Chapter 224 Mysterious forces, premeditated Cangzhou

"Oh...... I see! Lin Shen took a sip of tea, then nodded. 56 Stacks .

It turned out that after he said it last time, Shu Bai had already arranged for Yan'er to go to the auction house.

"What? Brother Lin, do you want to go see Miss Yan'er? Shu Bai smiled faintly, and then asked.

“…… No need, tomorrow is the start of the selection competition, since you have decided to participate, if you can't enter the Xiangling Academy, wouldn't it be a pity! Lin Shen pondered for a moment, but shook his head.

It's better to let things go with the flow.

Now that Shu Bai has arranged a source of life for her in the future...... Then he doesn't have to worry too much.

He believes that as long as the Shu family does not fall...... And if he Lin Shen is still there, then Yan'er will definitely not suffer any danger in this White Cloud City.

So there's really no need to go over again...... Yan'er's emotion, how can he not see it.

But does Lin Shen have the leisure to pay attention to the private affairs of these children? Obviously impossible, on this vast continent, he has to tremble at every step, and he has no time to talk to Yan'er.

What's more, he is not interested in smoke...... More than that, it's just pity.

Some things, to do this, are enough. It's better not to see each other than to see each other, if it's because you're worried that the other party will often go to meet each other, you're afraid that if you come and go, the woman will fall deeper and deeper.

"By the way, Brother Shu, in Baiyun City, are there any tricky characters in the contestants this time?" There was silence for a while, but Lin Shen inquired about Shu Bai.

“…… No one knows these questions, after all, the people who participate in each contest are not fixed! Shu Bai smiled bitterly, "When it's time for the game, it's better to be cautious yourself......"

"Brother Lin...... Be sure to pay attention, if you feel the danger, then you don't have to worry about winning or losing and saving face, just admit defeat! After Shu Bai finished speaking, he solemnly admonished.

"Our purpose...... It's just that I entered Xiangling Academy, and my Lao Tzu asked me to take the road of literature in order to go in and learn strategy and the art of war! So I just need to use this place to ......" Shu Bai pointed to his head, "And Brother Lin, you are different, you are a martial artist, so you must be cautious and cautious!" ”

"Even if you admit defeat, you can't give your life because of conceit...... Generally speaking, if you really meet someone who has strong hole cards, you basically can't win! ”

"So it's better to recharge your energy...... The number of places admitted is still extremely large, as long as Brother Lin can win a few games, you can continue to participate...... There's no need to fight for the previous rankings, those are all false! ”

"Well...... I'll pay attention! Lin Shen nodded, but Shu Bai smiled secretly, the former is not a person who loves to be prestigious, so he can rest assured.

"That's right! Brother Shu...... Is there a lot of people along the way? Lin Shen raised his eyebrows, but asked suddenly.

"Nope! ...... out of 5 million entrants Less than one-twentieth of those who take the road of the text! Shu Bai smiled self-deprecatingly, "After all, this is a continent where strength is respected, no matter how strong the strategy is, it is useless!" ”

"In the face of absolute power, no matter how high your strategy is, it is impossible to escape death!"

Lin Shen smiled noncommittally, but he didn't argue with Shu Bai about this issue.

"The rules of this game...... Brother Shu should know, right? "Anyway, it's fine, Lin Shen is fortunate to ask for clarification.

Now that you know this, you won't have to bother to inquire and understand tomorrow.

"Rules...... Not much! The competition in Baiyun City was held in Baiyun Square! A full 5,000 rings, decided by lot! The winner adds one point, the loser subtracts one point, and the draw does not add or subtract! ”

"In the end, the person with the highest remaining score, 30% of the total number of people can get a place to participate in the Six Cities Selection Competition!" Shu Bai nodded, and then explained.

"Judging from the number of participants in Baiyun City in the past...... Floating around 1.2 million to 1.8 million! ”

Lin Shen was not much surprised, after all, Shu Bai had already said it before. Baiyun City and Hidden Mist City have 60% of the quotas for entering Xiangling Academy, and it is normal for so many participants to participate.

"So it seems...... It wasn't that difficult! Can Brother Shu be confident? Lin Shen smiled, then patted Shu Bai's shoulder and asked with a smile.

"I'm so confident!" Shu Bai smiled knowingly, and then nodded.

The two talked about the topic of the tryouts, but they talked about it again. Shu Bai actually took this opportunity to ask Lin Shen about his unfathomable literary cultivation, and the young man was not stingy, and he gave answers to all the answers ^H.

……

And at this time, the City Lord's Mansion of Baiyun City.

Bai Xiaotian sat in the study, looking out the window, without saying a word.

And in front of him, it was the head of the Shu family...... Shu Jue, who was super poor, Bai Xiaotian didn't speak, but the former didn't have any words.

"Shu Jue, Shu Jue...... Which empire are you talking about? If you want to drive a wedge between the city lord and the empire, is it true that the city lord will take refuge in them? ”

"But! It's weird...... For several years, I didn't even find out who it was! Fortunately, the city lord did a good job, and they couldn't catch me! ”

"Tell me...... Which country are these people? After being silent for a long time, Bai Xiaotian smiled helplessly, and then asked heavily.

But he didn't know that the person he had been looking for was not somewhere else, just under his nose.

Bai Xiaotian was not worried...... Although the other party sent countless people to investigate his details, he didn't do anything that people and gods were angry about, so he didn't have a handle at all.

And the other party only investigated and persuaded, but did not have any intention of attacking him...... It also shows that the forces behind him Bai Xiaotian are still the ones who live in these people who are hidden in the shadows.

But no one wants a dangerous force hidden around them.

Although in the past five years, Bai Xiaotian has not found anything harmful to him. But in this case, no one will be relieved if it is put on anyone.

Although Shu Jue is a strategist...... But information is also needed to analyze these situations, and the person hiding in the shadows, he doesn't even know whether the other party is a man or a woman, how can he plan?

“…… Strange to say...... The lord of this city can clearly see that those guys are no more powerful than Jianxiong at most, but everyone has life-saving things in their hands, and I can't keep them! ”

"And...... Every time these people show up, they are not the same people last time! In this way, the difficulty of trying to detect it is undoubtedly even greater! Bai Xiaotian didn't wait for Shu Jue to answer, and began to murmur again.

"I don't know...... What does the family mean - let me wait and see? Could it be that this matter still has something to do with the family? ”

……

"City Lord!" Shu Jue pondered for a moment, and waited for Bai Xiaotian to talk to himself before he spoke up.

"But it doesn't hurt to say it!" Bai Xiaotian was stunned for a moment, and then he was overjoyed, he knew that Shu Jue was not easy to export, since he was so solemn, he could analyze some useful news more or less.

"According to my subordinates...... The man in the shadows should not be a man of a hostile country! As soon as these words came out, Bai Xiaotian's expression suddenly became a little puzzled.

"The lord must be strange...... But if you think about it, if it is people from other empires, then even if they come to Baiyun City, they will only be undercover! It won't show up easily, and more than ninety percent of the time it is! ”

"And the principality? Kingdom? It's even more impossible...... I'm the Izumo Empire, and I'm one of the eighteen empires, and those small countries will never dare to have the courage to offend! ”

"Because they know ......" Shu Jue smiled coldly, "If nothing happens, it will be enough, and once something happens, then their country will inevitably bear the boundless wrath of my Izumo Empire!" ”

"So...... The possibility that this mysterious force in the shadows was sent by other countries is very small. It's almost negligible......" Shu Jue finished speaking, but he glanced up at Bai Xiaotian, who was groaning.

"And, the lord of the city...... The news from your family has also confirmed a thing, and they asked you to wait and see, which proves this matter, they should know...... At least more than eighty percent of the probability is known! ”

"So...... Naturally, it is even more unlikely that it was sent by other countries! Therefore, there is a 20% probability that the rest of the families are 20% likely, and an 80% probability is ...... Someone who premeditated - the sect! ”

As soon as Shu Jue's words came out, Bai Xiaotian suddenly stood up, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.

"Why can't it be the rest of the family?"

"Castle Lord...... This point was also analyzed by your subordinates when they learned the news from your family! Since they let you wait and see, the possibility of the rest of the families is extremely small! ”

"In the Izumo Empire...... Even the entire Cangzhou, the city lord's family, should have some weight! Shu Jue smiled faintly, "If it is other families, do you think that there are many families that can be stronger than the Bai family and still have bad intentions?" This possibility is very small! ”

"There is only the sect...... is the most likely mastermind behind it, because how many sects are there in Cangzhou, I think this is ...... No one can possibly know! ”

Bai Xiaotian nodded, and then looked out the window with some confusion.

"So...... What is their purpose? What is it? ”

"This ......" Shu Jue's face froze slightly, and then he muttered for a moment, "The subordinates guess that eighty percent is to seek out the Cloud Empire, and there are two percent ......"

"How about two percent?" Bai Xiaotian frowned, then stood up and motioned for Shu Jue to finish speaking. The situation analyzed by the other party, he thought about it seriously, and it was indeed very likely.

Shu Jue smiled bitterly, even he couldn't believe the two answers that appeared in the end after analyzing it.

"There is still a two-percent possibility, which is - premeditated Cangzhou!"
