Good physical fitness made Jiang Wuwei recover very quickly, and after a few days, he was already able to go downstairs to the wine bar.

Because it is the only place of public entertainment on the island, the island's inhabitants always gather here in their free time. Unlike other bars, the guests here are very familiar with each other, and everyone gets together to talk and laugh, releasing the stress of life.

Fishermen returning from the sea will come to the wine bar for a drink before returning home to learn about each other's harvest, which has become a habit for the fishermen on the island, so when the fishing boat comes back, it is also the busiest time in the wine bar. Those who return with a full load are elated and talkative, while those who have little to gain complain about God's unfairness.

Another special feature of this bar is that there are three tables in one corner of the bar for fishermen to play cards, and there is no other entertainment on the island, so gambling money has become their best pastime.

There are three tables, two of which are for the guests to play by themselves, and whoever wins the money will take the initiative to leave ten or twenty yuan for the ba's pump. There was also a large table where Old Feller sat on the bank and gambled with the guests.

Old Ferrer and Olina are two people, one is responsible for greeting the guests to sell wine, and the other is accompanying the guests to gamble for money, each with its own responsibilities and its own pleasure.

Jiang Wuwei was bored upstairs, so he slowly came down by holding on to the handrail of the stairs, and the gunshot wound on his thigh was still faintly painful when he was walking, so he didn't dare to walk too fast.

Seeing Wuwei coming down, Olina hurriedly ran over to help him, Jiang Wuwei smiled and waved his hand at her, "I can do it myself, you can be busy, don't worry about me." ”

Olena's passion for Wu Wei aroused the jealousy of several young people who were drinking in the wine bar, and several of them watched Wu Wei's every move with hostile eyes, and they were hostile to the outsider who suddenly invaded the island, as they found that Olina cared for Wu Wei beyond the ordinary.

A large part of the purpose of the young people on the island was to get close to Olina, and now they suddenly found that the princess in their hearts was so kind to this foreign Chinese boy, and the fire of jealousy ignited in their hearts.

Jiang Wuwei instinctively felt these angry eyes, in the current situation, he could only avoid them, his body was now simply unable to fight with these unrestrained descendants of England. He looked around the rest of the bar, and found that Old Feller's gambling table was full of people, both playing and watching, and when he saw the gambling inaction, he suddenly came to his senses.

Jiang Wuwei hadn't sat at the gaming table for a long time, and suddenly seeing so many people playing cards stimulated his gambling spirit again. Jiang Wuwei slowly walked to the side of the gambling table, looked at the old Feller's table, and saw that the old Feller was clumsily dealing cards, it turned out that they were playing blackjack with two decks of cards.

Looking at Old Feller's actions to deal cards, you can know his level, in Jiang Wuwei's opinion, it is simply terrible. Old Feller's hands were rough and clumsy from the waves, and it was very laborious to touch the thin cards from the table.

With such a small amount of poker, if it is a master who can remember the cards when shuffling the cards, Jiang Wuwei stood aside and watched silently for a while, and found that the rules of their playing cards were a little different from those of the casino, much simpler, and the amount of bets was not large, at most ten yuan, it seemed that they focused on entertainment.

Jiang Wuwei watched for more than ten minutes, and found that the old Feller's hand was very smelly, and he broke the cards several times, so anxious that sweat broke out on his head, he sat in the village and others, others lost a maximum of ten yuan, and he had to lose dozens of dollars to a card, and the old Feller lost five or six hundred yuan after a while. He was so angry that his beard was pouting, and he kept cursing in his mouth. The more he played like this, the happier the guests became.

Seeing Old Feller's embarrassed appearance, a few people playing cards around him made jokes while betting, "Old Feller, are you going to lose the wine to us tonight?"

"Olena must be brought along, or no one will want this bar of yours. ”

Old Feller dealt his cards indignantly, and from time to time he shot back at these people, "Shut your foul mouth, if you want to hit my daughter's idea, no way! Look how Lao Tzu wins all your money, and in a moment let you get out of my bar with your bare ass......" Old Feller's words caused the surrounding guests to laugh.

Olena seems to have become accustomed to such scenes, and she only cares about her own business and does not look at these players.

The man who had won the money shouted loudly for Olena to bring the wine, and part of the money that Old Feller had sent out was taken back by Olena.

Old Feller finished a game, angrily threw the remaining cards on the table, and said to a few guests: "Damn, it's really unlucky, wait, I'll go and make it easier, go and win you again." ”

"Hurry up, don't waste time. The man next to him urged him.

Seeing this scene, Jiang Wuwei moved two steps forward and said to Old Feller, "I'll play a game for you." ”

Old Feller was stunned for a moment, and asked with some skepticism, "Can you do it?"

"Let me try, maybe. Jiang Wuwei said with a smile, and without waiting for Old Feller to agree, Jiang Wuwei's right hand gently wiped it on the table, and the playing cards scattered on the table were put away by him.

Jiang Wuwei blocked the cards with his other hand, and in the blink of an eye the playing cards became a neat stack, he did not shuffle the cards, but divided the poker into two parts from the middle, one hand held half of it, rubbed it with his thumb, and saw that the poker in both hands became a fan shape at the same time, and then the two hands held the scattered poker to the middle pair, all the pokers were evenly crossed together, and finally gently closed and handed over to the right hand.

Jiang Wuwei held the poker with one hand again, divided the cards into two parts with his middle finger, and then folded them in his hand several times, and finally put the cards on the table, and at the same time gently wiped them with his hand, and all the pokers spread out evenly in an arc.

All the guests at the gaming table, including Old Feller, were dumbfounded, all of them were stunned by Jiang Wuwei's magic-like movements, and they all looked at him dumbfounded, and the wine bar suddenly became very quiet, and no one made a sound for a long time.

Jiang Wuwei looked at these dumbfounded people, raised his hand in a dashing manner, and asked, "Who will cut the cards, please." ”

The noisy gaming table suddenly became silent, and the other guests in the bar looked curiously in this direction, not knowing what was happening.

Old Feller didn't care about the convenience anymore, he lifted the belt of his trousers, patted Wuwei's shoulder with his hand, and stretched out his thumb to him, "Okay, the young man will hand over to you here." ”

Jiang Wuwei said modestly: "I'll try it, I play a lot of blackjack but have never sat in the village, please don't care." ”

"It's okay, it's all mine if you lose. Old Feller said magnanimously, then dragged a chair from the side and sat next to Jiang Wuwei, watching the young man play cards excitedly.

Blackjack is in the hands of the player, Jiang Wuwei knows that if he wants not to lose, he has to do something, blackjack in the casino is generally with six decks of cards, put in the distribution box and send them out one by one. And here it is to deal cards in hand, and doing something in front of these people is a piece of cake for Wuwei.

Jiang Wuwei hates to play cards the most, in order to thank the old Feller for saving his life, Wuwei decided to make some money for the old Feller with a clear conscience, the key is to make him happy.

In order not to let others see that he was playing tricks when dealing cards, he deliberately lost once when he won two handfuls, and soon won back the money that Old Feller had lost.

Old Feller sat next to Wuwei, holding the money he had won, laughing happily from time to time, and he began to laugh at the few people who had just mocked him in turn, he waved the money in his hand, and said to a few people: "Haha, how about it, look at what this is? ”

The other guests in the bar were also attracted to watch them play cards, Olina also came over to stand behind Jiang Wuwei, silently watching him, she also seemed very happy after Wuwei won, and several young people who were already very jealous of Wuwei were even more unhappy when they saw this scene.

A few people whispered in the back for a while, and then came up to watch, and when Jiang Wuwei finished playing a game in the gap of shuffling, a young man said loudly to him: "Chinese boy, seeing that your card skills are so good, do you dare to play a few of us alone?"

Olena guessed that the few of them must not be well, and said angrily to the young man, "Tom, what do you want to do?"

This Tom was even more energetic when he heard Olina say this, and pointed his finger at Jiang Wuwei and said provocatively: "Boy, don't rely on women to protect you, if you have a kind, come and gamble with us, otherwise you will get out of Allah Island." ”

Jiang Wuwei didn't want to sit in the village from the bottom of his heart, and when he saw the young man who had opinions about himself just now, he thought that he just borrowed the steps to come down, so he smiled and said, "No problem, how do you want to play?"

Seeing that Jiang Wuwei was going to agree to them, Olina anxiously tugged at Wuwei's arm behind her and whispered, "Don't pay attention to them, these guys like to make trouble on the island." ”

Jiang Wuwei was already young and vigorous, and when he was provoked by Tom, he wanted to teach them a lesson, so Wuwei gently patted Olina's hand and said, "It's okay, I'll play with them." ”

Tom pointed to the three people next to him and said, "You plus the four of us, take turns to play Texas Hold'em, do you dare?"

"Haha, of course you can. Jiang Wuwei agreed with a smile, he said in his heart that I am the world champion of the Texas Hold'em Poker Tournament, and you really hit the muzzle.

Jiang Wuwei then asked, "What are you going to gamble on?" I'm penniless now, and I don't have a penny in my pocket. ”

Tom thought for a moment and said to Wuwei: "We bet with mud codes, five hundred yuan per person, and if you lose, please leave Allah Island." ”

"Okay, I agree, what if you lose?" asked Wuwei calmly.

"If we lose, how about we'll pay you the same amount of money for as many clay yards you win?"

Jiang Wuwei waved his hand and said with a smile: "I don't want your money, if you lose, from today, the four of you must listen to Olina and help her work for a year for free, do you agree?"

The four young men nodded in agreement as soon as they heard this, they wished they had a chance to get close to Olena, and it was a good thing for them to be able to help Olena with her work.

The people in the bar, too, were attracted by their bizarre bets, and immediately followed suit, shouting loudly to get started. There were only a few hundred people on the island, and they didn't look up and looked down, and they were all familiar with each other, and they all knew the thoughts of these young people.

Everyone dodged one after another, letting Wu Wei and the four young people sit down at the card table, and the people around them gathered around the three layers inside and three layers outside to watch the excitement, and there are few such attractive things on the island.

Old Feller gave each of them five hundred dollars in clay codes, all ten and twenty dollars, which were placed in front of the five people.

Tom and Olena asked for a brand new deck of poker, opened it with their own hands, drew the king out and threw it away, then shuffled the poker on both sides, and finally asked each person to draw a card to decide who would start the banking.

Jiang Wuwei smiled and said to Tom, "Don't smoke, you can be a banker first." ”

Hearing Jiang Wuwei say this, Tom was not polite, he shuffled the poker in his hand again, then closed it and held it in the palm of his left hand, and began to deal cards with his right hand, he first threw away the top card, and then gave it to four people in order, including his own two hole cards each.

After Tom dealt the cards, he put the poker in his hand on the table, picked up his two hole cards and took a sneak peek, and then waited for the person on the left to start betting.

There are two people in front of Wu Wei, one with the small blind and the other with the big blind. The small blind bet is five yuan, the big blind is ten yuan, when it is the turn of Wu Wei to bet, Wu Wei did not look at his hole cards at all, he said calmly: "We don't have to bother, I put the five hundred yuan all-in, everyone showdown, just use these two hole cards to compare the size." ”

Everyone looked at Wuwei with amazement, and he asked for a showdown before the three community cards were issued, which was too anxious, they had never seen such a gamble.

Jiang Wuwei saw that everyone looked at him, he smiled and said, "My hole card is a pair of old kings." Three more community cards are also mine, I don't believe you can open it and take a look. ”

The people around saw that Wu Wei didn't move his hole cards, and they were all wondering if this Chinese young man was a god, how could he know his hole cards? A person behind Wu Wei couldn't help but reach out and lift his hole cards, and it was indeed a pair of Ks.

A few people couldn't help but exclaim, "Ah, God, it's really a pair of Ks." ”

Tom and the other three looked at each other for a moment, then Tom threw his hole cards on the table, pointed at Wuwei and said, "You must be cheating!"

"I want to gamble and lose, everyone can see that it was the cards you dealt, and I didn't use these two hole cards at all, how can I cheat?"

"Well, in order to convince you of your loss, I will let each of the four of you sit on the bank, and if I lose once, I will leave here immediately. Wuwei calmly looked at the four people and said.

Everyone thought that they had heard it wrong, thinking that this Chinese young man was too crazy, even the gambling king would not dare to say such a big thing. If he wins once, everyone can still believe it, but it is really a bit of a fantasy to win four times in a row.

The second man took the poker from Tom's hand, shuffled the cards four or five times, and then began to deal the cards, and when he had dealt the hole cards of the five people, all four of them rushed to touch their two hole cards and secretly checked them.

Wuwei still didn't move his hole cards, he put his hands in front of his chest, looked at the four people and said with a smile: "This time my hole card is a ten point and a J, if the community card is sent out later, I can form a straight flush and still win you." ”

The young man sitting in the bank looked at the poker in his hand in disbelief and then sat down on the seat all of a sudden, as Jiang Wuwei said, if the cards were dealt, he would just be a straight flush.

“My God.” The people around (my God) couldn't help but exclaim.

Wuwei looked at the four people who were stunned, and asked softly, "Do you still want to gamble?"

The four young men knew that they had met a master today, and the result would be the same if they continued to gamble, Tom said curiously: "We lost, we kept the agreement just now." But I wonder why? How do you know your hole cards?"

Jiang Wuwei stood up on the table and replied, "I'm tired and need to go upstairs to rest." With that, he walked slowly towards the stairs.

The people in the wine bar all stared at Jiang Wuwei intently, hoping to see something from this mysterious oriental youth. I don't know who suddenly said, "The gambling king, he must be the gambling king." ”

The news of the presence of a gambling king in Old Ferrer's bar soon spread throughout the island of Anla, and the people on the island gathered at the bar to catch a glimpse of the gambling king.

Jiang Wuwei didn't come out after returning to his room, because he was young and vigorous, and he also wanted to teach a few young people a lesson, so he showed a few hands, and Jiang Wuwei regretted it in his heart, he shouldn't show off his skills, maybe it would bring unnecessary trouble to himself. In addition, Wuwei remembered that Olena had said that she didn't like gambling, and Wuwei was worried that he would disappoint Olena by doing so.

The next morning, old Feller knocked on the door of Wuwei's room. Jiang Wuwei had great respect for this old man who saved him, and hurriedly asked Old Feller to sit down.

Old Feller looked at Jiang Wuwei with a smile and said happily: "Young man, I fished you out of the sea, and when I saw you, I knew that you were not an ordinary person, I really didn't expect you to have such a high gambling skill." ”

Jiang Wuwei has been coming to Anla Island for half a month, living in Old Feller's wine bar, but the old man has never asked about his life experience, nor why he was injured, Wuwei knows that Old Feller has a mind as broad as the sea. Now I see that the old man mentioned yesterday's incident to himself, so he doesn't want to hide anything from the old man.

"Uncle Ferrer, I'm going to make you laugh, in fact there is no gambling at all, I used some little magic yesterday, these things are useless in the casino. Jiang Wuwei said honestly.

"Oh, really, I saw you win against them, how can you say it's not gambling?" asked Old Feller curiously.

"Haha...... I'm telling you the truth, my mom is a magician, I grew up watching my mom play poker, so I have a good ability to read and remember the cards, Tom they shuffle the cards in the wrong way, I can see where each card is and remember them. The dealers in the casino are professionally trained, and when they shuffle the cards, they don't even notice the cards. I only use tricks instead of gambling, which can be used by ordinary people, but don't work in casinos. ”

"Oh, I see, I really thought you had superb gambling skills, everyone thought you were a gambling king, and they all wanted to learn some skills from you and prepare to go to the casino to gamble. ”

"Uncle Ferrer, I'll tell you the truth, don't believe any gambling tricks, these are deceptive tricks, and they are of no use when you enter the casino. Jiang Wuwei took a deck of pokers from the side as he spoke, and showed it to Old Feller.

"Uncle, I can give you any cards you want. Wu Wei sent out a royal flush in front of Old Feller as he spoke.

Then put away the poker, quickly washed it a few times, and then spread the poker on the table, and a dragon from A to K was displayed in front of Old Feller's eyes, looking at the dazzling movements of Wuwei, Old Feller was amazed.

"These are just tricks, my mom is better than me, many magicians know this, it's not gambling at all. I do play in casinos a lot, but I don't rely on these things. ”

Old Feller said from the bottom of his heart: "You are very honest, young man, and I like you very much. It's rare to have such a good skill but not deceive people. Old Feller left the room of Wu Wei after speaking.

After a while, Olina silently walked into Wuwei's room, Wuwei looked at the simple and beautiful girl, and said embarrassedly: "I'm sorry Olina, I ...... I didn't tell you I could gamble, so please don't blame me. ”

"You don't have to blame yourself, I haven't asked you before, seeing that you are so proficient, you must have gambled in the casino a lot?" said Olena lukewarmly.

"I ...... I ......" Wuwei couldn't panic at all under the gaze of Olina's kind and selfless eyes, and he didn't dare to look at Olina's clear eyes, so he had to lower his head and whisper: "Yes, I used to play in the casino." "Wuwei, this is the first time I feel that gambling in a casino is an unspeakable thing.

Without saying a word, Olena turned and walked out with a calm expression.
