It turns out that this is the case, this thing is really to say, Duanyang was not so rich before, but a few years ago he was still a poor bastard with nothing, and when he was the poorest, he was so poor that he didn't even have a big son on his body, and eating became a problem. Of course, he was rich before, and after the reform and opening up, he was also the first batch of people who went to the sea to pan for gold, and he lived a good life, although he was not a big rich, but he was also a little rich.

There is a popular proverb: "It is better to make money than to save money." This is very reasonable, even if there are mountains of gold and silver in the family, they can't stand the squandering of the descendants of the losers.

Just a few years ago, Duanyang also earned a lot of property by going to the sea to do business in the past few years, enough to live a life without worrying about food and clothing, but he refused to learn well, thinking that he was rich, so he began not to make progress, but was intoxicated by flowers, wine and green. Of course, this is also related to the society at that time, because after entering the 90s, the society was full of metropolises, and the drunkenness of money disturbed people's minds. And this Duanyang is to lose his mind, first indulged in eating, drinking and having fun, squandered a lot of money everywhere, and left behind the poverty when he had no money before.

Because of his lavish spending, he also got to know a group of fox friends and dog friends, and he spends every day drinking. At that time, there was a kind of gambling popular around them, called "fried gold flower", players win or lose with three cards in their hands, players can continue to bet, when there are only two players left, no matter how many rounds can be compared, the game needs to test the player's courage and wisdom.

Originally, Duanyang was not very interested in this, but the fox friends around him pulled him to play every day. I don't know if Duanyang Zu has accumulated virtue, or his luck is really so good, at first he played "fried golden flower", that is a good card, whether you look at it or not, as long as you bet directly on it, it is basically a sure win. In a few months, Duanyang Ke earned nearly double his net worth.

This game can be fun, and in the end, don't you become addicted to gambling? People's hearts are insufficient, this is not wrong at all, Duanyang saw that this money came so quickly, so he didn't want his career, and he gambled in the casino every day.

But people's luck can't always be good, and it's impossible for God to take care of you all the time, in the next few days, Duanyang directly gambled on his belongings, and even sold the house, which can be described as bankrupt.

In a year, Duanyang has changed from a rich man to a penniless poor bastard, and once a person has no money, the group of fox friends and dog friends he made before will naturally disappear.

Duanyang, who was penniless and helpless, didn't even have money for food in the next few days, which forced him to a dead end. Eating, drinking, prostituting and gambling are used to it, and it is obviously reluctant for him to do things again, he does not repent, but still thinks that he will be able to turn it over one day.

Next, he began to borrow usury, but the more he gambled, the more he lost, and in the end the borrowed money naturally could not be repaid, so he was beaten half to death by the loan sharks and thrown into a small forest in the suburbs.

Duanyang, who was beaten all over his body, was left with a small life, and he was in a coma in the grove for a day, and he didn't wake up until midnight at night. At this time, he was already completely desperate, knowing that if he still had no money to repay the loan shark, he might not even be able to save his life next time. Hungry and sleepy, he saw a light in the grove and thought that someone might be living there, so he walked in the dark to the place where the light was.

The light was absent, and he followed the light, through a small forest in front of him, and then noticed a ruined temple in front of him, and the light came out of the ruined temple.

This temple has been destroyed for a long time, the artemisia grass grows taller than a person between the broken walls and ruins, the doors and windows have long been broken, and the beams and doors and windows have fallen to the ground, and it looks like a deserted and uninhabited temple. Duanyang was also a little strange when he saw this, how could there be lights in such a broken temple?

Intrigued, he walked to the temple. But as soon as he got closer, he was startled, because when he got closer, he found that the temple was surrounded by low dirt bags, and the dirt bags were overgrown with weeds. Because some of the dirt bags have been washed away by the rain for many years, the soil on the soil bags has been lost, and a broken coffin has been exposed, so at first glance in the moonlight, the whole surrounding mounds are piled up, and the ancient trees cover the sky, which looks gloomy and chilling.

At this time, Duanyang also knew that he had run into a mass grave. Although he was scared in his heart, he was in pain all over his body at this time, and he was so hungry that he couldn't do it, and when he saw the faint fire in the temple, he was even more afraid of wandering around in the woods in the middle of the night, so he walked into the broken temple with his head stiff.

As soon as I entered the ruined temple, there were indeed people inside, and I saw that there was a dilapidated land lord in the temple, and there was a beggar in white clothes sitting there under the statue of the land lord, drinking wine.

Why is it said to be a beggar, because although this person is a man, he has long hair and wears a robe, which is not the usual normal person's dress at all.

Duanyang didn't dare to go over easily, so he just stood at the door and looked at the man. At this time, the man also found that someone had entered the temple, and he couldn't help but turn his head to Duanyang and said, "Brother, why did you come here when there is no one here?" ”

Duanyang said, "Big brother, I was put in a bag and thrown here. I saw that there was a fire here, so I looked for it. As he spoke, he touched his face and shivered in pain.

After hearing this, the man glanced at Duanyang, who was covered in injuries, and then said: "Now it's the third watch, since you can't go back, it's better to stay and drink with me!" ”

Duanyang hurriedly thanked each other, then walked over, and the two began to eat and drink.

Don't say it, this person looks like a beggar, but he has wine and meat, and Duanyang hasn't eaten for a day, so he eats very happily. The two of them pushed the glass and changed the glass, and after three rounds of drinking, they were already called brothers.

When Duanyang asked his name why he had stayed overnight, the man claimed to be named Yuqing and had been here for hundreds of years.

Duanyang was also a little drunk at the time, just thinking it was a joke, because the person named Yuqing in front of him was in his early forties at most, how could he be hundreds of years old?

Yuqing asked Duanyang how he was beaten like this, Duanyang sighed, and told the story that he had lost money gambling and lost his family, saying that he owed a lot of usury and had no money to repay, so he was severely beaten. Speaking of this, Duanyang was full of sadness and despair, and a glass of bitter wine poured out endless helplessness and unwillingness.

At this time, the man named Yuqing patted Duanyang on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry about my brother, isn't it just to lose some money, and win it back another day." ”

When Duanyang heard this, he sighed helplessly, and said that now my little brother has no capital, and his luck is extremely poor, and he is unable to turn over the book.

Yuqing smiled: "What's so difficult about this, I can borrow the capital from you to turn over the book." ”

When Duanyang heard this, his face was full of surprise, but then he smiled bitterly: "It's difficult to have money, the younger brother has very bad luck, and he is not sure about losing money." ”

Yuqing said: "I will pass you a spell, when you gamble money and bet, you only need to pronounce my name, you can want it to be what it is, why can't you win?" ”

Duanyang didn't believe it, thinking he was joking, and deliberately tricked him into being happy. Yuqing saw that he didn't believe it, so he asked him to take out the cards, and then let Duanyang try it in front of him.

Duanyang saw that Yuqing didn't seem to be joking, so he took out a deck of playing cards from his body, and then according to Yuqing's method, closed his eyes and read his name, and then shouted three A's, and then turned over the playing cards in his hand, and sure enough, there were three old A's, which is the biggest card.

Although Duanyang's heart was full of shock, he also thought it was just a coincidence, so he dealt the cards again, and the result was several times in a row, and every time he shouted that he would hit, and every time he made no mistakes. Only then did he understand that there was really such a curse in this world. At that moment, he was ecstatic, knowing that he was really going to make a fortune this time, and he could have any cards he wanted, so wouldn't he be sure to make a profit in the future?

At that moment, he was very grateful, and Yuqing said: "Look, I didn't lie to you, you will gamble tomorrow according to the method I taught you, and you won't lose." ”

Duanyang was moved to call his benefactor and asked Yuqing to help him like this, but he didn't know how to thank him. Yuqing said, as long as you make money, you can buy some wine and food every day.

As soon as Duanyang heard it, it was so simple, and he immediately swore that he would never be ungrateful, and he would definitely send good wine and food every day.

In this way, the two of them drank again, and Duanyang at this time swept away the bald waste, and the two of them got drunk as soon as they drank.

When Duanyang woke up again, it was already the sun shining, and Yuqing, who had been drinking with him last night, was gone. Although Yuqing was gone, he left a gold ingot for Duanyang and put it in the place where Yuqing sat last night.

Duanyang knew that this ingot of gold must be the money that Yuqing gave him to turn over, so he immediately took the ingot of gold and left the broken temple, returned to the city, and then went headlong into the casino......
