“No, no, it’s impossible!…”
After Xu Taiping won six consecutive rounds by betting on “small”, the dealer in charge of this table finally couldn’t help but exclaimed ina somewhat out of control manner.
”Is there something wrong?”
Xu Taiping looked at the dealer, with a hint of confusion on his face.
”No… nothing’s wrong.”
The dealer smiled awkwardly and quickly shook his head.
In fact, if there really was a problem, it should be with his dice cup.
”Guest official, since you’re so lucky, why don’t we bet on something else and make the bet bigger.”
The dealer looked at Xu Taiping with a smile.
Although this was Xu Taiping’s first time in a gambling house, he could still guess what the dealer was up to.
”I’m not playing anymore. If I play any longer, I’m afraid I’ll be scolded by our young miss.”
Xu Taiping weighed the heavy money bag in his hand, and then, while speaking, he turned his head to look in the direction of Xuanyuan Xueluo.
The dealer, who had originally thought of teaching Xu Taiping a lesson, immediately gave up this idea after seeing Xuanyuan Xueluo’s back, and secretly thought:
”Forget it, it’s only over thirty taels of silver. At worst, I’ll be scolded by the shopkeeper once.”
The bets at his table weren’t very big. It was originally to attract some casual customers, let them taste some sweetness first, and then go into the inner room to bet big.
And Xu Taiping was the first to accept the silver and stand up.
He didn’t play those few rounds just now to make money. He just wanted to test his luck as the leader of the Golden Scale.
“Young master, I never would have guessed that you could listen to the dice.”
Just as Xu Taiping returned to the side of Xuan Yuan Xueluo, Zhang Lao’s voice was transmitted into his ears.
“I don’t know how to listen to the dice.”
While looking at the gambling table, Xu Taiping replied to Zhang Lao without a trace of expression.
“You don’t know how to listen to the dice? But you just won six consecutive rounds.”
Zhang Lao was a bit surprised.
Although just now, in order not to attract the attention of Xuan Yuan Xueluo, he didn’t go to the gambling table with Xu Taiping, he still paid attention to the situation over there.
“To tell you the truth, Zhang Lao, you definitely won’t believe it. The reason I can win is really entirely by luck.”
Xu Taiping turned around and looked at Zhang Lao.
“Young master, you’re really joking. How could anyone have such good luck and be able to guess the size every time?”
Zhang Lao still thought that Xu Taiping was joking.
Xu Taiping didn’t know how to explain either, so he changed the topic and asked Zhang Lao:
“Zhang Lao, how is it going with Miss Xueluo here?”
At this moment, what was being gambled on the table was pai gow. Although Xu Taiping had heard of it, he couldn’t understand it at all.
“The little girl is just gambling out of pride. How could she be a match for that Zhou Liang? Just in the time it took to drink a cup of tea, she has already lost nine thousand taels.”
Elder Zhang smiled and transmitted his voice to Xu Taiping.
“Miss Xueluo, this round is also my win.”
At this time, that Zhou Liang pushed the cards on the table forward and then looked at Xuanyuan Xueluo opposite with a smile.
“Come again!”
Xuanyuan Xueluo still didn’t want to admit defeat, but when she wanted to take the silver, she found that her sleeve was already empty and there was only an 800-tael banknote left on the table.
“Miss Xueluo, if you don’t have any silver, you can go back to the mansion to get it. I, Zhou, will be happy to accompany you at any time before the start of the Iron Armor.
Zhou Liang smiled and flicked a stack of banknotes in his hand, and the sarcasm and provocation were palpable.
Xuanyuan Xueluo glared at that Zhou Liang, and then forcibly suppressed the anger in her heart and turned her head to look at Xu Taiping and Elder Zhang and said:
“Do you have any silver on you?”
“I brought some, but Miss Xueluo, forget it.”
Elder Zhang said with a bitter smile.
Like Xu Taiping, he had some gold and silver obtained from the first three floors of the Mysterious Wilderness Tower on him. Although it wasn’t much, it was still no problem to make up more than 1,000 taels.
“What nonsense, bring it here!” Xuanyuan Xueluo stretched out her hand to Elder Zhang. “I’ll pay you back twice as much when we go back!”
At this moment, her appearance was no different from that of a gambler who was desperate for gambling.
”Miss, how about letting me gamble for you for a while? I just tried a few hands and my luck is very good.”
At this time, Xu Taiping suddenly took out a heavy money bag and put it on the gambling table.
The old Zhang on the side immediately understood and also handed his money bag to Xu Taiping’s hand, and then said with a smile to Xuanyuan Xueluo: “Miss Xueluo, Rusty Lion’s luck is indeed good. You really can let him give it a try.”
”You?”
Xuanyuan Xueluo looked at Xu Taiping with some suspicion.
”Miss Xueluo, these silver coins add up to at least two thousand taels. You can let me try one hand first. If it doesn’t work, it’s not too late for you to take action.”
Xu Taiping also put the money bag handed over by old Zhang on the gambling table.
Hearing this and looking at the money bag on the table again, Xuanyuan Xueluo finally nodded and said:
”Well, you give it a try.”
At this moment, Xuanyuan Xueluo had also calmed down a lot and was no longer as hot-headed as just now.
Saying that, she stood up and vacated the position.
”Sister, let me do it. This kid doesn’t look like he can play.”
Who knew that as soon as Xuanyuan Xueluo’s buttocks moved away from the chair, that Sun Can immediately sat down.
”Pa!”
Without saying a word, Xuanyuan Luoxue slapped out, directly slapped that Sun Can off the chair, and then kicked him and said: “Get lost!”
Although she was still brooding over Xu Taiping’s comment that her buttocks were as hard as a rock, in fact, she was quite convinced of the cultivation strength of Xu Taiping and his group.
Especially considering their identity as outsiders from another world.
“I heard that outsiders from other worlds all have supernatural powers. Maybe this kid really has a way to win at the gambling table.”
Xuan Yuan Xueluo muttered to herself in her heart.
And at this time, Xu Taiping had already sat down on the chair.
“Little brother, how do you want to bet?”
Zhou Liang looked at Xu Taiping with a smile.
Everything in this gambling house was arranged by him personally. Even if the person opposite was extremely skilled in gambling, it would be useless.
“Then let’s play dice and compare the size. This is a bit simpler.”
Xu Taiping replied seriously after thinking for a while.
Since the other party let him choose, of course he had to choose something he was slightly more familiar with.
