The rules of treasure gambling are very simple. The two sides of the bet each choose a treasure in the treasure hunting area, remove the sealing runes, and then let the appraiser determine how many gold coins each treasure is worth.
The side with less gold coins loses.
The losing party not only has to pay the bet, but also has to hand over the selected treasure to the winning party.
This is a very common way of playing in the Xia Kingdom. Whether it is the Wanzhen Pavilion or the Treasure Pavilion such as the Qibao Hall, there is gambling for treasures.
Gambling not only brings the fun of treasure hunting, but also the thrill of gambling, and is sought after by many people.
The Great Xia Kingdom will also unite with major treasure pavilions to hold regular gambling competitions. If you win in the national finals, you will not only receive top rewards, but also be hired by the palace or major treasure pavilions to reach the pinnacle of life.
"Lin Yu, as the fiancé of Miss Shen San, you are not too timid to gamble, are you?"
Chen Hongyun looked provocative. He was here to humiliate Lin Yu, a peerless genius who was once admired by everyone, in order to gain a sense of satisfaction and superiority.
"Just bet!"
Lin Yu smiled coldly, since this fat man is so ignorant, let's show him some color.
"You're a waste of a woman. I don't think you have much money. How about we bet ten gold coins?"
Chen Hongyun was full of contempt, and his words were extremely insulting.
"You kept calling me trash. I thought you were trying too hard. It turns out the bet was only ten gold coins. It's really rubbish."
Lin Yu argued with each other. He didn't respond well to the bastard who kept looking for trouble. He said coldly: "Do you dare to bet a hundred gold coins?"
"One hundred gold coins?"
Upon hearing this, Chen Hongyun was stunned, and then became ecstatic. He was afraid that Lin Yu would not dare to accept too high a gold coin, so he said ten gold coins.
Unexpectedly, this fool would automatically shout for one hundred gold coins.
It's really just sending money to your door. If you don't make money, you won't make it in vain.
He quickly agreed: "Okay, we will bet one hundred gold coins, and everyone present will be asked to be witnesses."
As soon as these words came out, many people immediately gathered to watch.
"Wow, someone is betting as much as one hundred gold coins. Come and watch."
"Who are these two people, making such a big gamble?"
"This is the third son of the Chen family, and that is the good-for-nothing fiancé of Miss Shen. They are both very famous people."
"Miss Shen San is a fairy-like woman, who is this person and how can he be worthy of her?"
"He was once Lin Yu, the eldest son of the Lin family. He was extremely talented. However, because of stealing and molesting the princess, his legs were broken by the Lin family. He was thrown out of the family and became the unwanted son-in-law of the Shen family."
…
The crowd was talking a lot and looked excited.
"According to the rules, we have to hand over the gambling money and hand it over to the treasure appraiser for safekeeping."
Seeing that the crowd was getting bigger and bigger, Chen Hongyun took out a gold ticket engraved with one hundred gold coins and said with a pretentious expression: "This is just my pocket money for a month, trash, where are your gold coins?"
Lin Yu said lightly: "I don't have gold coins."
As soon as these words came out, the whole place was in an uproar.
"Trash, you don't have any gold coins, and you bet me a hundred gold coins. Are you kidding me? If you break the rules of gambling, it won't matter if I beat you to death."
Chen Hongyun was furious, rolled up his sleeves, and was about to step forward and beat Lin Yu.
"Don't hit my young master, I have a spiritual weapon that can be worth gold coins."
At this moment, Xiaoxiang's voice came from behind.
Hearing this, everyone looked sideways, and then automatically made way for Xiaoxiang to squeeze in.
"Xiaoxiang, why are you here? Didn't I ask you to take care of the old man?" Lin Yu's heart tightened. If the old beggar got lost, then he and Xiaoxiang would have no protective umbrella.
"Sir, I'm sorry. I was worried about you, so I helped the old man to the second floor. He is resting on the wooden bench at the door."
Xiaoxiang lowered her head and pulled her sleeves with her little hands, looking like she had done something wrong.
Lin Yu was worried that the old man was lost, so he said: "Go back and look at the old man quickly. Don't let him get lost. You are not needed here."
"Sir, then you use your bracelet as gambling money, and I will go back right away."
Xiaoxiang took off the bracelet in her hand and handed it to Lin Yu.
"Xiaoxiang, this is the only thing your parents left you. How can I use it as gambling money?"
Lin Yu waved his hand to refuse, and continued: "Although I don't have gold coins, I do have gambling money. This is a seven-feather cloth of a medium-grade spiritual weapon. It is worth two hundred gold coins. If it is 150 gold coins, it's no problem."
As he spoke, he took out a handkerchief embroidered with dragons and phoenixes and names.
"Sir, this is a love token given to you by Miss Shen San. How can you use it as gambling money?"
When Xiaoxiang saw this, her expression changed drastically.
"It's okay. She doesn't like me anyway. What's the use of this love token? It's better to pawn it and buy some treasures."
Lin Yu looked nonchalant and spoke lightly.
Although he inherited the memories and some emotions from his predecessor, he did not have the same infatuation with Shen Yufeng as his predecessor.
"Sir, don't talk nonsense. Miss Shen San has always liked you."
Xiaoxiang was afraid that this word would reach the Shen family, so she was panicked and quickly persuaded: "Hurry up and put away the handkerchief and use my bracelet as gambling money."
"Xiaoxiang, your bracelet is a thousand times more important than this piece of cloth. How can I use it as gambling money?"
Lin Yu said with a serious face: "Now you go and take care of the old man immediately. Don't worry about it here."
Seeing that her young master had made up his mind, Xiaoxiang sighed softly, turned around and walked towards the old beggar.
"Lin Yu, Shen Yufeng!"
Seeing the two shining golden names on the handkerchief, as well as the image of a dragon and a phoenix singing together, Chen Hongyun became jealous and said angrily:
"Lin Yu, you don't care about Yufeng's handkerchief so much. You deserve to be damned if you let her down. I not only want to win the handkerchief back for Yufeng, but I also want to teach you a lesson."
"Third Young Master, come on, win Miss Shen San's handkerchief back and let her know your sincerity."
"Third Young Master, your opportunity has come..."
On the sidelines, Chen Hongyun's men praised him vigorously.
"Whether you win this handkerchief depends on your ability."
Lin Yu picked up the seven-feather cloth handkerchief, handed it to the white-bearded treasure appraiser who came slowly, and said respectfully: "Senior, please keep the bet money."
"Trash, I will definitely win."
Chen Hongyun came over and handed the gold ticket of 100 gold coins to the white-bearded appraiser. He looked at Lin Yu with a proud smile on his lips: "I forgot to tell you that I have been admitted as a treasure appraiser apprentice."
"I didn't expect Mr. Chen San to be a treasure appraiser's apprentice. Lin Yu will definitely lose this time."
"If this good-for-nothing fiancé loses his love token, let's see what he will do when he returns to the Shen family."
"For humiliating the Shen family in this way, he will either be beaten to death or kicked out of the Shen family. He is seeking his own death and deserves it!"
"Waiting for the former genius to lose miserably..."
…
Whether on Earth or in the Tianyuan world, there are always people who add insult to injury and take pleasure in others' misfortunes.
Lin Yu once stood high above the sky, like the rising sun, and everyone could only look up and admire him.
Nowadays, Lin Yu has not only lost all his cultivation, but has also been kicked out of the royal family and has become a useless person. Many people feel extremely satisfied and can't help but humiliate and tease the former genius to get a sense of spiritual satisfaction.
"It's time to start."
Chen Hongyun beamed with joy and said as if he had a chance to win: "Trash, I want to show you what a treasure-hunting master is."
