"Haha, win three in a row! It's a pity, it's a pity! It's only a big game here, it's a pleasure, but it's a little less exciting. If we can bet on guessing points and pay a higher price, then we have to win enough!"

Tong Lu stroked the hot silver coin he had just won and shouted loudly.

"Who said no! It's just this little brother, this girl, do you dare to play!"

Everyone looked at it together, only to see that there was one more person next to the dealer, he was naked, his muscles were very solid, his black clothes were tied around his waist, like a skirt, his face was delicate, he looked like a weak scholar, and the tendons and flesh of this body did not match very much. Tong Lu looked at the person's appearance, and just smiled dryly,

"We're just a little fight, it doesn't matter if you win or lose!

The man made a sleeve gesture, but found that he was not wearing clothes, he naturally touched his hand to his elbow, and then slowly put it down, and said to Tong Lu,

"It's okay to guess big and small, it's okay to guess odd and even, if you want to guess the number of points, as long as you are willing to play, we will pay for it." If you want to get your hands on it, it's okay to be bigger than me!"

Tong Lu looked back at Bai Qing and asked her,

"Hehe, it's all won money anyway, why don't you play a few more games with him?

Bai Qing stuck out his tongue and nodded, Tong Lu smiled,

"Got it! You're shit lucky!"

The man looked at Tong Lu Baiqing with a smile and said with a smile,

"Well, have you thought about it?"

Tong Lu shouted,

"Otherwise, let's play Guess the Points first!"

The man raised the bowl and put it away at will, and everyone looked at Tong Lu Baiqing, wanting to wait for them to bet first, and make a reference for themselves. Tong Lu took out a small amount of silver, divided it into two parts, looked at Bai Qing, Bai Qing understood, and put his index finger to his mouth as a reflection. Then he said,

"I guess, three-five-six, well, one-two-six. ”

A group of gamblers listened to it, but it was not easy to start, they have always only guessed the size, win or lose, Bai Qing placed two bets in a row, one group is large and one is small, which really makes them embarrassed. The game was booming here, Xiao Yi noticed that there were people walking around in the compartment on the second floor, as if he was observing the situation outside, and he didn't know if that person was the legendary Wu Lao Wu. If it was really him, Tong Lu would have played it like this and attracted his attention, and he might be able to see the real person. Although the gambler hesitated a little, he still quickly made a big or small decision, and made up his mind to leave, and the man was dismissed.

"One, two, three, small! I'm sorry girl, you guessed wrong, I'm going to take back this silver!"

Tong Lu was also refreshed, took the initiative to hand over the money, and said with a smile,

"If you want to lose, let's do it again!"

Then the man asked,

"How do you play this time?"

Tong Lu looked at the broken silver and said with a smile,

"Guess the points again, this time we're going to lose, we're going to move the old book!"

The man shook the bowl twice at random, held it in front of him, and said,

"Then please!"

Tong Lu asked Xiao Yi and the little monk for the number, Xiao B said four, five, five, and the little monk said two, two, three, and one small, but he could open three, four, six, and lost another game. Tong Lu sighed,

"Hey, it's really hard to guess the points! Qingqing, you don't know what luck your three have, and you can't rely on it at the critical moment!"

Bai Qing smiled,

"It's all won anyway, it's too chaotic here, let's go." ”

Tong Lu was still unwilling, he looked at the onion, his eyes rolled,

"Shallot senior, you can't do it!"

It took a while for the shallot to turn around, glaring at him and saying,

"Why not!

Tong Lu laughed,

"Then let's play again!"

He kept only the whole ingot, and took out all the rest of the broken silver, and said,

"Please!"

Seeing that he was still not giving up, the man skillfully compared, the dice bowl was set, and everyone began to bet. The gamblers saw that these people were no longer magical, and no one looked at how this side was going anymore. Tong Lu winked at the shallot, but the scallion didn't look at him, his face twitched slightly, but he recovered immediately. He tugged at the sleeve of the shallot and said,

"Shallot senior, we've all played, don't waste your last game! If you win, it's enough for us to eat for a few months!"

Shallot took these words in his mind for a moment, squinted at him, and said,

"One!"

Tong Lu was puzzled and asked,

"There are three dice here!"

The shallots hated and said,

"One is one, where are the three!"

Tong Lu glanced at the person who opened the official and instantly understood,

"Hey, a little, just a little!"

He put down the broken silver, took out the whole silver ingot from his bosom and put it together, and said with a smile,

"If you win, I don't know how much you can lose. ”

The gamblers were stunned, and thought that they had misseen and misheard! The man suppressed his face and stretched out his hand to open the official. Suddenly, the shallot's eyes widened, the corners of his mouth crooked, and he yelled at the man,

"Don't move your hands!"

The man was startled, his hand resting on the bowl, not daring to move. The gamblers were shouting loudly, but they all fell silent. The shallot twitched the right side of his face, placed his hand on the man's hand, and lifted the bowl steadily.

"Oops! Oops! The third son got up again, a little up, what a little!"

When someone saw it, they shouted. Regardless of whether he won or not, he kept howling, thinking that this rare scene was encountered by himself, and he celebrated from the bottom of his heart, even the little monk was jumping and dancing, which showed how happy it was to win in this casino. Xiao Yi Baiqing didn't know why Tong Lu was so bold, but there was an unfathomable onion next to him, and the two of them went with him. Tong Luji was proud, and he hugged his fist to the gamblers.

"Thank you, thank you! We have one here, one counts as one, opposite Yachunju, today we charter the venue, eat and drink freely!"

The gamblers cheered, happier than if they had won. Look at that person again, his face is like ashes, his upper body is white, his fists are clenched tightly, and his eyes are about to bleed! Tong Lu looked at him with a smile and said,

"I am willing to lose the bet, big brother, you see how this game is paid!"

The man didn't dare to speak, and the upstairs door that Xiao Yi noticed opened, and out came a middle-aged man, around forty, of medium stature, not very strong, with a ruddy complexion, and a kind appearance. When they saw him, they all stopped what they were doing, and looked at him in unison.

"Hello Fifth Master!"

"Fifth Master!"

“......”

Everyone shouted, Xiao Yi and a few people already knew that this person was that Wu Lao Wu, Xiao Yi looked up at him, this person looked kind and indisputable, no matter what, he would not connect him with the bully leader.

Wu Lao Wu came downstairs, everyone made a way, and he slowly walked to Xiao Yi and a few people.

"My subordinate is too ignorant to dare to make a mistake in front of the masters, this time I should teach him a lesson!"

Tong Lu was not stunned at all, and replied,

"Fifth master, you won't deny it! On this gambling table, you are willing to lose the bet!"

Wu Lao Wu smiled,

"I, Wu Lao Wu, can still afford this bit of silver. Little brother, how much do you think the compensation is!"

Tong Lu smiled and said,

"Each son has six sides, and the third son is two hundred and sixteen sides, and I don't mention how difficult it is to get it together, let's give a discount, and ask for a whole two hundred!"

Wu Lao Wu nodded slightly and said,

"Little brother is benevolent and righteous! I prepared food and wine in the back, let's talk while eating?"

Tong Lu looked at a few people and said with a smile,

"There's the fifth master!"

Tong Lu was proud in this gambling house, swaggering behind the fifth master, Xiao Yi smiled, pulled Bai Qing and the little monk, and the onion followed slowly behind him.

Behind this gambling house is the Tsing Yi River, there is a small building on the river, there is a corridor to communicate with it, the little monk is very excited, lying on the railing and dangling. When a few people came to the building, there were already wine and food on the table, and all kinds of vegetables, fruits and desserts were available. Xiao Yi has never seen anyone build a small and medium-sized building in the river for dinner, and he is also very curious!

"Everyone, this small building has just been built, and you are its first wave of guests!"

Wu Lao Wu motioned for everyone to sit down, and he brought wine to pour it for everyone. Shallot and the little monk didn't care about anything else, and when they ate a lot, Bai Qing put a hand towel on the little monk's chest, afraid that he would stain his clothes. Tong Lu picked up a small glass of wine, took a sip lightly, and said,

"The fifth master is really polite, but this Yachunju, I have already agreed to come down just now, this will be ......"

Wu Lao Wu knew what he meant,

"I've already arranged it, you can rest assured. ”

Tong Lu grinned and said,

"The fifth master is really careful, and he is extremely intimate!

The fifth master smiled and raised his glass to drink,

"Little brother, do you know that you almost lost my casino just now!"

Tong Lu Huidao,

"If I bet a little bigger, I'm afraid it will be!"

Cheng Lao Wu said again,

"I've been observing for a long time, and you don't look like someone else is here to smash the field, so you haven't stopped your subordinates. After you win three games in a row, you have double-bets twice in a row, which is to avoid the speculation to take advantage of the tricks, which I appreciate very much! After losing both games, you deliberately provoked this master to shoot, and we were convinced to lose the game!"

Tong Lu laughed dryly,

"The fifth master can see it thoroughly, but if your subordinates want to play some tricks, have they also entered your eyes?"

Wu Lao Wu sighed and said,

"My righteous son has a strong nature, and doing this thing also makes my face disgraceful! Fortunately, I was stopped by this master, so I didn't lose face!

The shallots only cared about eating, and even the little monk didn't pay attention to them, not to mention this Wu Lao Wu. Tong Lu said with a smile,

"Leave him alone, there's something missing in his head. ”

Wu Lao Wu was not reluctant, and asked again,

"Another question, I don't know how you know that this master knows how to listen to sounds?"

Tong Lu Huidao,

He didn't seem to have been in the casino, in the first game, he had some doubts in his eyes, the second game was a sudden realization, and the third game had not yet started, he listened to Bai Qing's words, and he was full of confidence. Later, he lost two games, and the disdain in the eyes of his predecessors grew. I was right next to him, and I could see it clearly, so I concluded that he already knew the secret in this bowl, and then bet all his net worth in the next game, and he would make a lot of money! Haha! Haha! But fortunately, the seniors were alert, so they didn't let your righteous son succeed!"

"I see, I see! It's funny, it's funny!"

"Fifth Master, can you get all this money for a while?"

Wu Lao Wu smiled and replied,

"I can't make it up, so please come in and talk and see if you can give less!"

A few people laughed,

"The fifth master is really fast-talking! We are not unreasonable people, you are ready to prepare ten silver ingots of the same size!"

Wu Lao Wu just picked up the wine glass and put it down again,

"Cheap for me?"

"But there's one more thing to ask for!"

"But it doesn't hurt to say it!"

Tong Lu cleared his throat and said,

"We heard that the fifth master's subordinates are collecting taxes everywhere, I don't know if it's right or not!"

"I know this, the fixed shop is charged once a month, and the retail investors are charged on the same day, so what is wrong with doing things according to the official plan?"

"As soon as I saw the fifth master, I knew that the fifth master was not a person who wanted to make money, and it must have been this subordinate who acted arbitrarily and put the overcharged money into his own pocket. ”

"I do instruct them to levy a little more, but they only ask for an extra 10%!"

If you only pay an extra 10%, then how can you complain everywhere! This extra 10% can keep them safe, and you can still have the fifth master to help settle it in case of trouble, but I am afraid that most people will take the initiative to hand it in. But now it's not what you think, the vendors are hard to bear!"

"I know, I'll send someone to investigate, if it's true, I will be severely punished!"

Wu Lao Wu took another sip and said with a smile,

"So you came to me for this! I'm still wondering how strange someone would bring a woman and a monk to gamble!"

"So now that it's done, and you've made money, hey, it's happy!"

"Then you're welcome, we don't know each other if we don't fight, and we won't get drunk today!"

Everyone no longer has any scruples, eats and drinks, and no longer regards themselves as outsiders. The green water in Tsing Yi flows slowly under the small building, silently, without desire.

This night in the small building overnight, the next day, everyone quit Wu Lao Wu, and in this Yazhou city to play around, close to the evening, this is to find a modified passenger ship on the Tsing Yi River to rest. The ship was originally used for long-distance cargo transportation, but later stopped work because the ship was too old to maintain long-range missions, and due to the high maintenance costs, the owner sold it to Wu Lao Wu at a low price. Wu Lao Wu's subordinates were full of thoughts, fixed it in the water of Tsing Yi, strengthened and widened, and then separated the cabins into guest rooms, and started this business for people to eat and stay. This ship is huge, how can it be compared to an ordinary house boat, there are large-scale activities every half month, and it is extremely popular. Xiao Yi and the others also heard what people said, so they came to see what happened, how many people now have money, why do they need to inform Wu Lao Wu again. But fortunately, it was in normal times, so they were able to grab three rooms, and if they arrived at the rally, they were afraid that only one would not be available. The popularity of this business can be imagined.

There was food and drink on this boat, but there was no shortage of anything, a few people asked for some wine, came to the side of the boat, blowing the river breeze, very comfortable. Xiao Yi leaned against the eaves of the boat and took a sip of wine,

"The smell of this wine is too faint, I am afraid that people who are good at wine can only use it for decanting wine!

"This little brother knows how to drink! This wine is filled with roses, but this amount is very particular!"

Not far from Xiao Yi's side, someone actually replied to him. Xiao Yi was just talking to himself, but he listened to it, and he thought that this person's ear power was also different from ordinary people. Xiao Yi stepped forward and asked him,

"This big brother, I don't know what to pay attention to, can you say a word or two. ”

The man smiled and said,

"The taste of this wine is very light, if there is a little more rose, there will be no taste of this wine, one point less, and there is no magnificent fragrance, and the amount is extremely difficult to grasp. Drinking this wine is good for the body and mind, even the old and young women and children can drink it directly, it is really the best drink for family gatherings! We always have this wine on this ship, and it is also the most popular wine among the guests!"

The man tilted his head and whispered in Xiao Yi's ear,

"Actually, it's more important to make money! If you don't get drunk all the time, won't you be able to sell it for more money! Haha!

Xiao Yi smiled knowingly, and was about to say a few more words to him, but the man waved his hand and turned to leave. The lights were dim, and Xiao Yi couldn't see the person's appearance clearly, but vaguely saw that the bridge of his nose was high, which was very different from ordinary people. Xiao Yi was puzzled, Tong Lu came over, smiled, wanted to drink with Xiao Yi, Xiao Yi touched him, and said with a smile,

"Lu Lu was so energetic yesterday, and his complexion is also good today! I see that there are no gambling people in Yazhou Mansion who don't know you!"

Tong Lu laughed twice,

If it weren't for you and the shallot seniors beside me, how would I have the guts!"

While the two were talking and laughing, a small boat rowed underneath, and the water was not loud, but Xiao Yi heard it clearly. He looked down, and through the faint light of the great ship, he saw the familiar background of the man he had just spoken to. Xiao Yi looked at the slot again, and saw him glance down, and he should have found an abnormality. Xiao Yi thought to himself, there are still people on the boat at such a late hour, and I don't know if there is really an emergency, or if I have to do some illegal deeds. He thought for a moment and said,

"This man is a little strange! I don't know where I'm going at such a late hour!"

Tong Lu looked down for a while, but found nothing,

"Where is there anyone!Brother Xiaoyi, I think you're drunk!"

Xiao Yi understood in his heart, but he didn't want to say more, thinking that this person might just go home.

Hearing that the next meeting would be held in three days, several people also wanted to see and learn, so they paid for the room in advance and gave them all food and shelter. Yazhou is so big, you can mix for a few days in any place, and you don't have to worry about finding happiness in these three days. The shallots wanted to go to Chengdu as soon as possible, but they were fooled by Tong Lu for a while, saying that the garlic would look for him in the Dadu River, the two of them have a deep brotherly relationship, and they want to see people and dead corpses, and they will never leave it alone, if they can't find it, they will go north to Chengdu, and now they go to Chengdu, and they will definitely not find him, so it is better for everyone to gather in one place, take care of each other, and be very happy. Shallot has gotten along with a few people these days, and he has also been a lot more friendly, so he followed Tong Lu's words. Besides, the little monk in the center of the circle, he is so old, and what has he done, he is interested in everything, and likes to look around, but he still doesn't speak much, and occasionally says a word or two, and everyone will be happy for a long time.

These three days passed in a flash, and preparations for the assembly on board began two days ago. Xiao Yi looked at the preparations here, and the number of people who wanted to come to the rally was definitely not a few. With all kinds of decorations and lights, this boat has changed greatly! In this meeting place, there are delicacies, seasonal fruits, emotional songs and dances, and there are also chaotic ears and bamboos, and even the masked jugglers shuttle through it from time to time. As for those vassal and elegant people, they gathered in another place, guessed lantern riddles with peace of mind, and wrote couplets. All the supplies on this ship are provided free of charge, but if you want to get on the ship, you have to pay a large entrance fee, and this ticket is only enough for a family of five to make a living for half a year! Therefore, most of the people who come here are rich families. But even so, the demand for tickets is in short supply. Xiao Yi and a few people can naturally enter this game because they paid a high room fee.

The rally began at sunset, but the boat was already brightly lit, and a series of firecrackers sounded, and the rally officially began. At the beginning, there were people who led everyone, and after that, they were all familiar with the road and went to find their own happiness. After playing for a while, Xiao Yi felt extremely bored, this young lady was entertaining here, but I was afraid that she wanted to find a good match here, and she carried a stick around by herself, but it seemed a little abrupt. Bai Qing didn't find it funny, and came to a quiet place with Xiao Yi to chat.

"It's not worth the money! It's not fun at all!"

Bai Qing complained, Xiao Yi agreed with her,

"Yes, look at Lu Lu, you're playing crazy, this kid can't be rich in the future!"

The two laughed, Tong Lu saw it from a distance, and came over with wine,

"What are you two doing here, why don't you go over, singing and dancing while drinking, it's fun and fun!"

Bai Qing replied to him,

"Lu Lu, you can play by yourself! I'm not that interested, wait for the noise to be quieter, and then go back to the house and sleep!"

Tong Lu pouted and said,

"It's boring! Okay, no matter you two, I'm going to play, and there are a few young ladies waiting to invite me to drink!

After speaking, he jumped away with the wine bowl in his hand.

Xiao Yi sighed and said,

"Qingqing, your room is a little off, it shouldn't be so loud, you go back to rest first!

Bai Qing was also bored and nodded in agreement. The two talked for a while, and then parted. Xiao Yi sent Bai Qing back to the house, and then he went to the thatched house.

There are four or five rooms next to this thatched house, Xiao Yi tried one by one, only one was empty, he pushed the door in, the stench was stinking, Xiao Yi couldn't cry or laugh, I couldn't imagine that this group of young ladies looked like on weekdays, and pulled up, but it was not more fragrant than ordinary people! After going to the thatched house, as soon as the door was opened, a person rushed in, and bumped into Xiao Yi, he turned around and closed the door again, Xiao Yi only vaguely felt that this person's bones were slightly smaller, a little thin, and Tong Lu was the same, just slightly shorter.

After the man came in, he was also unruly, stretched out his hand and groped on Xiao Yi's head, Xiao Yi was about to speak, but the man gently covered his mouth and nose. Xiao Yi only felt that the hand was unusually warm, delicate and tender. Xiao Yi held his breath, not knowing what he was going to do, but he felt that this person was not malicious, and he wanted to see what else he wanted, so he let him cover it like this. After a long time, the man let go of his hand, and he breathed a sigh of relief and said,

"Oh, it's dangerous, it's dangerous!"
