At this time, the masked woman was still performing the magic of chaos on the stage, twisting her waist and raising her crotch, and raised her finger to ring the bell.
Monk Tongde could originally hold his staff with one hand and chant sutras with his palms raised. After a while, he must have been aroused by the charm of his inner demons. In order to calm down and control himself, he could only sit cross-legged, hold the staff across his legs, clasped his hands together, and chanted sutras quickly.
Datou has been standing next to Changsheng. Like Changsheng, his mind is not on the arena in front of him. The situation outside the arena has gradually become clear. In addition to the nine champions, there are also six temporary alliances formed by many small sects. , at this time one of the alliances has chosen Prajna Temple as the target, trying to replace it with human sea tactics.
"Sir, do you think Prajna Temple can be defended?" Datou asked in a low voice.
"It's hard to say." Changsheng shook his head and said.
Datou said, "The monk on the stage has a cultivation base of the Great Cave, and has deep blue spiritual energy. There must be more powerful masters than him in Prajna Temple. Even if this monk loses, there will be more powerful monks on the stage. This ragtag group of people have the highest spiritual energy cultivation level." It's nothing more than a deep blue hole. Once the purple energy masters from Prajna Temple come on stage, they will die as many as they get into."
"You mean that Prajna Temple can hold its position as the leader?" Changsheng tilted his head and looked at him.
"It should be possible." Big Head nodded.
"Not necessarily," Chang Sheng shook his head, "Even if all these people are defeated and the details of Prajna Temple are revealed by them, the remaining five alliances will still choose Prajna Temple as their attack target. No matter how powerful Prajna Temple is, It can’t withstand such a round of consumption.”
"If this rabble succeeds, will the remaining groups follow suit and follow suit?" Datou was worried.
"This is also what I am worried about," Changsheng said. "You must have seen that the Salt Gang and the Beggar Gang had sent people to contact them before, but those alliances did not buy it. Except for the Salt Gang and the Beggar Gang, The other six champions are as stable as a rock, and judging from their expressions, they don't seem to want to win over these rabble."
"I understand," Datou suddenly realized, "The reason why those champions did not come to win over these people is because even if Prajna Temple loses, the remaining people will not come to snatch the positions of other champions. They will only Steal the champion who originally belonged to Prajna Temple, because this champion is the weakest and is the best to rob."
Hearing Da Tou's words, Changsheng nodded slowly. Da Tou said what he said made sense. The next development of things is likely to be as Da Tou expected.
While the two were talking, Monk Tongde, who was sitting cross-legged, suddenly opened his eyes, hurriedly took out his right palm, and flipped the Zen staff upside down. The Zen staff received force and flew out, hitting the masked woman in the chest and abdomen. The masked woman screamed. He flew out of the ring and landed on his back, falling on his back.
After being stunned for a long time, several invigilators came to their senses, rang the gong, and declared the contestant the winner.
When the gong sounded, someone immediately jumped out and stepped onto the ring.
Although Monk Tongde withstood the charm of the masked woman, he was exhausted physically and mentally. Most people like to take advantage of him, and this man was no exception. He rushed to the stage because he found Monk Tongde in a low spirit.
But after this person came to power, an old monk with a white beard who was over sixty years old came out of the Prajna Temple. After announcing his identity, he replaced the exhausted monk Tongde.
The white-bearded old monk who took the stage this time was of the same year as the monk. He was Tongde's senior brother and the abbot of Prajna Temple.
Like the abbot of the Taoist sect, the abbot of the Buddhist sect is also the second-in-command of a temple. The highest status in a temple is the abbot, and the highest status in a Taoist temple is the rector.
Seeing that Tongde was replaced in the same year, the guy who rushed to the stage was dumbfounded. He originally wanted to come up and pinch the persimmon, but who would have thought that they would replace the persimmon with a hedgehog, which put him in a dilemma.
In the same year, he detested this man's character and showed no mercy. When the gong rang again, he immediately bullied him and struck him in the chest, beating him until he wailed and screamed, vomited blood and flew backwards.
Changsheng and Datou were very close to the ring and could clearly see that this monk of the same age activated his spiritual energy when he took action, and his complexion was revealed. This man was cultivated in the mountains and had lavender spiritual energy.
Big Cave Deep Blue and Jushan Lilac seem to be only one step away, but in fact they are worlds apart. Although Big Cave Deep Blue has the ultimate blue energy, it is still in the stage of refining Qi and becoming a god, while Jushan Lilac has just reached the threshold of purple energy. , but it is already the stage of great achievement in refining the spirit and returning it to the void.
The master's clumsy palm of the same year was so powerful because of his pure spiritual energy cultivation.
Everyone in Prajna Temple is not a fool. They have already seen that the mob outside the venue has regarded them as targets. The reason why everyone did this is also very simple, that is, in the eyes of everyone, Prajna Temple is the weakest among the nine champions.
Monk is also a human being. Although the four elements are empty, he can't escape the joy, anger, sorrow and joy. Being looked down upon by others made the monk of Prajna Temple very angry. After he came to power in the same year, his attacks were heavier than those of Tongde. No one who came to power could escape intact. In the end, A mild injury can result in vomiting blood, while a severe injury can directly damage the muscles and bones.
After being promoted to purple energy, the reaction speed will also be accelerated, but this does not mean that the opponent will be unable to parry when the purple energy master moves. The biggest change that purple energy cultivation brings to oneself is the increase in power.
At this time, it was Shenshi, and no one from the other eight arenas came on stage to challenge. Only the arena where Prajna Temple was located still had people stepping forward. In the same year, he was also very aware of the situation of Prajna Temple. In order to stabilize his position, he made everyone retreat in the face of difficulties. , and the attacks became more and more severe. In the later stage, anyone who came to the stage to challenge was seriously injured and was carried out of the field.
Seeing that the Youshi hour is coming, the number of people taking the stage to challenge is gradually decreasing, and the same year feels a little lighter. Just when the competition is about to end, an ordinary-looking middle-aged man jumps off the stage.
Because this person used spiritual energy when he was about to die, his complexion was revealed. This person was a Dongxuan cultivator and had light blue spiritual energy.
Just because he knew that this person's spiritual energy cultivation was not high, he underestimated the enemy a little. When the gong sounded, he bullied him directly and slapped him in the chest.
The middle-aged man groaned and got off the ground, retreating and flying backwards.
After repelling the middle-aged man, Tong Nian suddenly frowned, hurriedly turned his palms and lowered his head, and looked carefully. When he discovered that his right palm was covered with small black wounds, he immediately reacted and knew that the other man was wearing poison-quenching soft armor. This time he came to the stage. Aiming to poison and plot.
Looking up again, I saw that the middle-aged man had flown out of the field at this time. Although the corner of his mouth was bleeding, there was a look of pride on his face that the trick had succeeded.
Seeing this situation, Tong Nian became furious. He stepped on the ground to use his strength, lunged forward, came to the sidelines and thrust out his left hand. The lavender spiritual energy burst out of his body and caught the middle-aged man back in the air from nine feet away, with his right palm on his head. He patted the opponent directly until his orifices bled, and he died on the spot.
Many people didn't know why. When they saw that the same year actually used a trick to make up for the attack and killed him, many people booed in surprise. Big Tou also looked at Changsheng with surprised eyes. The reason why he looked at Changsheng was because Changsheng had also used similar tactics. It's just that Changsheng didn't advance to the purple spirit and couldn't catch his opponent in the air like he did in the same year. Instead, he rushed to the sidelines and dragged his opponent back to the ring.
In the same year, he cultivated to a pure level. Although he was poisoned, the poison did not occur. Instead, he stimulated his spiritual energy to try to force out the poison. Dark poisonous blood dripped slowly along his fingertips.
It's one thing to be injured, it's one thing to be disabled, but it's another thing to be killed directly. I saw that in the same year, I started to kill people, and no one outside the field came to the stage to challenge.
Almost all offenses, provocations, and insults are because the cost of making mistakes is too low and the price to pay is too small.
After a while, the Youshi hour came, and today's martial arts competition ended here. Everyone left and they will fight again tomorrow.
After the competition ended, Changsheng was not in a hurry to leave, and came to the east side of the square again. At this time, Zhang Shan had already left the field with his colleagues. Seeing him coming this way, Zhang Mo stayed where he was, waiting for him to come.
"Uncle Master, what can I do?" Changsheng asked.
"You have done everything you can," Zhang Mo said softly, "You can't interfere in the main competition, we will handle it."
Changsheng nodded.
"Okay, go back quickly. We still need to discuss some things together." Zhang Mo turned around to leave.
Upon seeing this, Chang Sheng hurriedly called out to Zhang Mo, "Uncle Master, the rules of the competition are set by the imperial court. They are likely to change the rules tomorrow. You must be more careful."
Zhang Mo turned around and nodded, "Okay, I understand."
"Also," Changsheng said again, "the children's list was originally scheduled for seven days, but it only lasted five days. The main list will probably not be able to compare for seven days."
"Well, I've thought about it too. Let's go back quickly." Zhang Mochong waved his hand to Changsheng, then walked quickly to catch up with Zhang Shan and others in front.
After everyone left, the waiters from Baoqing Inn who were waiting in the distance came to move the tables and chairs. They all recognized Chang Sheng and greeted him with courtesy.
Changsheng said, "Bring in the tables and chairs early tomorrow and prepare some tea. Go back and tell your shopkeeper that I have caused you trouble again."
The waiters at the inn are all smart and clever people. How could they not understand the meaning of Chang Sheng's words? With smiles on their faces, they could only say that it was the honor of Baoqing Inn to share his worries.
Datou has been waiting in the distance. When Changsheng returns, he will walk back with him.
Not far away, he met Ni Tai from the Ni family. Ni Tai was not waiting here to invite them to the Ni Mansion for dinner, but came to tell the immortal that Ni Chenyi had made snacks for him earlier and had sent them to the imperial palace in the afternoon. Shitai.
Hearing Ni Tai's words, Changsheng nodded. He was very worried about Longhu Mountain now, and he was not in the mood to be in love with Ni Chenyi's children. Ni Chenyi's behavior was also very considerate, expressing her concern for him without disturbing him. .
Seeing Ni Tai was about to leave, Datou hurriedly called out to him, "Hey, little brother, you have been to Yushitai in the afternoon. Is there anything going on at Yushitai?"
Changsheng didn't know why and frowned at him.
Ni Tai replied, "I don't know what happened. The whole street is full of officials from various yamen."
"Oh, okay, thank you, go back quickly." Datou said.
After Ni Tai left, Chang Sheng frowned and looked at Da Tou, "What's going on?"
Datou smiled and said, "It's no big deal. I sent someone to send your assassination and ours separately this morning. The officials who received the assassination must come to express their gratitude."
"No wonder you didn't let Yang Kai come with you," Chang Sheng said with a smile, "So you left him at home to receive the gift."
Big Head chuckled.
"Just stay at home. He is not good at words and cannot handle these things well." Changsheng said.
"No, no, no, it's more appropriate for him to handle it," Datou said. "He is serious in speech and has more authority."
The two of them walked while talking, with the big head walking slowly and walking slowly. They walked for almost half an hour before they returned to the Yushitai.
It was already dark at this time, and there were a large number of carriages, horses, and officials in front of the main entrance of Yushitai. Seeing this, Changsheng hurriedly sent Datou to help, and he slipped back to the backyard through the back door.
Because I had been staying in the library for the past few days and had not slept well, I stood outside the square for another day during the day. I had not eaten any water or rice. I was tired, hungry, and sleepy. I thought that Ni Chenyi had brought snacks during the day, so I did not go. Instead of eating in the dining hall, he returned to the main room and opened the food box.
According to his original intention, he would eat something and go to sleep. Who would have thought that the so-called snacks were actually a pile of dough that was half-hard and not soft between porridge and rice. The dark color was also very weird, and it was not black at all. It's white or not, but it's yellow and a little green, making it colorful.
When I smelled the smell again, it was also very strange. It wasn't smelly, but it definitely wasn't fragrant either.
There were chopsticks in the food box. I picked up a piece of chopsticks and wanted to taste it. Who would have thought that this stuff was so sticky that it even stuck to the plate below.
In desperation, I carefully took a small bite and realized that this thing was very sticky to the teeth. There must be glutinous rice flour in it. When I tasted it carefully, it was just sweet and salty, but also fishy and bitter.
Fortunately, he is proficient in the art of qihuang and can distinguish medicines. In addition to glutinous rice, there should be honey, ginseng powder, Ganoderma lucidum powder, and dendrobium powder. The salty one should be pearl powder, and the fishy one should be deer fetus powder.
Changsheng was the least picky eater, but he really couldn't swallow this food. It would be a pity to throw it away, so he could only take it to the side room and give it to Mr. Hei.
I had to go to the dining hall to finish my meal. When I returned, I found that there were still lights and voices in the courtyard where the court was located. Da Tou and Yang Kai must still be receiving visiting officials.
As soon as I returned to the backyard, I heard Young Master Hei sneezing repeatedly. He opened the curtain and went in to see that it was the sticky stuff stuck to his mouth. Young Master Hei couldn't swallow it and couldn't shake it off. He was in the stable. Shaking his head...
