"Sister Yan, can you take me with you? I promise I won't cause you any trouble. Don't leave me here, I'm afraid."
Because of what they heard yesterday, Tong Yan and Ji Xing planned to visit Jinhui Casino. Before leaving, He Zhan took her hand and asked to take him with her.
"We will be back soon. How about you rest in the inn and wait for us?" She tried her best to coax. The gambling house was not a good place, not to mention that the Jinhui Gambling House was not an ordinary gambling house.
Moreover, there will be no peace in the casino tonight. It would be too troublesome and unsafe to bring a child.
"Do you still have the beads I gave you last time?" After seeing him nod, Tong Yan continued: "It will protect you. The place we are going to is very dangerous and we cannot take you there."
He Zhan's eyes turned red, he lowered his head and sobbed: "Sister Yan... I'm afraid you'll leave me alone."
Did she show any signs that she would abandon him?
This child is so insecure.
"What are you thinking about? I promise you that I won't do this. Stop crying." Tong Yan said sincerely that it is difficult to raise a child, and it is even harder to raise a child who cries.
The child raised his head and saw that her brows were slightly furrowed. She stopped her tears wisely, and with her wet eyes, she said in a very obedient and sensible manner: "Well, I won't cry anymore. Sister Yan, I will wait for you to come back. My mother said
Adults will like children only if they are obedient. I will be very obedient and listen to you."
She was so well-behaved that it was heartbreaking. She touched the child's head and comforted her silently, and finally said, "Let's go."
"Well, goodbye sister Yan, goodbye big brother." He Zhan nodded vigorously, with tears in his eyes, and said goodbye to them with a brave smile.
"Let's go." Seeing that it was almost time, Ji Xing said from the side.
The two walked out of the room and closed the door. He Zhan followed behind and put his hand against the door to stop her.
"Sister Yan, I'll close the door. You go quickly."
Tong Yan was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, "In that moment, remember to close the door and don't open it to strangers."
After He Zhan expressed that he remembered it, she followed Ji Xing downstairs and left the inn.
The room where He Zhan was located had a window facing the street. When passing by, Tong Yan glanced back subconsciously.
The small body was halfway out of the window, eyes fixed on their backs.
How long had he been watching there?
Or, it's been like this since they left home.
To put it mildly, He Zhan looked at the figure here stubbornly, and she felt a little uncomfortable when she looked at it.
Isn't it unsafe to leave him alone in the inn? He is not yet ten years old, and he will not be able to handle any emergencies.
Ji Xing noticed that the person next to him had stopped, and then he also stopped and turned to look at the window.
Compared to Tong Yan's slightly rich emotions, his eyes were filled with endless peace.
He didn't speak either, he just waited until she took another step and followed her up.
The two figures finally disappeared around the corner of the street. He Zhan slowly climbed off the stool and closed the window step by step.
He walked to the table, picked up the cold tea and took a sip.
I thought this move was going to fail, but luckily she turned around in the end.
Judging from his sister's somewhat sluggish reaction, he had to speak up before doing these things so that his efforts would not be in vain.
Mother said, a dependent person should show enough dependence on the strong person.
You have to learn to let them pity you and let them be soft-hearted towards you.
…
The lanterns of Jinhui Casino were lit when the last ray of light in Yuan County disappeared.
Because the news of Qin Shu's declaration of war spread throughout the county and surrounding areas, the number of people coming to the gambling house tonight was several times more than usual.
What is Jinhui Casino?
During the day, it is a larger and more luxurious casino.
At night, it is the only underground fighting venue in Yuan County.
There will be three different games on the field: monsters versus monsters, humans versus monsters, and humans versus humans. Onlookers can bet with money or spiritual stones.
There is no such thing as admitting defeat for those who take the field. They must either stand or lie down, die or be crippled, and determine the winner. Otherwise, they cannot leave the field.
In addition to raising a group of thugs, gambling houses also accept others to sell themselves, or participate in the competition themselves. If you win a certain number of times in a row, you can get the bonus.
Those who failed to pay back after losing their bets would be forced to sign a deed of betrayal by the gambling houses and go to work to earn money for them to pay off their debts.
Here, some people become rich overnight, while others lose everything.
Every night in the gambling house, the crazy shouts of gamblers resound.
The only people who can enter the gambling house tonight are the monks who can get spiritual stones and the ordinary people who spend money. The street in front of the gambling house is their place.
After passing through the surrounding area with three floors inside and three floors outside, the two finally entered the gambling house.
There were monks all around, and Tong Yan didn't use his consciousness randomly. He only used his sight to observe the layout inside.
There are one or two pairs of bodyguards standing at each door. I don't know if they are always there or if they are deliberately prepared to meet the enemy.
Finally, they came to a high platform on the second floor. The view here was excellent. If you moved your eyes, you could see the fighting arena.
Perhaps it was because Ji Xing's appearance and aura showed that he was not an ordinary person at a glance. None of the other monks dared to come within three steps of them, so the place seemed a bit empty.
The strangeness here naturally attracted the attention of the steward of Jinhui Casino.
On the way here with the people, I was still wondering if someone wanted to cause trouble, or if Qin Shu had arrived early?
Only when I saw Ji Xing did I realize that this small temple had attracted a powerful person for some unknown reason.
The steward waved away his entourage and was about to step forward with great respect.
Ji Xing glanced over with an indifferent look, and the invisible pressure forced the steward to take a step back.
With just one look from him, he had such power. The person in charge still dared to go up to him. He was sweating profusely, bowed respectfully in this direction with fear, and left in despair.
A person like this should send someone to inform his master as soon as possible. He doesn't have the guts to talk to anyone.
Also, how is the ancestor going into seclusion? The gambling house will not be peaceful tonight!
Tong Yan, who was focused on the field, suddenly noticed that the surroundings were a little quiet.
She asked a little strangely: "What's wrong?"
Ji Xing casually glanced at the people around him who were affected by the residual power from the corner of his eyes, and said lightly, "Nothing happened."
Then the volume button seemed to be turned on, and the noisy sound suddenly sounded again.
Tong Yan: Oh.
But why are they all peeking here?
Not long after, the first battle began on the fighting field below.
They are two second-level monsters, their appearance is somewhat similar to giant wolves and leopards. Their limbs are strong and strong, and they have full attack power.
Coupled with their equal strength, the fight between the two ferocious beasts made the people in the venue excited.
At first, Tong Yan was still interested in watching it. After all, it was her first time here and she had never dealt with this kind of monster. When watching, she would imagine how she would take action and defend herself if it were herself.
The game ended quickly, with the fire attribute wolf slightly better.
This is just an appetizer, what follows is another fight between two qi-training monks.
She casually glanced at the cultivation levels of the two of them. One was at the fifth level of Qi training, the other was at the sixth level of Qi training. The one with a higher level of cultivation was from the gambling house.
The monks who were on the fifth level of Qi training were looking for the 500 spiritual stones they had received after three rounds of challenges.
However, he must win three games in a row before he can take them away.
The fight between monks requires more skills and experience, and is much more exciting than the fight between monsters and beasts. Even she watched it with relish.
Both of them were very brutal in their attacks, and they were bloody. The onlookers around them became even more excited.
Facts have proved that no one without two brushes would have the guts to make money from gambling houses.
It didn't take long for the people in the gambling house to be beaten so hard that they couldn't get up and were vomiting blood.
The people on the ground were carried off by the thugs, and no one gave them any extra look.
The referee standing on the side looked at the winner on the field with a meaningful look, and then glanced at the injured person who was being carried away with disgust.
Amid the cheers of everyone on the field, the second contestant was ushered in. Tong Yan didn't pay much attention, he just wanted to do a quick trick to isolate the roaring sounds around him.
It happened that Ji Xing looked towards her at this time, and she explained: "It's too noisy here, let me block the sound."
"Is it noisy? Why doesn't this poor monk feel it?" Ji Xing said.
In an instant, Tong Yan thought of many things, such as:
As expected, he is a monk with high cultivation and good concentration. This kind of thinking and understanding is beyond the reach of ordinary people.
It is estimated that if the band's loud speakers were played in his ears, he would be as steady as a needle on the mountain road.
Could it be that in the legend, it is not the wind or the clouds that are moving, but the heart is moving?
Ji Xing saw her moving her lips but could not read what she meant, so he asked: "What did you just say? Speak slower. The poor monk has only learned lip reading for a short time. If others speak fast, they can't keep up."
Already."
I felt deeply that Buddhism was profound and profound, and I was immersed in the enlightenment. The child's words without saying a word were: "..."
After belatedly reading the meaning behind her expressionless face, Ji Xing couldn't help but laugh, "When there are more people coming to the casino, it will naturally be noisy. The poor monk has been to a similar place before, so he applied the diaphragm in advance.
Spell."
Tong Yan put the diaphragm mask on himself and immediately turned on the autism mode.
After the noise was isolated, the battered eardrums finally felt better.
The people on the stage were constantly changing, violent and boring, and she only watched for a while before she became distracted.
I don't know how much time passed, but there was a sudden fluctuation of spiritual power next to her. When she came back to her senses, it turned out that it was Ji Xing's spiritual power shield that trapped her inside.
She calmed down her diaphragm, and heard the slight noise in the gambling house.
He lowered his head slightly and asked, "Isn't it boring?" Then he added, "It will be over soon, and the person who should come has already arrived."
Tong Yan was shocked, Qin Shu is here?
She looked around four times and asked, "Where is he?"
Ji Xing: "Outside the gambling house."
"Outside?"
Ji Xing nodded, then raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "Here he comes."
The next moment, a black shadow slowly fell from the top of the gambling house, and then a wave of air swayed from his body, and the two people on the field were directly ejected.
"Qin Shu, please come out of the Jin family."
As expected, the person who came was carrying two magic swords, one large and one small. He was extremely handsome wearing only a green robe.
A pair of sharp eyes resembled a ferocious beast that had just broken out of the cage. Coupled with the scar as long as a little finger on his forehead, his gentle face was a little colder for no reason.
What he actually meant was: People of the Jin family, please come out and die.
