Chapter 52: The Storm and Storm (II)
The capital is like a liquor that has been brewing for more than two months, and suddenly the pot is unveiled, and the streets are crowded with people, rubbing shoulders, looking at the black pressure and no edge can be seen, and even foreign people come here to watch this duel that has been expected for a long time.
"The son of the prime minister of the Fengyun Empire is going to have a life-and-death battle with the child of Li Wuregret, the twelfth general of the Fengyun Empire, here?"
"Then Li Jianzhou is still a waste?"
"The odds have now reached the point of forty to one?!"
Whether it's a babbling child or an old man, everyone has their eyes on this battle without suspense...
The huge venue was already full, Luo Tian and the others couldn't cry or laugh after sitting down, they spent 4,000 gold coins to get this remote position in the back, but in front of it, there were a few vacant seats, obviously waiting for some big man to appear...
Even from this position, they could hear the people around them talking to each other, and the most talked about was this duel.
"Li Jianzhou has not yet entered the martial arts, and he has been dropped out of the academy...", a young man dressed more luxuriously, I don't know which merchant's young master it is.
"Really?" a young boy beside him suddenly asked.
"That's natural, I used to be taught by the same mentor with him, but now I've entered the Western Courtyard to cultivate. The boy puffed up his chest proudly and smiled.
"Can you tell us about the Great General without regrets..."Ai Guo suddenly asked curiously, a pair of small eyes full of sparkling light, they have heard the most along the way, it is the waste Li Jianzhou and the genius Li Wuregret!
The young man was stunned for a moment, and explained to everyone proudly: "In the troubled times thirty years ago, the Chixiao Empire's cavalry army stepped into the Fengyun Empire, and they were invincible everywhere they went. ”
"The empire is already in danger, but at this time, the great general Li Wuregret was ordered to accept the canonization of the twelfth general of the empire on the spot, and then led a group of remnants of the army to defeat the people of the Chixiao Empire..."
Ai Guo's eyes were full of admiration when he heard it, and even the others were slightly interested.
Seeing everyone's fiery expressions, the young man nodded quite proudly, coughed twice, rubbed his throat and continued to stretch his head and said, "That year, General Wuregret was only thirty years old!"
A teenager explained the story of this generation of Tianjiao, and the rest of the teenagers approached intentionally or unintentionally, forming a group, their eyes full of strange light.
......
"Quiet. ”
Just when everyone was still silent in the vivid story of the young man's mouth, and was excited, an old voice suddenly sounded, although this voice was very calm, but it made everyone feel deafening, as if someone was bursting in your ear.
In an instant, all the noise stopped abruptly, and under the illumination of various brilliant lights, an ordinary white-haired old man appeared in the spacious life and death platform in front of him, the badge engraved with four gray lines on his chest was shining, this was a fourth-level spirit array master!
When the eyes of hundreds of thousands of people were firmly fixed on the white-haired old man, the white-haired old man nodded slightly, as if as they thought, and said lightly: "Yes, the old man is the president of the Four Seas Chamber of Commerce!"
There was an uproar at the scene, could the duel between Li Jianzhou and Gongliang Ceze be supervised by this person? !
"Being able to get the president to come forward is enough to see the importance of this duel. ”
......
In the eager eyes of everyone, the white-haired old man nodded with a smile: "As you guessed, the old man is also the enforcer of this duel!"
After getting his affirmation, the crowd that was still full of doubts just now suddenly began to crowd, everyone began to coax with red necks, and suddenly all kinds of voices in the venue were intertwined, which seemed extremely noisy.
The Four Seas Chamber of Commerce is the most mysterious and powerful force in the Fengyun Empire, and even the president personally presided over the situation, which shows that this duel is not as simple as it seems.
"Quiet!"
After saying a word again, the field that was still boiling just now suddenly fell silent, the white-haired old man nodded, stroked his beard, and continued: "This duel is divided into three bets, the first bet has ended, now make the second bet, wait until the two sides of the war arrive and make the third bet again!"
Seeing everyone's eager looks, the white-haired old man said flatly: "As the guests wish, now you can directly start this second round of life and death bets!"
The atmosphere in the venue was ignited again, and groups of flowery maids with brushes and long banners walked out from behind the scenes with smiles like flowers, and were divided into two teams, left and right, and came to the crowd from the steps.
The banner is made of a special material, and the surface is like a ripple of water with a peculiar halo, which is directly isolated from the middle position, and is divided into two parts: black and white!
The white-haired old man's voice also sounded just right at this moment: " All participants only need to write down the name and amount of their bets in the banner of life and death according to the color, and then enter their soul power in it, black represents life, death represents white, our Four Seas Chamber of Commerce adheres to a fair and just choice, we can afford to lose, we can afford to win, we can eat, if someone wants to cheat, we will use special means to find your position from the soul power you enter, and then things will not be so easy to deal with!"
"So, the old man is here to advise, how much can you afford to gamble a lot of money!"
This sentence was undoubtedly a slap in the face to these people, and many people calmed down from the heat.
Yuwen Zeze!
I don't know who shouted, the calm atmosphere was lifted again, and many people wrote the name of Yuwen Zeze in the raw banner without the slightest hesitation.
But there are many shrewd people among them, then Li Jianzhou is the child of General Li Wuregret, and now the duel has provoked the president of the Chamber of Commerce to come forward, how can things be so simple, maybe he is just pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger?
With the idea that if you want to lose, you will lose everything, and if you want to earn, you will make a lot of money, a very small number of people have written Li Jianzhou's name after consideration, and added a small amount of money.
Suddenly, the action of a group of mysterious people suddenly surprised the scene, they sat in the middle, and the object and amount of bets were even more embarrassing.
"Li Jianzhou, one million!"
"Li Jianzhou, three million!"
"Li Jianzhou, eight million!"
......
This couldn't help but make the people around look a little dumbfounded, looking at the smiling and obscene looks of these people, they were extremely disdainful in their hearts, and they couldn't help but curse an idiot.
The face of the people of the Black Crow Mercenary Group was blue and white for a while, and he was still a relatively rough middle-aged man who couldn't bear it, patted his chest, pointed around and scolded: "Damn, Lao Tzu is rich, what's the matter?!"
Similarly, the people of the Dragon Shadow Mercenary Group also started to bet at this moment, but they were betting on Gongliang Ceze, and only Wei Liang gambled on Li Jianzhou's 400,000 gold coins in the banner.
"Wei Liang, what are you betting on Li Jianzhou, you don't really think that this Li Jianzhou is Brother Jianzhou!" Luo Tian stared at Wei Liang with shocked eyes, and the others also cast puzzled looks.
"Intuition. Wei Liang smiled flatly.
......
At this time, the huge venue was already overcrowded, so casinos had already been opened outside the Chamber of Commerce, and even those civilians who had no martial arts talent participated in it with copper coins and silver coins, and for a while, the capital of the Fengyun Empire seemed to have become a huge gambling city!
After a mysterious person wearing a ghostly mask walked into the hall of the Chamber of Commerce, he quietly showed the Supreme Ring to the person in charge of the gambling game, and said in a calm and hoarse voice: "I bet on Li Jianzhou's victory, 30 million gold coins!"
Li Jianzhou's previous spirit gathering formation has earned more than 40 million gold coins in just three months, returning the seven million gold that he owes the Four Seas Chamber of Commerce in advance, and then according to the commission of seventy-three points, he has some of his own original accumulation, so he can still take out this savings.
When the two persons in charge of the gambling game saw the Supreme Ring, one was responsible for continuing to open the gambling game, and the other quickly took Li Jianzhou to meet a gray-robed elder, the elder swept his eyes over Li Jianzhou, and said with a slight curiosity: "Don't you think about it, adults?!"
"Not considered. Li Jianzhou shook his head and smiled, he was originally the protagonist of today's life and death battle, if it weren't for the fact that this cold sword and black knife were still useful to him for the time being, it is estimated that he would have to use them as collateral!
After going through some formalities, the gold coins displayed in Li Jianzhou's Supreme Ring were instantly cleared.
After Li Jianzhou finished the bet, Murong Zhuo behind him coughed dryly, and slightly embarrassedly took out his platinum-level magic ring and said: "Bet on Li Jianzhou to win, 30 million gold coins!"
"Dadutong!"
Li Jianzhou was startled at first, then smiled indifferently and said, "You are so rich, if I die, don't blame me." ”
Murong Zhuo patted his head vigorously from behind, and said coldly: "Gongliang Ceze is probably already here, I heard that the generals have already arrived in this duel, so don't leave quickly!"
Li Jianzhou covered the back of his head in pain, was speechless for a while, and said, "I'll go to a place first." ”
Led by a guide, Li Jianzhou soon came to a bustling gate.
......
"Knock knock!"
"Come in. The tingling sound sounded to the bones, and Li Jianzhou gently pushed the door open.
A plump and well-fitting slender figure, fair jade legs, and delicate skin like mutton fat.
A seductive red-robed woman was sitting on a red chair with round and slender jade legs, lazily supporting her snow-white chin, and in front of her desk, a pile of thick sealed documents was placed.
Beside the woman, there was also a young man, this young man was handsome, his eyebrows were like knives, at the age of sixteen or seventeen, there was a faint imperial aura, and his strength had reached the Eight Heavenly Martial Realm!
Li Jianzhou exhaled a few breaths in a row, and the restless evil fire in his body was suddenly extinguished, he took a step forward, and said with a smile: "Sister Cardinal, don't come unharmed." ”
"Brother Jianzhou. ”
The woman raised her head, her delicate goose egg face looked charming and moving, her red lips were slightly open, and her two phoenix eyes like clear water looked at Li Jianzhou with a smile, with indescribable clarity.
"Sister Cardinal, this is the carving method of the Spirit Gathering Array, as long as you give a second-level Spirit Array Master enlightenment, the failure rate is some, but it can still be barely completed, if it is Master Mo Ran that day, you can easily write down this formation with a face!"
Li Jianzhou presented a talisman and put it on the table, but the cardinal picked it up and tore it gently...
"Sister Cardinal, you..."
"Brother Jianzhou is really keeping his promise, sister, I believe that you can win that Gongliang Zeze, so there is no need for this Spirit Gathering Array to stay!" The cardinal smiled slightly, and its elastic little mouth flashed with a different kind of luster, this seemingly ordinary behavior suddenly made Li Jianzhou have a lot of good feelings for this fox spirit.
"Sister, is this guy going to fight that waste duel with Gongliang Ceze?" The young man behind the cardinal pointed at Li Jianzhou and said arrogantly.
"Gongliang Ceze?waste!"
Li Jianzhou raised his eyes and looked at the young man who was full of sharp energy, the young man nodded indifferently at him, and he looked at the cardinal again, his eyes full of puzzlement.
Cardinal nodded slightly, and then smiled at Li Jianzhou: "This is my own brother, Mo Chengyou!"
Mo Chengyou, the number one in the Fengyun Empire?
The second-ranked Li Xiangxiang seems to only have the peak of the Ninefold True Martial Realm now, this Mo Chengyou has the strength of the Eightfold Heavenly Martial Realm, how could such a peerless genius appear in the Fengyun Empire?!
"Mo Ran, Mo Chengyou, Mo Cardinal..."
Li Jianzhou felt that he had vaguely guessed something.
