Section 28 Try your luck
The dealer was nervous, kept glancing at the big man with his eyes, and stopped talking, the latter stood beside her, pressed his big hand on the gambling table, glanced at the small mountain of bets, and said angrily: "Let's go." ”
The dealer got the backbone, relieved, flicked his fingers, and the bamboo stick jumped out of the stick holder and fell on the table, which was a short stick, causing a sigh of regret.
Wei Qiqi clapped his hands and greeted Bian Ci, "Lost, let's go." ”
The big man said: "Slow down, do you have time to have a cup of tea?"
Wei Qiqi waited for this sentence, and naturally agreed.
The four of them bypassed a landscape screen, stepped out of the door, walked through the patio, and came to the inner hall to sit down. A few enchanting female ghosts served tea, twisted their waists, came and went, and the corners of her eyes and eyebrows were very seductive, Bian Ci couldn't help but flatten her mouth, and she was very disdainful.
After a few greetings, I cut to the chase. The big man called himself Xu Hu, a person from Dongming, in charge of the kitchen, the quality warehouse, the gambling house and the Qinglou in the inner city, Wei Qiqi asked him if he was the "Ghost King", Xu Hu smiled and shook his head, admitting that he was just a thug under the command of the Ghost King.
"Thug" Yunyun should be a humble word, and he can "be in charge of the kitchens, quality warehouses, gambling houses and green buildings in the inner city", he is by no means an idle character, he must be the henchman of the ghost king. Xu Hu seemed to see through his thoughts, pulled the corners of his mouth and smiled slightly, and said proudly: "Xu is not boasting, the number one fighter under the command of the Ghost King." ”
Bian Ciqiang couldn't help laughing, looked down at the tea, the color was light black, like washing inkstones, clear soup and little water, and he could see the figure of a person, and he couldn't find half a tea leaf. The things offered by the ghosts, where did she dare to drink, only glanced at it a few times, then sat upright, listening to the two of them chatting sentence by sentence, first Wei Qiqi said some customs of the Western Regions, and then Xu Hu said some customs of Dongming City, the two seemed to exchange something tacitly, tacitly.
In Wei Seventeen, it is to spy on the intelligence of Dongming City, but in Xu Hu, he simply wants to know how the outside world is, talking about loneliness, whether it is a flower and a grass, or a drink and a food, it all brings up the memories of the past and makes him sigh.
Wei Qiqi sensed something and asked tentatively, "Why doesn't Brother Xu go out of the city for a visit?"
Xu Hu was silent for a moment, and said with a wry smile: "I have been trapped in a ghost city for a long time, and I don't want to do it in the end, but this body has turned into a ghost thing, and I can't leave Dongming City." He didn't want to talk any more, so he casually diverted the topic, talked to him about the gambling house, and invited him to go shopping again.
Wei Qiqi was a little moved, and in a blink of an eye, he saw that Bian Ci's face was slightly pale, restless, obviously stained by yin qi, and quite uncomfortable, so he politely declined at the moment, said goodbye, and left with the two sisters.
Xu Ju didn't keep it, gave him a bag of paper money, and told him that there were good goods in "Shan Ze Ruyi", so he might as well try his luck.
Try your luck, why not your eyes, but your luck? Wei Qiqi didn't understand a little.
The enchanting female ghost led the three of them out of the gambling house through the side door, and a full moon hung in the night sky. "The first thug under the command of the Ghost King" is too strong, the yin qi overflows, and the hall is full of cold, Bian Ci's physique is far inferior to Wei Qiqi and Bian Ya, so she can only hold on, and finally leave the bad land, she breathed a long sigh of relief, took out a porcelain bottle from her sleeve, closed it in the palm of her hand, poured out three pills and swallowed it in her stomach, dispelling the chill in her body.
Wei Qiqi touched her forehead and said, "Are you okay?"
Bian Ci smiled dumbly, "It's okay, it's not a fever...... Let's go, go to 'Yamazawa Ruyi' to see, I'm going to leave early tomorrow morning, it's useless to keep the paper money in the ghost town, it's better to spend it. ”
She was so well-behaved, Wei Qiqi thought so, and immediately led Bian Ya along the street, all the way to "Shan Ze Ruyi". Stepping into the kitchen, the layout is the same as that of Liantao City, but the ghost who is guarding behind the counter is a ghost, with an expressionless face, looking at the three people in a daze, without the consciousness that a businessman should have.
On the shelves, there are wooden boxes of different sizes, clearly marked with prices, different prices and cheapness, but I don't know what it is, I asked the ghost of the shopkeeper, only to reply with a wooden reply, "Spend money to buy, go and figure it out." ”
"Let's take a look. ”
"Spend money to buy it, and figure it out for yourself. ”
Wei Qiqi finally understood what Xu Hu meant, the wanton kitchen in Dongming City is another kind of gamble, and if you make a profit, you only look at your luck, and it has nothing to do with your vision.
He looked intently, and those large and small wooden boxes were made of something, and they did not leak the slightest breath, and they could not tell the difference. This is a game to test people, but Wei Qiqi didn't bother to think about it, so he simply poured the bag that Xu Ju gave him, piled up a bundle of paper money on the counter, and said magnificently: "Bring the most expensive one." ”
The ghost of the shopkeeper saw that his eyes were straight, nodded again and again, counted carefully, took off two wooden boxes from the top of the shelf, one large and one small, full of dust, and carefully pushed him to him, and said: "The silver goods are not returned." ”
Wei Qiqi didn't inspect the goods, put it in his sleeve, turned around and left.
It was late at night, and the ghosts in the streets and alleys were gathering more and more, Wei Qiqi and the other three returned to the inn and went back to their rooms to rest.
Just took out the wooden box and wiped off the dust, there was a slight sound of footsteps outside the door, and he hesitated and knocked his fingers a few times, pushed open a crack, and looked at the probe.
Wei Qiqi beckoned to her, "Come in." ”
Bian Ci stuck out his tongue, squeezed into the house sideways, covered the door, walked to Wei Qiqi's side, pinched the corner of his clothes and said, "I can't sleep, I want to see what you bought." ”
"I haven't opened the treasure yet. Wei Qiqi stretched out his hand to wrap his arms around her waist, put her on his legs, put her around her neck, and took a deep breath of the woman's body fragrance.
Bian Ci exclaimed, then pressed his mouth, his face flushed, but he didn't refuse very much.
"Dongming City is your Uncle Chu's experimental field, the gambling house, the Qinglou, and these wooden boxes that gamble will one day become a reality. ”
The hot air sprayed up his neck in bursts, and Bian Ci's body was a little weak, and he couldn't speak. Wei Qiqi stroked her waist, stretched out her arm, picked up the small wooden box, turned it over and over to look at it, and with a slight force, the wooden box broke in hand.
"What is it?" Bian Ci snorted heavily, confused.
"A note. Wei XVII unfolded the note, only to see two bean-sized ink characters written on it, Chenghui.
Cheng Hui, interesting, full of bad taste! Wei Qiqi laughed, pinched it casually, and crumpled the note into crumbs.
Bian Ci leaned on his arms, as if he had no bones, and whispered, "Fooled?"
"No, it's just that my luck isn't good. Wei Qihun didn't care, casually crushed another larger wooden box, this time luck was good, there was a bracelet lying quietly in the wooden box, bronze and silver, simple to rough, simple to cold, not to mention carving, even the decoration did not have a penny.
Under the bracelet, there is a note pressed, which is still the size of a bean in ink, with the words "storage bracelet" written, and the handwriting is the same as "Chenghui".
Wei Qiqi slightly injected the demon yuan, his mind sank into the storage bracelet, and inspected one or two, it was empty, about the size of a room, and it was best to store sundries. He originally had a two-phase ring, which he was familiar with, and he has been stunned since he exploded, and now he has this storage bracelet, which is exactly what he wants, but the man wears such a bracelet on his hand, will it look girly?
Bian Ci took the bracelet, put it on his wrist for him, took his big hand and looked at it, and said with a smile: "Not bad, quite a match." "The simple and simple style is in harmony with the dark and strong arms, and there is a rugged beauty that makes people palpitate.
Listening to her words, Wei Qiqi no longer took off the bracelet, and he whispered in Bian Ci's ear: "This is an unexpected joy, you are here, it is a joy to be happy......"
Bian Ci threw himself into his arms, leaving all his worries and concerns behind, and at this moment, his little heart was completely occupied by this man. R1058
