Chapter 161 Gambling Guile (asking for monthly ticket)



The sound of dice shaking was heard again. Li Yuan, with tears in his eyes, looked at Wei Wu tremblingly, still unable to control his body and leave the gambling table.

At his feet was Ding Yuan's body, with his smiling face with sunken facial bones facing Li Yuan.

He must have lost something in the game he just lost, but he doesn't know it yet. This fear of the unknown is more difficult to bear than dying directly.

Not far away, Wei Wu quickly thought of a countermeasure and looked at Xue Er and Ma Zi, "Did you bring a scapegoat?"

Although they were reluctant, they still nodded.

In the Evil Suppression Bureau, as long as the merit points are sufficient, everyone will give priority to exchanging for a scapegoat, as this is a life-saving item.

Wei Wu called the two aside and analyzed the current situation in a low voice, "Now the entire gambling house is under the control of this 'gambler ghost'. I'm afraid we must follow the gambler ghost's rules and win the bet to leave the gambling house."

Evil ghosts rarely appear in Wangshan City, so this is already a major case. They can't leave at the moment, so they can only fight once.

The correct content is in %六九% book'bar!

Xue Er did not hesitate at all. He went over and pulled up the distraught Li Yuan, then turned around and left behind Wei Wu.

What is the difference between him, Li Yuan, and Ding Yuan? Ma Zi thought carefully and suddenly opened his eyes as if he had received an electric shock.

Ma Zi's neck veins bulged, and he forcefully pressed Li Yuan's hand toward the gold. "Aren't you afraid that the gambling game will continue after you take the red rope? Who are you going to lose next time? You can only survive if you take the money and leave the table. I'm doing this for your own good!"

"People who are not at the table cannot interfere with those at the table. No matter what they do, they will be blown away by the rules of the gambler. Therefore, if you want to take action against the gambler, you must participate in it."

Many thoughts flashed through Ma Zi's mind, and finally he nodded and took the nails that Wei Wu handed over.

He lost, but the scapegoat was intact, just like Li Yuan's previous situation.

Ma Zi tried to leave the gambling table, but his body was still unable to move. Ma Zi panicked and asked Wei Wu for help, "Master Wei, help me, I can't gamble anymore, find a way!"

The sound of the gambling house door opening came from the darkness, and Wei Wu and Xue Er turned around in surprise.

Ma Zi sneered in his heart. The person sitting at the table was not Xue Er, so what was the point of speaking nicely?

A red hairband and a ten-liang gold ingot.

Thinking of this, Li Yuan grabbed the red rope without hesitation.

Dante Yuan clearly lost once and the gambler broke his neck.

Ma Zi's whole body tensed up and he felt a chill running through his body. He immediately took out the scapegoat and opened his eyes in surprise.

Li Yuan's face was covered in sweat and he breathed a sigh of relief.

"I don't want to gamble anymore. I have to go back. I have to go back right away!"

Ma Zi looked in disbelief at the two people who had just said they would do their best to help him. Looking at the captain and teammates who had been through life and death with him every day, his blood started to run colder.

Li Yuan's palm pressed on the big characters, and Ma Zi pressed on the small characters.

Li Yuan burst into tears, "Let me go, I want to save my young mother, let me go!"

If he could solve this case, he would get a lot of merit points, and it would also help him get promoted to Gold Tour in the future.

Hearing this, Xue Er secretly breathed a sigh of relief and immediately said to Ma Zi, "Don't worry, I will try my best."

When Li Yuan saw the scapegoat sticking out from Ma Zi's collar, his eyes turned bloodshot and filled with tears. He felt a surge of anger in his heart, but in the end he could only grit his teeth and endure it.

"Are you crazy? If we miss this opportunity, none of us will be able to get out!"

Only Wei Wu remained as steady as a rock, without any sign of panic. He just stared at Li Yuan and said loudly, "Li Yuan, you won a round. Let the gambler open the gambling house and let us out."

Wei Wu looked at the door and then at Ma Zi. The rules of this gambling trick were quite powerful. He was not a ghost-walking person, and his chances of successfully detaining the gambler were slim with just the ghost items on his body. For such things, they usually only did preliminary investigations and directly pushed the blame to Ye You when taking the final action.

"Li Yuan!"

As a silver miner, Ma Zi was much stronger than Li Yuan. He begged and struggled with tears in his eyes, but Ma Zi still pressed his hands forcefully on the gold.

"Dad, you have to come back from work early and remember to buy some shortbread. It's mom who wants to eat it, not me~"

The ghost hand in the dark grabbed the dice cup and opened it. Ma Zi was sweating with nervousness, but before he could activate his nails, the hand disappeared in a flash.

Squeak——ah——

His daughter's voice was still echoing in his ears, and Li Yuan suddenly realized that what he lost in that game was his young daughter's life!

Arriving at the table, Ma Zi immediately felt a chill, with a foul smell filling the air. His body became stiff, corroded by an invisible force, and he felt as if he was slowly dying.

"Choose the right time to throw this nail. It will make you lose your nail after using it, but it won't kill you. As long as we can restrain that gambler for a few seconds, Xue Er and I will have a chance to imprison him."

Xue Er swallowed and glanced at the pockmarked man next to him.

And I heard that Shengjing has found a way for ordinary people to safely control evil spirits and become ghost walkers, but only Jinyou is eligible to apply.

If you do more meritorious deeds, you will always be able to get ranked higher. When you become a ghost walker, you won’t have to feel so depressed.

So after they lost just now, it wasn't themselves who died, but their families? Just like those gamblers, when they lose desperately, they can even sell their wives and daughters, just for a chance to turn the tables. Ma Zi felt cold all over, and an uncontrollable panic crept into his heart, making him tremble all over. His wife just gave birth to a son for him, and his parents have always been in good health. He can't lose any of them!

Wei Wu shouted loudly, and the pockmarked man next to Li Yuan was quick-witted and used his only movable arm to grab Li Yuan's hand that was reaching for the red rope.

Thinking of this, Wei Wu suddenly said to Xue Er, "Take Li Yuan with you, retreat first and then think of a solution."

Li Yuan almost collapsed and cried. Now that he had won a game, could he win back his little girl's life by choosing the red rope?

Wei Wu knew that neither of them wanted to go, so he took out a red cloth bag from his sleeve. When he opened it, there was a bright red, fleshy nail inside.

Ma Ziqiang pulled Li Yuan's hand towards the gold ingot.

After all, dealing with evil spirits above the fourth level is the responsibility of the night patrol, and there is no need for them to take the risk during the day patrol.

Three, five, six, fourteen points big.

Sure enough, the red hairband that was originally tied around his wrist disappeared at some point. It was tied for him by his six-year-old daughter when he went out.

Li Yuan watched the red rope disappear. He missed the chance to win back You Niang's life. Then he relaxed all over. The oppressive force on his body disappeared. He staggered back two steps from the table, and fell to the ground with his legs going soft.

Wrap it with his hair and smear the blood on it, and the preparations for the dead straw man are complete.

But what Wei Wu said was not wrong. With one betting big and the other betting small, the chances of winning were great. Even if he lost, he had a scapegoat to help him.

He pulled out a dagger, cut off a lock of his hair, cut his fingertips, and took out a straw doll wrapped in red cloth and tied with a red string from his lapel.

Ma Zi frowned and said to Li Yuan, "You bet on big, I bet on small."

"Don't worry, I won't joke with your lives, Ma Zi. Later, you can take this nail to the table and bet with the white servant, one on big and the other on small. As long as the leopard doesn't win all, one of you will definitely win. You also have a scapegoat, so nothing will happen."

Seeing the red rope, Li Yuan opened his eyes in surprise and immediately looked at his wrist.

Ma Zi panicked and began to struggle violently, wanting to go home immediately to see who had the problem at home? Wei Wu and Xue Er were watching from the side, and at this moment they suddenly thought of the price of losing. Xue Er swallowed and took a half step back, because he also had a family.

He and Li Yuan had families, but Ding Yuan had no parents or brothers and was the only one in his family.

Ma Zi clenched his nails, took a deep breath and walked towards the gambling table.

"Take my life, and let my young mother go, let my young mother go!"

Bang! The three disappeared at the door, which was ruthlessly closed. The entire gambling house was dark and terribly quiet.

Then, the sound of dice shaking was heard again.

Each time, Ma Zi trembled all over and was terrified to the extreme.

"I won't gamble anymore. I won't gamble anymore!!"
