Chapter 550: Playing the long game to catch the big fish

Chengshi stood still with a successful smile on his face. He used a lot of force with the blow just now. It hit Zhang Xiaohua on the back of his hand. Looking at the expression on his face just now, he must have been seriously injured, haha , both hands are injured, let’s see how he responds.

Thinking, he turned around and swung the stick to attack again, but unfortunately, Zhang Xiaohua stood there with his hands clasped in his hands, smiling and motionless, Cheng Shi was surprised, the stick was already swung in the air, wasn't he afraid? ? At this time, I heard Mr. Lei shouting: "Stop, Danbu Chengshi has already crossed the line, and Caobu Ren Xiaoyao will win in this game!"

"What?" Cheng Shi was confused immediately. That was fifty taels of gold. He should have compensated Zhang Xiaohua fifty taels of gold earlier, but Wu Zhouxu took out a few taels of gold on his behalf in order to allow him to catch big fish in the long run. A bottle of elixir and a "Jade Return Pill", Wu Zhouxu had no intention of letting him play in this competition, but Wuzhouxu people were not as good as God, and when the lot was drawn in the first gambling fight, he was not included in the competition. He was drawn, so he was not sure which of the subsequent games could really catch Zhang Xiaohua, and when the ten kings unanimously opposed his "competing with the people for profit", he gave up participating. Of course, Chengshi participated in the gambling. Dou's basic requirement is that the elixir worth fifty taels of gold must be taken out of his own pocket, and he will not be responsible for even one of the elixirs.

Thinking that he had to take out fifty taels of gold elixir, and he didn't know why he lost the bet, which was obviously far from the sideline, so Chengshi couldn't help but got distracted, and the eyebrow-leveling stick in his hand also He didn't stop because of Mr. Lei's shout, and hit Zhang Xiaohua's face directly. Zhang Xiaohua stood with his hands folded and looked at him quietly. Seeing that he didn't stop, the stick was still very powerful, and he didn't realize it. Frowning slightly, it would be effortless to kick him away or catch him with his hands at this time, but if it were like this, the previous acting would have been in vain, so Zhang Xiaohua exerted force on his feet and stepped back several times in a row. While taking a step, he "accidentally" tripped his right foot with his left foot and fell to the ground. The solid eyebrow-leveling stick also hit the ground, injuring all the flowers and plants.

Cheng Shi was so pitiful. Looking at Wu Zhouxu who had an expression of hatred on his face, and the many fellow Danbu brothers who had expressions of regret on their faces, how unjust it was. He was about to ask. After all, Wu Zhouxu pointed at his feet and motioned for him to watch carefully, so Chengshi shut up and looked around carefully. It didn't matter whether he looked at it or not, his lungs were about to explode with anger. Not far in front of him was a thin line. Wasn't it the sideline of the gambling arena? And the Kusanabe disciple who should have been sitting next to the thin line is now sitting far behind him, with a serious and upright face, but he can't help but laugh at the mockery in his eyes!

"This...you..." Chengshi looked at his feet and pointed at Zhang Xiaohua. He really didn't know what to say.

Zhang Xiaohua cupped her hands and said: "Senior Brother Cheng is really strong in martial arts. This Eyebrow Stick Technique is so wonderful. I am really no match for you, so I had to steal a trick. I hope Senior Brother Cheng can forgive me. By the way, Cheng What is the name of this stick technique of Senior Brother? I have never seen it before. Moreover, Senior Brother Cheng is extremely powerful. Using this stick technique is almost like a diamond from the Nine Heavens coming down to the mortal world, which makes me feel irresistible from the bottom of my heart..."

Zhang Xiaohua said while walking,

Cheng Shi felt happy in his heart: "Look, it's not that I'm not good at martial arts. People make mistakes and horses make mistakes. It's just that I let this treacherous guy succeed this time. I'll deal with him next time."

Chengshi's face looked like a senior brother: "Junior Brother Ren, gambling requires real ability. You can get by for a while just relying on cleverness, but you can't get by for a lifetime. If you want to gain a foothold in Tianmu Peak, you can't keep doing this. , just blindly cheating."

Zhang Xiaohua bowed: "Little brother, please teach me."

Cheng Shi took advantage of the situation and whispered: "Then...is the lottery prize...?"

Zhang Xiaohua said seriously: "Senior Brother Cheng just taught me a lesson, don't cheat and cheat? In this case, we must not break the rules of gambling. I will keep this prize for you, waiting for your next challenge." How about losing to you again? Senior Brother Cheng can use his true ability to win back, don’t you feel at ease?"

After hearing this, Cheng Shi wanted to slap himself in the mouth, but thinking that he could win it back next time, he was a little more accepting in his heart. He pointed at Zhang Xiaohua and said, "This is what you said. I will challenge you by name in a few days." You, you must accept the challenge."

Zhang Xiaohua's heart had long been filled with joy, but she still panicked and said: "Okay, senior brother Cheng, don't worry, I will definitely show my true ability, but you must be merciful."

Chengshi let out a "hum", waved his hand, and walked down. It seemed that he was the winner of this gambling battle!

Zhang Xiaohua smiled and watched Chengshi leave the venue and walk towards the Caobu disciples. At this time, Chen Fenghiao and Qiu Weicheng had already sat back to their original places. They could hear their conversation clearly. Chen Fenghiao and Qiu Weichen Chengdu smiled, secretly gave Zhang Xiaohua a thumbs up, and thought to himself: "This guy is really... Oh, I don't know whether he is smart or cunning. He just won this game and won the lottery, so he deceived others. The next gambling fight has been booked, and I’m keeping an eye on the winnings..."

Not to mention that the two of them rested separately, Lei Lao, who was on the field, opened the box again. In the seventh gambling battle, Kusanabe drew another one and it was the Six King Kong Zheng of Erluohan Erdumu against Danbei. thread. As mentioned in the above article, the martial arts of the Arhats in the Cao tribe are generally lower than those of the Vajras in the Dan tribe. However, the Arhats at the top can just outlast the Vajras at the bottom. Now when Erdu Mu faced Zheng Xu, It is also the one who wins more and loses less.

When drinking last night, Wu Dalang from Danbu asked Master Chen from Caobu several times about the order of today's troop formations, but Chen Feng smiled and gritted his teeth and seemed not to say anything. At this time, Wu Zhouxu heard the battle. The two of them were almost indignant at the injustice of the sky. You can just memorize this gambling fight, but you can't do it like this, and the winnings of the gambling fight are unprecedentedly high!

Vomiting blood, vomiting blood, Wu Zhouxu only had this premonition...

The gambling fight between Er Dumu and Zheng Xu was the same as the previous ones. They were very familiar with each other. They knew their martial arts moves, their habits, and their exquisite internal strength. They were just fighting for each other. Each of these fifty taels of gold elixirs used their special tricks to squeeze out the bottom of the box, and they fought for nearly three sticks of incense before deciding the winner. As expected, Erdomu Kusanabe won the final victory. victory.

At this point, not only Er Dumu was jumping for joy, happy to have won fifty taels of gold, but also Chen Fengxiao, Qiu Weicheng and other Caobu disciples were overjoyed, because after the seventh gambling battle, Caobu had already won After winning five games, Danbei only had two. Kusanabe was determined not to spend a huge share of his already meager elixir stock to lose to Danbei. If he could win one of three games, he would get five. 20% of a hundred taels of gold, if it is a complete victory, hehe, isn't it 60%, that is a pill worth three hundred taels of gold. Thinking about this, Chen Fengxiao at this time has the urge to pinch his own thigh.

On the opposite side, Wu Zhouxu is full of bitterness. There are still five, seven, and eight kings in Danbu who are not on the stage, but in Caobu, there are three Arhats and Zhang Xiaohua who are not on stage. Looking at the way Zhang Xiaohua defeated Cheng Shi just now, seven, The Eight King Kongs are probably not their opponents. In other words, the Five Arhats can only win one game, and lose the remaining two games without any accident. Doing the math, Kusanabe estimates that he will lose two hundred taels of gold elixirs!

It's bitter, even more bitter than Coptis chinensis.

The eighth gambling fight officially started with the loud voice of Mr. Lei. However, Wu Zhouxu’s attention had long been absent from the scene because he had arranged for Ba Jingang Yueyi to appear in this gambling fight, and he was probably He is not Zhang Xiaohua’s opponent either. But when he heard the name of Qian Zibi, the third Arhat in the Kusanabe, he couldn't help but feel hope rising from the bottom of his heart.

Of course, Yue Yi is no match for Qian Zibi, that's for sure. Yue Yi's martial arts skills are inferior to Qian Zibi's, and even his previous record was a complete defeat. But there are explanations for the remaining two games. On the one hand, Zhang Xiaohua may not be able to do it physically if he wants to play two games in a row. On the other hand, Wu Zhouxu knew in his heart that he sent Wu Jingang Ye Chengliao in the ninth game. He should Zhang Xiaohua is sure to win, and Zhang Xiaohua will directly enter the tenth game after fighting with Ye Chengliao. Although it is Qi Yuntian, Zhang Xiaohua is already exhausted, so he may not win. If that is the case , Danbu only lost one game, 20% of the prize, which is one hundred taels of gold, well, it can be accepted, just treat it as if all the hard work in the past few years was in vain, and return all the pills won from Kuababu. That’s all.

As expected, this eighth gambling battle ended very quickly. If it had been before, Qian Zibi might have been able to get Yue Yi to make two moves, and the friendship between the two would have been enjoyable for the surrounding disciples. But today, the battle involving fifty taels of gold Qian Zibi was afraid that the boat would capsize in the gutter. After just ten rounds of fighting, he showed his weakness and grabbed Yue Yi's acupuncture points and threw him to the ground.

After the two of them walked off the field, Zhang Xiaohua stood up without waiting for Mr. Lei to call his name and was about to walk into the field. Chen Feng smiled upon seeing this, grabbed his sleeves, and said softly: "Xiao Brother, now our grass department has won a game, and we have obtained one hundred taels of gold, which has already paid for the elixir we lost to the Dan family in the past few years. You don’t have to bear any burden. You have already won a game before. If you lose another game, it will be a tie. If you lose two more games, just exchange all the previous elixirs for the Danbu. Of course, our Caobu can also take out these elixirs for you. Little brother, you don’t have to. Worry."

Then, Chen Feng looked at Wu Zhouxu opposite with a smile, hesitated to speak, and said softly: "And, if we win too much, Wu Dalang of Danbu..."

Zhang Xiaohua listened and said with a smile: "The boss arranged my last two games together. I already understand what's going on. Don't worry."
