Chapter 194: Gambling?
Wei Pu shook his head,
"I don't quite understand what it means to cross? I asked the Third Young Master, and he told me that he suddenly came to this plane from another time and space. I know that the Third Young Master is not from this world, but from another world. He came to this time with knowledge and ideas that he had never seen before. Li Jingan felt incredible, and said in her heart: "Is there a world besides this time?" If there is another world, where are they? He scratched his head and asked, "Was there really no such thing as salt in the previous world?" Wei Pu shook his head and said, "It's not that there isn't, but it's not so good." I used to live in poverty. Of course, you don't understand what I say, but it doesn't matter, you probably understand what it means. Anyway, it's the same as the country world, I don't understand some of the practices of people in the city. Li Jing'an nodded, indicating that she understood.
Wei Pu paused and continued: When I went downstairs, I found that all the gamblers around me were around a table in the middle, and on the opposite side of that table, there was a middle-aged man in a gray robe.
The man was emaciated, his face haggard, and his cloudy eyes stared at the dice cup on the table, as if he could see through it.
A small guy next to him said to Huo Conghan: "The boss is him, and since he entered the door, he has won 70,000 taels." Huo Conghan frowned and asked, "Did he come out of the old man?" The little guy shook his head,
"No, the guys in the workshop have been staring at him, and they haven't let him touch the table and dice, it's unlikely that he will cheat, unless he is ......" The little guy didn't say the second half of the sentence, but Huo Conghan already understood what he meant.
Unless the person is a practitioner and can see the number of points in the dice cup. If you are a practitioner, then it is troublesome.
If you are angry, you will get into trouble. It's like Long Zhan, because he provoked someone he shouldn't have provoked, he not only killed his parents, but also made his cultivation abolished and reduced to a wasted person.
Huo Conghan didn't dare to act rashly, even if her father was the boss of the Sucheng HEI Gang, he didn't dare to go against the immortals.
"Open, four, five, six, big, the player wins!" As the little guy who threw the dice sang and shouted, Huo Conghan suddenly raised his head and lost another 70,000 taels.
If she does this again, her gambling house can basically be declared bankrupt. Thinking of this, she frowned, anxious, and didn't know what to do.
At this time, Long Zhan suddenly spoke: "Or, let me try?" Huo Conghan turned his head to look at him, not understanding why he jumped out and said this at this time.
The other party seems to be able to see through the points of the dice cup, isn't it the same when you go up? She was about to open her mouth to refuse, but Long Zhan didn't wait for her to reply, and directly pulled the previous person away, and the person looked at Huo Conghan.
Huo Conghan thought that there was nothing to do now, both horizontal and vertical were dead, so he might as well see what the hell Long Zhan was going to do, nodded and motioned for the man to retreat.
Long Zhan took the position, smiled at the middle-aged man and asked, "Change someone, no problem, right?" When everyone saw that it was the third young master, they all frowned, thinking to themselves, why is this guy not dead?
Why is it here again? Some muttered quietly, puzzled. The middle-aged man raised his head, his eyelids drooped, and his bloodshot eyes stared at Long Zhan for a moment, and he was also a little surprised, but in the end he grinned,
"Everything." Long Zhan smiled, then took a deep breath and shook the dice cup. He held the dice cup on his chest and shook it beside him, and he held it above his head...... As he shook, everyone's eyes also shook with the shaking of the dice cup, and they all held their breath to see if this middle-aged man could still kill in all directions.
Wow~ Suddenly, Long Zhan's palm loosened, and all the dice in his hand fell to the ground, causing a group of people to frown.
"Sorry, it's the first time I've played this." Long Zhan hurriedly squatted down to pick up the dice. Many people next to him muttered, saying in their hearts what are you doing, why can't you even hold a dice cup steadily?
Sha Biao also said: "Boss, how can you let him go up, you see him like that, he has to let us lose." Huo Conghan also frowned, thinking to himself what this dragon war is doing, how can he shake the dice and still shake it to the ground.
But she didn't say it, she just urged Long Zhan and said, "Don't rub it in, if you can't find it, change it again." ”
"No, I found it." Long Zhan picked up the dice from the ground, then stretched out his palm for everyone to take a look at, and then quickly put it into the dice cup.
After putting it in the cup, he just shook it lightly, and then buckled it on the table.
"Place your bet."
"That's it?" Everyone is very uncomfortable with his shaking method, generally not to shake a lot to be like words, some masters have to play a few tricks, by the way to perform a difficult talent, what do you mean by this shake?
But they didn't say anything, after all, the rules didn't say anything, just shake it. The man on the other side was stunned for a moment when he heard Long Zhan shouting at him to bet, obviously he didn't expect this to be the case.
He glanced at the dice cup opposite, looked at the silver in his hand, thought for a while, and then took out a thousand taels and threw it out, betting big.
When the crowd saw him placing his bets, they all looked at him in amazement. Even the little guy from before was staring at him, at the same time
"Huh", quite surprised. Huo Conghan didn't understand what the situation was, and asked, "What's wrong?" The little guy explained: "Before, this man had placed all his bets, and they were very fast, with little hesitation. But this time he was very hesitant to bet, and he only bet 1,000 taels, not all bets. Huo Conghan thought about it for a while, as if this was the case, the other party bet 70,000 taels at once, and pushed all the money out.
But this time, why did he only bet 1,000 taels? Huo Conghan's eyes lit up and he understood: "He wasn't sure, so he only dared to bet one thousand taels." ”
"Buy and leave." Long Zhan sang and shouted, and then slowly opened the dice cup,
"Three, five, six, big. The player wins. ”
"Boss, lost again." Sha Biao was a little impatient, and the little guy next to him said, "Do you want to replace him?" Huo Conghan shook his head,
"No, you don't." Although he still lost this one, Huo Conghan knew that it was just that person's luck, so it didn't matter if he lost, and it was only one thousand taels.
Sha Biao and Cui Guangyu looked at each other, puzzled by the boss's decision, and didn't know why the dragon battle lost, but the boss still didn't replace him.
Long Zhan pushed out a thousand taels and laughed contemptuously,
"Congratulations, we're here again." The middle-aged man frowned slightly. Long Zhan covered the dice cup, then shook it lightly, then stretched out his hand and said, "Please." The man thought for a while, and was about to push out a thousand taels again, but Long Zhan laughed and clasped one hand on the dice cup.
"Yes, it's good to bet on a thousand taels, bet, how can there be nine out of ten, it's nothing to lose once or twice, it's only a thousand taels." The man laughed too,
"You don't have to provoke me, now that I'm invincible, you can't win against me." Long Zhan shook his head,
"No, I'm the one who is invincible. When you lose your money, it's gone, because that's your money. And if I lose, I don't have anything to lose, because I'm losing money from the casino. So whether you win or lose, it doesn't matter to me, and you may be penniless. In other words, from the moment I came on the court, you were already doomed to lose. It's actually nothing, after all, it's not a shame to lose to me. Your best outcome is to walk away with the money you've won now, so that you might lose decently. The man picked his eyelids, and then pushed out all the money in front of him.
"Decent? I don't need to. I'm either going to lose to the end, or I'm going to climb to the top! ”
"All-in!" Everyone held their breath. Huo Conghan was also a little nervous, this gambling house was an industry that his father gave her experience, if she lost, then she would have to marry according to her father's wishes, like an ordinary woman, at home with her husband and children, and only promise to live her life.
That's not the life she wants, what she wants is to be happy and dominate the world. She couldn't help but look at Long Zhan, hoping that Long Zhan could help her win.
"Open!"
"Open!" …… Everyone shouted in unison, wanting to see whose hand the deer died. Long Zhan's eyes stared at the man in front of him, pressed one hand on the dice cup, and then slowly unveiled the dice cup amid the chorus of everyone.
Everyone hurriedly approached to look, and suddenly one of them shouted: "It's two, four, six, big!" When the voice was heard, the people immediately looked at the silver that the man had pledged, and behold, there was a writing under it
The word "small".
"He bet small, he lost!" Sha Biao turned his head to Huo Conghan and said excitedly.
"What? Did he lose? Huo Conghan hurriedly squeezed over to look, and sure enough, he saw that the person was betting on Xiao, and couldn't help but shout happily: "We won, we won......" Long Zhan couldn't help laughing when he saw her like this, maybe it was at this moment that he thought of this gambling shop owner and a girl.
Turned his head and looked at the man in front of him again, and said, "You won three bets, why don't you dare to continue to bet big?" Are you scared? The man didn't say anything, originally he wanted to continue to bet on the big bet, but the dragon battle made him a little unpredictable, and the sudden change made him lose so much confidence that he didn't dare to come nonsense.
After thinking about it carefully for a long time, I thought that the first few were all big, and this one should not be big, so I bet on the small, who knows...... The man wrapped his clothes, didn't say anything, turned around and left, and didn't forget to glare at Long Zhan fiercely before leaving.
Long Zhan looked at the departing back and fell into deep thought,
"I don't know where the master is, he actually thinks of making money in the gambling house by cultivating for himself."
"Long Zhan, follow me upstairs, I have something to say." Huo Conghan said to Long Zhan and walked upstairs quickly.
Long Zhan didn't grind, put down the dice cup, but after pulling out the dice inside, he left quickly. The people downstairs looked at Long Zhan who went up, and they all looked puzzled, why did the third young master get mixed up with Miss Huo?
When he went upstairs and saw Huo Conghan standing with his hands in his hands, Long Zhan asked with a smile, "What does Boss Huo want to say?" Huo Conghan turned around, a pair of wonderful eyes fell on his face, and slowly asked, "How did you do it?" She couldn't understand why the person who could guess the dice before couldn't guess when the dragon battle was over.
Long Zhan didn't hide it, and stretched out his right hand, and there were three dice in it.
"Boss Huo will see for himself." Huo Conghan stared at the three dice and found that the dice were still the dice in his gambling house, but several sides of the dice were a little different, and there was more dust on those points.
"This ......," Long Zhan explained, "that person should be a cultivator, with excellent hearing, and be able to hear the number of dice. After all, each side of these dice is different, and therefore the sound of the collision on the table is also different. I covered each side of these dice with dust so that their sound would be greatly reduced, and the differences in them would be cut out. In addition, to be on the safe side, I deliberately reduced my movements when shaking the dice, and threw some small pebbles into the dice cup to add a lot of noise. In this way, no matter how good his ears are, it is impossible for him to hear. ”
"I see." Huo Conghan nodded, no wonder Long Zhan wanted to drop the dice to the ground at that time, it turned out to be to pick up stones and cover the dice with dust.
She asked, "Then what if you didn't work this method at that time, how would you solve it?" Long Zhan smiled: "This method can't be impossible, unless he is a master of more than three realms." If it is a master above the Three Realms, then what we do is superfluous, and he just gives what he wants. "The Three Realms are called the Xiuyuan Realm, and among the mortals in the world, the Xiuyuan Realm is already the existence of the top masters, and above this realm is the Jindan Realm.
And the Jindan Realm is also known as the Little Immortal Realm, which is the most important realm that distinguishes it from ordinary people.
Whether you can live forever or become an immortal depends on whether you can form a golden pill. In response to that sentence,
"Forming a Jindan guest is my generation." If such a person comes to gamble for money, then it is in vain, because the methods of the laity cannot escape the eyes of the immortals.
Huo Conghan understood this truth and no longer dwelled on this. Just a moment of silence and then asked: "With your skills and means, you can break out of the world by doing something different, why bother with me?" Long Zhan saw that Huo Conghan had said this, and knew that Huo Conghan was already interested in himself, otherwise he wouldn't have asked so.
He paused and said, "I would like to do it myself, but my reputation is too bad, and I have offended too many people before, I'm afraid they don't want to see me rise." "That's the truth, he's infamous now, he's a waste, and if he does it alone, he's bound to suffer a lot of repression.
But it's different with people, there are tall people in the way, and there is a buffer to some extent, so that they will not be killed directly.
Huo Conghan said: "So, you want to pull me as a shield?" Long Zhan said: "Wrong, I want to help you." Huo Conghan frowned and thought, Long Zhan didn't urge her, sat on the chair next to him, and saw that those flavor dishes and mutton were still there, so he directly picked up the mutton and ate it with relish.
He was so hungry that he had eaten some shredded potatoes before, but he wasn't so hungry on the way there.
Originally, he thought that he could meet Huo Ye, and he could have a good time with Huo Ye and negotiate projects, but he didn't expect Huo Ye to see his daughter.
It doesn't matter, anyway, if you pull the little wolf in, you are not afraid that the she-wolf will not enter, unless he doesn't recognize this daughter.
After a long time, Huo Conghan also sat down,
"Okay, I promise." Long Zhan smiled and took a piece of meat and sent it to her bowl,
"It's a pleasure to work with." Huo Conghan picked the piece of meat away in disgust, and shook a piece of it himself. This meat is eaten like this, it melts in the mouth, and it is very tender.
She couldn't help but look at Long Zhan a few more times, she was worthy of being the young master of the family, but she would eat more than ordinary people. Long Zhan didn't pay attention to her gaze, he was almost finished, and got up to go back.
Huo Conghan didn't keep it, and let him leave, but it just made her a little depressed, Long Zhan took away the fine salt and lamb leg when he left, and he didn't forget to giggle twice when he went out.
After Long Zhan left, Sha Biao asked, "Boss, did you really promise to give him thirty percent of the profit?" Huo Conghan said: "Thirty percent profit is nothing, it's just money, I don't care." All I care about is what he can bring me. Sha Biao said: "He has offended a lot of people before, and if we deal with him, I am afraid that many people will be unhappy." Huo Conghan said: "I know." But now there is nothing else to do, and now that the end of the year is approaching, if I can't finish the bet with my father...... I don't want to marry those dog-headed young masters. Sha Biao nodded, he also knew a little about that bet.
Suddenly, Huo Conghan turned his head,
"When I've said that, I'll talk about yours. You should know what I hate the most, and you dare to do such a thing under my nose, are you too long? Sha Biao immediately knelt on the ground,
"Boss spare my life, we won't dare next time." Cui Guangyu on the side also quickly knelt down.
"I said I wanted to give him an explanation." Huo Conghan suddenly reached out his right hand and slapped it on the left arm and left leg of the two of them.
"From tomorrow onwards, you two will follow him, and he will do whatever he tells you to do, and when he forgives you, you will come back." After speaking, she took out a small box from the box on the side and threw it to Sha Biao.
"Give it to him, it's a welcome gift." Sha Biao didn't know what it was, but he quickly picked it up and carefully held it in his hand.
Huo Conghan said: "You can get out." ”
"Yes." The two of them stood up slowly with sweat the size of beans on their heads, and then limped out of the gambling house.
After Huo Conghan and the others left, his eyes fell on the refined salt dish on the table again, and he licked his lips, still unsatisfied.
