Zongwu: At the beginning, Huang Rong was tricked into being a cook

Chapter 209 Jianghu Daily Report

"There are still so many grand masters and master masters watching the competition!"

Yue Yue said in surprise.

Chen Yipin said:

"Normal! There are many competitions in Jianghu, but like last night, there are very few people who compete in swordsmanship. Most of them are only competing in internal strength and martial arts."

"So that's one of the reasons people go to see it."

"In addition, this is a competition between the sword god and the sword fairy. This must be very exciting in everyone's eyes. They all want to learn something from it, so there are so many masters."

Chen Yipin's guess was right.

If Chen Yipin's guess is correct, Tianjilou also had the same idea, so he used the Jianghu Daily to publicize this matter so that many people in the Jianghu could watch it.

At this time, Bai Zhantang came over with a teapot in hand.

"Hey, Yipin, you read Jianghu Daily! How about it, who wins, the sword god or the sword fairy?"

Bai Zhantang asked with a casual look.

It seemed to be a random question, but his eyes kept glancing at the Jianghu Daily on the table.

Chen Yipin said with a smile:

"I don't know yet. Only now did I see how many Jianghu people went to see the competition."

"Are there a lot of people? Oh, that's true. There are many people watching the competition between the Sword God and the Sword Fairy."

Bai Zhantang poured a cup of tea for Chen Yipin and Yaoyue.

"Well, according to Jianghu Daily, there are about 5000 people!"

"so much!"

Bai Zhantang thought there were many people, probably only a few hundred people, but he didn't expect there to be so many people.

"Hey, if this is a rebellion...cough cough, what did you say after that."

Bai Zhantang realized that he had said the wrong thing, and quickly changed the subject.

The three looked back.

"The time has not yet come, but the sword god Ximen Chuuxue has already appeared on the top of the Forbidden City."

"Everyone's eyes are on Ximen Chuuxue."

"A lot of good people took advantage of this time to place bets on Ximen Chuuxue and Ye Gucheng."

"According to Jianghu Daily, in this bet, there are more than 5 people who bet on the sword fairy Ye Gucheng to win, and the amount reached about [-] taels of silver."

……

"5 taels! These Jianghu people are really rich!"

Bai Zhantang was speechless.

I have less than one tael of silver a month, and these people have 5 taels just for betting.

On average, basically a dozen taels of silver per person.

Yaoyue frowned and asked:

"With so many people betting on Ye Gucheng, could it be said that Ye Gucheng is better than Ximen Chuuxue? However, there are no rumors in the world, are the two of them on par?"

Ye Gucheng and Ximen Chuuxue had never competed before, and people in Jianghu only judged the two of them based on the outcome of their past competitions.

However, according to the comparison of previous victories and losses, Ye Gucheng and Ximen Chuuxue are completely on par.

Everyone is not sure who will win.

Chen Yipin said:

"Jianghu Daily analyzed it and said it was because Ye Gucheng had developed a new sword move called: Flying Immortal Beyond Heaven. Therefore, it is normal for everyone to bet on Ye Gucheng to win."

Chen Yipin pointed to the description in Jianghu Daily.

Yaoyue and Bai Zhantang looked over.

Sure enough, it was written on it.

"Wouldn't it be that Ximen Chuixue lost to Ye Gucheng?"

Bai Zhantang asked.

"Not necessarily."

Chen Yipin smiled.

Bai Zhantang: "???"

……

"It's time for the competition, just when everyone was expecting Ye Gucheng to appear, Ye Gucheng appeared."

"When everyone was looking forward to it, suddenly many people from the Jianghu fell to the ground."

"The Jianghu Daily informant didn't care, but after a suspicious glance, he turned his attention to the top of the Forbidden City."

"At this moment, the competition begins!"

"At first, I thought it was an unprecedented competition. However, after Ye Gucheng and Ximen Chuuxue made ten moves, Ximen Chuuxue pierced Ye Gucheng's chest with a sword."

"Under the Forbidden City, there is also chaos."

"Many Jianghu people have been assassinated..."

Afterwards, Jianghu Daily described what happened last night.

On the whole, suddenly many people from the rivers and lakes started fighting each other.

And at the gates of the major cities, there are also men in black who want to break through the gates and come in.

……

"It turns out that all of this is Ye Gucheng's scheme."

"Ye Gucheng used this competition to overthrow the current emperor of the Ming Dynasty."

"However, the Ming Dynasty has six gates, Hulong Villa, Jinyiwei, and two factories in the east and west."

……

"Ye Gucheng resorted to his trick of flying fairy."

"With a sword coming from the west, the immortals will fly from the sky."

"The silver sword in Ye Gucheng's hand turned into a flying rainbow and stabbed towards Ximen Chuixue."

"This sword seems to be a fusion of human and sword."

"However... at this time, people in Jianghu have no intention of watching this grand competition."

"Just when Jianghu Daily's informant thought that Ximen Chuuxue was about to lose to Ye Gucheng, Ximen Chuuxue's long sword moved."

"There are no gorgeous moves, just one move."

"One move pierced the real Ye Gucheng's throat."

……

Seeing this, Bai Zhantang sighed.

"Hey... I knew it would be like this."

Chen Yipin and Yaoyue looked over.

Bai Zhantang noticed the gazes of the two, coughed, and explained:

"What I mean is, I knew Ximen Chuuxue would win. I bet three taels of silver on Ximen Chuuxue to win!"

Chen Yipin: "..."

"Ahem, Ye Gucheng is so bold, he actually rebelled!"

"Aren't you afraid of revenge for killing so many Jianghu people?"

Bai Zhantang quickly changed the topic again.

Chen Yipin shrugged his shoulders and said:
"Everyone is dead, why are you afraid of revenge?"

Bai Zhantang thought about it, and it was true.

Ye Gucheng died, and his Baiyun City would definitely not be able to stay.

Even if those Jianghu people want to take revenge, there is no way to retaliate at all.

……

"In the end, under several masters and that strange pigeon, the mysterious masked man invited by Ye Gucheng was also killed."

"Jianghu Daily reported on August [-]."

……

After reading Jianghu Daily, Chen Yipin finished the tea that Bai Zhantang made.

Bai Zhantang continued to busy himself with his own affairs.

Fortunately, Tong Xiangyu was not in the store today, if he saw Bai Zhantang not working and reading Jianghu Daily with Chen Yipin, he might have to nag again.

"Let's go."

Chen Yipin took Yaoyue's hand and left Tongfu Inn.

As soon as they left, the person in the other corner of the inn glanced at them, then closed their eyes and drank tea leisurely.

"what happened?"

On the way back to the manor, Yaoyue asked suspiciously.

Coming out of Tongfu Inn, Chen Yipin frowned tightly, as if he had something on his mind.

"I always feel like something is wrong."

Chen Yipin said slowly.

"Not right?"

Yue Yue was full of doubts.

After finishing speaking, he looked around vigilantly and saw that he didn't find anything unusual, so he asked:
"What's wrong?"
