EBE Chapter 496 Participating in the Competition
Chapter 496 Participating in the Competition
Ruan Xihe chuckled, "Nothing bad."
Seeing Ruan Xihe's expression, Yun Xi immediately thought of Ruan Xihe's look when she accepted the mission, and she hesitated whether she should ask.
"The He family..."
Ruan Xihe waved his hand, "It's just a little grudge."
The dishes were served quickly.
After the group had finished their meal, Hua Yu looked at the map and took everyone to stay at an inn close to the He family.
When it was getting dark, they came out of the inn and secretly went to He's house.
When they arrived at the gate of the He family, Ruan Xihe divided his friends into three groups and inquired about the He family from three directions.
Ruan Xihe said: "Gather here in an hour."
"it is good."
After responding, the friends went their separate ways and disappeared in front of the He family's door.
Ruan Xihe, Jing Lian, Shen Yan and Gongzi Heng bypassed the main gate of the He family and went to the back door.
They climbed over the wall and immediately disappeared into the He family's yard.
......
An hour later.
Nine people gathered in front of the He family's door without any mistake.
They tacitly agreed not to speak and returned to the inn.
After returning to the inn, they began to share with each other the information they had found out, mostly about the competition.
"Just like what the old lady said, the He family did secretly spread the news of this competition and even added spirit stones to the bets themselves." Yun Xi said.
Xiao Yin was puzzled: "What's the purpose of this? Will it be good for them to let more people know about this competition?"
"It's true." Jimo Qianyi said, "We found out that Longyuan Country has no royal family, only five major families, and as the first and leading family among the five major families, it has the greatest power."
"And this ranking was chosen by the people. For hundreds of years, the Lu family has always been the leader of the five major families, but the next family ranking will be in five days."
Mo Yuan: "So, the He family is promoting this to prepare for the next ranking? Are they so confident that they can win?"
"By doing this, the He family will be confident." Ruan Xihe answered affirmatively.
Gongzi Heng curled his lips, "If they are so sure, then wouldn't the dragon bone still belong to them in the end? I don't see how kind they are."
Kindness?
Ruan Xihe sneered.
If she hadn't failed to get the dragon bone, she would have burned down the He family tonight.
Jing Lian reminded: "Let's think about how to get the dragon bone first."
Ruan Xihe said: "There are many experts in the He family. With our current strength, it is not realistic to avoid those experts and look for dragon bones. It is even more unrealistic to meet them head-on, so we only have two options left."
Shen Yan looked at her.
"The first way is to wait until the game is over. At that time, the He family will take out the dragon bone. We will act according to the situation and see if we can snatch the dragon bone and run away."
The friends twitched their lips.
I always feel that this method sounds unreliable.
"What about the second method?" Yun Xi asked.
"The second way..." Ruan Xihe supported his chin and said slowly, "It's to participate in the competition."
"Participate in the competition?"
"That's right. Participate in the competition and get the dragon bone in a fair and square manner."
"But, but this is an internal competition among the five major families. It's not open to the whole country. How can we participate in the competition?"
"If we can find the other four major families to cooperate, won't we have a spot? Our strength is not low, and the other four major families should be happy to cooperate with us."
Jimo Qianyi: "But, even if we can sneak in and participate, the dragon bone is a treasure, which family doesn't want it? How can we get it?"
Ruan Xihe stretched out a finger and shook it gently, "The He family took out the dragon bone for the position of the head of the five major families."
"So the Lu family can either keep their position and get the dragon bone, or lose both. The same goes for other families. They can either get both or lose both."
"According to the current situation, their fate is almost certain, and they are likely to lose. Now we come out and tell them that if they cooperate, they can at least get one thing. Do you think they will cooperate with us?"
"Yes." Shen Yan said.
Jing Lian: "I think so."
The other friends also thought it made sense. Getting one thing is better than losing both.
Hua Yu asked: "Which family should we look for to cooperate with?"
Five major families.
In addition to the He family, there are also the Lu family, the Feng family, the Wang family and the Zhao family.
"No rush, the competition will not start for a few days, let's first check out the situation of the other four major families."
"it is good."
The next day.
They went out to the street early in the morning.
Various bets on this competition can still be seen everywhere on the streets, and passers-by are also discussing relevant information about the competition. They are guessing whether the rankings of the five major families will change.
Suddenly, Ruan Xihe noticed that two groups of people had a conflict in front of a pharmacy, and many people gathered around.
"Let's go and take a look," she said.
After saying that, she and her friends caught up.
After arriving at the door of the drug store, Ruan Xihe learned a little about what had happened. It was roughly that the two sides had fought over the fifth-grade Qingxin Pill.
The four men on the right got the pills first, but when they paid, the man on the left paid first.
They were fighting over who should own the bottle of elixir.
At this time, the shopkeeper came out and said, "Whoever pays the spirit stone first will own it."
The four men on the right were extremely angry.
"But we got them first! Just now, there were a lot of pills. As soon as we got them, they registered and paid first. They did it on purpose!"
The shopkeeper waved his hand impatiently, "It's none of my business. Go away and don't make trouble in front of my store."
At this time, the person on the left winked and provoked the four men.
The four men couldn't help themselves and rushed forward to grab the Qingxin Pill. The man on the left saw that they had taken the bait and immediately fought back with a sinister smile.
The four were defeated and knocked to the ground.
The people on the left wanted to press on and pursue the enemy, seriously injuring four people, but at this moment, a spiritual power came and blocked the attack for the four people.
"Who?!"
No one said a word.
"You are lucky today. I will let you go this time." The man on the left snorted and warned the four people fiercely, then turned around and left.
Seeing the person on the left leaving with the Qingxin Pill, the four men got up from the ground, lowered their heads and left without saying a word.
Without a show to watch, the crowd dispersed.
Gong Ziheng looked at the backs of the four people leaving and asked Ruan Xihe in confusion: "Boss, why did you help them just now?"
"it works."
"what?"
"Follow them."
As he spoke, Ruan Xihe walked in the direction the four people left.
The friends followed behind her.
