Chapter 38: Spectating the Battle
"But, Senior Brother Du, with my current situation, I can't go to the ring battle, right?"
Thinking that once he was exposed, the person who assassinated him would probably intercept him along the way again, Jiang Han frowned slightly and said.
"That's not necessarily, the disciples of the sect privately held a gambling battle in the ring, in order to avoid revenge on each other in private. Everybody wears a mask. ”
"So, if we disguise ourselves and take advantage of the darkness, we will secretly participate. Then, the chances of someone secretly trying to assassinate you are very low. ”
"After all, we've been hiding in this ashram for six or seven days. It is impossible for the other party to have the patience to spy on you day and night. And even if the other person does, there will be times for napping, right?"
With a faint smile, Du Hong said with a bit of confidence.
"This... If that's the case, then Senior Brother Laudu, arrange it for me, let's pick a time, go to the place where the ring is held, and walk around. ”
"Well, by the day, there should be a rally tomorrow night. ”
"So, let's fix up for the day today, and tomorrow night, let's go. ”
"Okay, it's all about Senior Brother Laudu. ”
“。。。 ”
The next day, after dark, at the back door of the Mengfang courtyard. Several black-clothed people wearing black cloaks and masks quietly left Meng Fang's mansion from the back door.
After that, the men in black were divided into three teams, two pairs each. They rushed in different directions to the Fengyang Sect.
"Senior Brother Du, why did you say that if that assassin is still tracking me tonight, you will definitely find out?"
After running a distance, Jiang Han was full of curiosity and asked Du Hong.
"Hehe, it's not that difficult. ”
"Yesterday, I arranged some people in advance to set up an ambush on our three travel routes tonight. ”
"Therefore, if the other party really sends someone to keep an eye on us, then as long as the person who is secretly watching us pursues us, he will definitely be discovered by the people I arranged. ”
With a faint smile, Du Hong explained casually.
"I see, it seems that having Senior Brother Du, an old Jianghu to help me, is really a great blessing in my life. ”
With an understanding of the eyebrows, Jiang Han said a compliment to Du Hong in a deep voice.
"Where, Brother Jiang Han, you're polite. Du's unpopular experience, if you go out for a few years, you will be familiar with it. ”
Waving his hand, Du Hong said politely.
Then, in the small talk between the two of them, a ring hidden in the valley behind the Fengyang Sect, surrounded by hundreds of people, appeared in the eyes of the two.
"Brother Jiang Han, I'll take you over there first, verify your cultivation, and receive an exclusive identity token. ”
After arriving in the valley, Du Hong was familiar with it and pointed out to Jiang Han.
"Well, let's go. ”
Nodding, Jiang Han followed Du Hong to the north corner of the valley.
Then, after passing the test stone and verifying his cultivation, he received a piece of identity token exclusive to him.
And this token is Jiang Han's qualification certificate to participate in the ring battle later.
"In the next game, the defender, the black bear, the Eight Heavens of the Quenching Realm. The record is seven wins and three losses. ”
"The challenge fee, 1,000 yuan stones, those who quench the body realm eight heavens or below, can challenge. Is there anyone up for the fight?"
In the ring, a strong man with a height of two meters and a giant mace in his hand, with a proud expression, stood in the ring, waiting for the challenger.
"Brother Jiang Han, in the ring battle, the defender generally speaking, you can set it yourself and challenge the cost. The challenger, on the other hand, has to pay the equivalent amount of yuan stone before he can challenge in the ring. ”
"When the time comes, whoever wins will take away the yuan stone handed over by both parties. ”
"And for Yuanshi, the casualty rate of the ring battle is infinitely close to that of the life and death ring. ”
Just when the host in the ring announced the basic information of the black bear to the onlookers, Du Hong explained some of the details of the ring battle to Jiang Han in a deep voice.
"Of course, if you don't dare to go on stage, then, after the fighter appears, you will immediately open a bet according to the candidate's record and strength. Onlookers can then place bets based on their perceived winner. ”
"And later, if you play, Du will buy 10,000 yuan no matter what the odds are, and you won. ”
"Senior Brother Du, are you so confident in me?"
Hearing that Du Hong had to buy himself to win no matter what the odds were, Jiang Han felt a little flattered.
After all, his own strength, a few catties and a few taels, Du Hong is afraid that he knows better than anyone else.
"Hehe, Brother Jiang Han, I, Du Hong, believe in a word, and if I see it, I will place a heavy bet. If it weren't for you at the moment, you still need to train to reach the best state. Then I'll stay for a while, but not just 10,000 yuan, but all my net worth. up"
Looking at Jiang Han with a bright eye, Du Hong said in a deep voice.
"Okay, since Senior Brother Du is so optimistic about me. ”
"Then tonight, if I go to the ring, I will fight hard, and I will also win the first victory for Senior Brother Du. ”
Laughing softly, Jiang Han solemnly promised.
"Hehe, Brother Jiang Han, you don't need to work hard, at best, be careful, don't be overshadowed. ”
"What you lack is experience, not strength. Therefore, unless the other party uses means, otherwise, in the same realm, I always think that you have won. ”
Waving his hand, Du Hong's confidence in Jiang Han was almost bursting.
"If no one responds to the battle, then Lao Tzu will have to pocket this big piece of Yuanshi. ”
Just when Jiang Han and Du Hong were chatting in a low voice, someone in the crowd finally jumped into the ring and took the black bear's gamble.
"Very well, ghost hands. Ghost Hand has a record of 18 wins and 10 losses. Now, you have 100 minutes to place your bet, and the base odds are 9 to 10. ”
After the person who responded to the battle jumped into the ring and handed over his token to the host to verify his identity, the host reported the record of the man nicknamed the ghost hand to everyone. and the base odds between him and the Black Bears.
Then, after the basic odds were reported, everyone began to place bets at the long tables on the left and right sides of the ring.
"Lao Tzu buys a black bear to win, 500 yuan stone. ”
"I bought 1,000 yuan stone for ghost hands. ”
"Lao Tzu buys a black bear, 300 yuan stone. ”
“。。。 ”
With a bit of crazy betting, one after another, it sounded.
In one night, there can be about 20 to 25 gambling games, of which, every 3 days, a gambling fight at the Quenching Realm level is held, and every 10 days, a gambling fight at the Innate level. As for the gambling battles at the level of the True Martial Realm, they are held from time to time.
"Big man, are you ready to die?"
"The ghost master promises that you won't even have a chance to make a move. ”
After 100 breaths, when everyone finished placing bets, the gambling fight officially began.
Before the start of the game, the ghost hand, who was more experienced in combat, was quite contemptuous, and provoked the man nicknamed the black bear.
However, the man nicknamed the black bear did not speak, but only shook the mace in his hand slightly, and acted instead of answering.
"Come on, ghost hand, gouge out that big stupid bear's eyeball... ”
"Black bear, don't be merciful, wait a while, completely cripple a pair of claws of the ghost hand. ”
Before the two officially started the war, their respective supporters were all full of energy, shouting and cheering for the players they supported.
"Begin ... ”
Seeing that the emotions were almost rendered, the masked man who presided over the gambling fight shouted loudly.
And at the moment when he said the beginning, the man called the ghost hand disappeared instantly, and then, after about a breath, the ghost hand spanned a distance of four or five zhang and appeared directly behind the black bear's side, and then, a pair of sharp claws, brought out the afterimage, and grabbed the black bear's neck.
"So fast... ”
Seeing that the attack speed of the ghost hand was as fast as thunder, Jiang Han couldn't help but exclaim, and secretly wondered how to deal with the attack of the ghost hand if it was himself.
"Thousand Needles Burst"
When the sharp claws of the ghost hand were about to grab his neck, the giant mace held by the black bear suddenly burst out one after another, covering the sky and shooting towards the body of the ghost hand in the air, without dead ends, flying away.
Even he himself was within the range of the cone.
