Chapter 17: Gambling in the Ring
"Thank you, Senior Brother Xu, for your help. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info" Zhu Liuqing took the spirit stone with both hands and thanked him with a face.
Zhu Liuqing turned around and handed the bag containing fifteen high-grade spirit stones to Chen Kang. Chen Kang reluctantly took the bag, opened it, looked at it, and then put it away.
Chen Kang suddenly squeezed out a smirk on his face, and said to Xu Yang: "Dare to ask if this son is a disciple of that family, and he is so generous, Chen is polite here." After speaking, he feigned his fists and saluted.
"Don't dare to be, I'm just an ordinary secular kid, and I accidentally got some spirit stones. and Zhu Senior Sister practiced in the Muling Academy. Xu Yang said.
After hearing this, Chen Kang's original smile on his face suddenly disappeared.
"Where did I come from, I was just a secular disciple. Originally, I wanted to ask this Xu Daoyou to guarantee the rest of the part, but it seems that it will not work. There was a hint of arrogance in Chen Kang's tone.
"I really don't have the financial resources to vouch for Senior Sister Zhu at present. Xu Yang said neither humbly nor arrogantly.
"I see that Miss Zhu can't find a guarantor for a while. Why don't you do it, I'll give you a chance. If you win, the rest of the high-grade spirit stones will be written off, if you lose, the girl will promise to double cultivate with me, and after you and I become a family, the debt will naturally be written off. If not, see you in the law enforcement court. After speaking, he stretched out the folding fan in his hand and gently fanned it twice, showing a smug look on his face, as if he was full of confidence.
"Chen Gongzi, you are too smart. My brother and sister have only entered the second level of the spiritual realm. However, I heard that Chen Gongzi's cultivation had successfully advanced to the first level of the Void Transformation Realm three months ago. Chen Gongzi made such a move, wouldn't he be a bully. Zhu Liuqing's words revealed sarcasm.
"I wish the girl is really smart and clever. Yes, I'm already cultivating in the Void Realm. Since your brother and sister don't dare to fight, then it's okay to ask this Senior Brother Xu next to you to appear on your behalf, do you dare to fight with me?" After speaking, he made a "swish" sound of folding the fan in his hand, and retracted it vigorously, revealing a fierce face.
Chen Kang calculated in his heart, this kid surnamed Xu doesn't know the height of the sky, and dares to meddle in my good deeds, if he dares to agree to compete with me, he will be ruthless and let this kid surnamed Xu know the consequences of provoking me Chen Kang.
"My cultivation is only to enter the spiritual realm, Your Excellency is a monk who has turned into an imaginary realm to find an opponent for a spiritual realm monk, aren't you afraid of making people laugh?" Xu Yang also sneered.
"This Chen Kang is higher than any of the three of us, not only is he a disciple of the Law Enforcement Hall, but he is also the young master of the Chen family, and his strength is strong. Although he has the blood of the Lin clan, he has no chance of winning. Zhu Liuqing secretly begged in her heart.
"Since Gongzi Chen proposed a gambling contract, my brother and sister think that their strength is far inferior to Gongzi. Can I ask a fellow Daoist who has the same cultivation realm as Chen Gongzi to compete with Chen Gongzi on my behalf. Zhu Liuqing said after thinking for a moment.
After Chen Kang heard this, the thief's slippery eyes glanced back and forth beside Zhu Liuqing, but he didn't find any powerful helpers beside Zhu Liuqing. His gaze deliberately stopped on Xu Yang's face on the side, and he smiled contemptuously.
Chen Kang calculated in his heart that the kid surnamed Xu next to him had only cultivated to the second layer of the Spirit Realm, and he was a mortal disciple, so he couldn't be his opponent. He was wearing the costume of a disciple of the Law Enforcement Hall, and others would not meddle in their affairs. Moreover, his cultivation is not only the first level of the Void Realm, but with the help of the family elders to cast the secret method, he has reached the second layer of the Void Realm.
Thinking of this, Chen Kang smiled weirdly. Unfolded the black folding fan in his hand and shook it lightly, and said, "Okay, I don't know who Miss Zhu asked to fight for you." ”
"This Chen Gongzi doesn't have to worry about it, let's go to the competition ring in the gambling house now, and we'll see it then." Zhu Liu Qing replied decisively.
"Okay, I can't run away if you forgive me, in that case, this son will go first. After saying that, Chen Kang turned his head and got into the carriage, and waited for him to enter the carriage and sit down safely. The eagle-nosed old man who was driving shouted, and the carriage drove away.
"What can I do about my sister?" Zhu Liunian asked, looking at the carriage that disappeared at the end of the road.
"Let's go to the ring first. Zhu Liuqing didn't answer positively, and her face showed a little hesitation.
The gambling houses in the Heavenly Ghost Sect are all concentrated on a street called "Jinbao Street".
"Kampo Street" is one of the busiest streets in Sonaibo. There are many restaurants and gambling houses on both sides of the street. There is a small square not far from the gambling house, and there are several rings used for competitions, and bets are specially made for fighting.
The Heavenly Ghost Sect encourages disciples to learn from each other, and actual combat is also one of the important means to improve cultivation and break through bottlenecks.
The rule of the Heavenly Ghost Sect is that the martial arts competition in the gambling house can only be carried out by monks below the Peiyuan Realm. High-level cultivators above the True Dan Realm are not allowed to fight in private, and the fighting methods of True Dan Realm monks must be approved by the Law Enforcement Hall within the sect, and they must be carried out at the designated "Battle Spirit Platform".
Not only is it because the destructive power of monks above the True Dan Realm is too huge, but also because the monks above the True Dan Realm are not allowed to consume themselves at will as the core combat power of the sect.
In the ring area of the gambling house, a high-pitched ring stands in a small square.
When the three of them came to the competition ring, Chen Kang was already waiting here.
Under the ring, Chen Kang and Zhu Liuqing signed and detained at the law enforcement office of the ring.
"Chen Kang, I agreed to today's bet, let's go on stage. Zhu Liuqing's tone was full of decisiveness.
"I wish the girl no regrets, a word. After speaking, Chen Kang couldn't wait to jump into the ring.
Zhu Liuqing also performed her body skills and went into the ring.
Seeing that someone was going to fight in the ring, a crowd of people slowly gathered under the ring.
Zhu Liuqing stood in the ring, hugged her fists towards the crowd under the ring and said, "Little woman Zhu Liuqing, I was invited to fight in the ring with this Chen Kang Daoyou next to me today. How can I cultivate to a low level, and I can only enter the spiritual realm. And this Chen Gongzi, who is going to fight with the little woman, is already in the realm of the virtual realm. ”
After speaking, he looked at Chen Kang beside him with his eyes.
"Entering the Spirit Realm to challenge the Void Realm, you are not a genius, and you have no chance of winning at all. Someone in the audience said.
Chen Kang's left hand was one-handed behind his back, and the ink-colored folding fan in his right hand had been unfolded, shaking it slightly, with a smug look.
Zhu Liuqing hesitated for a moment and took out a small copper bell from the storage bag. Lang Sheng said: "The little woman implores that the hero in the audience can compete with this Chen Gongzi on my behalf, and his cultivation is limited to the realm of turning into nothingness." If she wins, the little woman is willing to marry this person. The premise is to be able to ring the "soul power bell" in my hand. ”
The "Soul Power Bell" is a magic weapon that tests the soul power of a cultivator, and without considerable soul power, it cannot be rang at all. The Soul Power Bell that Zhu Liuqing took out was specially used to test the magic weapons used by elite disciples. Ordinary Void Transformation Realm disciples are not capable of ringing this bell. Zhu Liuqing calculates that the person who can ring this bell has at least three times the soul power of himself, and he should be able to beat Chen Kang in front of him.
"This is good, isn't this a martial arts competition to recruit relatives, this girl named Zhu Liuqing is really good-looking. ”
"Yes, yes. The little girl is not only good-looking, but also has a very pungent personality, which suits my appetite. ”
......
There were many discussions in the ring, and many people were eager to try.
Looking at Chen Kang again, his originally proud face turned blue and green, which was extremely ugly.
"I didn't expect Zhu Liuqing, a little girl, to be so decisive, she would rather marry a stranger than double cultivate with herself. When you win the bet, you must take this woman home and train it well. When the time comes, the heirloom treasure of the Zhu family, the "Blood Jade Qilin", will also be at your fingertips. Chen Kang cursed in his heart.
"Sister, why did you come up with such a plan?" Zhu Liu Nian on the side regretted.
"Chen Kang has long coveted our family heirlooms, and most of your gambling debts this time have fallen into the trap set by him. Chen Kang actually had the face to come to the family to propose, and I just wanted to cut off his thoughts. What's more, the person who can really ring this soul power bell and dare to challenge Chen Kang should also be a hero, and it is not a grievance to let my sister marry him. Zhu Liuqing explained.
"Hey, it's all my fault for my incompetence. ”
Chen Kang swept the restless crowd with his eyes. said loudly: "Chen Kang, a disciple of the Xia Chen family, is now serving in the Law Enforcement Hall. If you don't have a long eye, even if you come to the stage, don't blame my subordinates for being ruthless. ”
As soon as everyone heard that Chen Kang was a descendant disciple of the Chen family, several people who were originally going to take the stage retreated.
"This Chen Kang is the descendant son of the Chen family of the Xiuzhen family, the Chen family has a lot of industries in the Heavenly Ghost Sect City, and the financial resources and power are very strong, who dares to provoke easily. ”
"There are elders in the Chen family who are elders in the Law Enforcement Hall. hit Chen Kang and stabbed the basket. ”
"It's Chen Kang, this person has heard of it. Among the young disciples of the Law Enforcement Hall, he is also considered a powerful character, who can be sure that a monk of the same rank can win against him? If he loses, not only will he not have a beauty, but he will also offend the Chen family, and stealing chickens will not lead to rice.
Perhaps because of the power of the Chen family or the obscenity of the Law Enforcement Hall, no one came up to fight for a while.
Half an hour later, no one came to the stage.
Zhu Liuqing's face was anxious, and her pink fists were clenched. I thought to myself: "If no one comes to power, I would rather fight with this Chen Kang than for the whole thing, and I can't let Chen Kang succeed." ”
"Can you try it down there?" At this moment, a loud call came from the crowd under the ring.
