Chapter 90 Taking a Risky Is a Gambler, The Elephant-Swallowing Snake is Not Satisfied (Ask for Collection!Ask for Recommendation!)
"Is this little brother Liang Xiang's eldest grandson who was once lost? After being worthy of the Xiangmen, he is really rich and chic, and he will become a great weapon in the future......" Yang Min's eyes are sharp and deep, but the smile on his face makes people feel like a spring breeze, and it is difficult for people to feel repulsed.
Liang Zhen hurriedly said a few humble words, and his expression was completely acceptable.
Xiao Chuan smiled very reluctantly, thinking: "With my appearance, young master, you can only praise me like this......"
As he spoke, a new competition had begun on the field.
Liang Zhen and Yang Min commented while watching, laughing from time to time, like friends in the heart, but Liang Zhen didn't make a new bet.
"I heard that Ling Sun actually recruited a cultivator in the mansion, why is there no trace of immortals today?"
"Children are playing, just a new monk in the foundation building period, and he should not be called a master!"
When Yingjun heard someone mention him, he couldn't help but struggle to stick his head out of Ogawa's arms, but was pressed back by Ogawa's hand.
Some time ago, there were only four monks in the foundation building period of Shendu, and as Liang Zhen said, they were on the table.
Now the monks who participated in the auction of the Silver Moon Kingdom have basically returned to the divine capital of the Dahan Kingdom, and a group of foreign monks have participated in the selection of protectors held in the divine capital of the Dahan Kingdom. Although the monks of the foundation building period are still extraordinary, they can only be ranked in the middle and upper echelons.
However, if you count it carefully, the one with the highest cultivation is still the one who hides the cultivation, Li Chuping, a monk in the Spiritual Silence Period.
At the end of the day, the monks who participated in the competition had their own displays, although their cultivation was not high, but there were also remarkable points.
"If you want to fish, you have to bait first...... Liang Zhen just said a word, which made Xiaochuan understand the "insidiousness" of this old man.
However, Liang Zhen and Yang Min are the same, they are both playing a game of seeking skin with the tiger, who is the tiger and who is the skin, and no one can predict the ending until the end.
In addition to the selection of the protector mage, the major families will also conduct a competition, of course, it is a secret competition, this kind of intrigue that exists in all aspects, everyone knows it, including the Holy Emperor, but it can't be said on the table, so it is a performance on the surface.
The so-called performance is not difficult, it is nothing more than to show your muscles, deter others, and you can't go overboard, expose your hole cards too much, and master the scale.
However, this Li Chuping still made Xiaochuan a little difficult, and he couldn't figure out the purpose of this guy, so it was difficult to bet.
"He's going to lose!" Liang Zhen said lightly.
Ogawa's money is easy to come by, and it is easy to spend quickly. I counted all the belongings and made up a total of more than three million gold coins.
"Your money is lent to grandpa first!"
"And what if you lose?"
"It's okay, grandpa knows that you have filial piety!"
“......”
Liang Zhen took out all his savings and scraped together two million gold coins, which made Xiaochuan seize the opportunity to laugh at it.
I have a large family to support, how can I have so much savings. Of course you are happy to receive gifts, and you didn't see me when I gave gifts...... Besides, I don't have your ability to rob and cheat again......"
“......”
Although Liang Zhen was poor, he was even more ruthless, and he contacted the clan elders and collected seven million gold coins from each room.
If the gamble is lost, all the properties in Liangzhen will have to be sold, and if they don't rob, the people of Liangzhen will not even be able to live the days of eating steamed buns in the future.
Liang Zhen's explanation is still very convincing. Li Chuping's hidden cultivation can also be said to be pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger. But there is no need to go so far, and let yourself be injured, it should be for another purpose, not for the name of the protector mage.
As for how sure is it?
"It's good to have seven points of certainty in doing things. When you are completely sure to do it, then you won't be able to do anything in this life......" Liang Zhen's words have to be said to be very reasonable.
However, the biggest variable is whether Li Chuping and Yang Min, the Marquis of Jingxiang, have a relationship.
If there is a relationship, then the risk of losing the bet is extremely high.
"Now there are only eight people such as Li Chuping and Xiao Qinghou who will decide the winner in the end, and you can still observe it before making a decision...... "Yang Min and Liang Zhen are enemies, if there is a chance to hit Yang Min, Liang Zhen will naturally not let go." However, although Liang Zhen dared to gamble, he was not crazy.
The next day, there was another battle between the dragons and the tigers. As expected, Li Chuping was still tepid, always defeating his opponents by a very narrow margin.
During this period, Liang Zhen lost another 200,000 gold coins, which was not painful or itchy.
Before the decisive battle of the protector mage, in order to give the final battler a time to recover his mana, the major families sent their own cultivation offerings to "learn".
As a "new foundation building monk", Ying Zhenren won a few "narrowly", but it attracted the attention of many people.
"What? I actually want to take this opportunity to choose another cultivator with advanced cultivation to sit in the mines at the junction of the Great Han Kingdom and the Izumo Empire. The winner will be appointed as the town guard, knighted, and the commander of the army will be ......"
His Majesty the Holy Emperor's order was so unexpected that even Liang Zhen's eyes narrowed when he heard the news.
Normally, it is appropriate to send a senior official of the court, after all, you need to deal with the Izumo Empire, which involves the affairs between the two countries, and it is okay for a cultivator to be an auxiliary candidate.
His Majesty the Holy Emperor's mind is hard to guess......
Yang Min glanced at Liang Zhen, and a hint of pride flashed in his eyes.
Liang Zhen didn't have any expression on his face, which made Yang Min slightly disappointed.
"Li Daoyou's cultivation is profound, I am ashamed of myself, this competition is admitting defeat......" Xiao Qinghou surrendered defeat to Li Chuping very freely, turned around and left the arena, his eyes seemed to sweep Yang Min intentionally or unintentionally.
Ogawa was furious, and his face changed color, but fortunately there was a mask in the way, and no one could find out.
"It turned out to be Xiao Qinghou! bastard, 12 million gold coins...... Young master, I'm bankrupt......" Xiao Chuan can't wait to eat Xiao Qinghou alive now.
Li Chuping with a gloomy face was left on the field.
The battle of the protector came to an end with Xiao Qinghou's initiative to admit defeat.
Li Chuping became the protector of the Great Han Kingdom.
However, the winner is displeased, and the loser is free and easy, which is reverie.
"Haha...... Liang Xiang's three million gold coins, Ben Hou smiled......" Yang Min did not hide the joy on his face at all, and thanked Liang Zhen with his hand.
"Hey, the old man didn't put it all on ......," Ogawa breathed a sigh of relief.
"Old thing, treacherous and slick, no matter how you say it this time, it will make you break your bones...... Look at you and Ben Hou are still against you......" Yang Min was secretly proud.
"Yang Hou is smart, the old man is willing to gamble and lose......" Liang Zhen's face was a little gloomy.
"Ben Hou bets that this Xiao Qinghou can become the town guard, I don't know if Liang Xiangke is still interested...... Yes...... Hahaha......"
"It seems that Yang Hou has the ticket to victory...... The old man still doesn't offer ugliness......"
"Well...... Ben Hou can pay two for one...... Also give Liang Xiang a chance to turn the book, everyone here can testify, how about it?"
"Okay! The old man bets nine million gold coins......
Liang Zhen threw out a sentence lightly.
Yang Min chuckled in his heart.
