() Ghost wrestling, to put it bluntly, is an underground boxing match on earth.
However, compared with those underground boxing matches, the rules of ghost fighting are more cruel and ruthless.
It clearly stipulates that no matter what method is used, one party must kill the other party to be considered the winner.
In other words, the two sides in the ghost arena are engaged in a life-and-death contest, using every possible means.
In the previous life, Lei Xingkong had seen several ghost wrestling competitions in a remote county, which left a deep impression on him... At that time, he heard people say that the ghost wrestling competition in Yongdu was the largest in the entire Yong Kingdom.
, but I have never had the opportunity to see it. I didn’t expect that I would “encounter” it when I entered Yongdu in this life.
Seeing Lei Xingkong accept the ghost challenge, Li Chengwu smiled and said: "Okay, it's settled. I'll be waiting for you here tomorrow. We agreed to do it when the bell rings.
"
On the tower of Yongzheng Gate in the inner city, there is a big bell, which is said to be made of meteorites from outside the sky. The sound of ringing the clock is so clear that it can be heard throughout Yongdu and everyone can hear it.
This big bell will strike twice every day, once the sun rises and sets once.
Although Lei Xingkong had just arrived in Beijing, he had heard Zhou Xiaozhi talk about this bell and knew that the sunrise bell was struck when the sunrise was sunset, so he nodded: "Okay!"
After answering, he was not polite and pulled Yu Xiandeng, who was still a little confused, out of the alley quickly.
Li Chengwu signaled to the others to get out of the way, and quietly watched Lei Xingkong and Yu Xiandeng leave.
After they left, one person asked Li Chengwu: "Erlang, are you really going to let these two boys go like this?"
"Since he agreed to fight ghosts, he can naturally let them go." After a slight pause, Li Chengwu glanced at the man and said, "If you don't let them go, can you stop them today?"
The man's face was startled for a moment, and then he moved his lips in a murmur, not daring to say anything more.
Based on Lei Xingkong's performance when he took action, they all knew that they couldn't stop anyone, and if they tried to stop him, they might suffer a loss.
They just let people go, but they didn't feel very angry in their hearts.
The person who was knocked down by Lei Xingkong before asked: "Erlang, what if that kid is just perfunctory? Who knows whether he will come tomorrow?"
Li Chengwu snorted coldly and said: "No, he will definitely come tomorrow." After a slight pause, he explained: "As long as the IOU is still in our hands, that kid will not dare not come, otherwise everything will be dead and everything will be messed up."
Even if Yu Xiandeng gets older, he won't be able to get any favors."
After saying this, several other people understood and couldn't help but feel a little excited.
One of them thought for a while and asked tentatively: "Erlang, just now you told that boy that you can earn back six thousand gold baht in just one ring. This is not right. You only have five hundred gold baht in one fight."
."
Li Chengwu glanced at the man and said impatiently: "With these two country bumpkins, do you really think you can squeeze six thousand gold baht out of them?"
When the man heard this, he immediately nodded and understood.
They had found out Yu Xiandeng's details clearly, and they could not get the six thousand gold baht no matter what. The reason why they kept forcing Yu Xiandeng was not because they really wanted to get the six thousand gold baht, but to force Yu Xianden to participate in the ghost competition.
In Yuhua Pavilion, every ghost fight will be watched by many people, many of whom are dignitaries, businessmen and rich people. They will place bets on both sides of the competition. Often the bet for a ghost fight is as high as one million gold.
Baht, even tens of millions of baht are available, and those who participate in the ghost competition will receive a sum of money regardless of whether they win or lose in the end.
Although this amount of money may not be six thousand gold baht, it is still quite a lot.
Li Chengwu calculated slowly: "Although one game only costs 500 gold baht, the bet of Gui Lei increases with each victory. The second game will be 1,000 gold baht, and the third game may be more than 2,000 gold baht. In addition,
The one thousand gold baht that a person who dies in the ring can receive as a pension, doesn’t that add up to six thousand gold baht?”
After a slight pause, Li Chengwu couldn't help but smile: "Yuhua Pavilion stipulates that those who participate in the ghost competition must have a cultivation level above the second level of Canglongjue. I originally wanted Yu Xian to climb, just for the extra thousand gold baht."
pension, but I didn’t expect to meet that other kid today. Hehe, his cultivation level is not low. I think it won’t be a problem for him to survive two games. Plus the third game and the pension of one thousand gold coins, it will definitely be no less than
Six thousand gold baht, this time we made a profit!"
The other people listened to Li Chengwu's words and thought they made sense. They suddenly became happy and said one after another: "Erlang, in this case, what are you waiting for? Go to Zuixian Tower for a meal immediately!"
Li Chengwu nodded: "Okay, after eating, let's go to Deyuelou to have fun!"
"good!"
Deyuelou is a famous romantic place in Yongdu. Everyone immediately responded with excitement and gathered around Li Chengwu to go to Zuixianlou.
…
Lei Xingkong pulled Yu Xiandeng and quickly walked out of the alley. After a while, he merged into the crowd and left Zuixian Tower far away.
Yu Xiandeng finally came to his senses slowly, grabbed Lei Xingkong with his backhand, and said anxiously: "Akong, why are you so reckless? You will lose your life if you go to Ghost Arena."
Lei Xingkong was in a good mood at this time, smiled slightly and said: "Second brother, don't be anxious, I know it well."
"no……"
Yu Xiandeng raised his voice slightly, and immediately realized that he was on the street, with people coming and going. After thinking about it, he pulled Lei Xingkong aside, lowered his voice and said: "We will go back immediately and tell Li Chengwu, that ghost
If he doesn't beat me, I'll pay him back the six thousand gold baht slowly in the future."
After listening to the second brother's words, Lei Xingkong felt a little funny in his heart. They forced you just to make you fight ghosts. Now you go back and regret it. Are you sure you will agree? Holding back his laughter, Lei Xingkong wanted to tease Yu Xiandeng.
, pretending to be distressed and said: "Second brother, what if Li Chengwu doesn't agree when we go back and retaliate? If not, he will immediately take your IOU and sue the captain's mansion. Aren't you going to be severely punished then?"
Yu Xiandeng's expression changed and became extremely ugly, but then his expression became firm again: "No, this is none of your business. No matter what, I can't let you participate in the ghost competition."
After a slight pause, he forced himself to smile and persuaded: "Akong, my problem is not as big as that surnamed Li said. At most, it is just a small punishment. If not, I still have my father to help me...
...Well, let’s go, let’s put aside the ghost fight thing first when we go back.”
Looking at Yu Xiandeng's childlike round face, Lei Xingkong couldn't help but feel a little moved in his heart.
Although the second brother of the Yu family is not his real brother, he is as good as his real brother. At this time, he can ignore everything and stop him from participating in the ghost competition. This is a sincerity.
After thinking about it, Lei Xingkong put away his thoughts of teasing Yu Xiandeng and said sternly: "Second brother, stop talking. Since I agreed to this ghost challenge, I won't regret it. Don't worry, I will be fine."
"." After a slight pause, he changed the subject and said: "It's you, second brother, you have to explain to me clearly how you owe such a huge debt."
"I……"
Yu Xiandeng looked ashamed and was about to say...
Lei Xingkong waved his hand and saw that there happened to be a refreshment stall on the street. He pulled Yu to sit down and found a place to sit down. Then he said: "Don't worry, second brother, I ate too much just now and my stomach is a little greasy."
, have some tea to clear your mind first, and then you can talk slowly."
After saying that, Lei Xingkong turned his head and ordered two bowls of tea and several snacks from the refreshment stall owner.
The two of them sat down, drank tea and had snacks.
Yu Xiandeng looked ashamed, eating uncomfortably, and looking full of things to say.
Lei Xingkong was unhurried and was amused in his heart. With such an interruption, the second brother of the Yu family who usually liked to act like an "elder brother" was only thinking about "how to pay debts" and was transferred.
