"Huh? What's the sound?" Not far from the courtyard of the Seven-Dong Dormitory, there is another huge courtyard. The arena competition that was previously held in the Seven-Dong Courtyard was also held here. The platform is located above the arena.
Above, several middle-aged men in brocade clothes all narrowed their eyes and looked in the same direction.
"The direction the sound is coming from seems to be coming from the Seventh Cave!" A man with a goatee tilted his head to listen for a moment, squinted his eyes and stroked his beard, but when he said this, his face
There was a hint of disdain on his face.
Several other people also showed disdain. The square-faced man in the middle sneered a few times and snorted: "Seven holes? Then there is no need to worry about them! There is not even a direct descendant, and the next generation actually
They are all side branches, and sooner or later the cave will be abolished! Hum hum, sooner or later our Jiang Family’s Nine Cave will turn into the Jiang Family’s Eight Cave!”
Although they were all members of the Jiang family, these people in front of them obviously looked down upon the Jiang family's Qidong, and their words were full of sarcasm and disdain. The remaining tall and thin man curled his lips and sneered: "It's just Qidong,
How can we be qualified to compare with our four holes? If it weren’t for Jiang Laojiu, the seventh hole would have been gone!”
"The winner has been decided! Jiang Xiaojiang! Win!" At this moment, a shout came from the edge of the ring, but the fight on the ring had ended, and a teacher shouted out the winner of the fight.
.
Hearing this name, the three men in brocade clothes all smiled and stood up to give high-fives. The square-faced man even shouted loudly: "Xiao Jiang! Well done! The first place in our four-hole end-of-month competition this time is
is you!"
On the ring, there were blood stains everywhere, showing how bloody the previous battle was. Apart from the two trembling teachers in the corner of the ring, the only one standing on the ring was
There was only one boy of seventeen or eighteen years old.
This young man is thin and frail. At first glance, he looks like he is weak. But if you look closely, you can see that this young man's body is covered with blood, but there are no scars on his body. Especially his hands, which are almost covered with blood.
!
Hearing the shouts of the square-faced man, the young man just turned his head and glanced at the three men in brocade clothes. There was a chilling indifference in his eyes. Then without saying a word, he turned around and jumped off the ring.
.
Different from the seven-hole arena, under this arena, there were only a dozen or so teenagers. They all looked at the young man who jumped off the arena with fear. Especially when he came over, they all looked panicked.
Step back, for fear of getting even half a step closer!
As for the reaction of those teenagers, the thin boy didn't seem to care at all. He continued to walk indifferently towards the dormitory loft next to him, and disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye. When the figure of the thin boy disappeared, all the teenagers
Everyone let out a sigh of relief, and a few of them even sat on the ground with their buttocks on their butts. It was obvious that their feet were too weak to stand.
Being ignored by the thin boy, the men in brocade clothes were a little embarrassed, but they couldn't do anything about the thin boy. The goatee man smiled and said to his companions: "Since the top spot has been announced, then
Let’s go back to our house and report it to the cave master! Haha, I believe the cave master will be very happy if he knows about it!”
With the goatee man walking down the steps, the expressions of the other two people also softened a lot. The tall and thin man nodded slightly and said, "You're right! After such a long delay, I think the cave master will be a little anxious.
, let’s go back quickly!”
"My lord! My lord!" At this moment, a shout rang out from the door of the courtyard. A boy walked over quickly, bowed to the three men in brocade clothes, and then lowered his voice to the one among them.
The square-faced man said: "Sir! The news just came from Qidong, there is a change in Qidong's end-of-month competition!"
"Change?" Although the three of them had expressed extreme disdain for Qidong before, no one of them dared to take it lightly when there was news about Qidong, because the master of Qidong was known as the number one expert in the entire Jiang family.
Jiang Xiaogong! They have had many years of grievances between the fourth hole and the seventh hole. If they really ignore the affairs of the seventh hole, it will not work! Immediately, the tall and thin man had a gloomy face and shouted: "What happened?"
"Sir!" For the three people in front of them, this boy is a very small character. How dare he show off his influence? He quickly replied: "I just got the news that the master of the Seventh Cave, Jiang Xiaogong, has arrived.
I went to watch the seven-hole competition at the end of the month!"
"What?" Hearing what the boy said, the three of them were stunned. The identity of this cave master is so noble, not to mention the famous master Jiang Xiaogong of the Jiang family! In previous years, Jiang Xiaogong was nowhere to be seen even in the year-end competition.
Why did the figure come to see the little end-of-month competition today? The square-faced man couldn't help but asked: "Did you get it right? Is it really Jiang Xiaogong?"
"How dare you talk nonsense!" The boy had a wry smile on his face, shook his head and waved his hands quickly, and said: "It's really Jiang Xiaogong! I also heard what some of the seven-dong disciples said, and they also found it strange.
I don’t understand why Jiang Xiaogong suddenly came to watch Xiao Bi’s match!”
"Well!" After confirming that the young man was not lying, the three men in brocade clothes all frowned, each with a solemn expression. The man with a goatee said: "Jiang Xiaogong has never cared about clan studies, why did he come to the clan this time?
To learn? Not to mention just for a month-end competition! Could it be that Jiang Xiaogong has some conspiracy? "
"It doesn't look like it!" As soon as the man with the goatee finished speaking, the square-faced man next to him immediately shook his head in denial and said: "Jiang Xiaogong's personality can be said to be upright at best, but to put it bluntly, he is brave and aggressive. Absolutely not.
That kind of person who plays tricks! But that old ghost, the third elder, is full of tricks and needs to be guarded against!"
The square-faced man's words also startled the other two people. The tall and thin man immediately said: "If it is really the old ghost of the Third Elder, then this matter will not be simple! It seems that we must report it to the police immediately.
The cave master is the one!"
The suggestion of the tall and lanky man was immediately approved by the other two people. Originally, they were going to go to their cave master to report the results of the competition, but now that something like this happened, they were even more anxious and angry, and they wanted to fly back immediately.
That’s it!
The same scene was played out in various places inside and outside the clan school at the same time. Jiang Xiaogong was no ordinary Jiang family kid. Not only was he the master of the Seven Cave Cave, but he also held the title of the number one master of the Jiang family! His every move could be
It is said that it has affected the concerns of various forces within the Jiang family, and no one dares to look down upon any of Jiang Xiaogong's actions.
At the same time, in a large room in the Qidong dormitory, Jiang Shaomin, a disciple of the Qidong side branch who had been defeated in the ring before, was lying on his bed and moaning non-stop. Although Jiang Shaomin's injury was not too serious,
After all, the pain was inevitable. But what Jiang Shaomin couldn't accept the most was the news he had just received.
"What? The first place, the first place was taken by that Jiang Zhou? I, s—!" Hearing that Jiang Zhou won the first place, Jiang Shaomin was shocked and angry, and subconsciously wanted to jump up from the bed, but this move
, but he touched the injury on his body, and the pain immediately made him gasp for air, and he raised his head and went to the bed. The pain was so excruciating that it took him a long time to recover.
"Brother Min, don't be impulsive!" The people beside the bed were the Qidong disciples who had always supported Jiang Shaomin. When they saw Jiang Shaomin's appearance, they all broke into a cold sweat and hurriedly stepped forward to comfort him.
sentence, one of them even said: "The origin of Jiang Zhou is unknown, and I don't know where he jumped out of! He lied to us before and said he was an alchemist, making us take it lightly! I didn't expect him to be so strong! Not only is he smart
Brother, even Jiang Langxiu was defeated by him!"
"Asshole! What nonsense are you talking about!" Jiang Shaomin became even more angry when he heard this. Doesn't this mean that he, Jiang Shaomin, is not as good as Jiang Langxiu? If he hadn't been injured, Jiang Shaomin would have insisted on doing it.
Slap this dumb bastard away!
Seemingly realizing that he had said the wrong thing, the disciple quickly covered his mouth, smiled, and retreated behind the crowd. The other disciple said with a worried look on his face: "Brother Min, now
What should we do? This time, in front of the cave master, if Jiang Zhou wins the first place, will it affect Brother Min’s impression of you in the cave master’s mind?”
"What do you know!" Before Jiang Shaomin could answer, another disciple shouted angrily and said: "The origin of Jiang Zhou is unknown, but in terms of identity, how can he be compared to our brother Min? Even if he is.
Let him win the first place, and don't even think about competing with our brother Min for the position of young master! The real trouble is that pretty boy Jiang Langxiu! He competed with Jiang Zhou until the end, and I heard that the cave master praised him a few times,
That is the biggest threat to us!"
These supporters have always supported Jiang Shaomin, and they have opposed Jiang Langxiu not once or twice. If Jiang Langxiu is really allowed to become the young master, then they will really have nothing to gain!
Sure enough, as soon as this disciple expressed his thoughts, everyone else also panicked and panicked one by one. However, although Jiang Shaomin's face was ugly, he could still keep his composure. Seeing the panic of everyone under his command, the two of them started to panic.
He glared and shouted angrily: "What are you talking about! I'm not dead yet!"
Jiang Shaomin roared like this, and all the disciples were immediately restrained. Although they were still panicked in their hearts, at least they didn't dare to show it on the surface. They all stood there honestly, not even daring to raise their heads.
Then, Jiang Shaomin pursed his lips again and snorted coldly. After a moment, he said: "Although I lost, I did not admit defeat! Humph! I won't give up my position as young master to anyone! Jiang Ze!"
Jiang Shaomin shouted, and Jiang Ze, who was hiding among the crowd, immediately ran over, slapped Jiang Shaomin, and said, "Brother Min! What are your orders?"
Even though Jiang Shaomin forced Jiang Ze to defeat without a fight, it was absolutely impossible for Jiang Ze not to have any resentment in his heart. But now facing Jiang Shaomin, not only did Jiang Ze not show any signs of resentment, he even showed no signs of resentment.
It's a charming smile on his face, and there's nothing less than flattery.
Jiang Shaomin, however, didn't care what Jiang Ze had in mind at all. Instead, he smiled coldly and hummed: "Didn't that Jiang Zhou before be very interested in your formation flag? Did he come to see you later?"
"Huh?" Jiang Shaomin suddenly mentioned such a thing, and Jiang Ze was stunned for a moment, but soon said with a smile: "No, no! Since more than half a month ago, that kid has been huddled in his room.
, but they never came out to look for me!"
"Okay!" After receiving Jiang Ze's answer, Jiang Shaomin immediately gritted his teeth and shouted, and continued: "You will go find that kid Jiang Zhou later, and then take the initiative to show him the formation flag! Then, you
That’s it, hum! Do you understand?”
Jiang Shaomin lowered his voice and gave a few instructions, but Jiang Ze was stunned again after hearing this, with a strange expression on his face, which seemed to be a little hesitant. But before he could raise any objection, he saw Jiang Shaomin's face.
He looked full of displeasure, especially those eyes that glared so hard that Jiang Ze was so frightened that he quickly shook his head and nodded and said, "I understand! I understand! I will do what Brother Min ordered!"
"Huh!" Seeing Jiang Ze agreed, Jiang Shaomin's expression softened slightly. He glanced at everyone with his sinister eyes, then waved his hands and said, "Okay! Let's do this! You guys.
, please step back! I want to have a good rest!"
Jiang Shaomin said so. Everyone dared to stay and left one after another. In a blink of an eye, this huge room became empty. But after everyone left, Jiang Shaomin did not lie down to rest. Instead, he sat up straight with his upper body
, snorted coldly, and said to the empty room: "Come out! I know you are here!"
Jiang Shaomin's voice echoed in the empty room, and as soon as he finished speaking, a figure suddenly flashed across the originally empty room, and then, a man wearing a black robe appeared out of thin air. This black robe
The man was dressed entirely in black, and even his head was covered with a black gauze veil, so he couldn't even see clearly.
The black-robed man found a chair to sit down on his own, looked at Jiang Shaomin sitting on the bed, smiled, and said: "You are seriously injured this time! Don't delay the cave master's arrangements.
Have you been given a mission?"
"Hmph! Stop talking nonsense!" Jiang Shaomin's face became even more ugly after hearing what the black-robed man said, and he snorted with displeasure: "If I fail, it will be no good for you! Besides, I failed this time, but it's not good for you!"
It’s not like I gained nothing! Jiang Xiaogong actually came to watch the month-end competition this time. It can be seen that this month-end competition is definitely abnormal! The most likely person is the one named Jiang Zhou! You go back to the cave master and ask him
Let’s carefully investigate the origin of that person named Jiang Zhou!”
"Haha! You are so arrogant that you dare to appoint a cave master?" The man in black robe was not angry, but the words were so sinister that they made people feel uncomfortable!
"Come on, there are none of these!" Jiang Shaomin's face turned pale, and he looked even more ugly. He wanted to stand up, but his injuries were affected, so he could only sit down, covering his chest, and hummed: "What are you going to do?
It’s clear! It was the cave master who sent me to be an undercover agent here in Cave Seven! The cave master asked me to be the young master of cave seven, which is naturally beneficial to the cave master! If it was because of you that the mission ordered by the cave master was messed up.
, the cave master won’t let you go when the time comes!”
Obviously Jiang Shaomin's words were very intimidating to the man in black robe. The man in black robe was stunned for a moment, then he laughed again and said: "I was just joking, why should I be so serious?
! It’s just a message. Isn’t that why the cave master sent me here? Don’t worry! I will tell the cave master every word!”
"Hmph!" Jiang Shaomin snorted coldly at the change of attitude of the other party, and then said: "One more thing, that is Jiang Zhou, he actually has a fake Army-breaking Shield on hand like mine, and
Obviously his armor-breaking shield is stronger than mine! Otherwise, I wouldn’t be subject to backlash! You’d better explain this matter clearly to the cave master, so that the cave master can investigate this aspect as well!”
"Okay! I understand!" Since he had already surrendered from the beginning, the man in black robe no longer pretended, and nodded repeatedly, which was regarded as complying with Jiang Shaomin's instructions. Finally, he stood up, raised his hands to Jiang Shaomin and said, "If only
If these things happen, then I will report back to the cave master!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the figure of the man in black robe flashed past and disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye. This time, Jiang Shaomin was really the only one left in the room! Jiang Shaomin was seen sitting on the bed alone, and soon he was gnashing his teeth.
With a ferocious look on his face, he snorted coldly: "Jiang Langxiu! Jiang Zhou! And Jiang Xiaogong! Just wait, the position of the master of the seven caves will belong to me, Jiang Shaomin, sooner or later!"
A few days later, Jiang Zhou's injury was almost improved. Of course, Jiang Zhou had so many healing elixirs on hand. This time, Jiang Zhou became the first place in the seven-hole end-of-month competition, and his status was obviously different.
Yes, his room was already very good. This time Jiang Xiaogong took the initiative and directly arranged a better room for Jiang Zhou. It was said that it was no worse than the rooms of Jiang Shaomin and Jiang Langxiu. It was already
It is one of the best rooms in Qidong Dormitory.
Jiang Zhou didn't have any dissatisfaction. He had been a wandering orphan since he was a child, and he didn't pay much attention to food, clothing, housing, and transportation. However, Jiang Xiaogong's kindness was hard to refuse, so Jiang Zhou had no choice but to obey Jiang Xiaogong's arrangements.
Seeing that the injury was almost healed, on this day, Jiang Xiaogong suddenly came to visit, and along with Jiang Xiaogong were two acquaintances of Jiang Zhou.
"Master!" "Master!"
With two exclamations, two figures, a man and a woman, emerged from behind Jiang Xiaogong and saluted Jiang Zhou at the same time. Seeing these two figures, Jiang Zhou was also stunned, and then his face was full of surprise.
, couldn't help but exclaimed: "Brother Yuan! Ling'er! You are finally here!"
