C606 The War of the Gambling House
As soon as he entered the gambling house, Lin San's eyes lit up and he saw a gambler crying for his mother after losing.
"Little Brother, how about you try a few moves?" Lin San said excitedly.
Zhang Haorann rolled his eyes at Lin San, "Don't you know that any gambling house in Luo King Realm forbids Half Immortal from joining?"
Lin San was stunned. That's right, how could he forget about that? Half Immortals could watch, but they couldn't gamble. Furthermore, there were strict surveillance here, so normal people were not allowed to mess with the Half Immortal's Gang.
Thinking about this, Lin San could only say: "Lil 'Bro, I'm going to look around. If you need anything, just shout out my name. I'm coming."
"Yes." Zhang Haorann nodded. After Lin San left, Zhang Haorann walked towards the young men who just entered the restaurant. The closer they got to the door, the more familiar the smell was as if they were buying Apple's Wu Steel.
It was the smell of a Spirit Bead Heaven Bamboo.
The clothes they wore were all made from high-grade workshops. Moreover, when they entered the gambling house, they were very careful and were afraid that others would notice them. At a glance, they were obviously rookies who rarely came to this place.
In other words, it wasn't that they didn't come often, but rather, they hadn't come at all.
Zhang Haorann saw that these young men did not gamble and only watched others gamble.
"Are these people related to the mysterious seller?" Zhang Haorann was curious. Zhang Haorann was not interested in the 180 treasures that the Lin Prefecture Auction House was going to auction, he was only interested in the Spirit Bead Heaven Bamboo.
Out of the five youths, the leader was surnamed Kong. He wanted to gamble, but he couldn't.
"Brother Kong, why don't you come?" A young man quipped.
"That's right, Brother Kong. Didn't you always tell us that after leaving the family, it would be the chance to see the world?"
"Brother Kong, show me your skills!"
"I'm waiting to see Brother Kong perform."
The four youths began to jeer at him. The youth called Brother Kong turned his head and said, "Let's not talk anymore. Can I have a good look at him?"
"Brother Kong, are you sure you don't want to bet?" a young man asked.
"Bet your ass!" This is something that a Half Immortal cannot gamble on! " Brother Kong was dissatisfied.
"Ah! Then Brother Kong, you said that you were gambling on yourself?" A young man held his breath, thinking that he could see Brother Kong's reaction.
"Alright, alright, stop talking. Just watch it properly with me." After saying that, Brother Kong turned his head with an excited look on his face.
At this moment, a middle-aged man walked up to Brother Kong's side.
"This little brother, welcome to Shiyong Town. I am the person in charge of the gambling house, I can allow you to come a few times." The middle-aged man chuckled, "As long as the people from Kong Family are happy, that's good."
"A bet?" Brother Kong hesitated. Having his identity exposed by the middle-aged man, he felt a little awkward.
"My name is Mu Kangle." The middle-aged man stretched out his hand.
"My name is Kong Di."
They shook hands.
"Someone, clean up the gambling table. The snake and scorpion beauties in our gambling house will have a few moves to play with the brothers from Kong Family!" Mu Kangle shouted.
The customers at the gambling table were originally very dissatisfied, but after hearing that it was the Kong Family little brother, they immediately agreed to Mu Kangle's request.
"So it's the little brother Kong Family."
"Kong Family, one of the three great Alchemy Families, why did you come here? Could it be related to the Lin Prefecture Auction House?"
"The Snake Scorpion Beauty is not a Half Immortal, but to become the trump card of the gambling house, it relies on an unimaginable guess. In the past, there was a Half Immortal who secretly made a bet. After being discovered by the Snake Scorpion Beauty, the two met at the gambling table and the Snake Scorpion Beauty easily won. "
"Kong Family, little brother is really lucky to be able to fight against the snake and scorpion beauties."
Very quickly, the gambling table was cleaned up.
"This …" Kong Di was very embarrassed. Although he boasted that he was gambling saint at Kong Family, Kong Di did not dare to take part in such an occasion. Luckily, the owner of the gambling house, Mu Kangle, invited Kong Di to make a bet.
More and more people gathered to watch.
"Kong Family's little brother is just playing around." Mu Kangle laughed, "The old rule is to shake the dice and count to six. It doesn't matter if you guess correctly or not, a total of five times. Whoever loses will pay a silver tael."
Only one tael of silver?
The surrounding customers all shook their heads. Indeed, it was for entertainment purposes.
At this moment, Lin San slipped to Zhang Haorann's side. The surrounding chatter told Lin San what had happened.
"What?" Boss Mu is inviting this little brother Kong Family to make a bet? " Lin San had a weird expression on his face.
"What's wrong?" Zhang Haorann asked.
"It's like this." Lin San said softly, "This Boss Mu is a famous miser. He is extremely stingy, and the key is that he is extremely rich. I have never seen Boss Mu take the initiative to gamble because of who has come from Powerful Family and Honourable Clan."
"Are you saying that Boss Mu has another motive?" Zhang Haorann's eyes flashed and the smile on his face became even wider.
Lin San nodded. It should be.
At this moment, the gambling table was already set up. Kong Di and the scorpion faced each other as they sat down.
The snake and scorpion beauties wore red veils. No one knew her face, but they were clear that her guessing skills were unmatched.
A bronze cup and a dice.
"You first." The snake and scorpion beauty's voice was clear.
Kong Di was very nervous. Taking a deep breath, he put the dice into the bronze cup and shook it a few times to cover it up.
"Boss Mu, I am only at Third Grade Half-immortal while the snake and scorpion beauty are just ordinary people. Isn't it too much of an advantage for me to do this?" Kong Di asked.
Mu Kangle smiled and said, "It's fine, it's only a tael of silver after losing. As long as the little brother Kong Family is happy, it's fine."
Kong Di asked, "Alright, let's guess a bit."
"One." The snake and scorpion beauty said.
Kong Di originally wanted to guess a few points, but he thought that if it was just playing, then he will seriously play. Kong Di immediately felt the points when the Dao Body Vital Energy looked towards the table and saw the dice covered by the copper cup.
"I guess five." Kong Di said as he opened the bronze cup.
Dots appeared.
Not five, but one.
Kong Di was stunned. How is that possible? He clearly sensed that it was five o'clock, but he still said that the snake and scorpion beauties deliberately did that? That's not right, that woman was just an ordinary person, she wasn't a Half Immortal, nor was she a True Immortal.
Behind him, there were a few Kong Family youths who were also embarrassed. They all turned their heads away, as if saying that they didn't know Kong Di, Kong Di seemed to have nothing to do with me.
"Little brother, that woman is so amazing!" I've seen her perform before, and no one is her match. " Lin San was envious. He didn't have the money, so he could only watch.
"Hehe, normally, if it was me, the snake and scorpion women would have no chance of winning." Zhang Haorann said lightly.
Lin San twitched his mouth, little bro, you might not win even if you get on.
As the sound reached Kong Di's ears, he turned and saw Zhang Haorann. "Friend, how about playing with me?"
Kong Di just relaxed the atmosphere and shared the pressure, so he casually mentioned it.
However, Zhang Haorann nodded and really agreed to Kong Di's invitation.
"Let's just play." Zhang Haorann said casually.
Kong Di looked at Mu Kangle, indicating that this is okay?
Mu Kangle agreed.
"Friend, come and guess later." Kong Di laughed. I believe in my eyes.
The snake and scorpion beauty shook the bronze cup and covered it.
"Guess." The snake and scorpion beauty said.
"Six." Zhang Haorann said casually.
The snake-scorpion beauty gave a faint smile and covered with a black veil. No one knew whether the snake-scorpion beauty's smile was mocking or disdainful.
"I guess four." The Snake Scorpion opened her bronze cup. Indeed, it was four o'clock.
The crowd went into an uproar.
Kong Di whispered, "Friend, don't be like this. It's better to be serious."
"It doesn't matter." Zhang Haorann said, "I will bear the consequences if I lose."
"That's what you said." Kong Di was like a lifesaver, he turned around and said to the few Kong Family youths, "You all saw it, I really want to perform."
Again.
Zhang Haorann shook the bronze cup and covered it, "Let me guess a little."
When it came to the Snake Scorpion Beauty's turn, she guessed five o'clock.
The bronze cup opened. Sure enough, it was five o'clock.
Zhang Haorann handed the bronze cup to the snake and scorpion beauty.
The next round was once again the Snake Scorpion had guessed correctly.
In this way, the snake and scorpion beauties won four times in a row.
One last time.
"Little brother Kong Family, if you lose five times, it'll only be five silver coins." Mu Kangle smiled.
Kong Di nodded in embarrassment. It wasn't worth five taels of silver, he could afford it.
"I forgot to mention it." Mu Kangle added, "These five taels of silver, if you don't take out the shadow and the notes, it must be traded for the rune stones."
Symbol Stone?
Kong Di was startled and thought that it was bad. If he really lost, he would use a rune stone to write down five taels of silver, and Mu Kangle would take the paper and ask Kong Family for money.
Mu Kangle was too smart. Using this move, he could give Shiyong Town and gambling house a good reputation. In the future, there would only be more and more guests visiting.
After being used, Kong Di was displeased, Mu Kangle had done it on purpose. Five taels of silver should be given by Kong Di right now, but he had put forward the request of exchanging the rune stones, could it be that Mu Kangle wanted to pay the Kong Family personally for five taels of silver?
If word of this got out, what would the Kong Family think?
"Don't be impatient." Zhang Haorann said.
Kong Di had no choice but to endure, "If you help me, I owe you a favor."
"I'll try my best to help you recover your losses."
The final round began.
Zhang Haorann shook the bronze cup, covered it, and before he opened it, Zhang Haorann said:
"Boss Mu, I'm asking you."
"What if I win this last game?"
Mu Kangle laughed, "Worse comes to worse, I will lose one tael of silver."
"Boss Mu, that's not how it should be calculated." Zhang Haorann said, "Kong Di only lost once, which was only one tael of silver. I lost three times. "Kong Di is Kong Di, I am me. This wager is different."
Mu Kangle was confused. This person was so interesting. He jumped into the fire pit. Was he crazy?
"What kind of bet do you want?" Mu Kangle asked.
"If you lose this last round, kneel down and kowtow to a few Kong Family brothers. Kong Family is one of the three great alchemy families, it wouldn't be a loss for you to kowtow and apologize to them." Zhang Haorann said lightly.
Mu Kangle frowned.
There were people clamoring all around. Who was this person that dared to make such a request?
"How dare you!"
Mu Kangle said in a deep voice, "Last match, what if you lose?"
"It's up to you." Zhang Haorann took out a square box. This was the one Qin Lu had given him before. The first and second floor respectively contained Shadow Recording Stone and Lin Prefecture, but the third floor was locked and Zhang Haorann had not opened it up till now.
The box was shining brightly. With a single glance, he could tell that it was not something ordinary. Even Kong Di looked over curiously.
It was unknown who shouted, "This is a treasure of the Qin Family!"
The surrounding people took a deep breath. Good heavens, this person could take out a treasure from the Qin Family, could it be someone from the Qin Family?
