Chapter 225: Family Rivalry
Flags fluttering, gongs and drums noisy. The banners are fluttering, the smoke and fragrance of the sandalwood are faint, the gongs and drums are noisy, and the dragon-shaped tiger is shaking Kunlun. The colorful costumes compete for the gorgeous, and dance step on the Qiongtai step by step. There are endless men's heroic appearance, and countless daughters are soft.
It is said that the procession that participated in the Wuyue National Clan Competition, accompanied by many singers and dancers, finally walked slowly to the national central martial arts dojo located in the north of the capital. It was really magnificent! But I saw that the walls of the building were towering and surrounded by walls. The building wall is towering, and the wall is built around the wall. The long pennant is lined up like the falling sun, and the viewing building falls like a jagged peak. There is a circular field more than 100 zhang wide in the center of the martial arts field, and dozens of square platforms with a width of more than 10 zhang and different heights are scattered around it. Facing the high pavilion hall to the north, it is resplendent with gold, which is the seat of the royal family and its dignitaries. Immediately to the left and right of the royal family are the stands reserved for some powerful families. There is a crystal ball specially created by a high-level rune master who has spent a lot of money, and you can watch the real scene of any game at will. The rest of the people and families can only watch the game with the naked eye from the ordinary stands, and it will be inevitable to miss some exciting games. Thankfully, however, according to the rules of the tournament, all the matches will be played on the center court after reaching the final stage of the top 10. And the top 10 finals of each session are naturally wonderful and not to be missed!
At this time, in a stand used by ordinary people, there was a bearded man who looked about forty, relying on his strong body, and forced out a position to give way to a plump and beautiful woman. Looking closely, the big man had an obvious scar on his face, and these two people were the scar-faced Li Man and Du Siniang Du Qing who had blended into the crowd before. Du Siniang took advantage of the noisy voice. He whispered to Li Man: "Brother Man, there are really a lot of people who came to watch the game! We have been walking like this for a long time, but we don't see anything unusual. I wonder if the other brothers will find anything?" Li Man squeezed out a little vacancy left and right, looked at Siniang and said with a smile: "It's best if there is no situation! If it's safe, this trip should be regarded as coming to cheer for Xiao Rui!" Du Siniang smiled and said: "As far as you can see, if Xiao Rui knows that you are here, I don't know how happy he will be?"
Li Man scratched his head with a smile when he heard this, looked at the grandstand owned by the Yang family, and muttered to himself: "I haven't seen Xiao Rui since he left Jiaocheng! Siniang also looked at the stands over there and said, "You see that the people of the Yang family are starting to enter the arena over there, aren't they?" suddenly opened her eyes and shouted: "Hey, it's that little porcelain baby! And the silver armored corpse ......" suddenly realized his gaffe. He quickly covered his mouth again. Li Man turned his head vigilantly and asked in a low voice, "Are you talking about the little girl sitting on the silver armored puppet......?" I couldn't help grinning and looked back again.
I saw that after the little porcelain baby came to the stands, she rubbed it around, as if she was extremely dissatisfied with the hygiene there. Suddenly, he jumped off the shoulders of the Silver Armored Corpse King. Pull up your sleeves. I took out the broom I had brought with me and started cleaning. This move made everyone in the Yang family stunned. However, because Yang Rui explained in advance, don't care, and don't obstruct any of her behaviors. So everyone had to ignore it, find their own seats, and let her go about their business.
Li Man looked at the tall dry corpse behind the little porcelain baby. couldn't help but swallow his saliva, and secretly said in his heart: "That is the silver armored corpse king that Siniang said?!, who once blocked the pace of tens of thousands of explorers in front of the ancient city gate in the Western Desert and slaughtered countless warriors, but now he follows behind the little porcelain baby like a puppet. If you don't say it, who would have thought of the horror of that corpse king? I really don't know what the origin of that baby is? With such a character guarding the Yang family, it seems that we really don't need to worry. ”
The little Xuannu didn't know what others thought of her, so she concentrated on cleaning, and her mouth was broken: "Sweep away, sweep away, sweep all of them!"
After she left Haiyuan Pavilion, she soon met Lei Baye on the street, and found Princess Lingyi through him. After reporting the abnormal situation at the Fu Array Master Selection Conference, he immediately returned to the Yang Family Courtyard according to Yang Rui's instructions. I spent a few days in the courtyard doing nothing, and it wasn't until today that I waited for the long-awaited day of the competition. Let the white-fronted dragon-eyed tiger guard the female dependents in the courtyard, and the little Xuannu herself followed the Yang family's team as one of the contestants. After some meticulous cleaning in the stands, I finally sat down in a front seat satisfied. Pointing to the Silver Armored Corpse King, he patted the seat next to him and said, "You come here to sit, don't stand in the way of others!"
The Silver Armored Corpse King walked to the porcelain baby and sat down without saying a word, and sat down on the two chairs. Looking at this pair of funny combinations, many people only held their stomachs and snickered, all saying that the Yang family was at the end of their rope and found such a strange person to be used as foreign aid. Even Yang Ye couldn't help but be a little worried when he looked at it, and said in his heart: "Although this little porcelain doll is the strength of the Yuan Dan Realm, no matter how you look at it, it looks a little tender, I don't know how it is in terms of moves." If you meet those veteran opponents, I'm afraid that people like her will suffer. This time, I can only trust Rui'er's vision!"
In the royal stands to the north, Princess Lingyi was also watching the Yang family. Seeing that everyone was seated, but only the figure of the young man was missing, Moth's eyebrows frowned slightly, and he said to Lei Baye beside him: "Eighth Master, why don't you see Yang Rui? Won't the Phantom Ice King succeed?" Lei Baye bowed down and bowed: "Princess, it has been three days since the Haiyuan Pavilion was frozen in ice, and your father has sent Commander Chen over to help, but he doesn't know the situation inside." The princess sighed and asked, "A few days ago, a friend from the Mobei mercenary group came to report that someone was planning to disadvantage his father in the tournament, is there any new discovery in this matter?" This matter is handled by Fifth Brother Long and Qiu Sihai, and I believe there will be news soon. King Lu is guarded by Qi Zhi and Mu Girl, so there won't be much of a problem. In addition, I have arranged a secret ambush for the forbidden army around this venue, as long as that group of thieves dares to show their faces, they will definitely be taken down!" The princess breathed a sigh of relief when she heard this, and said, "Thank you for your hard work. Lei Baye smiled: "It's not hard! It's just that the princess will participate in the tournament in person, so you have to be more careful!" The princess nodded and said, "I will." I only hope that Yang Rui can come in time to participate in the preliminaries. ”
As he was talking, he suddenly heard a burst of cheers around him, and the princess and Lei Baye turned their heads to look. It turned out that the handsome Jing Shao led people into the royal stands. The Jing clan has always had in-laws with the royal family, so they can share the grandstand with the royal family. When Jing Shao saw Princess Lingyi, he took the initiative to come over and smiled: "Cousin, why are you here so early?" The princess smiled: "It's cousin, you came late and missed those shows!" Major General Jing fanned his fan, and laughed: "Oh! It's a pity, it's a pity! Cousin, I'm not used to getting up early!" After a pause, he suddenly said with a straight face: "I heard that my cousin is going to participate in the tournament in person this time." As the crown prince, this is a matter of face for the royal family, so my cousin should be careful. The princess raised her head and said, "Cousin, don't underestimate me! If we encounter each other in the arena later, you can do your best!" Jing Shao shook his fan and said, "Haha! Okay! So I'll wait and see!"
Looking at Jing Shao's back, the princess couldn't help but make a grimace and said, "Hmph! I must beat you this time!" Lei Baye observed from the side, and saw that there seemed to be something wrong with the look of the person next to Jing Shao. He bowed his head and asked softly, "Princess." Is this Jing Shao credible?" The princess turned her head and said slightly angrily when she heard this: "Don't talk nonsense! My cousin has protected me since I was a child, and the Jing family and the royal family have been in-laws for generations, and they have also relied on them to support the scene in the past few years. Doubting the Jing clan is tantamount to doubting the foundation of this country!" Lei Baye lowered his head and said no more, but he still had doubts in his heart.
Over there, Jing Shao sat down in his seat. Look around with a smile. In his mouth, he whispered to the attendants around him: "Don't panic in front of the royal family." The people beside the princess are not simple!" The attendant nodded incessantly and said, "Yes, young master." But a few days ago, the royal family brought a message saying, let's beware of someone making a fuss in the tournament. I think someone leaked the news. We ......" Jing Shao waved his hand in annoyance, "Needless to say! Now that it's like an arrow, I have to send it! Let's go down and make arrangements!" the attendant had no choice but to retreat.
Jing Shao smiled and looked at Princess Lingyi, who was waving in this direction, and said to himself, "Cousin, don't blame your cousin for being ruthless today!" turned around and looked, it turned out to be the Zhou family stand not far from him, and Zhou Qiao, the son of the Zhou family, entered the venue with left and right. When he saw Jing Shao, he greeted him from afar. Jing Shao returned the salute and laughed loudly: "Zhou Gongzi was still so romantic before the game!" Zhou Qiao smiled: "Life must be happy, and the things of this competition are just dealt with casually." He deliberately amplified his voice and said: "Even if you deal with it casually, you can easily deal with some people, hahaha!"
The princess knew who he was referring to, so she simply turned her head to the side and ignored it. Jing Shao was sandwiched in the middle, knocked on the fan and said with a smile: "This year's family competition is full of strong players, in addition to the royal family and the four families, there will inevitably be many dark horses that stand out! Zhou Gongzi, you and I better be careful." Hearing this, Zhou Qiao spread his hands and said noncommittally: "What are the four major families?" The Xiyue Yang family and the Nanyue Jiang family have long since declined, and they didn't even enter the top ten in the previous sessions. Now only our Beiyue Zhou family and Dongyue martial family can be regarded as everyone! As for the royal family...... If it weren't for your Jing clan...... Hey hey ......"
"On a grand day like today, Zhou Gongzi shouldn't talk nonsense!" Jing Shaotu interrupted as soon as he put away the fan: "The Jing family and the royal family have been in-laws for generations, and they naturally belong to the royal family. Hearing this, Zhou Qiao suddenly pushed away the beauties on both sides, looked at Jing Shao and saluted: "Jing Shao, you are humble in what you say, please give me more advice on the field later." Jing Shao replied: "Don't dare, don't dare." Zhou Qiao said: "So I'm out of company first!" said and turned the left and right floors again, and walked to the front desk with a smile.
An attendant beside Jing Shao said: "Young Master, this Zhou family is ......" Jing Shao said: "The Zhou family doesn't have to worry about him, there is a move between my Jingwu family today, and there will be no mistakes!" Looking up, the martial artist on the left side of the royal family over there was also sitting in the stands. Wu Feng, the head of the martial family, was greeting King Lu at this time. Guanlu Wanglong's eyes are phoenix, his air is lofty, but his conversation is very elegant. This King Lu loves literature, and since he came to power, he has been gentle, rejuvenating agriculture and commerce internally, and insisting on seeking peace externally. Although it is admired and loved by all the people, it also makes the royal family weaken day by day in terms of military cultivation. While chatting with him, Wu Feng pulled over a woman wearing red armor and a big knife to recommend to King Lu. Jing Shao looked at the woman Fang Ting Yuli, with a thorn in the ointment, and said secretly in his heart: "It turns out that in addition to Ma Yun, there is also Wu Ling'er's girl who represents the martial arts family this year." I haven't seen it for a few years, but I don't know if its martial arts have risen. Seeing Wu Feng's gaze turned, he quickly exchanged glances with him and said, "It seems that the martial family's side is already ready, just waiting for the results of the competition!"
Just thinking about it, I saw King Lu walk to the front of the royal stand, puff out a breath, and said in a loud voice: "Welcome! Welcome everyone to participate in this once-in-a-decade event! In this seven-day event, you will fight for your own future and fight for the honor of your family! If you pay, you will be rewarded! I hope that as a martial artist, you will show your talents in the competition, so that we can also feel the fun of the battle together!"
Wow!
A thunderous applause erupted from the scene! In the stands, shouts and cheers continued. Officers and soldiers and the people were all raising their hands to celebrate this long-awaited event. In the venue, the sound of drums and music came and went.
Looking at the boiling appearance in the venue, King Lu smiled and nodded, slowly opened his hands and said loudly: "Now I announce that the Wuyue National Clan Tournament has officially begun!" After all, I don't know how thrilling the tournament is, and listen to the next decomposition. (To be continued......)
