Nan and Mu didn't know what the junior brother was thinking, and they didn't notice the difference in Yu Qing's expression. They both stared at the background wall, and soon found another "Thirteen" printed upside down on the wall.
number.
Nanzhu raised his finger and said, "Lao Jiu, that's right. Look, there is another 'Thirteen' there. What's the name on the escort?"
When Yu Qing heard this, his eyes focused and looked away. The writing on the dart hanging there seemed too small to be seen clearly.
The three brothers tried their best to see, but they still could not see clearly.
Baili Xin, who was staring at the stage from the side, said, "My name is Wu Ji. I seem to be my next door neighbor."
The three brothers and sisters immediately looked at her and found that the great archer's eyesight was indeed extraordinary. Even Yu Qing, who had practiced Guanzi Jue, felt inferior to him.
But, is there anyone named "Wu Ji" among the neighbors?
They all knew a few people in the small building in Chan Shaoting, and the rest were from Keran's small building and had little contact with them.
The three brothers immediately looked around and happened to see Keran in the crowd looking towards them.
Keran nodded in this direction with a smile on his face, pointed at a man next to him, and then pointed at Mu Aotie, which seemed to confirm Baili Xin's words.
The eyes of the senior fellow apprentices immediately focused on the man named "Wu Ji" and they examined him carefully.
It's hard to think about it or not. The competition in the Chaoyang Conference is not limited to life and death. If there is any mistake, the organizer of the conference will not be held responsible. The purpose is to allow the participants to do their best.
After a while, Nanzhu was also called to the stage, and he came back with the "41" sign.
With Mu Aotie's experience, after he saw his number plate on the stage, he directly found his opponent's name on the darts on the corresponding numbers revealed on the stage.
Returning to his companion, Nanzhu muttered, "It's our neighbor again, it's Xiao Changdao who is next door."
Neighbors again? Yu Qing and others were a little surprised, but after thinking about it, they felt that it was not too surprising. There were only eighty-nine people in Dingyin District participating in the competition, and the three neighbors on the top of the mountain accounted for ten of them.
It's really normal for the two of them to bump into each other.
The problem is that the three brothers all know what kind of thing Xiao Changdao is, and they are already using dirty tricks to win.
Several people glanced around and saw Xiao Changdao mixed with Chan Shaoting and others. They were also looking here, and they all obviously knew who Xiao Changdao's opponent was in the first round.
Not long after, Baili Xin also came on stage and got the "three" number at the front. His opponent was a man named Chang who was unfamiliar to them.
Except for Nanzhu who was more enthusiastic this time, Yu Qing and Mu Aotie didn't care. They even wished that Bailixin's opponent was as strong as possible. It would be best to beat Bailixin to death directly during the competition, that way.
Just call once and everything will be done, which saves trouble.
After the lottery was completed, Wu Tian publicly announced the end of the first round of lottery on the stage, and once again informed everyone that the competition will officially begin at 3:00 tomorrow. The order of the competition will be the numbers drawn by everyone, from one to forty-four.
The first round of competition will end within three days, which means that there will be almost fifteen games in one day.
The mentality of the participants who returned from the meeting has also entered the atmosphere of competition.
Back at the place where he lived, Yu Qing still said that he didn't care about Baili Xin's life and death, so he only invited Nan Zhu and Mu Aotie to come to his room.
As soon as the door was closed, Yu Qing didn't waste any time and said directly: "Let's go back to what I said at the beginning. Find a reason to withdraw before the competition. You can just watch the competition. There is no need to participate."
In the final analysis, I was worried that something might happen to the two of them during the competition.
Nanzhu smiled bitterly, "It's okay to withdraw from the competition at the beginning. The key is that we have already withdrawn once, so what's the point of withdrawing again?"
Yu Qing's face sank, "Old Qi, I'm not deaf. On the way back just now, I heard you bragging and pretending to be bragging in front of Baili Xin. It's okay to brag about some things. You can't deceive others, but you can deceive yourself to be happy.
It’s okay to lie to yourself to satisfy yourself, but swords have no eyes. It’s best not to play it real. It’s not worth fighting for such a woman. What did Xiao Changdao and Wu Ronggui do to get ahead? It’s up to you to find out the inside story yourself.
You should know they won't let you."
Nanzhu looked disgusted, "Let me? Old Fifteen, am I so unbearable in your eyes? Do I deserve to let him come to me? Old Fifteen, when we were training in Taoyuan, we fought against each other for almost a year.
, you also said that my strength has improved a lot."
Yu Qing said sincerely: "It's true that your strength has improved a lot, but this is the Chaoyang Conference. Those who dare to come here to challenge the world's heroes, how dare you come if you don't have any special skills? Even I am not sure. Don't forget, we
The main purpose of coming here is not to compete, it’s not worth taking other risks, don’t delay the business.”
Nanzhu muttered, "If you can't win, just give up. What's the risk?"
Mu Aotie hummed, "It'll be okay. Old Fifteen, since we've come this far, let's give it a try."
Yu Qing was speechless. It was a good idea to admit defeat if he couldn't win, but what he was most worried about in this regard was not Nanzhu, but Mu Aotie. Nanzhu was quite sensible, but this big guy always liked to show off.
With a look of "I'm cold and I'm proud", Lao Jiu put on an air that would not be easily put down. He was afraid that if Mu Aotie encountered danger during the competition, he would fight to the death for the sake of face.
However, once Meng Hulu opened his mouth, it meant that he had made up his mind and it was difficult to persuade him to turn back. Yu Qing was a little confused about what the two of them were thinking and said in a deep voice: "Give me a reason!"
Mu Aotie simply said a few words, "Because you think we can't do it."
Yu Qing choked up for a moment and looked at him blankly.
Nanzhu also lowered his head and fell silent, but soon raised his head again and said with a smile: "Actually, we also want to raise our own status. You see, with our little wealth, we are still living in a precarious situation. What if it really doesn't work out one day?
, you can get more wages if you go out to work for others, right?"
"We came to the meeting under false names. What does our elevated status have to do with you?"
Yu Qing dropped the words and left. He opened the door and went out, looking very irritated. Anyway, he stopped talking nonsense.
The two people who stayed in the house looked at each other...
After Yu Qing went downstairs, he left the small building and went straight to the neighbor's house next door. Bailixin, who was paying attention to him, didn't know what he was going to do, so he immediately followed him.
"Rare guests, after having been together for so long, isn't this the first time you two take the initiative to come to my place?"
Sensing the commotion, Keran showed up to greet the guests immediately and invited the two of them inside politely.
Yu Qing looked back at Baili Xin who was following him, but didn't say anything. It would be difficult for him to drive away people if they insisted on following them. He could only bow his hands to Ke Ran and said, "Come and see me when you have time, Brother Ke."
Wouldn’t you mind?”
Ke Ran laughed and said: "Brother Zhang said this, so what's the matter with me always running to your place before? By the way, I forgot to congratulate Brother Zhang on his good luck. He is the only one among more than eighty people. There is no need to compete.
You can advance to the next level, I don’t know how many people would envy you.”
Yu Qing waved his hand, "Hey, if you can get this lottery in the regional finals, that's pretty good. If you get it in the first round, it's actually not that interesting."
Ke Ran understood the meaning behind his words and said with a smile: "Something is better than nothing. At least it can prove that Brother Zhang is favored by God's luck."
Yu Qing didn't believe this nonsense and didn't want to keep being polite to him. He looked around and changed the subject directly, "Hey, where is Brother Wu who wants to compete with us?"
Only then did Ke Ran understand the purpose of the other party's visit. He really came to the door for no reason. He immediately walked to the door of the side room, knocked on the door and said: "Brother Wu, Brother Zhang next door is here to see you."
Soon, the door opened, and Wu Ji walked out of the house. He first looked at Ke Ran's reaction, and then looked at Yu Qing with caution and asked, "Brother Zhang, what do you want from me?"
Yu Qing chuckled and said, "Brother Wu, is it convenient? Let's go out and have a chat?"
Wu Ji looked at Keran's reaction again, and showed a look like I'm not familiar with you. He frowned and said, "It's okay to go out. Brother Zhang, if you have anything to say, you might as well just say it."
Yu Qing could only continue to smile playfully: "Actually, it's nothing. Dou Guan, you should have seen the big guy over there. He drew the number '13'. Brother Wu, you seem to be the same, right?"
Wu Ji nodded, "Yes."
Yu Qing spread his hands and said, "That's it. You are the opponents in the first round of competition. We are neighbors. We don't see each other when we look up. Although everyone has to rely on their own abilities in the subsequent competition, there is no need to hurt the harmony, or'
That’s good, Brother Wu, what do you think?”
Before Wu Ji could speak, Keran already laughed and said: "That's natural. Brother Zhang, I have lived with Brother Wu these days. I know his character well. He is not a ruthless person. I hope Brother Zhang can follow suit."
Brother Dou, please tell me and everyone will stop ordering."
Wu Ji also nodded and said, "That's it."
Yu Qing immediately patted his chest in assurance, "Don't worry, he'll take care of me."
After another polite exchange, he didn't stay long. After saying goodbye, he went straight to another neighbor's house and found Xiao Changdao, who had also drawn the "41" number like Nanzhu.
Chan Shaoting and others happened to be in the hall, watching and listening.
Yu Qing's reason for coming was the same as before, he also hoped that he could order everything here.
When he heard that it was because of this, Xiao Changdao breathed a sigh of relief. The simple reason showed that these great archer masters were indeed not very good at close combat, so he said politely: "Acquaintances are friends, and friends naturally have to keep the points between them.
"
Although the other party agreed, Yu Qing was still a little worried because he knew what this guy was doing behind his back, so he secretly put pressure on him and said: "Brother Xiao should also know our identities. We are just here to see you. We don't want anyone to know."
Who has an accident? The Chaoyang Conference is only temporary, and there will be a long time to come. It’s better for everyone not to hurt the harmony, what do you think, Brother Xiao?"
As soon as these words came out, Chan Shaoting seemed to be dissatisfied, and snorted coldly, "The surname is Zhang, are you threatening him as a great archer?"
Although this was what he meant, Yu Qing refused to admit it, "Brother Chan, you are thinking too much."
Chan Shaoting looked at Xiao Changdao, "Brother Xiao, in this kind of competition, there will inevitably be times when the sword has no eyes. If there is an accidental injury, there is nothing you can do. In short, don't do it because of anyone's threats.
It affects your own performance. This opportunity comes once in twenty years and only once in a lifetime. You should do your best to be worthy of your hard work over the years. Brother Xiao, just follow the rules of the conference. If there are any problems afterwards,
As long as I help you carry it, I will never break your promise!"
Yu Qing glanced at him coldly, but did not say anything offensive. There was no need to make enemies at this time. He just reminded Xiao Changdao again, "Brother Xiao, let me say it again, this kind of competition will be harmful to us."
For archery masters, winning or losing doesn’t really matter, we are just here to learn more, so please stop here and don’t hurt the harmony!”
After saying that, he cupped his hands, said no more, turned around and left.
Baili Xin's eyes flashed, she turned to look at his leaving back, and quickly followed.
