Chapter 115 I will not fight
He knew that Xiahou Kuang would not ask at all, but saying this could make the words more credible. Sure enough, after he said this, Xiahou Kuang was furious and stomped his feet. The bluestone slab in front of Xiahou's house was trampled to pieces, and a deep pit appeared under the stone slab.
"Bastard, he is so brave!" Xiahou cursed angrily.
Seeing that the temperature was similar, Xie Baoshu hurriedly struck while the iron was hot and said: "Zhou Jin came to our Langang from a small place, thinking about becoming famous. After he used a conspiracy to seize Brother Ba's position, he said everywhere today that the reason why the third aunt of Yin used him was because he was much better than Brother Ba. If the two sides competed, he could easily kill Brother Ba."
"What?" Xiahou Kuang gritted his teeth and asked these two words. Xie Baoshu nodded and said, "That's what he said. Zhou Jin was talking nonscrupulously because Brother Ba was in seclusion and could not come out. I almost got angry after hearing this today. I wanted to tell Brother Ba, but Brother Ba was in seclusion..."
Xiahou Kuang grabbed Xie Baoshu's collar and pulled the person directly in front of him. He lowered his voice and asked, "Where is the mess now?"
"Brother Kuang, wait for Brother Ba to come out of seclusion." Xie Baoshu said as if he wanted to get. Xiahou Kuang's eyes were already red, and he grabbed Xie Baoshu and shook.
"...It's in the scale armored shark guard reserve camp, Brother Kuang, don't be impulsive!" Xie Baoshu said hurriedly. He was very familiar with Xiahou Kuang's personality and knew what the other party would react. Moreover, there were many vague things in the words he said just now. At that time, he could directly push the blame cleanly, but Xie Baoshu knew that Xiahou Kuang would not analyze it carefully at all, and would not find anyone to confirm it.
As Xie Baoshu expected, Xiahou Kuang threw the person down and turned his head toward the direction of Langang City.
Xie Baoshu climbed up from the ground, raised his hand and shouted, "Second brother, don't be impulsive!" Xiahou Kuang ignored his greetings at all, dragged a passerby off the horse, and drove the horse to run wildly. Xiahou Kuang, who was furious, naturally could not see it. Xie Baoshu behind him showed a smug smile on his face.
For Zhou Jinlai, Xie Baoshu was just a clown who beat him and then beat him, and he didn't take it seriously at all. He walked very easily along the way. The Northern Region Blue Port was many times more prosperous than Black Stone City, and he was also very comfortable to see the lively scene along the way.
When we walked to the main road in front of the reserve team, there were no other pedestrians on the road, but members of the reserve team.
Before breakfast today, few people knew Zhou Jin, but after hearing that he went to Wanbeast Pit to be tested and had to get 50% more, Zhou Jin was already famous in this reserve team.
Everyone was very surprised and whispered.
"Why is this kid back?"
"Can he pass that test?"
"Nonsense, that's going to Wanbeast Pit, and he has to get a full fifty. The punishment team will have six or seven people going to fight each time, and they can only get two or three points at a time. How could he do that?"
"I haven't finished it, he actually has the courage to come back?"
"... Look, this guy went out wearing this outfit in the morning, and now the clothes have changed so much, not even dust is covered with much dust."
Zhou Jin had a lot of fierce battles this day, but Zhou Jin's strength is completely different from before. Most of the time, his energy bursts out and attacks from the air to resist, and it is difficult for the enemy to get close to him. Therefore, after fighting with the giant bone spur wolf and the four-armed iron-backed ape, his body was not dirty. As for Yin Qingxue and Xie Baoshu, at most, Zhou Jin's body was covered with dust.
However, only by seeing Zhou Jin’s things with his own eyes can we know the truth. The reserve team is busy completing the test all day long, and no one has time to go to Wanbeast Pit to watch the game, so everyone is talking about it.
"It's true that I've seen the Ten Thousand Beasts Pits competition many times. Even if the warriors win, they will be covered in rags. Could it be?"
"Can't this kid come over and sees it. After seeing it, he didn't dare to go down and take action at all, and came back in shame!"
"It is possible that the country boy who came out of a small place, knows where Wanbeast Pit is, must have gone with confidence and is scared as soon as he goes!"
"Look, this kid pretends to be calm. Do you think he can get away with it? He definitely doesn't know that people are staring at these tests of the scaled shark guards, and there is no way to fake it."
The discussion kept floating into Zhou Jin's ears. No one thought that Zhou Jin could get 50 points and could complete the test in the Ten Thousand Beasts Pit. Some people said that he ran back when he was afraid and wanted to get away with it. As soon as this statement came out, everyone agreed immediately.
On the way, the reserve team members looked at Zhou Jin with ridicule and contempt, and a few people also had sympathy on their faces, "Oh, when you come out of your home to participate in this scale-armored shark guard, your family must have received great expectations, but no matter how much you expect, you can't save your life for this. It's really not easy!"
Zhou Jin didn't care about rumors at all. When he was in the world, he had heard many vicious words that were even more excessive than this. Even when Zhou Jin was in Black Stone City, the ridicule and sarcasm he heard was even better than this.
Along the way, he didn't see the people coming out of Black Stone City. Zhou Jin walked to the gate of the reserve camp and showed the iron sign with "Twenty-four" written on it. The guards in front of the door were directly released. However, the warriors in front of the door also knew that Zhou Jin had a test of 50% of the beast pit. When he saw him coming back, he was surprised.
When Zhou Jin walked into the camp, he could hear the comments behind him:
"This kid is finished"!
"If you offend someone, how could you go to the Wan Beast Pit?"
"It's better if you don't dare to fight. If you can't get into the scaled shark guard, it's just disappointment. This disappointment is better than losing your life!"
Zhou Jin shook his head and smiled. No one felt that he could complete the test along the way. Everyone was suspicious that he fled without fighting. It was really interesting. House No. 24 where Zhou Jin was located was in the center of the reserve camp. As he walked, more and more reserve players saw him. The news that Zhou Jin fled without fighting quickly spread throughout the reserve camp.
Back to the 24th house, several people had already returned from the house. The spy Yu Ji, who was stationed by the scaled shark guard, sat quietly on the bed. Han Youcai, Huang Nanbang and three others had already returned.
Han Youcai sat on a chair, boasting about his experience: "I went to the widow's place, first greeted the old widow, and then went to the mountain outside Blue Port to chop firewood. I took a knife and chopped five hundred kilograms of firewood quickly. I hired a big cart to pull it back, and then made up her house that leaked rain. When I arrived at the fish market, I happened to encounter those rogues blackmailing. I punched one by one. You didn't see it. When I left, the old widow was grateful."
Speaking of this, when he saw Zhou Jin walking in, Han Youcai immediately shut up and looked at Zhou Jin with a little nervousness. Yu Ji, who was sitting on the bed, looked at Zhou Jin with amazement, but this expression quickly turned into regret and understanding, and he shook his head gently.
However, the fat man Huang Nanbang looked up and down at Zhou Jin for a few times, showed a smug and sinister smile on his face, and he leaned into Han Youcai's ear and whispered a few words.
After hearing a few words, the nervous expression on his face disappeared, instead he showed a smug smile and looked at Zhou Jin provocatively. As soon as Huang Nanbang finished speaking, Han Youcai jumped out of the chair and pointed at Zhou Jin and said, "Aren't you capable? Can you fight? Why did you come back like a stray dog? You waste, I will... In the future." Before he finished speaking, Zhou Jin suddenly appeared in front of Han Youcai, raised his hand and slapped him in the face. Han Youcai raised his arm and wanted to block it, but Zhou Jin's movement was extremely fast, and he could resist it. He heard a crisp sound and slapped it hard in the face.
Zhou Jin didn't want to kill people, but he didn't want such a person to be disgusted with a slap. With the cleverness of this slap, Han Youcai soared into the air, his body was uncontrollably spinning in the air, and he fell directly outside the door, landing heavily on the ground, unable to get up for a long time.
The fat man Huang Nanbang stayed there immediately. He thought Zhou Jin was unlucky and was happy, but he forgot that the other party was much better than him. Zhou Jin didn't say much, but just said, "Get out, don't annoy you here."
The voice was faint. Fatty Huang trembled after hearing this and hurriedly ran out to support Han Youcai.
A man suddenly flew out in the clouds and mist. Many reserve team members who returned to the camp were alarmed and many people had gathered to watch the fun.
After Han Youcai was helped by Huang Nanbang, he fell and was very unsuccessful. So many people came to watch. Han Youcai felt that he was very embarrassed. In public, the two sides set aside again. Han Youcai thought that Zhou Jin, who failed the test, dared not take action again. He pointed at the door and cursed: "You cowards are so arrogant. You don't dare to beat them in the trap of Wan Beasts. The coward who escaped in shame will be fired soon. You kid will be a joke."
Only then did the people around outside know that Han Youcai was beaten by Zhou Jin. Zhou Jin did not dare to accept the test. The speculation that he ran back from the Wan Beast Pit had spread throughout the entire reserve camp. In everyone's mind, such a failed character should be a human being with his tail. No one expected that he would be so arrogant and domineering, just to this point!
Han Youcai's slander came into the house. The rest of the people in the house looked at Zhou Jin with strange eyes, trying to see a look of shame and anger from Zhou Jin's expression, but he didn't expect that Zhou Jin looked calm and did not care.
Zhou Jin only regarded Han Youcai and Huang Nanbang as clowns. These two people thought they had failed based on speculation, and they rashly provoked them regardless of their strong strength. Such a foolish clown would just teach a lesson once, and there was no need to spend more energy.
"Brother Yu, today I heard something when I went to Wanbeasts' pit. The Dragon Girl in Beihai will send representatives to compete in the martial arts in 20 days, and the competition is very important. What kind of competition is this? Who are you going to fight with?" Zhou Jin asked.
Yu Ji in the room was the eyeliner installed by the scaled shark guard. This person is an indigenous person from the Blue Port in the Northern Region. He must be well-informed and understands a lot about the stories and other things. He happened to ask about the details of the competition. Of course, he had to agree quickly at the time of the Wanbeast Pit. However, in the face of the battle, he must know himself and his enemy, so that he can have a chance of winning.
Yu Ji was stunned. Unexpectedly, Zhou Jin still had the heart to ask this. Yu Ji was observing him when he came back from Zhou Jin. Seeing the young man from Black Stone City looked calm and thought he was pretending to be calm. But after hearing this question, he felt that this calmness was not something he could do. Yu Ji pondered for a while and decided to answer.
"The competition is the Blue Port Championship. Now the ten elders in Blue Port have equal status, and there is no distinction between high and low. At the beginning, the ten elders had a difference in rankings. The chief elder has the greatest power. In order to decide who is in the top ranking, this competition was held. The elder who won the first championship was the chief elder. Since the ten elders had equal status, this competition has lost its meaning, but this competition has been preserved. The ten elders in Blue Port in the Northern Region will participate every year, but the elders no longer participate, or send children from the family, or select representatives." Yu Ji knew very much.
The few who came back in this room were all locals from the Northern Region Blue Port. Someone added: "After the competition, the ranking was set, and the first place was called the chief. Although there was no power, it was a rare honor. The elders valued this very much. Moreover, young people under the age of 25 were required to participate in these years. Some elders did not have young people of appropriate age in their homes, so they chose outstanding children from other families. If young warriors could participate in this competition, it would be a great honor!"
The other people talked about the question raised by Zhou Jin. Before Zhou Jin could speak, someone interrupted and said, "Yin Sangu chose Xiahou Ba, the eldest son of the Xiahou family this year. He thought that Wu Junhou's nephew would definitely win the championship, but this time it's over!"
"Then Xiahou Ba is just a monster. No one is telling a joke. Put Xiahou Ba in the Ten Thousand Beasts Pit. The Ten Thousand Beasts Pit must be quiet. The beasts and beasts will be frightened by him!"
There was a laugh in the room. Zhou Jin heard it very carefully. He had never heard of the name Xiahou Ba, but if he could be selected by Yin Lianhua, the dragon girl of Beihai, this person must be extremely outstanding. Zhou Jin paid more attention to the Marquis of Wu Jun.
"Xiaoyao Sanxian" Wu Junhou is a famous strong man in the Northern Region and one of the ten elders of the Northern Region Blue Port. Wu Junhou's growth is a legend. Although it cannot be compared with Yun Tianzong's life, it is also very distinctive.
When Wu Junhou was a child, his family had fallen into decline, and even his family's martial arts were incomplete. Moreover, Wu Junhou's parents were both dead and he was discriminated against in the family. Not only did he not receive complete training, but most of his family property was taken away.
Unwilling to be like this, Wu Junhou handed over the remaining property to his brother and crossed the sea to study in the southern region. Unexpectedly, he was taught by experts on the other side of the sea. His martial arts made rapid progress. After returning to the Northern Region Blue Port, Zhongxing's family business, swept away the sixteen groups of thieves in the east of the Northern Region Blue Port within three days, and killed the evil strongmen behind these thieves alone.
After his reputation was so great, Wu Junhou easily defeated his clan members and became the patriarch of the Wu family. Because he had gone to the Southern Region to study martial arts and had deep relationships there, he monopolized several bulk goods trades and soon became rich.
With strong strength and wealth support, Wu Junhou became a member of the Tenth Presbyterian Church and officially became the ruler of the Northern Region Blue Port in five years.
Moreover, after Wu Junhou's training and teaching, the children of the Wu family quickly became stronger, and the Wu family's strength expanded rapidly. Soon Wu Junhou became the strongest person in the Ten Elders of the Blue Port in the Northern Region, the true number one elder.
What Zhou Jin paid more attention to him was Yun Tianzong's evaluation. At that time, the two of them came to the Northern Region Blue Port. Yun Tianzong looked at all the strong people here, "This person has no flaws." If you can get such an evaluation from Yun Tianzong, this person must be extraordinary.
The house was happy to discuss, Zhou Jin was thinking hard there, but Han Youcai was cursing outside, but the more he cursed, the less he was, the less powerful he was. Although everyone thought that Zhou Jin fled without fighting, many people knew that Zhou Jin had taught Han Youcai a lesson on the day he just came. Such a coward who could not be beaten was really despised.
The onlookers were still talking about Zhou Jin at first, but later they began talking about Han Youcai, basically ridicule and contempt. Han Youcai became more and more angry. When he heard the laughter in the room, he finally couldn't help it.
Han Youcai thought the laughter was a shame for him. He wanted to go in and teach the laughing lesson, but he did not dare to appear in front of Zhou Jin again. The fat man Huang next to him quickly whispered: "Boss, let's sue him and let someone drive him out!"
Hearing Huang Nanbang's statement, Han Youcai's eyes lit up, pointed to the room and cursed: "If you have the surname Zhou, don't think you can continue to be rampant. I will complain now. I will drive you out of this camp and let you go back to your hometown in shame!"
After saying that, he turned around and left. The people watching the fun were boring. Someone said disdainfully: "Isn't this just that the child can't beat him and call his parents when he goes back?"
A group of people burst into laughter. Among these reserve team members, many of Han Youcai couldn't afford to offend him. He didn't dare to turn around, but just accelerated his pace to leave.
Zhou Jin didn't care about the clown's clamor. He focused on listening to the comments of several people in the room and summed up meaningful news from it.
Yin Lianhua's eldest son is very strong, but he is over thirty years old. His second son is focused on business and his younger daughter is weak, so he chose Xiahou Ba. Although the Xiahou family is not considered the first-class wealthy family in the Northern Region Blue Port, the martial artists have always been very strong.
The idlers who have good things in the Northern Region Blue Port have selected the ten strongest young people, and Xiahou Ba is one of them. There are rumors that the Dragon Girl of Beihai wants to use this competition to choose a husband for her daughter, and Xiahou Ba is his favorite candidate.
After hearing the news, Zhou Jin couldn't help but smile bitterly. When Xiahou Ba knew that he had been replaced by him, he would definitely hate him very much. He would have no chance to make him famous and beautiful, and everyone would be resentful.
Wu Tianhao, the nephew of Wu Junhou, is even more extraordinary. He is the only child of the Wu family who has received the true teachings of Wu Junhou. Wu Tianhao also has a nickname called "Xiaoyao Xiaosanxian". Everyone thinks he is the heir of Wu Junhou, and some even think that Wu Tianhao is the strongest among the young warriors in the Blue Port of the Northern Region!
Whether he is replaced by himself or is going to face, he is a strong man. Zhou Jin is very cautious in his heart. He knows that this place is different from Black Stone City and the Five City Alliance. It is more than one level higher than there, and the strong man here cannot be taken lightly.
"Didn't these two people join the scaled shark guard?" Zhou Jin asked another question. Xiahou Ba and Wu Tianhao are not old, but they don't sound like they are in the scaled shark guard, otherwise they wouldn't have competed freely.
"You are too naive. This scale-armored shark guard is for people outside and there is no way to join the local people. How could their wealthy family come here!" Someone retorted disdainfully.
Some people immediately interrupted: "You can't say that. Some people are ambitious and want to come in and move up step by step. If you become the commander, you will be the ten-team..."
Before they could finish their words, everyone stopped because they walked into the room alone. The man was wearing blue soft armor, which was the shark soldier Liu Zhengyun!
Behind Liu Zhengyun were Han Youcai and Huang Nanbang, who were full of arrogant faces. Both of them looked at Zhou Jin with gloating pleasure. They felt that Zhou Jin was finished.
The reserve team members were nothing, and even the most ordinary scaled scalypse among the scaled shark guards could order them. In front of high-level members like Liu Zhengyun, the reserve team members were all nervous, and those who were sitting on the bed quickly stood up from the bed.
Liu Zhengyun looked at Zhou Jin with anger on his face, with a very serious expression, but Zhou Jin keenly noticed that there was a hint of pride in the shark Liu Zhengyun's eyes.
Han Youcai and Huang Nanbang first reported the news to the deputy of the Linzhong team who was on duty. The deputy of the team did not dare to make decisions by themselves, so he reported it to the upwards, which was heard by the Sharkman Liu Zhengyun.
Liu Zhengyun did not accidentally learn that after returning from Wanzhan Pit, he was extremely concerned about the news about the reserve camp. Liu Zhengyun did not expect that Zhou Jin was so strong, and that he had made so many arrangements and was broken by Zhou Jin, so he was also a little at a loss.
After hearing the news reported by Han Youcai and the others, Liu Zhengyun was stunned at first, and then overjoyed. Zhou Jin came back without getting enough points, which means he had not completed the test. In this way, he could fire Zhou Jin. An outsider who was not subordinate to any organization was an ant that could be killed at any time without fear.
Liu Zhengyun, who made up his mind, rushed towards Room No. 24. As soon as he entered the house, he saw Zhou Jin and several reserve team members chatting there, looking very leisurely. When he saw Zhou Jin's relaxed expression, Liu Zhengyun sneered in his heart, thinking to see when you can be proud of it.
Sharkman Liu Zhengyun sneered in his heart, but asked seriously on the surface: "Zhou Jin, have you completed the test?"
Zhou Jin sat there and shook his head, and said, "I won't continue to fight!"
The people watching outside had already come to the door and lie directly on the window with boldness. Everyone was looking inside, waiting for the unlucky Zhou Jin to be fired.
When Zhou Jin said this, the audience was shocked and quiet. Everyone felt that they had guessed it right, but everyone was surprised to see Zhou Jin and thought that Zhou Jin was so generous, wouldn’t it be embarrassing to be a deserter?
And careful people even see that after the shark Liu Zhengyun came in, he stood there and scolded him, while Zhou Jin sat upright on the bed without moving, as if the shark Liu Zhengyun's status was much lower than that of Zhou Jin.
Chapter completed!
