Chapter 222: The Good Hermit

There was a knife in Li Huqiu's hand. From the moment he opened the door to martial arts, the knife never left him. No matter he lost or won, it had been integrated with the spiritual temperament of its owner!

Seemingly ordinary, in fact, it has hidden murderous intent. All opponents who have underestimated it are dead. It is definitely different from the sledgehammer in the heart of this department. It is a murderous knife that moves according to the owner's will!

Good murderers can be roughly divided into two types. One is those with murderous intent. This kind of people have come through mountains of swords and seas of blood. They kill people like nothing and regard human life as nothing. The murderous intent in such people cannot be concealed.

.The other kind of person is best at hiding ruthless murderous intentions, appearing in front of the world with the attitude of a biting dog without showing his teeth. He seems relaxed and kind, but in fact he has already made up his mind to kill. The former is like Li Gangfeng.

Yang Dabiao and his ilk, and the latter is Li Huqiu. Since his debut, the King of Thieves has rarely shown murderous intentions, but as long as he is determined to get rid of people, no one will be spared! His murderous intentions are buried deep in his heart, and only

When a fatal blow is struck, it will appear in shock like a cloud dragon showing its claws.

Two years ago, when he faced Lan Qingfeng, Li Huqiu hid a three-handed flying knife. When he faced Yang Mufeng, he knew that the opponent's trump card was the measuring ruler, so he hid a copper plate in his chest. At the most critical moment, he finally used it to save his life and kill the enemy!

The best thing about his killing skills lies in a hidden word. Just like the best gambler, he will always save a hand to make money at the most critical moment. As he continues to improve, the level of contact is also rising, and now he finally wants to

Facing the Grandmaster of Perfection in a life-and-death battle, what is his trump card this time?

The shining flying knife looked like a small toy in front of Benchao's momentum, which was as powerful as an angry giant elephant. As Benchao's momentum continued to rise, Li Huqiu seemed to be a little scared, and his footsteps were

Slowly retreated. But the Benchao was pressing forward step by step. Li Huqiu's momentum became weaker with every step he took back, while the momentum of the Benchao became stronger with every step he took forward! The Benchao's footsteps were as heavy as a mountain, and the sound of his stamping on the ground was like a war drum.

, the drum beat became more and more urgent, and Li Huqiu retreated faster and faster!

"Are you scared? After seeing a real strong man, you should understand that you are still far behind in martial arts!"

Li Huqiu's face turned pale, and there seemed to be panic in his eyes, but he still said adamantly: "Afraid? The way of a warrior to strengthen the body and prolong life is actually a heaven-defying road to compete with God for fate. How can I be where I am today?"

Did you get it by chance? It’s not too late to tell me if you win the battle!”

After all, Li Huqiu was retreating, and his speed was much slower than that of Benchao's pursuit. In the blink of an eye, Benchao's big hand had reached Li Huqiu's front, and he was about to catch the thief king's clothes in a fraction of a second. Li Huqiu

He suddenly made a move, and used his finger like a knife to tap lightly on the point where he was facing the fist. This time, he used small to hit the big one, and used fast and slow to hit the most vulnerable part of the boxing point. This was already a wonderful move, but it was a pity that the strength between the two of them was not enough.

The gap was huge, and the potential hidden in the front of Benchao's fist was infinite. Li Huqiu felt a huge undercurrent of power rushing over him at the first contact. It made his arms tremble! At this moment,

, Li Huqiu showed off his flying knife, with the blade hidden in his hand and the tip forward, meeting the tip of his fist in a way that knights in martial arts novels usually despise.

Fighting between life and death, resorting to all possible means, this is a principle summed up by mankind's struggle with nature for thousands of years. How come it has become a despicable and shameless plot now? Li Huqiu doesn't see it that way anyway, he wants to do it

All he wants is to defeat the fat devil in front of him. His principles are exactly opposite to those of his opponent. He can be defeated but never gives in. However, his opponent does not mind giving in in front of a powerful enemy, so he only suffers one defeat in his life.

The tip of Li Huqiu's knife already caused Ben Chao to feel pain, but he did not retreat. He just retracted his hand slightly and turned his fist into a grasp. His strength did not decrease at all. While skillfully grabbing the tip of Li Huqiu's knife,

Use the huge force like a mountain to push back the thief king's oppression step by step.

"When faced with the enemy's sudden changes, you don't stick to one pattern. You have done well, but in the end it cannot replace your true power!" Li Huqiu struggled to resist under the palm of the giant spirit facing him, and the joints all over his body creaked under the pressure.

Honbu, who felt that everything was under control, showed a fierce look in his eyes and said with a ferocious smile. He hit him this time as a pressure. Although he was forced to do so by the tip of the knife, at this time the two suddenly fought and fell into a stalemate, but Honbu

A change that Chao liked. In fact, he had always been worried that Li Huqiu would escape without a fight. In that case, he would have the best chance of seriously injuring the young man the moment he turned around. But now, he was completely confident that he would kill Li Huqiu alive.

Killed by a tiger hill!

What Li Huqiu heard in his ears was the sound of the big heart in Benchao's chest, which was like a war drum. What he saw in his eyes was the muscles in Benchao's body. His heart tightened to stillness in an instant.

In this state, the qi and blood all over the body condensed in the Dantian. The tranquility at this moment was like the stillness before the tsunami. Then he suddenly let out a loud shout! Hi! The qi and blood released in an instant poured into the limbs crazily, and he was already in danger and shaking.

The strength of his arms suddenly doubled, and he actually pushed the huge body of Ben Chao a foot away. At the same time, Li Huqiu, driven by the reaction force, flew back, completely getting rid of Ben Chao's body.

Air traction.

The sword flashed, and Li Huqiu's body was still in mid-air. The flying knife had already been shot. The knife was like a shooting star, and the dazzling part was like a flying fairy riding a seven-color auspicious cloud. But in the eyes of the main army, it was like the king of hell paying homage to the king of hell.

Post, chasing souls and killing people. The distance between the two was too close, and Li Huqiu's flying knife was much more terrifying than before. At the critical moment, I didn't hide, let alone catch it with my hands like Zhang Yongbao, so he only

He had time to raise his hands to resist with his thick arms. His arms were two feet thick, with thick muscles wrapped around the arm bones. When the energy was flowing all over his body, the flying knife of such a short size could only hurt his flesh.

He knew this, so why didn't Li Huqiu know it? He took the risk to compete with his subordinates in order to win over this coward's carelessness, which not only narrowed the distance between the two parties, but also gave him the opportunity to resolve the battle with a flying knife.

How could it be missed so easily? So this knife is not simple!

Li Huqiu instantly released the potential of his Dantian and sent out a powerful blow to force Benchao back. Then he suddenly released his tightened heart, and what burst out was the human body's potential from the heart. Within the distance he deliberately formed, Benchao was forced to retreat.

There was no way to avoid it! The white flying knife stabbed hard into Ben Chao's arms, instantly penetrated the muscle tissue, and struck hard on the arm bones. The huge force mixed with pain actually forced Ben Chao to retreat again.

One step. Just when he thought it was over and shouted and opened his arms to defend, suddenly a dark light flashed in front of his eyes, and a wooden flying knife was in front of him. It turned out that Li Huqiu had hidden a unique skill of time difference.

, two flying knives in one hand, the interval is only milliseconds, and it is calculated that the slow movement of the body towards the huge body will be blocked by the body. People will move slower when they are fat. Even if the speed is not slow, the area of ​​​​the body is

It is difficult to dodge neatly, but everything has advantages and disadvantages, and vice versa. Therefore, Li Huqiu guessed that if he could not hide, he would definitely block it, so Li Huqiu made this move very sneakily.

Time's one hand and two flying knives.

Motobu Chao had no way to hide, and could only watch helplessly as the black flying knife stabbed his big ginkgo bun, instantly messing up the hairstyle he was once proud of. That hairstyle was his father's when he participated in sumo wrestling.

The bun given to him after the project has not been changed for decades. In addition to nostalgia, it also represents a kind of honor. As an undefeated yokozuna, he was allowed to keep the big ginkgo bun for life by the Japan Sumo Association. Now this honor has been

Li Huqiu's flying knife disappeared into thin air. He was defeated! Of course he would not think that Li Huqiu had missed. He was already in great shock. This young man might be far weaker than him in strength, but his flying knife was as powerful as heaven and earth.

Unique! With such a change in speed, it is impossible for gods and ghosts to escape. Therefore, Benchao once again chose to retreat. He turned around and ran away with disheveled hair, leaving his heavy back and round buttocks to Li Huqiu's disposal.

Li Huqiu's flying knife flashed between Jimo's fingers, and he finally did not fire the knife. Tonight he took great risks and hid his strongest method. Now the frightened fat man is worth more alive than dead.

Much larger.

Back on the ship, he told the others what happened tonight. Shang Nan was very puzzled after hearing this and asked him why he let his headquarters go. Li Huqiu said that the time had not come yet, and it was not time to face Tulawang directly.

At that time, Nina didn't understand what he meant. Although the little girl was smart, she was inexperienced in the world. He Luosi took her little hand and told her that Li Huqiu meant that if the dynasty falls now, Tula

Wang's attention will be focused on him.

Chen Lili had a frown on her face. He Luosi asked her if she was worried about tomorrow's game. Chen Lili shook her head and said there was nothing to worry about. She just thought that Huang Shizhu's death was very strange today, and in the evening there was a decisive battle between Li Huqiu and the headquarters.

Something happened, and she felt that this year's Gambling King Competition seemed to be out of control, and its dangers were far beyond her imagination. Originally, she was still immersed in the excitement of being able to compete with many famous veterans in Asia.

, but unexpectedly, she suddenly discovered that the so-called gambling king and the gambling world she knew were so small and fragile. This discovery made her a little uninterested, and at the same time, deep down in her heart, she was even more worried about Li Huqiu's safety. This time

It's the main court, who will it be next time? Will Turawang take action again? Her expression was melancholy, and there was a hint of worry in her tone.

Li Huqiu did not dare to show any emotion towards her worries, so he could only say with a smile: "You are like a tourist who has been yearning for a certain place for many years. After walking into a certain place, you find that the scenery there is actually ordinary and the details are dirty.

There are even dangers hidden everywhere, and I suddenly want to quit, but I don’t know that the landscape has always been like this. It’s just that the people who describe it have beautified and exaggerated the things. The truth is always not as cute as the rumors. Life only lasts a few decades. There are few people as good as you.

How lucky are you to have such an exciting experience? You are so lucky that you don’t know your blessings.”

Chen Lili knew that what Li Huqiu said was a bit unreasonable, but he couldn't find a suitable retort for a while, so he had to laugh. Then he suddenly realized that his worries just now were a little too specific to someone. Girls are always shy when they are pregnant, classical

The beauty suddenly felt flushed. The atmosphere became weird because of the moment of tranquility. He Luosi pretended to be careless and nodded repeatedly to express his agreement with Li Huqiu's point of view. He also said that it was a pity that the competition did not allow the exchange of players, otherwise she would

I am very willing to compete for Chen Lili.

Shang Nan felt that the three of them looked fake. Li Huqiu was the first friend he made after entering the world, and now he is his like-minded best friend, someone he admires from the bottom of his heart. Although he has never liked Li Hu

Qiu acted like this, but he remembered that his master said that when you and I are willing, a man who is romantic only has disadvantages in small details. As long as he can control the big details, he can be regarded as a good man. Honest children use the best

The simple way of thinking saw through the little hidden intrigue between the three of them. He was too lazy to get involved in Li Huqiu's complicated triangle or even four-corner ambiguity, so he yawned and left to sleep. There was only one person left in the cabin.

Next, Li Huqiu and Chen and He's two daughters.

Chen Lili has been a very independent girl since she was a child. She refused everything her father Chen Zhantang arranged for her and proudly embarked on the road of gambling. She even openly studied under her father's rival Ye Li.

Gambling skills. Before she reached the age of first love, she had always been surrounded by lustful attention, but she had never looked down upon it. Until she met Li Huqiu, there was no man in her memory who was worthy of her attention.

In the past, she just wanted to indulge in doing the things she liked, whether it was gambling or other things, as long as she liked it, she would try it. The reason why she had such a mentality was because she had seen too many lives and deaths since she was a child.

Farewell. The people around Chen Zhantang changed one after another. Among those who disappeared, some died in foreign wars, some were executed by their senior brothers after betraying them, and some died after being ambitious and failed in their attempt to turn against the guest. She had a delicate heart.

Bing Hui had already guessed the truth from the rumors behind those people. She didn't know if her father would keep winning like this, let alone how long her senior brother's lifestyle of dancing on the edge of a knife could last.

She had always been prepared to lose her loved ones. In order to let her father change his way of life, she had been the best daughter and the most rebellious daughter, but in the end she only got endless pampering and meticulous protection. Chen Zhantang is still

The decisive leader of the Nanyang Hongmen Association, the senior brother is still the most powerful killer around her father. From then on, she understood a truth, a man can easily give his life for the people he cares about, but he is unwilling to do it for the people he cares about.

to make changes.

Now, she got to know Li Huqiu. At first, she was just surprised by his miraculous shooting speed, and then she became curious about his origins. Later, she gradually learned more about him. The more she learned about him, the more she learned about him.

The more she couldn't help herself, she wanted to know him better. There was a free and heroic temperament about this man that made her stunned. He cared about everyone around him but never cared about what these people thought of him. He liked to be free and proud.

It felt like he just let himself be free, completely ignoring the feelings of those he was willing to protect at the risk of his life. He had the most painful childhood experience, but Chen Lili didn't find any trace of that period in him.

Shadow. He has the pure and persistent brilliance of an idealist, but his resourcefulness and methods cannot even be compared to those who have been wallowing in the real world for many years.

A twenty-year-old girl has been calm and calm for nearly ten years, and has been living a life that seems to be comfortable but is actually boring. All she sees and hears in her eyes and ears are boring and repetitive stories about men. She has been

She longs for someone who is different from those people. This man named Li Huqiu has subverted her past impression of men. He is like a hurricane coming in, easily setting off huge waves in her heart, making her

Her heart was pounding all night long and she couldn't sleep. Girls are very good at hiding their worries, and Chen Lili is the best among them, so until she confessed her love while lying drunk under the stars that day, no one knew what was on her mind. Even now,

No one knew how hot her heart was. She sat there alone, immersed in the ambiguous atmosphere created by her slip of the tongue. What she heard in her ears was Li Huqiu and He Luosi discussing the gambling king competition in front of and behind the scenes.

But she only heard the calmness in his voice, and she didn't listen at all to the content of their discussion.

"Li Li Li Li! I'm talking to you." Chen Li Li suddenly raised his head, and He Luosi was looking at her, frowning and asked: "What do you think? I mean, both Ye Li and Masao Asano are planning to borrow money."

Those who machine-control the gaming industry in Macau have a strong political flavor behind them, and their purpose is very clear, but what is the purpose of that person? And the Indian Greta, what is his purpose?

"

"Well" Chen Lili pondered for a moment, quickly put away her thoughts and feelings, sorted out what she had seen since the start of the game in her mind and said: "I remember you said that the gambling licenses in Macao are changed every four years.

Yes, this year is the year when the Australian Governor's Government takes back gambling licenses and re-issues them. According to the usual practice, the operators in the past four years only need to pay enough taxes and there are no major fluctuations in their operations. The Australian Governor's Government has no reason to change people, just like in the past.

What we learned is that the so-called re-issuance is just an opportunity for Mr. Macao Governor to collect money, and the existing pattern will not change. He paused and then said: "But this year is different from previous years. Next year will be the year of Hong Kong Island's return.

At the beginning of the year, the mainland navy held military exercises in the South China Sea to show off its force. The nuclear submarine that elusively appeared on the Atlantic coast has given the West enough deterrence. Although the current strength of the mainland military is not enough to expand, it is rich enough to protect itself. The return of Hong Kong Island

Although it is imminent, it is a foregone conclusion, and now more people’s eyes are focused on Macao.”

"I'm afraid it won't be easy for Aocheng to make a smooth transition." He Luosi sighed and nodded.

"What is the most important industry in Macao?" Chen Lili continued without waiting for He Luosi's answer: "Of course it is the gaming industry! Most of the people in Macao are engaged in related occupations. If we can control the gambling industry in Macao,

In the gaming industry, it is so easy to destabilize Macao City. There is huge power hidden behind those people. That power can interfere with the smooth return of Macao City as long as they have an excuse. These people have ulterior motives and spare no effort to do this.

This is probably the real purpose of the Gambling King Competition."

Li Huqiu said: "More than that, there is a saying that the whole body can be mobilized by pulling a string. These idiots know that force can no longer reverse the trend of Macao's return, so they have no choice but to cause trouble inside Macao to disgust the Communist Party, and even create

International public opinion has hindered the smooth return of Macao and attracted the attention of the central government. I heard Li Yuanchao say that the country is undergoing a soft landing of the economy. State-owned enterprises have collapsed, employees have been laid off, state-owned assets have been lost to individuals, and the gap between the rich and the poor is getting wider and wider. The Communist Party

Life is also very sad. There is no peace both internally and externally. It is even more difficult for this country to develop rapidly. This is probably what the little devils and Western devils want to see most."

He Luosi smiled and said: "If you put it this way, it seems that if we can destroy their wishful thinking in this gambling competition, we can all become national heroes."

Chen Lili said: “If Macau Entertainment has a huge funding gap at this time, the Australian Government will refuse to issue gambling licenses on the grounds that Macau Entertainment’s operations have experienced major fluctuations. As soon as this news is reported, at this juncture, Macau Entertainment’s

The stock price will collapse immediately, and Australia Entertainment will be finished."

Li Huqiu sighed: "He Bin and Macao Entertainment have now become the target of public criticism. In addition to the peripheral handicap opportunities that this gambling king competition will provide for those people, the fact that Macao Entertainment is a listed company on the capital market in Lisbon will also

Give these people an opportunity. According to European securities regulations, delisting requires at least a two-year selling buffer period. Therefore, He Bin needs a large amount of cash in the two years before delisting to resist hostile takeovers.

The periphery was also a good opportunity for him to make money. He had a chance to get support from the central government, but he refused to give up his obsession with the world, so he tried every means to drag me into it."

"What are you and He Bin planning?" He Luosi always felt that Li Huqiu was hiding something from her, and it was related to He Bin.

Li Huqiu thought for a while and said with a smile: "You will know when the game is over."

Chen Lili thought of tomorrow's game and said: "By the way, the gambling equipment for tomorrow's game is designated by the competition, mahjong! You and I are not at the same table."

Li Huqiu nodded and asked, "Who else is at the same table with you?"

After the first day of the finals of the Gambling King Competition, huge changes have taken place in the peripheral handicap. The biggest one is Chen Lili, who was the least optimistic before. She defeated one of the favorites to win the championship due to her upset.

As a result, the odds of Zaledli have skyrocketed and now have reached 2 for 1, second only to 'Golden Left Hand' Ye Li's 1.50 to 1 and 'Mind Eyes' Masao Asano's 1.8 to 1.

Huqiu had previously placed a heavy bet of HK$80 million on Yakuza's handicap that she would win. The odds offered at that time were 180 to 1, which meant that if Chen and Li were the queen, Yakuza would win.

Li Huqiu must pay more than 10 billion Hong Kong dollars! This incident not only caused great psychological pressure on the Japanese devils, but also reminded many people that Chen Zhantang may have joined forces with He Bin. Peripheral handicap of major gangs before the final

This is also confirmed by the fact that they all received large sums of money to buy Chen Lili's victory. Hongmen's reputation in the international underworld was created by generations of Hongmen disciples. These people do not dare to attack Chen Lili easily.

But if she can be eliminated early on the gambling table, everyone would be happy to see it. So Chen Li Li always has such bad luck when drawing lots. With the help of Li Huqiu's super cheating machine, he got through it.

After Ridley's poker performance, her next opponent was even more difficult.

"Masao Asano!"
