But first, we have to return to reality and cash out the living expenses for tonight plus tomorrow.
Jiang Xu walked to the front desk and handed all the order sticks in his hand to the boy at the counter.
"Please help me change to Happy Bean, thank you!"
"okay."
The cashier boy agreed and moved his hands, but his eyes were still fixed on the TV on the wall.
Jiang Xu followed his gaze curiously, only to see a video being shown on the TV.
There is a square platform covered with black stalls on one side, and the background is dark, like a void universe.
In the center of this void universe, there is a cubic space built with a stage frame.
The stage frame is covered with spotlights, and the bright lights fall, intersect, and converge, outlining the shadow of a phoenix looking up to the sky and crying.
The phoenix flapped its wings, flew in the air, and swooped down to the center of the stage.
The camera cuts down to reveal a mahjong table and four beauties with charming smiles.
Jiang Xu was pulled back before he could see clearly.
"There are 228,000 points in total. All exchanged for 228 yuan. After deducting 10% of the station fee, I will pay you 205.2. Please keep it."
The cashier boy took out the cash and handed it to Jiang Xu.
"Thanks."
"Hey, what is this?"
Jiang Xu thanked him and pointed at the TV.
"What? You don't even know about the Tenho Battle? Then why are you here to play mahjong? This is one of the top three tournaments in the entire mahjong, and there are not many events in Sakurajima that attract more attention than it."
"Sorry, I just came to Ying Mansion not long ago." Jiang Xu scratched his head and said.
"Oh, I almost forgot. Brother Jiang, you came from the empire. It's normal not to know."
"Yep, it is."
"Then I have to give you popular science. As a male bird warrior, how can you not even know about Tianfeng Zhan!"
The cashier boy looked as enthusiastic as a missionary who sees a passerby interested in his sect.
Before Jiang Xu could refuse, he started talking non-stop.
"The so-called Tenho Battle is the final battlefield for the female professional warriors to compete for the Phoenix throne. There is no female professional warrior in Sakurajima who does not participate. For example, the four currently competing on TV, Queen Miki, Mrs. Akeno, Princess Chiori, Miss Saki. Hehe~hehe~hehe~"
As he spoke, the cashier boy's expression began to waver, and he looked at the screen with a look of obsession.
Is it so beautiful? Jiang Xu couldn't help but look back.
Under the brilliant spotlight.
The four stunning beauties are engrossed in the battle. Some are graceful, some are graceful, some are pretty in pink and white, and some have bright eyes and white teeth. Between their smiles and smiles, they are like spring orchids and autumn chrysanthemums, vying for beauty, making your heart beat faster.
The director of the program may have worked for a local TV station and is very familiar with the little thoughts of LSPs. Before the game started, the camera switched back and forth between the front, side, close, and far faces of the four women.
It is simply a 360-degree beauty attack in all directions.
Say nothing.
Coach, I want to shoot!
Wiping the non-existent saliva from the corner of his mouth, Jiang Xu took out his mobile phone and entered 'Tianfeng Fighting Professional Bird Master', and a lot of pictures and introductions immediately popped up.
I was almost dazzled by the super good looks that can lick the screen. No wonder Sakurajima Mahjong is so popular in this world. It turns out that the promotion strategy is understood clearly. It is strange that it is not popular.
On the TV, as the countdown ended, the mahjong rose and the game officially began.
Snapped!
The first card is taken.
It's a piece of chicken.
Jiang Xu was in a trance, as if he saw a phoenix emerging from the card, flapping its wings, flying in the air, and letting out a high-pitched cry.
"Uh-huh!!!"
Jiang Xu was stunned, shook his head suddenly, and looked closely, only to find that the phoenix was still flying around the card table. Whenever a wisp of white mist-like threads rose from the card table, it would open its beak and swallow it.
"Have you seen anything strange, like a phoenix or something?" Jiang Xu suspected that he was confused from playing mahjong today.
"Phoenix? You're talking about Tianfeng Yuzhang, right?"
Jiang Xu looked in the direction of the cashier's finger and saw a palm-sized, lifelike jade phoenix seal rising from the center of the table. The base was a mahjong and Yaoji tile.
[Tianfeng Yuling: The seeds of thought are gathering, and the fortune is changing. Growth rate -0.52%]
What the hell? ? ?
Why did the painting style suddenly change from everyday style to fantasy style? !
Wait, let me sort this out.
Tianfeng Zhan, a mere women's mahjong competition, has tens of millions of followers, and millions of people are watching the live broadcast online at the same time.
I get it, this is a Mahjong world.
It is quite reasonable for Mahjong with super powers to appear, right?
But the cashier boy continued, "The Tianfeng battle is just a battlefield for female mahjong players. The subsequent mahjong king battle is the top mahjong game. The top mahjong players from all over the world will come to compete for the mahjong throne. That will be beautiful." .”
Jiang Xu felt mahjong, and it seemed that he had really entered a mahjong world.
"Ah, the Bird King Battle, it really attracted a lot of attention. It was originally only a jade medal event. After being selected and supported by Xia Guo, it was promoted to a throne level event, making Sakurajima Mahjong's influence all over the world. There have been great improvements, but that’s just because there are too many types of mahjong in Xia Mainland and the rules can’t be unified at all, so Sakurajima Mahjong takes advantage.”
A bird friend who was about to go out heard their conversation and couldn't help but interject.
"I still like the King of Swords battle the most. That is the event where our Sakurajima can advance to the throne with our own strength."
"Actually, the Koen Battle in baseball is not bad. With the efforts of all Sakurajima residents, it is very promising to become the second throne battle." Another person participated in the discussion.
"There's no hope. Baseball is a Xibo game. It's already great to be promoted to Yuzhang. I'd be thankful if I'm not relegated."
...
As he listened, Jiang Xu felt more and more dizzy, and he had no memory of when he walked out of Quezhuang.
After shaking his head and feeling a little more awake, he took out his cell phone and checked it while walking.
You won’t know if you don’t check, but you’ll be shocked if you check.
Fifty years ago, the East and the West were fighting for hegemony for many years.
Later, the war with live ammunition temporarily subsided, and the soft battlefield in the cultural field had just begun.
Xia's Cuju, martial arts, and Chinese cuisine spread throughout the world during the war.
The Western League’s basketball, boxing, and Western-style cuisine are also popular around the world.
Therefore, competitive events came into being.
With the full support of the two poles of the world, it soon blossomed everywhere and everyone participated.
To this day, countless competitive events have been born, and some have developed, merged, expanded, and become popular, becoming the most watched crown-level top sports events, such as chess and cards, fighting, Olympics, ball games, cooking, e-sports...
Some declined, died out, and became niche projects.
In short, this is an era of great competition in which all people participate.
If you can differentiate between high and low, and the rules are fair, then you can compete!
As long as there is competition and competition, there will be rewards.
The whole world is simply crazy.
Everyone is watching the game, no matter what it is.
This is one where the winner gets everything and wins the world!
Looking back now, Jiang Xu found that clues could be found from many details he saw every day.
For example, billboards on the streets, posters printed on trams, and giant LED boards in bustling high-rise areas often have scrolling screens.
As for the various games that were shown on the TV every night at the landlord's house, he had thought that the other party just had mixed interests, but he didn't expect that they were all games that the whole country paid attention to, and it would be strange not to watch them.
