Chapter Ninety-Three: Reversal
, the fastest update of the latest chapter of the pet farmer little girl! The cricket on the opposite side has just won a victory, and the momentum is fierce, but their cricket has rested for a long time, its strength is greater, and it lasts longer, and it looks like it is a little inferior at first, but it soon has the upper hand, and even turns defeat into victory!
An Xiu'er looked very happy, and the person opposite took away his cricket with hatred, and then, someone sat opposite An Tiemu, but it was only about half a cup of tea, and the second scene began.
This time it was lucky, the man's cricket was even more tired, and An Temu's cricket won again, but after this victory, it also looked a little tired.
These crickets don't take much time at a time, and there are fewer and fewer crickets in the hall who are still fighting, and An Tiemu's cricket has won five games in a row, and it doesn't even chirp very loudly.
An Xiu'er looked at Steward Wu on the side, "Do you want to give it something to eat and rest?" ”
"Something? Well, it's time for it to eat something. ”
Steward Wu nodded, clapped his hands, and someone took a small porcelain bottle as the face of An Xiu'er and the two, this Steward Wu sprinkled a little powder on the body of this cricket, and instantly the original cricket was excited again.
"What is this?" An Xiu'er asked, but Steward Wu put the things in his sleeve pocket and said, "You don't have to worry about the secret medicine in our arena, and you don't have to ask more." ”
An Xiu'er shut up, and when the other person came over, the cricket in his hand was obviously very excited, and as soon as the two crickets got into the cup, they tore into the fight, this time, An Tiemu's 'boss' was very fierce, and the cricket on the opposite side was torn off half of its wings by it.
The owner of the cricket glared at An Tiemu hatefully, and even didn't want his own crickets, so he got up and left angrily.
The 'Boss' ushered in the next opponent, its opponent looked a little miserable, because they were all tired, when they were caught in the cup, they just looked at each other, but they did not keep moving, Wu Steward saw this, and sprinkled some powder on their bodies.
At this moment, An Xiu'er is still unclear, these powders can make these crickets energetic, and even forget the pain on their bodies, but they obviously have no strength to fight again, but under the stimulation of these powders, they are not afraid of life and death, and they have the attitude of never dying with their opponents.
She is not a saint who pays attention to the equality of all beings, and she doesn't know how many insects she has stepped on when she works on weekdays, but when she sees these insects being treated like this, she is inexplicably a little frightened, what if this arena treats people like this?
An Xiu'er became more and more worried about An Tieshi, and the people in the gladiatorial arena said this, it was really impossible for her not to think nonsense.
Her mind involuntarily jumped out of those terrifying pictures, she was afraid that An Tieshi would be forced to fight until the last moment.
"Steward Wu, is your gladiatorial arena the same for those fighting beasts and gladiators?" She asked, her voice trembling slightly.
"Well, hehe......" Steward Wu smiled, An Xiu'er looked directly into his eyes, and he replied slowly: "Of course not." This medicine doesn't work for people, so why don't you try it? ”
As he spoke, Steward Wu took out the medicine and made it look like he was going to pour it into An Xiu'er's hand, An Xiu'er shook her head again and again, retracted her hand, and only looked at the bucket in front of her.
Compared with An Xiu'er's distraction from time to time, An Tiemu kept staring at the bucket cup in front of him, his eyes were unblinking, very serious, he frowned, watching his crickets step forward bravely again and again, either tearing off a piece from other crickets, or being torn off a piece by other crickets.
In the end, when it was victorious, and when it spread its wings and roared, even a piece of its wings was torn off.
No wonder Steward Wu said that it may not be able to sell for money by then, this is also for a reason, it was better to fail at the beginning, and the more it went to the back, the more cruel it became, and I didn't see that the cricket in front of the 'boss' was already half dead.
An Xiu'er turned to look at the people in the hall, as if there were still four or five tables competing, that is to say, if this 'boss' wanted to win, it would have to fight five or six battles.
She began to look at it intently, after all, it was not easy to defeat so many opponents from so many people at the beginning, as if they were getting closer and closer to the prize of one hundred taels of silver.
"Xiu'er, help me buy a bet, just bet on our cricket victory." An Tiemu took out a tael of silver from his body.
An Xiu'er hesitated, Father An told their brothers and sisters since they were children that they couldn't gamble and can't do these crooked things, but ...... Shouldn't it be considered gambling once? Well, let's just buy it for this cricket, it doesn't matter if you win or lose.
took the money, got up and asked Steward Wu where to buy bets, Steward Wu stretched out his hand to show her the way, An Xiuer trotted to the place where the bets were placed, there were already many people around, she struggled to squeeze into the crowd, but when the steward in charge of the matter looked at her, she suddenly didn't know what to say.
Fortunately, the steward in charge was quite kind, he had the usual smile of a businessman on his face, and he looked very friendly, and he asked gently, "Girl, which kind do you want to buy?" ”
"I want to buy a ninety-nine cricket to win." An Xiu'er whispered, and after thinking about it, in addition to the one or two silver coins given by An Tiemu, she also took out one or two silver coins herself.
"Win?" The steward was stunned, reached out and pointed to a wall behind him, and said, "Girl, there are many ways to buy here. ”
An Xiu'er looked behind him, and on the gambling wall behind him, there were indeed a lot of red papers full of words, she swept over at a glance, in addition to the crickets, there were also cockfights and beasts, An Xiu'er remembered that there were various odds about crickets written in the flower hall before, and there were people in it who specifically remembered the victory and defeat of these crickets.
She carefully looked at the things posted on the wall, and sure enough, it was exactly the same as what was written in the flower hall, and buying No. 99 to become the king was a loss of five, An Xiu'er put the money on the counter without hesitation, and said, "I want to buy No. 99 crickets and become the ultimate king." ”
This steward didn't look like An Xiu'er was a gambler, and seeing her soft and weak appearance, like his little daughter, he reminded him unexpectedly, "Are you sure?" The odds of winning are not very good. ”
"It's confirmed." What An Xiu'er said was categorical.
The steward nodded, wrote something on the paper, and then took a voucher to An Xiu'er, who ran back with this voucher.
"Miss An, have you placed a bet?" Seeing An Xiu'er running back, Steward Wu asked more.
"Bought it." An Xiu'er took the note in her hand and raised it.
"If you want to buy it, you should have bought it earlier, now this competition is almost over, and the odds are low, if it is at the beginning, it is a odds of twenty to one."
Steward Wu looked like you had suffered a loss, and An Xiu'er didn't care, just smiled slightly, and still sat beside An Tiemu and watched the competition in the field.
There are fewer and fewer people in the field who are still fighting with crickets, and more people are gathered around this table to watch the excitement, and I don't know how many more wins, Steward Wu suddenly asked them to change to the big round table in the center, because this can make more people watch.
It was also this time that An Xiuer discovered that the only crickets that were still fighting in this flower hall were the 'boss' and its opponents.
It's just that this situation is really tragic, not to mention that the 'boss' is covered in scars, even the crickets on the opposite side are also extremely miserable, and the two crickets flutter their wings, as if they are going to fall down in the next moment.
Steward Wu lit a somewhat choking incense beside this bucket, and he only smoked incense a little, and the two crickets in the bucket suddenly became excited again.
The people around didn't know if they were affected by this incense, or if they were like this one by one, they looked like they were very excited, and they all screamed to let them bite quickly, this posture made An Xiu'er a little confused, and she couldn't help but sit closer to An Tiemu.
This is the last competition, and she prays in her heart that the 'Boss' will win.
The two crickets in the bucket were fighting, An Xiu'er half-squinted her eyes, afraid that the 'boss' would be torn apart by the opponent in the next moment, but she couldn't help but open her eyes from time to time to glance.
Perhaps it was her prayer that worked, and when she finally opened her eyes, she saw her own cricket spreading its wings and singing.
Although only half of its wings were broken, its body was covered in scars, and even its tentacles were broken, it was still the one who won in the end.
"We won?" An Xiuer said in a low voice.
An Tiemu nodded, with excitement on his face: "Yes, I won." ”
"Congratulations to both of you." Steward Wu smiled and said hello to An Xiu'er, "I didn't expect that your inconspicuous cricket would be able to win in the end." ”
"That's it." An Tiemu nodded, and said, "By the way, this cricket was bought by Guidou Arena now, right?" ”
"Huh?" Steward Wu looked incomprehensible and said, "It's useless for us to buy this cricket, it doesn't look like it will live long." ”
"But you said before, you will buy the victorious cricket for a hundred taels of silver." An Tiemu heard that Steward Wu repented and argued with him.
"Yes, but I also told you, some crickets can get hurt in this arena, and not all of them we will pay for." Steward Wu still looked innocent, and said, "It may be that you heard it before, but you can think about it, who will spend money to buy a cricket that is about to die?" We buy crickets just to fight, it can't fight, why do we buy it? ”
"yes, yes." The people around responded one after another, some of them were people who were doing things in this arena, and some were just onlookers who were just watching the excitement and not thinking too much, thinking that others could sell a cricket for so much money, they couldn't help but feel jealous, and between their words, they naturally unconsciously leaned towards Steward Wu's side.
An Tiemu was speechless, and An Xiu'er didn't know how to refute it, but at this time, Steward Wu also said righteously: "Okay, big brother, we have rules in the arena, don't say that we are bullying, your one hundred taels of silver but it is also a lot of money for our casino, about the money, we will set up a note, as the saying goes, there is no evidence, so let's take out the note, we will recognize it in the arena." ”
Where did An Tiemu think of such a document? Even An Xiu'er didn't think about it so much, she always felt that it was impossible for such a big family to be untrustworthy, but she didn't expect that she overestimated them too much, and she didn't expect that Steward Wu, who was still smiling just now, would turn his face and deny people so quickly and go back on his word.
"Yes, there is no evidence, there is no evidence, your cricket is already a great thing if you win, and you still want to cheat people for another hundred taels of silver? You're thinking that's too beautiful, aren't you? There were even people around who accused An Tiemulai.
Although she knew that her argument would not work, An Xiu'er couldn't help but speak out to defend An Tiemu: "No, that's what Steward Wu told us before." ”
Of course, these people didn't believe it, so An Xiu'er looked at Steward Wu again and said, "Steward Wu, we will cooperate again next time, is it interesting for you to go back on your word like this?" We came so far with you to this arena, is it just to get your 100 wen for the travel fee? ”
"A hundred wen? We all have five taels of silver. Some people around said suspiciously: "Isn't it true that as long as you are willing to participate, you will be given five taels of silver?" ”
"Yes, and when we came, we all used these five taels of silver to buy our own crickets to win, and the odds at that time were one to twenty, isn't it equivalent to one hundred taels." Someone analyzed it in an instant.
When An Xiu'er heard the words of these people, she still didn't understand, the two of them were fooled by this Wu steward and Deng steward.
Sure enough, the people in this arena are really good at doing business, and these people who came with crickets, as soon as they entered the arena, they first bought their own crickets to win, but in fact, there was only one king, and the rest of the people were all worth five taels of silver, which is equivalent to all the water, that is to say, in fact, the people in this arena didn't spend a penny, so they coaxed these people here.
Well, he and his second brother are even more fools, not even five taels of silver, and they didn't think of betting at first, but now that they think about it, they really feel a little regretful, and the two of them missed another opportunity to make a fortune.
"Forget it, second brother, don't talk about it, eat a trench and grow wise." After An Xiu'er finished analyzing, she saw that An Tiemu was still angry and hurried, so she pulled his sleeve.
She was a little worried, and she was really afraid that as soon as his temper came up, he would fight here, there were so many people in this arena, and he would definitely suffer at that time.
