"Buzz"
The smile on Shen Wansan's face became much stiffer.
But he could only watch the guest wearing the mysterious Nuo mask leave.
Dark flames began to burn, burning on every dice, on every table, on everything that belonged to the "casino".
Shen Wansan suddenly raised his arm.
Dark flames burned on his arms at some point.
"Why?!"
Shen Wansan shouted in confusion. He was no longer the owner of the casino, let alone something belonging to the casino. Why was he burned? !
"No! This is impossible!"
Dark flames covered Shen Wansan's whole body as he screamed in despair.
Those who exist based on ancient buildings will naturally no longer exist after losing their due value.
Obviously, Shen Wansan forgot this.
For employees who no longer have any value to the company, there is only one outcome, which is to be fired.
As the first richest man in the Ming Dynasty, Shen Wansan obviously forgot his instinct as a businessman.
That's cost savings.
As for why it burned together with the casino, it can only be said to be a coincidence.
Because the new owner of the casino issued a self-destruction order while liquidating the casino.
Jiang Qi took one last look at the casino burning with black fire.
really.
When I first stepped into this ancient building, I felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity here.
The current Black Fire is at least a piece of evidence.
Black fire is not something that the ancient building itself has, Jiang Qi can be sure.
Because just after Jiang Qi issued the self-destruct command through the token in his hand that could control the entire casino, the black fire burned.
In this process, Gulou has only one action.
That is to "expose" a part of one's being.
Then came the Black Fire.
Just existing can attract the Black Fire who is the "threshold limiter".
As I said before, the mechanism of Black Fire is not controlled by anything, it is just a spontaneous stress mechanism.
The Black Fire appears when you see something you shouldn't.
Jiang Qi is very experienced in this, he is an old friend.
And what if we put this law here? It means that the entire ancient building is something that should not be seen, or is not allowed to exist.
But in this case, shouldn't Gulou try its best to hide its existence?
Why would you actively expose part of your existence just to "clean it up" with black fire?
This is a bit courageous. Anyway, if Panlongpei is full, Jiang Qi will not dare to play like this.
So, will the answer lie on the third level?
Jiang Qitai glanced at the seemingly endless spiral staircase.
Then he slowly stepped forward.
Behind him, this time were four people.
In addition to Lao Qian and the head of Shushan, there are also the two dealers just now.
According to the rules of the ancient building, these two people are now Jiang Qi's property.
Yes, in the judgment of the ancient building, the existence that relies on the ancient building is not a person, but an object.
However, Jiang Qi doesn't have time to deal with these details now. There are still two people on his side who have not been fished out.
All the way to the third floor, there is another translucent ice blue door.
The difference is that behind this door, many figures can be vaguely seen wandering.
Faint, various fragrances wafted out from the cracks in the door.
The aroma of wine, rice, vegetables, and meat.
Full of fireworks.
"Squeak"
Just when Jiang Qi was about to lift his leg and kick again, the door slowly opened.
"Welcome three guests!"
"Should we serve as top-notch guests or stay in a hotel for the three guests?"
As soon as we entered, we heard a burst of enthusiasm.
A young man wearing shorts and dressed as a waiter in a store was smiling and bending down to wait.
Three?
Lao Qian couldn't help but look back.
Shouldn't it be five?
Lao Qian's doubts were answered the next moment.
"It's rare for guests like you three to bring their own ingredients!"
The waiter looked at Liuli and Peony, who were huddled at the back, and made professional suggestions.
“We don’t have many top-quality ingredients like this.”
"Would you like it steamed or braised?"
Ingredients?
Can people eat here? ! !
Lao Qian and the head of Shushan were shocked.
Liuli and Mudan were even more pale, they seemed to know something.
Jiang Qi heard this, but did not answer, just looked around.
It's a tavern, no doubt about it.
Because there are guests on the eight Eight Immortals tables. There are all kinds of delicacies on the tables, but the only thing that is indispensable is wine.
The strong aroma of wine spreads in every corner.
"Guest, we are full now. Do you think we can share a table?"
The waiter also took a look, and then said with an apologetic smile.
Jiang Qi did not answer, but went to an Eight Immortals table and sat down.
There is only one guest at this Eight Immortals table, and that is Jiang Shouzhen.
Jiang Shouzhen sat there with a very ugly expression on his face. The table in front of him was filled with delicacies and fine wine, but he did not move even a single chopstick.
Until Jiang Qi sat over, Jiang Shouzhen was stunned at first, and then looked uncontrollably ecstatic.
"Senior, you."
Just as he was about to speak, Jiang Qi raised his hand and interrupted.
The group of people sat down one after another, including Liuli and Mudan.
"Huh? Guest, you don't want to eat?"
After the waiter saw this scene, he smacked his lips with regret, took out a menu from somewhere, and said with a smile: "Then please order."
After that, he stood aside and waited quietly.
“Can’t order it!”
Jiang Shouzhen said suddenly.
"Can't click, can't have any connection with this place!"
Jiang Shouzhen said solemnly: "Once you order the food, sooner or later you will become the food!"
As soon as these words came out, Lao Qian and the head of Shushan looked at Senior Nuo Mian.
It seems that this tavern on the third floor, like the casino just now, is a place with special rules!
"Don't be afraid, sir, this is just a little rule of our intestinal poison tavern."
The waiter smiled and said: "You can't go out even if you don't order. Sooner or later you will die here. In this case, why not just enjoy the unique taste of the world here."
"This way, my trip to this world is not in vain, don't you think?"
Jiang Shouzhen sighed helplessly, pointed to the dishes on the table and said: "If you don't order the dishes, your cultivation will be swallowed up, and you will die sooner or later. If you order the dishes, it will only be consumed if you don't eat them. If you eat them, they will become ingredients."
"No matter what, the final result will not be good."
It seems that Jiang Shouzhen discovered that this place would swallow up cultivation, so he ordered the food to preserve his strength.
But this behavior is tantamount to drinking poison to quench thirst.
Fortunately, Jiang Shouzhen's decision was correct, and the savior finally arrived.
"Actually, if you ask me, guest, just leave these two ingredients to us. You will definitely not be disappointed."
The waiter looked at Liuli and Mudan again.
"Why do you say they are ingredients?"
Jiang Qi asked.
"Because they are not human beings. They are objects just like the little ones. Objects naturally have different uses in different places."
The waiter answered matter-of-factly.
"how about you?"
Jiang Qi suddenly looked at the waiter.
"Of course, small ones can also be used as ingredients. If you want to order, I suggest boiling small ones instead of boiling small ones. The meat quality of small ones is widely praised."
The waiter said quite proudly.
Widely acclaimed?
In other words, the guy in front of me has been eaten, and more than once?
But now that I and others can still see the waiter, it is self-evident what has become of the customers who have eaten after him.
"clatter."
A soft sound.
Jiang Qi placed the ice blue token on the table and said, "Call your boss over."
"Huh?"
The waiter was stunned for a moment, then smiled more flatteringly.
"It turns out he's the big boss of Xia Shanhu. I'm really blind. Wait a minute. I'm going to call the shopkeeper right now!"
