Chapter 66: The Gambling House (1st Update)

Ling Chu raised his fingers and pinched it, frowning.

That Hu Batian wanted to use Ge's mother and daughter to pay off the debt last time, but she stopped him, but he didn't expect that he would not die of a thief.

Worried that something would happen to Liu Xiangju's maid, Ling Chu did not hesitate, got into the carriage and went straight to the Changle Gambling House.

She was in a hurry, and the coachman rushed to the gambling house as fast as he could.

Ling Chu got out of the carriage, and the maid of the summer solstice followed.

In a place like a gambling house, there were a lot of fish and dragons, and Ling Chu wanted to let this maid stay in the carriage and wait for her.

But Xia Zhi disagreed, how could there be a master to go to a dangerous place, and the maid would stay in a safe place and wait.

Ling Chu was worried that it was too late, Liu Xiangju's maid had an accident, and seeing that Xia Zhi insisted, he didn't persuade much.

took the summer solstice to the door of the gambling house, but was stopped.

At the gate of Changle Fang, the two men guarding the door frowned and said impatiently, "This girl, you are in the wrong place." This is a gambling house, not a place for you to come, so hurry up. ”

Ling Chu glanced at them, too lazy to detour, "I'm looking for Hu Batian." ”

The two guarding the door glanced at each other, and when they heard that she was looking for Hu Batian, their attitude eased a little, but they didn't let her in.

"The gambling house is a place to gamble money, if you want to find Brother Hu, just wait outside."

Ling Chu frowned, and directly took out a silver ticket from his sleeve pocket, "I'm not looking for someone, then I'll go in and gamble for money, it's always okay, right?" ”

The gambling house is open to welcome customers from all over the world, as long as it is to come in to gamble, they are welcome, but whether you are a man or a woman.

Ling Chu directly took out the money and said that he wanted to go in and gamble. The two gatekeepers had no reason to stop any longer, so they directly got out of the way and welcomed her in with a smile on their faces.

After entering the gambling house, I walked a short distance inside, and all kinds of noisy voices rushed to my face.

Changle Gambling House is a famous casino in Beijing, at this time it was crowded with people, all of them were concentrating on the gambling table, and Ling Chu's arrival did not attract anyone's attention.

Only the housekeeper of the casino noticed.

Although most of the people who come to the casino are men, it is not without women.

Some noble ladies of the family are idle and bored, and they will also come to the casino to play a few games.

But most of those girls came to see the world with their brothers.

Like this girl, who only brought a little maid over, although it can't be said to be unique, it's also rare.

The steward's gaze paused on Ling Chu's face, and he quickly greeted him with a smile on his face.

"What do you want to do with this girl?"

Ling Chu saw that he was dressed and guessed that he was the manager of the casino.

Seeing her looking at herself, the steward of Wu said with a smile, "I am the steward of this Changle Fang, surnamed Wu." I don't know what the girl wants to play, if you don't understand, I can introduce it to you. ”

Ling Chu glanced at him and said directly, "I don't gamble, I came in to find Hu Batian for something." ”

The steward originally thought that she was a noble girl who came to the gambling house to play curiously, but she didn't expect to guess wrong.

Hearing that she was looking for Hu Batian, the smile on her face fell, "Hu Batian is not in Changle Fang, the girl is looking for someone, go find it somewhere else." ”

Ling Chu's brows furrowed again, this gambling house was mixed, and all kinds of smells filled his nose. She has a keen sense of smell, which is nothing short of torture for her.

She didn't want to stay here any longer.

She had calculated before, Hu Batian was obviously in Changle Fang.

Could it be that before she arrived, she left?

Ling Chu glanced at the steward, and always felt that this person seemed to be lying.

Now that she had suspicions, she simply turned on the system.

After scanning the entire gambling house, he soon found Hu Batian's location.

This Changle Gambling House has three floors, in addition to the lower floor, there are two floors above.

That Hu Batian was in a private room on the second floor at this time, Liu Xiangju was kneeling on the ground by two men, and on the Taishi chair in front of her, a man in his thirties was looking at her condescendingly.

Finding Liu Xiangju, Ling Chu turned around and walked towards the stairs.

Seeing that she wanted to go upstairs, the steward took a few quick steps and blocked the staircase.

"Girl, this is a gambling house, you can't walk around. If you're looking for someone, you're going somewhere else. ”

The stairs were blocked, and Ling Chu could only stop, "I have something urgent to find Hu Batian, and I ask the steward to pass it on." ”

"I said, Hu Batian is not in Changle Fang, the girl wants to see him, it is better to go to his house to find out."

"Steward, I know that Hu Batian is on it."

The steward was surprised, this girl just came, how did she know that Hu Batian was on it?

This is probably a deception to him.

The steward's face sank, "Girl, you can't help it here, I said that Hu Batian is not here." ”

No matter whether she guessed or really knew that Hu Batian was on it, he couldn't let this girl go up.

Steward Tao had ordered earlier that no one should go up and disturb him.

Ling Chu didn't know why this steward kept blocking her from seeing Hu Batian, but she had to take Liu Xiangju away today.

"Hu Batian robbed my maid, I have to see him today."

The steward was stunned, he knew that Hu Batian had indeed brought a girl over before, saying that she had bought it for the Tao steward.

Could it be that the girl turned out to be the maid in front of her?

Or was it robbed?

But how could the person in the hands of the Tao steward go back.

It doesn't matter if he robbed it or bought it, anyway, when he entered Changle Fang, he was the person in charge of Tao.

"I'm here in a gambling house, but I don't have any maids. I'm afraid the girl is mistaken, you have to find the maid, find it somewhere else. If you dare to make trouble again, don't blame me for being polite and let people drag you out. ”

With a wave of his hand, seven or eight powerful men immediately surrounded him.

At this glance, you can see that it is a thug raised by the gambling house.

Ling Chu sighed, she didn't like to fight at all, why did these people have to force her.

Seeing so many thugs, Xia Zhi swallowed nervously, quietly pulled Ling Chu's sleeve, and said in a low voice, "Girl, why don't we go back first, and then find a way to find someone to save Xiangju." ”

Although she was worried about Liu Xiangju, Ling Chu was the master, and Xia Zhi was worried that she would have an accident in the gambling house, so she was so anxious that she couldn't wait to pull her away immediately.

Ling Chu patted the back of her hand comfortingly, "Don't worry, it's okay." ”

She dared to come to the gambling house alone with the summer solstice, but she was not a reckless person.

Fortunately, she has rested her spirits in the past two days, and she has drunk health medicine again today, and her body feels okay now.

Seeing those thugs coming around, Ling Chu pretended to be scared and wanted to take the maid back.

But at the moment of turning around, he flipped his wrist and took out the stack of talismans that he had just drawn yesterday.

Before the thugs could react, their hands were raised.

The stack of talismans was thrown by her onto the thugs.

The steward didn't expect her to make a move, so he was stunned for a moment.

Although those thugs saw Ling Chu's movements, they saw that what she threw out seemed to be paper, and they didn't think so.

Thinking that this girl was just being blocked, she was angry but helpless, so she could only spill the paper she was carrying to vent her dissatisfaction.

How could these thugs think that what Ling Chu threw out was a talisman.

By the time something was wrong, it was too late.
