Chapter 137: The Underground Boxing Ring (14)
Ma Chao didn't know how to speak for a while, Huo Jia, who he once wanted to treat as an enemy, was really trying to help himself.
"I, I ......"
"You don't have to say anything, I know what you want to say, you should have considered me an enemy in the first place, right?"
Huo Jia looked at Ma Chao and said lightly.
"Maybe you were still thinking of me as an enemy a second ago, but this second you may have been moved by my words, and you have completely regarded me as your friend or your teacher, right?"
Ma Chao was speechless for a while, after all, what he thought in his heart was guessed clearly by Huo Jia.
"You have to remember that in this society, no one is completely good to you, except for your parents, everyone has their own ideas. ”
Huo Jia said as he put his hand on Ma Chao's shoulder, although there was a smile on his face, it seemed that he was about to leave here. There is no memory at all, but the tears in the corners of his eyes clearly reveal his reluctance.
"I know I've been out of here for a while lately, maybe it's because I've been with you for so long that I've reminded me of something I've had to accomplish in the past, so we don't know how long it will be before we meet again after we've been separated this time. ”
Ma Chao suddenly wanted to cry, because the man in front of him hadn't had time to cherish himself, so he had to say goodbye to him, just like what was said in the book, many things, only when you lose them, you know how to cherish them.
"Don't go, you can stay here, and I'll take you with me when I make a name for myself. ”
When Huo Jia heard this, he couldn't help laughing, and sure enough, this was indeed a child he had taken a fancy to, it seemed that his vision for so many years was not wrong in the end.
"You stupid boy, if I can solve my problems, how can I do them myself? ”
Huo Jia patted him on the shoulder as he spoke.
With that, he turned around and left the room, Ma Chao stood in place, looking at his figure that was fading away, and a few tears falling on the ground.
Suddenly, he felt a hint of sadness......
......
......
After Huo Jia left, Ma Chao found the box of video tapes that had been recorded for himself under the bed in Huo Jia's room according to the direction he told him back then.
Ma Chao transported these two boxes of things to his house and couldn't wait to open them.
"When you see this video, I should have left you, and maybe I and the world have probably said goodbye, but you have to believe that there is no justice in this world and it will never change. ”
Huo Jia's familiar figure appeared in front of the camera, he straightened his collar and said very seriously.
"I want you to know that if you don't know exactly what you're going in is righteous, then don't look down. ”
Immediately hearing this, the corners of his eyes instantly deleted tears, after all, this is a living person who once accompanied him, and now he is no longer where he is.
"You don't have to worry about me, you must make a name for yourself here, only if you make a name for yourself, you will have a chance to come to see me. ”
Huo Jia was recording the video, tears were already oozing from the corners of his eyes, and it could be seen that he was also very reluctant to Ma Chao.
Ma Chao clenched his fists tightly, looked at the video that gradually turned to the topic, and looked at Huo Jia, who taught him in the video, and secretly made up his mind in his heart......
The next day
"Today is the first day of arranging a competition for you, are you ready, I heard that you have been practicing with an old man here for so long, I don't know what you have practiced, can you bring us a wonderful performance?"
Ma Chao didn't want to talk to him, he was in extreme sadness now, if it wasn't for the fact that he had to compete here, he would definitely not take the initiative to compete.
"The person you're playing today is a former veteran who wants to retire, but what we're asking here is for him to win this tournament and see which of the two of you can win. ”
When Ma Chao heard this, he instantly became a little angry, he stared at the referee, but the referee looked back with some puzzlement, as if to tell her that he didn't know what her reaction was.
"You know he's a veteran, and there's a good chance that he won't be able to beat me as a newcomer, so why don't you let him play a game that he has to win, then you just don't want him to retire at all. ”
When the referee heard this, he smiled slightly, and this smile revealed a little indifference and disdain, and said while laughing:
"Our underground casino is not a charitable organization at all, our fundamental purpose is to make money, you are just a kind of bargaining chip we use to make money, we make money together is a mutually beneficial relationship, even if he can't win, we will let him retire, but there is no money after retirement. ”
The referee's words were very realistic, but it happened to be this realistic word, which pierced Ma Chao's heart sentence by sentence, which made Ma Chao's heart extremely painful.
"What happens if I lose this game?"
When the referee heard this, he glanced at him with a sneer, and said lightly:
"Then you get out of this underground casino, and pay back all the money you owe this month. ”
After the referee finished speaking, he turned his head and walked out, and he gradually felt that this Ma Chao was not as easy to control as he was when he first came, but was a little out of control.
Ma Chao looked at the figure of the referee getting farther and farther away, and suddenly a wave of anger surged into his heart, and he now had a desire to solve this referee on the spot first. But his intellect told him he couldn't.
Ma Chao was still thinking about how to face the old man for a while, after all, this was an old man, and it was impossible for him to be too heavy, but if he was light, it was very likely that the five people in the family would not be able to eat.
Ma Chao thought like this while slowly walking to the ring......
......
......
"I declare the tournament open now!"
The referee waved his hand downward, and the people around him instantly began to cheer.
"Our newcomer is coming back after a month and a half, and our old guy is a former six-time champion, so we want to see who will come out on top with these two players who are both in the spotlight?"
In case the former six-crown champion rushed up, she was very imposing and pounced on Ma Chao, but Ma Chao obviously didn't want to fight him, so she dodged with a slight move.
He could clearly feel that this old man was already a little physically exhausted, and his body simply did not allow him to do such a large amount of exercise, but he was reluctantly trying to come here to box.
"Old man, don't fight, your body doesn't allow you to do this at all, if you continue like this, it's very likely that you will be hurt!"
Ma Chao persuaded the old man while constantly dodging, he wanted to minimize the damage to the old man as much as possible.
The old man's sick feet were already white, and it was obvious that he was old, and there was no comparison with a young and strong child like Ma Chao.
The old man didn't want to stop at all, but attacked more and more violently, so that the people around him began to cheer.
"Stinky boy, do you think I don't know your strategy yet, there is no real friendship at all in this underground casino, what are you pretending to be here for me, as if you have been here for a month and a half to change this casino. ”
The old man didn't listen to Ma Chao's advice at all, just blindly attacking the lineup, Ma Chao did have a headache, he didn't know how to face this old man, and now the only way was to make all his physical strength good and let himself win.
But the physical strength and endurance required to reach this level are extremely high, and they require extremely strong skills.
The cheers of the people around gradually lowered, because they also found out that this game was just a one-way attack, and Ma Chao didn't have a chance to fight back at all, and the original cheers around him gradually turned into angry voices.
But Ma Chao didn't care about this voice at all, because he knew that an old man must maintain a state of respect, which was something that everyone on the ground would abide by, so why shouldn't he obey it underground?
"What are you doing with this stinky boy? Why don't you attack? Are you looking down on me as an old man? You didn't know what I was doing when I was a six-time champion? I just want to retire, do you really not want me to retire?"
Ma Chao dodged while looking at the old man and said:
"Your best way to retire is not to get hurt, the question of retirement money or not is a trivial matter, do you have to hurt yourself and retire? Do you think you have a slight chance of winning with me?"
When the old man heard this, he instantly became a little angry, although he knew that what Ma Chao said was true, but he was a little unwilling, and his whole body moved in an instant, as if he was going back to his former peak.
The people around them also began to cheer, and there were some old customers who had watched the six-crown game.
He used to be extremely fierce, and the opponents he beat were either dead or injured, and almost none of them survived, but now that he is old, the casino will always arrange some extremely tragic games for him, causing him to hang the lottery every time he wins or loses.
Ma Chao saw that this old man was actually serious, and he hurriedly became serious, he took off his shoes, threw them out of the field, and began to walk around the field barefoot, he began to get familiar with the venue constantly.
The original cheers of the people around them also fell silent, they still hadn't seen what this kid was doing, but they could vaguely understand that this kid's next performance might surprise everyone!
