Chapter 39: Naraku

Views:

The beautiful Zhuang He looked at the three copper coins with a hint of surprise in her eyes, but she still smiled: "Young Master, it turns out you like to joke around."

"Are you kidding?" Su Baiyi scratched his head. "If we lose tonight, my sister and I won't even have buns to eat when we get off the boat."

"Then I'll open it." Zhuang He picked up the treasure box and saw that the three dice were four, four and five, which was really big. "It seems that you are lucky, young master."

Su Baiyi's eyes were fixed on the treasure box at this moment, his gaze burning: "Hurry up and play the next one."

"Okay." Zhuang He smiled and swung the treasure box in her hand again.

"This kid only bet three copper coins, but I bet thirty taels of silver. How come he is the biggest customer at this gambling table? Is the top customer so precious?" A pot-bellied middle-aged man patted his belly, somewhat dissatisfied.

"A guest of the Tianzihao is no longer a guest of the Jinfenghao. He is a guest of my Mu family. Naturally, he is very valuable. Not to mention three copper coins, even one copper coin is very valuable." Zhuang He said while swinging the treasure box.

"Are three copper coins too little?" Su Baiyi asked the middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man was stunned and laughed and scolded: "Isn't this nonsense?"

“But if I’m at the gambling table, and I throw in the money I won from the previous bet every time, even if it’s just three copper coins at the beginning, as long as I win thirty times in a row, I will be richer than the entire Mu family.” Su Baiyi said quietly.

"Young Master really likes to joke." Zhuang He slammed the treasure box in his hand on the table. "First, the Mu family should be much richer than you think. Second, no one can win thirty times in a row at the gambling table, especially at our Golden Wind. Even the God of Gamblers Xuanyuan Wuchang is the same."

"I'm betting on small this time." Su Baiyi placed six copper coins neatly on it.

“Boy, you’ve had three big draws in a row. Now you should go for the big one. If you bet on the small one, your entire fortune will be messed up.” The middle-aged fat man said with some contempt in his tone.

"If there is luck at the gambling table, it is the dealer's luck. Wouldn't it be better if it were in chaos?" Su Baiyi replied.

"What a fool!" The fat man threw a silver ingot on the table, "I'll buy the big one."

"Then everyone, buy it and leave!" Zhuang He picked up the treasure box, only to see that the three dice were one, one and two, but they were so small that they couldn't be any smaller.

"Don't be superstitious about these things. To win money, there are four words." Su Baiyi patted his chest, "Believe in yourself!"

"Bah! I just don't believe it. From now on, I'm going to bet against you!" The middle-aged fat man pulled the bulging purse from his waist.

"What a shame, give me half and I'll go back to sleep."

"roll!"

After six innings.

The copper coins in front of Su Baiyi turned into a row of silver ingots. The middle-aged fat man angrily threw the empty purse in his hand on the table, turned around and left. However, he did have some magnanimity and was willing to accept the defeat without saying a single harsh word.

Zhuang He, who always had a smile on his face and played the dice in a charming way, was sweating profusely. His hand holding the treasure box was trembling slightly. "I didn't expect that your gambling skills were so amazing."

"What's the gambling technique for betting on the size? It's just luck." Su Baiyi silently took back a silver ingot from the table and put it in his arms.

"Sir, you are too modest." Zhuang He took his hand back and took a step back. Then the little girl named Naraku put one hand on the gambling table, flipped over and jumped to Zhuang He's side, picked up the treasure box with her right hand, and said loudly: "Next, I will do it."

"Miss Naraku." Su Baiyi was stunned.

"Naraku has taken action personally, that will be interesting." On the second floor of the gambling house, someone in a private room opened the window and looked at the scene below curiously.

"Sir, that guy won seven games in a row, but was he cheating?" a woman's voice asked.

"You can't cheat with dice. Winning or losing all depends on the dealer's hands and their luck, so those real gamblers will never come to the casino to play this." The young man opened his folding fan and waved it gently. "But there are some noble families in the martial arts world who are good at studying the art of hidden weapons and are very good at listening to the wind and identifying positions. The powerful ones can use this technique in gambling. They look at the number of points when the dice enters the treasure box, and then listen carefully to the sound of the dice colliding in it, and finally they can accurately guess the number of points."

"What should we do then?" the woman asked.

"That depends on the skill of the Zhuang He. Some Zhuang He can swing the treasure box as loudly and noisily as the drums on the battlefield. Even the masters of the Tang Sect cannot tell the final score. And Naraku is the best Zhuang He on the Golden Wind." The young man smiled, "If this kid really wins thirty games in a row, he may be richer than the Mu family, but at least the Golden Wind will be his."

"Sir." Naraku put the treasure box on the table, "Please place your bets."

Su Baiyi wiped the sweat from his forehead and said slowly: "Naro, although you are not very old, how come you are so good at dice? Did you grow up in a casino?"

Naraku smiled and said, "To be honest, sir, Naraku was born in a casino."

"Oh?" Su Baiyi took back half of the silver on the table.

Naraku raised his eyebrows as he looked at Su Baiyi's actions: "Young Master intends to hold back this time."

"It's better to be cautious." Su Baiyi looked at the people around him and found that everyone else at the gambling table had taken back their chips and had no intention of participating. "Besides... I will win a lot this time, not just double it."

Naraku's pupils shrank slightly: "Young Master, what you mean is..."

"Here are about 40 taels of silver. If I win, you need to give me 960 taels." Su Baiyi pushed the silver in front of him forward, "I bet on the leopard."

Naraku put his hand on the treasure box and said, "My lord, you have been very cautious from the beginning till now, but you are taking a risk this time."

"Fortune comes from risk." Su Baiyi stared at the treasure box, squinting more and more tightly, "Miss Naraku, you must be careful when you turn over this treasure box, don't shake my dice."

Naraku's body trembled slightly, and the hand that was about to raise the treasure box stopped. She looked at Su Baiyi. They had spent a lot of time together at night. In her eyes, Su Baiyi was just a young man who had not experienced the world. But now facing the gambling table, he seemed to be able to see through everything.

"Don't be afraid, just open it." A man suddenly jumped up from the elegant building on the second floor, landed next to Naraku, reached out and grabbed Naraku's hand, his tone gentle.

"It's you." Su Baiyi was slightly surprised.

"It's me." The man smiled, "Naro, open."
