After the imperial edict was announced, several ministers held signs and went to each seat and asked the immortals to choose.
Xiao Xuan took a sign and opened the Jinfeng. Seeing that it was already thirty-one, he thought that there were quite a few people who were going to compete this time.
The He family and son in the neighboring seat also chose a lottery, with a serious expression, but they won the second place.
The draw of lots was finished, and the emperor sitting on the Beitai nodded slightly. He saw a palace official coming to the railing and shouting loudly: The fairy competition begins! Please invite those who win the first two numbers to appear.
Then, a fat monk rushed down the platform, his chest and belly trembled, and a pair of long ears drooped to his shoulders, holding the thick porcelain wine jar that he brought from somewhere, and said carelessly: The monk Sajia is the big ear monk from Wuchen Temple in Huigenfeng. He went to Beijing today and originally wanted to ask for a cup of holy wine to taste, but unexpectedly, he won the first prize to sign tonight, so let's throw it ugly first!
He Tiandiao stood up suddenly, turned to the table, bowed to his father, and said: The child is gone!
He Zhenyuan nodded and said in a deep voice: It is rumored that this big-eared monk has a spiritual puppet, which is made of dragon-patterned yew. It should belong to the mechanism, neck joints or weak areas.
Xiao Xuan felt a stern when he heard this: The He family and his son knew the tricks of mechanisms, and they didn’t know what would happen to compete?
He Tiandiao responded, walked down the stage with great strides, came to the side of the martial arts court, bowed to all directions, and said loudly: He Tiandiao in the Demon Castle, I hope all the experts will give you advice!
After the two of them stood on the sidelines, the head of the palace in Beitai read out the competition rules loudly: Both parties are not allowed to enter the venue in person, and are only allowed to compete with spiritual beasts, armored soldiers and mechanisms, and those who lose their combat power or exit from the field are the consequences!
After listening to it, He Tiandiao tidi slightly dressed up, raised his hand to the monk Da'er opposite, and compared the posture of asking for help.
Baby comes out, we have something to play! The monk Da'er shouted, swinging his sleeves, and suddenly saw a human-shaped puppet appearing in front of him, with eyes but no puppets, nose but no mouth, bald head, and staggering into the martial arts field
Xiao Xuan saw that the puppet had purple patterns hidden all over the body, and it was dense scales. He thought: Look at the appearance of this wood man, it was really made of dragon-patterned yew.
He Tiandiu stared at the same time, muttering something in his mouth, slapped the waist bag with one hand, and barking a loud bark. A giant dog appeared in front of him, the size of a leopard, wrapped in black armor on the belly and back, a row of bright sharp blades were standing on the spine, the naked muscles were tied, the arched waist was angrily and fierce, and the concubines on the high platform on the west immediately exclaimed.
Xiao Xuan was also slightly surprised and couldn't help but praise: So powerful!
He Zhenyuan, who was on the neighbor's mat, smiled and said: This dog is called "Demon Eating," also known as the Three Hells. It was born in the underworld. It is a divine object that has existed since ancient times. It is now very rare. It is brave and fearless by nature and specializes in eating evil and filth. Even if the tiger, leopard, dragon and dragon see it, they will turn around.
It’s fine if the tiger and leopard are, but the dragon will be afraid of it? Xiao Xuan felt unbelievable
What a dog! Baby, go and play with it. The big-eared monk said with a smile. The puppet seemed to understand his words, so he walked towards the giant dog in a daze.
How dare you underestimate my divine dog, and today I will teach you that the bald donkey is amazing! He Tiandiao was secretly angry and raised his hand. The giant dog suddenly burst out and rushed into the field like lightning, rushing straight to the puppet
The martial arts venue located in the middle of the hall is extremely huge, more than forty feet long and more than twenty feet wide. Both sides are on one side and are far apart. However, the giant dog is as powerful as thunder, and only a few pounces and approaches the puppet. His two hind legs kicked, and his entire giant body flew up from the ground, like a tiger angrily devouring the enemy.
The monk Da'er outside the field suddenly picked up the wine jar on his arm and drank it. At the same time, the puppet in the field also raised his arms and his fists were just arched on his head. He hit the bottom of the belly of the giant dog that was flying towards him. He heard a loud bang. The giant dog shook his body and condensed in the air. The puppet also swept his shoulders. He fell and fell on the ground and fell to the ground. He didn't stop at all. He quickly rushed out of the field and stepped out to the side. The puppet in the field dodged and dodged, and took the next beast and puppet, and fought each other.
He Tiandiao stood on the sidelines, drinking and roaring, directing the divine dog to pounce on the enemy, while the big-eared monk on the other side looked drunk, swaying and dancing. The puppets in the field followed him like shadows and dodged with him, and they were extremely agile and free.
Xiao Xuan looked at it and cheered in his heart: This fat monk must be in harmony with his spiritual puppet. If he does not compete, if he really encounters an enemy, the doll will be doubled, it will be amazing! Interesting and interesting!
Thinking about the four words of mutual communication between my heart, I suddenly felt a sudden sensation in the depths of my soul, and I felt something. My eyes closed, and my thoughts didn't know where I was. I saw a human-shaped object floating in the air in the dark, with a blurry outline and almost transparent, with no facial features on my face, and it was strange and mysterious. My eyes fell on my waist, and I saw that it was nearly half broken, and I thought to myself: It seems to be very hurt...
What I saw in front of me was really incredible, and I felt vaguely related to me, but I couldn't understand it
He shook his head in distress. When he opened his eyes, he saw that the fight in the field became more and more intense. The giant dog seemed to have endless energy and kept rushing and attacking, which was really better than a big insect. The puppet was extremely flexible in shape and footwork, but also had very exquisite fists and foot moves. It not only made the giant dog's pounce and suck, but also frequently hit the giant dog's frequent attacks.
Xiao Xuan heard the sound and was very dull every time he hit. He knew that he was hit hard, and thought to himself: If this continues, I am afraid that the Demon Castle will lose.
He Tiandiu saw that the divine dog was repeatedly restrained, and his anger gradually overflowed, and his shouting became louder and more violent.
He Zhenyuan on the stage shook his head slightly, but his expression was very calm. Seeing Xiao Xuan turned around, he bowed and smiled: Dogzi's cultivation is very shallow and his concentration is not enough, which makes the adults laugh.
Xiao Xuan bowed quickly and said vaguely: Where is it, it's still early to win or lose.
The winner is right in front of him. He Zhenyuan smiled and said: The god dog suffered losses one after another, and he was afraid he would be angry.
Before he finished speaking, he heard a strange cry. Xiao Xuan looked back and saw that the scene had changed. The puppet used some exquisite tricks, but he locked the giant dog's neck with his arm and twisted it firmly to the ground. The giant dog's limbs were twitching, but he couldn't break free.
Xiao Xuan said in his heart: This is not the case. The magic dog in the Demon Castle can't beat the great monk's spiritual puppet.
The giant dog bared its teeth and cracked its mouth. I don’t know if it was because of difficulty breathing. His eyes opened angrily, and suddenly it became red, like blood, and it looked very scary.
Seeing that the outcome was about to be decided, a shocking howl suddenly changed. The giant dog suddenly lifted and arched, and somehow came out of power. Instead, it turned the puppet under it and pressed it tightly, clasped its arms tightly, and still locked the giant dog's neck tightly. However, the giant dog was imperceptibly killed and bitten it. The sharp teeth suddenly sucked into the puppet's chest. The puppet was injured, and its arms were slightly loose. The giant dog shook its head and tore it off, biting a large piece of wood from the puppet's body.
The face of the monk Da'er on the sidelines changed slightly, and he quickly changed his moves. He swung the puppet in his fist and punched the giant dog's forehead. But he knew that the giant dog was like a piece of gold and iron, and his head was just slightly tilted, and he ate several times in succession, biting a terrifying hole in the puppet's chest.
Lose, lose! Stop! The monk Da'er shouted urgently
He Tiandiao wanted to establish his authority, but he turned a deaf ear to the ears and was still raging by the god dog. While breathing, the puppet was bitten and scattered and tragically terrible.
Although it is not a flesh and blood body, it is already shocking. Someone on the stage stood up, and the concubines on the western stage even exclaimed.
Xiao Xuan knew that the puppet was made of dragon-patterned purple shirt, and most of them were reinforced with other rare materials, and they must have been blessed with defensive spells. Their hardness must be far better than that of gold and iron. He was shocked: What is this dog's teeth made of? It's so sharp!
After a few breaths, He Tiandiao calmly let out a clear roar. When the giant dog heard the order, Fang Guan left the puppet that had been dissatisfied, took a few steps back, and still roared quietly.
He Tiandi bowed to the opposite side and said coldly: The divine dog is angry and has not stopped. I hope the master will forgive me!
The monk Da'er looked a little annoyed, and suddenly laughed and shook his eyes: It's okay, what a powerful dog, the child has a bright future! He stepped into the venue, picked up the broken puppet, put it in his sleeve, and flew back to the stage.
The head official of the palace on the Beitai said loudly: The first game has been decided, and the Demon Castle has won the Tiandi. Please invite the third-best winner to come on the field!
My little friend of the He family, I am here to play with you! I saw a man falling from the east platform, wearing three crowns, a slinging belt on his waist, wearing a green robe, pedaling cloud shoes, and holding a wind and fire whisk in his hand. However, he was a Taoist priest, with a thief-eyed look and a small figure. He looked quite vulgar, so he bowed to the North Platform: Lu Anqing, the disciple of the Lingbao Palace in Wunage Mountain, happened to travel to Kyoto, and now he is here to join in the fun!
He Tiandiao heard him call him a friend of the He family, and seemed to be disrespectful, and said calmly: Are you really the Taoist priest Lu named "Yunling Duxiu"?
Lu Anqing heard that he knew his name and looked slightly radiant. He raised the whisk on his arm and said loudly: It's me, I'm a little bit wise.
But He Tiandiao smiled and said: But I heard that Yunling Duxiu was addicted to gambling and was heavily in debt, so he was chasing the creditors. Recently, he had been driven out of the wall by Baoxue. Why did the Taoist priest still claim to be under the Lingbao? Well... it was mostly rumored and untrue.
Everyone on the stage heard it, and it was not false, so a little laughter sounded
Lu Anqing's face became hot, and he was furious, and said coldly: Even if I was driven out of the wall, I would always be the subordinate of my mentor, and I would always take the dog! When I waved my sleeves, I suddenly saw a dark green aura as thick as a beam and a pillar flying out, attacking the demon-eating dog in the field.
He Tiandiao was also very angry, and whistled violently, and he hopped over to meet him.
The two intersected and a muffled sound broke out. The giant dog seemed to encounter some powerful obstacle, and it shook to the side. The green energy was also shattered, and it appeared in the air, but it was a giant insect with a thousand-legged length, like a python, and its feet were like a scimitar, which looked extremely fierce, which made the concubines on the western platform shout again.
Xiao Xuan was also surprised and thought to himself: This must be the big centipede that Xiao Jian saw when he walked up to the Yingsheng Platform a few days ago... How could a Taoist priest practice such a ruthless thing? It doesn't look like a mechanism, don't you know it's a real beast or an armored soldier?
One insect and one beast are divided and hit again, and they are intertwined and fought one by one in a flash, just like a dragon and a tiger fighting each other, and they are thrilling.
Xiao Xuan thought to himself: This centipede is so huge that it must be extremely powerful. Although the divine dog is brave, it will not be able to get it this time!
Sure enough, during the fierce fight, a centipede suddenly caught a few feet and hooked the giant dog's armor. It was wrapped around quickly like a python, and the giant body tightened to kill the giant dog.
Xiao Xuan let out a light whisper, but saw He Zhenyuan still calm and he was very puzzled.
He Zhenyuan smiled and said: Don’t worry, sir, although the giant insect is fierce, it is an evil spirit. This dog is their nemesis!
The giant dog struggled hard, but unfortunately his head was left outside, and he was trapped by a centipede below his neck. He had a sharp teeth but couldn't bite anything
Seeing that the victory was sure to win, Lu Anqing laughed at the opposite side from afar: Can a dog be convinced? At this time, begging for mercy may be a life of the dog!
He Tiandiao was angry and roared repeatedly in his mouth. He saw that the demon-eating dog's eyes were red and red in a blink of an eye. It was like blood stains, which was strange.
He Zhenyuan stroked his beard and said: When the divine dog appears, it is time for the evil demon to scatter.
As soon as he finished speaking, a dull roar suddenly seemed to burst out from the depths of hell. The centipede shook all over, and the locked giant body seemed to loosen a little. Suddenly, a black gas emerged, and another dog's head appeared in the center of the trapped trap.
Xiao Xuan said his eyes were dazzled, and then heard another roar. When a black air surged up again, the centipede's giant body was loose, he actually wandered away like a fleeing, throwing the giant dog before to the spot. However, the giant dog had changed its appearance at this time. There were three heads on the shoulders and necks, all of which were angry and raised their ears and cracked their teeth. There were fishy saliva dripping from his mouth, which looked extremely terrifying.
Everyone on the stage was shocked and didn't know what happened for a moment
Even the emperor above the North Taiwan looked gloomy. Although the mask was covering nearly half, the national teacher Bu Xuansi, who stood beside him, seemed to feel something. Suddenly, he said sinisterly: This ordinary man in the He family dares to feed evil dogs. Three years ago, the old man has long disliked him. If he meets him on the field later, he will kill the dog.
The Xiaoyao Langjun on the lower right mat took a leisurely glance at the emperor, thinking about something
Three dogs approached the escaped centipede step by step. Although its size was huge, it was still far from the centipede. However, at this moment, the centipede, as giant as a python, curled up into a ball, and could not hold it all in battle.
Lu Anqing's expression changed drastically, and he muttered something. He waved the whisk in his hand, but saw the centipede trembling in place, and it seemed that he didn't even have the courage to escape.
The giant dog suddenly stood firm, and raised his head and barked at the centipede angrily. Everyone on the stage was shocked. Several palace maids were soft and their bodies were trembling. Suddenly, they saw the centipede trembling all over, and their giant body turned left and right and changed shape. Before everyone could see clearly, they had seen the centipede turn into an old plum tree with a cross.
Xiao Xuan suddenly realized: It turned out that this Taoist priest was not a bad practice, but just detained the plum spirit and transformed into a centipede, and attacked people with a fierce and fierce shape!
Lu Anqing waved the whisk quickly, and the plum tree was like a man, trying to escape outside the field. He Tiandiao whistled his lips and saw three dogs rising up. The lightning was already on the plum tree's body, and his mouth was sucked into pieces.
Xiao Xuan saw it in his eyes and felt very reluctant in his heart. He thought: The plum tree needs to be a chance to practice for at least hundreds of years before it can become a spirit, but today it is ruined. It's really pitiful and lamentable.
But He Tiandiao said lightly: Detaining flowers and trees is a Taoist exquisite and elegant technique, but you can use it and refine evil forms, and you cannot keep it.
Lu Anqing's face turned pale, he stood on the sidelines for a while and said twice, "Okay, I just flicked my sleeves and flew back to the stage."
Suddenly, the head official of the palace on the North Platform said loudly: He Tiandi won two consecutive games in Demon Castle and has been selected for the second round of competition. Please return to the seat for a while. Please give me a sign to the fourth place. The fifth person will be named and enter the competition!
He Tianpeng returned to the stage with his head held high, passed by Gong Shihong's table, hurriedly stopped his arrogant look, and bowed respectfully.
Even if it is Erlang Zhenjun’s Snow Sky Dog, I’m afraid it’s just that! Gong Shihong said with a smile
Don't dare, don't dare, the adults are over-reward. He Tiandiu said panic and returned to the table, feeling very proud.
He Zhenyuan remained silent and waited for his son to sit down beside him, and suddenly whispered: You kid, you are so ignorant, you are too ignorant on the court just now
He Tiandiao was stunned and argued in a low voice: The child didn't want to do anything too much, but those two guys were despicable, so he taught them some lessons.
He Zhenyuan didn't look at him and sighed slightly: Well, this gambling fight is about to offend people, but if you walk outside in the future, you must be careful about these people who have fought.
Xiao Xuan, who was next to the table, was panicked and touched the Ruyi Bag on his waist: The three god dogs were so fierce. It seems that the dragon could not fight it. If the big treasure met it, it would be afraid that it would be a good fortune... I was nervous again: If you lose, you should not bite it.
The next game was very fierce, and the winner was very tight. After more than ten bets, there was only one who won two games in a row, but it was a pair of brothers from the Wushi family of Langya, brother Mingjing and brother Mingjue, and the name of Langya Double Bi. The two of them controlled a pair of spiritual cranes with flutes, easily and gracefully defeated two opponents in a row, and entered the second round.
He Zhenyuan praised: Since our family finally produced talents, these two brothers have become very popular recently, and they have killed many evil spirits. They are my fellow men.
He Tiandiao said lightly: I only pray for the next round of competition, brothers, don’t meet my Demon Castle
Xiao Xuanxin said: It turns out he is a famous person, no wonder he is so powerful
At this time, the middle-aged alchemist who was a famous master of Tianxiang Sect of the Great Armor Sect. His surname was Zhong and Jin, and his name was Dianjin Holy Hand. He controlled a bronze beast with a rune that was completely defeated by a rival.
The Golden Escape Armored Soldier is very strong among the five elements and is the most difficult to control. He Zhenyuan nodded and said: The Tianxiang Sect’s armor technique is indeed amazing. It’s no wonder that it can be as famous as the mechanical techniques of Tianji Island. This person is the junior brother of the sect leader Zhou Jingyuan, and his cultivation level is firmly ranked among the top ten in the sect.
He Tiandiu said in a narrow mind: This person will definitely win two consecutive games. If he meets him in the next round, he will be an opponent!
But I heard the head official of the palace on the North Taiwan whistle loudly: Please give me the number 17th sign to appear... The voice paused, and then shouted loudly: Please invite the famous Donghai scholar Xiaoyao Langjun!
Then he saw Xiaoyao's husband standing up from the table, bowing to the emperor, and slowly flying off the stage with a masked Li Ji beside him. Ling Xu is the wind and the heavenly beings
The sky suddenly roared in the Tianwu Palace, and there was a stir on the three platforms.
Xiao Xuan held his eyes tightly, looked at this Xiaoyao husband, and then looked at the masked Li Ji, and felt pleasing to the eyes.
Xiaoyao Langjun bowed to the opposite side and smiled: Master, please
Zhong Jin looked arrogant and suddenly said: I heard that last month on the Holy Holy Platform, you won several games in a row with one mechanism. I wonder if this is the case?
This... Xiaoyao Langjun said: At the banquet that day, everyone was just drinking to help the fun, so there was no need to worry about the outcome
Zhong Jindao: In today's game, will you still play as an agency on the same day?
It is the Xiaoyao Langjun
Then... Zhong Jin stopped: In today's bet, can you and I add a small lottery?
Oh, what's the lottery? Xiaoyao Langjun asked with a smile
If you win, what if you ask the beauty beside you to take off the veil? Zhong Jindao
The stage started to stir up again, and Xiao Xuan said in his heart: This lottery ticket is a bit rude!
Xiaoyao Langjun still smiled: I dare to ask the master, why is this?
Zhong Jin said: There are rumors in the martial arts world that Wuxia, the Fairy of the Evil Palace, ran away that year, and it has something to do with you. I wonder if this rumor is true or false?
It's true. The Xiaoyao Langjun responded, as if he was talking about something that was ordinary
There was an uproar on the stage, and many people whispered
The Evil Palace is one of the righteous sects in the realm. He has always hated evil like a grudge. In the same way as Tiandao Pavilion, Shushan Sect is a mortal enemy of evil demons. The top sects are like clouds. The five palace masters in the world not only have extremely high cultivation, but also have beautiful and beautiful colors, making the evil demons in the world both hate and covet. At the peak, a sudden change occurred. The fourth palace master, Xueyu Xianniang, was gone, and the fifth palace master, Wuxia Fairy Lu Yanying, disappeared, and his vitality was greatly damaged from then on.
The Bixie Palace has always been resentful of this and kept silent to the outside world. However, the two palace masters in various circles have fallen into the clutches of demons. One of them seems to have something to do with a big demon in the demon world; the other is even more unbearable, and it is suspected to be taken away by the Xiaoyao Sect of the East China Sea. However, the truth is like a cloud and fog, and it has not yet been understood.
Zhong Jin was slightly surprised. This matter was dangerous and secret. At this time, he was very surprised. He thought the other party would deny it or avoid answering it. However, he answered so much, but he simply said: My junior brother has some connection with the Xie Bi Palace. At the banquet that day, he asked for verification. Although it was abrupt, the beauty beside you destroyed the armored soldiers who were practicing with my junior brother's life in the name of a competition. This is too much.
Xiao Xuan suddenly realized: It turned out that this person stood up for his junior brother!
Who is your junior brother? Xiaoyao Langjun narrowed his eyes slightly, and he couldn't seem to remember which one it was
Have you forgotten the young master? It was probably the short Donggua who jumped out that night to ask Sister Ying and me to take off the veil. The masked Li Ji next to her said, her voice was tender and crisp, very pleasant
A man suddenly stood up on the east platform, with a short, fat and round figure. It was Zhong Jin's master Zhu Zhong who pointed at the field and cursed: You witch! How could you be that little bitch in the West Sea? She was humiliated. Not only did she feel ashamed to live in the world, she also had to be with the East China Sea traitors. She really humiliated the water clan sea world and lost all your face! Now that she has no shame to meet people, she has to hide and cover them all day long?
Xiao Xuan heard that he was extremely scolding, frowned slightly, and was confused. Suddenly, he heard He Tiandiu, who was in the neighbor's house, whisper: Is this woman the Ninth Princess of the West Sea that was robbed by Xiaoyao Langjun? It seems that she has really surrendered to that lewd!
He Zhenyuan whispered: Don’t say too much!
Xiao Xuan looked at the Xiaoyao husband again and thought to himself: This person gave the emperor filthy medicine, and now many people scolded him. I'm afraid he's really evil, but unfortunately he looks good
Tianxiang Sect is a famous sect that has entered the world in the earth. It has many disciples and has a wide influence. Its reputation was originally similar to Tianji Island, but in recent years, the dynasty has valued the disciples of Tianji Island. The emperor even regarded his elder Bu Xuansi as the national teacher, and the two factions were only opened.
Many disciples of Tianxiang Sect were very unwilling to accept it, and Zhu Zhongbing was one of them. He was good at controlling earth escape and was very famous. He set foot in Yujing and wanted to compete with Tianji Island for some reason, but he had a chance to cope with Xiaoyao's husband, but he had completely destroyed his power. So he rushed back to the door for help, invited his senior brother Zhong Jin to attend the fairy conference and found an opportunity to get back to his face.
Just in the words, it was not that enemies would not get together, both sides met in the first round of the game.
Xiaoyao's face darkened
Zhong Jinsenran stared at him, his hands in his sleeves pressed the seal, and the bronze beast on the field was ready to go
The masked Li Ji suddenly raised her left arm, and a heart-beating hand that was sliding down from her sleeve was exposed. She pinched an apricot-bottomed silver flower handkerchief with the other hand and began to wrap her left palm around her, revealing only a few jade fingers that were as beautiful as bamboo shoots.
Everyone didn't understand why, but they attracted her slender hands and beauty.
What a pity that this handkerchief. Xiaoyao Langjun sighed slightly and looked at the opposite side: Since that's the case, it's not impossible to add a lottery... What if this side wins by chance?
As long as you can win, you will do whatever you want. Zhong Jin said lightly that although the other party was regarded as a guest of honor by the emperor, he was favored by his strange and lewd skills. He was just a thief who steals fragrance and jade. He still didn't care about such filth.
Xiaoyao's husband said slowly: Then that's it. If you win here, you will ask your junior brother to get out of the stage and kowtow three times to my woman. Otherwise... even if you escape back to Shenbing Ridge, I'm afraid there will be no more time.
Everyone on the stage was filled with fear, and Zhong Jin's expression changed drastically, saying: Do you have such ability?
Is it true? Xiaoyao Langjun said softly, his face was extremely handsome, and at this moment there seemed to be a smile on the corner of his mouth, but it made people feel cold
Before Zhong Jin could answer, he suddenly saw a shadow flashing across the opposite side. The masked Li Ji on the opposite side had disappeared, and he shouted anxiously: Be careful!
Zhu Zhong on the East Platform suddenly had a flash of eyes, and several crisp sounds of banging sounds in his ears. He was so painful on his face that he was about to hit him. He suddenly found that his wrists were being fixed, but they were tied together with a blue silk ribbon shining with waves. He could not move at all.
It was not until this time that everyone saw that the masked Li Ji appeared on the east platform, hanging in front of Zhu Zhong in the air, and the hand wrapped in a handkerchief was slowly retracting.
Zhu Zhong's nose and mouth were bleeding, and his already fat face was swollen, and his eyebrows were squeezed into a thread in a blink of an eye.
Phantom smoke wave, step a thousand miles! The dragon clan's supreme body technique He Zhenyuan shouted lightly
Xiao Xuan took a sign and opened the Jinfeng. Seeing that it was already thirty-one, he thought that there were quite a few people who were going to compete this time.
The He family and son in the neighboring seat also chose a lottery, with a serious expression, but they won the second place.
The draw of lots was finished, and the emperor sitting on the Beitai nodded slightly. He saw a palace official coming to the railing and shouting loudly: The fairy competition begins! Please invite those who win the first two numbers to appear.
Then, a fat monk rushed down the platform, his chest and belly trembled, and a pair of long ears drooped to his shoulders, holding the thick porcelain wine jar that he brought from somewhere, and said carelessly: The monk Sajia is the big ear monk from Wuchen Temple in Huigenfeng. He went to Beijing today and originally wanted to ask for a cup of holy wine to taste, but unexpectedly, he won the first prize to sign tonight, so let's throw it ugly first!
He Tiandiao stood up suddenly, turned to the table, bowed to his father, and said: The child is gone!
He Zhenyuan nodded and said in a deep voice: It is rumored that this big-eared monk has a spiritual puppet, which is made of dragon-patterned yew. It should belong to the mechanism, neck joints or weak areas.
Xiao Xuan felt a stern when he heard this: The He family and his son knew the tricks of mechanisms, and they didn’t know what would happen to compete?
He Tiandiao responded, walked down the stage with great strides, came to the side of the martial arts court, bowed to all directions, and said loudly: He Tiandiao in the Demon Castle, I hope all the experts will give you advice!
After the two of them stood on the sidelines, the head of the palace in Beitai read out the competition rules loudly: Both parties are not allowed to enter the venue in person, and are only allowed to compete with spiritual beasts, armored soldiers and mechanisms, and those who lose their combat power or exit from the field are the consequences!
After listening to it, He Tiandiao tidi slightly dressed up, raised his hand to the monk Da'er opposite, and compared the posture of asking for help.
Baby comes out, we have something to play! The monk Da'er shouted, swinging his sleeves, and suddenly saw a human-shaped puppet appearing in front of him, with eyes but no puppets, nose but no mouth, bald head, and staggering into the martial arts field
Xiao Xuan saw that the puppet had purple patterns hidden all over the body, and it was dense scales. He thought: Look at the appearance of this wood man, it was really made of dragon-patterned yew.
He Tiandiu stared at the same time, muttering something in his mouth, slapped the waist bag with one hand, and barking a loud bark. A giant dog appeared in front of him, the size of a leopard, wrapped in black armor on the belly and back, a row of bright sharp blades were standing on the spine, the naked muscles were tied, the arched waist was angrily and fierce, and the concubines on the high platform on the west immediately exclaimed.
Xiao Xuan was also slightly surprised and couldn't help but praise: So powerful!
He Zhenyuan, who was on the neighbor's mat, smiled and said: This dog is called "Demon Eating," also known as the Three Hells. It was born in the underworld. It is a divine object that has existed since ancient times. It is now very rare. It is brave and fearless by nature and specializes in eating evil and filth. Even if the tiger, leopard, dragon and dragon see it, they will turn around.
It’s fine if the tiger and leopard are, but the dragon will be afraid of it? Xiao Xuan felt unbelievable
What a dog! Baby, go and play with it. The big-eared monk said with a smile. The puppet seemed to understand his words, so he walked towards the giant dog in a daze.
How dare you underestimate my divine dog, and today I will teach you that the bald donkey is amazing! He Tiandiao was secretly angry and raised his hand. The giant dog suddenly burst out and rushed into the field like lightning, rushing straight to the puppet
The martial arts venue located in the middle of the hall is extremely huge, more than forty feet long and more than twenty feet wide. Both sides are on one side and are far apart. However, the giant dog is as powerful as thunder, and only a few pounces and approaches the puppet. His two hind legs kicked, and his entire giant body flew up from the ground, like a tiger angrily devouring the enemy.
The monk Da'er outside the field suddenly picked up the wine jar on his arm and drank it. At the same time, the puppet in the field also raised his arms and his fists were just arched on his head. He hit the bottom of the belly of the giant dog that was flying towards him. He heard a loud bang. The giant dog shook his body and condensed in the air. The puppet also swept his shoulders. He fell and fell on the ground and fell to the ground. He didn't stop at all. He quickly rushed out of the field and stepped out to the side. The puppet in the field dodged and dodged, and took the next beast and puppet, and fought each other.
He Tiandiao stood on the sidelines, drinking and roaring, directing the divine dog to pounce on the enemy, while the big-eared monk on the other side looked drunk, swaying and dancing. The puppets in the field followed him like shadows and dodged with him, and they were extremely agile and free.
Xiao Xuan looked at it and cheered in his heart: This fat monk must be in harmony with his spiritual puppet. If he does not compete, if he really encounters an enemy, the doll will be doubled, it will be amazing! Interesting and interesting!
Thinking about the four words of mutual communication between my heart, I suddenly felt a sudden sensation in the depths of my soul, and I felt something. My eyes closed, and my thoughts didn't know where I was. I saw a human-shaped object floating in the air in the dark, with a blurry outline and almost transparent, with no facial features on my face, and it was strange and mysterious. My eyes fell on my waist, and I saw that it was nearly half broken, and I thought to myself: It seems to be very hurt...
What I saw in front of me was really incredible, and I felt vaguely related to me, but I couldn't understand it
He shook his head in distress. When he opened his eyes, he saw that the fight in the field became more and more intense. The giant dog seemed to have endless energy and kept rushing and attacking, which was really better than a big insect. The puppet was extremely flexible in shape and footwork, but also had very exquisite fists and foot moves. It not only made the giant dog's pounce and suck, but also frequently hit the giant dog's frequent attacks.
Xiao Xuan heard the sound and was very dull every time he hit. He knew that he was hit hard, and thought to himself: If this continues, I am afraid that the Demon Castle will lose.
He Tiandiu saw that the divine dog was repeatedly restrained, and his anger gradually overflowed, and his shouting became louder and more violent.
He Zhenyuan on the stage shook his head slightly, but his expression was very calm. Seeing Xiao Xuan turned around, he bowed and smiled: Dogzi's cultivation is very shallow and his concentration is not enough, which makes the adults laugh.
Xiao Xuan bowed quickly and said vaguely: Where is it, it's still early to win or lose.
The winner is right in front of him. He Zhenyuan smiled and said: The god dog suffered losses one after another, and he was afraid he would be angry.
Before he finished speaking, he heard a strange cry. Xiao Xuan looked back and saw that the scene had changed. The puppet used some exquisite tricks, but he locked the giant dog's neck with his arm and twisted it firmly to the ground. The giant dog's limbs were twitching, but he couldn't break free.
Xiao Xuan said in his heart: This is not the case. The magic dog in the Demon Castle can't beat the great monk's spiritual puppet.
The giant dog bared its teeth and cracked its mouth. I don’t know if it was because of difficulty breathing. His eyes opened angrily, and suddenly it became red, like blood, and it looked very scary.
Seeing that the outcome was about to be decided, a shocking howl suddenly changed. The giant dog suddenly lifted and arched, and somehow came out of power. Instead, it turned the puppet under it and pressed it tightly, clasped its arms tightly, and still locked the giant dog's neck tightly. However, the giant dog was imperceptibly killed and bitten it. The sharp teeth suddenly sucked into the puppet's chest. The puppet was injured, and its arms were slightly loose. The giant dog shook its head and tore it off, biting a large piece of wood from the puppet's body.
The face of the monk Da'er on the sidelines changed slightly, and he quickly changed his moves. He swung the puppet in his fist and punched the giant dog's forehead. But he knew that the giant dog was like a piece of gold and iron, and his head was just slightly tilted, and he ate several times in succession, biting a terrifying hole in the puppet's chest.
Lose, lose! Stop! The monk Da'er shouted urgently
He Tiandiao wanted to establish his authority, but he turned a deaf ear to the ears and was still raging by the god dog. While breathing, the puppet was bitten and scattered and tragically terrible.
Although it is not a flesh and blood body, it is already shocking. Someone on the stage stood up, and the concubines on the western stage even exclaimed.
Xiao Xuan knew that the puppet was made of dragon-patterned purple shirt, and most of them were reinforced with other rare materials, and they must have been blessed with defensive spells. Their hardness must be far better than that of gold and iron. He was shocked: What is this dog's teeth made of? It's so sharp!
After a few breaths, He Tiandiao calmly let out a clear roar. When the giant dog heard the order, Fang Guan left the puppet that had been dissatisfied, took a few steps back, and still roared quietly.
He Tiandi bowed to the opposite side and said coldly: The divine dog is angry and has not stopped. I hope the master will forgive me!
The monk Da'er looked a little annoyed, and suddenly laughed and shook his eyes: It's okay, what a powerful dog, the child has a bright future! He stepped into the venue, picked up the broken puppet, put it in his sleeve, and flew back to the stage.
The head official of the palace on the Beitai said loudly: The first game has been decided, and the Demon Castle has won the Tiandi. Please invite the third-best winner to come on the field!
My little friend of the He family, I am here to play with you! I saw a man falling from the east platform, wearing three crowns, a slinging belt on his waist, wearing a green robe, pedaling cloud shoes, and holding a wind and fire whisk in his hand. However, he was a Taoist priest, with a thief-eyed look and a small figure. He looked quite vulgar, so he bowed to the North Platform: Lu Anqing, the disciple of the Lingbao Palace in Wunage Mountain, happened to travel to Kyoto, and now he is here to join in the fun!
He Tiandiao heard him call him a friend of the He family, and seemed to be disrespectful, and said calmly: Are you really the Taoist priest Lu named "Yunling Duxiu"?
Lu Anqing heard that he knew his name and looked slightly radiant. He raised the whisk on his arm and said loudly: It's me, I'm a little bit wise.
But He Tiandiao smiled and said: But I heard that Yunling Duxiu was addicted to gambling and was heavily in debt, so he was chasing the creditors. Recently, he had been driven out of the wall by Baoxue. Why did the Taoist priest still claim to be under the Lingbao? Well... it was mostly rumored and untrue.
Everyone on the stage heard it, and it was not false, so a little laughter sounded
Lu Anqing's face became hot, and he was furious, and said coldly: Even if I was driven out of the wall, I would always be the subordinate of my mentor, and I would always take the dog! When I waved my sleeves, I suddenly saw a dark green aura as thick as a beam and a pillar flying out, attacking the demon-eating dog in the field.
He Tiandiao was also very angry, and whistled violently, and he hopped over to meet him.
The two intersected and a muffled sound broke out. The giant dog seemed to encounter some powerful obstacle, and it shook to the side. The green energy was also shattered, and it appeared in the air, but it was a giant insect with a thousand-legged length, like a python, and its feet were like a scimitar, which looked extremely fierce, which made the concubines on the western platform shout again.
Xiao Xuan was also surprised and thought to himself: This must be the big centipede that Xiao Jian saw when he walked up to the Yingsheng Platform a few days ago... How could a Taoist priest practice such a ruthless thing? It doesn't look like a mechanism, don't you know it's a real beast or an armored soldier?
One insect and one beast are divided and hit again, and they are intertwined and fought one by one in a flash, just like a dragon and a tiger fighting each other, and they are thrilling.
Xiao Xuan thought to himself: This centipede is so huge that it must be extremely powerful. Although the divine dog is brave, it will not be able to get it this time!
Sure enough, during the fierce fight, a centipede suddenly caught a few feet and hooked the giant dog's armor. It was wrapped around quickly like a python, and the giant body tightened to kill the giant dog.
Xiao Xuan let out a light whisper, but saw He Zhenyuan still calm and he was very puzzled.
He Zhenyuan smiled and said: Don’t worry, sir, although the giant insect is fierce, it is an evil spirit. This dog is their nemesis!
The giant dog struggled hard, but unfortunately his head was left outside, and he was trapped by a centipede below his neck. He had a sharp teeth but couldn't bite anything
Seeing that the victory was sure to win, Lu Anqing laughed at the opposite side from afar: Can a dog be convinced? At this time, begging for mercy may be a life of the dog!
He Tiandiao was angry and roared repeatedly in his mouth. He saw that the demon-eating dog's eyes were red and red in a blink of an eye. It was like blood stains, which was strange.
He Zhenyuan stroked his beard and said: When the divine dog appears, it is time for the evil demon to scatter.
As soon as he finished speaking, a dull roar suddenly seemed to burst out from the depths of hell. The centipede shook all over, and the locked giant body seemed to loosen a little. Suddenly, a black gas emerged, and another dog's head appeared in the center of the trapped trap.
Xiao Xuan said his eyes were dazzled, and then heard another roar. When a black air surged up again, the centipede's giant body was loose, he actually wandered away like a fleeing, throwing the giant dog before to the spot. However, the giant dog had changed its appearance at this time. There were three heads on the shoulders and necks, all of which were angry and raised their ears and cracked their teeth. There were fishy saliva dripping from his mouth, which looked extremely terrifying.
Everyone on the stage was shocked and didn't know what happened for a moment
Even the emperor above the North Taiwan looked gloomy. Although the mask was covering nearly half, the national teacher Bu Xuansi, who stood beside him, seemed to feel something. Suddenly, he said sinisterly: This ordinary man in the He family dares to feed evil dogs. Three years ago, the old man has long disliked him. If he meets him on the field later, he will kill the dog.
The Xiaoyao Langjun on the lower right mat took a leisurely glance at the emperor, thinking about something
Three dogs approached the escaped centipede step by step. Although its size was huge, it was still far from the centipede. However, at this moment, the centipede, as giant as a python, curled up into a ball, and could not hold it all in battle.
Lu Anqing's expression changed drastically, and he muttered something. He waved the whisk in his hand, but saw the centipede trembling in place, and it seemed that he didn't even have the courage to escape.
The giant dog suddenly stood firm, and raised his head and barked at the centipede angrily. Everyone on the stage was shocked. Several palace maids were soft and their bodies were trembling. Suddenly, they saw the centipede trembling all over, and their giant body turned left and right and changed shape. Before everyone could see clearly, they had seen the centipede turn into an old plum tree with a cross.
Xiao Xuan suddenly realized: It turned out that this Taoist priest was not a bad practice, but just detained the plum spirit and transformed into a centipede, and attacked people with a fierce and fierce shape!
Lu Anqing waved the whisk quickly, and the plum tree was like a man, trying to escape outside the field. He Tiandiao whistled his lips and saw three dogs rising up. The lightning was already on the plum tree's body, and his mouth was sucked into pieces.
Xiao Xuan saw it in his eyes and felt very reluctant in his heart. He thought: The plum tree needs to be a chance to practice for at least hundreds of years before it can become a spirit, but today it is ruined. It's really pitiful and lamentable.
But He Tiandiao said lightly: Detaining flowers and trees is a Taoist exquisite and elegant technique, but you can use it and refine evil forms, and you cannot keep it.
Lu Anqing's face turned pale, he stood on the sidelines for a while and said twice, "Okay, I just flicked my sleeves and flew back to the stage."
Suddenly, the head official of the palace on the North Platform said loudly: He Tiandi won two consecutive games in Demon Castle and has been selected for the second round of competition. Please return to the seat for a while. Please give me a sign to the fourth place. The fifth person will be named and enter the competition!
He Tianpeng returned to the stage with his head held high, passed by Gong Shihong's table, hurriedly stopped his arrogant look, and bowed respectfully.
Even if it is Erlang Zhenjun’s Snow Sky Dog, I’m afraid it’s just that! Gong Shihong said with a smile
Don't dare, don't dare, the adults are over-reward. He Tiandiu said panic and returned to the table, feeling very proud.
He Zhenyuan remained silent and waited for his son to sit down beside him, and suddenly whispered: You kid, you are so ignorant, you are too ignorant on the court just now
He Tiandiao was stunned and argued in a low voice: The child didn't want to do anything too much, but those two guys were despicable, so he taught them some lessons.
He Zhenyuan didn't look at him and sighed slightly: Well, this gambling fight is about to offend people, but if you walk outside in the future, you must be careful about these people who have fought.
Xiao Xuan, who was next to the table, was panicked and touched the Ruyi Bag on his waist: The three god dogs were so fierce. It seems that the dragon could not fight it. If the big treasure met it, it would be afraid that it would be a good fortune... I was nervous again: If you lose, you should not bite it.
The next game was very fierce, and the winner was very tight. After more than ten bets, there was only one who won two games in a row, but it was a pair of brothers from the Wushi family of Langya, brother Mingjing and brother Mingjue, and the name of Langya Double Bi. The two of them controlled a pair of spiritual cranes with flutes, easily and gracefully defeated two opponents in a row, and entered the second round.
He Zhenyuan praised: Since our family finally produced talents, these two brothers have become very popular recently, and they have killed many evil spirits. They are my fellow men.
He Tiandiao said lightly: I only pray for the next round of competition, brothers, don’t meet my Demon Castle
Xiao Xuanxin said: It turns out he is a famous person, no wonder he is so powerful
At this time, the middle-aged alchemist who was a famous master of Tianxiang Sect of the Great Armor Sect. His surname was Zhong and Jin, and his name was Dianjin Holy Hand. He controlled a bronze beast with a rune that was completely defeated by a rival.
The Golden Escape Armored Soldier is very strong among the five elements and is the most difficult to control. He Zhenyuan nodded and said: The Tianxiang Sect’s armor technique is indeed amazing. It’s no wonder that it can be as famous as the mechanical techniques of Tianji Island. This person is the junior brother of the sect leader Zhou Jingyuan, and his cultivation level is firmly ranked among the top ten in the sect.
He Tiandiu said in a narrow mind: This person will definitely win two consecutive games. If he meets him in the next round, he will be an opponent!
But I heard the head official of the palace on the North Taiwan whistle loudly: Please give me the number 17th sign to appear... The voice paused, and then shouted loudly: Please invite the famous Donghai scholar Xiaoyao Langjun!
Then he saw Xiaoyao's husband standing up from the table, bowing to the emperor, and slowly flying off the stage with a masked Li Ji beside him. Ling Xu is the wind and the heavenly beings
The sky suddenly roared in the Tianwu Palace, and there was a stir on the three platforms.
Xiao Xuan held his eyes tightly, looked at this Xiaoyao husband, and then looked at the masked Li Ji, and felt pleasing to the eyes.
Xiaoyao Langjun bowed to the opposite side and smiled: Master, please
Zhong Jin looked arrogant and suddenly said: I heard that last month on the Holy Holy Platform, you won several games in a row with one mechanism. I wonder if this is the case?
This... Xiaoyao Langjun said: At the banquet that day, everyone was just drinking to help the fun, so there was no need to worry about the outcome
Zhong Jindao: In today's game, will you still play as an agency on the same day?
It is the Xiaoyao Langjun
Then... Zhong Jin stopped: In today's bet, can you and I add a small lottery?
Oh, what's the lottery? Xiaoyao Langjun asked with a smile
If you win, what if you ask the beauty beside you to take off the veil? Zhong Jindao
The stage started to stir up again, and Xiao Xuan said in his heart: This lottery ticket is a bit rude!
Xiaoyao Langjun still smiled: I dare to ask the master, why is this?
Zhong Jin said: There are rumors in the martial arts world that Wuxia, the Fairy of the Evil Palace, ran away that year, and it has something to do with you. I wonder if this rumor is true or false?
It's true. The Xiaoyao Langjun responded, as if he was talking about something that was ordinary
There was an uproar on the stage, and many people whispered
The Evil Palace is one of the righteous sects in the realm. He has always hated evil like a grudge. In the same way as Tiandao Pavilion, Shushan Sect is a mortal enemy of evil demons. The top sects are like clouds. The five palace masters in the world not only have extremely high cultivation, but also have beautiful and beautiful colors, making the evil demons in the world both hate and covet. At the peak, a sudden change occurred. The fourth palace master, Xueyu Xianniang, was gone, and the fifth palace master, Wuxia Fairy Lu Yanying, disappeared, and his vitality was greatly damaged from then on.
The Bixie Palace has always been resentful of this and kept silent to the outside world. However, the two palace masters in various circles have fallen into the clutches of demons. One of them seems to have something to do with a big demon in the demon world; the other is even more unbearable, and it is suspected to be taken away by the Xiaoyao Sect of the East China Sea. However, the truth is like a cloud and fog, and it has not yet been understood.
Zhong Jin was slightly surprised. This matter was dangerous and secret. At this time, he was very surprised. He thought the other party would deny it or avoid answering it. However, he answered so much, but he simply said: My junior brother has some connection with the Xie Bi Palace. At the banquet that day, he asked for verification. Although it was abrupt, the beauty beside you destroyed the armored soldiers who were practicing with my junior brother's life in the name of a competition. This is too much.
Xiao Xuan suddenly realized: It turned out that this person stood up for his junior brother!
Who is your junior brother? Xiaoyao Langjun narrowed his eyes slightly, and he couldn't seem to remember which one it was
Have you forgotten the young master? It was probably the short Donggua who jumped out that night to ask Sister Ying and me to take off the veil. The masked Li Ji next to her said, her voice was tender and crisp, very pleasant
A man suddenly stood up on the east platform, with a short, fat and round figure. It was Zhong Jin's master Zhu Zhong who pointed at the field and cursed: You witch! How could you be that little bitch in the West Sea? She was humiliated. Not only did she feel ashamed to live in the world, she also had to be with the East China Sea traitors. She really humiliated the water clan sea world and lost all your face! Now that she has no shame to meet people, she has to hide and cover them all day long?
Xiao Xuan heard that he was extremely scolding, frowned slightly, and was confused. Suddenly, he heard He Tiandiu, who was in the neighbor's house, whisper: Is this woman the Ninth Princess of the West Sea that was robbed by Xiaoyao Langjun? It seems that she has really surrendered to that lewd!
He Zhenyuan whispered: Don’t say too much!
Xiao Xuan looked at the Xiaoyao husband again and thought to himself: This person gave the emperor filthy medicine, and now many people scolded him. I'm afraid he's really evil, but unfortunately he looks good
Tianxiang Sect is a famous sect that has entered the world in the earth. It has many disciples and has a wide influence. Its reputation was originally similar to Tianji Island, but in recent years, the dynasty has valued the disciples of Tianji Island. The emperor even regarded his elder Bu Xuansi as the national teacher, and the two factions were only opened.
Many disciples of Tianxiang Sect were very unwilling to accept it, and Zhu Zhongbing was one of them. He was good at controlling earth escape and was very famous. He set foot in Yujing and wanted to compete with Tianji Island for some reason, but he had a chance to cope with Xiaoyao's husband, but he had completely destroyed his power. So he rushed back to the door for help, invited his senior brother Zhong Jin to attend the fairy conference and found an opportunity to get back to his face.
Just in the words, it was not that enemies would not get together, both sides met in the first round of the game.
Xiaoyao's face darkened
Zhong Jinsenran stared at him, his hands in his sleeves pressed the seal, and the bronze beast on the field was ready to go
The masked Li Ji suddenly raised her left arm, and a heart-beating hand that was sliding down from her sleeve was exposed. She pinched an apricot-bottomed silver flower handkerchief with the other hand and began to wrap her left palm around her, revealing only a few jade fingers that were as beautiful as bamboo shoots.
Everyone didn't understand why, but they attracted her slender hands and beauty.
What a pity that this handkerchief. Xiaoyao Langjun sighed slightly and looked at the opposite side: Since that's the case, it's not impossible to add a lottery... What if this side wins by chance?
As long as you can win, you will do whatever you want. Zhong Jin said lightly that although the other party was regarded as a guest of honor by the emperor, he was favored by his strange and lewd skills. He was just a thief who steals fragrance and jade. He still didn't care about such filth.
Xiaoyao's husband said slowly: Then that's it. If you win here, you will ask your junior brother to get out of the stage and kowtow three times to my woman. Otherwise... even if you escape back to Shenbing Ridge, I'm afraid there will be no more time.
Everyone on the stage was filled with fear, and Zhong Jin's expression changed drastically, saying: Do you have such ability?
Is it true? Xiaoyao Langjun said softly, his face was extremely handsome, and at this moment there seemed to be a smile on the corner of his mouth, but it made people feel cold
Before Zhong Jin could answer, he suddenly saw a shadow flashing across the opposite side. The masked Li Ji on the opposite side had disappeared, and he shouted anxiously: Be careful!
Zhu Zhong on the East Platform suddenly had a flash of eyes, and several crisp sounds of banging sounds in his ears. He was so painful on his face that he was about to hit him. He suddenly found that his wrists were being fixed, but they were tied together with a blue silk ribbon shining with waves. He could not move at all.
It was not until this time that everyone saw that the masked Li Ji appeared on the east platform, hanging in front of Zhu Zhong in the air, and the hand wrapped in a handkerchief was slowly retracting.
Zhu Zhong's nose and mouth were bleeding, and his already fat face was swollen, and his eyebrows were squeezed into a thread in a blink of an eye.
Phantom smoke wave, step a thousand miles! The dragon clan's supreme body technique He Zhenyuan shouted lightly
