I paused in my tone, looked at Cui'er and said, "You say, is there more girl in the carriage than the one sent to the next door?" “

"Yes, the slave feels the same."

My eyes lit up and said, "Cui'er, we have a goal in this town, let's go!" “

"The goal? Walk? Cui'er repeated, "Where are you going?" ”

"Back to the inn." I said decisively.

Hold Cui'er, I walked briskly down the streets of the town late at night.

We came out of the inn near evening.

Along the way, follow the route taken by the flow of people.

We walked almost all the streets that were linked together in the center of town.

Now back to the inn, the route chosen will naturally not be a big circle like just now.

I thought back to the direction I was walking when I came, let go of Cui'er's hand and said, "You follow me." ”

Cui'er followed me, and the distance was quick, and we had taken a shortcut in the direction of the inn by another convenient route.

At this time, the town, in terms of time, should be about to enter the most quiet time of the day.

I walked briskly through the streets, and Cui'er behind me didn't follow me.

I walked and walked, but my brow furrowed.

There was something strange about the situation.

At first, on the street where the teahouse was located, I once saw the neighboring brothels, hospitals, which attracted many customers.

Staying at the gate of the brothel and the courtyard, the women dressed in fancy clothes attract idlers who want to see the bustle even if they don't have the money to patronize.

That street is so lively.

But now it's the case, it's late at night. The flow of people is moving in the other direction in a regular manner.

That said, there is another place in the town that can attract these outsiders.

So, what kind of place would it be?

I thought of this and suddenly slowed down.

Cui'er hurried a few steps. He grabbed my arm and asked, "Why did you stop, didn't you just tell the slave maid that you want to go back to the inn immediately?" ”

"Cui'er," I said, without stretching my eyebrows, and for a moment I watched the crowd walking by.

It was discovered that most of them were heading in the direction of an alley away from the center of the town.

There, there must be something weird!

I think it's better to sit back on your guesses and take a trip than anything else!

So, I thought about it for a moment and said to Cui'er, "I've changed my mind now. It seems that we have to walk a little more, and we are not in a hurry to get back to the inn first. ”

Cui'er followed the direction of my eyes. I observed that I was keeping an eye out for the flow of people pouring into the alleys of the town. Immediately said: "Do you see that those people are strange?" ”

"Not bad." I nodded, glanced back at Cui'er and said, "You found out too?" I don't know what's in that alley? So many people have to rush over. “

"Isn't it another land of fireworks?" Cui'er took a few steps closer to me. He grinned and tugged at my sleeve and said, "If that's the case, do you still have to rush to see it?" “

I felt a sigh in my heart, why did Cui'er actually make such a joke today.

For a moment, my eyes glanced at Cui'er with some suspicion.

What came to mind was what happened in Qibei.

In the garden, when Liu Zhenzhen was still the doctor behind the scene who did not come forward, he once asked me to meet in Xueyue Tower.

At that time, I didn't know what kind of place Xueyue Tower was.

When I learned that this place was a place of fireworks, I joked with Cui'er about it, and I asked her, "Do you want to go with Childe and I'll have a look?" Maybe you can only see this once in your life. “

At that time, Cui'er's reaction was still vivid.

Counting the time, it has not been long, and now Cui'er is free enough to joke with me with such words?

My eyes darkened, and my eyes fell on the lake on the other side of the stone bridge.

Cui'er didn't notice my abnormality, thinking that I was still thinking about the purpose of the crowd running to that side.

She tugged at my sleeve again and said, "Do you need to think about it for so long?" Either go over and take a look, it's a big deal to see the signboard and then fold it back. “

"Or, just like that." Cui'er said with a grin and pouting.

"How?" My heart sank, and my eyes locked on Cui'er's face, "What do you have in mind, let's hear it." “

"I, what idea can the slave have, it's not like that," as she spoke, Cui'er grabbed a man walking by and said, "Excuse me, what is the place in the alley ahead, I first arrived, and I saw many people on this street going that way." “

Cui'er was pulled by a young man in his twenties, he was stunned for a moment, he didn't look at Cui'er, but his eyes focused on me.

Cui'er patted him on the arm and said, "This brother, what am I asking you?" “

The young man blushed, retracted his gaze and said to Cui'er with some embarrassment: "It's a casino over there, and they're in a hurry to gamble." “

With that, he leaned over and bowed to me, as if to say something.

Cui'er didn't wait for him to speak, and quickly pulled me forward.

"Hey, wait." The young man's voice could be heard behind him.

We were in the crowd for a few moments, and we were far away.

"Cui'er, you stop." I said with some annoyance, "It's all because I'm usually too indulgent to you." “

"Why as soon as you leave Qibei City, your courage is getting bigger and bigger."

I grabbed her with my backhand and flashed a few steps through the crowd into the alley.

"What are you pulling me to run, it's like the young man is going to eat you." I glanced at her coldly.

"Girl, why are you angry?" Cui'er looked at me and said, "Did the slave do something wrong?" The Lord has always said to do everything in his power to keep the girl safe. “

"It's not like you're a self-asserted protector." I glanced at her and said, "There's another ......."

I thought about it for a while, and then I said, "There is no next time." ”

"Since you have come out with me, every action must be under my command. Do you dare to do that next time? “

"Don't dare, don't dare," Cui'er waved her hand repeatedly.

I sighed and said, "I regret it a little. “

"Actually, I thought about it when I was in the teahouse. Originally, I tore up your deed of sale, and I shouldn't have taken you to the southwest again. “

"I should tell my senior brother to release you directly from the garden and give you another sum of money."

"In that case, you can choose where you want to go, even if you go to Sealand Women's Country, it is also a good choice."

"It's not like you have to follow me now, there will be dangers on the road."

"Cui'er, I really regret it." I looked at her deeply.

Cui'er's head shook like a rattle: "The slave doesn't leave." Be sure to follow the girl. “

"Why is that?" I asked as I looked at her strangely.

"Don't you still want to open a shop? I now have the credentials that my master gave me. I can go to Litong and get money for you. I don't even need to ask my teacher for it, the money is also the monthly salary that the old man gave to my disciples. “

"Besides, you're going to have the money to open a small shop. It's not too outrageous. “

"Cui'er, shall I let you go?" I emphasized one sentence.

"Hey, girl, now is not the time to talk about this, let's go to the gambling house first, if you still want to go." Cui'er said with a helpless expression.

I stood there and watched her take a few steps, then suddenly turned to look at me, her dark eyes unblinking.

"You can follow me if you want," I said in a deep voice. "But you have to give me a promise here, that every day after that, when you follow me, you will follow my instructions for what you do."

"If you can't do that, then you might as well go back to the garden and talk to the stewards as soon as possible."

In the night, Cui'er glanced at me, she lowered her head and was silent for a moment, and after a while, she whispered, "Okay." “

…… When I walked to the door of the gambling house, I could already hear shouting coming from inside.

I stood there and looked up at the plaque "Fortune Workshop" on it.

I said to myself, "The gambling house can still attract money, but it's almost the same as breaking the money." ”

Cui'er behind her grinned and said: "That's also a division of people, some people lose their fortunes when they enter the gambling house, and I heard that there are also people who lose their clothes." ”

"There are other people who can really make money in the gambling house and make him a lot of money."

I glanced at Cui'er meaningfully: "Then tell me, your son-in-law went to the gambling house today, did he lose or win?" ”

"The slave doesn't know." Cui'er glanced at me with a smile and said, "Whether you win or lose depends on your mood." ”

I laughed, reached out and patted her on the shoulder and whispered, "Makes sense." “

"Fortune and treasure, this son, please come in." The enthusiastic guy has come up to guide us in.

"Cui'er, reward one." I took out a folding fan from my sleeve and instantly unfolded the appearance of a handsome boy.

Yu Guang saw Cui'er's body tremble for a moment, and then took out some money from the purse she was carrying and handed it to the little guy who guided us in.

The little guy took the money and quickly stuffed it into his arms, he smiled and said, "Childe, you must be super lucky tonight." “

"Well, I borrowed your auspicious words." I raised an eyebrow and glanced at him and said, "You go down first, I'll walk around by myself and see if it's good." “

The little guy in the casino, who is used to observing words, heard my request, and had already received the benefits, so he quietly retreated.

I took Cui'er and walked in the casino.

I couldn't see the size of the casino outside, but when I walked in, I found that it was very big inside.

There are more than a dozen tables in the huge hall, and there are still many tables in the back hall that is separated.

The scale of the gambling house is so large, and there are many people who come.

Consider that at least a third of the men in the town are here.

Cui'er followed me to look at a few tables, and when she saw that I didn't speak, she came up and asked, "What do you want to play, or just look?" “

"How is that possible," I said with a smile, "how can anyone come to the gambling house and not gamble, if they don't gamble, what am I doing here?" “
