Yidi, on the coast of the East China Sea.

The bamboo house looked even more depressed under the continuous rain.

In front of the chai door and under the eaves, there was a black mastiff lying on his stomach, with a black body and no miscellaneous mane. The body is like a young tiger, and the head is like a lion.

It was drooping its head, spitting out a thick red tongue, its eyes glazed over, and its body did not move, except for a pair of ears and the sound of rain dripping from the corners of the eaves into the muddy pools, and occasionally shivering.

Although the black guy was only four months old, he was really quite tall, and he stood up straight enough to be the height of a half-grown child. It's lying in the doorway bored, and if you don't notice it, you can mistake it for a black rug.

"Zhang Fei......" suddenly there was a call in the room!

The black guy twisted his ears, but his body didn't move, he just tilted his big black eyes to the side and back, and there seemed to be a "hum" in his nose, and he ignored it.

The cries in the house rang twice more, and when there was no answer, they fell silent.

Suddenly, accompanied by a flattering "Xiao Feifei-", a long bamboo pole slowly stretched out from behind the door, and at the tip of the bamboo, the cow bone was tied with a thin rope and thrown out like a fishing bait.

This "bait", after slipping in the air for a few laps, gradually hung above Zhang Fei's big black nose.

Zhang Fei opened his nostrils and didn't raise his eyes, still maintaining that look of interest and ignorance, obviously, as far as this level of "bribery" is concerned, the temptation is very limited!

It's a bit of a stump for the people in the house.

Hurriedly poked his head out from behind the door, a pair of eyeballs, the thief turned around twice, and his face with a slightly disappointed expression was immediately full of coquettish smiles, "This is a fresh product!" In the morning, the king butcher slaughtered the remaining bones of the cow, he originally planned to use it all to make soup, but he couldn't stand it and said good things for a long time, so he reluctantly picked a few pieces and brought them back to me. You are growing your body now, gnawing more bones and supplementing calcium, and helping to grind your teeth by the way, it is really suitable!"

While trying his best to coax and persuade, he paid attention to the reaction of the black guy, who thought that the black guy wouldn't eat him at all, just like the old monk was settled.

"Hey, hey. He smiled awkwardly, and had no choice but to put away the bamboo pole first and put it on the wall.

Then he threw off the sleeves that had been rolled up, walked to the black guy with his back hand, squatted down, and looked at it with "sincerity" in his eyes.

Shaoqing began to say earnestly again: "I understand, you want to eat meat." Meat is delicious, but eating too much is not good for digestion, isn't it? If you suffer from high blood pressure, high blood lipids, high blood sugar or something, won't it be too late to regret it? Besides, it is easy to gain weight when you eat meat all the time, and once you grow fat, your body will not be fit, and when the time comes, your charm will be drastically reduced in front of those female mastiffs, and they will definitely dislike you for being bloated, slow, and insecure, and not enough to trust for life. Then this problem is big, if you can't find a wife, how can you give birth to a bunch of little mastiffs? As the saying goes, there are three unfilial pieties, and no queen is the big ......."

Speaking of which, perhaps even he himself realized that it was nonsense to say such a thing to a four-month-old puppy cub, so he stopped and swallowed his saliva.

At this time, Zhang Fei had already moved his face away in disgust, avoiding his gaze.

It rested its chin with its small thick hooves, shook its head, and its ears as big as a brown fan covered its face, revealing only a large black nose.

"Quite emotional, brother. He stood up and waved his hand helplessly.

Turning around and looking at the sky, the gray sky for several days made it impossible to accurately estimate the specific time at once.

The rain from outside the eaves came in obliquely, drenching half of the corners of his clothes. His cyan Xiuzhen robe had been rinsed for many years, and the corners of his clothes that had been wet by the rain were dark and obvious.

A drop of water, falling from the corner of the eaves.

A wonderful, crystal-clear line dripped onto his forehead, falling and condensing between his eyebrows.

He turned around thoughtfully, squatted back in front of Zhang Fei's body, stretched out his hand and gently lifted its ears, his eyes locked on it, "Don't be angry, the twenty catties of beef tendon meat promised to you before will be honored, believe me, aren't we short of money right now? Every time I go to the vegetable market and come back, it's like I've been looted......"

Speaking of this, he made a miserable and pitiful look, frowned, and the water that was originally condensed between his eyebrows and eyes flowed down the corners of his eyes, like tears shed when he was emotional.

This scene caught Zhang Fei's eyes, this psychic and emotional black guy, as if he had been infected, his nose twitched slightly.

"So there is no way, in order to save money, I have to grieve our two men to eat sweet potatoes at home for three days......" He paused, raised his hand and pointed to the cow bone hanging on the bamboo pole by the wall, "Life is so difficult, you can have such a delicious meal today to improve the food, you really should know how to cherish and be grateful, you know?"

Zhang Fei's gaze moved to the bone along the direction of his finger, and it was still swinging and shaking by the wind, and it was a little trance-like to see it, and it took a while before it came back to its senses. It remembered that the sweet potatoes had been stolen from the fields of the farmers in the neighboring villages at night, and that the bones had been begging the butcher with dead faces, and when it turned around, it gave him a look of contempt.

Is there a shameless guy like this in this world?

He often locked himself in his house for several days in a row, picking up a large pile of medicinal herbs from the outskirts of other sects' territories, and hurriedly refining elixirs according to a tattered book that seemed to be at the level of a stall.

The smoke of the furnace darkened his face, and by the time he grinned and showed his white teeth, those low-grade pills were baked.

He carefully picked up the pills one by one, put them into porcelain bottles, and plugged them into the corks. At the end, it is labeled with the words "Qi Gathering Pill", "Concentrating Pill", "Pulp Washing Pill" and so on.

Early the next morning, before dawn, I picked up these bottles and cans and rushed to the market to sell. The spirit stones that were earned were not yet hot, and they changed hands and exchanged them for a bunch of chicken ribs from those so-called authentic alchemy, authentic refining, and authentic exercises.

is so busy working back and forth, the spirit stones have not been saved, and the cultivation has not grown, and the days are getting more and more embarrassing.

He didn't feel anything bad about this kind of life.

But Zhang Fei felt more and more that he had been abused by him! For as long as he can remember, he has never eaten meat a few times. The days of eating vegetarian and eating sweet potatoes every day almost make it forget that he should be a wise and martial mastiff, not a grass dog in the field!

Thinking of this, Zhang Fei felt a breath in his abdomen, about to surge up. But when it reached the throat, it was swallowed back raw.

What's the use of looking at this angry and pitiful guy in front of you, growling or whimpering?

After all, it has been with this guy since it was sensible.

He said he had brought it back from an isolated island at sea on a night of thunder and lightning. At that time, it had not yet fully opened its eyes, its eyes were squinted, its ears were lying on its stomach, covered in a layer of mucus, and it was shivering beside a tuft of grass, and it looked like it had just given birth from its mother's womb.

"Poor little fellow, can't he have snuck out of the nest and got lost?" he thought at the time. But after looking around, they couldn't find any trace of the mother mastiff or mastiff's nest.

In desperation, he came to the conclusion that this was a little life that was born and abandoned!

So after exclaiming, "It turns out that beasts and humans will also abandon their own flesh and blood", he wrapped it in a robe and carried it home.

After that, he held Xiao Zhang Fei several times and took a bamboo raft to the sea to find his relatives. Not to mention that the female mastiff was not found, even the original island could not be found......

"Do you remember any big events today?" he took out a piece of jade slip from his arms as he spoke, and smiled evilly: "In the seventh round of the Professional League of the Eastern Division of the Xiuzhen Realm Keju Alliance, the two strongest teams: the Temple of Gods and Demons and Donghuangdao are about to start." ”

He held up the jade slip and injected a wisp of divine sense, and the information inside was opened, and at the top was a line of eye-catching big characters: "World Gambling Workshop Xiuzhen Realm Keju Alliance", and the number of games was listed below. He found the Temple of Gods and Demons and the Donghuangdao game, and then clicked on it with his divine sense, and a row of numbers appeared, which the jargon called the odds, which were set up by the gambling house for this game.

To put it simply, the higher the odds for a team, the less optimistic it is that it will win the game, and vice versa, the better the chance of winning. However, if you choose a side with high odds and it ends up winning the game, then you will get a higher return on your investment.

There has been a wise saying in the Keju world throughout the ages: "Ju is round!", which means that both strong and weak teams can win, and all outcomes are possible. The following is the relevant information of the game, including team introduction, player list, recent results, expert predictions, etc.

"Which team do you think I should buy?" he scratched his head in distress, "Judging from the odds offered by the world's gambling houses, it seems that they are more optimistic about the Temple of Gods and Demons, and in terms of record, the Temple of Gods and Demons has won all six games in the past six games, one more than Donghuangdao, which has had a draw." But Donghuangdao's strength is not weak, judging from the past battle records, the two sides are evenly divided, well, it's really nerve-wracking......"

Muttering to himself, he slowly turned his head to Zhang Fei, his eyes full of anticipation.

"Here we go again, bastard!" Zhang Fei wanted to pounce on him and bite him.

If there is anything wrong with this guy on the other side, it is the most disgusting to him, it is to count him as betting on "bowing"!

In addition to being used for daily cultivation, most of his spirit stones were dedicated to the world's gambling houses. thinks he knows this well and has no last resort, but every result always makes him stomp his feet and beat his chest, complaining and shouting!

It wasn't until a month ago, after losing gambling money again, that he learned from the pain and came to the conclusion that the constant loss was not all because of his poor gambling skills and impure algorithms, but because of bad luck.

So he wiped away his tears and snot and shut himself in the door. When he came out, there were three more bamboo cards in his hand, which were engraved with "up", "down", and "and", the upper means that the upper handicap (the side with low odds) wins, the "down" means that the lower handicap (the side with high odds) wins, and the "and" means that the two teams draw.

He spread out the three cards and put them in front of Zhang Fei, "Choose one! Come, choose one!" Zhang Fei was confused, didn't understand the situation, and looked at him with two cute black eyes. "Just choose the right one! If you get a meal, improve your diet! Beef--beef tendon meat--five catties! Never break your word!" So Zhang Fei, who was suspicious, slowly stretched his head forward and opened his mouth to one of the bamboo cards......

On the night of the result of the game, in the outer courtyard of this bamboo house, there was a madman who was shirtless and carried a wine jug, singing and dancing all night long!

When he came back from the market the next day, he brought back a few meat bones and put them in front of Zhang Fei, approached and stroked its head, "Follow my brother to do a good job in the future! Brother will let you eat and drink spicy food!" A smell of overnight wine, mixed with the rancid taste in the stomach, penetrated into Zhang Fei's nostrils, making it feel nauseous......

Since then, there have been three more similar situations. Zhang Fei couldn't understand why he always hit in the end by choosing at random? Even he began to wonder if he really had some unknown talent in this area.

Of course, that's not its main concern. Whenever it looked at the pile of bones in front of it, it always felt aggrieved. After four predictions, there should be 20 catties of beef tendon meat, but I haven't even seen a single meat clove until now.
