Xue Yang and Jin Wu competed to guess coins. Everyone first cleared one side of the dining table, and then placed five copper plates on each side. Jin Wu and Xue Yang stepped forward and separated on both sides.
Luofan said: "Let's begin!"
The two men looked at each other and put five copper coins into their sleeves at the same time! After a while, the two of them each hid several copper coins in their hands and stretched out their fists!
It only lasted a moment, but the two of them had a lot of knowledge on their sleeves. They are both masters of martial arts and gamblers, so their ears must be good. Xue Yang knew that Pin Er was not as good as Jin Wu, and Jin Wu could tell the number even if there was a slight collision of copper coins in his hand. Therefore, he used the technique of "rain falling on the beach".
This technique is the simplest and can be learned by beginners. Just put the five copper coins in your sleeves one after another without any collision with each other, then pick them up one by one with your hands, and keep switching them between your fingers. Finally, hide the extra coins in the hidden pocket of your sleeve. If you repeat this several times, even a person with strong ears will become confused.
The method adopted by Jin Wu is simpler, which is the unique skill of "Thousand Hinge Door". To put it simply, they use internal force to vibrate copper coins to interfere with each other. There were only five copper coins in his hand, but the collision seemed like thousands of coins colliding with each other. In this way, Xue Yang couldn't tell the numbers no matter how strong his ears were.
In this way, the two of them each displayed their unique skills and stretched out their fists at the same time. At this moment, everyone could see the veins popping out in Jin Wu's fist, which was obviously very tight. But Xue Yang's hands are ordinary!
Jin Wu didn't hear the movement in Xue Yang's sleeves just now, and nodded in his mind: "As expected of Yin Zhuge, he even knows the route to the gambling shop. It seems that I can only rely on watching."
Immediately, his eyes turned red, he stared at Xue Yang's fist, and began to use the Thousand Hinge Door's "Tianluo Magic Skill". Under his powerful eyes, all the meridians and blood flow conditions of Xue Yang's arms emerged, and at the same time, he constantly deduced the best possibilities in his hands in his mind!
Xue Yang, on the other hand, stood calmly. He was not in a hurry to guess the number of copper coins in the other party's hand. Because as long as the other party guesses wrong, he wins.
Everyone is nervously waiting for the final outcome. But Luofan was still drinking, looking indifferent.
The two sides were facing each other. Jin Wu stared at Xue Yang's fist and thought in his mind: "Based on Xue Yang's movements in his sleeves and the flow of blood in his arm muscles. The probability of three is 60%, and the probability of four is 60%." The probability is 40%. It should be three!"
Seeing Jin Wu's eyes rolling around, Xue Yang was secretly happy. The Qianhingmen people guess the numbers by listening to sounds, reading bone shapes, and identifying blood flow! And his palm was injured and was different from ordinary people. If Jin Wu makes inferences based on common sense, he will definitely guess wrong.
Jin Wu made up his mind and raised his head. Just as he was about to speak, Luofan stepped forward to stop him!
Luo Fan stepped forward and asked, "How many?"
Jin Wu's face was full of displeasure, and he put his hand into the bottom of Luofan's sleeve and tapped it three times. Luofan used his secret voice transmission ability: "Two more."
When Luofan asked him to guess five coins, Jin Wu looked displeased and frowned, "You don't believe my judgment?"
Luofan had no doubts: "Listen to me, I am the master!"
Seeing that Luofan was so sure, Jin Wu had no choice but to look at Xue Yang and said, "Five!"
Hearing this, the veins on Xue Yang's forehead twitched involuntarily, showing a look of panic. Seeing Xue Yang's expression, Jin Wu and Luo Fan looked at each other, knowing that they had won.
Xue Yang spread his hands, and sure enough, five copper coins fell on the table. When everyone saw it, they gasped! This Luofan's guess was too accurate!
Luo Fan smiled faintly: "It seems that shopkeeper Jin guessed it right. Now, it's time for the adults."
"This!" Xue Yang froze for a moment!
Everyone looked at Xue Yang anxiously. Xue Yang had no choice but to make a casual guess: "One!"
But he saw a smug sneer on Shopkeeper Jin's face. This smile had already declared Xue Yang's failure. But when he slowly stretched out his hand, the copper coin fell to the ground with a "dang" sound!
Everyone was overjoyed when they heard the sound. However, when I lowered my head and took a closer look, they all looked pale. It turned out that it was not one copper coin, but five copper coins crushed into a ball and nailed together.
Everyone was disappointed, and Yang Rongrong was even more desperate. Who would have thought that they could lose in such a competition!
Luofan said calmly: "I win! Mr. Xue accepts!"
Xue Yang asked Luo Fan in confusion: "How do you know I have five coins in my hand? Even shopkeeper Jin guessed it wrong, how did you guess it right?"
Luofan did not hide it and replied: "Shopkeeper Jin can tell that you have three coins with your unique skill of Qianhingmen. But I think your hands are loose, as if you did it on purpose. When you were young, you were known as a gambling tyrant and you liked to guess coins. There must be a reason, maybe your palms are different from ordinary people. I can only choose between four and five! Most gamblers will bet on heavy treasures, I think you are the same!"
Xue Yang also nodded in admiration, quite convinced by this answer.
Jin Wu knew that he had lost to Luofan Yiyi again, so he said unconvinced: "You are indeed a little clever in gambling!"
Luo Fan sat on the chair, looked at Yang Rongrong, and said coldly: "Now you lose! Sister-in-law, do you want to kowtow or pay back the 40,000 taels of silver?"
Yang Rongrong stamped her feet and gritted her teeth: "You despicable villain! I will never kowtow to you even if I die! If you have the ability, just kill me!"
Luofan immediately drew his sword: "Kill you! Is it difficult? Don't think that if I kill you brothers and sisters, you don't have to pay back the money. I, Luofan, never do business at a loss. If you don't want to pay back the money, just kowtow!"
Xue Yang scolded: "Luofan, don't go too far. The reputation of Jianghu people is more important than life!"
At this time, Ji Cheng and the others also shook their heads. Luofan is too shrewd in his business. In the blink of an eye, twenty thousand taels turned into forty thousand taels!
When Yang Zijiang heard that he wanted to pay back 40,000 taels, he hugged Yang Rongrong's thigh and cried: "Sister! Kowtow quickly! Otherwise, we have to pay back 40,000 taels! The evil arrester in Long County is really good at killing people. No." Just kowtow, it’s no big deal. Kowtow quickly!”
Yang Rongrong cried for a while and was at a loss. At this time, Xie Xu stepped forward with a dark complexion and lifted his robe: "I'll kowtow for her!"
Luo Fan turned around, shook his head and said, "No! Whoever we agreed on will be whoever it is. What do you think, sister-in-law?"
Ji Cheng frowned and said: "Luofan! It's not just 40,000 taels, I'll pay it back for them! Give me an hour, I'll go to all the merchants in Qicheng and I'll definitely lend it to you!"
Xue Yang also frowned. There are still hundreds of thousands of taels of silver in the chief arrester's account. But it was public property, so he couldn't use it to help Xie Xu. All he could say was: "Luofan! After all, he is a man of the same profession. Just wait here, and we will go door to door to borrow money for you right now! We promise to get the money together for you in half an hour!"
Luofan suddenly stood up and walked towards Yang Zijiang.
Yang Zijiang hurriedly hid behind Yang Rongrong and said fearfully: "What do you want to do? Uncle Xue and the others have agreed to pay back the money! Are you going to kill me again?"
Luofan smiled slightly: "What are you afraid of! It makes me look like a bad person. I heard that you like gambling very much. How about I give you another chance and you continue gambling with me! If you can beat me in one game, forty thousand I don’t want any more taels of silver. But if you lose one game, I won’t ask for more money from you. Just lose one finger! You have to pay back the borrowed money. Forty thousand taels is enough for you to pay back for several lifetimes. You might as well bet with me. How about this, is my deal a good deal?"
Everyone was shocked! Luofan had another bad idea! Why still gamble? Is he crazy about gambling?
Anyone who likes gambling can't help but be tempted by others. Moreover, I always feel that my luck can get better and I won't always be so unlucky. The confusion and luck in their hearts are the root of their inability to turn over. Yang Zijiang was hooked by Luo Fan, and the gambling bug in his heart crawled out to scratch him again.
Regardless of everything, he came out fiercely and shouted at Luo Fan: "Okay! I'll bet with you! I still have nine fingers, so I don't believe I can't beat you!"
Luo Fan's eyes turned cold: "But there is a rule when it comes to betting with me. I won't stop until I bet for ten games! Are you ready to keep all ten of your fingers?"
Seeing this, everyone quickly dissuaded Yang Zijiang.
Xue Yang hurriedly grabbed Yang Zijiang and tried his best to dissuade him: "Yang Zijiang, don't be stupid! You can't beat him in the bet, he is deliberately deceiving you. Our elders helped you with these 40,000 taels, but you didn't You have to fight the madman!"
Yang Zijiang pushed Xue Yang and others away, pointed angrily at everyone and shouted: "Get the hell away from me! Whatever I cause, I will handle it myself. I will bet with him to the end! I won't Believe me, I can’t win even one of the ten games! Then I’ve spent so many years in the casino in vain!”
