The Green Bamboo Sect's visit this time had been planned for a long time. When they received the wedding invitation from the White Horse Gang, the Incense Masters had different opinions.
Some said to avoid the sharp edge, but Li Minda thought that this matter was important. After consulting with the Gang Leader, Xu Kaishan, he decided not to show weakness.
This time, they had to go, but they had to pay attention to how they went. The East Market was the White Horse Gang's territory. If they brought too many people, it would be hard to avoid being called a troublemaker. If they brought too few people, it would not be enough of a deterrent.
Tong Sha's big brother, Tong Chi, had arrived half a month ago. This time, he had come because of Xu Kaishan's invitation to help him make a Pulse Opening Powder.
After Xu Kaishan took it, it could remove his hidden injuries and give him a chance to attack Xiantian. The second reason was to avenge his brother.
Therefore, this time, Tong Chi came to introduce himself. Not only did he want revenge, he also wanted to win the entire Four Seas Gambling House.
Everyone in the hall whispered. Even the people who came to congratulate had squeezed in from the side hall. The entire gambling table was placed in the center.
Tong Chi sat there alone and looked at Wang Gui with a smile that was not a smile, as if he had a card up his sleeve.
Wang Gui did not get angry. He gave Wang Er an order and saw Wang Er go to the gambling table first.
This was Wang Gui and Ren Kui. Yi Tian had discussed it and sent people to test the other side's moves.
Yi Tian and Ren Kui observed from the back hall and found the other side's flaws. They said that this was Lao Cheng's scheme. Yi Tian heard the strange voice in the back hall and knew that this person was the one in Li Minda's room. Since he dared to boast like this, he must have a plan.
While Yi Tian was thinking about the situation in Li Minda's room that day, the gambling table had already opened.
Tong Chi still chose to gamble on the dice. One shook and one guessed. It looked very fair.
Wang Er was sent up with a helpless expression. Who told him to be the third in command of the dice in the Four Seas Gambling House? Since Yi Tian came, his position was slowly replaced by Yi Tian.
Now that he was being used as a whetstone, Wang Er was unwilling. He clenched his teeth, and the Soft Hands' Fu Formula and Zhuan Formula were activated at the same time. He shook the dice cup with a 'guang guang guang' sound. Finally, he firmly placed the dice cup back on the gambling table.
Tong Chi sat in front of the table and stared at the dice cup for a while. Then, he placed all ten thousand taels of silver on Counting Nine.
The people of the Green Bamboo School behind him sighed. It was common to play dice and bet on big or small, but they had never seen anyone bet so confidently on the numbers.
According to the casino's rules, the odds were 1: 1. If the number was guessed correctly, the odds were 5: 1. If the number was correct, the odds were 10: 1.
Tong Chi's move shocked the entire audience. They had never seen anyone play like this. The ten thousand taels bet was as casual as dumplings.
Wang Er's heart was also stuffy. He didn't expect that the opposite person didn't play according to common sense. He didn't bet on the big or small but bet on the points. If he won, it would be fifty thousand taels.
Under everyone's urging, Wang Er had no choice but to open the dice cup. From Li Minda's mouth came a 'good' sound. Everyone saw the three dice in the dice cup were arranged one by three by five.
Wang Gui indicated that he should pay all the money to Tong Chi. Then, he told Wang Er to roll better. Wang Er's head was also covered in cold sweat.
Standing in the inner hall, Ren Kui and Yi Tian were also analyzing the gambling game. Yi Tian recalled Tong Chi's movements after he sat down. It was very natural, without any flaws. It didn't seem like he was cheating.
This Tong Chi didn't even pay attention to the dice. He only stared at the dice cup for a while when it was put down.
The gambling game continued. Wang Er's second roll wasn't as smooth as the first. Yi Tian saw Tong Chi's indifferent appearance in the inner hall.
After Wang Er finished rolling, he stared at the dice cup for a while. Then, he placed all fifty thousand taels of silver on Counting Six. Everyone exclaimed in surprise.
After Tong Chi's performance in the first round, the surrounding audience didn't treat him as a fool. This time, if he were to bet correctly, it would be two hundred and fifty thousand taels.
The three leaders of the White Horse Gang weren't as calm as before. Especially Wang Gui, who was distressed about the money.
If he were to guess correctly again, the Four Seas Gambling House's bonus for this month would be gone.
The people of the Azure Bamboo Sect shouted to open the dice cup. Tong Sha seemed to be working even harder. It was as if he was the one who was sitting on the gambling table and winning money.
After opening the dice cup again, Wang Er looked at the dice cup and trembled as he said, "One, two, three, Counting Six Small."
Yi Tian heard the people of the Azure Bamboo Sect cheer again and again from the inner hall. He knew that things weren't going well. Looking at the three leaders' deep and frightening expressions, Wang Gui's gaze seemed to be piercing through Tong Chi.
Wang Er was already on the verge of collapse. Yi Tian saw that at least his confidence had been destroyed.
It seemed that he couldn't count on him. The White Horse Gang only had Ren Kui and himself left. The two people looked at each other and pointed to their eyes, indicating that the problem was there. Although he wasn't completely sure, Yi Tian still wanted to go up and give it a try.
Wang Gui ordered the servants to help Wang Er down. If he continued to stay up there, he would lose face and be conspicuous. After Wang Er left the stage and sat down, he felt a burst of warmth in his pants. It turned out that he had lost control of his bladder. Wang Gui hurriedly called for people to drag him to the inner hall.
Yi Tian, who was standing in the inner hall, rubbed his hands and was eager to go. Ren Kui hurriedly motioned for him to come over. The two people strode into the inner hall.
After the battle just now, the Azure Bamboo Sect's morale was like a rainbow. Everyone urged them to quickly start. Ren Kui walked to the front of the stage and nodded towards Wang Gui. He then cupped his hands towards Tong Chi and made a posture of asking for advice.
Tong Chi glanced at him and didn't return the greeting. He then said in a strange tone, "Are you guys still gambling or not? If you're not gambling, then change people."
Ren Kui didn't get angry. He turned his head and hinted at Yi Tian to observe carefully before shaking the dice cup.
This time, Ren Kui's method of shaking the dice cup was very simple. He only held the dice cup with both hands and shook it three times. He then put it down and waited for the bet.
Tong Chi was still the same as before. He sat in front of the gambling table and stared at the dice cup for a while before decisively placing all his silver notes on fifteen points.
Yi Tian was startled. This Tong Chi was really crazy. However, when he looked at the dice cup, his eyes seemed to flash with a green light. Could it be that his trump card was able to see through the dice cup? This wasn't a mortal's martial art. Could it be an immortal's technique?
Thinking of this, Yi Tian felt a burst of passion. After coming to the county for so long, today was the first time he found traces of an immortal.
But how could a mortal fight an immortal? Yi Tian began to panic. However, he was even more excited. Since he saw it, he would go and investigate it.
On the gambling table, Ren Kui casually opened the dice cup and called out the numbers. Four, five, six, fifteen points were big.
This time, the entire hall exploded. The bystanders all looked at Tong Chi on the gambling table with eyes of worship.
The three leaders of the White Horse Gang looked at each other with pale faces. Today, they didn't kick an iron plate. It was the iron plate that came knocking on their door. They had already kicked a few pairs of shoes.
They could still afford to pay more than a million taels, but what about the next round? Did they really have to give the Four Seas Gambling House to the Azure Bamboo Sect?
The servant brought a chest of banknotes and handed it over to Tong Chi. He saw that Tong Chi didn't even count it. He just casually put it down and sat there leisurely drinking tea.
Tong Sha walked over and whispered a few words into Tong Chi's ear. Tong Chi's gaze swept over Yi Tian's body with a rare look of praise before he laughed coldly.
Ren Kui walked down from the gambling table. He wiped the sweat from his head and helplessly smiled at Yi Tian. He walked to Yi Tian's side and indicated that Yi Tian would go next.
Seeing Wang Gui make a throat-slitting gesture, Yi Tian knew that this time, it had fallen on him. Sooner or later, he would have to pay for what he did. Today, there was no way for him to have a good ending.
He simply didn't think about anything else and walked up to the gambling table. Just as he was about to open the bet, he suddenly heard Tong Chi's voice.
"Clan Leader Wang, we are not in the mood to gamble like this. If I win this round, your clan will only be able to give up the Four Seas Gambling House. It would be better to raise the stakes. I will bet on this little brother's two hands and two legs."
Yi Tian's heart turned cold when he heard this. It must be that bastard Tong Sha who wanted to take revenge for the previous arrow. That was why he came up with this idea.
Thinking that if he lost, his four limbs would be chopped off and he would become a human stick, Yi Tian felt a chill run down his spine.
White Horse Gang's Wang Gui was not a kind person. Normally, he would kill many people. When his heart became ruthless, others would be afraid. He slightly nodded, indicating that he agreed to this bet.
In Wang Gui's heart, the Four Seas Gambling House was much more important than Yi Tian. This increase in stakes did not matter. In any case, if Yi Tian lost, he would not be able to see the sun tomorrow.
Yi Tian felt as if he had been placed as an inconspicuous wager in this round.
Since he was young, Yi Tian had always bullied others. That time, he had been ridden on the head by others. This time, he threw caution to the wind. Since he was going to play, he might as well play big. On the surface, he put on a disdainful smile and said, "I crippled one of Tong Sha's hands, and you want to bet on my four limbs. Isn't that a bit too much? How about this, I will raise the stakes. If I lose, I will dig out my heart and lungs, and if you lose, you will have to compensate me with one of your hands."
Tong Chi heard this and laughed strangely a few times. He gladly agreed. The people of the Green Bamboo Sect also took advantage of this to make a ruckus. They greatly belittled Yi Tian for being ignorant.
Yi Tian looked around. Other than Ren Kui, who had a difficult expression, the other members of the White Horse Gang responded indifferently. Yi Tian thought about it. In the three or four years that he had been in the White Horse Gang, only Ren Kui still had some feelings for him.
The others only saw him as a chess piece. When they could use him, they would raise him up high. Once he lost his use, they would certainly abandon him.
Thinking too much was useless. Yi Tian rolled up his sleeves. Whether he was a dragon or a worm, he had to come out for a walk. If he did not guess incorrectly, Tong Chi's trump card was to see through the dice cup. Then dealing with him should not be difficult. Soon after, Yi Tian looked around. Looking at each and every one of their ugly faces, he made a mental note to not let a single one of them off when it was his turn to stand in the limelight.
The dice cup on the gambling table was open. Inside, three dice were quietly placed. Yi Tian walked forward and closed the lid of the cup with his right hand.
Then, he lifted the dice cup with both hands and did a dragonfish flip. He spun it twice in the air.
His left hand caught the base and used the Zhuan Formula. The entire dice cup in his hand continuously spun.
Suddenly, his left hand forcefully threw the dice cup to his right hand. After his right hand caught it, he used the Cotton Hand Suppressing Formula. With a flip, he placed the dice cup on the gambling table.
This might be Yi Tian's last time shaking the dice. The people of the Green Bamboo Sect were boasting to the side. From time to time, their mouths would say something to please the crowd.
Behind him, the members of the White Horse Gang held their breaths. The three leaders were even more restless.
The teacup in Wang Gui's hand was crushed by his palm. The fragments pierced his palm, but he did not feel any pain.
At this moment, Yi Tian became the focus of attention. Now, no one cared about the previous gambling game. This game was the most fatal.
Tong Chi's face was also dignified. He sat with his hands crossed in front of his chest. His eyes stared at the dice cup for a while, but he was unable to make a decision. The people behind him were also puzzled.
In the previous three games, Tong Chi had made a move. After switching to Yi Tian, it was unexpected. Originally, they were waiting to chop off his hands and feet.
On the opposite side of the gambling table, Yi Tian's face was relaxed. Everyone in the hall held their breaths. They wanted to see where Tong Chi would place his bet. Only Yi Tian was there, whistling uninterestedly. It was as if this game had nothing to do with him.
About half an incense stick's worth of time passed. Tong Chi still had not placed his bet. Not only did he change his previous confidence, but he also hesitated on the two words' big 'and' small '.
Wang Gui, the old fox, saw Yi Tian's relaxed face. He knew that this game would take a turn for the better. His tightly knitted eyebrows gradually relaxed.
After drinking two cups of tea, he said, "Although you are a guest from afar, our White Horse Gang has never treated you unfairly. I don't know if Mister Tong should hurry up and place his bet. If you miss the time, it would be inappropriate to chop off your hands." After he finished speaking, he laughed.
Yi Tian stood on the gambling table and urged Tong Chi to hurry up and place his bet. The atmosphere was extremely awkward.
The faces of the Green Bamboo Sect's people were ashen. Their previous arrogance was gone. Each and every one of them was silent. Finally, Tong Sha stepped forward and motioned for Tong Chi to hurry up and place his bet.
"Your gang really has many capable people. Today's game can be considered a draw. Little brother, take the money and leave." After Tong Chi finished speaking, his face flushed red. He suddenly stood up and turned to leave.
No one had thought that the final outcome would be like this. Even the Green Bamboo Sect's people were surprised. They saw Li Minda call out and the Green Bamboo Sect's people followed him out. They no longer had the arrogance they had when they first arrived.
Before Tong Sha left, he did not forget to pick up the banknotes on the table and put them in the banknote box. He held the box with both hands and followed the crowd out of the Four Seas Gambling House. This caused Wang Gui to blow his beard and glare at him. He gritted his teeth and snorted.
Yi Tian realized that his clothes were soaked. Fortunately, he had won this game against Tong Chi.
Ren Kui ran forward with a face full of smiles. He opened the dice cup and saw the second die stacked on top of the first. The third die was right in front of the first die. He could only see that there was a three and a four. The one hidden behind was either a six or a one.
This time, Tong Chi did not have a choice. If he chose one out of two, he still had a 50% chance of losing. This meant that he and Yi Tian both had a 50% chance of winning.
In such a game, it was no wonder that Tong Chi was unwilling to place his bet. Even if he bet big or small, the odds of winning were 50%. Even if he saw through the dice cup, it was useless.
