This is a famous entertainment venue in Kyushu City, and it is famous partly because of the long history of this racecourse, and partly because it belongs to the Webster family.
The establishment of this racecourse can be traced back hundreds of years. At that time, the security guards of Kyushu City were all knights in the true sense. They rode tall horses and patrolled the streets with spears in hand.
As the prime minister's family, the Webster family owned the largest cavalry regiment of that era because they controlled the federal security system.
Therefore, this racecourse was originally where the Webster family trained the security cavalry. Every security officer was trained by the Webster family here before taking a job in the Sheriff's Department.
However, with the advent of a new era, thermal weapons have quietly taken away the glory of the knights, and the emergence of electric vehicles has squeezed out the last space for the existence of the cavalry.
The security guards no longer patrol the streets on tall horses, but ride in cars with revolvers strapped to their waists.
After the western suburbs training ground here lost its original function, it was converted into a racecourse by the Webster family. It became a tourist place in Kyushu City where you can remember the history through horse racing. After recent development, this
At that time, the western suburbs racecourse had become a comprehensive entertainment destination.
Mozhi was currently sitting on an outdoor seat in a cold drink shop outside the western suburbs racecourse.
He didn't dare to let Peter Parker drive him there in a big way, but took a rickshaw, arrived quietly and ordered a glass of juice, tasting it slowly while using his contract ability to read the surrounding Ironborn's names.
memory.
He quickly pieced together the above historical information about the western suburbs racecourse from the impressions of these ordinary citizens.
Regarding the assassination of himself at the Western Suburbs Racecourse, he felt that it was necessary to personally investigate the truth. After all, at this time, he was already a semi-spiritual strong man, and his abilities had increased by leaps and bounds. Many of his original worries
There is no need to take it too seriously.
This western suburbs racecourse is indeed majestic, a bit similar to the open-air circus in the previous life, but the scale is many times larger than the latter, and the flow of vehicles and people coming in and out is endless. It is indeed a prosperous place in the capital of Kyushu.
.
He looked at the time, drank the juice in the cup, and looked around at the crowds of people coming in and out. Finally, he set his sights on a man wearing a linen undershirt.
This man is tall and has tanned skin, but his skin is slightly lighter because he often wears a towel on his neck. He is obviously a rickshaw puller.
However, there was no rickshaw parked next to this rickshaw driver at this time, and he had no intention of pulling work. Instead, he was pacing back and forth in the wide area in front of the racecourse in the western suburbs. His face was sometimes ferocious and sometimes hesitant, as if he had something on his mind.
Li Feng has been standing at the gate of the western suburbs racecourse for half an hour.
He still couldn't muster the courage to step through the door
He was originally an ordinary rickshaw puller. He had a wife who was not beautiful but was hard-working and took care of the family. He also had two lovely children, a son and a daughter. Although his life was not rich, he could still live a comfortable life.
After more than ten years of hard work to make money from sports cars, he was finally able to buy a small suburban house, which finally settled his life.
The western suburbs racecourse is not far from his home, so he comes here every morning to party, and the first guests are usually guests who stay overnight from this western suburbs racecourse.
He had never been to the Western Suburbs Racecourse before. He had only heard from his companions who were riding around in sports cars that the various consumption here was not low. The small amount of money he earned after a hard day's work might not be enough to order a drink there.
wine.
However, just over a month ago, his life began to undergo huge changes, which was also the beginning of his slide into the abyss.
While chatting, a companion who was hanging out with him showed off that he had made a fortune, and vividly told about a way to make money that Li Feng had never dared to think of before - the casino at the western suburbs racecourse.
Li Feng occasionally played cards, but it was only for spending time with neighbors and friends, and his winnings and losses never exceeded one silver dollar.
He was originally suspicious of his companions' exaggerated pride, but he couldn't stand the brand-new rickshaw in front of him, and the other companions echoed every word, so he finally became more active.
In this way, he asked his companion to show him the way and gain more knowledge.
So, under the leadership of his companions, he immediately spent the 30 copper yuan ticket for the first time and entered the racecourse that he had guarded at the door every day but had never dared to enter.
The companion is obviously a regular visitor here, and is familiar with all the situations there. Like a host, he introduces where the horse betting is next to the racecourse, and will vividly tell the story of the day when a guy won an astronomical amount of gold dollars in a game.
His companion did not take him to bet on horses. He was very responsible and professional and explained to the student Li Feng that the chance of making money by betting on horses was too low. Under the latter's eyes of approval, he finally took him to the casino at the end of the racecourse.
This was the first time Li Feng knew that there were so many fancy ways to gamble.
Moreover, this casino is very bluffing. Those metal sheets that can replace banknotes seem to be no longer real banknotes in the hands of players, but just numerical symbols.
The colorful lights in the casino and the arrogance of spending huge sums of money inside immediately stirred up Li Feng's silent heart.
It seems that this is the real life, a life that was out of reach before.
The companion was familiar with the road and brought Li Feng in through the door.
Li Feng knew how much he weighed, so he couldn't let go of it at the beginning. He just exchanged the change on his body for tokens and followed his companions to get addicted to it.
Even after losing a few silver dollars he had on him, he warned himself that this was a life experience. He immediately ended his first attempt at something new and left the western suburbs racecourse to continue working hard.
.
I just don't know why, but this experience left an indelible impression on him. Every time he thought about it, he seemed to feel that he was a person who had seen the world, and he was instantly superior to others.
After returning home, he showed off his experience in front of his wife and told his wife and children about his experience just as his companions boasted to him.
His wife was a conscientious person, with a look of worry on her face. After Li Feng found out, he comforted her a few words. She just lost a little change, and she would earn it back if she ran around more in the future.
However, what he didn't expect was that Li Feng couldn't get rid of the lustful dogs and horses in the racecourse as if he was addicted to it. But because the tickets were cheap, Li Feng didn't pay too much attention to it. Occasionally he would spend a few copper dollars to take a walk when he had free time.
Take a lap and experience a new life
Until a later time, he won a full two gold dollars as if he had won a lottery for a cost of fifteen copper dollars.
He suddenly felt that the way to make money mentioned by his companion was indeed true, and this unexpected joy made the hard money he had earned over the past ten years not worth mentioning.
After that, it got out of hand.
He plays more and more and goes more and more frequently
However, the Iron God no longer chose to protect him this time, and the unexpected joy left him. When he woke up, not only had he lost all the gold dollars he had won, but he had also lost several months of income.
All lost.
I still have a wife and children to support at home, what should I do?
I feel unwilling to stop here. That’s a few months’ income, and as long as luck favors me one more time, I can make back my money or even turn a profit.
If he continues, he also knows that this will be an abyss, and there may be no turning back.
Encouraged by his fellow rickshaw pullers, his sense of luck finally got the best of him, so he secretly mortgaged his family's house to a bank and loaned it out to repay the principal.
If you want to do it, play something big!
At this time, he was struggling with this, and in his pocket was the cash given to him by the bank.
At this moment, a voice suddenly came from his ear:
"Hello!"
Li Feng was suddenly frightened and his body froze. He quickly turned around to look, only to find that there was no one around him.
Until the sound appears again.
"You have to calm down!"
Li Feng was now convinced that he was not hallucinating, but no matter how he turned around to look, he still had no idea where the sound came from.
Further away, there were pedestrians and vehicles coming and going, but obviously no one was talking to him.
"Who are you?" Li Feng whispered in horror: "Where are you?"
"Can you hear me?"
"Haha." Laughter rang out, and Li Feng could hear it clearly this time. The voice sounded very young.
"I am the one who saves you!"
"Save my people?" Li Feng blurted out in a tone of surprise, but found that his voice seemed to be too loud, so he quickly covered his mouth and lowered his voice:
"who are you?"
"I told you I was the one who saved you." There was a hint of mockery in his voice: "If you don't want to regret it, you'd better give up your original thoughts and listen to me from now on."
"Listen to you."
The voice came again, with a very firm tone: "Yes, listen to me! If you step into this threshold, I guarantee that you will regret it more tomorrow than you did today."
"You are. Are you trying to persuade me not to go in?" Li Feng finally understood what the other party wanted to do, and gradually calmed down, but his tone was still suspicious: "Why can you talk to me? Where are you?"
The tone of the voice was a little impatient: "I am in heaven."
Li Feng immediately looked up and saw a dazzling sun hanging in the blue sky. The strong light immediately stung his eyes.
Lowering his head, closing his eyes and thinking for a moment, Li Feng understood that the other party was teasing him, and that this person was obviously not a being that he could understand.
From the other party's tone, Li Feng still understood the other party's intention to stop him. At this time, after this sudden interruption, his original idea of going all out was cooled down and he regained some sense.
After some frightening thinking, Li Feng asked tentatively: "Are you? Are you a god? The God of Iron?"
"Oh~~ If you don't think so, then let it be! However, I am not the Iron God, I am the Evil God! Do you understand?"
"Evil God!" Li Feng almost sat down on the ground after hearing this.
"Hehehe"
From this laughter, Li Feng immediately understood that the other party not only knew his thoughts, but also paid attention to him at all times. His nerves tightened and he stammered:
"You find me"
The voice seemed to be talking directly to him in his mind: "Give up your stupid idea of going to the casino! I found you because I want you to do something for me. Let's make a deal!"
"You really want to stop me from gambling." Li Feng took a deep breath and thought rapidly in his mind, but he knew very well what he had lost before and said quickly:
"But I lost a lot of money earlier. If I don't win it back, I..."
"Wait until I see how much you lost earlier." The voice chuckled: "90 silver dollars! It turns out that I am still struggling with that 90 silver dollars. Don't worry about that! We are a fair deal. As long as you finish the work for me, I will give it to you.
The chips will be far more than 90 silver dollars."
"You give it to me? Far more than 90 silver dollars?" Li Feng blurted out subconsciously again.
"Well!" There was a trace of certainty in his voice, but his tone was as relaxed as ever: "As long as you do things for me, you don't have to make extremely risky bets with all your family property, and you can win back your capital in another way.
Gold, why not do it?"
This sentence directly spoke to Li Feng's heart.
The reason why he struggled in front of the racetrack for so long was because of the mentality of a gambler who would not give up until he reached the Yellow River. He actually knew how risky what he was going to do would be, but he was not willing to lose 90 silver dollars in vain.
Now, this guy who calls himself the Evil God, who can talk directly in his mind, actually gives him another option - a chance to get back 90 silver dollars.
No, it’s not just 90 silver dollars, the “evil god” said, it’s far more than 90 silver dollars.
The former is to make a bet with all one's own property, so it goes without saying that the risk is big and small.
The latter seems to be more secure. If this "evil god" has other purposes, it will make him worry.
He thought for a while, but couldn't help but ask: "Is there any danger in helping you?"
"It's dangerous, but it's not a big problem, haha." The voice chuckled and said, "Your question is really stupid!"
"The money in your hand is all your property. That money is your life, your family, your wife and your children's future. If you lose it all, you will never be able to recover!"
"To put it bluntly, trading with me is just a bet of only 90 silver dollars! You dare to play such a big bet as before, but you don't dare to bet on my transaction of only 90 silver dollars?"
"Isn't a god who can talk to you directly more worthy of your trust than those turntables, cards, and dice?"
Li Feng was a little confused. He thought about the words "Evil God" carefully several times with his mouth open, and then swallowed: "No, what you said seems to make sense!"
"Haha. Just think about it."
Li Feng took a deep breath, clenched the banknotes in his pocket, and suddenly opened his palms:
"What did you want me to do?"
"That's right. Just listen to my words and act." The voice seemed to have known that he would agree, and said calmly: "In the beverage shop on the right, there is a bag under the second table. You should take it first."
Li Feng turned around and looked at it in a daze, and sure enough he found a white cloth bag. He quickly stepped forward and picked up the bag.
He didn't dare to flip it immediately. He felt the bag with his hands after leaving the beverage shop for a while, and found that it was just an ordinary cloth bag with soft tentacles inside, so it shouldn't be anything scary.
"Just take it and go to the racecourse now."
"Don't be too nervous, just treat it as usual."
"Oh!" Li Feng nodded, took a deep breath to calm down, and walked into the racecourse.
Unexpectedly watching his figure disappear from sight, he couldn't help but smile and shake his head.
At this time, he has left part of the symbol source directly on Li Feng's body. Under the precise control of the contract ability: Manipulation of Consciousness, he can obtain his vision and even five senses by reading Li Feng's instant memory, and can also use
The extremely brief illusion scene conveyed his instructions, which was equivalent to turning the rickshaw driver into a clone puppet who obeyed his orders.
Of course, if necessary, Mu Zhi can even temporarily take over his body and use the talisman left on his body to activate his contract ability.
Presumably the person at the western suburbs racecourse who wanted to lure Holy Son of Hesse here probably didn't expect that he just sent a clone in to find out the truth.
