Chapter 42: What Matters to Me?
Gao Li flicked the list of gambling fights: "Brother Yu, remember to cooperate with our family." ”
He paused, and said in Yu Lie's ear again: "But let's give my brother another explanation, the promise just now is still valid, and I won't take your life." Our family today is not just about money. ”
Gao Li pointed to the top of the gambling pit: "There are distinguished guests today, and our family needs to win several times in a row, so we have to calculate it on Brother Yu'er's head, you just need to let our family rest a little more, take a few breaths, and have the strength to play the next game." ”
Gao Li's mouth came out of his mouth, as if he was appeasing Yu Lie.
Yu Lie looked down at the yellow paper and found that the words "winning streak and undefeated" were written on the yellow paper, and the winner in the gambling pit could continue to stay in the field and participate in the next gambling fight. This is riskier, but the dividends are also higher.
And Gao Li arranged for Yu Lie to play, and the two sides played fake fights, probably in order to conserve their physical strength so as to meet the next gambling fight.
This made Yu Lie squint his eyes slightly, he glanced at the private room upstairs, and thought: "Gao Li wants to win a streak tonight, is it to win something?" ”
Just when Yu Lie was thinking about it, Gao Li also kept glancing at the private room and Yu Lie, and his eyes flickered: "I didn't expect this guy surnamed Yu to be able to take the money tonight." Obviously, I went to the Danfang to inquire before, this guy has no background at all, and he almost offended the superior Taoist ......"
But when Gao Li thought that he had already digested the change of "like a wolf and a tiger", he gritted his teeth: "This guy hasn't even entered the Tao for two months, it can't be too powerful!" Now that the list of bets has been listed, I can't change ......"
Gao Li's eyes sank: "It's a big deal, when the time comes, it's really like what was explained to him, let him go!" ”
This person even secretly thought that if Yu Lie was really powerful, he could also take the initiative to admit defeat. In this way, even if Yu Lie's methods are amazing, he can still save a life, and he will have a chance to mend the relationship with Yu Lie afterwards, at most he will seem ridiculous.
After some thought, Gao Li suppressed the slightest mistake in his heart, consciously thought about it properly, and turned to look forward to the big benefits after the winning streak.
As Yu Lie suspected, the reason why Gao Li wanted to create a winning streak today was not simply to win, but to have another plan!
Because in the gambling house in Blackwater Town, there will occasionally be high rollers from outside the town who come to play, and if the winner in the gambling fight is very conspicuous, it may be taken as a minions and taken away from Blackwater Town.
And among the high rollers who came to play this time, there were people who had such plans.
Gao Li just wanted to make himself stand out in the gambling fight through his own careful design, win the favor of high rollers in one fell swoop, and then leave Blackwater Town.
Although there is a lot of risk in this way, and it may even offend the owner of the gambling house, once he can get out of Blackwater Town and get a high roller, it will be no less than the opportunity to hunt fierce beasts and eat into the Tao for Gao Li!
This is a plan he has been planning for a long time! He is not willing to rot in Blackwater Town for most of his life!
Suddenly, snort!
There was another stream of blood splashing up in the gambling pit, which fell on the gamblers' faces.
A stiff human head flew out of the gambling pit and fell on the seat, causing everyone to exclaim: "Dead again!" ”
Roar!
The black and steaming tiger stepped on a headless armored corpse, and its demonic energy was agitated, and it once again let out a deafening tiger roar.
There was silence in all directions.
Yu Lie's and Gao Li's eyes were also attracted, and then Yu Lie saw Gao Li Dao Tong grinning in front of him.
The other party turned around and grinned: "It seems that it's time for our family to play!" ”
As he had spoken, Golly turned his back and walked towards the gambling pit, where he twisted his head into a strange shape and made a gurgling sound!
I saw that this person's figure flickered, and he fell steadily into the gambling pit, and stretched out his long tongue, his body bulged, twisted and wriggled, and began to transform.
The croaking of frogs sounded as loud as a drum.
Gao Li turned into a frog, laughed, and shouted to the surrounding spectators:
"Ladies and gentlemen, it's time to place your bets!"
Cracking sound!
The quiet gamblers were excited again, the noisy sound sounded, and some small guys beat gongs and drums, and hurriedly shouted: "Bet, bet, bet, don't wait!" ”
In the private room upstairs, the big-headed doll gambler also clapped his hands: "It's fun and fun, toad vs. black cat." ”
The yin owl behind the big-headed doll pounced, looked at the gambling pit a few times, and said lightly: "A Taoist boy who has digested the second change, fighting a fierce tiger on the verge of a fierce beast alone, is a bit interesting." ”
The old man of the gambling house rubbed his hands and introduced: "The young master and this gentleman have eyesight. This is the little Taoist children in the workshop, knowing that there are distinguished guests today, they specially came out, and wanted to win a few rewards, so as to facilitate the purchase of medicine to complete the next change! ”
When the old servant heard this, he smiled but didn't smile: "The reward is naturally there, it depends on whether he has that life." ”
And in crowded gambling houses.
Gao Li left, and Shan Daotong sat in the other party's position, sitting opposite Yu Lie, with his neck to watch the gambling pit.
Shan Daotong also squeezed his eyebrows at Yu Lie, and said, "Brother Yu, do you want to make some preparations, it's time for you to go down later!" ”
Yu Lie was coerced by Gao Li, and when he saw himself on the gambling list, he didn't say anything. Therefore, in the eyes of Shan Daotong, Yu Lie has already accepted his fate, and he has to enter the market next.
However, Yu Lie looked at Gao Li, who had already entered the gambling pit. He pointed to himself, suddenly laughed and asked:
"I, why did I enter?"
When Shan Daotong heard Yu Lie's words, his throat choked: "You, you are not afraid ......"
Yu Lie didn't pay attention, but stretched out his hand to the little guy behind him: "Take the money." ”
The gambling house is holding the remaining 10,000 yuan, as well as the contract to mortgage the liver and lungs, which is a bet between the two parties later.
The little guy was stunned for a moment, not understanding the meaning of the remaining columns.
Yu Lie simply stood up directly, took the tray in the other party's hand, and said, "This 10,000 yuan is used by the poor road to pay off the debt." What kind of thing is high interest, you can detain it if you say that you can detain it, and you have no rules in the gambling house? ”
The little guy looked suspicious.
After taking the tray, Yu Lie weighed it, shook his head and said, "Gao Li, this guy wants to use his own money to gamble back what he should have gotten back a long time ago...... This guy can't help but take himself too seriously. ”
The gambling house was a little caught off guard, and repeatedly gave nearby colleagues and stewards a look.
Footsteps sounded, and immediately someone surrounded the remaining columns.
Yu Lie was not flustered at all. He is not a newcomer, let alone a gambling house buddy, and he has not committed any taboos, nor has he signed a painting to gamble, so there is no need to be afraid.
The town has its own rules, and the gambling house is only a part of the town, not in the wild.
"However, since Gao Li took Poor Dao's deed as a bet, then Poor Dao can also play with him."
Yu Lie looked back at the gambling house and asked, "In your workshop, are there any middle-ranking Taoist children involved in the gambling fight?" ”
The gambling house guy didn't know why, so he could only nod.
Yu Lie bared his teeth and said with a smile: "Since the Taoist friend of the high interest wants to play, then bother the little brother, invite a Taoist boy above the middle rank to come over, and the poor Taoist is willing to use this ten thousand dollars to ask him to gamble with the Taoist friend of the high interest and get the contract back." ”
After a pause, Yu Lie spoke: "If the Taoist friends of Gaoli are unwilling, withdraw the gambling fight." ”
At this time, the steward of the gambling house happened to walk up to Yu Lie, and the other party heard the conversation between Yu Lie and the little guy, and his face was strange.
Yu Lie's words were indeed in line with the rules, but they seemed to rarely see people who owed money to dare to do so.
The steward did not show anger, but ordered in a low voice, and quickly sent someone to report to the private room upstairs.
After Yu Lie finished speaking, he continued to sit in the chair, not taking the reaction of the gambling house too seriously.
Gao Li is just a bluff, just thinking about letting Yu Lie fight for his life, whether the other party is playing real or fake, it is too beautiful.
If Yu Lie can't pay back the money, the other party may be satisfied, but it is only possible. Only a fool will really follow the other party's rules.
………………
Soon.
In the private room upstairs, the Taoist who looked like Lao Dan was informed, and his face was immediately stunned.
The old servant in the private room caught a glimpse and asked alertly, "What is the matter?" ”
Lao Dandao choked, smiled dryly and told the matter between Yu Lie and Gao Li, and rubbed his hands apologetically: "The subordinates want to play tricks, so that the two guests can laugh." ”
The old servant of the Yin Owl immediately sneered, "Self-righteous." ”
The old servant frowned and asked, "Do you have any rules in your gambling house?" ”
Lao Dan's face stiffened slightly, his eyes flashed, and he said a few words to the visitor coldly.
Lao Dan then rolled his eyes again, and played a round with a smile:
"But it's also a pleasure! No matter how hearty the gambling fight is, it has to be amused by the harlequin, right? The guest officer then looked at ......"
Several people's eyes looked at the gambling pit again.
After a while, the fishy smell in the gambling pit flourished again.
Gao Li Daotong's long tongue was like a whip, and behind him, the fierce tiger that devoured several people had been disemboweled, and his organs flowed out.
This person does have some means, he can fight alone, and most of the exercises he cultivates are not simple, his strength is strong, and he may really win several games in a row.
Whew!
Gao Li cut off the tiger's head, he held it in his hand, his face was excited, and he screamed at the crowd in the gambling house: "Come again!" ”
The crowd in the gambling house either scolded her mother or was excited: "It's dead, it's dead!" Finally dead! ”
The rattling of the money resounded in the gambling house.
The crowd roared: "Next, next!" ”
But the next moment.
Gao Li Daotong's complexion changed suddenly.
Because a huge figure suddenly fell from the outside of the gambling pit, its person was like a giant bell, and his body glowed yellow, as if it was cast in copper.
The people who came were not the rest of the list.
The giant stood behind Golly, pinched his head lightly, and smiled:
"Someone, please let me bet with you!"
What made Gao Li's heart palpitate even more was that the little guys who collected money outside the gambling pit suddenly shouted at the top of their voices: "The lower position is the middle position, the gambling residue or the gambling death, buy it and leave!" Outdated does not wait! ”
Hyper pupils are constricted.
He jerked his head to look over the stands, and found Yu Lie sitting in his place, knocking peanuts and smiling at him.
The next moment, a scream sounded in the gambling pit:
"Nope! I ......"
Gory wanted to shout something, but the giant covered his mouth.
The long tongue is like a knife, and it scrapes against the body of a giant, like a bronze statue, and sneers.
It didn't take long.
Poof! The sound of melons and fruits cracking sounded.
Yu Lie on the table sighed, he put down the peanuts, arched his hand towards the gambling house steward, and then picked up his IOU and walked out calmly.
The usury matter is finally over.
At the table, only Shan Daotong was left to sit alone, he looked at Yu Lie's swaying back, and then looked at the fuzzy flesh and blood in the gambling pit, which had not even left a last word.
A thought popped up in the mind of a single child:
"It's over, the head who just got on the side, it's gone!"
When the other gamblers saw the blood again, they were even more excited, roaring and feeling very excited.
