One or two branches of plum outside the bamboo

Chapter 438
At the end of the twelfth day of the seventh month, the weather in Sword Casting City was fine, and the heat of midsummer had not yet evaporated, but there were already a lot of people around the newly built competition arena in Dongcheng.

The last time Zhujian Villa held a martial arts competition was seven years ago. A famous swordsman for more than ten years came out on top. After waiting in Zhujian City for a year, he got a tailor-made sword for him. of a long sword.

It is said that it cuts iron like mud and is unparalleled sharpness.

It's a pity that the man was unlucky, he was chased to death within two years, and the whereabouts of the long sword were unknown.

However, the fame of the long sword was finally sold out. In recent years, there have been many stories surrounding the man and the sword. Until recently, the fragments of the treasure map of the ancient underground palace were found, and the magic weapon was heat off.

But the popularity of the magic weapon has diminished, but the hearts of everyone chasing the magic weapon have never been weakened.

Therefore, although this competition was a little rushed because of Yan Qingzhi, there were not a few people participating.

The gong of 'Dangdang' sounded in the ring in the center of the competition arena. Everyone who heard the movement couldn't help but look over there.

In the newly built restaurant not far from the competition arena, people in the private room on the third floor heard the movement, raised their hands and rolled up the bamboo curtains that blocked the sun, flipped their rough fingers, and tied the bamboo curtains with straw ropes hanging from the windows. After staying, he turned around and looked at the people behind him who were eating and drinking.

"Jinger, you haven't finished eating early, so don't be busy. I won't be on the court today. It's good to go out and feel the atmosphere when you're full after a while."

The rules were announced today, and many people came to watch the fun. After beating gongs and drums, two firecrackers were set off, and a lion dance team was also invited.

The voice below caught Yu Jing'er's attention. While agreeing to Yan Qingzhi's words, she turned her head greedily and glanced at the liveliness over there.

Yan Qingzhi had seen too much excitement and was not interested in crowded scenes, and Mei Heng had already arranged for the people from Tianjing Division to watch the rules.

Although Zhu Fanghai has said it in advance, this kind of effortless preparation with both hands is still to be done. If Zhu Fanghai misses any important news, or the Zhu family hides something from Zhu Fanghai, it will not be worth it!

Soon, someone from the Tianjing Division knocked on the door. A Xuanwei, who was familiar to Yan Qingzhi, walked in, and smoothly recited the rules he had just memorized to everyone. After comparing the two sides, it was found that Zhu Fanghai was indeed a Reliable person, there is no deviation from the rules told her.

After the confirmation, a few people finished eating before going to the competition arena for two laps. After finding that the people who went up the previous day were all small fish and shrimp, they went home in a moody mood.

Sure enough, none of the people here are fools. They are all ready to preserve their strength and recharge their batteries, and are ready to wait for the last day to fight for the position of the leader!
As for those who are on stage now, they all know that they can't hold on to the end, and before the big shot doesn't make a move, they will beat their reputation first.

Think about it, if someone can stand in a ring for a day today, even if he fails to enter the next round in the end, it will leave an impression in the minds of many people in the arena.

If you can stand for two days, then you will naturally become more famous. Even if you are kicked out of the ring by the boss, you can say that you are actually over-exhausted, otherwise you can have a fight with the other party...

Everyone has their own thoughts, but everyone really rushed on the last day!
Yan Qingzhi rested calmly after returning, and while adjusting her state, she listened to the news sent by the people from Tianjing Division every hour.

Although he was not on the scene, he knew the situation on the field very well.

When Yan Qingzhi was leisurely here, Mei Heng was busy there. After he came back from breakfast with everyone, he disappeared. Guan Shao began to play with his small organs again. Meng Yushang was bored lying in the room. After basking in the sun, Yu Jinger diligently washed Meng Yushang's clothes, and then cleaned up the small courtyard where she and Yan Qingzhi lived from the inside out.

The first day of the competition was spent in such an atmosphere.

The next day, Yan Qingzhi still didn't go to the competition arena. She calmed down, practiced martial arts meditation, cultivated herself in general, and adjusted herself to the best state!
The third day of the ring competition came in such a state.

On July [-]th, it was another sunny day. Yan Qingzhi woke up feeling refreshed. When she woke up, she practiced the exercises as usual and had breakfast...

Because it was not far from the competition arena, they didn't take a carriage, so they walked over slowly.

There are indeed a lot of people today, and the competition field looks different from the original one.

Under each arena, there are sheds, some people are selling herbal tea, and some people are opening gambling tables... In front of the sheds, there are flags of various colors floating, and each color represents a profession.

Although Yan Qingzhi came very early, there were more people than her, such as hawkers selling tea and breakfast, and some people waving various rosters, and some people came quietly to sell them news, saying that it was from every master The unique skills are all recorded in the book, you can study their routines in a targeted manner, increase your winning rate, etc...

Some people were mixed in, some people were discussing something, and someone like Yan Qingzhi walked in, only to feel that their brains were buzzing. If there was someone with a loud voice standing beside them, it would be crazy to lose san value.

However, that's what made her feel fresh.

Before the start of the competition, some champions had already come to the stage early, standing there talking to others, or playing two stances, I don't know if it was a show or a provocation.

There are also some empty arenas, but the people around the arena are very crowded.

This kind of crowding is divided into two types. One is that there are many people watching the excitement, and the other is that there are many people who are eager to try. From the expressions of these people, you can roughly tell the strength of those people in the ring.

After a few people turned around, Meng Yushang, who had seen more lively, was obviously tired of the crowd here.

"It's going to be so hot today, there are so many people, what's there to see! Look at me, I'm going back!"

Meng Yushang looked irritable, not pleasing to anyone.

Yan Qingzhi was too lazy to pay attention to her, and turned to look at the people around her, just to find that Yu Jinger was a little weak, so she asked.

"Jing'er, it's too hot today, I don't think you're feeling very well, otherwise go back with Miss Meng!"

In today's competition, Yan Qingzhi was not false at all, and he did not ask the relatives and friends to come and watch the battle.

Besides, the sun in Sword Casting City is bright, and today is a sunny day. Yu Jinger doesn't know martial arts, and can't compare to those who practice martial arts like them. It's just suffering.

Hearing what Yan Qingzhi said, Yu Jinger's expression was very firm.

"Sister, you'll be in that ring for a while, I'll find a tea room to sit down below, and I won't cause you any trouble!"

Yan Qingzhi persuaded two more sentences.

"I'm quite confident in myself, I don't need others to cheer me on, and the sun is shining today..."

Hearing what Yan Qingzhi said, Yu Jinger's head dropped instantly, she silently looked at her toes, and protested silently.

Yan Qingzhi is a little out of temper, and it can't be said that there is a lot of excitement and people will not see it!She turned her eyes, looked at Mei Heng, then looked at Guan Shao, and when she turned to look at Mei Heng, Guan Shao suddenly spoke.

"Don't worry! I'll take care of Miss Gu Yu later."

Mei Heng raised his eyes to look at Guan Shao, there was no change in the expression on his face, he smiled and threw off the fan to cover his face.

When the few people were about to squeeze back in again, Meng Yushang, who had just walked a few steps, suddenly turned around and came back.

"Wait! I'm going to see it too!"

When she left, it seemed like someone wanted to keep her, and when she came back, it seemed like someone wanted to drive her away.
