Chapter 2197 Three Moles
The results were announced on the stage, and after it was confirmed that Joseph had advanced, the two groups of guests in the second round went to the villa area in front and behind for a pair-wise exchange.
Zhang Yu and others naturally waited quietly, just watching the excitement. On Dhruv's side, Dhruv suddenly said: "Let's go."
"Let's go? Where?" Paris looked at Dhruv in confusion.
"Go back to Rome..." Dhruv said bluntly.
"Going back to Rome so soon...I won't continue watching the game..." Paris said a little eagerly.
"Originally I wanted to continue watching, but Inzaghi has already lost and I guess he must have rushed back to Rome. He can't let him speak alone, so I have to rush back early to meet the teacher." Dulu Husband said.
"Yes, yes..." Pisoa nodded quickly and said: "After this guy goes back, he will definitely find all kinds of reasons and excuses to justify himself. He must not be allowed to speak alone. The senior should rush back immediately to expose his incompetence."
Xierekh also said: "It makes sense. Inzaghi and Montolivo must not be allowed to succeed. We will follow the senior back and expose him together."
This kid saw that Dhruv lost before, so he directly switched sides and went to Inzaghi's side, flattering Inzaghi in every possible way. Now that Inzaghi had lost, this kid immediately made a judgment on the situation, thinking that Inzaghi had destroyed the Seven Luck Beads and would never be able to explain to the teacher after he returned. This was the chance for Dhruv to turn around.
Paris's current problem has not been resolved. It is estimated that it will ulcerate on her body at night. How can she dare to return to Rome with Dhruv?
She thought about it for a moment and then said: "What the senior said makes sense, but it seems that it will be of no use if I follow you back. So I plan to stay for now and see if there is anything special about the exchanges here. Things happen. It's better to have someone here than to realize it later."
"That's fine." Dhruv didn't know what Paris was thinking, but he just felt that Paris' words made some sense. God knows what will happen in the next exchange. If someone stays, there may be something to gain.
Just like yesterday, if Pisoa hadn't called him in time and asked Paris to find a way to inform Zhang Yu and make Zhang Yu prepare in advance, how could Zhang Yu have won.
It can be said that Dhruv has determined that this confrontation between Zhang Yu and Inzaghi, and even Zhang Yu's destruction of the Seven Luck Pearls, was the result of Zhang Yu's preparation in advance. Otherwise, who could change the formation in such a short period of time and destroy the Seven Luck Pearl.
Dhruv then stood up, and Pisoa and Sherekh left with him, leaving Paris alone.
Everyone at her table had left, and Paris looked back to make sure she couldn't see the backs of Dhruv and the others, and then cast her eyes towards Zhang Yu.
The subsequent competition went very smoothly, with each round ending to determine the candidates for promotion in each group.
With the end of the fourth round of exchanges, the exchanges between sixteen and eight are also completely over. All top eight players are produced.
Miss Allen stood on the stage and spoke loudly with a microphone: "All the finalists for the 16th and 8th rounds have been announced. They are Taoist Zhang Yu, Deacon Joseph, Miss Che Xinyumi, Mrs. Kong Yi, Mr. Rockenwell, Wu Zen Master Heng, Mr. Atobili, Mr. Leonardo.”
After she announced the promotion list, the audience immediately burst into applause.
From the names of the promoted people, it is not difficult for everyone to tell that among the promoted people, there are a total of four from the east and four from the four directions. Two of them come from Buddhism.
After the applause settled down, Miss Allen continued: "Next, we are going to conduct a drawing ceremony to determine the next round of eight to four groups. Now please invite the etiquette lady to come to the stage."
Soon, the etiquette lady standing in the audience came to the stage, and on the big screen behind the stage, eight large photos were displayed, which were of the eight promoted guests. Miss Allen pressed a button, and the photos on the eight screens began to scroll non-stop. The speed was so fast that it was almost difficult to see. Not long after, eight large photos were turned over.
Miss Allen said loudly: "According to the rules, the first two advanced guests will be invited to the stage to draw the first round guest. Now we invite Taoist Zhang Yu and Deacon Joseph to the stage."
"Pah, pah, pah..." "Pah, pah, pah..." "Pah, pah, pah..."...
The audience burst into thunderous applause again, with the little girl Zhang Yinling and the Taoist disciples around her applauding most enthusiastically.
Zhang Yu stood up amidst the applause and walked towards the stage. He went up from the left, and Deacon Joseph went up from the right.
After the two took the stage separately, they came to the center of the stage opposite each other.
The two men had met before, but Joseph's face had always been arrogant, and he obviously didn't take Zhang Yu seriously. But this time when they met, Joseph nodded to Zhang Yu very politely and said proactively: "Taoist Zhang, nice to meet you."
This is a manifestation of strength. Zhang Yu has used his strong strength to prove that you, Joseph, are no match for me at all.
And Joseph also knew this deeply. The moment Zhang Yu destroyed the Seven Luck Beads, it explained everything.
Joseph was even a little lucky that Archbishop Wilmore only asked him to attend the Eastern and Western Astrology and Feng Shui Exchange Conference instead of asking him to kill Zhang Yu. Otherwise, there is no telling who will kill whom.
"Deacon Joseph, it's a pleasure to meet you. Archbishop Wilmore is doing well lately." Zhang Yu also said with a smile.
"Uh... very good, very good..." Deacon Joseph was obviously stunned for a moment. He obviously did not expect that Zhang Yu would mention Archbishop Wilmore.
He was even more confused and didn't understand how Zhang Yu knew Wilmore.
But Zhang Yu just said polite words to him, and then stood still next to the computer. When Joseph saw that Zhang Yu stopped talking, he stood on the other side of the computer.
Miss Allen said directly: "Now, I would like to invite Taoist Zhang Yu to confirm the guests for the first round! Taoist Zhang, please press the button."
Zhang Yu was already very familiar with this, so he didn't hesitate. He took a picture with his hand, and a photo immediately appeared on the first big screen behind him. The person in the photo was the little nun Kong Yi.
Miss Allen asked Deacon Joseph to press the button again, and what he pressed turned out to be Zen Master Wu Heng.
Both of them are Buddhists and both come from Eastern China, but they were drawn together at this time. I don't know if it was a coincidence or a deliberate arrangement. But no matter what, this game can also show that Buddhism has already occupied a top four spot.
Miss Allen invited Zhang Yu and Joseph to go down, and then invited little nun Kong Yi and Zen Master Wu Heng to come on stage. After the two people came up, Kong Yi took the lead and put his hands together, "Amitabha, Master, you are polite."
"Amitabha." Zen Master Wu Heng put his hands together and nodded slightly, which was regarded as saying hello to Kong Yi.
The age difference between the two people is huge. If they were in China, Kong Yi would not be qualified to compare with Zen Master Wu Heng, but neither of them expected that they would compete on the same stage in England.
The great monk was polite on the surface, but his face was more or less arrogant, as if he didn't take Kong Yi seriously at all.
In his opinion, meeting a little nun in the eight-to-four competition was a free gift to him, and it was simply a recommendation.
Miss Allen asked the two of them to tap the buttons again to determine the candidates for the next round. Little nun Kong Yi was standing on the left side, and she was the first to knock. She knocked casually, and a picture appeared on the big screen. It was Deacon Joseph who had just stepped off the stage. It was Zen Master Wu Heng's turn to tap, and Leonardo appeared.
The two men stepped down, and Joseph the Deacon came on again, and he greeted Leonardo, and then struck as Miss Allen wished.
The screen froze directly, and a photo appeared in front of everyone's eyes.
No one would have thought that the moment this photo appeared, many people in the audience burst into applause.
"Pah-pah-pah-pah..." "Pap-pah-pah-pah..." "Pap-pah-pah-pah..."...
That's right, the person who typed out this time was none other than Zhang Yu.
Now Zhang Yu has become the star figure of this East-West astrology and Feng Shui exchange meeting. When other people came on stage, there wasn't much reaction. As long as he came on stage, many people would applaud and support him.
White Europeans have always been arrogant, but they did not hesitate to applaud Zhang Yu. This is a kind of worship of the strong. After all, Zhang Yu's successive wins over Dhruv and Inzaghi were not ordinary people. Especially the episode when he won against Inzaghi is still fresh in people's memory.
Leonardo also tapped the button, and in a blink of an eye, a picture of a woman appeared on the screen. This person is Cha Xinyumi.
"Pah-pah-pah-pah..." "Pap-pah-pah-pah..." "Pap-pah-pah-pah..."...
For a moment, the audience burst into applause again.
Although her applause was not as fierce as Zhang Yu's, it was already very difficult to get applause.
This woman had won the previous two contests very beautifully. Every time I step off the stage, I get applause. This time, she and Zhang Yu met. In the eyes of many people, it would be a battle between dragons and tigers.
The two people were invited to the stage again. Zhang Yu once again entered the stage from the left, just in time to meet Joseph coming down from here.
As soon as Joseph saw him, he immediately smiled and said, "Daozhang Zhang, what a coincidence. We just came on stage together, but I didn't expect it to be me who whipped you out."
"It's indeed a coincidence." Zhang Yu nodded and smiled.
The two passed by each other, and Zhang Yu came to the stage to face Che Xinyumi face to face.
Che Xinyumi was very polite and immediately bowed, "I'm glad to meet you, Mr. Zhang. I really don't want to run into Mr. Zhang, but I still did."
Zhang Yu clasped his hands and said: "Infinite Lord, Miss Che Xinyoumei's strength has been witnessed by Pindao before. In fact, I don't want to meet you, but it's just fate."
In this kind of situation, no matter who you encounter, no matter what kind of hostility is in your heart, you must maintain your grace. Zhang Yu really doesn't have a good impression of the island nation's Onmyoji, but that's all it can do.
At present, the three groups of guests have been drawn out, leaving only the last two - Rockenwell and Aituobile.
But Zhang Yu and Cha Xinyumi still had to symbolically tap the button to take photos of the two people. By doing this, the organizers seemed to show that the results of the draw were fair and just.
Whether it is fair or not, only God knows.
At least from this round of drawing, you can see a little bit of something fishy. First, the four guests from the West were drawn together, and the four guests from the East met in pairs. The final result must be that two guests from the East and the West will enter the semi-finals.
In addition, in terms of strength, who is strong and who is weak can generally be seen after the previous two rounds of competition.
Rockenwell's fortune has always been very good, and the guests he has drawn are all relatively weak. Even in the quarterfinals, his opponent Aito Bile is considered the weakest among the quarterfinals.
The superficial strength of Deacon Joseph and Leonardo are almost the same, it's hard to say who is stronger and who is weaker. Through previous performances, it is not difficult to find that the strength of these two people is not as good as Dhruv and Inzaghi, who were eliminated by Zhang Yu. Of course, this is indeed the case for Deacon Joseph. Leonardo’s strength is not yet easy to say. Because when he defeated his previous opponents, he didn't crush them, he just narrowly defeated them.
After the top eight were determined, Zhang Yu and Che Xinyumi stepped down together, and Miss Allen did not invite Rockenwell and his opponents to come on stage again.
Miss Allen took the microphone and said loudly: "The pattern of the top eight advancing to the semi-finals has been formed. I think you must be very concerned about what the communication rules will be in the next round..."
Speaking of this, she paused deliberately, and then said: "In the previous two rounds, we told you the rules so that you can prepare. Tomorrow's communication will not be like this. We will have to wait until tomorrow. Arrive at the scene and announce the rules, and then only give you half an hour to think about it alone before starting to communicate. This is also a communication that tests your adaptability and on-the-spot performance. The winner is not necessarily the strongest, but it must be experience. The richest... Well, today's exchange meeting on Eastern and Western astrology and feng shui ends here. Everyone, go back and have a rest. See you tomorrow..."
After Miss Allen finished speaking, the etiquette lady came over and led the guests to leave the Royal Resort Manor.
Zhang Yu and others left the manor, went into downtown London, found a restaurant, and packed some delicious food to take home to eat. The master and apprentice had a meal in the living room. After eating, they did whatever they needed to do. Because he didn't know tomorrow's topic, Zhang Yu planned to give instructions to his disciples on the formation. Unexpectedly, Zhang Yingling glanced at him. Zhang Yu thought the little girl's illness had relapsed, so he hurried upstairs.
The two came to Zhang Yu's room, and Zhang Yu immediately asked: "What's wrong? Where is the problem?"
"No problem." Zhang Yingling pouted and said.
"No problem, why are you winking at me?" Zhang Yu frowned.
"I'm worried that something will go wrong again, so I'm prepared in advance. If something goes wrong, just run upstairs!" After the little girl finished speaking, she sat down directly on Zhang Yu's bed.
Her feet kicked off her shoes, revealing a pair of little feet without socks. He leaned back and let his legs hang by the bed for a few moments.
Because his feet were facing Zhang Yu, Zhang Yu could see at a glance that there were three red moles on the sole of Zhang Yinling's left foot.
There are myths about moles on your feet. The most famous one is that your feet are on seven stars. According to legend, it is the order of the emperor. It is said that Liu Bang, the founder of the Han Dynasty, and Zhu Yuanzhang, the founder of the Ming Dynasty, both had seven stars on their feet.
