed in his eyes from time to time.
Qin Hao, what if he has a good talent, just because he can withstand this kind of pressure? A young man with outstanding talent, because of external interference, his mood fluctuates, and his cultivation stagnates, and this kind of thing has not happened. On the road of cultivating martial arts, the important surname of cultivating the mind is self-evident. It's not surprising that the mood is chaotic, and it is not surprising that he has the idea of ruining his cultivation.
"Lin Zhanbei, I didn't expect you to come today. ”
"Yes, Elder Chen, let's take a look at the achievements of the children of the various families. Lin Zhanbei bowed slightly, showing extreme respect.
"No one from the Qin family has come yet. Du Jiamu's family is also a little slow. The old man looked in the direction of the field, and his tone was flat.
"The Du family, the Mu family may have been delayed by something. Lin Zhanbei's tone was firm, the heads of those two families were old foxes, with exquisite sides and slick methods, and no one had been attached to them over the years, and no one had to be offended. Such a person will naturally not be absent without an explanation.
"As for the Qin family. Lin Zhanbei sneered in his heart, but his tone became more and more deferential: "Maybe it's because of some things recently, maybe I won't come." ”
The old man looked at the sky and said nothing.
The crowd of onlookers suddenly twitched. I saw Du Yingmupan's two family heads, with the children of each family, quickly walked out from the sidelines.
Today, the rest of the people are dressed very casually, but the children of these two families are rare to wear family military uniforms and tie their hair with ribbons of the same color, which is unprecedentedly grand.
Lin Zhanbei narrowed his eyes slightly, what the hell are these two old foxes doing?
Du Yingmupan and the two stood in front of the old man, bowed at the same time, and saluted. The old man looked at it, waved his hand, and motioned for the two to stand behind him.
After another moment, several small families that hunted a small number of demon beasts were also counted, and their martial arts were issued.
And the eleven members of the Qin family finally appeared in front of everyone. Since Qin Hao's figure appeared, the atmosphere of the entire square was extremely subtle.
Commentators, sneers, snorts, disdain, and all sorts of voices suddenly swept the square.
However, in this situation, Qin Hao still had a smile on his face, and walked slowly, without losing his calm and gentle manner.
"Master Lin, it doesn't seem to have any effect. Li Yan, the head of the Li family, who was the one behind the whole thing, stood behind Lin Zhanbei with a slightly unnatural expression.
"Rest easy. Lin Zhanbei snorted coldly. In my heart, I was also clouded with a layer of haze at this moment.
"Elder Chen. Under the gaze of everyone, Qin Hao took a few steps forward and saluted respectfully.
"Well, stand aside. The old man glanced at him, and there was no special change.
"Yes. Qin Hao replied and took the rest of the ten people to stand quietly.
There are more and more discussions about Qin Hao on the scene, and they are becoming more and more unbearable, words such as "cowardice", "waste", "greed for life and fear of death" can be heard everywhere, and the sharp tone is like a dagger, which can poke directly into people's hearts.
Lin Zhanbei's eyes were gloomy, and he was already laughing in his heart: it was still useful for him to arrange people to blend in with the crowd, and under their encouragement, this fire would be completely burned, and he just had to watch the play.
"Elder Chen, do you need to stop it?" Ji Fan frowned slightly, obviously he didn't expect this to be the case.
"Not necessarily. The old man's gaze was fixed on Qin Hao's undiminished smile, and a rare smile appeared: "That kid should be able to deal with it." ”
"Qin Hao, really ignore it?" Qin Shan was a little hesitant, this situation had exceeded his imagination.
"No, you don't. Besides, the more you deny it, the more cheerful they say. "He won't do anything that adds fuel to the fire.
In the queue of the Li family, a man in his twenties suddenly walked out, the man had an ordinary face, but his eyes seemed to be shrouded in clouds all year round. It was Li Yan's son, Li Zhong.
Li Zhong walked out of the Li family's queue so straight, he didn't say anything, just stretched out his hand and toyed with something in his arms. His actions naturally attracted everyone's attention.
Soon, a delicate and transparent spar appeared in his hand, and under the concentration of everyone's eyes, he showed a cold smile and poured a trace of Xuan Qi into it.
Qin Hao's gaze froze slightly, condensing like a stone. What is this kid doing?
After the Xuan Qi entered, a cloud of light and shadow emerged from the condensation stone, condensed into a light curtain in the air, and the picture of the light curtain gradually became clear.
In the picture, Changfeng Yanyan and the others were fighting with a demon beast, while Qin Hao was standing a little far away and watching them, his eyes wandering and not knowing what he was thinking.
As soon as the picture turned, all the black-clothed guards and Changfeng Yanyan were knocked to the ground, and the young children of each family also fell everywhere in embarrassment.
The picture changed again, and the two of them, who were covered in blood, suddenly jumped up from the ground and entangled the demon beast. It seemed to yell at Qin Hao.
But Qin Hao suddenly turned around, as if he was in a panic, and ran frantically towards the depths of the forest, without looking at the people of the Qin family who fell behind him......
This is the end of the picture. The light of the condensation stone gradually dimmed.
Time is short, just a few dozen breaths have passed. There are only a few pictures, but they reveal a very complete story in front of everyone.
The gaze of those spectators looking at Qin Hao completely turned into contempt.
"Scum. ”
This is a rare martial artist who believes in Qin Hao. Because he has seen Qin Hao's competition, he has never believed that he will be the kind of person who leaves his brothers and runs for his life. It's just that at this moment, he felt that his behavior of defending Qin Hao in front of his friends was so stupid. How much he trusts Qin Hao proves how idiotic he is.
"Very well handled. There was already coldness in Qin Shan's eyes. The image captured by the condensate stone is obviously deliberately processed. The sound was also disposed of. He didn't expect that when a group of people were struggling to resist the demon beasts, there were people who still had time to do such a thing.
"Get out of here. ”
"Get out. You trash."
"Don't disgrace our face in Tianlang City. ”
Someone couldn't help but throw something at Qin Hao. A cold-blooded person who is afraid of death cannot get the slightest respect in this world. No matter how talented this kind of person is, what about it?
"It's hard to end. Qin Yuxian's eyes were full of worry, and she stepped forward and blocked in front of Qin Hao.
At this time, eleven figures suddenly jumped out and blocked in front of everyone in the Qin family, blocking all the things that attacked.
Eleven figures, but they are children of the Du family. Du Wei, the heir of the Du family, who had chatted with Qin Hao at the City Lord's Mansion gathering many months ago, glanced coldly at the audience.
Then, under countless pairs of eyes, Du Wei tidied up his clothes, walked in front of Qin Hao, stroked his left shoulder with his right hand, and bowed.
Behind him, ten young people from the Du family also made this action, bowing in unison, until people's eyes were about to bulge.
The whole field was completely silent. Dead silence like never before.
This action represents gratitude and is a way for warriors to express their respect. Now, they made this kind of action against Qin Hao alone.
It's not over yet.
In a stunned state, the eleven members of the Mu family also walked in front of Qin Hao, and Mu Chendong's voice swept across the quiet square: "Whatever, when the blue forest is silent, I owe you my life, if you have anything to ask for in the future......" Mu Chendong clenched his right hand into a fist and raised it high.
"No excuses. The loud voices of the ten members of the Mu family broke through the sky.
The whole square finally fell silent at this moment.
Lan Lonely Forest, I owe him his life, these eight words lingered in the ears of more and more people, and they did not disperse for a long time.
