Chapter 563 Losing hemp
Chapter 563 Losing hemp
The desk is vermilion and covered with black paper.
A thin layer of blood spread out and incense ash floated, but no matter how it shook, it remained scattered and could not gather together.
Zhu Zongwang didn't believe it and tapped the tabletop joints harder and faster.
Until two holes were knocked into the fine nanmu table, and the fate map disappeared without a trace.
Dry mouth.
"Hong Yuan, how old is the incense ash you got?"
"Thirty years mixed with fifty years."
"Is there any longer?"
Huo Hongyuan didn't waste any words. He went out and came back, and the small clay pot was immediately on the table.
"One hundred years!"
Try again,
Knock again.
The incense ash floating on the surface of the blood began to move, and Zhu Zongwang was overjoyed. However, before it could gather and take shape, the half-hidden and half-visible life map collapsed again.
The slightly relieved mood fell to the bottom.
On the other hand, Huo Hongyuan's fate chart did not even show any signs of struggle, and was a ball of dirty gray from beginning to end.
Goo!
Adam's apple rolling.
Sweat gradually broke out on my forehead.
Zhu Zongwang opened the kettle he carried with him and drank it all in one gulp, with water running down the corners of his mouth. He took two steps back, sat down on the chair, his mind a mess.
The fate changed by the Twenty-Eight Constellations of Wolf Smoke has really disappeared!
"Fate won't change without reason... Is there any change in Mount Lu?"
"It shouldn't be like this." Huo Hongyuan shook his head. "Kuanglu is the most beautiful mountain in the world. Many people have visited Mount Lu, but I have never heard of anyone changing their fate because of climbing Mount Lu."
Dead silence.
Zhu Zongwang closed his eyes and rested.
Huo Hongyuan stared at the incense ashes.
The sound of rain outside the window gradually fades away, and sunlight shines through the window.
"What's the big deal lately?"
"Xu Siqing's birthday, a grand hunting party."
"Is it a birthday?" Zhu Zongwang sat up, "What powerful figure did your Xu family invite? A martial saint? Who was crowned king?"
Huo Hongyuan frowned: "Is there a powerful person coming?"
"When we came back earlier, many people were looking at us." Zhu Zongwang gradually regained his composure from the dilemma of his "disappearing" fate and recalled more details, "People and things will affect fate...
The temporary 'disappearance' of your and my destiny is not necessarily a bad thing. There may be changes, but the changes are uncertain, which creates a fog.
After the martial arts exam, our fates were also unclear for a few days, but not as exaggerated as this time, remember?"
Huo Hongyuan seemed to be thinking about something and walked out.
"I'll ask."
evening.
"Yang Dongxiong, Liang Qu..."
The news about the Xu family spread very quickly, and it didn't take any effort to find out.
Zhu Zongwang was full of doubts: "Is it because he wants to become a master, or is it because of Liang Qu?"
"Why don't you just give it a try and find out?"
When Huo Hongyuan heard the servants gossiping and comparing him to a person who came out of nowhere, he became very angry.
"Don't act rashly!"
Zhu Zongwang stretched out his hand to stop him.
The "loss" of one's fate is indeed a serious matter. The situation is unclear at the moment and must not be known to a third party.
If the latter is the cause and we are not fully prepared, wouldn't we just run into trouble and become a foregone conclusion?
Even good things can turn into bad things!
"Chi Yisheng changed." Huo Hongyuan retorted, "Good things will still turn into bad things!"
"It won't take too long." Zhu Zongwang knew the temperament of the Jishuibao. "The Grand Hunting Meeting! Wait until the Grand Hunting Meeting, deep in the mountains and old forests, you and I will join forces to test him! This is a sure way to avoid any risk!"
……
"Elder, do you want to take a break?"
Long Yao and Long Li brought a recliner, prepared the yogurt, and watched Liang Qu, who had just returned from his master's wife, walk from east to west and then from west to east, just like a husband anxiously waiting outside the delivery room.
Making clothes makes you sad?
"You guys sit down."
Liang Qu waved his hand and kept walking, with a lot on his mind.
"Why haven't you come to cause trouble yet?"
As it was getting darker and closer to nightfall, a figure rushed into the courtyard.
"It's open, it's open!" Xu Zishuai waved the ticket and ran up to him, "A Shui, you lost." Lost?
When Liang Qu saw the red cross on the ticket, his eyes went dark and he stumbled into the recliner.
Long Yao and Long Li had no idea what was going on, so they hurriedly fanned the children, handed them yogurt, and put cool towels on their foreheads.
Liang Qu grabbed the towel and groaned in pain.
A few days ago, I heard from Patriarch Xu that there was a handicap, so he asked Xu Zishuai to secretly bet 3,000 taels on his behalf, and bet on Yasha to attack on the spot...
Lose all your money!
day!
I'm getting angry!
What a bullshit angry yaksha, he brags all the time, but when something really happens, it's of no use at all.
Coward!
Liang Qu gulped down the yogurt in three gulps, then grabbed the towel, sat up, and stared at Xu Zishuai.
"Three thousand taels, you pay me!"
Xu Zishuai looked around and confirmed that Liang Qu was talking about him. He widened his eyes and said, "I want to pay? You asked me to place the bet!"
"If you don't brag, where will the odds come from? How can I lose?"
"?"
"No money? Write an IOU! Long Yao, go get some paper and pen!"
“No.” Xu Zishuai was at fault first, and when he saw Long Yaozhen went to the study, he quickly comforted his junior brother and replaced Long Li to massage his junior brother’s shoulders, “Junior brother, don’t worry, don’t worry. Three thousand taels, I can’t take it out, isn’t it just a little bit of money for you?
We lost this time, but we can still bet on the winning or losing handicap next time! What is the odds for the on-the-spot trouble? I see a bunch of people crying and howling, but even if I win, I won't make a lot of money.
Win or lose is different, the odds are fifty-fifty! Junior brother has the upper hand, one punch and one kill, guaranteed to win! "
"You sign a contract! I'll put in another three thousand taels. If something goes wrong, you'll have to pay me six thousand taels!"
Lost once.
Liang Qu wants to transfer the risk!
Apart from winning or losing, there are many unexpected things, so you must be prepared first.
Long Yao walked out of the room and handed over paper and pen with a smile.
"Brother Xu, please."
Xu Zishuai was numb. He took the paper and pen, hesitant and doubtful.
"Junior brother, you wouldn't deliberately fake the match to get revenge on me, right?"
Liang Qu sneered: "Am I that kind of person?"
"Aba Aba..."
"call!"
Long Yao blew gently on the paper to make sure the ink was dry, and put it away carefully.
Xu Zishuai was worried and sighed, "I'll go back and rest."
"Wait, there's something else."
"That's enough!" Xu Zishuai jumped up and down, "I was just bragging. The servants spread the word themselves, it's none of my business!"
"We're done with both sides."
"Say!"
"Ask about whether that 'Tail Fire Tiger' will participate in the Grand Hunting Meeting."
"Just this? I think so." Xu Zishuai said, "Anyone under 35 years old and with a clear identity can attend. It's before the birthday party, so there's no reason not to go."
"Find out more about it. If you really want to participate, try to persuade the dealer to open another market."
Liang Qu was very upset about his loss of three thousand taels.
"What handicap?"
"Bet on who will win between me and Wei Huo Hu."
Xu Zishuai was surprised and said, "Didn't you hear what the ancestor said the day before yesterday? The Tail Fire Tiger is a hunting tiger!"
“New here.”
"It's also tiger hunting when you first come in!"
"We're hunting tigers!" Liang Qu simply said, "You tried to stir up trouble between me and Weihuohu a few days ago, but I didn't care about you. I even praised you for your good work!"
Xu Zishuai clicked his tongue, wondering if Liang Qu had been with Guan Congjian for too long and had picked up some bad habits.
Think for a while.
Approach quietly.
"Tell me the truth, Junior Brother, how sure are you?"
"About 100 percent." Liang Qu thought for a moment and added, "About 80 percent."
……
The next day.
"What the hell? Weihuohu and Liang Jiulang? Sixteen to one? Hunting tigers and setting off smoke signals?"
"There are even better odds here! Tail Fire Tiger, Ji Water Leopard and Liang Jiulang? Thirty to one! Shit, someone has already bet four thousand six!"
“Who voted?”
