"Beiliangcheng" is 15 miles out of the north gate, and there is a "stock market" cliff in "Xiaozhong Nanshan".
The cliff is thousands of feet high.
These days, every once in a while, someone jumps off a cliff, jumps down, and falls to pieces.
Among these people who jumped off the cliff, there were bankrupt businessmen, officials who lost their official positions, those who failed to make the list, patients who were infected, those who were in debt, those who were injured, young men who were frustrated, those who were infected, those who lost their wives, and those who were humiliated......
No matter what their identity is, no matter what their reason is, these people climb the "stock market" cliff for only one purpose -
Suicide!
- People who commit suicide are cowards who have no courage.
Except for a very small number of kind people, you may be able to tear up a handful of tears and sigh, and most of you will become boring people after you die, just a joke after dinner.
If you are not afraid of death, are you still afraid of life?
In life, there are many ups and downs, there will be a lot of gains and losses, you have to try a lot of wins and losses, as long as you come to this world, you can't be spared, you can't choose. If you don't care about ups and downs, gains and losses, and wins and losses, I'm afraid no one can do it.
However, if you can't afford to lose, you can't afford to lose, and your life will really be a complete failure.
If you live, you will have the opportunity to get up, the possibility of victory, and the hope of success, otherwise, you will live in vain and have nothing.
People who commit suicide are stupid.
Stupider than eggs.
However, after the Mid-Autumn Festival on August 15, there are more and more such fools.
Every day, there are many people of all kinds waiting to jump off the cliff of the "stock market" and commit suicide.
The reason is very simple, because they all lost money in the "Sword Laughter" gambling game just past, lost their families, lost their money, lost their wives, and lost their families.
The gambling syndicate that operates this gambling game is a mysterious organization called the "God of Wealth Gambling Group".
No one knows the details and origin of this gambling group, people only know that this organization has five behind-the-scenes hosts, who are secretive and powerful, and accept all kinds of strange gambling games and bets in the world.
"Sword Laughter" Wu Yí is the most successful classic game planned by the "God of Wealth Gambling Group", because the "Blue Dragon Society" senior protector "Yin Demon" Wei Chi Twelve, entangled in the "January Hall" and "June Hall" masters launched a court rebellion, Zhou Xing and Luo Zhengxi's duel ended in vain (see "Sword Laughter" volume);
Many losers who couldn't withstand the blow chose to go onto the "stock market" cliff, including Jin Chengwu, the shopkeeper of "Shuyuzhai", and Zhang Manyu, his daughter-in-law.
The golden shopkeeper put two thousand taels of silver on Zhou Xingzao, which is almost his entire net worth.
Zhou Xing had already rescued the golden shopkeeper and Xiaoyu (see the volume of "Slaughtering the City"), no matter what, the golden shopkeeper had to support his benefactor, he believed in his little friend, and he preferred yì to believe that he would revive the "Shuyu Zhai" through this gamble.
Greedy people almost all end up in the same way.
Penniless, the golden shopkeeper with four walls of the family, can no longer withstand setbacks and failures, he decided to leave this ugly world of the jungle, he left his only things to his beloved daughter-in-law Xiaoyu, persuaded her to remarry; Xiaoyu didn't say anything, she silently led this old man who was half a father and half a husband, and silently followed up the cliff.
Just like that day, she refused to propose the "destroying playboy" Gongzi Ming.
When Leng Ruoshuang pulled the two of them out of the team with dazed faces and sluggish spirits, Ruoshuang slapped the golden shopkeeper more than a dozen times, and then Hòu pointed to the abyss not far away and shouted: "If you want to die, you die alone! Don't drag down a good girl like Xiaoyu!"
Jin Chengwu squatted on the ground, choking silently.
Xiaoyu hugged the man from behind and cried bitterly......
Half a year later.
An astonishing piece of news caused a sensation in the entire "Saibei".
The "God of Wealth Gambling Group" once again struck hard and accepted a bet of up to 300,000 taels of gold.
This time, they are betting on the life-and-death decision of the two masters in the world, and the degree of sensation will far overshadow the "sword laughter" that is in the ascendant.
Regarding this gambling game, the "God of Wealth Gambling Group" has a fairly detailed information:
Date: July 7, sub-hour.
Location: Liangcheng Inn
Stake: 300,000 taels of gold.
Handicap: 1 to 1.
Duelists: An Tianming, Zhao Qinghou.
Notary public: "Righteous Villa" owner "Zhisuo" Qu Jinhe, "Renweng" Hu Yindie, "Yonggong" Guan Yumen.
July 7th.
The eight sedan chairs on the official road walked extremely slowly, and they were not in a hurry at all.
Zhao Qinghou is the most lacking in three things, guards, women, and time.
In the team he was now with him, there were seventy-three defenders, including Leng Mo, and there were two beautiful women in his arms, and he still had ten hours to spare.
Zhao Qinghou knew that his counterpart shǒu was already waiting for him at the "Liangcheng Inn".
Before leaving, his beloved wife Chu Xiaoxiao in his arms had already conveyed to him the meaning of the Empress Dowager Chu in the palace, and she would kill An Tianfang.
The potential threat of the "Fuguì Group" is getting bigger and bigger, and the Empress Dowager Chu, the core figure of the royal family's "Concubine Party", has decided to first cut off Chai Ruge's two wings Shen Zhongxia and An Tianming's latter, because for them, Shen Zhongxia, who has deep power in the rivers and lakes, is far less threatening than An Tianming, the "forbidden army" commander who has the support of the old county king An Taifu and holds the real power of the military.
It is definitely not an easy task to get rid of An Tianming, who is both civil and military and has a good reputation in the "forbidden army".
Zhao Qinghou was sure of this battle, and on the seventh day of July, An Tianming would die under his sword.
He even sent his youngest son Zhao Shun to the "capital" early, carrying all kinds of rare treasures from the northwest to visit Cai Jing, Li Gang, Bu Qingyi, Wang Hao, Gao Yu and other bigwigs in Beijing, and campaigned for the post of "commander of the forbidden army".
Zhao Qinghou has two sons and one daughter.
The eldest son, Zhao Xun, as the eldest son, commanded 300,000 Jingjia to guard the border west, and will be the hereditary marquis and general of Zhenxi in the future.
Zhao Yu is now snuggling in the arms of his adoptive father Zhao Qinghou with his adoptive mother Chu Xiaoxiao, and whispering intimate words to his adoptive parents.
Eight strong men with broad shoulders and narrow waists slowed down, and the big sedan finally stopped slowly, stopping in front of the door of the "Liangcheng Inn" that had been newly painted and decorated inside and outside.
"Seventy-two Flying Cloud Riders" elite northwest teenagers are lined up like goose wings on the side of the road, and the road has already been paved with red felt.
Leng Mo came to the front of the sedan chair and said in a low voice: "Master Hou, Lord Hai, the prefect of 'Liangzhou', greets the military driver." ”
The wind and the sun are beautiful, and it is a good weather to kill people.
This day was noon on July 7, and Zhao Qinghou, the hereditary "Anle Hou" of the "General Zhenxi", finally drove to the "Liangcheng Inn" under the watchful eyes of the public.
In the seventh room of the "Wind" on the third floor of the "Liangcheng Inn", a piece of information was passed between the two people in the room:
Zhao Qinghou, a descendant of Taizong, was a relative of the Empress Dowager.
He used troops in the northwest, repeatedly resisted the "Western Xia" and had military exploits, hereditary marquis, proud of this, he called himself "light marquis", but it was just a gesture to the outside world, and intentionally or unintentionally pointed out that the lord he attacked was "marquis";
He was eight feet five inches tall, had a good face, and was very well-dressed, with food, wine, beautiful women, famous horses, fine clothes, and jewelry, all of which he loved;
He studied under the "Shaolin", fist and sword, similar to the "Four Great Monks", and the title of "the first master of Shaolin layman" is well deserved;
He was pretentious and elegant, and he never ignored money matters, but he loved gold and jewelry the most.
"Your men can betray you, your women can leave you, only money is eternal. He said, "There is nothing in this world that is more real and reliable than money." ”
He is a disciple of Buddhism, he has compassion, he never kills, not even an ant is willing to step on it, but he slaughtered 30,000 "party" herdsmen overnight, stained the red and green clouds with blood, and will succeed in ten thousand bones.
After reading the information at hand, Shen Zhongxia sighed and shook his head slightly: "This person is not easy to deal with." ”
An Tianming stood in front of the window with a knife: "What did the little prince say?"
"Die!" Shen Zhongxia said again: "Zhao Qinghou is Bu Qingyi's military foreign aid, and he is very close to Prince Huan, if he doesn't take this opportunity to get rid of him, his 400,000 northwest army will definitely become the most stumbling block to the little prince's plan to restore the country in the future." ”
An Tianming said: "What is the current situation in the handicap?"
"One out of ten. Shen Zhongxia said with a smile: "The fifth God of Wealth of the 'God of Wealth Gambling Group' has already taken a bet of 300,000 taels of gold. ”
"300,000 taels of gold?" An Tianming asked in horror, "Who made the bet?"
"The bet placed by the 'God of Wealth Gambling Group' bets on Zhao Qinghou to win. Shen Zhongxia said:
"According to common sense, the 'God of Wealth Gambling Group' is willing to take this bet, of course, it is nine out of ten to win, and to win; however, the Grand Commander can relax and compete, because the notary 'Three Elders of Justice' invited this time, they all have pigtails in my hands, and they dare not listen to my words. ”
-- The "God of Wealth Gambling Group", a mysterious and huge gambling group organized by the big landowners of coal mines in Shanxi and the bosses of money banks in "Beijing", which has the financial resources and courage to do any kind of business and make any kind of money.
