Chapter 136 At the Tournament
"Brother, do you know who is participating in this martial arts competition?" For some reason, Fang Zhou felt an inexplicable excitement in his heart.
"I don't know exactly who will be there, but I did hear that there were one or two powerful people participating." The waiter in the store was talking and said to Yi and Wen as if he had thought of something else: "The two guests want to go.
If you participate, remember to bring your luggage. In order to prevent participants from having too much contact with the outside world, they will provide hotel accommodation."
Yi and Wen nodded after hearing this, but their thoughts were not on the waiter's words at all.
It was too coincidental that they had just come out of the Beast King's Tomb, and something like the "Beast King's Secret Book" appeared. Could it be that people from the Wenqiu Sect had been to the Beast King's Tomb before them?
After Yi and Wen chatted with the waiter for a while, they paid and left. After eating and drinking, they naturally wanted to find a place to stay. Before looking for an inn, the two of them went to take a look at the notice distributed by Wen Qiu.
The day after tomorrow is the elimination round, and tomorrow is their last chance to register.
"Oh, I feel like I can clean up for a while. I've been a bit overwhelmed with things lately." When they got to the room, Yi Wen lay down on the bed and stretched out.
"What do you think of the secret code that the waiter mentioned just now?" Fang Zhou thought for a while and asked.
"What do you think? It's best to win it back, so you can study it. Didn't the waiter in the shop say that? There are some incomprehensible words on it. There shouldn't be too strong an opponent. I guess you are the only one in the world who can do it.
You understand what is written on it." Yi Wen thought for a while and said.
"Secret Code..."
Fang Zhou muttered something. Ever since he saw familiar words in the Beast King's tomb, Fang Zhou was very concerned about those words that others couldn't understand. Maybe he could find what he wanted from them?
After a night of silence, Yi Wen and Fang Zhou packed their things and set off for the Wenqiu Sect's registration point the next day.
In the central area of Wenqiu City, a huge square is located here, where many onlookers gathered for this martial arts competition.
Although the official competition will only start tomorrow, the atmosphere has already started. The entire square has been divided into nine areas, including a competition area and multiple viewing areas.
Judging from the number of people in Wenqiu City, the seats arranged in this square are far from enough. Before, Yi Wen was still thinking about how the Wenqiu Sect could make money by establishing a sect in the city. Now it seems that he is still too young. As long as he is determined to make money, there are always ways.
More than difficult.
After Yi and Wen found the registration place, they followed the team and moved forward slowly.
Judging from the current number of people, the number of people in this martial arts competition should not be too many. When it was Yi Wen's turn to sign up, he casually glanced at the list and saw that there were about fifty people participating in this martial arts competition. It is worth mentioning that
There are three other contestants who are disciples of the Wenqiu Sect.
As the waiter in the store said before, the martial arts competitions in previous years always had more than a hundred people. It seems that this time the "Secret Code of the Beast King", which even some experts cannot translate, has not attracted too much attention.
After Yi Wen and Fang Zhou reported their names and ages, the person responsible for recording looked at them strangely. Maybe there were very few people of their age among previous contestants.
"Do you know that you have to sign a life and death certificate when you come to this arena?" the person in charge of recording asked casually.
Yi Wen and Fang Zhou nodded. Of course, the waiter in the shop had already discussed this matter in advance, and Yi Wen and Fang Zhou had already been mentally prepared.
They also hoped to improve themselves through the martial arts tournament this time, so Yi Wen decided to use the spear provided by the organizer this time. He would not use the Wujin Warden unless he really needed it.
Using Wu Jin Warden's words, Yi Wen is not false at all.
In a duel to the death, it would not be good for him to rely too much on the warden.
After the registration was completed, Yi and Wen signed a life and death certificate, and all the processes so far were considered over. After the process, Yi and Wen were told that they would be searched and live in a place designated by the Wenqiu sect. This was to prevent them from participating in the competition.
Personnel have too much contact with the outside world, thereby reducing the chance of cheating.
Yi Wen and the others didn't understand why there were so many rules since it was a life and death duel.
After Yi and Wen were searched, they arrived at the residence designated by the Wenqiu Sect.
The inn designated by Wenqiu Sect is indeed much more grand. Not only is the room much larger, but there is also a huge rockery surrounded by a pool in the inn's courtyard.
Fish that I have never seen before.
"It seems like we are here to enjoy the mountains and rivers." Yi and Wen sat on the edge of the rockery and teased the fish.
"A country bumpkin should just stay in the countryside. What are you doing in a place like this? Are you going to help me shine my shoes?" An annoying voice came from the side while Yi and Wen were enjoying the fish.
I saw that the man was dressed in luxurious clothes, and there were even two maids behind him. If this man is indeed attractive in terms of appearance, the nobility on his body is not deliberately dressed up, but it is a pity that he has a bad mouth.
In a place where no one or anything other than yourself and weapons can be brought in, this person was able to bring in two maids in an open and honest manner. It seems that this person has some connections.
However, what Yi and Wen are least afraid of is this kind of dandy.
"You brought two maids here to carry your coffin tomorrow?" Yi Wen curled his lips and then ignored that person.
"You!... A poor man should behave like a poor man. Kneel down and apologize. Tomorrow, I can make your death look nicer." The man had forgotten how long it had been since he had been scolded like this. He was deeply moved.
After taking a breath, he pointed at Yi Wen's nose and yelled.
Yi Wen and Fang Zhou almost laughed out loud after hearing what the man said, shook their heads and walked away.
Seeing the attitude of Yi and Wen, the man was naturally unhappy. He waved the iron fan in his hand and three needles flew towards Yi and Wen.
It was late and then fast, just when everyone watching the show thought that Yi and Wen were going to suffer, Fang Zhou turned sideways.
Draw out the sword! Put it into the sheath! All three hidden weapons were cut in half with one sword!
"Iron is sharpened like clay! What a great knife!" At this time, people watching the show, leaning against a pillar not far away, looked at the knife in Fang Zhou's hand in surprise, squinting their eyes and not knowing what they were thinking.
"What's the matter? I'll see Zhenzhang in the ring tomorrow. Don't act wild here." Just when the man was about to attack again, a voice came from the second floor.
Yi Wen never even turned his head once from beginning to end. Fang Zhou glanced at the man indifferently and then went upstairs with Yi Wen.
The man leaning against the pillar saw Yi and Wen going upstairs and followed them upstairs.
As soon as Yi and Wen entered the room, there was a knock on the door.
"Please come in." Fang Zhou glanced at the door suspiciously and said.
After the door was gently pushed open, a man walked in. I saw that this man was slightly taller than Fang Zhou, and his figure looked explosive, but there was no feeling between his eyebrows that was unique to a martial arts practitioner, and his clothes and temperament gave people the impression that
More like a scholar.
After the man came in, he glanced at Yu Fengxing who was on the table, clasped his fists at Yi and Wen and said, "Brothers, I'm Ning Huaide."
Yi Wen and Fang Zhou also returned the greeting with clasped fists and announced their homes.
Yi Wen had some impression of this man. When Fang Zhou turned around to confront the young master, the man had been looking at Fang Zhou. Yi Wen had some influence on people.
After the man came in, he glanced at the knife that Fang Zhou put on the table, smiled and said, "Brother Fang Zhou is very skilled. I am also one of the contestants. I hope to compete with my brother in the ring tomorrow."
"Brother Ning has an extraordinary temperament and seems to be a master. Let's learn from each other." Fang Zhou said with a smile.
Ning Huaide smiled and nodded, bowed slightly and exited the room.
There are fifty-seven contestants in this tournament. There will be one bye in the two-by-two duel. On the first day, fifteen people will be selected to advance to the second day of the competition. After that, there will be a competition every day until the champion is determined.
"What do you think of this person?" Fang Zhou turned around and asked after Ning Huaide exited the room.
"I can't tell the depth. This person is a bit like Brother Wei Li. He feels unfathomable and may be a strong opponent. And that young master, although his strength is average, is good at using hidden weapons. Be careful when you encounter him." Yi Wen said.
"Forget it is unfathomable, Wei Li is an insidious guy." Fang Zhou rolled his eyes when he thought of Wei Li's appearance.
Yi Wen curled his lips in disbelief after hearing Fang Zhou's evaluation.
At the same time, the junction of Shanhai County and Yunbian County
Two men were driving a carriage with a woman, two girls and a boy heading north when the man driving the carriage suddenly sneezed twice in succession.
A strong man next to the man driving the carriage saw the man sneezing, so he emptied his baggage and draped the baggage skin over the man.
"I'm fine. I guess someone scolded me." The man smiled and said.
"This is my first time going out to Yunbian County!" The younger girl on the carriage looked at the scenery outside the window excitedly. Although the scenery was similar, she was obviously very happy for her first trip away.
"There are many fun places to visit in Luoshenzhou!" the older girl said with a smile.
"Sister, have you been to Luoshenzhou?" The boy asked curiously, holding a small box of candy and looking at the girl with wide eyes. In the world of children, he is always full of curiosity about which "legendary" big cities.
"Well... I've never been there! But big cities are very fun! It's at least ten times bigger than the Yunling City we just passed by." The girl smiled awkwardly and said.
"Sister, what is ten times?" the boy asked curiously.
"Ten times...so big..." the woman in the car made a circle with her hands and said, but obviously the boy didn't understand.
The girl said, picking up a candy from the boy's box and saying, "Ten times. If the candy you eat is Yunling City, then Yong'an City is as big as ten candies!"
After seeing her finish, another girl put the candy into her mouth and said with a pout, "Sister Xiaoyu, you stole Xiaojin's candy again!"
The people on the carriage were none other than Mao Yu and others.
Ever since they heard that something happened to Yi Wen and others, Mao Yu, Yi Qiao and Xiao Jin had been unhappy in the village all day long. Jiang Tianyuan and others were worried that Mao Yu had some evil idea and took Yi Qiao and others to find Yi Wen.
and Fangzhou. They simply asked Wei Li to take them to Yong'an City for a visit. Of course, the two followers Dasha and Xiaohua also followed.
Anyway, there is no harm in taking them out to see things, and Wei Li can also come out and have fun and relax.
Chapter completed!
