Chapter 11 There is no gambling and no loss
"Knock! knock!"
With the sound of three dull drums, the lively trial ground suddenly fell silent, and everyone focused their eyes on the main stage of the trial ground.
I saw a thin old man in a green robe slowly walking onto the main stage, it was Zhao Hongyi, one of the three major envoys of the Zhao family.
The three major envoys of the Zhao family are Zhao Honghao, Zhao Honghan, and Zhao Hongyi, the commander of the execution, and their status in the family is second only to the patriarch and the Council of Elders. Regular clan reviews like this within the family are usually presided over by Zhao Hongyi, the commander of the order, and today is no exception.
Zhao Hongyi was thin, but his eyes were bright, he looked around, and then looked at the family members who participated in this selection test in the field, and said slowly: "Today's clan evaluation is the last time for the family this year, I believe you have already prepared, the rules are clear to everyone, I will not repeat it, now I announce that today's family evaluation has officially begun." ”
With Zhao Hongyi's order, the clansmen who participated in the clan evaluation in the trial ground automatically stood in front of the trial stones of their respective levels.
There were already ten huge trial stones on the ground of the huge Thousand Forging Stone in the field, corresponding to the first to ten realms of the quenching stage.
Lin Le stood in front of the Fourth Realm's Trial Stone, next to him were Lin Ke who tested the Fifth Realm and Lin Fei who tested the Sixth Realm, while the two brothers Lin Feng and Lin Ye were in front of the First Realm Trial Stone in the distance.
"Look, that kid from the Lin family is also here. ”
"What's so strange about this, he wants to enter the four realms before the age of fifteen, and today's test is the last one, and if he misses this time, he will never have a chance again. ”
"Huh, don't you know? That kid was injured some time ago, and it is said that he has been completely abolished, and the last time they tested it privately, he didn't even have a realm. ”
"Ahh
"I didn't see it with my own eyes, but it should be true, at that time, in addition to the people of their Lin family, there were also people from other families in the middle court who saw it, and the news came from them. ”
"If it's true, then it's a pity, the family hasn't had a Four Realms genius under the age of fifteen for several years. ”
"What's the use of going out? In the end, it is the Ten Realms that determine the strength of the family, even if he enters the Four Realms now, who can guarantee that he will definitely be able to enter the Ten Realms in the future. A disciple surnamed Zhao from an inner courtyard next to him interjected disdainfully.
The few clansmen who spoke looked at each other and fell silent.
Although the other party's tone was very contemptuous, what he said was the truth, if he couldn't enter the Ten Realms, let alone just four realms, even if it was the Nine Realms of Quenching, it was equal to zero.
The reason why the Four Realms under the age of fifteen are regarded as geniuses is because they have a greater chance of entering the Ten Realms than ordinary people, but it is only a chance, it does not mean that they will definitely be able to enter the Ten Realms, and there are many people in history who are fourteen-year-old geniuses who have stopped in front of the Ten Realms.
"It seems that the only one who can be promoted from the middle court to the inner court this time is the Hou family. ”
"That's not for sure, I heard that Hou Xu only entered the Seven Realms two days ago, and the realm has not yet stabilized, whether their Hou family can enter the inner courtyard depends on his level performance in this test. ”
"Oops!" suddenly exclaimed a child from the inner courtyard.
"What's wrong?"
"I just bet on Zhao Shao, betting that both the Hou family and the Lin family can enter the inner courtyard, if you just said, wouldn't I lose?"
His words immediately alerted the others, and several guys let out an "ah" at the same time, and then pulled their legs and ran to the place where they bet.
After a while, they all walked back dejectedly.
"How's that?" someone asked with concern.
"Damn, Zhao Yuhan didn't change, he said that the commander had already stopped betting when he announced the start of the clan evaluation. ”
"Haha, then you just wait to lose money. ”
Just as the guys who had placed the wrong bet were beating their chests, the test on the proving ground had already begun.
"Duan Mingze, the third test, yellow! Three realms of strength!"
With a shout from the test officer, a sturdy guy left the Fourth Realm Trial Stone dejectedly.
"Next, Xiao He of the Intermediate Court. ”
A young man in a dark blue power suit beside Lin Le took a deep breath, walked quickly to the trial stone, stretched out his palm, and slowly resisted the hole in the trial stone.
"Let's go!"
As soon as the tester's voice fell, Xiao He's body shook slightly, and the trial stone suddenly released a light, red...orange...yellow...green...
When the Trial Stone turned green, the light gradually dimmed, and finally slowly disappeared.
"Xiao He, the first test, green! strength four realms!"
"Yay!" Xiao He, the young man in blue, suddenly jumped up happily.
"Two more times, do you want to try it again?" A smile tugged at the corner of the tester's mouth, who had a serious face.
Xiao He bowed, shook his head and said, "Don't try, this is already my best result." With that, he happily left the Trial Stone.
Lin Le watched from the sidelines, although the people in the fourth trial stone were not the most, but there were quite a few, as the youngest one, it would not be his turn until the last, so he didn't have anything to do for a while.
Turning his head to look, the cultivation ground at this time was already a mess, the clansmen waiting for the test were all surrounding their respective trial stones, some were taking deep breaths to adjust their nervous mood, some were sitting cross-legged and making the last effort, of course, more were chatting with a smile on the side, they could maintain such a relaxed attitude, they were either completely sure, or they belonged to the "soy sauce", and they knew that there would be no hope.
The successes and failures of the individual clan tests also affected the surrounding stands, which were constantly filled with sighs of regret, fierce applause, and even some bold girls chanting the names of their sweethearts, cheering him on.
"Next one, Midcourt Link. ”
Just as Lin Le was looking around, a familiar name came from the Five Realms Trial Stone Test Point next to him, and Lin Le hurriedly separated everyone and ran over.
I saw that Link was walking out of the crowd at this time and walking towards the trial stone in the field.
"Second brother, come on!" Lego Lin shouted.
Link turned his head and smiled at him, his smile filled with confidence.
"Come on, hmph, at his level, no matter how hard he works, it's not that I belittle him, if you wait for another half a year, maybe he still has a glimmer of hope to impact the Five Realms." A small man beside Lin Le pouted and said.
Lin Le glanced at him and didn't say anything.
The little man had obviously noticed Lin Le a long time ago, and rolled his eyes, "What do you see, boy, I know that you are the abolished genius of the Lin family, what's the matter?"
Lin Le still ignored him, this time he didn't even look at him, his eyes were straight ahead, looking at Link who had already walked in front of the trial stone.
Not only did the little man not stop talking, but instead came to Lin Le's side, "Boy, if you don't speak, I'll acquiesce to you, why don't we make a bet?"
"Not interested. ”
"There's no interest in cultivating, as long as you win, I'll give you a talisman, how about it? This bet is sincere enough, right?" The little man's single eyelid was about to squint.
Lin Le's heart moved, although he could draw talismans now, he had no spiritual power, and he was trying to get some Dao talismans drawn by Taoist masters.
"What do you want to bet on?"
"Bet that neither you nor your second brother will be able to advance to the ranks, and if you are both promoted, even if I lose. ”
"Bet on the two of us at the same time?" Lin Le was a little unsure of what the hell the other party was doing, "Then what if we only have one person to advance?"
"Even if it's a draw, we don't lose or win. ”
Lin Le raised his eyebrows, "If you lose, you give me a talisman, if I lose, I don't have a talisman for you." ”
"It's okay, if you lose, you help me wash my socks for a month. ”
Hearing the words of the little man, even a blind person can see that this gambling is by no means as simple as it seems.
Lin Le knows very well that the talisman here is not like the useless amulet on the earth, take the talisman that the little man said, the talisman on the earth is actually a yellow note, which can be said to be useless, it is completely a psychological comfort, but the talisman here is different, especially for ordinary people, a talisman can even save lives at critical times.
If washing socks for a month can be exchanged for an amulet, I'm afraid that everyone in this world is willing to wash them except for cultivators.
"Okay!" Lin Le didn't want to think about it, no matter what the guy in front of him had, he would win this gamble.
As soon as he heard Lin Le agree, the little man suddenly laughed happily, he pulled the two of them from his side casually, and said, "You also heard the bet agreement between me and Lin Le's little brother just now, you come to be a witness, so that the bet contract is established." ”
"Wait. Lin Le suddenly interrupted him, "You know me, but I don't know you, if you lose, where will I go to find you then?"
Before the little man could speak, the two people next to him who were brought in as witnesses shouted out, "You don't even know him, so you dare to bet with him?"
"Even if you haven't seen him, you should have heard his name, right? He is Zhao Yubai of the inner courtyard, and he is the one who is nicknamed 'gambling without losing'. ”
Lin Le blinked and carefully looked at the little man in front of him.
He has really heard of "Zhao Yubai" and "There is a gamble and no loss", of course, to be precise, it should be his predecessor who has heard it. Zhao Yubai is very famous in the inner courtyard of the Zhao family, what makes him famous is not because of how high his cultivation is, but because of his great gambling nature, I heard that when he was five years old, he made a bet with someone that his hair was a double number, for this reason, he shaved off his hair on the spot, and dragged the man for two days and two nights, so that the other party finally had to admit defeat.
In addition to his gambling nature, he is also very special in one point, that is, no matter whether he loses or wins in the end of gambling, he has never suffered a loss.
Now in the Zhao family, there are very few people who are willing to bet with him.
Lin Le didn't expect that this clan review would actually meet him.
Since he knew that the other party was Zhao Yubai, Lin Le was relieved, it was rumored that Zhao Yubai's gambling was very good, and there should be no such thing as not paying the debt, as for the rumors that the other party never suffered losses, Lin Le didn't care, his goal was just that talisman.
