Yuejing City was originally called Shangjing Mansion, which was the capital of the Jin Kingdom in the previous dynasty. After the establishment of the Yue Kingdom, Yue Hao renamed the city as Yue Jing City, and set the capital here. After the operation of the two dynasties, not to mention the prosperity of Yuejing, the people's livelihood facilities are also very perfect. The city is divided into four urban districts again, the area of each urban district is much larger than Guangfu City, there is also an inner city river in it, which runs through the whole city east and west, it is an artificial river built in the Jin Dynasty, named Ruoshui River.

When the lights are bright, the banks of the Ruoshui River in Xicheng are already brilliantly lit, and the restaurants, tea shops, casinos, and green buildings are all lively. This is the best place for the dignitaries to spend their pastime, along the street you can see the nobles riding tall horses and the dignitaries sitting in the luxury sedan chairs, all of them are surrounded by servants and linger in the most prosperous and lively places in the capital of Yue.

There are many shops along the river, most of them are wine shops, green houses and casinos, but there is a pavilion that is quite special. Different from other stores, there is no flag on the façade of this pavilion, but the flying pavilion is more magnificent than the shops on the left and right.

To outsiders, the door of this pavilion is closed, and it seems that it does not run any business, but for some dignitaries, there are the most fun and exciting games here.

It can be seen that this pavilion is a patio-like structure, with a square arch and a total of three floors. The first floor is a wide field, the ground is paved with bluestone, there are passages in four different positions of the field, and there are two yacha standing at the entrance of the passage.

The second floor is the stand, surrounded by a railing, surrounded by delicate ancient wooden tables, which form a circle around the second floor. There are all kinds of wine and food on the desk, and there are screens behind them, and the patterns on the screens are colorful, there are green mountains and green waters, there are rare birds and beasts, there are clear breezes and bright moons, and there are gorgeous beauties. At this time, there were people sitting on the desk on the second floor, and just looking at the dress of these people, you knew that if you were not rich, you would be expensive.

The third floor is even more luxurious, with carved beams and paintings everywhere, and Accord boxes are one after another, but they are all closed and you can't see the scene inside.

After a while, I saw a person walk out of the passage of the first floor of the field, that person first walked to the center of the field, and then arched his hand upstairs, and said loudly: "Thank you for coming, I'm sorry to keep you waiting." After a pause, he smiled and said, "Because the owner is planning to change to a new way of playing today, I think everyone here knows that the previous game was played one-on-one, but today it was changed to a three-person melee, and the person who was still standing in the end won." ”

The crowd in the stands immediately applauded: "This is long overdue!" This is intense enough, exciting enough, and beautiful! I heard someone ask again: "Second Qian!" How do the three of them bet this time?"

"The rules are the same as usual, buy one and lose one, the winner draws two percent, and the chips are one hundred or two," Qian Lao Er said with a smile, "Don't talk nonsense, the players are ready to play!" ”

After speaking, I saw a prisoner walk out of the other three passages on the first floor of the field, these three people had messy hair and gray faces, but their bodies were still strong, and their eyes were full of ruthlessness at the moment.

Qian Lao Er smiled, and then said: "Everyone, there are two rounds of today's game, this is the first round of goods, which are the winged tiger, the two-headed snake and the twin-tailed scorpion, you can start betting." ”

One guest laughed and said, "The two-headed snake looks more aggressive, I'll buy him three hundred taels!" ”

"That winged tiger is relatively strong, I am optimistic about him, five hundred taels!" Someone else shouted.

"Three hundred taels, two-headed snake!"

"Six hundred taels, twin-tailed scorpion!"

"Two hundred taels, winged tiger!"

...

Everyone present took out the silver one after another, and then someone put away the silver tickets one by one and recorded them. One bet is three or five hundred taels, which can be described as a big gamble. In the eyes of ordinary people, this is an astronomical amount, but in the eyes of these people, it is just a drop in the bucket, after all, those who can enter this pavilion are all people with status.

Seeing that everyone had placed a bet, Qian Lao Er smiled and said: "Okay, the chips have been placed, and then the next one is the beginning of the show!" ”

With that, he walked among the three prisoners again, and his face suddenly became gloomy, "All three of you are prisoners of capital crimes, and the only way to get free is to win this game." At that time, not only will the rich adults be entertained with good wine and food, but if you are lucky enough to let people fall in love, then my second brother will congratulate you, and from then on follow the rich and noble people to eat and drink. ”

For a moment, the eyes of the three prisoners showed a feverish light, they were all condemned prisoners, and this was undoubtedly their only hope of regaining their freedom. It can make people like to spend money to buy the best, and no matter how bad it is, there is good wine and good food in the prison cell.

After Qian Lao Er finished speaking, he left the field, and as soon as he left, he heard a roar from the winged tiger, and took the lead in launching an attack, and then the three of them fought together.

Although these three prisoners are burly, they do not seem to have practiced martial arts, and this time the fight relied on their own brute strength, really up and down, punching the flesh, pulling hair, biting, stepping on toes, etc., all the means used to the extreme. This was the most primitive and savage duel, and soon all three of them were red.

The dignitaries in the stands all shouted, looking quite excited. The three prisoners fought for a while, and they all knew each other's strength, and then they saw the two-headed snake and the two-tailed scorpion look at each other, and they actually rushed towards the winged tiger together, trying to join forces to kill the most powerful winged tiger first.

Although the winged tiger was the strongest and most powerful of the three, it was inferior to the other two in terms of agility. As the saying goes, two fists are invincible to four hands, the two-headed snake and the two-tailed scorpion quickly put down the winged tiger together, and after they pressed the winged tiger to the ground, one of them folded the winged tiger's hand back, and the other jumped up, and one of the knees smashed the joints of the winged tiger's hand.

I saw that the bones on the joints of the winged tiger's left hand were suddenly broken, and the bone stubble pierced through the skin and branched out, if it weren't for the layer of skin, I'm afraid this arm would have fallen off to the ground.

The winged tiger broke off one of its hands and let out a heart-rending howl, but then the killing intent in its eyes became a little stronger. When people are cornered, they often burst out with terrifying energy, and the winged tiger gritted his teeth and launched his Jedi counterattack, first kicking the crotch of the two-tailed scorpion, and then getting up and biting the ears of the two-headed snake, and pulling hard, it actually bit off the entire ear of the two-headed snake.

Suddenly the blood mist splashed, and the three of them screamed at the same time, and the nobles in the stands saw this, and shouted even more excitedly, the excitement brought by this kind of blood was no worse than that of women.

"Twin-tailed scorpion, kill him two!"

"Winged Tiger, if you win, Lao Tzu will be rewarded!"

"Don't be cowardly with the two-headed snake, Lao Tzu's three hundred taels are counting on you!"

The nobles shouted merrily, and the three prisoners were not idle, enduring the pain and continuing to scuffle together. And Jiang Xiaobai was watching in one of the passages of the field, because it was his turn to play in the next round.

Looking at the bloody scene in front of him, Jiang Xiaobai frowned, and only felt very uncomfortable in his heart. In his previous life, he had killed a lot of people on the battlefield, and he had seen a lot of bloody scenes such as stumps and broken arms, and intestines left on the ground. But at this moment, the scene in front of him made him feel very uncomfortable, this kind of game that does not take human life seriously, really disgusted him in his heart.

But the nobles in the stands were happy with this, screaming and shouting excitedly, as if it was not a human being who was fighting in the field, but two beasts, what a human annihilation. Although some prisoners are innocent of death, they should also be dealt with by criminal law, not for the pleasure of others.

However, Jiang Xiaobai also had to admire this endless method of money, established a fairly complete system for this underground struggle, provided comprehensive services, and formulated a gambling rule that would not make profits. Looking at the structure of this pavilion, it is similar to the ancient Roman Colosseum, which was named the New Seven Wonders of the World in the previous life.

When he was stunned for a moment, he heard a burst of cheers and scolding, and it turned out that the three prisoners had already decided the winner. When I looked into the middle of the field again, there were bitten pieces of meat all over the bluestone floor, bits and pieces, ears, noses, eyeballs, thigh meat, and so on. I saw that the two-headed snake and the two-tailed scorpion were lying on the ground, unrecognizable, and I didn't know if they were dead, and the winged tiger was standing panting, with one arm broken off, and one of its eyes was gouged out, and a smile appeared on a bloody face, which looked very hideous.

After waiting for Qian Lao Er to come out again to announce the victory, the winged tiger also fell, and the whole person was dying. After the yacha dragged the three of them away and cleaned the venue briefly, Qian Lao Er walked back to the center of the field, still arching his hand upstairs, and said loudly with a smile: "The first round of today's game was won by the winged tiger, and Qian Lao Er is here to congratulate the distinguished guests who bet on the treasure." Round 2, start now! After that, he waved his hand at the yacha of the passage and shouted, "Release people!" ”

Soon, three more prisoners walked out of different passages, and Jiang Xiaobai was among them, so he listened to Qian Lao Er's introduction one by one: "This is the second round of goods, which are leopard heads, nine-striped dragons, and blue-faced beasts. This is the last round of today, don't go to the treasure anymore, you can start betting! ”

As soon as Qian Lao'er finished speaking, a young brother took out a large stack of silver tickets from his arms and laughed: "This fucking leopard head, the body is not strong at all, it's almost the same as a cat's head!" After laughing, he threw the silver ticket on the desk, and shouted again, "Lao Tzu buys a thousand taels, nine-striped dragon!" ”

As soon as everyone heard the words of this boy, they immediately burst into laughter, holding their bellies and leaning back to the ground, all laughing at the leopard's head standing in the middle of the game.

"Young Master Chen is right, this leopard's head must be the first to wilt, and Lao Tzu will also bet a thousand taels, nine-striped dragon!"

"The blue-faced beast is not bad, look at that face, there is a lot of evil, Lao Tzu bet five hundred taels!"

"Fuck! You all look down on the leopard's head, and I'm going to bet on him, a thousand taels, the leopard's head! "A young master dressed in purple doesn't believe in evil.

This remark caused laughter in the hall again, "I said Young Master Sun, do you think this silver is fishy or smelly, do you give money like this, hahaha." ”

"You care about Lao Tzu, I don't have much else, just a lot of money!" The young master in purple pursed his lips and choked back again.

The leopard head that everyone laughed at in their mouths was Jiang Xiaobai.

After the dignitaries and dignitaries upstairs had placed their bets, and after the record was completed, Qian Lao Er repeated what he had just said to the three prisoners in the field, and then left the venue quickly.

Smelling the smell of blood on the field, and looking at the nine-striped dragon and the blue-faced beast staring at him with murderous intent not far away, Jiang Xiaobai chuckled lightly at the corner of his mouth, raised his hand, and made a gesture of the two of you.
