Chapter 185: Invitation to gamble

"That's right! Just now on the street, in addition to seeing those two guys, I also happened to see people from the Tiangong Sect entering the Pan Building. ”

"So, you deliberately acted in front of the group of people from Tiangong Sect?"

"Well, that little alley was carefully chosen by me, and the reason why I took those two guys around was to find one such dead end near Pan Lou. ”

"At that time, my cry for help will attract the attention of these people from the Heavenly Gongzong on Pan Tower?"

Yang Ziyun is naturally not stupid, Xu Chen said this, and immediately reacted.

"Yes, they are all cultivators, and there is no reason why they can't hear from a short distance. As long as it is an individual, it is always difficult to hide the curiosity about the cry for help, and it is impossible for them to be all distracted. As long as someone looks at us, they will definitely recognize us. Xu Chen nodded and said.

"But how do you know they're going to take the bait?" asked Yang Ziyun.

Xu Chen turned his head to look at her, and said solemnly: "Because your qualifications have been noticed by the leader of the Tiangong Sect!

"How do you know what they're coming to Biancheng for?"

Yang Ziyun asked curiously, Xu Chen seemed to know all the information about Yiqiyi.

"What do you think I was walking around the city guards just now, talking everywhere?" Xu Chen glared at her and said angrily.

Yang Ziyun smiled stupidly, turned her head and muttered in a low voice, "I thought you were asking them about the address of that beautiful woman!"

"What do you think they will do?" asked Yang again.

"It's hard to say!" Xu Chen frowned, and said with a slightly condensed expression: "Listening to what Xiao Er said just now, it seems that they sent someone out in advance, if one can come as I expected, it won't be long before we will appear at the banquet in the City Lord's Mansion!"

Regarding Xu Chen's judgment, Yang Ziyun had no doubts. Because of the same technique, Xu Chen had already used it once in Yuzhang City.

At the beginning, she hid in the shadows and had already checked Xu Chen's movements before and after, but Xu Chen's layout at that time seemed to be imaginative, and its ultimate goal was far beyond the insight of this era, even if Yang Ziyun was also smart, but she still couldn't do it. When the land turmoil first appeared, Yang Ziyun was recalled to the Wuyi Mountain General Altar, so that she missed an excellent opportunity to make money.

Therefore, in such a small scene in front of her, Yang Ziyun has full confidence in Xu Chen.

"So what are we going to do next?" asked Yang Ziyun.

"Let's go to the east of the city first, just walk around Yun Ye's yard......"

After speaking, Xu Chen took the girl away.

The Biancheng City Lord's Mansion is located in the northwest corner of Biancheng today, but the people of Biancheng still stubbornly call it the "city center", or they are reminiscing about the past years.

The gate of the city lord's mansion was opened on Baizhang Street, which was originally only a side gate, but after expansion, it became a gate.

Inside the gate, in the open, huge square, there are rows of low tables, where countless soldiers of the city guard are drinking and enjoying the most celebratory moment of the year.

For them, every celebration could be the last......

Cheng Zhouhai led the group into the gate, and the servants in the city lord's mansion led them in.

The square was huge, so it was naturally used to house most of the ordinary soldiers, but in the main hall of the City Lord's Mansion, all the high-ranking members of the city guards were gathered.

In order to prevent disputes between the major forces when selecting teenagers, and for the sake of fairness, the major forces have already agreed to take turns to go to Biancheng at staggered times, but Tiangongzong is the last group of forces to come to Biancheng this year.

A few days ago, the city lord's mansion had already set the date of selection for today, and after the news of the beast tide attacking the city came last night, Cheng Zhouhai was depressed for a while, fearing that Biancheng would take the opportunity to delay. But I didn't expect that this year's beast tide in Biancheng would end so quickly, lest things change for a long time, and when Biancheng began to prepare for the celebration, he found the official in charge of this matter in the City Lord's Mansion and strongly asked the City Lord's Mansion to start selecting today according to the agreed time.

The official was helpless, and after reporting, he got Zhao Bancheng's reply, so he put this selection on the celebration banquet in the evening.

When Fang got the news, Cheng Zhouhai's heart was heavy.

The reason why Zhao Bancheng put the selection scene at the celebration banquet must be to take advantage of the momentum of the big victory and add obstacles to the selection of Tiangongzong.

This is why Pan Lou and his party, who have just become a boat, are just borrowing wine to kill their sorrows.

No matter how witty Cheng Zhouhai is, he wants to make a show of fulfilling his mission at the banquet where the city guards returned from a great victory, in front of all the high-level combat forces in Biancheng......

Life is not acting! How can it be so easy?

It's just that Cheng Zhouhai never expected that Pan Lou and his entourage would have an unexpected gain! Now, he has a plan in his heart, and even his steps are much brisker.

"Haha, it's really a sin to make the city lord wait for a long time when you're late!"

With hearty laughter, Cheng Zhouhai led Song Yongping into the main hall, as for the other entourage, they could only take a seat in the side hall, and they were not qualified to enter the hall.

"Haha, Brother Cheng is late, but he has to be fined three glasses of wine!"

The one who spoke and greeted was the head of the three commanders of the city guard, an old man named Situ Bo.

In the main hall, Zhao Bancheng and his second brother Zhao Yincheng, and Che Chi, the commander of the city guards, sat in the first place in the hall, Zhao Bancheng was the highest, and the other two were lower, and they were left and right.

The three people in the first place are all the highest combat power in Biancheng, they are the cultivation of the early Yuan Infant, the middle Yuan Infant, and the late Yuan Infant period, and it is naturally impossible for the three of them to deign to do that thing to greet people. Even if Cheng Zhouhai's trip represented the Heavenly Gongzong, the three of them only needed to nod their heads. In this way, the matter of ushering in the delivery naturally fell on Situ Bo, whose status was second only to the three.

Situ Bo sat in the second seat on the right hand today, but Yun Ye was sitting on the chief seat on the right hand.

No matter what you say, Yun Ye is the person who has made the first contribution today, and everyone has no objection when he sits in this position, not to mention that Yun Ye is the one who has taken a retirement, and he has just announced in public that he will not use this battle exploit......

After Cheng Zhouhai rushed to the first three of them to salute, he smiled and made a circle to everyone, and then led Song Yongping to the chief position on the left hand.

Since it is a banquet in Daqing, it is natural that there must be no guests, and in the celebrations of the past years, on the left-hand guest table, the City Lord's Mansion will invite some people who happen to be traveling in Biancheng to participate in the scattered cultivation or other forces.

These people who were fortunate enough to be invited were naturally proud of this, and when they saw Cheng Zhouhai sitting at the head of the guest table, whether they knew each other in advance or not, at this moment, they all raised their glasses to Cheng Zhouhai.

Cheng Zhouhai raised his glass and first responded to Situ Bo's words, poured three glasses of wine, and raised his glass one by one to respond to others.

By the time the wine was drunk, Cheng Zhouhai's face was already flushed.

The wine at the celebration of the City Lord's Mansion was naturally not ordinary, even if he was a cultivator, after drinking so much, Cheng Zhouhai gradually became a little drunk.

However, Cheng Zhouhai, who was drunk, seemed to be more and more arrogant, grabbing the wine glass and toasting everywhere, every time the wine was dry.

Zhao Bancheng, who was in the first place, raised his eyes slightly, and just glanced at him. However, Situ Bo, who was at the bottom, looked suspicious, and the selection of young people has always been the responsibility of the commander of the city guard.

Of course, he is clear about the purpose of Cheng Zhouhai's coming, but his current attitude, is it resigned to his fate?

Just as Situ Bo was thinking, Cheng Zhouhai swayed his body and walked to the front with a wine glass.

"City Lord, here, I wish the warriors of the city guards to repel the demon beasts, and I wish Biancheng eternal survival!"

After speaking, Cheng Zhouhai raised his head and poured it down.

At this moment, the doubts on Situ Bo's face were even worse! Even the three people at the top stopped throwing their cups and looked over.

After Cheng Zhouhai poured a glass of wine, he said with a sincere smile: "Today's Daqing, the warriors of the city guard have achieved a great victory that has not been seen for a thousand years, which is really a rare grand scene!"

"How can you live up to such a grand scene? I wish to add a little fun to this grand scene, and I implore the city lord to fulfill it!"

Looking at the sea of Chengzhou, who was bent over and standing in front of him, Zhao Bancheng smiled playfully and said, "If you have this intention, then let's talk about it!"

Cheng Zhouhai was secretly happy in his heart, but his face was still the same, and he said with a smile: "I want to make a bet with the city lord!"

"Oh?" Zhao Bancheng was interested, his eyes shining.

Seeing this, Zhao Yincheng and Che Chi on both sides shook their heads and smiled.

Up and down Biancheng, everyone knows.

The lord of the city is a good gambler, no matter what kind of gambling equipment, what kind of gambling method, as long as the lord of the city meets him, he will definitely gamble!

It's just that the castle lord's gambling luck has not been good......

Almost every gamble is bound to lose!

However, although the gambling luck is not good, but the gambling is not said! As long as it is a real loss, no matter what the lottery is, the city lord will be happy to pay it, and will not delay!

This habit of the city lord really made the people of Biancheng distressed!

Whenever the lord of the castle was out shopping, the people would never engage in activities related to the lottery as long as they saw it, and whether it was a game or a competition, they would stop in an instant.

Chessboards and chess pieces are flying all over the sky, and the things of competitive men standing shoulder to shoulder happen in Biancheng from time to time.

Because if the lord of the city is involved and has the interest in the game, then no matter which side the lord bets on, he will definitely lose!

It's not that the people are afraid of losing, but once they win the city lord, they can't even think about it!

In the eyes of the people of Biancheng, the city lord is a parent-like save, and the simple and kind people of Biancheng do not want to see the city lord "waste" their own money so much, let alone take advantage of the "bad problems" of the city lord to make profits.

For this reason, Zhao Bancheng gambled very much, but he has always been unwilling.

At this moment, seeing Chengzhouhai inviting gamblers, he was naturally itching.

"How are you going to bet?

Chengzhou was shipwrecked to hide the joy in his heart, and his red face was filled with a bright smile.

"The color head under is this pure heart jade in your hand!"

As he spoke, Cheng Zhouhai slowly raised his palm, and a jade pendant with an emerald green body jumped into his palm. R1058
