Chapter 423 Especially the last sentence

 Hong Kong in the 1950s and 1960s was not like Hong Kong in the late 1980s and early 1990s. Everyone was busy surviving and paid little attention to existences other than their own energy.

Life is easy, but living is very difficult.

Zhou Xiaoxing still remembers a sentence from a movie he watched in his last life: Either get busy living or get busy dying.

Ghost King Da and Jiu Ge are in such a state.

The difference is that they are not the two groups at the extremes, they are right in the middle.

In other words, between life and death, they can think of other things to make their lives less boring.

Of course, how to enjoy life depends on whether the human, material and financial resources are in place.

When they heard that a small mirror could ward off demons, their eyes widened.

Especially the last sentence...

Understand the past and present and predict the future.

The two of them nodded repeatedly, which is funny.

Especially Brother Jiu, who clearly doesn’t have the long beard like the wise old man, insists on half-cupping his hand and stroking it up and down under his chin.

Ah this...

Zhou Xiaoxing tactically stepped back a little, gently moved the Universe Mirror back, put his elbows on the gambling table, raised his eyebrows slightly, and moved his mouth in the direction of Ghost King Da.

The meaning is obvious. His chips have been approved by Brother Nine, and he can deal the last card.

Finish work early and go back to Uncle San's house early to sleep.

Ghost King Da didn't react for a while, he was still immersed in the fantasy of predicting the future.

Don't blame him, he is so attractive that not only him, but even Ninth Brother is a little dumbfounded.

If they can know what their future will look like, then they can save decades of struggle, and at least twenty years without worry.

This picture was emerging in Brother Jiu's mind: when he won the bet, he would immediately bring the Baa Qiankun Mirror over and ask him what it was like to be in twenty years.

He should have achieved financial freedom long ago, immigrated to Canada, and had his own villa with a dozen beautiful women waiting for him, and he himself...

Before he unfolded it carefully, he suddenly discovered that he had an extra card in his hand.

Ghost King Da has already begun to deal the last card.

Great!

In a few minutes, he will know exactly what his life will be like twenty years from now.

Although he needs to gamble all his luck to...

Ugh...

Before the final result comes out, he should not emulate others' ambitions and destroy his own prestige. Maybe he is lucky enough and wins the game so surely...

What if...

Zhou Xiaoxing took the last card and smiled, a proud smile, so loud that the two people in the room, no, plus the third uncle who was hiding in the dark, there were three people in total, and they were all stunned.

Ghost King Da was worried that the cards he sent were not very good and Zhou Xiaoxing would be unable to control himself, so...

After all, tall and thin people can express their emotions and anger without expressing their emotions.

As soon as Brother Jiu's hand touched the center of the card, before he picked it up, he heard Gao Jinlei's maniacal laughter, his eyebrows furrowed, and he was puzzled.

What kind of play is this?

There was no expression at all before. When it was the last card’s turn, it was...

Let your emotions get out of control...

Did you get a good card?

Or...

Hei Zai reached the fifth pack of instant noodles before biting open the bag. He was about to crush it bit by bit and eat it dry. Suddenly, a laugh sounded in his ears as if something big was about to happen. He immediately stopped what he was doing and stretched his neck.

....

Keep your eyes open...

Can't see.

It has nothing to do with him. There are only three of them in the casino, Gao Jin. Except for the lights at the big gaming table, the rest is pitch black. You can only see your fingers when you reach out.

Counting the time, everything is almost over.

Heizida shrugged his shoulders boredly, lowered his head slowly, and continued eating instant noodles.

It’s all thanks to Brother Jiu, the stingy boss, that there’s no boiling water in the casino, and there’s instant noodles, so you can only eat them dry.

To be honest, when I took the first bite, it was really throat-breaking. As the second and third bites slowly digested, Hei Zaida felt inexplicably that instant noodles do not necessarily have to be soaked.

Of course, this change is not sudden, there is a reason.

Although he couldn't see the details of the gambling table, he vaguely felt that victory lay with Gao Jin.

Speaking of Gao Jin, he really has a natural sense of closeness. To what extent, let's put it this way, in the past, he would always find various reasons to return home early after rolling the dice. There was nothing left for him to do.
p>

A place like a casino is not a place suitable for staying too long. What's more, he has a younger brother at home, so he should go back home as early as possible.

But tonight, he doesn't think much about it.

He was very interested in this Gao Jin who was better at listening to dice than he was at rolling dice.

So much so that now he would rather wait for Gao Jin while eating snacks and beer that may harm his body.

If you can invite him to the house, then...

Without much thought, Hei Zaida sat up straight like Touxian, with instant noodles in one hand and beer in the other, looking at the big gambling table.

The bet is not over yet, and everything he thinks is just fantasy.

If you have this time, you might as well eat more instant noodles, drink more beer, and pray more for Gao Jin, even though he may not need it at all.

On the gambling table, Zhou Xiaoxing raised his right hand high and gradually made a fist. As all the fingers reached the palm of his hand, his smile stopped suddenly, as if it had never appeared before.

He didn't laugh for no reason, he smiled after seeing the cards sent to him by Ghost King Da, but he was just a little more unrestrained than before.

His character is actually so lively and lifeless, which is not suitable for him.

Once you get along with him for a long time, you will naturally know.

It's just that the two people in front of him were not lucky enough to have time to get to know him properly.

This may be a good thing.

You don’t have to know each other if you have met once.

When Brother Jiu and Ghost King Da returned to normal little by little, Zhou Xiaoxing immediately turned over all the cards in his hand.

Five cards.

All spades.

10,J,Q,K,A.

At the moment when the last card, the Ace of Spades, was revealed, Zhou Xiaoxing saw two completely different eyes without any surprise.

Ghost King Da was half surprised and half delighted, so he didn’t say much. He was a card dealer anyway, and his expression at this moment was not for reference.

The point is Brother Nine.

He was completely dumbfounded.

It’s really a straight, a straight flush.

Uh...

There is no need to open his cards.

Lost.

He had thought he might win...

I couldn't believe that I would lose so quickly.

He actually thought about how he would lose, but Gao Jin didn't say anything cruel at all, he just laughed a few times and then immediately opened the cards, which really scared him.

Don't even give him a chance to regret.

Thirty million, that’s it...

I knew that the Heaven and Earth Mirror was just a cover...

That’s not right. Without the Mirror of Heaven and Earth, he would lose...

Brother Jiu was in a mess, and strange thoughts came to him...

At that moment, he seemed to see many scenes that he could never see or even think about...

Without exception, they are all negative...

Could it be...

This is...

Legend has it that a person loses so much that he doesn’t even have his underpants left...
