I formed the strongest swordsman group

"..."

The Tianzhang Academy didn't seem to be surprised by Tian Cangxiao's remarks.

She calmly looked at the night scene in the distance... After a long while, she slowly asked in a tone neither sad nor happy:

"how you said that?"

"...Master Yu Du. The talent and character that Ju Qingdeng showed today... makes me feel terrible."

"It doesn't matter if he is talented in swordsmanship, but I didn't expect him to have such an amazing talent in ninjutsu."

"Unless he himself is willing to degenerate in the future, his future is bound to be limitless."

Tiancang Xiao raised his white eyebrows, and glanced at Tianzhang Courtyard in front of him.

After confirming that there was no abnormal reaction in Tianzhangyuan, he just took a deep breath and continued:

"It may be our great fortune... or our great misfortune that Mr. Yu Du can accept such a talent into our new imperial family."

"If he can serve us wholeheartedly and faithfully, that would be the best."

"But if he has a different heart..."

Tiancang Xiao didn't continue to speak. He stopped his words at a just right place, allowing Tianzhangyuan to imagine the next content.

After pausing for a moment, Tian Cangxiao changed the subject:

"Although that Ju Qingdeng appears to be indifferent to fame and fortune, and has nothing to do with the world... but no one can tell whether he will have any strange desires... or ambitions in the future!"

"So, it may be presumptuous for me to say this, but...Master Yu Du, please keep an eye on the orange green board."

"Don't let 'King Ni'... really become a 'King'...!"

After finishing speaking, Tiancang Xiao humbly lowered his head, waiting for Tianzhangyuan's response.

Tianzhang Court didn't let Tian Cangxiao wait too long.

As soon as Tiancangxiao's words fell, Tianzhangyuan smiled as if hearing some interesting anecdote:

"I see. Thank you for your suggestion, I will seriously consider your suggestion. Is there anything else you want to report to me?"

Tiancang Xiao shook his head: "No more..."

"Report to me if you have nothing to do, then leave first. Now I want to watch the night scene quietly and blow the night breeze alone."

"yes."

After Tian Cangxiao answered "Yes" and gave a light salute to Tianzhang Court, he quickly walked towards the darkness not far away.

Outside the torii of Tsukimiya Shrine, only Tenzhangin stood alone.

Poker face.

Like eyes looking at another world, staring straight at the distant sky.

...

...

the next day—

In the first year of Wanyan (1860), August 30——

The current Japanese calendar is still the old one...that is, the lunar calendar.

There is no 31st day in each month of the lunar calendar, so today is the last day of August.

That is to say——tomorrow is the day when the long-awaited Isamu Kondo and the girl named Matsui Tsune get married!

In order to welcome the arrival of this important day, all the diners, including Yongcang and Saito, were mobilized to clean the inside and outside of the test hall.

Qingdeng also came to help, but he didn't do any business today. Starting this morning, I started to help with the cleaning, all as a day off for myself who has been so busy recently.

In the evening, in order to celebrate Isamu Kondo's success in getting out of the singles and no longer being a bachelor who is nearly 30 years old, everyone held a lively celebration reception.

...

That night--

Edo, Koishikawa Kohinata Yanagi-cho, Shouweikan——

"Everyone! Please look over here!"

Harada's loud shout drew everyone's sight and attention.

Harada let out a belch, full of the smell of alcohol, and then stood up, retracted his hands into the bathrobe, poked them out from the skirt, and took off the clothes on his upper body.

"Everyone, have you seen it?"

Harada pointed to a large horizontal scar on his stomach.

"This is the scar left by my seppuku!"

"I think back then, before I became a vagrant, when I was an official in the Iyo Matsuyama Domain, an annoying guy slandered me as a 'little official who didn't even know how to do seppuku'."

"I just like to be serious. Didn't he say that I can't even do seppuku? I pulled out my wakizawa on the spot, stabbed it into my stomach, and showed him seppuku on the spot!"

"Hahahaha! That man was so frightened that he sat on the ground! I can remember his dumbfounded expression for a lifetime!"

"The thing that made the man feel even more dumbfounded is still to come! I stabbed the knife directly into my stomach and pulled out such a big gash, but I didn't die! After a period of treatment, I became alive again It's over!"

"Since then, I have gained a nickname: 'Immortal Harada'!"

After quietly listening to Harada bragging about the origin of the scar on his stomach, Qingdeng sighed wryly:

"Harada...we've heard your story of 'Seppuku' many times..."

At every banquet, whenever Harada was drunk, he would definitely lift up his shirt and tell everyone the story of his "hip-kiri-kiri, and he didn't die" back then.

Qingdeng couldn't count the number of times he heard Harada brag about his "heroic past".

However, Harada's sudden storytelling played a positive role in setting off the current atmosphere of the banquet.

"Yong, drink less, you are the protagonist of tomorrow's wedding."

Shusuke, who was sitting side by side with Kondo, persuaded Aiko beside him.

"If you're so hungover that you won't wake up tomorrow or smell like alcohol, what's the point?"

"Huh? Hahahaha! Father, don't worry! This little wine won't make me drunk!"

Kondo, whose cheeks were already flushed from drinking, didn't listen to his old father's persuasion at all, after laughing a few times, he clapped his palms vigorously a few times.

"Once... the wine is coming up... Hey! Ah Sui! Let's sing some songs to cheer up the fun!"

The banquet celebrating Kondo's divorce... How could Hijikata, who had a close relationship with Kondo, be absent?

Sitting next to Kondo, Hijikata, who also drank a lot of wine and blushed a lot, put down the chopsticks in his hand without saying a word after hearing what Kondo said, beat the beat with both hands, and sang:

"Ah~~"

"It's so cute~~"

"Make a wish to Lord Baishan~~"

"Serve tea ~ cut off salt ~ even fast for 3721 days~~"

"Even so~ If there is a predestined relationship and no support~then there is no god~~"

"Ah~~"

This was the first time Qingdeng heard Tufang sing.

I have to say - very well sung.

Singing a cappella without any accompaniment can still fascinate almost everyone, including Qing Deng.

Everyone put down their bowls, chopsticks and wine bottles one after another, and listened quietly to Hijikata's singing.

The hall, which was filled with the sound of toasting, suddenly became extremely silent.

Qingdeng didn't have any research on music, so he could only roughly hear the folk songs from where it should be from the style of the music.

With a beautiful singing voice and that handsome face of Tukata... Those who don't know, probably will think of Tukata as a well-known singing and dancing artist.

After Tufang finished singing, everyone applauded quickly.

Harada, the big kid, drummed the most vigorously—he was yelling loudly, lying on his back on his belly, clapping his hands while clapping his soles of his feet.

"Hikata, you sing really well! I didn't expect you to be so good at singing. What song did you sing just now?"

After finishing speaking, Yongcang, who was sitting shoulder to shoulder with Hijikata, picked up the wine bottle at hand and filled Hijikata's wine glass.

Hijikata grinned, accepting everyone's compliments unceremoniously and modestly.

"The song I sang just now is from the hometown of me and Akatsuki: a folk song in the Tama area: 'Tama's Ise Onto', isn't it nice? Don't look at me like this. I still like singing and dancing, haiku and other elegant things. things."

Inoue interjected with a smile:

"Tufang! Let's do another song!"

"No, no, no."

Earthwork waved his hand.

"Singing is boring! Let's chat!"

Hijikata drank the drink that Yongcura had just filled for him in one gulp, then turned his head and looked at Kondo.

"Ah Sheng, what a dog. The past of me, you, the chief executive, and Uncle Yuan are still in front of us. I can't imagine that you will get married and start a family in just a blink of an eye."

"Hee hee hee~"

Kondo showed a simple and honest smirk.

"What? A Sui, are you envious? If you are envious, hurry up and find a good woman too. If I remember correctly, you are 25 years old this year, right?"

Tufang sneered, curled his lips, and waved his hands.

"Marriage is just a kind of bondage to me. I don't plan to get married and start a family in my life. But, again... Among the so many people present, except for the master and the wife, the sister and brother-in-law of the chief executive, only Only you, Ah Sheng, are not single anymore."

Kondo was stunned: "Really?"

"Yes." Tu frowned at Qingdeng and the others, "Do you think any of us are married?"

"It seems to be... Uncle Yuan, are you still planning to get married?"

At the banquet scene at this time, apart from the elderly couple Zhou Zhu and Abi, Gensaburo Inoue, who is 31 years old this year, is the oldest among the crowd.

"I haven't met a woman who can make my heart beat."

Genzaburo Inoue smiled without thinking.

"Also, to me, the testing hall and the natural mind flow are far more important than getting a wife and having children."

"I want to take advantage of the heyday of spring and autumn, and devote more time and energy to helping the Weiwei Hall and Natural Lixinliu become the world's best sword hall and swordsmanship!"

"Yuan..." Zhou Zhu, who was greatly moved by Inoue's answer, said sincerely, "I am very touched that you are willing to dedicate yourself to the test hall and the natural Lixinliu...but you really don't have to sacrifice your self for this." happiness……"

Inoue smiled and said nothing. He just silently picked up the wine glass at hand and toasted Zhou Zhu from a distance.

"Uncle Yuan, are you still unwilling to get married..." Tufang flattened his lips regretfully...then turned to look at Qingdeng, "Ju, what about you? When do you plan to get married?"

"Um?"

Qingdeng, who was suddenly called by name, was taken aback for a moment... how come he is so well-behaved, and the conversation suddenly came to my head.

In terms of age, Qingdeng, who is only 18 years old this year, is one of the youngest people present.

Only Souji and Saito, who are both 16 years old this year, are younger than Qingdeng.

If you don't ask so many people who are older than me and should be married more than me, why are you asking about me?

Tufang understood the confused look on Qingdeng's face, and let out a meaningful "hehehe" laugh:

"Ju, don't you and the little girl from Qianshiwu have a very good relationship, and they all called each other 'Qing Deng' and 'A Wu'."

The little girl in Qianshiwu...it's obvious who Hijikata is talking about.

"Oh, that's right, Tachibana, you and Chiba Sanako from the Little Chiba Sword Gym seem to have a good relationship."

"Tsk tsk tsk, orange, I didn't expect you to be quite popular with women."

Earth Fang raised the wine bottle, took a big gulp of "gudong gudong", moistened his throat, and then said to Qingdeng in a teasing tone:

"Whether it's the little girl from Qianshiwu or Chiba Sanako, they are all good women. Especially Chiba Sanako, this kind of woman needs to have a face, a figure, and a temperament , if you want a woman with a family, you can't find it."

"Which of them do you like, Tachibana? Do you plan to marry either of them?"

Throughout the ages, love gossip is one of people's favorite topics.

After Tufang brought up this topic, everyone, including master and master's wife, focused their attention on Qingdeng.

"Uh..." Qing Deng was at a loss for words with an embarrassed expression on his face.

Speaking of Kinoshita Mai and Sanako...Qingdeng recalled the embarrassing scene when the two daughters found out that he had lived an extremely fulfilling life in the three-day fireworks display a few days ago...

After the fireworks display, Qingdeng was busy meeting Tokugawa Ieshige and Tenzhangin, so he didn't meet Kinoshita Mai and Sanako again.

Having not met them for a few days, Qingdeng wanted to meet the second daughter...but he was a little afraid to meet them...

Previously, because of the sudden appearance of Tada Koemon, who suddenly went crazy and killed people with a big gun, Qingdeng "dodged a catastrophe".

However, what should come will always come... Qingdeng hasn't explained to Kinoshita Mai and Sanako what is going on with his extremely fulfilling fireworks display...

According to the values ​​​​of this era, hanging out alone with a single girl is an extremely ambiguous behavior. People often regard this kind of man and woman who can travel alone as the kind of relationship that should be able to get married immediately.

Not to mention the places to go to play, or the fireworks festival, which is full of charming atmosphere.

So from the perspective of this era, Qingdeng's behavior of going to the fireworks festival with different girls for two consecutive days to watch the fireworks is simply too coquettish.

From Kinoshita Mai's point of view, it was Qingdeng who took the initiative to invite her to the fireworks display. As a result, Qingdeng went to "revisit the old place" with another girl who was more beautiful and outstanding than her the next day.

From Sanako's point of view, Qingdeng has already developed an ambiguous relationship with a certain woman, but he does not hesitate to trick her, an ignorant girl, into participating in the fireworks festival.

One feels that she has been cheated on, and the other feels that she has become a mistress intervening in other people's emotional relationships... Although none of them have established a substantial relationship with Qingdeng, their actual feelings are indeed like this.

Although the sudden question by the earth party caught Qingdeng by surprise...but the question by the earth's party successfully aroused Qingdeng's deep thinking.

Qingdeng lowered his eyes, looking at his own face that was squished in the wine glass in his hand.

There was no sound for a long time.

Qingdeng, who has not responded for a long time, has been silent...

I don't know if it's a coincidence, or what—every time everyone in the test guard hall holds a banquet, the seat of the chief executive will always happen to be next to Qingdeng.

The chief executive, with subtle and imperceptible movements, glanced at Qing Deng who had been silent all this time, and laughed abruptly a few times:

"Hahahaha! Mr. Hijikata, why are you like a matchmaker, asking all kinds of outstanding single young people. You are a 25-year-old guy who is still alone, how can you have the confidence to urge other people to get married!"

"Cut." Tufang curled his lips, "The reason why I am still a widow until now is entirely because I don't want to have another burden that will restrict my freedom. If I want to get married, I can immediately find a lot of people who are willing to marry me woman!"

"Why are you so hostile to marriage?" The director general asked, "Isn't it great to have one more person who can rely on each other?"

"Hmph." Tu Fang sneered, "I don't need others to be my support. I'm a widow all my life, and I can still live a good life! You know, when I..."

...

Unknowingly, the topic changed from "Qingdeng's marriage" to "Tufang's glorious past"...

Everyone's attention was naturally diverted from Qingdeng's body.

Seeing this, Qingdeng let out a silent sigh.

Then he put his upper body close to the chief minister beside him, and said softly at a volume that only he and the chief minister could hear clearly:

"Okita-kun, thank you just now..."

Qingdeng is not a fool, he... No, most of the people present, including Tufang, should be able to see that the chief executive was helping Qingdeng out of the siege just now.

A person like Tufang who is rude on the surface but actually has a high EQ must have seen his question just now, making it difficult for Qingdeng to answer.

Now that the chief executive made a noise to help Qingdeng out of the siege, he also took advantage of the trend to lead the topic elsewhere.

"Hahahaha, it's okay, it's okay, you're welcome."

The director general raised a big smile to Qingdeng.

Infected by his smile, Qingdeng also showed a slight smile.

"Look back and think about it carefully..." Only Qingdeng himself and the director general could hear the voice again, "Director general, it seems that I haven't thanked you yet..."

"Thank you? Thank you for what?"

"The fireworks display a few days ago, thank you so much for your kind words..."

On August 25th... the last night of the fireworks festival, thanks to the chief executive's witty extreme maneuvers, he said many good things about Qingdeng to Kinoshita Mai and Sanako, and successfully raised some points that were scattered in the atmosphere at that time. The suffocating atmosphere between Qingdeng, Kinoshita Mai and Sanako.

After understanding what Qingdeng was referring to, the director general smiled casually:

"Oh, you said this...it's just a trivial matter, don't be so serious to me because of this trivial matter, after all..."

The chief executive's voice suddenly paused.

Her eyes wandered as if she couldn't calm down, and once she made a gesture to keep silent, but she changed her mind and showed a slightly stiff smile...

"After all—the two of us are good friends and good partners. Isn't it natural for friends to support and help each other?"

After finishing speaking, the general manager picked up the wine glass on the dining table and drank it down in a "gudong gudong" heroic gulp.

"Speaking of which... Mr. Ju, I'm actually quite curious."

"Huh?" Qingdeng cast a puzzled look at the general manager, "What are you curious about?"

"Mr. Hijikata's question."

While showing a heartless smile, the director moved his butt in Qingdeng's direction, almost touching Qingdeng's shoulders.

"Tachibana-kun, for Kinoshita-san and Sanako-san... which one do you like?"

"Ha..." In order to get rid of the confused expression he was showing right now, Qingdeng pretended to pour wine into his glass.

Back to the question that made him flustered just now...

To be honest, Qingdeng has never thought about this issue carefully... No, he has been deliberately avoiding this issue subconsciously.

I have very special feelings for Kinoshita Mai - this is certain. Otherwise, she wouldn't have invited Kinoshita Mai to watch the fireworks.

But after going through so many things with Sanako, it seems that I can't describe my feelings for Sanako with just the word "friendship"... Otherwise, I wouldn't want to comfort Sanako and let Sanako Get happy as soon as possible and force him to go to the lively fireworks festival to play.

Which one do you like best? Have you ever thought about marrying any of them?

A clear, resonant, and at the same time hard to say answer, if you say it, you will definitely receive strange glances from many people, exploded in Qingdeng's mind...

Qingdeng looked at the general manager secretly with a strange expression... Seriously thinking about whether to tell the truth to the general manager, and tell the general manager what he really thinks in his heart.

Seeing Qingdeng's tangled expression, the chief misunderstood that Qingdeng didn't know how to answer.

Ever since, the general manager gave a "hee hee" and showed Qing Dengzhan a big smile with his eyes narrowed into a pair of crescent moons.

"Mr. Orange, I really don't look like you."

The director raised his hand and patted Qingdeng's back.

"The Ju-jun I know is a person who is quick and decisive no matter what he thinks or does."

"Why did that decisive Ju Qingdeng suddenly become a mother-in-law? This kind of question should not be so difficult to answer, right? Just follow your own desires and your own inner thoughts..."

The boss hasn't finished speaking yet——

"Director!"

A loud drink interrupted her.

Kondo, who was drunk, walked quickly towards the chief executive with unsteady steps and a smile on his face.

"What are you whispering to Mr. Ju? Stop chatting! Come and dance with us!"

"Dancing?" The chief was startled, and then looked towards the center of the hall—while she was whispering to Qingdeng, Hijikata, Inoue, and Zhou Zhu stood in the center of the hall at some point, and danced Kondo and Hijikata's hometown: dances in the Tama area.

Affected by alcohol, and the rest of the people except Hijikata obviously had no dance skills, so although Zhou Zhu's dance cannot be said to be ugly, it can also be said to be a "dance of demons".

"Only you, me, father, Ah Sui, and Uncle Yuan can dance our Tama dance, come and dance with us!"

"Huh? I... ah!"

Before the general manager had time to express any opinions, he was dragged out of the seat by Kondo, and dragged the general manager to the center of the hall that has now become a dance floor.

——Quick and decisive...Follow your own desires...Follow your own inner thoughts...

Because I wanted to watch the chief executive dance for no reason, so not only did he not offer any help to the chief executive, but he looked at the figure of the chief executive being dragged away with a "motherly smile" on Qing Deng's face, and silently repeated it in his heart What the chief executive said to him just now.

A series of firm eyes that seemed to have made up their minds burst out from Qingdeng's pupils.

...

...

When the chief commander blushed with shame, he danced the Tama dance with Kondo and the others in a movement of "twisting his hands and feet as if he had his own consciousness"——

"..." Hikaru Okita peeked expressionlessly at Qingdeng who was concentrating on watching the dance.

Okita Hikaru and his wife also went to the banquet tonight, and they were sitting not far from Qingdeng and Zongsi.

As early as just now, when Qingdeng and the chief executive were whispering, Okita Hikaru was like a cat smelling fishy, ​​on the surface he was still eating quietly, but in fact he was throwing at Qingdeng and the others uninterruptedly. Sizing eyes.

Because Okita Hikaru's "peeping" action was very subtle, Qingdeng and the chief executive never found out that there was a wife who was very worried about their sister's future, and they had been quietly paying attention to the two of them...

When "peeping" Qingdeng and the chief executive, Okita Hikaru maintained a calm and indifferent look throughout the whole process, nothing unusual, making people wonder what she was thinking...

...

...

At this very moment—

Edo, somewhere——

A pair of middle-aged men and women wearing bamboo hats and plain clothes stood in the middle of an intersection.

The two appear to be in their early 40s.

The man was wearing a dark blue dress and a black hakama, and a light onion-colored haori, with an ordinary long and short sword on his left waist. There were many traces of vicissitudes on his delicate face without a beard.

Her hair was black and thick, with no yuedai head, only a neat bun, and only the temples were slightly gray.

The skin is fair, and it is obvious that he has reached the age where he is prone to getting fat and getting a big belly, but he has a long and slender body.

Generally speaking, he is a middle-aged man with nothing outstanding in appearance - the only conspicuous aspect of this man... or something worth mentioning is his right arm.

The entire right arm of the middle-aged man seemed to have been scorched by fire, and the color of his skin was a very strange burnt black.

On the contrary, the middle-aged woman who was standing side by side with this middle-aged man had quite a lot to say about her appearance in detail.

This middle-aged woman is a veritable "beautiful woman" and "mature, charming wife".

Bright eyes are like stars on a summer night.

The bridge of the nose is handsome and straight.

Small and exquisite lips reveal a delicate and rosy color.

The skin is fair and fair. Too much white looks morbid, too dark and beautiful and damaged.

The almost black hair is twisted into a bun that symbolizes a wife.

The size is not bad for women in this era. Converted to the length unit of the modern earth, the height of this beautiful woman is about 1.55 meters.

Although the corners of the eyes, mouth and other places have grown small wrinkles that symbolize the traces of time, the charm still remains.

There is no doubt - when this beautiful woman was young, she must have been a first-class beauty.

In addition to appearance, the beautiful woman's figure is also excellent.

She was wearing a bright red bathrobe, and the wide white belt tied around her waist stretched to the lower end of the southern hemisphere.

The thin fabric that fits closely to the body, as well as the belt that highlights the presence of something, will greatly complement the beautiful woman's impressive figure full of fatal charm.

In a word——she is a beautiful woman with a mature charm in appearance and temperament, and a strong attraction to men who have inherited the legacy of Wei Wu.

"Tsk... Where exactly is this place?" The beautiful woman raised the bamboo hat on her head slightly and looked around.

"Wait...let me look at the map..." The middle-aged man reached into his lapel and took out a very small map from his pocket, "um...here...this should be...Takeuchi Town .Then...go forward to Takamachi, and to the right is Haramachi..."

"Is this old map of yours reliable?" The beautiful woman put her hands on her hips and said angrily, "We have been following this map of yours all along, but we still got lost."

"It should be...reliable." The middle-aged man scratched his hair guiltily, "I bought this map 10 years ago. In just 10 years, the street scene in Edo should not have too many, too many big change."

After speaking, the middle-aged man buried his face closer to the map in his hand. Study the map with great concentration.

"Tsk...it's late at night, and there's not even a ghost on the street, and I can't find anyone if I want to ask for directions..." The beautiful woman sighed helplessly, then put down her hands on her hips, and said with a look of reminiscence on her face. Scanning the surrounding street scene, "Speaking of which...we seem to have been here before, and I have an impression of this neighborhood."

"I remember that this place used to be a Wufu store, and that place used to be a dim sum shop, and the roads there weren't that wide...Edo has changed so much, it feels like it has become a strange new city."

"Hahaha, think about it carefully, we haven't been to Edo for a long time."

"Well, yes." The middle-aged man with a slight smile echoed softly.

"After attending Isamu Kondo's wedding, shall we stay in Edo for a few more days?" the beautiful woman suggested.

"Yes." The middle-aged man nodded without thinking, "That's exactly what I mean."

"Ha ha ha, look! Am I right? This place is often passed by travelers! It is right to wait here!"

Suddenly, a hoarse and rude shout came from the middle-aged men and women.

The middle-aged men and women calmly followed the sound and raised their eyes, and saw four ronin wearing dirty clothes with knives on their waists, striding towards them swaggeringly.

The leader is a strong man with a lot of fat on his body, who is smiling grinningly at middle-aged men and women.

"Listen up, you two!"

The brawny man shouted with pride.

"We are people with lofty ideals against barbarians! We are running around to realize the great cause of 'removing barbarians'! The rise and fall of the world is everyone's responsibility! We don't force you to throw your head and blood like us. We only hope that we can provide some money, food and materials to support one time……"

"Edo is as chaotic as Kyoto."

The brawny man's "generous statement" had just started, but was interrupted by the beautiful woman in a calm tone.

"I thought Edo, as the center of the Edo shogunate, would have better public security... I never thought that even Edo would have so many scumbags who committed crimes in the name of 'removing barbarians'."

"What?" Hearing the beautiful woman call them scum, the strong man was startled for a moment, then his eyes widened suddenly, and he subconsciously raised his hand to touch the saber at his waist.

The right palm of the strong man just touched the hilt of the saber——

"It's so noisy..."

The middle-aged man slightly raised the edge of his hat, and glanced at the strong man with eyes so calm that even the word "stare" seemed too intense and inappropriate.

In the next moment, an incredible scene happened to the strong man.

"Well……!"

The strong man's face suddenly turned pale, and his legs seemed to have lost their bones. After struggling a few times, he collapsed on the ground in a face-down position, his body twitching slightly.

"Hey! What's the matter with you?"

"what happened?"

"Did you go crazy with the horns?"

...

The three companions of the strong man hurriedly helped the strong man up, only to find that he had passed out.

"He didn't have any kind of shat madness."

The middle-aged man said calmly while putting away the map in his hand.

"He was just stunned by my 'potential'."

Update 8500 today! Successfully kept the leopard head again!

For those book lovers who feel that the author cannot insist on daily updates of 8000, please stand up and apologize to me! (Leopard up.jpg)

You don't have to worry about having double monthly tickets at the end of the month. If you have a monthly ticket, just vote for this book. See "Author's Note" below for justification.

[Even if there are double monthly tickets at the end of the month, don't wait until the end of the month to vote! 】

[Even if there are double monthly tickets at the end of the month, don't wait until the end of the month to vote! 】

[Even if there are double monthly tickets at the end of the month, don't wait until the end of the month to vote! 】

The most important use of monthly tickets [is not quantity], but [the ranking of monthly tickets].

The higher the ranking on the monthly ticket list, the higher the exposure.

The reason why the author has been asking for votes is to make this book rank higher in this month's monthly vote list.

So voting at the end of the month is basically a waste of monthly tickets!

Because in the last 3 days of the end of the month, it doesn’t matter how high your ranking on the monthly ticket list is. There are only 3 days before the start of a new month. With such a few days, you won’t get much exposure at all.

So if you have votes in your hands, vote now instead of waiting until the end of the month. It is really a waste of votes to vote again at the end of the month.
