31. Tryouts
There are a lot of people in Tianji City today, and it is very lively
Li Chong was busy at the front desk of Li's restaurant, and if he looked closely, he didn't look like a local.
Looking at the ring set up outside the door, Li Chong's heart blossomed
The Lord of Huang City deliberately set up the ring in front of his Li family restaurant this year, and his intention is naturally self-evident
This is just one more quota than last year, and the number of cultivators from other places who come and go has doubled, if the Du family and the Shi family are completely destroyed, the remaining quota will be lowered, and the flow of people will not know how many times it is now
Li Zhong was thinking wildly in his heart, not noticing that Du Gang had also come here with his daughter Du Juan
Where did the little guy who walked the dishes know what the head of the Du family was, enthusiastically selling the new dishes of the restaurant, Du Gang was shocked to find that in just three days, the Li family had actually launched so many new dishes, and couldn't help but feel upset, so he ordered two dishes casually and let the little guy go down
Du Juan asked Du Gang with a worried face: "Father, I heard that Du Di was arrested?" ”
"Right"
Du Gang had a calm face and said angrily: "That waste, I didn't even squat for three days, and I was finally caught in."
"He didn't give us out, did he?"
Du Juan looked a little nervous, she was worried that the last place in the Du family would not be guaranteed because she was caught
"Nope"
Du Gang took a sip of tea and said slowly: "His wife and children are still in the Du family, so he has not confessed."
Speaking of this, Du Gang's expression eased, and he said to Du Juan: "Although Du Di is a side line, he is also a member of my Du family, and he has done a lot of things for us over the years, find an opportunity to go to the government to dredge up the relationship and get people out."
After hearing this, Du Juan's heart was a little shocked, and he responded with a "yes", and the father and daughter stopped talking
What's wrong with your father? It was the first time in all these years that my father, who was unreasonable to outsiders and the Du family, actually wanted to get people out of prison
The cuckoo looked at his father in front of him, and suddenly felt a little strange, since when did his father change?
It seems that after coming out of the City Lord's Mansion three days ago, it has become less flamboyant and ruthless
As if sensing Du Juan's gaze, Du Gang smiled bitterly and said, "Daughter, you seem to have some holiday with the girl next to Qin Lan, listen to what your father said, if you really can't let it go."
Although he was furious in the City Lord's Mansion, when he calmed down, he realized that he had taken the Du family too seriously all these years
Even if it is not the Li family today, there will be the Wang family and the Zhang family to replace him tomorrow
The decision on some things never belonged to the Du family
"No way!"
The cuckoo's expression changed suddenly, and she stood up and screamed, attracting the attention of the people at the next table, and she realized her gaffe and hurriedly sat back again.
"You calm down"
Du Gang frowned and said: "The news that Du Di is going to kidnap people is not known to anyone other than you and me, I have felt it since that day in the City Lord's Mansion, then Qin Lan can be one step ahead of others in everything, isn't such an opponent terrifying?" ”
Listening to his father's words, the cuckoo was silent, but the resentment in his eyes was still strong
She was silent not because she listened to her father's words, on the contrary, she felt that her father was old and had no momentum, if she had heard that someone had bullied his daughter five years ago, she would have carried a knife to the door of the house, when had she ever shown such a compromising posture?
Father, since you are old, your daughter should do her own thing!
The cuckoo secretly made up his mind, and the short knife quenched with poison on his waist flashed with a cold light.
boom
It was noon, and there was a sound of gongs striking outside, and the crowd instantly fell silent
Huang Litian walked to the middle of the ring and said loudly: "There are two places to run for the Tianji Monument, there are two in total, all the monks who signed up will face off one-on-one according to the grouping at the time of registration, and the last two people left will get the quota and participate in the real battle for the Tianji Monument!" ”
"I would like to announce that the competition has officially begun! Those who face off in the first group of duels please go straight to the stage! ”
Listening to Huang Litian's words, the enthusiasm of the monks who came to participate in the selection was ignited, and in an instant, two figures jumped up from the crowd and jumped onto the ring.
There was no extra amount of etiquette between the two, the spiritual power flowed, and the figures moved close to each other, and finally scuffled together
The two fought back and forth, each using their own means, and the audience who watched applauded for a while, and some of the participants also secretly commented and discussed enthusiastically
Qin Lan and Ye Xiaoxiao stood in a corner on the edge of the crowd, quietly watching the monks on the stage compete with each other, and watched for an hour, the highest cultivation was no more than the middle of the sixth grade
Qin Lan shook his head secretly, to be honest, he was not interested in these small troubles, if it wasn't for Ye Xiaoxiao pulling him over, he wouldn't have come.
Ye Xiaoxiao seemed to have recovered from the sadness of the previous two days, his eyes were glowing, and he was holding a sugar gourd in his hand.
Suddenly, Ye Xiaoxiao felt that someone was tugging at the corner of her clothes again, and turned her head suspiciously to see that a little girl with pigtails was staring at the sugar gourd in her hand stupidly, and a trace of sluggling saliva flowed from the corner of her mouth.
"Do you want this?"
Ye Xiaoxiao squatted down, a gentle smile curled into the corners of his mouth, and asked softly
The little girl lowered her head, her two little hands were holding each other nervously, and finally saw Ye Xiaoxiao's soft smile, hesitated for a moment, and nodded.
Ye Xiaoxiao handed the sugar gourd to the little girl and rubbed her head, at this time, a young woman behind the little girl squeezed over, pulled the little girl over, and said anxiously: "Oh, why are you running around this child, what are you holding in your hand?" Take other people's things again! ”
As he spoke, he was going to take the sugar gourd and return it to Ye Xiaoxiao
Ye Xiaoxiao hurriedly waved her hand and said, "Sister is fine, the child will eat it if she likes it, don't blame her." ”
The young woman showed an apologetic smile on her face, thanked Ye Xiaoxiao, looked at the little girl with disgust, and said, "You kid is really, why are you so greedy?"
The little girl smiled innocently, and the young woman stopped preaching, thanked Ye Xiaoxiao again, and led the child away.
Qin Lan saw it in his eyes, and a knowing smile appeared on his face unconsciously.
The people of Tianji City are simple, and even if their children eat something given by a stranger, nothing bad will generally happen.
Qin Lan longs for this kind of life, and can live easily.
Ye Xiaoxiao glanced at Qin Lan in surprise, what is this idiot smiling? She slapped Qin Lan's arm, and shook her empty hands in front of Qin Lan's eyes.
Qin Lan didn't understand what Ye Xiaoxiao meant at first, and looked at her suspiciously, until he followed Ye Xiaoxiao's gaze and saw the sugar gourd stall, he felt as if he understood a little.
So under Ye Xiaoxiao's gaze, Qin Lan took the first step towards the sugar gourd stall with stiff limbs, buying things for girls, it was the first time he had grown so big
After a while, Qin Lan's expression was twisted, and he handed a string of sugar gourds to Ye Xiaoxiao dryly, without superfluous words and movements.
Ye Xiaoxiao decided not to embarrass him anymore, took the string of sugar gourds from Qin Lan's hand, and saw that Qin Lan still seemed to have a faint flush on his face, and he burst out laughing, and the laughter was as pleasant as a silver bell, attracting a circle of people to look sideways.
It seems that this guy is not so cold anymore
Looking at Qin Lan's side face, Ye Xiaoxiao suddenly felt so in his heart
Before you know it, the game is nearing the end, and there are only four monks left on the field
Suddenly, Ye Xiaoxiao's eyes drifted to the stage, patted Qin Lan and said, "Qin Lan, look at that person"
When Qin Lan heard this, a handsome-looking man in white was standing on the side of the stage with his hands in his hands
"Park Painting"
The man in white arched his hand slightly, and the person standing opposite him was lined with a short cloth of coarse cloth, clean and neat, with a short sword pinned to his waist, and he also bowed his head slightly:
"Ryube"
Lvbe of the Blue and White Building!?
Someone below exclaimed in surprise and recognized the person on the field
Qinghualou is the most famous mercenary group in the Great Xia Dynasty, which accommodates almost all casual cultivators, as long as there is money and a successful task is issued, there is no worry that no one will take it
And Lu Bu is a famous mercenary in the Qinghua Building, with a task completion rate of up to 70 percent, a steel short sword in one hand, like a poisonous bee sting between three inches, light and difficult.
Seeing that both sides were ready, the referee waved one hand and shouted: "The game is on!" ”
Lu Bu's spiritual power bloomed, and he pulled out his short sword and slashed towards Pu Hua.
Pu Hua's footsteps retreated slightly, dodging the short sword at a distance of an inch, and then he raised his leg and kicked Lu Bu in the abdomen.
This kick is not light or heavy, it is not a move, and it does not use spiritual power, it is the simplest, like a leg kick used by street gangsters, kicking on Lu Bu's body, and Lu Bu only took two steps back. And Park Hua took advantage of the strength to retreat and widen the distance.
Lu Bu was stunned, and then a look of annoyance appeared on his face, he felt that he had been insulted, and with a force under his feet, he rushed towards Pu Hua again
"Three Shadow Sword!"
In a trance, Lu Bu's body shook, and three sword lights seemed to split out in his hand, stabbing at Pu Hua together!
Ye Xiaoxiao watched it with relish in the audience, and said loudly: "This Lu Bu's methods are really powerful, and it is difficult for me to take him down for a while when I am in the middle of the sixth grade."
Qin Lan's eyes narrowed slightly, looking at the Pu painting on the stage and falling into deep thought
He had a guess in his mind, but he needed to observe and observe
On the stage, Pu Hua's figure kept flashing, and no matter which angle the sword light attacked, it couldn't touch the corner of his clothes.
"Banmen get an axe!"
Lu Bu was constantly annoyed in his heart, shouted angrily, and changed the move in his hand
"Three Shadow Sword, Triple Variation!"
The short sword groaned lightly, then trembled, splitting into nine sword lights, and shot towards Pu Hua overwhelmingly!
The audience felt their scalps tingle and breathe at this fierce offensive, and they could almost imagine the scene where Park Hua was pierced into a sieve next
Under the frightened gaze of everyone, I saw Pu Hua as casual as walking in the streets and alleys, coming and going freely in the heavy sword shadows between breaths and breaths.
There is a kind of mysterious step under his feet, each step has a unique charm, it seems to be in line with some kind of avenue, and he is fluttering in white, like a fairy in the world, and the distance between him and Lu Bu is getting closer and closer.
Pu Hua's eyebrows were slightly furrowed, looking at the corner of his clothes being cut off, his face was a little unhappy, at this time, Lu Bu was in front of Pu Hua's arm, Pu Hua's spiritual power was poured into his calf, and he turned around and kicked back, and Lu Bu's head was slashed off.
It doesn't seem to be fast, but it's unavoidable!
Lu Bu only felt a flower in front of him, and a strong blow hit his temple, and then his head flew diagonally to the bottom of the stage
Everyone was in an uproar, only to see the white clothes flashing under the shadow of the heavy sword, and put down Lu Bu with one leg, even the referee couldn't see it clearly, so he had no choice but to sentence Pu Hua to win
Except for one person
Qin Lan in the audience had an inexplicable smile on the corner of his mouth and muttered:
"Luohe Jiuxing, I've found you!"
