"He's not crazy." Bai Wuwu replied for Qin Chuo, "He just wants to get back the more than 100 land deeds he lost in my casino."
"What?! One - more than a hundred copies?!" Qin Xinru felt dizzy in front of her eyes and almost fell to the high platform. She hurriedly stretched out her hand to hold the handle of the chair to steady her body. It's not that she overreacted, but that the Qin family's property only totaled more than a hundred shares, and I'm afraid Qin Chuo lost all of it.
"Qin Chuo, you bastard!"
"Little bastard, have you lost all the Qin family's property?"
"The shop on Rongsheng Street belongs to my fourth room, why do you gamble with it?! Why don't you give me an explanation today and see if I don't skin you?!"
Qin Chuo's uncle and two uncles all jumped up from their chairs and pointed at Qin Chuo angrily and cursed. They were all waiting to divide Qin Zhenghao's family property. When they heard that Qin Chuo had lost all their property, they became furious on the spot.
Qin Chuo slumped in his chair with a pale face, pointed at Bai Wuwu and yelled: "It's him, he set up a trap for me. You look for him, not me."
"Chuo'er, you - how can you be so confused?!" Qin Liu's face was completely drained of blood, and she pointed at Qin Chuo tremblingly, "You have lost all the Qin family's property. , how can you let your father and eldest brother rest in peace under the Nine Springs? Wow, what can we do about this?"
"Sister, don't panic, things may turn around." Wan Qiuqing comforted her hurriedly.
"Yes, there is still a turning point." Qin Chuo seemed to have seen a life-saving straw, pointing at Bai Wuyuan and yelling: "He promised me that as long as we allow him to participate in the martial arts contest to find a bride, he will return the land deed to me regardless of whether he wins or loses. Bai Wuwen Endless, isn’t it?”
"Yes." Bai Wuwen nodded with a smile, "Bai keeps his word, no matter whether he wins or loses, he will return the land deed. If he regrets even half of it, he will just ask me to strike with five thunderbolts from the sky, and he will die a good death!"
"Did you hear that? Did you hear that? As long as he is allowed to participate in this competition to get married, nothing will happen." Qin Chuo couldn't restrain his joy after hearing Bai Wuwen's promise.
"I understand." Qin Xinru stared at Qin Chuo with cannibalistic eyes, and shouted: "What kind of competition to recruit a bride? What is revenge for my father? It's all a conspiracy that you and Bai Wuwu discussed! Qin Chuo, you are so cruel Ah! You actually colluded with hatred to plot against your own sister, has your conscience been eaten by dogs?"
"It's not your fault!" The words have made it clear. Qin Chuo broke the jar and bit anyone who caught him. He stared at Qin Xinru and scolded: "It's not that I blame you for being cold-blooded and ruthless. He killed Bai Qingqing on the island. He has already I knelt down and kowtowed to you to apologize, but you still refused to let him go and brutally killed him! If you hadn't insisted on your own way, would the Bai family have a blood feud with us? Qin Xinru, you are the culprit!"
"He deserves to die!" Qin Xinru's eyes were cold and she didn't regret killing Bai Wuqing at all.
"is not it--"
"Shut up!" Qin Chuo wanted to say something, but Qin Xinru stopped him, with a panic look on her face.
"Tch!" Qin Chuo curled his lips and snorted, but said no more.
"Stop!" Bai Wuwen shouted impatiently, looking at the Qin family members, and asked: "Tell me, can I participate in this competition to recruit a bride now?"
Qin Chuo's uncle, third uncle, and fourth uncle all avoided looking at Bai Wuyuan. They coughed twice to hide their embarrassment and sat back in their chairs.
Silence means agreement.
Qin Liushi was silent, Qin Chuo was silent, Qin Xinru opened her mouth to say something, but Qin Chuo choked the words that came to her mouth with a slight cough, so she lowered her head and remained silent.
The terrible silence pressed on Qin Rulan like a mountain, making her unable to breathe. Her body was curled up in the chair, like a stray cat being soaked by the violent storm, and her whole body was cold.
Have to tremble.
She knew she had been abandoned.
For the sake of profit, all her relatives abandoned her, even her sister who loved her most——
Thinking of her sister, Qin Rulan's trembling body suddenly trembled. Thinking of her sister's promise last night, she looked at Qin Xinru with tears in her eyes and begged humbly like a pitiful creature: "Sister, save me! Save me!"
Hearing Qin Rulan's cry for help, Qin Xinru's heart ached like a knife. She shook her head painfully at Qin Rulan and said, "It's useless for me to object alone. Don't worry, my sister will definitely not let you marry the Bai family."
Qin Rulan nodded as if grasping a life-saving straw.
"Light the incense." Bai Wuyuan said to the referee on the edge of the ring. If no one comes on stage to challenge within the time of burning the incense, he will be the leader.
The referee frowned, but after a moment he took out a stick of incense, lit it, and inserted it into the incense altar.
There was a long silence, only the whispers of the crowd in the audience. The incense burned little by little until two-thirds of it was burned and no one came on stage to challenge.
Bai Wuwu stood on the stage calmly and calmly, wearing a bright red groom's uniform that was eye-catching.
"How come no one comes up to challenge? Is the Bai family so powerful in your Baiyun City? No one dares to provoke them." Niu Dawa asked Zhou Jianlai and Qi Ronger.
"It's not that no one dares to mess with the Bai family, it's that no one dares to challenge Bai Wuwu. Bai Wuwu is very strong and his methods are extremely cruel. The way he dealt with Xu Murong just now was considered kind." Zhou Jianlai said in a solemn voice, "He is kind He wields two scimitars and likes carving skills the most. Anyone who dies in his hands will have his flesh and bones cut with his scimitars, carved into a living work of art, and then destroyed and beheaded. He is five years older than Su Mou. He is no longer considered a young generation, otherwise the title of the number one prodigy of the young generation in Baiyun City would have nothing to do with Su Mou."
Regarding Xu Murong's tragic end, Zhou Jianlai had nothing to say except heartache. Tooth for tooth, the world has always been so cruel.
"You mean Su Mou can't beat him?" Niu Dawa said in surprise.
"I don't know." Zhou Jianlai shook his head and said, "It's been a long time since the two of them showed their strongest combat power in public view. It's impossible to determine which one of them is stronger and which one is weaker."
"The incense is almost finished." Zhang Xiaozhu frowned and couldn't help but worry about Qin Rulan.
"Aren't you three going to be heroes and save the beauty?" Qi Yoyo asked with a smile.
"Don't go!" Qi Ronger vetoed it and said, "It's not that I don't sympathize with Second Miss Qin, but Bai Wuwen is too terrifying. If you win, it's okay, but if you lose, you will either die or be disabled. I think. Thinking about Xu Murong's fate, can you bear it? To put it a step back, even if Bai Wuyuan wins the leadership, he may not be able to marry Miss Qin Er. Don't forget that there is also a condition of killing a hundred thousand big-toothed dogs. This It’s not something ordinary people can do.”
"But what if he does it?" Zhang Xiaozhu said.
"Then - then it's Miss Qin's bad luck." Qi Ronger said.
"Go if you want, see what I do?" Qi Yoyo noticed that Zhang Xiaozu glanced at her from the corner of his eyes from time to time, and gave Zhang Xiaozu a white look with a smile.
"The second young lady is kind to me. If she hadn't given me a bottle of Xugushengji Pills, I wouldn't be where I am today. I just want to help her tide over the difficulties and have no other thoughts." Zhang Xiaozhu explained.
"I know." Qi Yoyo responded, "But you can wait a little longer. My mother won't ignore it."
"Oh, yes. How could I forget about my aunt?" Zhang Xiaozhu smiled and scratched his head. Wan Qiuqing's presence made him feel more at ease.
Seeing that the stick of incense was about to burn out and no one came on stage to challenge, Qin Xinru was so anxious that she grabbed Su Mou's hand and begged in a low voice: "Second brother, please help Ru Lan."
"Are you sure?" Su Mou asked.
"——" Qin Xinru suddenly fell silent. After a fierce battle in her heart, she nodded to Su Mou and said, "I'm sure!"
Su Mou patted Qin Xinru's hand with his backhand, both as a sign of comfort and as a sign of agreement. An imperceptible joy flashed through his eyes. He looked down at the ring and stood up, just in time to meet Bai Wuwu's gaze.
For some reason, Su Mou suddenly felt a thump in his heart when he met Bai Wuwen's eyes, and then he felt an extremely strong sense of danger. The hair on his body stood on end, as if he was being watched.
Su Mou frowned, and his expression suddenly became serious. He stared at Bai Wuwu's smiling eyes, and his buttocks that had just left the chair actually fell back.
"Second brother?" Qin Xinru looked at Su Mou urgently.
Su Mou glanced at her, then changed his mind and said righteously: "It's ridiculous, I am Ru Lan's brother-in-law. If I go on stage to compete, wouldn't I mess up Gang Chang and make people laugh in the world?! My reputation doesn't matter at all! , but my father regards reputation as life, and even cut off his arm this morning to protect his reputation. As a son of man, how can I bring shame to his old man for thousands of years?! Is your brain burned out?!"
"——" Qin Xinru looked at Su Mou in disbelief. She didn't understand why Su Mou regretted it in the blink of an eye after he had just agreed.
Su Mou didn't look at Qin Xinru. He looked at Bai Wuwu with flickering eyes. In fact, he really wanted to go to the competition. Qin Rulan's Xiaoniaoyiren was exactly the type he liked. It would be a good thing if he could bring her into the golden house.
But the sense of danger that made his hair stand on end made him suddenly smell a conspiracy. There was a vague feeling that Bai Wuwu came not for the Qin family, but for Su Mou.
This made him feel confused, and when he thought about Bai Wuyue's ruthless reputation, he couldn't help but feel timid.
Being timid before fighting is a taboo in martial arts competitions. So he refused without thinking. At the same time, he glanced at Qin Xinru coldly from the corner of his eye, feeling that Qin Xinru seemed to be hiding something from him.
When Qin Rulan heard Su Mou's words, the color drained from her face instantly. Su Mou was her last hope, but in the end, even Su Mou abandoned her.
"Sister-" Qin Rulan made her final struggle.
However, what responded to her was Qin Xinru's silence, a deathly silence, and he didn't even dare to turn his head and look at her.
Qin Rulan smiled miserably, hugged her knees, and shrank her whole body into the chair.
Wan Qiuqing saw that there was only a little incense left, looked at Li Haotian and said, "General Li, don't you want to learn from the brilliant tricks of Baiyun City's heroes?"
The implication was to ask Li Haotian to help the Qin family rescue the siege.
Li Haotian frowned and responded: "I have no feelings for Miss Qin Er."
"I didn't ask you to marry her, so just go down and knock this arrogant and domineering guy off the ring." Wan Qiuqing said, "Just do this as a favor to my wife."
"Okay." Li Haotian nodded slightly reluctantly, picked up the spear standing beside him and stood up.
Zhang Xiaozu and others in the distance breathed a sigh of relief when they saw Li Haotian getting up. There is no doubt about Li Haotian's power. His shots are more stable than those of the three of them.
Thumb thump thump——
However, just as Li Haotian was about to jump off the high platform, he saw a lame hunchback man climbing up the steps of the ring. His steps were so heavy that the wooden steps made a clanging sound with every step. As soon as he stepped on the wooden board, it suddenly dented a lot and made an unbearable squeaking sound.
Thumb thump thump——
This man stepped onto the ring with everyone watching, and everyone gasped in fright when they saw what he looked like.
Lame, hunchbacked, crooked mouth, slanted eyes, and half of his head bald.
