Chapter 0010: The Turn of Events

Dark Small Medium Large Original Scroll to Bottom

This scene caused countless people to scream in excitement, as they had placed their bets on the white dog, and victory was within their grasp.

Tang Bao was extremely excited, indulging in delicious food while dancing and cheering for the white dog

This scene unfolded too abruptly. No one could have anticipated that the seemingly doomed black dog would suddenly turn the tables and decisively eliminate its opponent

I bet that the white dog will win, and I wager 30,000 taels.

Blood gushed out in a bubbling manner, as the black dog indulged in drinking the white dog's blood, emitting bursts of excited and frenzied howls

"Speak, how much do you wish to bet?" As he spoke, Tang Bao had already pulled out a stack of silver notes from his wide, bulky sleeves, each note being the largest denomination of ten thousand taels from Qingyuan Country, a luxury only the highest nobility could possess

She covered Tang Bao's hand with hers and said with a playful smile, "What is Young Master Tang saying? Am I considered an outsider? While you are here playing with me, how could I let Young Master He borrow your money?"

As they were about to approach, the two dogs leaped high simultaneously, waving their front paws as they lunged at each other

Time passes slowly, and the struggle between the two fierce dogs is finally taking shape, gradually leading to a determination of victory and defeat

She knows that Tang Bao and He Wu Hen have a very good relationship, and since Tang Bao has placed a bet, there is no reason for him not to join in the game.

Mr. He, are you not planning to have a go at it?

Hu Yaoyao spoke kind words, but inwardly she cursed Tang Bao to death: "Hmph! That damned fatso, utterly despicable. If He Wuhen borrowed your money, how can I make him owe me a debt? How can I swallow up the He family's assets?"

Because He Wuhen lost the bet, he now owes the Hu family 200,000 taels of silver

The two warriors leaped into the air, soaring to a height of two zhang, jumping from the arena to the stands. In the vast arena, only two ferocious dogs remained, unbound and free.

In the VIP suites on the second and third floors, the arena maidens continuously come and go, as they are tasked with placing bets for the young masters in the suites, with wagers ranging from several thousand taels to tens of thousands of taels.

The sole purpose is to attract numerous guests to place their bets

Tang Bao originally came to watch dog fights and gamble, so he was naturally well-prepared. After some research, he finally selected his target and took out a few banknotes.

Hu Yaoyao waved to the maid behind her to accept Tang Bao's bet, her gaze once again focused on He Wuhen as she said: "Young Master He, look, even Young Master Tang has placed a bet. Can't you do us the honor and join in for a round?"

Tang Bao was astonished; the apple he had just taken in his hand, before he could even bring it to his mouth, fell to the ground with a thud

He Wu Hen is completely uninterested in dog fighting

However, in contrast, He Wuhen, who placed the highest bet of 200,000 taels of silver, appeared disinterested, sipping tea and yawning with boredom

However, at that moment, the cheers and screams of the crowd suddenly came to an abrupt halt

The sharp claws and pointed fangs are the weapons of the two dogs, as they frantically unleash their anger and frenzy, viciously tearing at each other's flesh and drinking each other's blood

Moreover, her words are indeed touching

Hu Yaoyao saw that He Wuhen finally agreed to place a bet, and immediately her face lit up with joy. She waved her hand to signal the maid to make a record.

The first to speak was Tang Bao, who looked at He Wuhen with a face full of reproach and said unhappily: "Hey, Young Master He, you really don't treat me, Tang Bao, as a brother, do you? What kind of talk is that? With a brother here, you can place your bets without hesitation; I'll cover the money for you."

Soon, under the vivid descriptions of the shopkeeper and his utmost efforts to entice, countless individuals began to place their bets

Tang Bao was also laughing with great excitement, even abandoning the pig's trotter in his hand, which he threw away, clapping his hands in exhilaration

All around the arena, the sounds of countless guests shouting their bets can be heard, with amounts ranging from several hundred taels of silver to just a few taels.

Only Hu Yaoyao smiled, and she smiled so happily

Suddenly, the black dog, which was originally doomed to die, became fierce. With an angry roar, it swung its paws and sent the white dog flying, leaping up to pounce on the white dog.

The duel quickly escalated to a fever pitch, with both dogs sustaining injuries, their bodies covered in wounds of various sizes, blood streaming down and staining their fur, creating a shocking sight

The black dog lay on the ground, drenched in blood, howling in agony and emitting painful cries.

Finally, the competition is about to begin

The reason why the Wind and Cloud Beast Fighting Arena has become the largest industry and source of funds for the Hu family is not solely due to dog fighting and beast fighting; rather, the more lucrative aspect is the establishment of gambling houses, which is where the real profits lie

But the white dog showed no mercy, opening its large mouth to reveal sharp fangs, and biting down fiercely on the black dog's neck

He has wagered thirty thousand taels of silver; if he loses, he will be in pain for a long time

Perhaps tonight you will have good fortune and win some money, which could allow you to settle that previous debt

Gradually, the speed of the two dogs increased, leaving only the black and white figures on the arena, as they chased and bit each other, continuously emitting tragic howls.

Moreover, those two ferocious large dogs always evoke his memories, reminding him of the scene where Wang Kui had the big dog bite him, which is why he feels a strong aversion

The warrior, holding two fierce dogs, bent down to stroke and soothe them before finally removing the iron muzzle from the dogs' mouths and loosening the thick chains attached to their collars

This is a middle-aged man dressed in a blue robe, who is very shrewd. With a few words, he extols the two dogs to an extraordinary degree, embellishing them with fantastic descriptions.

Unexpectedly, while Tang Bao was eager to do good deeds, there was someone even more anxious than him, and that was Hu Yao Yao

After that, the room finally calmed down. He Wuhen and Tang Bao were eating fruit and chatting while waiting for the competition to begin. Hu Yaoyao's maid also went to find the shopkeeper to register the silver note bet.

Meanwhile, her gaze also fell upon He Wuhen.

What a big shot, don't be polite with your sister, how much do you want to bet? It's just a matter of a few words. As long as you, the big shot, are having fun, your sister will cover any amount of money for you

Young Master Tang, which one do you have high hopes for? Are you not going to invest a few thousand taels of silver for fun?

He Wu Hen also gazed at this scene, his eyes fixed intently on the black dog, a flicker of doubt evident in the depths of his gaze

Upon hearing Hu Yaoyao's words, He Wuhen smiled and shook his head, saying: "Let's skip it tonight, no bets."

Looking at all of this, Hu Yaoyao felt very pleased in her heart, secretly calculating how much silver she could earn tonight

It was only after yet another fierce confrontation that the black dog clearly suffered defeat, being struck on the head by the white dog's paw and falling to the ground

Once bitten, the black dog will have its throat torn apart and will die completely, while the white dog will emerge victorious

Tang Bao and Hu Yao Yao both wanted to lend money to He Wu Hen. Unable to refuse their kind offer, after a round of evasion and persuasion, He Wu Hen ultimately had to compromise

He originally thought that once he clarified the matter, Hu Yaoyao would no longer entangle him, but he was mistaken

What the two of them did not see was that at the moment the maid left, Hu Yaoyao subtly gave a glance to the maid.

Thus, he reluctantly spoke up: "I also bet that the white dog will win, I wager 200,000 taels!"

The unleashed ferocious dog became extremely agitated and furious, howling loudly as it sprinted towards its opponent with all four legs. The brutal and bloody contest finally commenced at this moment

The white dog, seizing the opportunity, immediately pounced on the black dog, baring its sharp fangs and savagely tearing at the black dog's body.

Subsequently, the black dog pressed its front paws against the body of the white dog, howling to the sky with a long cry. Its eyes turned crimson, and it opened its bloody mouth, biting through the neck of the white dog.

At this moment, the emotions of countless spectators were completely ignited, as they shouted and roared passionately, cheering for the fierce dog they had placed their bets on, hoping for its victory to bring them a substantial amount of money

At this moment, several chimes rang out in the arena, and the master of the Colosseum made his entrance

He, He Wuhen, was not interested in dog fighting and did not understand it very well either. He could not tell which dog would win, so he placed the same bet as Tang Bao.

Hu Yaoyao is quite cunning, as she is able to opportunely exploit Tang Bao

However, He Wuhen thought for a moment and then smiled while shaking his head, saying: "No need, I didn't bring any silver tonight, so I won't place a bet."

Upon hearing this, He Wuhen's heart was somewhat shaken

The two dogs moved as swiftly as the wind, and in the blink of an eye, they pounced upon each other, with the sound of "bang bang" echoing continuously as the two dogs engaged in a fierce struggle in mid-air

In the first bout of fighting, neither of the two dogs was injured. After landing steadily, the battle became even more intense, with swift movements akin to a rabbit springing and a hawk swooping down, resulting in an incredibly fierce struggle

Hu Yaoyao tried to persuade him a few more times, but He Wuhen remained unwilling to place a bet. Thus, the clever Hu Yaoyao shifted her attention to Tang Bao.
