Wang Xu didn't understand what "Water of Fangcheng" was referring to, but Huo Feng only told him these four words, so he simply ran to the Internet cafe to check the information. It was 9:30 in the evening.
, the time has passed halfway.
As early as half an hour ago, someone had already found the location of the casino.
The first person to arrive was Zhuge Wei, the veritable number one seed. Although he did not seek information from Uncle Wu, he passed the test in a very short period of time and immediately understood the meaning of Fangcheng Water.
It took less than an hour to find the casino. It seemed that he was a capable person regardless of his connections.
The second person to arrive was an unpopular one. This man named Jiang Ru was ranked outside the top 100 on the odds list, but he was able to arrive second. I don't know if his strength was underestimated or if he had some other clever tricks.
Only these two arrived within an hour and a half, and the game continued...
At the same time, somewhere in S city.
A man with a mustache woke up from a coma. As soon as he woke up, he immediately arched his head and looked around, as if he was afraid of any danger. The surroundings were dark, and an old voice came from not far away: "
Don’t worry, you are not in danger now.”
The man with the mustache seemed very shocked when he heard this voice. He exclaimed in surprise: "Are you...the Emperor of Song Dynasty?!"
Emperor Song: "It was only by chance that I met you and was able to save you. Fu Tian, you were too careless. The majestic Tenth King of Hell almost lost his life."
This man with a mustache is King Futian of Qin Guang, also known as Zhuge Shen.
"I... I'm sorry, I didn't expect to encounter such an opponent in the human world... Oh! We have to notify other ghost hunters quickly, otherwise many people may die." Zhuge Shen wanted to get up as he spoke, but found that
My whole body can't use any strength.
Emperor Song: "No, the dream demon thought you were dead. Now he has turned into your appearance and went to the evaluation venue for newcomers. I think he must have some other purpose for doing this. You took this opportunity to recuperate and act in secret.
That’s the best policy.”
The emperor of the Song Dynasty, whose surname was Yu An, was known as "No Killing in the World", which means "a soldier who subdues others without fighting". He was the most senior among the ten kings of hell and had excellent strategies. His suggestions were often the most correct.
Zhuge Shen was still a little worried; "But...if he..."
Yu An seemed to know what Zhuge Shen was going to say and interrupted him directly: "If he wants to kill someone, just attack him directly. There is no need to pretend to be you and sneak in. He deliberately attacked you first. The conspiracy behind it is not simple.
You can rest in peace and recuperate. Even if the dream demon can hide it from everyone, it will never be able to hide it from Yun Gu and Wu Guangzong. Moreover, there is still that kid in S City...
The disguise of the incubus was in vain from the beginning, I think they must also be waiting for the incubus to reveal his true purpose so that they can give him a fatal blow."
After hearing this, Zhuge Shen was temporarily relieved: "That's good... By the way, I haven't thanked the Emperor of Song Dynasty for saving his life."
"Well, you don't have to be polite. Just don't mention the fact that you met me to anyone. If anyone asks in the future, just say that you escaped from death after being injured and recovered on your own."
"Sir Emperor Song, why is this? After you disappeared, everyone was very worried. King Chu Jiang is now temporarily assuming the position of Emperor Song. Many families have put pressure on our Tenth Palace King of Hell to choose a new Emperor Song.
If this goes on for a long time..."
"You don't have to say it, it's just a false name. I don't care about this at all. My recent disappearance is because I am dealing with a big matter. I can only solve this matter by myself. When the time is right, I will explain it to you."
After Yu An said this, he disappeared from the darkness, leaving no trace of his spiritual consciousness...
Wang Xu searched the Internet for a long time and finally understood the meaning of "Fangcheng Water". The answer he initially came up with in his mind was "Taiwan Mahjong", which was obviously unreliable.
Later, when he checked, he found out that this was actually a very useless puzzle. Fangcheng was Xiangyang in ancient times, and there was a Xiangyang Road in S City, and the word "water" was even simpler, bathing center...
Wang Xu already knew the place, because the underground casino where he used to work often had to change locations, and this was just one of the backup locations.
He hailed a taxi on the street, got in the back seat, and set off towards his destination. He looked at the time and saw that there was still an hour left. Even if there was a traffic jam, it would take less than half an hour to get there. It seemed that the first step was
It’s over.
So Wang Xu simply slumped in the back seat in a daze, already looking like he had entered the casino by himself and killed everyone. Unexpectedly, he suddenly realized something was wrong after driving for only five minutes. The scenery outside the window looked very desolate, and
The car was still very bumpy, as if it was driving into the wilderness.
Wang Xu sat up and took a look. It was really weird. The taxi was driving on a country road. There were several dim street lights working on the roadside. There were large cemeteries on both sides of the road.
The corner of Wang Xu's mouth twitched, he looked at the back of the man's head in the driver's seat, and said: "Could you be..."
The driver turned around, and it turned out to be the face of a corpse. The nose had been dented, and his face was covered with broken glass and a lot of blood and flesh. He seemed to have difficulty speaking, and there was a strange sound in his throat: "
Come on the road with me..."
Before he could finish his sentence, Wang Xu rushed forward, and the safety glass protecting the driver was torn into pieces by the furious Wang Xu.
The car stopped, Wang Xu pinched the ghost driver's neck, leaned in front of him, and said word by word: "Do you know what you are? You are just like a rabbit that comes out to show off during the hunting season. It's really not good.
Open your eyes, you..."
Wang Xu put more force on his hand, and the ghost was about to fly up after being pinched by him. Only ghosts have always scared people, and today this ghost was frightened by Wang Xu.
"You are quite awesome. It only takes five minutes to run from the city center to the suburbs. If the eight major F1 teams withdraw next year, then it seems that you will be the only one to join, right?"
The ghost driver saw that this person could not only touch his real body, but was also very angry, so he knew that he could not get any favors, so he had to beg for mercy: "Great... Great Immortal, please spare my life... I died miserably, so... I can't be reincarnated...
…”
Wang Xu let go of his hand and stared into the ghost driver's eyes: "If you can't get where I want to go before eleven o'clock, I don't know what I will do... Do you understand?"
"I understand... I understand..." The ghost driver was so frightened by Wang Xu that he trembled even as he spoke. He started the car again and drove out of the ghost realm.
In the end, Wang Xu arrived at the casino, but he stepped in and was eliminated one minute later.
There were 164 people present in the first round, and Wang Xu was the last one. When he got off the car, he said to the ghost driver, "Be careful next time you drive!" But the driver actually listened directly.
After becoming a Buddha, I don’t know if he was frightened by Wang Xu and didn’t dare to stay in this world anymore.
When the eleven o'clock bell rang, the first round of the preliminaries was officially over.
Half an hour later, Uncle Wu, the three Tenth Palace Hell Kings, and other ghost hunters who were paying attention to the results of the game also came here. Wang Xu found Qi Bing. According to Qi Bing, Cat Master seemed to go home and sleep after eating.
When Dajue passed away, Wang Xu really didn't know what to say.
Uncle Wu explained the rules of the second round. Between twelve o'clock and three o'clock, if you increase the chips on hand to one hundred thousand, you can use psychic powers, but you cannot let the staff in the casino discover the existence of psychic powers, nor can you use them.
If you are caught cheating, you will be disqualified if you violate the rules.
Wang Xu felt very relieved. He was definitely a master at gambling. This round could be said to be without difficulty.
Many staff in the casino recognized Wang Xu, but they didn't point it out. Everyone in this business knows that it is not easy to secure the power here tonight. If you ask less questions, you can live longer.
Wang Xu walked to the window where he got the chips and reported his name. When a 100 chip was handed to him from the other side, he was stunned on the spot.
"Just a hundred?"
"Yes, just one hundred." The staff at the window also looked helpless.
"Uncle Wu!" Wang Xu rushed to Uncle Wu, "Hey, this is too bullying. I think some of them got more than ten thousand, why am I only one hundred?"
Uncle Wu sighed: "Actually, it's fair. From eight o'clock to eleven o'clock, there are a total of one hundred and eighty minutes. One minute is one hundred, and the chips are the remaining time after you arrive."
Wang Xu listened without saying a word. At this moment, he had nothing to say. He stared at the 100 yuan chip in his hand, with an expression on his face as if he was hungry. This thing will multiply a thousand times in three hours...
He suppressed the depression in his heart and rushed into the casino like flying.
