Chapter 431 Gambling
Chapter 431 Gambling
"Who are you talking about?"
Wan Chunhua asked subconsciously.
Chu Qing shook his head, feeling that the sword energy did not come from the third floor, but from the first floor.
Huangfu Yixiao ran to the first floor and got into a conflict with someone again?
This is Wanbao Tower after all... Is this kid really not worried about being kicked out?
He did not take it seriously, but asked Wan Chunhua:
"Did you have anything to say just now?"
Wan Chunhua thought for a moment:
"I forgot...wait, that's not right, why are you so young?"
“You have a problem with young people?”
Chu Qing raised an eyebrow.
“…That’s not the case.”
Wan Chunhua quickly shook his head:
"I just find it a little unbelievable. At your age, I still think you're too young to be my son..."
Chu Qing smiled:
"You really have never died."
Wan Chunhua's scalp tightened, and he felt Chu Qing's fierce murderous intent. Only then did he realize the offense of these words, and quickly waved his hand and said:
"I...I just said that. I can't control my mouth. Don't take it personally."
He also took off his mask as he spoke.
He revealed a rather flamboyant and slightly weathered face.
His skin was rough, his eyebrows were thick, and there was a scar on his left eye, but it did not look like his eyeball was injured.
The whole person's image does not look like a ranger, but rather like a wild and unruly thief.
If Chu Qing didn't think Wanbaolou would cheat, he would have suspected that this guy was one of the thirty-one thieves of Feiliu, who killed Wan Chunhua, the Lone Whale Blade, and then took someone else's place.
He commented in his heart but didn't say a word.
Just said lightly:
“I’m not a narrow-minded person, this is the first time… I tolerated it.
"If you offend me again, I will most likely bring your head as a witness when I kill Bai Yitian."
“…Okay, okay, you’re not that old, and I don’t know where this murderous aura comes from.”
As he spoke, the sound of the sword rang out again.
Chu Qing was really curious now. Who was it that repeatedly provoked the son of the Sword Emperor?
He immediately took Wan Chunhua downstairs to the second floor, and with the help of the maid, he went to the stairs on the first floor.
Halfway through the journey, I saw that for some reason, all the people on the first floor had gathered together.
"That's a gambling table...Are there gamblers here?"
Wan Chunhua took a glance and suddenly rubbed his hands:
"You can bet on anything at the gambling table in Wanbaolou. Some people have lost their families, and some have become rich overnight. If I hadn't been busy, I would have tried my luck first."
Chu Qing ignored him and walked towards the crowd.
Wan Chunhua reminded him:
"They are all experts, it's not easy to get in..."
Before he could finish his words, the crowd suddenly parted.
Wan Chunhua subconsciously thought that this group of people were promoting their style, but later he found that the faces of these people all changed drastically, and then he realized that Chu Qing had used some means.
While hurriedly following Chu Qing, he was amazed in his heart.
Although Chu Qing's ability to slay the evil Buddha was comparable to that of the Sun and the Moon, it still amazed him.
But when I saw Chu Qing's true face, I subconsciously felt that she was too young...
If you have no hair on your mouth, you will not be able to do things well.
The reason why this saying is so popular is because it makes sense.
Based on Wan Chunhua’s own experience, he has come into contact with many young people, but none of them was reliable.
Therefore, he had a preconceived notion of looking down on people of Chu Qing's age.
But now it seems that we can't compare them with ordinary people after all.
This person... is unfathomable.
As Chu Qing went deeper and deeper, he forced his way from outside the crowd to inside the crowd.
I felt there was empty space on both sides. When I looked up, I saw two people sitting opposite each other at a table.
Wan Chunhua didn't recognize any of these two people, so he gently poked Chu Qing's arm with his elbow:
"Who are these two?"
His voice was a little loud, and people around him looked at him.
Wan Chunhua didn't care about this, Chu Qing said softly:
"I don't know him either."
He really didn't know him.
One of the two sitting there is a young man wearing a mask.
The mask was not big, occupying a quarter of the entire face. To be precise, it only covered one eye...and the mask was quite luxurious, with glass and diamonds inlaid, and it was colorful.
His fingers were slender and white, like a woman's hands.
There was a hint of sarcasm and mockery in his eyes, and his posture was relaxed, full of a sense of ease.
Sitting opposite him was a girl.
The girl has a good appearance and an excellent temperament. She is cold and noble, like a fairy from the ninth heaven who has descended into the mortal world. People cannot even think of looking down on her.
However, Chu Qing's gaze did not linger on her, but looked at Huangfu Yixiao behind her.
How come the son of the Sword Emperor behaves like a fool at this moment?
He stood behind the girl angrily, staring at the man opposite, as if he wanted to cut him into pieces.
Standing on the other side of the girl were Wu Qianhuan and Wenrou.
Chu Qing was a little puzzled, how did they get together?
He immediately used the art of heavenly sound transmission to connect Wu Qianhuan and Wenrou, and asked:
"How is this going?"
The two of them had already seen Chu Qing and immediately started talking at once.
After they separated in the locker room on the third floor, the two of them came to the first floor to hang out.
There were a dazzling array of things in Wanbao Tower, and the two of them were having a great time. But at this moment, Huangfu Yixiao came down with the girl.
Wu Qianhuan told Chu Qing that the girl said her surname was Jiang, and Huangfu Yixiao also called her Miss Jiang.
Moreover, she is the owner of this Wanbao Building.
Although this girl had a cold temperament, she was not arrogant towards Wu Qianhuan and Wenrou. The three of them chatted casually and soon became very happy.
Then trouble ensued.
A maid from Wanbao Tower came over and said that someone was cheating at the gambling table. His methods were so sophisticated that ordinary people could not see through them.
Wanbaolou has plenty of silver and doesn't mind having its money taken away from them.
Winning or losing is a matter of skill, and Wanbaolou has always respected such skills.
So I didn’t want to pay attention to it…but I didn’t expect the maid to say that the distinguished guest threatened to gamble at Wanbao Tower.
Miss Jiang then had to show up.
But after she showed up, the man was stunned by Miss Jiang's appearance and said he wanted to win Miss Jiang away at the gambling table.
Huangfu Yixiao was so furious that he almost drew his sword to kill him.
This was also the first time Chu Qing felt Huangfu Yixiao's sword intent.
Miss Jiang stopped Huangfu Yixiao and made a bet with that man, but she didn't expect that the man was very good at gambling. The two of them agreed to a best-of-three game, and the man won a game against Miss Jiang as soon as he started.
He then said a few more unpleasant words, which made Huangfu Yixiao furious again.
In the end, he was still stopped by Miss Jiang.
Now the two of them are playing the second round. If Miss Jiang wins this round, it would be fine. If she loses, the man on the opposite side can take her away and do whatever he wants with her.
Wu Qianhuan and Wenrou were talking at once, with Wenrou's voice mixed with excitement:
"He just wants to sleep with Miss Jiang. Shameless and despicable!"
Chu Qing glanced at her and saw that her expression was indifferent. Who would have thought that deep down in her heart there were such ups and downs.
Speechless for a moment:
"Who taught you this?"
Gentle hummed:
"Sister Wu taught me."
From the tone of voice, it seems quite remarkable...
Chu Qing pondered for a long time but still couldn't figure out what was so amazing about it.
Wu Qianhuan hurriedly explained:
"It has nothing to do with me. Xiao Rourou learned it on her own."
Wenrou was about to explain, but suddenly she heard a commotion.
Chu Qing and the others immediately turned their attention back to the gambling table, but the person on the opposite side... won again!
Miss Jiang's cold face had lost all color.
She raised her eyes and looked at the person opposite her:
"Who are you?" Chu Qing's eyes darkened slightly. Almost everyone who came to Wanbao Tower had an invitation.
And this invitation was sent by Wanbaolou.
So Wanbaolou knows the identity of every visitor tonight, but doesn’t know who the person in front of him is?
"From now on, you and I will have fun every night. When our love is strong, I don't mind telling you my identity..."
The man said with a smile:
"As for now, I just want to ask one question, girl, will you come with me?"
Miss Jiang remained silent.
The man smiled:
“If the girl doesn’t want to, that’s fine.
"It is said that Wanbaolou is a fraud and is not as great as the rumors say. Can I still take the girl away by force?
"Not to mention that you are a martial arts expert, even if the maids and servants around you really want to stop me, I don't have the ability to take you away."
This is tantamount to the general's words.
Huangfu Yixiao narrowed his eyes, murderous intent flowing through them, and spoke coldly:
"Wanbaolou won't stop you, but I can. Anyway, I'm not from Wanbaolou, so how can I allow you to be so presumptuous?"
"What? Master Huangfu wants to fight me?"
The masked man laughed and said:
"Girl, someone wants to cause trouble in your Wanbao Building. Will you intervene or not?"
"It's obviously you who is causing trouble!"
Huangfu Yixiao was furious.
"Strange, where did I cause trouble?"
The masked man said in a puzzled tone:
"I didn't force anything, I proposed the bet and the girl could refuse it.
“Since she didn’t refuse, it depends on your ability.
“I beat her with my own ability, so of course she should go with me.
"Did any of these procedures violate Wanbaolou's rules?
"I am following the rules of Wanbaolou. How can that be considered as causing trouble?"
Huangfu Yixiao wanted to say something else, but Miss Jiang raised her hand to stop him:
"Okay, don't say any more.
"He's right..."
"Are you really going to go with him?"
Huangfu Yixiao looked at Miss Jiang in disbelief.
Miss Jiang took a deep breath:
"Yes, I will go with him..."
"This is absolutely not okay!"
"This is the rule of Wanbaolou!"
"Rules are dead, people are alive!"
"But... the rules of Wanbaolou will not be changed once they are set. If I change them without authorization, where will the credibility of Wanbaolou be?
“Everything in the world can be bought and sold in the building.
“Although I am the owner of this building, I can still trade as long as the price is high enough.
"He borrowed the gambling table to win from me, and I agreed. There's no reason for me to refuse to admit my loss."
Miss Jiang looked at Huangfu and smiled:
"Do you know how to gamble?"
"I?"
Huangfu smiled and was stunned:
"I only know how to use the sword..."
The light in Miss Jiang's eyes dimmed a little more. She sighed and stood up.
"Sir, where are you going to take me?"
"There should be a quiet room in your Wanbao Tower. Why don't you and I rest here for a night to deepen our understanding?"
When the masked man spoke, his face was full of a mean smile, and his eyes looked at Miss Jiang as if he wanted to eat her alive.
Miss Jiang gritted her teeth:
"Have……"
"No!!"
Huangfu Yixiao stopped him sternly.
Miss Jiang looked at him, her face also helpless:
"This is... the rule of Wanbaolou."
"Ha ha ha ha."
The masked man burst into laughter upon hearing this:
"That's great. I really like Wanbaolou now... It's worthy of being the best in the world. It's so trustworthy. If you don't make money, who will?"
He was full of pride and stood up, ready to take Miss Jiang away.
In Chu Qing's mind came Wu Qianhuan's gentle voice:
"What should we do? Should we really let her take Miss Jiang away?"
"Miss Jiang's meaning is very clear. Since her money was won away from the gambling table, she must win it back from the gambling table.
"But we are not good at gambling..."
Chu Qing listened to them talking, but couldn't help but ask:
"Speaking of which, Miss Jiang herself has become the stake, what chips did the other party take out?"
"Chips?"
Wu Qianhuan and Wenrou were both stunned. Finally, Wu Qianhuan said:
"It's his fate."
"Oh?"
Chu Qing raised his eyebrows, and seeing that Miss Jiang had gradually walked to the other side, he took a step forward and said:
"Wait a minute."
Huangfu Yixiao heard Chu Qing's voice and turned around to look for him. The moment his eyes fell on Chu Qing, he hurriedly shouted:
"Brother! You finally showed up, hurry up and save this bitch!!!"
"Who are you talking about?"
Even though Miss Jiang was in an extremely unfavorable situation at the moment, she couldn't help but glare at Huangfu Yixiao when she heard this.
Huangfu Yixiao ignored all this and just looked at Chu Qing.
And the masked man also looked at Chu Qing:
"Who are you? What do you want?"
"Nothing, just an ordinary guest."
Chu Qing smiled and said:
“Seeing that you guys are betting so much, I feel itchy and want to join in the fun.
"Well, mainly because you just won such a big prize, I'm really eager to try... How about we make a bet?"
"You want to bet with me? What?"
The masked man asked coldly.
"Just bet on this girl."
Chu Qing pointed at Miss Jiang:
"I think this girl is pretty. She serves tea and water, massages feet and backs. I think she is very comfortable."
Upon hearing this, Miss Jiang glanced at Chu Qing unhappily, and then glared at Huangfu Yixiao fiercely.
Huangfu Yixiao was puzzled. He didn't say those words, so why was he glaring at him for no reason?
"You want to bet with me on her? What a joke! Do you know who she is?"
The masked man looked up and sneered.
Chu Qing nodded:
"She is the owner of this Wanbao Building."
"Since you know this, what do you want to bet with me!?"
"How is my life?"
Chu Qing answered.
"... With just a worthless life, what qualifications do I have to compare with her?"
When the masked man said this, his expression suddenly changed.
Sure enough, I heard Chu Qing say:
"Yes, a mere life can be used to fight for the owner of Wanbao Tower. Isn't this deal too good?
"Everyone, do you think this gamble is really reasonable?
"Why didn't you realize that the stakes were unequal from the beginning!?"
