C1553 Zhao's childhood
Today was the day of the finals, so no matter what happened before, he could temporarily put it aside. As for whether or not he could win in the end, it all depended on Bi Changsheng's ability. Zhou Hao's goal was to help Bi Changsheng become the champion, but he himself did not care.
There were only eight contestants in the finals, and according to past practice, this competition would be broadcasted by a television station, just like the private television station in Hong Kong's Wireless Station or the Asia Television Limited Station. They knew that the ordinary citizens of Macau also liked to gamble, so this gambling competition would definitely have a very high viewership rating.
The broadcast of the competition would not be restricted by private television stations, especially under the influence of He Hongsen, no one would interfere, as for which television station was broadcasting the competition, Zhou Hao had no interest in knowing, he just wanted to know, if it was broadcasted by the television stations, how could they cheat without being discovered.
The television station's camera was like a surveillance camera in a casino. If something was wrong, it would be discovered easily, but Zhou Hao did not care too much about it. After all, he had seen the surveillance cameras before, he knew that all the Casino experts had the ability to avoid being discovered.
Xiao Zhao was not worried too much about Zhou Hao. She had fought with Zhou Hao before, and she had also noticed Zhou Hao before. At that time, he hadn't learned from the Gambling Devil, and he could already control herself and prevent herself from being caught cheating.
Unfortunately, she didn't know that when Zhou Hao met her, he did not use any gambling skills at all. If he was discovered cheating, it would be strange, but Zhou Hao was completely relying on his own abilities.
This was one of the places where the competition was held previously, but it was not Zhou Hao's place. It was said that it was Bi Changsheng's place, which was also the location for the recommendation groups in Macao.
Zhou Hao and Xiao Zhao arrived a little earlier, but when it was time, there were not many people present. Yesterday, they had already decided on the participants for the finals, and none of them came. Bi Changsheng had participated in a few finals, so he was naturally not in a hurry, but Jingxi Mahjong Devil did not know if it was because he was too excited last night.
"Hubby, I told you that we should be late today. Look, no one that's participating in the finals has come. We came early this time." walked into the competition grounds, seeing that other than the staff members, none of the participants had arrived yet, he frowned and smiled.
Zhou Hao was not anxious either, he smiled and said: "Don't worry, let's take a look at the competition grounds first. If we are to compete later, maybe we will need to make use of the grounds' convenience in order to be able to unleash our true strength, it isn't a bad thing for us to come here earlier, what do you think!"
Before entering, he had to register his identity, no matter if it was a competitor, or the spectators who wanted to watch the competition. The staff knew that Zhou Hao was one of the eight participants, so they did not dare slight him and brought him and Xiao Zhao to the VIP lounge politely.
Furthermore, to be able to reach this stage, no one was not from a wealthy family, and if they had their own VIP room to rest in, then it would mean that their services would be there. Zhou Hao felt that He Hongsen's business mind would be above his gambling skills.
If He Hongsen was only a normal gambler, then he would not have such achievements today. Otherwise, how could such a gambler in this world only have such a Gambling King? Zhou Hao thought for a bit and felt that there was nothing wrong.
Ever since Xiao Zhao regained her original appearance, she did not need to pretend to be a lady. She walked into the VIP lounge, looked around, and frowned: He Hongsen, this Gambling King, has entertained all of you with snacks.
He felt that when he was drinking tea, he could be calm and collected. Although the competition was not important now, but after this competition, He Hongsen would definitely know of his existence. Next, he would have to face the Gambling King.
After Xiao Zhao finished speaking, she saw that there was no reaction from Zhou Hao, so she walked over to Zhou Hao and received the tea from him. Then she started to make tea for Zhou Hao skillfully, because beauties were different.
"Xiao Zhao, you even know tea ceremony? I thought you knew how to drink, other than gambling, even martial arts. Let me have a taste of your cooking!" Zhou Hao remembered Xiao Zhao's identity as the Holy Maiden, and asked in her heart while laughing. While the Holy Maiden was making tea for him, she was really impressive and mighty.
Xiao Zhao's hands did not stop moving, as if she was preparing tea, Xiao Zhao had also become very calm, and said with a slight smile: "Hubby, you might not be able to imagine, that it would not be that simple to become a Holy Maiden in the Devil Cult, although I am unable to cultivate due to special reasons, but those ancient abilities of mine, I have not been reduced at all, and although our Devil Cult has declined, those elders do not think that there will be a day when we will be able to return to the glory of the past."
Zhou Hao could understand, whether it was the Devil Cult or the elders from the martial sects, they all believed that there would be a day when their sect would recover, so their sect's skills and all kinds of knowledge were not delayed, allowing the younger generation to continuously learn, even if they felt that it was useless, they still had to learn.
His own sect only had him, his senior brother, and a martial nephew. It was not so much about returning to the glory that he had back then, but instead, it was filled with ambition. He had seen many movies and novels before, and Zhou Hao knew what those people were thinking.
"Xiao Zhao, then you must have had a hard time learning about knowledge that you don't like. You truly are a pitiful child." Zhou Hao could not help but joke as she thought of this.
Xiao Zhao glared and said: "Hubby, you're still laughing! "I am really pitiful. When I was learning these things, I could not remember. I have been hit countless times. Those elders all had a straight face. Even I feel like I was enslaved by them and can't understand family love at all."
Zhou Hao didn't say anything, and quietly listened to Xiao Zhao recount her childhood, "I still remember when I was learning the Lil 'Red. I was only seven years old, and my hands and feet weren't very nimble, so I pricked my finger many times. Those elders not only didn't feel bad, they even forced me to continue learning.
"This could be because they really did use the ancient thoughts and thought about the current situation. Female red doesn't seem to be an object of embroidery, but rather to temper your temperament. This is one of the basic requirements of being an ancient lady. They probably have this goal." Zhou Hao comforted Xiao Zhao as he listened to her sad childhood.
Xiao Zhao snorted: "Isn't that their goal? If my martial arts do not work, then I will become a lady. Perhaps, in the future, I can marry into a large sect and help our Devil Cult recover its former glory. It's just that in this era, this move is no longer effective.
Zhou Hao nodded his head: "Yes, in this era, although there will still be political marriages, but to have sects help Devil Cult recover its former glory, that is indeed impossible. Your elders are indeed thinking too much, now do they understand the logic?"
Xiao Zhao shook her head and said helplessly: "These elders are all so stubborn, if not for the fact that the teachers need to live, they would not even want to start a business, and the ones taking care of the business now are all from the younger generation. Those elders only know how to cultivate everyday, and think about what kind of method to restore their sect."
Zhou Hao shook his head. Regardless of whether one's Devil Cult was good or bad, this kind of sect that was similar to a religious sect would definitely have more faith in them than a normal sect.
Thinking from another perspective, Zhou Hao suddenly felt that being together with Xiao Zhao had also helped the Devil Cult. With his current financial power, he could increase the Devil Cult even if that wasn't his own idea, as long as he could give the Devil Cult a little bit of help, they would be able to have a foothold in Macao.
Thinking up to here, Zhou Hao really didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He wanted to borrow power from the Devil Cult to have a secret power in Macao, but Devil Cult could be developed with his help. It seemed that he and Xiao Zhao really had the same interests.
"Xiao Zhao, you and I together, we seem to have a win-win situation of killing two birds with one stone, which can completely help your Devil Cult to recover. Why don't you just become the Sect Leader of your Devil Cult, at the very least your position should be higher than an elder, so they can't force you to do anything." Thinking about that, Zhou Hao suddenly said.
Xiao Zhao scoffed, "Hubby, you really have thoughts, you actually intend to make me your Sect Leader. I seem to have forgotten to tell you, Holy Maiden is actually Master of Devil Cult's successor, and the current Sect Leader is my Master.
Zhou Hao was startled, he never thought that Devil Cult would actually be this kind of system, it was different from what the rumors said, he thought that the Holy Maiden was just a symbol, and now it seems that he was actually a power faction of the future. This way, he wouldn't have obtained the Holy Maiden, but the future Pope.
"What's wrong? Very surprised? I still thought that I might be the Sect Leader of the Devil Cult in the future, so this future Sect Leader is now one of you. " Seeing Zhou Hao's expression, they had already guessed what he was thinking, and laughed: "Don't think like that, I'm no longer considered the Holy Maiden, but your woman. How can I continue to be the Holy Maiden?
Remember the love letter, everyone cheer for the top
