Chapter 235: The Gambling House

"If I were you, I wouldn't be so much."

One hand pressed directly on the silver ticket that Shen Ning slapped on the table.

Shen Ning looked up, and the person who pressed his silver ticket was a thin middle-aged man, dressed in black at this time, and there was a scar on his collarbone, although he was laughing, this person was undoubtedly a ruthless person at first glance.

The man seemed to be a familiar acquaintance, and sat down directly at Shen Ning's table.

The little guy on the side was about to come over, but Shen Ning waved his hand and waved away.

"How to say this, brother might as well make it clearer." Shen Ning said.

The middle-aged man smiled: "I just think that you are giving money out for nothing." ”

"One hundred taels is not a small number, if you throw it like this, I don't know how much you have to throw it out, or I look away, brother, you have a solid background, I really can't look down on this hundred taels of white eyes, then I didn't say it."

Shen Ning pressed the silver ticket with his finger and put it in front of him: "This thing is not blown by the wind, even if I have a little family background, I don't want to throw it away casually, brother Tai might as well say it directly, have you seen that Jiang Sheng?" ”

Shen Ning was curious about how the middle-aged man was going to answer.

As Jiang Sheng's direct boss, there is really no one more familiar with him than him.

He was more curious about what this guy wanted to say and what he could say.

When he came to the gambling house, he naturally went through a little disguise, and now Shen Ning uses the face that he often comes.

Although it is impossible not to show flaws in front of the masters, it is enough to deal with this kind of place.

The middle-aged man smiled: "I suggest that my brother might as well bet like me." ”

He took out a silver ticket with a face value of 1,000 taels, handed it out lightly, and said, "Xiao Er, help me make a bet." ”

On the side, Xiao Er hurriedly greeted him, and he didn't need to look closely to know that it was a large amount of silver tickets, and the big customers came to the door naturally politely.

"Which one of you have the best odds here?" The middle-aged man asked.

Xiao Er on the side didn't think it was strange about this kind of inquiry.

In places like casinos, there are those who pursue rational money, and there are those who pursue illusory luck.

No matter how outrageous the situation was beforehand, they dared to bet.

The excellent quality made him quickly respond: "The biggest odds are that the patrol Jiang Sheng has lived for more than a month, and he can also kill at least three or more big leaders, and for each more leader, the odds are doubled, up to three." ”

The middle-aged man nodded: "Okay, that's it, bet all of them on me." ”

Xiao Er smiled: "Okay, wait a minute!" ”

He hurriedly took the silver ticket and trotted all the way away.

He really likes this kind of business.

I have seen them send money here in the past, but I have never seen such a simple delivery.

The odds are simply impossible.

Shen Ning was slightly stunned on the side, but then laughed: "What detailed information do you have when I am a brother, I didn't expect it to be just like this." ”

"The highest odds? Do you think Jiang Sheng can live for a month? ”

"The big boss is not to talk about it for the time being, everyone who can be called a big leader is a strong man who has experienced I don't know how many fights and finally survived, and his strength must at least be the peak of the cultivation realm, such a strong man, don't say it's just a small patrol, even if the city guards dispatch a brigade, they may not be able to take him down, you let him kill three people?"

"Brother, are you trying to make money and want to go crazy?"

"Just staring at the odds of hundreds of times, is it not the content of the odds at all?"

The middle-aged man smiled slightly, noncommittal.

"Want to make money?"

After a moment, he seemed to find the place a little boring.

I only saw the crowds in the gambling house, but I couldn't see what it meant.

So he breathed a sigh of relief: "Little Er! ”

Xiao Er, who had been waiting beside him, hurriedly trotted over: "Master, what's the matter with you?" ”

The middle-aged man said, "I want to bet." ”

He took a handful of silver tickets out of his arms: "These, all bet!" ”

Xiao Er's eyes lit up and said, "I don't know what you want to play?" ”

The middle-aged man said: "It's still the one just now, the one with the highest odds, you take all these silver tickets, I'll bet them all!" ”

Xiao Er's expression froze, and he was stunned for a moment.

It's not that he hasn't seen a ruthless person, but he really hasn't seen such a ruthless person.

This silver ticket is all of a large face value.

Just such a handful, at least tens of thousands of taels of silver.

Even if they are gambling houses, they will receive tens of thousands of taels of silver at once, and it will be a big sky.

"Master, wait a while, I can't do this kind of work, I'll help you ask."

After saying that, he hurriedly ran away and went straight into the back hall.

Not long after, the little second came back, with a smile on his face: "Master, I asked for you, you can bet, and the odds are still as they are now." ”

The middle-aged man waved his hand: "All in bet!" ”

Xiao Er excitedly took these silver tickets.

It's like they've earned it for nothing!

The shopkeeper in the back hall just now has already said that this kind of gambling is impossible to fake.

Moreover, Jiang Sheng's strength, they had already gone over to inquire before.

He even went to the Immortal Cloud Sword Sect for a trip.

Everyone was extremely sure that Jiang Sheng's own strength had just broken through the cultivation technique, and he was not strong at all.

Not to mention dealing with those big bosses, even if he dealt with some ordinary boss-level murderers, he couldn't deal with them.

And it's only been a month, how much can his strength improve?

The power of the cultivation realm is not like blowing up a balloon, which can be improved in an instant.

He had to go through a lot of trials to get there.

Since this is the case, even if the odds are exaggerated, it is just a silver money sent for nothing, and there is no pressure at all to accept it all.

Shen Ning on the side was also a little stunned when he saw this.

This wave of the hand is tens of thousands of taels of silver, and the wealth is simply not a little or two.

If it weren't for the recklessness that he didn't see in this middle-aged man, Shen Ning might have thought that this product was just out of a house that he didn't know from, so he would have made such a generous and neat move.

However, the middle-aged man's reaction also made Shen Ning feel a little interesting.

"Since Brother Tai is so generous, then I might as well play with you."

"Little Er, come, bet me too!"

Shen Ning waved his hand and bet the one hundred taels of silver tickets on the highest odds option.

Xiao Er bowed down, and he didn't dare to show much smile on his face, for fear that the two people in front of him would see that he was picking up money for nothing, and if there was a grudge because of this, it would be unnecessary.

After Shen Ning was charged, the middle-aged man chatted with him for a few more words, and Shen Ning asked, "This brother, why do you dare to bet so much?" But did you know about that Jiang Sheng, or did you say that there was someone behind him? ”

The middle-aged man said: "There is someone behind the back who can't talk about it, but I know him quite well, you just have to wait, this one hundred taels is enough to earn back all the silver you threw out before, and say goodbye." ”

With that, the middle-aged man got up and left directly.

Shen Ning looked at the back of the middle-aged man thoughtfully.

A very bold idea came to him, but it was precisely because it was so bold that he couldn't believe that such a thing could be true.

"Forget it, it's a hundred taels for nothing." Shen Ning smiled, looking at the noisy crowd in the gambling house, the few guys who were very fierce at first glance were still betting that Jiang Sheng would die in less than three days, and he felt a little anticipatory in his heart.

The middle-aged man walked out of the gambling house, shook off the little tails behind him with three crutches, walked into a small alley, and when he came out of it, he had already become a young man.

He walked down the street grinning, with a clear stupidity on his face that is unique to young people.

He looks good, but there are people on the road, and no one will really look at him more.

Jiang Sheng bought a sugar gourd with a smile, and by the way, invited all the children gathered around the stall.

The uncle who sold sugar gourds praised Jiang Sheng again and again for being a good person, and he went to half of his inventory at once, and he really smiled on his face.

Jiang Sheng smiled, looked at a few tiger-headed children among the children, pointed to a house in front of him, and after asking them a few simple questions, he immediately walked forward, and his figure quickly disappeared into the passing crowd.

No one cared about such a small thing as it happened, not even the people in the mansion who cared about the few words of conversation between a young man and a few little kids.

When the next day, when the body of the owner of the mansion, Li Bairen, the former leader of the flying thieves, was thrown in front of the gate of the mansion, no one could think of Jiang Sheng's body.

At this time, Jiang Sheng had already returned to the yamen with the things that were found from Li Bairen's mansion and one of his ears.

"What do you say? Li Bairen was killed by you? ”

When the chief officer in charge of the yamen saw Jiang Sheng coming, and was about to ask Jiang Sheng when he was going to go out to perform his patrol duties, he was startled by the bloody ears thrown by Jiang Sheng.

When he asked why, he naturally cried out in surprise.

Li Bairen's corpse naturally fell into their hands in the end.

As the former leader of the Snitch, the city guards were familiar with him, but they never wanted to set their eyes on each other.

It can only be shown that the energy behind Li Bairen is really much stronger than it seems on the surface.

Although the strength of a Li Bairen is not comparable to the city guards at all.

But if you add the underworld that gathers in the entire Babel City, these are two things.

After all, the city guards are still stronger on the surface, but the problem is that they can't really fight hard with these underworlds, and in the end, these murderers will unite and fight them to the death.

This is definitely not the outcome that the city guards of Babel City want to see.

Now that both sides have blended with each other, it has become the norm for you to have me, and I to have you.

No one wants to do this first thing that upsets the balance.

Of course, it is impossible for such an attitude to swing between the two major powers.

But if it falls on a specific person, then there is no problem.

Just one Li Bairen is not enough to make those underworld bigwigs feel threatened, so they unite to put pressure on Tongtian City.

And this kind of cleaning up the thieves is what the city guards should do.

They also have similar official positions.

It's just that because the thieves are powerful and the killing is too heavy, no one dares to continue in this position.

Now there is a Jiang Sheng, and he has been opened by the gambling house.

If he came to kill someone, it could be regarded as the most appropriate.

But the problem now is that suitable is appropriate, but whether it can be killed or not is two different things.

Jiang Sheng now stands up and says that Li Bairen killed himself, this kind of thing really challenges the understanding of the chief officer.

However, when Jiang Sheng took out Li Bairen's severed ear, even if the chief officer didn't want to admit this kind of thing, he was forced to admit it.

After Li Bairen's death, his body was taken away by the city guards.

Nominally, the cause of death was investigated.

They didn't really want to investigate anything at all.

Such a move is just a process.

In two days, he will definitely have to be sent back, and his family will have to give an explanation.

Before both sides have torn their faces, the city guards will not do this kind of action of hanging Li Bairen outside the city gate to show the public, that would be a little too provocative, unless the things these murderers did in their lives were too cruel to make the underworld unable to tolerate him, it was possible.

After comparing Li Bairen's corpse, it was confirmed that Jiang Sheng took one of Li Bairen's ears, and the chief officer's face remained unchanged, and according to the normal process, the reward and contribution were issued to Jiang Sheng at one time.

After Jiang Sheng left, he jumped up directly from the stool in a hurry.

"Shen Ning, you dog thief!"

Li Xi, the chief officer in charge of the bounty pursuit, hurriedly ran to the front of Captain Shen Ning.

The two of them are considered to be at the same level, and their personal relationship is quite good on weekdays, but the key is that their hobbies are almost the same.

After Jiang Sheng became a patrol before, these two gambling dogs must have been unable to help it.

After combining the information obtained from Shen Ning, Li Xi immediately invested most of the money he had saved into it.

Naturally, Jiang Sheng can only survive for three days, and the odds are also the lowest, if he wins, he will only win a mosquito leg, which is better than nothing.

Unless you put in enough, you can see a little bit of gain.

Who knew that Jiang Sheng was now victorious, which made Li Xi suddenly unable to sit still and rushed in front of Shen Ning.

Shen Ning is still sorting out official business, and miscellaneous matters such as the size of the recruits in the city guard, personnel allocation, and qualification review are all here.

It seems that the position is not low, but in fact, he can only manage new soldiers, and he is not a great person in the entire system of the city guard.

Shen Ning, who was directly scolded by Li Xi's anxious roar, looked at his friend in astonishment.

"Did you take the wrong medicine? I didn't do anything to be sorry for you, did I? Just come up and scold me? ”

Shen Ning didn't seem to be much dissatisfied.

Li Xi came to Shen Ning in two steps: "Scolding you? It's light to scold you, I can't wait to kill you, do you know how much I have to pay now! ”

Shen Ning: ???
