On this day, Yao Xuebin didn't know what medicine he had taken wrong, and he was suddenly very enthusiastic about Xu Ye, and dragged him to the best restaurant in town for a big meal:

After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, Yao Xuebin said to Xu Ye with a flattering face: "Xiao Liu, oh no, Brother Liu!

"What's the matter, just say it," Xu Ye rolled his eyes: "Nothing to do, either a traitor or a thief, it's you." ”

"Hey, what can I do, Brother Liu, didn't you save my life the day you first came, brother, I have never had a chance to repay you well, so I specially invited Brother Liu to eat this meal today to show my gratitude." ”

"Oh, really have nothing to ask me for, don't you want me to borrow money?" Xu Ye wondered, and said in his heart, could it be that his uncle had changed his temper in advance and decided to change his mind and become a new person?

"Brother Liu, do you see what kind of person you think of me, am I, Yao Xuebin, the kind of person who borrows money with one mouth? But when it comes to money, I do know that there is a particularly interesting place in this town, and I will take you to play after eating later?"

Xu Ye suddenly realized that the "particularly interesting place" in Yao Xuebin's mouth was a casino, and his uncle was going to pull himself on the thief ship!

However, Yao Xuebin is usually stupid, Xu Ye doesn't believe that he will have such a scheming, eighty percent of the gambling house behind him has given him any benefits, or what has threatened him.

However, in line with the idea of not entering the tiger's den and getting the tiger, Xu Ye still agreed to his uncle's proposal: "Okay, since you said it was interesting, then let's go and see it in the afternoon." ”

Yao Xuebin saw that Xu Ye agreed so simply, and immediately raised his eyebrows: "Refreshing! Brother Liu is really a cheerful person, come, drink and drink, brother, I will do it first as respect······

The meal lasted until about three o'clock in the afternoon, and Yao Xuebin, who was half drunk, pretended to be mysterious, and took Xu Ye to toss around left and right for a long time, and finally came to the door of a grain store in the east of the town.

"This is it. ”

Yao Xuebin's eyes stared directly at this grain store, and there was a deep longing in his eyes, as if a person who was dying of thirst in the desert suddenly saw a pool of clear spring water.

"Grain store?"

Xu Ye pretended to be puzzled on his face, but he already understood seven or eight points in his heart: the so-called grain store is actually a gimmick, and this must be a gambling house dressed in the garb of a grain store!

"Hehe, the grain store is just a façade, let's go, let's go in and play." With that, Yao Xuebin picked up Xu Ye and walked to the store.

This shop is located in one of the most inconspicuous corners of the market in the east of the town, the door looks very dilapidated, after entering, the layout of the store is also surprisingly simple, except for a few bags of moldy rice noodles, there are no other objects, I don't know what is sticking to the ground, slimy pickles, a few fat mice are blatantly scurrying around in the corner, and even demonstratively showing their tiny fangs at Xu Ye.

At the counter, a thin guy like a ghost was lying there, and when he heard someone coming in, he glanced up half-deadly, and after seeing that it was Yao Xuebin, he slowly closed his eyes and fell back into the distance.

Yao Xuebin didn't stay in the store for long, and directly pulled Xu Ye through a small door behind the guy. Behind the small door is a dark and narrow walkway, through the aisle, and then out of another small door, the space suddenly opens up:

It was a very lively hall, filled with all kinds of sounds and smells, and a few greasy screens divided the hall into different areas: pai gow, poker, dice······ Different people gather in different areas and do the same stupid things in different ways.

"How's that, it's interesting, come, play first, I'll ······ the first two"

At this moment, Yao Xuebin's soul had long been hooked, he couldn't wait to pull Xu Ye to buy chips, so he hurriedly chose a gambling table and couldn't wait to join in······

That afternoon, Yao Xuebin had a very good time, not only Xu Ye won a lot of money, but even he followed the times and made a small profit.

That night, Xu Ye invited Yao Xuebin to drink, and once again poured him unconscious, under Xu Ye's questioning, Yao Xuebin "drunk and spit out the truth", and explained the ins and outs of the matter clearly:

It turned out that this gambling house was what he called the "grain and oil store", and it was also the only gambling house in the town. Not only is there a gambling business, but it also gives usury to gamblers.

Yao Xuebin owed a lot of money in the "grain and oil store" because of gambling, and the day he met Xu Ye happened to be the day he repaid the interest every month, but Yao Xuebin was really itchy that day, and as a result, he lost all the money used to repay the interest.

The gambling house did not receive interest, so it was naturally very angry, so it sent thugs, that is, the three strong men, to chop off Yao Xuebin's two fingers as a lesson.

Originally, Yao Xuebin thought that he must be in a catastrophe today, but he killed a trip to bite the gold halfway, and the three strong men who chased him from the gambling house were all solved by Xu Ye alone, and the boss of the "grain and oil store" was afraid of Xu Ye's skills, so he did not pursue Yao Xuebin's arrears of interest for the time being.

However, just yesterday, the people from the "grain and oil store" found Yao Xuebin and told him that if he could bring Xu Ye to the store to gamble, his interest could be extended for another month, otherwise he would chop off one of his hands now! Under the "coercion" and "temptation" of the other party, Yao Xuebin had no choice but to obediently comply.

"Is it usury? I see, I'm afraid this is the so-called 'trouble'. ”

Xu Ye nodded thoughtfully, and probably guessed what would happen later:

Uncle because of gambling and huge debts, so the casino people found the grandfather's home, grandfather in order to keep his son, had to spend all his savings to pay off the debt, as a result of the mother also missed the university, the uncle who has always loved his mother finally realized his mistake, since then his personality has changed greatly, no longer gambling, reform.

In fact, the most pitiful thing is my grandfather, who went bankrupt twice in his life because of gambling, and has since become depressed. Frustrated, my grandfather left his hometown with his whole family and came to the north to start over······

In this case, as long as Yao Xuebin is killed, won't all the problems be solved?

But Yao Xuebin is Xu Ye's uncle, can his uncle die? Of course not!

Then, I had to ask someone else to die for my uncle······

For the next period of time, Xu Ye would go to the "grain and oil store" every day to gamble a few times, but every time he lost a little money, he would immediately stop, everyone in the gambling house despised him, saying that he was a coward and a coward, Xu Ye was indifferent, anyway, he didn't really come to gamble, is it possible that he has to lose until he takes off his pants to give up?

As for winning, don't even think about it, there are so many cats in the casino that you can't count them, and only fools like my former grandfather and current uncle will believe that the casino is fair and innocent, and believe that as long as you are lucky, you can win a lot of money.

As Xu Ye's visits to the "grain and oil store" increased day by day, the structure of the entire gambling house was clearly understood by him:

The "grain and oil store" gambling house is probably composed of three parts: the outermost one is the small grain store, and there is only one guy who is about to run his last breath in the grain store, so there is no need to worry.

The core part is the hall of the gambling house, in addition to the normal exit to the grain store, there is also an emergency exit, but this emergency exit is locked by a large lock all the year round, and the key is kept in the hands of the hall steward.

In addition, there are also seven or eight big men in the hall as buddies and thugs, and these people are sitting in the gambling house, and basically no one dares to make trouble easily in the "grain and oil store".

The third part of the gambling house is a small hall that is half-embedded and half-separated from the hall, which is where the owner of the gambling house usually rests, and there are always two thugs at the entrance who take turns to guard, ordinary people don't want to go in at all, as for whether there are other exits to the outside in the small hall, Xu Ye does not know.

The days passed, and finally, Xu Ye ushered in his penultimate day on Earth.

That afternoon, Xu Ye found Yao Xuebin and said that he had made a lot of money recently, and he planned to invite him to the "grain and oil store" tonight to gamble happily.

In order to repay his debts, Yao Xuebin has been helping at the dock recently, and his hands have long been itching, and as soon as he heard that Xu Ye was going to invite him to gamble, he jumped and agreed.

In the evening, Yao Xuebin urged repeatedly, but Xu Ye did not move, and he had to wait until Yao Sumei came back and helped her finish her math before leaving.

Yao Xuebin was anxious to scold his mother, but he didn't dare to complain, for fear that Xu Ye would not invite him if he was unhappy.

In fact, Xu Ye just wanted to see his mother for the last time.

That night, Xu Ye carried his canvas bag and slipped out of the yard with Yao Xuebin, and the two came to the "grain and oil store" in a hurry, Xu Ye took out the last money on his body, bought all the chips, and let Yao Xuebin gamble casually. Yao Xuebin's eyes lit up excitedly, grabbed a handful of chips and threw himself next to the table, starting the first carnival of the night.

Due to the closed environment of the gambling house and the lack of ventilation equipment, more than 100 people gathered together to shout and make a fuss, and the temperature would inevitably be a little high, Yao Xuebin gambled and screamed, only to feel that his mouth was dry, and his throat and eyes seemed to be about to collapse out of sparks, but fortunately, Xu Ye handed over a can of beer very intimately.

Yao Xuebin took the beer, threw a grateful look at Xu Ye, then raised his head and poured it down, and after drinking it in one go, he was refreshed!

Casually wiping a handful of foam from the corners of his mouth, Yao Xuebin continued his carnival night.

However, it didn't take long for Yao Xuebin to gradually find that his head was getting more and more dizzy, and gradually, the chips on the table changed from one pile to two piles, and two piles to four piles······ Eventually, he couldn't hold it anymore and fell headlong on the table.

"Alas, it's really useless, this is drunk!" Xu Ye sighed and dragged Yao Xuebin off the gambling table.

Everyone here was partying, and no one noticed that Yao Xuebin was drunk at the gambling table. Of course, no one noticed that after Xu Ye opened the beer, he first poured a whole packet of sweat medicine into it (the sweat medicine was bought in the casino), and then handed it to Yao Xuebin after stirring it evenly.

Dragging his unconscious uncle, Xu Ye came to the corner of the casino, took out the rope that had been prepared, tied him up and stuffed him into the cleaning cabinet······

On the south side of the gambling hall, there is a very elaborately decorated door.

The regulars of the "grain and oil store" know that behind this gate is the private territory of the owner of the "grain and oil store", and two well-trained men take turns guarding both sides of the gate day and night, and only the hall manager is qualified to enter to meet the boss.

At this moment, these two big men are still loyally guarding the door of the small hall, but no one expected that some ill-intentioned guy has used the void ability to sneak through the wall into their boss's room!

The owner of the "grain and oil store" is a fat man of more than 200 pounds, and at this time, this fat man is sitting behind the boss's desk, bowing his head and playing with a string of exquisite jade pendants.

Suddenly, the fat boss inexplicably felt a chill rising from his back, and suddenly he was frightened, and when he looked up, everything was normal in the house.

"Why did you suddenly feel weak? What a hell of a thing!"

The fat boss frowned and muttered, reaching out for the teacup, intending to take a sip of hot tea to suppress the shock, but in the next second, his hand froze in mid-air!

Through the reflection of the teacup, the fat boss was horrified to see a figure standing behind him, with three long claws in his right hand raised high above his head, as if it could fall at any time!

When did he come in, how did he get in, what did he want to do?

Cold sweat broke out on the fat boss's forehead, and in just a few seconds, a lot of content floated through his mind, and finally, a legend about the wolf was turned out of his memory:

When you're walking alone at night, if something suddenly hits your shoulder from behind, don't look back! It's a wolf's claws, and it will bite your throat the moment you turn back!

In the past, the fat boss always felt that this legend was nonsense, if you didn't look back, it would be difficult for the wolf behind you to let you go?

But now, he finally understands that in that case, people will eventually turn back, even if they know that they will die, they can't help but look back.

Time passed quietly, and the pins were quietly falling in the small hall!

One-minute, two-minute, three-minute······ Xu Ye and the fat boss were motionless like two statues, and the two of them were consumed like this.

Finally, ten minutes passed, and the fat boss couldn't eat anymore to think, and under the shadow of death, he completely collapsed! He wanted to look back, even if it was death, he had to look back at what was standing behind him!

With a bite of his teeth and a horizontal heart, the fat boss turned back suddenly, but only saw three silver lights flashing.

With a "pop", the string of exquisite jade pendants fell to the ground and shattered, splashing a large area of emerald green and bright red!
