This is a small township in Kachin State within Myanmar, located on the border between China and Myanmar. The town is poor, with a road that seems to have not been built in decades running through the town, and the streets are lined with low, gray houses.

However, the casino that Qi Lu and the three of them were going to was an exception, a three-story building that looked dilapidated and old on the outside, and when they walked inside, they found that the decoration was magnificent. The furnishings are made of fine mahogany, and the precious wool carpet covers the entire floor, revealing no gaps.

The casino was on the second floor, and the two security guards used metal detectors to simply check Qi Lu and Tang Fangbiao's whole body before letting them in, but they stopped Ding Xiaolan, who was following them.

"Why can't I go in?" Ding Xiaolan's apricot eyes widened.

A security guard, speaking in blunt Mandarin, said, "There are rules in the casino, and women entering will bring bad luck." ”

"You" Ding Xiaolan was so angry that she couldn't speak. Qi Lu didn't expect such a situation to happen, he stopped and looked back and forth at the security guard.

At this time, another security guard said: "Miss can go to the bar on the third floor to rest, it is very quiet above, I promise that no one disturbs." ”

When it came to this, Qi Lu was not easy to force, he glanced at Ding Xiaolan, and Ding Xiaolan had to reluctantly go to the third floor with the security guard to rest.

The casino is very large, and there is a wine table on the side, Tang Fangbiao said to Qi Lu: "This is not a black shop, it is a regular casino, using RMB as gambling money." You can gamble as much as you want, and I can lend you money if you lose. ”

"Thank you." Qi Lu has a million in his suitcase, and he is feeling nervous, thinking that he is at least a local tyrant in this place, and no matter how much he loses, he will not lose all the money.

Qi Lu walked around the casino and found that although the casino was very large, all the tables only played one type of betting, that is, dice, and he couldn't help but be a little excited.

Dice can be said to be the oldest gambling technique of mankind, and in 3000 BC, it was popular in Iraq and India. Qi Lu already knew how to play dice when he was very young, and he also liked to play very much, and he thought that this kind of gambling was very cultural.

Although dice is simple to play, it is also the easiest place to make thousands.

One of the most clever cheats Qi Lu has ever seen is when someone puts a rare element in the dice, and then senses the dice surface of the element through the sensor to know the number of points. Because this element is very similar to the material of ordinary dice, even if someone suspects cheating, even if the dealer smashes the dice in front of everyone, others will not see anything unusual.

Qi Lu doesn't know much about the method of throwing dice on the Internet and WeChat, but he still has a lot of experience in shaking dice on the spot, and he doesn't believe that anyone can cheat money under his nose.

But this is not his own territory after all, Qi Lu is still a little cautious, he changed his chips, and he was not in a hurry to place a bet, but wandered around the casino for a long time, observing everything around him coldly. Finally, he finally put his mind at ease and was ready to take a big gamble. Because he found that the dealers here seem to be some novices, their way of shaking the dice is very rusty, and the players who participate in the gambling are also very well-behaved, and no one dares to make a cage.

With the psychology of a lot of people, Qi Lu found a table with the most people and was ready to bet. At this time, he had long forgotten the fact that his usual gambling was always more losses and fewer wins.

The dealer is a woman in her early twenties, with delicate skin and a naturally perfect good figure, although she wears a vest, she can't hide her charming and delicate body.

I saw her grab the dice, knock on the side of the dice cup with a "jingle bell", and shout loudly to the onlookers of gamblers: "Bet quickly, the bigger the better." “

Qi Lu smiled and said, "I'll bet a thousand yuan." With that, he began to dig out the money.

The dealer stopped Qi Lu's hand that was about to bet, "Sir, we have at least 10,000 yuan per bet here." ”

She speaks standard Mandarin and speaks it nicely. Qi Lu didn't expect that this place was very poor, but the stakes were huge, and if he was unlucky, he might not be able to stay in the casino for an hour. He was a little hesitant, but he still couldn't resist the temptation and placed a bet of 10,000 yuan.

The dealer smiled and said to him, "Sir, I forgot to remind you that we still have a rule here. ”

"What rules?"

"Each gambler must bet at least 20 hands at the same table before leaving."

Qi Lu said: "How can there be such a rule, are you afraid that I will run away if I win, or are you worried that I don't have enough money?" ”

"Sir is really joking, the net worth of those who can come to us to play is at least tens of millions, who cares about this little money?"

Qi Lu smiled lightly and did not make a sound.

"Has anyone else bet?" The dealer starts to shake the dice vigorously.

When the last roll of the dice stopped in the porcelain dice, Qi Lu's closed eyes opened, and he took out 10,000 yuan and bet it on the big word column on the gambling table. Qi Lu has played dice for so many years, not only knows the materials of various dice well, but also learned the ability to distinguish the wind and listen to the sound. He is now confident because he is convinced that the three dice in the cup are a six, a five, and a four.

"It's on!" The dealer shouted coquettishly and unveiled the dice cup, and the result was really not different from Qi Lu's guess.

Qi Lu couldn't help laughing, but the others didn't laugh, they all had bitter gourd faces. Because the first five sets of bets on Qi Lu were all big one after another, who would dare to bet big? Only Qi Lu, a stunned young man who just came, would bet.

Unknowingly, Qi Lu bet nineteen in a row, and he won all of them. As long as there is no one in the field, Qi Lu is not afraid. According to this fortune, perhaps today will sweep away the bad luck of losing every gamble for many years.

"Sir, this is your twentieth time, and after betting on this, you can leave at any time." The dealer's voice is still so seductive.

Qi Lu looked at the banknotes piled up in front of him, and he had a pink eye, not to mention how proud he was, and his courage naturally increased.

Zhuang Jiayu pressed the dice cup lightly with his hand and asked him with a smile: "Just wait for you to bet, I will open it immediately." ”

"All-in!" Qi Lu piled all the money into small print, with a sense of accomplishment on his face, feeling that he had never been so arrogant.

At this moment, Qi Lu suddenly heard a loud voice ringing in his ears, it was a woman's voice, and the voice was so loud that it almost burst his eardrums.

Qi Lu looked back in surprise, there was no one behind him, and this female voice did not look like Ding Xiaolan's voice. He turned his head to look at the people around the table, they were all staring at the dice cup under the female dealer, and no one would pay attention to him at this critical moment.

But he really heard that voice, although this sentence was only three words, it was enough to make Qi Lu's heart tremble.

Because the phrase is "Don't bet!" ”

But it was too late for Qi Lu to regret it, because the dealer had already opened the dice cup, and the dice were two fives and one six.

Qi Lu was stupid. He never dreamed that his ears that could not be heard correctly would hear the wrong number today.

The dealer began to smile and collect the money, but Qi Lu felt that she seemed to be despising herself.

Everyone is looking at him, there are people everywhere who expect to get rich from gambling, but there are even more unlucky, Qi Lu is one of them today, a gambler who has lost everything.

In fact, everyone knows that the chance of making a windfall by gambling is basically the same as the probability of winning the jackpot in the lottery, but they are willing to give it a try, even if they go bankrupt. It's just that the probability of miracles happening in this world is too low, so everyone has seen the results.

The people around the gaming table were laughing, but only Qi Lu couldn't laugh.

The mysterious female voice sounded again, "Bet again, and you will definitely be able to turn it over." ”

Qi Lu finally smiled, but it was only a wry smile, because he had no money on him. He had no choice but to come to the wine table in frustration, sit in front of Tang Fangbiao, and ask the waiter at the counter for a bottle of beer to drink.

The waiter politely said, "Hello sir, the drinks are free here, but if the customer does not bet for more than half an hour, I will ask him out." ”

How could Qi Lu not understand the meaning of the words, if he couldn't get the money to gamble later, it wouldn't be long before someone would come and kick him out.

"Then why did he sit for so long?" Qi Lu pointed to Tang Fangbiao and asked.

"He's an exception because he's a friend of our boss."

Qi Lu squinted and saw that Tang Fangbiao had chosen a bottle of foreign wine, poured himself a drink, and didn't even look at himself.

Both of them were drinking, and Tang Fangbiao spoke for a while, "How is your luck?"

Qi Lu pretended not to care and said: "It's a pity, I won at the beginning, and the last one was too big and I lost everything." “

Tang Fangbiao sighed and said: "Winning is not accidental, if you want to win, you must be fully prepared to win, luck is important, strength is the most important thing." If you only want to win, and don't calmly consider the consequences of losing, then you will lose as a matter of course. “

This said Qi Lu's heartache, but his heart was unwilling, he took a sip of wine and said, "Didn't you say that you would lend me money if you lost?" ”

"Gamblers have the mentality of wanting to catch up with the book when they lose, I see that you can't calm down at all now, and you still lose if you lend you money."

"If you are willing to borrow, we will divide it evenly."

Tang Fangbiao said: "What if you lose?"

Qi Lu replied: "If you lose, I will pay you back." ”

"How? You are now penniless. Tang Fangbiao suddenly laughed, "Don't say anything like settling Miss Ding to pay me off my debts, that's human trafficking and causing me to go to jail, don't look for me." ”

Qi Lu's face turned white, and he said with a stiff neck: "What do you think of me, even if I lose all my money today and become a beggar on the streets of Myanmar, you have to guarantee me that Ding Xiaolan will be sent home safely." “

Tang Fangbiao smiled: "Then how do you say you will pay back the money if you lose?" ”

"No matter what, I won't lose anyway, it's a big deal that I will mortgage the Kunlun Office to you."

Although Qi Lu is a good gambler, he is not a person who gambles like his life, even if he sells his wife, he has to turn over the book, but today he is really unconvinced, he feels that he is very wretched, and the last one is actually washed away by the inexplicable female voice.

"Okay."

This time, Tang Fangbiao did not hesitate, he immediately wrote a check and handed it to the waiter, and the waiter raised one million cash to Qi Lu.

Qi Lu hurriedly exchanged the money for chips and went to the old place to gamble again, and this time he decided to get the money back with interest.

Tang Fangbiao was still drinking, but an imperceptible smirk flashed at the corner of his mouth.
