Jiang Luo leaned back, folded his arms and looked at Qi Ye, "You said this before the second round. 21"
Qi Ye's expression froze, Jun's face couldn't hang, "But my third pass will definitely be first."
"In the third round, there is no prompt for the top three," Qi Ye said earnestly, "We are at the same starting point, Jiang Luo, I will not lose to you."
Jiang Luo smiled and said, "But I also want to be number one."
When Qi Ye heard this sentence, he smiled with satisfaction, "Are you finally going to be serious?"
In the front row, Lu Yi turned his head and asked curiously, "Qi Ye, did you transfer here specifically for Jiang Luo?"
An uneasy flashed across Qi Ye's face, "I just want to experience what it's like to go to school."
Jiang Luo raised his eyebrows, "Have you never been to school before?"
"I went to an ordinary university, not a major in natural science and social studies," Qi Ye looked at Jiang Luo's face, his eyes wandering unconsciously, "I used to learn this knowledge at home."
Lu You was overjoyed, "So, if you say that, you might be the last one?"
"How is that possible," Ye Xun said with a poisonous tongue, "Lu Yi, Qi Ye are better than you."
Lu Youyi: "But my ranking in these two levels is above Qi Ye."
Qi Ye: "..."
He took a deep breath and felt aggrieved, but he couldn't refute it, because what Lu Yi said was the truth.
Wen Renlian smiled and said, "Let's have a meal together tonight."
After class ended at 6:00 pm, the group went to the restaurant for dinner. Wen Renlian and Jiang Luo walked at the end, Wen Renlian whispered, "Qi Ye is well protected by the Qi family."
Jiang Luo nodded, "Although he looks impatient, he is quite simple."
"The talent is also very good," Wen Renlian glanced at Qi Ye in front of him and smiled, "He also looks handsome."
They were passing a basketball court, and a basketball flew towards them, smashing straight towards Jiang Luo. Qi Ye took two steps back to catch the basketball in time, frowned, and scolded loudly, "Do you not look at people while playing?"
He kicked the basketball back and went straight to the other end of the basketball court.
After seeing the basketball is far away, Qi Ye turned his head and glanced at Jiang Luo, "Are you alright."
Jiang Luo laughed, "Basketball didn't touch me."
Wen Renlian's eyes swept over them, and his smile deepened. He took two quick steps to Zhuo Zhongqiu's side, "What do you think of Qi Ye?"
Zhuo Zhongqiu glanced back and said critically, "It's alright, but I don't have a good temper."
Wen Ren said in a hurry: "Then consider him as an alternative."
As the object of Jiang Luo's new romance, Qi Ye is quite qualified.
But if you take Qiye and Chi Youbi, there is still a gap. They were not sure whether Jiang Luo would like someone like Qi Ye, after all, Chi You was the representative of a gentle gentleman.
During the meal, Qi Ye took advantage of the situation to sit next to Jiang Luo, and as soon as he sat down, the others stared at him, and he shuddered, "Why do you look at me like that?"
Ye Xun asked, "Qi Ye, are you in a relationship?"
Qi Ye said with a stern face: "No, not interested."
"Then what kind of person do you like?" Ge Zhu was curious.
Qi Ye frowned: "Why are you asking these?"
Jiang Luo looked at Qi Ye with a sideways smile, his black hair fell on his shoulders, and he casually pointed: "You have to satisfy their curiosity before they will let you go."
Looking at Jiang Luo like this, Qi Ye suddenly remembered the scene where the black-haired youth jumped down from the tree and killed Spider-Man. ."
Seeing that Qi Ye was going to be annoyed, the others didn't ask.
After the meal, Jiang Luo parted ways with them and went to the Tianshi Mansion. Before the game, he had to live in the Tianshi Mansion.
In the Tianshi Mansion, Feng Li was not there. Jiang Luo went to the study alone to read, and when the moon was on the branches, Feng Li returned with two direct disciples.
Feng Li called Jiang Luo in front of him, took a sip of tea and asked slowly, "How many books have you read today?"
Jiang Luo answered them one by one.
Feng Li nodded and took out a talisman book from the cabinet to him, "After you read those books, take this book to practice."
Jiang Luo took a look and saw that the books are all ancient and unpopular talismans. He put it in his hands and asked, "Master, where have you been today?"
Feng Li raised his eyes and glanced at him, "Go to Chi's house."
Jiang Luo: "The Chi family?"
"The descendants of the Chi family's direct line are gone. The collateral line of the Chi family invites us to come and witness the collateral line taking over the Chi family," Feng Li said coldly, "The evil ghost that has been entangled with you is the last of the Chi family direct line. bit."
"I hurt him yesterday, but at the last moment I let him escape," Feng Li leaned back, "Chi You is indeed the strongest of the descendants of the Chi family, even if he dies, he has such strength. Compared with him, those collateral lineages will not work."
The Chi family mastered the puppet soul refining technique. The puppet soul refining technique is ancient and powerful. Such a technique is in the hands of people, and it would have made other people uneasy, for fear that one day it would become a puppet in the hands of the Chi family, and if they died, they would be refined by the Chi family. According to common sense, the Chi family should have been besieged by everyone until the puppet soul refining technique was destroyed.
Something too powerful will only lead to disaster.
But the Chi family has been developing steadily until now, after all, there are only two reasons. First, the puppet soul refining technique is extremely difficult to master. From now on, only the direct descendants of the Chi family have been able to master this technique. The second is that although each of the Chi family's direct lineage is a genius out of ten thousand, none of them can live past the age of thirty.
When it was Chi You's turn, there was one more thing to add. Chi You has a kind and gentle personality. Although he has mastered the art of refining the soul with puppets, he seldom uses this technique. Instead, he has formed a lot of good relationships, which makes people in the metaphysics feel extremely at ease. No one thinks that Chi You will use puppet refining. Soul art does things that are not good for them and the metaphysics.
Jiang Luo listened quietly. He was powerful but couldn't live beyond his 30s. This sounded like a curse.
Jiang Luo: "Master, can the art of refining the soul of a puppet only be mastered by direct descendants?"
Feng Li: "At least until now, there is no collateral that can master it."
Jiang Luo: "Then Chi You is dead, and the direct line is broken. Will no one really master the art of puppet soul refining in the future?"
Feng Li said coldly: "But the Chi family should not be underestimated. Even if you only master one or two skills of soul refining, it is amazing."
But looking at his expression, it is obvious that he does not regard the Chi family's collateral as one thing.
Jiang Luo thought thoughtfully, "Master, what exactly is the Yuan Tianzhu?"
Feng Li glanced at him: "When you get it, you will naturally know."
"As my disciple, if you don't get the Yuan Tianzhu," Feng Li said in a calm tone, "then you don't need to come back from Xiangxi."
Jiang Luo: "…"
In order to be able to come back from Xiangxi, Jiang Luo went to the study and stayed up all night. After ten days, Jiang Luo finally finished reading the books on the bookshelf.
After reading the book, Feng Li stared at him again to practice the Talisman. During this period, Jiang Luo saw Senior Brother Qiao several times, but Senior Brother Qiao seemed to be back to normal, and Jiang Luo didn't see any trace of Chi You from him again.
A month passed in a blink of an eye, and in a blink of an eye it was time for the third round.
Early in the morning, Jiang Luo went downstairs with his schoolbag on his back. Feng Li was waiting for him in the hall. There were brushes and cinnabar on the long wooden table in the hall. Feng Li burned the incense and cleaned his hands, and said to him, "Come here."
Jiang Luo walked over.
Feng Li said, "Sit down."
After Jiang Luo sat down according to the words, Feng Li took a brush and dipped it in a bowl of clear water, and suddenly raised his hand and swung it at Jiang Luo.
Jiang Luo closed his eyes subconsciously, and Qingshui fell on him in twos and threes. Afterwards, Feng Li dipped cinnabar with a brush and stood in front of Jiang Luo.
The black-haired youth's eyelids moved, and Feng Li said, "Don't move."
Jiang Luo didn't open his eyes again.
Feng Li turned the brush in his hand and turned it upside down. The slender fingers grasped the slender black pen, and gently pulled the neckline of Jiang Luo's shirt.
The neck is exposed, the collarbone is exposed. Feng Li's light-colored eyes reflected the appearance of a black-haired youth. He lightly tapped Jiang Luo's shoulder twice, and the two folded little people jumped on Jiang Luo's shoulder and pulled him for him. Wearing Jiang Luo's clothes.
Feng Li just finished writing.
The red cinnabar coiled around Jiang Luo's neck and even his heart, forming a complex talisman, like a coiled vine. Feng Li painted without haste, and when the last stroke was completed, the golden light of the talisman flashed and disappeared from Jiang Luo's body.
Feng Li put away the brush, looked down at the young man, and said, "Okay."
Jiang Luo opened his eyes and looked at himself, but saw nothing, "Master, what did you draw?"
"A life-saving talisman," Feng Li asked his disciples to pack up and said to Jiang Luo, "The third pass is different from the first two, so be careful first."
Every word of what the judges said could be a hint, Jiang Luo took it to heart, "I see."
Feng Li nodded: "Go."
Jiang Luo packed up his clothes, picked up his backpack, left Tianshi Mansion, and went to the school to meet his classmates.
The group got on the plane and arrived in Xiangxi three hours later.
This time, it was still Mr. Wan who led the team. After Mr. Wan and the staff were handed over, Jiang Luo and his group got on the bus for another four hours.
The bus transferred to a medium-sized bus, and finally sat on the bread for another hour before reaching the destination. When they finally got off the bus, several people vomited in the group.
After they had vomited all that they should have vomited, they walked into the resting place.
The game will only start tomorrow, and they have to stay in the rest area for the night tonight, but the room prepared for them by the event team is extremely simple, like a temporary set up, and the red bricks have not yet been painted with white paint. Twenty-two futons were spread from the beginning to the end against the walls on both sides, which was a large bed.
The luggage in Lu You's hand fell to the ground, and he opened his mouth, "Let's live here?"
The staff smiled and said, "Are you happy? How lively you young people live together at night."
"Is there a place to take a bath?" Zhuo Zhongqiu asked.
The staff took them to the bathroom and toilet. The bathroom was a plastic shed with several plastic basins and foot soaking buckets. As for the bathroom, it is a traditional rural style.
The group of people couldn't say a word. After returning to the Datong shop, they resignedly found nine beds.
Zhuo Zhongqiu was a girl, and they let Zhuo Zhongqiu fall asleep against the wall. The others lined up in a row, and nine people occupied almost half of the mattress in an instant.
Jiang Luo counted the number of beds, "No, why are there only twenty-two beds."
After the second round, it was obvious that thirty people had successfully advanced.
"Eight people withdrew from the competition," the staff said regretfully. "Actually, five people ate mushrooms in Yunnan. After returning, they went to the hospital. They lied down for a month and didn't get better."
Jiang Luo and his party: "..."
Sigh.
The people from Baihua University were the first to arrive. They had been on their way all day today. They only had a Chinese meal on the plane. After getting off the car, they vomited again. I only got a box of instant noodles, a box of soda water and nine ham sausages.
Even Ge Zhu, who can endure hardship, turned pale, "The competition side is too cruel."
Jiang Luo sighed. As the only person in the group who could cook, he asked the staff for an iron pot, and asked his companions to pick up firewood and some forest vegetables, and set up an iron pot on the spot. .
Wen Renlian squatted and watched curiously, and specifically instructed Kuang Zheng, who was looking for vegetables, "Don't look for the wrong one."
Otherwise, they will miss the game completely like the five friends who ate the fungus and lay in the hospital.
Kuangzheng's family is used to living a hard life, and he knows better than Wen Renlian what the vegetables that he can eat look like. But he still nodded earnestly and helped Jiang Luo build the stove before entering the forest.
Half an hour later, Kuangzheng came back, not only bringing back a handful of vegetables, but also a long-eared rabbit whose fur had been treated.
Jiang Luo has already raised a fire, surrounded by a group of curious people. When they saw the rabbit in Kuangzheng's hand, their eyes lit up, "Roasted rabbit?"
Jiang Luo touched his chin, "Yes."
In less than ten minutes, the water in the iron pot boiled, and Jiang Luo put eighteen packs of instant noodles in it.
Probably doing this line of work will consume the body and need to eat more food to replenish energy, regardless of whether they are male or female, each of them can eat terrifyingly. On the surface, he looked at Sven, but he could kill three bowls of rice in one bite without feeling overwhelmed.
After putting the instant noodles, Jiang Luo put the two tomato slices Wen Renlian asked for from the staff into the pot, put some seasonings in an appropriate amount, and left some for roasting rabbit meat.
The vegetables were put in at the end, and between the tumbling red soup, the wavy instant noodles were sandwiched with green vegetables and ham sausages.
After a tired day, the eyes of everyone staring at the iron pan were turning red.
Lu Yi wiped his saliva and ran to borrow tableware from the staff.
Qi Ye wondered how many times, "You can still cook."
"I'm just cooking instant noodles, isn't it trivial?" Jiang Luo neatly put the rabbit on the fire to roast, and raised the corner of his lips at him, "Why, I think I'm too good, not going to compete with me for the first place. name?"
Qi Ye whispered, "I still have to grab it."
Probably because he was embarrassed to say such a thing after eating other people's food, his voice was as low as a mosquito.
Jiang Luo was amused.
The aroma of tomato instant noodles spread throughout the resting place. Teacher Wan also came to have a meal and said cheerfully: "This instant noodles, boiled and soaked are really two flavors."
After Jiang Luo said it was okay to eat, ten pairs of chopsticks quickly probed into the iron pot, and the instant noodles were reduced by half.
Jiang Luo was the first to serve a bowl of instant noodles attentively by Lu You. He swayed the noodles comfortably, and when he lowered his head and drank the tomato soup, he heard the sound of a gradually approaching luggage pulley rolling.
Jiang Luo looked up and saw a pale contestant walking slowly.
This man coughed every three steps. His facial features were straight, but his body was as thin as a sickness. There was no blood on his face. Even the hand holding the suitcase was pale and slender.
The contestants also saw them, gave them a weak smile, and walked over slowly, "Hello."
"Hello," Jiang Luo retracted his gaze and smiled kindly, "Who are you?"
The lip color was dyed with a bright red color because of the red soup.
"My name is Liao Si," Liao Si coughed in a low voice, "Are you eating?"
The man seemed to have used up all his strength to say a few words, but the look in his eyes that glanced at the iron pot from the corner of his eye conveyed his meaning implicitly and euphemistically.
Jiang Luo said politely, "Want to eat together?"
Liao Si smiled: "Thank you."
He put his luggage aside, sat slowly beside Jiang Luo, took the bowl and chopsticks that Lu Yi handed him, and gently poured a bowl of instant noodles from the iron pot.
"It's delicious," Liao Si let out a sigh of relief and whispered to Jiang Luo, "I almost killed me along the way."
He looked very sick and weak, and with his appearance, it was a success to be able to get here. Jiang Luo asked, "Where did you come from?"
Liao Si smiled embarrassedly, "I'm from Xiangxi."
Jiang Luo: "...hard work."
Liao Si said with a wry smile, "I'm not in good health, and I didn't have the hard work that you guys have come here to do, so it seems that I'm not as energetic as you are."
Jiang Luo smiled and said, "Do you know where we are from?"
Liao Si smiled slightly, "On the third round of the contestants, only Shanhai University and Baihua University will gather so many people. Besides, I watched the live video on the website, and I don't recognize other people, but I will always recognize you. This first place."
Teacher Wan suddenly said "Huh", "Your name is Liao Si, and you are from Xiangxi. Are you a descendant of the old Liao family, a corpse hunter in Xiangxi?"
A group of people looked at Liao Si instantly, Liao Si nodded calmly with a smile, "Yes."
"The descendants of the old Liao family have grown up," Mr. Wan said with emotion, "How is your father's health?"
"My father is in good health," Liao Si didn't seem to want to talk more. He looked at the rabbit and reminded slowly, "Is the rabbit ready?"
Jiang Luo looked down and saw that the rabbit had been roasted to a honey color, and layers of oil particles had slipped from the skin. It was indeed healed.
He took off the rabbit and gave it to everyone with a dagger, especially Kuangzheng a rabbit leg.
Liao Si also got a piece of tender meat, he tasted it carefully, and sighed and said it was delicious.
A pot of tomato instant noodles was completely eaten by everyone, and the sweet and sour soup was gone. Everyone rested for a while and took Liao Si back to the room.
Liao Si chose the bed next to Baihua University, on the left side of Jiang Luo.
In the jungle, the mobile phone has no signal. Fortunately, Lu You brought two decks of playing cards. While they were playing, the rest of the contestants also arrived at the scene one after another.
Twenty-two people, all of them squeezed into the Chase shop.
When there are more people, it becomes lively. As Liao Si said, most of the twenty-two contestants are from Shanhai University and Baihua University. Others are scattered, all come alone.
The competition party still had some conscience, and instead of letting them, the contestants, boil hot water by themselves, they provided hot water. After everyone washed up in the shabby environment, the judges and the staff walked into their rooms.
There are a lot of six judges and teachers, and it is Feng Li who is standing at the forefront. Feng Li's expression was light, and his body had never been stained with a trace of dust due to the bumpy road. The staff standing beside him held a tray in his hand. On the tray were yellow paper, cinnabar, black dog blood, and a stack of written talismans.
The staff said: "In view of the incident of Bai Yefeng who was possessed by evil spirits in the last game, we are now going to check the physical condition of all the contestants, and please cooperate with us."
Jiang Luo raised his eyebrows and couldn't help but smile: "The joy of surprise."
Looking at this posture, even if Chi You really hid in the crowd, he would be picked up.
Liao Si, who was sitting beside him, had his hair gently scattered on his forehead, looked at the judges and teachers who had begun to detect the contestants from the tail, and said warmly, "This is the first time I have seen six teachers appear together."
Soon, the judges came to Baihua University.
The six judges teachers have different images, but each has its own characteristics. Among them was a bald monk, who smiled and looked at Jiang Luo and the others, "These are all acquaintances of the teachers."
In the end, his eyes were fixed on Ge Zhu, who sat cross-legged with a straight back, but lowered his head and couldn't see his expression clearly.
"Ge Zhu," the bald-headed monk sighed faintly and lowered his voice, "Aren't you going to come back?"
Jiang Luo turned his head to look at Ge Zhu, the corner of Ge Zhu's mouth pursed tightly, "Master Chengde, Xiaodao has entered the door of Taoism."
Master Chengde smiled bitterly, shook his head and stopped talking.
Feng Li walked up to Jiang Luo, "Raise your hand."
Jiang Luo retracted his gaze, Yiyan raised his hand.
Beside him, Liao Si was being checked by Zhuo Zhengyu. First, the blood of the black dog is dotted between the eyebrows. If the blood of the black dog does not respond, then the talisman is used. After the talisman does not respond, then it is determined that the person is not possessed by evil spirits.
If this is not enough, the judges will also write a talisman on the students' bodies on the spot to prevent them from being invaded by evil spirits during the competition.
When Jiang Luo got better, everyone else got better too. Feng Li gave him one last look and followed the judges and teachers to the next group of people.
Liao Si looked at the incantation on the back of his hand and smiled, "The teachers are very skilled, so many incantations are drawn without any stagnation."
Jiang Luo said, "After all, it's the Six Families."
He got up and walked to Wen Renlian's side, patted Wen Renlian, "Wen Ren, which of the six is from the Chi family?"
Wen Renlian said: "The second from the left is right."
Jiang Luo looked to the second from the left and saw a middle-aged man with a serious face. He was writing a pen for a student, and there was nothing unusual on his face, but there were beads of sweat dripping out from his forehead.
"That's Chi You's clan uncle," Wen Renlian sneered for a moment, "Incompetent and inaction."
Jiang Luo smiled, "I rarely hear you say such things."
"Because what he did is disgusting," Lu Yi also snorted coldly, "A dozen years ago, someone asked him to do something, and he almost killed the family because of his carelessness, and then he shied the responsibility after the trouble. In the case of Brother Chi You, who is still young, it must be said that Brother Chi You secretly did the ritual on his behalf without his permission."
"Brother Chi You has a good temper, but he actually took the blame and was scolded for many years," Lu Yi clenched his fists, "In these years, Brother Chi You doesn't know how many times he took the blame for the Chi family's collateral. ... It was because Brother Chi You had more friends, and after the popularity got better, everyone realized that Brother Chi You had such a good temperament, and he was not someone who would do those evil things, so he returned the innocence of Brother Chi You."
Jiang Luo almost thought he heard it wrong.
Let Chi You take the blame
He almost laughed out loud, is this serious
Let Chi You bear the blame, Chi You still obediently bear it, not only did he bear the blame, but the person who made him bear the blame is still alive to this day
"What happened to the Chi family who let Chi You take the blame?" He asked enthusiastically. Although this clan uncle is still alive, others are not necessarily.
Wen Renlian said coldly, "Apart from the infamy on their backs, they are still alive and well."
Jiang Luo was taken aback.
how is this possible.
With Chi Yuna's ruthless and cruel nature, how could he be bullied without revenge
Jiang Luo frowned, feeling a vague sense of weirdness.
"The Chi family has not died over the years," he asked, "has no one in the collateral line died?"
Another voice came from behind him, "In the past few years in the Chi family, all the direct descendants have died, but none of the collateral descendants have had an accident."
Liao Si slowly sat beside Jiang Luo, smiled at Jiang Luo and said, "It's not strange if you say it's strange."
strangeness.
Strange.
According to Chi You's character, he will never let go of those who touch his bad head.
It stands to reason that the few people who dared to let Chi You take the blame should have been revenged by Chi You long ago.
Jiang Luo wanted to ask more questions, but the six judges had already checked all the students. The staff smiled and said, "Everyone go to bed early."
It was getting late, Jiang Luo stopped thinking about continuing to ask, and went back to his bed with Liao Si. Before laying down, he suddenly raised his eyes and looked at Liao Si who was slowly arranging his pillows, "How do you know about the Chi family's affairs? ?"
"Because I'm curious," Liao Si smiled implicitly, "I'm in the line of corpse hunters, and I want to see Chi You's body when I know that Chi You is dead, but I'm not healthy, so hurry up and hurry up. When we arrive at Chi's house, Chi You's funeral is over."
"I lived in Chi's house for a few days, and I learned a lot."
Jiang Luo didn't find anything suspicious, he nodded and lay back in the quilt.
The lights were turned off, the moonlight penetrated through the window, and the moonlight in the forest was extremely bright. Jiang Luo was breathing the cold night air, and drowsiness gradually came.
But when he was about to fall asleep, his scalp hurt, and he woke up from his sleep in an instant.
Turning his head to the side, it turned out that Liao Si had inadvertently pressed the end of his hair. Jiang Luo rubbed his eyebrows and said in a low voice, "Liao Si, you pressed my hair."
Liao Si raised his arm and said apologetically, "Sorry." :,,.
