Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Casino

(a)

Leaving the "Yaoji House", Liu Yunyu looked at Shen Yuan, only to feel that he seemed to be becoming more and more mysterious, as if he had become another person, and couldn't help asking: "Brother Afeng, your martial arts are so high, it's incredible?"

Shen Yuan smiled and said: "After experiencing the wind and rain of the rivers and lakes, if the martial arts are too low and you can't survive at all, you can only practice martial arts by practicing hard and so that you will not be eliminated?"

Liu Yunyu asked as if she didn't understand: "Are the rivers and lakes really so terrible?"

Zhuo Bufan interjected: "In my impression, the rivers and lakes are a place for young people to get ahead, but for adults, they are a place of life and death. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Liu Yunyu rolled her eyes and snorted: "How old are you, how many ups and downs have you experienced, and you don't talk big in front of me?"

Zhuo Bufan said unconvinced: "I'm not old, but I've definitely experienced more things than you?"

Liu Yunyu said unconvinced: "You are much less than Brother A Feng?"

Zhuo Bufan said: "Ah Feng is a few years older than me, and his knowledge is naturally wider than mine? ”

Liu Yunyu snorted and laughed: "Don't brag, I think it's a third-rate! This is also a promotion of you, maybe it's the last rate?"

Zhuo Bufan said proudly: "The last stream, you have belittled me too low, right? Although I can't do it with my martial arts, I can't do it to the point of opening mountains and splitting roads, flying leaves and killing people, but when I mention the 'Light Wheel Ice Cloud Turns Without a Trace, Wind and Snow Soul System Flying Rainbow' in the rivers and lakes, it is also very famous?"

Shen Yuan glanced at him in surprise: "It turns out that you are the 'Traceless Knife' ordinary?"

Zhuo Bufan said with a smile: "Walking the rivers and lakes, who wants to use their real name? Speaking of which, my sword technique is also based on the essence of the family heirloom knife technique and the 'Panlong Knife Technique' of the 'Panlong Palace', and I have created a unique set of knife techniques, even the old man Dugu praises it? Don't you think I'm a genius?"

Liu Yunyu asked in surprise: "The sentence 'The light wheel and ice clouds turn without a trace, and the wind and snow are rainbows' is quite poetic?"

Zhuo Bufan said proudly: "I don't know, let me tell you? This 'light wheel' refers to Shen Renyu, who holds a curved jade wheel, which can be divided into two, one yin and one yang, and there are organs in the wheel, which are endlessly changing; 'Ice Cloud' refers to He Binglin, and her weapon is an eight-foot-long, crystal clear, but rigid and soft, broken gold and jade-cut 'Ice Cloud Silk'; 'Traceless' is naturally my 'Traceless Knife', and I will tell you quietly, my' The 'Traceless Knife' is different, it is made of Ugin, it is no more than two feet long, the blade is double-edged, he is my secret weapon, and he does not use it lightly; As soon as the 'Wind and Snow Staff' came out, the wind roared and thundered, and the ice and snow intersected; 'Suo Soul' refers to Suo Mantian, his weapon is very strange, there is a long rope that comes and goes without a trace, only an inch in a short time, and can reach a few zhang in a long time; 'Rainbow' refers to the cold horizontal wave, her weapon is a colorful silk, and the silk scarf is like seven rainbows to conjure up a sky full of flowers, the fragrance of flowers is fragrant, and it can be said to be a great spectacle. Gu said that her light skills are extremely high, and she rarely uses martial arts with others, I don't know how her martial arts are?"

Liu Yunyu said in surprise: "I didn't think you know a lot, quite famous?"

Zhuo Bufan said worriedly: "That's natural." Since I was seven years old, I left the 'Central Plains Dart Bureau' with my mother, drifting around, suffering hardships and starvation, eating and sleeping in the open air, and seeing the hot and cold state of the world, and the warmth and coldness of people. Later, my mother died of illness, and I lived by stealing and begging alone. When I was fifteen years old, I met the five sons of the 'Panlong Palace' Duguzi and the sixth son Dugulong, and it was the sixth prince who begged the five princes to bring me back to the 'Panlong Palace', so that I had a place to live. Since then, in order to repay my kindness and get ahead, I have practiced desperately, windy and rainy, cold winter and scorching heat, and I left the 'Panlong Palace' at the age of eighteen to fight on the rivers and lakes, so that I have today's achievements. ”

Zhuo Qingqing's face showed a look of guilt, she never imagined that her younger brother had experienced so much suffering, and she couldn't help but feel sad in her heart, if it wasn't for her mother driving away Erniang, her younger brother wouldn't have suffered so much?

Shen Yuan smiled and said: "'If you don't experience a lot of wind and rain, you will have to have a fragrant plum blossom." If you want to succeed, you will naturally pay a certain price. But there are people outside the people, there are heavens outside the sky, and the rivers and lakes are muddy and traps everywhere, so the rivers and lakes are not so fun?"

Zhuo Bufan nodded: "Ah Feng, you are right. With my martial arts, I can't be called a real master, what I yearn for most in my life is to reach the realm of 'Top Ten Masters', and the person I admire the most in my life is 'Sword God' Shen Yuan. ”

Liu Yunyu asked in surprise: "Ah Fan, is the sword god's martial arts really high?"

Zhuo Bufan said excitedly: "Of course." His swordsmanship is the best in the world, and he ranks first among the 'Top Ten Masters'. I heard that he is not only the best in the world in swordsmanship, but also handsome, and is the dream lover in the hearts of countless girls, and also the idol in the hearts of countless teenagers. ”

Liu Yunyu's eyes showed a look and said, "Have you seen him?"

Shaking his head, Zhuo Bufan's face showed a look of regret: "This is the most regrettable thing in my life?" However, it is said that the people who have seen his true face are either his friends or dead people; ”

At this moment, Liu Yunyu shouted impatiently again: "Brother Feng, Afan, Sister Qingqing is gone again?"

The two of them were stunned, looked around, and sure enough, there was no trace of Zhuo Qingqing.

Zhuo Bufan said: "We will look separately, whether we find anyone or not, we will meet at the 'Fugui Gambling House' in front." ”

"Okay" The three of them nodded in unison, and hurriedly divided their heads to chase away.

(b)

After a while, the three of them gathered together sweating profusely, and they all shook their heads in unison.

Liu Yunyu said anxiously: "What should I do?

Zhuo Bufan comforted: "Yunyu, are you worrying too much?"

Liu Yunyu raised her head and saw the bustle and noise in the gambling house.

Shaking her head, Liu Yunyu said suspiciously: "Do you think Sister Qingqing will be inside?"

Zhuo Bufan said: "How can it be? My sister has always been diligent and thrifty, and she will never go into the gambling house to spend money indiscriminately?"

Liu Yunyu glared at them: "That's not sure, the more impossible it is to go, the more Sister Qingqing will go." You must know that if a person is in a bad mood, there are only two places to go: one is to go to a restaurant to drink and relieve boredom, and the other is to go to a gambling house to gamble money, so that his unpleasant mood will disappear, and some of his money will disappear and come back!"

She turned around and got into the 'Fugui Gambling House', and Zhuo Bufan and Shen Yuan were afraid that she would make trouble, so they hurriedly chased after her.

I saw a lot of noise in the gambling house, crowded with gamblers, there were dice rolling, pushing pai gow, ground tigers, etc.

Zhuo Bufan grabbed Liu Yunyu: "Let's go out!" There is a miasma of smoke here, and there are all kinds of characters from three religions and nine ranks, isn't it where you girls come from?"

Liu Yunyu said happily, "That's not possible, it's already here, I always have to try my luck and try my luck." ”

Shen Yuan said: "Ah Feng, you don't have to worry, her gambling skills are good, and she can't find a few opponents in Luoyang City?"

Liu Yunyu said proudly: "Of course." You guys go around and have fun, and by the way, take a look at Sister Qingqing. ”

She squeezed into the crowd and only listened to the dealer shouting: "Buy big to win big, buy small to win small, everyone bet quickly." ”

Liu Yunyu took out a blooming ingots from her arms and bet them on the turntable: "I'll bet big." ”

Zhuo Bufan squeezed forward: "Yunyu, don't bet too much?"

Liu Yunyu's eyebrows fluttered and said: "Afan, don't worry, I've won!"

Shen Yuan said: "Don't get too carried away?"

Liu Yunyu glanced at him and said unhappily: "You don't pour cold water on me?"

Turning around, the ball was spinning, gradually shaking around, and it was falling in a big place, Liu Yunyu jumped up excitedly and clapped her hands: "I won, I won!"

Reaching out and taking the silver, a look of envy and jealousy suddenly shot everywhere.

Shen Yuan pulled her out: "Yuyu, it's enough, let's change it again!"

Liu Yunyu turned to a small crowd, the field was buying a bill and buying a pair, there was a pile of jade beads on the table, she took a look, and put a piece of silver on the table with a smile: "Pay the bill." ”

The dealer looked up at them, with an invisible smile on his chubby face, he reached out and picked up the jade staff, dialed the jade, and finally only two jade stones remained, and shouted: "Double." ”

Liu Yunyu had a smile on her face, and pursed her lips: "How can this be, there is a problem?"

Zhuo Bufan smiled: "It seems that your gambling skills are not very good!"

Liu Yunyu said unhappily: "This is a moment of carelessness, whose luck will we try together?"

Zhuo Bufan said: "I'll try it too." ”

Liu Yunyu said: "The child leaned aside." ”

Zhuo Bufan's face turned blue with anger: "What, I'm a child?"

At this time, the dealer shouted: "Buy a single and buy double, bet and leave your hand." ”

He suddenly threw the jade up, brushed it up with both hands, and the jade continued to fall, and instantly grabbed a handful and put it on the table, glanced at the two of them, and shouted: "Buy the order, buy the double, bet and leave the hand." ”

Liu Yunyu's eyes rolled, and she took out the silver taels and put them on the table: "Buy a pair." ”

Shen Yuan smiled and said, "Okay, I'll pay." The first test is one hundred and eleven grains. Stretched out his hand and took out a piece of jade from his bosom: "I don't have a silver tael on me, so I might as well use this jade as a pledge and bet ten taels of silver." ”

The dealer dialed the jade, and in the end there were only two left.

Liu Yunyu shouted happily: "Brother Feng, I won, you lost!"

"Slow" Shen Yuan stopped her hand and smiled: "You lost, it should be a single." When the dealer grabbed the jade just now, he pinched a piece of jade in half, and when the jade fell, due to the excessive momentum, one grain was cut into two, and the two became single. ”

Sure enough, the last grain suddenly cracked open and became two petals.

Zhuo Bufan said happily: "Ah Feng, your gambling skills are really not bad?"

Liu Yunyu curled her mouth unhappily: "The blind cat meets the dead mouse." ”

At this moment, there was a commotion not far away, mixed with a burst of shouting.

Liu Yunyu pulled Shen Yuan up: "Brother Feng, let's go over and take a look?"

She looked around and exclaimed in surprise, "Where is Sister Qingqing?"

Squeezed over, Liu Yunyu reached out and shook Zhuo Qingqing's arm excitedly: "Sister Qingqing, are we looking for you everywhere?"

Zhuo Qingqing glanced at them coldly, and said impatiently, "Don't disturb me?"

Shen Yuan looked at it and recognized that the gamblers were Guo Cai and Guo Gui in the martial arts competition a few days ago, and it was Guo Gui who fought with the dealer. The dealer is a young girl, with bright eyes and bright teeth, and thousands of beautiful manners, although she is a loser at this time, her god form is not the slightest fluster.

Guo Cai coaxed on the side: "Sure enough, it deserves to be called 'after gambling on the country', and it is worthy of its reputation? Even if it is a loser, he is still calm." My third brother has always had a heart of pity and cherishing jade, so it's better to marry him, it's better than begging for a living in this mixed pile of men with dragons and snakes?"

The young girl looked at them coldly: "It is not yet known who killed the deer, why should you be proud?"

Guo Gui smiled: "Since the girl doesn't admit defeat, it's better to do this! Let's book three more games, if the girl loses, give up the 'Rich Casino', how about it?"

Guo Cai smiled and said: "If the girl is reluctant, this is also easy to do! The girl will marry my third brother, so it is more justifiable?"

The young girl's pretty face changed, her eyebrows were raised, and she heard a clear voice coming: "Ying'er." ”

Everyone looked up, but they saw a gorgeous old man appearing from behind, gorgeously dressed, tall, strong, with a fair complexion, a face like a full moon, and kind eyebrows. He looked forward to it, like a noble eunuch, he stretched out a pair of strong and powerful, white and jade-like hands, wearing spotted Han jade fingers on his fingers, with a smile on his face, which was unfathomable.

The young girl stood up and bowed in surprise: "Dad, you're back!"

The gorgeous old man smiled and said: "Ying'er, you have worked hard, let your father deal with this gamble!"

Guo Cai smiled disappreciably: "The main master really appeared, is Your Excellency Nie Xuan or Nie Qi in 'Black and White Impermanence'?"

Nie Xuan's heart was shocked, his thick eyebrows raised, and a sharp light shot out of his eyes: "It seems that the two of you are coming for Nie!"

Guo Gui said with a smile: "Can you also say that? The two brothers Guo are here for the 'Fugui Gambling House', I hope Your Excellency will be more happy, and I am willing to lose the gambling and let the 'Fugui Gambling House' out?"

Nie Xuan raised his eyebrows and said coldly: "The gambling game has just begun, and the real winner has not yet been decided, and Your Excellency is too anxious?"

Guo Cai said with a smile: "In the next bet to win nine out of ten, you'd better get acquainted with each other and give it up! ”

Liu Yunyu snorted, pursed her lips and muttered in a low voice: "Bragging, it must be ten bets and nine losses." ”

Although her voice was small, she was standing opposite the two of them at this time, they couldn't help but raise their heads, Liu Yunyu was so frightened that she closed her mouth, and was secretly shocked in her heart: "They can also hear such a small voice?"

Guo Cai and Guo Gui glanced at Liu Yunyu, but stopped at Shen Yuan, their expressions were a little unnatural, and the two of them muttered a few words secretly.

Guo Gui said to Shen Yuan: "It's really a place in life where you don't meet, I can't imagine that you are so interested in gambling, but I don't know if your gambling skills are comparable to your martial arts?"

Shen Yuan said coldly: "Although Shen's gambling skills are not among the best, if you want to win you, it is still more than enough." ”

Guo Gui's face turned pale, and he sneered: "The surname Shen, don't be too arrogant, if you talk about martial arts, we sigh to ourselves;

Shen Yuan said coldly: "Shen Moucai disdains to fight with your group of juniors, so as not to insult my identity?

Guo Gui was so angry that his face turned blue, his eyes were smoky, and his right hand pointed at him tremblingly: "The surname is Shen, you are too blind to no one?"

Nie Xuan glanced at Shen Yuan strangely, but there was no surprise in his eyes.

Shen Yuan's brows furrowed, and he thought to himself: "Strange, why did Nie Xuan look like a stranger when he saw me, and he had always been plain in his previous attire, and he never wanted to embellish it more, not to mention that he still wore a valuable jade finger on his hand? Was it the environment that made him change, or was it ......?"

Seeing that Shen Yuan didn't seem to take him seriously, Nie Gui was even more annoyed in his heart, and slapped the gambling table suddenly: "The surname Shen, if you don't gamble today, you are the son of the bastard turtle?"

He glared at Shen Yuan, furious, if his eyes could kill, Shen Yuan would have died thousands of times.

Liu Yunyu stretched out her hand and tugged at his sleeve, and whispered, "Brother Feng, what should I do, that guy is angry?"

Shen Yuan said disappreciably: "Since you want to make a fool of yourself in public, Shen is also unceremonious?"

He walked over lightly and said to Nie Xuan, "Can you ask the owner to be a middleman?"

Nie Xuanwen said: "Okay, Nie is not talented, are you willing to bet on Shen Gongzi's demeanor?"

Guo Gui rubbed his hands together, made a crisp rattling sound, and secretly wondered in his heart: "Although his martial arts are higher than mine, he will definitely lose to me in gambling skills?"

Shen Yuan didn't think about how to win Guo Gui, but he felt strange about Nie Xuan's attitude? It stands to reason that the Nie family brothers have always been extremely respectful and respectful to themselves, but Nie Xuan doesn't seem to know him, and he is like a stranger, why is this?

Zhuo Bufan stretched out his hand and touched Shen Yuan: "Ah Feng, what are you thinking?"

Guo Cai snorted coldly: "The surname is Shen, are you afraid?"

Liu Yunyu pulled Zhuo Qingqing to stand behind Shen Yuan, and asked quietly, "Sister Qingqing, do you guess if Brother A Feng will win?"

Zhuo Qingqing said coldly: "I won't guess?"

Liu Yunyu pouted: "Sister Qingqing." ”

"Don't you ask me?" Zhuo Qingqing has lost interest in everything, since Liu Chengfeng abandoned her, Shen Chunfeng took away her innocence, her heart has been broken, and people have lost all feelings.

(c)

Guo Gui rubbed his hands, his fingers were ringing, and his muscles were bursting up, but his heart was extremely nervous and anxious, sweat was pouring from his forehead, he swallowed a few mouthfuls of drooping foam deeply, and stared at his eyes: "The surname is Shen, you are determined to lose this time!"

Shen Yuan sat down calmly and said coldly, "Really?"

Nie Xuan didn't know what he was thinking, he looked at the two of them with deep eyes, and said with a smile: "How do you two want to set the rules?"

Guo Gui shouted: "We use three rounds to determine the winner or loser, listening to the technique, the size ......"

Shen Yuan said coldly: "No matter what you compare, you will definitely lose?"

Guo Gui was so angry that he smoked, his hands were clenched, and his fingers were pinched: "The surname is Shen, you are too arrogant, you ......"

But he didn't dare to scold, after all, he was facing someone who even the master was extremely afraid of.

He let go of his hand, rubbed his fingers unnaturally, and stared at his bloodshot eyes: "Don't you regret it?"

Shen Yuan smiled and waved his hand calmly: "Please." ”

Guo Gui picked up the dice, flicked it into the porcelain jar, and held the gambling jar with both hands to shake up and down, flipping and flying, making skillful movements, and then suddenly fell and covered Zhuo.

Shen Yuan's eyes were like torches, his ears were fanning, and he couldn't see any expression on his face.

Liu Yunyu was dumbfounded, she had always thought that her gambling skills were good, and now it seemed that they were real masters.

Shen Yuan tapped a pair of slender fingers on the table like playing a piano, and said with a smile: "Thirty-six o'clock." ”

Liu Yunyu was taken aback, and thought to herself: "Three dice, the biggest point is only eighteen points, when will it become thirty-six points, isn't this a loss?"

Shen Yuan waved his hand at Nie Xuan: "Please." ”

Nie Xuan stretched out his hand and picked up the gambling jar, there were six dice neatly placed in it, all of them were six points, exactly thirty-six points, I don't know where these three dice came from?

Guo Gui glared at him and raised his eyebrows: "It's your turn!"

Shen Yuan picked up the gambling jar, rolled the dice into it against the table, and raised it into the air, and the gambling jar rotated in the air, making beautiful movements. With a stiff wrist, he poked the gambling jar in his hand and landed on the table with a 'bang', and the gambling jar was still spinning and spinning on the table, making Guo Cai break out in a cold sweat.

Shen Yuan smiled, pressed the gambling jar with his fingertips, and the gambling jar stopped and stretched out his hand: "Please guess." ”

Liu Yunyu was overjoyed, and glanced at Guo Gui: "Admit defeat as soon as possible, so as not to be embarrassed?"

Guo Gui unnaturally wiped the sweat drops on his forehead with his sleeve, and thought for a while: "Three o'clock...... Oh no...... Ten o'clock...... Not ......"

Liu Yunyu sneered: "Hurry up, can't you admit defeat as soon as possible?"

Guo Gui held his breath and said, "Five o'clock...... It's five o'clock ......."

Everyone was in an uproar, obviously six dice, if it was all one point, it should be six points, when did it become five points?

Nie Xuan stretched out his hand and picked up the gambling jar, there were five dice in the gambling jar, all of which were one point, and the sixth one was broken and dotted, exactly five points. Guo Gui sighed and wiped his sweat with relief.

Shen Yuan quietly stretched out his hand: "The second game." ”

Guo Gui puffed out a pair of goldfish eyes: "Let's compare the big ones, don't ...... Who's the least number of points this time and who's going to win?"

Shen Yuan smiled and said, "Listen to it." ”

Guo Gui raised the gambling jar, the double swing and rotated, the gambling jar flew up, slid from his right hand to his left hand, and then fell heavily on his right hand, he stared at Shen Yuan, and pressed it on the table fiercely. This time, he took out his highest level to bet with Shen Yuan.

Nie Xuan picked up the gambling jar, and everyone let out an exclamation in amazement, sweating for Shen Yuan.

I saw that the three dice were stacked like arhats, just one point.

Guo Gui looked at Shen Yuan proudly: "Now see how you win me?"

Shen Yuan calmly approved: "Your Excellency's gambling skills are excellent, it is indeed impressive?"

He picked up the gambling jar, and did not play any new tricks, but gently placed it on the table, and pressed the gambling jar on the table with his slender fingers, and an unfathomable smile appeared on his lips.

"Open...... Open ......" the gamblers around shouted one after another.

Nie Xuan stretched out his hand to pick up the gambling jar, looked at it, and instantly showed a look of disbelief.

In an instant, there was silence all around, and I saw that the remaining three dice in the gambling jar had all turned into powder, Guo Gui was dumbfounded, and Liu Yunyu shouted excitedly: "Brother Afeng, you have won!"

Guo Gui's face changed greatly, and the noise around him was endless.

Guo Cai sneered: "The surname is Shen, you won this game with deep internal strength, and you can't be considered a good person?"

Nie Xuan's expression sank: "Two friends, willing to lose the bet, please!"

Guo Gui and Guo Cai glared at Shen Yuan fiercely: "Count you ruthless, let's wait and see!"

Shen Yuan smiled disapprerovingly: "Shen will accompany him to the end at any time?"

Watching the two of them leave the 'Rich Gambling House' in a gloomy manner, Nie Xuan's gratitude was beyond words.

Zhuo Bufan quietly asked suspiciously: "Ah Feng, aren't you ......?"

Shen Yuan coughed lightly and interjected, "Don't talk, let's go!"

Liu Yunyu suddenly screamed: "Brother Feng, Afan, Sister Qingqing is gone again?"

Zhuo Bufan said worriedly: "What is this sister doing!

Shen Yuan said: "You guys go back first! If I find her first, I will definitely bring her back?"

Liu Yunyu pouted: "I always feel that something is wrong with Sister Qingqing, I am in a trance all day long, and I don't know what happened, and even the eldest brother was angry with her?"

Shen Yuan didn't say anything, glanced at Nie Xuan deeply, and turned around and left the 'Rich Gambling House'.

Nie Xuan was so stunned by his last glance that his whole body seemed to be drenched by a burst of cold rain, and he was stunned: "Who is he? Does he know Nie Xuan? What does he mean by this glance? No, this operation can't be delayed any longer, I have to urge? Otherwise, I have to be exposed?"

He had been standing in the middle of the hall, oblivious to the commotion around him.
