Chapter 98 [Martial Arts]
The hall was quiet at first, and then the pot was fried, and the old patriarch's voice couldn't be suppressed, and finally Tong opened his mouth, and his voice shook the audience.
The old patriarch panted: "The seventh nephew is reasonable, the stone quality is different, and the test results are indeed unfair...... Whew...... It's just that both Ziyang and Zifeng are rare talents in the family...... There is a way to fight each other, once there is a mistake, no matter which one is an unbearable loss. You can't ...... it."
Luo Ziyang stepped forward to salute the old patriarch first, and then bowed to the two worshippers and said: "As warriors, the two worshippers must know that after a large loss of vitality, an important symbol that determines which of the two warriors is stronger or weaker is the size of the Yuan species. The stronger the genre, the more likely it is to advance, and the stronger it will be after becoming a samurai. Therefore, Ziyang proposed this proposal to let all the clansmen see who has more potential. The family has not been a samurai for decades, and if it is to be released, it must be the strongest!"
Luo Ziyang's words won the two enshrined leaders, and the last sentence resonated with the old patriarch, and nothing could impress the old patriarch more than the appearance of another "Chengzhang Gong" in the family.
So, the old patriarch changed his mind and looked at Luo Xiao and Luo Yangde: "Ziyang proposed an instant martial arts competition, what do you think?"
Luo Xiao responded calmly: "Yes." "He doesn't even ask how to compare, what to compare.
Luo Yangde looked unwilling, and seemed to struggle for a while, before he reluctantly said: "Since the patriarch has an order, Yangde doesn't dare to disobey." β
Luo Xiao gave Luo Yangde's acting skills a thumbs up in his heart, such a performance is in line with the image of a father who is not angry for his son.
The old patriarch discussed it with the two worshippers, and finally came up with a resolution that was a direct confrontation of vitality, with one side admitting defeat or two worshippers deciding to win or lose.
The confrontation of vitality is very simple, that is, abandon fighting, counteract with both palms, and directly fight against vitality. It looks far less intense than the fight, but it's just as dangerous. If there were no two samurai-level worshippers present, they could intervene at any time, and the old patriarch would never agree to this kind of martial arts competition that was very likely to harm the elite children of the family.
With Tong's order, Luo Xiao and Luo Ziyang faced each other, Zama stood still, each stretched out a palm to approach, touch, and finally clasped together...... Well, it looks like it's a bit of a sentiment.
It's just that the two parties will never have such emotions.
Before exerting his strength, Luo Ziyang said in a low voice that only Luo Xiao in front of him could hear: "In the south of the city, in Wukeliu Alley, there are two people with fire folds in their hands. Seventeenth brother, as smart as you, you should know what to do. β
After Luo Ziyang finished speaking, he looked at Luo Xiao with a determined face, and the corners of his mouth raised slightly...... However, he didn't see the panicked or angry look on the seventeenth brother's face that he wanted to see.
Luo Xiao was still so calm: "Do you want to burn it? This is the capital, if you are not afraid of causing a fire, you can just burn it." β
Luo Ziyang was annoyed: "You really don't dare me?" Seventeenth brother, you have thought clearly, that batch of goods is worth 10,000 gold, at least accounting for most of your family's financial resources, if it is burned......
Luo Xiao only said one sentence, which made Luo Ziyang dare not open his mouth again: "My vitality is already slowly recovering, are you sure you want to talk nonsense again?"
Luo Ziyang took the risk of damaging the foundation to quickly absorb the spiritual energy of the lower grade spirit stone, for what? Isn't it just that he wants to recover more vitality in a short period of time to suppress Luo Xiao? If he continues to talk crookedly like this, his efforts and plans will be in vain.
Seeing that Luo Xiao's oil and salt did not enter, Luo Ziyang tightened his fingers and roared: "This is what you asked for yourself - lie down for me!"
Rumble!
A dazzling white light appeared in Luo Ziyang's palm, and where the palms of the two touched each other, a muffled sound suddenly erupted.
Luo Xiao is too familiar with this move--Aoyi Palm Thunder!This is a weakened version of Ben Thunder Palm, which is suitable for close melee raids. Luo Ziyang's trick was used at the right time.
According to the rules of martial arts set by the old patriarch, it should have been gently and slowly confronted with vitality, and in the end, whoever ran out of vitality first would admit defeat. It's just that no one expected that Luo Ziyang would still have enough vitality to suddenly explode and make a mysterious shot.
The white light shone, reflecting the uncertain faces of the two worshippers, and both of them were secretly surprised by Luo Ziyang's determination. It's a desperate gamble, either win or lose. However, in their judgment, this move has a great chance of winning, because in the case of such a huge consumption of vitality, it is difficult to resist such a short and explosive mystery, not to mention that Luo Ziyang also caught his opponent off guard......
The dazzling white light also reflected on Luo Yangbao's well-maintained face, the corners of his eyes were hanging high, the few muscles in his cheeks were torn and deformed, his mouth was wide open, and a cheer was already swirling on the tip of his tongue, ready to come out.
As for the old patriarch, this is not a martial artist, so he didn't react at all.
Luo Xiao sensed how keen, the warrior's body instinct reacted faster than his brain, and the pseudo-Yuan Qi in the dantian instantly tore off the disguise, only mobilized a trace of Yuan Li, and carried it at high speed through the broad meridians, at a speed nearly ten times faster than Luo Ziyang, the last hair came first, surging to the tip of the index finger, and a sharp white light shot out like a high-pressure pump.
As soon as Luo Ziyang's palm thunder exploded, it was penetrated by the sharp white light, the thunder was extinguished, the air explosion was pervasive, the palm pierced, and what was even more terrifying was that an awl-like yuan force followed the meridians of his palm and rushed straight to his empty dantian......
"No!"
Luo Ziyang roared in horror, and a roar that could never be heard by outsiders exploded in his body, and the yuan seed that had shrunk to the size of a grain of rice was like a firecracker that had been ignited, and exploded into a cloud of smoke......
Yuan seed explosion!
Dantian waste!
......
After the competition, Luo Yangbao's father and son left the villa that night, and no one knew whether they would go back to Yinshan County or where they would go.
Luo Xiao, to be precise, Luo's father and son got that valuable resource as they wished.
After handing over the promised mid-grade spirit stone to Luo Xiao, Luo Yangde did not leave, but carefully talked about the meaning of the family, or asked Luo Zifeng (Luo Xiao) to participate in the battle of Tianjiao after the advanced samurai, at least to enter the county battle list.
Luo Xiao was displeased: "The transaction we agreed in advance does not include this item. β
Luo Yangde hurriedly said: "The old man has an idea, Luo Gongzi might as well listen to it and refer to it." β
"You say. β
"Childe should know that there is a waiting list for the county war, right?"
Luo Xiao frowned and said, "The alternate must at least have participated in the county warβspeaking of which, you don't want me to sign up for the war?"
Luo Xiao refused, of course, it was not cowardice, he had also watched many Shengjing Xiuwutang primary election events during this time, and he was confident that even if it was the royal capital of the Hidden Dragon and Crouching Tiger, he could easily be shortlisted. It's just that signing up to participate in the war doesn't do him any good? instead, it delays his cultivation, and he is trading with Luo Yangde's father and son, not with the Luo family, so what's the point of standing up for the Luo family?
Luo Yangde hurriedly shook his hand: "No, no, no...... Uh, just sign up, no need to go to war. β
Luo Xiao was stunned: "What do you say?"
Luo Yangde coughed lightly and said vaguely: "The alternate list is different from the top ten, and it can be replaced......
As Luo Yangde whispered, Luo Xiao was both surprised and speechless.
According to Luo Yangde, there is no limit to the number of candidates for this list, but they must have participated in the county battle and are ranked according to their records. After the end of each county war, some children of families who were eliminated due to their lack of strength did not want to lose the opportunity to show their faces in Beijing as a "court war", so they would choose those guys with ordinary backgrounds and no background from the alternate participants, and use bribery to buy their places. In this way, he will be able to enter Beijing to participate in the Korean War.
Of course, because they are alternates, they will not be able to play if nothing else. In this way, you can show your face in front of the powerful people in Kyoto, and at the same time you don't have to lose face.
This kind of trick has been played for hundreds of years, and it is almost customary, and everyone knows it.
Luo Xiao shrugged: "I don't care, you guys look at it." β
Luo Yangde wiped the sweat from his head, this Luo Gongzi is not ordinary and difficult to speak, fortunately, the matter is finally settled, and the Zong family can also explain the past.
