Chapter 36: She's Waiting for Him

In Macau, casinos are not called casinos, but casinos.

It is said that this is a little more elegant.

The Hotel Lisboa used to be the largest and most famous casino in Macau. After decades of monopoly operation by the gambling king Ho, the Lisboa Hotel is as well-known as St. Paul's and other attractions, and is one of Macau's most famous landmarks.

Later, in the new century, the Macau government liberalized the gambling rights, the American capital entered Macao to pan for gold, Wynn, MGM, The Venetian and other comprehensive hotels integrating shopping, dining and entertainment opened one after another, especially the Venetian has become a must-visit project for tour groups today.

Seeing that the status of the rivers and lakes was about to be lost, Mr. He waved his hand and built a magnificent Grand Lisboa Hotel across the road from the Lisboa Hotel.

In 2007, the Grand Lisboa Palace was inaugurated. Ho! It has become a landmark again.

At this time, Qi Zihuan was standing on the side of the road of Dr. Luo Liji, looking up at the glittering Grand Lisboa Building.

After hanging up the phone with a smile just now, he finally enjoyed the jacuzzi comfortably, soaked until his skin was red, and then lazily went downstairs and went to the tea restaurant to eat a bowl of shrimp wonton noodles.

At this time, he has eaten and rested, and he feels that his spirit has been cultivated to the peak, and he is preparing to achieve a small goal in his life.

Let's say win it 100 million first.

To be reasonable, but as long as the male compatriots who have watched the Fa Ge movie, who can not have a windbreaker with a big back and a jade jade wrench dream of the God of Gambling.

Although the goal was quite heroic, Qi Zihuan still dared to go up to the overpass from the side of the road cowardly, and then directly enter the second floor from the overpass.

I can't get through the main entrance. Grand Lisboa is not only the masterpiece of the gambling king He Lao, but also the crystallization of local feng shui culture, and the large and small feng shui bureaus in the building are everywhere.

For example, the shape of the building, the official version is that a lotus flower grows on a golden egg, but in fact it is bullshit, and anyone looks like a giant sword stuck in a net-like spherical birdcage.

This bird cage is called "Hundred Birds Returning to the Nest Cage", which means that it is easy to enter and difficult to get out. Especially at night, when the lights are bright, every gambler who enters the market has become a caged bird in this golden birdcage.

The giant sword above the birdcage, there are many streamlines on the sword body from the side, and it is more like countless sharp swords stabbing down from all directions, which is the famous "Ten Thousand Arrows Piercing the Heart Killing Array" in Feng Shui.

Not afraid yet?

The main gate is like a tiger like a lion, which shouts "lion and tiger double evil array". The crystal chandeliers on the ceiling of the lobby are all bat-shaped, which is called "bat mouse hanging gold line". At the top of each table is a claw-shaped design, called the "Tenro Umbrella". In addition, the Grand Lisboa Palace is decorating its interior almost every day of the year, either repairing toilets or stairs, and the reason is that the homonym for "decoration" in Cantonese is "Zhuang Harvest".

The so-called one life, two luck and three feng shui, Qi Zihuan doesn't care about his own life and luck, at least he doesn't dare to carry it with Grand Lisboa in feng shui, and he can hide a little bit by walking through a side door.

Entering the field, Qi Zihuan had a refreshing feeling. Needless to say, the interior decoration is called a luxurious atmosphere in the super-large area of the gambling hall on several floors, and the hundreds of gaming tables are crowded with people, coupled with the non-stop ding dong sound of the electronic gaming area, it seems to be very lively.

He was not in a hurry, he slowly walked between the tables, looked east and west, and found that all the tables in the hall had a betting limit, and the minimum was 200 Hong Kong dollars.

After shopping around for a long time, he stopped at a sic bo table to try, but unfortunately he bought a big dealer to open a small dealer, he bought a small dealer to buy a big one, and he didn't dare to play again after losing three in a row.

Carefully recall the notes they made, it seems that only baccarat is relatively the fairest game, the banker and the player each deal two or three cards, add up to the single digit ratio of the number of points, the big one wins, the draw does not win or lose.

He recalled the rules for a while, and then found a baccarat platform, first stood next to the electronic screen for a long time, and finally waited for a four-in-a-row village road, then cautiously followed others to buy a village.

With a burst of cheers, the dealer won by nine points.

He took the dealer's compensation to the stakes, and the flat bet kept up again, and so on, until after the nine consecutive villages, he had a handful of leisure.

After winning the money, his courage naturally increased, Qi Zihuan simply pulled out a chair and sat on the last vacant seat, asked for another glass of water, and decided to play slowly here.

The other people on the stage are very skilled and professional, often holding their hands when looking at the cards, first slowly turning over a side, and then turning another direction to turn a corner, and at the same time shouting rhythmically in their mouths "Blow, Blow, Blow", "Dingding" or "TV", if there is an audience behind them, they will often shout nervously together, and the scene is exactly the same as in the old Hong Kong film.

Occasionally, when it was Qi Zihuan's turn to look at the cards, he couldn't learn the posture of others, and he simply turned it over, making the surrounding spectators roll their eyes, and felt that there was a lot less tension.

Maybe it's really novice luck, Qi Zihuan's bets win more and lose less, and once he bought a player pair, winning 11 times the chips at a time. When everyone saw his good luck, they all followed him to bet, and they gave priority to him to look at the cards, just like the stars and the moon, which made him more complacent.

Until the mobile phone vibrated in his pocket and left the table to connect the phone, he was still in a state of excitement.

"Hehe, your voice sounds like a lot of wins?" On the other end of the line, of course, there was a smile.

"Yes, I changed the chips for 2,000 Hong Kong dollars, and now there should be more than 10,000." Qi Zihuan said proudly.

"It's getting dark, I'm also at Lisboa, why don't you go to dinner first?"

"Well, I'm having a good time, and I want to play again, why don't you come in and wait for me?" I'll treat you to a meal. ”

Reluctant to get off the table when you win, and unwilling to get off the table when you lose, this is a common problem of gamblers all over the world.

Xiaoxiao was not annoyed, and asked after a while: "Among the techniques you have learned, is there a way to clear your mind and calm your qi?" ”

"Yes, I'll clear my heart."

"Get out and look around." The tone of the smile is still faint, but there is an unquestionable meaning.

Speaking of this, Qi Zihuan also knew that he was in the wrong state, so he silently recited a heart-clearing mantra at the moment, and his mind and thoughts slowly calmed down.

Looking at the gambling table again, whether they win or lose, almost all of them have scattered eyebrows, blank eyes, red faces, and distorted expressions, like evil ghosts.

Thinking of himself like this just now, he suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.

At first, he just wanted to come to see the world and play at will, and he also set a rule in his heart for himself to lose 2,000 or win 2,000 and leave, but he still fell into it unconsciously, and he still didn't know it if he didn't smile and remind him.

Quickly exchanged the chips for cash and walked out.

Outside the Grand Lisboa Gate, the building is lit up with neon lights, and the square is full of tourists, some people stop to take pictures, and some people hurry by. Passing through the bustling crowd, he saw the girl across the road at a glance.

The mood that had just risen and fallen was calm for a moment.

He knew that she was waiting for him.
