1. Huang Shilang
"Waiba!
"Four! All out of four! Four o'clock!"
"Open big, open big!"
A pair of red eyes stared at the upside-down wine cup on the table, and the gamblers shouted hoarsely beside them, as if raising their voices would affect the number of dice in it.
There was only one young man with his arms crossed, there was no greed in his eyes, and the corners of his mouth were slightly ridiculed, and he stood in the crowd with a smile, always maintaining a very calm attitude.
Seeing that no one was betting any more, the dealer opened the cup, glanced at it, and shouted:
"Three, five, two, ten o'clock!"
The casino suddenly burst into shouts, the winners were elated, and the losers were scolded. The dealer was obviously a veteran, and I saw that he was very skilled in sweeping the silver money in front of the loser into his pocket, and then took out the silver ingot and copper money according to the odds and put it in front of the winner, but in the meantime he suddenly raised his head and smiled at the young man:
"The fourth brother is very capable, and this time I heard another two points. ”
"Hehe, luck, luck. ”
Huang Xu, the fourth elder of the Huang family, responded with a smile, a small pile of silver and copper coins had been piled up in front of him, and this time some more were added - Huang Xu played guessing points, that is, betting that one of the three dice was the number he guessed, and the odds were one to one. Although the number is not much, and the wins and losses are not big each time, Huang Xu guessed quite accurately, and there are always six or seven out of ten that can guess the number of points he wants.
So seeing that the silver in front of him gradually increased, of course, this small amount of casino is not enough to put in his eyes, and a few bodyguards and thugs who watched the scene only glanced at Huang Xu a few more times, and felt that this kid's ability to "listen to the sound discernment" was not bad.
- Every time the dealer shakes the wine cup, Huang Xu is always listening, obviously relying on his sense of hearing to judge the number of dice, which is not uncommon in the rivers and lakes, and it is also a gambling method recognized by the casino. It is said that there are experts who can hear the number of six dice at the same time. Generally speaking, when you encounter this kind of person, as long as you don't win too hard, a casino with a certain grade will admit it, after all, you are willing to gamble and lose. There are masters in all walks of life, and masters will be respected wherever they go.
Although the kid in front of him is still quite tender, he can only listen to one at a time and often makes mistakes, but the dealer does not dare to slack off, and shakes the wine cup again when he shakes his spirit, even jumping, as if he is dancing, and waving the wine cup in his hand into a whirlwind, the three bone dice in it sound together, if you use more force, I am afraid it will be broken.
When the dealer put the wine cup on the table and looked at Huang Xu with a challenging gaze, the latter really showed a little embarrassed smile and casually reported three, the dealer opened the cup, there were no three points in it, and there was a commotion around him, and the dealer finally breathed a sigh of relief when he took the bet from Huang Xu.
But he didn't know that Huang Xu's palm shrunk in his sleeve had silently bent his thumb and made a "four" gesture before the cup was opened just now, and when the wine cup was opened, there was a dice inside that was four points up.
Huang Xu secretly clenched his fists, and was about to make the next round of attempts, when suddenly someone outside hurriedly ran in and shouted:
"Huang Shilang, your third immortal brother is back!
"What?!"
Huang Xu immediately raised his head, his face full of surprise, and then pulled his legs and was about to leave. There was a familiar gambler next to him and quickly reminded him:
"Fourth brother, you haven't taken the money yet!"
Huang Xu didn't even look back, and waved his hand very chicly:
"Have a cup of tea, everyone. ”
"Okay!"
"Fourth brother is righteous!"
There was a sound of praise around him, but Huang Xu had already run away.
............
Huang Xu hurriedly ran through the street, and when he passed a narrow alley, he suddenly stopped-a big man walked out of the alley, blocking his way, and he sneered:
"Huang Laosi, where are you going to run so fast?"
Huang Xu frowned slightly, and immediately stepped back under his feet, but at the same time said with a calm smile in his mouth:
"Eh, it's Brother Mengzi of Dongcheng, disrespectful and disrespectful...... Brother, I'm a little ahead of time, next time I'll have tea together. ”
As he spoke, he turned around and retreated, but two people immediately turned out of the alley behind him, blocking his back path. On the front, four or five people followed behind the "fierce brother", including people on the roofs on both sides, completely forming a situation of encirclement.
"Hey, hey, Huang Laosi, you kid has always been treacherous and slippery, it's really not easy to block you. I, Zhao Dameng, am also a character in this Baonan City, and it is really difficult to talk to you and chat for a while. ”
Huang Xu's eyes shrank, and he suddenly asked:
"Did you fake the news that my third brother was coming home?"
Zhao Dameng was stunned:
"What kind of fake news? Lao Tzu sent someone to keep an eye on you for several days...... Haha! Understood, cunning boy, you want to use your third brother who cultivates on the Immortal Mountain to scare us? Do you think our heroes in Dongcheng are all scared?"
After a pause, he added:
"Don't talk nonsense, Huang Shilang, we don't want to do anything to you. It's still the same sentence from last time - let our people come to the south of the city to collect some filial piety, and then we will share it with you. Nancheng Huang Shilang's reputation, we won't spoil you. You don't accept it yourself, it's useless to dominate this piece of fertile land!"
Huang Xu didn't care about what he said at all, he just sighed with relief:
"If only it wasn't fake news...... Boss Zhao, my third brother is back, I really don't have time to talk to you now, what do you have to say, let's talk next time, how about it?"
That Zhao Dameng spat on the ground and said angrily:
"Don't fuck it, you kid has to give a letter today. Ever since your family moved to this Baonan City, I've always heard people blow your third brother loudly, but after so many years, I haven't seen a living ...... Whether it's true or not, Lao Tzu doesn't have time to tell the difference!"
Hearing his insulting words and his family, Huang Xu's face suddenly turned cold. And beside Zhao Dameng, a little man with a more flexible gaze quietly pulled his sleeve:
"Boss, I heard that the government has sent all the candidate teenagers from all over the country to the pickaxe capital, and it will not be long before the gate of heaven will be opened to climb the immortal mountain. In the last few days, it seems that it is really the time when the immortals on the fairy mountain descend to earth. ”
The voice was very soft, but Zhao Dameng trembled slightly, the corners of his mouth moved slightly, although the expression on his face was still very hard, the tone in his mouth was not a little softer:
"Huang Si, let's not talk about those who don't, or the most real--I'm not afraid to tell you: we are Master Xiong's people. Who is behind Master Xiong, you should have heard of it. Don't look at your father as a petty official in the county government, compared to the one behind Master Xiong, he is nothing. ”
"There are the most shops in Nancheng, and they collect thousands of dollars a year, which is to pluck a hair from those profiteers. If you are willing to cooperate, Master Xiong promised to let you take care of this piece. If not...... Hmph, the end of blocking people's money, you Huang Si shouldn't have thought of it, right?"
Huang Xu didn't react to his threats and temptations, he waited patiently for Zhao Dameng to finish speaking, and at the same time quietly patrolled with the corner of his eye, and finally found a way out for him.
"Uh-huh, that's a good point. Boss Zhao, let's talk next time. ”
As he spoke, Huang Xu turned over and jumped up, climbed onto the eaves next to him, and jumped on the roof - although there were people on it, after all, the number was the least, and it was a more suitable breakthrough point.
Boss Zhao and his subordinates immediately became noisy.
"Catch him!"
"This kid is so good!"
In the alley, there was chaos.
