Chapter 1175 Magic and Charm (4)
Hua Tiannu had just stepped off the stage, and when she heard the cheers from the entire Wangchun column, she gritted her teeth, knowing that there was no way she could recover from this situation. But why was it like this?
After she got off the stage, she did not rush to change clothes. Instead, she stood in a corner and looked at Ming Yuanyuan on the stage seriously. A maid quietly reminded: "Miss, we will be on stage in a while, we have to hurry up."
Time to change clothes."
Hua Tiannu waved her hand gently and still looked at Ming Yuanyuan seriously.
In fact, when Ming Yuanyuan sang the first song, she had a vague feeling that something was not right. At this time, she listened carefully and finally confirmed her opinion: Ming Yuanyuan's singing skills had not been substantially improved.
But I don’t know why, but there seems to be a kind of magic in her singing that can move people. Therefore, the atmosphere at the scene is particularly warm. Even if she is a woman, she can’t help but want to blend into the atmosphere of this singing.
She couldn't figure out the reason: could it be some kind of "power" of the Life Soul Warrior? But Ming Yuanyuan was not a Life Soul Warrior at all.
"Alas" she sighed secretly, knowing that she had lost this game, but there were still two games left, and she still had a chance to win. Although she didn't win like she did in the previous royal cities, she could still maintain her undefeated reputation.
She turned around and left, then went on stage again and sang two songs. Although they were still above the level, Song Zheng could tell that there was no fighting spirit in Huatiannu's singing, and Ming Yuanyuan overwhelmed her with just two songs.
Defeated.
This made Song Zheng breathe a sigh of relief. He originally thought he would be a powerful opponent, but now it seems that he is nothing more than that. He does not have a steely will at all.
Before dinner, today's vote results were tallied up. Ming Yuanyuan won 3,400 out of the 4,800 votes in the Wangchun Column! He won the singing battle with an overwhelming advantage.
Moreover, she received a full 2,000 more votes than Hua Tiannu. This was a huge gap. Hua Tiannu was under great pressure in the next two days. She needed to make up for the gap of these 2,000 votes and overtake to win.
On the way back, Hua Tiannu and Qiao Benjie sat in the carriage without saying a word. Even the guard soldiers outside the carriage could feel the coldness and solemnity seeping out of the carriage.
After a long time, Qiao Benji gritted his teeth and asked, "How could this be?"
Hua Tiannu glared at him fiercely: "You ask me? All the investigations beforehand were all done by you. You provided me with all the information about Ming Yuanyuan, but among all the information, she is definitely not that powerful!"
Qiao Benjie was at a loss, and he was also wondering: Why did Ming Yuanyuan suddenly turn into a phoenix?
No matter how he thought about it, he would never associate this change with Song Zheng.
Huatiannu told what she had observed today, Qiao Benjie lowered his head and frowned: "Singing has magic power?" At first hearing, it seemed like nonsense, but when Qiao Benjie recalled it, he realized that Yuanyuan
The mandarin duck started to sing. Even though he and her were enemies, he seemed to be unable to help but immerse himself in the joy...
"As expected!" Qiao Benji punched the cushion hard: "She is a Soul Warrior!"
In this world, only the special ability of the Life Soul Warrior can explain this "magic power". But after figuring this out, Qiao Benjie suddenly became excited. As long as he found the reason, he could deal with it.
He thought about it for a moment, and then there was a sinister look on his face: "Since you are a Soul Warrior, don't blame me for being ruthless!"
Huatiannu reminded him: "Don't go too far. If something happens to Ming Yuanyuan, it will greatly damage our reputation."
Qiao Benjie chuckled: "Don't worry, I won't give anyone any clues about what I do." He took out a wooden box from his arms and opened it. There were three horizontal, three vertical and nine squares inside, and each box contained
Holding a jade bottle that was only the size of a fingertip, he took one out of it, looking a little bit pained: "The extremely precious flea in the sky, used on her Ming Yuanyuan, is her creation!"
"This kind of spiritual beast is very rare. It is only the size of a needle nose, and its whole body is transparent and can hardly be noticed. Once it parasitizes in the body of a life soul warrior, it will continue to eat his spiritual energy, and eventually even the life soul will be eaten.
, let the Life Soul Warrior become an ordinary person without any damage!"
Hua Tiannu had never heard of this kind of insidious thing before. A smile appeared on her face, but she was secretly wary in her heart. She and Qiao were cooperating this time. There was no guarantee that this guy wouldn't secretly do something to control him.
You must be careful in the future.
Qiao Benjie shook the jade bottle in his hand: "I will arrange this matter."
Huatiannu reminded him: "Ming Yuanyuan now lives with Song Zheng, and his son can kill Meng Taoxing. Don't make things worse."
"Don't worry, I have my own arrangements."
…
Xuan Zhigu did not leave Baizhan City immediately after the failure.
This failure dealt an extremely heavy blow to him. Ever since he came into contact with the art of weapons, he has not had a day off and has been intoxicated in it almost every moment.
But in the past few days, he has been completely decadent, doing nothing, thinking nothing, not eating or drinking. His followers are extremely anxious when they see Xuan Zhigu getting haggard, but no matter who persuades Xuan Zhi,
Everyone has turned a deaf ear to it.
As for these followers, only five or six of them are still with him.
When he came to Baizhan City, there were dozens of followers around him, and there were three people who were similar to "apprentices". After a period of testing, he might choose a true disciple among them.
Now, only one of the three apprentices is left.
One failure and the tree fell and the hozen scattered.
Qiao Benjie suddenly appeared at Xuan Zhigu's residence during dinner. This was the first time Qiao Benjie came to visit Xuan Zhigu after his failure.
However, several followers and Shangguan Li, the only apprentice who had stayed with Xuan Zhigu, blocked the door with hatred in their eyes, not wanting him to enter.
Shangguan Li asked coldly: "Why are you here, Mr. Qiao? I have no use value for you anymore."
They vented their anger on Qiao Benjie. If it weren't for Qiao Benjie inviting the master to Baizhan City, how could there have been such a disastrous defeat?
Qiao Benjie said frankly: "I know you blame me, and I also know that it was unkind for me not to show up before. But that's because I know that I need to give Master Xuan some time. Even when I came, what did he say?
I couldn’t listen to it at all.”
"But in the past few days, Master Xuan should have almost figured it out. I'm here to persuade her."
Shangguan Li was doubtful, so Qiao Benjie said, "Let me try. I'm somewhat sure that I can get the master back on his feet."
Shangguan Li hesitated to get out of the way, and Qiao Benjie walked in proudly. His first words were a wake-up call: "Xuan Zhigu, this failure is actually an opportunity. What else do you have to hesitate? Are you still there?"
Not as good as Qiu Changtian and Du Twelve?"
Shangguan Li and others were confused when they heard this, but Xuan Zhigu, who was looking depressed, rolled his sluggish eyes, his Adam's apple moved, and said dryly: "You... are right."
Qiao Ben nodded, turned around and left.
Shangguan Li and others were even more confused: What do you mean?
In the room, Xuan Zhigu finally stood up and took action for the first time after his failure: "Go find some food, and prepare to bathe and change clothes for me. I want to see His Excellency Song Zheng!"
"Ah?" Shangguan Li and others suddenly understood that although they felt humiliated, they were loyal to Xuan Zhigu. If Xuan Zhigu could restore his vitality, they would not care about other things.
An hour later, Xuan Zhigu tidied up again and boarded the carriage to go to see Song Zheng. He took the riding whip from the driver and said to his followers: "You stay here, I am going to become a disciple.
You can't follow."
Shangguan Li took the riding whip from his hand and said: "Master, let them stay, I will go with you."
Xuan Zhigu looked at him, his eyes softened: "Okay."
…
When Huang Shan came in to inform Xuan Zhigu that he had come to visit, Qiu Changtian was blushing from drinking. He kept toasting to the master, but Song Zheng was too lazy to drink with him, so Qiu Changtian successfully got himself drunk.
He was happy. But under this drunkenness, there was still a sadness of letting go. He actually knew that Ming's mandarin ducks would fly high, and the imperial city was her future. He chose to plead with Song Zheng to help Ming
When he was a mandarin duck, he was actually choosing to send her flying high.
And today's victory further made his choice almost a fact.
He said angrily: "What is he doing here? It's a spoiler!"
Song Zheng also felt that he had nothing to say to Xuan Zhigu, so he waved his hand and said, "No see."
Huang Shan went out and said to Xuan Zhigu: "Please come back."
Shangguan Li frowned and stepped forward and said: "Although my master lost, his status is here. Don't bully others too much when you take the initiative to come!"
Xuan Zhigu stopped him. Although it was embarrassing for him to be rejected when he came to visit him, what he needed at this time was to show his attitude. He bowed and said: "Brother, please send another message, Xuan is at the door."
Wait outside, if Mr. Song wants to see me anytime, please summon me at any time."
After he finished speaking, Shangguan Li wanted to say more, and the two of them drove the carriage to the wall on the roadside and sat on the carriage to rest.
"You..." Huang Shan was speechless for a while, you are still here.
He didn't bother to say more, you just want to wait. He closed the door and went back to drink. In the past, he didn't have enough to eat in the village, so he didn't have to think about other things. Now he finds that wine is really a good thing!
A few days ago, he fell in love with this kind of thing after being given a few drinks by Qiu Changtian.
The best thing is that they have no shortage of good wine! The Su family's biggest business in Daisu City is wine. When they came to Baizhan City, Su Yunji brought a lot of good wine to open up the market. After Qiu Changtian finished drinking it, she went
Ask Su Yunji for it.
The old guy was very thick-skinned, and Su Yunji was embarrassed not to give it.
