Chapter Twenty-Eight: You Cheat
I was so angry that I couldn't speak, and I wanted to reason with the man in black. And the woman took my hand, shook her head and said, "Don't go against him, you should have seen that this is clearly aimed at us." ”
I gritted my teeth, but I had to give up on the theory. I looked at the woman and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, they targeted me in the first place." If you didn't speak for me, this wouldn't have happened. ”
"No matter where you are, you will be targeted, with or without you...... the woman said nonchalantly, "I am Dongfang Yanyue, and this one next to me is Dongfang Qingyun." ”
I nodded and said, "I'm Jiang Cheng." ”
This is the first time I've seen someone with a compound surname, and I always thought that compound surnames would always exist only in TV dramas.
The man named Dongfang Qingyun glanced at me very casually, and said coldly: "You don't need to tell him too much, is it possible that you still want to pull him into the gang?" ”
"So what's the matter...... Dongfang Yanyue smiled, "Anyway, we don't get treated, and he's just like us." are also fallen people at the end of the world, why don't they take care of each other? ”
Dongfang Qingyun said very casually: "It's up to you." ”
Dongfang Yanyue smiled, and then said to me: "Jiang Cheng, how about we team up together?" In this soldier assessment, it is better to have multiple partners. ”
I nodded hurriedly and said, "That's what I thought at first, but unfortunately no one wants to team up with me." ”
She smiled softly, and at this time the man in black was calling us to assemble, let us take all the luggage, and go to listen to the leader's speech. I hurriedly went back to the car and brought my own backpack, although I didn't get the supplies, but I had a lot of food in my own backpack, as well as the Taoist talisman that Cao Da gave me.
We followed the man in black through the wilderness, and after rounding a forest, we found a large lake in front of us. In the middle of the lake was a very large island, and there was my boat on the shore of the lake, which carried us all there.
This time it is equivalent to a real isolation from the world.
When we all reached the other side of the river, the man in black first asked everyone to gather, then pointed to the inside and said, "In the middle of this island, there is a hill. You should see, there's a villa on that hill. As a Taoist priest, you need to have good survival ability and mobility in the wild. Not every ghost stays in the house, and most of the treasures are found in nature. Now, your first round begins. Only the first 100 contestants who arrive at the villa will be able to move on to the next round. You can stop your opponents, life and death, and we will not interfere. So...... Begin! ”
The words of the man in black made us all feel incredulous, we didn't expect the first round of the competition to start so quickly, almost without any warning. At this time, Dongfang Qingyun was the fastest to react, he pulled me and Dongfang Yanyue, and said coldly: "Quick!" ”
Only then did we react, and hurriedly followed Dongfang Qingyun into the woods.
The Taoist priests were anxiously rushing into the woods, but there were thorns here, and the road was very difficult to walk, so everyone's speed was a little slow.
I grew up in the mountains, and this kind of place is not difficult for me at all. I used the Demon Slayer Blood Shadow Knife to quickly chop through the weeds in front of me, and ran in front with ease. But Dongfang Qingyun's speed was also very fast, he turned his head to look at me, and there was a hint of appreciation in his eyes that originally looked down on me.
What impressed me the most was Dongfang Yanyue, because she was the most brilliant person.
Dongfang Yanyue's luggage only had a knife, but her knife was terrifyingly long, almost more than two meters long. It was no easy task to carry such a knife through the woods, but she avoided all obstacles gracefully, and her speed was only slightly slower than me and Dongfang Qingyun.
That way, we can definitely get the top three in the first round!
"Stop."
At this moment, Dongfang Qingyun suddenly screamed, and Dongfang Yanyue and I both subconsciously stopped, looking at Dongfang Qingyun suspiciously.
He stretched out his hand and pointed ahead, but neither Dongfang Yanyue nor I saw anything.
"Pretend to rest first,......" Dongfang Qingyun said in a deep voice, "Don't let others see it." ”
We said hello and then found a rock to sit down and rest. A few people behind were also quite fast, and they quickly followed. I turned my head and saw that it was Han Dongkai and his group, and it turned out that this group of Wang Lung's dog legs also came to compete. But I didn't even notice them just now, it looks like they were on another bus.
"Jiang Cheng, are you going to stop here......" Han Dongkai sneered, "Garbage is garbage, I think you will definitely die this time, let's go." ”
He shouted to a few people around him, and hurried forward again in high spirits. But just two steps away from me, Han Dongkai suddenly put his hand on the hilt of the knife, he quickly pulled out the long knife, and gave me a return pistol!
Damn it!
I panicked and raised the Ghost Slayer Blood Shadow Knife to resist, but because Han Dongkai's sneak attack was too sudden, I also lost my balance when I resisted and fell towards the back of the stone. Han Dongkai was suddenly overjoyed, and hurriedly said, "Kill him quickly!" ”
As his words fell, they all pulled out their weapons and rushed towards me. I secretly complained in my heart, I had expected that Han Dongkai would definitely deal with me, but I didn't expect him to kill me in the first round!
"Don't move."
At this moment, a flash of sword light suddenly flashed. I didn't even see the light of the knife, but I saw that a long knife was already blocking me, just in time to stop the people.
So fast!
I turned my head to look and found that Dongfang Yanyue had already drawn her knife. The people present didn't expect Dongfang Yanyue's knife speed to be so fast, and she said coldly at this time: "Jiang Cheng is my teammate, if you want to touch him, then don't blame me for making a move." ”
These people all swallowed their saliva, looking at Dongfang Yanyue a little stupidly. Han Dongkai saw that the sneak attack failed, he gritted his teeth and said, "Your luck is quite good, there are people who are willing to help." I remember you two. Remember, too, that you are working against the righteous faction! ”
"If you are the headquarters of the Zhengyi faction, then I will think about it......" Dongfang Yanyue slowly put away her knife and sneered, "But you are a branch faction, and you are not qualified to say such things." ”
Han Dongkai's face changed, then he snorted coldly and led the people away.
I took a breath and said thank you to Dongfang Yanyue. She shook her head and threw me a gentle smile.
At this moment, Dongfang Qingyun suddenly said softly: "It's here." ”
Well?
What's coming?
"Roar!"
At this moment, in the jungle to the right of Han Dongkai's group, a roar suddenly sounded. I only saw a black afterimage appear, directly on the body of a person!
The man screamed in fear, and that's when we saw the afterimage. I couldn't help but widen my eyes because it was a zombie!
It bit the man's neck and suddenly and quickly pulled him into the gloomy jungle. Han Dongkai and the others turned pale with fright, and they didn't know what to do for a while.
In this forest...... There are zombies!
"Alright, let's go."
At this time, Dongfang Qingyun stood up and said coldly to me and Dongfang Yanyue, I nodded woodenly, and hurriedly followed behind Dongfang Qingyun in fear.
Han Dongkai and the others also reacted, and hurriedly screamed and began to flee. But they were not as fast as us at all, and even a few of them fell to the ground and were embarrassed.
"It was really dangerous...... "I muttered as I thought back to the zombie eating man, "thanks to you, otherwise I guess it would have been one of the three of us." ”
Dongfang Qingyun said flatly: "Oh." ”
This person's attitude is very cold, which makes me a little uncomfortable. But considering that everyone's personality is different, I don't care about it.
Dongfang Qingyun seems to have a pair of eyes that can perceive danger, and whenever he feels danger, he will take us to a different path. Along the way, I didn't encounter any more dangers.
I'm secretly glad I found two great teammates.
With their help, we were among the first to come to the villa. There were decent people at the door of this villa, and when they saw the three of us coming, they immediately frowned and said, "Who are you?" ”
I hurriedly explained, "We are the ones who participated in the Dao Soldier Assessment. ”
"It's ...... so fast," the man exclaimed, "it's a record-break, you're so strong." ”
I was very embarrassed to hear it, because the main credit for being able to come over so quickly was because of Dongfang Qingyun, and I just followed it.
He recorded the time, then whispered, "Let's go, I'll take you inside." ”
With that, he pushed open the door of the villa, and there was an empty hall in between. And in this hall, there are two people sitting playing chess. I was suddenly shocked, because one of them turned out to be Wang Youyu!
"Two elders, there are already contestants here." The man said respectfully.
Wang Youyu hadn't noticed me at this time, and was still concentrating on playing chess. Hearing the guard's words, he turned his head in shock: "So fast...... It's you!? ”
I instinctively felt that the situation was not good, and sure enough, Wang Youyu slapped the table heavily and shouted angrily: "What a bold man, he dares to cheat!" ”
"Oh?"
The old man who was playing chess with Wang Youyu turned to look at us, frowned, and said, "Why do you say that these people are cheating?" ”
Wang Youyu said respectfully: "Uncle Shi, how long has it been since the first round of the competition started?" The fastest record in history was two and a half hours, but it took the three men an hour and a half to get here. Don't...... Isn't that cheating? ”
"Well, maybe it's because they're talented...... old man laughed, "You should admire young people who are capable, and you can't say that they cheat as soon as you open your mouth." ”
Wang Youyu snorted coldly: "I suspect that these three people have already bribed the personnel and secretly learned about the location and content of the exam, so they entered the island in advance." I'll look into this, and if it's true, you won't be able to eat and walk around. ”
I gritted my teeth and wanted to be mad with this Wang Youyu, but Dongfang Yanyue held me back.
The three of us randomly found a disciple's seat and sat down to rest, and when people came one after another, by the time the hundredth contestant came in, four hours had passed.
After everyone had gathered, Wang Youyu left the chessboard. He pointed at the three of us and asked the man in black, "Did these three come here in our car and boat?" ”
"Huh?" The man in black was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and said, "No." ”
"You!"
My eyes widened, and I stood up and shouted angrily, "You want to slander me again!? ”
"Quiet!"
Wang Youyu stopped me, and then asked everyone, "Have you seen these three people in the car and on the boat?" ”
The disciples of the Zhengyi faction all shook their heads quickly, and the other disciples were stunned for a moment, and immediately understood the meaning, and they also said no.
I clenched my fists in anger, and my eyes cracked. And Wang Youyu first smiled proudly, then pretended to be angry, and shouted angrily at me: "Good for you three cheating little animals! I don't know those two disciples, so I'm not qualified to say anything. But Jiang Cheng, as my guardian, you know the law and break the law, and the crime will be added to the first! Come on, break Jiang Cheng's two legs, and drag him out to feed the zombies! ”
