Entering the courtyard gate, there is a huge and carefully stacked rockery, and the foot of the mountain is full of flowers and plants of different shapes, and bursts of fragrance are coming.

Bypassing the rockery, although the line of sight has broadened, I see more exotic flowers and plants, which have almost covered the entire courtyard.

I saw that there are a few rare and good-looking strange stones and hexagonal stone lanterns dotted between this flower and plant, and there are some sporadically distributed, three or five fine purple bamboos in a cluster, which makes this flower and grass seem to be spread very widely, but it is not monotonous.

A winding path paved with bluestone slabs passes through the flowers and plants to the second courtyard gate about seven zhang ahead, which is quite winding and secluded.

As Huang Si entered the gate of the second courtyard, the scene in front of him immediately made Su Wangting stunned.

I saw a six-storey mahogany high-rise building with the size of Tianxiang Building standing in the center of the large exaggerated courtyard, looking up at it, a huge plaque was hung under the eaves of the top floor of the building, and the three words "Tianle Building" were written on it.

There is a corridor on both sides of the first floor, which is connected with more than a dozen bungalows on the east and west sides of the courtyard.

Before entering the building, just looking at the small guys running back and forth and shouting, Su Wangting already felt very lively.

"Uncle?" Huang Si looked back at Su Wangting who was distracted, and his face was full of sneers, "What is so good about those who work, they are only worthy of entering and exiting the field from the side doors on both sides, and you, uncle, naturally have to go through the main gate!" ”

Saying that, Huang Si raised his head and glanced at the two people guarding the door, and the vermilion main door suddenly opened.

"Uncle, please."

Su Wangting bowed slightly, walked up a few steps, and walked into Tianle Building from the main entrance.

After entering the hall on the first floor of Tianle Building, Su Wangting was a little surprised.

But it's not an accident that this casino is huge.

For one, he was a little surprised by the level of luxury here.

I saw that in this huge field of ten zhang square, all the expensive colorful glass lanterns hung on it, and there were more than 100 of them as far as the eye could see; The ground floor is covered with precious red velvet carpets, and the corners are all spread all over, without a trace of leakage.

At a glance, there are about 30 exquisite rosewood gambling tables in this large hall, and even the gambling equipment on each table is mostly made of ebony, huanghuali and wenge wood, which is extremely exquisite.

Second, he was a little surprised by the desertion of the casino.

There were many people, but they were all gathered together.

I saw more than sixty people gathered in the center of the hall, all facing the huge mahogany staircase leading to the second floor, silent, as if they were all looking forward to something.

This desertion really shouldn't be in the noisy casino.

Just when Su Wangting was surprised, he saw that the crowd that had been quiet suddenly stirred, and they all pointed at the stairs.

Su Wangting followed everyone's fingers and saw a middle-aged man in gorgeous clothes who looked a little wealthy slowly walking down the mahogany stairs.

Huang Simao leaned his waist and said softly: "Uncle, you have caught up!" This is our steward of Lotte Village, Huang Jinglin. It's about time to return to the village once a month! ”

Su Wangting sighed, standing outside the crowd and looking at the man who was twisting his goatee from afar.

"Everyone, everyone!" Huang Jinglin raised his arms and shouted, "Today is the day when Chun Niang sits in the village, and you must have been looking forward to it for a long time." Well, I don't dare to delay your fortune, so I won't talk nonsense. Or that rule has not changed, each with the highest bet can bet against Chun Niang, everyone, this is the beginning! ”

After speaking, Huang Jinglin cleared his throat, turned back to the stairs and shouted again: "Please Chun Niang to go down!" ”

So Su Wangting was surprised again.

According to common sense, in this extremely luxurious place, it is a person who is highly anticipated, this Chun Niang does not say that her appearance is peerless, but it should also look graceful and luxurious.

But the woman who came down the stairs was coarsely dressed, plain and faceless, and her fair face was covered with even fairer flour, and a pair of hands with her sleeves rolled up held a rolling pin.

No one talked about it, and thought it was just an ordinary cook.

At this time, a little maid immediately ran forward to take the rolling pin in her hand, only to see her dust off the apron tied around her waist, and said with an apologetic smile: "Forgive me, Chun Niang is late." Hehe, this girl is from a poor family, and if she doesn't do anything for a while, she will be uncomfortable and idle. No, Shi Cai felt bored and wanted to make some pastries, but he was so involved that he almost forgot that today was the day of the village. ”

Saying that, Chun Niang walked to a gambling table by herself.

The crowd immediately hula-la-la-la.

But everyone didn't dare to circle too tightly, and formed a circle across the table.

It seems to have been formed a tacit understanding for a long time.

I saw Chun Niang clapping her hands, taking a deep breath, raising her flour-stained face and laughing: "So... Let's get started. Who will come to this first one? ”

"Me!!" I saw a hand in the crowd that grabbed a stack of silver tickets, "I am willing to bet 1,500 taels and bet with Chun Niang!" ”

"Humph! Fifteen hundred taels dare to speak out, but I look down on Chunniang too much! Another voice followed, "Bet three thousand taels!" ”

This voice continued, and no one answered.

Huang Jinglin waited for a while, raised his arms and shouted, "Okay! This first Zhuang is three thousand taels! Please, this uncle! ”

So a stout fat man squeezed out of the crowd, pinched a stack of silver tickets and sat opposite Chunniang with a smile.

"What does this uncle want to bet on?" Chun Niang asked, leaning her chin.

The fat man waved his hand: "Let's go to Pai Gow!" Best of 3!! ”

Chun Niang casually pulled the loose sideburns and replied casually: "Okay, it's up to you." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, a servant came running over with a delicate ebony box.

When I opened it, I saw a whole black shiny domino inside.

But as soon as the dominoes were poured out by the little guy, the fat man suddenly reached out and held down the card, and said with a smile: "I know that Chunniang's means are extremely powerful, if this card is washed by your hand, and the dice are thrown by your hand, then I am not ironclad to lose?" ”

Chunniang covered her mouth and yawned, and said, "You will wash the card, and you will roll the dice, okay?" ”

The fat man thought for a moment and shook his head: "Not good." Even if you don't do it, but you feel that as long as you see the card, you will lose eight or nine points. Hehe, panicked. ”

"Hey...... What are you going to do, uncle? ”

The fat man laughed: "Not like this." You and I are blindfolded with cloths, and all the dominoes are placed on the table with their backs facing up, and you and I will touch the cards blindly. The back of this domino is just as slippery to the touch, and you can't do anything about it. Hehe, this is better than luck! How is it!? ”

Chun Niang rolled her eyes, and said helplessly: "You will think about it if you are still uncle." Well, according to you, according to you. ”

So two servants immediately came up, quickly blindfolded them with black cloth, and carefully turned over all the thirty-two dominoes and placed them neatly on the table.

"You go first." Chun Niang said weakly.

"Good!"

The fat man stretched out his two fat hands and touched them back and forth on the slippery cards.

In a moment, the two dominoes were touched by him one by one.

"Let's report the cards." Chunniang yawned again.

The fat man tore off the black cloth, "snapped", and slapped the two dominoes in his hand on the table.

"Wow!!"

The crowd let out an exclamation in unison, and they all sighed that the fat man's luck was very good.

I saw that the two dominoes that the fat man touched out were both two red dots.

Twin land!!

It's the third biggest card in Pai Gow!

"Hahaha!!" The fat man couldn't help laughing, his face full of fat and shaking, "My card is Shuangdi, Chun Niang, it's your turn!" ”

Chun Niang let out a faint sigh, stretched out a finger, and slid it on the dominoes on the table.

It wasn't until the remaining thirty cards were slid by that finger that Chun Niang pulled out two cards.

"Uncle Lao, can you help me take a look? I didn't bother to tear off the blindfold so as not to tie it again. ”

"Good!" The fat man confidently took the two cards, "If you are lucky, I don't believe that the cards you draw can be bigger than my double land!" ”

"Smack!"

The fat man slapped the cards on the table again.

This time, the crowd erupted into even louder exclamations.

The fat man's eyes were almost falling off as he stared at the cards.

"Double... Double Days?? ”

"That's right! Chun Niang's card is a double sky!! Huang Jinglin repeated loudly, "In the first game of this first village, Chun Niang won!" ”

The fat man's face was flushed, he tied a blindfold again, and waved his hand again and again and shouted: "Don't make noise, don't make noise!" Again!! Lao Tzu doesn't believe in evil!! ”

So the fat man touched half a cup of tea this time before picking out two.

Another "snap".

The fat man floped excitedly again.

"Boom!!"

The crowd erupted this time, almost screaming.

And the fat man just stared at his cards, as if he couldn't believe what he was seeing.

Twin Days!!

He actually touched the card of Chun Niang's suitable talent!!

This is the second highest hand in Pai Gow!!

This fat man's luck can no longer be said to be ten points good, there are twelve points!!

"Good !!" The fat man suddenly shouted and stood up, and the fat face trembled slightly with extreme excitement, "Shuangtian!! Mine is a double sky!! Hahaha...... God bless, two handfuls of luck in a row! I can touch Shuangtian, I will win this game! Hahahaha......"

"Flop."

Before the laughter fell, Chun Niang's faint voice had already come.

The fat man looked at it and saw that Chun Niang had already pulled out two cards.

"Humph!!" The fat man smiled and picked up Chun Niang's card and raised his hand high, "The only one who can eat my two heavens is the Supreme Treasure!" You Chun Niang shake the dice, shuffle some means, but this game of cards only by luck, I'm afraid you are no different from ordinary people!! ”

"Smack!"

Desktop, trembling.

Fat man's hand, it hurts.

After seeing the two cards clearly, the crowd was silent this time.

The fat man's eyes were black for a while.

"Chun Niang card, Supreme Treasure!! The first village, Chun Niang wins! Huang Jinglin's voice echoed in the hall.

"Boom!"

Only then did the crowd of onlookers ease up, rushed up to the table, and sighed loudly as they pointed to the pair of dominoes on the Supreme Treasure deck.

The fat man, who lost three thousand taels, was helped to the side by two little guys and sat down.

The sluggish expression obviously did not ease up from the gambling game.

"Okay, the second bank begins. Place your bets. ”

But as soon as Huang Jinglin's voice fell, a lean man raised his right hand.

"I'll give you thirty thousand taels. Guys, no one is taller than me, right? The lean man looked around at the crowd, a contemptuous smile on his lips.

Sure enough, no one dared to answer.

There were only exclamations.

"Thirty thousand taels?" Huang Jinglin gasped when he heard this, and arched his hand at the lean man, "This uncle is very raw, didn't ask for advice?" ”

The thin man snorted lightly and said coldly: "Down, Qu Shan!" ”

"Wow!!" Huang Jinglin's eyes shrank when he heard this, and he unconsciously took two steps back, "Your Excellency... It is known as the ghost of Pingzhou Casino, and Qu Shan, the 'ghost hand Qu'? ”

The lean man raised his head and said, "Exactly." ”

Huang Jinglin suddenly broke into a cold sweat and said in a trembling voice: "This... In the unexpected...... You... Aren't you all active in the northern states, why did you suddenly go south? ”

Qu Shirt snorted lightly and said leisurely: "I heard that if you win the Chun Niang of your Lotte Village, you can win a hundred times the bet, and there is no cap, how many will be accepted??" Oh, this is a good errand that can earn three million taels, and no matter how far it is, it is worth it. ”

Huang Jinglin glanced at Chun Niang, leaned closer to Qu Shirt and sneered: "This... Otherwise, we will give you 3,000 taels of silver, which will be the right for you to travel back and forth. This gamble... Why don't you forget it? ”

"Hahaha!" Qu Shan laughed loudly, and didn't seem to have the slightest intention of giving face to Lotte Village, "What I said, your Lotte Village is a famous big field in the south, and since you let it go, how can you regret it?" If you spread this, wouldn't it? ”

Huang Jinglin wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, thought for a moment with a bitter face, and arched his hand: "Or... Shall you go down and report to the owner? ”

"Not necessarily." Chun Niang suddenly opened her mouth.

When Huang Jinglin and Qu Shan heard this, they all turned around and looked over.

I saw Chunniang yawn again and hooked her finger at Qu Shan: "Come, hurry up." I haven't finished the pastry upstairs, and if it's too late, it won't taste good. ”

Qu shirt raised his eyebrows, pursed his lips, walked over slowly, and sat down opposite Chun Niang.

But as soon as his ass touched the chair, Chun Niang stretched out her hand to him.

"Do what?" Qu said blankly.

"You said, thirty thousand taels. Take out the silver ticket first. ”

Qu shirt frowned: "In my name in this way, are you still afraid that I will rely on this mere 30,000 taels?" ”

Chun Niang shook her outstretched hand and smiled: "The rule of the old lady is to see the money first, and then start gambling." Hear me clearly? ”

Qu Shirt was stunned when he heard this, so he snorted coldly, and angrily took out a stack of silver tickets and threw them over.

"Oh! It's a thick stack. Under the gaze of everyone, Chun Niang looked at the silver tickets one by one in an orderly manner, and a smile bloomed on her face.

And Su Wangting, who was watching from the sidelines, couldn't help but smile when he saw Chunniang's demeanor and tone of voice.

Because he suddenly felt that this Chun Niang seemed to be a little similar to himself.
