Chapter 19: The Treasure Jumping Case

"Mung bean cake, where's the eldest lady?" The guy at the gambling house hurriedly said to the maid. The maid pointed to the kitchen and said, "The eldest lady said on a whim that she wanted to cook a salted duck for the eldest young master, and she is busy in the kitchen." ”

The gambling house guy rushed to the kitchen in a hurry, something big happened, how could the eldest lady still have time to cook. "Big ...... Miss...... Something is wrong! He pushed the door and entered, and found that the eldest lady's round face was blackened by fire, like a door god.

"What's wrong?" I asked impatiently, really, these subordinates know all day long that it is not good, it is not good, and some good things are also called gone.

I took a big spoon and scooped a little bit of the usual taste, wow, it's salty, put some water in it.

The man was about to cry when he saw me so slowly. "There's an accident in the gambling house, go and take a look!"

Seeing that he didn't look like he was lying about the military situation this time, I packed up my clothes, wiped my face and ordered: "Prepare a sedan chair." ”

By the time I got to the casino, it was already full of people. Seeing that I was coming, they hurriedly made way for me, and the old butler was already waiting for me there.

"The housekeeper has worked hard, what's going on?" As soon as I sat down, the people in the gambling house calmed down, and there was nothing that could not be done when the proprietors came.

The old housekeeper served me tea, and then pointed to a middle-aged man with a tiger's back and said. "His name is He Yingwu, he is a famous local dart master, one of his apprentices lost money in the gambling hall and refused to give money, so he came to jump the treasure game for his apprentice."

As soon as I heard it, my heart immediately became happy, I have always heard that there are hooligans who come to jump the treasure game, but I have never seen it with my own eyes, and this time I have a chance.

"He Yingwu, are you really determined to jump the treasure game?" The treasure jumping game is a desperate thing, and it's no joke.

He patted his chest and said nonchalantly: "Yes, I'm going to dance your family's treasure game today!" ”

"Okay, okay, do you understand the rules of the Treasure Jumping Bureau?" I listened to those people talk about the treasure game every day in the tavern, and I knew the rules very well.

"Yes, of course I do, look at me!" After saying that, he lay on the ground, hugged his head tightly with both hands, and shrunk into a braised prawn. I looked, hey, this guy is really determined to jump my treasure case.

"Okay, good, it's a man, butler, please give out the treasure of our gambling house!" Hehe, what is the treasure of the town, it is not a valuable thing, but four three-foot-long thick wooden sticks specially used to deal with these people who make trouble and jump the treasure case.

He Yingwu saw that we were going to do it, he was even happier, as long as he passed this level, he would be considered a treasure game.

"Miss, our people are ready." The old butler whispered in my ear, I nodded, and then looked at He Yingwu on the ground. It seems that he is really ready to play a bachelor with me and jump the treasure case.

"Okay." I clapped my hands. "Come on, hit him on all sides!" The thugs from the four gambling houses rushed up. They took thick sticks and beckoned to He Yingwu.

Of course, you can't play anywhere. Only pick the thick part of the meat, and never hit the head and crotch. After beating the front and back, if He Yingwu screams in pain, or snorts twice, even if he fails, he will not only be beaten in vain, but will also be laughed at by the people on the rivers and lakes.

He clenched his teeth, and no matter how much others hit, he didn't make a sound.

"Be careful, don't hit someone too hard, and beat someone to death." Although the case of jumping treasure is played by others, it must not be killed, otherwise the gambling game will pay a large amount of pension. And I just wanted to see if he could make the jump, and I didn't want to actually kill him.

After fighting for a while, seeing that he was really able to take it, I waved my hand: "Stop." Then he asked someone to carry He Yingwu to the infirmary and ask the best doctor to treat him well.

"Forget it, it seems that he really succeeded in jumping into the treasure case. In the future, give him a fixed amount of money every month and let him come and get it on time. I shook my head helplessly, it seemed that he would eat my gambling house for the rest of his life.

When I came back from the gambling house, I was not in a good mood, not because I was heartbroken about the money, but because I didn't understand why he wanted to jump the treasure case, He Yingwu didn't lack so much money, forget it, I don't want to care too much about other people's affairs.

In the past, when I watched others talk about the treasure jumping game in the tavern, I always thought that the people who jumped the treasure game were heroes, but now that I look at it, it's really helpless.

I was rocking all the way in a sedan chair, when suddenly the sedan chair driver screamed and stopped. I was thrown and almost didn't get out of the car. What's wrong? They're never so careless.

I immediately came out and found the palanquin drivers surrounding a man lying on the street.

"What's wrong?" I asked, confused. In front of the door of an inn, I saw a man running the hall, looking at the man lying on the street with disdain.

"This man is a scoundrel, he has lived in our inn for two months, he eats and drinks us, and now he refuses to give us a penny, so the shopkeeper angrily told us to beat him up and throw him out."

I went over and looked at the man, he was all dressed in shabby clothes, but he still had a bookish air and looked dignified, not like a scoundrel. And he was beaten all over his body, and now he is unconscious.

I sighed, what kind of world is this, compared to them, I am so happy.

"How much money does he owe?" I opened the money bag.

The runner counted and said, "Ten taels and five dollars." "I took fifteen taels of silver out of my pocket." I gave him the money, and you take him to the hospital to see a doctor with the rest, he doesn't look like a scoundrel, and if he is willing to do things after he gets better, let him come to Baofu to find me. ”

The runner thanked me happily, and I smiled and left in a sedan chair.

I didn't pay attention to this matter, I thought that this man would not come to me, at least not in the short term, but the next day he found Bao Fu with a body injury.

I looked at him with a blue nose and swollen face, and couldn't help but wonder: "This son, ...... you Are you okay? Didn't they take you to the hospital? "His swollen face is bigger and rounder than mine.

"Thank you Miss for your kindness, they took me to see it, I'm much better, I'm willing to do things for Miss to repay Miss for paying the bill for me."

I thought to myself, then you are too anxious, forget it, since he wants to, then stay in the house.

"Childe, your surname?" I politely said that this man looks more gentlemanly today than he was yesterday, and I think he may be a reader

"Don't dare, the cursive word Shou Yucheng. Miss called me Jade Chengxing. He looked up at the young lady in front of him, since he was in trouble in the capital, this was the first person willing to lend a helping hand to him, and when he found Cousin Ouyang, he must thank this young lady.
