Chapter 140: A Tempting Scent
Seeing Ji Meiqiu regain her composure so quickly, there was a slight exclamation on the noon gate, and silence immediately returned. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info this person thought that no one knew about his secret sigh, but he was caught by someone with a heart.
Ji Meiqiu's movements to tidy up the reindeer were fast, but she started a quarter of an hour late. When he placed the reindeer on the barbecue grill, the square rose with a rich aroma of barbecue.
A scorching smell wafted out of the fragrance, and the prince beside Ji Meiqiu scolded hatefully: "The wild life of bullshit, will Lao Tzu be reduced to such a state? ”
Before Shizi's words fell, a translucent huge handprint appeared in the Wumen City Tower, which quickly descended on the top of Shizi's head, grabbed him and threw him out of the examination room, and at the same time, a cold voice sounded over the square: "Disrespect to the emperor should be a capital crime." Thinking that you participated in the World Son Contest today, I will be punished slightly, your cultivation will be abolished, and the Linchuan Kingdom will be permanently disqualified from participating in the World Son Competition. ”
Ji Meiqiu heard it, this was the voice of the Eight Sages King. Zhao Defang revealed his unpredictable cultivation, and a wave of cheers suddenly sounded in the square: "Long live the Great Emperor!" "Eight Sages King Chitose!"
There was still a buzzing discussion in the test room just now, and these people suddenly became like ducks stuck in their necks, concentrating on dealing with the reindeer in their hands.
Most of the hourglass had fallen, and nearly half of the world's sons in the field left the square dejectedly. These people either scorched the reindeer, or they didn't know where to start, and they couldn't calm down in the countless mocking gazes, so they had to slip away.
By the time less than one percent of the hourglass remained, most of the princes had already stopped and stood proudly with their hands down, waiting for the taster to appear. Ji Meiqiu also took out the jade bottle and carried out the final process: spraying snow mushroom powder.
Suddenly, a faint fragrance mixed with the rich fragrance wafted over the square. Suddenly, tens of thousands of onlookers sounded in their throats: "grunt"; the fragrance wafted to the noon gate tower, and this group of advanced cultivators appeared shocked, and their surprised eyes searched for the source of the fragrance; even the depressed Emperor Taizu stood unexpectedly and stared at Ji Meiqiu, who had just stopped.
The cold gaze had already seen that it was a miracle created by Ji Meiqiu, and with a flick of the index finger of his right hand, a small light cluster was quickly thrown towards Ji Meiqiu, and the emperor who had just stood up spit out lightly: "��" sound, and the sound dispersed the light cluster more quickly.
looked at the Great Emperor with a cold gaze, only to see that the Great Emperor's face was even paler.
At this time, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites announced loudly: "The competition is over, and the prince who participated in the competition will leave the field." ”
The impatient tasters quickly lined up at the edge of the competition venue in the order they had arranged in advance. With the order of the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, the taster grabbed the barbecue from the grill one by one and stuffed it into his mouth.
Countless envious eyes in the square stared at them,
After every 100 people tasted the barbecue of 10 people, after eating a circle, they returned to the starting point and threw the pebbles in their hands to the barbecue that they were most satisfied with.
According to the rules of the competition, after the end of this round of competition, according to the number of stones each son gets, fifty percent of the sons will be eliminated. But there were three groups that were embarrassing to the Ministry of Rites: 100 stones were concentrated on a grill.
In other words, there were three particularly prominent barbecues that made all the tasters throw stones at him.
The waiter of the Ministry of Rites, who presided over the competition, announced: The first, third, fifth, and sixth groups did not get the stone of the prince to re-compete. There was an uproar in the square, and the onlookers did not know that this situation had long been expected by the Ministry of Rites.
The emperor did not continue to watch the competition, but whispered to Zhao Defang: "Take him into the palace for me." Then he walked up and down the tower.
His cold eyes stared at the direction of the Emperor's departure, and a strange smile appeared on his face.
Ji Meiqiu and Snow Leopard qualified in the first round, and they did not linger in the square because Ji Meiqiu sensed danger.
"Meiqiu, how did you do it?" Zhao Defang then went home, and hurriedly said to Ji Meiqiu when he entered the door: "With such good craftsmanship, you really have to hide it." ”
Ji Meiqiu said strangely: "Lord Wang, I remember that I gave you a jade bottle, didn't you give it to the imperial chef?"
"Is this it?" Zhao Defang took out a jade bottle and said, "You did say that you sprinkled a little when you barbecued meat, but you didn't pay attention." Now that I think about it, I regret it a little. ”
Ji Meiqiu smiled: "I'll be in charge of today's lunch." ”
Zhao Defang smiled mysteriously and said, "Someone remembers your barbecue, go with the lonely." ”
Seeing Ji Meiqiu and Zhao Defang going out, Xue Yan chased out and said, "Tianya, Lord Wang, I will also go with you." ”
Zhao Defang looked back and smiled: "Do you know where the lonely king went?"
Xue Yanjiao smiled and said, "Lord Wang, you won't go to the Qinglou, right?"
Someone next to him shouted loudly: "Bold, don't you want to live?"
Zhao Defang waved his hand and said, "It's okay, okay, you can go too." ”
It wasn't until she entered the Imperial Palace that Xue Yan knew that she was really too Meng Lang. After entering the noon gate, her pretty face was pale, and she nervously grabbed Ji Meiqiu's arm.
Entering the Heart Nourishing Palace, Emperor Taizu's sluggish demeanor disappeared completely, and he looked at Ji Meiqiu and Xueyan lovingly. Without being called, he brought someone to meet the emperor, except for Zhao Defang in front of him, the entire empire may not be able to find a second person.
When Xue Yan saw Zhao Kuangyin, her legs were weak, and even though she wanted to kneel, she saw that Ji Meiqiu just hugged her fists and gave her hands, her competitiveness rose, and she blessed Zhao Kuangyin with a blessing, and gave an ordinary courtesy to meet her elders.
Zhao Kuangyin laughed when he saw this: "Yes, frank and innocent, I like it." This is the Snow Swallow Princess of Da Chu, right?"
Seeing that Zhao Kuangyin was not as terrible as the legend, Xue Yan regained her naughty temperament, and said with a smile: "Da Chu Xue Yan has seen the Great Emperor, and the Great Emperor is so cute. ”
"Lovely. Zhao Kuangyin said happily: "How many years, I have forgotten these two words, and today I actually heard them from the mouth of the little girl Xueyan." Okay, I'll talk about you later. Then he said to Ji Meiqiu seriously: "Are you sure about the next level?"
"Is the emperor talking about qualifying, or the first place?" Ji Meiqiu and Zhao Kuangyin are familiar with each other, so they naturally deal with them as mature people.
"Good boy, you still sell Guanzi. Zhao Kuangyin said happily: "Are you sure you will win the first place?"
"Fifty percent. ”
"Okay, there is still one level in the World Son Competition, and Meiqiu must strive to enter the top ten. Zhao Kuangyin made a request without doubt.
Ji Meiqiu said heroically: "If you can't enter the top ten, Meiqiu will accept the emperor's punishment." ”
"I know your strength, and it is not easy to challenge the general with a high-level martial artist. Zhao Kuangyin said in a deep voice: "This time the Sumeru space is ready to be open for a year, and the opportunity should not be missed." As for the affairs of the Flame Kingdom, you can rest assured, I am ready to send the Lushu army of the Great Song Dynasty to go. ”
"Lushu Legion?" Ji Meiqiu was shocked: "Could it be that something big happened in the Flame Kingdom?"
If something happens in the Flame Kingdom, Ji Meiqiu will definitely rush back, and the matter of the Sumeru space can only be put aside.
