Chapter 3: Cage Fight

Xian Bai was the second group of people. After he left, Gu Du stood in front of the yard. As long as he didn't follow Xian Bai, he would die early and be reborn. If he was exhausted in such fear, he would lose all his energy.

I don’t know where the cage was, and I couldn’t hear anything in the yard. After about two quarters of an hour, the Soul-Reigning Master came back with the Palace Guard and pointed at Gu Du without any surprise.

After leaving the yard and walking towards the magnificent palace, Gu Du held the chicken leg bone in his pocket, as if he was holding a life-saving straw.

The huge iron cage was about ten feet in front of the palace, about ten feet high and about three feet wide. There were holes on the base plate. Several people from Qingyi were pouring water into the iron cage with wooden barrels. The red water flowed through the holes. Under the iron cage, there seemed to be a pool.

The steps in front of the palace are divided into three levels. On the first level are twenty-four soul masters in white robes sitting, on the second level are ten soul masters in yellow robes sitting, and on the third level, that is, on the platform in front of the palace, three soul masters in black robes sitting.

Behind each Soul Control Master, one or three people were wearing robes of the same color as the corresponding Soul Control Master, but the one used to tie his hair is not a crown but a headscarf.

The body was covered with a snow-white list on the right of the iron cage, and two teenagers stood on the left, one of which was Xian Bai. When Gu Du approached, Xian Bai nodded to him.

After the Qingyi Palace people washed the bottom of the iron cage, they threw a dagger into the iron cage. The white-robed soul master who led the team waved his hand, and Gu Du and others were pushed into the iron cage by the palace guards in turn.

Gu Du was the first to enter the iron cage, but he stayed away from the dagger and chose a corner.

On the second level platform, the handsome soul master once again smiled.

The iron cage was locked from outside, and the white-robed soul master led the team to return to the candidate's yard with Gong Weiyuanlu. Who said it was the beginning. A young man leaned over and grabbed the dagger and suddenly inserted it into the chest of the person opposite.

The screams rang out, and the screams spread, mixed with crying, and Gu Du fell to the ground, squinted his eyes slightly while observing and waiting.

The boy who first grabbed the dagger was twisted by another boy's neck. After the dagger fell on the bottom plate, he was picked up by a girl and stabbed into the stomach of another boy...

Eight people fell down one after another. The last one standing was the young man who had been stabbed in his stomach. He covered the wound on his stomach with one hand and held a bloody dagger in the other, and shouted towards the steps of the palace: "I won!"

Everyone outside the iron cage was silent. The young man was a little confused and shouted again: "I won! Heal me quickly!"

Gu Du stood up, took out the chicken leg bone from his pocket, and approached carefully.

Gu Du could feel the blood in his body boiling, and his right hand holding the chicken leg bone was trembling constantly. He walked very slowly because the base plate was slippery and the corpse was blocking him, so he could not make any mistakes.

"I won!" The boy holding the dagger shouted again, he didn't understand why no one paid attention to him.

"Behind you!" The boy standing next to Xian Bai suddenly spoke. He witnessed Xian Bai win the victory in the same way. He despised this behavior, so he reminded the boy who held the dagger.

Xian Bai knocked the boy beside him with one punch, then rode on him, punching him one by one, but after a few hits, he was pulled up by the Gong Guard and kneeled on the ground.

The boy holding the dagger suddenly turned around and stared at Gu Du in shock. Gu Du's whole body was stiff. The boy was taller and thicker than him. Although he was stabbed in the belly, Gu Du would definitely not win the face-to-face fight!

"Gu Du!" Xian Bai shouted: "He is injured! Hide him! Wait for his blood to dry!"

"Ah..." The young man holding the dagger roared with a ferocious face, and raised the dagger and rushed towards Gu Du.

But he was too anxious or too angry, tripped by a corpse, slid by the blood on the base plate, and fell to the side.

Gu Duyan was quick and quick. The moment he fell to the ground, the chicken leg bone in his hand was accurately inserted into the other party's throat.

"Victory!" Someone said something, and a Qingyi Palace man came to unlock the lock.

Gu Du walked out of the iron cage, the Qingyi Palace man pointed to Xian Bai's side and said, "Please wait there."

Before Gu Du could come back to his senses, he didn't feel that the tone and wording of the palace servant's speech had changed, but his whole body was stiff and he walked towards Xian Bai.

Someone asked, "Gu Du, did you give the white chicken leg bones?"

Gu Du stopped and felt that the sound was coming from the palace. He turned around and faced the palace and replied loudly: "Yes!"

No one spoke anymore. Gu Du waited for a moment, then came to his senses and walked to Xian Bai and stood there.

Xian Bai was pressed by the Gong Guard, and the young man who was beaten by him was pressed by the Gong Guard.

The third team came, and someone said, "Search."

All ten people to be selected were searched, and the man said again: "Gu Du, among these ten people, you can designate one person to win to replace Meng Yuan."

Meng Yuan was the one who just spoke out to remind the boy who took the dagger.

Meng Yuan asked in shock: "Why? I am the winner of the first game!"

The man replied, "You have interfered with the selection and lost the qualification to be a child servant, so you can only fight again."

Meng Yuan's eyes were flustered, but then he stared at Gu Du with a resentful look.

The man said again: "Gu Du, you choose someone."

All ten people looked at Gu Du with eager eyes, and Gu Du said, "I will choose the third girl in the left."

The handsome yellow-robed soul master smiled again.

The selected girl cried with joy, and the Qingyi Palace man stepped forward to guide him: "Please wait there."

The girl ran to Gu Du, bowed deeply, then turned around and stood beside Gu Du, constantly wiping her tears.

Meng Yuan and nine other people were sent into the iron cage, and the girl said to Gu Du: "Thank you, my name is Lixia."

Gu Du whispered: "Don't talk."

Li Xia was shocked and quickly closed her mouth.

The cage fight began again and soon ended, and Meng Yuan won again.

Walking through the cage door, Meng Yuan stared at Gu Du with resentful eyes all the way, while Gu Du just lowered his head and looked at his feet.

When lunch was put on, there was a short table in front of all the winners, and there was a soft cushion. The food was a large bowl of rice, a plate of fragrant meat, a crispy fish, a plate of clear vegetables, and a bowl of soup.

After dinner, there was a cup of tea with a fragrant fragrance.

At noon, the cage fight begins again until dusk, and all the cage fights end, and all the winners stand in two rows facing the palace.

The handsome yellow-robed soul master stood up, turned around to salute the palace, and said, "High Priest, I want Gu Du."

The high priest said, "Chu Qin, your boy servant is the only daughter of Lord Shangguan, Shangguan He."
