Chapter 245 The truth close at hand
The last match of the second round started at 5 pm, with Lu Lin from Sanyi Gate facing Jia Zhengliang from Jiajia Village in the west.
An hour before the start of the competition, the two old ghosts Wang Ai and Lu Ci lost interest in the second round of screening which was about to end. It happened that Zhang Zhiwei of Tianshi Mansion needed to oversee the order of the event and Lu Jin was not there. They smelled an opportunity and sent someone to contact Zhang Chulan privately, preparing to use intimidation and inducement.
Lu Lin, who was the last to appear on stage, had his hair turning white at a speed visible to the naked eye as he walked into the arena. The reverse rebirth state he created greatly increased his physical strength, and even his five senses became more acute.
Jia Zhengliang, with red hair and a dissolute appearance, entered the venue holding a mobile phone in his left hand, mumbling with a headache:
"Hey! Mom, I'm really not interested in the village chief's daughter. I can't go back because the competition is about to start. My opponent is a man. Mom, don't ask me anymore. We'll talk next time."
After turning off his cell phone and putting it in his trouser pocket, Jia Zhengliang looked at the pretty boy opposite him with particular vigilance. Several flying knives were circling around him, ready to go. He was ready for a fight.
"The competition begins!" Taoist Master Rongshan on the stage shouted at the top of his voice.
The onlookers were surprised to see Lu Lin's frosty white hair.
Feng Zhenghao's face showed undisguised admiration for this disciple who came out of the secluded Xuanmen Trinity. He had watched most of their matches, and among the young heroes who participated in the Luotian Grand Ceremony this time, only Lu Lin and the unknown Gu Liang felt too powerful, almost cutting off the gap with the other young generations.
In addition, Zhang Lingyu, a disciple of Tianshi, Wang Ye of Wudang Mountain, and Zhuge Qing of Wuhou Village are all strong candidates for the championship.
Feng Zhenghao fell into deep thought, he could see through the plan set by Tianshi and Lu Jin. With Zhang Lingyu and Lu Lin as the two huge mountains pressing down on him, it was a pipe dream for other young people to win the championship. Once Zhang Chulan was lucky enough to reach the finals, no matter he concealed his strength or not, those two would pave the way for him. Now, the only one he could put his hope on was the unfathomable Gu Liang.
As long as Gu Liang can win against Lu Lin, or if he eliminates Zhang Lingyu and Zhang Chulan in advance;
From the perspective of Feng Zhenghao and the Wang and Lu families, this is the best thing that could happen. As long as they disrupt the Heavenly Master's plan to pass on the throne, they will have plenty of opportunities to target Zhang Chulan.
At the same time, the two people in the venue officially started the competition.
"call out!"
"call out!"
"call out!"
Three flying knives slashed through the air and shot towards Lu Lin.
"clang--!"
The silver-grey wind energy gathered rapidly, and a long spear was condensed out. Lu Lin swept past with the spear, easily repelling three blades that flew from tricky directions.
He learned from Cheng Zhen, so his specialty was naturally the cold weapons used in charging into battle and using guns for big swings.
"That's pretty fierce, this pretty boy."
Jia Zhengliang's face was solemn. The opponent had only made a casual attack, but he could clearly feel that the Qi layer covering the surface of the three Flying Knives was destroyed in an instant. Although he could continue to control the objects, the friction between the blades and the air made him feel a sudden blockage, which was not as smooth as before.
"We must resolve this issue quickly. If we delay, it will be troublesome."
Jia Zhengliang realized that this was not the time to play around. The small fry he encountered before were no match for the ruthless guy he encountered this time.
"go with!"
With a light rebuke, the remaining nine flying swords whizzed across the sky and surrounded Lu Lin.
"call out!"
Twelve flying knives suddenly shot towards the target but could not lock onto it. Lu Lin's speed was too terrifying and the flying knives could not catch up. Within the amplified vision range, the flying knives, which were as fast as a phantom, could be easily captured in their moving trajectories.
Lu Lin didn't even confront him. He ran with his gun, went straight for the target, and engaged in a fierce battle with Jia Zhengliang in close combat.
"!!"
The speed was dozens of meters in an instant, so fast that his nerves could hardly react. When he saw Lu Lin right in front of him, Jia Zhengliang's heart rate soared and he suddenly felt a terrible feeling of suffocation. He dodged in panic and tried to control the flying knife to defend himself.
"boom!"
Lu Lin showed mercy and swept the gun like a stick, hitting Jia Zhengliang's chest ribs. He was suddenly injured, his eyes widened, and he couldn't stop the blood foam from rising in his throat. He spit out blood and fell several feet away like a kite with a broken string.
At the same time, the twelve immortal-slaying flying knives showed no signs of stopping, locking onto Lu Lin's vital points to penetrate and cut.
Even though his Qi-transformed body could ignore attacks from sharp weapons, Lu Lin still dodged sideways, not wanting to be exposed too early in front of the eyes of the audience staring at him.
"you you!!"
Jia Zhengliang covered his abdomen and grimaced in pain. It was the first time for him to suffer such a big loss. He became completely depressed and had difficulty standing up again.
Blood rushed to his brain. He gritted his teeth and persisted, still trying to stand up, but the intense pain made his legs and feet weak.
The twelve immortal-slaying flying knives lost control of their masters and fell to the ground.
"Do you want to continue?"
Lu Lin waited patiently. Since the conference was mainly for sparring, he did not continue to attack.
During the long ten seconds of agony, Jia Zhengliang gritted his teeth and tried several times, but each time ended in failure.
The whole place was silent.
The strength Lu Lin showed twice completely opened up a gap with other groups. Even in the battles between Zhuge Qing, Zhang Lingyu, Wang Ye and others, there was no such exaggerated one-move crushing, never giving any extra opportunities, and the means were powerful and just enough, just close to the point where it was impossible to fight back.
Upon seeing this, the referee immediately announced Lu Lin's advancement, and all the competitions on the first day of Luotian Dajiao came to an end.
由藏龙在他网站开设的盘口,陆琳的赔率迅速从1:7,跌到1:0.8,这远比张灵玉的1:1夸张。
Lu Linglong, who had been well prepared, took out all her pocket money for the month, even though she was not at the scene, and gave it madly to her cousin, making a fortune. After one and two rounds, she earned more than two years' pocket money.
evening.
Four people who knew everything were informed by a little Taoist boy that the Heavenly Master and Master Lu wanted to see them.
About 10 minutes later, Zhang Chulan, Feng Baobao, Xu San and Xu Si arrived at a bright Zen room.
"."
Lu Jin looked at the girl eating potato chips, then glanced at Xu San and Xu Si, as if thinking about something.
"Chu Lan, come quickly and meet your Jinzhong master. He was also a close friend of your grandfather."
Hearing this, Zhang Chulan smiled widely, knelt down gracefully, and greeted the two masters. He spoke so sweetly that the other young people in the room secretly criticized him for being shameless.
"Hey! Be good, baby."
Tian Jinzhong felt very pleased. Although the big ears didn't look very good, the boy was very handsome.
At this time.
Xu Si talked about business and asked:
"Master Tianshi, Elder Lu, I wonder why you two called us juniors here? Did you gain anything?"
"Correct."
Zhang Zhiwei did not keep the secret and replied:
"After the second round of competition today, Hu Jie from Group 16 was controlled by Quan Xing's Huo Miao Gen, and started hunting Deng Youfu who was alone. Later, he was severely injured by a snake fairy invited by the target, and is still being treated."
"Are Shen Chong and the others here already?" Xu San and Xu Si realized the seriousness of the matter.
Dou Mei, the intestinal poison; Xia He, the bone scraper; Shen Chong, the root of evil; Gao Ning, the thunder and smoke cannon;
Even among a bunch of lunatics who disregard social order and trample on it at will, the Four Madmen are extremely dangerous and often act together.
Especially in the company's filing, Quan Xing also has a thousand-faced man who is good at disguise - Yu Huadu. It is very likely that this group of monsters have been transformed by him and have secretly sneaked into the Tianshi Mansion, lurking among the audience and contestants.
"Master, I will apply for additional manpower later."
Xu Si thought of contacting colleagues in the East China region for help.
Originally, Longhu Mountain was within the jurisdiction of East China, so the company should have arranged for Lao Dou to stabilize the order of this conference. Taking into account that Tianshi Mansion might want to protect Zhang Chulan to become the next Tianshi, Xu Si took the initiative to take responsibility for the guarding.
The trouble was expected. Xu Si now began to think about the subsequent arrangements. The monsters might attack the mountain at any time and cause casualties. He could not breathe a sigh of relief until at least the Luotian Dajiao was over.
"Okay, thank you for your help, Mr. Xu Si." Zhang Zhiwei expressed his gratitude.
"Okay, then we'll take our leave first. If there's anything urgent later, please contact me immediately."
Xu Si was about to leave in a hurry. He felt that the situation was urgent. If Quan Xing really caused trouble in Longhu Mountain, he would be severely punished for dereliction of duty.
His companions turned around and were about to leave, but Zhang Chulan stood there in a daze, a little hesitant, remembering the ridicule of the two old men Wang and Lu not long ago.
"Your grandfather was the culprit of the Jiashen Rebellion."
"He was the one who caused all the trouble and killed so many people."
"Zhang Chulan, do you think those who survived would want to take off your head?"
"Don't blame me for not reminding you. Hand over the source of your Qi body, and my Wang family will promise you a life of luxury for the rest of your life. Otherwise, hehe..."
Even though Xu San and Xu Si came to save him at the last moment, the two old men's words planted a demon in his heart. He could not accept that the disaster was caused by his grandfather.
The moment of distraction seemed like a long time ago, and cold sweat wet my back.
Zhang Chulan knelt down decisively again and repeated the previous conversation with Wang Ai and Lu Ci. With an unwilling and helpless look in his eyes, he asked the two old men for confirmation:
"Master! Please tell me!"
"Is what they said really true? Boom boom boom!"
After he finished speaking, he kowtowed several times to show his determination to seek knowledge.
Zhang Zhiwei fell silent.
He didn't know where to start. If he knew too much about some things, it would harm this little guy. But now that the Wang family and the Lu family have contacted Zhang Chulan, the truth will come out one day.
Seeing that his senior brother seemed to be considering it, Tian Jinzhong remained silent without giving his permission.
"Ugh"
After a long while, Zhang Zhiwei made a decision, looked around at the young people in the room, and said apologetically:
"Children, Chu Lan and I are chatting about family matters. Please move aside for a moment, please forgive me."
