Chengdu, Xindu County, Orphan Street

Since Tang Xiaosan picked up the injured Zhao Yun at the door and got 50 taels of silver for nothing, the itch in his heart, the itch in his mouth, and the itch in his hand, eh, not to mention how itchy it is. Well, spending money is always the best way to stop itching.

"Old man Zhang, stand up, don't run, Lao Tzu is not here to rob you of sugar gourd drops today."

An old man wearing a broken straw hat, holding a sugar gourd, saw Tang Xiaosan appear, and was about to escape, but Tang Xiaosan grabbed his sleeve.

"Little San, you were like this last time, I can't run away. A sugar gourd only makes a few bucks, you have eaten my sugar gourd for several years, just do the folks in the township, don't twist it to my expense. ”

"Talk about that? Lao Tzu not only has to pay off the money owed to you today, but also buys all the sugar gourds on this pole. ”

Tang Xiaosan angrily took out a tael of silver from his arms and threw it over, although she often eats white food, but she hates others saying that she eats white food, this is the so-called shameless but to save face.

Old man Zhang saw something shiny flying towards him, and hurriedly reached out to catch it, put it in his mouth and bit it.

"It's really silver, Xiaosan, your baby is rich!"

"What's the matter with your ball, is it enough?" Tang Xiaosan snatched the old man's sugar gourd pole.

"Enough, enough, these two pieces of silver are enough for me to sell a month's worth of sugar gourds." Old man Zhang smiled happily, "No wonder I heard the magpie cry early this morning, it turned out to be a noble person when I went out!" ”

"You climb away with Lao Tzu, now you know that Lao Tzu is a nobleman!"

After Tang Xiaosan finished speaking, she didn't pay attention to Old Man Zhang, she pulled out a sugar gourd from the wooden pole, took a few bites indiscriminately, and threw it directly on the ground without waiting to finish eating.

"Buy a batch, having money is comfort!"

Subsequently, Tang Xiaosan continued her nouveau riche shopping journey.

"Boss Li, let's have two cages of meat buns."

"Didn't get it? You treat Lao Tzu as a blind man, and Lao Tzu has a lot of silver for you. ”

"Boss Wang, here are two roast chickens."

"What? You didn't get it either? The silver didn't get it, one or two Harpies poked it. ”

"Sister-in-law Ma, come and make me a dress."

“……”

In this way, Tang Xiaosan walked all the way, bought all the way, ate all the way, and after half a day, she was full of big bags and small bags. Finally, before she knew it, she came to a place that haunted her dreams.

"Buy and leave......"

"Big, Big, Big"

"Small, small, small"

"Oops, the leopard has multiplied 10 times, I just wanted to bet on it!"

Xindu Party Gambling House is the largest gambling house in Xindu County. Tang Xiaosan has to come here to play a few hands every time he gets money, but he always loses more and wins less. If you lose, you want to win, if you win, you want to win more, and it makes sense to lose if you gamble for a long time. Although Tang Xiaosan also knew these truths, she always wanted to win back the money she had lost, and she lost more this time and again.

Today is different, Tang Xiaosan feels that he has enough capital, no matter how he says it, he has to go to Bo Yibo, maybe he can win back the money for a carriage. She thought about it, she still had 45 taels of silver, and she only took 5 taels out to gamble, and if she lost, she left, and if she won 5 taels of silver, she left.

In this way, Tang Xiaosan brought sugar gourd poles, meat buns, and roast chicken...... Walked into the Xindu Party Gambling House. The gatekeepers are all local acquaintances, otherwise she looks like she is fleeing, I am afraid that she will not be able to enter the door of the gambling house.

Although there are a variety of gambling equipment in the Xindu Party Gambling House, Tang Xiaosan likes to play dice the most because it is simple and rude. 1-9 points are small, 10-18 points are large, and the size is 2 times the loss, and 3 points of the same number are leopards, and the loss is 10 times. Tang Xiaosan didn't know any gambling skills, and she didn't dare to make a fortune in the gambling house, but judging from her experience in the gambling house for several years, the more people bet on whichever side, the easier it is to lose.

"The rules of the gambling house, bet first, and then shake the dice."

As soon as the dealer's voice fell, many people began to bet. Tang Xiaosan was waiting, she wanted to see which side had fewer people, so she would bet on whichever side, but she looked at it, the number of people who bet on the size was about the same, only the leopard and no one bet. So, she decided to wait and see.

"Gollum, Gollum......"

The dice rolled around in the dice cup, tugging at the heartstrings of all the gamblers, they were praying, expecting, just a few seconds of shaking the dice, many people left cold sweat on their foreheads. In this cup, they may become rich in an instant, or they may go bankrupt. This is the charm and magic of gambling, which makes many people addicted to it and can't extricate themselves. Tang Xiaosan didn't bet, so she naturally didn't have any burden in her heart.

"Wow, 3 6s!"

"Haha, I won I won! Isn't 3 6s the maximum? ”

"Win a fart, you have a Haban braincase, 3 points of the same are leopards!"

"Hell, it's a leopard again!"

"I'm your soul, Lao Tzu has done it for nothing this month!"

No one bet on the leopard in this game, and the money was all for the dealer to win. Tang Xiaosan was thinking in his heart, just now at the door he heard a leopard coming out of the last handful, and this one is a leopard again, should it be a leopard next? Tang Xiaosan was a little hesitant in his heart, whether to bet or not?

Just as Tang Xiaosan hesitated, a new round of gambling began.

"Lao Tzu doesn't believe it's a leopard again, I'll bet big!"

"I'm betting big, too!"

"I'm betting small!"

“……”

When the dealer saw that everyone had finished betting, he quickly shook the dice, and this time he shook it, and everyone shouted their bet points.

"Big, Big ......"

"Small, small......"

"Leopard, leopard!"

Hearing this voice, there was actually a person who took the leopard.

"Which turtle dares to bet on the leopard, believe it or not, Lao Tzu hacked you to death!"

"You are a fierce hammer, Lao Tzu bets on the leopard to keep you eggs! Do you have the ability to bet on it? ”

Seeing that the two gamblers began to push each other, the dealer made a color next to the statue, and immediately four powerful thugs came out and threw the two out.

"Dare to make trouble in the Xindu Party Gambling House, you two are impatient?"

"Buy fart, you pay for Lao Tzu's silver." When one saw that he had been thrown out, he immediately pounced on the other.

"Get away, Lao Tzu hasn't asked you for compensation yet? Believe it or not, Lao Tzu shouted at someone to kill you! ”

Neither of them dared to trouble the Xindu Party Gambling House, so they began to scuffle on the street. This kind of thing is often seen at the door of the gambling house, and everyone has long been surprised. Tang Xiaosan didn't have the heart to go out to see Mo Huo (look strange), she felt that she had lost a lot, because the third one was a leopard again, she knew that she should have bet on the leopard with 5 taels of silver, 5 taels multiplied 10 times, and she would be able to have another 50 taels of silver now!

A new game of gambling has started again, and everyone is now a little disconfident, but the only thing they firmly believe is that it is impossible to play four consecutive sets of leopards, so there are still people who bet big and small one after another. Tang Xiaosan gritted his teeth, and finally put 5 taels of silver on top of the leopard.

"Haha, I'm laughing to death, there are still people who dare to bet on leopards!"

"Which ha'er is this, the money is too much to run out!"

"It's your shit, which one does Lao Tzu want to bet on, you turtle sons, do you also want to be thrown out to stack Arhats!"

Hearing Tang Xiaosan say this, everyone snorted coldly and stopped talking, they had to admit to the problem of making trouble in the gambling house.

Seeing that no one bet anymore, the dealer shook the dice cup again, this time no one spoke, everyone held their breath and waited for the moment when the cup was opened.

"Open, 456, big!"

"I won, I won! Ha ha! ”

"I knew that Lao Tzu bet more, so I won a tael of silver!"

"What about the Harr who bet on the leopard just now, I don't have anything to say this time, haha."

"You laugh hammer, you're not a small bet, you lost!" Tang Xiaosan saw that someone was laughing at her, and couldn't help but go back angrily.

"Lao Tzu loses happily, and the whole family who dares to bet on the leopard will die!" The man shook his head and swore as if he were really happy to lose.

Tang Xiaosan lost the money, and he was already very angry in his heart, but when he saw that the man was still talking more and more, he pointed to his nostrils and scolded:

"Buy a batch, don't play tricks with Lao Tzu here, do you dare to come out and fight with Lao Tzu."

"You call Lao Tzu to go head-to-head? Lao Tzu is here to gamble for money, Ha Ma Pi! ”

"Bag one!"

When Tang Xiaosan and that person were scolding, the dealer had already opened another game. Verbal disputes in casinos are common, as long as there is no obvious physical contact and does not affect other people's gambling money, the people in the gambling house are blind to one eye.

"I'll bet 5 taels small!" By the time the new game began, Tang Xiaosan had long forgotten his previous decision at the door of the gambling house, and said that he would leave after losing 5 taels of silver?

Half an hour later, Tang Xiaosan hesitated with the last 5 taels of silver. In this half an hour, she bet more than 30 times, winning and losing, but none of them won back 50 taels. Every time she thinks in her heart, as long as she wins back 50 taels, she won't gamble, but the reality is cruel. When she went out, she had a huge sum of 50 taels in her pocket, bought some things, paid off the arrears, and had 45 taels left. However, it was only half an hour since she walked into the gambling house, and now there are only 5 taels left.

What to do? What to do? The last 5 taels of silver, what am I betting? Or is it not a gamble? Tang Xiaosan looked at the gambling table again, betting on the big loss of 2 times, betting on the small loss of 2 times, and betting on the leopard of 10 times!

By the way, leopard, why didn't I think of that? Tang Xiaosan's heart was suddenly full of hope again, 5 taels of silver bet on the leopard, won 10 times, directly became 50 taels, and he could return to his capital at once. Betting on bets, Tang Xiaosan was full of excitement and bet the last 5 taels of silver on the leopard, and then folded his hands together, and muttered all kinds of prayers to God and Buddha.

"Buy and leave!"

"123, small!"

However, the Heavenly Gods and Buddhas didn't have time to help Tang Xiaosan, and her last 5 taels of silver were lost. Tang Xiaosan was remorseful, angry, heartbroken, and had all kinds of feelings. She stomped her foot hard, bit her lip, pointed to her nose and secretly swore that she would never gamble again, and then carried a large bag and a small bag, and walked out of the Xindu Party Gambling House listlessly.
