Chapter 4 New Rules

Seeing Shen Fei's generous hand, the gambler handed over the things he was busy with to the person next to him, and responded: "I'm sorry guest, VIP seats need to be booked in advance, and I'm afraid you can't go over now." Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"

"Who do you make an appointment with?"

"It's an hour early, on the first floor of the Royal Casino, you can make an appointment there. ”

"Casino Royale?"

"The largest casino in Jinling is well-known and easy to find. ”

"So the arena and the casino are the same boss behind the scenes?"

"Childe, seeing that you are well dressed, you should have heard some rumors before you came, why don't you know anything about Jinling City. ”

"We also came here in search of the reputation of Jinling City, and we haven't done our homework before, so we make you laugh. ”

"I'm just a runaway, and I don't dare to laugh at you for my low status. I am talking to you like this to remind you that it is a very dangerous thing to come to Jinling without doing enough homework, especially for a noble son like you?"

"Oh, why do you say that?" Seeing that the gambling head was active and talkative, Shen Fei stuffed some broken silver into the past, and the gambling head saw that he was generous, but he also treated him differently, and immediately said: "The cake of Jinling City is too big for one person to swallow, and it is jointly managed by the four major families." These four major families have only one hand in Jinling City, and more than 90% of the industry is directly or indirectly controlled by them. Even the legendary immortals and demons who came to Jinling had to pay three respects to them, and even supreme beings such as temples had to drive into the wasteland ten kilometers away from the city. Jinling is an existence led and dominated by the giants, all the rules, all the order is made by the four major families, and anyone who violates the rules will be left in the deep alleys where no one knows, or be thrown into the sea to feed the sharks. ”

"Are they so powerful?" Hearing the words of the gambling head, Shen Fei was not only frightened, but found it interesting, "What are the origins of these four major families?"

"Speaking of the four major families, that's amazing, and each of them is not simple. It is said that the patriarch of the Murong clan is the maternal uncle of the Yellow Emperor today, and is the hardest of the four major families, in charge of the large and small brothels in the city; the Nangong clan and the Yuwen clan are both local gentry, in charge of the distribution of salt and some casinos; as for the Linghu clan, its current patriarch Linghu Xuanzhou is not only the most legendary figure in the city, but also the boss of the villain. It is said that this person started from scratch, relying on a pair of iron fists to fight the world, fighting all over the streets and alleys of Jinling, and dominating all gangs in the underworld. He built a fighting arena with his own hands and opened a royal casino, which once became a thorn in the side of the other three clans. In the first few years of the rise of Linghu Hanging Zhou, there was no less war between the other three major families and him, but I didn't expect the rising star Linghu Hanging Boat and the underworld forces he represented, with a deep heritage, the stronger the more they fought, after several arduous battles, the two sides suffered heavy losses, and finally concluded a peace treaty, Yuwen, Murong, Nangong, Linghu, the four surnames are on an equal footing, jointly ruling Jinling, making a fortune together, everyone is happy. So far, the outside world has the title of the four major families.

The rules of Jinling City, the division of the territory are all formulated by the four families together, the county government yamen is in this terrain is the same as the non-existent, and the maintenance of order is done by the people sent by the four major families, so as long as you arrive in Jinling, you must honestly abide by the rules set by our boss, if you dare to disobey, even if it is just an unintentional mistake, you will not be forgiven. The punishment is not a prison sentence, nor will it be a distribution of troops, and there is only one price, and that is death! Childe, do you know now why I just said that it is very dangerous for you to walk in the city without knowing the details!"

"No wonder when I came here, it seemed to be strange everywhere, it turned out to be like this. Shen Fei nodded, "Then dare to ask Brother Tai, what rules do you need to follow if you want to walk safely in the city?" ”

"Speaking of which, just two sentences. ”

"Two sentences?"

"It's very simple, just two sentences. The gambler smiled, and then said: "These two sentences are, don't do what you shouldn't do, and don't do what you should do." ”

"Don't do what you shouldn't do, don't do what you should do?" Shen Fei also smiled, this was the first time he felt that his IQ was not enough, "I also asked Brother Taiwei to give me some guidance." ”

"It's very simple, I'll understand it when I say it. The gambling head smiled deeply, "The so-called not doing what should be done means that it is not allowed to do business without the permission of the four major families, and it is not allowed to do it without paying land tax; it is not allowed to do righteous and courageous deeds; and it is not allowed to do it when entering the temple to make offerings to the Buddha." The so-called "not doing what should not be done" refers to the fact that it is not allowed to bully others, kill people and sell goods, rob and steal, gamble, rob and steal, rob and steal, rob other people's wives, and abduct and sell people. ”

"It's all mess. Nalan Ruoxue's head was big when she heard it.

Shen Fei nodded and said, "Oh, so that's the case." "The gambling head said a lot, it looks chaotic, but in fact, the idea is clear, and it should be deliberately summarized and promoted. With Shen Fei's cleverness, he quickly ate it thoroughly.

To put it bluntly, it is to do things in Jinling City, whether you are in business or performing arts, you need to pay money to the four major families, as long as you pay it, your behavior will be allowed, if you don't pay, it is illegal, and you will be expelled. At the same time, it is not allowed to steal and rob, kill people and steal goods, and even gamble in Jinling City. Only the four great families in the city have the power to enforce the law and legally punish those who commit these atrocities.

In other words, neither good nor bad people are allowed to exist in Jinling City, everyone can only follow the rules set by the four major families and do things silently, if they violate it, then the result is likely to be death.

It's really interesting, it feels like everything in the city is monopolized by the four major families, which creates huge profit margins, which are fully accepted by the four families. Is this the truth behind the prosperity? Although it is only a side of the gambling, Shen Fei does not feel that it is completely untrustworthy, because as the saying goes, "A glimpse of the whole picture is known!"

"The most prosperous to Jinling, interesting, really interesting. Listening to the gambling head's words, Shen Fei smiled knowingly, "I know the rules here, but the question just now has not been fully explained, are there any other requirements for the VIP seat tickets in addition to making an appointment in advance?"

"The seats in the VIP seats are reserved on a first-come, first-served basis, but I'll be honest with you here, brother. There are only a few people who can sit in the VIP seat, and if you come from out of town, it is useless to make an appointment even if you go early, and you will never be able to enter the VIP seat closest to the ring. In fact, the seats in the back row are also good, although the seats in that row also need to be reserved, but as long as there is enough silver, you can enter, I think you might as well choose to sit there. ”

"Got it, thank you. ”

"I should thank you for the money. ”

"Oh, yes, there's another question. Shen Fei remembered something again and asked, "I want to ask, "What time does our fighting arena usually close, and what fighting skills are going on now...... Oh, and also, how do I become a brawler?"

"Well, the arena is divided into one to five rings, and the performance content of each ring is different every day, so you can only see it with your own eyes. As for what time it closes, the arena is dedicated to relaxation and entertainment, and the crystal lamps hanging throughout the stadium do not lose their brightness throughout the night. The fighting activities will last from the afternoon to the evening, and the son can rest assured that Jinling is a city that never sleeps, and you can definitely have fun here. As for how to become a fighting artist, I advise you not to think about it, you have to sign a life and death contract when you enter the fighting arena, you have such a noble status, how cost-effective it is to lose your life in it for a momentary interest. ”

"You're right, thank you. ”

"You're welcome. Seeing that Shen Fei finally stopped asking questions, the gambling head turned around and left, humming a little song in his mouth, looking quite happy, after all, the silver that Shen Fei handed over was more than his monthly salary. ”

After he walked away, Nalan Ruoxue took Shen Fei's arm and said, "Brother Shen Fei, it's so noisy here, let's go back, okay." ”

"Ruoxue, it's finally here, let's go up and sit for a while. Shen Fei persuaded her.

Ruoxue pouted and said coquettishly: "Brother Shen Fei, what is so fun in such a cruel place, let's go quickly, go back and rest, rest." As he spoke, he yawned and rested his head on Shen Fei's left shoulder, looking like he was about to fall asleep.

Shen Fei forcibly pushed her awake and said, "Don't sleep, accompany me to take a look, before going down the mountain, my master told me that no matter what, we should come to the fighting arena of Jinling City to have a look, since we have come to Jinling, we must see with our own eyes what we say." ”

"Oh, I hate it! The real person in charge is really, what is there to see in such a bloody and violent place. ”

"Ruoxue, you don't know, although the arena is located in the human world, there are often masters of the Immortal Dao or the Demon Sect who come to fight, and Yan Tiantian and Chu Xie have fought here for a long time back then. ”

"Yan Tianting?Chu Xie?" mentioning Yan Tiantian was like revealing the scars on Ruoxue's body, making her sleepy for a moment. also recalled from this, it seems that Yan Tiantian did mention it when he fought against Chu Fang, and he had fought with Chu Tianya's youngest son, Chu Xie, in the arena of the world. That's what I said. "Although her memory is good, her brain is not good at longitudinal thinking, and she needs to be mentioned by people around her to recall, unlike Shen Fei, everything she has heard or seen, she will definitely leave an impression in her mind, and once she finds a corresponding one, she will be able to make reasonable associations and inferences immediately.

"Speaking of which, it's really worth taking a look. Ruoxue nodded very seriously, judging the same as the two of them just now. This thief's embarrassed appearance couldn't help but amuse Shen Fei, "You stupid girl, you're so stupid and cute." Let's go, since the VIP seats can't go, and the audience seats are too crowded, let's just fly to the sky. ”

"Good idea. Ruoxue laughed, "Brother Shen Fei is still smart and knows how to improvise." ”

"You girl. Suddenly, a large number of colorful petals poured out, forming a thick cloud, carrying Shen Fei and Nalan Ruoxue into the sky together. The night was deep, and the petal clouds were no different from ordinary clouds, and did not attract the attention of the crazy audience. Shen Fei and Nalan Ruoxue flew into the air together, looking down, and the fierce battles going on in the five rings were vividly visible.

Ring No. 1 is a fight between a tiger and a lion. Tigers and lions live alone or in groups, in forests and grasslands, and the question of who is more powerful has always been in people's minds. The arena caught the tiger and the lion at the same time today, so that the audience could bet on it to settle the doubts in their hearts. But seeing that the tiger's fleshy palms were thick, jumping up and down to suppress the lion steadily, it still looked more powerful with tattoos. The biggest difference between a lion and a tiger is that a male lion has a mane and a very fierce mouth, and if it bites it, it will bite to death, but the movement is slightly sluggish, while the tiger jumps up and down, most of the time attacks with its claws, and only after knocking the opponent down, will it really go down. On the scene, no matter what, it is the tiger that has the upper hand.

Ring No. 2 is a fight between man and lion. Speaking of which, lions are really unlucky, not only to fight with their own kind, but also with humans, anyway, there is no time for purity.

The human who fights the lion is a samurai wearing heavy armor, a steel helmet, and a sword in his hand, and even through the armor, he can see the burly shape and muscular lines of his body. There is no immortal overflow on his body, which shows that he is an ordinary person, an incomparably strong ordinary person. The fight between humans and lions is thrilling, full of dangers, and they have been repeatedly forced into a dead end, if it were not for the heavy armor covering the whole body, I am afraid that they would have died under the lion's mouth.

Ring No. 3 was a battle between two groups of soldiers, one group of men wearing heavy armor, holding a round shield in their left hand and a sword in their right hand, and one group of soldiers like barbarians, wearing animal skins, bone knives in their hands, and horned hats.

Ring No. 4 is a battle between humans and demons, a young man who looks ordinary, standing opposite a big monster with a long sword in his hand, at first glance his figure is completely disproportionate, but in fact, he is not as immobile as a mountain, and he is not afraid at all.

Ring five, ring five is...... Pure Soul Monk!

Shen Fei rubbed his eyes, thinking that he was dazzled, he actually saw the Pure Spirit Monk standing in the middle of the No. 5 ring, and slowly appeared from the end of his sight, his opponent was actually the one he had seen during the day, and the cultivator with a thick foundation was directly opposite their room.
