C18 So Gamble
But this time, Pray Lord Zhao was even more shocked than before. The dozen or so Illegal Salt Dealer s he brought along were all in fact, all the leaders of the Illegal Salt Dealer, especially the one who had insulted the Heaven And Earth Meeting, Yu Hong Ling, who was his deputy Pray Lord, and had once intimidated Huai Nan Green Forest with a goose feather blade, his martial arts were also only slightly lower than his own. If Yu Hong Ling really couldn't handle a single move from this young man's side, then wouldn't that be too … It was impossible for him to have restrained Hong Ling with a single move. Thinking to this point, Pray Lord Zhao did not stop him. His left hand lightly stroked his beard and he did not speak.
Seeing this, Yu Hong Ling was secretly happy. Pray Lord Zhao had clearly tacitly agreed to this and without any hesitation, he jumped out and pointed at Hong Tianxiao with his right hand: "My friend, you have quite the manner of speaking. Back when I was in the Huai Nan Green Forest, you brat, you still don't know where you drank your milk."
When Yu Hong Ling said this, all of the Illegal Salt Dealer s immediately began to laugh loudly. Only Pray Lord Zhao remained expressionless, his eyes never leaving Hong Tianxiao's expression. At this time, the girls and tortoises in the Beautiful Whorehouse were all secretly worried for Hong Tianxiao, worried that the Illegal Salt Dealer would harm his life. Especially those girls, when they saw that Hong Tianxiao was so handsome, their hearts jumped non-stop and they couldn't help but peep in his direction.
Hong Tianxiao was not angry at all, he only smiled and said: "I am 22 years old this year, and have been practicing martial arts since I was eight years old. It has been fourteen years since I started practicing martial arts three months ago, and until now, I have not met an opponent.
Even Pray Lord Zhao could not hold back his laughter. In his heart, he started to suspect that he had made a judgement of Hong Tianxiao, could it be that this person was really a young master from a wealthy family, who only learnt a little of his martial arts and did not know his place, but since this person dared to be so confident, then it was likely that his family must be very powerful. Thinking of this, Pray Lord Zhao hastily took a step forward. A few words were whispered into Hong Ling's ears before he retreated.
Although Hong Tianxiao's Nine Suns Divine Skills was not at the level of perfection, it was not far from it. His eyes and ears were naturally extremely sharp, and even though Pray Lord Zhao spoke in Hong Ling's ear with an extremely low voice, Hong Tianxiao was able to hear him clearly. Pray Lord Zhao's intention was to guess that he might be a descendant of an official. He wanted to show mercy to Hong Ling and not harm his life.
Hong Tianxiao rolled his eyes and instantly thought of something. He continued to act dumb and said, "Fighting is a disgrace. You and I are both people of etiquette, how can we be annoyed with such a saint?" In my opinion, how about you bet with me and everyone else to be witnesses? "
These Illegal Salt Dealer s lived on the edge of a blade every day, so naturally, they all liked to gamble together. Now that they heard the word "gamble", all of them couldn't help but become extremely excited, and their eyes shone brightly. Yu Hongling was even more excited. He looked up at the sky and laughed, "Good, it suits your elder's temperament. But, what kind of gambling method would that be?"
"Very simple." Hong Tianxiao slowly stretched out his right hand and withdrew his other four fingers, leaving only a forefinger as he smiled at Hong Lingtong. "My finger is placed here, but I can make a hole in your foot. If I can't, then I will lose, what about it?"
As soon as Hong Tianxiao finished speaking, the entire courtyard went silent. After a long while, earth-shaking laughter filled the entire courtyard. Then, he heard the door of the second and third floors being opened continuously by "Jiyiwaa" sound. It was probably that the clients and girls had already dressed themselves and came out to watch the fun. Even Mao Shiba and Yang Yizhi couldn't help but come out.
"Hahahaha." Yu Hong Ling laughed so hard that he could barely stand up straight. As he laughed, he pointed at Hong Tianxiao's right hand that he had not put down, and said, "You … You mean, with... Use this motionless finger to prick my foot... "It's so funny that I made a hole."
When Mao Shiba heard this, he couldn't help but frown. He turned to Yang Yizhi and asked, "Brother Yang, does your young master really have such a godly consummate skill?" Mao Shiba was thirty-one this year, six years older than Yang Yizhi, and so called a brother.
"This …" Although Yang Yizhi knew that Hong Tianxiao's martial arts were far above his own, he didn't believe that Hong Tianxiao would be able to put his finger in the air and leave a big hole in Illegal Salt Dealer's leg. Hearing that, Yang Yizhi didn't know how to reply and awkwardly stood there.
Seeing that, Mao Shiba even more misunderstood and was worried that Yang Yizhi would not give up, so he laughed and said: "Brother, we will go downstairs now. It's just a few Illegal Salt Dealer s, we are still not worthy enough in our eyes." With that, Mao Shiba held onto his walking stick with one hand and grabbed Yang Yizhi's right hand with the other as he was about to walk down the stairs.
"Exactly, if Brother Yu is ready, then I'll begin." Hong Tianxiao's expression was still the same, calm and collected. Although he was mocked by everyone in the courtyard, he did not show any signs of anger. However, after seeing Hong Tianxiao's expression, Pray Lord Zhao felt a sense of unease.
"I believe him." Just as everyone was still laughing in ridicule, a crisp voice suddenly rang out.
Everyone's laughter stopped as they looked towards the source of the voice. They saw that the person who spoke was a twelve or thirteen year old child. At this moment, he was snuggling close to a thirty year old middle-aged woman.
Hong Tianxiao did not need to think to know that it was Wei Xiaobao, so he lightly nodded his head towards him, and then turned to Pray Lord Zhao: "Pray Lord Zhao, since this child has such good eyes, if I were to win the bet by a fluke, please give this child five hundred silver."
The Qing Gang sold their salt all year round and did not lack money. That Pray Lord Zhao nodded his head and took out two pieces of banknotes from his bosom. He did not know the value of the banknotes, but they were worth at least five hundred taels of silver. Pray Lord Zhao said, "These are a thousand taels of silver. If Little Brother really wins, these two banknotes will belong to that child." After saying that, he gently placed the silver on the table in front of Hong Tianxiao.
"Good, Pray Lord Zhao is truly a straightforward person. Brother Yu, let's start now. Please extend your right foot. " Hong Tianxiao scanned the banknotes, they were really banknotes worth two hundred taels of silver.
With his arms crossed in front of his chest, he nonchalantly took a step forward with his right foot and his eyes facing upwards, not even bothering to look at Hong Tianxiao's fingers. However, the rest of the people in the yard held their breath as they stared at Hong Tianxiao's fingers with wide eyes.
