Chapter 144.
Within the gambling house, the rotten gambler had already gambled his eyes out.
Losing one hand was acceptable to him, and two or three was barely acceptable.
However, so far, the two had gambled a total of seven times before and after.
He hadn’t won a single hand.
Jiang Ran had been cheating since the first game, but after watching the game seven times, he couldn’t find a single trace.
Rotten gambler gambled all his life, the means on the gambling table, have seen not a thousand, there are also eight hundred.
But have never seen Jiang Ran like this.
So he is not convinced …… gambler’s temperament together, directly will own all bet.
Jiang Ran smiled at his words:
“Is this true?”
The rotten gambler immediately nodded: “Words on the gambling table have to count.”
“A bit interesting, then it’s a deal.”
Jiang Ran smiled, then heard Ruan Yuqing whisper:
“This person is as addicted to gambling as his life, staying by your side, I’m afraid it’s not a good thing.”
“It’s fine, I have my own way.”
Jiang Ran smiled and was about to continue, but suddenly heard a clamor behind him.
“Prince Yu?”
“Why are you here, Prince Yu?”
Jiang Ran and the others turned around to look, and saw a man dressed in red and pink clothes, holding a woman’s hair, full of masculinity, pacing into the Soul Hooking Gambling House.
Between his looks, he had both authority and an indescribable temperament.
All those who saw him were involuntarily attracted to him, their hearts thumping and throbbing.
Ruan Yuqing’s brows slightly knitted, there was a hidden flowing sword intent crossing in the light of her eyes, and the few palpitations that were born in her heart were instantly chopped cleanly by her.
On the contrary, Luo Qingyi stared blankly at this Prince Yu, as if she had seen some kind of supreme beauty, and was looking at the color and soul.
As for Liu Xiaoe …… from the beginning, she did not raise her head, but was not affected.
At the same time, these ‘evil spirits’ within the gambling house were also fascinated by this person.
It seemed like they all wanted to rush to him and do whatever they wanted.
Jiang Ran raised an eyebrow and flexed his fingers to nod on Luo Qingyi’s forehead.
Only then did Luo Qingyi come back to his senses, and sweat broke out on his head:
“What …… is going on here?”
“Just a demon.”
Jiang Ran spoke indifferently, but in his heart, he was a little amazed at the various tactics of this Demon King Palace.
He couldn’t help but begin to suspect that this place might not have anything to do with the Heartless Ghost Mansion, but rather might have some connection with the Demon Sect.
First, there was the Heartless Ghost Wall above the Heartless Order, and then there was the treacherous charm of this Jade King.
Although Jiang Ran couldn’t feel anything about the latter.
But the people around him were all able to perceive …… then the power was visible.
“Slutty fox, what are you doing in the old man’s gambling house?”
The rotten gambler’s question rang out at this time, and the movement full of internal force exploded in everyone’s ears in an instant.
Jiang Ran gently rubbed his ears and looked back at Rotten Gambler with some complaints.
Speaking so loudly and not saying hello in advance.
However, he was able to hear the anger and scorn in the Ghost of Gambling’s voice.
As these ‘evil ghosts’ in the arena fell with his voice, each of them regained their senses.
Immediately, they all lowered their heads, not daring to look again.
It was then that the Jade Prince looked around the scene, followed by a slight smile.
In the next moment, he wrenched his head with both hands and twisted it fiercely.
Just heard a click.
The whole head was twisted face back, blood instantly flowed out from the seven orifices, the next moment, the dead body fell to the ground.
This scene is really weird and bizarre to the extreme.
Not to mention the people, the ghosts must be startled.
“What …… is going on here?”
Luo Qingyi, who heard the commotion, subconsciously looked up, only to see that the Jade Prince, who was still standing there just now, causing the crowd to be amazed and horrified, was already dead on the spot.
Ruan Yuqing frowned slightly and turned to look at Jiang Ran.
He saw Jiang Ran squinting his eyes, his eyes not knowing what thoughts were spinning in them.
“What are you thinking about?”
Ruan Yuqing softly opened her mouth to inquire.
Jiang Ran smiled and didn’t answer Ruan Yuqing’s question, instead, he turned back to the Rotten Gambler and said with a smile:
“This is somewhat interesting.
“I didn’t expect you guys to get addicted to pretending to be gods and goddesses and even perform ghost-changing stunts in front of people.”
“……”
The Rotten Gambling Ghost’s face was blue, and his face was also all colored with uncertainty, but in the end, he waved his hand:
“Drag it out, don’t dirty the place.”
“Yes.”
Immediately, there were ‘gambling ghosts’ who came forward and dragged away the corpse of this Jade Prince.
It was only at this point that the rotten gambling ghost said:
“Come on, let’s continue!”
Jiang Ran smiled, this was the nature of a gambling ghost, even if something heavenly happened, it couldn’t affect whether he won or lost this game:
“Good, who will go first?”
“This time, let’s change the betting method.”
The rotten gambler sneered:
“Previously, what you and I bet on was that whoever had the largest number of points won.
“This time we’ll change it, we’ll compare whose points are smaller.
“First hand wins in a tie, I’ll be the first hand.”
“That’s fine.”
Jiang Ran nodded, “It’s meant to be the guest follows the host.”
The rotten gambler couldn’t help but take a deep breath when he saw Jiang Ran’s winning demeanor.
The dice were still the same dice, and the shaker hadn’t changed at all.
The Rotten Gambler casually copied the dice into the cup, and a clattering sound resounded within the shaker.
This time, he no longer left the table, the shaker was almost dancing out of the shadows in his hands.
Although Ruan Yuqing’s mind was still mostly focused on the Jade Prince who had just died strangely, he was also subconsciously thinking about this scene in front of him.
The reason why the Rotten Gambler changed his betting method.
In fact, the reason is also very simple, Jiang Ran relying on the cheating means of stealing the sky, every time took away the dice in the hands of the rotten gambler.
So much so that he opened the cup every time and lost every time.
Now, since the competition is small, if Jiang Ran steals his dice again, then he will definitely lose.
But if you want to ensure that you can win, the rotten gambler will have to make sure that the number of points in the smallest, and have to ensure that even if Jiang Ran throws out the smallest, it can only be a tie with him.
Once it was a tie, it was a win for the rotten gambler.
“So, he’s trying to cheat and steal the dice.”
Ruan Yuqing considered in his mind, the only way to ensure that the rotten gambler would inevitably have the smallest number of points.
If Jiang Ran wanted to win, he would inevitably have to stop him from doing so.
There was also a difference between this and earlier, when Jiang Ran had stolen the heavens and changed the sun, it was all just a trick of his own.
The timing was often decided by Jiang Ran.
Now the timing was in the hands of the rotten gambler, and the bigger Jiang Ran’s moves were, the more likely it was that the rotten gambler would notice.
Thus catching traces of Jiang Ran’s cheating.
Thinking of this, Ruan Yuqing couldn’t help but look at Jiang Ran.
The result was that this man was calm and relaxed, and he hadn’t given this game in front of him a second thought.
Ruan Yuqing wanted to remind him, but worried about disturbing him, after all, this gambling table is unusual, other things Ruan Yuqing knows a lot, but this gambling table stuff, she is still the first time to contact.
What she has learned is what Jiang Ran told her today.
As things stand, she can only comfort herself with the thought that Jiang Ran will find a way, and there is no need for anyone to worry.
The rotten gambler shook the cup for a long time this time.
Only after a while did he ruthlessly snap the shaker onto the gambling table.
What’s more, a strong aura spread in all directions the moment the shaker landed on the table.
It led Jiang Ran to gently wave his hand:
“If you make a little more effort, this gambling table will let you smash it.”
“So what?”
The rotten gambler sneered:
“I’m going to open it.”
“Open it.”
Jiang Ran probed: “I’m still missing a horse shit sweeper here, just waiting for you.”
“……”
Rotten Gambler wanted to put in a few harsh words, however having lost in one breath, he really didn’t have the face to put in harsh words.
However, after feeling the dice in his palm, which he had taken by stealing the sky, his heart relaxed a few points.
This hand, will definitely win!
On top of the table, there was only one dice left, and now it was in his palm, not in the shaker.
Where else could Jiang Ran win?
But even so, when he opened the cup, he was still careful.
Not only was he staring at the shaker, he was also staring at Jiang Ran.
Finally, he slowly raised the shaker.
The next moment, a six-point facing dice appeared in front of everyone.
“……”
The Rotten Gambler looked at this dice and forgot to breathe for a long time.
He looked at the dice in his hand, then looked at the dice under the shaker on the gambling table, and took a deep breath:
“This is impossible ……”
“It’s nothing impossible.”
Jiang Ran smiled:
“You think you can take the initiative just because it’s smaller than small?
“The timing of my strikes depends on your face?”
“…… Isn’t it?”
Ruan Yuqing couldn’t help but ask, the words Jiang Ran asked could all be what she was thinking just now.
“Of course not.”
Jiang Ran shook his head:
“These things are all based on the fact that there’s only one dice on this gambling table.
“But don’t forget, this is a gambling house ……
“There are gambling tables all around here, which table doesn’t have dice?
“Take a random one and throw it over, you’re delusional if you want to throw the smallest one.”
A six-sided dice, there could never be anything bigger than a six.
The rotten gambler looked at the dice, and finally silently placed the other dice in his palm next to it, sighing softly:
“I lost, willing to gamble, from today onwards, you are my master.”
As he spoke, he bet behind the table and came around, kneeling in front of Jiang Ran:
“Rotten gambler, pay respects to my master!”
At the end, he looked up at Jiang Ran:
“Master, my subordinate would like to make another bet with you, how about betting on my future?”
Ruan Yuqing almost gave an exasperated laugh at his words:
“You want a face or not?”
Luo Qingyi also snorted coldly:
“Mistress Ruan is joking, would someone like them want a face?”
Jiang Ran waved his hand, telling them to cut it out, and then said to this lousy gambler:
“You want to bet with me on your freedom?”
“Yes!”
The rotten gambling ghost nodded:
“Since I lost to my master, I am naturally my master’s slave, but I am not willing to be like that after all.
“So, I bet with my master again, and if I win, I can get back the life I exported away.”
“It’s also kind of interesting, just that your ability is not good nowadays, even if you gamble ten or a hundred more times, it’s just a waste of time.
“Let’s do it this way, let’s tentatively set it for a month from now.”
Jiang Ran laughed:
“After a month, if you’re confident that you can win against me, feel free to come and find me to bet with you.
“The only problem is, what should you do if you lose?”
“This ……”
The Rotten Gambler pondered slightly, but for a moment he couldn’t think of anything he could bet on.
Nowadays, he had long been left with nothing.
In addition to this Hook Soul Gambling House …… but it was just that this Hook Soul Gambling House Jiang Ran hadn’t put it in his eyes.
I’m afraid that the gold, silver and jewels are even less attractive to Jiang Ran.
Thinking about this, the rotten gambler felt a bit embarrassed.
“So ah, you also think about what to bet with me.”
Jiang Ran let out a light laugh and suddenly looked at Liu Xiaoe:
“Is Miss Liu still well?”
“I …… am fine.”
Liu Xiaoe gently nodded: “We, can we go now?”
“Of course.”
Jiang Ran smiled, “I haven’t touched this gambling table for a long time, and this time is also considered to be a revisit. A small gamble is good for the heart, but you can’t get greedy …… Let’s go.”
After he finished speaking, he turned around and left.
Ruan Yuqing and Luo Qingyi immediately followed behind.
The Rotten Gambler and those six dice freaks, as well as Liu Xiao’e also hurriedly followed.
In the blink of an eye, several people departed from the gambling house.
The remaining ‘evil ghosts’ looked at each other in dismay.
The owner of the gambling house had been won away, now what should they do?
Continue gambling? Who would host?
Not gamble? Why go?
Jiang Ran obviously didn’t give them the intention to consider, strutting out of the Soul Hook Gambling Center.
He was about to follow the direction that Liu Xiaoe had mentioned earlier to find Li Tianxin again.
Just then, he saw that outside the gambling house, there was a person lying down.
However, it was not the Jade Prince who had been dragged out.
Instead, it was Li Tianxin who had a waxy face, was dressed in black, and had a knife clutched in his hand.
Jiang Ran glanced at him and sighed:
“Young people are good, they can fall asleep wherever they go.”
“……”
Ruan Yuqing couldn’t help but give Jiang Ran a blank look:
“Still talking sarcasm …… What’s wrong with Young Warrior Li?”
Jiang Ran smiled faintly and came to Knight Tianxin’s front, casually probing, and immediately his face changed:
“Not good!”
“Huh?”
Ruan Yuqing and Luo Qingyi were startled at the same time.
Jiang Ran sighed quietly:
“The pulse is like a rolling pearl, this is …… a happy ah.”
Ruan Yuqing immediately spat: “Nonsense, Young Warrior Li is a man, how could he have a happy pulse?”
Although Luo Qingyi was puzzled, she was greatly shocked.
Unbelievably, she looked at Li Tianxin:
“Could it be that this hellish place can really call a man pregnant?”
“Then who knows?”
Jiang Ran looked within the Soul Hooking Gambling House and then at Li Tianxin, his eyebrows slightly raised.
The Rotten Gambler, on the other hand, had his jaw dropped:
“It’s true that the Ghost King’s Palace is not an unusual place, but even if Lord Ghost King has a thousand magical means, it’s never possible to tell a man to get pregnant!”
Jiang Ran sniffed:
“I’m just talking nonsense, why are you guys still taking it seriously?”
After saying this, he reached out and pulled Li Tianxin up, pressed one hand on his back, and his internal energy rolled in.
A moment later, Li Tianxin’s body shook, slowly exhaled a mouthful of turbid air, slowly opened his eyes.
In the next moment, a look of fear suddenly appeared in his eyes:
“Don’t, don’t come over!”
“You met a female lecher?”
Jiang Ran’s voice hit behind him.
Li Tianxin froze at his words, fixed his eyes to take a closer look at his surroundings, and then looked at Ruan Yuqing and Luo Qingyi in front of him:
“It’s you guys ah ……”
“Who else could it be?”
Jiang Ran let out a faint smile:
“Tell me, what’s going on with you?
“Were you molested by a female lecher?”
“…… Not a lecherous thief.”
Li Tianxin’s face was full of shock:
“Yes, it’s a hungry man with a full belly.
“He said …… he said he wanted to eat my heart and liver, and he also took a knife and tried to dig open my chest.”
Between words, he was about to stand up.
As a result, as soon as he turned his head, he saw the rotten gambling ghost standing aside as well as the six dice freaks.
Immediately, he froze, and there was a hidden light flowing in his eyes, but it was instantly annihilated, and he just choked and drew his sword in his hand:
“Evil Ghost look at the knife!!!”
Knife together, straight to the face of the rotten gambling ghost.
Six dice monster immediately subconsciously will be shot, rotten gambling ghost but waved his hand to stop, randomly from the back of the waist touched, even dragged out the size of a person’s head of the dice.
This dice see the corners, raised his hand and was thrown out by this rotten gambler.
When it touched the blade of the knife, it immediately made a ding sound.
In an instant, sparks appeared!
Li Tianxin only felt a tremor around his body, his figure swiftly retreated, still wanting to kill again, when he heard Jiang Ran shout:
“Stop!”
Li Tianxin glanced at Jiang Ran: “What?”
“This is the new servant I’ve taken in, you cut me down and turn around and you’ll take his place?”
“…… Why are you in cahoots with the evil spirits?”
Li Tianxin was surprised:
“Although I know that you’re not a good person, you’re not this self-sacrificing.”
“You’re the one being self-indulgent.”
Jiang Ran glanced at Li Tianxin: “You just said that that hungry ghost wanted to eat your heart and liver, so how did you run out?”
“I’m strong in martial arts.”
Li Tianxin waved the knife in his hand, “Naturally, I killed the four directions, killed the heaven and earth, and chopped up all the evil demons and evil spirits, so I came out with a big strut.”
“And then passed out here?”
Jiang Ran raised an eyebrow, “Before coming here, have you ever seen any strange people?”
“Not yet, why do you ask?”
Li Tianxin’s face appeared puzzled.
Jiang Ran smiled:
“Nothing, just asking casually.”
“Now that we’re done asking we should leave, right?”
Li Tianxin looked around:
“This damn place, I don’t want to stay for even a moment.”
“Then you go by yourself first, I’m going to meet this Lord Ghost King.”
Jiang Ran laughed:
“After all, it’s a guest who passes through the door, there’s no reason to leave without seeing the master.”
Speaking here, he looked at the rotten gambling ghost:
“I guess you know where this Ghost King Lord is, right?”
“Subordinate knows.”
Rotten Gambling Ghost nodded: “It’s just that …… Lord Ghost King has always disliked jianghu people and jianghu matters. Just spending the rest of his life peacefully within this Infernal Town, does master really want to go see him?”
“Since you are spending the rest of your life within Infernal Town, why do you want to hit me with this burnt-tailed zither?”
Jiang Ran glanced at the Rotten Gambler, “Don’t tell me that your desire for the Scorched Tail doesn’t have the slightest relation to this Ghost King, right?”
“This …… is indeed somewhat related.”
Rotten Gambler said:
“In a few days, it will be the day of Lord Ghost King’s nether life.
“The big guys then wanted to find a birthday gift for his old man …… The Jade King then suggested that the Jiao Tail Qin had reappeared in the jianghu, so it was just the right time to take it as a gift.
“So, we plotted this night’s game.
“Said each according to their ability, just …… just did not expect subordinates not only did not get the scorched tail, but in turn, even their own have lost.
“Moreover, the Jade Prince also died an inexplicable.”
Now leaving the gambling table, this rotten gambler gradually recovered his normal sanity.
Suddenly, he looked at Liu Xiaoe:
“What’s going on with the Jade Prince? You are her Thousand Silk Ghost Consort, in these few days, have you ever noticed anything odd?”
