"Tch, what a gambling monster, I think you're just a clod of dirt."
Worried that Qingya could not withstand the temptation of money, Hua Qing'er turned on her sister mode again: "Junior brother, we practitioners should abandon distracting thoughts in our hearts and pursue the supreme path wholeheartedly. We must not be contaminated by these worldly bad habits."
Seeing Hua Qing'er's serious posture, Qing Ya also imitated the old-fashioned elders with white hair and beards in the sect. He clasped his fists with his hands, made a Tai Chi Yin and Yang seal, and answered in a high tone:
"Thank you, Senior Sister, for your guidance. Junior Brother was like an enlightenment, and his words woke up the dreamer. To express my gratitude, I can only express my gratitude with my body. I don't know what Senior Sister's intention is."
"Pfft", before he finished speaking, Qingya was the first to burst into laughter.
"You're making fun of me again. Let's see if I don't strangle you to death." After saying that, Hua Qing'er rushed forward and tried to pinch Qing Ya's cheek.
Seeing her flying towards her, Qing Ya took advantage of the situation and took hold of her Hao wrist. The delicate and silky touch made Qing Ya want to keep holding it.
"Between heaven and earth, people are like a drop in the ocean, and the so-called gambling skills are just heresy. Even the senior God of Gamblers made too many enemies in the casino, and all three of his wives were killed. In the end, he could only live in seclusion in the world to avoid strife.
Later, he set a rule for his disciples: 95% of all the money they earned should be used for charity, and they would make good friends in the world. This ended the dispute.
Even if he is as strong as the God of Gamblers, he cannot escape the disaster. Therefore, if you make a bet, you will be ruined if you touch it. Most of the human tragedies of losing one's family, losing one's property, and being separated from one's children are caused by this, and it is actually the source of all evil. "
Qing Ya said quietly, and Hua Qing'er listened quietly. The two of them kept holding their hands, and they didn't know who forgot to put them down.
"Where did this little kid come from? He said such a thing in a casino. He really thinks he is some kind of saint. He is being ridiculous."
It wasn't until someone interrupted them that the two of them got out of each other's eyes. Qingya was too embarrassed to continue holding Hua Qing'er's wrist.
After letting go of her hands, Qingya unconsciously sniffed with his fingers, looking like he was greedily sucking the lingering fragrance of Hua Qing'er on his fingers.
Although the two of them had a good relationship, such ambiguous actions still made Hua Qing'er blush with embarrassment.
She lowered her head and asked quietly: "Then where should we go next?"
Qingya looked up at the second floor and said, "It seems that we can't find any useful information here. If we want to continue to inquire, we have to keep going up."
After saying that, he pulled Hua Qing'er towards the entrance of the second floor.
On the first floor of Yingyue Tower, people were coming and going, and they were playing with common things. Going further up, there are some people who are either rich or noble.
In order to distinguish themselves from the so-called common people, some children of aristocratic families and wealthy businessmen also pursue more youthful ways of playing games, such as flying flowers, throwing pots, palm Cuju and other games that are quite popular among the upper class.
Going further up, there are some things that are not easy to explain to outsiders.
Although the guard at the entrance to the second floor had never seen Qingya and the others, he knew from their clothes that the two in front of them were definitely not ordinary ordinary people. What's more, just now Qing Ya was killing everyone at the gambling table. If there is such an enemy who rushes to give money, he will naturally not stop him.
After all, it's the Golden Grotto that blooms at night. Even the corridor leading to the second floor is decorated with the utmost luxury. The handrails next to it are all carved from mahogany, and the dragons and phoenixes roar, as if they are about to burst out of the wood.
The carpet under your feet is the unique wool carpet of Sailimu Lake under the Tianshan Mountains. When you step on it, you feel like you are in the clouds. Even at every corner of the stairs, there is a girl with a beautiful face and graceful figure, giving a real and sweet smile to the guests. Well, at least it does look sweet on the surface.
Walking in front of Qingya was a man who looked like the son of a high-ranking official. He was dressed in rich clothes, with a folding fan dangling in his hand. He walked lightly, and was followed by three or five followers. The cannon fodder mentioned in the story probably looked like this. Yes.
I saw the man talking loudly while walking towards one of the girls. Without saying a word, he stepped forward and hugged her waist. At the same time, he took out a stack of banknotes and stuffed them into her collar. He was still a little angry. The woman immediately beamed with joy, and in turn hugged his arm and walked forward together, leaving Qing Ya behind him stunned for a moment.
"Is this really possible?" Qingya blurted out a question unconsciously.
"Hmph, man." Hua Qing'er next to him sneered after hearing this, and hurriedly dragged Qing Ya's arm forward.
Knowing that he had touched her again, Qingya could only obediently be dragged forward by her.
If only Qing'er could hold my arm, strange thoughts came to Qingya's head.
After walking up the long stairs, the chaotic shouts just now gradually faded away, and the sound of silk and bamboo gradually became clearer in my ears. When I climbed the last few steps, what appeared in front of Qingya was a magnificent wine pond and meat forest.
If Huaying Tower means elegance, then this place means luxury. The golden pillars with dragons, painted pillars and beams with flying phoenixes, and the luminous pearls the size of fists illuminate the place like daytime, but with the golden glow of candlelight. Even the wine vessels in the hands of the maids coming and going are gold cups and silver pots, which is good for wealth.
In the center of the hall was a dance floor large enough to accommodate dozens of people, surrounded by small rooms separated by screens, forming a circle around the dance floor. At this time, there were more than a dozen dancers kneeling in the middle of the dance floor, holding a quiver in their hands. Outside the dance floor, a rich young man was holding an arrow cluster and aiming at the quiver in the hand of one of the dancers. Of course, this arrow cluster There is no arrow.
"Hey," with a soft shout, the arrow in the man's hand drew an arc in the air, and fell weakly before it reached the person.
With a snap, the arrow cluster fell briskly to the ground, and the corresponding dancer just slowly picked up the arrow cluster and exited the dance floor.
"In the third round, Mr. Xue is eliminated. The total bonus has reached nine thousand taels."
Seeing his bet being included in the prize pool, Mr. Xue had no regrets. He thought that these thousands of taels of silver were just a drop in the bucket to him.
"Hey, whose young master is this? He is such a handsome young man, but he has a tight face." The croupier who presided over the gambling game, a mature woman, still charming, waved the cattail leaf fan in his hand and said to Qingya walked in and joked.
"Young Master, this gambling game has already begun. Do you want to wait for the next round to start, or do you want to join a player to participate."
After that, she looked around again, then chuckled and said: "Oh, there seems to be no more room. Is anyone here willing to partner with this young master?"
Everyone looked at Qingya, but no one expressed their opinion. After all, no one was willing to cooperate with a stranger. Some people even laughed disdainfully and said: "Where did you come from, you little yellow-haired boy. Do you know how big it is to play here? You'd better take your little sweetheart and set off the river lanterns, hahaha."
While everyone was joking about Qing Ya, there was a pair of eyes that kept looking at him.
Let’s talk about the unparalleled woman in red. When she was drunk and had her eyes closed, she heard the noisy laughter around her. She frowned in dissatisfaction and slowly opened her phoenix eyes to see what was going on around her.
Then, she saw Qingya standing not far away, the young man she had met three years ago.
