Chapter 104: The Wine Banquet
Feng Chenyang watched as the people in the stands above had left, the warm sunlight cast on the smooth ground, the red blood had been wiped clean, but the strong smell of blood filled the surroundings and lingered.
A group of soldiers walked out through the secret door, and they worked in pairs, carrying small square tables full of various dishes. The iron bars of the remaining three groups of gladiator rooms slowly rose, and the soldiers quickly put in the dishes and left, and the iron bars fell again.
One table per person, no more, no less. Feng Chenyang didn't seem to have much appetite, and he leaned against the fence and stared at the blue sky in a daze.
After eating a few bites, he put down his chopsticks and walked to the side of Feng Chenyang.
"It's a rare good weather!" said to himself.
The beard looked up at the sky, turned to him and asked, "Won't you eat a little?"
Feng Chenyang didn't answer, he saw someone staring at him from the stands, two people, a man and a woman. It's a little far away, and I can't see my face clearly. But the wind and dust are clear, and the man wearing a brocade robe next to the woman must be the city lord.
After a while, Feng Chenyang saw them walking down together, Xiaoqing and a group of heavily armed guards following closely behind.
"The city lord is down, hurry up and eat!" the beard reminded him in a whisper, and retreated to the table and ate absentmindedly.
The secret door opened, Wang Songzhi walked in first, and Wang Biqing followed behind, her face was pale and seemed frightened.
Wang Songzhi stood in the center of the gladiatorial arena and looked up. He stood in this place for the first time, looking at the world above from this angle, with an inexplicable sadness.
Wang Biqing looked directly at Feng Chenyang, her eyes were mixed with some sadness and helplessness, and Feng Chenyang also understood the fear in her eyes.
Wang Songzhi stood for a while, and went straight to the dusty fence. He looked at the wind and dust all over his body, and looked very carefully. "I heard your surname is Feng?"
Feng Dusty nodded indifferently.
"Have you ever heard of Wind Without a Trace?"
"I've heard of it!"
"Do you know?"
"I don't know!"
"Who have you heard?"
"Once in the barracks, there are legends of him everywhere. It's just that it's been too long ago, and it's rarely heard of anymore!"
"I heard that Feng Wuxian had a son, who also died in the Gobi Desert, is it true?" Wang Songzhi observed the expression on Feng Chenyang's face, and had some expectations, even he didn't know what he was expecting.
Feng Chenyang hesitated for a moment and met his gaze. "I don't know if he has a son, we never talk about those things. If you think I have anything to do with him, then you're going to be disappointed. ”
Wang Songzhi smiled awkwardly and asked him by pointing to the dishes behind him. "Doesn't it suit your appetite?"
Feng Chenyang glanced back. "I'm not picky about food, it's just that I suddenly lost my appetite today. ”
"I saw you vomit, and I don't understand, you must have killed someone! ”
"I have killed many people, but they are all killings for a reason, and today's gladiatorial fights do not need a reason, purely for the sake of killing!"
"If you don't eat, you won't kill people, but you will be killed, and they will be killed if you are involved!" Wang Songzhi pointed to his teammates who were eating behind him.
"You don't have to provoke me, the things I promised always count. ”
Wang Songzhi nodded slightly. "Do you want a drink? Maybe you should have a drink!"
Feng Chenyang smiled: "A cup is good!"
Drunken Immortal Building.
Sumptuous delicacies filled the two tables, and the aroma of the whole private room was rich.
Ma Tianyuan, the leader of the Sugar Alliance, was beckoning the guests to take their seats, his old face full of smiles. "Gongzi Xie is also sitting here! Your father has already handed over the Tea Alliance to you, so you are qualified to sit here. ”
Xie Fei looked at the guests and hurriedly waved his hand. "It's all elders, how can I, a junior, sit with all the seniors? ”
"That's not going to work! Those are the charge d'affaires of some small chambers of commerce. You are the leader of the four major alliances, how can the old man lose the rules!"
Xie Fei still refused, he really didn't want to sit with those old guys. Liu Jingchen touched him lightly and motioned for him to come over.
Ma Tianyuan personally pulled him over and sat beside him. After everyone was seated, the diligent Xiao Er quickly filled everyone's wine bowls.
Ma Tianyuan picked up the wine bowl, stood up, waved his hand to everyone and said: "Through this gladiatorial competition, we can gather all the alliance leaders and presidents so together, today, the old man will first salute everyone with a bowl, thank you for the alliance leaders and presidents for giving the old man thin noodles and coming to the banquet!"
Everyone stood up one after another, and the sound of compliments was endless.
"Ma Ye is still so proud, we have always respected, not to mention today's hospitality, even if I am at the end of the world, Ma Ye said hello, I will come quickly!"
Fat Li also interjected. "Ma Ye, politely, no, we have always admired Ma Ye's personality, and we have taken great care of our friends and juniors. Master Ma, I'll do it first as a respect!"
Ma Tianyuan looked at Li Fatzi and smiled. "Master Li is always so good at talking, I'll take it seriously! Come, sit down, sit down, everyone drink together! After drinking, I still have good things to announce!"
Zhao Dongshan lightly touched the fat man Li beside him and whispered: "Li Pengfei! What you just said, I feel disgusted when I hear it." ”
Li Fatzi replied in a low voice: "Eat other people's food, drink other people's food, you should always say something that people love to hear!"
Zhao Dongshan snorted coldly. "You're superficial, you're very superficial!"
"Aren't you all like that?
Ma Tianyuan picked up the full wine again, and said loudly: "Leaders and presidents of the alliance! Today I solemnly announce that if the old man wins this gladiatorial competition, I am ready to take out the prize money of 10,000 gold coins and divide it equally among everyone!"
As soon as the words fell, everyone suddenly became jubilant, and the voices of praise for Ma Tianyuan came one after another, and there was an endless stream of people toasting him!
Ma Tianyuan waved his hand to signal everyone to be quiet, and he said: "Now everyone can put down chopsticks with peace of mind! You don't need to toast, the old man still wants to live a few more years!"
"Ma Ye is a good person and a good reward, and he will definitely live a long life!"
"Master Ma! is full of pride, and is destined to live forever!"
......
At this time, a subordinate quickly walked in, bowed his head and whispered something in Ma Tianyuan's ear.
But seeing that Ma Tianyuan's face changed slightly, he thought for a while, and said loudly: "In this broad daylight, what else can he do?"
Everyone was stunned and asked what happened?
Ma Tianyuan's face regained calm. "You don't need to worry, today I also invited the city lord to a banquet, the city lord said that there is something important to do, just someone came to report, guess what, the city lord just did?"
Speaking of the city lord, everyone naturally didn't dare to speculate, and they were stunned for a while, not knowing how to answer.
Ma Tianyuan snorted coldly and said: "He actually went down to the gladiatorial arena! He insulted his identity! I think that back then, the old man and his father were also good friends, and he watched him grow up with his own eyes, and now he is extremely confused when he starts to do things! Although the old man believes that he will definitely not do anything that violates the fairness of the gladiatorial fight, it is inevitable that he will be truthful. ”
Ma Tianyuan saw that everyone didn't dare to speak, and continued: "But don't worry, although his precious daughter doesn't know where to find a group of rabble, she luckily won the alliance and entered the finals, she can't win this gladiatorial fight! ”
