Chapter 78, the waves in the night market

After sending Wen Peng to the exhibition door, Qi Si returned to the living room.

Luo Bingrun was still waiting there.

"Go check that guy named Ding Xiu." Luo Bingrun's fingers knocked on the coffee table a few times, and his expression seemed to be a little dissatisfied: "The crows are going to be killed, why didn't Chang San come over to talk to me?" ”

"Master Luo, Chang San is not afraid of disturbing your peace here." Qi Si said: "He asked people to check this Ding Xiu in the afternoon, the other party has no background, and the place where he lives is also under our control, Chang San has already made arrangements." Ding Xiu taught our brother a lesson in public, if he can leave Jiaping City alive, how will we mix in Changxing Society in the future? ”

"Don't live." Luo Bingrun nodded, his expression was much calmer, what he said just now was to deliberately give Qi Si a chance to give Chang San eye medicine.

At the beginning, these two were his own capable brothers, Luo Bingrun didn't want to see a day when there was a gap between them, but the family business was getting bigger and bigger, Chang San and Qi Si were one internal and one external, and the two of them had more people, and there was a mountain in the community.

Fortunately, Qi Si did not follow Luo Bingrun's words to fall into the well, but helped Chang San explain.

Most of his words meant to defend Chang San, which couldn't help but make Luo Bingrun feel relieved and quite pleased.

"Understood. Wen Pengzhan's matter, I am going to talk to Chang San, and let him do it when the time comes. Qi Si responded, and reported his next plans to Luo Bingrun.

"You can arrange it." Luo Bingrun was noncommittal about this.

"Understood." Qi Si nodded.

……

After Ding Xiu and the three of them walked out of the hotel and had dinner, they began to visit the night market in Jiaping City.

Unlike small places, big cities are very lively at night.

Unlike the lavish entertainment city, the cost of the night market is much lower, and Ding Xian only heard about this with the cousin in the restaurant, so he called Gu Beimo and Shen You to come here together.

The night market is a long street, and in addition to all kinds of snacks, there are also some things to do on both sides of the street.

Some people set up a stall and put on chess and dice and other gambling gadgets to attract people who want to try their luck.

People at the bottom do not have high requirements for life, and some even need to have a full stomach, but no matter what everyone's attitude towards life, these people have a common dream, that is, to suddenly make a windfall.

They didn't qualify for the casinos in the casinos, but they found an opportunity to make that dream come true at the roadside gambling stalls.

Shen You walked on the road and looked left and right, and his eyes were also attracted by a lottery stall. She's not short of money now, but she just likes to go where there are a lot of people.

The stall was crowded with people, and the crowd was filled with exclamations and sighs, mixed with shouts of "left", "center" and "right".

Shen You approached, she was small and was blocked out, and it took a lot of effort to break through the crowd and get in.

After a while, she squeezed out and beckoned to Ding Xiu and Gu Beimo: "Ding Xiu, old Gu, come here, this is fun." ”

Ding Xiu and Gu Beimo walked over when they heard this, and squeezed into the crowd with Shen You.

It turned out that there was a table inside, and behind the table sat a middle-aged man with a thin figure and a lean face.

There were three cups upside down on the table, and the middle-aged man put a small ball in his hand on the table and lit it up in front of everyone.

"Bet now, everyone." The middle-aged man shouted, then put the ball into one of the cups, then moved the position of the three cups with both hands, and after a while, stopped for the onlookers to guess which cup the ball was in.

"Isn't that just a way to guess which cup the ball is in, what's so funny?" Gu Beimo pursed his lips, a little incomprehensible to Shen You's childlike nature.

"You know what? I just heard from the person next to me that no one in this booth tonight guessed correctly. Shen You said: "And the stall boss is increasing the odds every round, I feel like he is not afraid of losing." ”

"Huh?" Gu Beimo's ears pricked up, and he seemed to hear the meaning of her words.

"That's really interesting, Ding Xiu, we have to take a good look." Gu Beimo said to Ding Xiu, and the two looked at each other and smiled.

The stall boss behind the table raised his head and glanced at Ding Xiu and the three of them, his eyes were unwavering, and his hands continued to swim quickly on the table with the three cups.

His hand speed was so fast that the onlookers were dazzled, and some of them pointed to the cup they had been optimistic about at the beginning, and their fingers followed the direction of the cup, but after only two or three seconds, they were dazzled.

"Alas~ I guessed wrong again!" A passer-by sitting at the table patted his thigh a little frustratedly, his face full of chagrin, "I obviously saw that this cup was it...... Why aren't the balls in there? ”

The corners of the stall owner's mouth rose slightly, and he opened another cup with a smile, revealing the small ball underneath.

"Wow, it wasn't in the middle, it was on the left!" Someone next to him shouted.

"I just said it was on the left, but you all bet with Lao Hu to buy the middle."

"You can see it accurately, you go up and change the beard, and we will buy it with you."

"No, no, no, the fortune teller said I can't gamble, otherwise there will be a disaster of blood."

"Gong Laosi, haven't you pressed several in front of you? I think you're losing money. ”

"Hey, the fortune teller is really accurate, you may have your wife's leg broken when you go back."

There were a few acquaintances among the onlookers, and everyone teased each other, knocking out the crowd of the red-faced ears that Gong Laosi said.

As soon as Gong Laosi got out, he bumped head-on into someone's arms, he raised his head and looked at it, and his heart was startled.

"Don't you have long eyes when you walk?"

The person who opened his mouth to scold was a gangster from Changxing Society, Gong Laosi quickly shrunk his neck, and apologized repeatedly: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm blind." ”

"Get out, I don't have time to pay attention to you today."

Gong Laosi nodded and walked around the gangster, and saw that he was surrounded by people from Changxing Society.

These people's waists bulged, Gong Laosi was shocked into a cold sweat, and he hurriedly ran away.

The thug ignored Gong Laosi, but quietly beckoned his companions around him to surround the stall where Ding Xiu was. They were all people sent by Chang San, the purpose was to take down Ding Xiu, and then complete the task of Wen Pengzhan to come to the door by the way.

Ding Xiu didn't know the situation outside the crowd, he was dragged to the table by Shen Youchuan, and the little girl said cheerfully that she wanted to pay him the money for the bet.

The stall owner's hand speed was really fast, and Ding Xiu tried to observe his movements with the naked eye for the first time, but he didn't guess right after placing the bet.

"What's the matter, Ding Xiu, why are you just as blind as them?" Shen You didn't expect Ding Xiu to miss, she was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help complaining.

"It's okay, come again." Ding Xiu smiled and didn't care. He hadn't planned to turn on the power of War Paint to play this kind of game, but he wanted to have fun with Shen You when he came out to play, and he couldn't spoil her mood because he lost this.

The stall owner began to move the three cups on the table at a rapid pace again, and this time Ding Xiu no longer hesitated, and instantly activated the power of the war paint.

The three moving cups suddenly became like slow motion in his eyes, and it was completely clear where the cups that had been seen in advance had turned.

When the cup stopped, Ding Xiu confidently reported the position of his bet: "Right." ”

"Are you sure?" The stall owner raised his eyebrows and asked with a slightly surprised expression.

"Sure, you can open it." Ding Xiu nodded.

"Will anyone else follow?" The stall owner shouted, and when he saw that there were few people around, he sneered in his heart, knowing that today's business was almost done, and the confidence of these people was completely lost.

"Open, I don't think it's right, little brother, before he opens the cup, why don't you hurry up and change the position to bet." Someone persuaded.

"No need to change, I saw it, the ball is in the cup on the right." Ding Xiu said, "Let's go." ”

"Hmph." The stall owner laughed, with a hint of mockery in his tone.

"Ha, I just said that I wasn't on the right, and you didn't listen to you just when I told you to change positions." The person who spoke to persuade him just now said to the onlookers next to him with a look of anger, and he was stunned as soon as the words came out.

The people around him have all changed, and now almost all of them are from Changxing Society.

The thug standing next to him made a silent gesture, and motioned with his eyes to get out of here.

"It can't be." Ding Xiu's face showed a look of disbelief, he didn't expect that he would be wrong when he turned on the war paint.

"Ding Xiu, you can't do it." Shen You pouted.

"Brother, you're a little out of shape today." Gu Beimo also patted him on the shoulder, quite surprised in his heart.

"It can't be." Ding Xiu shook his head and repeated what he had just said.

"You still can't play." The stall owner asked.

"Again." Ding Xiu got in touch with him, and he had to find out.

The cup turned again, and Ding Xiu concentrated this time, raising his attention to the limit.

When the cup stopped, he pointed over to it and said, "Middle." ”

"Do you want to change it?" The stall owner's gaze was provocative, and this was one of his usual tricks to provoke customers.

"In the middle." Ding Xiu ignored his provocation.

"Then I'll open it." The stall owner's hand pressed to the cup in the middle and lifted it open.

It's empty underneath.

"Tsk, you didn't guess right, little brother." He sneered, and then prepared to close the stall: "Okay, that's all for today." ”

The stall boss saw that no one had followed Ding Xiu to bet just now, and knew that everyone's confidence had been lost today, so he planned to accept it when he saw it, and then come out to put it out after a few days when everyone's impression faded.

"Wait, I'll bet with you again." Ding Xiu took his hand and said, "If I lose, I'll give you a thousand bries, and if you lose, all the money you win tonight will go to me." ”

"1000 Brie!" The stall owner's heart moved, this is a huge amount of money for ordinary people, and if he wins, he will have no worries for the rest of his life.

"Okay." He immediately responded.

Tonight, the stall owner's income exceeded the 100 brie mark, and he was happily preparing to close the stall to have a drink to celebrate, but he did not expect another windfall to come to the door.

"Do you have 1,000 Brie?" The stall owner was not at ease, and asked tentatively.

Ding Xiu took the money from Shen You's hand and slapped it directly on the table.

The stall owner didn't say a word, and the three cups spun on the table again.

Ding Xiu waited for him to stop, and was about to guess, but suddenly snatched three cups from his hand.

"Sure enough!" The bottom of the three cups was empty, Ding Xiu sneered, threw the cups on the ground, and crushed them with his feet, "You cheat, I'm afraid there is a mechanism under this table." ”

"Boy, you want to break the rules?" The stall owner didn't expect his methods to be seen through by him, and in annoyance, he was ready to roll up his sleeves and do it.

"If your rule is cheating, then it's really a bad rule, and if the bad rule doesn't break it, will it be kept for food?"
