Chapter 32: The Storm

As soon as he finished speaking, a child in tattered clothes came running up the stairs.

He rushed straight into Ji Yunchang's scholar, then turned around, grabbed the big duck leg I had only eaten and stuffed it into his mouth, and jumped out of the window.

I was shocked, and hurriedly leaned on the window to look, he was grabbing the colored satin used to decorate the lantern by the window, and quickly slid to the ground, as if feeling that I was looking at him, he looked up and looked at me, bit the duck leg, swished into the person, and disappeared in an instant.

"Hey, you little bunny!" The shopkeeper who followed closely scolded all the way, and when he saw that the people had already run away, he hurriedly said to us, "Sorry guest officer, didn't scare a few people, right?" Why don't I give you a different plate of duck sauce? ”

Ji Yun often looked at me, I was actually full, so he said, "No need, pack the dishes that didn't come up, and settle the account." ”

"Okay, officer, wait a minute, eh...... It's a total of fifty-one taels and three dollars, and I will give you a round and charge you fifty-one taels. ”

Ji Yunchang nodded, and the scholar next to him immediately went to touch the money belt, touched it a few times, and immediately cried and said with a sad face, "Shao...... Young master, the money bag is lost......"

"It can't be the guy who stole it, right?" Green Bead whispered.

Before he went upstairs, he still had a money bag on his waist, and no one else came up to eat, so he knew that the person had stolen it. Fortunately, I didn't lose much money, so I let Luzhu settle the bill, take the meal and go downstairs.

After eating, it was not time, I was afraid that it would be difficult to come out of the house at this time, I turned a corner, and wanted Ji Yunchang to go back first, but he followed by his side without saying a word.

I happened to walk past a street market selling snacks, so I had to pretend that I wanted to eat it, buy a sugar gourd in the east, buy a box of lotus cakes in the west, and pick a place where there were many people queuing up to buy it, thinking about delaying the time, and when he was impatient to leave, I would go to the flower street again.

But it's so time-consuming, and it's not a way, after a while, the things in the hands of the green beads and the scholar can't be taken down, and I will line up at the osmanthus cake stall where there are fifty or sixty people lined up not far from Ji Yunchang's branch road, and I muttered in my heart.

It's not a way to buy it like this, and besides, you can't come back and buy it again when you see that you're at the end of the street, right?

Just thinking about it, Lu Zhu suddenly shouted, "Look, it's the one who stole the money bag!" ”

Following the direction of her finger, a child in tattered clothes was standing in front of a stall selling meat buns and nibbling on steamed buns.

"Don't run!" The scholar shouted and chased after him, and Luzhu and I followed suit.

The kid ran very fast, and was very familiar with this area, and disappeared without a trace. The scholar is very persistent, chasing him down a side alley, and he has a posture of not giving up if he doesn't catch him.

Lu Zhu took a lot of things, and after running a short distance, I squatted on the ground and gasped, so I also stopped, thinking that when the scholar came back, I would go to Ji Yunchang together, but at this time, a person wearing only a middle coat flew out of thin air in the oblique thorn, impartial, and landed at my feet.

"Ahem...... cough..."This man fell not lightly, and it took a long time before he coughed.

A few reckless men came out of the door on the side, and the one with the green stubble snorted and scolded, "Don't look at yourself for anything, run the gambling house to make trouble, don't give you some color, you don't know who you are, this time it's to take your clothes!" Let Lao Tzu see you again, knock your legs, get out!! With that, he took a sip and turned to go into the house.

Then I saw that we were standing in front of a large three-story gambling house, and there were constant shouts from inside, and business was booming.

The Red Mansion Gambling House sells gold caves, and the wealth walls of Wanguan are like slaughter, these two places have been like this since ancient times, how many people are tempted, but in the end they end up with nothing. The Li Jiu I helped before was, because of a gambling word, the old father didn't even have the money for the burial.

"Ahem...... Rabbit cub, he actually played a trick! The underground man slowed down for a long time, and finally was able to get up, he got up while scolding, looked up and saw me, and shouted in disbelief, "Engong? Why are you here? ”

For a moment, I almost fainted. I never thought that the person on the ground was Li Jiu!

Li Jiu's face was slightly red, and he quickly got up and said, "Engong, listen to my explanation, I'm not here to gamble, I've quit gambling!" ”。

Well, quit, and then someone took off their clothes and threw them out of it.

Seeing that my face was not good, his face turned even redder, "Engong, today's incident is really for a reason, you listen to my explanation." ”

Seeing that I was silent, Li Jiu said, "Engong, do you remember the janitor who asked me to check last time?" ”

He looked up at me and continued, "My little brother found out, that person's name is Qiao Qi, and he has been watching the gate of the Yulin Pavilion for several years, and he usually doesn't come out.

This man has a dull personality and a preference for gambling, and my little brother waited for a few days, and finally saw him go out, and followed him all the way into the casino, so he immediately went over to inform me. Who knows, when I came, he had already lost all his belongings in betting, and he had no money to pay back when he lost a lot, and he was about to be chopped off by the boss to offset the account.

I thought, even if Engong wants to find someone, naturally he can't watch him crippled, so I stepped forward to ask him how much he owed, and wanted to help him replace it, this gambling house, Li Jiu has always been here before, and the family's deed was lost here. The boss saw that it was me who was nosy, so he asked me to gamble with him. He said that as long as I win, he will give me people. ”

Li Jiu's face turned red again, "At that time, I thought I wouldn't lose, so I agreed, who knows, they actually went out of the thousands, won my silver, and went to my clothes!" Eun Gong, I'm really not here to gamble......"

Looking at his appearance, it doesn't look like he is lying, since he came here to do something for me, naturally it is not good to say anything, so he let Luzhu take the money and go to the coat shop to buy clothes for him to wear. It's just that with kung fu, two more people were thrown out of it, all of them wearing only Chinese clothes, and they scolded the dealer for making a thousand.

I became interested and asked Li Jiu, "How do you know that they are out of thousands?" ”

Li Jiudao said, "Back to Engong, we used to compare the size of the dice with the dice. I obviously sounded like a small dot, but when I opened it, it became a big dot! ”

I whispered, "This alone does not prove that the other party is out of the thousands, can you see that they have tricks and feet?" ”

He thought for a while and said, "But I really didn't see how to make a thousand, maybe the technique is too high to see." ”

Technique? In this world, there is no way to be faster than the eyes! Only play a thousand, look carefully, absolutely goofs!

Looking at the crowded casino gate, I thought a little, "That's where you lost your previous house?" ”

Li Jiu nodded, and his face changed again.

"This casino has a lot of money in one day, right?"

Li Jiu was stunned, as if he didn't understand what I was saying.

I didn't bother to pay attention to it, brushed it open, and strode forward, "Let's go, go in and have a look." ”

"Hey...... Small...... Childe, let's not go in. "Green Bead Face came blind to stop it. I ignored it and stepped into the gambling house in two steps.

"Come on, come on, buy it and leave!"

"I'll press five taels and buy big!"

"I'll press three copper coins, small!"

As soon as I entered the gambling house, there was an endless stream of calls, and people gathered in a circle, bidding chips with the impact of the cup box and the dice.

I took a general glance, this gambling house is very standardized, only this floor is divided into several areas, the gambling code can go inside, the tables and chairs inside are more elegant, and the small gambling money is guessed outside. There are some rice and root potatoes in the corner, and it seems that this place is not afraid of anyone who comes, and you can gamble on anything...

"Oooo It's you again, and you almost didn't recognize it. ”

As soon as he entered the inside, the green stubble saw Li Jiu, his face sank, and he said, "I have already said just now, I will discount your legs when I see you again, you still dare to come in to find trouble, am I really joking?" Come on, call me! ”

"Yes!" Immediately, a reckless man came out of the room, rolled up his arms and was about to come.

"Wait!" I shouted to stop it.

The green stubble circled me up and down, and I saw that I was dressed well, so he eased his expression and said politely, "This little boy, I don't know why I came to the gambling house to gather wealth?" ”

I swiped it and closed the fan, smiling slightly, "Come to the gambling house, naturally I want to bet two, I heard that my friend just left his clothes here, I think it is fresh, so I came to take a look, I don't know if it can be convenient?" ”

As soon as I heard that I was going to play two, Qing Stubble's face immediately smiled, "Look at what the son said, the person who came is a guest, what is convenient or inconvenient, please ...... inside"

As he spoke, he hunched over and pulled a few of us to the table. Then he called someone to come over and change the cup, opened a new box of dice in front of him and put it in, and asked, "I don't know the child, do you want to play guessing the points, or compare the size?" ”

"Let's play two guess the points first. Green beads, pressed codes. ”

Green Bead had no choice but to pull out the smallest piece of silver from his money bag.

The green stubble signaled that the dice could be shaken, and the dealer raised the cup box and swayed it up and down, left and right, "Smack!" "All of a sudden, it fell on the case.

"Engong, it's bigger." Li Jiu whispered in my ear.

I nodded and said, "Pressure." And the green bead put the broken silver on the big side.

"Open!" The green stubble shouted, and the cup box was picked up, six, eight, nine, and it was really big.

Green Stubble immediately lost a piece of broken silver. The dealer continued to shake the dice, and once again snapped down.

"Engong, this time it's still big." Li Jiuyou reminded again.

"Great!" I motioned for the green beads to crush the broken silver. There is no doubt that this time it was won.

Seven or eight times in a row, almost all of them were what I pressed to win, and seeing that the money I won more than several times, Luzhu was very excited, took out all the money in the money bag, and waited for me to give the order to bet.

"Smack!" The cup box fell, and the green stubble looked at me and said, "Childe, this game is too big and small?" I'm sure to leave it."

"Childe, listen to the voice is small. But you have to be careful that he is out of a thousand, Li Jiu planted it like this last time. ”

Li Jiu guessed all the way right, it should be right that this box is small. But I just saw the green stubble and laughed again......

Pressure big, pressure small......
