I sighed slightly and walked towards the antique building on the mountainside.
After reconstruction, the wooden building became even more majestic.
There is a small bamboo forest in front of the door, surrounded by green bricks and gray walls.
Walking into the courtyard, there were many familiar faces standing there in groups, chatting casually.
Like the Weihe Two Ghosts and Qiu Wanying.
What surprised me most was that Li Jianlu was also there.
Last time at Coconut Island, Li Jianlu gave me my finger, but I didn't take it.
After he left, I thought he would withdraw from the world.
Unexpectedly, he would appear here again.
It's just that I haven't seen him for a long time, and this former gambling king of Qilu seems to be not doing well.
Although the clothes on my body are brand-name clothes, they seem to have not been washed in a long time.
The expensive watch I once wore on my hand has now disappeared.
The moment he saw me, Li Jianlu immediately walked over quickly.
"On the sixth day of the lunar month, are you here?"
There was an awkward smile on his fat face.
I nodded and asked him:
"Participate in the Star Reaching List?"
Li Jianlu shook his head.
"Hey, after losing to you last time, I no longer have any interest in this star ranking list..."
"Then what are you doing?"
I asked in confusion.
Li Jianlu looked around and saw that no one was paying attention to him, so he lowered his voice and said:
"Last time you took my cargo away, wasn't it robbed by Mr. Liu? I'm too tight now. My son needs money, and the old lady needs money for hospitalization. I just want to talk to Mr. Liu about that.
Give me some payment for the goods first. He won't answer the phone calls, so I have no choice but to come to the star list..."
Li Jianlu's embarrassed look was completely different from the gambling king image he had when he scolded Fang Qiu.
"Don't you still run a casino?"
I'm a little confused, Li Jianlu just can't do it.
But if a camel is so thin that it is bigger than a horse, he will not end up in this situation.
Li Jianlu smiled bitterly, shook his head and said:
"Hey, it's hard to explain. That day when I returned to Qilu from Yedao, the casino was taken over by Mr. Liu's people. I have been running it for so many years, how can I swallow this breath? So I called Mr. Liu, but he
I won’t answer. In anger, I found some brothers who were good friends with me in the past and wanted to take the place back. Guess what happened?"
I shook my head.
"Before I could even wait for the scene, I was arrested by Baidao people. Do you plead guilty or not to the crime of running a casino? There is no way, of course I confess. My family also relied on connections and found many people to steal the family's real estate and valuables.
All the things were sold before I was fished out. Now I really can’t survive..."
Li Jianlu looked bitter and continued:
"Originally, I thought, after all, I am also a Senju, so Qianju is reasonable. I wanted to find two games, but before I could play, people recognized my identity and beat me several times, and I was completely broken.
Thousands of thoughts. Alas, a fallen phoenix is not as good as a chicken!"
I looked at Li Jianlu, but I didn't feel the slightest sympathy.
Collect the game to start gambling, and let the money go.
After doing all the evil things like us, it would be nice to have a good ending.
Just as he was talking, he heard someone shouting from inside:
"Everyone outside, please come in. The gentlemen will be here in ten minutes!"
This time it was obviously more relaxed than before, and the followers I brought could actually follow me in.
People outside immediately filed in. Just as I was about to walk forward, I heard Xiao Duo behind me say:
"Don't come in with me, just wait outside!"
As soon as Xiaoduo opened his mouth, everyone turned around and looked.
When it comes to scenery, Xiaoduo is the most beautiful now.
Behind them were twenty-two big men. Not only were they physically strong, they were even dressed the same.
Each of them had firm eyes and looked like dead warriors.
Upon hearing what Xiaoduo said, these people immediately stood aside.
The leader cupped his hands towards Xiaoduo and said:
"Miss Xiaoduo, if there is anything abnormal inside, tell us as soon as possible. If anyone dares to touch you, we, the people, will cut him into pieces!"
Xiaoduo waved his hand helplessly.
You know, this girl is used to being free.
She was not used to having so many people around her.
Entering the guest hall, it is several times larger than before.
There are mahogany chairs placed around it, and between the two chairs, there is a special small tea table. These are all prepared for the participants.
In the middle position, there is a row of purple Eight Immortals chairs.
Refreshments and fruits are also prepared on the tea table between the chairs. These are prepared for the sponsors.
I randomly found a seat and sat down. Lao Hei and others were not players, so they could only stand behind me and Mr. Hong.
I looked around and saw some familiar Senjus around me.
What caught my attention the most was Jin Wushuang in the corner.
He closed his eyes and gently shook the folding fan in his hand.
That way, it seems that I already have a plan in mind.
After looking for a long time, I didn't see the silver-clothed girl from Gu Sect.
On the other hand, Gu Ziliu was sitting not far from me.
His eyes looked towards the back door. I guessed that referee Zhang Fan would come out from here after a while.
After a while, I saw a person in charge walking in from the back door.
As soon as he entered the door, he raised his hand to everyone and said at the same time:
"Everyone, please stand up. Mr. Liu and all of you are here. Everyone welcomes you with applause..."
Everyone stood up one after another, but Gu Ziliu did not move, just sitting in his place coldly.
I looked specifically at Jin Wushuang, but he was still swaying his bamboo fan slightly and didn't move.
After a while, I saw Sanmei from Central Yunnan and Luobei walking in first.
Following them were Zhaixing Zhang and Zhang Fan.
Liu Yunxiu came in last, which surprised me.
Liu Yunxiu also supported a person and stood beside him cautiously.
The moment they saw the man, Gu Ziliu and Jin Wushuang, who had been sitting just now, immediately stood up.
