After some investigation, the truth finally surfaced.

It turned out that these 16 contestants did not die of illness or accident, but all of them died of murder!

And the real culprit behind the scenes is actually a certain secular family under Nangongmen!

The motive for killing is also clear, that is, to eliminate competitors before the tournament, so as to increase the probability of their own people being selected.

After discovering this evil act, in order to give everyone justice, Nangongmen cut off the mastermind of the incident on the spot and expelled the family from Nangongmen forever as a warning.

In addition, in order to prevent the recurrence of such incidents, since the next conference, Nangongmen will no longer require participants to provide any information, but instead take the initiative to send a 16-digit identification code to the participating families.

Just ask the participants to come to the conference with their identification code on the day of the conference.

Although this law makes the quota no longer fixed and makes it tradable, it has a positive effect on the protection of participants.

On the one hand, it protects the identity of the participants.

As long as the patriarch doesn't reveal it, no one knows who will end up in the competition. Even if someone wants to do it, they don't know who to rush.

On the other hand, it is also equivalent to giving the family a guarantee.

Even if something happens to the original participant, someone else can take the place of the participant. Unless a competitor kills all the people of that clan, it is impossible to reduce the number of participants.

As a result, since the implementation of this method, there have been no deaths among participants, and everyone has returned to a relatively fair starting line.

......

After coming to the entrance of the stadium and verifying the sixteen-digit identification code in their hands with the two men in black, Shanhe and Qin Xiaodou walked into the field one after another.

Due to the delay of the two outside, almost all the contestants were already standing in the hall when they entered.

With a sweep of the eyes, there were only forty or fifty contestants this year, which was much less than Shanhe expected.

And basically they are all young people, the youngest is about fifteen or sixteen years old, and the oldest is no more than thirty.

In terms of gender, men are the majority, accounting for the vast majority, and female contestants, including Xiaodou, are only six or seven.

After browsing the general situation, Shanhe and Xiaodou continued to walk towards the back of the arena.

At the same time, his eyes also swept to the "rostrum" located directly east of the basketball hall, where a few simple tables and chairs were placed.

There were five of them, four men and one woman, all of whom looked young.

At this moment, the woman was the only one sitting in the chair, and the other four men were all standing around, as if discussing something.

Seeing this, Shanhe quickly guessed that this woman should be the highest-ranking one among the five, and she might be today's chief examiner. So he narrowed his eyes and quickly focused his gaze on the woman.

The woman was in her twenties, and wore a long-sleeved blouse with a flat collar and tight buttons. Obviously, the high temperature of more than 30 degrees in the museum seems to be of no concern to her.

She also had a packet of unreadable snacks in her hand, and she stuffed a piece into her mouth every few seconds, as if she were also a foodie.

Looking at her face again, above the white and red skin, there were a pair of big crystal clear eyes, flashing with aura.

Under the delicate pointed nose, the red and tender little mouth is also open and closed, which looks both seductive and beautiful. With such a appearance, it can definitely be regarded as bright and moving, and the sky is stunning.

However, the moment Shanhe saw this woman's appearance, his heart suddenly burst out on the spot!

This is not because he was moved by his heart, but because this woman is Nangong Qing, the young master of Nangong Gate, who has had a relationship with him!

Seeing that this woman actually appeared in the venue, Shanhe immediately secretly said, "Unlucky!"

Nuo is a big Nangong Gate, known as a thousand disciples, of which only three know him.

But on the first day of dealing with it, I met an acquaintance by myself, and this luck is really no one!

After shaking his head, the melancholy Shanhe muttered casually:

Now that Nangong Qing is here, Yin Che, who fought with him, shouldn't he also come?

When I looked up, he really guessed correctly.

Yin Che, who was dressed in a tunic suit, was standing behind Nangong Qing at the moment, discussing something with the other three.

Seeing this, Shanhe showed a bitter face on the spot. In addition to sighing, it is inevitable that there will be a slight tension in my heart.

"Hey, you two just came in. Yes, it's just the two of you! ”

Just when Shanhe peeked at the rostrum, the tall man in charge of the registration work among the five people also happened to see Shan and Qin who had just walked into the hall, so he beckoned.

As the voice sounded, Nangong Qing and Yin Che's eyes also turned to Shanhe and Xiaodou at the same time.

After feeling the other party's gaze, although he has changed his appearance, Shanhe still can't deal with it calmly, for fear that the other party will recognize him.

Not only did my heart beat faster, my mouth and tongue were dry, but my face also became hot. If it weren't for Xiaodou pulling him by the side, he would have been a little unable to move his legs.

"Cut! That's it, and you're still coming to the competition?Alas, the secular world...... That's enough. ”

After seeing the embarrassing appearance of Shanhe, Nangong Qing only thought that the man had never seen the world, and was frightened like this, so she muttered contemptuously.

Then, she moved her gaze from Shanhe's body to other places, and it was obvious that she didn't find any clues.

Seeing that Nangong Qing finally stopped looking at herself, Shanhe breathed a sigh of relief.

At the moment of relief, he hurriedly walked to the rostrum and started the "registration" work with Xiaodou.

"Come one by one, you wait in the back. ”

After the tall man pointed to the mountains and rivers, he faced Qin Xiaodou, holding something similar to a tablet, and began his inquiry.

"Show me your identification code. ”

Hearing this, Qin Xiaodou hurriedly handed the note in his hand to the other party.

The tall man scanned the note with **, and after confirming that the identification code was correct, he continued:

"Well, okay. Now you are not allowed to conceal or lie when I ask what I ask, and if you find out that there is a mistake, you will be disqualified, do you understand?"

Seeing that it was a background check, not to mention Qin Xiaodou, even the mountains and rivers behind her became nervous. With full of worry, after secretly glancing at each other, Xiaodou nodded stubbornly.

Then I heard the tall man ask:

"Name?"

"My name is ...... Dou Xiaoqin. ”

"What are those three words?"

"Dou'e's Dou, small in size, playing the piano. ”

"Where do you live?"

"Green Pine City. ”

"Have you ever practiced before?"

"Nope. ”

"Do you know anyone who cultivates before?"

"Practitioners, I, I ......"

After hearing this question, Qin Xiaodou suddenly frowned, and his face also showed hesitation.
