Chapter 24: Pretending to be forced to slap in the face
Early the next morning, the two of them simply ate some dry food, and Lu'er was busy putting on makeup for himself and Fang Zhongjin.
Lu'er looked at Fang Zhongjin's good-looking face and sighed in her heart: It is simple to draw ordinary people beautifully, but it is a pity to draw Brother Jin more ordinary. She hurriedly went down a few strokes, and Fang Zhongjin looked like the son of an ordinary family.
After the two finished putting on makeup, Fang Zhongjin was planning to pack up and go. Lu'er said, "Slow down Brother Jin." I'm afraid it will take us a month to go, right? We can't live in a broken temple every time and again. But I still have more than fifty taels of silver. I'm afraid I won't be able to hold on to Ninghai. ”
Fang Zhongjin's face turned red and said, "Don't worry, I'll look for some town here, I'll go to the town to find an errand and work for a month in advance, and then look for errands while walking." You can always get to Ninghai. ”
Lu'er shook his head and smiled: "The town is to be found, but there is no need to look for errands." That's too slow to get money, look at me. ”
The two of them found a small town all the way to a small town called Zhao's house. The town is not big, but it is the closest to the capital, and the army did not pass through here during the war a while ago, so it is relatively peaceful compared to other places.
When he arrived in the town, Lu'er asked where there was a gambling house, so he pulled Fang Zhongjin and walked towards the gambling house. The name of the gambling house is "Funnel Casino". The boss thinks that it means to let the gambler make a lot of money and leak a little money.
Because it was still early, there were not many people in the gambling house, and they got together to bet on the size and pai gow. The windows in the gambling house are not open all year round, the light is very dim, and there are a few oil lamps lit during the day. And because there is a smoke house behind it, it is always smoky. Fang Zhongjin and Lu'er pushed the door in, and everyone looked up and saw a pair of handsome young men and women, and everyone said in their hearts: "The sheep is here." Then they all bowed their heads and went to the things in their hands.
Lu'er whispered in Fang Zhongjin's ear: "Wait a minute, you go to bet on the size, remember that if I pull the corner of your clothes, you will bet big, and if you pull the corners of your clothes twice, you will bet small." ”
Fang Zhongjin saw that she was confident, and knew that she always had strange methods, so he found the table with the size of the gambling according to his words. He took out a penny and put it on the table, but did not place a bet.
No one cared about this young man who was willing to give only a penny. The dealer shook the sieve cup and skillfully shouted to buy and leave. The remaining two or three gamblers have big pressure and small ones. The dealer is a veteran for many years, and his posture in his hands is no different from that of a normal cup, but he has already used his dark energy. At this time, looking at the money and silver that had been pressed on the field, I was sure in my heart. His eyebrows soothed, and he slanted the corners of his mouth and smiled contemptuously.
Fang Zhongjin felt that the corner of his clothes was gently pulled twice, and he pressed a penny of silver on the "small". After a while, I opened the cup, and it was really a "small". At this time, there were losses and wins on the field, and there were always more than a dozen taels of silver flowing into the pockets of different people, no one cared about the two coins of silver that Fang Zhongjin won, and everyone continued to gamble.
Fang and Lu both wanted not to be noticeable. So I only bet one or two dollars of silver each time, and I deliberately lose once every three or four times I win. It was blocked from morning to dusk. There were gamblers coming in and out of the gambling hall one after another, from a dozen gamblers before to about forty people gathered at this time. Fang Zhongjin secretly felt that the money bag he hid in his sleeve was heavy, including cash silver and silver tickets, and it was estimated that there would always be about two hundred taels of silver.
Fang Zhongjin hinted that Lu'er could go, and Lu'er also nodded to her. The two of them took advantage of the dealer to open the cup, and everyone quietly slipped out of the door when they stretched their necks to look at the points.
The two of them walked out of the gambling house and turned into an alley on the side, and they couldn't hold back their laughter. Fang Zhongjin was just about to ask Lu'er what ability he relied on to be able to guess nine times out of ten. At this time, someone at the entrance of the alley shouted: "You two little bastards, come out!" It turned out that a group of thugs blocked the entrance of the alley.
Lu'er said, "There are many of them, don't go out." Let's run. As he spoke, he pulled Fang Zhongjin and wanted to run to the other end of the alley. But I saw that the alley was also blocked. Looking up, there is a three-story building wall, and there is nowhere to climb. This is really called catching a turtle in an urn.
Although Lu'er is good at reading people's hearts, he can't think of any way at this time.
Fang Zhongjin guessed that these were the thugs of the gambling house, and said in a deep voice: "They are all my own people, and I am under Boss Yang." Today this incident is a misunderstanding. Take us to meet your eldest brother, you have your own share. ”
One of the gangsters at the head didn't know who "Boss Yang" was. Seeing that the kid said calmly, there was no fear on his face, I was afraid that there was really some doorway. He asked tentatively, "Who is our eldest brother?" ”
Fang Zhongjin thought that since this was the Zhao family's house, he gambled and said: "Brother Zhao is unparalleled in your kindness, and everyone respects him in the rivers and lakes." Today this matter is not right on us. Our Boss Yang just asked me to pass on a word, and brother, I made my own initiative to play two. Please don't blame the big brother. ”
The leader of the gangsters said in his heart: This kid is indeed from the Tao. Since you know our eldest brother, you must really be some of Boss Yang's subordinates. He shouted again, "If you have anything to pass on to our eldest brother, it will be the same with me." ”
Fang Zhongjin also said: "The stakes are very high, and it endangers the survival and honor of all gangs in five cities and sixteen towns on the outskirts of Beijing. Our Boss Yang ordered me to make it clear to Brother Zhao in person. ”
The gangster leader never counted how many towns there were on the outskirts of Beijing. Seeing that he has a nose and eyes, he is just two children. There are many people in him, and he will definitely not let them run away if he escorts the two of them to see the boss.
So he shouted into the alley, "Since you are friends on the road, please come out." Our boss is in the backyard of the gambling house, and if you want to see him, come with me. ”
Fang Zhongjin calmly walked out of the alley and saluted with his fists in front of this group of ruffians. He didn't show the slightest abnormality on his face, and secretly wondered in his heart which of them looked weaker and could break through and escape.
Suddenly, a proud voice said, "I've never heard of the sheep boss and the cow boss." Who the hell are you?" and a man of about thirty years old came over with a folding fan. The others immediately saluted and called him "big brother", which shows that this man should be the leader of this group of hooligans, Brother Zhao. But Qi is strange that this hooligan leader does not dress as a martial artist, but wears a goose-yellow dress, a folding fan in his hand, a jade belt tied around his waist, and a piece of white jade on the top of his head. Look at his frivolous face again, and he can't hide the grace on his face.
Fang Zhongjin knew that he couldn't be deceived this time, so he hugged his fists and said, "The kid has no form, I don't know where to offend these big brothers." You're going to get in our way?"
The little hooligan leader turned his head to Brother Zhao and said, "Big brother, these two guys are out of the gambling house. After winning more than 200 taels of silver, he wanted to run. ”
Fang Zhongjin hurriedly said: "This big brother can't slander people, we just passed by here to play casually, and we were lucky to win a few handfuls today, and we never knew what it was." Don't you only allow people to go in and lose money, but not win?" he said, louder and louder, as if intent on hearing the gamblers in the house.
Brother Zhao saw that there were really a few gamblers in the gambling house looking out suspiciously, so he immediately said loudly: "Our gambling house has always paid attention to fairness, and winning or losing depends on ability. He is never soft on those who come out of the way. Since you keep saying that there is no old man, let us search for it. As long as there is nothing like lead on your body, I will let you go. ”
Fang Zhongjin knew that he had no dice, so he let them search. A little minion received Brother Zhao's eyes and came up to search his body. He groped back and forth for a long time, and even the heavy money pocket was turned out to check, and there was nothing but the coveted silver.
Fang Zhongjin took back the money pocket and said, "Since you can't find anything, we are grateful to Brother Zhao for their words and took the first step." He said a fist salute and raised his feet to leave.
Brother Zhao stretched out his fan and stopped: "Say, you can go, that girl stays and continues to search." As he spoke, a pair of thief eyes stared up and down at the deer.
Lu'er's face flushed with shame and glared at him angrily.
Brother Zhao was full of excitement, thinking that although I usually don't like to play with such a small girl, this girl really has a pair of seductive peach blossom eyes. With evil thoughts in his heart, he rolled up his sleeves and spread his ten fingers to come up and search himself.
Lu'er hid behind Fang Zhongjin, and Brother Zhao wanted to push Fang Zhongjin away to catch Lu'er, but he felt that his hand was like a stone wall. He looked at Fang Zhongjin in a daze, and shouted: "Get out, don't get in the way of Lao Tzu." ”
Fang Zhongjin didn't say much. Although he still only has one set of Taizu long fists, his internal strength has been small, and the power of the same move is completely different. He lifted his hand to make a move to the sky hammer, and threw Brother Zhao out.
Brother Zhao's heart hurts, his blood is surging, and he can't see that this kid is actually pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger. He glanced at the rest of the minions, and everyone hugged them side by side.
Fang Zhongjin pulled the deer with his left hand, flashed left and right between the human gaps, and took advantage of the momentum to slash with his right hand, knocking several minions to the ground. To put it bluntly, these minions are just idlers in town. No one has ever learned a trick and a half. When they rushed up together, they didn't talk about any pace and coordination. In this way, you squeeze me, I squeeze you, I was rushed by Fang Zhongjin several times, and then I was pulled and tripped by the person who fell, and I was going to be squeezed to the ground, and no one could stop Fang Zhongjin's way.
Brother Zhao saw that so many people couldn't stop him, and he was also afraid of the pain of being beaten just now. He thought this kid had some skills. If you don't lose money in front of you, these few hundred taels of silver will be considered a lesson for buying a light enemy today. He shouted, "You little scoundrel, don't run! "It's just that none of the brothers, nor himself, have stepped forward to chase after him.
Fang Zhongjin ran away with the deer, and when he saw that no one was chasing him anymore, he stopped to catch his breath. Lu'er suddenly gasped and laughed, and said, "I can't go back if I run out of Zhao's house now." It looks like we're looking for a ruined temple to live in again. ”
Fang Zhongjin said: "Although the money is fast in this way, it is too dangerous. I don't know if I'll be able to escape next time. Fortunately, there are now more than 200 taels of silver, and you can always go to Ninghai if you save a little. ”
Lu'er shook her head and said, "Don't play like this anymore." I thought that earning silver was also to live in a broken temple, but I didn't expect to earn silver and live in a broken temple. This is definitely the last time. ”
The two of them were happy in their hearts and laughed in the sunset. Tomorrow, even if there are any twists and turns on the road, it will become a happy silhouette under the dusk.
