Almighty Goddess of Rebirth

Chapter 85 I want to challenge
Probably hearing the voices of the two, an old woman walked out from the open door of the wooden house. Her hair was full of silver frost, and although her face was full of wrinkles, her eyes were shining brightly, without any signs of aging. Huang Shaoxia's time lit up again, "Xia'er?"

Huang Shaoxia hurried over and said, "Grandma! I'm back!"

In Lu Chaochao's ears, the voice that seemed a bit rough on weekdays was obviously cheerful and charming.

"Grandma, I brought my friends over to play." Although Huang Shaoxia was very happy to see her family, she was not so happy that she forgot Lu Chaochao.

The old woman turned her gaze over, and was obviously taken aback when she saw Lu Chaochao.

"Grandma, her name is Lu Chaochao." After seeing the old woman, Huang Shaoxia obviously became more talkative. She not only introduced Lu Chaochao in detail, but also talked to the old woman about the process of getting acquainted with Lu Chaochao and some things in school. matter.

The old woman put away her gaffe very quickly, and nodded kindly to Lu Chaochao with a smile, "You are Xia'er's friend, so treat this place as your own home..." She paused suddenly, but saw Lu Chaochao's whole body. Where does the temperament look like an ordinary person?

Seeing this, Lu Chaozhao naturally knew what the old lady was thinking, "My hometown is also a small village, so grandma doesn't have to worry."

The old woman smiled even deeper when she was called by her title, "Okay, okay, then stay here! At night, go to the village with Xia'er to join in the fun!"

Lu Chaochao thought to himself, I just came here to join in the fun, so of course I'm going.

This village hidden deep in the mountain is called Huangjia Village. From Huang Shaoxia's mouth, I learned that her ancestors were knights in the rivers and lakes. Later, because of the war, they fled here and lived in seclusion. Gradually, they multiplied and became a village. The tradition has also been handed down, but due to the impact of the war, many orthodox martial arts are incomplete, and coupled with the poor foundation of the children, it has only been reduced to the point of strengthening the body, but for these people who live and work in peace and contentment now , is enough.

As Lu Chaochao expected, Huang Shaoxia had indeed practiced martial arts.Her upbringing experience was somewhat tortuous. Her father was originally the curator of the martial arts gym in the village. Once he went out and brought back his wife and mother-in-law who married outside, and lived in Huangjia Village. Not long after Huang Shaoxia was born, her father disappeared in the back mountain Traces, the mother was in poor health, and passed away soon after worrying and exhausting, leaving only one old and one young in a good family.

Huang Shaoxia's grandmother is capable, raised her granddaughter alone, and also provided for her to study. Huang Shaoxia also lived up to her expectations and became the only child in the village who was admitted to a key middle school.

It's just that because Huang's father disappeared and there was no one in the family, the grandparent and grandson were naturally isolated in a vague way. People with long tongues also said that Huang's father was not missing but ran away.

The purpose of Huang Shaoxia's return this time is that Huangjia Village will hold an annual martial arts competition tonight to elect a new director of the martial arts gym. Huang Shaoxia just turned 16 this year and has reached the age to participate in the martial arts competition.

Although Huang Shaoxia didn't say anything, Lu Chaochao also knew that she attached great importance to this martial arts competition. If she guessed correctly, Huang Shaoxia still had the heart to make those who gossip about her shut up obediently.

The old lady carefully prepared the meals, although they were only rural dishes, but her heart was rare.After Lu Chaochao finished eating to his heart's content, he and Huang Shaoxia went to the center of the village, where a simple wooden platform had been set up. In front of the wooden platform was a pile of tall bonfires, and the whole village was extremely lively.

Following Huang Shaoxia, Lu Chaochao noticed that many of the people who looked at her seemed to be very curious about her, but I don't know if it was because of Huang Shaoxia, no one came close to her, they just looked at her from time to time.

A big drum was set up on the stage, and after being signaled by a shirtless man, he slammed it down a few times——

"Boom—boom—boom boom boom boom..."

The noisy scene suddenly fell silent, an old man with white beard and hair stood on the wooden platform, looked around, and said slowly, "The competition is held every three years, not only to select the director of our village's martial arts gym, It is also to test whether everyone has put in the effort..."

Naturally, the people in Huangjia Village couldn't be more clear about this martial arts competition, so the old man came down after saying some words of encouragement, and then two men in their [-]s and [-]s came up to the stage, all of them were muscular and imposing, As soon as the two met, they hit each other very quickly.

Seeing Lu Chaochao's puzzled face, Huang Shaoxia said in a deep voice, "Compared by age group, the younger ones are behind."

That's right, it's fair that the big won't bully the small.

It's just that since the curator is selected, how can the age be limited to only 16 years old?
"These people are for the curator's competition, and there are only two or three references. It won't take long to determine the candidate. The subsequent competitions are just for everyone to learn from each other. Most of the young people's competitions can only be regarded as sideshows."

After watching Huang Shaoxia finish speaking, Lu Chaochao said, "Then you—"

Before he could finish speaking, a sound of "OK!" came from next to him, almost piercing his eardrums. Lu Chaochao turned his head and saw that the old man was already standing on the stage, and next to him was a sweaty, panting man. From the words of others, Lu Chaochao knew that this was the winner.

The old man was also affected by the atmosphere at this moment, his face turned red, and he said loudly, "Okay, now I announce that this year's martial arts director will be—"

"Wait!"

Lu Chaochao was startled, and turned his head to look at Huang Shaoxia who was still expressionless. At this moment, there was firmness and determination in her eyes.

Under the surprised and puzzled eyes of the crowd, Huang Shaoxia walked slowly towards the wooden platform, and the crowd unconsciously gave way.

Lu Chaochao originally thought that Huang Shaoxia's plan was to defeat all her peers, but she never expected that she would actually challenge the newly elected curator.

Regardless of her age or her outward aura, Huang Shaoxia was unbearably weak.

The old man frowned, obviously dissatisfied with her interrupting his words, but he couldn't argue with a little girl, so he said patiently, "Girl Xia, what do you want?"

Huang Shaoxia had already stepped onto the stage, and in the eyes of everyone, she said, "I want to challenge!"

For a while, the audience was silent, everyone looked at her like a fool, and some thought she was joking.

"Shaoxia, come down quickly! You young people will compete later!"

"Yes! Did you remember the wrong order?"

"Village Chief, please announce quickly, that girl may be confused."

Huang Shaoxia still stood there, calmly said, "I'm not joking, I want to challenge him."

Everyone was still discussing, and the winning man became impatient, "All right, if you challenge, you will challenge. Village chief, go down first, and I will teach this girl a lesson. You will suffer if you don't know the heights of heaven and earth..."
