A lightning strike transmigrated Zu An into another world. In that world, he was known as the tr*sh of Brightmoon City, but for some reason, he was married to the gorgeous and highly talented daugh...
Zuan shrugged and said to the people around him, "You all saw it just now. I didn't want to make a move, but he insisted that I come out and fight him one-on-one. I had no choice. Who knew that this guy was all talk and no action, and actually so weak?"
The gamblers around him looked at him with complicated expressions, thinking that when it comes to verbal skills, probably no one here can compare to him.
They couldn't understand how such a good-for-nothing could catch up with the eldest daughter of the Chu family. They thought they were no worse than him, and that they could do it too.
But now they've finally come to a realization: at least in terms of shamelessness, they really can't compare.
Seeing the indignant look on the faces of the crowd around him, Zu'an originally wanted to say something provocative, but then he thought it would be better to take it slow and steady. So he said, "You just got a red card, so your luck must be good today. Come on, let's start."
"Alright, this way please, young master!" Mei Hua Qi was overjoyed. Just now, that fool Mei Hua Shisan had come out to cause trouble, making him worry that the other party would stop gambling. Now that he was courting death, he would be letting him down if he didn't win 100,000 taels this time. The only thing he needed to worry about was whether Miss Chu would intervene and stop him. He had to find a chance to get her away, otherwise it would be difficult to make this guy owe so much gambling debt.
Zuan was led to a gambling table. After what had just happened, the other gamblers also became interested, and many even stopped gambling to come and watch the excitement.
Zuan stared at the gambling table in front of him. He had only seen gambling games like Sic Bo on TV before, but this was the first time he had seen it in person.
Unlike the gambling I remember, there were many betting areas on the table, and simply betting on big or small was only a small part of the game.
Although I didn't understand it before, the area on the gambling table was written in a very easy-to-understand way, and I could tell what it was all about at a glance.
There are three dice in total. A sum of 4 to 10 is considered "small," and a sum of 11 to 17 is considered "big." Whether you bet on "big" or "small," the odds are 1 to 1.
Additionally, if you bet on all three numbers of the same value, the odds are 1 to 24.
But if you break it down further, since there are six possible outcomes for the same number of points, such as all 1s, all 2s, and so on, if you win any of these six types of triples, the odds become 1 to 150!
Alternatively, you can bet on the sum of the three dice. For example, if the sum is 4 or 17, the odds are 1 to 50; if the sum is 5 or 16, the odds are 1 to 18. The more likely the sum of the numbers is to appear, the lower the odds will be.
"Young master, will you bet on big or small?" Plum Blossom Seven asked with a smile, but in his heart he was calculating how to make him lose even more.
Zuan glanced at him: "Are you thinking of letting me win a few rounds first, so as not to scare me away?"
Mei Huaqi was taken aback, wondering how he knew, but he reacted quickly and said with a smile, "Young master is joking. On this gambling table, it all depends on your luck. How can we control it?"
"Is that so? My wife is a fifth-rank expert. If you dare to cheat in front of her, don't blame us for chopping off your hands if you get caught." Zu An was still not at ease, so he pulled Chu Chuyan to his side and threatened Mei Huaqi again.
Chu Chuyan glared at him fiercely, clearly displeased with his affectionate way of calling her "wife," but in front of so many people, she couldn't very well claim that their marriage was a sham, could she?
Upon hearing Zu An's words, Mei Hua Qi's smile faltered: "Young master, rest assured, our Silver Hook Gambling House has a renowned reputation and would never engage in such underhanded dealings. Did you see the runes on the outside of this dice cup? These are the work of a rune master from the capital, capable of isolating cultivators' vital energy and preventing them from discovering the dice. So, young master, you can rest assured."
The other gamblers secretly sneered, thinking to themselves, "Which gambling den doesn't cheat?" Although the dice cup was engraved with runes to prevent cultivators from interfering, there was a mechanism under the table that could temporarily change the numbers. However, everyone was hoping that Zu'an would lose everything, and they were all just waiting to see the show, so no one warned them.
Mei Huaqi, however, knew his own predicament. Now that Miss Chu was here, if he cheated, it would be difficult to hide it from her. But dealing with a little rascal like Zu An, he could make him lose everything even without cheating, so he didn't care much.
"How much are you planning to bet, young master?" Mei Huaqi asked again.
Zuan secretly took out a Lucky Pill and ate it before saying, "I'm too lazy to play small games, so of course I'm going all in."
"All-in?" Plum Blossom Seven was taken aback, clearly not understanding what it meant.
"You run a gambling den? You don't even know that?" Zaun gave him a disdainful look. "All-in means betting everything."
Mei Huaqi's smile faltered. He thought to himself, "I don't know where you learned such nonsensical language." He suppressed his anger and said, "Young master, you certainly have guts." As he spoke, he gave the waiter a wink. This guy went all in on the first round, so he couldn't play a triple, lest the banker win all his bets and scare him away on the first round.
The waiter understood, picked up the dice cup, shook it for a while, and then slammed it down on the table: "Place your bets now, place your bets now!"
Zu An took out a stack of silver notes and shook them in front of Mei Hua Qi: "Speaking of which, most of these silver notes were given to me voluntarily by Mei Hua Shisan. I wonder how many you will give me today?"
Mei Huaqi's face twitched. "What the hell did they give you? I heard about Mei Huashisan's affair. It was clearly you who shamelessly framed her, using the academy teachers to steal her away!"
Anger value from the Seven of Clubs +155!
However, Plum Blossom Thirteen is not very bright. He thinks he is invincible because of his high cultivation level. In the past few years, the gang leader has always valued him. Today, I will let the gang leader know that a brute who only knows how to fight is no match for someone like me who uses his brain.
