Chapter 145: Wild Duel 7
Sangran won a punch, naturally he would not let go of the opportunity to continue the attack, just when Barrant's body was just standing firm, he had already rushed to Barrant's body, and the huge fist slammed into Barrant again.
Barrant had just been smashed by Sangland's punch and his internal organs were as painful as if he had moved his position, and now he saw Sangland's fist smashed into himself, and a breath of death enveloped his heart, making him feel uncomfortable, he instinctively made dodging movements, but unfortunately because his body had just stood firm, his dodging action was a little stiff, and he did not dodge Sangland's attack, and his chest was blasted by Sangland.
Bang!
Barrant took three steps back in a row before he fell to the ground.
Sangran did not dare to relax at this time, so he saw him rush forward, came to Barrant again, kicked Barrant, who was just about to get up, to the ground, rode on him, and opened the bow left and right with an iron fist, and in an instant, Barrant was sent to the underworld to report.
"How so?"
"That's incredible, isn't it? How can the Persians be so vulnerable! ”
The audience couldn't help but exclaim. They were stunned by the duel scene in front of them. Because compared with killing people with knives and guns, smashing a person to death with a fist is the most impactful of people's vision and senses.
"Barbarian, you're good, I didn't bet."
"Barbarian, you didn't let Lao Tzu lose money, Lao Tzu promised you that it would definitely be done, you can rest assured." Many gamblers who were betting on Sangran outside the court yelled with joy.
Seeing this scene, the corners of Li Hong's mouth couldn't help but smile. And Cheng Dazhi and Yan Zhuang beside him didn't say a word with sad faces. Because they lost the bet between them and Li Hong, they thought that no matter how bad the Persian Barant was, he would be able to draw with Sangran, who would have thought that he would be stoned to death by Sangran's iron fist.
"Your Highness, we lost!" Halfway through, Yan Zhuang spoke.
"Lone already knew you were going to lose, remember your bet!" Li Hong said with a smile.
Yan Zhuang and Cheng Dazhi's faces were even more embarrassed, Li Hong asked them for money, even if they were not worth much, they could get some money, but if they asked for talents, they would really make it difficult.
Li Hong also knew that it would be very difficult for the two of them to do so, but he was not prepared to withdraw the bet.
At this time, I saw Sangelan being taken into the box.
This Tibetan gladiator walked into the box, and suddenly saw the crown prince Li Hongshi sitting on everyone's seat, and was stunned for a moment, and then came back to his senses. And when he didn't know what to call Li Hong, someone on the side had already shouted, "When you see His Royal Highness the Prince, why don't you salute quickly?" ”
Sangelan hurriedly bowed down and said, "Sangelan sees His Royal Highness the Prince of the Tang Dynasty!" ”
Sangelan didn't expect that it was the prince of the Tang Dynasty who wanted to see him, he was both excited and excited, and a little nervous and apprehensive. He didn't know what the young crown prince was seeing him for.
"Did you surprise to see you alone?" Li Hong saw Sanglan's puzzled and tense expression, so he asked with a smile.
"Yes." Sangran bowed down and replied, "I was surprised that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince met me. ”
The smile on Li Hong's face disappeared, replaced by a serious face, he stared at Sangran and asked, "I want to ask you, do you think it's surprising that you can defeat the Persian Barrant today?" ”
When Sangelan heard Li Hong ask himself this, he replied without hesitation, "Not surprised. Because I believe I can win him, and I can kill him in the arena, because he is weaker than me, and he is not as eager to win as I am. ”
Li Hong smiled, what he wanted was an answer like Sanglan's.
Therefore, he opened his mouth and continued to ask, "Since you are so confident in defeating Barant, you should not be too surprised to see Lone. ”
Seeing Sanglan's confused look, he continued to explain, "Because, Lone likes to see a strong man rise to fight in all directions, and you have the potential to become a strong man, so Lone will make an exception to see you today." ”
"What does His Royal Highness the Crown Prince mean?" Sangran was a little puzzled, and seemed to understand what Li Hong meant, very excited, and a little incredulous, and now the expression on his face was very complicated.
"Can you win four battles today, tell me, is there any secret?" Li Hong asked very seriously.
"There's no secret, it's just that I want to be free, and I'm willing to do my best for freedom." Sangelan replied without thinking, and then he added, "I was a slave when I was in Tibet, not only was I not free, but I didn't even have the expectation of freedom for myself, after the defeat, I was captured, sent to the Tang Dynasty as a slave, and became a gladiator in the gladiatorial arena, only to know that as long as I can win, I can win thirty games in a row to be free, so I have the hope and opportunity to be free, so I don't want to give up this opportunity, even if this opportunity is very slim." ”
"You're honest, and Lone appreciates your honesty." Li Hong was very satisfied with Sangland's answer, "You don't need to win thirty games in a row, as long as you win fifteen games in a row and don't die, and if you want to make a career after you are free, you will come to find Gu." ”
Speaking of this, Li Hong moved his gaze to Cheng Dazhi again and said, "When the time comes, you just tell him." ”
"Thank you, Your Highness!" Sangran was overjoyed, hurriedly saluted Li Hong, and then withdrew from the private room. After Sangelan left, Yan Zhuang asked puzzledly, "But a Tibetan effort, why does His Highness value him so much?" ”
Li Hong smiled but did not speak.
In fact, he did this with a deeper meaning.
He had an agreement with Princess Gesang that when he got rid of Lu Dongzan, Tubo would lend him 100,000 cavalry and let him conquer the Western Regions. However, Li Hong was very worried about the issue of generals, if he used the generals of Tubo, these people might not be loyal to him, but if he used the generals around him, the Tubo cavalry might not be convinced. And today, when I saw Sangran duel, he was so brave, and he didn't win the duel by brute force alone. He came up with the idea of cultivating Sangelan and making him the commander of his future Tubo cavalry, and only then did he have the question and answer just now.
Because this was a secret agreement between him and Princess Gesang, because it was inconvenient to reveal it to everyone, he didn't explain to Yan Zhuang when Yan Zhuang asked him just now.
Yan Zhuang saw that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was just smiling and silent, so he didn't ask anymore, but whispered, "Your Highness, will you go back to the palace later, or..."
"If you don't go back to the palace, I haven't been to Yanshoufang for a long time, so I'll go to Yanshoufang later." Li Hong said lightly.
Hearing that the prince was going to Yanshoufang, Yan Zhuang's eyes lit up, how could others not know what the prince was going to do when he went to Yanshoufang? He hurriedly bowed down and retreated to prepare.
"Cheng Dazhi, for Sanglan, don't give him any preferential treatment, but don't abuse him either, give him the strongest opponent in the rest of the games, if he can win fifteen games in a row, you will bring him to the East Palace to see Gu." Li Hong got up and said to Cheng Dazhi.
"No!" Cheng Dazhi received the order, and personally sent Li Hong out of the box, and sent him out of the gladiatorial arena.
