Shi Le made up his mind and decided to pretend to cooperate and take the opportunity to escape, so he wanted to see Huang Fan the next day. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
After the jailer called Huang Fan over, Shi Le said: "Lord Huang, I thought about it all night yesterday, I think this is a great opportunity, if you don't die, you can get a sum of money to go home, and if you lose, you can leave a sum of money for your family, if you don't come here, I won't be able to eat now, my lord, I decided to fight this well." ā
Huang Fan was overjoyed to see Shi Le so open, and said: "Okay, then I can rest assured, I will never treat you badly, and when you leave, I will apply to the prince for a thousand taels of silver for you." ā
Shi Le said in his heart, don't lie to me, it takes a lot of effort to twenty taels, but he said on his face: "Shi Le's net worth is tied to the adult, but the little one has a small request." ā
"Say."
"Adult, the little one wants to see the fifth-level gladiatorial arena, first, to be familiar with the environment, and second, to be foolproof."
Huang Fan stroked his beard, thought for a while, and said, "Okay, today I will send someone to take you to the gladiatorial arena and explain to you what you should pay attention to." ā
"Master Xie, such a small one can do it in his heart." Hearing that Huang Fan agreed, Shi Le was overjoyed in his heart.
Huang Fan went out to find four sergeants, and escorted Shi Le to the fifth-level gladiatorial arena in a car, Shi Le was still shackled with hands and feet, and he would only be untied when it was time for a real gladiatorial fight.
The gladiatorial arena is at the foot of Luliang Mountain in the western suburbs, a small tributary of the Fen River, the Guizi River, flows through the outlet, the forest is verdant under the mountain, the terrain is high and low, while looking at the terrain, someone explains to him.
After explaining, Shile knew that the spectators of this gladiatorial arena were very scattered, and there was no formal viewing point, because there was no place to see the whole picture, so sometimes the spectators would follow on both sides, and some would only see the results at the end.
The gladiators need to start from the starting point, and under the pursuit of eighty sergeants, cross the Kidnapping River and climb the Luliang halfway up the mountainside, and pick a fruit to win.
Schle's careful look at the route was not about winning or losing, but about finding the best place to escape.
When Shile returned, he lay quietly on the bed and thought about it, recombing what he had seen, and it was really difficult to find an escape point, because the sergeant hinted that there were many sergeants around him, in order to prevent the death row prisoner from escaping.
Shile thought of only one place to escape, and that was the Kidnapper River, according to the rules, whether he could swim or not, he had the right to row a small boat to the opposite bank, but there would be twenty boats on the water for the sergeants, and it was possible to row to the other side if he escaped the pursuit of these boats.
Shi Le wanted to do his best at the beginning, in order to come to the Guizi River as soon as possible, as long as he got on the boat, he went down the river, and when he rushed to the main channel of the Fen River, no one would chase him.
Shi Le made up his mind to do so, whether it was life or death, it was better to gamble than to sit back and wait for death.
A few days later, Shile was sent to the arena by the sergeant, where he was removed from his shackles, made him move his hands and feet, and then brought him to the starting point, still with a mask on his face.
Huang Fan had already led a group of local tyrants here, and the local tyrants brought more than a dozen boxes of silver, which was a million taels, this was their bet, not only that, but in front of a dozen boxes of silver, there were sixty or seventy elite men, all of whom were wearing green clothes, each holding a weapon, and they should be the bodyguards of the local tyrants.
Huang Fan asked one of the leaders of the local tyrants: "Everything is ready, please bet." ā
The leader glanced at Shi Le and asked, "Lord Huang, the one next to you is the ghost-faced man." ā
"Yes."
The leader pointed to more than a dozen boxes of silver and said: "Lord Huang, this is one million taels of silver that we have put together by several of us, all of them are bet, we want to bet on the ghost face and lose, according to the rules, you have to tell the odds." āā
Huang Fan thought to himself that it would be easy for you to bet on him to lose, winning or losing is under my control, he said: "The odds are one to one." ā
"Lord Huang, that means if the Ghost-faced Man loses, we will be able to get two million taels of silver with interest?"
"Yes, that's always been the case."
"Okay, we agree."
"Then let's get started, the sergeant prepares ......"
At this time, the leading local tyrant stood up and said: "Lord Huang, we don't want to bother the sergeants in today's gladiatorial fight, you see, we brought sixty men today to replace your eighty sergeants, does Lord Huang agree?" ā
Huang Fan knew that they were prepared, since they gambled on Shi Le to lose, they were naturally afraid that the sergeant would not work hard, so they would change people, and the local tyrants replaced eighty people with sixty people If they don't agree, they will appear to be selfish, Shi Le is a gold medal gladiator, and he will definitely be able to escape the chase to reach the end, even if Shi Le dies in the middle of the road, he still has a "killer move"!
Huang Fan replied: "Okay, I agree, but we are not responsible for the loss of your personnel!" ā
"This nature, this nature, these are all dead soldiers we spent money to recruit, life and death are fateful, Lord Huang, can we start?"
Huang Fan said: "It's okay." ā
The leader summoned sixty men in Tsing Yi to the starting point, and had someone explain the rules of the game to them, showed them the route, and then returned to the starting point.
After a while, Shile was pushed to the starting line, and an officer waved his arm: "One ...... Two...... Three ......"
"Let's go!"
Shi Le jumped out of the ground in an instant, and then, sixty men brandished weapons and chased after him!
Shi Le ran desperately, swishing arrows flew past him, but he couldn't care about these, whether he was dead or alive was left to fate, he should gamble, he ran all the way, suddenly, with the barking of dogs, two hunting dogs chased up, this is a local tyrant added, there is no in the rules of the game, but Huang Fan let it go in order to earn silver.
The two hounds caught up with Shile, Shile's pants were grabbed by the dogs, and two pieces were torn off, and he almost fell to the ground, and when he turned around, the two dogs had already pounced!
Shi Le grabbed the necks of the two dogs with both hands, and when he pinched them hard, the two dogs were killed instantly!
Some of the men who ran fast had already caught up, and in the face of four or five men with knives and guns, Shi Le had already lost his fear, because he had no way to retreat, either you died or I lived, so cruel, he grabbed a gun, stabbed them to death one after another, threw down the gun and ran forward.
From time to time someone catches up, and from time to time someone dies, and by a third of the way, the team of sixty people has broken twenty people.
Seeing the Kidnapper River, there was a small boat there, Shile untied the cable and rowed to the center of the river, and the people who came also got on twenty boats to chase Shile, but they saw that Shile did not row towards the other bank, but went down the river, and someone understood and shouted: "He is going to run away, he is going to run away!" ā
Shi Le rowed the boat hard, and it was downstream, drifting far away for a while, the leader faintly saw this scene on the mountain, thinking that it would be difficult to say victory if Shi Le escaped, how to make Huang Fan willing to lose money, he hurriedly said: "Lord Huang, the ghost-faced man deviated from the route and escaped, please send someone to chase after him quickly!" ā
Huang Fan smiled in his heart, Shi Le, Shi Le, you kid just run, anyway, if you run, there will be no winner, and I don't have to lose my silver, and I will ...... the money of the local tyrants Hee-hee......
Huang Fan had a wishful thinking, and had to send someone to chase after him, and secretly nodded to the leading officer, the officer understood, and led the people to shout on the shore only as if they were not really arresting Shile, and the local tyrants were so anxious that they only stomped their feet!
Forty men knew that it was not easy for Shile to escape, and that the matter was very important, so they rowed forward at full speed and chased after him.
Shi Le was strong, of course, he rowed fast, and the soldiers on the shore threw farther and farther, just when he was happy, the water in front of him was getting shallower and shallower, and he could already see the pebbles at the bottom of the water, and after a while, the boat ran aground directly!
The men behind shouted and chased after them, and they were gradually approaching!
