Chapter 4: Fifty-Four Star Artifacts (I)

"Bastard brother, you actually know that you are back, why did you go? You went to the three poisons to gamble again, didn't you?" As soon as the little girl came, she grabbed Zi Yanfan's ears.

"Ouch, light ...... Tap ......" Zi Yanfan grinned in pain, and said busily: "No, no." ”

"Hmph, no? My ears are calloused, go, come back with me to chop wood, and then eat. The little girl let go of her hand and glared at him unkindly.

"Go, go wow. Zi Yanfan nodded immediately, as if a chicken was pecking rice.

The little girl is his own sister, Zi Yanxue. He was just over thirteen years old this year, and he was dressed in coarse cloth. The appearance is medium to upper, although he was born poor, he also fell out of the water. Handsome little face, big eyes, and a scorpion tail that is fast to the calf, it is much better developed than girls of the same age. Just because the family is not good, it turns out that my brother can't count on it, and a lot of housework falls on her when her parents are working outside, she is more sensible than seventeen or eighteen-year-old girls, although she is naughty, but she can endure hardships and take care of everything in an orderly manner.

Zi Yanfan was especially touched by the fact that Zi Yanxue was very good to his brother, knowing that he was a bastard gambler who was scolded by others, and there was never less food and clothing to take care of, and she would remember it if she didn't come back after going out for a long time.

The reason for this is that, on the one hand, Zi Yanxue is sensible and obedient, and the relationship between brother and sister before the age of ten is quite good. On the one hand, the 'original brother' began to gamble after the age of thirteen, and he was attentive to her intentionally or unintentionally, and occasionally when he had no money to gamble, he also had to bring some paper flowers and sugar gourds to his sister...... Don't misunderstand it's a good intention, he is preparing in advance for the smooth sale of his sister in the future!!

But the kind-hearted sister didn't know, and said that although her brother was bad, she felt sorry for her, and she was also very moved, and she opposed her brother's attachment.

The sinister brother lost halfway, and he remembered to do it a few times, but he finally had some humanity and endured it. I just made up my mind today that I was disgusting, and I happened to bump into Ziyanfan's crossing, and this idea was completely ruined.

What a beautiful sister!

There was a vicious plan to sell her...... Looking at the little girl in front of him, he sighed in his heart, since I am here, then everything bad will disappear, Xue'er, you will have a real good brother in the future.

Zi Yanxue jumped and pulled Zi Yanfan past the entrance of the village, walked briskly to his home, and met many village uncles and aunts who were grinding or selling vegetables along the way, and some old people playing chess under the big trees.

"*** bastard boy, it's inhumane to gamble and steal chickens and touch dogs, isn't there anything left in the old pig's house the day before yesterday...... How did you get it now? With such a sister to take care of, I really don't know what kind of luck I stepped on. ”

"That's it, looking at the broken appearance of the sail bastard, he will definitely lose his whole body when he comes back so early today. ”

"If you want me to say that I don't want to give the loser food. I have such a son, I must be kicked out of the house, or I will be tied up and sent to Damengshan to feed the wolves, otherwise I will be embarrassed to go out to meet people. ”

......

Zi Yanfan smiled bitterly!

I really went all the way to scold all the way, the existence of the predecessor was simply a bully in the village, a cancer that could not be removed! These angry uncles and aunts almost smashed all the eggs and rotten vegetables in their hands...... The rats are stronger than me, and at least the rats can hide in the cracks.

The little girl opened her mouth to say something, but shook her head to stop.

She was also very disappointed in her brother's conduct from the bottom of her heart, and it was useless to persuade her too many times, and she didn't want to persuade anymore.

After walking for a long time, they arrived at their courtyard.

Their house is a simple burnt blue brick house, composed of a large and a small two connected rooms, there is a courtyard of about 50 square meters, the corner of the courtyard is planted with some flowers and trees that are not famous, the green and red are quite good-looking.

"I'm back. Ziyanxue pushed open the door.

"Quick, the girl comes back, go wash the rice and cook, and make a pot of big leaf tea and put it away, your father will come back soon after being busy in the field, so that he can drink it while it is cold." A middle-aged woman's voice came from the side room, as if she was cleaning up the house.

"Here we go. Zi Yanxue immediately agreed, and then pushed Zi Yanfan: "Don't want to be lazy, go quickly." ”

"Dry ...... What are you doing?" Zi Yanfan hadn't reacted yet.

"Chopping wood! over there!" Zi Yanxue's voice suddenly raised a few degrees.

"Oooh. Zi Yanfan nodded, relevant memories came to mind, and he hurried to the corner of the courtyard, where there was a semi-circular wooden pier with a diameter of one meter, and four or five bundles of firewood of different thicknesses were placed horizontally next to it.

Zi Yanxue felt slightly strange, this guy used to ask him to do something that was always delayed, or he didn't bother to move in order to eat, what's wrong with it now? She glanced slightly, and turned to the stove house to be busy cooking.

Zi Yanfan neatly picked up the firewood knife with his right hand, picked up a coarse firewood with his left hand and put it on the firewood pier, "Click, click, click" neatly chopped twice and cut it into three pieces.

I hesitated to say hello to my mother Dong Yun first, but I was afraid that my mother would be disgusted or frightened, so I temporarily suppressed my thoughts. If he is reborn for the first time, he must not be in a hurry, but he is different, he has gone through too many times, and it is not necessarily good to know that there are too many changes at one time to startle the old man, and many times it is necessary to adapt slowly.

A piece of firewood was not able to chop up, so Ziyanfan erected three firewood pillars and placed them on the wooden pier in a straight line.

"Click-"

A firewood knife was neatly swung down, and the firewood pillar was neatly split into six petals, and then he hugged it at least to the side and continued to take down a firewood......

The hatchet is not sharp, and there are some small curls, but he chops very vigorously and easily...... While chopping wood, he gradually adapted to the continued fusion of the two memories......

......

"Wow, I read that right. My brother is invincible today! The firewood that has been accumulated for three days has been chopped in half an hour. Zi Yanxue screamed in surprise.

Four or five bundles of coarse wood are split into pieces, and even the strongest man has to work for half a day!

Zi Yanfan just smiled, went to the water tank to scoop water and washed the sweat on his face, and then went back to the dining table to eat.

The dining table is very dilapidated, and the red paint has been worn out for many years. Because the ground was uneven, there was a stone chip under one table, which was still a little shaky. On the table, there are three bowls of simple but sufficient dishes, a bowl of tofu and clear soup. Looking around, except for a few commonly used farm tools, there is no decent furniture in the house.

The father and son Yankui came back from the field and were stunned when they saw the neat high firewood stacks in the courtyard, and they didn't ask anything. So the family gathered around the table for lunch, and the parents were very tired and tired from their work, and they were disheartened by the gambler's son, and they didn't have much to say. Zi Yanxue talked about the fun of this neighborhood, and talked about the interesting story of the market...... Then from time to time to pick up vegetables for his parents, maybe he saw that his brother seemed to have really changed sex, and today he specially sandwiched a chopstick green vegetables for him.

Regarding the feat of chopping firewood, Zi Yanxue still doesn't believe it, and is ready to ask her parents to go out to take a look after dinner.

Zi Yanfan didn't say a word, took a big bite of the bowl and ate the food, after eating, he picked up the shovel on the side and said to Zi Yankui: "Father, the field is heavy, I'll help." ”

The words fell, and the room was silent!

Quiet, quiet, quiet! You can hear a sewing needle falling on the ground!

The parents were stunned......

My sister froze......

My father's chopsticks stopped on the soup bowl, my mother's food came to my mouth and forgot to bite, and my sister forgot to swallow a mouthful of soup in her throat, and then "rumbled" and almost choked out......

Everyone stared at him like a monster.

XXXXX

Since this day, change! big change! super big change! super big change!

This is the evaluation of everyone who has seen Ziyanfan in Hedong Village!

Clothes and hair are no longer so sloppy and smelly, they are polite and polite when they speak and greet people, they are gentle and amiable when they see people, they are enthusiastic and helpful to others, and they no longer cause trouble everywhere......

The most important ...... He no longer goes to the gambling den to gamble for money, he honestly chops firewood at home every day, works diligently in the fields with his parents, and never slacks off from morning to night.

It can't be said that there is no gambling at all, on the fourth day of Zi Yanfan's rebirth in Hedong Village, a very interesting thing happened.

An event that later made the whole village of Hedong happy.

Zi Yanfan's former gambling friends Wang Si and Zhao Liu led several gambling friends in the village to call him, and they wanted to go to the 'Three Dogs' to bet on the size of the dice and the turtle.

Zi Yanfan hesitated at that time.

Then he said, "Don't go there, I have a new way of betting, do you want to try playing two?"

Wang Si, Zhao Liu, and the gamblers looked at each other, and nodded excitedly at the same time.

To be honest, these gamblers were tired of gambling on the size of the dice bet and the roulette pointer before, and they were all tired of betting on cockfights and crickets...... And the 'race turtle' I don't know which bastard came back from the village two years ago, and it was lively for a while when he just came back, but now he is tired of playing crookedly and is not in a good mood.

In fact, people who are addicted to gambling do not necessarily lack money to spend, only a very small number of poor people who eat radish and wild vegetables every day are still desperately gambling, wanting to make money and turn over to become an uncle... After all, there are not many bastards to the level of Zi Yanfan's predecessor. The so-called gambling, in fact, most of the reason is because of the emptiness of the heart, because the favorite cannot be recognized by relatives, and there is nowhere to vent the frustration, so some kind of exciting game is needed to pass the emptiness.

So as soon as Zi Yanfan said that there was a new way to play, several gamblers happily immediately surrounded his yard.

Zi Yanfan began to suffer...... Before the parents could speak, the angry Xue'er picked up a big broom and smashed him! No matter how Zi Yanfan explained, Xue'er thought that the bad brother's old habit was rekindled, and he wanted to fool around, and he would turn his home into a casino with a gambler......

Zi Yanfan took his sister at least three brooms, and he didn't know how much he swore to his family, it was definitely not what they imagined, and let them see it with their own eyes......

Because the performance was very good a few days ago, I was finally persuaded after that. Zi Yanfan took ten pieces of the hard soles of the palm leaves used in Dong Yunna's soles, then spread two layers of white paper on the front and back of the paste, paved them, and cut out regular long pieces with scissors, about half the size of a palm.

A total of fifty-four were cut.

Then use charcoal to draw numbers and marks on each one-sided sheet. One ghost each, then from A to 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, J, Q, K, and then divided into four categories, one for spades, hearts, clubs, and diamonds.

The color of spades and plum blossoms is barely blackened with charcoal, and the hearts and squares are picked out and painted red with the rouge powder that my mother has not used for a long time.

That's right, it's to play poker on Earth in the previous life.

"What about this fifty-four-star artifact...... It was passed to me by a distant master on a thunderous night, because it was extremely high-end, and it was once widely spread in the fairy world. I give it for your pleasure. ”

Zi Yanfan stacked five red heart cards together like a fan, looking like a master outside the world, "Hehe, its gameplay is ever-changing, exciting and exciting, don't look at this pile of paper shells, it is enough to withstand all your gambling room plays." ”

The gamblers stared at him suspiciously, as if they believed it, as if they didn't believe it.

"I'll teach you the simplest one first, commonly known as 'fighting the landlord', and you'll know when you learn it. ”

......

Half an hour later.

"One...... A pair of Qs"

"Over!"

"I press, a pair of A"

"Well, I can't afford it. ”

"Haha, Lao Tzu has a bomb, four 7, Peng-"

......

The rules for fighting landlords are simple.

Zi Yanfan didn't talk about the trouble of doubling the bomb at first, but simply talked about how to rob the landlord and the size rules, and then used a pair of ghosts, four of a kind, straights, etc. as examples to compare the size, and then put a few special airplane cards and so on...... And so on.

These gamblers can't do anything else, they are proficient in everything they play, almost Ziyanfan has just finished speaking, you interject every word, and the rules will be understood in twenty minutes.

Zi Yanfan set chips for each person, using the smallest unit of 'copper coins', in order not to let each person lose too much at a time and lose the opportunity. Gambling with a copper plate that can only buy half a steamed bun can be played leisurely for a long time.

Then the cards were shuffled and dealt three decks of cards, leaving three in the middle and waiting for the owner to grab.

One dug up the landlord, and the other two tried to join forces against him.

So when gambling, for the first time in Hedong Village, there were two gamblers who could work together, and they racked their brains to cooperate with their teammates in order to win the 'landlord', and when they won, they rejoiced together, and when they lost, they were unlucky together, and they both envied the local owner.

But not everyone can be a landlord, and they have to be robbed.

You have to follow the rules when you grab it... When the loser grabbed the landlord, he found that the landlord was not so easy to be, and while he wanted to make a lot of money, the other two joined forces to attack him... You have to find a way to suppress it desperately......

Interesting!

After only three handfuls, the five gamblers who came to the courtyard were excited to make a fuss, and they grabbed the cards when they saw them, and they all asked for the landlord to earn copper coins from two foreign countries, and the loser was eager to use his superb card skills to help his friends defeat the hateful landlord......
