In the photo, one could clearly see that it was a man, but because he was wearing a white half-mask, it was difficult to determine his age.
"This is the God of Gamblers, Tu Shenyi." In the MPV, Song Ying used her finger to swipe the pad in front of her. There were only three photos in total.
"Tu Shenyi won't resist being photographed because no one knows what he looks like. Of course, there are people who use technology to deduce his original facial contours based on the lines of the mask and restore his appearance. But reality has proven that this is not feasible. People still can't find his true face. "
"If you don't see people with their true faces …" Luoqiu looked back and forth at the photos on the pad and asked curiously, "Then how did your people find him here?"
Song Ying crossed her arms and said, "In addition to his amazing gambling skills, Tu Shenyi is also a wine master. Twenty years ago, Tu Shenyi brewed a batch of wine called the 'Daylily Series.' There are a total of seven bottles. Three of them were sold at a high price at an auction in London. As for the remaining four, two of them are in the hands of two of Tu Shenyi's friends. He himself only has two. And this time, the legendary 'Daylily Series' will appear at the wine tasting, and it won't be the five known bottles. "
Luoqiu suddenly understood. "So, it was him who took the initiative to reveal his whereabouts, and he wasn't found?"
Song Ying glared at Luoqiu with dissatisfaction. "If our Song family can't find him, others can't find him either."
Luoqiu smiled and naturally changed the topic. "In this wine tasting, what is the name of the legendary wine?"
Song Ying said seriously, "Daylily, Forgetting River."
"Forgetting River?" Luoqiu was stunned, then asked curiously, "Very interesting name. What are the other Daylily Series called? "
Song Ying didn't expect Luoqiu to be so curious, but she was a person who liked to be prepared, so her finger drew on the tablet again.
She then used her mellow and magnetic voice to slowly say: "Other than the River of Forgetfulness, the five known 'Daylily' series are 'Spider Lily', 'Limbo', 'Three Lives', 'Yellow Springs', and '97'."
"This …" Gan Hong who was sitting next to them heard and couldn't help but frown. "Why does the name sound so desolate?"
Song Ying shrugged and said, "Maybe it's a personal preference. It was said that the rich businessman who bought one of the 'Daylily' series at the auction didn't act like other collectors who bought it and kept it well. Instead, he chose to sober up and taste it. After drinking it, his face was covered in tears and he said some strange words. After that, he dispersed his family's property and set up a charity organization, and he disappeared. Someone said that he once saw him in a small fishing village by the sea. He went out to sea alone in a small boat and finally disappeared in the ocean. The wine of the Daylily series is rumored to have incredible power that can make people forget their past and present lives. But some people think that the rich businessman was cursed by the Daylily, so the Daylily series is called a cursed wine. "
Song Ying paused and thought for a while, "Just like those gems left behind in history, even if there are many tragedies that happened to it, people still flock to it. Three years ago, a rich man in the Middle East once offered 150 million to buy a bottle of the Daylily series. "
If it was in the past, Luoqiu would probably sigh like ordinary people and not understand the world of these rich people … But at this time, he had a strong interest in the Daylily series.
Forget the past and present lives … The simple chemical composition in red wine doesn't seem to be able to achieve this effect.
"Of course, this is just a rumor." Song Ying put away her tablet. "Because there are also people who say that this rich businessman was actually suspected of commercial fraud and was wanted, so he had no choice but to set up a charity organization and transfer his assets. He also went into hiding … Anyway, there are different opinions."
"I agree with the latter explanation." Gan Hong said indifferently.
Luoqiu said, "Which bottle of Daylily series did the rich businessman drink? What's the name?"
Song Ying glanced at the information and said, "Red Spider Lily."
At this time, Gan Hong glanced at a manor that could be vaguely seen in front of them, and whispered, "It seems to be here."
…
…
"Red Spider Lily, the flower that blooms on the road to the underworld."
The blue Porsche walked on the shady road. Ajay smiled slightly at this time, "There are many legends, but in fact, it's just a plant in the Amaryllis family."
Zhong Luoyue said indifferently, "It doesn't matter whether the rumor is true or not. What's important is how many people are willing to pay for this rumor. When the whole world thinks it's true, even if only you know it's false, is it still false? "
Ajay whistled softly, and the sports car drove out of the small road and came to a gate.
At this time, a burly middle-aged uncle in front of the gate quickly pushed the door open. Ajay parked the sports car here, opened his hands and laughed, "Haha, Uncle Jin! Long time no see! "
Uncle Jin also opened his hands and hugged Ajay, and then patted Ajay's shoulder, "Good boy, I haven't seen you for a few years, and you've grown up again."
"I've been practicing a lot." Ajay flexed the muscles on his arms, and then said directly, "Where's Master? I haven't seen him for a long time, and I brought back some hometown specialties for him. "
"Your master is busy. Many people came today, and he said he needs to prepare well. I haven't seen him so energetic in a long time … By the way, this is? "
Uncle Jin was an old man who had followed Tu Shenyi for many years, and he had a good eye. When he first saw Zhong Luoyue, he knew that this woman was not simple.
Ajay said bluntly, "She's Miss Zhong, now my boss. This time, she came because she's interested in the 'Forget River'. "
Uncle Jin nodded, but he was not very enthusiastic, and just said indifferently, "Oh, it's not a big deal to have one more, let's go in."
Ajay looked at Zhong Luoyue, and then put his hand on Uncle Jin's shoulder, and said while walking, "Uncle Jin, before we start, I want to see Master."
Uncle Jin said, "You'll see when the time comes. Your master said that he won't see anyone now. I don't know where he is now. "
"I won't see him?"
Uncle Jin said helplessly, "I can't see him either!"
Ajay shrugged, and said helplessly, "Well … By the way, Uncle Jin, I want to ask you something. Why did Master suddenly bring it over? Or is he going to open it and drink it? "
"He said, the time is up."
"Time is up? What time? "Ajay asked.
Uncle Jin said casually, "How would I know? If I knew, then I would be the God of Gamblers. "
Ajay smiled and didn't say anything. He just glanced at the position of the ring finger on Uncle Jin's left hand — It was a fake finger.
The real one had been cut off long ago.
"Well, I won't entertain you. I have to get busy. You take your beautiful boss to walk around. The banquet will start at three o 'clock. It's in the wine cellar. Go there by yourself, OK? "
"Okay, go ahead." Ajay waved his hand.
Seeing Uncle Jin leave, Zhong Luoyue came to Ajay, and said indifferently, "Is this the Magic Gambling Wu City? It's said that he lost to Tu Shenyi and cut off one of his fingers. He also became Tu Shenyi's follower. It seems to be true. "
"He's just Uncle Jin. He won't gamble again in his life. Four Seasons doesn't lack people. Don't think about unnecessary things … "Ajay smiled," Come on, there's still some time. I'll show you around. "
It was a manor, but there were castle-like buildings in the manor, which wouldn't make people feel bored.
…
Luoqiu had seen castle-like buildings once, and he stayed there for a long time — that was when he went to Romania with You Ye to collect a family's debt.
The architectural style here was different from that of Romania.
When Song Ying's car came to the parking lot according to the instructions of the servants in the manor, there were already many luxury cars parked here.
There seemed to be quite a number of guests … If the bodyguards that these guests brought with them were included, the number would be even greater.
Luo Qiu saw several Middle Easterners in white robes, as well as the descendants of Spanish nobles in luxurious clothes … Song Ying was secretly introducing them to him one by one.
Although Luoqiu didn't ask … Although Song Ying had been very resistant to introducing so many people to Luoqiu, she couldn't bear to see Luoqiu lose face because of his ignorance at such a gathering of rich guests.
Although she didn't want to, she had to do it — Song Ying couldn't understand why she was in such a difficult situation, as if Luo Qiu had taken all the benefits.
Miss Ying of the Song Family had a good memory, so she naturally remembered a lot of information about powerful rich people.
Similarly, as the decision-maker of the Song Dynasty Group, the little princess of the Song Family naturally knew more people because she was backed by the Song Family, which had the power to contend with the regular army.
But in fact, it was rare to hear that the little princess of the Song Family was particularly close to a man — Many people were secretly guessing who the young man who accompanied Song Ying was and what his origin was. But they saw the extraordinary young man suddenly carry Song Ying's handbag, take a step back, and slowly follow her.
What? It turned out that he was just an attendant who carried the bag.
People started making all sorts of guesses about this young man with an extraordinary appearance. Soon, they lost interest in him and stopped paying attention to him.
It was to the extent that gradually, in their line of sight, this seemingly extraordinary young man seemed to have suddenly disappeared without a trace … Clearly, he had walked past them.
"Good for you, Luoqiu, no wonder you said you would carry my bag at the beginning …" Song Ying walked in front, facing the greetings of those people who she knew and didn't know. She always responded with a smile, but she was secretly muttering in her heart.
Did this guy know that she might become the center of attention, so he said he would carry her bag at the beginning?
Looking at Song Ying's small eyes, how could Gan Hong, who had followed Song Ying for a long time, not know what Song Ying was thinking at this time.
At this time, Gan Hong hurriedly whispered to Luoqiu, "Master Qiu, you have to be careful, Miss Ying is a bit of a vengeful person."
Luoqiu said generously, "This kind of vengeance is actually harmless. It's not a big grudge, and she won't remember it for a lifetime. Don't you think so? "
Gan Hong didn't speak, subconsciously avoiding Master Qiu's cold eyes, just lowered her head and silently followed behind Luoqiu.
From the entrance to the hall used to greet guests, they went through several checks.
It had to be said that Song Ying's initial consideration was very good. At least Gan Hong, who was wearing a formal dress, wasn't left outside the door, and those very strong bodyguards could only be forced to not enter.
At this time, a man wearing the manor's worker's uniform walked in front of Song Ying, Luoqiu, and the others. The man held a tray in his hands, and on the tray were three longan-sized crystal balls.
Vaguely, one could see that there was a number embedded in the crystal balls, and the numbers in the three crystal balls were different.
"What is this?" Song Ying picked up one of the crystal balls, looked at it, and saw the number "63" inside.
The man replied politely, "It's like this, my master will pick out a fated person at the banquet later. Only this fated person can drink the 'Forgotten River' wine with my master. "
Song Ying nodded, "That is to say, this is everyone's mark, right?"
"Yes." The young man smiled, and then sent the tray in front of Luoqiu and Gan Hong.
Song Ying didn't have the slightest interest in the 'Forgotten River' wine, after taking the crystal ball, she directly put it in her pocket. What she wanted this time, was only to be able to persuade Tu Shenyi.
"What kind of selection method is it?" Unexpectedly, Luoqiu started chatting with the waiter.
"I don't know about this." The waiter shook his head and said, "My master only ordered for every guest to get a crystal ball."
"Hurry up and get it done, don't waste time." Song Ying said to Luoqiu.
Luoqiu could only reach out to take the crystal ball on the tray, but unexpectedly, before he could do so, the crystal ball was already in someone's hand.
He only heard a sloppy voice, "I like this number, number 6, it's more auspicious, give it to me? I can use it as a gift. "
Unexpectedly, at this time, Gan Hong's hand shot out like lightning, slapping at the man's hand, directly sending the crystal ball flying.
"Don't you know first come, first served? This is my young master's. "Gan Hong snorted coldly, reaching out to grab the crystal ball that was sent flying.
"How can it be considered snatching if you don't get it?" The young man laughed lightly, suddenly shooting out his finger.
At this time, the coin between his fingers directly shot out, directly hitting the crystal ball that was beginning to fall, changing its trajectory, causing the crystal ball to bounce back to him, firmly grasping in the palm of his hand again.
Gan Hong suffered a hidden loss, and her face was full of anger.
The young man whistled, "So beautiful, you don't look good when you're angry."
"You!"
Just as Gan Hong was about to rush forward, someone grabbed her arm. She looked back and found that the person who grabbed her was surprisingly Master Qiu.
Luoqiu gently shook his head, looked at the young man, and said indifferently, "You can take it if you want, I'll take this one."
With that said, Luoqiu put away the remaining crystal ball on the tray, smiled slightly and said, "Actually, you're right, it's better for her to smile more. Also … the one you took is number 9. "
The young man was stunned, turned his hand, and looked at the crystal ball in his hand, his face slightly ugly, but he quickly revealed a bright smile, "That's really embarrassing … Haha, hello, Miss Song, long time no see."
The other party seemed to know Song Ying, Luoqiu looked over curiously, only to hear Song Ying say indifferently, "This person is called Ouyang Jie, Tu Shenyi's last disciple, the one who won the tournament in Las Vegas last year was him."
"Thank you Miss Song for remembering me." Ajay … Ouyang Jie nodded.
