Day by day.

Li Ba and his companions, also known as fellow prisoners, took all the time to train and prepared for the Corosé Cape Fight.

For the first few days, he also worried that his fellow prisoners could not form a tacit understanding in a short period of time, so he strictly urged training for more than ten hours a day.Later, the companions were able to cooperate with each other, but they were slow to get the news of going to the corner.

The two jailers patted their chests to promise that within ten days, they would be arranged to go to the Corosé Cape Battle.Who would have thought that it was now eleven days, and there was still no news.

For this reason, Li Ba is in a bit of a hurry.

As the jailer delivers his meals every day, Li Ba let Garvey go to inquire about the situation and get the answer, "Ross Chamber of Commerce has not yet come to the prison, it is estimated that it is fast, in these two days!"

Two days?

Li Ba touched the hairy head, and his face burst into a bitter smile.He was really worried that the two jailers would not do anything with the money and disrupt their planned plans.

Two days later, in the morning, I finally got the news.

Tomorrow!Tomorrow morning, the Ross Chamber of Commerce will come to prison!

The jailer came.They had arranged it, and all the 20 prisoners had been selected in the cell where Li Ba was located.

This is indeed good news!

The stone that hung in the heart finally dropped.Li Ba breathed, relaxed a lot.

The other inmates in the cell responded differently after learning the news.Mr. Clark looked pale, and Arquette seemed to have no such thing, and the two guys of Gavi and Babu were full of sadness and indignation, as if they were going to be generous tomorrow.

Some prisoners had a look of fear on their faces.Leah knows their thoughts.Everyone is afraid of death, at a critical moment.If there is no burden in the heart, it is impossible.

In this regard.Li Ba once again made an impassioned speech to cheer for the prisoners.

It's night.The moon is like water, quiet and peaceful.

Tomorrow is the day to go to the Corosé gladiatorial arena.If it had been so late at night, it would have been snoring like a thunder.Tonight, many prisoners in the cell are tossing and turning, and it is difficult to sleep.

“Liz!”Clark's voice came.

Li Ba turned around and saw the old man face to himself, and his thin hands groped in his chest.Seems to have something to take out.For a long time, he touched a piece of folded gray cloth and trembling and handed over.

“Dad, this is...” Li Ba hesitated for a moment, and did not reach out to pick it up.

“There’s something to bother you!”Clark laughed.Through the faint moonlight, Li Ba clearly saw the old man's ravine across the face, engraved with the vicissitudes of the years.

The old man asked Li Ba's thing to be very simple, tomorrow if he dies in the corner, I hope that Li Ba can take this thing.Give it to his relatives.

“Don’t worry, I’ll be fine with you!”Leba did not take it.Good words of relief.How could he not hear that the old man was arranging the after-off.

“Of course I trust you!”

Clark laughed.Directly put this ash cloth into the hands of Li Ba, and said: "This thing is very important!"I have an old bone, if I lose it when I play.That’s not good... you take it for me first and wait until the game is over.Give it to me again!”

He also gave a name to Li Ba.Another name.

Li Ba's heart is clear.Think about it, don't say much, take this gray cloth.At the same time, good words of comfort, give a promise: "Old father rest assured, on the corner, as long as there is me, will not let you be half hurt!" 」

“Good boy, I know what you mean!”

Dad Clark patted Li Ba's hand and said in a low voice: "On the wrestling court, don't have any distractions, your only thought can only protect your life."Dad has lived most of his life, enough is enough, he does not need you to take care of him, and he does not want to be your burden."

“Dad...”

Li Ba also wants to say.But he saw that Dad had shaken his hand, interrupted him, and smiled and said, "Sleep, keep your spirits up, and tomorrow you have to work hard!"

The old man lay down again.Soon there was a loud, moving snoring.Li Ba is feeling, and he cannot sleep.

Oh, and when—

In the morning, the heavy iron door sounded.

The prisoners, who had long since awakened, looked nervously, and climbed up to stand against the wall, waiting for the moment to decide their own fate.Today, even Arquette, who has always been slow to rise, is also standing against the wall.This strong man like a lion stood up more than two meters high, a full head higher than Leba.

Li Ba is also very heavy.Whether he can get out of trouble depends on today.

The iron door was opened, and a small team of twenty jailers with a long sword on their waists, shackled in their hands, and crammed into the small and dirty cells.The two jailers who were responsible for bringing them food to Li Ba were also among them.The bearded jailer, with a fierce face, swept the prisoner standing against the wall, and pulled open his throat and said loudly, "You pigs have heard the old man clearly, and those who called their names, come one by one to the door!""

Then the first person he called was Garvey.Garvey's expression was a little nervous, and immediately a jailer came to him, and immediately a jailer came to him, shackled his legs and ankles, and then escorted him out of the cell.

“Ronal, Bab, Clark, Dawn...”

Dawn is Li Ba.He gave himself a pseudonym to avoid being seen by someone who had a heart.

By the time the bearded jailer called out the name of Li Ba, the cell had been abducted seventeen prisoners, the eighteenth.When he came to the door, like his first fellow, he came to a jailer and put his feet on him, and then took him out.

Out of the cell, Li Ba finally saw the long-lost blue sky and white clouds.Out of the iron door of the cell, there is a small yard outside, the area is not large, only about ten squares.Standing in the courtyard, you can look up and see the blue sky.And the sun shines through the clouds, shining on Li Ba, making him feel the warmth that cannot be said.

Looking at the sky, Li Ba took a deep breath and experienced this long-lost breath of freedom.

“You yellow pig, what a fool to do!Let's go!"

There was a drink from the jailer behind him.Li Ba was pushed by a big hand to the outside of the courtyard, and he cursed in his heart.You bastards, you bastards, are the pigs who have no ass!

Get out of the garden.There are many buildings around the eyes, and there is a slate road with something going on at the foot.The look is wide open.Seeing the former companions walking east along the slate road.He did not wait for the son-of-a-bitch jailer behind him to open his mouth, dragging his heavy shackles and “wow” followed them.

The shackles on the feet are not very thick, but they are very heavy, afraid that they will not weigh more than 30 pounds, black and swarthy, and I do not know what kind of metal is made.Wearing this thing on both feet is inconvenient.

In his heart, he estimated that in his current state.This flap affects at least a quarter of the speed.The second character of the soul cannot be used, and can only rely on the only physical strength.Speed is affected, and strength will undoubtedly be weakened accordingly.

These are all things that cannot be done.To paraphrase an old saying, I am a knife, I am a fish.Little life is in the hands of others, can you still want to be treated fairly?

Following the slate path, Li Ba accelerated his steps and quickly followed the team in front.Behind him, two other prisoners were also taken out.Arquette is one of them.Now, the twenty prisoners who had registered for the fighting arena in their cell, no more or less, were all taken out.

Twenty prisoners.Plus more than twenty heavily armed jailers.This team marched on the slate road, through a dozen buildings, to a wide square.

Old distance.Li Ba had seen two carriages parked in the square.Specifically, there are two cage cars.The tall prison.Two heads are like camels, but there are no humps.Monsters full of blue scales, put together, to achieve this unique cage car.

This kind of camel, full of blue scales of the monster called the camel horse.It is a kind of mutant beast unique to the Western continent, with infinite force and gentle temperament, which can be artificially domesticated to carry live animals, or can be equipped with cavalry, and the use is comparable to that of war horses.

In the Western continent, there are commercials specializing in the hunting of domesticated camel horses.A good camel horse is worth a lot, and generally only the army cavalry, or the rich nobles, have the ability to equip.

Next to the cage, there were six or seven people standing.Two of them are old acquaintances of the sheriff.One is the warden of Barag prison, a middle-aged man in his 40s wearing a leather armour.The other was a gray-robed sorcerer who had given Li Ba a cloak to his own name, as if it were Neil.

As for the other guys, wearing fancy robes, it is not surprising that they are the owner of the Corose Battle, the people of the Ross Chamber of Commerce.

Under the prison guard's drinking order, Li Ba and his companions were taken to the cage car and lined up.Then the bearded jailer walked forward with a smile on his face and reported to the warden.The warden waved after listening, and the beard immediately retreated to the side.

"Mr. Anthony, all twenty prisoners are in the same, count them!"The warden smiled at a balding man in his fifties.

The bald man, whom he called Anthony, squinted at the row of prisoners standing in front of him, swept from left to right, and his eyes stopped on Li Ba, and said, "Sir, sir, there was an Oriental among these prisoners?"

"Oh, he's a spy caught by the Acrops... but after my interrogation with Mr. Neil, this guy is probably not a spy, and why he was sent to Balague prison by the Acrops as a spy, this is the master of Jeon!"When he said this, the director's face showed a sense of ridicule, and the look seemed very disdainful.

"The lord of the city has a clear reward and punishment, and Jayne will receive a reward of a hundred gold coins for arresting an oriental agent."Under the temptation of the bright crystal gold coins, Jean will not care whether this guy is a spy, he just wants to throw people to the prison chief here, you will go back to ask for credit, haha...” The bald man named Anthony stood on his stomach and laughed.

From the dialogue between the two, Li Ba heard some of the end.Nima, did not expect to be so valuable, no wonder that the gang of broken indistinguishable that day, directly sent themselves to this ghost place!

The anger in the heart has no effect, and now the wood has become a boat, or face the reality, playing a spirit to deal with the upcoming life and death battle.

"It's late, today's gladiatorial game is arranged, waiting for the use of people...Sir, the prison chief, we are still the old rules, a prisoner two gold coins, here are forty gold coins, you count!" 」

Anthony took out a purse and gave it to the warden.The latter took the purse, his eyes were lightened, his face was full of greed, he counted carefully, and then said, "My dear Mr. Anthony, my prisoner is much better than the previous batches, and you see, there are not only Orientals among them, but also savages."With the two of them participating in the event, it will add a lot of eye-catching hot spots to the audience, and your Chamber of Commerce will certainly rise in revenue... The price, can you see more?

Anthony listened, first frowning, then his eyes on Arquette, and after a long time, he saw him nod and say, "Yes, there is a savage, if not mentioned by the chief of war, I almost missed my eyes."So, since the chief of the warden has opened his mouth, and I will add five more gold coins, what do you think?"

"Five gold coins are too few, and it is not enough to ask my brothers to drink wine, my dear Mr. Anthony, and you shall add at least twenty pieces of gold!"

“Oh, that’s not in line with the contract we signed in advance...”

Two guys are bargaining.In the end, the bald old man Anthony gave ten more gold coins, and the prison commander was satisfied and had a chrysanthemum smile on his face.

“Have fun working together!”The two men smiled and shook hands.Then the warden looked at Master Neil, who was standing next to him, and did not answer his mouth, and the latter took out a string of small iron pieces similar to the key and handed it to Anthony.

After Anthony's right hand was picked up, he made a noble salute to Master Neil, and said with some respect: "There is Master Launier!"

Neil nodded, smiling.

The transaction ends.Anthony ordered that several of his men immediately go and open the cage door of the two cages.After the prison guards were evicted from the drinking order, 20 prisoners in Li Ba boarded the cage car.The cage looked very large, but after ten or so people entered, they still felt very crowded.The people at the Ross Chamber of Commerce put down the black curtain on the cage, and the prisoners inside immediately fell into darkness.

Probably a few minutes.Li Ba heard a few strange cries outside, and then the cage car began to move.

The cage car space is small, surrounded by black curtains, strict and solid, there is no light at all.The people inside felt like they were locked in a box, depressed and breathless.

The breathing of the companions around him, the nervous heartbeat, and the "squeak" sound of the car rolling turned, seemed particularly harsh at this moment.In the small space, the atmosphere is very dull, no one speaks, it seems to be quietly waiting, the moment to decide their own fate to come!
