Exorcism

Xiaoqiu did not repeat Xin Youtao's words to his friends, but simply said that he came to be a lobbyist and he refused. The nonsense about games and battles sounded specious and seemed to contain evil intentions. Xiaoqiu did not want to take it seriously, but he controlled Unable to control his thoughts, he began to observe his surrounding partners consciously or unconsciously.

The fool Mu Feihuang and others are indeed competing for who can be closest to Shen Hao. This position originally belonged to Mu Feihuang, but he has lost Shen Hao's favor recently and can only compete again. The competition process is enjoyable, nothing more Who takes an extra step, who says an extra word, who gives a kind pat on the back.

Even the Shen brothers have changed. In the past, the one who walked beside Xiaoqiu was always the big brother Shen Xiuming, but now it is the second good man Shen Xiuwei.

Games are indeed more than just games, but the participants often don’t realize this.

Xiaoqiu found that he had to stop appropriately. If he continued to observe like this, friendship would become utilitarian and cruel, and he himself would become another Xin Youtao.

The prince's lofty theory was not the truth. Most children still regarded the game as a game. After the small dispute in the dining room, everything returned to normal. The five Taoist disciples quickly established the most watched small group in the building, and all of its members were He is recognized as the best, but that's all. Everyone has his own circle and lives in peace. Fangfang and Xiao Qingtao have also made new friends again. Only the two brothers Pei Zihan and Pei Ziqi still have no friends. They seem to be used to it. They practice boxing and stick competition as usual, and they eat as much food as other children.

Only people like Xin Youtao can be mysterious and make simple things complicated and dark. Within a few days, Xiaoqiu forgot the prince's words and concentrated on practicing, preparing for the competition at the end of the month. He even hoped to compete with Shen Geng and others on the way to practice. Compete.

Dujiao Meng Yuanhou paid great attention to Xiaoqiu. He looked at him inquiringly at least three times a day, and occasionally gave him private advice, "Now that your ears have just opened, you must be careful and try not to use them. Once you find that your hearing is... If you have any signs of losing control, tell me immediately and I will arrange a quiet place for you to concentrate on surviving the thunderstorm."

The final stage of the opening of the ear orifice is a sudden increase in hearing, and countless sounds pour in at the same time, like thunder, so it is called "Thunder Tribulation". Meng Yuanhou usually always encourages his disciples to work hard, but in this matter, there are more Just be cautious.

"Don't leak this matter to anyone." He reminded Xiaoqiu very early, "Whether it is envy or jealousy, it will not be good for you."

Xiaoqiu kept it secret, and even Erliang Shen Xiuwei and Fangfang didn't know that he had opened his ears.

The thunder calamity has not arrived yet, but Meng Yuanhou is a little happy, "It's better to be later. When you get to Yangshen Peak, you can survive the calamity more safely. Focus on refining your body, I hope you can get those three golden souls, sooner or later you will Need a magic weapon of your own, they can be very useful.”

Xiaoqiu also wanted to win and get rewards, so he practiced bone-forging boxing and stick techniques even harder. He had once unleashed unprecedented potential on Yangshen Peak, and all he had to do during the competition was to unleash it again.

He regards Shen Geng and other five Taoist disciples as his most powerful opponents. He will carefully observe their stick skills every morning, but he can't see anything special about them. They play well, and it can be seen that they have practiced for many years, but they also That's all, it didn't show more powerful strength, especially the desperate spirit that Meng Yuanhou valued most.

However, rumors are still increasing day by day. The most exaggerated statement is that the five people have condensed their energy into elixirs. According to the custom, if you go to Yangshen Peak, you will be divided into various subjects to practice more advanced spells.

After hearing a lot, Xiaoqiu became a little vague. Once she asked Marquis Meng Yuan whether the matter was true or not, and everyone laughed after hearing it.

"You guys, you think cultivation is too simple. Only when you encounter obstacles and stagnate, will you understand that the art of defying heaven is difficult and difficult. If you give me a chance to practice again, I would rather keep practicing. At the age of twenty, it’s a pity...concentrate on practicing your stick skills. As long as you can use your full strength, you will be the winner."

There are less than ten days before the end of the month, and the competitive atmosphere in the gym is getting deeper and deeper. When I practice boxing and stick skills in Xiaoqiu night, I will no longer be alone. Even in the middle of the night, there are still a few children who refuse to come back. He sleeps in the house, and sometimes asks Xiaoqiu for advice. He doesn't mean to alienate him at all, but takes his opinions very seriously.

The Taoist disciples are not so easy to talk to. They only communicate with the chosen ones. Those lucky ones regard this as an exclusive secret and never share it with others, even good friends.

Xiaoqiu himself is still exploring, and he doesn’t have much experience that he can pass on to others, but he never hides his secrets, answers all questions, and teaches the techniques he is sure of, as well as the things he half-understands and completely understands. Then tell the truth.

In this way, not only has the popularity of the young people in Yelin Town not weakened, but it has become more popular.

Erliang Shen Xiuwei was inspired by the success of reaching the summit and was extremely eager to perform well in the competition at the end of the month. Therefore, he followed Xiaoqiu from morning to night, practicing boxing and stick together, and listened carefully to every word he said, even if Even after hearing it several times, I still refuse to ignore a word.

Fangfang and Xiao Qingtao often came over to practice boxing together, but they quickly gave up the idea of ​​fighting. Most of the time they just practiced bone-forging boxing, and then sat on the stone bench on the sidelines, or watched Xiaoqiu and the others fight. , or whispering about a book they just read.

Erliang Shen Xiuwei ignored Xiao Qingtao at first, but soon publicly expressed his dislike. Strangely, Xiao Qingtao's kind-hearted Xiaoqiu was a little scared, but he was not afraid of the rude Erliang. The two of them talked every day There's going to be an argument or two.

Five days before the competition at the end of the month, Erliang actually called out the word Xiaoqingtao in his dream, waking up Xiaoqiu, Daliang and Shen Hao in his room. After he woke up, he refused to admit it, but he saw Xiaoqing again. His attitude became much friendlier when he was young.

As the days passed, Xiaoqiu became more and more mature in exploring his potential. Although he was still not at the level of lifting a boulder in a life-and-death situation, he was already far better than the average child in the library.

There are still three days left before the competition. In the private debate over who can win the three golden souls, Xiao Qiu's opinion is slightly more optimistic than Shen Geng's.

In the early morning of the day before the competition, the stick fight was going on as usual, and the surroundings were noisy. Xin Youtao took advantage of the opportunity to block Xiaoqiu's attack, approached and whispered: "I have something to discuss with you."

Xiaoqiu used the stick in her hand to push Xin Youtao away, "There is nothing to discuss."

Xin Youtao did not give up, and used a feint to attack and get closer to Xiaoqiu. "Tomorrow is the martial arts competition. Give me some dignity and I will officially give you the dagger."

"My dagger, the one with the ruby ​​​​encrusted in it, I made a bet on the mountain last time, and even if you lost, I didn't ask for it back."

Xiaoqiu remembered that on the way to escape outside Yelin Town, he found a dagger from Xin Youtao. The two had indeed made a bet when they climbed Laozu Peak a few days ago, and Xiaoqiu had indeed failed to climb a mountain. Ten thousand stone steps, he fainted for a day and completely forgot about it.

"Go back to the mountain tomorrow and gamble again."

Xin Youtao didn't have this idea. He knew that with Mu Xingqiu's current strength, it would not be particularly difficult to climb the Ancestor Peak. "No, no, my suggestion is this: tomorrow morning you give me three moves, just three moves, let I will use my full strength, and then you can fight however you want, and you will definitely win in the end. As a thank you, I will officially give you the dagger, it is not an ordinary dagger..."

Dujiao Meng Yuanhou came over, and Xin Youtao hurriedly shut up. After that, Xiaoqiu's attacks became stronger and stronger, and he could only hide in all directions without any chance to speak.

Xiaoqiu didn't believe Xin Youtao. This prince of Xijie Kingdom was very scheming and always tried his best to instill some extremely snobbish ideas. During breakfast, he whispered Xin Youtao's suggestion of giving up three moves to his tablemates. Erliang sighed. Xiu Wei had only one reaction, "Beat him, beat him hard, and you can't return the dagger. If he can't protect himself, he can't blame others."

If these words were said by Xiao Qiu, Xiao Qingtao would never refute. She admired Xiao Qiu and was a little afraid of him. But towards Erliang Shen Xiuwei, she was always tit for tat, "What does it mean to be 'himself'?" Can't keep it? You are not robbers. The dagger belongs to Xin Youtao, so return it to him or let him go tomorrow. I don't think there is anything wrong with it."

Xiao Qingtao suddenly lowered her voice and said slightly mysteriously: "They are very strict with the people around them. They have long said that anyone who performs poorly in the competition is not qualified to be friends with them."

This was like something Shen Geng would say. Xiaoqiu snorted and understood. Xin Youtao's strength in stick skills was mediocre. If he was not allowed to use a few moves, he would not even have a chance to use the stick, let alone use any force. .

Xiaoqiu didn't take Xin Youtao's suggestion seriously, and spent the whole day practicing sticks to prepare for tomorrow's competition. Meng Yuanhou's words about "what do you think" kept tumbling in his heart, wwwｗ.c He felt that he could not lose at all To five Taoist disciples.

The day of the competition finally arrived. All the children came to the courtyard early without Zhang Lingsheng to wake them up, and took up positions with their usual sparring partners, waiting to show off the results of their hard work over the past few days.

The sticks received today were slightly different from usual ones. Although it was still dark, many people still found a small piece of yellow paper attached to one end of the stick. Someone tried to pull it, but it could not be pulled off or torn.

Xin Youtao exclaimed in a low voice, "talisman! Pangshan also has talismans!"

Marquis Meng Yuan arrived and said loudly: "These sticks will judge how hard you have used them. When you swing them hard, they will change color. They are white, black, red, green and yellow. There are five levels. Yellow is the highest, which means you use it." You can achieve at least 80% of your potential. Believe me, you can definitely show your strength better when you have an opponent than dancing alone, so find your opponent, think about the beatings you have received, and hit them hard in three rounds, one before breakfast. There will be one round in the morning and one in the afternoon. If there are still people who are equally matched, then continue the competition in the evening. "

Xiaoqiu held the stick tightly. Before she could move it, it had already turned white, similar to the color of Xin Youtao's face across from her.

"You give me three moves, or even one. In addition to sending you the dagger, I will tell you another secret." Xin Youtao said in a low voice.

"You speak first."

Xin Youtao glanced left and right, deliberately scratched the stick back and forth on the ground, and then said in a lower voice: "You have to be careful, Shen Geng is really going to come today. If I were you, I would release the water in the second round to avoid encountering him." he."
