Chapter 354 She Smiled Unkindly (Additional Update)
He had a stern face and took out the small chessboard he carried with him from behind. He looked solemn and serious, as if he was going to use all his life's knowledge to win this game.
Xuanyuan Yi sat opposite him.
He plays with white pieces, Xia Ziyu plays with black pieces, and black pieces go first.
The little guy was very cautious and made conservative moves, while Xuanyuan Yi was calm and composed, played chess with a very fierce and decisive style. In just a few moves, he killed the black chess pieces without leaving a single piece behind, and the black army was completely defeated.
The black chess pieces were being eaten away one by one, but Xia Ziyu didn't want to admit defeat. Until the last piece fell and the outcome was decided, his little body drooped his head.
“I lost!”
He had already taken out the move he thought had the best chance of winning. He had never seen Uncle Xuanyuan play chess before, and he didn't expect that he was such a hidden talent.
I was careless.
Xia Ziyu quickly raised her head and said, "It doesn't matter if I lose today. I will win back one day."
He packed up his chessboard and stepped aside.
Xia Zichuan stood up and said, "Uncle Xuanyuan, I want to compete with you in pitching pots. We will both be blindfolded. There are ten arrows in total. Whoever throws the most arrows in will win."
"If we both put in the same amount, I win."
He set the distance for Xuanyuan Yi to toss the pot: three meters.
However, the distance he set for himself for throwing the pot was less than ten feet.
He patted Xuanyuan Yi's shoulder confidently and said in an adult tone: "Uncle Xuanyuan, it doesn't matter if my brother loses to you, but I will definitely beat you!"
You should know that the game he was best at was touhu (pitching pot), and he was even better at cuju (cuju).
The onlookers began to watch with great interest, joining in the fun and observing from close range. Soon the entire courtyard was packed with people.
They had seen the bride's brothers and sisters blocking the door, but they had never seen the brothers and sisters not blocking the door, but the nephew came out to block the door.
Everyone found it very interesting and funny to see the three little ones putting in so much effort.
Under normal circumstances, Xia Zichuan would definitely not be able to defeat Xuanyuan Yi. He was very clear about how much he weighed compared to Xuanyuan Yi.
So he deliberately increased the distance between the two sides in throwing the pot.
As long as Uncle Xuanyuan votes for the wrong one, he will definitely lose.
It doesn’t matter even if he puts it all in, as long as I can put it all in, I still win.
Thinking of this, Xia Zichuan laughed and started shooting arrows, ten to each person.
Xuanyuan Yi covered his eyes with red silk.
A person stood outside the red silk, holding a pair of scissors, concentrating and holding his breath. The originally chaotic environment instantly became quiet.
Everyone's eyes were fixed on the two people in the yard, one big and one small, with great interest in their eyes. They all wanted to know who would win and who would lose in the end.
If it were before, Xuanyuan Yi would definitely not be sure of winning, after all, the chaotic sounds around him really made it difficult for him to hear the sounds and determine the location.
But since he became blind once, he has been able to completely block out these noises.
An arrow was thrown out and landed accurately in a bamboo tube three meters away.
Then the second one was thrown out.
Little Xia Zichuan also hit several arrows in a row and was feeling happy. But when he saw Uncle Xuanyuan next to him throwing arrows one after another and hitting the target every time, he couldn't help but panic. His hand lost its balance and he threw an arrow that went astray.
The arrow brushed against the bamboo tube and fell to the ground.
The three little ones who were originally waiting for their Uncle Xuanyuan to be defeated wilted in an instant.
Xuanyuan Wu and Xuanyuan Feng, who came to pick up the bride, immediately laughed unkindly. "You little brat, you actually wanted to compete with their younger brother in pitching pots? You just overestimated your own abilities."
Their younger brothers could shoot people's heads with bows, and they were always accurate, almost never missing.
It is simply impossible to defeat him with this.
Seeing his two brothers defeated, Xia Zibo clenched his fists and said to Xia Qingyu, who was watching the excitement from the side: "Uncle, you go! No matter what, we must defeat him."
The two little ones, who had already lost, cast their expectant gazes directly on Xia Qingyu.
Xia Qingyu originally wanted to make things difficult for Xuanyuan Yi, but he was just behind her. She didn't expect that she would be pushed out by her nephew.
Okay, it's the same in the morning and at night.
He has been preparing for today for more than half a month, and he will definitely not lose to that brat Xuanyuan Yi.
We can't let him marry my younger sister easily. The easier it is to get something, the less likely he is to cherish it.
Although he knew that Xuanyuan Yi's feelings for his younger sister were genuine, he still had to let him know that his younger sister had the support of her family.
He took a step forward and faced Xuanyuan Yi with a bright look: "Brother Yi, I'm not going to compete with you in fighting or questioning. Let's compete in identifying medicinal herbs. There are ten kinds of herbs in total. Whoever can identify them all will lose if they misidentify even one. If both of us can identify all of them, I still win!"
The rules are similar to those of touhu, but it is much more difficult than touhu.
Xia Qingyu took a bag from her waist and said, "There are ten kinds of medicinal herbs in it. Let's let Brother Duan be the referee!"
Duan Yu walked out of the crowd with a smile and took the bag directly.
"Prince of Zhennan, I was entrusted by the Third Young Master Xia, so I will definitely not let you go. Whether you can finally win her heart depends on your own ability."
Xuanyuan Yi's eyes flickered when he heard this: "Wait a minute, Qingyu knows all the medicinal herbs in this bag. It's not difficult to identify them!"
"To be fair, I need to replace two herbs from here, but I can guarantee that I will not replace them with rare herbs."
Duan Yu turned his gaze directly to Xia Qingyu.
Xia Qingyu obviously hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded.
Xuanyuan Yi directly asked Liuxing to get the things.
At the beginning of the competition, each person had a pen and paper in front of them, and ten kinds of medicinal herbs were placed on the table. Whoever could write them out in order first and write them correctly would win.
Xuanyuan Yi was the first to put down his pen and paper.
Xia Qingyu hesitated for a moment over the two herbs that Xuanyuan Yi asked Liuxing to replace. After all, he didn't know much about herbs, and all the knowledge he had was taught by Duan Yu in the past half month. So when he saw Platycodon grandiflorum and Peucedanum chinense, which were similar in color and shape, he was immediately stumped.
Unable to tell the difference, Xia Qingyu decided to take a gamble and wrote down the answer directly on a piece of paper.
The crowd watching the excitement were also very nervous.
Only Xia Xing'er, who was using her spiritual sense to observe everything in the room, saw all of this. She smiled unkindly.
"Although I stand on the side of Third Young Master Xia, I still declare, as a doctor, that the Prince of Zhennan wins this round!"
Duan Yu still announced the answer.
