The Adventure of Yellow Springs Chapter 62 Lin Lu returns
"Don't worry, don't worry! Kwok Kee Casino will only accept bets a month before the start of the game. Next, I will teach you some betting experience to ensure that you have a profit. The monk surnamed Ren said steadily.
"Please give me advice!" Xiao Qian said in a very respectful tone.
"This trick for my brother is called betting on the underdog with the crowd! That is, following everyone, betting more with low odds and less betting with high odds. ”
"Why is that?" the little money was confused.
"Hehe, follow everyone, the chance of making mistakes is small, and you can earn ghost stones, but the profit will not be too high. And every time there is a competition, there will inevitably be some accidents, and some unpopular disciples may end up like dark horses and achieve unexpected results. Therefore, we also need to place a little bet on the disciples with high odds, so that they will not lose too much, and if they bet right, they will earn more than other bets. ”
"High! It's really high! Little brother respects Brother Ren's cup!".
Then the two ghosts exchanged betting experiences there.
In the box here, Zhou Xiang and the second daughter listened to the corner for a long time, and they also felt that they had gained a lot.
"Let's go bet too!" Lan Ling was not interested in the Nine Great Families, but he was very confident that Lin Lu would be the first.
Zhou Xiang looked at Lin Lu and echoed: "Yes, we will also bet at that time, and we will bet on Xiaolu first!"
"Find the fat prince to borrow it!" Lan Ling smiled evilly.
"You're just so sure I can take the first place?" Lin Lu smiled slightly, "I myself have no confidence that I can enter the top ten after four rounds of competition." ”
"We are sure!" Zhou Xiang and Lan Ling said loudly!
Probably because they were so loud that they didn't even block the ban and were heard by the next door.
"Don't worry about them! Recently, there have been some dirt buns in the imperial capital who want to make a lot of money, and they still want to make a fortune without inside information, so let's daydream about it. Let's talk!" Ren Ghost said disdainfully, and then the two ghosts muttered again.
Zhou Xiang and the others settled the accounts and walked around for a long time before returning to the other palace. Probably affected by the conversation between the two ghosts, Lin Lu locked himself in the room as soon as he returned to the guest room and began to work hard, and the Zhou Xiang brothers and sisters had nothing to do, so they began to meditate and practice after shopping for a few days.
On this day, Lin Lu got the news that the Lin family team participating in Dabi had arrived in the imperial capital, and heard that his father Lin Xian and younger brother Lin Jiang also came with the team, so he asked Zhou Xiang and Lan Ling to go to the Lin family's station.
Everyone was about to set off, the fat man and Chen Yue'e just came back from the imperial palace, and they also had to go with them, plus the guards specially prepared by the ghost emperor for the fat man, and the group came to the Lin family's station.
This team startled the Lin family guards guarding the door, and only when they recognized Lin Lu did they relax and look surprised: "Lin Lu! Am I not dazzled? Where have you been all these years? Your parents are worried about you to death, if it weren't for the fact that the soul lamp in the family is still on, they still think you have been killed! It's good to come back, I'll report to the patriarch immediately!" After saying that, the guards hurriedly ran towards the depths of the station.
In the hall of the Lin family's residence, the patriarch Lin You was talking with the two elders who led the team: "The Lin family is not expected to achieve any good rankings this time, I think our ancestors also had a ghost-eyed immortal master, who ever wanted to pass it on to me A generation is not as good as a generation, in recent decades of competitions, the best result of our Lin family is only the twenty-fifth place achieved by Xiao Lu, this child." But three years ago, Xiao Lu disappeared inexplicably, and no one in the younger generation of the family can afford to support the beam, it is estimated that this time the competition will be even more unbearable, and even the top fifty will not enter, if this continues, I am afraid that the Lin family will be the first to be removed from the nine families, which makes the old man how to meet the ancestors of the Lin family in the future!"
An elder sitting on the left-hand side persuaded: "The patriarch doesn't need to blame himself too much, you have worked hard for the family's affairs over the years, everyone sees it, Dabi's defeat is not your responsibility alone, we are also at fault!"
The three ghosts were sighing, but when they saw a guard hurriedly running in outside, Lin You frowned and scolded, "What's the alarm?"
The guard hurriedly saluted: "Patriarch, elder, Lin Lu is back and is waiting outside the door!"
"What!" Lin You was taken aback, and then overjoyed, "Hurry up, let her in, and by the way, inform Lin Xian and Lin Jiang, and say that his daughter is back." ”
"Okay! Okay! This time the Lin family will not lose too ugly. You say, what has Xiao Lu been hiding all these years? I hope to have some adventures! This child is something I watched grow up, although she is a female baby, but she is smart and clever, and can endure hardships, if it weren't for the patriarch's position to be passed on to men and women, I would have to train her as a future patriarch!" Lin You was a little incoherent, but the joy between the corners of his eyebrows couldn't be hidden. The Lin family has not been as good as the generation over the years, and finally one Lin Lu has been produced, and the rest are all mediocre talents, but Lin Lu disappeared inexplicably a few years ago. Lin You had specially sent the monks of the clan to the netherworld area to investigate, but found nothing, if it weren't for the soul lamp in the clan still on, he would have thought that this child had been killed! This big competition, the Cao family's soul eye technique came with great momentum, and the rest of the families were overwhelmed, the strength of the Lin family was already at the bottom of the nine great families, if it weren't for the fact that there was a Chang family with worse overall strength being the first, I'm afraid Lin You wouldn't want to live. Patriarch Lin always felt that the family's defeat was imminent, but he didn't expect that before signing up this time, Lin Lu actually came back, and he finally saw some hope in his heart, and this time the family's results would not be at the bottom.
After a while, Lin Lu took Zhou Xiang and others into the hall, and she first saluted the patriarch and the two leading elders, "Good patriarch, good two elders." ”
"Hurry up, hurry up, Xiao Lu doesn't have to be polite! Where have you been all these years? Do you know how worried the patriarch and your parents are, especially your mother, whose hair is gray!" The elder sitting at the head of the right said in a loud voice.
Hearing the words parents, Lin Lu's eyes moistened, and her voice was a little choked.
"It's a long story! Xiao Lu did almost encounter an accident back then, and she will explain it to the patriarch and elders in detail later. First of all, I would like to introduce you to my friends. Lin Lu had tears in her eyes.
After speaking, he introduced Lin You and the two elders to Zhou Xiang and others, and introduced Zhou Xiang and the fat man and the other ghosts to the patriarch and the two elders, and heard that the fat man was actually the crown prince of the Netherworld, Lin You and the two elders hurriedly got up and saluted.
As soon as the introduction was finished, two ghosts hurriedly walked in outside the hall, the one in front had some gray hair, and the one in the back was very young, the two ghosts looked a little similar to Lin Lu between their eyebrows and eyes, they stared at Lin Lu as soon as they entered the door, and then the old ghost staggered over, grabbed Lin Lu's arm, and waited until he saw that Lin Lu was not injured, but he let go and said sharply: "You unfilial daughter! Where have you died all these years, causing your mother to worry day and night!"
Lin Lu hurriedly knelt down: "Father, the child did have unspeakable secrets back then, and he was really forced to do so. ”
Seeing this, Zhou Xiang and the fat man knew that it was the time for the Lin clan to deal with family affairs, so they hurriedly and quietly withdrew from the hall, and an elder of the Lin family took them to another hospitality hall outside to settle down.
The fat man and Zhou Xiang talked for a long time, while Chen Yue'e grabbed Lan Ling, took out her new jewelry, and talked about what she had seen and heard in the imperial palace. Zhou Xiang suddenly remembered something: "Fatty, tell you something, lend me some ghost stones!"
"What?" the fat man thought he had misheard, "Do you Terran monks want ghost stones? Do you want to buy something? Forget it, I won't ask, just ask as much as you want!"
"What can I buy? It's just that I heard that you can bet on this big game, so I'm going to borrow some ghost stones from you to gamble. I'm especially optimistic about Xiaolu. Zhou Xiang explained.
Hearing that Zhou Xiang and they were going to bet, the fat man's eyes immediately lit up, and he shouted that he was going too, and he must be called when the time came, otherwise the ghost stone would not be borrowed.
They chatted for almost an hour before the elder Lin family invited everyone to the council hall again.
It was the patriarch Lin You who personally entertained them, and introduced the two ghost cultivators to everyone, one was Lin Lu's father Lin Xian, and the other was Lin Lu's younger brother Lin Jiang.
On behalf of the Lin family, Lin You expressed his gratitude to the fat man and the Zhou Xiang brothers and sisters: "Listen to Xiaolu, thanks to your friends for your help to her these days, the old man on behalf of the Lin family would like to express his gratitude to everyone! You are not only Xiaolu's friends, but also the old man's nephews, here is like your own home, don't be polite." ”
Father Lin was also very grateful to everyone, and Lin Jiang wanted to give them a big gift, but he was resolutely supported by Zhou Xiang and the fat man.
After chatting for a while, Zhou Xiang and the fat man said goodbye and left, while Lin Lu stayed in the family to continue to practice hard, especially the jade slips that had so many Five Elements Ghost Saints, it took a lot of time and energy to master them all.
After another two days, the much-anticipated Cao family also arrived in the imperial capital. Different from the low-key of the Lin family, the Cao family's entry into Beijing this time was valued by the Ghost Emperor, and a special ghost official was sent to greet him, and the Cao family was arranged to live in the Ghost Emperor's villa outside the city. The Sun family, the Lin family and other families also went to visit regardless of whether they wanted to or not, and the prestige of the Cao family reached the extreme for a while.
When the entire imperial capital was boiling for the arrival of the Cao family, in another family residence in the imperial capital, Wang Jian, the current patriarch of the Wang family, asked an elder, "How did you do it?"
