"Do you know that on the seventh day of the first lunar month next month, Long Tian, the second young master of the Long family, is going to have a duel with Li Wen of the royal family?"

"Of course I know, now this matter has been full of turmoil in the city, and it is difficult to know it. Passerby B replied.

"Since you know about this, you must know that this time it is Li Wen who challenges this Long Tian. It should also be known that this time it was Li Wen who challenged Long Tian, a high-level swordsman, with a senior swordsman, and there was a difference of three levels. Passerby A said.

"Well, I know. I heard that this Li Wen is the fifth ranked position in the Royal Academy, and this Long Tian is not ranked at all. This is a duel with a huge disparity in strength, I don't know why this second young master of the Long family would agree to this duel. He could have refused, but he couldn't guess why he agreed. Passerby B answered.

"I can't figure this out, according to Long Tian's habits in the past, he shouldn't have agreed to this duel, there have been many people looking for him to duel before, but as long as his strength is a little higher than him, he will refuse. This time, it was obviously three levels higher, and he would actually agree. Could it be that he already has the same strength as Li Wen?" passerby A asked rhetorically, then shook his head and said, "This is impossible. ”

"Why can't it be? Don't you know that Long Tian went to rob the execution ground, and it is said that everyone saw him at that time a very strange skill, which could send out a few golden rays of light to knock the executioner's axe off. And the way he entered the arena at that time, he flew inside completely in mid-air. According to the above two points, some people speculate that this Long Tian had an adventure during the time he disappeared, learned some special skills, and his strength far exceeded his current title. Passerby B told him what he knew.

"I know about it, but you probably don't know one thing yet. Passerby A deliberately sold a pass, stopped and waited for Passerby B to ask him.

"What's the matter?" Passerby B didn't pay attention to Passerby A's expression, and just wanted to know what was going on.

Passerby A was very satisfied with Passerby B's attitude and said, "You know that someone is a banker in this duel, so accept the bet." ”

"Well, there's something strange about this every duel. ”

"Any idea what their odds were the other day?"

"I know that if you bet on Li Wensheng, the odds are only 10 to 1, but if you bet on Long Tiansheng, the odds are 17 to 1. This is the lowest and highest odds ever, but even so, there are still many more people who buy Li Wen than Long Tian, and I think the odds have changed now. ”

"You're right, the odds have changed again. The odds after yesterday's end, Li asked twenty to one, and Long Tian's odds were as high as one to thirty. I think the odds will be higher in a few days, and it will be unprecedented. ”

"One to thirty, why is there such a odds, no matter how bad Long Tian's strength is, he is also a high-level swordsman, there should be such odds against a high-level swordsman, can those people be sure that he will lose?"

"This can also be said in the same way, because yesterday someone bet on Li Wensheng 100,000 gold coins. Passerby A said.

"100,000 gold coins? Oh my God, we can't earn it in a lifetime, no, I should say we can't earn it in ten lifetimes. I don't know who has so much money and will take 100,000 gold coins out to gamble. Passerby B sighed, and then his tone changed, "However, even if someone bets 100,000 gold coins on Li Wensheng, there will be no such odds." ”

"If someone else were to detain it, it wouldn't have happened. However, this time it was Long Xing's son Long Fei who bet on it, so there would be such odds. Passerby A said.

"Long Xing, that righteous son of Marshal Long, isn't that their Long family themselves thinking that Long Tian will lose?" asked passer-by in surprise.

"Yes, it's that Longxing. Yes, their Long family thinks that Long Tian will lose, but to be precise, Long Tian himself thinks he will lose. At that time, when Long Fei bet on Li Wensheng, the person who accepted the bet asked tentatively, asked Long Fei why he had so many gold coins, and asked him why he bet on Li Wensheng instead of Long Tian. Passerby Jia paused, and then continued, "He accidentally said that this was the money that Long Tian wanted, and this money was also asked by Long Tian to buy it. Knowing that he had said the wrong thing, he left immediately. At that time, people who saw this situation immediately paid money to bet on Li Wensheng, so there were such odds. ”

"I see. Passerby B said with a look of vain realization.

"What do you understand?" asked Passerby A, curiously.

"I understand why Long Tian agreed to this duel. It turned out that he was trying to make a sum of money, and as long as he said that he would admit defeat and fight a few times at most, he would earn it. ”

"Yes, that's what I thought. Many people also have the same idea, and they are sure that Long Tian agreed this time in order to make this money. He will definitely lose this duel. Passerby A said.

"Then what are we waiting for, why don't we go and bet on Li Wensheng. Although the odds are a little lower, it is a sure win. After passer-by B finished speaking, he wanted to pull passer-by A to go.

Passerby A avoided the hand grabbed by Passerby B and said, "Don't worry, anyway, the real odds will not be decided until the last day." Let's talk about this Li now, do you know why he went back to fight Long Tian, who is three levels lower than him?"

"Some people say that it is because he likes Long Tian Khan, because Long Tian spends all day drinking outside, so he wants to duel with him in a fit of anger, kill Long Tianhou, and then commit suicide. ”

"Phew...... You've heard all this nonsense from somewhere. Tell you, according to the students present at the time, it was because of Miss Xueqing of the Bai family, and Li Wen was because Miss Xueqing was forced by Long Tian to be by her side, and she was desperate to challenge Long Tian in order to protect her beloved. Passerby A said proudly, proud that he had the news.

"So that's the case, I thought Li Wen would have that kind of interest, but fortunately not, otherwise I would be in danger!" passerby B breathed a sigh of relief.

"You...... Don't worry, even if he likes men, he will never take a fancy to you. Passerby A looked at Passerby B's appearance and sweated.

"What do you mean, with my handsome and dashing appearance, he will not be interested. Passerby B said loudly.

“......”

"You'd better go and place a bet!" passerby A was no longer interested in going on.

"By the way, I'm going to make a bet, I'm going to bet all my possessions on it. After passer-by B finished speaking, he immediately turned around and ran away, and after running a few steps, he found that passer-by A had not moved. He stopped and asked, "Aren't you going?" ”

"I've already done it. Passerby A waved his hand.

"You've already been down?? Then you just told me not to be in a hurry. ”

"It's just that I'm not in a hurry!"

"I rely on ......"

Conversations like this can be found in every corner of the entire Imperial City. The difference is that some people scolded Long Tian for being shameless and buying himself to lose. It was also said that Li Wen was despicable, saying that he did not have the dignity of a swordsman, and even proposed a duel to a person who was three levels lower than him. However, all of them have one thing in common, that is, they all bet on Li Wensheng. Even those who say that Ling Feng is shameless and Li Wen is despicable are all the same bets.

At this time, Long Fei was at Long's house, surrounded by a group of people and questioned, none of these people were offended by him, so he could only listen to the questions quietly, and then answer the questions honestly. The thing he bet on yesterday is already known all over the city, not to mention the Long family, which is at the heart of the problem.

"Long Fei, what the hell are you doing, how do you bet on Long Tian to lose, and if you return the bet so much, where did your money come from?" Long Xing asked seriously.

"Didn't I say this, the money was given by Long Tian, and the bet was made by Long Tian. Long Fei regretted taking this matter, when Ling Feng asked him for help in the military camp, it seemed to be very funny to listen to what Ling Feng said, so he agreed without thinking about it.

"Nonsense, Long Tian has been in Black Stone Mountain for the past few days, and he hasn't left there even yet. "Long Xing knew that in the past ten days, Ling Feng had not come out of the Black Stone Mountain.

"When he was in the barracks ten days ago, he told me to do it, and the money belonged to the Bai family. Long Tian had already told the Bai family before, and I went to ask Senior Bai yesterday to get it. Long Fei explained.

"Don't talk about this, why did you say that Long Tian asked you to bet, according to your style, you won't be so speechless. Did you do it on purpose?" asked Long Jue, looking at Long Fei.

"Yes, I did it on purpose. After Long Fei finished speaking, when he just wanted to say the reason, he found that a person was already by his side, and then knocked his head with his hand, Long Fei subconsciously dodged, but he didn't expect this hand to be faster than him.

"Bang" Long Fei was knocked hard, only to hear, "You muddy boy, don't learn well, learn this." Even if you know that Long Tian will lose, you can't gamble on him. Now you are not only gambling with him, but also revealing his strength to others. ”

"What, Dad, you have to wait for me to finish my words before you do it, I haven't finished my words now, and I was beaten by you in vain. Long Fei said aggrievedly.

"If I am not satisfied, you will give me 'training' this month, and I will personally guide me. Long Xing said lightly.

No, you personally guide. Doesn't that mean I'm going to have a month of hell, I don't want it! Fortunately, I have a good reason this time, otherwise I'll have to shed my skin if I don't die. Long Fei hurriedly said: "I did it on purpose, but this is what Long Tian asked me to do." He asked me to deliberately spread the news that he had bought himself and lost, and the more people who knew about it, the better. ”

"Why is Xiao Tian like this?" Long Jue asked Ao Wuxue beside him.

"How do I know what he's thinking, he's been so weird when he comes back this time. Ao Wuxue saw Long Jue asking her, and said angrily.

"Why don't we go to Blackstone Mountain to have a look, first, to see what Xiaotian is doing there, and second, to ask him what he is going to do. If he really wants to make money by deliberately admitting defeat, I will beat him to death and prevent him from damaging the reputation of our Long family. Long Jue said in a deep voice.

"Use your brain to think about whether Long Tian buys himself to win and earn a little more, or buys himself to lose to win a little more. Long Jianxin on the side sneered.

"This ...... The odds of him buying his own win are much higher, and there should be no need to admit defeat. In this way, he will not lose a lot. But why would he bet on himself to win?" Long Jue thought that if Ling Feng bet on himself to win, it would be a loss of ten or ten, and a bet on Li Wen to win would only be ten to one, and Ling Feng's strength was a steady win, so as long as anyone who could calculate would buy a high odds.

Long Xing heard the conversation between Long Jianxin's father and son, as if Ling Feng could win if he wanted to, so he asked, "Why do you think that Long Tian has made more money by betting on himself, is it possible that Long Tian has the ability to defeat Li Wen?"

"Yes, absolutely. But it is said that it is 100% able to defeat Li Wen. Long Jue said affirmatively.

"One hundred percent??" Long Xing repeated.

"I haven't told you this yet, you don't know yet! Long Tian, this kid, his strength can compete with me, to be precise, he is better than me. Long Jue said proudly, being surpassed by his son will not be jealous, but proud.

"If that's really the case, then Long Tian can indeed easily defeat Li Wen. Long Xing knew that Long would never lie to him, especially in front of Long Jianxin.

"Long Fei, did Long Tian ask you to do anything else?" Long Jianxin asked Long Fei when he saw that Long Jue had almost explained.

Long Fei was still surprised by Ling Feng's strength, and when he heard Long Jianxin asking him, he hurriedly said, "Well, he still wants me to bet on him on the last day to win 100,000 gold coins within one minute." ”

"What?

"Isn't this Long Tian a little too proud, defeating a junior sword saint in a minute may not even be able to do it even a great sword saint. Long Jue, I see if I can get the money on Long Fei's body back, don't bet on it. Long Xing said.

"How can this work, Dad, I promised Long Tian to help him bet, you can't be untrustworthy. Long Fei immediately objected.

"Long Xing, it's okay. Just let him keep betting!" said Long Kenshin.

"Dad, do you think Long Tian will win in a minute?" asked Long Jue.

Long Jianxin pondered for a while and said, "No, this is just maybe. However, Long Tian will not be untargeted, he must have a purpose in doing so. Besides, he has already paid 100,000 gold coins, do you want him to plan to destroy it in our hands? ”

"Also, I believe that Xiaotian must have his reasons for doing this. Besides, with his last battle, every opponent was stronger than Li Wen, not weaker, and he didn't solve it quickly. In that case, Dad, are we also going to bet on Xiaotian to win in one minute. Long Jue thought of those who assassinated the princess, a few of them were killed by Ling Feng in seconds, and it didn't take a minute at all, not even ten seconds.

"Bet, of course. But we just need to bet on him to win, and we don't have to bet on how long it takes to win. Long Jianxin left with this sentence and left.

————————————

Here I want to say that the betting method of the duel, in addition to betting on who wins, there is also a bet on who can win in how much time, which is divided into one minute, three minutes, ten minutes, and half an hour. The less time, the higher the odds.
