In the end, Lu Ran tremblingly threw out the number plate, caught it with the back of his hand, and then covered it with another one.
He didn't dare to reveal his answer immediately. Instead, he turned around and looked around to see the reactions of the people around him.
There are fifty-four people left, and only six people need to be eliminated to achieve the goal.
Lu Ran watched as the number plates of one, two, three, four and five people went out, followed by the sixth person.
After a long time, the seventh person did not appear.
On the stage, Empress Huntian seemed to have a satisfied smile on her face, and nodded. She clapped her hands, and three little men in black appeared out of thin air on the stage, holding flags with variable numbers in their hands. Every time they breathed, the flags The numbers on the flag changed two or three times. The numbers started from zero zero one and quickly climbed to zero four zero.
Judging from this, Empress Huntian must have won her bet. Fifty-four people threw out their number plates at the same time, and there were actually forty-eight people who threw out their numbers at the same time.
That is to say, at the same place and at the same time, forty-eight people threw the same number plate five times in a row, all five times with the same side.
is it possible?
This is impossible.
Lu Ran was a little afraid to look at the number plate under his palm, because he could faintly see that there was some light coming from the number plate, but now the light was extinguished.
In other words, he has been eliminated.
He was extremely nervous and began to sweat on his forehead. He turned around and saw the numbers on the three flags on the stage, 045, 046, 047...
Stopped.
The number actually stopped.
The forty-seven players in the audience who had passed the test were anxious, waiting for the last number card to appear.
Or perhaps the Huntian Empress announced that the number of characters was less than forty-eight, and the ceremony was over.
Only then did Lu Ran realize that the last number plate was under his palm, and the focus of everyone's fate was now focused on him.
But the light has gone out, and there is no hope.
Since there is no hope, there is no need to be nervous. It will be over in the worst case, and no piece of flesh will be lost.
Then open it and take a look.
Lu Ran quickly released the palm covering the back of his hand, and then took a quick look.
He saw the image of two underground rivers entangled and wrapped together.
Just when I was about to breathe a sigh of relief, I just had to wait for the people on the stage to reveal the answer.
But the scene in front of him was fleeting. Lu Ran blinked and looked again. The scene actually changed. The two dark rivers turned into numbers, and they were still glowing numbers.
And Lu Ran was sure that his hand that caught the number plate did not move at all, nor did the number plate move at all.
Lu Ran rubbed his eyes to make sure he was not dazzled. Indeed, in an instant, the number plate on the back of his hand, which was stable and had not been flipped or moved at all, was reversed without anyone noticing.
what's going on?
Who did it?
At the moment of extreme surprise, the number on the three flags on the stage that had been at forty-seven finally jumped to forty-eight.
Forty-eight people threw the number face five times at the same time and achieved it.
Everyone waited with bated breath, and all eyes were fixed on Empress Huntian.
"It seems that my luck is very good today."
Empress Huntian sneered and pointed to the sky with both hands.
In the VIP seats behind him, someone had already stood up and started applauding.
The audience was one step ahead of the contestants and burst into applause.
"Forty-eight people reached it! The first round of re-election was successfully concluded!"
The ever-changing dome in people's eyes has now come to a night with fireworks blooming everywhere.
In the competition seats, soon there was also a sea of celebration.
Only Lu Ran, after thinking for a while, raised his hand.
Among thousands of people, it was rare that Huntian Empress had the insight to see him.
She waved her hand and the whole place fell silent.
A beam of light hit Lu Ran, and the focus of the audience came here at the same time.
Lu Ran held up his number plate and shouted loudly: "I have something to say and I want to report that someone is cheating."
"Oh? Who cheated?" Empress Huntian's eyes were sharp, as if she wanted to shoot Lu Ran through.
"I don't know who cheated, but there is." Lu Ran's voice was trembling, and he tried to straighten his body.
"In that case, come up and tell me." Before Lu Ran could say anything, a ball of vinyl was thrown over like a rope, tying up Lu Ran and throwing him onto the four-sided platform.
Lu Ran saw the expressions of surprise on all the eleven distinguished guests at the VIP table, and most of Tianjun's face turned green.
"Tell me about it, contestant No. 444." Empress Huntian's lazy voice was filled with impatience, and she made a gesture of invitation.
"When my number plate was thrown out for the last time, what was displayed was not the number side, but the pattern side. But for some reason, it changed in the blink of an eye." Lu Ran held up his number plate high. Card.
He does this not because he wants to be an honest person, but because he understands that once this kind of cheating is discovered, it will be forced on him. When the time comes, he may not know what river he will jump into. .
Empress Huntian stretched out her hand to take Lu Ran's number plate, put it in her hand, looked at it carefully, and quickly came to a conclusion, and said with a smile: "Contestant No. 444, I think you may be dazzled, but you Instead of seeing the reverse as the front, see the front as the reverse. There is no problem with this talisman, and the magic circle is intact."
She passed the number plate to several distinguished guests behind her. The distinguished guests looked at it one by one and came to the same conclusion as Empress Huntian.
The magic circle is intact, which means that no one has cast a spell on it again since the person who originally cast the spell cast it. In other words, there is no trace of cheating.
"But...but I don't think I'm wrong!" Lu Ran still believed in what he saw.
"Bold! This is the number plate that was entrusted to me by the Master to cast spells in person. Do you mean that someone dares to tamper with the Master's magic circle? Someone can actually change the Master's magic circle?" Empress Huntian's eyes flashed. Suddenly it turned blue, and then Lu Ran felt a black hand grabbing his throat, pinching him so hard that he could hardly breathe.
"I...no...that's not what I meant." Lu Ran gasped for air and tried to pull the black hand with both hands, but was unable to do anything.
"In my opinion, it's just that he was too nervous, which caused his eyesight. I would also like to ask Empress Huntian to remember that he is also a contestant who has officially passed the re-examination of the Dajiao. Sir, please let him go regardless of the villain's fault." An old voice said first. Said something.
"That's right, otherwise this big feast will really end today." Another naughty voice followed.
Behind them, two people stood up almost at the same time and begged Lu Ran for mercy.
From the corner of his eye, Lu Ran saw an old man in gray clothes and a woman in gray clothes with short hair.
The old man looked familiar. He was the flower buyer who struck up a conversation with him at the second-hand market a few days ago, Huaihuang.
