"No. Maybe... it won't be like this..."
Jiang San seemed to have not heard what the host said. He was still unwilling to accept the reality and kept repeating one sentence.
When those idiot fans saw Jiang San’s appearance, they felt extremely distressed and quickly went up to comfort him.
Seeing that Jiang San had lost his mind, the host shook his head helplessly, turned to Qin Tian, smiled slightly and said: "Young master, judging from the current points, you are our best choice this time. The champion of the conference."
When Tieguai Li heard this, he was so happy that the corners of his mouth almost split to the back of his head. If it weren't for the inappropriate occasion, he would jump up and down and cheer for Qin Tian.
Qin Tian was a little surprised. He didn’t expect that he would be the champion. He wondered if the host had found the wrong person, so he pointed to his nose to confirm and asked: "You said the champion is Me?"
The host nodded and said with a smile: "Yes, you have twelve points this time. After Mr. Jiang's points are cleared, you will be the player with the highest points. You can now follow me on stage to receive your prize."
Qin Tian was pleasantly surprised and asked curiously: "What is the prize this time?"
"Um ..." The host smiled mysteriously: "Young master, you will find out when you follow me on stage to open the prize."
"Debt collector, go quickly!" Tieguai Li urged impatiently and excitedly. .
Qin Tian nodded, and then followed the host onto the stage.
The host stretched out his hand and turned it over, and a dark red wooden box about thirty centimeters long and five centimeters wide appeared in his palm.
The wooden box is engraved with incomprehensible Sanskrit. You don’t need to think about it to know that this is a Buddhist scripture. It is surrounded by golden copper strips, and even the copper strips are engraved with Lifelike dragon and phoenix patterns.
There is also a talisman attached to the buckle of the wooden box.
It can be seen that this prize is very rare, otherwise it would not be placed in such a high-end wooden box.
Seeing that the prize was about to be announced, everyone’s eyes were fixed on it.
“Look, look, this year’s prize is about to be announced.”
“Last year it was the Great Sage, the year before that it was Yue Lao, and more than ten years ago It’s Erlang Shen, and I don’t know which god will announce the prize this year.”
According to the practice of previous years, the prizes of the annual lantern riddle competition will be awarded in person by the prize sponsor.
"Who knows if the box contains a brocade cassock?"
Looking at Qin Tian standing on the stage, about to receive the prize of the lantern riddle competition, those stupid fans were so upset. I really hope that the person standing on the stage is Jiang San.
But seeing Jiang San unwilling to accept reality and looking decadent, they couldn't bear to show jealousy and envy, so they could only comfort him.
"Mr. Jiang, the prizes have already begun to be awarded, so don't be sad. This year, just treat them like country bumpkins for once. Anyway, you have won the championship five times in a row."
"Yes, you have already obtained Yue Lao's red thread and the Great Sage's monkey hair. Even if you don't get this year's prize, it's nothing."
"Mr. Jiang , try to be more open-minded."
Jiang San felt a lot better after hearing those comforting words, nodded in agreement: "You are right, I have already received so many rewards, and I have already received so many rewards. I don’t care about one or two.”
“Last year it was the Monkey Hair of the Great Sage, I don’t believe this year’s prize can be better than last year’s prize.”
"Young Master Jiang is right."
As soon as the words fell, the host on the stage used a burst of Qi to open the talisman sealed on the wooden box.
When the talisman was taken off the wooden box, the wooden box opened automatically, and you saw a dazzling red cassock with countless gems inlaid on it, emitting a dazzling light under the light. .
When you are shrouded in light, you can feel a burst of Buddha's light, and you feel unprecedented inner peace.
“The prize for this lantern riddle competition is a brocade cassock sponsored by the Buddha of Merit.”
When the host finished speaking, everyone present cheered.
I had only heard how precious the brocade cassock was before, but now I saw it with my own eyes and realized the magic of this brocade cassock.
“I didn’t expect that the prize for this conference is really a brocade cassock.”
“It is indeed a treasure given by Guanyin Bodhisattva. Just looking at it makes me feel special. Magical."
"I heard that this cassock is made of special gold threads and is inlaid with more than a hundred rare gems. It can also ward off evil spirits. This is better than ever before. Any prize is much more powerful."
"No, no matter in terms of value or function, this brocade cassock of Merit Buddha is indeed better than the previous ones.The prizes in the past were much more powerful. "
"I heard that the meritorious Buddha reluctantly gave up this brocade cassock as a prize. I didn't expect it to be true. "
"I didn't expect this little brother to be so lucky. He got such a big prize for the first time. I'm really envious. "
At this time, the host pressed his hands to everyone to signal for silence.
"The Buddha of Merit just sent a message to me, saying that he was involved in personal matters and could not come in person. Come over and present awards to the contestants. I will take care of the prizes for this lantern riddle competition. "
As he spoke, the host handed the wooden box to Qin Tian.
Qin Tian looked at the cassock in front of him and curled his lips, as if he was not very interested.< br />
Turning to look at the audience, he saw Tieguai Li's excited expression and motioned for him to hurry up and follow. Qin Tian knew that this cassock was what Tieguai Li wanted.
“I don’t know why Tieguai Li likes this. "
Qin Tian murmured and prepared to reach out to pick it up.
"This brocade cassock is mine! ”
At this moment, a roar suddenly sounded from the audience.
Following the sound, he saw Jiang San with red eyes, pointing at Qin Tianda angrily. He shouted: "This person doesn't deserve to have this beautiful cassock at all. I am the champion of this year's lantern riddle competition." ”
Originally Jiang San had already accepted the fact of defeat, but when he saw that this year’s prize was a brocade cassock, he suddenly lost his composure.
This brocade cassock A gemstone on the cassock can be sold for at least tens of millions of merit points. More than a hundred gemstones, that is more than a billion.
This is a temptation that no one can refuse.
In addition, there is only one last question between Jiang San and Jinlan Kasaya. If the last question had not been answered incorrectly, the Jinlan Kasaya would have been his.
Therefore, Jiang San no matter what I couldn't accept it no matter what.
Seeing that Jiang San was still stubborn, the host said helplessly: "Mr. Jiang, I have already revealed the answer to the lantern riddle to you. The fact is that you don't have it." The answer is correct. According to the rules, the champion of this competition is indeed this young man. "
"What bullshit rules. "
Jiang San waved his hand and lost his mind and shouted: "I remember very clearly that the answer to the last question is clearly the word 'hui'. "
" "Remember clearly?" "
Qin Tian heard something intriguing in this sentence, raised his eyebrows and looked at Jiang San and asked: "What does it mean to remember clearly? Lantern riddles are all solved at the moment, when?Need to remember clearly? "
Faced with Qin Tian's questioning, Jiang San, who had lost his mind, suddenly calmed down, with a trace of panic and guilt flashing in his eyes.
"I watched a lot of lantern riddles before participating. Not books? Isn't this possible? "Jiang San shouted angrily.
"Really? Qin Tian still had a questioning look on his face, raised his eyebrows and asked, "Didn't you already read the answer before?" ”
Qin Tian felt strange before this. Jiang San answered the questions so fast. It was as if he knew the answer in advance.
Before others could even see clearly what the puzzle was, Jiang San had already told the answer, which made Qin Tian very puzzled.
Until now, Qin Tian had caught the answer from Jiang San’s eyes A fleeting trace of panic and guilt made Qin Tian more certain of his thoughts.
Jiang San became angry and shouted: "Stop talking nonsense here, I have been elected for five consecutive years. I am the champion of the lantern riddle competition, do I need to cheat? "
The group of idiot fans beside me also echoed aggressively.
"That's right, our Mr. Jiang is the most talented person in Chang'an City, how could he cheat! "
"You, a country boy, got an advantage here and still acted like a good boy, slandering our Mr. Jiang! "
"We Mr. Jiang answered twenty-eight lantern riddles correctly. He should have been the champion of this competition. Get out of here, you bastard! ”
“Yes, get out of here, you don’t deserve this brocade cassock.” "
With the support of this group of idiot fans, Jiang San became more confident. He straightened his back and pointed at Qin Tian, and said with an arrogant face: "Boy, I advise you to do it now." So get off here, or I'll be rude to you! "
Seeing that Jiang San was in a menacing manner and was threatening to snatch the cassock, the host quickly stepped forward to dissuade him and said:
" Mr. Jiang, this competition is sponsored by the Buddha of Merit. Prizes, you can’t break the rules. "
"Fuck you! "
Jiang San kicked the host to the ground and shouted angrily: "You're just a host, but you really think of yourself as a character. What the hell? "
After finishing speaking, Jiang pointed at Qin Tian with three fingers and gave orders to the guards accompanying him: "Go and grab the brocade cassock from him, be careful not to get it dirty! ”
Following Jiang San’s order, the four sturdy men rushed towards Qin Tian.
Upon seeing this, the host quickly got up from the ground, He grabbed Jiang San and persuaded him earnestly: "Master Jiang,, this is a lantern riddle competition. Aren't you afraid of being punished by the meritorious Buddha for robbing the cassock? "
Jiang San looked disdainful and snorted: "You said it yourself, the Buddha of Merit cannot come today. As long as the Buddha of Merit cannot come, it is not my decision! "
"Today this brocade cassock must be mine! "
"Bang bang bang..."
As soon as Jiang San finished speaking, there was a fierce fighting sound from the other side of the stage.
< br /> Jiang San smiled proudly, turned around with a sarcastic look on his face and said mockingly: "Young fool, you still dare to fight me? It’s really not...”
Halfway through his words, he discovered that the people on the stage who were staggering and falling were actually his guards, while Qin Tian was still standing intact.
“This…how is this possible? "Jiang San couldn't believe it, pointed at Qin Tian and said in surprise: "How can you, who are in the Return to Void Realm, defeat these guards like me? They are at the peak of human immortality! "
"It's just a few immortals in their prime, not enough to be beaten by debt collectors, hahaha..."
" Tieguai Li stood aside and laughed. .
Qin Tian also sarcastically said: "You, the unscrupulous guards, want to steal something from me? Who is overestimating one's own abilities? ”
“That’s unreasonable! "
Jiang San was so angry that he clenched his fists loudly, and his back molars were almost broken.
If it weren't for his poor cultivation, , Jiang San must have rushed forward at this time.
Suddenly, Jiang San smiled coldly, with a hint of chill hidden in his eyes.
“Oh, how many people can defeat me? A guard is nothing. If you have the ability, you can beat the next one! "
As he spoke, he took out a monkey hair from his storage ring and placed it in front of Qin Tian with a look of arrogance on his face.
"This But Monkey Hair, who has defeated the Buddha, if you obediently hand over your brocade cassock to me now, and then kowtow to me for mercy, I will spare your life today. "
"That...that's the Monkey Hair of the Great Sage. Is Jiang San crazy? "
"Run quickly, if the Great Sage comes out, we can't even think of leaving! "
"Run! "
Looking at the monkey hair in Jiang San's hand, everyone present felt a chill down their spines. They were so frightened that they fled in all directions, panicking. The scene was in chaos, lanterns were knocked down, and the fire spread instantly.
The host looked at the scene in front of him with a look of despair: "It's over, it's over, the lantern riddle competition is going to be ruined..."
Tieguai Li and Lu Dongbin looked at each other, and they could see nervous expressions in each other's eyes.
If Sun Wukong was here, Tieguai Li and Lu Dongbin would not panic. After all, they were all acquaintances.
But Sun Wukong’s monkey hair does not have the consciousness of Sun Wukong himself, and will only unilaterally obey the instructions of the person who summoned it.
Tieguai Li looked at Lu Dongbin and asked with a confused expression: "Brother Lu, what should we do? To fight or not to fight?"
Lu Dongbin looked solemn. , his brows were twisted like twists and turns: "Although it is just a monkey hair of the Great Sage, it has also inherited a lot of the Great Sage's cultivation. I am afraid that the two of us are no match."
"Furthermore, I'm worried that if we try our best, we will alarm the heaven, and then the Jade Emperor will know about our private activities in the lower world."
See Tieguai Li and Lu Dongbin showing nervous expressions , Jiang San smiled proudly: "What? Are you scared? I'll give you some time to think about it, but don't make me wait impatiently!"
Tieguai Li looked at the brocade cassock in Qin Tian's hand , then looked at the monkey hair in Jiang San's hand, with a tangled look on his face.
Seeing that the brocade cassock was about to be obtained, but this Jiang San was cruel and unreasonable, and even used Sun Wukong's monkey hair to snatch the prize from the conference, Tieguai Li felt very unwilling.
But no matter what, the opponent has Sun Wukong's monkey hair in his hand, and Qin Tian and the other three are not unable to fight head-on, but this will definitely alarm the Jade Emperor.
It’s not worth it.
Helpless, Tieguai Li looked at Qin Tian and asked unsteadily: "Debt collector, how about we..."
"No!"
Before Tieguai Li finished speaking, Qin Tian replied resolutely: "I won this, why should I give it to him, and why do you want me to kneel down and beg for mercy for him, is he worthy? "
After hearing this, Jiang looked ferocious and furious: "Very good, the bones are very hard. I want to see if your mouth can still be so hard later!"
"Wait a minute!"
Just when Jiang San was about to blow his breath at Monkey Feather, Qin Tian reached out to stop him.
"What? Are you afraid now?" Jiang San smiled coldly, his murderous intent becoming more intense: "But it's too late!"
Qin Tian jumped up holding the wooden box. He jumped up to Lu Dongbin and said, "No, I just want to introduce my identity to you. I am the debt collector from Heaven. This person next to me is my client. If you attack me now, you are just preventing me from using my debt." It’s over.”
“Heavenly debt collector? Hahahaha...”
Jiang San laughed as if he had heard some funny joke, and then he couldn't help laughing and said with a mocking look on his face: "I thought you were going to say what next, but this is it?"
" You are a debt collector from Heaven. To put it bluntly, you are just a bad debt collector. There are a lot of people like you in the bank, so don’t think that adding the title of ‘Heaven’ will make me afraid of you.”
"Don't say you are a debt collector from heaven. You are a debt collector from the three realms. I will kill you today!"
After the words fell, Jiang San blew out a breath of real energy. Monkey Feather transformed into a clone that looked exactly like Sun Wukong.
Wearing a purple gold crown with phoenix wings on her head, a tiger skin skirt around her waist, and a golden iron rod in her hand.
Even if it is just a clone of Sun Wukong, you can still feel a strong sense of oppression from the other party.
Jiang San looked like a dog fighting against the power of others, sneered twice, pointed his finger at Qin Tian and gave orders: "Great Sage, please help me kill these three guys, be careful not to let him get into your hands. The wooden box was broken."
"Okay! Boy, look at the stick!"
The clone couldn't help but rush towards Qin Tian with the iron rod in hand. The speed was extremely astonishing. Before the words were spoken, a figure had already appeared in front of Qin Tian.
When Qin Tian reacted, the wooden box in his hand was snatched away by the opponent. At the same time, the golden iron rod was less than one centimeter away from him.
“Debt collector!”
Without thinking, Tieguai Li pushed Qin Tian away, and at the same time, he raised his crutch to block it.
Bang!
There was a muffled sound in the air, and the next second Tieguai Li's body shot back like a cannonball.
“Brother Guaiguai Li!”
Lu Dongbin was shocked. He didn’t expect that just a clone of Sun Wukong could be so powerful. He even knocked away Tieguai Li with a stick. go out.
Lu Dongbin didn’t hesitate at all. He cast a spell and landed behind Tieguai Li, catching the opponent’s body firmly.
"Brother Lu, be careful!"
Before Tieguai Li could thank Lu Dongbin, he looked up and saw his clone flying towards him, raising the iron rod in his hand and about to drop it.
Lu Dongbin shook one hand, took out his sword, and raised his hand to block it.
Dang——! !
"So heavy!"
Lu Dongbin felt that his entire right hand was trembling, and the blade of the sword was trembling even more. He felt that the sword would not be able to hold up and break at any time. Average.
But Sun Wukong's clone's strength is really overbearing, and Lu Dongbin can't reverse the current situation at all. Whenever he releases the long sword in his hand, the iron rod will hit him head on.
"Brother Lu, let me help you!"
Tieguai Li rushed forward with his crutch in hand. Seeing this, he turned around to avoid the opponent's attack.
Although it did not cause any substantial harm to the clone, it could be regarded as rescuing Lu Dongbin from the predicament.
This was just a clone of Sun Wukong, and it was difficult for Tieguai Li and Lu Dongbin to resist.
If Sun Wukong comes in person, the difference in strength can be imagined.
Soon, the three of them got into a melee again, and the entire Chang'an Avenue became a battlefield for the three of them.
Jiang San stood aside very leisurely holding the wooden box that his clone had snatched. Looking at Tieguai Li and Lu Dongbin sweating profusely, he gloated and sarcastically said: "Huh, a lame man added A swordsman who wants to defeat the Great Sage's clone is really overestimating his own abilities."
Qin Tian was standing aside at this time, watching Sun Wukong's clone fighting inextricably with Tieguai Li and Lu Dongbin. .
The speed of the three of them was very fast, and the speed in their hands turned into afterimages, making it impossible to see the movements clearly.
Qin Tian couldn’t help but feel dumbfounded. He was indeed a famous figure in the God Realm. Their battles made people dare not join them casually.
Jiang San looked at Qin Tian standing alone in the corner with no intention of taking action. He couldn't help but sneered and said: "What? Wasn't it very arrogant at the beginning? Why don't you even dare to use your hands now?"< br />
"To put it bluntly, isn't he a waste? If I had known better, I would have handed the brocade cassock to me so directly. Now that the brocade cassock has fallen into my hands, the three of you are still going to die because of me. What a pity!"
Qin Tian couldn't help laughing and said lightly: "Who said I don't dare to take action?"
Qin Tian shook his right hand and turned it A rusty long sword came out.
“A rusty sword?” Jiang San frowned, and then sneered: “I thought you had any powerful abilities, but it turns out it’s just a rusty sword.”
< br /> Qin Tian smiled slyly, leaned forward slightly, and prepared himself to rush forward: "One rusty sword is enough!"
As soon as the words fell, Qin Tian's figure suddenly disappeared from the spot, Jiang San looked startled and looked around for Qin Tian.
The next second, a cold light suddenly fell from the sky. When he looked up, he saw Qin Tian holding a rusty sword and shooting it backwards, with the sharp blade facing his eyebrows.
Jiang San was suddenly struck by thisThe scene was so frightening that he collapsed on the ground with a thump, and shouted in panic: "Great Sage, help me!"
Whoosh——
In an instant, The clone fighting with Tieguai Li and Lu Dongbin suddenly appeared next to Jiang San and swung a stick upward.
Bang!
Qin Tian only felt that his entire right hand was about to be broken off. The Dragon Song Sword came out of his hand, and was then thrown ten meters away by the opponent's stick.
If Tieguai Li and Lu Dongbin hadn’t caught him in time, he might have flown out of Chang’an City.
“Debt collector, are you okay?” Tieguai Li asked with concern.
Qin Tian hid his trembling right hand behind his back and shook his head strong and calmly: "It's okay."
Then, Qin Tian looked at Jiang San standing in front of him The clone has a solemn look on his face.
I originally wanted to capture the thief first without using the power of the identity token.
But I didn’t expect the clone to be so fast, but it rushed back to Jiang San from more than ten meters away in an instant.
It seems that it is impossible not to use the power of identity tokens.
Jiang San stood up and looked at Qin Tian with eyes that seemed to burst out of fire.
"You little brat, you actually carried out a sneak attack. You are really despicable and shameless. Today I will crush your inner elixir to pieces, cut off your hands and feet and stuff them into a urinal. Otherwise, it will be difficult. Solve the hatred in my heart!"
Tieguai Li looked embarrassed, pulled Qin Tian and said: "Debt collector, why don't we withdraw first? The clone of the Great Sage is really powerful. This We don’t want the brocade cassocks.”
