When Lu Chuan came out with Xiong Binan, Wang Shouren and Jiang Bin had just arrived. The two didn't know why, but seeing Lu Chuan's indifferent expression, they thought it was nothing, so they didn't ask more.

Liao Hui smiled and said, "Lord Jin, you have to thank Xiao Jianjue, if it weren't for him, you wouldn't be able to keep this black gauze hat." ”

"Yes, yes, the lower official and a few colleagues have already prepared a thin courtesy......

Lu Chuan said with a smile: "Lord Liao, the matter is over here, I heard that there is a gambling house in Quzhou, which is quite good, why don't you and I steal half a day's leisure and go shopping?"

"Oh, Xiaojian definitely still has this kind of Yaxing, then I will give my life to accompany the gentleman. ”

Liao Hui said, glanced at Jin Zhongming, Jin Zhongming suddenly understood, took out a stack of silver tickets from his arms, presented them with both hands, and said, "The two adults will go to play first, and then the lower officials will send someone back to get it." ”

Liao Hui took the silver ticket and counted it, divided it into two halves, handed half to Lu Chuan, and put half into his arms.

Lu Chuan took the silver ticket and glanced at it roughly, it was 17,800 taels, two fingers and one clip, stuffed it into Jiang Bin's waist, and said lightly: "You don't need to take it anymore, just play with it, you don't need it much." ”

When Liao Hui heard this, his eyes were suddenly a little surprised, he had only seen the insatiable Jinyiwei, but he had never seen too much.

Lu Chuan also knew that he was speechless, and explained intentionally or unintentionally: "I only like gold and silver, silver tickets, I think it's not much different from waste paper." ”

Liao Hui laughed, "Indeed, you think this is a silver ticket, but if you don't recognize it, it's waste paper, or real money, it's just too heavy." ”

"Besides, we are full of friends all over the world, how many places can we really use silver?"

Liao Hui thought so, it was the first time he felt that the young man in front of him didn't look so annoying.

The light ink pavilion is the same as the Songqing Pavilion in the capital, they are all silk villages, the layout of the two is very similar, the only difference is that the top floor of the Songqing Pavilion is several rooms, eating and drinking are all available, and can be used for brothers and friends to live and rest temporarily. However, the top floor of the Light Ink Pavilion is a gambling house that is neither big nor small, without the smoke and noise of ordinary gambling houses, and it is a reasonable and well-behaved place at first glance.

Lenglongling is a very well-behaved place, but Lu Chuan has no doubt that Danmo Pavilion is Leng Longling, because when he was on the mountain, his eldest brother Yang Mu said that Leng Longling's industries are all over the world, and there are all walks of life, but there are only these two, Qinglou and Gambling House.

Eating, drinking, prostitution, gambling, and losing the family law, and the root of the prosperity and decline of the descendants. Eating and drinking is still the foundation of human survival, but no matter how the word greed is explained, it is unreasonable. Leng Longling guards the border for the country and ensures the safety of one party, and will never do such things that hurt nature and reason and collect these ill-gotten gains.

Lu Chuan and the others entered the silk village, and went upstairs without saying a word, and the shopkeeper of the Light Ink Pavilion just smiled slightly, did not speak, and did not stop him.

When they reached the top floor, they were immediately greeted by someone and asked to sit down.

The tables and chairs on both sides are neat and clean, there are all kinds of fresh fruits and vegetables for drinks and snacks, and there are three gaming tables in the shape of finished characters in the middle.

At this time, there were people at the table, but they didn't know what they were playing Lu Chuan, Lu Chuan's understanding of gambling money was still at the level of playing dice in groups of three or five on the street, and he thought that gambling money was only about playing dice.

So he lowered his voice and asked, "What is this?"

Jiang Bin thought for a moment and explained in the shortest language: "This thing is called Pai Gow, a total of thirty-two cards, from two to twelve, three cards each for five, six, seven, eight and nine, one for three, and two for the rest of the points. The general situation is that the two cards add up, to see whose mantissa is big on who wins, but there are also special circumstances, a total of twenty-two, the largest is the supreme treasure, red a little black two points of Ding three and four red two black two four, down is the day card, red six black six two twelve points, two red cards two, two red cards. Card red one black three two, plum black ten two, long shirt black six two, bench black four two, bull black eleven two, red head red four black six two, sharp seven red one black six two, copper hammer red one black five two, followed by miscellaneous nine, miscellaneous eight, miscellaneous seven, miscellaneous five, a pair of different colors, red big black, flat oblique. King of Heaven single day card with nine, King of the Earth single card with nine, heaven bar and earth bar with eight, day nine is day card with black seven, earth nine is ground card with red seven. ”

Lu Chuan silently remembered in his heart, and then nodded,

But it was said that Liao Hui had been paying attention to those gamblers since he came in, and when he saw that Lu Chuan and Jiang Bin had finished whispering, he leaned over and asked, "Xiao Jianjue, do you know these people?"

"Just a gambler, how do I know each other?"

"I don't think this gambling house is like an ordinary gambling house, and these gamblers don't look like ordinary gamblers. ”

"Oh, where did Lord Liao see that?"

"Look at the old man on the Tianzi table, although his clothes are ordinary, I am afraid that few people don't recognize the two-foot-long sword spike on his back. ”

As soon as Liao Hui said this, Lu Chuan also paid attention, frowned slightly and said: "A sword with a tassel on the head of the sword is not a rare object, but such a long sword spike ...... Isn't it the head of the Xiaoshan faction, the sword 'Credit Moon'?"

When Lu Chuan was in the Bailong Lake Wanjian Villa, he listened to the old sword saint of Wanjian Gate and commented on the world's famous swords, including this credit moon, Li Bai has a poem: "And on the Dongting credit moonlight, the boat will buy wine Baiyunbian", this is the origin of the word "credit moon", but it is not the origin of the name of the sword.

In the previous dynasty, there was a brilliant swordsman named Wang Mian, of course, this is a saying on the rivers and lakes, in the eyes of the world, Wang Mian may just be a sour scholar who was personally called by Emperor Taizu as an official. Wang Mian was born in poverty, in his early years, he herded cattle for the rich for a living, and he relied on self-study in literature and martial arts, but this experience also made him develop an arrogant temperament, sympathetic to the suffering of the people, despise the wealthy and wealthy, and have a poem as evidence: "I want to fly high on the Dongting boat, buy wine on credit and invite immortals." Call the snow plum blossom sky for you, shake hands and smile for three thousand years. ”

Emperor Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang is a person who holds grudges, Wang Mian refused to be an official on the grounds of becoming a monk, so he stared at Wang Mian in the name of becoming a monk.

So the descendants of Wang Mian created the Xiaoshan faction, with "Credit Moon" as the name of the sword, recalling the ancestors and remembering the ancestral teachings.

If this old man is the head of the Xiaoshan faction, the old sword fairy Wang Zi, then Lu Chuan is one hundred and twenty admired, since the old man played the division, sixty years like a day, going south and north, in order to be chivalrous and righteous. If the world can have one-twelfth of his old man's family, why worry about the restlessness of the rivers and lakes, why worry about the injustice of the court?

It's just that now that Liao Hui and others are present, and he is pretending to be someone else, he can't recognize each other, which makes Lu Chuan a little regretful.

Liao Han nodded and said, "I think so, if you look at the person next to you, he is young, but he is the calmest one on the table." If it weren't for the children of the family, it would be the queen of the famous family. ”

Lu Chuan bowed slightly, his eyes fixed on the wrench in the young man's hand, as if thoughtful.

Liao Hui said with a smile: "If you can catch all these people back, I'm afraid it won't be difficult to get a thousand households." Little Sword never knows, but that's what it means?"

Lu Chuan glanced at him and said lightly: "If Lord Liao has an idea, just grasp the errand and handle the case, I really don't have the courage to do it." ”

Liao Hui smiled, "I thought that if you want to make a move, I can get a piece of the pie, since you don't have an idea, I'll forget it." ”

The two of them chatted for a while, and someone was about to leave, and a guy ran over and invited Lu Chuan to the Tianzi table.

Not to mention, these guys in the gambling house are not very old, but they are well-informed but their eyes are very poisonous, and they can see at a glance that they are afraid that Lu Chuan is the protagonist.

Lu Chuan sat down to the north, with Wang Zi Lao Sword Immortal in his left hand, Zhuang He in his right hand, and the young man on the opposite side.

The young man nodded and smiled as a courtesy, but the old sword fairy frowned, glanced Lu Chuan up and down, and said in a deep voice: "Aren't you in Huzhou? Why did you come to Quzhou again......

Lu Chuan was stunned, "Old man, do you know me?"

When he asked Wang Zi like this, he was a little suspicious, and then he looked carefully at Lu Chuan's appearance, and looked at his Zixiao Silver Moon Sword, no matter how you look at it, it is Lu Chuan.

"You're Lu Chuan?"

"It's down there. ”

"What about Ye Nanyun?"

"Do you know my fifth brother?"

“...... How do you hang out with these people, and ......"

The old man still wanted to go on, but he heard someone next to him coughing and coughing, and the young man said: "Two, it's not that I have to disturb the two of you, it's just that we're at the gambling table, or wait until the gambling is over, how about it?"

Wang Zi stopped talking, Lu Chuan didn't speak either, and Zhuang He started to deal cards as if he hadn't heard them.

There must be hope in everything before there will be disappointment, and the greater the disappointment, the more sad it will be. Gambling money is also a truth, the more you want to win, once you lose, the more unwilling you will be, but if you don't think about winning from the beginning, then gambling money is just a game for you.

Lu Chuan is like this, the reason why he came was actually to meet the mysterious Hu Yan'er, and for some reason, he felt that there was something wrong with this person, a big problem.

But sometimes things just don't go the way people think, and the last thing he wants to win is the one he wins the most.

I don't know if it's a card problem or a person's problem, but his card is always a little higher than the other three.

Take the last handful, everyone's cards are not too good, the young son is a three, a copper hammer, add up to nine points, Wang Zi old man a day card a two four, add up to eighteen points, the dealer a day card a sharp seven, add up to nineteen points, seeing that Wenzi Wuzi is not, everyone is more than the number of points, but Lu Chuan turned over is the ground card with the tip of seven, is also nine points, but it is the card, the ground nine, a little bigger.

The old sword fairy sighed, threw the card and the last silver ticket of one thousand taels onto the stack, got up and left the seat and said, "That's it, your kid is lucky, you can't stop it." After speaking, he glanced at Lu Chuan meaningfully and walked away.

The young man laughed, said a few polite words and left.

Zhuang He took care of himself and packed up his dominoes, waiting for the next table gamblers, the guests did not welcome, the guests did not send, just like a wooden man on the machine, the same impersonal.

Lu Chuan looked at the piles of silver tickets in front of him, just frowned, and nodded roughly, there are more than 100,000 taels!

"Ahem", he walked in front of Zhuang He with a phlegm.

Zhuang He raised his head when he heard the sound, but his face was still the same smile, and his eyes were still exactly the same impersonal.

Lu Chuan threw the silver ticket in front of him and said, "Hu Yan'er gave me 100,000 taels of silver, I don't know what it means?"

Zhuang He was slightly stunned, took out a piece of white paper and a pen from his arms, licked the tip of the pen with his tongue, and began to write on the paper.

Only then did Lu Chuan understand why he didn't speak all the time, because he couldn't speak at all, and he only had half a tongue in his mouth!

After a while, Zhuang He wrote it and handed the paper to Lu Chuan, only to see that it was written in a very beautiful font: "Young heroes have good luck and can't stop it." ”

After reading it, Lu Chuan returned the paper again, but asked, "What's the matter with your tongue?"

Zhuang He smiled and shook his head, and pointed at himself again, probably meaning that he cut off his tongue himself.

Lu Chuan pondered for a moment and said, "This 100,000 taels of silver was given to him by me, tell him that I, Lu Chuan, want to see him." ”

After saying hello to Jiang Bin and Liao Hui, several people left the Light Ink Pavilion.

Jiang Bin was still a little reluctant, because he lost some and was called away just about to return to his roots, while Liao Hui couldn't wait to leave quickly, if he didn't leave, he might have run in vain if he came to Quzhou this time.

Seeing that Lu Chuan's face was not bad, Liao Hui asked, "Xiao Jian definitely won?"

Without waiting for Lu Chuan to speak, Jiang Bin interjected: "My brother gambled for the first time, wouldn't it be good if he didn't lose all his money, and he still won? Zhuang He of this gambling house is too powerful......

Lu Chuan glanced at Jiang Bin and said in a seemingly casual tone: "I did win some, not much, 100,000 taels." ”

"Novices are lucky, it's normal to win, I was lucky when I first learned to gamble, and I won in a few days...... No, brother, how much did you say you won?"

"One hundred thousand taels. ”

"Ten...... 100,000 taels" Jiang Bin swallowed his saliva and said with difficulty, "Brother...... You grabbed it?"

Lu Chuan glanced at him, and said angrily: "I'm only four or five feet away from you, don't you know if I robbed you or not?"

"Yes, I'll serve you one more, let's go back quickly. As he spoke, he tugged on Lu Chuan's sleeve and walked back.

Lu Chuan was pulled back two steps, quickly stopped his figure and asked, "What are you going to do when you go back?"

"Grab money, oh no, gambling money, I tell you, you have to win while your hand is hot, if you miss it, it's gone. ”

Lu Chuan glanced at him with disgust on his face, "Get away, I will lose your money." After saying that, he walked to the front.

Liao Hui walked two steps to Lu Chuan's side, and said with a smile: "Little Jianjue, as the saying goes, one side is divided into half, do you want to ...... these 100,000 taels?"

Lu Chuan said with a smile: "Unfortunately, 100,000 taels, I will give it away in the casino." ”

"Ah...... Gave it away?"

"Lord Liao, what can you do with 100,000 taels? You have to put a long line to catch big fish, I think Hu Yan'er's life is probably worth more than 100,000 taels of silver." ”

"You said that this gambling house was opened by Hu Yan'er, one of the three thieves in Jiangxi?"

"Lord Liao didn't see it?"

"No wonder...... So what are you going to do?"

"I used Lu Chuan's identity to give him 100,000 taels of silver in order to lure him out, Wang Ba can't do anything in the shell, as long as he shows his head, there is a way. ”

"And what if he doesn't take the bait?"

"One hundred thousand taels of silver may not be nothing, but Lu Chuan's face, I bet it is heavier than one hundred thousand taels. ”

"That'...... I say what if...... Xiao Jianjue made a mistake this time?"

Lu Chuan smiled slightly, "It doesn't matter if it's wrong, if he doesn't come to me tonight, don't worry about my unkindness." Lord Liao, I have to ask you to help me when the time comes. ”

Liao Hui nodded yes, but he already had other plans in his heart.

That night, after the third watch, Jiang Bin and Liao Hui, as well as several officers and soldiers of the Quzhou Mansion, brought enough sulfur saltpeter and other fire-causing things, quietly touched the Light Ink Pavilion, and quietly set a fire, a good silk village, a good gambling house, turned into a ruin.

At the same time, the gate of Quzhou City quietly opened a crack, and the two men rode out of the city one after another.

Lu Chuan, Wang Shouren, and the two watched from the city gate, but no one stopped them.

"Senior brother, aren't we going to hide our whereabouts? Wouldn't it be a waste of our efforts to let them out?"

"Someone already recognized me when I was in Hu Yan'er's gambling house today, and it would be a joke to hide my tracks. And the letter I sent to Jin Zhongming was for Chen Danyun, it was the same whether Liao Hui sent someone back or not, and Liu Jin would know the same. As long as Liao Hui didn't leave. What I'm thinking about now is another thing, Old Man Wang Zi said that I should have been in Huzhou and I don't know where I started, I went south from Chuzhou to Hangzhou through Xuancheng, and I have never been to Huzhou, why did he say that I should be in Huzhou? And he also mentioned my fifth brother, could it be that he had seen my fifth brother?"

Wang Shouren groaned: "Do you think it could be that the news of the old man Wang Zi is blocked, and he still doesn't know about Ye Wuxia's acting alone? Therefore, Ye Wuxia showed his whereabouts in Huzhou, and he thought that you were also in Huzhou?"

"Maybe that's ......"

The two chatted and chatted, and Jiang Bin came back.

"Brother, it's done. ”

Lu Chuan turned around and was stunned for a moment, then looked at him fixedly, smiling silently. Wang Shouren pursed his lips and looked the same.

Looking at Jiang Bin like this, he was a little furious, and quickly turned around and looked behind him, there was nothing, and he couldn't help but be even more puzzled, scratched his head and said, "Uh...... Brother, don't worry, I have already thrown off Liao Hui, and the Light Ink Pavilion has also been burned clean...... It's not you who are talking, what are you looking at me doing? Could it be that I still have flowers on my face......"

Seeing that he was in a hurry, Lu Chuan and the two of them were even happier, Wang Shouren couldn't hold it back, and turned his body over, Lu Chuan bit his lip and came over, wiped his sleeve on his face, and sneered: "I asked you to set fire, what, you went to dig coal?" ”

Jiang Bin then understood, smiled, wiped his face with his sleeve again, and asked, "Brother, do you see that it is clean now?"

Lu Chuan nodded and asked, "How many people died?"

"After the burning, I went in and took a closer look, and there was not a single body. ”

"It seems that Hu Xiao'er knows me very well......"

Jiang Bin stood for a long time, and when he saw that Lu Chuan was a little distracted, he went over and put his arm on Wang Shouren's shoulder and asked, "Brother Wang, what are you doing here with my brother?"

Wang Shouren said roughly, Jiang Bin was suddenly a little displeased, glared and complained: "Oh, I said brother, why did you bother to save that Xiong Binan? He has the ability to kill the prefect, but he has no ability to escape, that is because the master is not highly educated, and he was caught and killed by himself, why should we wipe his ass? Inexplicably you were injured, and inexplicably pulled out a Hu Xiaoer, and inexplicably exposed his whereabouts, hehe, it was really a blood mold." I said how could that kid get thrown out of the casino, he's a broom star. ”

Lu Chuan was disturbed by his quarrel, and wanted to scold him, but what he said was also the truth, so in the end he just said: "Be generous." ”

Unexpectedly, Jiang Bin's kid was still energetic, and he said with a stalk on his neck: "Generous, let his father be generous, Lao Tzu is not his father." If you want to give it to me, I will slaughter him when I find him, and Jin Zhongming, it is not a good thing at first glance, and let you save him, if you don't slaughter him, it will be his cheapness!"

Lu Chuan heard the lawsuit, and reached out to knock a chestnut on Jiang Bin's head, and Jiang Bin suddenly became obedient.

"You don't want to kill him, you know how he begged me in the casino......"

As Lu Chuan spoke, he repeated the conversation between him and Xiong Binan during the day, and when he heard that it was for his younger brother, Jiang Bin was silent.

Before he met Lu Chuan, he really didn't know what brotherhood was.

He is the only one seedling, has no brothers and sisters, and he learned art from his master when he was young, and joined the army when he was a teenager. It is said that the friendship between the ranks is very heavy, but he thinks otherwise, he has to rob when eating, and he has to blush when gambling money.

But on the boat that Sword Pavilion went to Langzhou, he saw brotherhood, Ye Nanyun was not incompetent, and he was better than Lu Chuan in terms of martial arts, but Lu Chuan was in front of Ye Nanyun from beginning to end. And Ye Nanyun, facing the boat of brocade guards, did not think of retreating, and swore not to leave Luchuan half a step.

Seriously, if it were him, looking at the dense cluster of arrows, he would have to think about it for himself, as the saying goes, people don't kill for themselves.

But Lu Chuan is not, Ye Nanyun is not.

Suddenly, he began to yearn for himself to have this kind of brother, even one, and it would not be in vain for this life.

Later, outside the city of Hangzhou, he was besieged by the Jinyi guards, and Lu Chuan rescued him. Although Lu Chuan was wary of him at the beginning, he was forced to ask and tempt, which made him very angry. But when he scolded, the kind of eyes that Lu Chuan looked at him, the softness in his eyes, was something he had never seen in anyone's eyes except his father and mother.

From that moment on, he wanted to stay by Lu Chuan's side, no matter what Lu Chuan treated him, he wanted to treat Lu Chuan as a brother and a brother.

Wang Shouren stood next to him a little embarrassed, he couldn't understand this, in the final analysis, he was a scholar, an official, what he could understand was the same way, and everyone in the same way was a brother.

Lu Chuan has the heart to help the world, and he can still be counted as a fellow Taoist, Jiang Bin, the rivers and lakes are reckless, and the people are small, so forget it.

Therefore, he coughed and changed the topic and said, "Senior brother, there is something unknown about the foolish brother. ”

"Oh, brother, please speak. ”

"Brother Fool is curious about what is written in that letter you sent to Jin Zhongming, how can you get Jin Yiwei to speak for him? Could it be that you really know Chen Danyun?"

Lu Chuan laughed and said, "Actually, that letter was a joke, I just told Chen Danyun that I saved it." ”

Wang Shouren just frowned, "Could it be that the two letters you sent to Minglimen are also like this?"

"Exactly. ”

"You...... What's the ...... about this?"
