Chapter 86 Is He Really a Genius?

The recruitment conference held by Hulong Villa not only requires money to register for the competition, but also requires tickets to watch the competition in person tomorrow, so he made this guess.

This outrageous guess made the four people present frown.

"Please, I heard that the boss of Hulong Villa is the uncle of the current emperor. How could he be without money?"

Lu Ping smiled and continued to speculate: "If it's not for money, then there must be some high-ranking official in the court who wants to gild the younger generation of his family!"

Several people were stunned again: "Your guess is even more outrageous than the previous one!"

"Why do you say that?"

"You're asking why... This is Hulong Villa, an intelligence agency, how could it be used to gild the reputation?"

"That's right... If you want to be gilded, the Six Gates and the Imperial Guards are clearly better!"

"This is impossible, and that is ridiculous... It can't be that the emperor is afraid of the Divine Marquis and wants to plant a secret agent in the Dragon Guarding Villa, right?"

The four of them gasped when they heard this and stared at Lu Ping with wide eyes.

"How dare you say such a thing? Are you trying to kill yourself?!"

"Hurry up and shut up, be careful, the walls may have ears!"

"Although I don't know much about the Jianghu, I have often heard people say that the 'Iron-hearted Divine Marquis' is loyal during my stay in the capital. The emperor should have no reason to do that, right?"

Lu Ping chuckled: "This is about the royal family, who can say for sure?"

Zhu Wusi in this world also manages his reputation very well.

Lu Ping didn't know whether he was truly loyal or just pretending to be kind, or whether he coveted Su Xin and the throne. In short, these had nothing to do with him for the time being, so he didn't bother to care.

After eating and drinking, the group of five left. The meal was paid for by Linghu Chong, who was the oldest, most generous and spendthrift.

Seeing Linghu Chong’s generosity, Lu Ping really wanted to say: My family, it’s time for dinner again!
No matter what kind of person he is in the original work or in the eyes of readers, since he invited me to dinner, he is a good brother.

During this trip to the capital, they met four like-minded friends. Even though they have not seen the grand recruitment meeting yet, the five of them all feel that the trip has been worthwhile.

When going downstairs, Lu Ping heard a familiar erhu sound in a trance.

However, because he was saying goodbye to Zhang Wuji and others, he didn't pay attention to it. After leaving the inn and walking two streets, he put the matter out of his mind.

And inside the inn, the sound of the erhu came from...

If Lu Ping were here and saw someone playing the erhu, he would understand why he felt familiar with the erhu sound.

Because the man playing the erhu was none other than the blind old Wu who had played music for the guests in the first-class inn in Taiping Town not long ago. He was also one of the guest officials sent by the "No. 1 Village in the World" to deal with the bandits in Black Wind Village!

The box where Old Wu was staying was right next to where Lu Ping and others had just had dinner.

In this box, besides him, the Laqu artist, there were three others, who were the three secret agents of Hulong Villa: Duan Tianya, Gui Hai Yidao and Shangguan Haitang.

This inn is simply the property of the best village in the world!

Even the "steamed bun grabbing competition" at the door is actually a means for Tianxia No. 1 Village to discover local masters.

Duan Tianya and the other two couldn't sleep all night because of the conversation with Zhu Wusi last night, so they met here today to have an in-depth discussion about this recruitment conference.

However, he unexpectedly ran into Lu Ping who was showing off his skills in the 'steamed bun grabbing competition', and then accidentally overheard their conversation while they were having dinner.

At this time, Lu Ping and the others left. After the three waved to Old Wu, who was playing the erhu, to leave, they finally revealed their surprise. "That kid actually guessed it? Who is he?"

"The emperor is going to take action against the Divine Marquis... If we hadn't heard the same news from the Divine Marquis himself last night, I would have thought he was talking nonsense."

"I don't know if it was a blind cat that caught a dead mouse, or if I really saw some clues from somewhere..."

For a moment, all three of them were silent, wondering in their hearts: Is he really a genius?

"How about...we go and give it a try?"

"That's exactly what I meant!"

Duan Tianya nodded and agreed, "It's not just the boy named Qi Lu Ren. I'm also concerned about the other guys, so let's test them as well."

"But the disciples of Taihua and Wudang don't need to do that, to avoid unnecessary trouble."

"In that case, leave the knife-wielding one to me."

Gui Hai Yidao, who has always been taciturn, suddenly took the initiative to choose his opponent this time.

Duan Tianya opened his mouth but said nothing in the end.

In fact, he was thinking about testing Jian Wuji himself, because from the moves he had just seen in the competition, he judged that the opponent was most likely from Japan, and he happened to have studied in Japan.

If I were to test Jian Wuji, maybe we could have a common topic, and there would be no need for fighting.

But since Yidao spoke first, I should just give way...

"Then I will be responsible for that Qi Lu Ren..."

"No, brother, leave this person to me!"

The second best opponent was robbed again, and Duan Tianya was surprised again: "Why?"

Shangguan Haitang smiled slightly and said, "I think that person has deep thoughts, and I'm afraid you can't handle him. In comparison, the young man from Yihua Palace is easier to see through."

Are you calling me stupid?!

To be fair, among the three people present, although Shangguan Haitang has the worst martial arts skills, her IQ and EQ are higher than the other two combined.

Duan Tianya's mouth twitched, but he finally agreed: "This... okay."

My sister has already spoken, as the eldest brother, how can I not do as she says?
……

At night, Lu Ping returned to the inn where he was staying and finally opened the system panel in his mind.

[The main mission 'Winning the Steamed Bun Competition' has been completed. Please choose one of the following three rewards]:
1. Cold waves split the sea (Bohanbo)
2. Fortune comes (gold wrapped in silver)
3. Unbreakable (brain still upside down)
"Not a weapon, not a spell, but a martial art?"

I don’t know if the system was updated quietly, but this time when giving out martial arts rewards, their original user information and the effects of the moves in the original drama were also displayed.

There are more than a thousand martial arts, weapons, and props in the Pili world. It is difficult to remember them one by one, but with this patch, it will be much easier and more convenient to answer multiple-choice questions in the future.

But when Lu Ping finished looking at all three rewards, his brows furrowed.

"What kind of rubbish martial arts are these? How dare you bring them out to embarrass yourself?"

"The dog system seems to be getting worse and worse these days. Is it because my novice protection period has passed?"
