Chapter 11: I'll Bet with You!

There is no curfew in Bianhe City, and the hustle and bustle from across the street makes Shoucai Street extremely empty and silent.

A mist rose at the end of the street, and the faint light of the white candle shone brightly, illuminating a young man coming out of the mist. Halfway down the street, the boy stopped in front of a shroud shop.

The longevity material shop, the pine ink plaque, the gold lacquer as the word, doing the dead man's business, made a little magnificent, like the largest longevity material faΓ§ade on this street.

At this hour, the shop had closed and the boy stepped forward and knocked on the door.

Xiao Er, who was woken up, yawned, sleepy-eyed, and after seeing the person standing at the door, he suddenly stretched his face, "Where did you come from, come here and knock on the door!" ”

Look at what this young man is wearing, the little guys in any rich family in Bianhe City are dressed more decently than him! It's really an eyeless one, and he doesn't weigh a few copper plates on his body, and dares to knock on the door of their shop.

"There is a dead person in the house, carry it to the end of the street! There is a special place for the dead, and there is no need to give money! If you don't have the money to choose a land, let the people be dragged there directly to the mass grave, and you won't even have to dig the pit! Xiao Er pointed in the direction of Yizhuang with a bad face, turned around and was about to close the door.

A hand suddenly stretched out behind him, Xiao Er suddenly screamed, and when he looked down, he saw that the elbow socket was pinched by the young man with two fingers, looking at his thin body, he didn't seem to be a strong one, but for some reason, pinching half of his arm was painful and numb, how could he still have the strength to close the door?

Xiao Er was shocked and annoyed, raised his head to scold, and met a pair of calm eyes.

The eyes are as deep as an ancient well, there is no sadness, no anger, the light of the lamp and candle is shallow, and the silence is terrifying.

The people who came to the longevity shop were all dead in the family, and the people who came were counted as one, all of them were crying and crying, sad and sad, even if they were not sad in their hearts, they had to make a filial appearance, and they couldn't wait to die on the coffin! For a person with calm eyes like this young man, it's the first time I've seen Xiao Er. It's just that for some reason, the quieter his eyes are, the more people feel hairy in their hearts, and if they want to scold, they just choke in their throats, and they don't dare to say again.

He didn't say anything, but the young man said, "How much silver does the best coffin cost in your shop?" ”

Xiao Er was stunned, shocked by the momentum of the young man, and forgot for a moment that Mo said the best coffin, even if it was the worst coffin in the shop, he couldn't afford to buy it in a poor dress, so he only told the truth: "Zi, Zi wood coffin, rot resistant and not cracked, the best coffin in the wood, the official eunuchs use this kind of coffin." There is still one bite in the store, and it costs more than 2,000 taels. ”

More than two thousand taels.

Ordinary people only have three or four taels of silver for food and clothing a year, and more than two thousand taels are enough for several lifetimes.

When the young man heard this, he nodded, let go of Xiao Er's hand, and turned to leave. Until his figure disappeared at the corner of the street, Xiao Er was still standing at the door of the shop, looking inexplicable.

Turning the corner of the street, the hustle and bustle gradually appeared, and the bustle came into view, and Twilight walked and searched, looked for two streets, and stopped at the door of a gambling house.

The gambling house carved fence and painted building, quite a situation, the lobby disposed of eight mahogany carved screens, on both sides of each stand a woman in green, jasper years, powder face with spring, Ying Ying smiled, the peony on the screen has added brightness.

Twilight looked up at the top of her head, if it weren't for the four big words "Spring and Autumn Gambling House" written on the plaque, she would have thought that she had arrived in the land of fireworks.

Welcoming customers with young and beautiful women is a common method used by merchants, but that was in the previous life of twilight, which was rare in ancient times. In ancient times, women's boudoirs were strict, and they did not show their heads, except for the land of fireworks, most of the business shops on the street welcomed customers. At the entrance of the gambling house, in addition to the small guys, most of them will stand a group of five big and three rough and vicious thugs.

This gambling house is interesting, the little thugs did not see any of them, two girls stood in front of the door, their posture was better than willows, smiling more than spring flowers, looking at passers-by Yingying, many men could not control their legs and feet.

Most of the people who come in and out of the gambling house are for money, but if you can catch your eyes by the way, no one will refuse.

The owner of this gambling house is a businessman.

"Childe is here to play a gambling game? Inside please! When the two green-clothed women saw that Twilight was only standing at the door and not entering, they all stepped forward and greeted her.

Twilight came to her senses and raised an eyebrow slightly. She is dressed like this, and the second child in the longevity shop thinks she is poor, and places like gambling houses should look down on her. There was not the slightest disdain in the eyes of these two women, and she was no different from the few ladies in gorgeous clothes who had just entered.

It seems that the owner of this gambling house is not only a businessman, but also a trainer.

Twilight nodded at the two women, then lifted her feet and entered the gambling house.

When she entered, the two women looked at each other outside the door, looking surprised. The Spring and Autumn Gambling House welcomes guests with maids is the whimsy of their sons, and even the sons of the Shi clan are called eye-opening when they come here, and ordinary people are even more unheard of. They welcomed the guests here, and they saw many gamblers, and a poor man like this young man either did not dare to lift his eyes when he saw them, or he did not even dare to enter the door. The young man's eyes were open, and he did not show a trace of surprise from beginning to end, quite like a person who had seen the world.

Can...... If you have really seen the world, why are you so poor?

Here, the two women were surprised, and over there, Twilight entered the gambling house, and she was also a little surprised.

I saw the red beam color tent, the warm candle hall, and the hustle and bustle filled the lobby. In the lobby, it is difficult to see how many gambling tables there are, but the dealer in front of each gaming table is a woman, wearing the same pothos clothes as the woman who welcomes the customer in front of the door. The gambling house is open on three floors, and the upper two floors are private rooms, the doors are closed, but the lights and shadows cannot be turned off, and the incense is incense.

It seems that this gambling house is not only in business for the powerful, but also for the common people. Unlike those who are used to doing powerful business and can't look down on the little money in the pockets of ordinary people, this gambling house wants to make a lot of money.

The owner of this gambling house seems to be not only a businessman who can train people, but also a complete philistine.

Just by welcoming customers and arranging, the owner of the gambling house can see through seven or eight points, Twilight Qing actually doesn't have much interest in this boss, she is just a professional habit. Also out of professional habit, she didn't rush to take a seat as soon as she entered, but stood at the entrance of the lobby and carefully swept every table.

Then, she set her sights on a gaming table.

There were the most people around the table, but it was not as noisy as the other tables, many people were hesitant, and the atmosphere was a little weird. Twilight glanced at the expressions of some of the spectators, and had a rough idea in her mind.

She walked over with her feet up, pushed through the crowd and entered, and sure enough, there was only one person sitting at the table.

The man was dressed in coarse cloth, with a large placket and a half-open shirt, and a beard that made his already ordinary appearance more like a rough man. So unkempt, this person sits in a somewhat elaborate posture - his legs are slightly separated, his hands are on the case, and his back is straight.

Very similar to the sitting posture in the army!

Look at this person again, although his appearance is mediocre, his eyes are like a hammer, and when he falls on people, he will smash people's hearts and panic. He glanced around impatiently and slapped the table, "Is there anyone who dares to bet with Lao Tzu!" ”

The gamblers around him were scared by his eyes, how could anyone dare to step forward?

At the back of the crowd, there were whispers.

"I don't know where this man came from, but he's so lucky today! Did you see the stack of silver tickets in front of him? I don't know how many thousand taels there are......"

"Tsk! A few thousand taels? Make a fortune! When did the master have this luck? ”

"Dream on you! This man has been here for more than an hour, and he hasn't lost! Did you see the Li Gongzi who just left? I lost so much that I took off my pants, and eighty percent went back to my house to move the rescuers! ”

The crowd was discussing, and the man was impatient, "Damn, Lao Tzu hasn't had fun yet, and if he doesn't come to the fuck, Lao Tzu will change to another family!" ”

As he spoke, he stood up.

As soon as he stood up, he was a head taller than the surrounding visitors, and as soon as his eyes fell into the crowd, he saw a group of people shrink their necks and get out of the way.

The man scooped up the silver ticket on the table, put it in his arms and was about to leave, when a young man's voice suddenly came from behind him.

"I'll bet you."

The voice was a little hoarse, and the man turned around and looked with the surrounding gamblers, only to see a young man sitting in the chair opposite. The boy was fifteen or sixteen years old, with thick eyebrows and thin eyes, a sallow complexion, a thin body, and plain clothes.

It's Twilight.

"You?" The man obviously didn't think that the young man's gambling skills were superb, "You have the ability to win Lao Tzu?" ”

The young man sat upright, without any anger at being underestimated, his eyes were calm, and he looked into the man's hand, "How much silver is the silver ticket in your hand?" ”

The man looked at his hand, then he was stunned and scratched his head, "Lao Tzu didn't count, let alone five or six thousand taels......

"Not so much, I only need three thousand taels."

"...... what?"

Not only was the man stunned, but the surrounding spectators were also stunned.

Three thousand taels, as long as it is? The tone is not small!

Someone laughed, "Boy, the hair hasn't grown yet, so don't come out to learn to gamble." Be careful to lose your pants ...... later."

"Smack!" Before the man could finish speaking, the young man slapped his hand on the table, and the crisp sound under his palm shook the surrounding silence. When he took his hand away, all the eyes were round, and their eyes were straight.

On the table, three copper plates are lined up.

The young man didn't look at anyone, just looked at the man, and his words were clear, but the people who heard it collectively collapsed, "Three cents, bet you three thousand taels!" ”――
