In fact, it was just some people making noise. No one saw what went wrong. No one could guarantee that it was not the result of luck. It was not absolutely impossible.
The scene returned to normal, the drawing continued, and the drawing of the last two people was successfully completed. The second round of drawing was finally over.
But the successive byes still brought some aftermath to some extent.
After the show, when they returned to the small building where they lived, Nanzhu immediately followed Yu Qing's room and asked directly and secretly: "Old Shififteen, how come you draw empty numbers one after another?"
The curiosity and doubt in the eyes clearly asked, did you cheat?
Not only him, but Mu Aotie also had this question in his eyes.
If it had been anyone else, the two of them might have thought it was good luck, but that was not necessarily the case when it happened to Lao Fifteen. The key point was that both of them had seen some of Lao Fifteen's mysterious methods. After Lao Fifteen went to Beijing to take the exam, Not only did he have an unknown swordsmanship, but he also seemed to know some observation skills. It seemed that he had some adventures when he went out to the mountain.
Yu Qing was a little speechless. He really didn't know how to answer for a while. He said he didn't cheat, which he did, but he was really lucky twice in a row. After thinking about it, he replied: "The first time I drew lots. , I don’t even know what the name is, it’s my first contact with everything, it’s really a coincidence, it’s really good luck.”
Nan and Mu immediately looked at each other and both recognized the clue.
Nanzhu immediately lowered his voice again, "In other words, the second time was not a coincidence?"
Yu Qing thought for a while and replied in a low voice, "This method of drawing lots really showed me some tricks."
really! Nan and Mu looked at each other, both feeling excited. Cheating is a very exciting thing.
However, Nanzhu frowned, "I said, Old Fifteen, you can't do this if you see the way. If you continue to draw empty numbers one after another, everyone will be suspicious. You don't really want to go all the way." Just rely on drawing lots to win. With your mind, I shouldn't need to teach you more about such a simple truth, right?"
"I said, it was just a coincidence the first time, but I didn't fully understand it when I drew lots the second time..." When Yu Qing said this, he didn't know how to explain it. He had just figured it out at the time, because the order of drawing lots was too high. He leaned forward, he didn’t have time to think about it carefully, he just wanted to confirm it casually. He could only figure it out when he stood aside and watched others draw lots. After being speechless for a while, he could only wave his hands and said: “Forget it, I can’t explain this to you, anyway. It’s not what you think, so don’t ask any more questions.”
At the same time, almost all the participants in the Dingyin District were talking about the consecutive draws of empty numbers, and everyone was envious.
Of course, things that didn't cause a fuss at the time will be in the past. After all, there is no evidence, and basically no one will hold on to it. It is rare for people to come forward like this.
More people are discussing tomorrow's second round of competition. Some bystanders have already written down the list of who will play with whom. They are already guessing who will win and who will lose. They are almost making bets secretly.
Just because no one is opening a gambling market in Dingyin District, it doesn’t mean that no one is opening one in other districts...
In the elegant guest house for distinguished guests, Xiang Lanxuan sat in the gauze pavilion and slowly enjoyed the fresh spiritual fruits, which were the freshest ones picked from Linggu.
The value of this plate of fruit, in the secular world, an ordinary family may not be able to earn the money of this plate of fruit in a lifetime.
However, Xiang Lanxuan just took a few bites as a snack and didn't really like it. She focused more on the news she was reading with one hand.
The entourage hurriedly entered the Xuan Pavilion and reported: "Da Zhongxing, the results of the second round of Dingyin District are out."
Xiang Lanxuan immediately raised her head with interest, "Can we see the flower hunter take action tomorrow?"
"This..." The follower was a little confused: "Da Xing, I still don't like this round, I'm afraid I have to wait until the third round."
Xiang Lanxuan was confused, "What do you mean?"
The entourage couldn't help but smile bitterly, "I just received the report. I'm really lucky. In the second round of drawing, I got an empty card again, and I can advance directly without any competition."
"..."
Xiang Lanxuan was confused. Why was it so difficult for her to watch a competition?
After finally regaining consciousness, he put the half-eaten spiritual fruit back into the fruit plate. He slowly stood up and walked around the pavilion with a frown on his face. He carefully thought about the lottery process and murmured: " Why is it him again, cheating?"
The entourage hesitated and said: "This is the old way of drawing lots in previous Chaoyang Conferences. Logically speaking, there should be no problem."
"Indeed, it stands to reason that cheating is unlikely, unless..." Xiang Lanxuan, who was walking back and forth, suddenly stopped and said suspiciously: "Unless Kunling Mountain is helping him cheat."
The entourage questioned: "Da Xingxing, this is unlikely. Even if you want to help him cheat, you shouldn't help him get a consecutive hit. This is too eye-catching and will definitely arouse people's suspicion. Kunlingshan is not stupid. "
Xiang Lanxuan nodded in agreement, "Unless there are some people involved in the lottery in Kunling Mountain who take desperate risks." Then he shook his head and denied, "Logically speaking, that guy Ashheng shouldn't do it so obviously."
The follower was a little strange and couldn't help but bravely question: "It's entirely possible for Da Xingxing to be lucky. Why do you have to suspect that he is cheating?"
Xiang Lanxuan walked back to the case and picked up the bitten spiritual fruit from the plate, "It is indeed possible with good luck, but when it comes to dividing people, there are really a lot of things that happened to that guy, and there are a lot of weird things. , it’s hard not to make people suspicious.” After saying this, he took a hard bite of the fruit and chewed it in his cheeks.
If she insisted on saying this, the entourage wouldn't know what to say...
The Kunling Mountain Sect is well aware of the lottery results for the following areas. In the towering sect hall, a group of senior sect officials gathered to discuss sect affairs. They talked about how they were promoted directly without competition twice. It's a bit of a joke.
Before the topic ended, an old god-like figure appeared outside the gate. It was Huan Yushan, the great elder who was in a semi-retired state and had rarely asked about the specific affairs of the sect.
Everyone in the hall saluted one after another, and the head Zhao Dengzi also bowed to greet him.
The six elders of Kunling Mountain have finally arrived.
Stopping in the center of the hall, Huan Yushan looked around the crowd and asked: "I heard that there was a person in Dingyin District who drew empty numbers in a row. He took advantage of the rules of the conference and was promoted twice in a row without competing. Is that right? Is there such a thing?"
The elders were somewhat surprised when they heard this. Why did this incident alert this person to come in person? From the tone of his voice, he felt that he meant to question him.
An elder couldn't help but said: "Senior brother Huan, you are lucky. The situation in the company is not unreasonable. Why does senior brother pay so much attention to it?"
The leader, Zhao Dengzi, was well aware of this, because Elder Huan knew that Xiang Lanxuan was staring at the lottaker, and even involved Linggu. Now, something like this happened, saying that Luck doesn't feel secure no matter what. Elder Huan is worried that something will happen and can't sit still.
He actually felt the same way, so he mentioned the drawing of lots during the sect's discussions.
Huan Yushan asked: "Is there no possibility of cheating?"
The elder was surprised, "How can you cheat? Could it be that senior brother doesn't trust our disciples?"
Huan Yushan sneered, "This is not something to believe or not to believe, but to take precautions before it happens. Have you ever thought about it? Once or twice can be said to be luck. If the other party wins the third time, what will happen to you? What are the consequences? He is already eligible for the third draw!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone was moved. If we really want to win three times in a row, can we use luck to explain it? Who can believe it? I am afraid that the world will be shocked, and monks all over the world will question the fairness of this Chaoyang Conference. How will Kunling Mountain give an explanation to the cultivation world?
There is no way to explain!
If that kind of thing really happens, Kunling Mountain will definitely bear a stigma, and some of the distinguished guests who have tried so hard to invite may not come to watch the game again in the future.
If a group of attendees continue to shout about injustice, it will be difficult to end the situation.
This time, even the leader, Zhao Dengzi, frowned.
Another elder said: "Brother, how do you want to handle this matter?"
Huan Yushan: "I've already won twice in a row, what else can I do? I can't reject it for no reason, right? I said, what we have to do now is to take precautions before it happens, and we must put an end to any possible cheating. Actions should also be performed in a way that is visible to the outside world, so that it can at least appease the contestants."
He turned to look at Wan Liqiu, the elder of Meteor Palace, "Junior Brother Wan, you are the law enforcement elder and are good at these things. I am afraid that I will have to ask you to take charge of the matter personally this time. You must be aware of everything and don't give anyone a chance to take advantage of the loopholes."
He turned back to look at Zhao Dengzi and asked, "Master, what do you think?"
Zhao Dengzi looked at the reactions of the other elders, saw everyone nodded slightly, and immediately agreed: "Okay, Elder Wan, I'll help you make the trip in person this time."
Wan Liqiu cupped his hands and said, "You should do your best to do your duties in accordance with the decree of the master."
Seeing that the matter was completed, Huan Yushan asked again: "Do you know that in the past Chaoyang Conference, there has been a situation where two empty numbers were promoted in a row?"
Most of the people shook their heads slightly, but only Zhao Dengzi said: "After hearing the news about the company, I asked people to check the past records. It is true that there were two wins, and it was more than once. There are records. I've been hit three times, but they were all isolated, and it's the first time that I've been hit twice in a row."
Huan Yushan sighed, "Those who know me well say that I am worried, so please work hard."
What he said was particularly meaningful. He first bowed his hands to the headmaster, believing that the headmaster understood what he meant, and then bowed his hands to the elders before leaving.
There is a clear spring in the mountain stream and a gurgling stream. There is a small building among the secluded trees on both sides of the bank. Dragon Xingyun walks here leisurely.
Yin Shanhe, who was in the room, noticed the movement and walked out. He was staying here temporarily. When he saw the visitor, he frowned slightly and said, "Didn't I tell you to come here less? If other participants see it, they will get into trouble." Lingshan is difficult to do, so if you have anything to do, just tell the people in Kunlingshan and they will contact me."
"Don't worry, we didn't let other participants see it." Long Xingyun laughed dryly and walked directly to the terrace. Without being polite, he asked directly, "Uncle Yin, how is the situation over there at Gou Tanhua? It won't be the first round. Were you beaten down?"
He was really concerned about this and couldn't help it anymore, so he came to inquire, and they agreed to help him pay attention to Yu Qing's side.
Yin Shanhe said calmly: "You are thinking too much."
Long Xingyun asked again: "How was your strength during the competition?"
The fact that you can ask this shows that you are still somewhat worried.
Yin Shanhe: “I don’t know the depth.”
Long Xingyun was slightly shocked, "Even Uncle Yin, can't you see the depth?"
Yinshanhe: "He didn't play for the competition, so where can I see the difference? In the first round, he got the empty number card of being single, and he was promoted directly without the competition."
Long Xingyun breathed a sigh of relief, "Gou Tanhua is so lucky."
Yin Shanhe seemed to agree with this and said, "I'm very lucky. I drew an empty number in the second round and advanced directly."
"..."
Long Xingyun was stunned, his mouth wide enough to fit an egg in.
At this time, the Kunling Mountain disciples in charge of the competition in Dingyin District suddenly became nervous. The person they were most afraid of had arrived. The law enforcement elder who liked to find faults personally led the Meteor Hall personnel to arrive. From Wu Tian to Sun Lianxing, everyone was trembling with fear. meet.
Chan Shaoyun, who was wandering nearby, ran over excitedly with her skirt in hand, shouting happily as she ran, "Sister Fu Jun, why are you here?"
The female disciple Qin Fujun who was standing next to Wan Liqiu looked back when he heard the sound, with a smile on his face, and turned to face him.
