Chapter 475: Sand Buried Ancient City (13)
With a proud mood, he accepted a few stacks of coins on the table, and happily gave a stack of rewards to the maid behind him, and hugged the smiling woman and kissed the two.
I'm afraid this is the most comfortable time in the trip to the ancient city, and the fat man with a good gambling personality continues to shout to start the next game.
After a few rounds in a row, the ancient coins piled up in front of the fat man gathered more and more, on the contrary, the face of the man in Chinese clothes was a little gloomy and frightening, and he almost couldn't help but be rude.
This fat man shouldn't be out of the middle, no matter how he guesses so accurately.
The red-eyed man in gorgeous clothes instructed the maid to fetch one of his ancient mirrors, and then pressed the ancient mirror onto the gambling table.
The fat man Nunu who didn't understand the intentions of the man in Chinese clothes, this is a few meanings, and a mirror can also be counted as gambling money: "Little white face, you are in a hurry, if you don't have any money, go home and get it, what do you do with a broken mirror." ”
Broken mirrors!
The fat man's disdain completely annoyed the other party, how did the fat man know that in the era when the ancient city was located, mirrors were rare, and a mirror could even be worth tens of thousands of gold.
It was the dealer who came forward to solve the siege and explained to the fat man: "Distinguished guest, this moonlight mirror is a treasure, and it is not too much to pay ten thousand taels in our place." ”
Thinking about it, it may be that the manufacturing process of mirrors is not very mature here, and scarce resources are always expensive, so the fat man sighed twice and nodded in approval. It's not strange that red-eyed gamblers who lose in casinos press their belongings and even their wives and children.
The dice cup rose and fell several times, and the dealer dropped the dice cup on the table, politely and humbly said: "Two distinguished guests, please place a bet." ”
The fat man's earlobe still moved twice, and the dice points were already clear in his heart, thinking that since this mirror was worth ten thousand gold, he would simply press it all up.
So he pushed the coin mountain in front of him and said, "I'll buy..."No, the tone of the banker's voice is more and more like a person after a few rounds, and the picture of the voice owner turned several times in his mind, and he couldn't contact the corresponding name.
When he was stunned, he happened to look at the mirror on the gambling table, the material used in the ancient mirror should be bronze, the mirror surface is a little rough, and it can clearly refract the surrounding things.
The outline of the dealer appeared on the mirror, and after a closer look, the fat man took a few breaths of cold air, and said trembling in his heart: Why is he, isn't he the second master Jiang? How could he be here, and still dressed like this?
The more I think about it, the more suspicious I feel, and all kinds of incredible feelings are entrenched in the fat man's inner world.
At an angle, the mirror reflected the face of a man in gorgeous clothes, and a skeleton without skin and flesh was wrapped under a splendid and luxurious garment. There are many maggots in and out of the holes on the skull, and the picture is disgusting and terrifying.
It's all gambling with a bunch of people!
After hesitating, I heard the dealer again, no, it was Jiang Erye's urging voice: "Distinguished guest, please place a bet." ”
The sound was urging, and the fat man felt that his heart was about to burst out. The picture in the mirror is completely different from the real world I see in my eyes, and the private room that seems to be chic and ornate is actually covered with cobwebs, and there is a four-legged animal with a dark body climbing in the corner of the wall.
Now it is extremely difficult to even take a breath, and he barely squeezes out a smile, and smiles with a trilled ugly smile: "Okay. I'm down. Bet. ”
Cold sweat flowed big and big, and his legs and feet were even a little numb, he really didn't want to continue gambling.
The voice of the man in Chinese clothes came, and said, "What are you waiting for, the last one, are you afraid?" ”
As if they were peeping through, the tone was coercive.
At that moment, the fat man hurriedly closed his eyes and flipped over the table, pushed away the two girls beside him without saying a word, and ran away as if fleeing towards the door.
The stuffy head bumped into a person who happened to enter the door, and the frightened fat man didn't care who was coming, he tried his best to push the other party, and shouted: "Get out!" Get out of the way, don't stop me, it's terrible! It's scary. ”
But he didn't see clearly that the person who stopped at the door was Yinxi.
When I turned my head in the market, I found that the people behind me were gone, and the merchants and shops along the street that were closed in the market on weekdays, only one room had the door open, and it was the gambling house.
I heard the hearty laughter of the fat man from the second floor, and I was puzzled before I dared to break in.
While walking, my father had warned me that no house courtyard in the outer city was allowed to enter easily, and they had been sealed in the dust for many years and no one had opened them, and if it wasn't for the fat man's laughter, she would never have taken any risks.
I didn't know that the first floor was so empty that I couldn't even see a figure, and at this time, the fat man's laughter continued to come from the second floor.
In desperation, Yin Xi had no choice but to drag the long skirt of the cigarette cage and walk carefully towards the second floor step by step on the overwhelmed stairs, and happened to come to the door of the private room, and bumped into the fat man who rushed out.
I didn't want to do anything with this guy, but the fat man rushed over and touched it randomly, and in desperation, he kicked the fat man back to the gambling table.
Then with a glimmer, Yin Xi unscrewed the water bag and splashed it at the fat man, saying, "You're crazy, it's me." ”
The cold water poured the fat man all over his body, and the chill through his body made him completely sober up, and when he saw the sound of the light at the door, his mood calmed down.
Stunned, he said, "Miss Yinxi, it turned out to be you." Just now... The picture just now is really terrifying. ”
At first glance, stacks of coins are stacked on the gambling table, and on the two seats, there is a skeleton shelf wrapped in gorgeous clothes lying in front of the gaming table, and the other person is Jiang Erye, who is the dealer, who is already in the form of a skeleton.
Memory, there is still the old face of Jiang Erye, and it is not clear why it is only Jiang Erye who is seen, and not others.
The fat man couldn't imagine that if Yin Xi hadn't broken in at the right time, he would have been in danger of his life, and he would have died here.
No building here can be easily entered, Yin Xi pouted and warned: "Come down with me, don't break into such a building indiscriminately in the future, but you will die." ”
Following behind Yinxi, the two returned to the market at the door, and Zhu Beichen and Qijian were still not seen in the empty market.
Yin Xi explained: Let me be honest with you, it is said that many years ago, an accident in the city killed many people. Some didn't even have time to pick up the bodies, and all the people were evacuated. Later, the gates of the inner city were closed, and those who did not have time to enter the city were blocked outside the inner city.
When I returned to this bazaar, I had an indescribable feeling that the bazaar was different from before, but I couldn't tell where the bazaar had changed.
In short, Zhu Beichen and Qijian are missing.
