Mu Xue and Mu Xue

Chapter 265 The ground is slippery when it rains

The referee's powerful voice finally broke the silence and announced the result of this thrilling game.

However, at this moment of victory, Ye Shanyu seemed to have exhausted all his strength. His legs went limp and he fell down weakly.

His face was as pale as paper, and beads of sweat the size of beans rolled down his forehead, soaking the hair at his temples.

His tightly closed eyes and slightly trembling body all showed his fatigue and weakness at the moment.

The audience in the audience couldn't help but exclaim in surprise. Everyone knew that if it was a second later, the winner of this game might really have changed.

Seeing this, Chu Cixiao rushed onto the stage and carefully helped Ye Shanyu up.

Ye Shanyu's entire weight almost fell on Chu Cixiao. His steps were unsteady and every step he took seemed extremely strenuous. Even a simple action like getting off the stage was difficult for him to complete on his own.

Everyone knows that Ye Shanyu's star power has been exhausted, and there is no way he will be able to go on stage in the next game.

After finally returning to the audience seats, Chu Cixiao gently helped Ye Shanyu sit down, and carefully helped him adjust to a more comfortable sitting position. He looked at him with concern, making sure that he was temporarily fine before returning to his seat.

At this time, everyone was seated, Ziyuan stood up, his face filled with irrepressible joy.

"You two did an amazing job today! Thank you for your hard work!"

Ziyuan was the first to praise Chu Cixiao and Ye Shanyu, her bright eyes full of admiration and satisfaction.

Then, she changed the subject and began to talk about the third game, "You don't have to fight so hard in the third game. Winning or losing doesn't matter much. The key is to ensure your own safety.

After all, we have already won three valuable points with our previous winning streak, so the pressure of this game is not that great."

Ziyuan's voice was clear and loud, echoing in the audience. Her eyes slowly swept over the crowd, revealing ease and relief.

Being able to reach this point and enter the competition stage which is almost the finals is a height that their team has not reached in many years. How can they not be ecstatic?

"However, if we can ensure our own safety and have enough energy left, we should try our best to win the third 7-on-7 match.

Ye Shanyu can rest assured and don't go on stage for the third round. The other six people can go on stage."

Finally, Ziyuan added this sentence, his eyes revealing his trust and care for the team members.

Soon, the third seven-on-seven game began.

Lin Mo took a deep breath and tried to draw the Seven Thunder Wheel once.

When the wheel slowly stopped and the pointer pointed to the orange area, a barely perceptible sense of loss flashed in his eyes.

Although Orange Thunder's ability is not the weakest, in such an arena full of masters and fierce competition, such power is far from enough to dominate the battle.

So, after weighing the pros and cons in his mind, Lin Mo no longer gave his all as before, and ultimately the game ended in failure.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief as the referee announced the end of the game and the start of the break.

There was still some time before the second game of the afternoon started, and it ended quite early. Roughly speaking, it was about an hour and a half before lunch time.

After the game, everyone split into three groups and took their own actions.

Yun Yuyao set out on the journey back to the palace alone.

Chu Cixiao, Ye Shanyu, Jiang Humeng and Jiang Hemeng walked together towards their residence.

Ye Shanyu still looked very weak. Chu Cixiao kept an eye on his condition and supported him from time to time. Jiang Hu Meng and Jiang He Meng were talking in a low voice beside him. The atmosphere was quiet and peaceful. They all urgently needed to return to their residence to have a good rest and recover their strength.

Mu Xue, Lin Mo, Zi Yuan and Yan Li Yu walked towards the downtown outside the city with great interest. They were laughing and joking as they walked. After all, it was rare to have such free time. It was still a long time before lunch, so they took this opportunity to go to the downtown to have some fun and relax their tense nerves.

Several people were walking around in the bustling market, looking curiously at the dazzling array of shops and bustling crowds around them.

Suddenly, a fortune-telling stall attracted their attention.

The owner of the fortune-telling stall was wearing a black robe and a conical hat. The black gauze hanging from the hat covered his face, revealing only a pair of deep and mysterious eyes. He looked mysterious, making people want to find out what was going on.

Mu Xue was like a cheerful little deer, skipping and jumping through the crowd. Suddenly, her eyes lit up, as if she had discovered something new and interesting. She stopped abruptly, stretched out her finger, and excitedly pointed at a corner not far away, shouting, "Look at that, look at that!

Fortune telling!

Let’s go and see!

It seems like a lot of fun!"

Ziyuan was a little amused by Muxue's sudden action. She raised her head slightly and looked in the direction of Muxue's finger. When she saw the fortune-telling stall, the corners of her mouth rose slightly, revealing a faint smile. She said with a hint of ridicule: "Fortune-telling and the like are all lies!

But it’s still fun to play, let’s go.”

Lin Mo and Yan Liyu on the side looked at each other, with a hint of helplessness in their eyes, but also mixed with a little curiosity. They naturally would not raise any objections. For such a new thing, there was no harm in joining in the fun. Anyway, they were also leisurely enjoying this rare leisure time.

The four of them came to the fortune-telling stall together. Mu Xue walked up to it without any fear, a bright smile on her face, and greeted the fortune-teller enthusiastically: "Hello, boss!"

The voice was so sweet that it seemed as if honey could drip out.

The fortune teller raised his head upon hearing the voice, revealing a young and handsome face that looked to be only in his twenties. There was an elusive light in his eyes, as if he had the ability to see into people's hearts.

He raised the corners of his mouth, revealing a kind smile, and said softly, "Hello, little girl, are you here for a fortune-teller?"

Mu Xue nodded excitedly, her eyes sparkling like the stars in the night sky, and she said eagerly, "Yes, yes!

I'm here to have my fortune told, can you please help me?

Anything is fine!"

She looked so impatient, looking forward to the upcoming surprise with great joy.

The fortune teller cleared his throat and said seriously, "Okay!

Then I’ll start!”

As soon as he finished speaking, he, who had a playful smile on his face just now, seemed like a different person. His expression became serious and solemn, and his eyes revealed a mysterious air.

He closed his eyes slightly, clasped his hands together, and muttered to himself, "Heaven and earth, please help me. It's raining and the ground is slippery. Your last name is the same as your father's, right?"

As soon as this seemingly absurd question came out, Ziyuan and Lin Mo's faces instantly turned gloomy.

They never expected that the fortune teller would ask such a sensitive question right at the start.

Ziyuan's brows were tightly furrowed, and his eyes revealed a hint of displeasure and vigilance. He was just about to open his mouth to scold the fortune teller for his rudeness and presumption.

However, before she could say anything, Mu Xue had already taken the lead, with her hands on her hips, her face flushed red, and she shouted loudly in dissatisfaction: "Humph!

fraud!

Your calculations are totally wrong!!”

The voice was loud and firm, not hiding its emotions at all.

There was no trace of sadness or sorrow after her privacy was exposed on her face. All that could be seen was anger and dissatisfaction. It was clearly the instinctive anger that came from discovering that she had been deceived!

The fortune teller was caught off guard by Mu Xue's sudden reaction, his face turning pale and red. He coughed twice in embarrassment, scratched his head, gave an embarrassed smile, and said quickly: "...Uh, cough cough!

This doesn’t count, this doesn’t count!

Let’s start over, start over, and I won’t charge you this time.”

As he spoke, his eyes revealed a hint of guilt and regret, and he was obviously very upset about the mistake he had just made.

And so, amid Mu Xue's fury and the fortune teller's embarrassment, the fortune-telling farce resumed. No one could predict what intriguing story would unfold next... The sign in front of the stall prominently read: Fortune Telling, 5 copper coins per session, no asking for money. The large characters shimmered with a unique brilliance in the sunlight, drawing many to stop and take notice.
