Chapter 26: A Cruel Gamble
"It's a gathering of delicacies from all over the world, I can't help but smell this fragrance, can I sit down and taste a little?" Kao Dong suddenly looked at the beautiful girl beside him and asked. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Of course, we charge by the time as a guide, whether you are playing or visiting, we will accompany you throughout the whole process, you can taste it with confidence." The girl leaned slightly, revealing a sweet smile, and her voice was light and beautiful.
"So? Then don't stand still, let's have a little together, the boss has two steaks! ”
"Come on! Guest, please wait a minute, it will be right away. A young second brother shouted enthusiastically, this small shop is a little unconventional, but it has some classical flavor.
The girl didn't move for a long time, and Kao Dong couldn't help but raise her head strangely: "Why don't you sit?" Don't like steaks? So what do you want to eat? I'll help you, thank you for being my guide. ”
"I'm sorry sir, but we have a policy that there is an additional charge for accompanying guests for services other than guides."
"What? No...... I pay you to eat, and you still have to charge? Forget it, I'll eat it myself. Kao Dong lowered his head and ate by himself, what are you kidding, he kindly invited someone to eat, and he still had to charge for it?
He's not wronged, it's really inexplicable!
The girl was standing quietly aside, her face was flushed, her face was full of embarrassment, she was going to sit down, it was normal for the waiter to accompany the tourists to eat in the corner capital, and the charge was indeed the company's rule, five yin and yang coins at a time, of course, they could also get a commission, so they were also happy to accompany the guests to eat.
It's just that she never expected that after the guest in front of her heard that she was going to be charged, she didn't even ask the price and told her that she wouldn't let her eat, and then started eating by herself. The first time she met such a shabby tourist, she was a little restless for a while, but out of professional courtesy, she couldn't just leave, but it was a bit ...... for her to watch the tourists eat like this
Especially standing here.
"Uh...... Why don't you wait outside for me? Kao Dong suddenly turned around and said.
"Okay!" With Kaodong's permission, the girl almost quickened her pace and escaped from the hotel and waited in the waiting area.
Kao Dong shrugged his shoulders indifferently and continued his steak, to be honest, the steak in this corner capital is really not blown, and it feels like it hasn't been held after eating two pieces.
"Boss, one more."
"Great!"
Killing another piece of steak with a big opening, Kao Dong patted his belly with satisfaction and left at the checkout.
I have to say that this corner of the capital is really an underground castle, the area is far beyond Kaodong's imagination, just to visit the perfect food department he spent two hours, and then look at this entertainment department, what singing, dancing, chess, gambling, martial arts, everything.
Kao Dong came to a yin-yang gambling hall, and the scene inside attracted Kao Dong.
"Huh? Yin-Yang Casino? And this kind of place? How to gamble? Look at ...... to go."
"The Yin-Yang Gambling Hall is a place to bet on Yin-Yang coins, there is an ordinary area, and there is also a special Taoist area, all kinds of ways to play, Mr., please come with me, I will introduce you one by one." The girl enthusiastically led Kao Dong into the hall.
The inside is different from the gambling hall outside, the decoration is very foreign, and thousands of figures are gathered in different gangs around the hall, shouting and shouting.
"Big big ...... Go big! ”
"Small, small, small......"
"Fuck, fucking little ...... again"
"Hahaha...... Lao Tzu was lucky today, he won again, and continued to press the small ......"
……
"This is the general area, just like the casinos outside, there are all kinds of poker, sieve and so on." The girl pointed to the outermost part of the hall.
The two walked all the way.
"Behind this is the Dao art area, the first half is mostly Dao masters, and the second half is almost the real onmyoji, such as the gang you saw again, they are gambling on ghost balls."
"Ghost balls?" Kao Dong frowned, it was the first time he had heard such a new term.
The girl nodded, and continued to introduce: "Well, the so-called ghost ball, in fact, is what people often call ghost fire, ghost fire appears within an hour after the death of ordinary life, this kind of gameplay is to kill a rabbit, and then a group of people guess the exact time of the appearance of the ghost fire and the color of the ghost fire, the closer the result is to the actual bounty, the higher the odds, and vice versa, this test is the understanding of yin and yang knowledge, and the degree of opening of yin and yang eyes." ”
"Are all the rabbits freshly caught? Alive? ”
"Hehe, of course it's alive, otherwise how can there be a ghost fire?"
"Wouldn't that be too cruel?" Kao Dong frowned unhappily, there are still people who play with life like this?
"Is it cruel? Perhaps, but do humans like to play like this? Sir, look over there, you may think it's more cruel, it's the same ghost ball, but what they're going to slaughter is a cow, and there's a horse, and a snake, and a chicken...... All kinds of animals are just playthings, do you know where the souls of these animals that are used to gamble on ghost balls go after death? The girl glanced at Kao Dong quietly, that glance was very complicated, very profound, and he felt uncomfortable all over, he had a delusion, the girl in front of him seemed to be deliberately testing him something.
"Where?"
"Excessive, dissecting ......," the girl said without changing her face.
"What do you mean?" Kao Dong frowned deeply.
"You come with me, that's why I said that almost all of the people who played in the second half were real onmyoji, did you see the flames in those glass jars? That is the soul of the various animals left over from the first half of the game, and their fate is only one, that is, to continue to be played with as a bet, of course, the result may be completely different, the lucky will be sent to excess, and the unfortunate will only be dissected, and nothing will be left. ”
Kao Dong clasped his hands in front of his chest, quietly listening to the girl's introduction, it turned out that the second half of the game was more profound, it turned out to be the soul of the supernatural animal, or the dissecting of the soul, who was faster in time, more than whom, and the bets were more than one hundred yin and yang coins.
Kao Dong even saw with his own eyes that the soul of a little rabbit was dissected alive by an onmyoji into three souls and six spirits, and finally disappeared without a trace, completely scattered between heaven and earth.
Kao Dong clenched his fists tightly, and there was an indescribable anger in his heart.
However, the girl glanced at Kao Dong from time to time, and when she saw Kao Dong's angry expression, there was a faint hint of gratitude in her eyes, which was difficult for others to notice, but her facial expression did not change at all, as if she had long been surprised.
"Sir? Do you need to go and have some fun? The girl asked Kao Dong specifically.
Kao Dong suddenly turned his head, glanced at the girl, exhaled, and nodded: "Play, of course you have to play!" ”
The girl frowned, didn't speak, just followed behind Kaodong!
