"The young man in silver robe once asked Princess Hama to retain the right to fight first..." Chu Meng interjected.
Shangguan Xiaowan was a little anxious when she heard that, and asked with concern: "Has she agreed?"
Fairy Jiuyouhua said with a slight hesitation: "You were talking to me at that time, and I only heard her promise that he would go back and pull the horse..."
As she said this, two pieces of red cloud flew over Fairy Jiuyouhua's face. She was not listening just now, but she was extremely ashamed and a little absent-minded.
Nangong Haotian didn't point it out and looked at everything with a smile.
Chu Meng hurriedly responded: "It seems that he has been promised priority in fighting!"
While he was talking, Princess Hama, who was sitting high on the horse, had already galloped towards the west end of the racecourse. Upon seeing this, the heroes turned around and rushed towards the high platform towering in mid-air.
Aunt Shan said cheerfully: "Let's go over and get on stage right away. Let's have a quick fight. By the time that guy comes back, we'll have already entered the palace!"
Fairy Jiuyou Flower worriedly glanced at the sun that was about to set in the west, and said hesitantly: "If Miss Xiaowan can win the horse race before sunset, Young Master Nangong can play in the lantern race at night."
While talking, everyone also followed the crowd and crowded towards the front of the stage. Since the place where they stood was not too far from the ring, they quickly crowded to about seven or eight feet in front of the ring.
Nangong Haotian and others stood still to watch, but saw no one on the stage. The Princess Hama had not yet arrived backstage.
When I looked up at the high platform immediately behind the platform, I noticed that the surrounding areas of the high platform were filled with small triangular flags of various colors.
While looking at it, Zhao Ling'er asked in confusion: "Excuse me, senior, why are there so many small flags on the high platform?"
Fairy Jiuyouhua frowned and stared at the many small flags on the high platform, and then said hesitantly for a long time: "There was no such high platform before, so I don't know if they have any function..."
Xue Bing'er couldn't help but snorted and said: "It's not just a good-looking thing. Look, there are a lot of red and green colored silks on the ring!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a big man nearby suddenly said proudly: "Those little flags are not pretty, they are for comparison with Princess Hama..."
Fairy Jiuyouhua made a surprised sound and asked, "What kind of contest is this?"
The big man didn't notice that Fairy Jiuyouhua was in disguise. He just thought she was a man and said sternly: "It's not about seeing who can rise faster, but who can get the little flag first and come down first!"
"The little silver-robed hero who just competed with the princess..."
The big man shook his head and said: "That's not a little hero, that's the young chieftain of De Brutus!"
"His Qinggong beats Princess Hama?" Fairy Jiuyouhua was quite curious.
The big man shook his head and said: "No, Princess Hama and I captured the flag and dropped it..."
Xue Bing'er said softly: "Since we don't have the upper hand, how can we tell the difference?"
The big man smiled and said: "It is no longer simple to decide the outcome. You need to know that in the past five or six years, very few people have been able to win a horse fight!"
Xue Bing'er snorted and curled her mouth. Just as she was about to say something, she found that Nangong Haotian was already looking at her with a warning look. She stopped speaking immediately as she was about to say something.
At this moment, the whole audience suddenly burst into cheers and commotion.
Nangong Haotian and others paid close attention and found that the eight female guards who had just been accompanying Princess Hama had already climbed onto the ring from the high ladders on both sides of the ring.
Eight female iron guards stood on both sides of the big red chair, but they did not see Princess Hama take the stage.
I saw a female iron guard at the head, striding to the stage, saluting the three hundred heroes in the audience with cupped fists, and said loudly in Chinese: "Heroes from all walks of life in the world who want to challenge you can come on stage now!
"
Nangong Haotian turned back to look at Shangguan Xiaowan. Shangguan Xiaowan nodded, shouted deeply, and rose into the air, flying diagonally towards the ring.
As soon as the heroes heard the shouts, they all looked this way. At this moment, they saw a young man with white eyebrows wearing a crimson gown, rising into the sky and flying straight to the ring. They were stunned for a moment, and then burst out with a loud burst of thunder and stood up.
The eight female iron guards on the stage couldn't help but be stunned when they saw it.
Because, these days, almost everyone who goes on stage to compete has to squeeze into the audience before jumping up. This is the first time for a young man like this to fly straight up from the crowd.
When Shangguan Xiaowan heard that the whole house was filled with joy, she was naturally happy. When she was falling, her toes just happened to be on the edge of the ring. Then, seemingly exhausted, her upper body fell backwards and towards the audience.
When the heroes saw it, they suddenly burst into thunderous exclamations!
Obviously, all the nearly ten thousand heroes present thought that Shangguan Xiaowan was so angry that she turned over and fell off the ring. Even Xue Bing'er, who was standing behind Nangong Haotian, couldn't help but scream.
Just when the heroes exclaimed, Shangguan Xiaowan fell backward, then stood up again, swayed gracefully twice in a row, and then walked into the center of the stage.
When the heroes saw it, they suddenly understood. They immediately applauded like thunder and shouted loudly.
Fairy Jiuyou Flower smiled and praised: "Although Miss Xiaowan's swaying in the wind can't scare Princess Hama, it has opened the eyes of nearly ten thousand heroes who came from all over the audience!"
Xue Bing'er on the side suddenly remembered that what Shangguan Xiaowan had just performed was the Wind Pendulum Willow, which is the most difficult to master in Qing Gong. When she performed it, it was like a Wind Willow swinging in the wind.
At this moment, Shangguan Xiaowan, who walked to the center of the stage, was already looking at the dazed female iron guard on the stage, and said in a deep and powerful voice: "I came to compete for a bride, why don't you see your princess come out?"
All eight female iron guards looked at Shangguan Xiaowan in surprise. The female iron guard who had just stood at the stage to speak quickly calmed down and asked in confusion: "Are you... are you a young man or an old man?"
Shangguan Xiaowan deliberately glared angrily and shouted in a deep voice: "Nonsense, I'm only eighteen years old this year. Do you think I'm a grey-haired old man?"
The female iron guard didn't believe it. She raised her hand and pointed at Shangguan Xiaowan's handsome face and asked: "You are not an old man, why are your eyebrows white?"
Shangguan Xiaowan said in a deep voice: "I am born with a strange talent. I was born with white eyebrows. You are so rare and strange!"
After saying this, he paused, stared angrily, and shouted angrily: "Go and ask your princess to come out, or else you may get beaten!"
The female iron guard suddenly became furious and asked angrily: "Do you know the rules of the beating?"
Shangguan Xiaowan said unceremoniously: "I arrived a moment ago and only defeated your princess, who is the prince-consort of your country. The eight of you must obey my instructions and dress me and serve tea every day..."
As he said that, he raised his finger and pointed at the other seven female iron guards.
Shangguan Xiaowan's words contained a hint of skill, and most of the nearly ten thousand Yinghao people in the audience could hear her. Seeing that she actually said this, the whole audience burst into laughter.
One of the eight female iron guards cursed: "This person must be a lunatic!"
Shangguan Xiaowan's ears and eyes were so sensitive that she naturally heard the low curse and glared: "Whoever said I was a lunatic will be beaten!"
The female iron guard standing in the center of the ring said loudly: "I said so!"
As he spoke, he flew forward, and with a pair of jade palms, he suddenly pointed out and struck Shangguan Xiaowan's face and chest.
Shangguan Xiaowan had already said in a deep voice while the female guard was flying: "You will be beaten as you say!"
While talking, the female iron guard's moves were exhausted. Shangguan Xiaowan shook her upper body without moving her lower limbs in order to achieve a quick victory. She only moved her right arm forward and backward, and flicked the female iron guard's face with her backhand.
one time.
The female iron guard let out a sweet cry, flew away, and hurriedly raised her hands to cover her cheeks. Her face turned red with embarrassment and she did not dare to look at Shangguan Xiaowan.
When the heroes in the audience saw it, they let out a burst of joyful laughter, which resounded through the sky. At this moment, a clear and crisp woman's voice suddenly sounded from the corner door of the ring: "Get back!"
Shangguan Xiaowan raised her eyes and saw that it was Princess Hama who was beautiful and heroic.
Princess Hama's pretty face was deep, with a sullen expression on her brows. She was obviously dissatisfied with Shangguan Xiaowan for touching the female iron guard's face just now.
When the female iron guard who was fighting was Princess Hama, she was so frightened that she bowed and saluted with the other seven female iron guards. Princess Hama looked at Shangguan Xiaowan and walked slowly towards the center of the stage.
When Shangguan Xiaowan saw Princess Hama, her eyes were bright and clear, as if she wanted to see that her white eyebrows were fake, and she couldn't help but feel a little nervous.
When one of the seven female iron guards saw that Shangguan Xiaowan did not salute, she couldn't help but anxiously urged in a low voice: "Hey, the princess has come out, why don't you salute?"
"If I beat the princess, I will be the prince-in-law. I am older than her..." Shangguan Xiaowan quickly calmed down and said.
Before he said anything, the crowd in the audience burst into laughter again.
Another female guard whispered anxiously: "Even if you become the consort, you still have to bow when you see the princess!"
Shangguan Xiaowan pretended to be stunned, said "Oh", and quickly stood up and bowed with her fists clasped.
Princess Hama thought she was amused by Shangguan Xiaowan's stupidity, so a smile appeared on her pretty face.
It wasn't until she was seven feet in front of Shangguan Xiaowan that Princess Hama stopped, took a closer look at Shangguan Xiaowan, frowned slightly, and asked in a low voice with dissatisfaction: "Are you from the Central Plains?
"
When Shangguan Xiaowan asked, he deliberately puffed up his chest, cheered up, and said eloquently as if he was endorsing a letter: "My surname is Lin, and my name is Xiayu. My ancestral home is southern Hunan. I currently live in Wubaotou. I am already eighteen years old this year. I only like to practice martial arts.
I don’t like studying. Although I am not tall, I speak in a manly manner. Now I came to the north of Saibei to find someone. I was happy to hear that the princess was looking for a bride..."
When it came to asking for a bride, Princess Hama, who had been listening quietly with a smile, suddenly blushed, waved her hand to stop her, and asked with a smile: "How old did you say you were just now?"
Shangguan Xiaowan pretended to be stunned and said: "You are more than ten years old this year!"
