The Little King Next Door

Chapter 233

That night, in Double Moon City, inside a luxurious inn.

An aristocratic man who seemed to come from afar had just moved into a separate courtyard with a group of his men.

A customer who was also waiting for a room was dissatisfied and asked the owner why this group of people came later than them, but they lived in a separate courtyard as soon as they arrived.

The shopkeeper smiled kindly, "Because the guest had already sent a servant to settle the yard, but the master came late, probably because he was delayed on the way."

This kind of situation is very common during the big competition. During this period of time, all the hotels and inns in Twin Moon City are full, full of spectators who came from all over to watch the big competition and some people who want to try their luck.Those who are rich and powerful will send their servants over early to book a place to stay. Not only are the inns in Double Moon City full, but even the worst rented houses are all rented out early.

The rented houses and inns on the street closest to the school camps are the first to be booked.

Many people not only want to watch the wonderful school competitions, they also want to take this opportunity to see if they can catch the eyes of a certain boss and be specially recruited into the school.Especially those geniuses who missed the school's admissions season.

Because in previous years, many geniuses were picked up by the school bosses in the city where the competition was held.Later, as long as the schools intend to enroll students, they will even set up special enrollment points in the city where the competition is held, and conduct talent tests on children and teenagers who come to try their luck. If they encounter particularly outstanding seedlings, they will be specially recruited.

In doing so, those who missed the admissions season, those who thought they were talented but wanted to participate in more school selections, and the nearby locals all began to run to the venue of the contest.

In this way, every time the contest is held, the city where the school is located will be particularly lively. At a glance, the roads are full of people.

Walking in Double Moon City now, you can hear everyone discussing the content of the big competition everywhere, and some outstanding students are repeatedly mentioned, such as the little leaf of Meteor.

And it was Sakir who was talked about the most tonight.

Who made Sakir the heir of the empire next door? People in Double Moon City loved seeing this embarrassment, and people in other countries and regions were also happy to see the joke of the heir of this huge empire.

"I heard that the great emperor has appeared."

"real or fake?"

"Really, he came forward and took away his grandnephew Thakir."

"Tsk, this heir has embarrassed the emperor. I suspect that this kid's inheritance rights will probably not be guaranteed."

"If you don't give it to him, who else can you give it to? The emperor's only daughter died young, and now the only close relatives left are the Duke of Mingguang and his son. If Saqir has no inheritance rights, only the Duke of Mingguang is left, but the Duke of Mingguang also There is only one son, Sakir... tsk tsk."

"Did you all forget one thing? The emperor is still very young. If he wants to have a child, he can have it, right?"

"That's right, even if you can't have children, learn about the demon sacrifice technique. As long as you can pay the price to make the demons fall in love, they can give you a healthy offspring."

"It turned out that it was a demon seed when it was born?"

"The demon seed is better than that stupid and poisonous Sakir, right?"

"That's right, I think the demons are pretty good. The Linyuan School of Magic has brought a lot of demon students. I heard that many of their professors are also demons."

In the most luxurious room in the independent courtyard.

The aristocrats who had just arrived, half-aged men in gorgeous costumes, took off their coats and put on soft indoor shoes under the service of servants.

Several men dressed as mercenaries stood respectfully not far away.

One of the men, who came early and dressed as a warrior, was reporting the latest news to the half-old man: "It has been confirmed that the great emperor has indeed come to the competition venue to watch the competition."

The half-old man didn't speak.

A horse-faced man among the mercenaries frowned and said, "Will this one affect our plan?"

Reporter: "No. That man is very freewheeling. He probably came here to see how his great-nephew is doing. Now that Sakir has greatly humiliated him, he may have brought Sakir back to Silver Moon. empire."

"It's best if that's the case. Otherwise, let him find Duke Saed..."

"Well, you're right, we still have to keep an eye on that great emperor, lest he meddle indiscriminately and ruin our plan."

After several mercenaries and the reporter discussed in detail how to keep an eye on the great emperor, they looked at the half-old man together, waiting for him to make a final decision.

The half-old man turned around. He didn't say how to follow the great emperor, but mentioned the key point of his visit this time: "I have received the information about the little leaf from the meteor you mentioned. That child really has you Said so well?"

The reporter took a step forward and said clearly: "It will only be better than our report. Although he was poisoned by Qianmu, according to the information we got, he has been poisoned by Qianmu for nearly a year, but He is still fine now, and this alone is enough for the higher authorities to investigate."

"Hmm." The half-old man didn't express his opinion.

The reporter said again: "How is this little leaf, and whether it agrees with the above request, you can take a look for yourself. He signed up for three competitions in total, and there is still one scroll that has not yet been compared, but the remaining competition items are gone. How much, either tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, will definitely be drawn."

"I see. I'll see for myself. If this little leaf is really as good as you said, then this time... um!" The half-old man suddenly pressed his forehead.

"My lord?" Several people shouted worriedly.

The half-old man just raised his hand, wanting to say that he was fine, but at this moment, the half-old man began to vomit blood non-stop, and the internal organs were spit out behind him.

"My lord!" Everyone was anxious.

"This is the power of the curse!" The half-old man locked on the reason almost immediately.

But who is cursing him?

And who can curse him?

Could it be Salman?

Did he spot him?

impossible!He was always careful and kept his hands and feet clean.Moreover, he came here to "search for goods" this time, so logically no one should know.

The half-old man asked his subordinates to be alert, and began to set up a magic circle while vomiting blood.

He wanted to fight back, and even more so, to block the curse.

But before he finished arranging the magic circle, the source of the curse suddenly disappeared, and he no longer felt the strong malice and killing intent.

At the same time, in his space ring, a net in a box also spontaneously ignited at this moment, and just turned into ashes.

It's a pity that the half-old man wanted to find out the source of the curse, so he didn't notice the change in the space ring at all, and the box had been placed for a long time, so he wouldn't check it if there was nothing wrong.

So this matter was ignored by him.

The night passed in a hurry, and many people felt that it was dawn before they closed their eyes.

In the morning, there was a magic circle competition, and someone noticed with sharp eyes that the little leaf of Meteor was not in the Meteor school team, including his elder brother Lei Mu, who also did not appear, and there were a few black-robed men in Meteor.

Wendi, who had just transferred to Meteorite, didn't show up either.

A boss came over to ask the vice principal, and joked that Xiao Yezi was also very proficient in the magic circle, why didn't he even sign up for the magic circle competition.

The vice-principal Gan sighed with a sad face: "Little Ye Zi is still young, no, I was exhausted last night after participating in so many competitions in a row. Alas, that pale face is uncomfortable for everyone. But he There is still a scroll to compete, and we all advised him not to participate."

"That's it."

Soon, the news that Xiao Ye Zi was exhausted spread throughout the venue.

Soon, the rumors became that the poison of the thousand trees on Xiao YeZi's body broke out, and Xiao YeZe might miss the scroll competition.

Some expressed regret, while others rejoiced.

Saed should have been high-fiving the news, but now he's really not smiling.

Since the morning, his face has been as ugly as the whole family has died.

And his face was ugly, not only because Sakir made a fool of himself yesterday and might be rejected by the emperor, but also a terrible thing happened to him last night for any male.

Saed has only one wife and no apparent lover, but everyone including his wife and his son know that the maids around him who serve him also play the role of Saed's lover.

It's just that Saed changes maids frequently, and no maid has ever been favored to the extent that it affects Mrs. Kari's status, so Mrs. Kari has always turned a blind eye to Saed's bullying of the maid.

If Saed particularly favors a maid, Mrs. Carrie is not in a hurry, she will only bring her over to torture her slowly when her husband dislikes that maid.

Didn't Saed know what happened to those maids who fell out of favor?

Of course he knew, but he didn't care about those maids at all.On the contrary, if those maids who have fallen out of favor can make his wife vent her anger instead of making his wife resent him, he still thinks those maids can be considered as useful.

For this reason, the maid serving Saed was always trembling, fearing that the Duke would take a fancy to her.

But since Saed would choose a certain woman to be his maid, it must be because that woman fits his taste very well.

Under such circumstances, it is naturally impossible for any maid to escape Saed's clutches.

After so many years, I don't know how many maids have been murdered by this couple, and I don't know how many young corpses are buried under the garden of Mingguang Duke's Mansion that blooms bright flowers all year round.

But there was a lucky one last night, and the maid was about to cry when she was left behind by Saed.

She was very frightened, and just when she thought she couldn't escape, the master suddenly told her to get out.

The little maid put on her clothes and ran away. She didn't understand anything, she didn't know what happened, she only knew that she had escaped.

After that, a more mature maid who had been serving Saed longer was called into the room.

But not long after, the maid also came out and was beaten with a black nose and a swollen face, saying that she was not good at serving.

After that, no maid was called in again.

If you just don't lift, that's fine.Saed is rich and powerful, and he has a lot of ways to restore his glory.

But the problem is that in the middle of the night, Saed found that not only did he not lift, but his area started to become red, swollen and festered. In the morning, it turned black and rotted. Then he just went to the toilet, and half of it fell off.

This kind of thing is not scary, what else is scary?

Saed immediately secretly found the pharmacist and asked him to check what was going on.

The pharmacist judged that he had mildew after examination.

Saed couldn't believe it, and said it was impossible, it was impossible for him to rot overnight after being fine before.

The pharmacist said that he was not good at medicine, he was only good at refining medicine, so he couldn't analyze what was going on.

Saed had to find the magician again.

Three magicians came one after another, two of them thought he was poisoned, and one thought he was cursed.

"Can I... still recover?" Saed asked tremblingly.

The three magicians pondered for a long time, and finally one of them replied: "It's impossible to grow back, maybe you can try transplanting."

Just transplant it, maybe he can take this opportunity to choose a better one.Saed comforted himself, and his complexion finally recovered.

The magician who said it was a curse added another sentence: "But if it is a curse, I'm afraid it will only end in the same way."

Saed is broken!Which man can bear such a thing?

The collapsed Saed didn't know at this time that his wife Kari and son Sakir also encountered terrible things last night.

Mrs. Carrie felt her face itchy when she was sleeping last night, so she scratched it a few times.

This scratching was unbearable, and the scratching became more and more itchy.

Mrs. Carrie knew to stop, but it was too itchy.

When she called the pharmacist, her face had already been scratched to pieces by herself.

The pharmacist gave her medicine, but the power of the curse made the medicine ineffective at all. Mrs. Carrie's face was rotten, and it was still extremely itchy, so she couldn't help but scratch.

Sakir was locked in a small dark room last night, no matter how much he yelled, no one paid attention to him.

Thakir was terrified, he didn't know who had caught him.

After he woke up, he was in this small dark room. He shouted loudly to identify himself, and threatened the enemy hiding in the dark with his father and the emperor, but it was useless, and no one paid attention to him.

Then last night, Sakir felt pain all over his body, which was so painful that he couldn't restrain himself.

He felt his blood was burning, his bones were being drilled with a drill, his internal organs were being pricked with needles, and the extreme pain that could not be described in words fell on his whole body.

Thakir cried and howled all night.

In the morning, someone came to bring him food and found something strange about him.

At that time, Sakir looked like he was suffering from progeria, and the boy who was only 15 years old actually withered like a 50-year-old old man.

The servant who brought him food disappeared for a moment, presumably to report his condition.

I don't know what the people above thought, but they asked the servant to bring a mirror, put it in the small dark room, and light up the lamp, so that Sakir could see his current appearance clearly.

Thakir screamed in fright when he saw the shriveled monster in the mirror with a bent body and white hair that had almost fallen out.

It's not him!This monster can't be him!

Thatkier raised his hand to smash the mirror, but when he saw the skin of his hands clearly, he let out a scream similar to that of a rooster being slaughtered.

In addition to Duke Mingguang's family, several magicians who served the Duke also had various strange misfortunes.

But because both Saed and Thakir were still out of town, these magicians didn't gather together. They didn't think of it as a curse attack on the Mingguang Duke's Mansion for the time being, and they just regarded it as an accident. , or someone poisons someone alone.

Including Mrs. Carrie, it was just that someone hated her and put some kind of strange poison on her, without realizing that it was a curse.

Bimonthly school contest scene.

The magic circle competition ended very smoothly without any problems.

Although many people joked that Xiao Yezi should also sign up for the magic circle competition, the No. 2 and No. 3 in this competition are both level five magic circle masters, and No. [-] is level four, but only one step away from level five. line.

And the magic array-related questions that Professor Wendi asked yesterday were basically basic questions, and the most difficult ones did not exceed level four.

So the vast majority of people believe that Xiao Yezi's magic circle is only at level four at most, maybe only level three.

After all, Xiao Yezi is already good at so many professional abilities. If every professional ability can reach level four or above, it would be too scary and unbelievable.

The competition item drawn in the afternoon was magic music.

In this way, the last item for tomorrow morning is determined, which must be the scroll competition.

"Wow, the finale is a scroll. That competition must have had the most people watching it. I wonder if Xiao Yezi can participate tomorrow?"

"I'm more curious about the way the scroll competition will be used. This is the finale competition."

"Do you think the Great Emperor will come to watch?"

"Sakir has been taken away, who else will the emperor come to see?"

"It's just a pity. That's Shuangyuexing's first person who dared to call himself the Great Emperor so far. Not many people objected. Don't you think he is very powerful?"

"That person is very powerful, but... the descendants can't do it. The Silver Moon Empire may have to disintegrate after this one."

"Do you think this great emperor secretly hid a descendant?"

"how is this possible?!"

"How is it impossible? Don't those bards often play and sing stories about the heirs who were secretly hidden and the princes of the country who were secretly cultivated? And don't you think that the emperor doesn't seem to worry about his offspring at all?"

I don't know what's going on, it may be that ordinary people are too curious about the life of the emperor's class, and speculation about whether the emperor has a hidden heir spread all over the extraordinary schools and Double Moon City in one afternoon.

And this guess is still radiating to farther places, such as the Silver Moon Empire next door to Double Moon City.

At this time, Wang Ye was lying on the bed pretending to be a corpse.

In his dormitory, three big men came.

Well, his three masters each dragged a chair and sat beside his bed.

Lei Mu was so oppressed by the momentum of the three bosses that he could only lean against the window, it was difficult to relieve the atmosphere.
