But ask the people

Chapter 9



Chapter 9

Jiang Yi had already gone to the sword test arena the next day and after two rounds, Shen Chaosheng was long overdue.

Shen Chaosheng is still wearing a purple shirt today, but the style is different from yesterday, but the one thing is that this kind of clothes is not suitable for the competition.

After Jiang Yi told her about this concern, Shen Chaosheng teased him with a smile: "I won't participate."

"Why?"

"Ah... of course it's because I'm not very knowledgeable, so I can't beat this group of people."

Jiang Yi was very puzzled. The two competitions she had today ended in victory, and she didn't even make [-] moves. The victory was very easy.

Shen Chaosheng didn't take it seriously, he dragged her to find a good place to sit down, where he could see the sword testing platform, but there was no one around him.

Jiang Yi asked her: "You don't participate in the competition, are you here to watch the competition?"

Shen Chaosheng replied briefly: "No, I'm here to find someone."

Jiang Ye nodded, not saying anything.

The two sat side by side, watching the competitors on the sword-testing platform below make moves back and forth.

Shen Chaosheng suddenly said: "Why don't you and I make another bet."

Jiang Yi was a little vigilant: "What are you going to bet on?"

"It's a bet."

Shen Chaosheng raised his chin and pointed to a part of the sword-testing platform: "Here, look, those are the disciples of Bailing Pavilion and Fu Tianji's disciples. Who do you think will win?"

Jiang Yi followed her gaze, and the two looked on par. The person from Bailing Pavilion was more defensive, while the person from Fu Tianji was better at pulling. It was really hard to tell the winner.

"Bai Yiyi, do you really want to do this?"

The man among them was a little helpless, dodging the opponent's attack, and then swung the sword from the side, but it was obviously not strong enough to hurt the opponent in the slightest.

And the disciple named Bai Yiyi seemed a little angry: "It's fine if you don't come to Changzhou Mountain with me, what's going on with your senior sister?"

The man was helpless: "The master's school stipulates that I was taken away by them before I could tell you."

Bai Yiyi said: "Xu Jicheng, I'm not finished with you!"

Shen Chaosheng glanced at it with great interest, and said first, "I guess, the female disciple of Bailing Pavilion will win."

Jiang Yi was silent for a moment, and retorted, "I bet on the secret."

Shen Chaosheng asked: "Why, because he is a man?"

Jiang Yi shook his head, and replied, "His swordsmanship is obviously better."

Shen Chaosheng smiled and said: "Jiang Yi, I know you can see their roots, but sometimes, you can't just look at these."

Sure enough, without ten moves, Fu Tianji's Xu Jicheng sighed helplessly, and said indulgently, "I admit defeat."

Then he stepped off the stage and chased after Bai Yiyi, coaxing him: "I was wrong, I shouldn't know you, you are late for the points you haven't got these days, use my points to make up for you, okay?"

Only then did Bai Yiyi bend his eyes and said, "That's about the same."

……

Jiang Yi has stayed in the mountains for more than ten years, and he really didn't expect this kind of situation.

She said in a clear voice, "I didn't think carefully."

Although Shen Chaosheng guessed right this time with his proficiency in the world, in the next month, nearly [-]% of the guesses were made by Jiang Yi, because Shen Chaosheng always deliberately avoided being the same as her choice.

At the end, Shen Chaosheng murmured to himself: "We should set up a betting field, otherwise we will make a fortune for nothing."

Jiang Yi bent his eyes and looked at her without saying anything, but looked very happy.

Later in the second month, Jiang Yi had already obtained the promotion points, so he sat with Shen Chaosheng to watch the battle all day long, analyzing sword moves and betting on who would win.

But the difference was that in the second month, Shen Chaosheng had a few more golden copper coins in his hand.

Every time a bet is won or lost, Shen Chaosheng will pretend to toss copper coins casually, and then tell Jiang Yi who she wants to bet on first.

"I bet the one in white on the left wins."

Jiang Yi glanced at her, feeling very helpless at her competitive spirit, and said, "I also bet on the person on the left to win."

"I bet that the Yunqingmen disciples will win."

"I bet on the left."

"The one on the left is Yunqingmen."

"..."

After gambling like this for a few days, Jiang Yi found that her calculations were more accurate than his own.

Jiang Yi guessed that there was a mystery in her copper coin, and asked, "Are you also good at divination?"

Shen Chaosheng looked idle, and nodded casually: "Yes, why did you say so?"

Jiang Yi said: "I once met a man whose hexagrams seemed to be very famous."

Shen Chaosheng continued to ask: "Who is it?"

As far as Shen Chaosheng knew, there were not many people who knew this kind of thing, but Jiang Yi just mentioned that person.

"Trace."

"..."

Shen Chaosheng raised his forehead, lamenting how small the world is.

Among the guest qings in their family, there happened to be this close junior brother of Su who counted all over the world.

People in the world only trace, but don't know Hui, the relationship between Suhui and Suhui is unique in the world.

The two of them didn't know why they were angry, and finally Hui hurriedly left to find the Shen family's home, leaving Su to wander around the world by himself.

Shen Chaosheng didn't care and said, "Su, you've worked hard."

Jiang Yi: "..."

It wasn't until the last day of the preliminary exam that the bet between the two finally became different.

This time it was two casual cultivators.

One of them has no soul, and the other's sword is very old, but it is extremely sharp.

It is rare for the two of them to disagree.

Jiang Yi said: "The man in green on the left has strong bones and has been practicing for at least seven years. Although he is not from the world of cultivating immortals, the man on the right is not his opponent at all."

Shen Chaosheng originally agreed with her words, because winning or losing was obvious, but she still habitually gave up, but the result was just the opposite.

"..."

"What's wrong?" Jiang Yi asked aloud when she saw that she hadn't moved.

Shen Chaosheng followed the hexagram and said, "I bet on the person on the right."

Jiang Yi raised his eyebrows and said, "Okay."

She thinks that this is a contest without any suspense, at most thirty moves will definitely end.

But the result was unexpected. The man on the right used fifteen moves to defeat the casual cultivator who had practiced for seven years.

Jiang Yi's eyes froze, and Shen Chaosheng's gaze also fell on the man on the right.

For some reason, Jiang Yi always felt that she was wrong, and she found that the person on the right seemed to have a spiritual breath.

A small episode, in the end today Shen Chaosheng won.

Shen Chaosheng teased her and said, "You guessed wrong, don't you feel lost?"

Jiang Yi had no choice but to ask, "Do I still make few wrong bets?"

From the time he met Shen Chaosheng, from the competition at the beginning to the outcome of the bet later, what Jiang Yiguang saw with his eyes was naturally not as accurate as Shen Chaosheng's hexagrams.

Shen Chaosheng said: "From tomorrow, there will be a ten-day break until the retest. What are your plans?"

After thinking carefully, Jiang Yi gave a firm answer: "Practice the sword."

Although Shen Chaosheng already knew Jiang Yi, he still said helplessly: "Ah Yi, can we change the way of rest."

Jiang Yi was puzzled, and said: "I have been watching the battle for several months, and I also want to consolidate my sword skills."

Seeing that the persuasion was fruitless, Shen Chaosheng changed his approach: "Tomorrow there will be a lantern festival at the foot of Changzhou Mountain, do you want to go and see it with me?"

For a person who often lives in the mountains, even a boring swordsman like Jiang Yi has to admit that she suddenly wants to join in the fun.

Especially when Shen Chaosheng said that there was an auction for the sword shop.
