Lin Ji never imagined that an underground casino in this small Sishui County could produce millions of taels of silver notes.
Ten thousand taels a piece, a full hundred pieces.
When he walked out of the casino, he could feel the eyes behind him like knives that wanted to cut him into pieces.
It’s not like the casino didn’t want to fall out.
When Lin Ji won the sixth hand, they had already settled in Bengbu and drove away all the gamblers.
Then there is the popular show where thugs come on stage and the gangsters eat the gangsters.
Obviously, Lin Ji is darker.
After he dealt with the thugs, he forced the casino to gamble with him dozens more times, and each time he won directly bet on the amount he won.
So when he left the casino, in addition to the one million taels of silver notes, he also had several IOUs with ridiculously large amounts. .
"Brother Lin, can they pay back so much money?" Huang Cui was still surprised by the amount on the IOU.
Lin Ji casually rubbed the IOU and threw it on the ground.
According to the scale of this heavy rain, the IOU will be washed away by the rain in a few hours.
"Why did you lose it?"
"Not a single person in the casino just now survived. They murdered hundreds of people in a few years. Their fate was to be beheaded in public." Lin Ji said, "They are just ordinary people. It's not my turn to deal with it. Now I have to find them." It’s the mastermind behind this.”
"How to find it?"
"It's just a dream tonight." Lin Ji sneered. "Every night, I am told that gambling can make me rich. Now that I have really made a fortune, I would like to see if there are any new tricks."
While talking, Lin Ji subconsciously touched his chest with his hand.
That strange power has become more and more powerful. Every time he comes out of the casino, the power will become stronger.
The dreams he saw became more and more real.
For the first time in his dream, he could still see it from the perspective of a bystander, which was the consciousness dominated by his soul.
But yesterday, he had completely transformed into a dreamer. Apart from knowing that he was dreaming, everything else was the same as reality.
"If nothing goes wrong, it will be difficult for me to distinguish between dreams and reality tonight." Lin Ji looked at Huang Cui, "If there is any danger, it's up to you."
Huang Cui nodded heavily, her expression becoming more solemn.
...
Late at night, in the inn room.
Lin Ji fell asleep slowly.
I don't know how much time passed before he woke up.
"Why didn't you dream? That's strange."
Just as he was muttering to himself, Huang Cui beside him also woke up.
"Brother Lin, what's going on?"
"I don't know. Maybe the other party saw something and was on guard? Now it's really troublesome..." Lin Ji frowned a little irritably, "Once this clue is broken, where can we find new clues?"
Huang Cui pondered for a moment and said: "Then we can only wait for the next person to die in vain. Maybe this matter is not just related to the casino."
Lin Ji nodded.
"What you said makes sense, that's all. If you don't want to think about this, go down and have something to eat first." Lin Ji stood up and took Huang Cui out of the room.
When we arrived at the lobby of the inn, we still had a pot of seafood porridge and a few side dishes.
While eating, Lin Ji suddenly heard the conversation between the new shopkeeper and the waiter.
"You can go find a carpenter from the county later. I checked last night and it seems that the roof has been damaged by water. This matter cannot be delayed."
"Ah?" The waiter was surprised, and he saw water dripping from an inconspicuous place in the lobby.
"Damn it, this is the first time I've seen such heavy rain in so many years. Shopkeeper, I'll be there later." The waiter responded quickly.
Hearing their conversation, Lin Ji subconsciously looked up at the roof.
The wooden beams seemed to be somewhat rotten due to the heavy rain for days.
Click.
A low crisp sound.
Just when Lin Ji felt strange, the beam suddenly broke, and half of the roof fell down, hitting Lin Ji directly.
Rumble...
Smoke and dust spread everywhere, and were quickly extinguished by heavy rain.
Half of the entire inn collapsed, and the original lobby became an open-air terrace.
All sounds around him stopped suddenly.
Even the rain all over the sky has stopped. What has not yet fallen is hanging in the air, and what has fallen has stirred up water splashes on the ground, and the water splashes have stagnated.
Everything stopped.
It's like the pause button has been pressed.
Suddenly, a voice sounded.
It's yellow and green.
"break!"
Her voice was not loud, just a soft sound, and everything around her suddenly disappeared and turned into darkness.
Huang Cui appeared in the darkness. She just stretched out her hand and grabbed something. With a slight tug, Lin Ji was pulled out by her and also appeared in the darkness.
At the same time, the moment Lin Ji appeared, he suddenly opened his eyes.
"Huh...!" Lin Ji sat up from the bed, feeling a little unreal.
He tried pinching his arm, but felt a little pain but still felt uneasy.
Looking at Huang Cui, he saw that Huang Cui had also woken up.
"I'm really awake." Huang Cui said.
Lin Ji smiled bitterly.
"It's... unbelievable. What kind of method does it take to make me, a monk in the Sun Traveling Realm, unable to distinguish between dreams and reality?"
At the moment when he was hit by the beam, Lin Ji even thought he was really going to die.
He forgot who he was. He just felt that if he was hit by a beam, he would definitely die.
If Huang Cui hadn't rescued him, when Lin Ji woke up again, he didn't know what kind of price he would have to bear.
Or, simply never wake up again?
All in all, Lin Ji finally felt a little scared this time.
"Actually, there is no need to be too afraid." Huang Cui said from the side, "Brother Lin, the reason you fell into this situation is the result of conniving at the other party's methods many times in a row. It took so many days of arrangement to achieve this point. The person who did it is The method is actually not too subtle.”
"Isn't this wonderful?" Lin Ji didn't know if Huang Cui was serious for a moment.
Huang Cui solemnly said: "My dream bug can also do this. After setting it up for several days in a row, step by step, people can't tell the truth from the false."
"Is that so..." Lin Ji breathed a sigh of relief.
Lin Ji obviously didn't know much more about dreams than Huang Cui. Since Huang Cui dared to swear like this, Lin Ji would not disbelieve it either.
But I always have to be wary.
There was little progress in the case, so Lin Ji simply stopped thinking about it and took Huang Cui downstairs to the lobby.
The seafood porridge at this inn was really good. Lin Ji ordered a pot and some side dishes.
I always feel a sense of déjà vu.
"Speaking of which, did this dream also change according to the habits in my consciousness?" Lin Ji said with a smile.
Huang Cui nodded and said: "Of course, the so-called dream is formed by the consciousness of the dreamer, and entering a dream is just a matter of taking advantage of the situation."
At this moment, the waiter on the side had just served Lin Ji food. Before he could leave, he was stopped by the shopkeeper.
"You can go find a carpenter from the county later. I checked last night and it seems that the roof has been damaged by water. This matter cannot be delayed."
