Chapter 713: Blessings and Misfortunes
Shi Chongren held his breath upstairs, grabbed the fence tightly with both hands, and stared intently at the ring, except for the cracking sound in the ring, the howling sound of the strong wind, and Hua Shengwei's howl, there was no other sound in the entire arena.
The mind is as calm as a mirror, the wild waves launched by Hua Shengwei are reflected in the sea of knowledge, Jiang Anyi can even clearly feel the original spirit of Hua Shengwei coming with the fierce waves, his hair is flying, his teeth and claws are like an angry dragon.
In an instant, the Yuan Xuan True Qi and the Mingyu True Qi merged into a single force, and shot out in a spiral, and the Yuan Shen attached to the True Qi, like a sharp arrow shooting towards the angry dragon. This kind of primordial spirit fight is very dangerous, the light is a serious injury to the vitality, the meridians are damaged, and the heavy is difficult for the primordial spirit to return to the body, and he goes mad and becomes a madman.
The angry dragon breathed, swept away everything that dared to block in front of him, and the sharp arrow did not return, piercing the mouth of the angry dragon's breath. When the strong and the strong meet, the only way to fight to the death is to fight, Jiang Anyi felt that the primordial spirit attached to the true qi was hit by a heavy hammer one after another, and the soul body was fluttering, and the soul could be scattered if he was not merciful.
Hua Shengwei was horrified to find that Jiang Anyi's true qi was like a high-speed spinning drill, breaking through his true qi and attacking the heart of the angry dragon, if he was shot by a sharp arrow, he would have to shed his skin if he didn't die. Hua Shengwei controlled the height of the true qi to gather, condensing into an indestructible pillar of qi to counteract the sharp arrows.
Sharp arrows were everywhere, the air pillars broke, and the screaming air snakes scattered and fled, and the air snakes hit the wooden planks of the ring, and the sawdust splashed. The pillar of qi quickly collapsed, Hua Shengwei roared angrily, retreating again and again, and constantly generating new pillars of qi in front of him, hoping to exhaust Jiang Anyi's qi arrows. At the moment, he didn't want to win, he just wanted to take a breath and jump out of the ring.
The old qi is not exhausted and the new qi is born again, Jiang Anyi has a smile on the corner of his mouth, the yin and yang interaction with Xinfei in the past few days has made Yuan Xuan's true qi toughness increase, and the true qi arrow has maintained the strength and speed of rotation, and in a moment Hua Shengwei will be forced out of the ring.
Hua Shengwei is over seventy years old, and at the age of 24, he has been wandering the rivers and lakes for nearly 50 years, and he has experienced thousands of battles in his life, and there are dozens of times when he is at stake. Hua Shengwei no longer hesitated, his body moved to the left, his palms apart to reveal the gap, and Jiang Anyi's sharp arrow stabbed straight into his right chest. With a fierce look on his face, Hua Shengwei struck left and right with both palms, slapped Jiang Anyi's ribs, and fought for his life.
Jiang Anyi's air arrow touched Hua Shengwei's right chest, and the left and right sides were like heavy hammers. It's a pity that Jiang Anyi sighed lightly in his heart, took back the Yuan Shen, and retreated.
"Peng", the heavy hammer clamped off the air arrow, but the front end of the air arrow shot heavily on Hua Shengwei's right chest. Although he tried his best to retreat, the air arrow still brought out a series of crisp sounds, Hua Shengwei's right rib was broken, blood spurted out of his mouth, and he glared at Jiang Anyi who was standing with his hands hanging down resentment, Hua Shengwei couldn't support it, and fell limply towards the ring.
"Grandpa Hua", Bai Qianning ignored her injuries, rushed to the ring, knelt on the ground and hugged Hua Shengwei into her arms. I saw Hua Shengwei's seven orifices bleeding, his face distorted, and the muscles on his face were shaking involuntarily.
"Grandpa Hua", Bai Qian exhaled painfully, and tears fell on the blood stains on Hua Shengwei's face, mottled. Hua Shengwei grinned with difficulty and said, "Ning girl, master...... It's okay, cough cough ......" A large mouthful of blood spurted out with a coughing sound.
Kang Qianfeng jumped on the stage, came to Bai Qianning's side, and persuaded: "Qianning, hurry up and take Grandpa Hua down to heal." ”
Bai Qianning glared at Kang Qianfeng viciously, raised her head and gritted her teeth at Jiang Anyi and said, "The surname Jiang, the blood debt is repaid, and I vow to avenge Grandpa Hua's blood hatred." ”
Master Guangfang on the Qingyun Tower announced loudly: "In the third game, Jiang An will win. In three games, the Jiang family won two wins and one loss. ”
Countless lamentations rang out, sighing for the silver they had lost. Of course, there are also a few people who bet on Jiang Anyi to win with their eyebrows open, Si Feng and others laughed like a flower, and the odds when they bet were six to one, and 20,000 taels of silver became 120,000 taels.
Most of the stewards sent to watch the battle in the major gambling houses were pale, although they bet
Most of the people who win the wind and thunder gate, but the odds of betting on Jiang Jiasheng are too high, and the gambling house is afraid that it will lose a lot of silver after this gambling fight, Xin Fei smiled, she scattered 200,000 taels in the major gambling houses when she lost six, and this Jiang family received more than one million taels, and this business without capital is faster than selling perfume.
Shi Chongren was overjoyed upstairs, if it weren't for Shi Fangzhen, who was about to dance on the side, he bet on three thousand taels of Jiang Anyi to win, with odds of five to one, and a profit of more than 10,000. Shi Fangzhen held back his glance and said: "Jiang Anyi won, why is Ren'er so happy, when did you have such a close relationship with him, as far as I know, you have not been to the yamen since you became the supervisor of Qingtian, and Jiang Anyi has not come to your mansion to visit." ”
Shi Chongren's heart was cold, the heavenly family was selfless, and his father loved him a lot during this time, but his father became suspicious when he showed a little overstep, and he was still not as good as his two brothers in his father's heart.
Laughing on the surface, Shi Chongren said: "The child does not dare to deceive his father, some time ago, the father appointed the child to be the Qingtian superintendent, and there were many gifts in the house, and the child boldly accepted a lot of gifts, and he had a little more money at hand." This time, the Jiang family gambled with Fengleimen, and the child bet three thousand taels of silver in the Jade Fang to bet on Jiang Anyi to win, with odds of five to one, and won more than 10,000 taels. ”
Shi Fangzhen reprimanded: "It's ridiculous, the dignified third prince Luo Huai Wang actually learned to gamble and became a system. ”
"Father's lesson is yes." Shi Chongren replied respectfully, and the joy between his eyebrows and eyes did not decrease. Seeing Shi Chongren's irrepressible joy, Shi Fang's heart softened, he did owe a little to Ren'er, in addition to the prince's expenses on the surface, the queen's secret subsidies were hundreds of thousands; As the king of Chu'an, Jie'er has rewards from time to time, and the Huang family has given him more than 100,000 taels; Only Ren'er has no other income except for 20,000 taels of Yulu and the income from giving land, Liu Guifei is cold by nature, and there is no silver to subsidize him, and when he left the palace at the age of ten, Ren'er suffered a lot. As for the Liu family, Shi Fangzhen snorted coldly in his heart, a group of short-sighted people who tend to be inflammatory, how can my prince be bribed with silver, and immediately passed the decree: "King Luo Huai is loyal and filial, shrewd, sensible, and diligent, and he will be given 20,000 taels of silver, and six eunuchs and palace maids." ”
Shi Chongren looked at his father blankly, this imperial favor came suddenly, he was a little flattered, and forgot to kneel down to thank him. Liu Weiguo reminded softly: "King Luo Huai, don't thank the Holy Grace yet. Only then did Shi Chongren kneel on the ground and say "Thank you, father", and the tears couldn't stop falling, and the feelings of gratitude, grievance, and sadness were mixed in his heart, and he choked up and said no.
Shi Fangzhen motioned for Liu Weiguo to step forward to help his son, looking at Ren'er's face full of admiration, his heart was satisfied, it seems that Ren'er and himself are still very close, but there are usually fewer opportunities for contact, and the father and son will be a little unfamiliar. Thinking that Shi Chongren had just talked about gambling, Shi Fangzhen tilted his head and asked Feng Zhong, "Feng Zhong, didn't you also open a gambling shop?" How many people are betting? ”
Qianjinfang is Feng Zhong's industry, Shi Fangzhen is clear, Feng Zhong didn't dare to hide it, bowed down and said: "The old slave's workshop took a bet of more than 300,000 taels, eighty percent of five is the bet of Lord Jiang, one and a half is almost 60,000 taels, on average, one to five to five, the old slave is afraid that even the twenty draws will be lost this time." Lord Luo Huai has a unique vision and won more than 10,000 taels of silver, which is a leader in the capital. ”
Shi Fangzhen was interested, and said with a smile: "Feng Zhong, you are in charge of the secret guard, who has bet on Jiang Anyi to win?" ”
These are the secrets of the gambling house, Feng Zhong hesitated and said: "As far as the old slave knows, the silver won by Lord Jiang in Beijing is about 800,000 taels, of which Lord Jiang himself bet 200,000 taels, scattered in various gambling houses, the old slave's daughter Fang Lord Jiang gave face, no bet, the odds of the Jiang family bet are one to six, that is to say, in addition to the principal, Lord Jiang earned back one million taels, and removed the tap of twenty draws to get 950,000 taels of silver. ”
Shi Fangzhen said: "Nine hundred and fifty thousand taels, which is worth a year's annual endowment in Shangzhou, Chongren, compared to the little silver you won when Jiang Qing came." ”
Stone weight
Ren smiled and said: "Father, who doesn't know that Lord Jiang is a golden hand, and the child is just a small fight, but the things that the father and emperor reward the child can't be exchanged for no amount of silver." ”
"Feng Zhong, who else are the 600,000 taels?" Shi Fangzhen asked.
"Long live, the Ningling Mansion secretly sent someone to bet about 400,000 taels, the odds are about one to four, and the other 200,000 taels are scattered bets, and it is impossible to find out who it is for a while." Peers are enemies, this time only Yunshuifang is a family in Changle Fang, and Feng Zhong took the opportunity to take an eye medicine.
Shi Fangzhen was silent, the king of Ningling County was rich and rivaled the country, and there were as many as seven or eight hundred thousand taels of various property in the palace every year, and the emperor and grandson were born, Shi Qingguang made a generous move, and the cumulative expenditure was not less than 500,000 taels. Although he acquiesced to Uncle Wang's accumulation of wealth to show the harmony of the heavenly family, Uncle Wang meant that he was Uncle Wang, and it was probably not a blessing that too much money was in his hands.
Glancing at Shi Chongren beside him, Shi Fangzhen's thought flashed, Ren'er doesn't like government affairs, I might as well let him replace the king of Ningling County. Rich in the palace, Wei'er likes luxury, and will not have to draw from the treasury in the future, and Ren'er can provide Wei'er with money, and brothers can also get along harmoniously.
Bai Qianning hugged Hua Shengwei and got out of the ring, and Kang Qianfeng healed his luck. The internal strength entered Hua Shengwei's body, Kang Qianfeng was taken aback, Hua Shengwei's right meridian was like being burned by fire, scorching and shrinking, and the true qi could not be dredged at all.
Seeing Kang Qianfeng withdraw his hand with a solemn face, Bai Qianning asked anxiously, "How is it?" ”
"The meridians are scorched, the true qi can't be dredged, Grandpa Hua is afraid that ......"
"Hurry up and prepare the carriage, I will take Grandpa Hua to Luoyimen and let Grandpa heal his wounds." Bai Qianning commanded loudly.
Kang Qianfeng frowned, he was ordered by his father to enter Beijing to build momentum for the Wind and Thunder Gate, although he lost to the Jiang family in this competition, the reputation of the Wind and Thunder Gate has been broken, and he has already set up a relationship with the Chu An Palace, if he can make a contribution to the investigation of the military situation, the King of Chu An will fully support the Wind and Thunder Gate to become one of the top ten sects, at this time, if he withdraws his manpower to protect Hua Shengwei and returns to the Yi Gate, everything he has done has come to naught, and he has invisibly offended the King of Chu An.
"Qianning, don't worry, go back to your residence first." Kang Qianfeng wanted to stabilize Bai Qianning and then think of a way.
Bai Qianning hugged Hua Shengwei, glanced at Kang Qianfeng coldly, and said: "Kang Qianfeng, don't be reasonable, I don't want to hinder your great cause of Fengleimen, if you refuse to send someone to send me back to Yimen, I will go to the dart bureau to find someone to escort me, I finally ask you, do you send someone to send me back." ”
Speaking of which, Kang Qianfeng doesn't know where to severity, Fengleimen wants to use King Chu'an to ascend to the throne, but he needs the full help of Luoyimen. He immediately ordered: "Hurry up and set up three carriages, and send twelve people to escort the young lady to Luoyimen." ”
Kang Qianfeng brought 22 people into Beijing this time, and most of them were separated at once, Kang Qianfeng felt that he had done a good job, and the major events in Beijing could not be delayed. Just as he wanted to say a few words to Bai Qianning, Bai Qianning had already hugged Hua Shengwei and left, Kang Qianfeng had to tell Chen Buting with a wry smile, and asked him to accompany the young lady back to Yimen and do a good job of communication.
The wind and thunder gate are bitter and rainy, but the east shed is crowded with people from the rivers and lakes who came to congratulate the Jiang family. The Jiang family became famous in a fight, especially Jiang Anyi's status in the rivers and lakes was suddenly raised to a position on par with the top ten leaders, with Jiang Anyi, Xin Fei, and He Xigui, the three masters, the Jiang family can be regarded as a powerful sect, plus the back of the Jiang family's official mansion, who doesn't want to get acquainted with such a character.
Du Yiyi took Si Feng and others with the arrival of the spring breeze on their faces, and put on a mother-in-law's posture to ask for warmth, Xin Fei saw that the situation was a little chaotic, said a few words to the surrounding Jianghu men, and rode home in a hurry.
Note: There are different statements about whether the odds are calculated according to the time of the bet or the final odds, and I personally think that the fairer way is to calculate according to the time of the bet, which is used here.
