Bang, bang, the heavy chains dragged on the rock floor, making a harsh sound. Even though the sound was so uncomfortable, no one came to stop it. Xiao Yunfan hated this sound. Although he protested, the man paid no attention to him.
The long corridor is dark and damp. The rotten musty smell came from nowhere. Although it smelled disgusting, for Xiao Yunfan, it seemed that he could only choose to endure it. Because no one cares about his feelings.
The walls on both sides of the corridor are made of hard and cold granite, with grotesque patterns of beasts carved on them. The ferocious expressions of grinding teeth and sucking blood can be described as lifelike. In addition to these reliefs, there is a niche every ten steps on the wall. An animal bone lamp is lit in the niche, and the wick scatters bluish-white light, always giving people the feeling of hell.
Xiao Yunfan was led by a chain like this, just like a tamed dog. Although there was a trace of reluctance in his heart, he did not resist. Walking in front of him was a tall, powerful man.
This man's upper body was naked, his arms were tied with iron rings, he had flower python tattoos on his chest and back, and he was wearing leather shorts around his waist. It wasn't that Xiao Yunfan was walking behind this person and couldn't see his face clearly, but that this person
He was wearing a helmet and a visor on the helmet. He didn't see the man's face clearly from the beginning.
The shape of the opponent's helmet is also very special, with two horns protruding from the left and right ends of the head. Looking from the back, it looks like a cultivating monster. The two of them came to an iron gate, one behind the other. The strong man leaned his back against the wall and sat down slowly. Then he stretched out his hairy palm and pinched out a few dry leaves from a small cloth bag at his waist, put them into his mouth and chewed them.
Xiao Yunfan looked at him in confusion and asked curiously: "Hey! Big man, what are you eating?" The man said coldly: "None of your business." He didn't quite understand at the moment how important a slave like him was. humble. Although the strong man in front of him is also a slave, he is one level higher than him. He is the humblest kind among the slaves, called an ant.
Seeing that the other party ignored him, Xiao Yunfan shamelessly chatted with him and said: "Hey, big man. When I came, someone said that I would play against Zi Yanzi tonight. Do you know who Zi Yanzi is? Is he a boy or a girl? Is he very powerful? ?”
After hearing what he said, the big man was startled at first. Then he said calmly: "Are you sure it's her you're going to fight against?" Xiao Yunfan was secretly puzzled. The other party had been ignoring him just now, but as soon as he mentioned the purple swallow, the other party became uncharacteristically uncharacteristic.
The big man first grabbed a handful of dry leaves and stuffed them into Xiao Yunfan's hand. Then he said: "Take care, buddy." Seeing that the other party gave some of the dried leaves to himself, Xiao Yunfan felt quite proud and asked hurriedly: "You didn't talk to me along the way, why did I mention you Ziyanzi?" Are you starting to care about me?"
The big man said solemnly: "Because you will die soon. For a dying slave, I can still satisfy your meager wish."
There are four forces in the City of Darkness. Usually these four forces stay in their own territory. They will only meet during this "Fire and Rain Festival". This rule was set by the master of the City of Darkness. Although the four major forces were arrogant, they were in awe of the master of the underground city-state. Without this person's existence, there would be no them.
The four major powers are Rose Villa, Huiyan City, Wanwu Castle, and Fengmo Palace.
Songxi, the owner of Rose Villa, is a Siamese, mainly engaged in spices and romance business; Leihuang, the owner of Huiyan City, is a Persian Hu, mainly engaged in jewelry and wine business; Charlie, a Franconian from Wanwubao, is engaged in firearms and Ship business (France is the name of Portugal in the Ming Dynasty); Kozuka Tojiro of Fuma Temple runs a private salt and calligraphy and painting business.
The "Fire Rain Festival" is a grand event that lasts from March to July. During this period, the four major forces in the City of Darkness meet each other. At this time, the four major lords will bring out their best things to attract customers. Beauties, fine wines, treasures, all the beautiful things in this world can be seen in the "Fire and Rain Festival".
The unprecedented grand event was the life and death arena, and the four major lords also recruited various characters to participate in this competition. In addition to the lords, the Dark City will also invite some special patrons as guests to watch this arena match.
Ling Taixu handed over the task of seizing the book to Su Changmao. Due to the shortage of fuel oil for the demon ship, Su Changmao had to come to this dark city to trade fuel. The Demon Ship was Charlie's masterpiece. Looking at the entire Ming Dynasty, it seemed that only Charlie had the fuel oil in stock. Rather than saying that Su Changmao's arrival was an invitation from Charlie, it would be better to say that he was controlled by others.
Eight strong men carried a big drum, and a woman wearing a feather mask and gauze stood on the drum and danced. Her soft waist swings back and forth like a willow. She stood on tiptoes and danced the Hu Xuan Wu on the drum. The ribbons wrapped around her arms were flying up and down like two red clouds, which was extremely beautiful. 1234
The four major lords sat in their respective positions, all looking at this grand event tonight. After the dancer finished dancing, there was another group of people performing acrobatics. I saw a man climbing and jumping barefoot on a ladder made of steel knives. Then there were people performing tricks such as breathing fire, walking on charcoal with bare feet, and washing hands with boiling oil.
After a lot of excitement, several masked people threw torches into a huge stone altar, which immediately burst into flames. The flames shot out from the center to the surroundings, making a hissing sound, and fell on the lampposts of the circular square like fire and meteors.
Su Changmao originally planned to set off after trading with Charlie. But due to the other party's kind invitation, he had to stay and watch the competition in the ring. With the sound of a gong, a muscular man shouted loudly: "The battle of life and death begins now!"
Two iron doors opened, and two slaves walked out. One had a dark face and a tall build, while the other had a scrawny face and a slight build. Charlie picked up the silver wine bottle and said to Su Changmao in fluent Chinese: "Mr. Su, who of these two will win? Why don't we bet a hundred gold baht?" Su Changmao picked up a telescope and pointed it at it. Chang Xin looked at him and said, "I bet on that skinny guy."
Charlie said: "Okay! Let's wait and see." As he said that, he also picked up a telescope and looked at the center of the field. Thirty-two people participated in the competition that night. According to the slaves declared by each of the four major lords, there were only eight matches at most that night. The first four matches were between Tojiro Otsuka's slaves and Charlie's slaves, and the last four matches were between Lady Rose's people and the Thunder Emperor. people.
The tall man in the first scene was bought by Charlie with a lot of money, and his name is Daliwan. This man can kill a cow with one punch. But the scrawny man named Jia Fei practiced soft skills. When the two of them fought, they used deadly moves. Daliwan's fist was as big as a bowl and was covered with cocoons. Every punch he struck carried a huge amount of power. Jia Fei didn't dare to take it hard, so he had to jump left and right.
Dali Wan hugged Jia Fei forward with both hands, trying to hold Jia Fei in his arms, crushing the opponent's bones to pieces with the force of a bull. Jia Fei was not fooled. With his feet on the ground, he suddenly jumped onto the opponent's shoulders and slapped the opponent's door with one palm. It turned out that there was a steel needle between his fingers. Daliwan roared wildly, trying to pull the opponent off his shoulders. However, Jia Fei's body was as slippery as a loach, unable to keep his hand.
His needle went down and hit the opponent's Baihui point. Daliwan's huge body fell backwards with a bang, and Jia Fei kicked the opponent's chest with both feet, sending him flying backwards. The audience burst into warm applause.
Xiao Yunfan stood in the iron fence and looked at the scene in front of him. He asked the big man: "Isn't it a foul for that thin man to hurt someone with a hidden weapon?"
The big man said: "It doesn't matter. As long as you knock the opponent down, you can use any means." Xiao Yunfan sighed: "Then what is the difference between fighting like this and the bite of wild beasts?" The big man said: "You are slaves. To put it harshly, Even worse than an animal." Xiao Yunfan looked at the shackles on his body and smiled bitterly: "Can't the fate of the slave be in his own hands?"
The big man said: "Perhaps there were slaves who could do it in the past, but now it may be difficult." Xiao Yunfan asked curiously: "Why?" The big man said: "Because there are not many ways to become adults from slaves. Those who have become masters Slaves, naturally no more people will become themselves.”
Xiao Yunfan nodded and said: "I understand what you mean. Those who have been slaves do not want to be slaves again, and those who have become masters must prevent slaves from becoming masters a thousand times. In that case, their power will be Weakened." The big man said: "You seem to understand very well, but it's a pity that you can't change your destiny."
Xiao Yunfan said: "Then I have to give it a try. You used to be a Class C slave, but now you are a Class B slave. It can be seen that Class C can be promoted to Class B. I think with my ability, I should be able to become a Class A slave." The big man laughed strangely and said, "You...you are a dying person, and you still talk like this?"
Xiao Yunfan ignored him and just chewed the mint leaves. Waves of slight bitterness and coolness seemed to revive something in his body. He grabbed the railing and looked outside.
In the shed to the north, Su Changmao looked at the wooden plate with gold baht on it and said with a smile: "Mr. Charlie, I don't want this gold baht anymore. If you can sell me more stone fat every time, I will win the competition." I will be even happier if I get this gold baht."
Charlie blinked and shook his head and said: "Then you really can't blame me, Mr. Su. It is difficult to mine this stuff, and the output is very small. Besides, our master also has restrictions on the transaction, even if I want to sell you more. , but it’s not allowed from above.” Su Changmao took a sip of wine and said helplessly: “That’s really regrettable.”
Although Franco only lost one game, he won the next few games with great success. Soon it was Lady Rose's people versus the Thunder Emperor's people. Amid a burst of cheers, the young man named Aaron walked onto the ring holding a spear.
In the southern tent, Mrs. Rose, wearing a black veil, also picked up a telescope and looked into the field. She whispered: "I wish you good luck, Aaron. If you die unfortunately, then I will not lose a little bit of gold. At that time, I swear, I will use your meat to feed those wild dogs." You'd better not disappoint me."
Amid the sound of the gong, Aaron's spear shook and he fought with the Wild Boar King's double swords.
