Volume 3: Tempered into Steel Chapter 7: The Candle Shadow Flickering

Zhu Qizhen looked at each other with a smile, until the thin monkey felt uncomfortable and moved away, allowing Chao'er to block him.

"What's that, if the two guys don't play, forget it, goodbye!" After the thin monkey finished speaking, he quickly pulled Chao'er back to the gambling table.

Zhu Qizhen and Fan Zhong glanced at each other and quickly left the casino, because the person they were looking for had already left here.

Both of them were not good-looking, and Zhu Qizhen complained a few words from time to time with his dissatisfaction with Fan Zhong.

Fan Zhong's face was embarrassed, as if he had been stripped of his clothes, and he left this luxurious casino under the eyes of a group of thugs.

After going out, Zhu Qizhen said loudly: "You just wait to go home and be dismissed by my father!" ”

Fan Zhong said with a crying voice: "Young master, can you tell the master, my whole family depends on this job to eat!" ”

Zhu Qizhen ignored Fan Zhong, and hurried in the direction of the man by himself, Fan Zhong hung behind, and didn't dare to get too close, begging Zhu Qizhen to give him another chance as he walked.

A few men at the door who watched this scene couldn't help laughing, there are similar scenes at the door of the casino every day, and the people who lost money are full of ugliness here. As for the person who said that he had won money, he had only seen the boss once.

Yijing left the thug's sight in the end, Fan Zhong originally wanted Zhu Qizhen to go back first, the tracking work was too dangerous, and the emperor couldn't take risks. But Zhu Qizhen is unwilling, the general experience of spy war movies is something that every man is eager to try.

Gamblers in the casino are still unbridled with their greed, even if they lose, and they are even more eager to win.

Chao'er is like this, his eyes are hungry enough, he looks at the gambling table, and clenches his fists hard from time to time.

Whenever the result on the table is what he wants, he will cheer with the person who has won, as if he is also a part of it.

"How's it going? Borrow some more to play! This time it's a sure win! I'm going to borrow money now! The thin monkey spoke, but did not move at his feet.

Ever since he had lost the borrowed money, Skinny Monkey had persuaded him many times, and every time he saw someone else winning, he couldn't help but want to try again.

In case of! What if you win? Win back what you have lost before. Your own wheat seeds, those won fields, as long as you win one hand, only one hand!

But every time the thin monkey persuaded him, he would also think: what if he loses again? Consistent money or even two money, even if he goes home and is beaten, the family can still take it out, but if he plays again, it may not only be something that can be solved by being beaten, he shivered inexplicably, and didn't dare to think about it anymore.

The thin monkey was anxious to watch on the side, and since he pulled Chao'er out to play, he knew that the other party's family could dig out again. But today it seems that she is too strong, and Chao'er is afraid of losing, but there is not much time left for herself......

"Monkey!"

Just when the thin monkey's heart was in turmoil, suddenly a heavenly sound came, and the thin monkey was happy in his heart, and a smile rippled on his face.

"Chao'er, go! If you do it again, I won't believe it, and I'll just memorize the idea today! The thin monkey pulled Chao'er and said.

Chao'er also cooperated with the thin monkey, but his direction was outside the door, and after meeting the thin monkey's gaze, Chao'er shook his head at his hair.

"Skinny monkey, I'll go home and confess to my father, you can go back too!"

Chao's expression had an indescribable firmness, which made the thin monkey panic, he swallowed stiffly, and then squeezed out a smile that was even uglier than crying.

"Chao'er, if you go back now, your father won't beat you to death? Otherwise, I'll borrow money for you to play, and when the time comes, it's mine if you lose, and yours if you win, how about it? Good brother, I can't watch you go home and get boarded! "The thin monkey said righteous words.

Chao'er still shook her head firmly, still walking towards the door.

He turned back to the thin monkey and said, "I thought about it, people can be wrong for a while, but they can't be wrong forever, and if I am wrong, I have to bear the corresponding consequences for this matter." Skinny Monkey, don't play either, you can't win here! ”

But these words fell on the ears of the thin monkey, and he seemed to have been slapped hard, and his face became red and distorted.

The skinny monkey screamed hysterically, "Fuck you! If you don't pretend to be an uncle in front of your grandfather and say anything unlucky, you won't be able to win, you won't be able to win for the rest of your life, you will be a poor life! Stinky stupid! ”

But the man had already gone out of the gate, and in this twisted world, there was only a noise left outside.

"Cheap bones! Let's go, go and be beaten by your father, and be scolded by your mother-in-law that you are a waste, get out! There was even a hint of jealousy in his tone.

Naturally, no one cares about the madness of another gambler, and all those who are noisy look at it impatiently, and then concentrate on the table in front of him.

But there is another type of person in the casino, a handpan iron walnut, a thumb with a golden wrench, a huge gold necklace hanging around his neck, and a middle-aged man who is long and fat and walks behind the thin monkey.

The thick palm snapped on the thin monkey's shoulder, and he was about to kneel on the ground as soon as he bent his knee.

Cold sweat fell on the thin monkey's face, he twisted his head back stiffly, and shouted tremblingly: "Fifth Master Pan!" ”

"Today is the last day, do you remember? It's been half a month, and this kid hasn't lost enough for your interest, do you still have friends? ”

The thin monkey opened his mouth to answer, but Pan Wuye didn't give him a chance.

"Okay, don't struggle, you can have any rich friends, go and ask for food. Take! ”

"Fifth Master Pan, Fifth Master! If you give me another chance, I will bring someone over for you, and I will guarantee that I will pay back the money with interest! Fifth Master! Don't, don't, please, Fifth Master! Grandfather! Grandfather! Will you let me go? I promise to make you a cow and a horse, and you can let me do anything! Pan Five! I'll grass your grandma! ”

"Let him shut his mouth for me." Pan Wuye gave an order, and the thin monkey didn't make any sound in his mouth, and pulled him into the backyard of the gambling house.

When Chao'er arrived home in a daze, it was already dark, and his daughter-in-law was waiting at the door, still recognizing her man at a glance from a distance.

"Dad, hurry up, hurry. The food is almost cold, dad and they haven't eaten yet, and the whole family is waiting for you. Hey, didn't you buy the seeds? The two approached, and the daughter-in-law realized that her man had not taken anything.

Chao'er didn't speak from beginning to end, even if his son came up to call Daddy, he walked straight to the hall and knelt in front of his father.

The daughter-in-law was frightened and pulled her son to stand aside helplessly.

The father just glanced at it to know the general idea, and didn't ask in a hurry, but said, "You mothers go to the kitchen for a while." ”

When everyone was gone, the father asked, "Say, what's going on." ”

Chao'er knelt there and told what he had done, but the storm he thought had not come, and although his father's wheezing voice gradually became heavier, he didn't even interject a word.

Quietly waiting for him to finish, he silently got up and walked to the bedside, where there was a mahogany box, which was his mother's dowry, and the room was quiet.

A moment later, with a coughing sound, the dim candlelight reflected a slightly rickety figure, which coincided with Chao'er's shadow.

"Take it, close the tent!" Father's majestic voice rang out.

Chao'er's tears couldn't stop pouring out of his eyes, and his suppressed whimper sounded in the room.

The lights of thousands of homes in the night are soft and warm
