The skill is broken, I am stronger

And the Song clan in South Vietnam seems to have the intention of sending their troops northward to compete in the Central Plains.
The court in the Song Dynasty was fairly stable, and Zhuge Zhengwo led the four famous arresters, and arrested some rioters.
Daming is different. What Zhu ignored before made Daming a little turbulent. The Emperor of Ming set up the East Factory and the West Factory, and those royal children were also quite critical.
Ye Gucheng deliberately challenged Ximen Chuuxue in the Forbidden City this time, with the aim of undermining the prestige of the Ming court, and making Daming mess up too?
Forget it, let's find the two first and ask about the situation before we talk.
Anyway, there are still a few days before the night of the full fifteenth month, so he is not in a hurry.
It just so happened that at this time, some friends could be asked to investigate the whereabouts of Ximen Chuuxue and Ye Gucheng. Regardless of whether the persuasion was successful or not, he still wanted to persuade them.
Lu Xiaofeng continued to drink flower wine, Lin Lang left Piaoxiang Pavilion, but did not return to the Commander of Jinyiwei, but came to Yinhook Casino.
Shopkeeper Liu from Yinhook Gambling Square in the capital immediately came up to greet him: "My lord, come and take a look, do you have something to explain?"
Did he know that Lord Lin never liked to gamble.
Just like the Flying Jade Tiger back then, those who run a gambling shop don't like to gamble, because they will definitely win if they don't gamble, and they may lose if they gamble.
In fact, how did he know that Lin Lang didn't gamble at all, but when he came that day, shopkeeper Liu asked Lin Lang: "How much do you gamble, sir?"
Lin Lang could only say that he didn't gamble, he didn't like fighting men with guns.
"Is the duel between Ye Gucheng and Ximen Chuuxue out?"
Shopkeeper Liu nodded: "It's open. Currently, Ye Gucheng pays [-] for [-], and Ximen Chuuxue pays [-] for [-]."
"My lord, everyone thinks that Ye Gucheng is not far away. If he came from Feixian Island to Daming to challenge Ximen Chuuxue, it must be a breakthrough in his swordsmanship."
"Besides, he chose to fight at the top of the Forbidden City, and he is full of confidence. The Feixian swordsmanship is also famous. It is said that it is not weaker than the hero Yan Nantian's sword art, so most people in the world are optimistic about Ye Gucheng. "
"Ximen Chuuxue hasn't had much record recently, so he's definitely not as good as Ye Gucheng."
Lin Lang asked back: "The odds are too low, can it attract people to bet?"
Ye Gucheng's is not bad, at least double the profit if he wins, but Ximen Chuuxue's profit is too little, how many people will buy it?
All gamblers want to get rich, and they are obviously not interested in earning less.
In the past, when Lin Lang made money from those Jiang Hu people, he had to kill them, and then send someone to ransack their homes, which was too troublesome.
How about letting them take out the money and send it to him?
And it's not just the Jianghu people, many of those wealthy households also have the habit of gambling, even if they don't, can they bear it when they see the extremely high odds?
Shopkeeper Liu explained: "My lord, these are the odds we calculated after analyzing the news from the world, so as to ensure that we will not lose money. However, there are not many people who buy it, because no one knows who is stronger between the two." .”
Those who open a gambling shop don't need a particularly high profit margin. As long as it is [-]%, even if it is half, they can make a lot of money by relying on a large number of bets.
Lin Lang waved his hand: "I didn't say you did something wrong, but the odds need to be adjusted to the highest, so as to attract more people to bet, and only in this way can we make a lot of money."
Shopkeeper Liu frowned slightly: "My lord, if we adjust it up again, I'm afraid we won't be able to make any money, or even lose money."
"Will I let Yinhook Casino lose money?" Lin Lang glanced at Shopkeeper Liu, "The ones who open now are all Ximen Chuuxue who was killed by Ye Gucheng, or Ye Gucheng who was killed by Ximen Chuuxue, but if the two of them perish together, Or if they were killed by others, do we kill them all?"
Shopkeeper Liu's face was full of disbelief: "How is this possible? We also opened a bet on the same death, one pays five, because no one believes that two peerless swordsmen will die together.".
"It's impossible for them to be killed by others. That's the sword god and sword fairy."
How could it be possible for two peerless swordsmen, the top masters in the world, to be killed by others?
"My lord, are you going to do something to them?" Shopkeeper Liu asked cautiously.
He really wanted to persuade Lin Lang not to get involved, he would die, but he also knew that if he said this, the adults would be furious, and I'm afraid he would die first.
Lin Lang said with a straight face: "I am the commander of Jinyiwei, responsible for managing the affairs of the Jianghu. It's fine if they want to duel in other places, and they have to come to the top of the Forbidden City. This is not giving me face."
"So I decided to kill one of them first to completely resolve this dispute."
"Now you can adjust the handicap, as high as you can, and attract more people to bet. The same is true for other semicolons. This is a good opportunity to make a lot of money."
Unlike other places, gambling houses never care about fishing in the dry lake, because those gamblers will always find a way to get money again, and there will always be new gamblers appearing.
The feeling of getting something for nothing is really intoxicating. After winning once, you can never quit.
"Now you have released the news that Ximen Chuuxue is already in the realm of heaven and man, and his swordsmanship has already broken through to a new level. Therefore, if you increase the odds of Ye Gucheng during this period, let's pay ten for one."
Shopkeeper Liu was taken aback: "My lord, this is going to offend Ye Gucheng."
And everyone knows that Ximen Chuuxue is stronger, and Ye Gucheng has high odds, so no one will bet on it, right?
"Don't worry, take a gamble, I bet he won't come to make trouble, but will use other methods to prove his strength." Lin Lang patted shopkeeper Liu on the shoulder, as if he didn't have to worry.
Shopkeeper Liu trembled. Although he was the shopkeeper of the gambling shop, he was unwilling to gamble. Although he won the bet, he could get more money as the shopkeeper at the end of the year, but if he lost the bet, it was his life that was lost.
"Don't worry, things will turn around very soon. If you increase Ximen Chuuxue's odds at that time, you will definitely make a lot of money."
"Good, be obedient."
Lin Lang was smiling when he said that, but shopkeeper Liu was frightened and anxious.
"It's up to the adults to decide."
Anyway, this Silver Hook Gambling House belongs to the adults, so whatever the adults say, it should be.
……
In a restaurant in the capital, many people from the rivers and lakes are discussing the duel between Ximen Chuuxue and Ye Gucheng.
"I heard that Ximen Chuuxue is a super master in the Heaven-Human Realm. I heard that he even defeated the right envoy of the Sun Moon God Sect. He will definitely win this time."
"Huh? Ximen Chuuxue defeated the right envoy of the Sun Moon God Sect? And this thing?"
The right envoy of the Sun Moon Sect led people to destroy the Northern Shaolin that has been passed down for thousands of years, and it is said that he has already broken through to the realm of heaven and man. Is this Ximen Chuuxue so strong?
"Why are you lying to me? You can go to Yinhook Gambling House to have a look. Ximen Chuuxue's winning odds have been adjusted to 21 to [-], and Ye Gucheng's odds have been adjusted to [-] to [-]."
Many people have heard it, not only the people in the Jianghu, but also some wealthy households who like to gamble, and they all remember this odds.
In a box on the second floor, Ye Gucheng, who was dressed in white, was discussing the detailed plan with the people of Pingnan Palace, and frowned immediately after hearing what the people downstairs said.
He was underestimated?
Ximen Chuuxue is a heaven and man, isn't he?
It seems that tonight, it is necessary to do something to let the world know how strong his swordsmanship is, so that it will not affect the plan.
Ye Gucheng quickly explained a few words to the people in Pingnan Palace, the other party got up and left, and he continued to sit in the room drinking wine.
That night, Ye Gucheng appeared at the gate of the palace.
Wei Ziyun, the commander of the Jinwu Guard, saw a figure in white clothes approaching with a sword, and immediately asked, "Who is it? This is the palace chief, leave immediately, or I will take you down!"
"Feixian Island, Baiyun City, Ye Gu City."
As soon as the words fell, a sword qi slashed down, Wei Ziyun's eyes were full of horror, and when the sword light disappeared, the person also disappeared.
He turned his head and looked aside with difficulty. On the palace wall, there was a terrifying sword mark several feet long.
Ye Gucheng is definitely in the realm of heaven and man, what is he going to do?Demonstration?
The next day, the news of Ye Gucheng's night visits to the palace spread like wildfire. Many people saw the sword marks on the palace wall, and they all knew that Ye Gucheng's sword skills were terrifying.
At this time, they suddenly thought of the handicap of the Silver Hook Casino, and rushed over one by one.
Ye Gucheng's swordsmanship is so strong, who can stop it, if you pay ten, you will earn if you buy it, and you will definitely make a fortune.
There was a long queue at the gate of Silver Hook Casino.
After Lin Lang heard the news, he smiled slightly: "It's not enough, let's give those gamblers good news and let them take out all their wives!"
Chapter 268 Randomly Pick a Lucky One and Kill Jitian
"My lord, there are very many people who bought Ye Gucheng and won. If Ye Gucheng really wins, we will pay at least 300 million taels." Shopkeeper Liu's face was full of worry, which meant that the other semicolons got the news a little later , otherwise the loss will definitely be more.
"My lord, do you want to adjust the odds back immediately?"
Lin Lang was very dissatisfied: "That's all?"
Losing 300 million taels, so the bet on buying Ye Gucheng is only more than 30 taels?
Are there so few greedy people?Are all gamblers so calm?
Shopkeeper Liu was stunned, and felt that the compensation of 300 million taels was too little, and the profit of the Silver Hook Casino for a year was lost this time.
"Can the odds be adjusted higher?"
Shopkeeper Liu knelt down in front of Lin Lang, "If your lord is not satisfied with me, I can resign from the shopkeeper and go home to farm. I have an [-]-year-old mother and a son who is waiting to be fed. I beg your lord to show you your favor."
Lin Lang: "???"
Shopkeeper Liu is around [-], it's not surprising that there is an old mother in her [-]s, but she also has a son who is waiting to be fed?
Old and strong.
"Whoever wants to kill you, in short, I want more people to bet at Silver Hook Casino, no matter who wins, they will follow."
"You are professional in this area, don't let me down."
"If you can't do this, hum." Lin Lang smiled and patted Shopkeeper Liu on the shoulder.
Shopkeeper Liu raised his head: "My lord, if you just want to get more people to bet, it would be better to lower the odds a little bit, so as to attract real rich people."
Lin Lang also understood that Yinhook Gambling House, as the number one gambling house in the world, offered a price of [-] for [-]. This obviously did not believe that Ye Gucheng could win, so except for some people who wanted to get rich overnight, the others Everyone is watching.
"Okay, you can figure it out. In short, I will make more money this time, so I won't treat you badly."
He decided to add another fire to stimulate those gamblers.
……
When Lu Xiaofeng came out from Piaoxiang Pavilion, he found that many Jianghu people had already come to the capital, and many of them were his friends.
Even though there were many people he didn't know before, once they heard Lu Xiaofeng's name, they were all willing to buy him a drink and take pride in making friends with him.
After all, everyone knows that he, Lu Xiaofeng, is definitely a friend to a friend.
"Lu Daxia, I heard that Ximen Chuuxue married a wife, is it true?" Someone saw Lu Xiaofeng appearing in the restaurant and asked loudly.
Lu Xiaofeng's expression changed, has the news spread?
Obviously Ximen Chuuxue didn't hold a wedding at all, and didn't even invite his friend, how could anyone in the world know?
"I don't know, he didn't buy me a drink anyway." Lu Xiaofeng said casually.
But many people thought about these words. Lu didn't know, not refuted, so it was very likely to be true.
"It seems that the honest monk is really honest. What he said must be true. Ximen Chuuxue has worries, and his sword skills will definitely decline. He will lose."
"Walking around, still drinking, why don't you hurry up and buy Ye Gucheng to win while Silver Hook Gambling Square doesn't react?"
"It's still ten to one in the morning. I heard that the odds have been lowered to two to one. If you go later, I'm afraid it will become twenty to one to 21."... "Ximen Chuuxue's odds have become five to one , do you want to buy some to try?"
"Go and gamble. Silver Hook Gambling has increased the odds to attract you idiots to send money."
In the morning, Silver Hook Casino gave Ye Gucheng odds of [-] to [-] to win?
Lu Xiaofeng felt something was wrong, isn't Lin Lang the big boss of Silver Hook Casino?
Lin Lang knew that Ximen Chuuxue's kendo had regressed, so how could Yinhook Casino offer such high odds for Ye Gucheng's victory?
And didn't Ye Gucheng leave an extremely tyrannical sword mark on the palace wall last night?
"What does Lin Lang want to do? Does he know some secrets?"
Lu Xiaofeng's curiosity arose, so he had to investigate carefully.
Maybe he can ask the honest monk about the situation, and find the traces of Ye Gucheng and Ximen Chuuxue as soon as possible.
He was sure that both of them must have arrived in the capital, but they were just hiding in a place where no one else could find them.
Ximen Chuuxue compares swords with others, and will bathe and burn incense in advance, because Ximen Chuuxue thinks this is a sacred thing.
Ye Gucheng is similar to Ximen Chuuxue, and he must have come to adjust his state in advance.
Ye Gucheng probably went to the Daming Palace to explore the way yesterday. After all, this time the incident was so big, they were also worried about being ambushed by the people of the Ming court. qqnew
They don't care about dozens or even hundreds of people, but what about tens of thousands?
Plus tens of thousands of crossbows?
It is difficult for others to find the traces of the two, but Lu Xiaofeng firmly believes that he will be able to find one of them before the duel.
