    Chapter 36

    Although Huacheng's words are full of contempt and are extremely rude, but when he opened his mouth, the man let others laugh at him and did not dare to argue. Xiao Huan, who led the pity here, said: "This son, you are really lucky today."

    Xie Lian's eyes did not change, and he said, "How do you say it?"

    Xiao Huan said: "Our city lords rarely come here to play. It's just these few days that I suddenly got interested. Isn't this bad luck?"

    Listening to her tone, it is obvious that she admires and respects this "City Lord". As long as she can see him, it is a great blessing. Xie Lian couldn't help but smile.

    The drapery is light gauze, and the shadows are red. The scenery is so charming. In front of the red curtain, there are still several beautiful girls standing in charge of the gaming table. Xie pity originally planned to stand outside and look at it. After hearing the voice of Huacheng, he began to try to squeeze in, but he still didn't make a sound. He squeezed to the third floor and finally saw the man who was betting on the gambling table.

    That is a living person. Xie Lian is not surprised. have already said that there are not only ghosts in the ghost market, but also many alchemists who have cultivated in the world. Sometimes, some dying people, or those who have thoughts of death, will also enter by mistake. The man was also wearing a mask, and his two eyes were bloodshot, red as if to bleed, and his lips were white, as if he had not seen the sun for many days. Although he was a living person, he was more like a ghost than the other ghosts present.

    He pressed his hands tightly against a black wooden gambling cup on the table, holding it back for a while, as if he was going out of his way, and said, "But...then why did that person bet on his legs just now?"

    A girl in front of the curtain said with a smile: "Just now that person was a great thief. His legs are very light. He traveled south and north, which is the foundation of his life, so those legs are worthy of bargaining. You are neither a craftsman nor a famous doctor, What is your hand?"

    The man gritted his teeth and said, "Then I... I bet my daughter's ten years of life!"

    Hearing this, Xie Lian was stunned and said in his heart: "There is actually a father who is betting on the life of his child, is this okay?"

    After the curtain, Huacheng laughed and said: "Okay."

    I don't know if it is an illusion, in this "go", Xie Lian heard a hint of coldness.

    He thought again: "Sanlang said that he has always been lucky, and the lottery is also on the lottery. If he bet with this person, wouldn't he definitely win the ten years of his daughter's life?"

    Just thinking about this, I heard the girl at the long table whisper: "Even numbers are negative, odd numbers are wins. Once you open the cup, you will never regret it. Please!"

    It turned out that Huacheng would not end up gambling at all. The man trembled for a while, his hands tightly clinging to the gambling cup, and shaking violently for a while, the lobby became a little quieter, and the sound of the dice crashing in the gambling cup became clearer. For a long time, his movements stopped abruptly, and then there was a dead silence.

    After a long time, the man slowly, very slowly pried up the corner of the gambling cup, peeked through the crack, and his bloodshot eyes suddenly stared.

    He suddenly lifted the wooden cup and said with ecstasy: "Single! Single! Single! I won! I won! Hahahahahahahaha I won!!! I won!!!!"

    All the ghosts around the long table wanted to see such a result. A girl smiled and said, "Congratulations. Your business will improve soon."

    The man laughed for a while, and then shouted, "Wait a minute! I still want to bet."

    The girl said, "Welcome. What do you want this time?"

    The man sank his face and said, "I want, I want the opponents who are in the same line as me to all die violently!"

    Hearing this, there was a sound of tsk tsk in the lobby. The girl covered her mouth and said, "If that's the case, it's a little more difficult than what you just asked for. You don't want to ask for something else? For example, to take your business to the next level?"

    But the man's eyes were red and he said, "No! I'm going to bet on this. I'll bet on this."

    The girl said: "Then, if this is what you want, your daughter's ten years of life, this bargaining chip may not be enough."

    The man said: "If it's not enough, add more. I bet on my daughter's twenty-year lifespan, plus... plus her marriage!"

    The ghosts were in an uproar and laughed loudly: "This father is crazy! Selling his daughter!"

    "Great, great!"

    The girl said: "Even numbers are negative, odd numbers are wins. Once you open the cup, you will never regret it. Please!"

    The man started shaking the gambling cup again. If he loses, his daughter will lose 20 years of life and a good marriage, which is naturally not good; but if he wins, will his colleagues really all die violently? But Xie Xie Lian felt that Huacheng should not let such a thing happen, but after several hesitations, he still stood a little bit forward. He was still hesitating whether he should make a move or not, but at this moment, someone grabbed him. When he looked back, it was Shi Qingxuan.

    Shi Qingxuan has recovered his male body and whispered: "Don't be impulsive."

    Xie Lian also whispered: "Master Feng Shi, why have you changed back?"

    Shi Qingxuan said: "Hey, it's hard to say anything, those aunties and little sisters dragged me and said they wanted to introduce me to a good store. I finally escaped, I was afraid of being caught by them again, so I had to change back first. They took me back. Pulled to a place and applied a lot of things to my face, and pulled, pulled, slapped and slapped, look at my face, is it okay? Is there anything wrong?"

    He put his face in front of Xie Lian, Xie Lian took a closer look, and said the truth: "It seems to be smoother and fairer."

    When Shi Qingxuan heard it, his face glowed and said: "Really? That's good, great, hahahaha. Where is the mirror? Where is the mirror? Let me see."

    Thanks for the pity: "Look at it later. This ghost market can't be channeled, and we must not get separated again. By the way, Master Feng Shi, how did you know I was here?"

    Shi Qingxuan said: "I didn't know you were here at all. I came here because I made an appointment with Qianqiu to meet here. I just came here first after I got separated. Who knew that I would see you when I came in and took a look. ."

    Thanks for the pity: "You made an appointment with Qianqiu? Meet here?"

    Shi Qingxuan said: "Yeah, Qianqiu is Lang Qianqiu, Your Highness Taihua, you should know this? He is the god of war who guards the east. It is better to make an appointment with him when we come here. Ghost gambling is a ghost market. It is one of the most lively and mixed places in the city, with landmark buildings, people coming and going, and there are many ghosts, so it is not easy to arouse suspicion, so I told him before that we will meet here."

    Xie Lian nodded slightly. Looking back, the man hadn't opened his cup yet, his eyes were white, and he was chanting, just like other ghosts dancing in the casino. He sighed: "This man..."

    Shi Qingxuan said while touching his face: "I know what you are going to say, I agree. However, the ghost market is the site of Huacheng, and the rules of the ghost casino are your wishes and my wishes. If you dare to gamble, you dare to play, and the heaven is in charge. No. Let’s wait and see what happens, if it doesn’t work, let’s find a way.”

    Xie pity pondered for a moment, thinking that Saburo should not let such a thing happen, it would be better to wait and see, so he did not move. And the man on the table seemed to finally muster up the courage to open a crack in the gambling cup, and the result was about to be revealed. Who knows, at this moment, someone suddenly grabbed it, covered it with one palm, and smashed the black wooden gambling cup to pieces!

    This palm not only smashed the gambling cup, but also smashed the man's hand covering the gambling cup, and even the entire table was shot with a crack.

    The masked man rolled on the ground and shouted while clutching his broken bone. The ghosts also shouted, some applauding, some screaming. And the man took action and said loudly: "You are such a vicious heart! You ask for glory and wealth, but that's all, what you ask for is someone else's violent death?! You want to bet, you have the ability to take your own To gamble with your life, to gamble with your daughter’s lifespan and marriage? It’s not worthy of being a man or a father!”

    This young man has bright eyebrows and bright eyes. Although he only wears a simple soap clothes, he is not wearing fancy clothes, but he does not hide his extravagance. Who is Lang Qianqiu, the crown prince of Yong'an Kingdom?

    Seeing him, Xie Lian and Shi Qingxuan were among the ghosts, covering their faces at the same time.

    Xie Lian groaned: "...Master Feng Shi, you... didn't tell him... Be careful when you get here, and keep a low profile..."

    Shi Qingxuan also groaned: "...I...I said it, but...he is such a person...I can't help it...I knew me...we should have an appointment with him..."

    Thanks for the pity: "I understand...I understand..."

    At this time, Huacheng behind the curtain chuckled.

    And Xie Lian's heart also hangs.

    This young man often laughs when he is with him. Now, Xie Lian can almost tell when he is sincere, when he is pretending to mock, and when he is murdering again.

    I just heard him say leisurely: "Come to my place to make trouble, you are very courageous."

    Lang Qianqiu turned to that side, and his eyes were bright and authentic: "You are the owner of this casino?"

    The ghosts on all sides scoffed: "You ignorant child, do you know who you are talking to? This is our city lord."

    Some people sneered: "It's not just this ghost casino. This whole ghost market belongs to him!"

    Hearing the words, Lang Qianqiu didn't react very much, but Shi Qingxuan was taken aback and said, "My mother, who is behind that?! Blood rain and flowers?"

    Thanks for the pity: "Well...it's him."

    Shi Qingxuan said: "Are you sure?!"

    Thanks for the pity: "I'm sure."

    Shi Qingxuan said: "Dead, dead. What will Qianqiu do now?!"

    Thanks for the pity: "...I hope he won't reveal his identity..."

    Lang Qianqiu looked around, but became more and more angry, and said: "This ghost place is smoky, and the demons are dancing. What are the things that come and what are they doing? There's not a shred of humanity left!"

    The ghosts booed and said, "We're not human in the first place, what kind of humanity do we want, whoever wants that kind of thing will take it!"

    "What are you, come here to point fingers at us!"

    Huacheng smiled and said: "My place is originally a carnival hell. If there is a way to the heaven, you don't go, and there is no door to hell, you break in, so what can you do?"

    Hearing the word "heaven", Xie Lian and Shi Qingxuan instantly understood.

    Huacheng really has seen where Lang Qianqiu came from!

    However, Lang Qianqiu didn't understand the meaning of these words at all, and he slammed it on the long table. He stood at the end of the long table, and with this split, everyone around the table dodged, and the long table went straight to the red shadow behind the curtain. But seeing the figure sitting behind the scene unchanged, with a wave of his hand, the long table rushed back in the opposite direction and slammed into Lang Qianqiu.

    Seeing the long table fighting back, Lang Qianqiu first held it with one hand, and then seemed to find that he couldn't stand it with one hand, and immediately changed his hands. As he pressed against it, light blue veins gradually appeared on his forehead. Xie Lian and Shi Qingxuan couldn't decide whether to help or not. After all, the two of them should not be exposed now and can help in secret. If you really want to jump out to help, that is to catch three.

    There, Lang Qianqiu drank, and finally pushed the long table back again. The shadow of Huacheng behind the red curtain is still sideways, the five fingers are gently gathered, and then gently released. The long table was split into countless pieces of wood chips, and flew towards Lang Qianqiu.

    These sawdust carries a very sharp blade wind, which is more terrifying than any hidden weapon. Ruolang Qianqiu still hides his mana and maintains his body, which cannot be avoided no matter what. So, at the next moment, a layer of light was released from his body. Xie Lian and Shi Qingxuan immediately understood, and they said: No, this will turn into a Dharma body!

    However, this layer of shallow aura faded immediately, probably because Lang Qianqiu finally remembered that this trip could not reveal his identity, so he quickly withdrew the aura at the critical moment. However, Lang Qianqiu closed his hand, and Huacheng would not close his hand. After the red-clothed figure sat on the red curtain, his gesture changed, his five fingers were close together, and he lifted it slightly.

    This lift, Lang Qianqiu's whole person suddenly hangs in the air, in a large font, floating on the ceiling of the casino lobby!

    After being trapped, Lang Qianqiu didn't seem to understand why he suddenly floated up, and he earned twice with a blank face. Xie pity said with a headache: "He is locked in mana, and it is impossible to transform into a law body now."

    Shi Qingxuan said: "The ghost city is the site of Huacheng, and it can be locked if it is to be locked."

    Although at present, Lang Qianqiu is controlled by others, but there is also an advantage, that is, his true identity is probably barely kept secret. Otherwise, if he had just transformed into a dharma body during the fight and let others know that the Oriental Martial God Taihua Zhenjun came to the ghost market to make trouble, it would not be so simple. After all, for so many years, except for some special events, the heaven and the ghost world can be regarded as wells and rivers.

    The uninvited guests who made a big fuss about the casino were locked, and all the ghosts who had escaped turned back, gathered under the lobby, pointed at Lang Qianqiu, who was locked in the air above, and laughed. Lang Qianqiu has probably never been in this predicament, his face rose slightly red, and he did not say a word, secretly trying to break free from the invisible bondage. From time to time, ghosts jumped up and wanted to pat him on the head. Fortunately, Huacheng hung him very high and could not be photographed, otherwise the humiliation would be too big. Huacheng smiled behind the red screen: "If you catch such a thing today, you can play it. Whoever is lucky enough to bet a big one, whoever will take it back and cook it."

    Hearing this, the lobby cheered and screamed: "Bet big! Bet big! The one with the most points, take him back and cook!"

    "Oops, this little brother, he looks really good, hee hee hee..."

    "Hahahahaha stupid, you don't know whose territory you are making trouble!"

    The four masked men brought in a new long table again. No one paid any attention to the masked man who was writhing and writhing on the ground. All the ghosts gathered around the long table again and started the next round of gambling. And this time the bet is Lang Qianqiu, who is hanging in the sky. Seeing that the betting is in full swing there, Shi Qingxuan walked around here, anxious to throw his hands: "What should we do? Are we going to go up and bet him back? Or just start the fight?"

    Thanks for the pity: "Master Feng Shi, how are you feeling?"

    Shi Qingxuan said: "Of course there are good times and bad times. How can there be a conclusion about luck?"

    Thanks for the pity: "Yes. For example, I have never had a better time."

    Shi Qingxuan said: "So miserable?"

    Xie pity nodded and said: "I roll the dice, at most two points."

    Shi Qingxuan frowned, and immediately had an idea, he patted his leg and said: "It's better than this, since you have at most two points, then compared with others, you will have the smallest number of points thrown. There must be no one who can be smaller than you. already."

    Xie Lian thought about it and said, "It makes sense, I'll try it."

    So, he moved to the long table and said, "Why don't we change the rules and see who throws the smallest number of points? Whoever is smaller wins, how about it?"

    There was a mess on the table, some said yes, some said bad, Xie Lian grabbed two dice first, and tried to throw one.

    He thought to himself: "Small, small, small." After the toss, two people came over to take a look - two six o'clock!

    Thanks: "..."

    Shi Qingxuan: "..."

    Xie Lian rubbed his brows and said: "It seems that your luck will not change because of the changes in the rules."

    Shi Qingxuan also followed his example and rubbed his eyebrows and said, "Why don't we start the fight directly."

    At this time, a girl approached the red curtain and leaned over slightly, as if listening to what the person behind the curtain was saying, nodded, raised her head again, and raised her voice: "Please be quiet, the city lord has something to say."

    As soon as she said that the city lord had something to say, the ghosts immediately stopped and were extremely quiet. The girl said: "The city owner said, change the rules."

    All the ghosts said: "The city owner is the rule!"

    "What the city lord says is what it is!"

    "What's the change?"

    The girl said: "The city owner said that he is in a good mood today and wants to play two games with everyone. Everyone can bet with him, and the person who wins the bet can carry this thing away. Whether it is steaming, boiling, or frying Fried and pickled, it's all up to the winner."

    When they heard that they were going to gamble with the city lord, all the ghosts hesitated. It seems that Huacheng really never ends up playing. There are a few daring ones who are eager to try, but none of them dare to come up first. Lang Qianqiu has been struggling on the top, and said angrily: "What is this thing? I am not a thing, why do you take me as a bet?"

    He said loudly, "I'm not a thing", and many female ghosts listened, snickered, stared at Lang Qianqiu, and the tip of the blood red tongue swept his lips, as if he wanted to eat him more. . Xie Lian thought: "Hey... this child. You should say a few words less."

    Sighing silently, he stood up and said warmly, "If that's the case, then please let me give it a try."

    Hearing this, the figure behind the red curtain also paused, and then slowly got up.

    The girl in front of the screen smiled and said, "Then, please invite this young man to come forward."

    In the lobby, Renren Guigui automatically divided the space to make way for the warrior. Xie pity stepped forward, and the girl held a pitch-black gambling cup in her hands and said, "Please ask first."

    She used "you" to treat those gamblers before. Although her words were calm, her tone was not polite. At this time, she used "you" to him, and her tone was also very respectful. Xie Lian took the black wood gambling cup from her, said thank you, and coughed lightly.

    He hardly ever touched this kind of thing, he would shake it when he held it, and pretended that he was very good at it. Shaking, looking up, glanced at Lang Qianqiu hanging above. Lang Qianqiu also opened his eyes wide and looked at him eagerly, but he finally didn't shout anything. Looking at his expression, Xie Lian wanted to laugh inexplicably, and held back. After shaking for a long time, it finally stopped.

    Countless pairs of eyes were staring at the cup in his hand, and Xie Lian also felt that this little gambling cup had become extremely heavy, and I didn't know what posture to use to open it. Just as he was about to reveal the result, the girl said again, "Wait a minute."

    Thanks for the pity: "What's the matter?"

    The girl said: "The city lord said that your posture of shaking the cup is not right."

    Xie Lian thought: "It turns out that there is really a correct posture? Could it be that I had bad luck in the past because of the wrong posture?"

    He humbly said: "Then may I ask, what kind of posture is the correct posture?"

    The girl said: "The city owner said, please come up, he is willing to teach you."

    Hearing this, the ghosts in the casino made a hissing sound.

    Xie Lian heard a ghost whispering: "The city master taught him, this is really unprecedented, is this person going to die?"

    "What does the city owner want to do??? Who is this person??? Why do you want to teach him???"

    "Isn't the shaking cup just like that?? Is there any correct posture???"

    Xie pity is also thinking about this question, the girl has already invited the red screen and said to him: "Please."

    So, Xie Lian hugged the black wooden gambling cup and walked to the red curtain.

    The veil is fluttering, and the red shadow is chaotic. The people behind the scenes are standing opposite, with only half an arm apart between the two.

    After holding his breath for a moment, one hand separated the heavy red curtains, protruded from behind the curtain, covered the back of Xie Lian's hand, and supported the gambling cup.

    It was a right hand, slender and pale, with well-defined knuckles and a red thread on the third finger.

    Against the dark and bright wooden cup, the white is paler, and the red is more vivid. Slowly, Xie Lian raised his eyes.

    Behind the red cloud-like veil, stood a boy of eighteen or nineteen in silence.

    It's Saburo.

    The clothes are still red and maple is better, and the skin is as white as snow. It was still that handsome and unbelievably handsome young man's face, but the outline was clearer, the youth's youthfulness was removed, and it was more calm and calm. Said it was a boy, but it could also be said that it was a man.

    The wild love between his brows is inexhaustible and arrogant. The eyes are still bright as stars, the eyes are heavy, and they are staring at Xie Lian intently.

    Only, bright as a star, but only has one left eye.

    A black eye patch covered his right eye.
