Ruins of the past

Listening to what his elder brother Hao Yongtai said, Hao Xiangtong seemed to see a real martial arts life vividly displayed in front of him. Winning or losing was not the most important, but the fame and fortune hidden behind the winning and losing was the most important.

Hao Xiangtong said angrily: "Doesn't that mean that no matter how much Chu Qiguang wins, the Tianyu School will continue to throw dirty water on him? Even the more he wins, the harder they throw dirty water on him?"

"Of course." Hao Yongtai looked disappointed: "The disputes between martial arts schools...the battles for official interests...party struggles...all kinds of battles are involved because of interests. Even Fei Yi, as the leader of the Tianyu School, can't stop it."

"Unless one day the Tianyu School is completely suppressed and another school takes its place, their battle with us will never stop."

Hearing Hao Yongtai's words, Hao Xiangtong felt discouraged. In her eyes, the Tianyu School was at its peak, with influence all over the north and deep roots. How could it be replaced?

Suddenly Hao Xiangtong's eyes lit up and he said, "What if Chu Qiguang beats Jiang Longyu? No matter what excuse he makes, it will look ugly, right?"

Hao Yongtai laughed when he heard this. He felt that his sister was still too young. How could Jiang Longyu lose? If Jiang Longyu hadn't been so stable, he wouldn't have gone to the pawnshop yesterday to pawn his jade pendant and bet on Jiang Longyu again, just hoping to get some money back.

'What a pity, there are so many people going to Jiang Longyu, and the odds are so low...I don't think I will make much in the end...but small mosquitoes are still meat...'

Thinking this in his heart, Hao Yongtai shook his head: "Chu Qiguang is very powerful, but Jiang Longyu... that is one of the eight generals of the Xinghan Dynasty calculated by His Majesty and Qin Tianjian together. He and Chu Qiguang are not the same." the same."

…

Chen Gang on the other side followed Chu Qiguang all the way to the ring and whispered: "Brother Dog, I heard that there is a gambling stall here where you can place bets on Wu Ke..."

Chu Qiguang suddenly glanced at him: "You didn't place a bet, did you?"

Chen Gang said: "No... no... Brother Gou, you have taught me before that you must never do anything you don't call me, and you cannot make decisions on your own."

Before the exam, Chu Qiguang learned that there was a gambling stall in Beiyue Prefecture where he could bet on martial arts results, but this kind of thing of betting on oneself when taking part in exams and competitions... was a bit sensitive, especially There are lessons learned from the past in martial arts.

Chu Qiguang knew that in the history of the Han Dynasty, there was a martial arts genius who bet him ten thousand taels that he would get the first place in the children's examination. In the end, he actually got the first place. Officials in the court immediately impeached this martial arts genius, and the reason they used was: If you hadn't committed fraud, how could you dare to bet ten thousand taels that you would win the first place?

Although no real evidence could be found in the end, under the impeachment of many officials, this martial arts genius was still stripped of his grades and disqualified from the scientific examination for life.

From then on, candidates were not allowed to place bets on themselves or others in the scientific examination.

Especially when Chu Qiguang was already a thorn in the eyes of many people, it was even more important to avoid suspicion.

In a local gambling house like this, even if he secretly lets people place bets, it would be easy for the local wealthy to find out.

Moreover, based on the size of Beiyue Prefecture Tong Shi Wu Ke's gambling odds and the total amount of funds, it was only tens of thousands taels. Chu Qiguang could only earn a few thousand taels at most, which was not worth risking his political career.

After giving instructions to Chen Gang, Chu Qiguang had already walked to the ring.

Chen Gang looked at Chu Qiguang's walking back from behind, and suddenly a doubt arose in his heart: "Why does Brother Dog look weird today?"

The next moment, the invigilator shouted: "Chu Qiguang versus Jiang Longyu!"

Many viewers were immediately surprised.

Some candidates shouted: "The first game today is Jiang Longyu fighting Chu Qiguang?"

Some viewers laughed: "Haha, it's better to cripple him in the first game! You don't have to see Chu Qiguang's triumphant look!"

Another audience member shouted: "I bet that Chu Qiguang can only hold on to five moves. Which of you will bet on me?" Other audience members immediately gathered around him.

No one here thought that Jiang Longyu would lose, because Jiang Longyu was different. He was a world-famous martial arts prodigy, a son of luck who was destined to continue the fate of the Han Dynasty, and a peerless genius who was appointed by the emperor and Qin Tianjian.

…

On the high platform, Magistrate Xue listened calmly to the report of the boy next to him. He knew that Chu Qiguang had not placed any bets on him, had not met any examiners, and had no signs of taking any banned pills...not during the examination period. Pretty much just stayed in my room and didn't do anything extra.

Magistrate Xue secretly felt regretful, otherwise he would have destroyed Chu Qiguang if he made any mistakes.

‘This Chu Qiguang is quite cautious. ’

'But Jiang Longyu has already decided that he should be able to defeat Chu Qiguang on the stage. ’

Just when Zhifu Xue was thinking this, the duel between Jiang Longyu and Chu Qiguang was about to begin.

This was of course arranged by Magistrate Xue last night to prevent the duel between Chu Qiguang and Jiang Longyu from being delayed too far and allowing Chu Qiguang to defeat too many other candidates, which would have adverse effects.

…

At the same time, Chu Qiguang, who was slowly walking towards the ring, was in an unprecedented novel experience. He could still control his body completely, but he felt that another consciousness was connected to his body, and he could still control it. Assist him in controlling his physical body.

‘Is this how humans and cats complement each other? Strange feeling. ’

If Chu Qiguang was forced to describe his feelings, it would be that while he could control his physical body, Qiao Zhi could also remotely control his physical body, but Qiao Zhi's every thought required his consent.

‘It’s like the 360 ​​in the computer keeps popping up and asking me if I agree with this operation. ’

At the same time, he thought of Qiao Zhi's voice in his mind: "Relax a little, trust me! I promise to give you a good beating!"

At this moment, George was lying on the roof nearby, the cat's body curled up into a ball, and the entire cat's consciousness was focused on Chu Qiguang.

Chu Qiguang said: "Why do I feel that your operation is not as good as mine..."

Halfway through his words, the right foot controlled by Qiao Zhi suddenly went limp. Chu Qiguang immediately took over the control himself, stood firm and sighed: "Can you do it?"

"Hey, I just practiced it this morning, haven't you gotten used to it yet?" Qiao Zhi said sarcastically: "After all, I'm used to using a cat's body, and I'm still a little unaccustomed to you. But I'm experienced and rich, so just use it more. Okay, don’t worry.”

Chu Qiguang said: "Then I'll leave it to you for the time being. You give me a good fight. If you don't perform well, I will take back control immediately."

Qiao Zhi said generously: "Don't worry, your physical body combined with my rich experience will make it easy for you to defeat Jiang Longyu."

On the other side of the ring, Jiang Longyu saw Chu Qiguang walking up with an arrogant look as if he was disowning his relatives. He chuckled and said, "Chu Qiguang, you were so crazy yesterday and today."

He smiled and nodded with satisfaction: "But it's better to be crazy."

"What I, Jiang Longyu, like most are arrogant opponents. The more arrogant the opponent is, the more enjoyable I will fight."
