Chapter 14: Betting
Xue Lian and Ying'er also returned to the carriage after the convenience, and after we looked at each other awkwardly and smiled, I took out the water to wash their faces and brush their teeth, and then ate some dry food and continued on their way.
The scenery along the way is particularly beautiful, there are towering trees and green spaces everywhere, some unknown wildflowers compete to open, the whole earth is full of life, looking at the scenery in front of me I can't help but think back to the earth, I have never seen such a beautiful scenery after living on the earth for sixteen years, only high-rise buildings in the image, the only vegetation is those banyan trees in the green belt, think about it is also sad, the earthlings in order to develop, excessively destroyed its original ecological environment, resulting in a series of chain reactions, and finally punished the creatures in the entire ecological environment, now think about it and feel that the earth human beings seem to be too selfish, because of their own mistakes and countless living beings, I just hope that one day when I return to the earth, I can see the earth full of life!
Today we rushed a lot faster, and it was just after noon that we arrived at one of the gates of Phoenix, and looked at the people or carriages waiting in line to enter the city like a torrent, and couldn't help but sigh, this is almost like the world to go home for the Spring Festival and wait in line at the entrance of the highway for free time.
The walls of Phoenix City are about 20 meters high, and the entire city wall is made of giant stone strips, each of which is one meter long. Fifty centimeters wide, and according to the information given to me by Xiao Qi, the outermost city wall of Phoenix City covers an area of 15,000 square kilometers, and there are six layers of city walls separated by residences, a bit like the ring road on the earth, the seventh layer of the city wall is surrounded by the imperial city, which is inhabited by the royal family of Huolin Kingdom, the royal family of Huolin Kingdom is surnamed Li, the contemporary emperor is named Li Hongjun, the queen Gu Yanru, there are six sons and two daughters under his knees, the prince is named Li Chaoyang, is Li Hongjun's most proud son, it is said that Li Hongjun was the first contemporary person of the younger generation of Huolin Country when he was twenty years old, and his cultivation is unfathomable, and now five years have passed, and his cultivation must be more sophisticated!
"Dad, how long do we have to wait!Ying'er is grumbling with hunger~~~" We queued up outside the city gate for an hour and haven't entered the city, and I heard from the people around us that now because of the upcoming event in Phoenix, the entry and exit of the city gate are now more strict.
"Let's eat some fruit first, and then wait, it'll be our turn soon." "I put my hand into the curtain of the car, handed a few fruits to Ying'er, the little girl is impatient, how long to wait for can't wait, I think when your father was on the earth, I waited for more than two hours to wait for someone to throw a mineral water bottle, and finally people were uncomfortable with me, so I didn't finish drinking it and gave it to me.........
After waiting for nearly an hour, we entered the city, and we were greeted by rows of shops, all kinds of food, use, play, and pastime!
We found an inn to stay, ordered a table of dishes, and after eating in the room, I explained a few words to Xuelian and then left the inn alone and went to the registration place for the event.
After spending a low-grade spirit jade and successfully reporting the name of the contestant's token, I walked towards the inn where Snow Lotus and the others were.
"Come on, come on, don't miss it when you pass by! The new opening handicap, the odds are unprecedented! Make a fortune today!" A burst of yo ho caught my attention, looking up at the original is a casino in the opening market, the most unusual thing is that this handicap is about to be held in the event of the top ten candidates list prediction, at this time the casino predicted the list of the top ten players are the first: Han Han, 20 years old, the middle of the foundation, the odds of 1 Pei 1.2; the second place: Qi Dao, 19 years old, the early stage of the foundation, Odds 1 Pei 1.5;Third place: Li Chaoxun, 19 years old, early stage of foundation building, odds 1 with 1.8;Fourth place: Jiang Rourou, 18 years old, early stage of foundation building, odds 1 with 1.9;Fifth place: Hong Lei, 19 years old, early stage of foundation building, odds 1 with 2;Sixth place: Ningxia, 19 years old, early stage of foundation building, odds 1 with 2.1; Seventh place: Meng Ting, 18 years old, early stage of foundation building, odds 1 with 2.3; Eighth place: Ao Xiaoming, 17 years old, early stage of foundation building, odds 1 with 3; Ninth place: Zhao Shijie, 17 years old, The early stage of foundation building, odds 1 with 5, 10th place: Han Lulu, 15 years old, early stage of foundation building, odds 1 with 8!
The other monks who participated in the grand event were about 6,700 people, and among these people, there were many dark horse-level players, such as this Mo Zihao, he can be regarded as one of the top ten strong contenders, and at the age of 15, he had already practiced Qi seventh-level cultivation, which can be regarded as a dark horse! There are many players like this, and their odds are also very high, basically more than 1 to 10, if you buy Mo Zihao's 10 lower-grade spirit jade and his ranking at the event is squeezed into the top ten, then you will get 100 lower-grade spirit jade, this odds are not high.........!
"it!?Why is my brother's name last?" I carefully searched for my name, and found the words Fang Yuan at the end of the billboard: Fang Yuan, 16 years old, cultivation unknown, odds of 1 to 100.........
“......... Uh! Don't you look down on my brother so much? Didn't I just ask Xiao Qi to help me hide my cultivation when I signed up just now? Do you know what it means to be low-key? Damn!" I was standing in place with black lines all over my face, this is too looking down on people, isn't it.........?! I've made a fortune!
Thinking of this, I immediately pushed aside the crowd and squeezed towards the casino, and those who were still hesitating at the door of the casino were suddenly squeezed by me and complained.........
"Squeeze what!? Hurry up and reincarnate!"
"Damn, who the stepped on my feet!?"
"My Egg~~~"
..................
"I use a medium-grade spirit jade to buy this Fang Yuan to enter the top ten!" I shouted loudly in front of the window of the casino handicap, and suddenly the crowd let out one after another.........
Passerby A: "Who is this?!Brain disease!?Actually use a medium-grade spirit jade to buy this unknown boy can enter the top ten, and his head won't be caught by the door, right?"
Passerby B: "A medium-grade spirit jade can buy a kid with unknown strength to enter the top ten?
Passerby C: "It's really rich and capricious! I'd better forget about this kind of high-risk investment! Or buy the sixth prince Li Chaoxun, I believe the royal family will definitely have a killer feature!"
Passerby: "........."

"Are you sure you want to use a medium-grade spirit jade to buy a chance to enter the top ten?" A middle-aged man in the window looked at me curiously and said, he has seen a lot of stupid people and a lot of money in these years, but he really hasn't seen too many 'Lengtouqing' like me, so he couldn't help but ask.
"Yes, I want to be in the top ten!" I took out a medium-grade spirit jade and slapped it on the board in front of the window, this kind of opportunity to make a fortune is not much! If I miss it, I will regret it!
"Then do you want to raise? As long as you make a low-grade spirit jade, you can double the raise, and so on, do you want to raise?" The middle-aged man in the window told me about the raise according to the process, and suddenly stirred up a thousand waves in my heart! This is the rhythm of getting rich! If I add ten notes, it is not equivalent to ten times more on the original basis! I want to think about it, if I buy a medium-grade spirit jade, I will lose a hundred medium-grade spirit jade, and then multiply it ten times, isn't it a thousand medium-grade spirit jade! With my current strength, I don't dare to say that I can get the first place, but if I want to enter the top ten, I don't think there is basically any problem!
"Then add ten bets to me!" I took out another medium-grade spirit jade and slapped it on the board, startling the middle-aged man.
"I'm afraid this person has a problem with his brain, right? I don't hesitate to add ten notes in one breath, it's really a fool every year, and there are a lot of them this year!" The middle-aged man in the window silently put away the two medium-grade spirit jades I put on the board, and thought in his heart while giving me a slip.
"Okay, this is the voucher that our casino gave you, if you buy it, you can use it as a voucher to come to our casino to claim the prize, of course, if you don't buy it, this voucher will be useless, and your two medium-grade spirit jade will be lost." "The middle-aged man opened the voucher and stamped it with the seal of their casino, then handed it to me.
"Okay. Thank you!" I left happily with the slip, leaving a group of melon-eating people there to discuss.
"It's a pity! If only I had more money in my hand!" I looked at the slip and muttered to myself, but I still understand the basic principle that you can't be too greedy.
I wandered around the street for a while, bought a few pieces of jewelry for Xuelian that looked good, and then walked to the inn, and bought a few snacks for Ying'er on the way, saving this girl from resentment.
Walking into the inn, when going up the stairs, I put the casino's credentials into the storage space of the system while there was no one around, this thing is better not to be discovered by Xue Lian, otherwise I am afraid that she will misunderstand that I am a good gambler.
"Ying'er! Look what delicious food Dad bought for you!" I knocked on the door and called softly, Ying'er, this girl, heard that I was back, and hurriedly jumped over to open the door for me.
"Wow! It's honey crisp! Ying'er likes to eat honey crisp the most! Thank you, Dad!" Ying'er turned out to be in the paper bag in my hand and saw the pieces of honey crisp inside, she danced happily, and hurriedly showed it to Xuelian, I smiled, closed the door and sat down at the wooden table.
"Xuelian, why do you still have to bring a face towel in the room, take it off, it's very sad to wear that thing for a long time. ”
"Thank you husband for your concern, the Lun family will take it off. "Snow Lotus poured me a cup of tea and took off the face towel, and the moment I took it off, I lost my mind again............
"Snow Lotus, you are so beautiful!, compared to fairies, there are no better!" I couldn't help but praise out loud, this is not a compliment and from the heart, such a beautiful fairy-like woman is actually my wife, it feels incredible to think about it!
"Husband Jun Miao praised, the Lun family is just an ordinary woman, what kind of fairy is it!" Xue Lian was praised by me so that her cheeks were flushed, and her shy appearance was so charming!
"Xuelian, come and sit here, I have something for you. I took Snow Lotus's little hand and walked to the dresser, sat her on a stool in front of the dressing mirror, and took out the jewelry box in the sleeve pocket.
"Husband, you are spending money for the Lun family again........."
"What kind of money is this called? Buying a few pieces of jewelry for the lady is not a waste of money, besides, we are about to make a windfall, and I will buy you better ones when the time comes!"
"My husband understands my intentions, but don't buy other jewelry, after all, there are still a lot of places where my husband will use money in the future........."
