It's just after Youshi, and at this time, most people are already getting ready to sleep.
In the open square in the Dingwang Peak Zhili Garden, the lights were brightly lit, and the family members wearing luxurious clothes gathered around, shouting and yelling.
On the empty space in the center of the crowd, a slave walked back and forth with a red face, raising his hands high, and the contracted beast beside him howled loudly, showing the majesty of a victor.
Some of the family members acted boldly, and money was thrown to the ground from all directions.
Someone rang the gong and shouted: "Master Bi Qian has won this battle, is there anyone else who wants to challenge him?"
After the words fell, Yiwu servant stood up from the crowd, a spiritual light appeared on his body, and in the blink of an eye after landing on the ground, a contracted beast appeared out of thin air beside him.
He opened his mouth and let out a roar.
"Send your name!"
"Hengzhou Zeyuan Yan family's half-silver guest, Zhuo Shuwei! Fight for my young master!"
"Come up."
"..."
What is happening in front of you is one of the forms of entertainment for people in this world, called "Ling Yu Kui".
To put it bluntly, it is similar to fighting crickets, except that the crickets are replaced by the contracted beasts of those family disciples.
Cheer for yourself and boo for the other side!
Those watching can choose to place bets, and the odds will depend on who will play.
It’s a pleasure anyway.
Dang, Dang, Dang!
The sect disciple who shouted stepped forward, picked up the mallet and hit the gong several times, and shouted: "The bet has been placed, the bet has been placed!"
"Wuqiao's Yao family will lose four to one! Zeyuan's Yan family will lose six to one!"
The crowd surged, and countless family members, even sect disciples from ordinary families, took out their money and put it on the side they liked.
Among them, Tsurumi Mingbei also threw away ten taels of silver.
He was shouting something in front of the crowd, but everyone around him was cheering for whichever side he won, so his voice seemed a little insignificant.
clang!
The gong was sounded again, and Yuling's championship officially began!
The noise was loud for a while.
"Fight! Beat to death!"
"That Mr. Yan, I've put twenty taels on that guest of yours, don't let me down."
"That's that's..."
"Come on, don't back away!"
"waste!"
"Butt it with your horns!"
Tsurumi Mingbei squeezed in the front, his face full of excitement: "Bite it! Bite it on the neck!"
"Yes! That's it, bite again!"
"...Oops, stand up for me quickly!"
"Come on! Why are you afraid of pain?"
"Tear it down!"
"Is that okay? Why did it fall down again?"
"Ouch! What a waste!"
"..."
The battle was fierce, and the roars of the two giant beasts rang in the ears from time to time. It lasted for half a stick of incense, and finally ended when the contracted beast of Yan's side was seriously injured and fell to the ground.
The contracted beast he was fighting with wanted to give him the final blow and kill him! Fortunately, I was caught at the last moment.
"What a piece of trash, you're not even qualified to carry the shoes of my red general!"
Angrily, he tore up the note in his hand. He lost more than thirty taels of silver that night, and his mentality was on the verge of explosion.
"What a waste!"
He cursed and walked out of the crowd, and was immediately greeted by a servant.
"Master Mingbei..."
The person opposite had a charming smile on his face, with some uneasiness in his smile.
Tsurumi Mingbei frowned when he saw this person, and asked in confusion: "Why are you here? Didn't I see you looking at my red general?"
As soon as he heard this, the servant had a sad face: "Master, you are really embarrassing me. The red general drove us all out."
"Kick it out and wait for it to come back!"
"I, I also wanted to wait for the red general to come back, but...but it's not here anymore!"
"It's gone?" Tsurumi Mingbei was stunned for a moment by the other party's words, and asked subconsciously: "Where did it go?"
"I don't know, not only the red general, but also the life gods of other outer disciples have also disappeared. Now the animal feeding grounds at Dingsheng Peak are in chaos..."
Snapped!
Before he finished speaking, a crisp slap sounded, and the left side of the servant's face suddenly turned red, leaving a clear slap mark.
"You are really useless. You don't know how to send someone to look for it? Why are you looking for me? Are you asking me to look for you?"
"This...why don't you come here and tell me, Master..."
The servant's expression was extremely aggrieved. He was not the only one guarding the red general, but among the servants, he was the one who was bullied, so he had no choice but to come and endure this big showdown.
He saw that Mingbei had lost thirty taels of silver and was feeling depressed. He used a lot of force in this slap, and even thought it was not strong enough. The next moment he kicked him again: "Then why don't you give it to me now?" I find?"
"Yes, yes, little one, go find him immediately!"
The servant didn't dare to refute at all, so he staggered a few steps and ran towards Dingsheng Peak.
But before he went far, Tsurumi Mingbei calmed down a little and couldn't help but think: "Is it because of Xuanli?"
His cousin's contracted beast was a bit weird, so he didn't take it too seriously. He just thought it was a top-grade A-grade contracted beast that was smarter than ordinary contracted beasts.
Anyway, there is nothing wrong with following him, and you can save yourself some money.
The red general was gone, and what he should be worried about was whether it was with Xuan Li or not.
…
"Come back!" Calling the servant just now, Tsurumi Mingbei waved to him and called him back.
"Son..."
"Let me ask you, has Xuan Li appeared?"
"He showed up but left quickly and didn't stay long."
"Leave...when?"
"One moment."
"Then when did my red general disappear?"
"Just two-quarters of an hour ago."
"Did Xuanli go in before disappearing?"
"No, we were watching not far from the door. The Red General did not allow us to get too close. Several brothers were injured by it."
"Okay, okay, come back and continue looking."
Pushing the person aside with a wave of his hand, Tsurumi Mingbei walked towards his cousin's house with two other servants.
He had to first make sure that Shen Yi was with the red general, otherwise he would really not be able to let go.
It was neither far nor close to Tsurumi Chuyun's courtyard, and it took less than a quarter of an hour to arrive in front of her courtyard.
Although they are a family, the family relationship is actually not that deep, so Tsurumi Mingbei knocked on the courtyard door politely.
Not long after, the courtyard door opened, and a woman he didn't recognize at all appeared inside, with a sickly pale face.
"Who are you?"
"Tsurumi Mingbei..."
"Just get to know me. Let me in. I want to find my cousin."
"What do you want from Miss?"
"Ask something."
"Come with me."
The strange woman motioned for the other party to come in, placed both of her hands on her stomach, lowered her head and led him into the main room.
Her steps were a little weak, and Tsurumi Mingbei was watching and scratching his head.
"What's going on here?"
Looking at her like that, she seemed to have been seriously injured.
But he didn't ask. In family matters, those talented brothers and sisters are usually involved. If he has a famous general, he will also be exposed to it in a short time...
As soon as he entered the main room, many people walked out, seeming to be in a tacit understanding.
Anyway, in the end there were only four people left: Tsurumi Mingbei, Tsurumi Chuyun, the strange woman and Chuntan.
The strange woman briefly told Tsurumi Chuyun her purpose, and her face quickly darkened, looking at her cousin with a very unkind look.
"Cousin...cousin, I'm here...I'm here to see the red general."
"What do you want the red general to do here with me?"
…
