Chapter 406: Unexpected Enemy

"What? Are you going to the north of the city?" The man was shocked when he heard that Fang Jinzhi was really going to the north of the city. It was okay to ask him to talk to Fang Jinzhi and introduce the customs to Fang Jinzhi, but if he really went to that magic cave, he

I really don’t dare to go.

"Huh!?" Fang Jinzhi hummed, and immediately the two guards behind him pulled out their sabers. Seeing this posture, the man knew that he had met a strong man, but he was still unwilling to go to the north of the city, and said aggrievedly: "Master,

You have a lot of money, please let the little one go." "I will return your money to you. I have an eighty-year-old mother and a newborn child. I really don't want to die." Seeing this,

With this person's appearance, Fang Jinzhi was surprised that the north of the city was so terrifying, could it make people cry?

But judging from the fact that this person was only in his twenties, and how could he be an eighty-year-old mother, he was probably lying. For such a person, Fang Jinzhi didn't have a good look at all, and coldly snorted: "Huh, why don't you take us with you now?"

Go over and take a look at this devil's cave, or we will send you to the West directly." "Choose one of the two, you choose." After saying that, the guard behind him stepped forward directly and put the sword on the man's neck, no matter how much he struggled,

But all to no avail.

With the shining sword right in front of him, this man no longer dared to show off in front of Fang Jinzhi, and honestly began to lead Fang Jinzhi from the front. Fang Jinzhi saw that this man was still on the right track, so he did not embarrass him, but comforted him: "

You will lead the way as you should. As long as you get to the place and see what you want to see, I will naturally not embarrass you." "When the time comes, if we are satisfied, we will give you more money." The man nodded fearfully.

, said:

"Actually, all I know about the north of the city is what I heard." "Only big businessmen are qualified to enter there, and ordinary people like us are not qualified to enter." Fang Jinzhi narrowed his eyes slightly and asked in a leisurely tone:

"So, you are deceiving us?" "Do you know that if you frame a city lord falsely, you will be put in jail." "No, no, no, I did not deceive the master."

The man hurriedly explained, saying: "The place in the north of the city is indeed a place where filth and evil are hidden, just like the brothel you just saw, in heaven and on earth." "Many girls there were sold from the north of the city."

What?" This time it was Fang Jinzhi's turn to be surprised. He couldn't believe that there were still people forcing good girls into prostitution in Tianjing New City? "Doesn't the city lord care about this kind of thing?"

"Guan?" The man sneered, and then lowered his voice and said: "It is said that the biggest boss behind the scenes in Chengbei is the City Lord." "Just from the monthly income of Chengbei alone, the City Lord can get more than one hundred thousand taels of silver.

." Fang Jinzhi's eyes suddenly widened!

One hundred thousand taels? Monthly?? One million taels of silver income every year!! The annual treasury income of the Song Dynasty does not exceed 8 million taels, but here, Yang Peng can get one million taels per year?

Not only Fang Jinzhi, but also Tian Xing and Wan Chun who were next to him were equally shocked. How could Tianjing New City make so much money? How much should Yang Peng have earned here over the years?

"Take us to the north of the city immediately!!" Fang Jinzhi gasped, looking very urgent. Seeing a corrupt official like Yang Peng getting money, or even losing money himself, made him uncomfortable. He had to see with his own eyes what Yang Peng really was.

He is doing some illegal business so that he can use Yang Peng's money. Is such a person worth relying on? They are very fast. They can reach the north area of ​​the city from the center of the city all the way north. However, when going there

On the way to the north of the city, Fang Jinzhi obviously found that there were far fewer people here than in other areas, and there were not even a few people in sight.

It seemed that the man in front of him was not lying when he described the area in the north of the city. This was indeed a place that frightened the people of Tianjing New City. Soon, Fang Jinzhi arrived at a city surrounded by fences. The entire city seemed to be surrounded by

Surrounded by the people, the situation inside could not be seen from the outside. Fang Jinzhi noticed that there was a gap like a city gate not far away, so he led the guards towards the door. As soon as he arrived at the door, Fang Jinzhi was struck by several people at the door.

Soldiers stopped him.

"Stop, the important area in the north of the city, no idlers are allowed to enter!!" A soldier led by the leader shouted angrily at Fang Jinzhi and others. Fang Jinzhi was about to get angry. The entire Tianjing New City area was a prosperous scene, you could do whatever you wanted.

Walking. But I was blocked here. There must be something fishy here, maybe it was evidence of Yang Peng's corruption. Thinking of this, Fang Jinzhi planned to break in directly. He wanted to see what Yang Peng was playing? Fang Jinzhi

Just as he was about to force his way in, Tian Xing held him back.

Tian Xing quietly winked at Fang Jinzhi, then smiled at the soldiers guarding the door and said, "We are businessmen from Bianjing City. We heard that there is business here, so we came here." "Can you guys do it?"

How about accommodating?" After saying that, Tian Xing took out ten taels of silver from his arms and wanted to hand it to the soldier. But when the soldier saw Queen Ma taking out the silver, he felt as if he was seeing a snake and said angrily: "

What are you doing? Put the money away."

When Fang Jinzhi saw this, the anger on his face suddenly subsided a lot. In any case, the soldiers here can resist the temptation of money, which is not something ordinary people can do. "You said you are businessmen, what evidence do you have?"

The soldier then asked, wanting to see the road guide for Fang Jinzhi and others. Wanchun took out the road guide beside him and handed it to the soldier. After checking it, the soldier nodded and said:

"Sure enough, he is a businessman, you can go in." "But remember, don't make trouble inside, otherwise no matter who you are, I will keep it safe so that you never come back!" With that, he waved his hand and asked the people behind to take it.

The road gave way and Fang Jinzhi entered the city smoothly.

As soon as I entered the city, I found that it was surrounded by a high wall, like a separate city, isolated from the outside world. Not only that, before I even took a quick step forward, I felt that the sky suddenly became dark.

But if you look closely, you will find that there are much fewer lights here than in the outside world, which means there is not enough light here at night. On the streets of this walled city, there are countless shops open on both sides of the streets, but

Unlike the outside world, the shops here only have three floors at their highest.

There were various store names written on it, which made Fang Jinzhi feel dizzy for a while. The people walking here all looked fierce, with fierce looks on their faces, and they were not easy to mess with at first glance. Each of these people were alone.

People rarely move in groups like the outside world. After selecting a target, they will quickly enter the store and will not communicate with each other. This city seems to be two different worlds from the outside world. There are fireworks outside, but here it is.

Infinite Purgatory.

"Let's go in and have a look." Fang Jinzhi was not afraid and directly chose the nearest store to go in, wanting to see what kind of business was being done here. And the signboard of that store clearly read:

Arena!! Fang Jinzhi was just about to enter the arena when he was stopped by the waiter at the door. "Hello, guest, we have a membership system here. If you don't have a member, you are not allowed to enter." "If you want to

To enter, you need to show your membership card." "Membership? Membership card?" Fang Jinzhi had never heard of these things and looked at the waiter with some confusion. Seeing Fang Jinzhi's confused look, the waiter knew that Fang Jinzhi simply

I am not a member here. So I smiled and said, "Sorry, if you are not a member of this store, you can't go in."

Although Fang Jinzhi didn't understand, he had been in the world after all and knew what it was like to join a gang. He looked a little impatient and said: "How can I become your... member?" "We want it now.

Come in and have a look." The waiter still replied very politely: "Sorry, sir, our store implements an internal membership system. You can only become a member of our store with the recommendation of two or more people." "Otherwise, you can't.

I am very sorry to become a member of our store."

When Fang Jinzhi heard this, he immediately became furious. What kind of shabby store is this? It's so troublesome to sign up for a membership. There must be nothing good going on here. "We have to go in and take a look today. Let's see who dares to stop us?"

"As soon as Fang Jinzhi said this, the originally gentle and smiling waiter suddenly turned serious and said, "Guest, please don't mess around, this is not a place for acting wild."

"No one who dares to cause trouble in this place can get out of the walled city alive." After saying that, he looked at Fang Jinzhi with wary eyes. Fang Jinzhi was aroused by the waiter and immediately got a little excited. He took a step forward and planned to go in. But Tian Xing

Seeing that the waiter didn't look like he was lying, he hurriedly stopped Fang Jinzhi, and then said to the waiter: "In that case, let's not go in yet." Fang Jinzhi was dragged away by Tian Xing and Qiuxia, and left helplessly.

of the arena.

After walking a long way, Fang Jinzhi broke away and said, "Why are you stopping us from going in? Are we still afraid of them?" Tian Xing said with a sad look on his face: "Holy girl, you are in Yang Peng's house now.

On the ground, we should not act rashly." "As the saying goes, a strong dragon will not suppress a local snake." "I think Yang Peng is acting out of common sense. Since this is the place he pays attention to, there must be something unusual.

"We'd better be careful."

Qiuxia also advised from the side: "Holy girl, Tianxing is right, we must not be careless." "Since this house is not allowed to enter, then we will go to other places to check." Fang Jinzhi heard this,

Although I was still angry, I didn't have an attack. I just found another shop and walked forward. But just as I walked forward, the same scene happened in this shop.

Fang Jinzhi was stopped by a waiter with a gentle attitude. No matter what, he couldn't go in. Then the second house and the third house. Fang Jinzhi was not able to get what he wanted at any one of them. At this time, the man who was brought in by Fang Jinzhi was

He noticed something unusual and reminded him: "Master, let's not go to those high-rise buildings." "Those places look very well decorated. Let's go to those dilapidated houses."

After being reminded by Zhu Biao, Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly realized something was wrong. The places he went to just now were all very conspicuous shops on the street. None of these shops were lower than three floors, and they were obviously high-end shops. Fang

Jinzhi looked along the street and saw that in the middle of the street, there were some shops composed of dilapidated bungalows. Seeing this scene, Fang Jinzhi suddenly became furious:

"Why didn't you say anything just now? Did you mean to see our joke?" Being stared at by Fang Jinzhi, the man's face suddenly fell and he explained: "Master, this is my first time coming into this place." "Where?

I know these rules, but I just said that the black market is prevalent here, and it is known as the devil's cave." Fang Jinzhi ignored him and was going to find another shop in front to try his luck. Soon, Fang Jinzhi came to a two-story shop.

The store plaque says Colosseum.

The appearance of this store did not look as luxurious as the previous stores. Fang Jinzhi thought that he would not be stopped again this time, so he walked towards the store. But as soon as he reached the door, he was greeted by the waiter again.

Stopped. Fang Jinzhi was about to get angry. These people were just endless, but the waiter's words made him suddenly stop.

"Sir, the scene here is too bloody. Are you sure you want to bring the women in?" The waiter still had a smile on his face, but he didn't ask Fang Jinzhi for another membership. Fang Jinzhi was overjoyed, but before he spoke, Qiu

Xia snorted coldly: "Huh, who are you looking down on? What scene have I never seen before?" After hearing this, the waiter's face did not change his smile, and he still said gently and forcefully: "The villain will not disturb the objectivity.

I’m in high spirits, please treat me as a guest!!”

Fang Jinzhi took the lead and walked into the so-called Colosseum. This time he wanted to take a closer look at what was hidden inside. As soon as he entered the store, he heard a familiar greeting. "Welcome." I saw a row of people standing in the store.

The beauty welcomed Fang Jinzhi with a sweet voice. Before Fang Jinzhi had time to react, a beautiful woman came forward and asked: "Several guests looked a little unfamiliar. Is this the first time to visit our store? Do you need it?

Can I explain our service to the guest?"

Fang Jinzhi was in need of a guide to introduce him to the situation here. Unexpectedly, this person came to his door. "Well, just tell us." "Guests, please follow me." The guide immediately came to his door.

Leading Fang Jinzhi and others to the Beast Fighting Hall.

"Guys, please look, this is the Colosseum." Fang Jinzhi was standing on the second floor. Looking down from a height, he saw a huge open space in the center of the hall on the first floor. Around the open space, there were

There is a high iron fence, which looks like a big iron cage. Around the open space, there are rows of ladder-like seats, and these seats are already full of people at this moment.

Each of these people's faces were flushed and they looked extremely excited. Each of them was holding a piece of paper tightly in their hands, as if they had grasped something special. "Saint, look, there is a lot of blood in that cage."

!" Wan Chun's sharp eyes saw that there were still blood stains on the open space.

Fang Jinzhi didn't speak, but narrowed his eyes slightly. Instead, the beauty behind him smiled and said: "Young master, you are really sharp-eyed. What's inside is the blood donation left in the last battle." "Our Colosseum has a total of

It is divided into two floors, and the upper floor is full of private rooms, where you can clearly see the scene below."

"Below are the ordinary seats and a place for fighting beasts." "The second beast fighting game tonight will be held next. I wonder if you guys plan to go to the first floor or stay on the second floor?" "Second floor.

Floor." Fang Jinzhi directly chose the second floor. Only here could he clearly see everything happening below. "Okay, everyone, follow me. The beast fight is about to begin!!" Fang Jinzhi followed the guide's arrangements.

He got off and slowly sat down under the box.

The box seemed quite spacious, and there was still room for so many people to pour in at once. After everyone sat down, the guide began to talk again: "The so-called Colosseum here is the place between man and beast.

"Fighting." "Since ancient times, only true warriors can capture the most ferocious beasts." "And those who can kill a real ferocious beast can often be famous throughout the ages." "Now people are still singing, "Flying General"

The Legend of Shooting the Tiger.”

"Not only that, Su Shi also personally praised Sun Quan's deeds of shooting tigers." "It means that in order to repay the favor of the prefect, he personally shot tigers and watched Sun Lang." "But these are things we have heard of. Did they happen?

, we don’t know.” “But tonight, we may be able to see the birth of a tiger-crouching hero.” At the end of the sentence, the guide’s voice suddenly became high-pitched, and his face was full of enthusiasm.

But the more Fang Jinzhi listened, the more something was wrong. When he finished listening, he was stunned. What did the guide mean? A tiger-subduing hero? Could it be that this so-called beast fight is a battle between humans and tigers? If so,

Isn’t that man dead?! “Are you saying that what’s going to happen next is a fight between humans and tigers?” “The meaning of your Colosseum is to put humans and tigers in a cage and let them

Fighting each other for your own amusement?"

Fang Jinzhi's voice was a little cold and there was no emotion in it. But the guide still smiled like a flower and said without paying any attention to Fang Jinzhi's tone: "Not only that, for better viewing, our store also specially starved the tigers.

Three days." "In this case, as long as this hungry tiger enters the iron cage, he will never let the people in the iron cage go for food." "This fight between dragons and tigers will definitely be very exciting."

"Sir, the show is about to begin." "Do you want to place a bet? One side is a strong beast fighter, and the other side is a tiger that has been hungry for three days. Which side do you want to bet on?" Fang Jinzhi's expression became more and more complex.

Ugly.

Which side are we going to take? We are going to take all of you beasts into prison and let you have a taste of what it's like to be in this cage. Just when Fang Jinzhi was angry, he heard a voice coming from behind: "I suppress the tiger."

." Fang Jinzhi suddenly turned his head. He wanted to see how that bastard dared to be so inhumane. But as soon as he turned his head, he saw the man who brought them in, holding 5 taels of silver in his hand and looking towards the guide with excitement.

said.

The guide looked at the man and smiled, then took the silver and said sweetly: "Please wait a minute, sir." Fang Jinzhi saw the guide holding the silver and turned around to walk towards the plate. The man next to him rubbed his hands in excitement. Fang Jinzhi

There was silence for a moment. These people didn't care about the life or death of the person in the cage. In their eyes, this was just a performance. It didn't matter even if the person died, they could even get more from that person's body.

The benefits. Not long after, the guide came back with a note and said:

"Sir, this is your bet certificate, please keep it safe." The man read the note, showing the same expression as the audience below, excited and expectant.

At this time, Fang Jinzhi suddenly asked: "Has the city owner also bought shares in your Colosseum?" "Of course, the city owner has shares in all the shops in this walled city." The guide answered matter-of-factly.

Said: "Without the support of the City Lord, no one dares to open a shop here." "Speaking of which, without the City Lord's nod, no one can open a shop here!" Fang Jinzhi took a deep breath, and this time the truth was revealed.

Well, the source of everything pointed to the city lord, Yang Peng. Just when Fang Jinzhi wanted to ask again, the guide next to him exclaimed:

"Look, it's about to start." Fang Jinzhi also began to concentrate at this time and looked down the court. The first person below saw a middle-aged man coming out of the factory, wearing light clothes and a thin shirt, shirtless. The bulging arms showed that

Look, this middle-aged man is very strong, with several scars on his face, which makes him look particularly ferocious. He also holds a knife in his hand, but his face is very fierce, looking fierce.

After seeing the man, the guide introduced him: "This man is nicknamed Black Whirlwind. He just appeared on the scene last month and killed a tiger by himself." "To this day, this man has killed two tigers. If today, he has killed two tigers."

Kill one, and he will break the record of the Colosseum and become the new generation of beast king." The guide's expression was particularly excited, and it seemed that he had great respect for the man below.

"Black whirlwind!!" "Black whirlwind, invincible!!" Not only the guide, but also many of the audience present were supporters of this black whirlwind. They kept shouting the name of black whirlwind in the venue. Fang Jinzhi also moved his eyes slightly.

, this man is so brave, if he can be allowed to join the army, he will definitely be a fierce general on the battlefield in the future.

"Roar!!" Just as Fang Jinzhi was thinking, a shocking roar spread throughout the Colosseum. Only a giant beast was seen, placed in a cage, and slowly pushed into the arena by several big men.

When the giant beast was pushed to the center of the field, everyone realized that the giant beast must be at least three feet tall.

"Roar, roar!!" The giant beast kept pacing in the cage, roaring angrily at everyone present. As the giant beast stretched its body in the cage, its six-foot body made the huge cage seem narrow.

Incomparable. Is this still a tiger?

Everyone has been to the Colosseum for so long, but they have never seen such a huge tiger. Standing in front of the tiger, Black Whirlwind's tall body looked frail. This tiger should be the Siberian tiger. As the largest tiger in the world, it is only the largest tiger in the world.

The Siberian tiger can have such a majestic body. This Siberian tiger kept beating the cage angrily with its paws, looking at the crowd around it. The audience, after being swept by its green eyes, felt like they were suffocating.

.

If the black whirlwind just now made people feel excited, then this giant tiger made people despair. Even the black whirlwind, which had already killed two tigers, felt anxious when seeing this tiger. But thinking about it

Due to his identity, Black Tornado knew that he had no way out and could only fight to the death.

"Come on, Black Tornado, kill this tiger. Whether I can make a fortune or not depends entirely on you." "Black Tornado, invincible!!"

At this time, the audience in the stands began to gradually recover and cheered for Black Tornado. Many people came here for this tiger-fighting man, hoping to make a fortune. Give it a try and turn their bicycles into motorcycles.

Every time the odds are set in the Colosseum, the odds of beasts eating humans are usually low, but the odds of humans killing beasts are very high.

It's the same this time. The odds of beasts eating humans have been directly raised to 3 times. For gamblers, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. As long as the Black Tornado wins, they will make a fortune. Almost everyone's bets are

It was pressed against Black Tornado. Even if they saw the ferocity of the tiger now, they still had hope for Black Tornado. They didn't care about Black Tornado's life or death, but they did care about Black Tornado's victory or defeat. "Bang." As the cage opened, Dou Du

The beast officially begins!

What happened after all? Let’s look at the breakdown next time.
