Chapter 451 Extraordinary Gambling
After a night of repairs, Zhuge Ming’s leg injury was slightly better, but the wound was soaked in water for too long, and he was not sure whether it would be infected. To be on the safe side, he had to find a pharmacy to get some serious gold sore medicine.
The two of them didn’t know where they had drifted to anyway, so they decided to find a village to ask. However, the two were lucky today, and there was a small town at the foot of the mountain.
The town is not as lively as the capital, but there are not too many things that should be there, such as medicinal herbs, inns, restaurants, ready-to-wear shops…
Zhuge Ming watched for a while, and was satisfied, but he didn’t know how to get the money.
“What are you looking at?” Shangguan Ruo pursed his lips when he saw Zhuge Ming looking left and right, as if he was very novel, “It’s very small, not very clean, and it doesn’t look good at all!”
Zhuge Ming glanced at her sideways: “It would be good if you didn’t starve to death on the street. This is not a wild country. I can’t hunt. If I go back to the woods, I won’t have the strength anymore.”
If Shangguan thought about it, it was really such a situation, and he couldn’t help but immediately sank his face: “Ah? This… how can I do this? I… I’ll be hungry!”
Shangguan Meier is more afraid of starvation than living on the streets.
Zhuge Ming thought not only about food and clothing, but more about whether they could find a safe place to stay. He believed that those people did not find the bodies of him and Shangguanruo in the river, so they would definitely expand the search area. Now that he was injured, it would be best not to confront them head-on.
“Zhuge Ming!” Shangguan Ruo pulled his sleeve, “Look over there…”
Zhuge Ming interrupted her: “Don’t call me by my name, be careful not to be heard by the assassins.”
“Ah? The assassin is chasing after him?” Shangguan Ruo was agitated and hugged Zhuge Ming’s arm.
’s soft chest pressed against his arm, Zhuge Ming felt a refreshing warmth, he was stunned, he coughed lightly: “I don’t know if we’re chasing, but we have to be careful.”
“Oh.” Shangguan Ruo thief glanced around, “Then what do I call you? Ming Ming? Ming’er? Brother Ming? Xianggong~”
”…” Zhuge Ming, “You should call me Zhuge Ming.”
Lest you get electrocuted before being chased.
The two walked around the main road. Several times, if Shangguan wanted to rush up to find someone to ask where it was, they were stopped by Zhuge Ming.
After half an hour, Zhuge Ming clarified the current location from the conversation of passers-by – Yaozhen, a small town thirty miles south of the capital. The whole town is mainly made of porcelain, and is known as “Little Jingdezhen”. Because of the prosperous business, there are quite a lot of non-local people here. For them, it is easiest to avoid the government’s investigation in places with a large number of non-local people.
“Government? Why do we avoid the government’s investigation? Yes, yes, we should go to the local officials! You are the prince, and I am the lady of the Shangguan family. If you reveal your identity, they will **** us back to Beijing!” Shangguan If said proudly.
Zhuge Ming was embarrassed to tell her that anyone who dares to hunt down a prince of a country is not something the government can afford to provoke. Nine times out of ten, it is Queen Xiao Huiren.
“Go and report to the officer yourself, don’t say you’ve seen me.”
He decisively brushed away Shangguan Ruo’s hand that hugged his arm.
Shangguan Ruo pestered him again and smiled: “Don’t, I want to follow you, you don’t like looking for the government, I will listen to you.”
Zhuge Ming looked at the place where she was holding him, his lips moved, and he finally swallowed what he wanted to say.
The two walked from morning to noon, and Shangguan Ruo couldn’t hold it any longer: “Zhuge Ming, I want to eat steamed buns.”
The buns are not expensive, only a penny each. The problem is that if Shangguan never takes money with him when he goes out, and his purse falls into the river again, as for the things that he can take on his body, Zhuge Ming does not dare to rashly move it, but it is not because he is distressed. But for fear of being found out. When a person is desperate, the easiest way to go is to **** the road.
Zhuge Ming carefully considered and finally chose the casino.
Shangguan Ruo was too beautiful, he covered Shangguan Ruo’s face with a veil, himself, he wiped a bit of the wall on his cheeks, and added torn clothes. At first glance, he looked like a poor son and brother. .
In order to avoid attracting attention, he specially chose a high-end casino, which is not a place for the royal family to stand.
Shangguan was almost vomited by the smell of sweat on their bodies. The detour was too narrow, and people bumped into her shoulders from time to time, which made her feel very uncomfortable.
Zhuge Ming took her into his arms and blocked the passing gamblers with his arms for her.
Her eyelashes trembled slightly and her face turned red.
Zhuge Ming walked around the casino and stood at a dice board. He had no capital, so naturally he couldn’t bet, so he patted the brawny man beside him who had already lost a lot of money and said, “I will help you win, and you will share. How am I doing?”
The strong man looked back at him and snorted when he saw that he was young.
The dealer finished shaking and put the dice cup on the table: “Come on, come on! Leave your bets!”
The strong man took out a small piece of silver and hesitated between big and small.
Zhuge Ming said softly, “Great.”
The strong man frowned and gave him a look of disbelief.
Zhuge Ming said again: “If it is wrong, I will pay her to you.”
said, and pushed Shangguan Ruo in front of him.
Shangguan Ruo was so angry that he almost killed him with a knife!
Zhuge Ming squeezed the soft flesh on her waist and motioned her to keep quiet.
The strong man looked at Zhuge Ming again and again, and said that he was really lucky. What he buys and loses, it is better to listen to Zhuge Ming as a dead horse and a living horse doctor.
The dealer took off the lid: “Fifty sixty one, big!”
The strong man lost all morning, and his head was covered with smoke. Now he suddenly won, he was at a loss!
Zhuge Ming hooked his lips, swept the broken silver to him for him, and took a small one from it. The strong man looked at him, and he smiled impurely: “I deserve it.”
The strong man frowned, but said nothing.
In the next game, Zhuge Ming said again: “It’s still big.”
Strongman bet big and won again.
Zhuge Ming took the initiative to take a silver naked child again, this time, it was bigger than the previous one.
helped the strong man to win ten in a row, and Zhuge Ming was divided into one hundred taels of silver, and the strong man was obviously about to make a thousand taels.
The strong man looked at him again, expecting him to give instructions again.
Zhuge Ming smiled: “This time I want to play by myself, you can do whatever you want.”
After , he pressed eighty taels of silver on the table.
The strong man saw that he bet 80% of his net worth, and he pushed all the money he won without hesitation.
They buy “small.”
The dealer opens: “Big!”
The strong man kicked over the stool with one kick!
then turned around and glared at Zhuge Ming fiercely: “Stinky boy, are you kidding me?”
Zhuge Ming shrugged innocently: “No, big brother, I lost myself. I finally made a hundred and lost ninety all at once. I am also miserable! And I tell you, let you do whatever you want. You can be with me, or you can be with someone else.”
The 900 taels that the strong man earned, plus his own 5 taels, were all of a sudden lost. This feeling of falling from heaven to **** is really bad enough!
“You’ve left Lao Tzu penniless! What do you say?” The strong man looked at it, and was about to vent his anger on Zhuge Ming.
Zhuge Ming smiled slightly: “Well, brother, I remember that your initial capital was 5 taels. Here I have 20 taels left. I will give you 10 taels as the capital. How about you make a comeback with it? I just told the truth. Yes, I can feel the size when I stand behind you. If I am not with you, I will not be effective. To put it bluntly, it is actually your own luck. You can turn five taels into one thousand taels. Two, not to mention!”
Originally had nothing, even the capital of the bet, but suddenly got ten taels. At this time, the strong man’s mood can be said to have climbed back to the world from hell, and those gratuitous compliments have been a little bit. effect.
“My little brother has something to do at home, so let’s go ahead.” After Zhuge Ming gave the ten taels of silver to the strong man, he took Shangguan Ruo out of the casino.
Behind them, several sturdy thugs slowly returned to the back room.
Shangguan Ruo angrily shook off his hand: “What are you doing? Did you do it on purpose? After winning so many times, the last time… just… I almost lost everything!”
One hundred taels! You can buy a lot of food!
Zhuge Ming tapped her head: “Fool! If I don’t lose the big head, we won’t be able to leave the casino.”
He helped the brawny man win a thousand taels, and took a hundred taels for himself, which is an astronomical figure in this small casino. The people in the casino decided to treat them as a group, not to mention the strong man, even he and Shangguan Ruo could not escape a beating.
In the last round, to put it bluntly, he deliberately lured the strong man to lose all his fortune. Only when the money flows back to the casino can he leave safely.
And he finally gave half of the twenty-two points to the strong man in front of everyone, on the one hand to calm the strong man’s anger, and on the other hand to reassure the casino. After losing 1,000 taels of silver in the casino, he managed to recover 999 taels (the 12 taels of the strong man, he was guaranteed to lose everything), the 10 taels he took away were hardly worth mentioning.
Shangguan, after listening to his explanation, reluctantly said “oh”, although he was unwilling, but compared with his name, earning a little less was not so unbearable.
But soon, Shangguan Ruo thought of another thing: “Zhuge Ming! What did you mean? You bet on me! What if you lose? I’m the old man!”
The strong man was about fifty years old, so it was still early to call him an old man.
Zhuge Ming clicked his tongue: “He’s a eunuch, don’t worry, he’s not close to women.”
Shangguan Ruoyi choked: “How do you know?”
Zhuge Ming said: “He has the fragrance of Muliuhua on his body. In the palace, the eunuchs and palace maids have a very limited number of baths. In order to cover up the body odor, the palace maids usually smoke sandalwood, while the eunuchs use Muliuhua fragrance. Mu Liuhua has a refreshing effect, and it is easy to become dependent in the long run, so many eunuchs who have left the palace still maintain the habit of smoking Mu Liuhua.”
“Oh.” Shangguan pursed his lips and muttered, “Why do you know everything?”
Zhuge Ming took her hand: “Aren’t you hungry? What do you want to eat?”
“Roast goose, spiced beef noodles.”
