Chapter 53: Angering the Old Man Who Played Chess
The middle-aged woman was very angry, but in the face of Jiang Linxian's sudden outburst of ghostly energy, she couldn't attack again, so she could only vent her emotions on her two children.
She grabbed the heads of the two children on the ground and walked back to room 303 step by step.
When she left, Jiang Linxian continued to clean.
As he passed through room 306, he heard the groans of the barmaid coming from inside the room and the lewd laughter of the thin middle-aged man.
After cleaning the floor, he cleaned up the stairs and came to the second floor.
The light on this floor is much worse than above the third floor.
The lights in the hallway flickered on and off, making it look a little weird.
But Jiang Linxian didn't care.
Now he found that moving the landlord, Mrs. Hu, out all the time was quite effective, and the tenants of this happy apartment seemed to be more jealous of her.
This also shows that Mrs. Hu's strength is not bad.
It seems that I have to have a good relationship with Mrs. Hu, so that the other tenants will not dare to embarrass me.
But fortunately, he has the title of 'soft rice and hard food', which can not only increase his charm value, but also reduce the resistance of creatures of the opposite sex to him.
It's simply a rare best title to seduce a rich woman.
In the blink of an eye, he came to the first floor to clean up.
At the entrance of the apartment building, the old man was still playing chess.
This time it was replaced by a middle-aged man.
He wore a pair of glasses, and his expression was calm and calm, as if he was good at chess.
The old man frowned at the moment, and fell into deep thought.
Jiang Linxian didn't bother to look at it anymore, and cleaned up seriously.
When he cleaned the corridor of the elevator on the first floor, he heard the old man suddenly laugh.
"You've lost."
"Hey, hey!"
"I want one of your ears!"
Immediately afterwards, I saw a ghost behind the old man, and a cloud of ghostly blood directly swallowed the middle-aged man's ear.
The middle-aged man with glasses covered his ears, his face expressionless, without a trace of fear.
He got up to leave, and couldn't help frowning the moment he saw Jiang Linxian.
But he didn't speak, and walked directly into the elevator.
It seems that this middle-aged man is a ruthless character, and his face did not change in the slightest after one ear was eaten by the old man.
Instead, he left very peacefully.
Be yourself.
The old man was satisfied, he looked at Jiang Linxian, saw that he was cleaning, and smiled at him: "Young man, do you want to play a few games of chess too?" β
Jiang Linxian ignored it and continued to clean.
When he passed by here just now, he glanced at the chessboard between him and the middle-aged man, intentionally or unintentionally, and seemed to have a general understanding of the old man's chess strength.
The level should be on par with the Duke of Ernst at Delaskasbah, slightly worse than him.
Seeing that the old man was still staring at him, he immediately replied: "Wait until I finish cleaning first, otherwise Mrs. Hu will think that I am derelict in my duty when she sees it." β
"Hehe, okay, don't lie to the old man, or I'll cut off your tongue and eat it."
Don't know who cuts whom?
Jiang Linxian sneered in his heart, he was going to cry the old man later!
After cleaning all the hygiene, Jiang Linxian cleaned the utility room again, closed the door, and walked to sit down opposite the old man.
"What's the deal?"
"If you lose, I'll take a part of your body, and the same goes for me if I lose."
When Jiang Linxian heard this, he felt that it was too much of a loss, and immediately did not agree.
After all, the loss of a certain part of these ghosts does not affect their daily life, and they can't be a living human.
"I want your part to be useless, do you have anything else of value?"
The old man was stunned for a moment, and when he saw Jiang Linxian so confident, he suddenly hesitated.
Seeing that he didn't answer, Jiang Linxian immediately said in a strange manner: "You don't have anything valuable, right?" Are you embarrassed to play chess with me? β
"Or are you starting to get scared? Don't dare bet on me to play chess? β
"Who said that!" The old man was enraged by Jiang Linxian, and retorted with a glare: "I have a lot of valuable things!" It's up to you to get it! β
The corners of Jiang Linxian's mouth twitched, obviously disbelieving: "Then you take it out and show it to me." β
"I play chess very principledly, and if you don't have an item of corresponding value, I won't play with you."
When the old man heard Jiang Linxian speak so arrogantly, he was immediately furious, and the ghost shadow above his head appeared in an instant.
Jiang Linxian felt a little angry in his heart, now that the power of his blow had been used up, he would not be able to recover until twelve o'clock in the evening.
The old man's strength is stronger than him, and it is impossible to fight hard, so he can only have the courage to confront him.
If he coaxed him at this moment, maybe the old man in front of him really ate one of his arms.
"What? You want to scare me? Jiang Linxian stared at the ghost figure above the old man's head, and said calmly: "If you dare to touch a single hair of me, I will tell Mrs. Hu." β
"She told me today, if anyone bullies me, just tell him, you don't want Mrs. Hu to embarrass you, right?"
As soon as he heard that Jiang Linxian had moved Mrs. Hu out, the old man immediately took the ghost back and snorted coldly.
He got up, glared at Jiang Linxian and said, "Follow me." β
"Go to my room and see what is valuable."
Jiang Linxian hesitated a little in his heart, afraid that this old man would not play his cards according to the routine.
If he entered his room, this old man forced him to close the door and eat himself, it would be more than worth the loss.
But he had no choice now, so he could only get up and follow him: "Do you have any big treasures?" Still at home? β
The old man didn't answer, and walked directly into 101's room.
Jiang Linxian also walked in, and was ready to take out the blood-colored ghost stick at any time.
His room is also a one-bedroom apartment, with a simple layout, and on the wall of the living room, there is also a portrait of his deceased wife.
When Jiang Linxian glanced at it, the old woman on the portrait suddenly smiled at him.
Jiang Linxian instantly looked away and looked around the living room.
"See for yourself what I have here that I can bet on?" The old man brought out a large black box.
There are a lot of miscellaneous items in it.
Paintings, porcelain, knives, dolls, all kinds of things.
[That set of cards, you will be useful. γ
A prompt suddenly appeared.
Jiang Linxian casually took out the set of cards in the black box.
The cards were blank on the front and there was nothing, and the back was black with a very intricate gold texture painted on them, a bit like a talisman.
"That's it."
"Humph! I thought you had a good eye, and you chose a useless deck of cards, not even as good as the two children of 303. The old man sneered, and then took the black box back.
"Now you can start playing chess, right?"
"Of course."
