Niu Ba was shocked by the charming aura, and since he was now at a disadvantage, he naturally fell into disgrace. Niu Ba waved his hand and asked everyone to retreat. He bowed in return and asked, "I wonder who the girl is? What do you have to say?" Ding Gu replied proudly from the side: "This is my young master's cousin, and she is also from the restaurant. Owner!"
When Niu Ba heard this, he couldn't help but be startled. He didn't expect Ding Gu to have such a beautiful young cousin. He could tell from the way the two of them walked that they were both highly skilled in martial arts. Niu Ba calmed down and said, "It turns out to be the eldest lady. I wonder what the eldest lady has to say?"
The charming girl gave Niu Ba a cold look and said: "Master Niu, my son caused trouble in my restaurant for no reason, and it's your fault. How can you just condone it?" Niu Ba replied: "Miss, the dog has offended you. , Didn’t we already agree to compensate according to the price? But Ding Shaoxia did not accept it. Instead, he made a request that I cannot accept. I can only solve the dispute by force according to the rules of the world. "
Charming sneered contemptuously and said: "Since we all insist on our own opinions, and you mentioned the rules of the world, I have a suggestion. If we have a melee, there will be a lot of casualties. We have more people than you, so we will not treat you as well. It’s unfair. For the sake of God’s kindness, I hope to use another simpler way to prevent innocent people from suffering. Are you interested in hearing it?”
Niu Ba immediately replied: "Miss, if you have any good suggestions, you might as well speak up!" Charming said: "I don't think it's better than this. We don't want a melee. According to the rules of the rivers and lakes, we will have a martial arts competition to determine the outcome. If we win, you will win in the future. Just follow my orders. If we lose, we will follow your orders. What do you think?" Wu Mei, who had an advantage in the situation, put forward this condition, which undoubtedly gave the gambling house an advantage.
When Niu Ba heard this, he made quick calculations in his mind. He had originally taken advantage of this opportunity to occupy the singing and dancing restaurant, and the charming proposal at this moment was undoubtedly a great temptation for him. If he can win the martial arts competition, he will not only be able to easily get the restaurant, but also get a group of very powerful masters.
Niu Ba sees that Ding Gu and Wu Mei are good at martial arts. If they can be defeated, the power of the gambling house will naturally increase. Dan is also a person who has been around for a long time. Since he dares to make such a suggestion, he is obviously very confident, otherwise she would not be able to put herself in a disadvantageous situation.
Niu Ba was not sure, but he couldn't refuse openly. In this way, you will appear to have no confidence and show weakness to others. If he doesn't agree, the other party will probably bully the minority. If a melee breaks out, the gambling den may be wiped out. Niu Ba then thought about it. If he, Hu Yanping and Ouyang Song were to fight on his side, even if they couldn't win, they could at least draw. He was the boss of a gambling house and was fond of gambling by nature. After a moment of hesitation, he made a decision.
Wang Ba immediately said: "Since the eldest lady made this suggestion, our main reason is that we don't agree. It will make people think that we don't have experts, so we will be underestimated. Then we will compete in three games, and the one who wins two games will be the winner. You see how?"
Wu Mei originally wanted to compete a few more times, so that her side would have a greater chance of winning. But because Rushi and Ruhuaxin were injured one after another, they were unable to fight at the moment. As a result, she, Ding Gu, and Yang Feng were the only three people left in the restaurant who were relatively confident. Ru Ge and others are also good at martial arts, but the stakes are so high that Wu Mei doesn't dare to take risks.
Charming smiled slightly, nodded and said: "I made the suggestion for the competition. It is up to you to decide how many competitions there will be. However, since it is a competition, there is no need to talk about fists, feet, weapons or hidden weapons. Everyone depends on their ability. What do you think?" "
Wu Mei is worried that if she loses, she will naturally use hidden weapons or poisonous skills. Niu Ba had no reason to refuse, so he could only agree. After both parties reached an agreement, they each retreated to discuss.
After a while, Ding Gu came out of the restaurant. Still holding the sword in his hand, he shouted to Niu Ba and others: "Listen, people in the gambling house, any of you come out to challenge me?" Hu Yanping is the left elder of the White Lotus Sect, and his martial arts skills are unfathomable.
Hu Yanping was careless for a moment, and he was naturally resentful of being humiliated by Ding Gu just now. It was just that Niu Ba was present, so it was difficult for him to have an attack. At this moment, he couldn't hold it in any longer, so he took the initiative to ask Niu Ba to fight against Ding Gu. Among the gambling houses, Niu Ba, Hu Yanping, and Ouyang Song have the highest martial arts. For today's competition, they are naturally the most suitable candidates. Niu Ba did not stop him and nodded slightly to express his agreement.
Hu Yanping was overjoyed. He immediately jumped out and quickly came to Ding Gu. He raised his hands and said, "Ding Gu, I was careless last time and lost a move. Now I am seeking revenge from you."
Ding Gu didn't reply and swung his sword towards Hu Yanping. Hu Yanping was shocked. He did not expect that the opponent was very agile and would hit him at will without any warning. Hu Yanping's face darkened, he didn't answer, and swung his knife towards him.
The swords collided, and Wu Meng felt a sharp force surge toward him through the blade.
Wu Meng didn't want to fight head-on and hurriedly took a few steps back. Baili Feng is more than ten years older, so he has naturally practiced martial arts for more than ten years more than him, and is obviously slightly better in terms of internal strength. Both of them noticed this exchange. Baili Feng was secretly happy. Since the other party had concerns, he could take the opportunity to gain the upper hand. Baili Feng immediately swayed and used the light skill that followed him everywhere. In a blink of an eye, he was in front of Wu Meng. He pointed his cane and struck directly at Wu Meng's dantian. Wu Meng was horrified and hurriedly jumped up, high over Baili Feng's head and landed behind him. Only then did Baili Feng realize that he didn't dare to neglect, so he immediately turned around and swept his crutch across.
Wu Meng had just reached behind Bai Lifeng and was about to strike with his sword when he saw the crutch coming towards him. Wu Meng didn't expect Baili Feng to react so quickly, so he had to jump up to avoid it. As soon as Wu Meng's feet landed, he felt a force coming from behind. Wu Meng thought to himself that Baili Feng had also jumped behind him just now. Before Wu Meng could react, he heard a sharp force coming from above his head, and a strong palm force approaching from behind. Wu Meng had no time to think about it, so he had no choice but to jump forward.
As a result, the cane hitting his head was avoided, but the palm force behind him could not be avoided. Wu Meng was hit by Baili Feng's palm wind and flew forward. However, Wu Meng was also a master after all. He flipped forward twice and landed on the ground. Wu Meng hurriedly used his internal strength to secretly check his whole body. Except for a slight injury to his back, there was nothing serious. Normally, Wu Meng might have given up. But today was a matter of life and death for the gambling house, so he had no choice but to give it a try!
Wu Meng calmed down. He already knew that the opponent's skill was slightly better than his own. If he continued to attack, he would definitely lose due to exhaustion of his internal strength over time. Now we can only defend with all our strength, and at least make it a draw, lest the gambling house be at a disadvantage from the beginning. Seeing that he didn't step forward to attack, Baili Feng understood his intention. Baili Feng didn't want to end up in a draw, so he jumped up and attacked Wu Meng. Wu Meng dodged and swung his knife to counterattack. The two fought back and forth for dozens of rounds, but there was still no winner.
Niu Ba, who was watching the battle, had already seen that Wu Meng was slightly weaker than his opponent. Although the two could not tell the difference in a short period of time, Wu Meng was only trying to protect himself. Over time, Wu Meng's internal strength would inevitably be exhausted, and it would be easy for Baili Feng to find his flaws. Niu Ba was anxious, and suddenly frowned, shouting: "Miss Yang, I think it's hard for them to decide the winner at the moment, why not just let it be a draw?"
Of course Yang Xuelian also saw the clues, and Baili Feng only had a slight upper hand. If they want to decide the winner, the two of them may have to fight for a long time. Even if Baili Feng wins, his internal energy will be exhausted. After all, Baili Feng is old. After such a long and fierce battle, he may be exhausted and will never recover in the future. Baili Feng is considered the elder of the Yang family. Yang Xuelian respects him very much, so naturally she doesn't want this. Even if the gambling den cannot be conquered for a while, there will be opportunities in the future.
Niu Ba is also a master of martial arts, so of course he knows the secret. It's just that his subordinates are at a disadvantage after all. If Yang Xuelian sacrifices Baili Feng's martial arts to win a victory and gain an advantage, the subsequent competition will be difficult! Niu Ba had no choice but to take the initiative so that Yang Xuelian could have a step down. Yang Xuelian hesitated, glanced at Yang Xuefeng, and asked for his opinion.
Yang Xuefeng and Baili Feng also have a good relationship, so naturally they don't want anything to happen to Baili Feng. Besides, there are two more games to come, and he is very confident in his sister and his own martial arts. When Yang Xuefeng thought of this, he nodded towards Yang Xuelian. Yang Xuelian understood what her younger brother meant and said to Niu Ba: "In that case, there is really no need to waste too much time. This game is considered a draw!" Although Yang Xuelian admitted that it was a draw, she had the upper hand in terms of momentum. After all, it was a draw. I have a slight advantage here.
Niu Ba naturally knew what he was saying. Although he heard something in Yang Xuelian's words, he couldn't care less about it at the moment. He also didn't want to have a verbal dispute with Yang Xuelian, lest Yang Xuelian regret it. He immediately shouted loudly: "This battle is considered a draw. Shopkeeper of Wuhan University, please step back!" Wu Meng breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, and then attacked with two powerful moves, forcing Baili Feng to take a step back. He hurriedly took the opportunity to turn around and jump up, and in the blink of an eye, he was back next to Niu Ba.
Baili Fengzheng was about to chase after him, but he heard Yang Xuelian shouting loudly from behind: "Uncle Baili Fengshi, there is no need to chase anymore, come back soon." Although Baili Fengshi was an elder, he was still a subordinate. In front of everyone, he must maintain the prestige of the leader Yang Xuelian. Therefore, even though Baili Feng was unwilling to hear Yang Xuelian's cry, he could only obey the order and return.
Yang Xuelian waited for Baili Feng to return to her side, and hurriedly comforted him softly, asking him not to mind. Although Baili Feng was displeased, he couldn't bear to contradict him in public, so he could only remain silent. Nangong Tao immediately said to Yang Xuelian: "Master, it's my turn!" Nangong Tao was a master specially invited by Yang Xuelian. Although his relationship was not as close as that of Baili Feng, he was extremely loyal to Yang Xuelian. Seeing that Baili Feng had not won, he took the initiative to ask for help.
Yang Xuelian also trusted and respected Nangong Tao. After they went to the capital last time, they entrusted all the White Lotus Sect in Jiangnan to Nangong Tao's jurisdiction. Yang Xuelian knew that Nangong Tao's martial arts was comparable to that of Baili Feng. If he fought, at least he would not lose, so he said, "Thank you, Uncle Nangong!" Nangong Tao smiled, immediately came to the front, and shouted to everyone in the gambling house: " Nangong Tao, who among you will challenge me?"
Niu Ba glanced at Lu Song, and Lu Song naturally understood. Then he came to Nangong Tao, bowed his hands, and said, "Junior Lu Song is here to learn from the senior's tricks!" Lu Song was more than ten years younger than Nangong Tao, so he The younger generation thinks of himself. Nangong Tao nodded, indicating for him to take action first. Lu Song said nothing more and struck with a palm. Lu Song had deep internal energy, and suddenly a strong palm force covered Nangong Tao.
Nangong Tao didn't shy away from giving way, and used his inner strength to welcome him with his palms. Their palms met with a snap, and both of them swayed before standing firm. Both of them were shocked. For Lu Song, this was the first time that he couldn't knock the opponent away even though he used all his internal strength. For Nangong Tao, the same is true, and the other person is more than ten years younger than him. Nangong Tao paused for a moment, and then attacked with both palms, slashing and pushing at the same time. Lu Song also used his internal strength to fight tit for tat. The two of them fought quickly, and more than ten moves passed by in an instant, but there was still no winner.
Nangong Tao suddenly shouted "Thunderbolt from the clear sky" and struck directly with his palm, and the wind of his palm became even more fierce. Lu Song didn't dare to be lazy, and hurriedly used all his strength to strike out with his palms, hitting them firmly with both palms. Both of them were immediately shocked and took a few steps back before they stood firm. Nangong Tao looked at Lu Song in surprise for a while, then pulled out a short stick more than three feet long from his waist and hit Lu Song. Lu Song hurriedly dodged to avoid it. At the same time, he took off the iron whip hanging from his waist and swung it to fight back against Nangong Tao.
Although Nangong Tao was old, he was very agile. He jumped to avoid it, and then stabbed him with a stick, and the two were entangled again. But seeing Nangong Tao's exquisite stick skills, Lu Song used all his strength to rival him. Seeing Nangong Shi's stick flying, Lu Song switched to a set of whip techniques to meet them, fighting fiercely against fierceness, and the two of them also fought to a tie. Nangong Tao couldn't fight for a long time. When his stick technique changed, stick shadows suddenly appeared in all directions. Lu Song was horrified and had no choice but to press the bottom of the box to block the stick.
Lu Song then whipped his whip, hitting Wang Feng directly, and the shadows of the whip suddenly appeared one after another. Nangong Tao snorted coldly and waved his stick to block it. The two have been fighting for a long time and are still inseparable. Nangong Tao was a little anxious. After all, he was a senior. If he was accidentally plotted by the other party, where would he put his face? Nangong Tao used his full strength and swung his short stick towards Lu Song. At the same time, the left palm struck quickly and violently. Attack from the top and bottom together.
Lu Song heard the fierce wind of the stick and did not dare to be careless. He also hurriedly used his whip to stop it. At this moment, seeing Nangong Tao's attack with his left palm, he could only raise his palm to greet him. The two palms struck each other again, and the two of them were shocked and flew away again, still unable to tell the difference. Seeing that the two were evenly matched, Yang Xuelian was worried that Nangong Tao was old after all, so she shouted loudly: "Master Niufang, I don't think this can be considered a draw, what do you think?"
Niu Ba naturally saw that Lu Song and Nangong Tao were equally skilled in martial arts, but he was unable to stop them. He had already spoken first just now. If he proposed it again, it would appear that he lacked confidence and would be looked down upon by Yang Xuelian. At this moment, when he heard Yang Xuelian's shouting, he finally let go of his hanging heart. Although Lu Song and Nangong Tao are evenly matched, neither can do anything to the other. But Nangong Tao is a senior in the martial arts world after all, so his experience and internal strength will naturally give him the upper hand. After a long fight, Lu Song can't guarantee that something unexpected will happen.
