Chapter 303: The Whole City Gambling
Bets, there are conditions.
The condition proposed by Liang Feilian was that the results of the competition between the Immortal and Demon Races would determine the pattern of the Feiyun District in the future. If the demon side wins, then whether it is to give half of the benefits to the demon race, or the demon clan to build another new city, the immortal side will unconditionally agree, but if the immortal side wins, then the current pattern must be maintained.
Seeing that Xin Zhenyu didn't answer immediately, Liang Feilian smiled and said, "What, don't you have confidence in the strength of that Ascendant? If the strength of the Demon Clan's Ascendant is very weak, how much difference is there between it and when there is no Ascendant? In this case, our Immortal Clan will not be willing to make concessions. ”
Xin Zhenyu said: "Heh, I don't dare to say that it is very strong, but it should not be weak." I'm just surprised, just now in the house you said that this matter is very important, you have to ask the Lord Hualin to do it, how can you dare to make the decision so easily when you leave the house? Are you not afraid of the Lord to blame?"
"Come on, Marshal Xin, you and I open the skylight and say something bright, even if Lord Dajun does not agree to cede half of the interests to the Demon Clan, won't you build a new city? Those two plans make the Immortal Clan choose one or the other, but both are beneficial to the Demon Clan and detrimental to the Immortal Clan, it is nothing more than a difference in form. It's better to be fair, you and I have decided this third plan, based on the strength of the Ascendant. If you win, not only will you be able to announce that the Demon Clan in the world has reappeared as an ascender, but you will also be more justified in dividing the interests of the Feiyun District. Liang Feilian said. For the Immortal Clan, this is indeed a good way, not only not to get too stiff with the Demon Clan, but also to set a hurdle for the radicalization of the Demon Clan, so that the Immortal Clan's concession is a step slowdown.
Xin Zhenyu also knew that this was already a big concession from the Immortal Clan, and he didn't expect the Immortal Clan to happily agree to those two plans, after all, it was already a food that had already arrived, which tiger was willing to vomit half more? I have to admit that Liang Feilian's proposal was also a good idea for the Demon Clan, avoiding the two Immortal and Demon Clans from going toe-for-tat because of interests, and also giving the Demon Clan a chance, as long as they win, they could successfully achieve their goals, and if they failed, there would be no loss compared to the current situation. This opportunity, at least in Xin Zhenyu's opinion, has a good chance of winning.
And Liang Feilian was also full of confidence in the victory of his own clan's ascendant, otherwise he would not have proposed so. It only took nine years for Fu Guangxian to fully adapt to the coercion of the Yu Yu Realm in the Triple House, which was rare among the previous ascendants.
"Okay, that's a deal. Xin Zhenyu and Liang Feilian slapped each other.
"Xiao Tianhe...... Just give it a try, and don't let me down. Xin Zhenyu said in his heart.
Xiao Tianhe, who drank the wine in one go, was keenly aware of a hint of abnormality. At the moment when I was looking up to drink just now, out of the corner of my eye, I caught a glimpse of two people standing on the corridor on the top floor diagonally opposite. If you look closely, the entire top floor is dim, and there is no human figure. Xiao Tianhe was very sure that he was not dazzled just now, and the two people seemed to be looking at his side. And when entering Wanxian Tower, Wang Luoliu once said that the top floor had been occupied. Who are those two "fleeting" figures?
Just as Liao Qifeng beckoned Wang Luoliu to come over to add wine, Xiao Tianhe pretended to ask casually: "Shopkeeper Wang, I don't know who took over the top floor?"
Sun Hailiang sighed: "That person actually covered a whole floor, how much money did it take?"
"Guest, they were there before you came, but they didn't light the lights, and no one was allowed to go up and disturb them. Wang Luoliu replied.
Liao Qifeng said: "Speaking of which, I thought it was strange just now, the top floor is not a hall, it is a private room, can he use so many rooms?"
Wang Luoliu lowered his voice: "People don't wrap it up for food and drink...... I think it's probably some kind of confidential matter to be discussed, right?"
Liao Qifeng was stunned for a moment, slapped the table and laughed: "You, don't be mysterious! Who doesn't know that this Wanxian Building is a place for drinking and having fun? Who will come here to discuss confidential matters? Hahaha!"
"Shhhhh——!h
Liao Qifeng took a bite of the dish and said nonchalantly: "It doesn't matter who he is, no matter how powerful he is, he is just an errand runner." ”
Wang Luoliu smiled and said: "Heh, if you dare to say this in front of the enemy city lord, I will have your surname." ”
"The person who came to make a reservation is the Qiu City Lord?" Liao Qifeng was taken aback. The guests who can make the city lord "run errands" must come from a lot of background.
"What did you mean just now, the guest is on the top floor now?" asked Sun Hailiang.
"Exactly. So be careful what you say, and don't blame me for not warning you. Wang Luoliu patted Liao Qifeng, who was still in a daze, and went to greet the guests at other tables.
"Brother Liao, don't care, even if Emperor Lingwei came, he didn't say that he wouldn't let other guests drink! Come on, make another bowl!" Sun Hailiang filled Liao Qifeng again.
"Look, isn't that Team Yang?" Lu Xiaoyan said.
Several people looked at the door of Wanxian Tower, and sure enough, Yang Wankong, the leader of the immortal clan, and his party were at the door of the hall, and Fu Guangxian was also among them.
It was so coincidental that the only empty table in the hall was next to Xiao Tianhe's table.
Seeing that Wang Luoliu led those people to this side, Liao Qifeng took a big sip of the wine bowl.
This time, it was Xiao Tianhe who spoke first: "Brother Fu, we are really destined!"
"Feiyun City is clearly not small, but why do you always meet people you don't want to meet?" Fu Guangxian seemed to be talking to himself, and deliberately sat down with his back to Xiao Tianhe.
Xiao Tianhe shook his head lightly and smiled.
Liao Qifeng said: "Yo, isn't this Team Yang? I thought that within three years, oh no, I would never see you!"
Because of the last big fight in Wanxian Tower, Qiu Wanqing issued a ban on the two clans of immortals and demons not to enter the city for three years. Since both clans have risen ascensions, this leader will soon be transferred. In this way, it is very likely that it will never be seen again.
Because of General Yong, Qiu Wanqing abolished the ban on the demon team. But what about the Immortal Clan's leading team, why can they also appear in the Ten Thousand Immortal Towers in a grand manner?
"Enemy City
The Lord has long lifted the ban on us, hmph, don't think that you are the only ones who have a way. Yang Wankong said coldly.
Sun Hailiang teased: "Do you want to share a table with us this time?"
"It's better to say goodbye, 'a thousand glasses of wine for a confidant, and more than half a sentence for speculation'. We are here today to celebrate Brother Fu's successful passage of the evaluation competition, and we don't have time to mess around with you. Yang Wankong refused. A group of people sat around the table and beckoned Wang Luoliu to serve food and wine.
Liao Qifeng smiled: "That's really a coincidence, we are also here to celebrate Brother Xiao's passing the competition." The implication of his words was: Our demon race's ascendant is not weak.
Wang Luoliu happened to come over with two jars of wine, and answered: "I heard that many people have given up this competition, and some have been injured or even killed. It's a great pleasure that both Ascenders have passed without any problems. Drink as much as you like tonight, the money is mine!"
"Hmph, the demon spirit orb that occupies his teammates, and he still has the face to celebrate here!" Fu Guangxian didn't bother to look at Xiao Tianhe more, he still thought that those girls gave the demon spirit orb to Xiao Tianhe.
How could Xiao Tianhe care? He smiled and said to Liao Qifeng and Sun Hailiang: "Don't pay attention to them, we drink ours." ”
Because the voices of the two groups were not small, the other drinkers on the side also heard it, and everyone talked about it.
"Did you hear it, you only passed the level by occupying your teammates' orbs!" The person who said this was obviously an immortal cultivator.
"Why not, the rules of the contest are that there are no rules!" The people drinking at this table were all demon cultivators.
"If you don't have rules, you can't be unjust! Since you have formed a team, you should divide it evenly!"
"You're stupid! If you divide it evenly, the whole army will be wiped out! If the number is not enough, of course, you should complete one pass first!"
"Anyway, it's still the ascendants on our immortal clan's side who are more powerful, at least they have passed the test by their own skills!"
When Xiao Tianhe heard this, a sip of wine almost sprayed on the table.
I will say that the reform of this contest has failed too much, and whether it can be passed or not depends largely on luck. ”
"Hmph, luck is also part of strength!"
"Fallacy!"
Seeing that the two tables of guests were about to quarrel, Wang Luoliu hurriedly came to play a round: "Okay, okay, there is no real sword competition, where can you distinguish the strength and weakness?
A drinker at the other table chimed in: "That's it, what's there to make a noise? It makes the uncle drink in the mood! Doesn't it mean that there will be a showdown of the ascendants after the contest is over? It's a mule or a horse, and you won't know if you take it out for a walk when the time comes!"
Wang Luoliu suddenly had an idea, he rushed to the second floor, leaned on the fence and shouted to the drinkers in the hall: "Everyone be quiet, and listen to me! Today, Wanxian Lou is fortunate to welcome the ascendants of our Feiyun District Immortal and Demon Clans to gather together, and I heard that both of them have successfully passed this difficult evaluation competition, and many of you here have come to celebrate because of the competition. With everyone's joy, I have decided that all the food and drinks tonight will be free! I hope everyone will put aside their prejudices and not get drunk and go home!"
There was an immediate uproar of joy in the hall, and I don't know who took the lead in applauding, and the applause was mixed with bursts of applause.
The demon team was very stunned. Sun Hailiang was puzzled: "Is this still the same Wang Lao Liu who 'wants to take advantage of death'? I was already startled when he said that he would give us free of charge just now, and I thought it was because of the light of Xiao Tianhe and General Yong! Now that he is giving everyone free of charge, did he drink too much wine today or did he take the wrong medicine?"
Liao Qifeng sneered: "'Dogs can't change to eat'." Wait, there's going to be more!"
"Oh, I'm eating and drinking here, don't mention any '' or ''!" Lu Xiaoyan complained.
When the noise subsided, Wang Luoliu said again: "Everyone, allow me to introduce it first. The one over there, but the first Ascendant of the Demon Race to reappear since he disappeared for more than seven hundred years!"
Everyone's eyes were focused on Xiao Tianhe, and he was uncomfortable. "What is the shopkeeper doing here?" Xiao Tianhe frowned, "If you continue like this, you won't even be able to drink!"
Wang Luoliu continued: "And the one here is the Ascendant of the Immortal Clan. Do you know how many years he's been getting used to in the triple house?"
"Nine years!" replied someone who knew in the dark.
"Yes, it's nine years! It's only nine years! This is a hundred years, no, it's a genius that is rare for a thousand years or ten thousand years!" Wang Luoliu's excited voice resounded throughout the Ten Thousand Immortal Tower. At this moment, he was so excited that he forgot that he couldn't disturb the "big guys" at the top - although the "big guys" had already quietly left, Wang Luoliu didn't know it.
In the same situation, Fu Guangxian and Xiao Tianhe's reactions were completely different, he seemed to enjoy everyone's attention to him, and his face was proud.
"Speaking of which, I'm afraid everyone has a question in their hearts, which of the two races is stronger?" Wang Luoliu once again brought up this topic that almost caused a quarrel.
"I haven't tried it, who knows?"
"Luckily, after the tournament, there will be a Ascendant Tournament, and we will see when the time comes. Now, let's all come to gamble, how about it? Wanxian Lou is gambling, and I, Wang Luoliu, are here to sit in the village for everyone!"
The atmosphere in the hall immediately boiled over, and it seemed that everyone was gearing up to take a gamble.
Liao Qifeng pouted and said: "Look, 'the country is easy to change, but the nature is difficult to change', I know that he can't change his dog's ...... Uh......" Seeing that Lu Xiaoyan was staring at him, he had to swallow back the word "" that came to his mouth.
Xiao Tianhe put down his chopsticks and sighed: "Let's go, I really can't stay." ”
"Yes, a good drink, and it was mixed again. Sun Hailiang didn't want to stay here anymore.
The greedy Lu Xiaoyan looked at the table full of wine and delicacies, and was reluctant: "You really want to go...... Can I take the food and drinks with me?"
"Pack your head, and then be greedy to see if I don't bag your head!" Liao Qifeng reprimanded angrily, "Go, help me bet, today's money."
If you don't bring enough, you will tell Wang Lao Liu to keep accounts, bet on my fifty-year-old fortune, and bet on Xiao Tianhe's victory!"
Several people were taken aback and looked at him together.
"Brother Liao, you ......" Xiao Tianhe didn't know what to say.
"Brother Xiao, don't care. I'm not a gambler, and I'm not stupid, everyone knows that gambling goes to the dealer to make the most money. I'm just expressing my support for you a little bit in this way!" Liao Qifeng explained.
"You've staked fifty years of money right now, but it's 'slightly' scary enough!" Xiao Tianhe said with a smile.
Sun Hailiang said: "Brother Xiao, your appearance can be regarded as saving us, otherwise we would have to spend many years here, what is the value of fifty years of Yulu? Xiaoyan, give me fifty years of Yulu to Brother Xiao!"
Xiao Tianhe hurriedly stopped: "No need to go." I know your kindness and appreciate it, but it really doesn't have to be. ”
"Brother Xiao, gambling is not all losers, we believe you will win. Listening to what Team Liao said, I also plan to bet on fifty years of money, and I will make a lot of money at that time, and we can still rely on your blessing!" Lu Xiaoyan wiped his oily lips with his sleeve, "You go first, I'll come when I place a bet." ”
After Lu Xiaoyan finished speaking, he ran to the counter, Xiao Tianhe was about to chase after him, but he was stopped by Liao Qifeng and Sun Hailiang together, he had to say: "Alas, you three! If I lose, it will be too late for you to regret it!"
"Hehe, if you are willing to gamble and lose, what is there to regret?" Liao Qifeng snorted, "Besides, you will definitely win, what is the point of staying in the triple house for nine years, it can only prove that his body is relatively 'hard'." The 'stone' is still relatively hard, isn't it still lost to the 'cloth'! Okay, okay, let's go!"
"You should guess the boxing......" Xiao Tianhe was surrounded by the two of them and walked out of Wanxian Tower.
Fu Guangxian watched Xiao Tianhe leave from a distance, and smiled secretly in his heart: "The more people come to gamble, the better, hmph, I will definitely make you lose face at that time to avenge the previous humiliation!"
The development of things was just as Fu Guangxian expected, and the news of Wanxian Lou's opening of a gambling game spread quickly, and many people came to bet on it. Wanxian Lou ushered in the busiest night since it was built, until the early morning of the next day, there were still people coming from all directions, and the queue went around several times in the hall of Wanxian Tower, until it was outside the building, and then lined up around Wanxian Lou twice. The shopkeeper Wang Luoliu was responsible for collecting the money, and there were two guys next to him, one was responsible for recording and the other was responsible for sorting out and storing the gambling funds, and the three of them were sweating profusely.
It's really:
Guests from all directions,
Gather together in Wanxian Building.
Not for the sake of the smell of wine,
But because of the gambling thick.
Immortal Demon Ascension,
Reputation is at risk,
Try your skills in martial arts
See who comes out on top.
The news of Wanxianlou's gambling quickly reached Xin Zhenyu's ears. When his subordinates reported to him, he happened to be talking to General Yong about a bet with Liang Feilian.
"Look, from top to bottom, Feiyun City is betting on this battle of the Ascendants. I'm thinking about whether I'm going to make a few bets for a while, hehe. General Yong made a joke.
Xin Zhenyu also smiled: "Who has let our demon clan not have an ascendant for so long." Xiao Tianhe's appearance itself was a matter of concern, not to mention the Immortal Clan's Ascendant...... Well, I heard that he is very strong. The battle between two people in this way naturally attracts attention. ”
"The strength is not bad? It depends on the special approval of Marshal Liang to pass the competition? In my opinion, Xiao Tianhe is better than him. General Yong disagreed.
Xin Zhenyu asked his subordinates with great interest: "Do you know that there are more people on the side of Wanxian Lou who wins?"
The subordinate hesitated for a moment, and then replied, "Don't dare to deceive the marshal." Most of them are on the side of the Immortal Clan. I heard that the Immortal Clan's Ascended Ascendant had only been accustomed to the Triple House for nine years, so people were inclined to choose him. ”
"Mireya...... That doesn't mean the strength of actual combat!" General Yong shook his head again and again, seeming a little disappointed, "Even the demon cultivators are the majority of them choosing him?"
"Indeed...... The demon cultivators supported Xiao Tianhe in the minority, and the immortal cultivators all supported the immortal ascendant. "Subordinate Dao.
"Those demon cultivators who chose Fu Guangxian really don't even have a sense of honor and self-esteem as a demon...... General Yong complained to Xin Zhenyu, "Even if you bet a little less money on Xiao Tianhe, if you lose, you will lose, at least you have backbone." When those guys of the Immortal Clan saw this situation, they still didn't know how to laugh at our Demon Clan in their hearts!"
The subordinate said, "General, what you said is really right...... Anyone who bets on Xiao Tianhe to win, basically only bet a little money, I looked through the record, only to see that the three of them bet a large amount. ”
"Oh, who is it?" asked General Yong.
"It's the three people who led the team. The record book reads:
'Liao Qifeng, Xiao Tianhesheng, Fifty Years of Yulu (50,000 Pearls)
Sun Hailiang, Xiao Tianhesheng, 50 years of Yulu (48,000 beads)
Lu Xiaoyan Xiao Tianhe won fifty years of Yu Lu (40,000 pearls)'. The subordinate recalled.
"Well done!" Marshal Xin complimented, and suddenly he asked his subordinate again, "And how much have you bet?"
The subordinate smiled embarrassedly: "Sure enough, I can't hide it from the marshal." I also bet on Xiao Tianhe to win, and bet two hundred beads......"
"What? two hundred beads, you are the one who sent you to ask for food!" General Yong rebuked dissatisfiedly. It is also interesting to say, although there is no "begging for food" in the Yuyu world, but I don't know that it is the person who flew up from the lower realm who brought the words and phrases of the Great Red Realm and spread them widely, so "sending the food" has also become a common saying in the Yuyu world.
After being reprimanded by General Yong, the subordinates' expressions were extremely embarrassed.
"Go, bet on Xiao Tianhe for me, 300,000 beads!" General Yong said, "I'll be the biggest supporter of Xiao Tianhe's bet!"
"Yes! The general is really ...... Generous and heroic!" the subordinate complimented, turned and ran away.
"It's not you who is the biggest supporter of the bet!" Xin Zhenyu smiled at General Yong, "You know, I'm betting on the future of the demon clan in Feiyun District!"
