Chapter 31 Track I heard that you told everyone that I was dead...
The battle ended without any suspense.
As Yue Ji finished his move, the city lord fell face first onto the ground and fell at Qi Qing's feet.
"Qian people..."
He raised his head with a wronged look, his eyes were bruised and the corners of his mouth were bruised, he looked so pitiful.
Qi Qing kindly called out to the servants who were afraid to step forward, "The fight is over. Come quickly and carry your city lord to apply medicine."
The servants hurried forward and lifted up the city lord with all their might. The city lord stretched out his hands tremblingly, as if he wanted to struggle again: "Benefactor, I can still hold on..."
“Pah.”
The young man passed by him without even looking at him, and casually pushed the city lord's hand back.
"Master." Yue Ji stood in front of the young man, his cold face instantly melted away, and his tone contained a barely perceptible expectation: "I won."
Qi Qing had seen enough of the show, and finally decided to close her clothes again and stand up straight.
He curled his lips, stroked Yue Ji's head with one hand, and praised him in a gentle voice: "Good boy."
Yue Ji grabbed the hand above his head and pressed it against his face, looking at him with bright eyes.
Qi Qing seemed to see an invisible tail wagging behind him. He smiled and took the boy's hand and walked towards the hall. His voice became lower and vague, sinking into the darkness.
"Come, Master will give you a little reward..."
…
The next day was a sunny day.
The sky was clear and the sun shone into the house, making the young man's thin back hot.
Qi Qing didn't open his eyes, turned over, subconsciously reached out and scratched twice, pulled the quilt over his head, and continued to sleep soundly.
Almost half an hour later, he suddenly opened his eyes and sat up from the bed.
——No, it seems that today's alchemy competition is the preliminary round? !
[Finally woke up, has anyone counted how long the anchor slept? ]
[Five hours and a quarter, without waking up in the middle, are all the monks in the lower world so lazy now? ]
[What's wrong with watching a sleeping anchor? The poor kid has been tortured all night and has to get up early to compete. ]
【The cub is now emotionally stable.】
Qi Qing was frantically putting on clothes. He caught a glimpse of the comments floating by and was immediately shocked: "The live broadcast can be turned on automatically?"
[…Is it possible that you opened it yourself last night?]
[We broadcasted for eight hours, and we slept for five of them. Do you know how we spent those five hours? ]
Qi Qing was stunned and said uncertainly: "Last night... I was drunk and instigated the city lord and Yue Ji to fight?"
[Do you still remember? ]
【More than that. 】
It doesn't look good.
Qi Qingchen said painfully, "I can't possibly beat up the city lord, right?"
Then he will most likely be kicked out.
【Think about it again? 】
Could it be worse?
Qi Qing made a bitter face and tried to recall for a long while before saying, "I remember now. Yue Ji won the fight and the city lord was carried away... then what?"
He couldn't remember anything about what happened afterwards. He sniffed his clothes and didn't smell any alcohol. If it weren't for his slightly hoarse voice, he would have thought it was all a dream.
[The kid won. He wanted to sleep next to you, but you refused.]
"That's it."
Qi Qing immediately felt relieved: "You don't need to notify me again for such a small matter."
[Zi also changed your outer clothes and wiped your hands and face. What about you? 】
[You turned evil into kindness. You coaxed the baby into bed and sang him a lullaby for three hours. Three hours! That was three hours!]
? ?
Qi Qing's eyes widened slightly. What the hell, is he so addicted to singing?
Because he was too confused, the young man could only squeeze out one sentence after a long time: "...Is it true?"
This sentence seemed to turn on a switch, and the comments immediately started to complain.
[Every time the kid is about to fall asleep, you raise the pitch by an octave, fearing that he won't wake up, right? ]
[Even the city lord listened outside for half an hour and then left silently... The cub is really powerful. ]
【The child is good, but the person is bad.】
[The magic sound is piercing my ears! The anchor promised me that if you lose your job in the future, you must not switch to the singing and dancing area. ]
Qi Qing fell into deep thought.
No wonder his voice was hoarse when he woke up today, but he was in a very happy mood. It turned out that he treated the City Lord's Mansion as a KTV and forced himself to sing for half the night.
Half a night...can Yue Ji's ears still bear it?
He wiped his face, put on his robe and walked out without taking time to reflect.
Yue Ji suffered a whole night of mental attack last night. He didn't know how he would perform in today's competition. He didn't know if he could hold on. He had to find someone to check on him quickly.
Liucheng is even more lively today, with crowds of people surging on the streets and constant noise.
When Qi Qing arrived at the preliminary competition venue, there was no space around him. He struggled to squeeze into the crowd and finally got to the front row, but he couldn't find a familiar figure among the group of alchemists.
He felt strange and looked again carefully from the beginning. He even saw Miao Zheng, but still could not find his apprentice.
[Where is the cub? Is the cub lost? ]
[Maybe not in this venue, the host should ask others. ]
Qi Qing grabbed a passerby at random. The passerby looked surprised and said, "You're here just now? We've already had a round of competition before."
"But doesn't the notice say it starts at Si time?" Qi Qing looked confused.
The passerby waved his hand and explained, "That's the time for the singles preliminary round. The multiplayer round was finished at noon, and the rankings are out. If you don't believe me, go over there and take a look."
Qi Qing walked in the direction he pointed. The names on the list were densely packed. He moved closer to take a closer look, scanning them one by one from top to bottom. When his eyes fell on the second column, his gaze suddenly stopped - Yue Ji's name was on the list.
Oh, he is here too.
Wait, why is there still his?
Qi Qing was stunned for a moment, then he looked carefully and found that it was indeed his name.
But he wasn’t there, so how come he’s on the list?
……wrong.
Isn't this the list of multiplayer tracks? How could Yue Ji participate in the multiplayer track?
Qi Qing suddenly remembered something and hurried to look at the title of the list, but then his eyes went dark.
——Master-disciple race?!
Who’s signing up?
Qi Qing suddenly felt like the sky was falling.
This kid Yue Ji... I asked him to sign up but didn't let him bring himself along!
Now, you can just sit at home and watch the competition unfold.
Qi Qing took a deep breath, turned off the live broadcast, didn't even look at the list, and immediately wanted to settle the score with Yue Ji.
The young man took a few steps forward angrily, but his ears unconsciously caught a few conversations from passers-by.
"It's pitiful that the master passed away at such a young age..."
"Of course, this child is so filial that he even knows to put up a sign for his master."
"If his master in heaven saw this, he would probably be pleased."
For some unknown reason, he intuitively felt that these words had something to do with him.
The young man paused, and when he turned around, he had adopted a polite attitude.
He looked at the person who was speaking and asked, "Brother, I heard you mention that there is an alchemist who brought his master's spirit tablet to participate in the competition?"
The passerby nodded with emotion, and didn't blame him for eavesdropping on the conversation. He said, "Yes, it was during the multiplayer competition. The young man was quite young, and all the opponents were busy following their masters. He was the only one controlling the fire and refining medicine all by himself. There was also a sign next to him. What did it say...Qi Leng?"
"It's Qi Qing." The person next to him corrected him.
"Yes, Qi Qing!"
“…”
Hearing the name, the young man suddenly laughed.
He smiled inexplicably and said quietly, "It's very touching... Is he still nearby? I want to have a good look at him."
He deliberately emphasized the word "admire", but the passerby didn't notice and enthusiastically pointed him the way: "I saw him go that way after the meeting. You should be able to catch up with him if you go there now!"
