Cao Hong just returned to the post house from the county government, and saw that the fat man was playing with the post guards "樗 (sound with the same out) Pu", 樗蒲 is also called throwing Lu, is a kind of gambling game similar to the current Monopoly, the so-called 樗, is the stinky tree tree, because the gambling equipment of the 樗蒲 is generally made of stinky 樗, so it is called "樗", Pu is the transliteration of the gambling "Bo", so it is called "樗蒲".

There are generally four kinds of utensils, such as plates, cups, horses, and arrows, and the horse is the chess piece, and the arrow is the five dice. Each person holds six horses, with five dice to throw points, this point is also exquisite, generally divided into ten kinds of sizes, of which Lu, pheasant, Du, white four kinds are large, the rest are small. Those who throw big can roll the dice, hit the horse, and pass the level continuously. Among them, the all-black "Lu" is the jackpot.

At this time, it was the turn of the fat man to roll the dice, only to see his head sweating profusely, holding the dice with both hands on his chest, and there were words in his mouth, suddenly he threw it into the plate, and the five dice were dripping in the plate for a long time, and when the dice stopped, I saw that the five dice were all white. The postmen laughed loudly, and flicked the money in front of the fat man in front of them. The fat man blushed and scolded: "The dog entered, I saw the hell today, what kind of bullshit feng shui is this pavilion, the fat man, I have a means of killing and winning, but I didn't win." ”

One of the post guards said: "Forget it, fat man, just the fierce you blow, what Luoyang ghost hand, King Lu in Beijing." The brothers have seen it. Haha......"

Seeing that the postman questioned his gambling skills, the fat man jumped up and pointed at the postman and scolded: "You know a fart, it's your Mengjin feng shui is not good, the big river passes through the city, and it takes away the wealth and fortune here." I only hate the fat man, I'm careless. ”

The crowd laughed again. The fat man was still waiting for 300 rounds of the next battle, and when he saw Cao Hong standing outside the crowd, he reluctantly walked out.

Cao Hong looked at the fat man teasingly and said, "Brother Li, I didn't expect you to have such a bandit as the Luoyang Ghost Hand." ”

Seeing that it was exposed, the fat man smiled and said, "Hey, hey, hey, You can't count, you can't count. ”

Cao Hong didn't expose it, but only asked, "Brother Li, what's wrong with you." ”

The fat man looked left and right sheepishly, and whispered, "Tonight's show begins." ”

Cao Hong nodded.

At the beginning of the lanterns, the fat man took Cao Hong out of the door, and came to the door of a gambling hall in the dark, Cao Hong only heard that the gambling hall was extremely noisy. was about to push the door in, but the fat man stopped Cao Hong and asked him to pretend that he didn't know each other after he went in, just look at his methods. Cao Hong nodded.

The fat man pushed the door into the gambling hall, Cao Hong waited outside for a while, looked left and right and walked in.

Entered the gambling hall, I saw a big table in the middle hall, a group of people were shouting five and six around the table, Cao Hong came closer to see that it was playing "dice throwing", throwing dice compared to Pu, more direct, but also more exciting, only five dice, roll the dice, the big one kills, the entertainment is reduced, but the stimulation is doubled.

The fat man at the table saw Cao Hong coming in, winked at him, and gave Cao Hong another look, Cao Hong followed the fat man's eyes, and saw a person sitting in front of the table, which was Xu Zhi'an and the dark circles under his eyes that he saw in Yicui Pavilion that day. Cao Hong thought to himself: "This Xu Zhi'an is really a talent, eating, drinking, prostituting and gambling, everything." What kind of place is the Xu family to be able to raise such a good person. ”

Xu Zhi'an sat at the table gracefully, with a pile of silver coins piled up like a hill in front of him. I think I won a lot today, and at this time, I was talking with the dark circles on the one hand, but my eyes were fixed on the dealer and shaking the dice.

At this time, the dealer shook the bowl with dice, played a trick, put the bowl on the table, and sang loudly to everyone: "Buy big and buy small, buy and leave, and get ready to make a fortune!" ”

The fat man took the silver in his hand and stretched out to the "big" piece, stopped there, and then hesitantly stretched out to the "small", and the dealer saw it impatiently and said: "Fatty, everyone else has bought it, just you grind." I don't have the money to go home, and I'm embarrassed here. ”

The fat man was angry, and his eyes rolled: "Fat man, I have my own calculations in my heart, you just take care of your dice, what nonsense." After speaking, he hesitated to observe for a long time, gritted his teeth, and then put the small silver in his hand on the "big".

Xu Zhi'an saw the stingy appearance of the fat man, laughed disdainfully, and turned his head to laugh with the dark circles under his eyes.

The dealer saw that no one was betting anymore, so he sang: "Hulu Hulu, all black counts." After speaking, he opened the bowl, only to see that the five dice were all black, and those who chose "big" in the field were cheering, and those who chose "small" were like mourning and examining.

The fat man chose "big", jumped up happily, waved his hand and said to the dealer, "How is it?" The fat man will kill all sides tonight, dealer, don't let me win away your pants when the time comes! ”

The dealer glanced at the fat man with disdain, and ignored him at all, but just filled the dice with a bowl and continued to shake them.

Xu Zhi'an won one night, which made him choose "small", and when he saw that the dealer was big, he scolded and said: "This fat man is really a disaster." ”

The dark circle said: "Cousin, this time the big election is small." ”

Xu Zhi'an thought about it and put the silver on the "small" again.

At this time, the fat man on the opposite side stretched out his chubby hand again, hesitantly hovering between "big" and small, Xu Zhi'an saw that he was still grinding and chirping and refused to bet, and scolded: "Fatty, don't play if you can't fucking play, it will ruin your master's interest." ”

After hearing this, the fat man sneered: "What is the little white face calling?" Just a few taels of your meat, it's okay to play with women at home, and what kind of silver do you go out to play. The fat man I hate the most in my life is the little white face, saying, you choose big or small, today the fat man is on the bar with you, you choose big, I will choose small. You choose small, I choose big. What do you think? Do you dare to play? ”

Xu Zhian also sneered: "Fatty, do you know who I am?" Dare to have more money than me? Okay, today your father chose the small, fat son to bet......"

The fat man's face turned blue, he spat hard, and slapped the silver in his hand heavily on the "big".

The dealer saw that everyone was buying and leaving, sang again, opened the porcelain bowl, and saw that the five dice were "big" again.

The fat man's face flushed with excitement, jumped up, hugged the winning money to himself, and looked at Xu Zhi'an at the table defiantly.

Xu Zhi'an saw that the fat man was arrogant, and he was angry, so he stood up and said to the fat man: "Luckily, there are not many people who can win me in Mengjin, and there are even fewer who dare to win me." It's better to play a big game today, you choose first, win, and all my money is yours; If you lose, I don't want your money, as long as you strip naked and run two laps in this Mengjin County. Do you dare? ”

The fat man hesitated for a moment and snorted: "Who are you scaring you, little white face, don't blame the fat man for being unkind, you yourself said that I would choose first." Don't lose your bills. ”

Xu Zhi'an glanced at the fat man and didn't bother to answer at all. At this time, the dark circles under Xu Zhi'an's side said: "Fatty, in this Mengjin County, my cousin still doesn't know how to write Laizi." ”

The fat man smiled arrogantly and said, "Okay, everyone here is a witness, fat man, I still choose the big one today, come on." ”

Seeing Xu Zhi'an nodding to him, the dealer picked up the bowl and shook the dice. At this time, everyone around was staring nervously at the bowl, and Cao Hong was also very nervous, thinking of the fat man and the postman just now, his heart was even more bottomless.

The fat man said to the dealer as if he had nothing to do, "What are you waiting for?" Open! ”

The dealer was stunned for a moment, then opened the bowl, only to see that it was "big" inside. Everyone exclaimed, and saw the fat man jump up and dial the silver money in front of Xu Zhi'an's eyes in front of him.

Xu Zhi'an was like an eggplant beaten by frost, and his face was gloomy and could drip water. A handful of hands grabbed by the fat man's hand.

As if ravaged, the fat man screamed, "What do you want to do?" ”

Xu Zhian stared at the fat man fiercely and said: "Good luck, okay, let's continue, the two shops of my Xu family in the city, I will bet on this!" If you lose, I want you to lie at my feet and learn to bark. ”

The fat man's eyes lit up, and he withdrew his hand and smiled: "Boy, no wonder it's so horizontal, it turns out to be a son." This time, you choose first, the fat man of the province is not martial. ”

Xu Zhi'an also hesitated, although these two shops were taken care of by him, but they were the property of the Xu family, and it was just a matter of taking out some silver money in them, if these two shops were lost by him, his father Mrs. Xu would definitely pick his skin.

The fat man saw that Xu Zhian didn't dare to fight, so he laughed and said, "Oops! Don't you dare? It's okay, the fat man doesn't care about you in general, let's stop betting, as long as you, a little white face, kneel at the feet of the fat man and me, and learn a dog bark for the fat man. ”

Xu Zhi'an has never seen anyone dare to talk to him like this since he was a child, and his face turned red and white after listening to it.

Seeing that Xu Zhi'an was going to agree, the black circles hurriedly pulled Xu Zhi'an's sleeve and said, "Cousin, you can't gamble anymore, if you lose, your father asked, how to make a difference." ”

After hearing this, Xu Zhi'an also felt that it made sense, and was hesitating, when the annoying fat man opposite said again: "How old a person is, it depends on your father's face, waste is waste." What else to brag about, cut! ”

Xu Zhi'an couldn't bear it anymore, stared at the fat man and said: "I will add twenty acres of ripe fields outside the city, you win and take it all, if you lose, not only will you spit out what you ate today, but I will also break one of your teeth." ”

After hearing this, the black circles under his eyes were so anxious that he was sweating, and he hurriedly grabbed Xu Zhi'an and persuaded him, but Xu Zhi'an was already overwhelmed by anger, just stared at the fat man, gritted his teeth and said, "Shake my ......"

Seeing this, the dealer hurriedly shook the bowl in his hand carefully up and down, left and right, and held the bowl with a "snap" and waited for the two to bet.

Xu Zhi'an had red eyes, staring at the bowl covered with dice, and muttered to himself. Suddenly, as if he had made up his mind, he roared in a muffled voice: "Big ......"

The fat man still sneered disdainfully, and gently pushed all the silver in front of him to the "small" side.

"Buy and leave," the dealer sang.

At this moment, everyone at the table seemed to stop breathing, and quietly watched the bowl slowly uncovered. Xu Zhi'an was so nervous that he didn't even dare to look at it, closing his eyes and waiting for the judgment of fate.

"The one who wins the ......" the dealer looked at the five dice on the plate and sang.

Xu Zhi'an listened, as if the strength of his whole body had been drained, he opened his eyes in panic, looked directly at the five dice, and saw that they were really small.

Xu Zhi'an almost slipped and sat down, feeling sorry for the lost field shop for a while, and thinking about returning to Xujiabao for a while, his father knew how to clean him up later. He trembled with fear.

When the fat man saw that he had won the bet again, he jumped up happily, ignoring the fat all over his body, and even had the meaning of being as light as a swallow. Seeing Xu Zhi'an sitting paralyzed on the other side, the fat man walked over with an evil smile.
