Chapter 79: There are bad people among the crowd
Yi Xifeng in the restaurant was a little confused when he saw Zhou Di giving up the competition, but he understood in an instant.
What Zhou Di said was right at the beginning. This was just an assessment. When Yi Xifeng and others obtained the qualifications to be the champion, the assessment had already been passed.
For teenagers like Yi Xifeng, the results of the assessment ranking are very important to them. Just because this is their first time to enter the guard system of Yinren Village, after all, everyone wants to leave a glorious resume for themselves.
But a large part of the people participating in this martial arts competition are not like these boys and girls. They have more important responsibilities.
Yi Xifeng glanced at Li Xintian, who was sitting beside him. The girl was chewing a piece of dried tofu. When he noticed Yi Xifeng looking over, he turned around and said with a smile, "Shopkeeper Yi, do you want to join us?"
Yi Xifeng shook his head helplessly and asked, "What did you see?"
Li Xintian looked at Zhou Di's back as he turned and disappeared and said, "My strength is limited and I can't tell Zhou Di's depth, but Lin Lei has exerted at least 80% of his strength."
Yi Xifeng nodded and said, "Yes, that purple electric light is a bit interesting."
"Why do you think Zhou Di gave up the competition in the end?" Yi Xifeng asked with a smile, his expression looked less like a question and more like a school exam.
Li Xintian frowned and said slowly: "The most obvious thing is that Zhou Di is not as optimistic about the results of this ranking as we are."
"Oh? How do you say this?" Yi Xifeng pinched a piece of dried tofu, put it in his mouth and chewed it.
"Just when you were competing, I went to inquire about the news. Indeed, as Zhou Di said, the ranking results in the martial arts competition will only affect your future treatment in the Guard Iron Clothes. And with Zhou Di's current popularity, It is recognized that a strong man is the first person in the profession, no matter what his ranking results are, he will definitely be reused in the guard armor." Li Xintian said slowly.
Yi Xifeng nodded and motioned for the girl to continue.
"As for the second point, I guess he must have a mission. After all, no matter whether the strong men are working or guarding the iron clothes, their most important responsibility is to protect the safety of the village." Li Xintian looked at the fair boy, as if to ask for his opinion.
Yi Xifeng swallowed the food in his mouth and smiled: "Let me tell you there is another reason."
Li Xintian asked curiously: "What?"
Yi Xifeng chuckled, "I remember when I was a child, when I was very young, only two or three years old, Heizi would pester me all day long to play horseback riding and fight."
"I really have no interest in riding horses and fighting, but he still pesters me every day and asks me to play with him." Yi Xifeng said with a smile to himself: "Once, I was really annoyed by him. Just tell him that I can’t beat him and I don’t want to play horseback fighting with him.”
"This kid got even more excited, so I said I could fight, but he had to let me go." Yi Xifeng asked Li Xintian with a smile, "What do you think the result will be?"
"He let you go? No, did he win?" Li Xintian asked curiously.
"Haha, actually my level of fighting on horseback is pretty good. At that time, it was at least six or seven years old." Yi Xifeng said with a proud smile.
"Hmph! That's a lie. How could a child who has never played horseback riding and fighting be so powerful?" Li Xintian wrinkled his cute nose and said.
"In the end, Lin Fenghuo was beaten very badly by me. I continued to beat him until he shouted that he had given up. In the end, the boy got a head full on his head and went home crying. From then on, he never asked me to play horseback or fight again. and started practicing swordsmanship from then on." Yi Xifeng said with emotion on his face.
"What do you mean?" Li Xintian asked thoughtfully.
Seeing Yi Xifeng nod lightly, Li Xintian asked tentatively: "Is Zhou Di deliberately showing weakness to the enemy by fighting Lin Lei?"
Yi Xifeng said solemnly: "That's right, Lin Lei has already used Qing Lei Battle Clothes and Qing Lei Three Shadows Slash. A warrior in the realm of ordinary power cannot stop it."
Li Xintian continued: "And Zhou Di didn't even use any decent stunts, so he forced the opponent back."
"Yes, it seems that Lin Lei showed mercy to the others and did not pursue him. Humph, I know that Lin Lei guy relatively well. He is not a person who gives up the pursuit opportunity easily." Yi Xifeng looked into the distance, where he was standing There was a tall, thin young man with a gloomy face.
"So, Zhou Di is showing weakness to the enemy, and the enemy's eyes and ears should be among the crowd in the square!" Li Xintian looked at the bustling crowd in the Elder's Square through the balcony on the second floor.
Yi Xifeng grinned, "There are bad people among the crowd!"
…
In Yinren Village, beside the Chunfeng River, there is a huge shed.
There were four men in the shed at this time. The leader was a middle-aged man sitting on a wicker chair, playing with two copper balls in his hands. Standing on his left and right were two warriors wearing black and white masks. The last one was a short, fat middle-aged man dressed as a merchant.
"Mr. Shui, the spies from the martial arts competition came to report that the kid we were watching before actually advanced. And the Zhou Di mentioned on the front line also failed." A middle-aged man dressed as a businessman bowed and said.
"Oh? So this year, the two strongest men recognized by Yinren Village were beaten down by two little-known brats?" The middle-aged man sitting on the wicker chair asked with interest.
"Indeed!" the merchant man replied.
"Is it possible that they let the water go?" At this time, the man wearing a black mask asked loudly. His voice was hoarse and his age could not be heard.
The merchant man immediately bowed and replied: "As a villain, it's unlikely. The woman named Zhong Lingxi's sleeves were cut by the opponent until the end of the fight. If the two parties had agreed to let go, they shouldn't have done this."
The warrior wearing a white mask continued: "That Zhou Di has repeatedly undermined the actions of our informants. According to reports from the front line, he is a good player!" I heard that the voice that spoke was that of a woman. Her speech was neither urgent nor slow, and her age was not good. judge.
Mr. Shui waved his hand, signaling the merchant man to retreat. Then he said to the two people wearing black and white masks: "It doesn't matter, they are all strong men who are doing it. They haven't even touched the side of the knights, so they can't affect the overall situation."
The man in the black mask said: "Mr. Shui, the two of us have been ordered by the general to assist you in completing this mission. It is better to be careful with some things."
The woman in the white mask nodded and said: "Please let Mr. Shui know if there is any situation, so as to avoid any mistakes. When the general's follow-up troops arrive, it will be very difficult for you and me."
Mr. Shui sneered and said softly: "Ji Rentu is just a dog raised by the county magistrate. When did he run wild on my head, Mr. Shui?"
As soon as the words fell, the atmosphere in the shed also dropped to freezing point. The two people wearing black and white masks instantly released their own internal energy, one yin and one yang, one black and one white. Two streams of internal energy were raging in the shed.
