"Uh-huh! I've never heard of the golden-leaf God of Gamblers." Hua Yitang sneered, "Can you open it or not?"
Botou stared at Eta, his broad palm pressing the dice cup secretly exerting force, the dice cup made a creaking sound, and a crack appeared faintly.
This blogger is a skilled practitioner, and his kung fu is not weak.
When the gamblers saw this situation, they hurriedly put away their gambling money and retreated three feet away.
There was no hesitation on Eta's expression, and her big blue eyes were like the boundlessness of the deep sea, "The gambling table must be opened according to the rules!"
Lin Sui'an stepped forward, held Eta's shoulder with one hand, and gently pressed the other hand on the table for a moment, then moved it away, leaving a two centimeter-deep palm print on the table.
The gamblers gasped and stepped back two feet. There were only four people left around the gambling table, Botou, Yita, Lin Sui'an and Hua Yitang, and the atmosphere was tense.
At this moment, a loud shout came from the crowd, "Old Zeng, open it!" The boss suddenly raised his head with an ugly expression, "Alliance leader!"
The crowd made a way, and Wu Chun, leader of the Wuling Alliance, walked in. His head was wrapped in a bandage, and a few hairs protruded from the gaps in the bandage, like weeds that refused to admit defeat. The left half of his face was covered with gauze. There was faint blood oozing out.
"It's rare that Mrs. Lin and Hanashiro are in the mood to come to our gambling house to have fun, so naturally we will accompany them to the end." Wu Chun said.
Lin Sui'an blinked in surprise. She didn't feel any hostility from Wu Chun.
Botou sighed and opened the dice cup, "One, two, three, four, small."
Eta also opened, "Four fours, same color, four times."
The punters all exploded with a bang.
"This Persian boy is awesome!"
"This is the first time I've seen four fours!"
"Four times! How much is this bag of gold leaves worth?"
"Look at the quality and weight, at least it has..."
"A gold leaf costs one tael of gold, one tael of gold costs six guan, and a bag of gold leaves costs 180 guan. Four times that is 720 guan." Hua Yitang slowly shook his fan, "Leader Wu, Let’s settle.”
Botou's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot, and Wu Chun nodded, "Knot!"
Four black-faced men came over carrying four big bulging bags, and threw them on the gambling table. Dozens of gold coins hit the gambling table, making the table shake. They also lifted a plate of gold bars and placed them next to it. The visual effect Very shocking.
Hua Yitang picked up a gold bar, shook it, nodded, took out three bags of gold leaves and threw them on the gold bar, "Leader Wu, do you dare to continue?"
The whole place was deathly silent. The corner of Wu Chun's mouth trembled, and he scratched the wound on his face. His teeth were cracked in pain, "The Yangduhua family is as rich as any country, and there is also the Golden Leaf God of Gamblers sitting here. We, the Wuling Alliance, are broken." There is no chance of winning." He paused and raised his chin, "Bullying the weak and betting on a sure-win bet must be very boring for Hanashiro, right?"
Hua Yitang shook his head repeatedly, shaking his fan in a fancy way, "No, no, no, Hua likes to bet on sure-win bets, and he likes to bully the weak! I especially like how you get so angry when you are bullied by me, and how you look helpless to me! "
Lin Sui'an: "Pfft!"
Ita: "The method of provoking generals is useless against Shiro!"
Wu Chun's face twitched twice, "I know what you want." He took a deep breath, took out a scroll of books from his arms, and slapped it on the gambling table. It had a black satin paste cover and a green wood scroll. The title of the book is three words: Shi Jing Ji.
Lin Sui'an was stunned, and Hua Yitang's fan suddenly stopped.
Wu Chun's face finally stopped twitching and showed a smile, "This is the fragment of the Ten Pure Collections from the Andu Jingmen Branch. It fell into the hands of the Wuling League. It is said that it is among all the remaining fragments of the Ten Pure Collections. The most complete one, to be honest, the set of Miao Dao sword techniques I used in the battle with Madam Lin last night was based on this secret book and was designed to defeat the Shi Jing Ji sword techniques."
Lin Sui'an nodded, "Your sword skills can indeed restrain Shijingji, but unfortunately, you can't restrain me."
Wu Chun laughed twice and said, "The master of Qianjing's skill is far beyond my expectation. I am convinced that I have lost."
"You want to use this to bet with Hua?" Hua Yitang said suddenly.
Lin Sui'an turned around in surprise, and saw Hua Yitang's face was solemn, and his pupils were dark and cold, as if they had been tempered with ice.
Wu Chun: "Yes!"
Hua Yitang: "What are you betting on?"
Wu Chun's eyes flashed, "If I lose, Shijingji and Wuling League will belong to you. If I win, Yidu Jingmen and Wuling League will be divided across the river to rule. The south of Yujiang and the north of Jinjiang will belong to you. Wuling Alliance, from now on, the two factions will not interfere with each other!"
Lin Sui'an scratched his forehead, "Um... let me reiterate, I am only temporarily keeping Qianjing, the nominal master of Qianjing. The master of the Jingmen is Jin Ruo, and the Jingmen is not under my control -"
Hua Yitang: "I'm not betting on Jingmen's territory, I'm betting on Hua's territory. If I lose, all Yidu Hua's shops will belong to the Wuling Alliance."
As soon as these words came out, everyone present's jaws hit the ground, making a crackling sound.
Lin Sui'an ducked his waist: What the fuck? !
Wu Chun's eyes protruded from their sockets, like two bulging goldfish eyes, "Is Hanashiro serious about what he said?"
Hua Yitang's eyes were as fixed as stars, "We can write a contract!"
"Hua Yitang!" Lin Sui'an lowered his voice, "You know what you are talking about -"
Hua Yitang suddenly grabbed Lin Sui'an's wrist and shook his head gently, his eyes as calm as water.
Lin Sui'an was stunned: What do you mean?
Hua Yitang gently brought Lin Sui'an behind him, his back straight, "How to bet?"
Wu Chun Ding glanced at Hua Yitang and said in admiration, "He is indeed the most handsome man in Yangdu. He really spent a lot of money on a beauty. What a courage!"
Hua Yitang frowned, "Don't talk nonsense, how can you bet?!"
Wu Chun smiled, because half of his face did not dare to exert force, and only half of his face had expressions, which looked very strange. "The time and place of the gambling game have not yet been decided, and the candidates for the gambling game have not been selected. As for how to bet, I still need to think about it." One or two, could you ask Hanashiro to wait for me for a few days?"
"Okay!" Hua Yitang glanced at the "Shi Jing Ji" and banged his fan on the gaming table, "Buy the deal and leave without regrets!"
Lin Sui'an walked slowly down the street and sighed deeply.
Ita hitched a car and loaded all the copper coins and gold bars he won tonight. Wu Chun was quite honest and sent two thugs to help escort the car. Lin Sui'an wanted to go back with the car, but when he turned around, Hua Yitang actually left on his own. Such a flashy guy was wandering alone on the street in the middle of the night. Lin Sui'an was really worried and had no choice but to chase after him.
Hua Yitang didn't know what medicine he had taken wrongly. He drooped his eyelids and walked forward with his head sullenly. Lin Sui'an followed behind him, tilting his head to observe, and saw that the fan in his hand was fast for a while, slow for a while, and fast. Sometimes he mumbles, and sometimes he shakes his head, as if the clockwork has been wound up by mistake.
The moon is up. Today is the first quarter moon, hanging high in the dark blue sky. The large locust trees on both sides of the road are rustling, and the leaves reflect the moonlight, as if there are silver scales hanging from one tree after another.
Lin Sui'an heard the sound of running water, but saw a tall stone arch bridge across the Yujiang River in front of him. Towering street lamps replaced the locust trees. The light diffracted down. The stone bridge was bright and warm, as if it were made of jade. Pedestrians on the bridge They all stopped, leaning against the bridge railings to watch, talk, and laugh in low voices.
Hua Yitang finally stopped, as if he was tired from walking, looked at the river and let out a long breath.
Lin Sui'an strolled forward and stood next to Hua Yitang. Following Hua Yitang's gaze, he saw the sparkling waves of the river winding away, flowing towards the endless horizon.
Hua Yitang took another deep breath, quietly glanced at Lin Sui'an, a layer of pink appeared at the base of his ears, and said softly, "Yin Hui's leisurely water pulse——"
"That's not necessary." Lin Sui'an said.
Hua Yitang shook her fan and almost lost it. Panic flashed through her beautiful big eyes, "I, I haven't finished speaking yet -"
Lin Sui'an frowned, "I understand what you mean, but it's really not necessary."
Hua Yitang opened his mouth and closed it again. His long eyelashes drooped down, and a light shadow covered his eyelids. He clenched the fan tightly with both hands and dug his nails, "Am I too abrupt?"
"It's too risky," Lin Sui'an said, "For now, regardless of whether the Shi Jing Ji is true or false, even if it is true, I have learned all the skills in the Shi Jing Ji, so there is no need to gamble with Wu Chun. Bureau."
Hua Yitang froze for a long time, turned around, and looked at Lin Sui'an blankly, "Are you talking about the Shi Jing Ji?"
Lin Sui'an wondered: "What else?"
Hua Yitang's eyebrows twitched and he pointed his fan at himself, "I was reciting a poem just now - didn't you hear it?"
Lin Sui'an was helpless, "I have failed in poetry interpretation since I was a child, and I can't understand it."
"..."
"Tell me, what do you think?" Lin Sui'an poked Hua Yitang's shoulder, "Is it worth using such a big bet to make an inexplicable gamble?"
Hua Yitang pursed her lips and looked into Lin Sui'an's eyes motionlessly, as if he wanted to see into her heart through these eyes.
Lin Sui'an's eyes were dark and bright, like a mountain stream full of stars on a summer night, clear and... calm - Hua Yitang almost wanted to cry - she really didn't understand a word...
What the hell is this guy doing? Lin Sui'an was very confused.
Hua Yitang in front of him frowned for a while, his eyelids twitched for a while, his brows relaxed for a while, he sighed like an old man, and finally he looked at himself and smiled.
Then, he smiled and said, "It's worth it."
The wind suddenly became stronger, and the nine-layer flying firefly shirt of the handsome young man was looming and rippling in the deep night, like countless shining white peony petals.
Lin Sui'an's chest suddenly tightened and his heartbeat disappeared.
Hua Yitang raised his hand to smooth Lin Sui'an's wind-blown hair. His fingers stopped half a centimeter away from the temples, paused, and put them away again, "As long as it's your thing, you must take it back."
Lin Sui'an: "...ah?"
"We are partners, we live and die together, we share weal and woe, Wu Chun is not provoking you, but us!" Hua Yitang looked solemn, "Now, we have recovered Yangdu, Dongdu, Guangdu and Yidu Jingmen still hasn’t found the truly useful Ten Pure Collections, but Wu Chun, an outsider, dares to swear that his is the most complete preserved fragment of the Andu Yidu branch, and there must be something fishy in it.”
Lin Sui'an suddenly came back to his senses, and quickly replayed the scene of the previous battle with Wu Chun in his mind, "Do you suspect that this collection of ten nets comes from another net sect, or - that third master?"
Hua Yitang raised his eyebrows, "It's worth a gamble, isn't it?"
Lin Sui'an's eyes brightened, "It's worth it!"
Hua Yitang was so proud that he waved his small fan, bang bang bang—bah bang da—bah chirp chirp—
Eh? what sound?
Lin Sui'an's ears twitched, and following the sound, he saw a young man and woman hugging each other, rubbing their ears and temples together, and secretly kissing each other from time to time.
Lin Sui'an was shocked: Has the Tang national customs been open to this extent?
But when she turned around and took a closer look, she was shocked to realize that the Feihong Bridge was actually filled with couples of men and women, hugging their waists, holding hands, and whispering... This place was actually a romantic dating spot.
Hua Yitang looked away uncomfortably, shaking the small fan very fast, but the more he shook it, the hotter his face became. He hummed and laughed for a long time, not knowing what words to use to get through.
"That...this...uh...Hua doesn't know...here...here...there...uh-Lin Sui'an, what are you doing?!"
Lin Sui'an didn't do anything shocking. He just stretched his neck, raised his ears, and tiptoed, trying to eavesdrop on the whispers of the young couple next door.
Hua Yitang's face instantly turned black. He grabbed Lin Sui'an's hand and dragged him away, "What's there to see? Let's go, go, go!"
Lin Sui'an: "Oh, oh, wait, wait, let me take a look."
"What are you looking at! Go home!"
"Look over there - oh, so fierce!"
"Close your eyes! Close your ears! Close your brain!"
Under the moonlight, the flower-like boy led the girl with a gossipy face across the Feihong Bridge and ran into the lights of thousands of houses. The girl's laughter accompanied the boy's chatter, as gentle as the night wind.
small theater
Hua's Ninety-nine Houses.
Mu Xia hummed a song, framed Hua Yitang's painstaking masterpiece, and hung it up high.
“The silvery light flows through the water, and the longing for each other is endless;
The lingering spring feeling is deep in my heart, I fall in love at first sight and pray for my life to grow old. "
Mu Xia looked left and right, and the more she looked, the more worried she became.
"Shiro seems to have forgotten the rhyme in this love poem. Isn't Mrs. Lin going to dislike it?":,,
