Zhang Guanqing led Ying Feiyang upstairs and saw that there was only one gambling table on the second floor of the ship. The table was separated by a partition, just like the Chu River and Han Dynasty. On the left and right sides, there were two words "Buddha" and "Taoism". Practitioners were constantly placing their chips on the table.
Next to the table, there was a casino dealer who was either calculating the odds on an abacus or setting up a table for people to exchange their chips. They looked very busy. Obviously, the second floor was the public gambling place.
But at this time, the public gambling had nothing to do with Ying Feiyang, so he did not stop and went straight to the third floor. Compared to the noise on the first floor and the bustle on the second floor, the third floor was much quieter. The floor was divided into twenty or thirty small rooms. On the door of each room, there was a sign indicating the banker's wager and the player's wager. The wager was even more strange. For example, it was written in front of him:
"Banker: Bet on Taoism
Wager: Nine Dragon Jade Wall
Player: Bet on Buddha
Wager: Head of the 13 Wolf Riders of the Northern Desert
Wager: Head of the 13 Wolf Riders of the Northern Desert
When Ying Feiyang saw this, he frowned and said, "Isn't placing a bet like that the same as hiring an assassin?"
Zhang Guanqing put on the smile of a businessman and said, "That's how private gambling is. It's no different from doing business. As long as both parties can accept the other party's price, it's fine. As for what the stakes are, it has nothing to do with us. Moreover, monsters like the 13 Wolf Riders are a source of trouble. If someone were to gamble their heads, it would be considered as getting rid of a threat. Zhang Guanqing put on a businessman's smile and said, "Private gambling is like this. Speaking of it, it's no different from doing business. As long as both parties can accept the other party's price, it's fine. As for the wager, it has nothing to do with us. Moreover, the 13 Wolf Riders of the Northern Desert are demons.
Ying Feiyang was skeptical, but because he had other important matters to attend to, he did not say anything else. He glanced around the small rooms, but he did not see anyone betting with sarira buddhist beads. Seeing that there were not many rooms left, the shadow that shrouded his heart was expanding bit by bit. Just as his hopes were about to be dashed, he suddenly heard someone scolding, "You really have eyes but fail to see. This Scarlet Cloud Sword of mine is made from meteorites from outer space, refined with the Taoist's Three Flavors True Fire for forty-nine days. On the day the sword was formed, rays of light shot up into the sky and dyed the clouds crimson. That was why it was called the Crimson Cloud Sword. Among the Ten Great Divine Weapons of Sichuan, this sword was ranked ninth. It could be said to be able to cut through iron like mud and break hair with a single blow. It was a true divine weapon. How dare you say that he doesn't deserve to place a bet on him! "
Ying Feiyang followed the direction of the voice and saw another room in the corner. On the door, it was written:
"Dealer: Bet on Buddha.
Stake: One sarira bead.
Casual: Betting on Dao
Wager: No upper class weapons
I'll decide if you want to place your bets. "
"Found it!" Ying Feiyang was elated and saw hope again. He peeked into the room but saw that there was a screen in the room. He could only faintly see a figure. It was obvious that the dealer did not want to show his face. This was normal, so Ying Feiyang did not mind. But he was troubled about the stake.
Seeing that someone had come over, the person who was shouting just now became even noisier. Ying Feiyang said, "Young man, don't pay any attention to this fellow. He said he wanted weapons, but none of them caught his eye. Serves him right that no one has followed up to this day."
Ying Feiyang looked at the person who made the noise. He was dressed like a Daoist with a purple face and a curly beard. He had seen him at Princess Xian Yi's wedding before. It was the master of the Chang Daoist Temple, Fei Yunzi.
He looked at Fei Yunzi's hand and saw a long and narrow sword with a crimson body. The sword showed off its sharpness. When the warm candlelight shone on the sword, it reflected a bone-piercing cold light. It was obviously a top-notch sword.
Ying Feiyang's heart sank when he saw this. Although the Star Disciplinary Sword was also a sharp weapon, it was only one of the standard weapons of Ling Xiao Sword School. It was far from being the best and was far from being comparable to the Crimson Cloud Sword. If the Crimson Cloud Sword did not catch the dealer's eye, then the Star Disciplinary Sword was even more hopeless.
He heard the dealer say to Fei Yunzi, "I'm the dealer, so I'll set the rules. [Love ↑ Go △ Little ↓ Say △ Net]

If you think the sword in your hand is rare, you can make your own bet. There's no need to eat dust here and get in my way. " Following that, he said to Ying Feiyang, "Little fellow, do you want to bet or not? If you do, then take off your sword and let me have a look." The voice of the person behind the screen was old and hoarse, like a broken bellow, unpleasant to the ears.
Ying Feiyang was stunned for a moment before he reacted. "Since I'm already here, I should at least try. Maybe I'll be able to fool them." Ying Feiyang thought to himself without much confidence. At the same time, he took off his sword. The Star Disciplinary Sword had just fought with the Commandment Blade today, so there were still some cracks on the sword. Just by looking at its appearance, it was clearly not as good as Fei Yunzi's Crimson Cloud Sword. As soon as the sword was taken off, a beautiful servant girl immediately took it and passed it to the back of the screen.
The person behind the screen took the sword and exclaimed, "What a strong sword will! Dominating the world and looking down on all living beings. This extraordinary sword will is not something you can leave behind. "
"Senior, you have a good eye! Indeed, it was not left behind by me. " Ying Feiyang praised. The Star Disciplinary Sword was borrowed by Yu Wen Feng for two moves, so the sword will on the sword was naturally left behind by Yu Wen Feng. To be able to use the words' dominating the world and looking down on all living beings' to accurately describe the sword will on the sword, the person inside must have a good eye and extraordinary knowledge. He must also be an extraordinary person. With admiration in his heart, coupled with the person's old voice, Ying Feiyang had already consciously addressed him as a senior.
"Not only the sword will, but there is also a fierce killing intent! This sword is riddled with scars, but they are all new. The killing intent on the scars has yet to dissipate. It must have met with a powerful demon weapon recently. "
"That's right." Ying Feiyang nodded his head in response. However, he did not say anything else in case the whereabouts of the Killing Buddha Blade were leaked and caused unnecessary disputes.
The person inside pondered for a moment and said, "I will bet a Sarira Buddhist Bead on the victory of the Buddhist Sect. Do you want to bet with this sword?"
Ying Feiyang did not have much hope, but after hearing the words of the dealer, he seemed to have accepted his Star Disciplinary Sword. Before he could open his mouth, he heard Fei Yunzi's dissatisfied voice. "You bastard, are you purposely going against me? Although the quality of that sword is not bad, it is far from my Scarlet Cloud Sword. You don't want your Scarlet Cloud Sword and choose his instead? "
Then, he revealed a doubtful expression. "Could it be that I made a mistake? That the essence of that sword is hidden and hidden? No way. Brat, take out your sword and let's fight a few times to determine the winner. 【Love ↑ Go △ Little ↑ Say △ Net

】”
However, the dealer snorted. "You Daoist, you really know how to pester endlessly. Let me tell you, a sword is like a person, it also has potential. The material of your Scarlet Cloud Sword is rare, but the fire control and forging technique are a level lower. The meteoric iron has a stone core mixed with impurities. If it was me, I would control the fire and only melt the meteoric iron on the outside, not the stone core inside. This would separate the iron from the stone and isolate the impurities on the iron. However, the person who forged this sword directly used the Three True Fire to burn it. Under the high temperature, the iron and stone fused into one. No matter how hard it is to separate, the impurities on the sword are also difficult to remove. This is a waste of good material. Not to mention the Ten Great Mystical Weapons in the world, even the Ten Great Mystical Weapons should have a place for this Scarlet Cloud Sword. Which swordsmith is so wasteful! "
At the end of his speech, there was a hint of anger in the dealer's words, but Feiyun Zi was speechless. He wanted to argue, but his lips moved, but no words came out. In the end, his face turned red and he lowered his head in silence. Ying Feiyang thought to herself, "Look at his embarrassed state. I'm afraid this sword was forged by him himself. He's like a mute, unable to say anything even if he has the time."
After the dealer finished commenting on the Scarlet Cloud Sword, he talked about the Star Ji Sword. "Look at this sword, it's obvious that it's the sword of the Ling Xiao Sword School's disciples. Ling Xiao Sword School forges at least eighty swords every year, if not a hundred. In the end, there are at least ten or twenty swords that are forged that can be considered excellent. This is only one of them, so it's not considered rare. However, the wonderful thing is that this sword has been purified by the Cold Pond of Sword Cleansing in Ling Xiao Sword School. With the Cold Iron Star Sand adhering to it, it's like a person's meridians being cleansed. Since then, it has been reborn, and its potential is extraordinary. With such a foundation, if it can be reforged, it'll definitely improve this sword by a few levels. "
The dealer concluded, "This Scarlet Cloud Sword of yours is like you. Even though it's still stronger now, it's only at this point in its life. It'll be hard for it to improve any further. On the other hand, that young man's sword has unlimited potential. Even though it's not as good now, it has been tempered by someone else, so there'll be a lot of room for improvement. That's why I chose his sword over yours. Young man, you haven't answered me. Do you want to use this sword to bet with me? "
Ying Feiyang's face was filled with reluctance. "This … this sword was given to me by an old friend. If I were to use it as a bet, it would be disrespectful to him."
"Hmm …" The person inside muttered, as if there was a hidden sense of loss.
However, Ying Feiyang immediately changed the topic and said, "However, I do have an urgent need for the Sarira Buddhist Beads. I'm sure that old friend of mine won't blame me." Ying Feiyang thought to himself, "Nan Ba, oh Nan Ba, don't say that I didn't take your sword seriously. If it were you, with a beautiful girl waiting for you to rescue, you'd definitely take your sword as a bet without any hesitation. At least I hesitated for a moment." After muttering a few words, the guilt of valuing a lover over a friend suddenly disappeared.
"Good! Since both sides have agreed, I'll act as the notary and seal the wager for both sides. Once the bet is over, it'll be handed over to the winner. "Zhang Guanqing saw that the agreement was successful, so she also smiled as the notary.
With a clap of her hands, a maid brought over a contract. The contract was written in black and white, with all the terms and conditions clearly written on it. "Contract with the Gods? Your Exquisite Treasure Pavilion is really rich and overbearing. "Fei Yunzi looked at the contract and said sourly.
Zhang Guanqing laughed and said, "Haha, it's just to let the guests of both sides rest assured, so that we can collect the intermediary fee."
The Contract with the Gods was written with arcane power. Once both sides agreed, there was no way to change it. Ying Feiyang signed his name and pressed his finger on the contract. The moment he pressed his finger on the contract, he felt a mysterious force gushing out from his fingertip and into the contract. From then on, the contract would be witnessed by the heaven and earth, and could not be violated. Otherwise, it would be an act of deceiving the heaven and earth, and would be abandoned by the heaven and earth.
After signing the contract, the Star Disciplinary Sword was taken away by the maid for storage. Ying Feiyang, who had always carried the sword with him, felt quite reluctant. After the Star Disciplinary Sword was taken away, he asked again, "Shopkeeper Zhang, although I know about the Buddhist and Daoist Conference, I don't know the specific rules. Could you please tell me a thing or two?"
"You don't know the rules and you've already placed your bet? Is Dōjin … just doing what he wants? "Zhang Guanqing said with his eyes wide open.
Ying Feiyang smiled and said, "I'm not a gambler, so naturally, I don't know the rules of the game."
Zhang Guanqing shook his head and said, "Well, it's actually very simple. The rules of the Buddhist and Daoist Conference are slightly different every time, but the general principle has never changed. It's always divided into two rounds, civil and martial. Each side will send out three people. The civil will talk about Dao and Dharma, but it's boring for mediocre people like me. Plus, there's a lot of tricks involved, so every time there's a bet, it's always the martial arena."
"The martial arena is a one-on-one battle, and there's also a battle royale where six people from both sides enter the arena at the same time. Although the details of the battle can only be known before the battle, it's definitely much more lively than the civil arena. I still remember that the previous Buddhist and Daoist Conference was a one-on-one battle. Ji Fengming from the Heavenly Nature Palace appeared as the vanguard, but she didn't even catch her breath before she defeated the three people from the Buddhist Sect. The cheers at that time could really turn the sky upside down. However, this time, the Buddhist Sect has Holy Lady Ling Xin, and Ji Fengming can't participate due to her age. In my opinion, Young Hero Ying, if you choose to bet on the Daoist Sect's side, your chances of winning are not high."
Upon hearing this, Feiyun Zi immediately spat, "Holy Lady Ling Xin is just a little girl, how could she have such great abilities? Why does my Daoist Sect's chances of winning are not high? Brat, don't worry and place your bet. If you lose, the worst that can happen is that I will lend you the Scarlet Cloud Sword. If you win, you just have to lend the Sarira Buddhist Beads to I to play with as marbles for two days! "
Feiyun Zi could be considered as the troublemaker of the battle between the Buddhist and Daoist Sects. His Daoist temple had been occupied by the monks, so he had been suppressing his anger towards the Buddhist Sect. Upon hearing that he wanted to bet on the Sarira Buddhist Beads for such a purpose, Ying Feiyang did not know whether to laugh or cry. He asked Zhang Guanqing again, "May I know who the other participants from the Buddhist and Daoist Sects are?"
Zhang Guanqing said, "Holy Lady Ling Xin of the Buddhist Sect has already registered, so she's definitely one. Shi Chuxin has always been known as a divine monk, and he's also the direct disciple of the Holy Buddha, so he should also be one. As for the last person, there hasn't been a definite candidate, but the Daoist Sect is much clearer. Zuo Feiying of the Heavenly Nature Palace and Xie Lingyan of the Ling Xiao Sword School have already registered their names. The last spot belongs to the Young Celestial Master of Mount Longhu, Zhang Running."
Ying Feiyang frowned and said, "Xie Lingyan? It was actually taken by her. Can someone else be replaced now? "
Zhang Guanqing shook his head and said, "Once you've registered, you can't change it. Even if you can't participate in the competition, it'll only count as a forfeit and won't be replaced. Angel Ling Xin, Xie Lingyan, and Zuo Feiying were already set in stone. “
"In other words, the remaining quota for the Dao Sect can only be obtained from Zhang Running?" Ying Feiyang said seriously.
Zhang Guanqing was shocked. "Young Hero Ying, what do you mean?"
Ying Feiyang did not answer. He took off his jade pendant and said, "Shopkeeper Zhang, what do you think of this jade pendant? How much can I exchange it for? "
Zhang Guanqing was puzzled, but he still picked it up and examined it. "The jade is crystal clear and flawless. The carvings are vivid and lifelike. It's obviously the work of a master. This jade pendant is comparable to the items in the palace. It can be exchanged for at least five golden leaves!"
