Section 6 Rogue Gambling
Between the large bucket and the mountain spring, between the pots and pans and the waste of rice, he incarnated as the Bone Saint of Gu Sheng, and before he knew it, he had spent three months in the Wuwei Sword Sect. In the past three months, he has become accustomed to the rhythm of life here, he is dressed in coarse cloth and green clothes, eats simple food, and works hard, and has completely changed from the first person in the Demon Dao to a servant of the Wuwei Sword Sect. The only thing that is out of tune with everyone is that he often naps, that is, he is confused. Gu Sheng has no quarrel with the world and no attachment to others, although he is silent, but he is not isolated from everyone. After a long time, he has a nickname: Gu Mi. Because he often falls asleep before he knows it!
Once, on the way to carry water, he actually snored while walking! Since then, Lu Tao has taken the lead, and the nickname of Gu Confused has spread.
Zhu Wuzhao became his closest person, this guy's father was in business, and it was said that the industry was very large, and the entire continent under the mountain had the semicolon of their shop. He also inherited the mantle of his father—as he himself said, he would never do anything at a loss! There is nothing cheap to take advantage of, and he will never do it.
The Nine Present Dao Chiefs couldn't run to the place where the servants lived every day, so they could only occasionally use an invisibility spell to take a look, or call the unknown person in charge of managing the servants to ask. The first time he went, he was really excited for a while, and he thought that the head master was going to teach him some profound tricks, and he finally came out of it. But after coming back, I was depressed for a few days, but I recovered after a few days, and I still diligently did morning and evening classes every day. The Bone Saint also saw that in the unknown body, there was no real power at all, and any heaven and earth vitality, no matter how huge it was, it was impossible to stay in a system like him, at most, it was just a "visit here".
He was surprised by the reward that Daoist Jiuxian received, and he even didn't believe it, but since he went to see it quietly by himself and found that Gu Sheng was indeed cooking and unknowingly fell asleep by the stove while steaming a pot of rice, he was also sure that Gu Sheng had really become a sleepy worm!
Gu Wuxi received the report, stroked his beard and thought for a long time, and suddenly became happy: "That's it! The ancestor gave us a confused person who is not a handsome, I don't know what it means? Let it be......" Since then, Gu Sheng has never received special care from the master.
There were two stacks of copper coins on the table, each with a dozen pieces, and there was a small ant in the two stacks of copper coins. The little ant swayed his head from side to side, not knowing which direction to crawl in. There was a circle of people sitting around the table, staring with bated breath, their eyes wide as they stared at the little ants on the table. Under the gaze of so many people, the ants didn't seem to be able to walk, and they actually crawled there, but their two tentacles dangled around, but they didn't climb forward a single step.
The two people who sat at the front and were also the most nervous were Zhu Wuzhao and Lu Tao. At this moment, Gu Sheng was already sitting on the edge of the bed in a daze. It's strange for him to be a sleeper, he can't hear what many people say, and he doesn't notice anything, but he doesn't pull down any of the really important words, important things, and he knows them all.
Zhu Wuliang's eyes were bloodshot, and his lips moved slightly, as if he was going to cast some curse. His actions were really effective, the little ant suddenly started to move, and rushed straight over with his head down, but not at his side, but at Lu Tao's side.
Zhu Wuzhao's face became more and more ugly, and Lu Tao couldn't hide the joy in his expression. Finally, the tentacles of the ants touched the stack of copper coins on Lu Tao's side, and Lu Tao cheered: "I won again!" stretched out his big hand and swept it on the table, and the two stacks of copper coins on the table fell into his arms. It turned out to be a gamble.
These servants also have their own wages, and they work here, although they don't have to get much in the restaurants down the hill, but they don't have much to lose. Cultivators, especially those like the Wuwei Sword Sect, still have some minds. These servants may not all be able to become subordinates, so their work also has a price, and once they cannot be chosen, they will not be without food and clothing when they come down the mountain.
The people who went down the mountain were already top masters in the martial arts of the mortal realm, but no one had ever known their origins, and if there were people who leaked, there would naturally be a master from the cultivation realm to deal with it.
As for how the Wuwei Sword Sect could have such money to pay their wages, is this, every once in a while, some uncles in the sect will go out to wander and pick up those rich businessmen, kings and nobles who have repeatedly done good deeds and are riddled with diseases, and they will naturally be rewarded. Therefore, the expenses of the Wuwei Sword Sect are huge, so that they will not be tight.
These servants were useless when they took the money, how could they be forced to go down the mountain, they were already masters of one side, and they were worried that they would not have anything to eat?
Zhu Wuzhao has lost twelve in a row, and all his savings have been lost. He looked at the happy Lu Tao, and said a little embarrassedly: "Senior Brother Lu, can you borrow me a little first?" Lu Tao rolled his eyes: "No!" Zhu Wuzhao was very embarrassed: "But, how can I buy wine when I have no money, you know ......" Zhu Wuzhao is not happy with alcohol, and he will secretly go down the mountain to buy wine after a while.
Lu Tao said: "If you don't have any money, you can win it back." Zhu Wuzhao made a bitter face: "I don't even have the capital to gamble." "Who said no?" Lu Tao reminded him: "Don't you still have a moving jade talisman?" Zhu Wuzhao suddenly felt embarrassed: "This ......"
Lu Tao raised his eyelids: "Don't gamble, forget it." Zhu Wuzhao hurriedly grabbed him: "Bet, gamble! Lao Tzu is out of the way!" He was ruthless, took out the white jade talisman, and slapped it on the table with a bang: "How much is it?"
This stumped everyone, everyone, you look at me, I look at you, no one squeaked. It's impossible to know how much such a rare jade talisman is worth. Lu Tao thought for a while, gritted his teeth and said, "One hundred wen!" Zhu Wuzhao snorted in his nostrils and took the jade talisman back. Lu Tao immediately said: "Two hundred Wen!" "Four hundred Wen, one point is a lot, otherwise it will be pulled down!"
"Okay! 400 wen is 400 wen!" Lu Tao seemed to be eager to get the jade talisman, and gritted his teeth and staked all his belongings. "Wait a minute. He rushed out and took out the two hundred wen he had accumulated on weekdays from under his bed, plus the two hundred wen he had won today, which was exactly four hundred.
All of a sudden, the four hundred copper coins that jingled were piled up on the table. Just as Zhu Wuzhao put the jade talisman on the table, he turned his elbow and knocked over a water bowl on the table with a clatter, and the full bowl of water was all spilled on the table, flowing everywhere, and the copper coins were also wet.
Zhu Wuzhao hurriedly apologized: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, Senior Brother Lu ......" Lu Tao was furious: "Who put this here, I didn't have it just now...... Zhu Wuzhao said: "It's okay, wipe the table dry, let's start immediately." "No!" Lu Tao said, "Wait until I dry the copper coins." "No, it's wet, it's wet, it's okay." But Lu Tao insisted: "No!" He must have dried the copper coins before starting. Zhu Wuzhao squinted at him: "Senior brother, aren't all dry and wet the same copper coins, how can there be any difference?" Lu Tao's expression became unnatural: "What's the difference...... he said reluctantly: "Okay, you say let's start at the beginning." ”
Immediately, a junior brother caught an ant and put it between the pile of copper coins and the jade talisman, the ant turned around twice, and crashed into the jade talisman headlong! Zhu Wuzhao jumped up with a cheer: "Haha, I won!" Lu Tao's face was extremely ugly, he originally wanted to win his jade talisman, but he didn't expect to put his old book into it.
He angrily kicked off the chair and walked out, and Zhu Wuzhao laughed proudly behind him.
In the afternoon, Zhu Wuzhao remembered the gambling game in the morning, and couldn't help grinning. He reached out and bumped into Gu Sheng, who was about to fall asleep next to him: "Do you know why I can win?" Gu Sheng yawned and shook his head. Zhu Wuzhao said: "I'll only tell you one person, don't tell others." Gu Sheng nodded, this head, seeing the chick pecking rice, his head getting lower and lower, and he was about to fall asleep. Zhu Wuzhao slapped him on the shoulder fiercely: "Spirit! Do you know why Lu Tao has been able to win at the beginning? Because the copper coin at the bottom is smeared with honey, so the ants always crawl over." It's not that I don't know, I deliberately let him win, and finally used the jade talisman to yin him, he thought I was the same as others, I was stupid, and I couldn't see his tricks, haha...... "Finally, he deliberately knocked over the water bowl and washed off all the honey on the copper coin, and he himself touched a layer of honey under the jade talisman."
However, it didn't take long for Lu Tao to figure it out, and the anger in his heart could naturally be imagined. He is the kind of man who takes the lead in deceit, but he cannot allow others to do the same thing as him. Since then, the three have formed a grudge, and Lu Tao regards these two as thorns in the flesh. On the first day Gu Sheng came, he didn't like it, and now he hates Zhu Wuzhao again.
