Chapter 10: Strange Dreams

This dealer has to pay at least 100,000 yuan, and he has no money to lose, so he has to take his claws. The young man standing in the corner looked up and shouted loudly into the crowd: "Lao Huang, get the money." ”

"How much?"

From the crowd on the right came the voice of an old man with a rough mine.

I follow the prestige, it is Huang Shiren.

My heart fluttered. Suddenly, an inexplicable anger arose, and it was very unpleasant to see him. My mind was immediately confused, and I didn't have the heart to look at the cards anymore.

Huang Shiren helped the dealer with a paw of 100,000 yuan. I observed that he was followed by two or three young men who specialized in helping him with his backpack, all of them looking like they were out of the world.

This guy is really more powerful than Huang Shiren, and immediately asked the young man who sent the money to deduct the 3,000 yuan fee (interest).

Backpacking behind people who put their claws or gamble on big money is actually acting as a bodyguard. The owner has to pay every day. These young people are all thugs who have come back from prison. As long as you give money, they dare to do it if they help kill people.

I paid close attention to the young men, and they all behaved like bullies with brains and no intelligence.

When I saw Huang Shiren, my mood was instantly penetrated, and my mood became irritable.

After Xiao Huang's money was lost, I asked him to return my 10,000 yuan to me, and told him to leave and stop betting. I'm not in the mood to deposit money at all, drive my mother to eat, and thank me for helping.

I resolutely didn't. told him that it was best to leave as soon as possible, first, because he was afraid that the police would come to arrest him with so much money, and second, he was afraid that he couldn't help but want to bet again.

Xiao Huang said yes, and turned around to contact the field car.

I stood on the bench and looked at Huang Shiren, a man in his fifties who looked red and had a fat brain. A pair of eyes like bull's eyes, big and dull but fierce. The burly man stood there like a mountain, and it was very overwhelming.

Whoever sees him will unconsciously tremble in his heart, so fierce.

It seems that Huang Shiren is afraid of him in the casino. I heard that he eats both black and white, and he is very crazy.

I hated in my heart, I thought to myself, what he was, even if he was just a tiger, if he really killed my dad. I won't let him go either.

At this time, Xiao Huang came over and called me to go, saying that the car was waiting outside.

The three of us left the casino together.

Back in the city, Xiao Huang and I deposited the money in the bank. He dragged me to drink, and I said that my mother was home alone and I didn't feel at ease. persuade him to go home early. I have to go to work tomorrow, and don't learn those bad mistakes for gambling money.

After all, you are already a family man, and you must take care of your family. If it weren't for your words that moved me that I was afraid that my family would be separated, I wouldn't have helped you.

The thin man said yes, men should be responsible. Can't mess around outside.

Xiao Huang nodded straight, so the three of us went back to our respective homes and went to find our own mothers.

I got home and went into the bathroom in the dark to wash up. I know that I have a habit of cleanliness. I feel ashamed that boys have this kind of cleanliness, so I never show it in front of people. After spending hours in the casino, the smell of smoke on my body was so strong.

Even in the hair.

I didn't dare to take a shower for fear of waking my mother up, so I wiped my hair vigorously with a wet towel. Take off your coat and hang it in the bathroom.

After cleaning yourself up, you can go back to bed and lie down.

Lying in bed, I couldn't sleep, with a pair of big eyes, and my mind was like a mess of confusion.

In front of him is the arrogant and arrogant fat face of Huang Shiren in the casino. There is always an inexplicable irritability and entanglement in my heart. I didn't know where to start investigating my dad.

Were you shocked by his fierce momentum? Scared?

It seems like a little. It's not a good thing to be afraid before you get out of school.

But it's not a bad thing either.

Immediately, I kept silently thinking about calmness, calmness in my heart. When I calmed down, I thought to myself that just because I was afraid of him didn't mean I couldn't defeat him.

At least I won't underestimate the enemy, and I won't act rashly and expose myself to the other party without reservation.

Grandpa said that you can't fight hard against a strong opponent, you have to find out his weakness and attack from the side.

So where is Huang Shiren's weakness? How can we find out his weaknesses?

Thinking of this, my mind suddenly cleared up a lot, and I also had a direction.

Sneak into the casino from tomorrow and find out everything about Huang Shiren.

Once you have a goal and think about what you should do, your mind relaxes. I fell asleep in a daze.

During the night I had another strange dream.

In my dream, I walked on an old street paved with bluestone slabs about one meter long and six or seven minutes wide. Through the cracks in the bluestone slabs, you can see the clear water flowing, and there is the sound of rushing water in your ears.

On both sides of the street, as far as the eye could see, there were rows of wooden doors.

I could tell that this was an old commercial street, and the wooden doors on both sides were full of shops. All kinds of wooden signboards are written with traditional Chinese characters, what Xu Ji rice line, Xu Ji silk village, Xu Ji money village, etc., etc., all Xu Ji first.

I suddenly realized that this was my ancestor's shop?

Wow, this is almost 1 kilometer long shop with Xu Ji written on it.

It's night, and the doors are closed. I walked down the stone street to the lighted place.

Suddenly, a girl ran up to her, wearing a blue lake-colored floral cardigan, pants of the same color, and her long hair was braided into a twist and dragged on her chest. In a panic, he hit my head on the chest and almost fell.

I grabbed her arm.

"I'm sorry, young master, I didn't mean to, please forgive Roseine, young master." As soon as the girl looked up and saw me, she knelt on the ground and kowtowed and begged for mercy.

I quickly pulled her up.

Wow, what a pretty girl. A pair of big eyes as beautiful as a doll, and the dark eyes are round and bright. The pink little face has tender skin that can't bear to touch. I'm afraid that it will break if I touch it. It made me feel intoxicated.

Well? This face is so familiar, where have you seen it?

Oh, Wei Xiaoxiao, by the way, this face is the same as my homeroom teacher, Teacher Wei's daughter, Wei Xiaoxiao's face.

"Who are you?" I grabbed his wrist and asked her sharply.

"I'm my wife's maid Ye Guilian, thank you for saving me. I'm sorry young master, I didn't mean to hit you. The girl replied with her head down.

Master? When did I become a young master? And saved her? She's about my age, so why can't she remember me?

"Did you recognize the wrong person? I don't know you."

I looked into her eyes, and the blood in her body was heating up.

The girl raised her head and stared at me for a few seconds: "Young master, don't tease Guilian." Rosewood will repay the young master for saving his life. Young master, please come with me. ”

Damn, this girl is so stubborn, she doesn't think I'm her young master. She also took my hand and walked in the direction she came.

"Xu Ji Gambling"? What do you mean?

The girl led me to the gate with the sign "Xu Ji Gambling" hanging in front of the door and stopped.

"Young master, you can go in and see for yourself." The girl let go of my hand and said.

"What are you doing here?" I asked the girl back. But she had long since run away.

The door was open, and when I stood outside, I heard the commotion inside. I stepped in.

There are a lot of people gambling in it, this is what my grandfather said, before liberation, my ancestors opened a casino in Panhu Town?

It was a two-story wooden building, the size of four or five hundred square meters. On the lower floor, there are more than a dozen gaming tables, surrounded by many people. There are pai gow, mahjong, solitaire, and guessing odd and even pips. Like the current Guess Po.

I passed by one table after another, and strangely enough, none of them looked at me as if I didn't exist.

I patted the man standing in front of me looking at Guess Po on the shoulder and asked him, "Hey, is this Guess Po?" ”

The man didn't react as if nothing had happened. And I didn't feel any real touch when my hand tapped him on the shoulder.

I slapped him again, but I still didn't feel it at all. I'm weird. Just then I heard a familiar voice.

"Dad, he's waiting for you upstairs."

I looked back and saw a fourteen or fifteen-year-old boy talking behind a tall, handsome man of about forty years of age.

Grandfather? The boy looked like a grandfather. Even the sound is like that.

I hurriedly followed.

"Master Xu, please, buy my daughter Guilian, she looks smart and well-behaved. I'm sure I'll be able to take care of you.

If you don't buy her, the loan sharks will sell her to the kiln. Please, Master Xu, buy Rosewood. ”

Entering the room with a curtain on the right door on the second floor, a bearded man knelt down in front of the tall, handsome man and begged.

Master Xu? My grandfather's father?

I saw the imposing man sit down on the chair that the servant had brought him. He pointed to the man who was kneeling on the ground and said, "You don't know what to do, how many times have I helped you?" Don't let you bet, you actually go to someone else's casino to gamble. Now that you've lost and sold your sons, you're coming to me again. You're simply an ungrateful thing. I don't want to see you again.

Anyway, you didn't lose in my field, so I can't control it. I don't want the money you used to owe me. Let's go. ”

Master Xu was very angry, and after speaking, he turned his face to the side and didn't bother to look at the man kneeling on the ground.

The man kowtowed desperately and begged Master Xu.

At this time, the boy standing next to Master Xu said, "Dad, you can help him one last time." Through such a blow, he may really reflect on it.

Give him another chance to work in the casino, and I'll help you watch him stop him from gambling. His son doesn't know where he was sold, and his daughter is still young, will she be able to live if she is sold to the kiln? ”

Master Xu glanced at his son.

After being silent for a while, he pointed to the man kneeling on the ground: "Thank you young master, you will not be allowed to leave one step after following the young master, if you don't listen to the young master, I will kill you." ”

When the man heard this, he quickly turned around and thanked the boy.

The boy said again: "Ye Lao Er, I begged my father to help you for my cousin's sake." I'll pay it back for you, with your wages from working in the casino. From now on, you'll be working behind me. Go ahead. ”

"Thank you, young master! I will definitely change, I will let Guilian come to the young master's side to serve the young master. Her wages are also considered to be in debt. ”

"Let her serve my mother, there is no shortage of people around me." Young Master Xu waved his hand at Ye Lao Er.

Wow, grandpa is awesome. At such a young age, he knew about cooking affairs.

"Grandpa, are you my grandfather?"

I walked up to my grandfather and pulled him by the sleeve and called out to him. But my hand seemed to be holding air. It doesn't feel like it's a physical object at all.

Grandpa walked straight out the door as if he hadn't heard.

I followed him and shouted desperately, "Grandpa, grandpa······"

"Master, it's time to get up. Master, it's time to get up. ”

A phone alarm woke me up from my dream.
