"Sir, please come in quickly. Even though my store is a little simple, if you want to get first-hand information about this competition, you have to go to a small store!" The waiter couldn't help seeing the shocked expressions of A Lang and others. I explained the advantages of my own inn.
"Seller, your store is indeed a bit shabby, but it doesn't matter, as long as I can rest, I just don't have much money, so I hope the store can arrange a corner seat for me and others. My master is not feeling well, so I hope the store can forgive me!" Chu Nian Lang just wanted to arrange for a few people to rest as soon as possible and directly took over the waiter's words.
"Brother, I'm serious. The owner of my shop said that he didn't intend to make money by opening this inn. He just provided a place to rest for the destined Taoist friends. Every night, he only charged a symbolic fee of one bronze stone for each straw mat. , if you forget to bring the immortal stone when you go out, you can make up for it if you have a chance."
"Oh? That's interesting. So we can live here first, and then we can make up the payment when we have enough money?" A Lang heard the waiter's explanation, and became curious about the owner.
"It's understandable, but my shopkeeper comes and goes without a trace. I don't know how long this temporary inn has been open. I grew up with the shopkeeper since I was a child. Until now, I have never seen the face of my shopkeeper. He only asked me to call him It’s Boss Feng, so if you don’t have the Immortal Bronze Stone to pay for the accommodation, just think of it as a favor to Boss Feng.” The waiter said as he led the four of A Lang to the northeast corner of this open-air inn, which is just diagonal to the entrance of the inn. Direction, relatively speaking, it is a relatively quiet location.
The waiter led a few people to a corner and then turned around and left. Chu Nianlang arranged Taoist Ergou on the straw mat in the innermost corner, then turned around and asked A Lang about his wishes, "Elder brother, which mat do you think you will sleep on? I will sleep on the outside, or you can sleep next to my straw mat." Go to sleep, let brother Dundun sleep next to Uncle Zhongquan."
"No, no, you should sleep next to Uncle Gou. I'll probably have to worry about him all night if I sleep next to him. I'll sleep on the outside, so I can inquire about the so-called inside information. Brother Dundun can just sleep next to me." ." A Lang looked at Shi Dundun aside and asked Shi Dundun's opinion with his eyes. Shi Dundun still responded to A Lang with a naive smile, even though the small red flower tied on his face was so dazzling, "I listen to Brother Lang, anything is fine!" Chu Nianlang saw that A Lang and Shi Dundun's responses were consistent. He felt that A Lang's opinions were reasonable and stopped refuting, "Okay then, you You two should rest early. There will be a game tomorrow morning, and we don’t know what kind of team we will face. Uncle Zhong Quan and I will rest first." After Chu Nianlang finished speaking, he saw A Lang smiling and nodding in response, looking a little worried. In response, he helped the Taoist Ergou lie down on the straw mat and then entered into a state of meditation and breath-control practice.
Alang saw that Chu Nianlang and Ergou Taoist had entered a resting state and smiled at Shi Dundun. How could they miss such a rare free time? Alang stood up gently and walked towards the Beggar Inn. The crowd was the loudest. As they walked towards the place, the huge Shi Dundun followed A Lang. Although the two looked sneaky, they did not attract much attention. Instead, the shouts from the straw mat in the center of the inn caused a commotion, "This is The results of the first half of the game are determined. There is no need to compete at all. If you are willing to give it a try in the second half of the game, you can come to me to place a bet. Jiamen Casino, with its golden brand name and guaranteed reputation, is the ultimate way for you to make a fortune and advance in practice. Help." The speaker was dressed in jewels, with a plump figure, and an eye-catching outfit. He kept waving a triangular flag embroidered with the word "銊" in his hand.
"Jianmen Casino is too popular, right? The first half of the game has not yet started. The results came out? If it is so amazing, why do you need to open the handicap for the second half? Just make the decision directly, or you want to make money for poor people like us. Taoist money? Or maybe the Jiamen Casino didn't dare to open the handicap for the first half?" The fat monk who claimed to be from the Jiamen Casino suddenly stopped waving the triangular flag with his right hand, frowned, and looked carefully in the crowd. Looking for the source of the questioning voice, a man wearing a gray cloak and holding swords crossed on his chest was quickly found.
"Fellow Daoist, you are really joking. We, Jiamen Casino, have always been adhering to the principle of serving distinguished guests from all over the world and never making any ill-gotten gains. This area of the selection competition is not qualified to be a market that can be set up. First, the competition level It’s too low. Secondly, there is basically no suspense about the outcome of the entire competition. If you know a little about the participating teams, anyone who is not stupid can guess the result very accurately. According to the rules of the competition, the first half of the competition is basically certain. Yes, although our casino has set up benefits for our guests to bet on the second half of the game, if the first half of the game is opened, it will basically only lose money but not make any profit. Even if we distribute the benefits, we can't do it like a fool, right?"
"Hmph! After talking about so much benevolence and morality, it turns out that the casino does not have the guts to open a handicap for the first half of the game?" The man in the gray cloak snorted coldly, and directly choked the fat man of the casino. Monk.
"Haha, haha! Is there still a gambling market in the world that I dare not open?" Brother Feiying laughed, and then changed his voice, "What a joke! Fellow Taoist is a little arrogant, although I am very polite to you. I'm not happy, but I still want to remind you that the rules for the first half of this competition are that the first-level representative teams from the five towns in the southwest of Zhennan Prefecture will advance directly, and the second-level teams from the five towns will have a brawl, and the five winning teams will draw lots to determine the duel. first-level representative team. The second half is a points showdown, and the first-level representative teams of the five towns are equally strong, so there are certain variables in the second half of the game. As for the first half of the game, it is ultimately between the first-level team and the second-level team. During the knockout round, fellow Taoist asked me about the betting odds for the first half, don’t you know how the participating teams define the team level?”
"Of course I know this. The minimum cultivation level of the first-level representative team members is the Spirit Controlling Realm, and the second-level team members are at the Spiritual Enlightenment Realm and below."
"So Fellow Daoist knows about it? Does Fellow Daoist think that the second-level team has the possibility of crossing the realm and defeating the first-level team?"
"Don't worry about the possibility or impossibility, just tell me whether your Jiamen Gambling House dares to set up a betting handicap for the first half!"
"Haha, what an interesting fellow Taoist! Well, as I told you before, there is no betting market in the world that our Jiamen Casino dares to set up. I now declare that the betting market for the first half of this competition will be The odds of a first-level team beating a second-level team are 1 to 1, and the odds of losing are 1 to 10! Fellow Taoist, do you want to place a bet?"
"Hmph, why don't you dare!" The man in the gray cloak snorted coldly. Just as he was about to say the amount of the bet, a loud roar came from behind. As soon as the roar came out, everyone immediately doubted whether they were dreaming, or even Even the man in the gray cloak shook his head to make sure that he was not dreaming, and the roar clearly came from A Lang's mouth, "I can defeat the first-level team by defeating the second-level team in Yuanshan Town, and I can defeat 50,000 immortal gold stones!" "Immortal gold stone?" ? fifty thousand? ? ? ? ! ! ! !
