The streets of Wuyang City have gradually stopped being noisy. Except for the occasional patrolling soldiers and hurried passers-by, the only remaining bustling area in Wuyang City is Hualiu Lane.
Even though it was already past Haishi, there were still countless drinkers lingering in front of the various bars in Hualiu Lane.
The noise of the drinkers and the coquettishness of the girls will continue until after Yin Shi and then gradually come to an end.
The time has come.
Baihua Building, Tianzihao private room.
The red candles are swaying and the red gauze is swaying gently, creating a charming scene.
In this room with spring scenery everywhere, if there is a beautiful girl upstairs, rubbing their hair together and chatting about love and beauty, it is really the most beautiful thing a husband could ask for.
But it's a pity that none of the men and women in this room seem to have such thoughts at this moment.
Li Shizi crossed his legs, biting a piece of dogtail grass that he found somewhere in his mouth, holding a dice Gu in one hand, and holding a wine glass in the other. His expression was leisurely, his squinted eyes were full of smiles, and his body
The front is filled with all kinds of silver coins, ingots, and a mountain of bracelets, pendants, earrings and hairpins. Judging from their condition, they are all valuable items.
Opposite him, the girl Yuyan, who was almost like a fairy in the eyes of others, was no longer quiet and dignified at this moment. She rolled up her sleeves, revealing the back of her hands as white as jade, with one foot on the wooden bench.
She looked at the dice Gu in Li Danqing's hand with red eyes, and pressed one hand on her own dice Gu. Her breathing was a little disordered, and the hair she had spent a lot of time taking care of on her forehead was a little scattered, with a few strands of black hair.
It hung on her forehead, rising and falling gently due to her heavy breathing...
"How much is the girl going to do this time?" Li Danqing glanced at the wooden box that was opened behind the girl. It was full of household belongings. At this moment, only a small half was left. There were only a few hostas and a small stack of silver bills placed in it.
Yu Yan's cheeks were red and her heart was beating very fast. She gritted her teeth and her black pupils shrank violently. It took a while before she made a decision.
Clang.
With a muffled sound, the girl moved the entire wooden box to the wooden table.
"I will fight with you! All in!" Yu Yan said with red eyes.
"Okay!" Prince Li grinned, as if his treacherous plan had succeeded.
He stretched out his hand in a gesture of invitation and said, "Girl, go first."
But Yu Yan had a foresight and said at that time: "Why should you come first?"
"Then it's up to the girl." Li Danqing smiled and opened his dice Gu casually. Yu Yan looked closely and saw five dice placed on it, corresponding to three, three, four, five and five.
, a total of twenty points.
Yu Yan frowned. The bet between the two was extremely simple. It was nothing more than the total number of points to determine the outcome. The five dice totaled thirty points, and the twenty points that Li Danqing drew was not a small amount. And this
Once, she put down all her wealth. If she lost, there would be no hope of a comeback.
Thinking of this, Yu Yan's hand holding the dice Gu trembled a little.
Li Danqing still looked like he was strategizing. He looked at Yu Yan with a smile and said, "That's the girl."
Yu Yan took a deep breath after hearing this. From Haishi today to now, the two of them have played more than a hundred games. She lost more than she won, and she lost all the last ten games.
"You can't be so unlucky if you carry it again, can you?"
"Yu Yan, you can do it!"
Yu Yan cheered herself up in her heart, holding the dice Gu
At this time, his hand slowly raised the dice Gu.
Her breathing became more and more rapid, her eyes were a little bloodshot, and she looked straight at the scene under the dice Gu that was gradually opened, and whispered to herself in a low voice like a demon.
"big big big!"
The first dice came into view, it was six!
Yu Yan's eyes suddenly lit up, he raised the hand of Dice Gu and exerted a little force. The second Dice Gu also came into view at this time, it was still six!
Yuyan was so powerful that she looked at the third dice again. It was still six!
The smile on her face spreads like a peach blossom in full bloom, so beautiful.
"You're dead!" She said this, and with one breath, she lifted the entire dice Gu and looked at the last two dices hopefully.
At that moment, Yu Yan's body froze in place.
Her eyes widened and the smile on her face suddenly froze - the last two dice were two huge and lonely dots.
Twenty points in total.
Exactly the same points as Li Danqing.
But whoever opens first wins, so the oiran of Baihualou lost all his possessions in this game.
"Process, concession!" Li Danqing smiled brightly, stood up like a money man, grabbed Yu Yan's wooden box, and happily picked up the items inside one by one, and measured them carefully, as if he was weighing them.
the value of.
But the oiran of Baihualou seemed to have had all his strength drained away at this moment. He collapsed on the ground in an instant, staring straight ahead with his eyes blankly.
This was the countless number of times she had lost all her belongings to Li Danqing.
Xun Yuyan!
Are you going to keep being slaughtered by this bastard in front of you like this?
A voice sounded in Yu Yan's mind. The girl with dull eyes seemed to have found the goal of life at that time. She clenched her fists and sat up straight.
No!
no way!
She warned herself like this, stretched out a hand and slapped it heavily on the wooden table.
The wooden table trembled, frightening the prince who was counting today's huge gains. He raised his head and looked at the girl with bright eyes: "What's going on again?"
Xun Yuyan's eyes were determined. At this moment, she picked up the dice Gu and pushed it in front of Li Danqing: "I want to bet again."
Li Danqing was stunned, blinked, and kindly reminded: "But Miss Yuyan, you have lost all your belongings to me. I don't do credit here."
As he said this, he collected the jewelry and silver notes on the table into the wooden box and got up to do his work.
Seeing him like this, Xun Yuyan's heart suddenly tightened. She was afraid that Li Danqing would abscond with the money and the oiran slapped the table again and shouted: "Don't leave!"
Li Danqing was startled by her again. He turned his head and looked helplessly at the angry Xun Yuyan, and said with a wry smile: "What's going on, my aunt!"
"Let's take one last gamble!" Xun Yuyan said confidently.
Li Danqing looked the other person up and down: "You are penniless, what can you bet with me now?"
When Xun Yuyan heard this, her face turned purple with anger. She gritted her teeth, as if she had made an extremely important decision, and said at that time: "Myself! I will bet with you on my own!"
This time, Xun Yuyan's eyes were as bright as a torch, and she exuded an aura of determination. Her fists were clenched, and she believed that failure or failure would lead to success. Today, in this battle, she was confident that she would win!
her mind is
This moment is as firm as iron!
People say one lives towards death, and she, Xun Yuyan, will do the same today.
Such thoughts made the oiran from Baihualou secretly feel that at this moment, he looked like a warrior who had lost thousands of people!
boom!
However, this experience of feeling extremely good about myself did not last long before it was interrupted by a burst of pain on my forehead.
Prince Li knocked her hard on the forehead.
"oops."
Xun Yuyan let out a cry of pain, shrank her neck, covered her forehead, looked at her cheeks, and looked at Li Danqing with an aggrieved look: "I have told you so many times that I am not allowed to hit you on the head. I will destroy your health."
me?"
"You've been kicked in the head by a donkey, why do you need me to beat you up?" Li Danqing didn't care about the unique beauty of this beautiful woman when she was angry, and just said: "How much have you lost?
This time, not to mention this life, the next life, and the next life, I have already lost to my son. It seems that I have reached my seventeenth life, right? Why are you planning to gamble your eighteenth life this time?"
The girl was stunned, and then she remembered that she had bet with Li Danqing before. Every time she lost everything, she would use herself as a bet. Of course, it was obvious to take it. But Xun Yuyan was unwilling to let it go, and always wanted to take the chance.
With one move, the cornstarch turned into a golden shuttle, so he fell deeper and deeper, from himself, to his next life, and then to the next life...
I kept losing like this until I lost to Li Danqing in my seventeenth life...
"Eighteen lifetimes are eighteen lifetimes! Do you want to bet?" Probably because he had too many debts, Xun Yuyan was surprisingly transparent, and directly pushed the dice Gu to Li Danqing again, staring at it with an unkind expression.
Li Danqing.
This tone did not sound like a debtor, but sounded like a creditor forcing people to repay their debts.
These days, no matter where you are.
The one who owes the debt is the boss, and the same principle has existed since ancient times.
Li Danqing shrugged his shoulders, squinting at the girl in front of him who was breathing rapidly, with a red face, but also surprisingly childish. He slowly stretched out his hand and pressed it on the dice Gu: "Bet...
"
When the word came out, Yu Yan's eyes suddenly lit up, but before the joy could spread across her face, Li Danqing's voice sounded again.
"But the bet I want is not your eighteenth life, but this life."
When Yu Yan heard this, the smile on her face suddenly faded, a trace of wavering flashed in her eyes, her red lips parted slightly, and she was almost about to agree, but at the critical moment, the words stuck in her throat and reached her lips.
, she couldn't say anything. Her hand on the dice Gu immediately let go, and she sat back in her seat slumped.
"No more gambling, it's boring!" she said in a sparse and normal tone, as if she wanted to blame this reaction on an insignificant joke between friends.
But sometimes, in front of some people.
The more I try to appear calm, the more it seems like I am trying to hide my ears.
Li Danqing saw it, but he didn't point it out. He also took back his hand on the dice Gu, spit out the dogtail grass in his mouth, and stared straight at the beautiful girl in front of him.
The door fell silent at this moment.
The red candle is still swaying, and the tulle is still swaying.
But the atmosphere became dull.
"so……"
"You still don't plan to let Ji Qi go, right?"
The prince's voice sounded faintly in the dull room.
