It was not easy to solve the troublesome matter in front of him, Yang Si smiled bitterly and said to Lu Xiaoxian: "I wanted to invite you to dinner, but now it seems that I can't eat, I'm really sorry!" ”

Yang Si looked apologetic, but Zhang Meng saw it in his eyes, but it was clearly fake, he was about to have a seizure, but was stopped by Lu Xiaoxian with his eyes.

"How can that work?" Lu Xiaoxian shook his head, "The most authentic snacks in Panzhou City, wouldn't it be a trip for nothing if you didn't taste them!" ”

Before the crossing, Lu Xiaoxian was still very particular about eating. During his eight years in Wangyun Mountain, he endured all the hardships, and the food could only be tasted in his dreams. Back in Kushui Village, it would be nice to be able to eat enough. Now that I have come to Panzhou City, I heard Yang Si say that there are the most authentic snacks, and I have already hooked out the gluttonous worms in my stomach, how can I give up.

After that, Lu Xiaoxian looked at Xie Yunxuan and was about to speak, but Xie Yunxuan said without hesitation: "Don't beat my idea, I don't care about the money for this meal." ”

It can be seen that Xie Yunxuan is determined to be an iron rooster.

In desperation, Lu Xiaoxian looked at Zhang Meng: "Do you have any silver on you?" ”

"Where is the silver!" Zhang Meng took out a few copper coins from his body and stuffed them into Lu Xiaoxian's hand, "That's all, it's all for you!" ”

Lu Xiaoxian counted them, there were a total of eight copper coins, and said to himself, "Enough!" ”

Zhang Meng and Yang Si didn't know what Lu Xiaoxian meant, and looked at him in a daze.

Xie Yunxuan's heart moved, as if he thought of something, but he didn't show it on his face.

"Brother Yang, I don't know if there is a gambling house in Panzhou City?" Lu Xiaoxian asked Yang Si.

Listening to Lu Xiaoxian's question, Xie Yunxuan smiled slightly, sure enough, he guessed correctly, Lu Xiaoxian was planning to go to the casino to make money.

Gambling is a compulsory course in the "Ninety-Five", and Xie Yunxuan has practiced dice and pai gow and the like. Since he came from the same family, Xie Yunxuan also wanted to see how Lu Xiaoxian's gambling skills were.

"Yes, of course!" When Yang Si answered, there was a strange look in his eyes.

Could it be that Lu Xiaoxian plans to go to the gambling house and use eight copper coins to win other people's silver? Even if he is lucky, how long will it take to win a meal?

Lu Xiaoxian ignored Yang Si's gaze at all, and said with a smile: "Brother Yang, lead the way!" ”

Yang Si led Lu Xiaoxian and Zhang Meng to the largest gambling house in Panzhou.

The façade of the casino looks unremarkable, but the interior is not only spacious, but also extraordinarily luxuriously furnished.

At this time, although the gamblers in the gambling house are not the most, they are still very lively.

Lu Xiaoxian paid attention to each stall, and after a while, he had a number in his heart, and there should be no problem in making a little money.

Finally, he chose a dice betting stall, and saw the opportunity to bet eight copper coins cautiously small.

Won, eight copper coins became sixteen.

After playing this, Lu Xiaoxian won every bet, and the capital in his hand turned over and over again like a somersault. Half an hour later, Lu Xiaoxian quietly won twenty taels of silver, and Yang Si and Zhang Meng, who were looking directly, were dumbfounded.

Xie Yunxuan couldn't help but secretly admire in his heart, Lu Xiaoxian's gambling skills were indeed high, at least higher than himself. Xie Yunxuan is still self-aware, but he doesn't mind it very much, after all, the level of gambling skills does not represent the level of strategy, it can only show that Lu Xiaoxian has put more effort into this area.

Lu Xiaoxian quietly asked Yang Si: "After eating the food you said, plus a few of us staying in the inn for a night, is twenty taels of silver enough?" ”

"Enough!" Yang Si nodded honestly.

Lu Xiaoxian accepted it when he saw it, and quietly left the gambling house with Yang Si, Zhang Meng and Xie Yunxuan.

Out of the gambling house, it was already dark.

Walking on the road, Yang Si asked strangely: "Brother Lu's gambling skills are amazing, I don't know which master he learned from?" ”

Lu Xiaoxian said lightly: "How can there be any masters, I'm just good at this one, I usually like to gamble twice when I'm fine!" ”

Seeing that Lu Xiaoxian didn't change his face when he talked nonsense, Xie Yunxuan shook his head with a wry smile, it seems that he still has to work harder to cultivate.

Of course, Yang Si also heard that what Lu Xiaoxian said was not the truth, and he no longer asked the bottom of the matter, and said with emotion: "With Brother Lu's gambling skills, don't say that in Panzhou City, even if it is in Luoyang, the divine capital, it is estimated that there will be no opponent!" ”

Xie Yunxuan's eyes flashed and asked, "Brother Yang has been to Luoyang?" ”

Yang Si was stunned, and immediately said: "I went there once a few years ago!" ”

Lu Xiaoxian and Xie Yunxuan looked at each other and smiled.

Zhang Meng pouted on the side and said, "I spent twenty taels of silver, and I won back twenty taels, as if I took a big advantage." I want to have your gambling skills, and I will never stop if I don't win a few hundred taels! ”

Lu Xiaoxian glanced at Zhang Meng, shook his head and said, "It's not as simple as you think, you don't understand the Tao here!" ”

"What do you understand?" Zhang Meng was very unconvinced, "Win money with your ability, and you don't steal and rob, what are you afraid of?" ”

Lu Xiaoxian said to Yang Si: "Brother Yang, you are an understanding person, tell him the Tao here!" ”

"Me?" Yang Si didn't expect Lu Xiaoxian to say this, and couldn't help but be stunned.

Lu Xiaoxian smiled slightly: "You won't tell me, you don't know the truth here, right?" ”

"Uh, that!" Yang Si pondered, "Brother Lu means that if you win a little money in the casino, the people in the gambling house may not be careful, but if you let go of your hands and feet and move money from others without any scruples, it is equivalent to smashing the field." Those who can open a gambling house either have the support of the government behind them, or they are inextricably linked to the underworld, and they are afraid that if they win, they will not be able to spend the money in the end! ”

Lu Xiaoxian stretched out his thumb to Yang Si: "Brother Yang is right, people make money from the casino, just like a vulture eats from the tiger's mouth, and can only wait for the tiger to eat and drink enough to leave, and then go to eat some leftovers." If you don't know how to grab food when the tiger is eating, it is easy to get hurt. ”

Hearing them say this, Zhang Meng was silent.

While speaking, Yang Si led the three of them into an alley, walked more than twenty steps, and came to the door of a wine shop.

Lu Xiaoxian looked at the wine banner in front of the door and asked, "Is this it?" ”

Yang Si nodded and took the lead in entering the wine shop.

The restaurant was small, with only enough space for four or five square tables and stools, and it was crowded.

Although it was time for dinner, there were not many customers, and business was very sluggish.

Sitting down at a square table in the corner, several people sat down.

An old man in his fifties, with an apron tied around his waist, came to greet them.

In such a small shop, there is no need to invite the shopkeeper at all, it must be that the shopkeeper and the guy are one.

"A few guest officers, I don't know what to order?" The old man asked earnestly.

Yang Siwei didn't want to blurt out: "Four parts of lamb leg bones, a crispy chicken, and a plate of pig intestines." By the way, four more servings of pork knuckle powder! ”

The old man said brightly: "A few guest officers want to eat pig's feet powder, which is considered to be the right place." Don't look at my small shop, but when it comes to pork knuckle powder, Panzhou City has nothing like our store. The pork knuckle meat in our store is soft but not rotten, fat but not greasy, and the soup is delicious, which will definitely satisfy you! ”

Xie Yunxuan interjected and asked, "Is there any wine?" ”

Lu Xiaoxian glanced at Xie Yunxuan, this guy's brain was spinning very fast, he must want to use the method of drinking to get Yang Si's words to probe him. It seems that he is quite interested in Lu Xiaoxian's first competition.

Yang Si didn't seem to be aware of Xie Yunxuan's sinister intentions, and said with a big grin: "There is a high-quality cinnamon wine, I have drunk it, and it tastes good!" ”

"Then come to the altar!" Lu Xiaoxian put a small ingot of silver on the table and said to the old man: "Be quick, we are all hungry!" ”

"Hey! Ay! The guest officer will sit down for a while, and it will be fine immediately! The old man took the silver and trotted away with a smile.
