Chapter 239: Selection Meeting (2-in-1 Chapter)
At noon, the world will hold a grand banquet for the triumphant return of the three, when Lin Xiao arrived, the banquet had not yet started, and Xiongba had not yet appeared at this time, so he chatted with Nie Feng and them first.
Although several people were not familiar with each other, perhaps because he had told Nie Feng a lot of secrets last time, Nie Feng was still extremely cordial to Lin Xiao. In this way, Qin Shuang's attitude towards Lin Xiao was also much better, even if he was not good at words, he would occasionally say a few words.
Finally, the hero appeared just before the banquet was about to begin. When the helper arrived, the helpers of the Tianxia Association naturally had to salute one after another. At this moment, Xiongba seemed extremely excited, and his laughter never stopped from the moment he appeared.
For the now proud hero, he rarely has troubles. It is a confirmation of the mud bodhisattva's criticism back then: how can the golden scales be a thing in the pool, and they will turn into dragons when they encounter wind and clouds.
Got the help of Fengyun, it seems that the help to Xiongba is not so huge, but in fact, this kind of thing involves the number of heavenly destiny, if there is no Fengyun, Xiongba may encounter something unlucky in the first half of his life!
But it's also fast, and it won't be long before he finds the mud bodhisattva again to calculate the fate of the lower half of his body for him, and then he will know what to do.
But at this moment, Xiongba obviously didn't know this, he was still smiling all over his face, and the joy in his heart made the domineering in his body even stronger. Even just looking at him makes people feel a sense of oppression.
"Come on, Lin Xiao, let's have a drink!" Xiongba pulled Lin Xiao and raised the wine glass in his hand and said.
"The male gang leader toasts, it's really a big face!" Lin Xiao complimented Xiongba on his lips, and raised his wine glass to drink it all, "Male gang leader, I've done it, now it's up to you!"
If something like this happens, Lin Xiao will dare to say it in the whole world. And Xiongba is not unhappy about it.
"Okay, it's done!" Daxiao raised his hand to drink all the wine in the cup, and then Daxiao picked up the wine jug and filled Lin Xiao with a glass himself.
"Lin Xiao, the old man mentioned that matter to you last time, how did you think about it?" Xiongba suddenly looked at Lin Xiao and asked.
At this time, Nie Feng and the three of them had already competed with those gangs under their door, and it was not pleasant for you to drink one cup at a time, so they didn't notice the conversation between Xiongba and Lin Xiao. Even if it was Nawen ugly, he had been poured several cups by Nie Feng and Qin Shuang, and was now talking in his sleep under the table.
"It's rare that the male gang leader can take a fancy to Lin, if Lin postpones it many times. I'm afraid it's too bad to give the male gang leader face. Lin Xiao said with a smile, "These days, I have also seen the leadership ability of the male gang leader in the Tianxia Association, and I think that in the future, the Tianxia Association will definitely be able to become the number one shili in the world." Although Lin Xiao is not a smart person, he will not shirk such a good thing!"
"haha~!" Xiongba laughed loudly when he heard this, "Okay, from today on, you Lin Xiao will be the deputy gang leader of my Tianxia Association, and your status is only below my Xiongba!"
"Subordinates, see the gang leader!" Lin Xiao said with a smile and clenched his fists.
"hahahaha~~~!!" Xiongba was overjoyed, stood up abruptly and said loudly, "Everyone. Today I will add another happy event to the world. ”
As soon as Xiongba spoke, the originally noisy banquet hall immediately fell silent, and everyone turned their heads to look at him.
"Master, what is the happy event?" Nie Feng asked curiously.
"From this day onwards. Lin Xiao officially joined my World Association and became the deputy gang leader!" Xiongba said loudly, "Feng'er, you said this is a happy event?"
"That's what the master said. This is naturally a great event!" Nie Feng nodded with a smile, and at the same time hurriedly sent a congratulatory message to Lin Xiao.
The people present were all elites of the Tianxia Society, and they still knew Lin Xiao's reputation. Back then, he defeated the young master of the lone side in three moves. Although he still looks young now, everyone has always regarded him as a martial arts senior.
Today, if Xiongba is to put another person with no reputation on the throne of the deputy gang leader, although these elite gangs of the Tianxia Association will not say anything on the surface, they will definitely be unconvinced secretly.
But now this person is Lin Xiao, the same Lin Xiao who defeated Dugu's side in three moves, so it's different.
Who is the lonely party?
That is the city lord of Wushuang City, and Wushuang City is one of the two largest shili on the rivers and lakes now, as for the other, it is naturally their world.
Now the deputy leader of their Tianxia Association is the Lin Xiao who has defeated Dugu's side, doesn't that tell the people of the world that he is the real number one shili in the world?
The deputy gang leaders are so powerful, but what about the real gang leaders? How powerful will that be?
Lin Xiao was originally worried that those gangs would be dissatisfied after he was appointed as the deputy gang leader by Xiongba, but he forgot his several achievements before leaving Fengyun Shijie.
Not to mention anything else, the main thing is that it was the Dugu party that really made Lin Xiao's name widely spread on the rivers and lakes.
"I didn't expect it to be so simple. Lin Xiao looked at the people below who were convinced, and felt a little surprised in his heart.
"Come, let's toast the deputy gang leader!" Qin Shuang suddenly shouted loudly at this time.
So in the next moment, countless wine glasses were raised in front of Lin Xiao, and Lin Xiao's face collapsed in an instant.
"One cup per person!" Qin Shuang shouted loudly.
"Deputy Gang Leader, we respect you!"
"Deputy Gang Leader, I also respect you!"
"Deputy Helper, have another drink!"
"Deputy Gang Leader ,......"
Lin Xiao drank cup after cup, and the wine he drank with his skill was evaporated almost instantly, but Rao was like this, and after a few rounds of drinking, he still felt a little drunk.
"No, I can't stop it!" Lin Xiao held his forehead with one hand and shook his head vigorously.
Soon, his eyes fell on Qin Shuang and Nie Feng who were smiling evilly, they were good boys, so they wouldn't come with them to rectify Lin Xiao, didn't they see that they were sitting there coolly admiring the color of the wine!
"These two little bastards, look at how I clean you up!" Lin Xiao thought viciously in his heart.
A reception feast soon turned into a group of people pouring wine on each other. Rao is all present in the martial arts, and everyone has a strong internal force, but he doesn't drink wine like wine at all. Or let some people quickly get drunk under the table.
"It's done!" Lin Xiao raised a wine jar and smiled at Qin Shuang and Nie Feng in front of him.
The two with bitter faces looked helplessly at the two wine jars that had been placed in front of them, so they had to sacrifice their lives to accompany the gentleman, and followed Lin Xiao to pick up the jars and pour them.
Drinking is also a science, and honest people are naturally reluctant to waste even a little bit when they drink. However, in a state like this obvious wine-fighting, it can't be so economical.
Lin Xiao almost poured half a jar of wine outside, and only a small half jar looked like a small jar in his mouth.
Compared to Lin Xiao, Qin Shuang and Nie Feng were not ordinary cunning, and the wine they really drank in their stomachs was even worse than Lin Xiao.
The feast lasted all night, and lunch and dinner were connected together. Poured to zuihou almost everyone is unconscious. Fortunately, Nie Feng and their skills are profound, and they will wake up after sleeping for a while.
Lin Xiao was called away by Xiongba when he was halfway through drinking, and since he became the deputy leader of the Tianxia Society, he naturally had to know something about the Tianxia Association. Although Xiongba's trust in Lin Xiao was not even as good as his three apprentices, he handed over the position of deputy gang leader to Lin Xiao, at least to make it clear to him some of the things and powers that the deputy gang leader needed to do.
Lin Xiao was naturally most interested in the power to freely enter and exit certain forbidden places, that was the reason why he really agreed to join the Tianxia Society, and in addition to that, it was the arsenal of the Tianxia Society, and a large number of martial arts in it were also something that Lin Xiao coveted.
In addition to these. Lin Xiao was not interested in any other power or anything like that.
After chatting with Xiongba until late at night, Lin Xiao was going to say goodbye and go back to rest, but who would have thought that Xiongba took him to find Nie Feng and a few of them.
At this time, Nie Feng and the others were lighting a bonfire outside, singing and dancing to celebrate.
Lin Xiao rarely found that Bu Jingyun was also involved, singing and dancing around the bonfire with Nie Feng. Although their singing voices are not very beautiful and beautiful, they are full of the pride of the people in the rivers and lakes.
'Bang Bang Bang~!'
Xiongba smiled and clapped his hands, alarming the people present.
Everyone hurriedly stopped and stood respectfully.
"Master!"
"Helper!"
"Hehehe~! Xiongba's interest was good, and the faces of the three of Nie Feng were full of appreciation, "My three good apprentices of Xiongba." None of them let me down. ”
"I will give you a great reward!" said Xiongba, "the country is easy to obtain, but it is not easy to keep it." I decided to select the right candidate. Run the great country with me!"
As soon as Xiongba's voice fell, when Nie Feng and the three of them didn't have any words, Wen Chougou on the side rushed to help out.
"Oh~!Ugly and ugly, I understand, what the helper means is Young Master Shuang, Young Master Yun and Young Master Feng, right?"
Xiongba turned his head slightly sideways and glanced at him lightly, shook his head and said, "Ugly, you are wrong." ”
The expression on Wen Chou's face froze, and he couldn't help but show an embarrassed look.
Lin Xiao looked at this scene and couldn't help but feel funny. Wen Chouchou is a very smart person, and he knows how to use his cleverness to please Xiongba. He knew what Xiongba really thought, but he deliberately wanted to say so. This acting skills and hard work are also difficult for him.
"The congregation of the world is not only tens of thousands? The old man must abandon his personal interests and go to the public. Xiongba had a serious and serious expression on his face, and at this time almost no one thought that he was lying, "You should understand that victory belongs to the strong!"
"Yes, the helper is wise, the helper is wise!" Wen Ugly echoed vigorously.
Xiongba was already surprised by Wen Chou's ugly set, and he said lightly: "Chouchou, you immediately announce to all the congregations that the hall master selection meeting will be held on the same day, and there must be no mistake!"
"Yes, Chou Chou, let's do it!" With a flattering expression on his face, Wen Chouchou twisted his old waist and turned to go down to do errands.
"Lin Xiao. Xiongba turned his head to look at Lin Xiao on the side, "Then you and I will watch the battle together and choose the most suitable three candidates for the old man!"
"The male gang leader instructed, I should keep my eyes open and choose the most suitable person for the male gang leader!" Lin Xiao smiled and nodded.
"Frost, wind, clouds. Xiongba turned his head to look at his three apprentices, "Are you confident that you can win these three candidates?"
"The disciple will not let the master down!" the three shouted in unison.
"Very well, the old man is waiting to see how you perform. Daxiao turned and left.
Lin Xiao didn't leave with Xiongba, he stayed and chatted with Nie Feng and them for a few words, and then returned to his residence.
He knew very well that this so-called selection meeting was a cover at all, but it was also a necessary cover. It's hard to be a helper, even if you are superior, but you have to consider the thoughts of those who are working hard for you. If Xiongba insists on going his own way and doesn't make any selections, he directly appoints Nie Feng and the three of them as hall masters. The gang below will definitely be extremely unconvinced, and the consequences of this will be extremely serious for a gang.
Xiongba naturally wouldn't be so stupid, so even though he had already set three candidates in his heart, on the surface, he still wanted to sell dog meat on the head of a sheep and make a selection meeting. As he said, in order to put an end to the mouth.
In fact, Xiongba is also confident that in the end, these three places will still fall into the hands of his three disciples.
Looking at the entire Tianxia Society, except for the twelve demons of Tianchi who have never appeared, it is Nie Feng and the three of them who are the strongest, even if they are also with unique skills. His strength is only on par with three people at most.
In other words, except for Broken Waves, none of the gangs in the Tianxia Association could defeat Nie Feng and the three of them.
"This move can't be said to be good, but it can't be said to be bad, it can only be said to be more modest. Lin Xiao thought to himself.
......
The next day, the Tianxia Association was about to hold a selection meeting, and the news of selecting three hall masters for the Tianxia Association was completely spread.
Almost the entire world's nearly 100,000 gangs went crazy, and they never imagined that they could get rid of such an embarrassing identity as an ordinary gang. And this time, it is obviously a chance for them to turn over.
Although this chance seems very slim. But no matter how slim the chance, it's still an opportunity, isn't it?
The announcement was announced, and if there was anyone who was happiest in the world, it would be the breaking of the waves.
Broken waves can be said to have always been depressed in the world, because he is an entry into art. Coupled with that stubborn temper, he offended the male tyrant when he was a child and became the most humble handyman in the world.
Although he has been taken care of by Nie Feng all the time, the life of a handyman since he was a child has also stained the originally pure heart of Broken Waves with layers of shadows. People's personalities are often influenced by the circumstances in which they lived when they were young. The eyes and words of the people around you will affect your personality when you grow up.
A good environment is the foundation for cultivating a healthy mind. If you say a change of position. If the person who was demoted to a miscellaneous servant that day was not Broken Wave but Nie Feng, he might not be as extreme as Broken Wave, but he would never be as aggressive as he is now.
For such a person who has been dormant for many years, such a notice is definitely another dawn in his life.
It's a pity that the dawn of the broken waves is destined not to appear in the World Club, and he is destined to be injured this time.
The day after the announcement was posted, the first preliminary round was held.
Lin Xiao, as the deputy leader of the Tianxia Association, with his status above 10,000 people under one person, also appeared outside the game as the supervisor of this game.
The so-called preliminary competition was not as complicated as Lin Xiao originally imagined, and the entire preliminary competition was only arranged for one day, and it was used to shout directly on stage.
Lin Xiao and Xiongba sat in the back and watched the game, and the ring first gave a slightly sissy introduction to Wen Chou, and then the first game of the preliminary round officially began.
The entire preliminary round needs to select six players for tomorrow's finals, and the process is simple and tedious, at least that's what Lin Xiao thinks.
With the strength of Nie Feng and the three of them, it was almost easy to win their respective opponents, and those who helped the people knew how powerful the three of them were, so they naturally ignored the fact that they were bored with themselves.
After Qin Shuang, who was the first to play, easily defeated an opponent, no one came on stage to fight against him.
Nie Feng, who played later, was the same, almost no one dared to challenge after only winning one.
Surprisingly, the third one on the field was not a step but a broken wave.
Dressed in a miscellaneous uniform and barefooted, Broken Wave did not use his family's eclipse swordsmanship, but only defeated his opponent with ordinary fists and feet.
The hapless opponent was directly broken by the broken wave and broke his hand and leg bones, and fell outside the ring moaning in pain.
"Ruthless!" Lin Xiao couldn't help muttering as he watched this scene.
The male on the side glanced at him, turned his head and looked at the broken waves with a cold gaze.
Obviously, the outstanding performance of Broken Waves made Xiongba very unhappy.
Soon, before the sun set, the preliminary competition was completely over, and the six players who were about to participate in tomorrow's finals were also selected, namely Qin Shuang, Bu Jingyun, Nie Feng, Broken Lang, and the unknown Yang Zhen and Xu Hong won these six places.
Out of disgust with Broken Waves, Wen Chouchou disdained him to call him an inconspicuous little role when he introduced Broken Waves, and in the end, he was trampled on his instep by Broken Waves.
This scene fell in the eyes of Xiongba, which made his dislike of the broken waves even greater.
With such a role that no one in his eyes, how can he be reused?
......
In the evening, Xiongba met with Broken Lang alone, and only he, Wen Chouchou and Broken Lang knew what he said. Of course, Lin Xiao also knew what he would say, which was nothing more than telling Broken Lang that he couldn't win tomorrow's game.
Obviously, the strength of Broken Waves made Xiongba a little worried, although he taught three apprentices, but he always guarded against them. It can be said that they didn't really teach the three of them with their hearts, so whether it was Nie Feng, Qin Shuang, or Bu Jingyun, the strength of the three of them was almost no different from Broken Lang at the moment.
In this way, if tomorrow's game interrupted Lang defeated any of the three disciples, wouldn't it tell the world that the disciple he taught was not as good as a handyman with an introduction to the arts......?
