Rivers and Lakes Records

The anger didn't last long.

In fact, before he returned to the room with a sullen face, he had already realized that his nameless outburst was really unreasonable.

No matter from which direction you look at it, Feng Ji's words, combined with his own situation, are all good intentions.However, because of a momentary unhappiness, he put on a face to others, which is really a bit out of character.

Lu Mingtong resentfully punched the innocent pillow.

It's better not to read so many story books, and start dreaming about the life of heroes after reading too much.

Lu Mingtong sat alone for a while in a low mood, then remembered something, and walked out.

Brother Asuka still has a match, so he went to talk to someone.

When he reached the door, he paused again. As an emissary of the wind and cloud, if he went to him in front of everyone, wouldn't it be a waste of gossip for Brother Shi?He pushed open the door and secretly took a look at Xiao Lang's room. Xiao Lang didn't know what he was busy with, and he never came back. If he didn't come back, Feng Ji would not take the initiative to walk into this courtyard.After Lu Mingtong thought about it, he still asked someone to invite Shi Jingtian over.

Shi Jingtian had just finished practicing martial arts, took a cold shower when he heard Lu Mingtong invite him, he hurriedly wiped his hair, and came over before he had time to take care of his hair.

Lu Mingtong was startled by his hasty look: "Brother Shi, it's nothing serious, your hair is still dry, and you have a game the next day, so be careful if you catch a cold." After that, Lu Douya went to get a dry cloth towel Lai: "Wipe your hair first, let's talk later."

Shi Jingtian took the cloth towel and said, "What do you want Ming Tong to do with me?"

Lu Mingtong said: "Tomorrow's match, I want to ask you what your plans are."

Shi Jingtian has already won two hands in a row and has successfully entered the third round.Tomorrow's match, if he wins the opponent, he will be able to enter the martial arts league smoothly.If you lose... you have to pack up and go home.

Shi Jingtian's face was as usual, and he couldn't see any nervous look: "What else can I do, fight hard, and if you win, you can enter the Wulin League. I heard that the Wulin League has a lot of subsidies, so you don't have to use firewood in the future. I exchanged money, if I can't win... I will go home and be beaten by my father."

When he talked about being beaten, he showed an expression of lingering fear, obviously he had been taught a lot.Lu Mingtong said happily, "I will definitely win, Brother Shi, I have asked Jiu Tian to bet on you to win, and when the result comes out, we will each have half of the money."

Shi Jingtian said: "It's okay, you take it all, and I didn't pay, so there's no reason to share half of it with me."

Lu Mingtong was not very interested in gambling, so he deliberately thought of this move, originally to send money to Shi Jingtian, seeing him evade, he pressed his hand to try to persuade him.

"Brother Shi, although you didn't contribute any money, you did your best! You don't know that many people colluded with those who set up the game and deliberately lost money to cheat money. Of course, I know you would not do this, Brother Shi , so tomorrow you have to fight hard, and if you win this money, we will be half of each other, so you can feel at ease!"

Shi Jingtian was taken aback by his righteous tone, and said in a daze: "Then Mingtong, how much did you... bet?"

Lu Mingtong said generously, "Not much, 500 taels."

The cloth towel in Shi Jingtian's hand hissed, and he died heroically.

Early in the morning of the second day, Lu Mingtong came to the martial arts arena early in a refreshed manner, what is rare is that Feng Ji came earlier than him today.Thinking about what happened yesterday, Lu Mingtong took the initiative to go over and say hello: "Brother Feng."

Feng Ji's movement of shaking his fan froze, he didn't understand why he changed from the leader to the eldest brother again.

Lu Mingtong continued: "Brother Feng, why did you come so early today? I missed your wonderful appearance. What new ideas did you think of today?"

Feng Ji smiled and said: "I thought Ming Tong had lost interest in my way of appearing."

Lu Mingtong said brightly in spring: "Yesterday I was in a bad mood, and after a day's rest, I'm interested again."

Feng Ji raised his eyebrows, the person in front of him had a rosy complexion and a smiling face, how could it be simply a matter of resting.

"What kind of happy event did Mingtong meet?"

"Not anymore." Lu Mingtong sat obediently and looked ahead, turned his eyes to scan the audience, and finally couldn't help asking: "Today there is a competition between Brother Shi, do you know?"

Feng Ji nodded: "That's the sixth match."

Lu Mingtong clenched his fists tightly: "What are his chances of winning against that Gusu Lan?"

"Is Mingtong worried about his friend?" Feng Ji said, "Gusu Lan is good at stick techniques, and he is especially famous for his Heavenly Tribulation stick technique. In the previous games, his potential should not be underestimated, but this game is still worth watching."

Lu Mingtong was not familiar with martial arts, he listened to him explain a lot in an orderly manner, but he seemed to be puzzled by the eminent monk chanting scriptures, so he asked directly: "If it were you, would you bet on which of them would win?"

Feng Ji paused, and immediately guessed what he had done, closed his fan and smiled lightly, nodded his lips and said: "Mingtong also imitated them to bet?"

Lu Mingtong blushed, hesitatingly said: "I'll play along..."

"If it was you, you must bet Shi Jingtian." Feng Ji thought for a while: "How much did you bet?"

Lu Mingtong said: "500 taels."

Feng Ji laughed and said: "Just playing around and betting so much, the Lu family is really rich."

Lu Mingtong didn't have the heart to fight back his teasing anymore, he scratched his heart in anxiety, grabbed him with a puckered face and asked, "Never mind this, in your opinion, can I get my money back?"

When he was in a hurry, there was an intimacy in his tone unconsciously. Feng Ji looked down at his cuffs that were tightly held by Lu Mingtong, thought for a while, and said with a smile: "Since the bet has been made, no matter what the result is , can’t be undone. The matter has come to this point, you might as well change your way of thinking and think about how to make yourself win more if you make the right bet.”

How to let yourself win more?Lu Mingtong was stunned for a moment, and immediately realized that there must be some way in it, and Feng Ji must know it!

"You know how to do it?" Lu Mingtong's eyes widened, and he changed into a firm tone, and concluded: "You know, right? Brother Feng, tell me, let's place a bet together."

Feng Ji shook his fan, but didn't speak.

This person started to show off again, Lu Mingtong's teeth itch.But he had to bow his head to ask for help. He thought for a while and said, "You tell me what to do, and I can also promise you a request. Of course, it can't be too much."

I have already been fooled by myself once, how dare this person throw out the bait?Feng Ji sighed: "No need, I can tell you."

Lu Mingtong came over excitedly.

"Now, the amount of bets on both sides is about the same. Although Gu Sulan is well-known, Shi Jingtian has performed outstandingly in the past two days and has the potential to catch up from behind. Everyone is hesitant to make decisions. This is why this situation is caused. Since you want to bet, Why don't you send someone to the betting place to instigate them, and say that Shi Jingtian's old injuries relapsed in two consecutive battles. The first two times were due to good luck to fool him, and today he is facing the fierce Heavenly Tribulation Stick No way, he has a body of flesh and blood, and he has no power to parry. In this round, he will lose."

"After getting the word out, spend money to hire two people to take the lead in betting on Gusulan. There are not many people who know Shi Jingtian, and the audience is a world of grass. If you incite it like this, most of them will follow to behold Gusulan. People. If Shi Jingtian wins at that time, the side with less bets will naturally earn more."

Lu Mingtong could not close his mouth from ear to ear, and said hello repeatedly.Just about to send Lu Douya to fan the flames, he suddenly realized: "That's not right, if I lose, wouldn't I pay more?"

Feng Ji said: "That's right. There is no perfect way to bet on this kind of thing. I just made a suggestion. As for whether to follow what I said, it all depends on Mingtong himself."

"Shi Jingtian's game is in the sixth game. If you want to go, you'd better hurry up."

Lu Mingtong took two deep breaths, made some calculations, and finally decided to use a painful lesson to curb his undeveloped gambler career.

"Bean Sprouts, do as he says."

When Shi Jingtian came to the stage, the familiar figure on the martial arts viewing platform seemed to be very enthusiastic today, and he smiled and waved to him regardless of the eyes of the surrounding people.

Shi Jingtian's heart warmed up, and he said that Lu Mingtong was worried about whether he could successfully enter the martial arts league, but he didn't know that Lu Mingtong on the stage wiped the sweat from his head, and said to Feng Ji who was on the side: "God bless, brother Shi Can successfully enter the Wulin League to do things. My money will not be wasted."

At the moment when the game ended, Lu Mingtong was more excited than the audience in the audience. He almost couldn't restrain his cheers and jumped up, following the people below to shout out the winner's name.

"Hero Stone! Hero Stone!"

win win win!Lu Mingtong happily wrote down Shi Jingtian's name, and mouthed to the person whom everyone hoped for: "See you later."

Seeing his excitement, Feng Ji couldn't help laughing.Lu Mingtong touched him with his elbow and said, "Hey, Brother Feng, this trick is really effective. Just now, half of the people have switched to Gusulan. When Brother Shi won, I saw half of the people in the audience Your face is all black. Who will you bet on next?"

Feng Ji said: "I've said it before, no one can guess this kind of betting, this time it's a good tone, but I can't guarantee that in the next game, there will be people who think the same as us to provoke the game. So I still advise you, just accept it when you see it."

Lu Ming's small calculations in his heart have already been calculated twice, this time he earned a lot of money, he didn't expect to come to the martial arts conference and there will be unexpected gains, at this moment, what Feng Ji said is pleasing to his ears.

"Okay, then I won't gamble. You have a lot of experience and I will listen to you."

When he went back that day, Lu Mingtong had one more thing - counting money.

Lying on his back on the bed, Lu Mingtong was pointing at the banknotes in his hand one by one, and Lu Douya was looking at it with his head propped up, with puzzled eyes in his eyes: "Master, there are only a few thousand taels of silver banknotes here, why don't you count them back and forth?" So many times?"

Lu Mingtong said: "What do you know, this kind of money that can be obtained without much effort, most of the times will make you feel at ease."

As he spoke, he pulled out half of it: "Leave this to Brother Shi...forget it." Lu Mingtong withdrew his hand, he thought about Shi Jingtian's temper, and said: "If he sees so much money, he will definitely not accept it. Find a way to force him to accept it."

By the way, since the banknotes can't be given out, then don't give so many banknotes!

Lu Mingtong had a plan in his heart, and the more he thought about it, the better it became. Immediately, a carp stood up and said: "Bean sprouts, pack up, let's go out for a while."

Lu Jiutian appeared silently: "Master, take me with you when you go out."

Lu Mingtong said casually: "Okay, both of you follow, and I'll buy some new clothes for you too!"

The three masters and servants went out.
