Chapter 003: Choosing a son-in-law
Changxing City, whose real name is Luoxia City, has been renamed Changxing City since it was set up as the headquarters of the Changxing Gang two hundred years ago, and has a history of more than 200 years. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Gu Yi sat in the carriage, lifted the curtain and looked at the seven or eight zhang high walls of Changxing City, didn't say anything, and began to read the book in his hand again.
The book in his hand is called "Zijin Chronicles", which is a monthly miscellaneous matter set up by the largest chamber of commerce in the Zijin Continent, the 'Baibao Pavilion', and many large and small chambers of commerce. It is a record of all the things that have happened in the Purple Gold Continent in the past month, as well as publications about the names and identities of many masters, as well as the spheres of influence to which they belong.
In the five years since its publication, this publication has been very popular with people in the Purple Gold Continent, and it is very popular because it advertises impartiality and only disseminates news without commenting on it and secretly digging. Even people of different races, as long as they can read the Terran language, want to buy a copy.
What Gu Yi has in his hand is the new issue of "Zijin Chronicles", and a lot of news on it makes him watch it with relish. In general, this publication is not really a news disseminator and more like a gossip magazine.
Because of the timeliness, the above message does not have much effect except for the more detailed records. What really attracts people is more about the collapse and rise of large and small gangs, the emergence or death of a young master, the changes in the territory of major gangs, and ...... Lots of lace gossip!
That's right! For example, someone's wife and concubine steal people, so-and-so seems to be a loyal old-timer picking up ashes, some so-called young geniuses are jealous, and so-and-so masters are romantic...... These are the things that make "Zijin Chronicles" really popular!
People are curious and curious, and they naturally like these lively and ugly things!
As for the parties involved in the incident, there is nothing they can do about "Zijin Chronicles"! First, after five years of ups and downs, this magazine has been accepted by everyone, and even if it wants to deal with it, it can only interfere with one acre and three points of land at most, and can only allow it to spread in the vast majority of places. Instead of covering your ears and stealing the bell, it is better to pretend to be generous!
Moreover, the 'Hundred Treasure Pavilion' and many large and small chambers of commerce also have a lot of useful forces and connections, once this financial route is cut off, it will be difficult to provoke a shame!
Of course, the real taboo things will not be published in "Zijin Chronicles". Especially the unknown secrets, "Zijin Chronicles" will not touch at all. First, there is no 'journalistic spirit' or 'paparazzi spirit' in this world at all; second, the Chamber of Commerce is not guilty of breaking secrets and offending others! The most they do is to write down in detail the secrets that cannot be concealed!
"Childe, the inn has arrived. The voice of the old servant who was driving the carriage came, and the carriage stopped.
"Hmm. Gu Yi walked out of the carriage and looked around. Although it was only morning, the whole inn was full of traffic, and many carriages stopped or left. In addition, there are many young men who are leading horses, and they are handing over the BMW in their hands to the shopkeeper who greeted them.
"It's hilarious. Gu Yi laughed. These young men were young and old, no more than twenty years old, and the young were about the same age as themselves. Presumably, these are all here to participate in the selection of a son-in-law by the **** Xue Niang of the Changxing Gang.
Unlike Gu Yi's indifferent attitude, these young people's attitudes are very different. There are those who are excited and inexplicable, those who think very highly of themselves and feel that they have something in their pockets, those who smile lightly and are very disdainful, and those who are full of ambition and extraordinary self-confidence......
But these have nothing to do with Gu Yi, he came this time just to make soy sauce, and he was ready to leave after watching a few days of farce.
Gu Yi didn't stay in the inn hall for a long time like other young people, and directly took the concierge number to find the shopkeeper in charge.
Long before coming to Changxing City, the Changxing Gang issued all the inn room numbers in the city to the candidates, so there was no need for Gu Yi to find a place to live on his own.
"It turned out to be Gu Gongzi. The shopkeeper took out the account book and checked the door number in Gu Yi's hand, and said with a smile, "Room No. 7." Li San, Li San, you kid take Gu Gongzi to the room!"
"Yes, shopkeeper!" A young man in his teens dressed like an errand boy hurriedly ran over and saluted Gu Yi, "Gu Gongzi, please follow me." ”
"Good. Gu Yi smiled slightly, and followed Xiao Er, who was named Li San, through the hall and towards the guest room.
"Who is that kid?" In the hall, several young people sitting around saw Gu Yi leave, and a fat man with a gorgeous clothes and a wide waist squinted and asked.
"I don't know. Beside him, a young man with a thin figure like a monkey rolled his eyes, "Why don't I go and ask the shopkeeper?"
"Do you think the shopkeeper will tell you?" said a lewd-looking young man on the other side with a disdainful smile.
", Huang Shulang, you're going to quarrel with me, right?"
"Afraid of you?!Hou Jing!"
"Don't make any noise, when Li San comes back, we'll just ask him." The fat man, who was the first to speak, interrupted the argument.
"Yes, Boss Zhu. The two of them were silent for a moment, looked at each other and sat down honestly to eat wine and food.
"Boss Zhu, looking at the situation, Yin Xue Niang is afraid that there will be a lot of people coming over to recruit her son-in-law this time, can you finally win the championship?" Hou Jing turned his eyes and glanced at the young people with different expressions around him, and asked in a low voice.
"What are you afraid of?!Boss Zhu's 'Heaven Swallowing and Chewing Iron Dafa' has been practiced to the third level, and he is already a ninth-order master of the day after tomorrow, how many people are Boss Zhu's opponents right now?!"
"That is, Boss Zhu's 'Heaven Swallowing and Chewing Iron Dafa' is a peerless divine skill, and the third level has already reached the state where King Kong is not bad, presumably no one will be an opponent!" Huang Shulang also grinned and smiled.
This fat man called Zhu Boss was originally named Zhu Dasheng, and he was the only son of Zhu Changsheng, the three leaders of the Changxing Gang.
There are three characteristics of this divine skill: first, after practicing to Xiaocheng, the whole body is not broken, and ordinary swords cannot cut through Zhu Dasheng's flesh and skin at all; second, this magic skill is known for its huge strength and magnificent internal force, and Xiaocheng has a huge force and magnificent internal force that ordinary people can hardly have, and after Xiaocheng, he can eat gold and chew iron; third, this magic skill requires a lot of energy and energy transformation time, in other words, to practice this exercise, you need to be able to eat! More importantly, you need to be able to sleep! Zhu Changsheng eats dozens of times the food of ordinary people in a day, and more than half of the time in a day is sleeping! In this way, Zhu Dasheng gradually became a fat man, like a giant ball of meat!
Similar to his body size, there is also Zhu Dasheng's fiery and obedient temper! Coupled with his narrow-mindedness and moodiness, Zhu Dasheng has become a well-known violent person. If you don't agree with him, you may even be beaten into meat sauce, and someone has once seen him tear out the hearts of his enemies and chew them, which is really terrifying!
And Hou Jing and Huang Shulang beside him are doglegs who have been following him since childhood.
Don't look at Hou Jing and Huang Shulang, who seem to be poor, in fact, their martial arts have also reached the level of the sixth order of the day after tomorrow, and they are both masters among the younger generation! If they couldn't beat Zhu Dasheng and followed each other since childhood, otherwise the two of them would have been able to make a name for themselves.
Zhu Dasheng has always regarded Yin Xue Niang as his intended wife, but he didn't want Yin Xue Niang to openly recruit a son-in-law, and he couldn't change the facts, so he naturally tried his best to win the championship.
It's just that Zhu Dasheng didn't know that Yin Xue Niang's criteria for choosing a husband were not the winner of the competition at all, but had her own considerations.
According to Gu Yi's previous inference, the husband Yin Xue Niang is looking for cannot have martial arts, nor can he be talented, and it is even better to be useless! Only in this way can Yin Xue Niang control her husband and complete her own things.
Only in this way can Mr. Xunhuan, who has been peeping at Yin Xueniang, relax and make more profits!
Or, Yin Xue Niang simply found a kind of scheming kind, and the two sides worked together to deal with all the enemies, and after the victory, then it was up to each to do his best.
Therefore, Gu Yi made up his mind from the beginning to be a candidate who was neither excellent nor mediocre! Only in this way would Yin Xue Niang choose someone else, and Gu Yi would be able to get out of this farce!
============================================
Two days later, Gu Yi followed the bustling crowd of nearly 100 young people to a school field.
"Ladies and gentlemen. At the head of the school field, a few men around thirty years old arched their hands to the people below, "Miss has set up three levels for choosing a son-in-law, one for martial arts, two for political theory, and three for talent, and today's competition is your martial arts!"
"Excuse me, is the winner of the three levels the husband of Miss Yin?" asked an extraordinary-looking young man.
"No!" the thick-eyed man at the head shook his head, "Miss doesn't take the winner of the three games as her son-in-law!"
"Then why do you have to set up three levels?"
"What Miss needs is a husband who attracts Miss among the three of martial arts, talent, and art. Dahan glanced at everyone, "To put it simply, Miss is just looking at your performance in the three levels, if someone can be favored by Miss, it will be Miss's husband, our uncle!"
"Boom~~~" There was a discussion in the school field, and everyone was very puzzled by this strange way of choosing.
However, Gu Yi seems that this method is the best way for Yin Xue Niang. Only in this way will a husband who is prepared by the kimono be chosen. Of course, Gu Yi didn't know Yin Xue Niang's specific plans, what kind of talent would be selected by her! Or perhaps, Yin Xue Niang herself also had her own unique ideas!
After glancing at the audience, Gu Yi could be sure that his martial arts were the strongest among all the people present. Even the fat man standing not far from the left with a bubbling body, and the white-clothed man on the right who was covered with cold air all over his body, would not be his opponent!
The competition ring is also going on, although Gu Yi constantly exposes his strength. But as a child of the Changxing Gang, not knowing martial arts is, at least go up and play it at will.
It's just that what Gu Yi never expected was that many things were not prepared by himself!
