Chapter 102 Appearance

At the same time, the martial arts industry is full of gold and jade.

Early in the morning, many martial arts gym owners came to the hall to wait. However, what they were waiting for was completely unexpected news.

"What, the government didn't ban the outsider from competing, but instead sent a letter inviting the three major concessions to participate?"

"And the governor also asked us to cooperate and not to interfere?"

"This this"

Seeing Ouyang Heng reporting the news to everyone, everyone at the table was in an uproar. They did not expect that things would change like this.

Huang Liger's face was solemn:

"That's unreasonable. What is that governor doing? No matter how much trouble we make behind closed doors, it's our own business. If he brought those foreign devils here, isn't he afraid that the foreigners will be defeated in the ring and embarrass Jinjin as a whole?"

Zheng Shanao held the cigarette rod and laughed with expectation:

"Master Huang, have you forgotten that even we can't do anything about the supernatural power of the afterlife? It's just a bunch of foreign devils who practice a bunch of random things here and there. Is it possible that they can be more powerful than me? Let me see, this guy The governor's arrangement is a stroke of genius, and it can be used to severely kill the prestige of those foreigners and earn back some dignity for the country and even for the Han people in the world!"

"That makes sense."

The gray-haired Ouyang Heng muttered:

"The gods of Luoshae and even Rizhao follow our example in the division of cultivation. Anyone below the seventh realm may not be able to withstand the three punches of the young foreigner. I just don't know if there are top seventh realms among their garrison. Master, if they don't send out such people without shame, it will be troublesome."

"What if we send out the top masters from the Seven Realms?"

Zheng Shan laughed proudly and said:

"Not to mention whether they have the shame to let such beings take the ring, that young man is only in his early twenties, and even after that, he will not have any glory at all. Instead, we can say that they bully the small and have no shame. Just suffer a loss!"

Everyone in the audience's eyes brightened when they heard this, and they all nodded.

The great thing about the arena set up by Lu Yuan was that he was too young, and it was based on receiving three punches instead of a formal competition.

This maximizes the advantage of his unparalleled divine power. As long as the three major powers come to participate, they will most likely suffer big losses without knowing it.

The great powers trample and seize the concessions with their iron hoofs, and those who practice martial arts are full of righteousness and will be ashamed of themselves. Although the failure of the martial arts for two consecutive days made people angry, the thought that those foreign devils would also fall into the hands of Lu Yuan made the attitude of these martial arts masters change and they became expectant.

"All right!"

Saying that, Zheng Shanao suddenly stood up, smiled and said loudly:

"Everyone, today's excitement is no small matter. If you arrive late, let alone the ring, I'm afraid you won't be able to squeeze in even at Haihe Square. I'll go first!"

With that said, he walked straight off the stage and walked out of the hall.

"What Mr. Zheng said is that there are probably many times more people coming to see the excitement today than yesterday!"

"Hurry up, hurry up, hurry up, there won't be a good seat if you get there late!"

"I want to see if those foreign devils dare to come!"

Behind him, a group of martial arts masters and even disciples stood up and responded. Following Zheng Shanao, they came out of the hall full of gold and jade and rushed towards Haihe Square.

Including Huang Shihu, who had always been brooding about his defeat, he also sighed and followed the other elders out.

at the same time.

Above Haihe Square.

Although there are still an hour or two before noon, there are already a large number of busy people in the square at this moment, hoping to get a good seat in advance.

There were at least two to three thousand people who arrived in advance, especially the area around the ring, which was already packed with people. Men, women, old and young were all talking with excitement and anticipation:

"This is the third day of the stranger's showdown. I wonder if someone will take action today?"

"I'm disgusted. There have been several martial arts masters in the past two days, but the outsider didn't even throw the third punch. How can any master come on stage and humiliate himself?"

"But, among the martial arts, isn't there a martial arts master?"

"Are you kidding? What kind of person is Mr. Wu Taidou? Moreover, at nearly seventy years old, what does it look like for him to come to the ring to receive three punches from a junior? Even if everything happens, others will only take it for granted, and maybe not People will criticize you.”

"That means if you say that, there won't be much to see today?"

"That's not necessarily true. Have you heard about it? It is said that the government sent a letter to the three major concessions early this morning, inviting the masters of the foreign devils to come here to watch the ceremony and participate in the competition!"

"Hey, what a great idea! These foreign devils are always arrogant and arrogant in Jinjin. They talk about the sick man of Jin Dynasty at every turn. If he comes to compete, he can see how powerful our Han family is!"

"However, I heard that the Japanese troops stationed in the concession are all elites, and there are many top experts. Can the outsiders take care of them all? If they fail in the arena, wouldn't it be even more disrespectful to their dignity?"

"Probably not. After all, the foreigner has defeated so many martial arts masters. Those foreign masters cannot be more powerful than them."

The crowd gathered more and more, and all kinds of discussions were raging. They were all talking about the invitation from the government and whether the masters from the three major concessions in Shenluo Shae and Rizhao would come.

And in a teahouse next to the square.

The third floor has been reserved, and the powerful bosses with bulging bags on their waists have blocked the stairs.

Sitting by the window, the deputy leader of the Cao Gang, Deng Xiaolin, had his upper body covered with bandages and a large cloak. His face was pale and gloomy, and he looked at the leader in front of him:

"What, people from the government will also be present today? And foreign experts from the three major concessions are invited?"

"Where did this news come from?"

The two bosses in front of them said quickly:

"Yes, Gang Leader Deng, this news is absolutely true. Fan Dusi personally sent someone to deliver it, asking us in the Cao Gang not to make any changes, let alone harm the outsider, otherwise we will be questioned."

"He said that the decision was made by Governor Qi Yuanjiang. He sent a letter to the three major concessions early this morning. In it, the Shenluo people made it clear that they would come to participate at noon, and that Fu Cheng Liu Guobai and himself would personally be present to supervise the decision."

"Look, what about later?"

After hearing this, Deng Xiaolin's eyes burned with anger and his face turned extremely ugly:

"Bastard thing."

He has prepared the gunman and the scapegoat. When Lu Yuan takes the stage again today, he will send the other party on his way to wash away the shame of yesterday.

However, this sudden change of situation completely interrupted his plan, making him feel too scared to take action.

after all.

Now it is obvious that the government wants to use Lu Yuan to make a fuss about regaining face from the great powers. If he dares to take advantage of the situation at this time, he will definitely offend the government to death. Even the big Cao Gang may not be able to save him!

When he thought of this, Deng Xiaolin could only give up temporarily and gritted his teeth and said:

"Tell the people below to stay put for now and save that little beast's life until today is over!"

"Yes!"

The two leaders also breathed a sigh of relief, quickly agreed, and then went downstairs to convey the order.

And that was before they could recall all the gunmen hidden in the crowd. Tap tap tap tap

Suddenly there was a burst of footsteps and noise in the square.

Then, at the entrance of the square, thousands of officers and soldiers carrying muskets arrived in a dark pressure. Then, under the scolding of the team leader, they forcibly opened a passage for people and horses to pass through the avenue and even the square, leading directly to the central arena.

Including the busybodies who had occupied their seats in advance and gathered around the ring, they were also driven away by this large group of officers and soldiers, leaving a large open space.

Later, some officials carried tables, chairs and benches and walked in through the passage opened by the officers and soldiers. They placed the Eight Immortals table and more than ten seats directly opposite the ring, and even teapots and cups were provided.

Later, Liu Guobai, who was wearing a dark red official robe, also led a group of staff and translators to enter the venue, and sat down in advance to wait.

Seeing this battle, the separated people around them became even more excited and expectant:

"Isn't this the Prime Minister Liu Guobai, the governor's right-hand man? He's even here, it seems the news is correct!"

"Isn't the seat next to it reserved for those foreign devils?"

"It goes without saying that it is! There will be great fun soon. I hope that foreigner will not embarrass us Jinjin!"

As the officers and soldiers arrived, the atmosphere obviously heated up. At the same time, because the time was approaching, a large number of people and good people came from various streets happily and continuously.

A large number of people from all directions gathered and first formed a sea of ​​​​people in the square, and then quickly spread and blocked the streets around Haihe Square.

It's obviously not yet noon, but Haihe Square and the surrounding area for nearly a mile are already crowded and overcrowded. The number of people here has reached 50,000 to 60,000, and it is even rising!

Had it not been for the presence of thousands of officers and soldiers with live ammunition and ammunition to maintain order, chaos would have occurred at the scene.

It is in such a scene.

Many masters from martial arts, the Golden Sword Regiment, and even various forces of all sizes came to the ring before the crowd reached its peak, and were amazed by it.

At the front of the crowd, Zheng Shanao glanced around and sighed:

"I have never seen such a grand event in all the years I have been in Jinjin. If the young man today can successfully defeat the challengers from the great powers, maybe he will be remembered in history!"

On the side, Huang Lihu was still very unconvinced and snorted coldly:

"Even if you defeat a few foreign masters, it's nothing. How can you leave your name in history?"

Knowing that he was still unhappy, Zheng Shan smiled proudly and said nothing, obviously having great confidence in Lu Yuan.

Include the other side.

Among the crowd, Lin Xingchao, who had arrived early, looked at this situation and said helplessly:

"Master Gu, is this scene you and A Yuan caused too much trouble? Is there really no problem?"

Next to him, Gu Kanshan laughed:

"Don't worry. You have never fought against that kid Lu Yuan. His strength is not inferior even to the top masters of the Seven Realms. Those foreigners will end up with the same fate no matter what master they send. I believe that he will be able to do it today. Promote the power of our country and nation!”

"Ugh"

Lin Xingchao is still worried:

"Foreigners have wild ambitions. Even if A Yuan defeats all future challengers today, he may arouse jealousy and revenge and put himself in danger. This is what I'm worried about."

Gu Kanshan shook his head and said: "How can we achieve great things if we are too timid to establish a dynasty? With Lu Yuan's ability, as long as he doesn't go to the battlefield, who can do anything to him?"

"makes sense."

At this point, there was no other way. Although Lin Xingchao was still worried, he could only wait silently.

Then, not long after.

Noon has officially arrived.

Suddenly, a clear gong sound resounded throughout the square, and tens of thousands of people were waiting in anticipation. Some people saw several figures appearing at the end of the passage isolated by officers and soldiers in the sea of ​​people.

The leaders were Lu Yuan and Fan Zhenxiong, the governor of Jinjin.

Step, step, step.

There was a roar of people and countless eyes gathered. Fan Zhenxiong and his soldiers personally led the way. With a calm expression and steady steps, Lu Yuan walked through the passage and arrived in front of the central arena under the attention of everyone and the excitement.

The reason why he appeared with Fan Zhenxiong is also very simple.

On the surface, Fan Zhenxiong is the Jinjin Dusi and the general in charge of the local army, but his actual identity is the direct disciple of Gu Kanshan and a remnant of the Shengping Heavenly Kingdom!

It was this person who advised Qi Yuanjiang as an insider, and Gu Kanshan's plan to blend with Lu Yuan was successfully realized.

Come to the center arena.

"Sure enough, young people bring out talents!"

In the crowd of thousands of people, sitting in the audience, Liu Guobai, who saw Lu Yuan for the first time, suddenly stood up to greet him, with a slightly startled look on his face:

"I am Liu Guobai, the Prime Minister of Jinjin. I never thought that Brother Lu is so young. Are you sure about today's competition?"

Lu Yuan just smiled: "Of course, otherwise I wouldn't have appeared here. Where are the people from the three major concessions?"

Liu Guobai still looked up and down:

"Foreigners are all barbarians who don't know etiquette. It's common to be late. I have received the news that they have been setting off from the concession consulate for a while, and they will probably arrive here soon. But who will participate in the fight is still unclear. It’s not clear, so you must be careful.”

Fan Zhenxiong also had complicated eyes and said expectantly: "Lu Yuan, I'll leave the rest to you."

"it is good."

With that said, Lu Yuan nodded, and then stepped onto the ring unhurriedly.

Liu Guobai hesitated to speak, but sat back on his seat.

Excitement, anticipation, admiration, envy.

Thousands of eyes gathered, and the crowd in the audience was furious. Some passionate people could not help but shout loudly, cheering Lu Yuan in advance:

"Lu Yuan, if the foreign devils in the concession dare to come, beat them down and carry them away without mercy!"

"Yes, our defeat on the battlefield has been disastrous and humiliating. We must not be defeated in the arena!"

"The foreign devils are tyrannical in Jinjin, we must take a breath for us and avenge our shame!"

"If you can do it, I will let my sister marry you!"

The shouts were loud and loud, but Lu Yuan just responded with a smile on the stage.

This time, there was no need to use the words "Invincible Divine Fist, No. 1 in Tianjin" to attract hatred, and there was no need to use 50,000 silver dollars as a gimmick. He just stood on the stage silently, feeling the unprecedented feeling in the dark. Great luck is brewing and emerging.

This gathering and change of luck is far more severe than the previous two days. It is obviously because this move of inviting the great powers to challenge has hit the pain points and expectations in the hearts of thousands of Jinjin people. Today, we only need to defeat all the great powers' challenges. Otherwise, he will definitely spread his name to the world and gain unprecedented good luck!

Just like that, while he waited silently, under the heated discussion of the crowd in the audience.

Not long after, the sound of a whistle came from the end of the square passage, and a group of steam convoys with black smoke and different flags tied to the fronts of the cars stopped.

"The Shinra Consulate, the Shah Consulate, and the Rizhao Consulate are here—!"

Amidst the chants of the officials, groups of Shinra, Shae, and Rizhao people with different appearances, temperaments, and even costumes, with the same contempt or scornful smiles on their faces, got out of the car and stepped onto the passage, heading towards the central arena. Go.
