martial arts general

Chapter 26
It was the first time Zhao Jiuxiao heard such a request from the head of a faction.

However, after seeing Zhuge Lang's expression, he knew that what the other party said was true.

Zhao Jiuxiao looked at the three people behind him, wanting to see their opinions.

Gongsun Wuji nodded, hoping that Zhao Jiuxiao would agree. He liked fortune telling, and of course he understood Zhuge Lang's personality.

Sima You shook his head. In his opinion, gambling itself was too risky.

He Zhengyang didn't respond at all. He followed Zhao Jiuxiao's opinion on this matter.

Zhao Jiuxiao made up his mind and smiled: "Okay, Master Zhuge, I promise you."

Then, he told the ins and outs of the matter.

Although Sima You didn't like Zhao Jiuxiao gambling with Zhuge Lang, he respected Zhao Jiuxiao very much and had no objection.

Zhuge Lang looked out of the window with his hands behind his back: "This Dongfang Jue actually wants to use a beauty trick to kill me, but it's a pity that I hid the secret book of [Langhua Shengong] in a place where no one can find it except me. Dongfang absolutely wants to snatch the secret book, but it is just wishful thinking."

Zhao Jiuxiao nodded: "Sect Leader Zhuge has a good opinion."

Zhuge Lang changed the subject, smiled and said, "Hero Zhao, shall we play dice?"

Zhao Jiuxiao agreed: "Okay."

Gongsun Wuji said at this time: "Master Zhuge, if we win, can I make a request to you?"

Zhao Jiuxiao looked at Gongsun Wuji in surprise, but said nothing.

He knew that his good friend must have special thoughts.

Zhuge Lang's expression changed slightly: "Interesting, the old man has been in the world for many years, and few people dare to give advice to the old man, but you are very courageous."

Gongsun Wuji smiled: "Master Zhuge is naturally romantic and broad-minded, so he doesn't care about such small things?"

Zhuge Lang: "Young Master Gongsun, do you still have the ability to read faces?"

Gongsun Wuji cupped his hands and said, "Know a thing or two."

Zhuge Lang sighed and said, "There are talented people in the world. Well, I promise you, as long as your request is not too excessive."

Gongsun Wuji: "Don't worry, I will definitely not embarrass the head of Zhuge."

After finishing speaking, Zhao Jiuxiao and Zhuge Lang came to the poker table.

I saw a lot of dice here.

Zhao Jiuxiao had only seen these things on TV before, but now that he saw them with his own eyes, he couldn't help but feel curious.

He picked up the dice, weighed it, and said, "Master Zhuge, how do you play?"

Zhuge Lang replied: "It's very simple. Let's guess the size first, and then shake the three dice in our hands. If we guess the big one, the one with the higher score wins. If we guess the small one, the one with the smaller score wins. There are five rounds in total, and whoever wins first Three rounds is enough to win.”

Zhao Jiuxiao nodded: "I understand."

Zhuge Lang asked: "Master Zhao, do you want to guess the big one or the small one?"

Zhao Jiuxiao hesitated a little, and said, "Guess big."

Zhuge Lang smiled: "Okay."

After speaking, he held three dice in his palm and began to shake them.

Then, he threw the dice on the table.

I saw that the dice inside were "four", "five", and "six".

All the disciples of Chunfenglou applauded.

Zhao Jiuxiao couldn't help opening his eyes wide: "It's amazing!"

Zhuge Lang was very proud: "Boy, it's your turn."

Zhao Jiuxiao also held the dice in his palm and shook it.

After all, it was his first time playing, and he didn't know how to operate it at all.

But at this moment, Gongsun Wuji walked up to Zhao Jiuxiao and whispered in his ear: "Use your inner strength to sense and shake the dice. You have strong inner strength, so you can definitely do it."

Zhao Jiuxiao nodded, concentrating on performing [Arhat's Demon Subduing Kungfu].

Under the urging of internal force, the dice danced in his hand.

After a while, Zhao Jiuxiao threw the dice on the table.

I saw three "five" points displayed on it.

The disciples of Chunfenglou were stunned. They never expected that Zhao Jiuxiao's total points would be the same as Zhuge Lang's.

Zhuge Lang also stroked his beard and praised: "What a good boy, you can master the key as soon as you start playing."

Zhao Jiuxiao also beamed with joy: "It turned out to be a draw, I really didn't expect it."

Zhuge Lang: "It's okay, let's continue playing."

He asked again: "Guess big or guess small?"

Zhao Jiuxiao: "Guess small."

Zhuge Lang nodded and shook the dice again.

After a while, he let go of his hand.

The dice in front of me showed three numbers: "two", "three" and "two".

The disciples of Chunfenglou were praising again.

Zhao Jiuxiao also started to roll the dice, mobilizing his internal energy, and threw them on the table.

I saw two "two" points and one "one" point in front of me.

With the advantage of two points, Zhao Jiuxiao won.

Gongsun Wuji applauded happily: "Daxia Zhao did a great job."

Sima You was very surprised.

He Zhengyang's eyes widened even more.

The Chunfeng Tower disciples were speechless and looked at each other.

Zhuge Lang was not surprised at all, but accepted it calmly: "Very good, Hero Zhao, you are indeed one of the talents."

Next, the two played three more rounds.

Relying on the internal strength of [Arhat's Demon Subduing Skill], Zhao Jiuxiao only lost one of the rounds and was the first to win three rounds.

The Chunfeng Tower disciples were convinced and gave a thumbs up.

Zhuge Lang laughed even more: "I admire such a superb internal force!"

Gongsun Wuji cupped his hands and said, "Master Zhuge, you haven't forgotten our previous agreement, right?"

Zhuge Lang: "Of course, the old man is willing to gamble and admit defeat. Tell me, what do you want the old man to do?"

Gongsun Wuji smiled: "When it is necessary, the younger generation hopes that Master Zhuge will help Master Zhao to do a great thing."

Zhuge Lang's thoughts changed: "Okay, but this big event shouldn't be the fight for the leader of the martial arts alliance, right?"

Gongsun Wuji smiled but said, "I didn't say it, the master Zhuge guessed it himself, but I can guarantee that this matter will not violate the morals of the world."

Zhuge Lang agreed straight away: "That's natural. Although the old man loves to gamble, he never breaks his word."

Gongsun Wuji cupped his hands and said, "Thank you so much, Master Zhuge!"

Zhao Jiuxiao also thanked him repeatedly.

Zhuge Lang asked again: "Hero Zhao, if you have great ambitions, your future is boundless. However, this old man reminds you that there are so many masters in the rivers and lakes. You should practice martial arts well to stand above the crowd."

Zhao Jiuxiao nodded: "I understand, please rest assured, Master Zhuge."

As he said that, Zhuge Lang suddenly flew up, waved his sleeves in the air, and made more than a dozen moves.

[Spray magic! ] I saw him releasing a series of air waves, which surged forward, smashing all the tables, chairs and benches into pieces, and scattered them in all directions.

Gongsun Wuji praised: "Zhuge's sect leader is truly amazing."

Zhuge Lang smiled: "Hero Zhao, this is just my housekeeping skills. There are other unique skills in the Jianghu. If you want to achieve something, you have to overcome these unique skills and fight with all your strength."

Zhao Jiuxiao's heart was full of enthusiasm, and he cupped his hands and said, "This junior will definitely do his best!"
