The Qizhong branch is located in the northwest corner of the south city of the town. The walls to the west and north are the city walls, and there is a horse trail leading directly to the top of the city wall. ?? ?? w?w w?．
?During the war, this was a cavalry barracks, part of the Zhennan city defense.
The state pastoral office is in the southwest corner, the Magician's Guild's Magic Branch is in the northeast corner, and in the southeast corner is a huge water village. The four corners of the town's south city are all military or paramilitary buildings, forming a complete
defense system.
Ding Kui followed Teng Yan to the Central Riding Division to register. Unlike the county competition, contestants from twenty counties came to register almost at the same time. There were many people gathered and the scene was very lively.
Apart from fellow players from Pingzhong County, Ding Kui only knew Jiang Ang from Zhenjiang County. He wanted to go up and say hello to him, but when Jiang Ang saw Ding Kui, he lowered his head to avoid him, obviously unwilling to face someone who could defeat him with one move.
people.
Is this kid afraid of being beaten by me? He doesn't want to meet me. There are so many handsome men and beauties, but I don't know any of them. Except for that little turtle, the genius boy is destined to be lonely.
It's not that everyone in this world is good-looking, but the players who come to participate in the state competition are elites trained by the aristocratic class. They are all very good-looking, and Ding Kui's eyes are dazzled by them.
While Ding Kui was observing the crowd around him, there were also people observing him, including a man and a woman who walked directly towards him.
Ding Kui, who was looking around, saw two people approaching him. The man was about the same height as Feng Liang, with a dignified appearance and a strong build; the woman was half a head shorter, with a dashing appearance and slender limbs.
The two men looked at Ding Kui with bright eyes and clear eyes. They walked with steady steps, the same distance and the same pace. They didn't look like they were coming to find trouble.
Who are they? They look like they want to talk to me. They can't be fans who come here because of their reputation, right? Haha, do I also have the spirit of a bastard in me?
Thinking of this, Ding Kui couldn't help but feel a little proud, with a strange smile on his face.
At this time, the two of them had already walked in front of Ding Kui. The man raised his hand to Ding Kui and asked, "Excuse me, are you the heir apparent of the Protector of the Country, the young master of the Ding family?"
"Yes, I am Ding Kui. You two..." Before Ding Kui finished speaking, the man and woman bowed to him and said in unison: "Nephew (niece) pays homage to my cousin."
This time Ding Kui was completely confused.
People nearby, both familiar and unknown, looked over with curious eyes.
Ba Xi reached out and touched Ji Xing's head and asked, "Those two people look a little bigger than the little man. Why do they call them cousin?"
Ji Xing pushed Ba Xi's hand away impatiently and said with a dark face: "How many times have I told you not to touch my head, especially when there are many people, but why don't you listen? Mr. Xiaohou is of high seniority, and there are people
There's nothing strange about calling him cousin."
"Oh, it just happened to go well, I couldn't hold it back." Ba Xi said innocently.
"Ah! Your surname is Jiang." Ding Kui suddenly realized that the only person who could call him cousin was a relative on his mother's side. It was only natural that Anguo County would send a contestant named Jiang.
"That's right, my nephew Jiang Cao and his cousin paid their respects to my cousin on the orders of the clan elders." Jiang Cao said respectfully.
Little cousin? Why does it sound so weird? It’s so close to little cousin.
Ding Kui felt guilty in his heart.
"Well," Ding Kui met the juniors who were older than him for the first time and didn't know how to call them, "By the way, are your elders here? I should go and pay a visit."
"The clan elder is at home and did not come to Zhoucheng with him this time. If my cousin wants to see him, he can go to Anguo County at any time." Jiang Yu answered from the side.
Not far away, there were two people who looked exactly the same, staring at everything that happened to Ding Kui.
"Brother Le, judging from this situation, the Jiang family will definitely join forces with Ding Kui. Anguo County has a strong reinforcement this year. It will not be easy to defeat them." Xun Yue bumped Xun Le's shoulder with his arm. .
"Brother Yue, this situation should have been expected a long time ago. Did you just react now? Don't worry, let me be the seed player, brother, and you, who are slightly stronger, can go head-to-head with Ding Kui or Jiang Yu, and the difficulty will be greatly reduced." The corner of Xun Le's mouth curved into a smile of success.
"No one in the Xun family is like you. They use their scheming to plot against their own people. If you have the ability, you can plot against them." Xun Yue pointed to Ding Kui, "Can you plot Ding Kui and Jiang Yu into the same group?" , I will let you be the seeded player."
"Impossible. Whether they can be in the same group is a matter of luck and cannot be calculated at all. If it doesn't work out, we will draw lots and the one we catch will be the seed player." Xun Le curled his lips.
Xun Yue reached out and gave Xun Le a slap and said, "Okay, that's it, draw lots."
Gongsun Qi, who had a scar on his forehead, looked at Ding Kui and the others sinisterly, clenching his fists with both hands: I will definitely defeat you, just wait and see.
"Brother Zhan, it seems they have joined forces." Yang Ling's bags under his eyes were a bit big and he looked like he didn't sleep well at night.
Yang Zhan turned his head, stopped looking at Ding Kui, glanced at the team leader of Dingguo County, and said: "Let's go, the president has completed the registration. The knight competition is about personal strength, and I have no ability to compete with anyone." There's no point in joining forces, so stop meddling in other people's business."
At another high point in the crowd, the beautiful girl with big eyes was still following beside him.
"Brother, the master of 'barbell' looks so young. Is he really the number one in Pingzhong County?" said the girl with big eyes.
"Didn't you see that big guy with a black face and a bald head? He seems to be a little taller than me. That guy should be very exciting. Hehe, it would be great if we could meet him and have a fight." This man is as tall as Ba Xi. The tall boy said.
"Long Tan! Didn't you hear what I was talking to you? I'm talking to you about Ding Kui." The girl with big eyes jumped up and tried to pull Long Tan's ears.
Long Tan quickly stretched out his hands and pressed the big-eyed girl's shoulders, saying: "Xiaoyan, don't make trouble, there are outsiders all around.
Who? Who? Ding Kui? Ah, he is indeed very young. I heard that he is only one year older than you and he is not bad looking. How about you marry him and our family will become in-laws with the Ding family."
"Screw you, your sister is only fourteen. Long Tan, tell me honestly, do you hate me so much that you want to marry me off so early?" Long Yan pretended to stare at Long Tan with a fierce expression.
"Haha, how could it be? My brother loves Xiaoyan the most. How can a family who finds a good in-law for you hate you? I heard that Ding Kui's mother is no longer here. There must be no vicious mother-in-law in the family. You will definitely not marry her. Being bullied." Long Tan touched his head and pretended to be stupid.
"Really?" Long Yan turned his attention to Ding Kui again, "Maybe it's not bad. I only like heroes who stand upright."
Ding Kui pulled Jiang Cao, and Jiang Yu stepped aside and whispered: "You can't help it when there are many people, but you can call me Ding Kui in private. My little cousin calls me old if you call me that."
Jiang Cao and Jiang Yu looked at each other, holding back their smiles and said: "Little cousin, we must not mess up this generation, otherwise the clan elders will punish us with family laws. You have never seen the clan elders. If someone violates the family rules,
, there is no mercy in front of him."
"Yes, yes, my brother's ass was beaten to pieces." Jiang Yu spoke without hesitation.
"Oh, why are you saying this? You're not afraid of my little cousin's jokes." Jiang Cao said with a black line on his forehead.
"Haha, I'm talking in private, just don't let others hear. By the way, I haven't been to Anguo County yet. What is the seniority of the clan leader? What should I call you? What fun things are there in Anguo County?
Place?" Ding Kui tried hard to change the subject.
Ding Kui and the Jiang family members were muttering to each other. In the eyes of most people, it was normal. The relationship between the two families was there. It would be news if they had a conflict.
"Hurry up and inform those idiots. Either remove Ding Kui's odds or lower his odds. Isn't the lesson learned from Pingzhong County Gambling House profound enough?" Shaodian Jian was angry and said angrily.
Say it to Master Jiang.
The entire Zhenna City is actually Shao Dianjian's territory, and his shadow is behind many industries.
The gambling houses in Zhoucheng did not list Ding Kui as the favorite at first, and treated him as the number one player in Pingzhong County. However, they soon made adjustments. The odds of Ding Kui winning the state championship were one to one.
Second, the odds of winning the national championship are 1 to 1.
"Look, I said I was late." Old Qiantou looked at Ding Kun regretfully.
"Forget it, I won't buy it if you can't make it cheap. It seems that making the young master's money in the gambling house can only be a one-time deal, and there will be no chance in the future." Ding Kun threw away the money bag in his hand, "Old Bu, don't you dare?
Do you dare to drink with me?"
"Go away, although the young master has gone to the Qizhong branch and we don't need to worry about safety, there are some strange people near Zhuoshui Street. I want to find out what their purpose is." Old Qiantou told Ding
Kun rolled his eyes.
Of course, no one could see his white eyes even if he was a little further away.
The rules of the state competition and the county competition are similar. Once the players enter the Cavalry Division, they cannot come out at will. The security is naturally the responsibility of the Cavalry Division. Sneaking into the Cavalry Branch to carry out assassinations will have to face the pursuit of knights from all over the country, no matter what
Neither the individual nor the family can bear it.
Yunzhong Inn, Zhuoshui Street.
"Shopkeeper Shi, the young master told me that the Ding family will pay for everyone's tickets. You have to accept the money." Ding Xiao forced the money bag in his hand to Shi Heng.
"No way, Miss Ding Xiao, let's give this opportunity to invite everyone to watch the game to us Shijia. Those young masters and ladies usually don't think highly of Shijia. It's difficult for me to say a word to them. It's even worse to expect them to accept Shijia's favor.
It's even more difficult. It's rare to have such a good excuse nowadays, and Shi Heng won't miss it no matter what." Shi Heng quickly pushed the money bag back to Ding Xiao.
"You are embarrassing me like this. The young master will blame me if he finds out." Ding Xiao looked embarrassed.
"How about this, Miss Ding Xiao, you keep the money first, and when the prince comes back, you can report it to him. If the prince really doesn't agree, it's not too late to give the money to me. I'm begging you, Shi.
