At dawn and chen hour, Yingou Gambling House.
Compared with many years ago, this place is bigger and more impressive. The original two-story gambling house took up about one house. Now it is three times larger than before. Even the outside is surrounded by a high white wall. Yes, there are two stone sculptures of Pixiu beasts squatting at the door, with teeth and claws. The uneducated Jingkou rough guys will think that these are just ordinary stone lions, but people with a bit of education will only secretly think when they see this mythical beast that only eats but does not vomit. Sigh, indeed, as the casino's home beast, this is perfect.
A thin farmer of medium height, carrying a hoe, patrolled back and forth at the entrance of the gambling house. Although it was just after midnight, in this Jingkou city, only the casino was different from all other shops. You could stay up all night here. , never closed, people kept coming out in groups, and from time to time some people with annoyed faces came out of it shaking their heads and sighing. In less than an hour, at least three or four people were still wearing their clothes when they entered. She was neatly dressed, and the gauze wrapped around her waist was bulging. After a while, she was naked, only wearing a pair of underwear, and she was reluctantly pushed out of it.
The farmer was dressed like Liu Yu after his disguise. He had been observing here for a while. Among the people who entered, there were many familiar faces, and the thugs standing guard outside the door. There were also many acquaintances from the Beifu Army, most of whom were followers of Liu Yu and Zhuge Changmin. He even saw Zhuge Changmin's muscular second brother, Zhuge Limin, swaggering out from inside and walking around. He was dressed in silk and satin, and was rich and noble. Compared with those Beifu brothers who were naked and had lost all their money, he was obviously from two different worlds.
A guy who lost all he had was a pair of calf-nosed trousers, was thrown out of the gambling room by a few big and thick men, and fell to the ground outside the door with a thud. Several guards guarded the courtyard. The big wolfdog barked at him.
This man jumped up from a carp on the ground. It can be seen that this guy has a lot of kung fu, which can also be seen from the bulging muscles on his body. Even if Liu Yu saw him from behind, he couldn't help but secretly give a shout. . Only now did he see clearly that he was just a young man of about seventeen or eighteen years old, with a dark face and thick eyebrows connected at the center of his eyebrows.
Zhuge Limin frowned, turned around, and said coldly to the young man with thick eyebrows: "Liu Zhong, what's the matter? You lost all your money, you're not convinced, and you want to cheat, right?"
Liu Yu suddenly had an idea in his mind. He thought that when he went to Chang'an to seize the jade seal, he passed by Xingyang and rescued the two brothers Wang Yi. There was also a young man named Liu Zhong, whose ancestral home was Pengcheng. At that time, he said he was going to Qingzhou went to seek refuge with his relatives. He was extremely courageous in his early years. Unexpectedly, he had grown so strong after not seeing him for so many years. Heroes have been born since ancient times.
Liu Zhong jumped up from the ground, patted the dust on his body, and said in a deep voice: "You are cheating on me, you are not a good man, pay me back the money you cheated me of!"
Zhuge Limin's face darkened: "Liu Zhong, what are you talking about? This is a government-run gambling house. Children and old men are innocent. You said you were cheating. Do you have any evidence?"
Liu Zhong sneered and said: "You guys, when you play dice, you will yell at the end. With this roar, the dice will roll and turn into the color you want. Isn't this a thousand?"
Zhuge Limin said coldly: "Which gambler doesn't know howl? What gambler doesn't know howl? You are unlucky. If you lose, you will say that someone else paid you a thousand dollars. Then you can also yell at me, little brother. , the rules of the casino, you have to cash out the stolen money. Isn’t it too unruly for you to say there is a problem now that you have lost money? We are all Beifu soldiers, we have to be reasonable, right? How many days do you want to rely on yourself to be a pawn? As a soldier, do you want to forcefully suppress the casino and falsely accuse people?"
Liu Zhong's face turned red, he gritted his teeth and said bitterly: "I don't believe it, how many Jingkou fellows have you won like this? Is it true that the luck will always be yours?"
Zhuge Limin laughed: "Brother Liu, this is gambling. Sometimes some people are lucky and sometimes they are unlucky. How can there be people who are always unlucky or always lucky? You are not lucky today. Just come back tomorrow. Go back."
Liu Zhong stomped his feet bitterly: "No, today I, I lost all the money I paid for my mother's medical treatment. This is life-saving money. Zhuge, second brother Zhuge, please do a good job and tell the manager in the closet. , Even if, even if I owe the money, I can pay it back tomorrow, can it be done?"
Zhuge Limin waved his hand impatiently: "This is your business, what does it have to do with me, Liu Zhong, seeing that you are a brother of Beifu, that's why I let you talk so much nonsense, don't be ignorant and hinder our business here. .”
He said, with a fierce look in his eyes, and with a wave of his hand, more than a dozen guards jumped out from the courtyard, all holding knives and sticks, lying across their chests, in a fighting stance.
Liu Zhong was so sad and angry that he looked up to the sky and laughed: "Look, look, this is our brother from Beifu? Wang Fu, Liu Banlin, you are all on the same team as me, can you just bear to attack me?"
The two sturdy guards lowered their heads in shame, and one named Wang Fu sighed: "Liu Zhong, we are just like you. We lost all our money here not long ago and owed a large debt. We have no choice but to You can pay back the money by staying here as a guard. If you are really short of money, you might as well stay here as a guard."
Liu Zhong stamped his feet and shouted: "No, you still have brothers at home. I am the only one in my family. I am here. What will happen to my mother? I just came out to give her medicine today. I can't afford it so I came here." Try your luck!"
Zhuge Limin sneered and said: "Liu Zhong, these are your business, not ours. Our place is a gambling house, not a porridge shed, not a dining hall. If you are short of money, you can ask your fellow villagers for help, or you can ask Beifu for help." Old brothers in the army are borrowing money. For the sake of you and me wearing the same uniform, I can let you go now. If you continue to linger here, be careful and I will send you to see the official!"
A burst of laughter came from the gambling house: "Oh my, why is this necessary? Brother Liu Zhong, you want to take medicine for my mother, you should have told me earlier, let alone come here to borrow this gambling debt?"
Following this burst of laughter, I saw a strong man walking out of the door. He was dressed in jewels and treasures. He looked like a rich country man. However, his silk and satin clothes could not hide his well-developed muscles. When he walked, he looked as if This outfit is going to burst at any time, isn't it none other than Zhuge Changmin, the eldest of the three Zhuge brothers and the famous leader of the Beifu Army.
