Joseph originally followed his senior sister here, and had seen Zhang Fan¡¯s abilities with his own eyes. He didn¡¯t want to challenge Zhang Fan head-on, but he didn¡¯t expect that even though he controlled his mouth, he still took advantage of it.
It¡¯s a bit unreasonable to say that the internal fighting was due to courage, but what Zhang Fan said really made her feel a little chest ache. The dignified astrologer was almost scared to death. This was much more embarrassing than infighting.
"Hmph, when faced with danger, are all of you Chinese brave and fearless? Joseph's reaction is just a normal person, there is nothing to be ashamed of!"
"Oh? That's it. Then I heard that you British men would throw white handkerchiefs into other people's faces and challenge them to a duel for the woman they love. Isn't this true?"
Zhang Fan sneered, Are you just kidding, am I afraid of you, a foreign girl?
"It's gloves, not handkerchiefs!"
Tina angrily corrected Zhang Fan's mistake.
"It's all the same. Who doesn't know that England is a rotten country? It's not unusual for men to wave handkerchiefs. This young man just wanted to challenge me to a duel for the girl he loves. It's just that our Chinese men are better than you British people. If you are more bloody, you won't care about the occasion or any foreign princess watching. For the girl you love, we Chinese men dare to take action against our love rivals no matter where. Nothing is more important than the woman we love. Yes. Brother Yuanshan, what I said is right!"
Zhang Fan¡¯s response was met with cheers from nearby, while the Taoist priest from the distant mountains nodded with a red face, not daring to open his mouth to answer the question.
"You, you can say it." It was obviously the other party's internal strife. Not only did she not ridicule the other party, but she seemed to make him angry. Princess Tina was so angry, but she couldn't be angry. She really had nothing to do with Zhang Fan. He could only snort and walk back to the stage to let the staff tally the results of the knockout rounds.
"Master, if you really have it, you can't take it for granted, and it can reach such a high level. Master, you are really disrespecting your talent by not setting up a fortune-telling stall under the bridge."
Seeing Tina walking away, Shen Xiaoman gave his master a thumbs up.
"Go, don't talk nonsense. There are many fortune tellers under the bridge here. Watch your mouth and don't offend me. You can save yourself the trouble of others looking at you and saying you have no rules. Master, I will teach you well, no matter what the occasion is. They all talk nonsense."
Zhang Fan "reprimanded" Shen Xiaoman in a low voice. The little girl smiled evilly and nodded. The Taoist priest from the distant mountains who sat back in front was already flushed. He couldn't tell that Zhang Fan was scolding him. Ah, but at this time, he didn't dare to talk back. Let¡¯s not talk about whether this skill with words is exaggerated or not. He definitely can¡¯t defeat this skill with hands.
"Okay, so now the statistical results of the knockout rounds have come out. We have asked the witness, Deputy City Liu, to announce the results of the first knockout round for us.
In fact, this statistical work has already started when everyone comes out to hand in the slips, so the results come out very quickly. Sun Chengjin said a few words, then handed the calculated list to Liu Zhiguo.
Liu Zhiguo took the order and stood up. He first turned to smile at Princess Tina, then turned to look in the direction of Zhang Fan and nodded as a greeting. Finally, he walked to the microphone, cleared his throat and started reading.
"Dear Taoist priests, fellow masters, and distinguished guests, I am honored to attend this event as a witness today. The organizer of the event just sent me the results of the knockout round. According to Miss Tina's explanation, the results of the three villas The effects of the layout are: No. 1, attracting disaster and illness to the homeowner, No. 2, gathering energy and wealth for the homeowner, and No. 3, attracting peach blossoms, but they are rotten peach blossoms for the women living in the house. Therefore, the only arrangement that is beneficial to the homeowner It¡¯s Villa No. 2.¡±
Such a result was expected by Zhang Fan. He solved both dangerous situations, so there was no reason why he was wrong.
And some people in the crowd began to become unable to sit still. The first person who was unconvinced was Sun Buer, who was the first to enter the villa. They clamored loudly that there must be something wrong with the result. Villa No. 3 clearly felt refreshed as soon as they walked in. How could it be a dangerous situation.
Zhang Fan could only be speechless about this. Of course you feel refreshed, but as an old man, you don't want to suffer the consequences of that bureau. Just seeing how charming the female staff member who brought you in is, you are a ghost if you don't feel refreshed.
The audience was filled with prominent wealthy businessmen from Jiangzhou. No one among these contestants wanted to show their timidity, especially the old men from the I Ching Research Association. This was directly related to their jobs. In the end, it was the three people sitting on the stage. The situation was stabilized only after the president spoke. Even so, several old men left the venue angrily carrying their belongings.
?After this round of brushing, more than half of the people are gone. There are four left in the Yi Jing Research Association, six in the Buddhist Association, and seven in the Taoist Association. Plus Zhang Fan, there are still a total of eighteen people left. .
It is worth mentioning that Taoist Priest Qinglian and Taoist Priest Yuanshan both stayed, and Ping Yaozi, who led the team at Songzhu Temple, was not dismissed either. Among the three Taoists who led the team, only the Pingyao Taoist maintained a polite attitude towards Zhang Fan. The other two didn't like to see Zhang.
The time of the knockout round is neither long nor short. After the results were announced, it was already 11:30 noon. Sun Chengjin announced that the next competition would be arranged in the afternoon. As for lunch, his company would host it for everyone here. The buffet will be available for everyone to enjoy individually.
The staff moved out dining tables one by one and brought out dishes one by one from a villa that was used as a temporary kitchen. The aroma of the food soon filled the entire community.
One of the great benefits of a buffet is freedom. It doesn¡¯t have to be like a traditional dinner party, where everyone sits in rows around a table and eats fruit. You can follow whoever comes in. You can just carry your plate and join in the fun and chat with others.
People from the three major associations are all organized and basically divided into four groups. That's right, four piles.
The I Ching Research Association and the Buddhist Association were each in one group, but the Taoist Association was divided into two parts. Of course, this is not an internal split. The Taoist priests of Zhengdao are Taoist priests who can eat meat, while the Taoist priests of Quanzhen are vegetarian Taoist monks. They cannot eat together, so they separated. Only the Taoist priest from Yuanshan was holding the plate and trying to get closer to Taoist Qinglian.
Zhang Fan couldn't help scratching his head. Speaking of which, this distant mountain belongs to Ruiyun Temple. Ruiyun Temple should be Quanzhen. You said that you, a monk who cannot get married, keep clinging to other girls. Is it interesting? ?
And Qian Yuanzi turned a blind eye to Yuan Shan's behavior, which is really strange.
"Xiao Zhang, I have heard my father and Anbang talk about you all day long, and today I finally got to see you in person. What I didn't mention, you are not only sharp-tongued, but also very talented. There are so many people participating in the knockout round, and you didn't even get into it. You are the only one who can see things clearly."
Zhang Fan was looking for something to eat on the dining table with a plate in his hands. Suddenly he heard someone calling him from beside him. When he turned around, he looked and it was Liu Zhiguo, wasn't it? Sun Chengjin also accompanied Liu Zhiguo with a plate. When he heard Liu Zhiguo's words, Sun Chengjin's face turned ugly. How could he have imagined that this deputy mayor had something to do with Zhang Fan. Seeing the two of them getting together, Sun Chengjin walked aside knowingly.
"Hey, Uncle Liu, this is really the first time I've met you, but I have seen your photos at the old man's house. You are much more energetic in person than in the photos. From what I see in your face, the official palace is bright, and your career is prosperous. I'm afraid Uncle Liu will be promoted soon."
Mr. Liu¡¯s son is one of his own family members. Zhang Fan generously sent a photo to Liu Zhiguo.
"Hahaha, I'd like to lend you some good advice. If I get promoted one day, I'll definitely treat you to a nice meal. But you'd better stop calling me uncle and call me Brother Liu. My Yudie often talks about you. She also said Her grandpa always said that she should be your wife, so I have to give you a few more lives as soon as possible. I haven't raised this girl enough yet." Liu Zhiguo laughed and turned to look at Shen Xiaoman aside, "This is Shen Xiaoman. The daughter of the Guo Ao family?"
"That's great, Brother Liu. This is Xiaoman, my apprentice. Xiaoman, please call me uncle." Zhang Fan doesn't pretend to be pretentious in his title. It doesn't matter whether he is uncle or brother. With Liu Zhiguo's age, he won't suffer any loss if he calls him uncle.
"Uncle Liu." Shen Xiaoman, who has always been quite noisy, was surprisingly well-behaved this time. He sweetly called Uncle Liu, then picked up a chicken wing from the large plate on the table with a tong and placed it on Liu Zhiguo's plate. "Uncle Liu, let me treat you to something."
Zhang Fan and Liu Zhiguo looked at this charming girl and laughed. This girl is so good at borrowing flowers to offer to Buddha.
"Xiao Zhang, are you having trouble with Sun Chengjin?" Liu Zhiguo suddenly turned around and glanced at Sun Chengjin who was hanging out with Joseph, with a sneer on his lips, "Collude with foreigners and want them to make money from us. This guy is not a good guy. . Do you need me to help you settle this matter?"
"Need not."
Zhang Fan waved his hand casually.
"Shi Xiaolong once said that if you act chivalrously and righteously, you can't even deal with Sun Chengjin, so I'm still a fool."
"Hahaha, okay, okay, you're fine, but to say the least, Sun Chengjin is very jealous of you. In order to attack you, it's worth a lot of money to put up such a big battle."
As Liu Zhiguo spoke, he suddenly narrowed his eyes and looked behind Zhang Fan. Zhang Fan turned around and saw a blond woman in a blue dress dragging a dinner plate and walking towards this side. It was not Princess Tina. Who is it?
"Boy, I think you should prepare your white horse. This princess is here. Whether she can bring glory to the country depends on you. Well, work harder, I am optimistic about you." Liu Zhiguo said with a look on his face. The man smiled knowingly, patted Zhang Fan on the shoulder, turned around and left.
