Panacea Porter

Chapter 1087
The person who grabbed Li Ming was a middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man's attire was a bit wretched, and he looked at Li Ming charmingly. Seeing that Li Ming's attention had been caught, the middle-aged man hurriedly spoke again.

"Brother, how are you? Are you interested in betting? Let's guess who is the No.1 in the selection competition of the City Lord's Mansion."

Li Ming quickly realized that the person in front of him was a gambling stall owner.

This is an industry derived from the selection of the City Lord's Mansion. Every time the selection of the City Lord's Mansion is held, the economy of Yanshan City will be driven to grow by a large amount.

Whether it is the inn industry or the catering industry, it will be full of tourists who come to watch the selection competition of the city lord's mansion.

Similarly, the gambling industry also emerged as the times require.

These gambling stall owners make a living by betting on who is the No. Come and invite Li Ming to place a bet.

"Any recommendations?"

Li Ming smiled noncommittally, expressing his understanding of the behavior of the middle-aged man.

In order to survive these days, they can do whatever they want. They just take advantage of the great opportunity of the city lord's mansion trial to earn some extra money, which is understandable.

"Recommendation? Of course there is. This time, the selection of the City Lord's Mansion can be said to be the most intense ever. Even the seventh-level powerhouses have appeared. Except for one unlucky guy who died accidentally in a three-way area, there are six Seed players, if I guess correctly, the final winner will be contested among these six people."

The middle-aged man said sincerely, but Li Ming had a noncommittal smile on his face.

Just from these words, Li Ming knew that the person in front of him was absolutely unreliable.

The seven seventh-tier powerhouses are well-known in the entire Yanshan City. These seven people are the strongest players competing for No.1 in the selection competition of the City Lord's Mansion. This is also understandable. However, this was before Li Ming appeared. up.

Ever since Li Ming's record spread throughout Yanshan City, everyone believed that he was the most powerful contender for No.1 in the selection of the City Lord's Mansion.

However, in the middle-aged man's mouth, Li Ming's existence was never mentioned. Even the man in white robe who was killed by Li Ming was mentioned, but the middle-aged man just didn't say anything about Li Ming.

As for the reason, it goes without saying that the middle-aged man is killing Li Ming.

If Li Ming bet on other people, it would be tantamount to giving the bet to the middle-aged man for nothing in the end, and the middle-aged man's wishful thinking was very loud.

"How did I hear that there is a rising star in Yanshan City recently, who is so powerful that he can crush the deputy city lord Longyan. You recommended so many strong people who are expected to compete for No. 1. Why is there no such person among them?"

Li Ming asked casually pretending not to know.

When the middle-aged man heard this, the corner of his mouth couldn't help twitching.

However, he seemed to have met many people who had asked similar questions, and he quickly responded: "I also know the person you mentioned, his name is Li Ming, and he is currently in the limelight in Yanshan City, but, You may not know that the rematch of the city lord's mansion selection competition is a melee. Thousands of people are fighting in the arena at the same time. The first and second places are judged according to the order of the fall. Think about it, Li Ming is so popular, how can others Let him go to the end?"

"If my guess is correct, the other six seventh-tier powerhouses will definitely join forces to deal with Li Ming in the rematch. No matter how powerful he is, facing the siege of six enemies, do you think he can have the last laugh?"

"Of course, if you want to bet on Li Ming, it's not impossible, but the odds are much lower. You also know that Li Ming's strength is indeed very strong. It can be said that he is the only one in the selection competition of the City Lord's Mansion. "

The middle-aged man deceived Li Ming repeatedly.

He naturally didn't want Li Ming to bet on Li Ming. Judging from the analysis of these gambling stall owners, the possibility of Li Ming winning the championship is more than [-]%. money.

"So that's the case. It looks like I can't place a bet on this Li Ming."

Li Ming continued to pretend to be in the dark, looking at the gambling stall owner with a half-smile.

The owner of the gambling stall nodded quickly: "Yes, that's it. I personally recommend the woman in red from the human race. Not to mention her strength has reached the middle stage of the seventh order, she is even more proficient in swordsmanship. More importantly, Yes, she looks very handsome, think about it, who would be willing to do anything to such a delicate beauty."

The owner of the gambling stall tried his best to persuade Li Ming, but his words made Li Ming's anger boil.

Naturally, what the gambling stall owner recommended couldn't really be the most popular candidate to win the championship. On the contrary, what he recommended to Li Ming must be the candidate he thought was least likely to win the championship, and he wanted to give Li Ming hope.

This also means that the gambling stall owner is not optimistic about the woman in red.

However, Li Ming also had a relationship with the woman in red. He met her once in the preliminary round of the city lord's mansion selection competition. Although the strength of the woman in red was not the top among the seven, she was still at the upper-middle level. However, the owner of the gambling stall thought that he was the least likely to win the championship. There was only one reason.

That is, the woman in red is the only one from the human race among the seventh-order powerhouses participating.

The gambling stall owner looked down on the woman in red from the bottom of his heart because she was a human being, thinking that it was absolutely impossible for him to win the championship.

How could this not make Li Ming angry.

Li Ming also knew that the human race was weak in the Omon Continent, but he never thought that even such small details, the human race would be treated with prejudice.

"So, do you think the woman in red can win the championship?"

"That's necessary. I can assure you that she is definitely the favorite to win the championship. If you don't believe me, you can ask the bosses of other gambling stalls. They must also recommend the woman in red."

The gambling stall owner replied confidently.

"Okay, then I'll bet on her. However, I have one last question. If I bet with you, if I win, where can I find you? What if you run away with the money?"

"Hahaha!"

Li Ming's question caused the gambling stall owner to laugh.

"Don't worry about this, we can't run away."

"you?"

"You may not know that there are a total of ten gambling stalls near the square where you can place bets, and these ten gambling stalls all belong to one faction. Even if we want to run, they will not agree. To be precise, no matter Whether you win or lose, our gambling booth is just earning a commission, and the real big money will eventually be handed over to the forces behind us."

The entire gambling stalls about the city lord's mansion selection competition are not small vendors running their own houses. These gambling stalls are all subordinates of the same faction. To be precise, their task is to attract people to place bets and earn commissions.

In fact, even these small gambling stall owners are not capable of taking such a big handicap.

"So that's it, who is the force behind your gambling booth?"

Li Ming looked at the owner of the gambling stall, he was quite curious about this.

"This……"

"Here is a 100-yuan eighth-order magic stone, which is also the bet I want to bet. If you don't tell me, then I won't dare to bet. I'm afraid you won't be able to afford it."

Li Ming tossed out a small bag, and the gambling stall owner couldn't help but see two lights in his eyes when he saw this, he was like an old pervert who saw the most beautiful lady in the world, and couldn't move his eyes from the small bag for a long time open sight.

This is a 100-yuan eighth-order magic stone. According to the [-]% commission rate, it is an eighth-level magic stone.

This is an astonishingly large number, which can allow the gambling stall owner to spend a lot of money in Yanshan City for a period of time.

"I said, I said, the force behind us is the Lin family."

The gambling stall owner quickly said that he didn't want to lose Li Ming, a big client.

As for the answer of the gambling stall owner, Li Ming was not surprised.

The corners of Li Ming's lips turned up, showing a sneer. He had already guessed that the faction behind the gambling stall owner was the Lin family.

The reason is very simple, because of the city lord's mansion selection competition, such a handicap happened, obviously it didn't happen once or twice in Yanshan City.

That being the case, this matter is an aboveboard matter, and there is no need to hide it. However, the gambling stall owner was hesitant just now, unwilling to reveal who is behind him. This only shows one problem. This power cannot be seen in the light, otherwise, it is very likely that the business will be affected.

At present, the entire Yanshan City has been reduced to street rats and everyone shouts and beats them. Except for the Lin family, Li Ming can't think of a second answer.

What's more, due to the banning of the Lin family by the City Lord's Mansion and the Inscription Union, the Lin family is now struggling in Yanshan City, and many businesses have been cut off, which also caused the Lin family to be short of money.

In a huge Lin family, there are thousands of mouths to eat and expenses. It seems logical that the Lin family wants to make a fortune by using handicap.

"The Lin family? Hasn't it been banned recently?"

Li Ming looked at the gambling stall owner with a sneer.

The other party works for the Lin family, but they don't know who he is, which is a bit interesting.

If the gambling stall owner knew that Li Ming was the sworn enemy of the forces behind him, he didn't know what kind of mood he would feel.

"Brother, seeing that you are a big client, let me tell you something from the bottom of my heart. The Lin family used to be one of the three major families in Yanshan City anyway. The so-called skinny camel is bigger than a horse. With your little bet, the Lin family And I won't rely on you, besides, we are a regular handicap, if you place a bet, we have to sign an agreement, and there will be no repayment."

The owner of the gambling stall opened his mouth quickly, urging Li Ming to place a bet.
