Chapter 66: Stone Dragon Empire

The sunset has collected the last touch of afterglow, the sky and the earth have dimmed, night has fallen, and the blue and blue sky is dotted with countless small stars.

Du Shaofu had just taken a shower after returning to the courtyard, when he saw the backyard manager coming and said that the owner and the second master asked him to come.

"Uncle, Uncle, are you looking for me?"

When Du Shaofu arrived at the uncle's study, the uncle Du Zhenwu and the second uncle Du Zhixiong were already sitting in the study, making people chatting in a low voice, their expressions slightly condensed.

Seeing Du Shaofu coming, Du Zhixiong motioned for Du Shaofu to sit down and talk, and then asked: "Shaofu, you have been living in a secluded place during this time, and you have often been invisible. Are you busy cultivating? Your body seems to be getting stronger and stronger. ."

Du Shaofu sat on the seat beside Du Zhixiong, nodded slightly, and said, "Anyway, there is nothing to do, so I am practicing in the back mountain. I don't know what the uncle and second uncle asked me to do?"

"Have you forgotten that three days later will be the time for the competition of the younger generation of the five major families?" Du Zhenwu's slightly condensed face showed a smile, looking at Du Shaofu and asked softly, "How are you preparing? ?"

"Is it in three days?"

Du Shaofu really forgot, recently in the practice of sleepless nights and forgetting food, the competition of the younger generation of the five major clans in Shicheng has been forgotten, thinking of the Lei Chi of the Ye family, his face wiped a smile, and said: "I have been preparing. "

Du Zhenwu looked at Du Shaofu's eyes, and he couldn't see any tension in those sharp and deep eyes, instead, there was anticipation, which made him a little doubtful, does this kid really have absolute certainty.

His brows moved slightly, and Du Zhenwu said: "Hu family Hu, Bai family Bai Ming, Qin family Qin Xiaolu are not your opponents, I know your cultivation is not weak, but this time there are some small changes, you have to pay attention."

When Du Shaofu heard the words, he immediately asked, "Is there any special situation?"

Du Zhixiong replied: "There are some special circumstances. This time, you are the only contestant from the Du family, and you are the only one representing the Du family."

"Why am I the only one?"

Du Shaofu suddenly looked puzzled. In previous years, Du Shaofu had heard of the competition between the younger generation of the five major families. The number of participants in the major families was limited to fifteen, which could be less but not more.

Every time the younger generation of each major family is full of fifteen people, there will never be less, even if there is no hope of winning the championship, it can be regarded as a training, and it will have great benefits for future cultivation.

Du Zhenwu smiled helplessly at Du Shaofu, and said, "You are too embarrassed to say that Du Yan, Du Chong, and Du Hao have all been injured by you, and they have only recovered 50-60%, so they can't go up at all.

Du Yu and Du Xue have good potential, but if they participate this time, they will not be able to participate in the next competition among the younger generation of the five major families. You also know that everyone can only participate once. Du Yu and Du Xue are the hope for the next Du family to win the championship. It is a loss for them to participate this time.

So after I discussed with your second uncle, you simply let you represent the Du family in the competition, but this will also increase the pressure on you. Judging from the situation that you offended the Bai family, the Yu family, and even the Qin family , at that time it is very likely to be besieged by people from other families. "

Du Shaofu's face was thoughtful, and he knew a little about the competition rules of the younger generation of the five major families. Except for not being able to intentionally hurt people's lives and using power and means that do not belong to him, there are no other rules, it is completely a melee, who can Finally standing on the stage,

Who is the winner, only the last winner can enter the Thunder Pond to practice.

Under this kind of rules, it is very important for the contestants of a family to join forces. The so-called two fists are invincible to four hands, and Jiuxiang is also afraid of the deep alley.

"Why, aren't you sure? If it really doesn't work, let Du Yu and Du Xue join in, at least to stop the pressure for you." Du Zhixiong looked at Du Shaofu's pensive look, thinking that Du Shaofu was not sure. He is also very clear that once he is besieged, the consequences at that time can be imagined.

"No need, I'll go alone, it's a little easier."

Du Shaofu raised his head with a smile on his face, as if he was not too worried.

"Shaofu, this is no joke. Even if the Ye family can stop one family for you, I believe that the remaining two families will besiege you." Du Zhenwu reminded Du Shaofu.

"Uncle, I will try my best. If you want to besiege me, then you have to see if they have that ability." Du Shaofu smiled lightly.

"Well, even if you feel confident, then my uncle will naturally believe in you."

Du Zhenwu looked at the sharp and deep clear eyes, then nodded, and continued to Du Shaofu: "In addition, you should pay attention to Cao Qitai of the Qin family. This Cao Qitai may be your strongest opponent."

"Why does the Qin family have the surname Cao?" Du Shaofu was puzzled.

"This Cao Qitai is the fiance of Qin Xiaolu of the Qin family. He is half of the Qin family. He is not very old, so he is also eligible to participate. You should not only pay attention to this person's strength, but also pay attention to this person's identity."

Du Zhixiong explained: "We have received news that this Cao Qitai is young, but his strength is extremely strong. In addition, this person is the son of Cao Tianmang, the lord of Liuyun County."

"Liuyun County." Du Shaofu's eyes moved slightly. Liuyun County is a county outside Shicheng, containing more than a dozen cities larger than Shicheng.

In the empire, there is a county above a city, a prefecture above a county, and a prefecture above it is directly controlled by the empire.

In Du Shaofu's impression, Shicheng seems to have always been a peculiar existence. It is said that since the founding of the empire, although Shicheng was a small border town, it was neither under the jurisdiction of the county nor under the jurisdiction of the government. After a long time, no one knew the reason. I only know that although Shicheng is the city of the empire, no one can control it, and only the five major families in the city stand.

"The empire we are in is called the Shilong Empire. Liuyun County is close to our stone city. Over the years, Liuyun County has always had the intention to close my stone city, but it is also afraid of the existence of the thunder demon lion of the Ye family. This time Liuyun County intervened in the contest of the younger generation of the five major families, and married the Qin family. I suspect that it has another purpose. When the thunderous lion of the Ye family has changed, not only other families are eager to move, but other forces can't be idle. , hey..." Du Zhenwu's voice fell, and he couldn't help but sigh.

After chatting with the uncle and the uncle for a while, Du Shaofu left the study and went back. When he returned to the courtyard, he rarely saw the alcoholic father at home, but as usual, he was drunk and lay on the rattan chair with the old wine jug in his arms. up, snoring evenly.

Du Shaofu took out a thin blanket from the room and put it on the alcoholic father, and wiped his face gently with a hot towel before returning to his room.
