There are many people in Tianji City today and it is very lively

Li Zhong was very busy at the front desk of Li's Restaurant. If he looked carefully, he could see that none of the people here looked like locals in their dress or speech.

Looking at the arena set up outside the door, Li Chong felt happy.

City Lord Huang specially set up the arena in front of his Li Family Restaurant this year, and his intention is naturally self-evident.

This is only one more quota than last year, and the number of cultivators from other places has doubled. If the Du family and the Shi family are completely wiped out, the remaining quota will be reduced by one point, and the flow of people will be what it is now.

times

Li Chong was thinking wildly in his mind and did not notice that Du Gang also came here with his daughter Du Juan.

The waiter who served food knew the owner of the Du family, and he enthusiastically promoted the restaurant's new dishes. Du Gang was shocked to find that in just three days, the Li family had introduced so many new dishes. He couldn't help but feel upset and ordered them casually.

I asked the waiter to order two dishes.

Du Juan asked Du Gang with a worried look: "Father, I heard that Du Di was arrested?"

"right"

Du Gang had a sullen face and said angrily: "That loser squatted for three days without finding anyone, and finally he was caught."

"He didn't turn us in, did he?"

Du Juan looked a little nervous. She was worried that the last place in the Du family would not be guaranteed because someone caught someone.

"No"

Du Gang took a sip of tea and said slowly: "His wife and children are still at Du's house, so he has never confessed."

Speaking of this, Du Gang calmed down and said to Du Juan: "Although Du Di is a collateral member, he is still a member of my Du family. He has done a lot for us over the years. Find an opportunity to go to the government to smoothen the relationship.

,Get the people out.”

After hearing this, Dujuan felt a little shocked and said "Okay", and the father and daughter stopped talking.

What happened to his father? His father, who used to be unreasonable to outsiders and the Du family, actually wants to get someone out of prison. This is the first time in these years.

Du Juan looked at her father in front of her and suddenly felt a little strange. When did her father change?

It seems that after coming out of the city lord's mansion three days ago, he has become less arrogant and cruel.

As if he noticed Du Juan's gaze, Du Gang smiled bitterly and said: "Daughter, you seem to have some trouble with the girl next to Qin Lan. Listen to what my father said, if it doesn't work, just let it go."

Although he was furious in the city lord's mansion, he calmed down and realized that he had been taking the Du family too seriously all these years.

Even if the wood is as beautiful as the forest, the wind will destroy it. Even if it is not the Li family today, there will be the Wang family and the Zhang family to replace him tomorrow.

The decision-making power on some things never belongs to the Du family

"no!"

Du Juan's expression suddenly changed. She stood up and screamed, which attracted the attention of people at the next table. Only then did she realize her gaffe and hurriedly sat back down.

"Calm down"

Du Gang frowned and said: "No one knows the news that Du Di is going to kidnap people except you and me. I have felt it since that day at the City Lord's Mansion. Qin Lan can always be one step ahead in everything.

Isn’t the opponent formidable?”

After listening to her father's words, Dujuan fell silent, but the resentment in her eyes was still strong.

She was silent not because she listened to her father's words. On the contrary, she felt that her father was old and had no energy. If she had heard that someone was bullying his daughter five years ago, he would have come to the door of the house with a knife. When would he show up?

Such a compromising stance?

Father, since you are old, your daughter should do her own thing!

Du Juan secretly made up her mind, and the poisonous dagger at her waist shone with cold light.

Boom

It was noon, and there was a sound coming from outside

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

With the sound of a gong striking, the crowd fell silent instantly

Huang Litian walked to the middle of the ring and said loudly: "There are two quotas for the Tianji Monument competition. All the monks who signed up will compete one-on-one according to the groups they were registered in. The last two people left will get the quota to participate in the real Tianji Monument.

Fight!"

"Now I announce that the competition has officially begun! Those in the first group of duels please come directly to the stage!"

Listening to Huang Litian's words, the enthusiasm of the monks who came to participate in the selection was ignited. In an instant, two figures jumped up from the crowd and jumped onto the ring.

There was no extra etiquette between the two. Spiritual energy flowed, and the figures moved closer to each other, and finally they struggled together.

The two of them were fighting back and forth, each using their own tactics. The audience cheered and some of the contestants later also commented secretly, and the discussion was lively.

Qin Lan and Ye Xiaoxiao stood in a corner next to the crowd, quietly watching the monks competing with each other on the stage. They watched for an hour. The highest cultivation level was only mid-sixth grade.

Qin Lan shook his head secretly. To be honest, he was not interested in these little troubles. If Ye Xiaoxiao hadn't forced him to come, he wouldn't have come.

Ye Xiaoxiao seemed to have recovered from the sadness of the past two days, her eyes were glowing, and she was holding a candied haws in her hand.

Suddenly, Ye Xiaoxiao felt someone tugging at the corner of her clothes again, and turned around in confusion. A little girl with braids was staring at the candied haws in her hand with a trace of saliva flowing out of the corner of her mouth.

"Do you want this?"

Ye Xiaoxiao squatted down, curved her mouth with a gentle smile, and asked softly

The little girl lowered her head, her two little hands holding each other nervously. Finally, when she saw Ye Xiaoxiao's soft smile, she hesitated and nodded.

Ye Xiaoxiao handed the candied haws to the little girl and rubbed her head. At this time, a young woman squeezed over from behind the little girl, pulled the little girl over, and said anxiously: "Oh, why are you running around like this?"

, what is that in your hand? You’re taking other people’s things randomly again!”

With that said, he was about to take the candied haws and give it back to Ye Xiaoxiao

Ye Xiaoxiao hurriedly waved her hands and said: "Sister is fine. If the child likes it, just feed it to her. Don't blame her."

With an apologetic smile on her face, the young woman thanked Ye Xiaoxiao, then looked at the little girl with an angry look and said, "You kid, why are you so greedy?"

The little girl smiled innocently, and the young woman stopped preaching. She thanked Ye Xiaoxiao again and led the child away.

Qin Lan saw this, and a knowing smile appeared on her face unconsciously.

The folk customs in Tianji City are simple and simple. Even if your child eats something given by a stranger, usually nothing bad will happen.

Qin Lan longs for such a life, where she can live easily.

Ye Xiaoxiao glanced at Qin Lan in surprise. What was this idiot laughing at? She slapped Qin Lan's arm and waved her empty hands in front of Qin Lan's eyes.

Qin Lan didn't understand Ye Xiaoxiao's meaning at first and looked at her doubtfully. It wasn't until he followed Ye Xiaoxiao's gaze and saw the candied haws stall that he felt he understood a little better.

So under Ye Xiaoxiao's gaze, Qin Lan took the first step towards the candied haws stall with stiff limbs. This was the first time he had done this kind of thing for a girl.

After a while, Qin Lan looked nervous and handed a bunch of candied haws to Ye Xiaoxiao dryly, without any unnecessary words or actions.

Ye Xiaoxiao decided not to embarrass him anymore, and took the bunch of candied haws from Qin Lan. Seeing that there seemed to be a faint blush on Qin Lan's face as she turned away, she burst out laughing, her laughter as sweet as a silver bell.

It attracted a lot of side glances from a circle of people.

It seems like this guy isn't so cold anymore

Looking at Qin Lan's side face, Ye Xiaoxiao suddenly felt like this

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

Unconsciously, the game was coming to an end, and there were only four monks left on the field.

Suddenly, Ye Xiaoxiao's eyes drifted to the stage, patted Qin Lan and said, "Qin Lan, look at that person."

Qin Lan looked over after hearing this, and saw a handsome man in white clothes standing on the side of the stage with his hands behind his back.

"Pu Painting"

The man in white clothes slightly cupped his hands and said. The man standing opposite him was dressed in coarse shorts and was clean and tidy. He had a short sword on his waist. He also nodded slightly and said:

"Lu Bu"

Lu Bu from Blue Flower House!?

Someone below exclaimed, recognizing the person on the field.

Qinghua Building is the most famous employment group in the Great Xia Dynasty. It takes in almost all casual cultivators. As long as you have money and successfully publish a mission, you don't have to worry about no one taking it.

And Lu Bu is a famous mercenary in Qinghua Tower. His mission completion rate is as high as 70%. The stainless steel dagger in his hand is like the sting of a poisonous bee within three inches, light and difficult to control.

Seeing that both sides were ready, the referee on the field waved one hand and shouted: "The game begins!"

Lu Bu's spiritual power burst out, he pulled out his dagger and struck towards Pu Hua.

Pu Hua stepped back slightly, dodging the dagger by an inch, then raised his leg and kicked Lu Bu in the abdomen.

This kick was neither light nor heavy. I couldn't tell what kind of move it was, and it didn't use spiritual power. It was just the simplest kick, like a kick that would be used by street gangsters. It kicked Lu Bu, and Lu Bu only stepped back slightly.

Pu Hua took advantage of the force to retreat and widened the distance.

Lu Bu was stunned for a moment, and then a look of anger appeared on his face. He felt that he had been insulted, and with a strong movement of his feet, he rushed towards Pu Hua again.

"Three Shadow Sword!"
