Chapter 123: A Game Within a Game (Big Chapter)
……
The young man in cloth looked at Xu Mu, and his smile was almost to the back of his head.
"It's worthy of the big fish I fancie, just the first round of testing the water took out 100,000 taels, and when you completely believe us, the bet will not start with a million!"
When the young man in cloth thought of that scene, he drooled excitedly, because if this order was completed, Xu Mu, a big fish, might be able to eat him for three lifetimes!
Xu Mu stared at the young man with a smile, and he could probably guess what the latter was thinking.
After placing a bet in the money village on the side, the cloth-clothed young man also returned to normal, looked at the battle platform with a smile and said:
"This distinguished guest, just look at it, our analysis is very accurate, this game. It must have been the Void that won. ”
"Both of them are trust, and whoever you say wins wins." Xu Mu said secretly in his heart, and at the same time, he set his eyes on the competition platform with great interest.
He wants to see what these two will look like when they fight, and whether their acting skills are clumsy.
Boom!
On the battle platform, Xin Zhi's sleeve robe waved, sprinkling the tyrannical snowflakes and cold wind in the sky, to freeze the void into ice, the latter sat cross-legged, his hands propped up a bright golden light, chanting the Buddha name scriptures, layers of golden body sigils spread out like a wave, dissolving all the snowflakes, turning into a bright golden rain falling in the sky.
The two come and go, and under a fierce confrontation, the abilities of both sides are drastically depleted, and it is difficult to separate.
Until finally, the empty god stood up, he took a step forward, and there seemed to be a Buddha in the void who stepped out of his foot and stepped heavily on Xin Zhi's heart, and the heart-protecting ice mirror shattered in response, and blood overflowed from the corners of his mouth.
"You won." Xin Zhi knelt on the ground and said this sentence with a painful face, and then was subdued from the ring by several followers and disappeared into the crowd.
"Okay!"
In the crowd, there were constant shouts and cheers, they were all people who bet on the victory of the Void Hell, and of course, there were large lamentations and regrets, they suppressed Xin Zhi, but lost all their money.
"Oh, Brother Dao, if only I listened to you, I knew that this void was so strong, I wouldn't have suppressed that Xinzhi, I lost hundreds of thousands of taels of gold in vain, and I can't regret it!"
Someone sighed while looking in the direction of Xu Mu and said, the young man who sold the prediction of victory and defeat waved his hand nonchalantly when he heard this, and then said disdainfully:
"Of course, sir, I have predicted four rounds in a row, and I haven't deviated once, and those who believe in me have already made a lot of money!"
The man nodded, and said with a look of remorse: "Yes, I should believe you, otherwise I would have earned back my capital a long time ago, and I could even earn more." ”
"I'm willing to spend 10,000 taels of gold to predict, please tell me who the winner of the next game is, okay?"
This man spoke loudly, and immediately attracted the attention of many people.
Seeing this, the cloth-clothed young man waved his hand disdainfully and said:
"Impossible, you have already rejected me twice, I am free, I will never give the same person a chance to refuse me a third time!"
"And what are you saying so loudly, now everyone knows about me, let the dealer do!"
"It's really not good, I still want to gamble again, I'm willing to pay!" The man stepped forward, took out a golden ticket with a denomination of 100,000 taels of gold, and pleaded with the young man in the cloth robe, but the latter directly waved his hand and refused.
"It's impossible, if you don't leave, I'll call someone!"
"I'm leaving...... Walk. The man shook his head, remorseful, and left.
When the people around saw this scene, they immediately became interested in this cloth-clothed young man.
Because before that, the latter did take the initiative to ask them to predict, but when they heard that the cost would cost 10,000 taels, they all refused.
I thought it was a liar, but it seems that the result of the latter's prediction is really accurate, and he can win four rounds in a row, so it seems that there is something to gain.
As a result, many people immediately gathered around the cloth-clothed young man with the attitude of understanding.
The latter glanced at Xu Mu and told him to come back in a while, and then walked over to the pile of people with a high spirit, and said in a loud voice: "Let's go back to the people behind, I can only help predict ten people at most!" ”
"After all, I still have to think about the dealer, you all bought my results, all winning, what if the dealer goes bankrupt, when I am hunted down again, I can't do it, go back!"
As he said this, his accomplices immediately separated the rest of the crowd, leaving only ten people in front of him.
And among the ten people, five or six people have been actively asking, and some even knelt directly on the ground, begging him to help him turn the tables, and Xu Mu, who was looking at the distance, shook his head again and again.
"I dare say that at least half of those ten people are to."
"There are actually less than ten people he really wants to pit, and we are one of them."
Hearing this, Qi Qi looked at Xu Mu with some surprise: "You know that he is a liar, and you dare to bet with him?" ”
Xu Mu smiled slightly: "I'm short of money, aren't I." ”
"And I didn't say that we should always bet with him, we just need to bet on the opposite outcome of him before he is going to close the market and run away, and we can win a lot of money."
"Humans, they're cunning." Qi Qi opened his sharp claws and said fiercely.
He didn't ask Xu Mu how to guess when the latter was going to close, and he didn't understand this, but Qi Qi knew that Xu Mu had always been very talented in pitting people, and that person was targeted by him, or stared at him, and his luck couldn't be more unlucky.
Xu Mu took out the 250,000 taels of gold tickets he had won in the previous round, and then turned his head to look at the battle platform.
At this time, on the battle platform, two unfamiliar faces have already walked on.
One of them was a cultivator wearing a dark purple robe and horse coat and looked like a child, and the other was a sturdy man with a meteor hammer in his hand.
The cloth-clothed young man finally finished fooling the gang, and then trotted all the way to Xu Mu, panting and laughing and said:
"I'm sorry to keep you waiting, do you still want to predict, if so, please pay 10,000 taels of gold as a reward."
"Hmm." Xu Mu nodded and directly handed him a golden ticket of 100,000 taels.
The latter accepted it with a smile, and while looking for money, he opened his mouth and introduced:
"The one on the left is dressed in a purple horse coat, his name is Jing Ji, he is the son of the seventeenth master of the Jing family among the hundred clans, his ability is called Zihai, he can suck the souls of others to grow, his strength is terrifying, and he is a strong contender for the top five thousand seats in the Ten Thousand Clans Alliance this time."
"The man on the right, his name is Shi Sheng, although the Shi family is not in the Bai Clan, but he has always been eyeing the seat of the Bai Clan, and his strength is very strong, Shi Sheng is also a genius in their family lineage, his ability is related to the rock and earth, he cultivates the flesh, and his combat power is very strong, and he has killed the big demon of the third stage head-on."
"The difference in strength between these two people is not big, but because of the different tactics, one cultivates the physical body, and the other cultivates the soul, so many people think that Jing Ji will easily suck the dry stone saint, and because of this, the dealer has changed the rules and directly sits in the banker to lose seven or seven times the odds."
When Xu Mu heard this, his eyebrows raised slightly, there were such high odds, could it be that they were going to close and run away?
The cloth-clothed young man looked at Xu Mu and continued with a strong smile:
"Actually, what everyone doesn't know is that Shi Sheng, as the Tianjiao of the Shi family, has already secretly passed the 'Ancestral Dragon Trial' of his Shi family's ancestral land."
"Those who pass the trial will be blessed by the ancestral dragon with the divine soul, and obtain the ability to communicate with the divine soul, that is to say, Shi Sheng seems to be a physical body cultivator, but at the same time, he is also very strong in the realm of the divine soul, and Jing Ji has no wins or losses against him."
"So in this game, just press Jing Ji to win, I guarantee that you will earn a lot of money!"
Xu Mu looked at the young man in front of him, and a faint smile rose on the corner of his mouth:
"You're well-informed."
"Then, as you said, I'll bet more and put all the family property on it."
"All the property!?" When the young man in cloth heard this, his eyes widened instantly, and his breathing began to become short.
Just now, his accomplice told him that Xu Mu had consumed nearly four million taels of gold in the interior of this street.
He believes that Xu Mu is the fattest big fish he has ever seen in his life, and he may be able to earn a wealth that he will not be able to squander in ten lifetimes and return to the mountains, so he will personally serve Xu Mu, the purpose is to ensure that nothing goes wrong!
"Come on, brother son of a rich family, let me see your family property, how much money you have, will it be tens of millions?!" The cloth-clothed young man rubbed his hands together and stared at Xu Mu with greedy eyes.
"These 240,000 are all my belongings now, and if I can win, it will be able to turn over to 1.68 million, which is really a huge amount of money."
Xu Mu said, took out all the golden tickets, and then walked to the gambling house to bet.
But in the next second, he was stopped by the young cloth-clothed young man, only to see that he forcibly squeezed out a smile, and then asked stiffly: "Second ...... 240,000, you mean you're going to bet 240,000? ”
Xu Mu nodded: "That's right." ”
The young man in cloth was incredulous: "This is all your net worth, that's all?" ”
Xu Mu smiled slightly: "What, too little?" ”
The man came back to his senses and quickly waved his hand: "What do you think, it has nothing to do with me." ”
"It's just a guest officer, you have to think about it, such disparity in odds is rare, if you don't win a little more money, then you won't have such a good chance next time!"
Xu Mu arched his hand, sighed and said, "Alas, Brother Dao, I also want to bet more, but these 240,000 yuan is indeed my entire net worth." ”
"In other words, 100,000 taels of gold is already my entire net worth, but because of you, it will become 240,000 just now." Xu Mu said with a smile.
"Yes...... But I saw you buying a lot of things in it just now, not to mention millions of gold, spending a lot of money! The young man in cloth thought about this, but he didn't say it, but asked in a different way.
"Yes...... But I see that you obviously look like a noble person, how can your net worth only be so much, do you not trust me? ”
Xu Mu shook his head and said seriously: "No, I trust you very much." ”
"It's just that because I bought too many things for others just now, my family has been emptied, and that's all I have left."
When the cloth-clothed young man heard this, his face was like ashes, but he still did not give up and said:
"In this case, you can also mortgage the items, you can mortgage the things you bought before, and you can earn seven times the assets back when the time comes!"
Xu Mu looked at him and couldn't help laughing: "What's wrong with you, why are you suddenly so curious about my bet?" ”
"I didn't ...... It's okay. The cloth-clothed young man turned his head unnaturally, and his heart was extremely sad.
He cooperated with the dealer, opened such a high multiplier, did enough drama, and let go of many people, just for Xu Mu, a big fish, but now he found that this is just the most inconspicuous small fish.
This 100,000 taels of gold is not even enough for an actor's salary!
"There's no way, even if there are no big fish, but the odds are here, it's not okay to do it!" The cloth-clothed young man gritted his teeth, transmitted the voice to the inside line of a certain crowd, and said, "Act according to the plan, let that Shi Sheng, lose naturally!" ”
Xu Mu saw that the other party was no longer pestering him, so he slowly walked to the gambling house with the golden ticket.
The cloth-clothed young man didn't follow him anymore, but just glared at Xu Mu's back with some itchy teeth, and then turned his head to look at the battle platform.
Xu Mu walked to the gambling house and smiled at the guy in front of him: "Hello, I want to bet." ”
The young man nodded and asked, "Well, you were introduced by Xiaoyaofeng, right, how much to bet?" ”
"240,000 golden tickets." Xu Mu said and handed the money to the latter.
The latter picked up the money and was about to throw it on Shi Sheng's side, but at this moment, his wrist was suddenly grabbed by Xu Mu.
The man was stunned and looked up at Xu Mu.
Xu Mu looked at him, slowly moved his wrist to Jing Ji's side, and said with a smile, "You are mistaken. ”
"I'm betting, 240,000, Jing Jisheng."
…… The thick pile of golden tickets was placed on the empty table on the other side.
The young man from the gambling house stared at Xu Mu, and asked quietly, "Are you sure you are not wrong?" ”
Xu Mu nodded and smiled: "Sure." ”
The young man glanced at Xu Mu deeply, and then was about to speak, sending a message to the free wind, but in an instant, he felt a sharp pain in his wrist, as if he was caught in iron tongs, and his bones were about to break.
"If you dare to speak, I will abolish you first, and then make public the matter of your use of trust money." Xu Mu looked at him with a smile and said.
The young man from the gambling village stared at Xu Mu, his eyes were red, and he squeezed out a few words from between his teeth: "You are here to smash the field!" ”
"No, I'm here to make money." Xu Mu smiled and let go of his hand, "There are enough people on the other side, and I only bet 240,000, in compromise, you won't lose money in the end, but you can still earn some." ”
"But if you have to break the net with me, then I can only make your good deeds public, and then you will not only not be able to get the money, but your life will have to be put on hold."
When the young man from the gambling village heard this, he gritted his teeth and said: "If we lose more than one million yuan to you, the rest will not be enough for the brothers!" ”
Xu Mu smiled, his eyes suddenly became cold, and the aura of the Death Avenue on his body rushed out: "That's your business." ”
"If you don't fight me, I won't take the initiative to come over to find trouble, but the matter has come to this point, I have decided to eat the money today, do you want to break the fortune or die, choose for yourself!"
After Xu Mu finished speaking, the young man in the gambling village turned blue and white for a while, and after a long time, he finally slowly fell into decay like a deflated balloon.
Obviously, he didn't plan to spread the word and change the tide of the battle again.
And even if the situation of the battle is changed temporarily, the situation for them will be even worse now, because there are many people who have also bet on Shi Sheng, change the winner, and lose more, it is better to maintain the status quo, at least you can still make some money, it is a matter of earning more and earning less.
"I regret it, add another hundred thousand taels of silver." At this time, Xu Mu suddenly remembered something, took out a hundred thousand taels of silver tickets, and handed it to the man.
"Good!" The man glared at Xu Mu angrily, the latter's behavior was no different from robbing money!
Xu Mu smiled, holding Qiqi in his arms, but did not speak.
And at this time, on the battle platform, Jing Ji and Shi Sheng of the Jing family have already fought together, the strength of the two is really very strong, the purple sea behind Jing Ji is surging, and the surging spiritual energy turns into a giant beast towards Shi Sheng.
Airplanes!
The stone saint did not show weakness, waved his hand to the ground, and immediately summoned a stone statue that was a hundred feet high and covered with curse marks, and plunged into the sea, the stone hit the water, splashing the waves for hundreds of miles, and it was like a giant whale swimming freely.
Jing Ji's complexion changed, increasing the devouring strength of the purple sea, but he couldn't help this stone statue, because the latter had nothing to do with the divine soul, and was not under the command of the stone saint, he could only fight because he had a rune engraved on his body, and everything was the most primitive instinct.
As for Shi Sheng himself, he jumped on top of the stone statue, pulled two stone dragons from the ground and smashed them towards Jing Ji in the purple sea, like two big whips.
Jing Ji had no way to avoid it, so he could only bite his fingers and sacrifice his essence blood, and then his body surface also turned purple, instantly blending into the purple sea, Shi Sheng's blow missed, and he was about to carry out the second blow, but Jing Ji had already followed the waves to his back, and cast the devouring method on the back of his head.
"Die!" Jing Ji roared loudly, opening his bloody mouth, wanting to wantonly devour the soul of the stone saint.
At this time, the latter turned his head, there was no way to avoid it, and it seemed that he was about to lose, but he didn't expect that when Jing Ji's purple sea swallowed up, Shi Sheng's body actually erupted with a dragon-like roar, and all the divine soul energy devoured by Jing Ji was shocked out.
Jing Ji himself, his face instantly turned pale, he vomited blood upside down, and landed on the edge of the battle platform, his face full of disbelief.
Those who had won from the free wind and crushed the stone saint saw this, and they all stomped their feet excitedly and laughed.
This battle situation is basically the same as predicted, so they can already seem to see the picture of their seven times the gambling money.
Xu Mu also squinted at the battle platform, his expression calm, because he believed that there would definitely be a turnaround.
So sure enough, just as Shi Sheng smiled and walked towards Jing Ji, ready to end the game, the purple sea that had already disappeared in the space suddenly became violent again.
The purple sea of divine souls was monstrous, converging into the shape of a giant, and a hot red light liquid appeared on the surface, which seemed to be very hot, and the moment it was touched, it dissolved the sigils on the body of the giant stone statue.
Without the control of the rune, the stone statue sculpture also fell directly on the battle platform, and the stone saint also fell from the sky, and the whole person was soaked in the purple sea.
His face was frightened, and the divine dragon's breath on his body kept roaring, but the purple sea was too violent and blazing, he could hold on for a moment, but he couldn't withstand the consumption.
So after a while, Shi Sheng finally couldn't stand it, he seemed to be extremely painful, and most of the power of his divine soul was gnawed, and he hurriedly begged for mercy and shouted:
"I throw in the towel!"
Bang!
Jing Ji put away the purple sea ability, sneered, and left the battle platform.
"Don't speak, give me the money." Xu Mu turned around with a smile and stretched out his hand to say.
"Count you ruthless!" The young gambling man gritted his teeth, took out more than a million gold and silver and handed it to Xu Mu, Xu Mu put it into the space ring, and then turned around to leave here.
"I didn't expect this result, I didn't expect that Jing Ji would have such a trick, but there are unforeseen circumstances, how can I always win this bet!"
Xiaoyaofeng nervously explained to everyone, and then at the same time, he turned his head and glanced at Xu Mu.
Xu Mu greeted him with a smile and seemed very happy.
Xiaoyaofeng looked stunned, he glanced at Xu Mu who was smiling, and then looked at the pile of gamblers in front of him, as if they were going to eat him, and it was a little messy for a while.
He couldn't help but wonder.
"This man...... How can you lose money and be as happy as you are when you win? ”
……
