Chapter 77 Geng Yan Expansion
When Xuan Yuan knew that Lin Mo had promoted directly again, he didn't care much, because there were ten of the other thirty-eight people who were his, but King Rong, who had only five left, was a little panicked.
Looking at Xu Qiuniang beside him, King Rong held the wine glass and said suspiciously: "Qiuniang, do you say that Ling Chen has not appeared and has taken two bye trips? Is it because of the luck of Lin Ziyong, or is he doing something behind the scenes?"
Xu Qiuniang thought for a while and said, "It's unknown. Maybe Lin Ziyong is making trouble behind the scenes, or maybe this person is really lucky to meet him."
Immediately, he comforted King Rong and said, "But you don't have to worry, Prince, anyway, Lin Mo will lose without a doubt, and luck will no longer work."
"How do you say this?" King Rong was puzzled.
Xu Qiuniang smiled and said, "After the third round, there will be twenty people left, and these twenty people will only show up again. At that time, we have to rely on their own real skills."
Nineteen people will be eliminated in the third round, and Lin Mo, who has become a bye again in this round, will have twenty people in the fourth round to compete. After the fourth round, ten people will stand out from the martial arts test and enter tomorrow's literary test.
"I understand!" King Rong also understood.
Looking at the remaining thirty-eight people, he looked at Lin Mo who was sitting on the participants' special observation stand with a look of ease. Some people were very angry, that was Xiang Yuan, the younger brother of the Chu king.
"Damn it, my people have been eliminated. They are all waste, waste!"
Looking at Lin Mo who was talking with a relaxed look on his face, Xiang Yuan's eyes were quite stern at this moment, and he held the wine glass in his hand tightly, as if he was holding Lin Mo and wanted to pinch him to death.
Han Qianyue had a profound realm, so she naturally heard Xiang Yuan's low anger, but said nothing, just shook her head, her face full of helplessness and lament.
Under the gaze of the crowd, the third round of competition began, and the battle on the stage became more and more intense. Lin Mo did not count, but the remaining thirty-eight people were all masters to a certain extent, at least they were at the swordsman level.
In the brocade shed of Lin Mansion.
Without paying attention to the battle on the competition stage, he looked at Geng Yan who was stunned from a distance, touched Lin Mo who was smiling embarrassedly, Bai Zhilan turned her head and looked at Baili Qingcheng, and suddenly said, "Qingcheng, do you believe it? If you can still take the bye in the fourth round, the bye will still be our husband."
Yan Baiyu and Changsun Youyin quickly understood Bai Zhilan's words, but Baili Qingcheng, who was simple-minded, didn't understand: "Sister Zhilan, why? It was a lottery draw based on their own luck, and my husband wouldn't know in advance that blank note was..."
Baili Qingcheng wanted to say that Lin Mo didn't know where the blank note was, but he stopped talking and suddenly understood: "Honey, did you cheat? What did you do?"
Yan Baiyu smiled pursed his lips, glanced at the little eunuch Sili who was in charge of the competition, and said, "Qingcheng, look at the little eunuch Sili. Do you think he looks familiar?"
"Then let me see!" Baili Qingcheng looked at the little eunuch Si Li with suspicious eyes. He was shocked, covered his mouth and cried out in a tender voice, and then controlled the volume and said, "Isn't that a guard in our mansion? Why did he become a eunuch?"
That's right, the little eunuch Sili is one of the 36 guards of the Lin Mansion.
"Fake it!" Changsun Youyin, who has always been unwilling to talk, suddenly said.
"Fake?" Baili Qingcheng looked at Changsun Youyin in confusion.
Changsun Youyin nodded his head and said, "This morning, I got up early, so I saw my husband explaining to the guard before going to the morning court. Now I know that the guard was disguised as the little eunuch of the ritual."
"Oh! So that's it." Baili then relieved the doubts in his heart. No wonder his family's luck was so good, but suddenly remembered something and said in confusion: "That Ling Chen didn't, was it also done by his husband?"
"That's natural!" Bai Zhilan took the words and said, "Qingcheng, have you forgotten that our husband went to Shihua Street yesterday afternoon? I guess which building Ling Chen is in at this time!"
Now, Baili Qingcheng finally understood everything.
How to ensure that Lin Mo got the blank note? It’s very simple. The guards of Lin’s mansion disguised as the little eunuch of Sili hid the blank note, and then Lin Mo came forward to take it and handed it to Lin Mo when he took it forward.
Dozens of notes were placed in the wooden plate, one missing, no one would find it.
Time slowly passed by more than half an hour before the third round of competition ended. Although it was eighteen rounds, it took some time since the rest were all good players.
Geng Yan also won this round, but the victory was very dangerous, with only one move left, because his opponent in this round, Hu Shanye was a cultivator who had half a foot as big swordsman realm as he had reached the realm of a great swordsman.
But in order to keep being chic, Geng Yan won, and then turned around and jumped off the competition again, which immediately won the cheers of many girls of all sizes.
Looking at the girls who were shouting loudly, Lin Mo suddenly remembered the crazy scenes of those girls chasing the star when he was in China, and he felt speechless in his heart.
When Geng Yan returned to the participants' special observation stand, Lin Mo took back his speechless mind and congratulated him with a relaxed look on his face: "Young Master Geng is indeed extremely strong, and he defeated his opponent so easily in this round."
Relaxed? This young master almost lost! Although Geng Yan thought so, he pretended to be relaxed and happy, and said in a fake way: "Where is it, it's not that I am too strong, but that the opponent is too weak!"
"Oh, so that's it!" Lin Mo looked as if he understood it, and then he raised his head: "It seems that Mr. Geng is the one who most hopes to become Princess Rena's future husband in this bride recruitment conference!"
After being praised by Lin Mo, Geng Yan instantly forgot the narrow victory just now and said confidently: "That's natural. Apart from this young master, who else has the right to marry the number one beauty in the Western Regions!"
The whole person became floating again.
"That's natural. Only Mr. Geng, you are the handsome guy!"
The third round ended, and under the leadership of the eunuch Sili, the fourth round of draws began immediately, and the result was soon released. Geng Yan's opponent came out in this round, named Jian Chen.
Geng Yan was a little disappointed. He thought that he could teach Lin Mo a lesson in the martial arts examination according to His Highness Rong's instructions, but after all, he would inevitably feel unwilling to accept it without this opportunity.
"Sir Shangqing, who is your opponent?"
After knowing his opponent, Geng Yan seemed to have formed a habit and asked Lin Mo again, thinking: There are only twenty people left in total, but there are no bye players anymore. Lin Mo, your luck is useless!
With Lin Mo's humble attitude, Geng Yan was completely floating. He had known the superiority and inferiority before, and respectfully called Lin Mo "you". In honor of respect, he is now called "you".
However, Lin Mo naturally didn't want to take it in his heart. He pretended to be lamenting and handed the note in his hand directly to Geng Yan: "Young Master Geng, please see it yourself, I don't know this person either." "Okay, I will help you take a look at it!" Geng Yan opened the note, and saw three beautiful words written on it: Shen Yuxiu.
Seeing these three words, Geng Yan was immediately overjoyed. He knew this person, forcibly suppressed the extreme joy that surged in his heart, and smiled and said, "Sir Shangqing, your luck this time is quite bad!"
"Oh, Mr. Geng, where do you start?" Lin Mo asked in disguise.
Geng Yan explained: "Shen Yuxiu is not simple. He is the number one young genius in our imperial capital, the young owner of the Sword Villa. He had already entered the realm of a great swordsman when he was only twenty years old."
Before, what Geng Yan was most afraid of was to meet Shen Yuxiu. Now he didn't expect that Lin Mo would meet him in the fourth round. Geng Yan was so happy, but due to Lin Mo's identity, he still held back his smile.
Seeing Geng Yan as if he was overwhelmed with joy, Lin Mo hurriedly asked while the iron was hot, "That young master Geng, what is the realm of Shen Yuxiu now?"
Geng Yan paused for a moment and guessed: "Now that Shen Yuxiu is twenty-three years old, he may have already achieved the peak of the Great Swordsman. Lord Shangqing, your hope of winning this time is slim!"
Lin Mo frowned, as if thinking about his strategy to fight against Shen Yuxiu.
Seeing Lin Mo like this, Geng Yan said bluntly without hesitation: "Sir, you don't have to think so much. Just go up and abstain directly. No one dares to say you."
As he said that, Geng Yan also patted Lin Mo on the shoulder, like a brother.
In front of the Luanfeng Pavilion, King Rong in the brocade shed saw Geng Yan patting Lin Mo's shoulder with the "intimate" action. He suddenly felt bad and immediately became angry: "What is that idiot Geng Yan doing?"
"I don't know, then I have to ask our Dr. Geng." Xu Qiuniang shook her head:
King Rong turned around and looked at Geng Bai, one of the new doctors of the Ministry of Justice, and asked: "Geng Bai, what exactly does your son do? How dare you be so arrogant to Lin Ziyong, you are simply disrespectful!"
At first, King Rong felt happy when he saw Geng Yan and Lin Mo chatting. After all, Geng Yan would take over Geng Bai's position in the future, so it would be great to have a good relationship with Lin Mo.
But now, King Rong actually saw Geng Yan patting Lin Mo on the shoulder. He was calling Lin Mo brothers? This is very disrespectful. You should know that Lin Mo is one of the only two nobles in Daqian. What is your identity as Geng Yan?
Even Geng Yan, your father, who is now a doctor in the Ministry of Justice, is not qualified.
Geng Bai, who was in his fifties and had gray hair, felt a burst of sweat in his heart, and he stammered: "This...this...this, this, the old minister, I don't know that Yan'er, he usually restrains himself and returns to courtesy."
Looking at Geng Bai's trembling appearance, King Rong snorted coldly: "I tell you Geng Bai that if nothing happened, I will not pursue it. If I offend Lin Ziyong, I will not be able to protect you!"
Immediately, King Rong drank the wine in his glass and stopped talking.
Geng Bai looked at the son who was still patting Lin Mo's shoulder, and then at Lin Mo with a smile on his face. His heart suddenly tensed up, and he felt that something was wrong.
However, Geng Yan, as the person involved, had no sense of self-consciousness at all. He was still immersed in the world of self-respecting, speaking and persuading him.
Geng Yan put his hand on Lin Mo's shoulder and persuaded him: "Sir, it's better to just abstain from my advice. Just you can't beat Shen Yuxiu."
There was a hint of contempt in the words.
