Jia Ruidao skillfully shuffled the cards and then gave three dark cards to Tan Xiu and himself. Then, he put the rest of the cards aside and continued.
"After the dealer has finished dealing the cards, he will put the cards on the table in front of him. I once heard of an expert who could use the cards in his hand to shoot out and hit the remaining cards in the deck. With a very fast speed, he would hit out the cards he needed, and his original cards would be left in the remaining cards. However, a gambler who can do this is definitely a God of Gamblers. For example, there is such a God of Gamblers in the Las Vegas Casino. "
Suddenly …
Jia Ruidao patted his forehead and said in annoyance, "I forgot a crucial factor. That is, memorizing and calculating the cards. Your eyes must always stare at the dealer's hand and follow his rhythm. You must remember and calculate the position of each card. Especially when you cut the cards, you must be accurate. "
Tan Xiu followed Jia Ruidao's explanation and touched his three cards. When he saw the numbers on the cards, his brows suddenly wrinkled. His eyes swept over the remaining cards that Jia Ruidao had just put down. His hand moved as fast as lightning, and in an instant, he had already finished changing the cards.
"Even smaller?"
Tan Xiu secretly sighed inside.
He realized that he didn't carefully look at the cards that Jia Ruidao shuffled. He also didn't remember each card's face and position. Seeing that Jia Ruidao didn't notice him changing the cards, he immediately clamped a card and changed it again.
"4 of spades, 5 of hearts, 6 of hearts, straight?"
Tan Xiu flipped the cards and said, "It's your turn."
Jia Ruidao said with a smile, "My luck is good. Mine … "
As he spoke, his hand quickly swept the remaining cards in front of him. But almost in an instant, Tan Xiu quickly and accurately grabbed his wrist. As for the card that Jia Ruidao was holding in his hand, he did not exchange it.
"Don't play with your hand speed in front of me."
Jia Ruidao's expression turned dumbfounded. He looked at Tan Xiu's hand in disbelief, and the corner of his mouth twitched a few times. He smiled bitterly and said, "It's really hard to believe. How can your eyes be so sharp? How can your hand be so fast? My hand speed was fast, partly because of my talent, and partly because of my decades of practice. But you … "
Tan Xiu lightly said, "I practice martial arts, so I need to be observant and alert. My punches are as fast as lightning, and my palms are as fast as light. Unless it's someone who's faster than me, I'll easily find out if they cheat in front of me. "
Jia Ruidao was overjoyed and said, "That's great! I really didn't expect that Brother Tang is a martial artist. After today's lesson, my worried heart can finally be at ease. To be honest, it's a great loss for the gambling industry that you're not a professional gambler, Brother Tang. I feel that if you can focus on practicing your gambling skills, you can become a famous gambling master in at most three to five years. "
Gambling grandmaster?
Tan Xiu secretly rolled his eyes inside. He had nothing better to do, so he became a gambling grandmaster. Not to mention that he didn't have the slightest interest in gambling, he needed to cultivate and enhance his strength to return to the peak of the Immortal World. He couldn't wait to race against time, so he didn't have the time to waste.
"Grumble …"
Suddenly, a sound came from Jia Ruidao's stomach.
Tan Xiu smiled indifferently and said, "It's very late now. Let's go out and eat something first! I've already memorized all the gambling techniques you taught me. I'll practice them again tonight. "
Jia Ruidao had exhausted his mind and spirit on the gambling table during the day, so he was in a tense state. After he came back, he taught Tan Xiu gambling techniques. Seeing Tan Xiu's extraordinary talent that could easily accept and learn almost every gambling method, Jia Ruidao was overjoyed. His mood changed from great sorrow to great joy, causing him to feel a burst of exhaustion at this moment. Upon hearing Tan Xiu's words, he naturally raised his hands in agreement.
"Brother Tang, my disciples should have booked a private box. Let's go now!"
After leaving the presidential suite, Jia Ruidao's eldest disciple, Gong Dalong, was waiting outside the door. Upon seeing the two of them coming out, he immediately respectfully said, "Master, Grandmaster Tang, I've booked a private box in the Everlasting Feast Hall. Second Junior Brother and Little Junior Brother are already waiting there."
"Good!"
Jia Ruidao nodded in satisfaction. He looked at Tan Xiu and quickly said, "Brother Tang, the Everlasting Feast Hall is Jingmen Island's specialty restaurant. It's a very high-class place. If you're not a member, you simply can't enter the door."
"Yeah!"
Tan Xiu nodded. He didn't have a favorable impression toward those restaurants and clubs in the country that easily required one's status and title. It was because the slogan of this new era was "Everyone is equal and build a harmonious society together."
However, to set up such a threshold was to divide people into three, six or nine ranks. If it was in the world of immortal cultivation, Tan Xiu might have been accustomed to it. But in this new era, it made him feel like he was "building a monument to his chastity".
Sitting in the Mercedes-Benz, passing through the bustling city, the car changed direction on a small road near the coastline. On the two-lane road in the lush forest, apart from the dim yellow street lights, there was hardly a single car in sight. Occasionally, a few security guards on sensor cars would pass by them silently.
Gradually.
The sound of the waves seemed to come from the sky, and as the car moved forward, the sound became clearer and clearer. Finally, lights that looked like twinkling stars appeared in front of Tan Xiu.
"Hmm?"
Tan Xiu looked at the lights and was shocked. He cried out involuntarily, "Water Block Dragon Lock Array?"
Jia Ruidao was confused and asked, "Brother Tang, what did you say?"
Tan Xiu took a deep breath, trying to calm his breathing. He turned to look at Jia Ruidao and asked, "Is this the Everlasting Feast Hall? How much do you know about this restaurant? "
Jia Ruidao shook his head and said, "Very few. The owner of this restaurant is definitely a mysterious dragon whose head and tail are hard to be seen. Legend has it that the Everlasting Feast Hall has existed since the beginning of Jingmen Island's development. Only, its scale has continued to expand. That's right, there's also a special case. "
"What special case?" Tan Xiu asked.
Jia Ruidao lowered his voice and said, "You can dine in this Everlasting Feast Hall. Even if it's a sky-high price, the food here is absolutely delicious. The wine here is a bejeweled nectar that makes people salivate. Those who come here, aside from those with money and status, there is another kind of people who can enter. That is, martial arts practitioners. "
"Martial arts practitioners?"
Tan Xiu was confused by Jia Ruidao's words.
Jia Ruidao explained, "Yes, they are martial arts practitioners. The most puzzling thing is that every martial arts practitioner who comes here can eat and drink for free as long as they can pass through the Thousand Revolution Array set up by the restaurant owner. "
"Thousand Revolution Array?"
Tan Xiu's heart shook violently as his complexion instantly turned pale.
His mind couldn't help but recall the days in the Immortal World. He recalled the martial arts field in the towering palace, and the figure of the little girl in white fluttering in the wind. In the dark, that young and tender voice lingered in his ears.
"Master, Yan 'er has tried to break through the Thousand Revolution Array 3600 times, how come she still can't break through? Did you act shamelessly and set up the little golden man in the kun position? "
"Master, Yan 'er has finally broken through. I'm very happy. You said that I've grown up after breaking through the Thousand Revolution Array. Has Yan' er grown up?"
"Master, Yan 'er has personally brewed this Hundred Flowers Pure Wine. Please have a taste …"
"Master …"
Tan Xiu's eyes were filled with a glimmer of sparkling and translucent light.
6,500 years!
It had been 6,500 years!
His favorite disciple, the one who helped him find the Ten Thousand Year Ice Soul, had rushed alone into the Dead Sea of Netherworld. Since then, there had been no news of her. He had been sad for 6,500 years, and vowed that he would never accept a personal disciple again.
"Impossible! Even though I only taught her the Thousand Revolution Array. Even though the Water Block Dragon Array is my own creation, and I only taught it to her. But this should only be a coincidence, a coincidence. "
Tan Xiu kept repeating this sentence in his heart.
Soon …
The Mercedes-Benz car was parked in the spacious parking lot. Jia Yelei, who had been waiting for a long time, stepped forward and opened the door. He then looked at Tan Xiu and his father coming out.
"Dad, Grandmaster Tang, the box has been booked. We're just waiting for you."
Jia Ruidao slowly nodded. He looked at Tan Xiu and said, "Grandmaster Tang, let's go together."
Tan Xiu was silent for a moment and then said, "Tell me the box number. I'm a bit bored and want to go out for a walk. Wait for me to get some fresh air. I'll go to the box to find you. "
"This …"
Jia Ruidao hesitated.
Tan Xiu waved his hand and said, "Just go! I'll be fine. "
Jia Ruidao nodded and said, "If that's the case, then we'll go in first. Brother Tang, if there's anything, just call me first. "
"Alright!"
Tan Xiu nodded without a word.
After sending off Jia Ruidao and his disciple, Tan Xiu identified the direction. He passed through the forest trail, bypassed the fountain square, and went straight to the coastline. The starlight filled the sky, illuminating the sparkling sea surface. Thousands of meters away from the coastline, a lone boat was drifting along with the waves. Tan Xiu's eyes were sharp. He could clearly see that there was a thin figure inside the lone boat. Looking at it, there was a thick sense of desolation and loneliness.
Tan Xiu took a deep breath and sat cross-legged on the beach.
"The Great Dao is a thousand trials and tribulations, cutting through thistles and thorns."
"The Heavens do not move, my heart is tranquil."
"Myriad sects return to the heart."
"…"
The Great Sorrow and Great Joy Clearheart Incantation surged in Tan Xiu's heart. The Heaven and Earth spiritual Qi from all directions roared and rushed over, as though a clear spring was washing his rippling heart.
Ten minutes later …
On the lone boat a kilometer away, the countenance of the gorgeous girl sitting cross-legged suddenly changed. A surprised look flashed in her starry eyes as she quickly turned her head to look at the coastline. She was keenly aware that the Heaven and Earth spiritual Qi around her was unexpectedly rushing toward the figure sitting cross-legged on the shore.
