Chapter Ninety-Six: Gladiator
The heavy gate finally opened completely, and the people in the cage stood up, as if they were all waiting for this moment.
Wu Lao Da walked in the front, Wu Lao 2 and Wu Lao 3 followed, followed by five subordinates, each carrying a food box in their hands.
When Feng Chenyang saw the three Wu brothers walking in, he was angry, and opened his mouth to scold: "Boss Wu, are you a person? I am kind enough to help you improve your sword skills, and you repay your grandfather like this?"
"Finished scolding, have you fun?" Boss Wu walked straight up to him and looked at him in a daze, without any expression on his face.
"It's okay!" Seeing his appearance, Feng Chenyang didn't dare to be too presumptuous, after all, it fell in the palm of someone's hand, and he didn't want to be bored.
"The method of practicing the knife you mentioned is really good, I admire it very much! But at the moment, the eldest brother still has a big difficulty, and I hope that the son will be successful. With a wave of his hand, the subordinate behind him sent the food box through the special window.
Feng Chenyang didn't know how long he had been in a coma, he was already hungry, and he sat on the ground and opened the lid of the box. The aroma of wine and meat fills the room in an instant.
"The best beef and mutton, the best mare's milk. Boss Wu looked at the wind and dust that was feasting, and he couldn't bear it.
"Tell me, though I despise your actions. Feng Chenyang sent the beef into his mouth, and his resentful gaze shot at the face of the black boss.
"I need you to help me fight a game, win! You go! And a hundred gold coins to offer. ”
"That's all?"
"That's it!"
"What about losing?"
Boss Wu was silent for a while. "Can't lose!"
"Why can't you lose?"
"Because if you lose, I'll die!"
Feng Chenyang laughed. "I'm quite satisfied with this result......" Then he stopped moving, and his face became ugly. If Boss Wu has to die, then he must not be able to live.
Silent.
"Fight with whom?" Feng Chenyang broke the silence.
"A lot of people!"
"Are all these people you bought accompanied me to death?"
"If you win, you don't have to die!"
"Are you so sure I'm going to win?"
"Because you're dusty!"
Feng Chenyang's pupils suddenly shrank, and the panic instantly hung on his face. "You know me?"
"Acquaintance! Acquaintance for a long time!"
Feng Chenyang stared at Boss Wu in a daze, and he quickly searched his head for everything about this place. He was already pretty sure that he hadn't met this man.
"You don't have to think about it, I know you, I don't need you to know me too! Back then, on the Prancing Horse Plains, you fought against the Soul Eater Gun to win Zizhen, and I was on the scene as soon as you became famous. ”
"You and the Wei Kingdom have a hatred of extermination, and our dragoons don't have anyone like you. That is to say, you are hiding in a corner and secretly observing everything, and the object of your observation is naturally the tiger and leopard rider of the Wei State. The thought of revenge in your heart has not broken for a moment, has it?"
"Yes! I'm always looking for opportunities. First of all, I have to stand here, and you're my bargaining chip. ”
"Do you think I look like a person at the mercy of others?" Feng Chenyang's eyes were cold, and his face was serious.
"We can take what we need! ”
The wind and dust lit up the shackles on his hands. "It doesn't seem to be as friendly as you say. ”
"If you don't, I'm afraid you'll run away long ago! We won't be able to stop you. Boss Wu spread his hands helplessly.
"The cooperation you just said is to take what you need, and I already know what you need, so how do you know what I need?"
Boss Wu smiled weirdly, squatted in front of Feng Chenyang, already stared straight into his eyes, and lowered his voice. "It will definitely take a lot of money to set up the Tiger Army!"
Feng Chenyang's surprise seemed to be engraved on his face with a knife, and he didn't know how to answer for a while.
"If you win the game, you will be rewarded with 10,000 gold coins. Of course, you don't have your share of the coins, but I can convince the people above that you win the game and the coins are yours. Boss Wu paused word by word, and what he said was categorical.
Feng Chenyang laughed. "Do you think I'm stupid? If you say a word, I have to fight with my life, and a person with little reputation!"
"I'm here to tell you that there will be a reputable person to talk to you tomorrow, of course, I have to convince this person first!" Boss Wu stood up, glanced at him, turned his head and walked out.
As the crowd left, the heavy gate closed again.
The sky was getting darker, but the wind was stronger.
Feng Chenyang was lying in the corner, his eyes closed, but his mind was thinking about what had happened recently.
How can Boss Wu know his situation so well? Who has been sending him a message? Who will talk to me tomorrow? What will he talk about?
He thought about it for a long time without an answer. The rest of the cage had rested, and the snoring was even.
Early in the morning, their breakfast was brought in, a bowl of porridge and two flatbreads. When they had finished eating, the servants packed up their dishes and left, and no one said a word from beginning to end.
Apparently these people are used to such a life.
Except for happy one person, everyone else sat quietly on the ground and meditated and practiced.
Feng Chenyang asked the person opposite Xingxing, "How long have you been here?"
"A month!" the man didn't lift his head.
"You're all here to compete?"
"We're here to die!"
"And you're still here?"
"Aren't you here too?" the man sneered.
"I was calculated. ”
"Is there a difference?"
"Of course, I can not go to the game, no one can force me to go!"
"The result is still the same, it's all death!"
Feng Chenyang was silent.
"Isn't there a way to survive this game?"
"Yes!"
The bearded man suddenly interjected, "You have no idea who your opponent is. The people of the Sugar Alliance have played the game with captured giants and have won several times. ”
"Are there really giants?" said Wind and Dust, his eyes widening in horror.
The bearded man glanced at Feng Chenyang and stopped talking.
Feng Chenyang sat cross-legged on the ground. "Heroes, it looks like we're going to die here together, it's fate, can you tell me about the game, and let me die if you die!"
One of them sighed. "This competition is actually a gladiatorial battle, jointly organized by the Moon City Lord and the four major chamber of commerce alliances, the Tea Alliance, the Sugar Alliance, the Salt Alliance, and other chambers of commerce. Once every five years, it is jointly funded by everyone, and the winner will receive a prize of 10,000 gold coins. Therefore, it is more grand. ”
"These chambers of commerce spend a lot of money to find masters who can participate in gladiatorial fights, and although the city lord participates every time, it is only for fun, so there is no time when it is not the first from the bottom, and in the gladiatorial arena, only by killing the opponent can it be considered a win. ”
"Each chamber of commerce can only choose five gladiators to participate in gladiatorial fighting, and now we are the five gladiators of the city lord!"
Feng Chenyang somewhat understood. "What if we win?"
The man grinned, revealing his beautiful teeth. "I'll tell you the truth! We're all some people from the streets that Boss Wu found to make a living by selling their arts, and if you want to count, that bearded brother may have some real skills. ”
Wind and dust fell silent, for he had heard a sound of neat footsteps approaching outside the heavy gate.
