Chapter 68: Losing All Your Possessions
Lu Guyan patted his thigh, hating iron and steel: "Your second uncle gambled with others and lost all the treasury silver, the clan industry, and the old mansion!" Overnight, we were swept out of the house, and we didn't even bring out the spiritual seat of the ancestor of the Lu family. ”
As he spoke, he couldn't help but cry.
Lost a gamble? Lu Qingchen stared at Lu Qilin coldly.
A long time ago, he felt that his second uncle was not a housekeeper, and when his father was in power, he was idle all the year round and did not do serious things.
thought that he was in charge of the Lu Mansion, even if his nature did not change, but the Lu Mansion had a huge family business, and I believe that he would not be defeated.
Who would have thought that he would lose all of them in just half a year, and the ancestral tablets were gone!
Lu Qilin lowered his head and clenched his fists with remorse: "Nephew Qingchen, my uncle is blinded by lard, and he deserves death, but those people deceived me to do this!" ”
Scam? Lu Qingchen thought about it, although the second uncle was stubborn, but as far as he knew, he was not addicted to gambling, so why did he lose all the Lu Mansion overnight?
"Tell me, how to lie to you." Lu Qingchen said.
Lu Qilin said: "I was introduced by a friend, I met a big man in the dark house, and invited me to participate in the underground competition and gambling in the dark house, that is, I took the right age to participate in the underground competition, and the dealer's people played against the dealer, and agreed on the chips in advance, if you win, the chips will belong to you, if you lose, the chips will belong to the other party." ”
"Because I was curious, I took Jian'er to watch, and found that the strength of the banker's martial artists was very poor, so I was itching, so I let Jian'er play a few games, and won 100,000 silver very easily!"
Hearing this, Lu Qingchen realized the trap.
"After winning once, we couldn't help but participate again the next day, and this time, we won 200,000 taels!"
"After that, we went every night for five days in a row and won more and more!"
"After six days, we have a total of one million taels of silver, which is more than the ten years of business that Lu Mansion has been running in the past!"
Lu Qilin's face showed deep remorse: "Until the seventh day, when we went again, we were refused entry by that big man, because the sword was too strong and there was no opponent, which disrupted the rules of the competition, so we were refused to participate." ”
It is conceivable that they are used to the days of winning huge amounts of silver every day, how can they be willing to give up?
"At this time, they showed their true colors and began to retract." Lu Qilin's eyes showed self-blame: "I insisted on wanting to participate, and the big man made a request, we can only participate again, and the chips for participating in the competition must be increased to 10 million silver, otherwise we will never be allowed to come again." ”
Lu Qilin said: "At that time, I was blinded by lard and used to victory, so I even promised to take all the treasury silver, industrial certificates, and mansion deeds of the Lu Mansion, and I was ready to win the last time and completely stop it." ”
can imagine Lu Qilin's mood at that time, as long as he wins, Lu Fu's assets can be doubled, far better than Lu Fu's hundred years of accumulation.
And after winning six days in a row, their self-confidence has swelled to the limit.
Really!
"This time the opponent sent by the dealer is the one who was defeated by Jian'er in the past, I am completely relieved, but who would have thought that he actually hid his cultivation, and his real strength is Xiao Chen's Jiuming! Before Jian'er could react, he was pierced through the leg bone, and then swept out of the ring with one move. ”
"Subsequently, everything in our Lu Mansion was taken over, and the three of us were completely driven out of Lu Mansion!"
Lu Qilin raised his face and burst into tears: "Now that I think about it, how obvious is that trap?" But I'm obsessed, and I'm completely tricked! ”
After listening, Lu Cangliu angrily reprimanded: "Stupid! There is never a pie in the sky, not to mention that the pie comes from a place like the Dark Mansion, you dare to believe it! ”
The century-old foundation of the Lu family was ruined!
How can he not be angry, how can he not hate?
Lu Qilin lowered his head when he was reprimanded, and did not say a word to refute.
"Big brother, nephew Qingchen, I was wrong, but please save Jian'er first, I don't want him to become a cripple in the future!" Lu Qilin burst into tears.
They didn't have a penny, and they didn't have the money to buy a bone cream.
Lu Cangliu finally relented, and sighed: "It's not that I don't save it, but Lu Jian's injury runs through the bones, not an ordinary broken bone, and the entire Fengmanlou is only effective with the top-grade bone paste from the Huang Family's Secret Medicine Workshop, but their medicine needs to be booked, and it is impossible to buy it directly from stock." ”
Lu Qilin's face turned pale, did he really want to let Jian'er fall into the sequelae?
Thinking of this, he was overwhelmed with remorse.
"Take it and use it." Suddenly, Lu Qingchen suddenly opened his mouth and took out two stickers from the burden behind his back.
When I got thirteen stickers of bone paste, I only used nine stickers, and there were still four stickers left to carry with me in case of emergency.
"Huang's top-grade bone paste?" Lu Qilin held it with tears in his eyes, and was overjoyed to stick it on Lu Jian.
"Thank you Qingchen nephew, thank you ......" Looking at Lu Qingchen, Lu Qilin was ashamed.
He treated Lu Qingchen like Lu Jian before, but now he helped Lu Jian in turn.
"It's fine." Lu Qingchen shook his head and said.
"Qingchen, what do you think?" Lu Cangliu stared at Lu Qingchen, if his son was unwilling to wade into the troubled waters of the Dark Mansion, then give up.
But Lu Qingchen's answer made him sigh and relieved.
Lu Qingchen said: "No matter how stiff we have with our uncle and cousin, it is also an internal matter of our Lu family, and now, someone is openly plotting to rob our Lu family's foundation, as a member of the Lu family, we can't stand idly by, we must take away the family property!" ”
The sonorous and powerful answer resounded in the ears of several people.
It's hard to believe that these words came from the mouth of a teenager.
Lu Cangliu was extremely pleased, he was most afraid that his son would not distinguish between right and wrong, because he resented Lu Qilin's father and son, so he sat back and watched the Lu family's foundation being snatched.
Now it seems that his son is very mature, far beyond his expectations.
Yes, the Lu Mansion in the south of the city and the Lu Mansion in the city are separated, and that is also the common Lu family.
The ancestors worked hard for the inheritance, and their descendants have no reason to sit idly by.
Lu Qingchen turned his head to look at Lu Qilin and said, "Do you still want to gamble again?" ”
"Still betting?" Lu Qilin had an unforgettable psychological shadow, and shook his head: "Don't dare, I don't dare to bet if I die." ”
"I mean, we will govern others as they would have been treated." Lu Qingchen said indifferently: "How did they take away the Lu family's industry, how do I want them to spit it back!" ”
A glimmer of light crossed Lu Qingchen's eyes.
When night falls, it's minor.
Lu Qilin came to the market in the north of the city, followed by a young man in a golden mask, who only showed his facial features and couldn't make out his true face.
He drove to an abandoned ruin in the bazaar.
Far away, you can see that the ruins are brightly lit and cheering.
"That's the underground casino." Lu Qilin said in a low voice.
"Go in and memorize the lines." The golden-faced young man behind him said with a calm expression.
He is not someone else, it is Lu Qingchen.
Lu Qilin shook his head and led Lu Qingchen to the ruins.
When he was about to enter, two Zhongchen powerhouses jumped out of the shadows on the left and right sides.
"Lord Lu? You've been denied access to the underground casino, please go back. ”
Lu Qilin's eyes were red, full of unconvinced anger: "I don't accept it, I want to win back what I lost!" ”
"I'm sorry, this is what Brother Yang meant, you can't enter anymore."
Lu Qilin struggled and roared: "Why don't you let me in?" Are underground casinos afraid that I can't afford to lose? Hum! I still have a million, and I'm going to make one last stand. ”
He held a silver card in one hand and a large number of Qianyun Fire Tower admission tickets in the other, roaring again and again.
A crazy gambler who is unwilling to lose and wants to make a last fight is vividly interpreted.
For Lu Qilin, who has been loitering all year round, this is a true performance, and there is no difficulty.
"Lord Lu, please don't embarrass the little ones, if you make such a noise and affect other guests, then don't blame us for being polite!" The two powerhouses of the dark mansion said lightly.
"Wait!"
Suddenly, a middle-aged man in a brocade robe walked out of the ruins.
He is the "big man" of the dark mansion, the person in charge of the underground casino, Yang Di!
Seeing this person, Lu Qingchen's pupils shrank slightly.
Although the other party only showed a pair of eyes at the beginning, he remembered them deeply, those sharp eyes like eagle eyes.
The middle age of the hawkeye who chased him in the villa!
It turned out to be him!
Yang Qian stared at Lu Qilin and said, "Lord Lu, oh, I should call you a guest officer now, I should have said that the last time was your last chance, what are you going to do now?" ”
Lu Qilin's eyes widened, holding the silver card and the admission ticket: "Of course it's a flip!" This time, I invited a master to win back all the losses of my Lu Mansion! ”
After looking at Lu Qingchen lightly, Yang Qian glanced at the silver card and admission ticket in his hand again, and said after a long time: "Okay, I can make an exception for you and let you participate again, but only one game with you, understand?" ”
Lu Qilin rubbed his palms, revealing his eagerness and confidence to turn the tables: "I'm afraid you won't dare to take it!" ”
The biggest fear of casinos is to win once and not come back.
Someone like him who is in a hurry to turn the tables will often lose even more.
A hint of drama and abuse crossed Lu Qilin's eyes, he thought that he had squeezed the Lu Mansion dry, but he didn't expect Lu Qilin to get another million silver taels.
Moreover, he has not yet understood that this is a trap and is still deeply trapped in it.
Since he had traveled thousands of miles to send money, why should he refuse?
"Hehe, then come in! Arrange a jousting game for you later. ”
There are many invited underworld forces in the ruins, but they are generally third-rate small forces, like the Lu Mansion.
The vast majority of them were spectators, and only a very small number participated.
"Father, what are you bringing me here for?" Ye Feiming sat under the stage with his arms crossed, staring at the competition between Xiaochen martial artists on the stage with disdain.
Next to him was the lord of the Ye Mansion and Ye Feiming's father.
The Ye family is a third-rate top strength in the underworld, and after Ye Feiming takes charge alone, he has the hope of becoming a second-rate force.
"Fei Ming take a closer look, how sure are you that you can beat the dealer's martial artist?" Father Ye faintly couldn't bear it.
Seeing that the rest of the families had gained, he couldn't sit still.
