035, fighting arena
The SUV drove along the streets of Sumen without hurry, and finally stopped in front of a street restaurant. At this time, it was nearly twelve o'clock at noon, and several people planned to have lunch before going to have some entertainment.
"Brother, in fact, this Sumen night is the highlight of entertainment." At the dinner table, Xiong Xingxing said with a smile.
"Really?" Fang Shi was slightly surprised, last time he and his adjutant Gu Ruxin came during the day, and they left after a walk, and they didn't know much about this Su Men.
Xiong Xingxing still kept smiling, and said with great certainty: "Of course, you will know about it at night, and some amazing programs are generally only available at night, if you are lucky, hehe......"
Fang Shi frowned slightly, this Xiong Xingxing smiled a little obscenely, and made a preliminary judgment in his heart, eighty percent of the amazing program in the evening was not a good program.
"Hehe, but there is also a good program in the afternoon, and you can make some money by the way, it won't start until two o'clock, let's eat slowly, and we'll go over at about the same time." Xiong Xingxing said with a little excitement while eating.
Fang Shi was slightly curious and asked, "What program?" ”
Xiong Xingxing sold the pass and replied: "You will know the Tao when you arrive, just remember to buy me, and ensure that you will make a steady profit and not lose money." ”
"Buy you? What do you mean? Fang Shi was a little confused.
……
After a few people finished eating, they took a casual stroll, and then went to the place that Xiong Xingxing said.
The buggy stopped near a two-story circular building.
"Brother, it's here. There it is. Xiong Xingxing's tone was tinged with excitement, pointing to the circular building not far away.
Fang Shi glanced at it, and there was a slight doubt in his heart, there was no sign at the entrance of the circular building, but there was an endless stream of people entering and leaving, and there were four strong men in uniform at the entrance passage, and everyone who entered seemed to have to pay them a certain fee.
"Brother Xiong, what kind of place is it?" Fang Shi looked at it for a few seconds and asked calmly.
Xiong Xingxing didn't sell anything this time, and walked towards the round building. He said unhurriedly, "It's a fighting arena. Similar to a boxing arena, but without the many rules of boxing, the two sides fight empty-handed, and whoever knocks the opponent down first is considered a winner. Of course, if the other party takes the initiative to admit defeat, it can be regarded as a win. ”
Fang Shi heard this. Only then did I realize that this rotunda was actually a fighting arena. After a pause for a few seconds, he continued to ask, "Brother Xiong, are you going to participate in martial arts?" "I remember that Xiong Xingxing asked him to buy each other just now. If I'm not mistaken, there should still be gambling in the arena.
Xiong Xingxing nodded and said, "Well, this fighter who signs up for martial arts will be rewarded with three thousand star Luo coins if he wins one game, which is a good reward, and there are bets with different odds for each fighting match." ”
"Isn't that gambling?" Fang Shi frowned slightly, it seemed that this small city of Sumen was more complicated than he expected, not only there were public street girls, but also gambling activities similar to underground boxing.
Xiong Xingxing did not object, and said: "It can be said that it can be said, but these military secretly allow it, otherwise there may be room for its existence." ”
Soon, Fang Shi walked to the door of the circular building, handed over twenty star Luo coins per person, and walked into the circular building. The interior of the building is not very large, similar to a miniature stadium, in the middle is a square fighting stage, the stage is surrounded by auditoriums, the audience seats are ramped for easy viewing, and the whole audience is estimated to be able to seat more than 2,000 people.
At this time, the audience seat was already seated nearly half of the audience, and groups of people walked into the arena one after another.
Fang Shi and a few people sat down on the seats near the middle, among which Xiong Xingxing and Zhu Chang left as soon as they determined their positions, and walked into a corner ramp, and said to Fang Shi when they left, the two of them went to see if there was a place for fighting, and if there were, they would naturally go on stage to challenge one or two.
Soon after, Xiong Xingxing and Zhu Chang returned to the seating area, and there was only one fighting place, and Xiong Xingxing would fight, but the number of matches arranged was later, and they were scheduled for the ninth match. There are 10 fights scheduled for each fight, and the ninth is almost coming to an end.
Soon, a man in his fifties walked up to the center stage, and with a modest smile on his face, spoke for nearly five minutes before finally announcing that the first fight had begun, and ceremoniously introducing the two fighters.
The two fighters stepped out of the ramp leading to the center stage on both sides and stepped onto the stage, both of them were about 1.8 meters tall, wearing boxer-like shorts and revealing strong muscles with a very visual impact on their upper bodies.
The referee on the stage did not rush to announce the start of the game, but waited until some of the spectators finished betting before announcing the start of the game.
The battle is on the verge of breaking out!
The two fighters were like a wind of punches and kicks, and the attacks were like a tidal wave, and a fierce fight began almost instantly.
Looking at the fighting on the stage, a trace of surprise flashed in Fang Shi's eyes, the two fighters seemed to be military personnel, and the attack was simple and direct, without the slightest drag, and there was a chilling style of military fighting.
"Bang, bang......"
The impact of fists and fists, the confrontation between the force and the force, looks quite visual.
One-minute, two-minute, three-minute......
The two men seemed to be evenly matched, and it wasn't until the fifth minute that they were almost evenly matched, with one of them striking a precise elbow to seal the advantage, and then another fierce attack sealed the victory.
The winner is a little elated, and the loser is slightly disappointed. And the crowd in the audience was similarly mixed, apparently related to their previous bets.
Fang Shi and Xiong Xingxing didn't bet, they just enjoyed the game relaxedly, not a few words.
Soon, the second game began.
……
In a special VIP room on the second floor of the circular arena, a middle-aged man in his forties watched with interest the fighting match taking place on the center stage, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, and a thick cigar cigarette in his right hand.
"Knock, knock......"
There was a soft knock on the door.
The middle-aged man frowned slightly, and spat out a puff of smoke before slowly spitting out two words, "Come in." ”
An old man in formal clothes stepped back into the room. The old man's temples were slightly white, with some wrinkles on his cheeks, and he walked lightly behind the middle-aged man and said, "Boss, that person appeared again last time." ”
The middle-aged man showed a hint of surprise on his face and said, "That chimpanzee? ”
The old man nodded respectfully and said, "Yes." ”
The middle-aged man's eyes narrowed slightly, revealing a sneer, and said with a little disdain: "Hmph, it's true that the money in our fighting arena is so easy to make, I lost more than two million Star Luo coins last time, I didn't expect it to come again this time, I heard that Gao Gongzi is here again today, if I see him appear, I'm afraid I'll have to gamble again." ”
The old man replied: "Well, Mr. Gao is in the No. 6 VIP room. ”
The middle-aged man was silent for a few breaths, and asked thoughtfully, "How many games was that chimpanzee arranged?" ”
"Scene 9."
"Oh, let Tiger go on, and teach the chimpanzees some more lessons not to cause death."
"Yes, boss."
……
Fight after fight, the only slight surprise was that one of them was a draw, and the two fought for 30 minutes without deciding the winner. Fang Shi carefully watched the fight between the two, although the fight was extremely fierce, but he felt that there seemed to be some tacit understanding between the two, as if it was deliberate. It is still relatively rare for a fighting match to be considered a draw before it is scored for 30 minutes, and it is almost impossible for ordinary people to bet on a draw, so the money from such bets will naturally go to the dealer.
Fang Shi shook his head slightly, secretly wondering in his heart if this fighting match would be controlled by the dealer.
Two hours later, the eighth fight began, with two thin men, both of whom were only about 1.7 meters tall, much shorter than their predecessors.
Xiong Xingxing, who was next to Fang Shi, had already left his seat and entered the backstage to start preparing for the match, he was a martial artist in the ninth fight, and it was his turn to play after the eighth fight. Zhu Chang, Qi Jian and Yongping began to discuss their bets, and they naturally bet on Xiong Xing, just considering how much to bet.
In less than ten minutes, the eighth game was over.
The host walked slowly onto the stage, first said a few words with a simple politeness and a little encouragement, then took a deep breath and shouted softly, "Alright, no more nonsense, the ninth fight will start soon, let's welcome the two fighters into the ring with a round of applause." ”
"Smack, smack, slap......"
The host continued: "On the left is Mr. Xiong Xingxing, who has won four consecutive victories in our arena and is known as Captain Orangutan, and on the right is Mr. Tiger, who is known as the Tiger King, who has won seven consecutive victories. Ha Luha, everyone must be looking forward to this game, Captain Orangutan VS Tiger King, who will win? Let's wait and see. By the way, the odds of this game have changed, the Tiger King is one to two, the orangutan captain is one to five, and the draw is one to ten, hehe, are you excited? If you are excited, hurry up and bet on it, the opportunity is rare! ”
Xiong Xingxing walked out of the ramp on the left first, with dark skin and thick eyebrows and bull's eyes, but he really had the posture of a gorilla.
Tiger slowly walked out of the ramp on the right, his tall figure seemed to be stronger than Xiong Xingxing, his face was a little hideous, and there was a trace of indescribable excitement in his eyes.
Xiong Xingxing frowned slightly, and there was more solemnity on his face, he still had some understanding of this fighting arena, and he had heard of the name of Tiger King Tiger too much, I heard that this person was ruthless, and one of them directly disabled the opponent. (To be continued......)
