In the end, it was Xiao Fengnan who won Tianya City, as long as he didn't listen to his mother, everything would be easy to handle.Xiao Yunhan's character is to protect her mother from being targeted by the family, but if there is a conflict between her brother and mother, she actually has nothing to do.
"But how to win Fengnan to my side?" Xiao Chengren was troubled.
Xiao Xiaole reminded: "Xiao Chenglin, you can use her to drive a wedge between Princess Chu and the young master."
...Xiao Chenglin?
Xiao Chengren stroked his beard.
This Xiao Chenglin, he wanted to kill him quickly, and almost killed Fengnan, implicating the family plan, and subconsciously regarded her as a dead person in his heart, but he didn't expect that it could also become a card in his hand.
--------------
The next day.
Before dawn, Chu Mingkong's figure appeared near the martial arts platform, and there were already many people waiting here for a long time.
These people are all ready to fight. After all, a contestant is surrounded by several elders, and the weapons in their hands silently warn the surroundings - "Don't fight me."
Now this group of people who can still gather here can be said to be the "survivors" in the "Jade Card Raid" in the past few days.
It's just that they are all guarding against whether there will be people with malicious intentions. Before the martial arts performance begins, they will continue to try to eliminate opponents off the court.
Suddenly, a faint stench permeated the crowd.
Someone held his breath and quickly drew his knife out:
"Who is it! You still want to do something like this, right? Before the martial arts performance started, you still wanted to poison yourself, so stand up!"
"I'm sorry, I just farted." A bystander tremblingly raised his hand to admit his mistake. He is just an ordinary person, without bigu, so it is inevitable to encounter such embarrassing things.
Everyone: "..."
Chu Mingkong took a seat in a nearby restaurant, and there were Zuo Qiuchi, Fengying, and the shrunken armored panda get away.
But Zuo Qiuchi and Fengying had eaten the dim sum that Chu Mingkong took out, and they didn't like the cakes in restaurants and teahouses anymore, so Chu Mingkong paid for them, ordering a few dishes symbolically, and then he took out dim sum for them to eat.
"There are a lot fewer people. It seems that there has been a lot of trouble these days." Chu Mingkong looked at the storage rings in his hand.
It is full of jade cards, basically, he can fight whoever he wants, and choose his opponent independently.
Zuo Qiuchi ate a few mouthfuls of pastries, took the peanuts and threw them over to the rolling egg, the rolling egg jumped up and caught it with his mouth, and when he fell back to the chair from the air, the fat on his buttocks shook "duang~duang~" .
Zuo Qiuchi asked:
"Mingkong, didn't you just go to Tianya Tower yesterday? With Yunhan's relationship, let the elders there arrange it for you. It's very troublesome to carry so many jade tokens."
"That's different. I went to Tianyalou without revealing my identity. Tianyalou is currently more optimistic about the benefits that the Xiao family can bring to Xiling. It must have listened to the Xiao family's arrangements more than mine, and will not forcibly disobey Xiao Chengren's." Meaning, arrange another opponent for Xiao Fengnan, and take the jade card to deal with unexpected situations, so at least I still have the right to choose actively."
Zuo Qiuchi thought about it too, she lifted Chu Mingkong's head armor again, and threw a bun into it.She asked Fengying:
"Fengying, is there any clue about the matter of the extremely dark core?"
"No, but it doesn't have much relationship with the Xiao family. The Xiao family did recruit some Xiling soldiers, but the idea was to take over Xiling in the future, so that no one would listen to their orders. I can't guarantee that this is all the information. There may be changes, but this is what I have found out in the past few days."
Zuo Qiuchi naturally knew that it was difficult to collect information. With such a short time, she couldn't be asked to find out everything. She asked again:
"But didn't you hear from Ming Kong before that the Xiao family secretly inquired about Ming Kong's route to Beijing?"
"Indeed, but they seem to be worried that Ming Kong has escaped, secretly protecting and supervising his safe arrival in the capital, lest Xiao Fengnan be the proton in the end.
In fact, people from the Xiao family helped Ming Kong block a group of assassins at that time, but these spies basically disappeared in the abyss disaster. "
Good guy, Chu Mingkong was still wondering what the Xiao family would do with his travel route after they bribed the officer in Xiling. It turned out that he was "secretly escorting" him!
This old dog Xiao Chengren really thought too far.
Chu Mingkong remembered something and said:
"My grandfather of the Xiao family, in the past two days, he may have tampered with the Qingxin Mansion. If you notice, please help to stop it."
Get out and said proudly:
"Xiao Mingkong, don't worry, I've helped you with this favor, and I will protect you well."
While chatting, the martial arts performance below began.
Chu Mingkong was not idle, he took out all his jade cards to see which one would light up.
In the first batch, it was true that the big bald heads beat their own people, and they simply, in line with the idea of preserving their strength, surrendered to those with weaker cultivation bases, and the remaining bald heads continued to join the bronze man formation.
However, the elders of Tianyalou didn't make it so deliberate. They still arranged for the Buddhist sect to face off against those scattered people and disciples of the sect, but it was only a few rounds.
"Do you want to finish the fight in one day?" Zuo Qiuchi looked at the number of people, it seemed that it would not last for a few days, and some Buddhist monks had already started the third round.
"It should be." Chu Mingkong said, "The people in Tianya Tower mentioned that they have the idea of speeding up and want to end the martial arts performance earlier. Anyway, they are all in the target."
"Huh? There is movement in Qingxin Mansion, I'll go back and have a look." Fengying said suddenly.
"Then I'll follow along to have a look, I'm so bored here!" Zuo Qiuchi couldn't sit still, no matter how delicious the dim sum was, he should be tired of eating it.
Chu Mingkong waited for a long time, but Xiao Fengnan finally showed up.
--------
PS: I'm going to queue up for a national test, and the update after today is expected to be later
Chapter 220 The Cocoon Room (3/20)
Seeing the Xiao family's team approaching, Chu Mingkong stared at the jade token in his hand with wide eyes, waiting for a match with him, and went in to give him an iron fist lesson.
It's just that Chu Mingkong soon discovered the clue - there seems to be no Xiao Fengnan in the carriage!
"Where is Xiao Fengnan? He didn't even come to the martial arts competition?" Chu Mingkong was surprised.
Should not be.
It happened that Chu Mingkong met the fat butler in the team of Xiao's family. It was this fat butler who delivered the jade plaque to him at the city gate before. He recognized the armor of "Zuogejue".
Chu Mingkong put away the jade token on the table, left the restaurant after paying the bill, and walked towards Xiao's house.
The fat butler originally looked at the crowded street with an irritable face, cursing in his heart that these ignorant people dared to come to grab the seat of the Xiao family's city lord, but when he saw the familiar armor, his face was full of flesh. into a bright smile.
"Your Excellency Zuo, why are you here? The head of my family is still thinking about why you don't stay in the mansion after working hard, and I can't find you even if I want to contact you!"
Chu Mingkong casually found a reason to evade the small talk, and said:
"I found a brothel to live in. The Tianji Empire has a vast territory, so it's rare to stop here. How can I not appreciate the customs and customs of Xiling?"
The fat butler has served Xiao Chengren for many years. Even if he doesn't tell him many things, he can still guess. The layout of the mansion and the arrangement of personnel are all handled by the fat butler. He naturally knows what happened with Princess Chu and whom in the mansion that day. , but naturally he won't talk nonsense.
With a "hehehe" smile on his face, he said:
"If you've eaten a good one, how can you still taste it if you eat it in a brothel?"
Chu Mingkong didn't want to talk about it, so he skipped the subject and said:
"Where's your Young Master Xiao?"
The fat butler was a little hesitant to say, he is a butler of the Xiao family, how can outsiders answer whatever they ask, but thinking that patriarch Xiao has wooed this person so well now, if he is upset, patriarch Xiao will still settle the score on him in the future superior.
"Young Master Xiao is still in the future, so Patriarch Xiao called to discuss things."
Hearing this, Chu Mingkong was even more puzzled, Xiao Chengren called Xiao Fengnan away? !
"Discuss things at this time? Then he won't be able to compete in martial arts. Is Patriarch Xiao planning to give up the position of the city lord?"
"This... It's inconvenient to tell outsiders, but Your Excellency Zuo is not an outsider. Please don't spread it outside, Your Excellency Zuo."
After all, the fat manager took out a jade card, which belonged to Xiao Fengnan, and now the jade card was glowing, but after a while, the light on the jade card turned green, which meant victory.
Chu Mingkong understood what this meant, and Xiao Chengren knew that Xiao Fengnan had a bye now, so there was no need to worry that he would miss it.
Now it's just to let the Xiao family's team come over for a cutscene, to let others know that Xiao Fengnan's round is coming, and it's only when he comes that he realizes that he has a bye. dispute.
From the looks of it, this is to make Xiao Fengnan only play the last game?
"Is this all right?"
Chu Mingkong was speechless, he was still thinking that with so many cards he had prepared, he would always meet Xiao Fengnan, but in the end, his idea was to use the jade cards to turmoil, and he would have a bye directly, so he would not even play.
In fact, Chu Mingkong’s own jade token was just a disguised bye just now. His jade token and one of the batch of jade tokens brought by Get Out had a reaction, but the owner of that jade token was driven away. , Chu Mingkong crushed the jade card and abstained, and he won.
The elders of Tianya Building have organized so many martial arts competitions, and they probably never expected that this habit of "recognizing cards but not people" will appear this year. It is usually so chaotic.
Chu Mingkong wanted to go back to the Qingxin Mansion to see what happened, but he couldn't guarantee that his jade card would have a bye every time. If he didn't come back in time to enter the secret realm for a competition, he would be considered abstaining after the time passed. .
That's not worth the loss.
I can only believe that Fengying and the others can handle things properly.
Chu Mingkong didn't continue to talk to the fat butler, he went back to the restaurant and continued to sit and wait, but the fat butler found the whereabouts of Your Excellency Zuo here, and hurriedly called for someone to come over.
"Come here, hurry up and find the patriarch, and tell him that Your Excellency Zuo has appeared here at Yanwutai."
--------------
Xiao's mansion, the carriage galloped in.
The people in the car did not get out of the car and continued to chat.
"Grandpa, why are you in a hurry to call Fengnan over?" Xiao Fengnan was a little impetuous, and this impetuousness came from not being able to arrive at the martial arts arena in the first time.
He has heard how rampant the recent arrogance of Buddhism is, but no one can cure them, it is really sad!
However, Xiao Fengnan only consolidated the realm he had just broken through in the early morning. The elixir came here and it was nothing more than helping him break through. His cultivation continued to rise and reached the middle of the new stage.
He has also cultivated several kinds of weapons, and the short sword he uses the most is barely passed the sword master realm, but after the transformation of Wujin, he can feel a big difference, and he can't tell what it is It's different, I just feel that my previous self was really stupid, and my understanding of weapons would stop here.This kind of feeling is like a person who reads the poems he wrote when he was a child and laments his childishness in the past when he is an adult.
Now Xiao Fengnan is anxious to let the world know about his transformation. He will beat the evil monk of the Buddhist sect who is troublesome to everyone, and then in the eyes of everyone, he will become the owner of Tianya City and the de facto King of Xiling.
He wished that this moment would come right away and happen right in front of him, but now he was called back to the mansion by his grandfather Xiao Chengren on the grounds of "some important matter related to Cousin Chenglin".
"You don't need to worry, you won't miss the performance of martial arts, you need to stand at the end with a full posture, and don't care about these little shrimps in front...I called you here to confirm one thing with you, are you really Do you hate your cousin Cheng Lin so much?"
Xiao Chengren looked embarrassed and sad, Xiao Fengnan looked at his grandfather, who always had a confident expression of winning, and rarely showed such an expression.Xiao Fengnan didn't understand what grandpa's words meant.
"I don't quite understand what you said, Grandpa. Why do I hate Cousin Chenglin? Didn't my concubine convey my meaning to Grandpa? Cousin Chenglin took good care of me, although she did bring me a book of medical skills, But the Wujin matter is my own decision, my own choice, all the pain and consequences are borne by myself, don't make things difficult for Cousin Chenglin!"
Seeing that his grandson really cares about Xiao Chenglin so much, Xiao Chengren is relieved.Before finding Xiao Fengnan, Xiao Chengren had already tortured and threatened Xiao Chenglin, asking her to cooperate so that she would not die.
Xiao Chengren continued to show his distressed expression, and sighed:
"I am also very embarrassed about this matter. Fengnan, you are the hope that the Xiao family poured into, and Cheng Lin is also my brother and sister. I don't want to see any accidents in the family because of the family relationship, but she almost got you involved. The family law should die, but I can't bear it, your cousin Chenglin is our family!
Your concubine mother said that Cheng Lin has been bewitching you to do wrong things, and you should get rid of her so that she will not harm you in the future. I secretly saved Cheng Lin, just to see if you are willing to read it in the name of the family, and forgive you Cousin Chenglin died, and she was sent to the farm to spend the rest of her life in remembrance. "
Only now did Xiao Chengren get out of the car and took Xiao Fengnan to see Xiao Chenglin.
