Yu Manwen, who had returned from another hard night patrol, heard an extremely excited voice coming from the main hall, and veins suddenly popped out on his head.
'No...this voice seems to be Xiaoduo's? No wonder the gatekeeper suddenly changed today, this Jiang Beiran! Fortunately, I thought he led the hall master in a good direction! Why did he take Xiaoduo with him to gamble?
!'
Thinking that Xiao Duo had finally been led astray, the blue veins on Yu Manwen's forehead instantly turned into two.
"Bang!" opened the door, and Yu Manwen walked in with a cold face.
Xiaoduo, who was about to throw the dice, immediately stood up straight, saluted and shouted: "See the protector."
"Xiaoduo! Why are you making trouble with them?"
Xiaoduo was waiting for an answer when Jiang Beiran stood up first and said, "Why don't you join us as the protector? We happen to be short of one."
"Jiang Beiran, you are getting more and more courageous... hmm? What is this?" Yu Manwen asked doubtfully, looking at the square colored wooden board on the table and the twelve "little people" placed on it.
.
"This is called Xia Ke Xing. It's a folk gambling method in Fu'an. Would you like to try it, Protector Yu?"
In fact, since the past few days, Yu Manwen has discovered that the hall master's "bad habits" have slowly changed. The flower arms that he used to draw every day are no longer drawn, and the agate-mouthed huanghuali pipe has not been seen for a long time.
I don’t even wear open-collared clothes anymore.
This surprised Yu Manwen. You must know that she had tried to persuade her on these matters several times, but for Shi Fenglan, these were all matters of principle. It was like you could let her gamble less, but you could not allow her to gamble.
The same, every time it can only treat the symptoms but not the root cause.
The only change that has happened to the hall master recently is the appearance of Jiang Beiran, so although Yu Manwen doesn't know what Jiang Beiran did, he knows that the change in the hall master must be because of him.
Now seeing Jiang Beiran blinking, Yu Manwen immediately understood that Jiang Beiran was going to help the hall master "quit gambling" this time.
"Ahem!"
After coughing twice, Yu Manwen shouted: "No! No matter where the gambling method is, it is gambling! It is not allowed!"
"Okay~" Jiang Beiran shrugged and was about to pack up when he saw Shi Fenglan protecting the chessboard and saying: "No, no! My Hidden Hero and Iron Beggar have already landed on Knight Island! Gust of Wind and Chain Fairy have also arrived.
Fight side by side and you will defeat me soon."
Jiang Beiran could only spread his hands after hearing this, meaning it was useless for you to tell me.
So Shi Fenglan immediately stood up and grabbed Yu Manwen's arm and said: "Manwen! Just let me finish the gamble~ just one~"
Taking a deep breath, Yu Manwen glanced at Shi Fenglan and said, "Just a handful?"
"Yeah! Just a handful! I promise!" Shi Fenglan raised her index finger, middle finger, and ring finger to the sky and said.
"Okay, just this one."
"Yeah~ I knew you were the best, Manwen!" After finishing speaking, Shi Fenglan sat back on the chair and shouted: "Come on, come on, Xiaoduo, roll the dice quickly, you won't be able to run away, hehehehe."
Xiaoduo glanced at Yu Manwen first, and when the latter nodded towards her, he happily picked up the dice again and shouted: "As long as you give me a six, my Peter Pan can fly up to the Qinggong point.
Give me a six, give me a six!"
Turning his head to look at the 12 lifelike little people, Yu Manwen couldn't help but sigh that Jiang Beiran's hands were really skillful.
Half an hour later...
As Shi Fenglan shouted "Give me four!", the dice rolled several times on the table and finally stopped on the side with four points.
"Hahahaha! Four! It's four! It's finally here!"
Amid laughter, Shi Fenglan picked up her Chain Fairy and a gust of wind and boarded the Knight Island.
"I won! Haha, I finally won!" Shi Fenglan shouted while pulling out a note and pasting it on Jiang Beiran's forehead.
Jiang Beiran nodded with a sad face and sighed: "I didn't expect that the hall master is very talented in the knight's trade."
"Hahaha! That's right! What's so great about this hall master? In the past, he was just trying to get around you, a young disciple."
"Yes, Hall Master Shengming."
"Come on, come on, let's do it again!" As soon as Shi Fenglan finished speaking, she saw Yu Manwen looking over with kind eyes.
Shi Fenglan, who suddenly lost all arrogance and arrogance, said flatteringly: "I want to play again..."
"no!"
Hearing Yu Manwen's firm tone, Jiang Beiran stood up and said, "It's time for me to resign. I haven't finished my homework for today."
But Shi Fenglan grabbed Jiang Beiran and said, "No, you promised to play with me for a while longer today."
"Master, Haishi is almost over."
"Ah? Is it so late?" Shi Fenglan asked in surprise.
"Yes, Protector Yu has returned from his night patrol."
"Okay, then you should come early tomorrow."
"I'll try my best." After Jiang Beiran said that, he took the "Xia Ke Xing" back into the Qiankun Ring, leaving only Shi Fenglan's favorite chain fairy.
"Brother Jiang..." Xiaoduo suddenly said.
"Huh?" Jiang Beiran looked at Xiaoduo.
"If possible...can you put Peter Pan here as well, just temporarily?"
"Here, I'll give it to you."
Jiang Beiran said, placing "Peter Pan" on the table, and then said to Shi Fenglan and Yu Manwen: "Then disciples will leave first."
After saying that, he turned around and left.
Not even two steps out of the Mirror Garden, Jiang Beiran heard Yu Manwen's voice beside him.
"Thank you for taking this time."
"Dragon Protector Yu is serious, I'm just messing around with Master Shi."
"You really don't think I can tell if you are fooling around." Yu Manwen said and smiled, "Do you really think that any disciple can fool around with me, the master of Shuijing Hall?"
"Then I really want to thank the protector for giving me this opportunity."
"Then do you know why I agreed to you staying with our hall master?"
Just as Jiang Beiran was about to speak, he saw three options popping up.
[Option 1: Tell me the reason for your guess. Completion reward: Linfeng Slash (low-grade Xuan level)]
[Option 2: "I would like to hear the details." Completion reward: Completion reward: Kun Di Ling (yellow level top grade)]
[Option 3: “I don’t want to know.” Completion reward: Random basic attribute point +1]
Decisively choosing three, Jiang Beiran immediately replied: "I don't want to know."
Yu Manwen, whose feelings were already brewing, almost couldn't catch his breath. He couldn't help but glared at Jiang Beiran and said, "Why don't you listen every time I want to talk about this?"
"Because it feels very dangerous and I don't want to get involved."
"..."
After a moment of silence, Yu Manwen sighed and said, "You are as honest as ever, but in fact this is not a very dangerous topic."
"Please protect me and please don't embarrass me." Jiang Beiran said with cupped hands.
Seeing Jiang Beiran's attitude of running away at full speed if you dare to say anything, Yu Manwen could only sigh again.
