After everyone returned to the stronghold, Xiao Zhengyang discovered that the people from the City Lord's Mansion had also appeared in the small village-like stronghold, and seemed to have a very happy conversation with Xiao Yunyi, which made Xiao Zhengyang very surprised.
As the current Patriarch of the Xiao family, Xiao Yunyi certainly had to preside over the results of this animal hunting competition. After a series of scenes, he began to count everyone's trophies, that is, various beast materials, and even precious beast pills.
"Xiao Hu, a fifth-level monster beast pill, and a black mane pig."
"Xiao Shuangfei, three pieces of level four beast skins..."
"Xiao Chenxin, a fifth-level monster beast pill, a seventh-level monster red-eyed red deer, and a diamond mountain iron armor..."
"Xiao Hongran, one sixth-level monster beast pill, two fifth-level monster beast pill, one seventh-level monster blood lion and leopard, and one sixth-level monster white spotted tiger..."
The Xiao family was responsible for counting the statistics personnel. While counting the trophies, they shouted the results of each contestant so that all the Xiao family members could hear it.
When reporting Xiao Chenxin's results, Xiao Yunyi's face showed joy, and he smiled and talked happily with Tian Wenbin, the younger brother of the city lord next to him.
After reporting Xiao Hongran's results, even the other senior members of the Xiao family all smiled and nodded, especially when they heard that there was a seventh-level blood lion and leopard among Xiao Hongran's spoils, they all congratulated Xiao Yunyi.
As for the person concerned, Xiao Hongran, seeing his father's approving gaze, he was even more airy. Turning his head to look at Xiao Zhengyang's gaze, he was even more unbelievable and proud, regardless of the strange gaze of some guards.
Xiao Zheng** didn't hand in his beast pill at first, so until the end, the personnel responsible for counting the statistics did not report his results. This surprised the guards who participated in the competition, and even a little regrettable. After all, many guards knew what was going on with that blood lion and leopard.
The senior officials of the Xiao family even saw that Xiao Zhengyang was left alone, standing on the side with no grades. He didn't know what to think, but his face had long since disappeared, the kind of joy he had when he reported Xiao Hongran's grades just now.
"Master Zhengyang, have you forgotten to hand over the spoils?" one of the guards kindly reminded.
But before Xiao Zhengyang could reply, Xiao Hongran on one side spoke first: "I don't see that I have forgotten it. It is because some people patronize the sunset forest and make friends with girls who don't know where they are from, and forget about business."
Xiao Hongran's yin and yang words caused a burst of laughter among the young people, and at the same time made more people feel surprised. The seniors of the Xiao family looked at Xiao Zhengyang one after another, as if waiting for his explanation.
Xiao Chenxin was talking with people around him excitedly about Xiao Zhengyang and Yun Mengrou, but the content was entirely her own imagination. Xiao Zhengyang sneered when she heard these words and did not refute, and then came to take charge of the count. Of the staff.
Only took out a beast pill, and said: "I hunted a beast, but I only took the beast. I didn't ask for those corpses, because I knew that the corpse of the beast would be picked up for me. And he will brazenly say that he hunted it himself."
The person in charge of counting, after taking the beast pill, took a closer look, his face suddenly changed, and he didn't know whether he should call out again, because the beast pill in his hand was the beast pill of the seven-level beast, blood, lion and leopard.
Everyone knows that if the blood lion and leopard were really killed by Xiao Hongran, he would definitely take the beast pill first, and among Xiao Hongran’s trophies just now, there was no blood lion and leopard beast pill, only the corpse of the blood lion and leopard. Here, as long as the counting staff shouted out now, the beast pill Xiao Zhengyang took out was a blood lion and leopard pill. Needless to say, he knew what was going on.
"What's the matter? Don't you know that beast pill?" Xiao Yuntian, as a father, certainly believed in his son, and immediately shouted to him when he saw the performance of the inventory staff.
The silence of the staff in the count caused the silence on the scene, which attracted the attention of everyone in the Xiao family, not to mention the people who wanted to see Xiao Zhengyang’s jokes, but some shrewd people were already puzzled after hearing what Xiao Zhengyang said just now. .
Although Xiao Hongran was worried in his heart, he never believed that the blood lion and leopard were killed by Xiao Zhengyang, so he was not afraid on the surface, but his sister Xiao Chenxin saw that Xiao Zhengyang gave Yun the red-eyed red deer's beast pill. Although Meng Rou was a little nervous in her heart, she also resisted worry, and even showed a look of disdain towards Xiao Zhengyang on her face.
"Here, this beast pill..." The inventory staff looked at Xiao Yuntian, then at Xiao Yunyi, and at the last gritted teeth, only the level of the beast pill was reported: "Xiao Zhengyang, a seventh-level middle-level monster beast pill."
When Xiao Zhengyang heard the count of personnel, he didn't point out what the beast pill of the monster beast was. He knew in his heart that this person must be Xiao Yunyi's person, but he was not afraid. Anyway, he was in front of everyone and he gave the beast pill. His, he can't make a fake change under everyone's eyes.
"Hmph, what's so great, it must be the beast pill that you got when you met a dying monster with good luck." Xiao Chenxin heard the level and knew that it was not a red-eyed red deer pill, and said leisurely in the crowd. .
"Oh! It turned out to be a seventh-level medium-level monster beast pill. It is not easy to kill a seventh-level medium-level monster beast. Zhengyang, you can tell everyone about the seventh-level medium-level monster beast you killed. , What kind of monster beast is it, is it hurt first?"
What a shrewd person Xiao Yuntian is, he has long seen that there must be a problem. Seeing that the inventory staff did not tell the specific situation of the monster, and hearing Xiao Chenxin's jealous words, he quickly let Xiao Zhengyang explain the situation himself.
Xiao Yuntian directly asked his son Xiao Zhengyang to introduce how to kill a seven-level medium monster beast, which directly aroused everyone's interest.
After all, they all know that the seven-level middle-level monster beasts are equivalent to the eighth level of human innate level. It is even more powerful than that when it comes to real fighting. Even after being injured, it is not that easy to kill. It's just that many people have not even heard why Xiao Yuntian. It will allow Xiao Zhengyang to tell the true purpose of the specific situation of the monster.
"Yes, my father." After Xiao Zhengyang nodded to his father, without turning around, he said something amazing: "Actually, Xiao Chenxin was right. I was indeed lucky. Before I met the monster, It has been injured, and it was still injured by our guards."
Xiao Zhengyang's words were like smashing a large rock on the surface of a calm lake, which immediately aroused everyone's discussion. Many people acted like this, and I think it was also something like that.
But they still don't know why Xiao Zhengyang said this in the first place. In fact, the purpose is very simple. It is to let everyone have a sense of identity first, and to have two guards to testify. They did not lie, one said one.
However, Xiao Zhengyang's voice changed, and then he said: "It's just that the blood lion and leopard were too fast and escaped in the hands of the guards. It took me a lot of effort to catch up and hunt them down, even for This is also a little bit injured, and even the blood lion and leopard's corpse has not had time to deal with it, only to take out the animal pill.
As soon as this was said, everyone’s faces were brilliant, with all kinds of expressions, especially those guards who knew the real situation. They seemed to be holding back for a long time, and finally they were able to let go of the entanglement in their joy, and they all showed expressions of'it is so'. Come.
Everyone is a smart person. After hearing what Xiao Zhengyang said, there was no need to explain anything. They all remembered why Xiao Zhengyang had said that someone had picked up the corpse of a monster beast. Everyone thought of it in an instant. Among Xiao Hongran’s trophies , There is a huge blood lion and leopard, but no beast pill.
In the face of everyone's gaze, Xiao Hongran originally wanted to refute a few words, but he didn't know how to refute it, so after his face changed a few times, he gradually revealed an extremely embarrassing expression.
"Huh! Hong Ran, you don't grow up, you will be fined for three months and not allowed to go out after you return. I think you will dare not mess around in the future." In the face of everyone's discussion, Xiao Yunyi acted decisively and confronted his son. Scolded.
In fact, everyone knows that this is just Xiao Yunyi's play, in order to calm down the negative effects as soon as possible, after all, there is no need to cover this kind of thing, and it can't be covered in front of all the Xiao family.
"Brother Yun Yi, you don’t have to be angry. I think it might be a misunderstanding. It is very likely that Hongran’s nephew, who didn’t know that the blood lion and leopard was killed by Zhengyang’s nephew, just thought that he was lucky and picked it up. It’s just a big deal. Furthermore, as far as I know, the Xiao family’s animal hunting competition is not forbidden to do so.” The city lord’s younger brother Tian Wenbin said to Xiao Yunyi and other senior officials of the Xiao family with a smile.
I don’t know if Tian Wenbin intentionally, or if he really said these words in a roundabout way. Anyway, as soon as his words came out, the senior management of the Xiao family felt a little unhappy. After all, this animal hunting game was a rule uploaded by Xiao Jiazu. Things still can't move at will, let alone you Tian Wenbin is just an outsider.
As for the person involved, Xiao Zhengyang, at this moment, didn't pay much attention to how the senior management handled this matter, or he didn't have the time to pay attention to it, because he saw a person who made him angry and remembered.
"It's him!"
Xiao Zhengyang didn't pay attention at first, but when he looked at Xiao Yunyi just now, he casually swept away, only to find that the man standing behind the town lord's brother was actually the black shirt who attacked and assassinated him that night, but was stabbed in the palm of his hand. people.
Because the person was not careful just now, and Xiao Zhengyang discovered his palm. The injury caused by the wind and thunder gun was not intact, and Xiao Zhengyang could tell it at a glance.
It's just that Xiao Zhengyang didn't know whether this person belonged to the Black Meteorite Mountain or the City Lord's Mansion. Why did he dare to appear in the Xiao family or even in front of Xiao Zhengyang after failing once.
Perhaps it was because he felt Xiao Zhengyang's gaze. The man in black who had attacked in the middle of the night turned his head and looked at Xiao Zhengyang, but after the moment his eyes met each other, he instantly retracted his gaze and lowered his head slightly, no longer looking at Xiao Zhengyang.
"In this animal hunting competition, Xiao Zhengyang won the first place. I hope everyone will follow him as an example!"
At this moment, Xiao Yunyi also announced the champion of this animal hunting competition, but this time there was no longer a long discussion, just a few words of encouragement and it ended hastily.
