"Young Master..." Naraku called softly, with a hint of apology in his tone. Jumping down from the private room on the second floor, standing next to her was none other than the seventh young master of the Mu family, Mu Nianhua. The entire casino became extremely quiet in an instant. The young master of the Mu family appeared in person. What a grand gesture. How could a few taels of silver be lured him here

"You're still too young." Mu Nianhua scratched Naraku's head, his tone more doting, "I don't want to lose."

Naraku gritted his teeth and finally raised the hand holding the treasure box slightly.

"Forget it." Mu Nianhua's hand suddenly pressed down, crushing the treasure box and the three dice inside it into pieces. Then he shook his hand naturally and said in a nonchalant tone, "I accidentally used too much force. It seems that the treasure boxes on the ship are too fragile. I will replace them all with new ones later."

Su Baiyi smiled, but was not angry: "I didn't expect the Mu family to be so dishonest?"

"Of course not." Mu Nianhua placed a bead in his arms on the table.

"Night Pearl!" someone in the hall shouted.

"This pearl is called Wen Duo. It was a gift I received on my birthday one year. I originally gave it to your wife, but you returned it. This pearl is worth three boxes of gold. Do you want to bet?" Mu Nianhua asked.

"Who are you betting with this time?" Su Baiyi asked.

Mu Nianhua waved his sleeves: "Me."

"Young Master!" Naraku said anxiously.

"I have made up my mind." Mu Nianhua signaled Naraku not to speak.

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone in the casino gathered around, even the high-stakes gambling rooms that had originally had their doors closed opened one after another. A middle-aged man dressed as a wealthy man stepped out, walked through the crowd in three steps, and came to Su Baiyi's side.

"Mr. He?" Mu Nianhua raised his eyebrows slightly.

"It is said that you, the seventh son, are the only one in the Mu family who is not doing his job properly. He is not good at business, and he is the best at gambling and drinking. I want to see." The rich man patted Su Baiyi's shoulder, "Young man, if you don't want to gamble, then I will do it."

"Of course I'll bet." Su Baiyi slammed his right hand on the gambling table. "If I lose, I'll take the bead!"

The whole room was in uproar.

"Are you crazy?"

"If you lose, you still want the bead. If you win, will the Golden Wind also belong to you?"

"Such a good bet, I'll do it!"

But Mu Nianhua's expression remained unchanged, as if he was not surprised by Su Baiyi's words. He just nodded and asked, "What if you win?"

"Please ensure that I, my master, and my wife have a safe journey." Su Baiyi said in a deep voice.

"You are a guest of the Mu family now that you are on the Golden Wind. Especially since you are a guest of the Tianzi Room, it is only natural for me to keep you safe." Mu Nianhua shook his head. "There is no need to gamble on this matter. Let's change the conditions."

"When I say safety, I mean real safety." Su Baiyi emphasized.

"I'd like to hear the details." Mu Nianhua spread his hands.

"As long as the Golden Wind has not docked, no one can harm me and my wife unless you, Mu Nianhua, are dead!" Su Baiyi tapped the table lightly. "This is the kind of peace I want. Are you still willing to gamble?"

Unless you die, I must live.

On this ship, whose life is more valuable than the seventh son of the Mu family

Even Naraku's eyes showed some anger at this moment, and the guards guarding the gambling house had their hands on the hilts of their swords, ready to make a move. At this moment, as long as Mu Nianhua gave the order, they would throw this rude guy into the river without hesitation.

"At first I thought you were quite naive, like a silly boy who had never traveled far. Now I think you are quite smart, as if you have experienced some life-and-death difficulties." Mu Nianhua shook his head and smiled, "You must have offended some powerful person, so you have to make such a heart-breaking bet with me."

Su Baiyi also laughed: "You are right. I have never been far away from home, and I have experienced many life and death situations."

"Okay, I agree." Mu Nianhua did not give those around him a chance to stop him, and picked up the treasure box on the table, "The bet is made, life and death are determined by fate-"

"Wealth and honor come from God!" Su Baiyi stared at the treasure box in Mu Nianhua's hand.

"It's really interesting, more interesting than your brothers." The rich man standing next to Su Baiyi also stared at the treasure box, with a little more expectation and curiosity in his eyes.

The whole audience was silent.

It seemed that the only sound that could be heard was the dice colliding in the treasure box.

one time.

Twice.

Three times,

After three hits, the sound of the dice colliding never appeared again.

Su Baiyi moved his ears slightly, trying his best to use his ability to hear the wind and determine the location to the extreme.

But still, there was no sound at all!

Mu Nianhua smiled and waved the treasure box in his hand, up and down, with great movement. Several times he even threw the treasure box directly into the air. The three dice were clearly exposed in front of everyone, and they were indeed spinning rapidly. The next moment he covered the treasure box again, waving it left and right, and said in a somewhat proud voice: "Even if the old man of the Tang family came here in person, he would not be able to tell the points among them."

"Who did you learn this gambling skill from?" asked the rich man.

"Xuanyuan Wuchang." Mu Nianhua said the name of the God of Gamblers as if it was a matter of course.

"If that's true." The rich man nodded, "I can't bet on this game either, kid, just admit defeat."

Su Baiyi shrugged: "I don't want that bead."

"You can't even afford the boat fare, and you can get a lot of money by selling this pearl. It will ensure you have a worry-free life. Why don't you want it?" Mu Nianhua asked back.

Su Baiyi curled his lips: "If you want to give this bead away so much, then getting it will definitely cause a lot of other troubles."

"It's not a problem. Maybe I can get a very, very, very beautiful woman." Mu Nianhua sighed softly, "Unfortunately, I don't want it, and I don't deserve it."

"It turns out that this bead was sent by the Ye family back then..." the rich man whispered.

"Alright!" Mu Nianhua put the treasure box on the table, "Mr. Su, please place your bet."

Su Baiyi looked at the treasure box, held his breath, narrowed his eyes, and pondered for a long time without saying anything. However, the people around him did not dare to rush him, because Mu Nianhua was also waiting for him patiently, and there was even some expectation in his eyes. Only the rich man was sneering. He saw through that Su Baiyi was just being mysterious at the moment. The matter of listening to the points should be ended directly at the moment the dice fell, and any subsequent thinking would be unnecessary.

"I bet on big!" Su Baiyi said solemnly.

"Okay." Mu Nianhua raised the treasure box.
