Chapter 31: A Thrilling Gamble
Qi Yufeng looked at the two of them calmly, sat down on the chair next to him, and whispered to Ye Suiyun: "I have searched the surroundings, but I have never seen my junior sister, I don't know where they are hiding?" Although because of Tang Xiao's relationship, he has always had a grudge against Ye Suiyun, but he knows that at this moment, in this place that seems to be mixed with dragons and snakes, but is actually very dangerous, if you want to save people, you must work hand in hand with Ye Suiyun to have any hope of success.
Qi Yufeng himself is not a stupid person, he is meticulous and has rich experience in the rivers and lakes, so he has earned the nickname of 'Calligraphy and Ink Tianji', which not only praises him for his good writing, but also says that he is smart and changeable, and he is really a character who is both civil and military. It's just that when dealing with things related to Tang Xiao, it is often in response to the sentence 'care is chaos', and deviations will inevitably occur. This time, he learned that Tang Xiao was taken away, so he rushed here in a hurry, first quietly looked around, and found that this place was heavily guarded, and seeing the steps and postures of those patrol guards were full of martial arts, he concluded that this place was by no means a simple gambling house. Considering that if you use force immediately, it will inevitably startle the snake, not only will you not be able to save Tang Xiao, but it will make the other party hide people more secretly. Therefore, he pondered and made the same decision as Ye Suiyun, and used winning money to force out the person in charge, which would not arouse suspicion, and maybe let the other party reveal clues.
Ye Suiyun said in a low voice: "Since you are here, then the two of us will act separately, and I will leave it to you here, the louder the better, I will take advantage of the chaos to look for it, maybe I will find something." The two discussed it, and the basket over there was also uncovered, as expected, there was a four, two five, people let out an exclamation, only to see two ingots of silver treasure each ten taels on the fourteen o'clock, this time the casino will lose two thousand taels, I wonder who is so lucky?
The dealer's face changed slightly, and he forced himself to calm down, and let the person next to him lose twenty big ingots, which were pushed in front of Ye Suiyun and Qi Yufeng respectively. Murong Yunqing clapped his hands and cheered: "You two are really good, you have won so much at once." ”
Ye Suiyun smiled: "How about it, I will pay you back 100,000 taels after I talk for a while, I didn't lie to you." After speaking, he and Qi Yufeng looked at each other and smiled, and the two of them thought: "I don't know what the chaos will look like for a while, this girl is still in a happy mood." ”
Ye Suiyun pushed the silver ingots in front of Qi Yufeng, stood up and said, "Hey, go find a place to make it convenient, you can continue to play." He stretched and left the table.
asked the people next to him for directions, and Ye Suiyun slowly walked out of the hall door, humming a little song while swaying leisurely. Those unkind thugs observed him once or two, and knew that this was just an ordinary gambler, so they ignored him. Ye Suiyun walked a few more steps, saw that there was no one left and right, his body flashed, and disappeared into the darkness.
In the gambling hall, unlike Ye Suiyun's internal strength to improve his ear power, Qi Yufeng relied on the skill of listening to the wind and distinguishing the instrument that he had practiced since he was a child, so he mastered the points of the dice in the basket without any difference. This time he heard that it was one, three, four, and eight o'clock small, so he pushed all the two thousand taels of silver ingots on the table to eight o'clock, Murong Yunqing couldn't help but be anxious again, and said in a low voice: "Senior Brother Qi, we don't need to be in such a hurry, we can only put one hundred taels at a time, so that if we lose, we won't be wiped out." ”
Qi Yufeng said calmly: "Don't worry." He stopped talking, and Murong Yunqing had no choice but to ask God for blessing in his heart, it must be eight o'clock.
Most people pointed their fingers at this expressionless young man, and I don't know where he got the confidence to dare to press down two thousand taels of silver at a time, and at the same time thought: "If this bet loses, it's nothing, if you win, the gambling house will lose a full 200,000 taels." ”
The dealer's head was sweating slightly, his hands trembled slightly, he took a deep breath and lifted the lid. Everyone held their breath together, and saw that inside the cup, one was one, one was three, and one was four, which was exactly eight o'clock. People were stunned for a moment, and they all roared, and the sound exploded at once, some shook their heads, some exclaimed, and even the people at the table next to them were attracted to them. Suddenly, there was a flood around the three outer floors, and I wanted to see this amazing gamble.
The sweat beads on the dealer's head couldn't stop dripping, turned his head to the person next to him and gave a few words, and then kept wiping the sweat on his face with a towel. Qi Yufeng still looked calm, and Murong Yunqing next to him was already elated, and shouted to the dealer: "Shake the next game." ”
The dealer nodded nod, shook his head, and was at a loss for what to do, when he heard a female voice say, "It turned out that it was a distinguished guest, what a rude." The dealer was relieved, quickly dodged to make his debut, and walked up from behind a charming woman like the wind, in her thirties, her eyes were fluttering, every time she squinted her eyes, her face was powdered, her mouth was painted rouge, she was holding a slender cigarette stick in her right hand, and she was spitting out faint green smoke while talking in her mouth, and looked at Qi Yufeng with a smile. The dealer just now seemed to see a savior, wiping his sweat and whispering: "Sister Ping, this kid is a little weird, he only presses points every time." ”
Sister Ping scolded: "Fourth, what nonsense, this is a distinguished guest, you have to pay for it, and you don't want to make people think that my Fengxiang Gambling Village can't even afford to pay this little money." The dealer named Lao Si was reprimanded by Sister Ping, and quickly closed his mouth, not daring to say anything more.
Sister Ping stared at Qi Yufeng and said, "Your guest looks so handsome, I don't know where it came from?" The voice was soft and greasy, full of seduction.
Qi Yufeng saw that the cigarette stick in her hand had a strange shape, although he had seen Xiao Tong's weapon in Junshan was also a cigarette stick, but it was too short compared to this, and secretly thought: "This woman's cigarette stick must be strange." "I was secretly vigilant in my heart.
Murong Yunqing saw that this woman had a foxy expression and was wearing revealing clothes, and he didn't like it at first, especially when he heard what she said to Qi Yufeng, he was even more disgusted, and lowered his body to Qi Yufeng and said: "Senior Brother Qi, this woman is not serious, don't pay attention to her." ”
Qi Yufeng smiled slightly and said: "I'm here to gamble money, is it true that the rules of this casino still have to investigate where my family lives before letting me gamble?" ”
Sister Ping was knocked back by Qi Yufeng's words, and her face flashed with anger, but after a while, she smiled and said: "The guests are so big, but if you want to come to Fengxiang Gambling House to win money, you have to see if you have the ability, how about letting the slave family play with you?" Qi Yufeng stopped talking, and turned his gaze to the cup, meaning to wait for Sister Naping to start.
Sister Ping sneered slightly, still holding the cigarette stick in her right hand, throwing the three dice into the basket with her left hand, closing the lid, copying it with her hand, holding the basket in her hand, and shaking it constantly, the technique was very fast and crisp. Some onlookers shouted hello. Qi Yufeng knew at a glance that this woman was full of martial arts, but she was not afraid of it, and she could naturally cope with it.
I saw Sister Ping's hands rising and falling rapidly, and her wrists kept shaking, but I heard the dice in the cup and the wall of the cup collide and make a crisp tinkling sound. And the cigarette stick in her right hand has slowly moved towards Qi Yufeng intentionally or unintentionally, and then sucked in the cigarette holder, a faint smoke slowly floated out of the smoke pot, this smoke is very peculiar, neither scattered in all directions, nor vertically upward, it seems that there is a force to gather the smoke into a bunch, straight towards Qi Yufeng.
Seeing this scene, Qi Yufeng knew that Sister Ping was using internal force to urge the smoke over, so she would gather like this and not disperse. Because the smoke pipe itself is very long, the smoke pot has spanned most of the table, so the smoke rushed to Qi Yufeng's face, he immediately felt a slight dizziness, and immediately reacted that this smoke must be mixed with drugs and the like, secretly exercise, walking all over the body, the feeling of dizziness disappeared in a moment.
At this time, everyone, including Murong Yunqing, stared at the shaking sieve cup in Sister Ping's hand with bated breath, no one noticed anything strange about this smoke, and the smoke only blew towards Qi Yufeng consciously, and did not affect others, and it was even more unaware.
Qi Yufeng thought to himself: "This woman's indiscriminate methods are so powerful, there are so many people, she can only deal with me without attracting attention, I don't know how many people have been harmed by this trick." Thinking of this, he deliberately narrowed his eyes slightly, as if he was dizzy. Qi Yufeng is not chivalrous, and he only does things according to his own preferences, and this Sister Ping used Yin carving methods against him, so that he couldn't help but have the heart to play her well.
Sister Ping saw Qi Yufeng's face change slightly, thinking that he had been controlled by the smoke, she was proud in her heart, and the cup in her hand slammed on the table with a bang, and said with a smile: "Guests, please place bets." There was confidence in his tone. At this time, the other gamblers on both sides were already silent, and whoever dared to bet only looked at the two quietly.
Qi Yufeng said with a cold face: "This table is too small to fit, so I will put all the money I won just now at ten o'clock." As soon as these words came out, everyone exclaimed, you must know that his profit just now is 200,000 taels, if this bet is all placed and won, it will be a full 20 million taels, but I am afraid that the entire gambling village may not be worth this price.
Sister Ping frowned slightly, although she was confident that the handsome young man just now had been disturbed by his own smoke and would never hear the points of his outstanding son, but now that he was so confident, he couldn't help but worry.
Although Sister Ping is a master of gambling and has martial arts, she is far from reaching the realm of listening to points. The gambling house has been open for the past few years, because the backstage is hard enough, and there has never been any martial arts master to make trouble, and the wife has always been peaceful. This time I met a character like Qi Yufeng, so that Sister Ping, the old fritter, couldn't help but feel worried, she secretly thought: "It doesn't matter if he is pretentious or not, be careful to sail the ship of ten thousand years." Thinking that the little finger secretly flicked around the base of the cup, there was a pre-set mechanism in it, and the dice that was covered in it jumped slightly, and all of them turned over, and the points naturally changed. Even so, Sister Keping didn't know what time it would become, anyway, she only asked for a different number of points than before Qi Yufeng placed his bet.
Sister Ping smiled and seemed to breathe a sigh of relief: "Okay, this master is really generous, heroic enough, and has no regrets." As he spoke, he lifted the lid, and immediately fell silent, this time without even an exclamation, as if even the air had condensed. People stiffened their necks, stared at their eyes, and couldn't close their mouths when they grew up, including Sister Ping, who were also stunned to look at the three dice lying quietly in the basket, one at two o'clock, one at three o'clock, and one at five o'clock, which added up to ten o'clock.
It turned out that when Sister Ping was making movements just now, Qi Yufeng had already seen it in his eyes, knowing that this woman was going to do something, he held his hands at the bottom of the table, watched Sister Ping's movements, and at the same time pierced an internal force, from the bottom of the table straight through the cup, and at that moment firmly locked the three dice seeds, so that although the mechanism at the bottom of the cup was shocked, the dice did not move at all, and it was still facing up at ten o'clock. This time, Qi Yufeng's eyesight, mental strength, and internal strength are all extremely accurate, and it is difficult to succeed sooner or later, after all, with his cultivation, he can't spit out his true power for a long time, it's just a matter of an eye. And all this, all people did not notice and could not have noticed.
Murong Yunqing calculated several times, and made sure that it was a good win, shook Qi Yufeng's shoulder, and exclaimed: "Senior Brother Qi, we won 20 million taels, haha." He was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth. Qi Yufeng smiled slightly, and turned to look at Sister Ping.
Sister Ping's face was like dirt, and her lips trembled and asked, "Who are you, you are here to smash the field today, right?" You don't inquire, what is the place of Fengxiang Gambling House? ”
Qi Yufeng looked strange and asked, "Isn't this a place for gambling money?" Who stipulates that only the gambling house is allowed to win, and the guests are not allowed to win? Winning money is smashing the field? Ay. "I deliberately kept shaking my head, as if to say, you are nothing more than that.
No one on the lookers dared to say a word for Qi Yufeng, they all knew that the people here were not easy to mess with, although in principle, the gambling village should lose money if it lost, but no one dared to say more, so as not to get into trouble.
After all, Sister Ping is a person who has seen the scene, and she took a deep breath and said: "This master has a kind, we are willing to gamble and lose, please wait for a while, such a large amount of silver taels will be calculated by our big shopkeeper, and then brought to you." ”
In the middle of Qi Yufeng's arms, he said in his heart: "I just want to find your person in charge to come out." He said, "Yes, don't worry." After speaking, he pulled a chair next to him and said, "Yunqing, sit down and rest for a while, and help me carry the silver for a while." Murong Yunqing grinned and sat down.
Sister Ping glared at Qi Yufeng viciously, and with a wave of her hand, she led a few of her subordinates into the inner hall. The gamblers saw that they were not lively, and they all left the table in twos and threes, and everyone was still talking about the thrilling game just now, mixed with envy, jealousy, surprise, and curiosity. There are also people who worry that this man and woman have won so much money, but they may not be able to take it away. And at this moment, what Qi Yufeng was worried about was whether Ye Suiyun had found Tang Xiao.
Ye Suiyun came out of the lobby and looked around, but he had no clue. When he walked to the base of a wall, he suddenly heard the sound of footsteps in front of him, and three big men on patrol came over, and he didn't have time to think about it, he turned over and crossed over the wall.
After landing on the ground, listening to the three people gradually drifting away, they were about to climb into the wall again, and suddenly heard a voice above their heads: "Haoyue is rare, such a beautiful scenery is not enjoyable, but it is like a thief to turn over, wouldn't it be a big spoiler to the scenery." ”
Ye Suiyun was taken aback, he didn't expect there to be someone here, and when he looked up, he was sitting on the branch of the big tree next to him, because it was too dark, he couldn't really see the appearance of this person. Ye Suiyun jumped up, jumped onto the branch, and sat down with the man at a distance. At this time, he could see clearly that the man was holding a wine jug in his hand, dressed in a silver-gray robe, with hair over his ears, and a handsome face, but there was a faint pride and a little sadness between his eyebrows.
Ye Suiyun thought to himself: "This person's popularity is extraordinary, but I don't know whether he is friend or foe. He asked, "Your Excellency is so elegant, but you don't know what you want to do with me." ”
The man raised his eyebrows and asked, "Why do you see that I am looking for you?" ”
Ye Suiyun said with a smile: "If it weren't for the special trip to find me, I think as Your Excellency, I wouldn't sit here in the middle of the night just to see the moon." "I said this because Ye Suiyun felt that the person in front of him was not only extraordinary, but also a top master, so high that he couldn't even figure out the depth.
The man laughed and said, "It's worthy of Ye Suiyun, I have observed you for a long time, and I have waited for you for a long time, and you really didn't disappoint me." ”
Ye Suiyun was stunned for a moment and asked, "Do you know me?" ”
The man thought for a moment and said, "I don't know each other, it's just that I've been waiting for you to appear, to be exact, waiting for someone like you to appear." ”
Ye Suiyun couldn't help but feel a little curious and funny, and said with a smile: "Although I don't quite understand what you said, but what you said for a long time, I think it's only a few months, right?" "Thinking back to the escape from the martial arts prison, it has been a matter of a month now, even if this person wants to ask him for help, he should have heard about himself during this time.
The man smiled, turned his eyes back to the night sky, and said slowly: "Since Nie Xiaotian disappeared, I have been waiting for you for twenty years. ”
