mage in the late qing dynasty

Chapter 528 I started to be so ruthless that even I was afraid of myself

Master Ye took down the porcelain cup and looked up at Zhao Chuanxin teasingly: "What do you think it is?"

On Zhao Chuanxin's arm, the smart gyroscope vibrated three times.

He put all his chips in the "three" position.

Just as he was about to open the cup, Zhao Chuanxin stopped him: "Wait a minute."

Master Ye sneered and said, "What, did you go back on your word? Do you want to suppress '四' or '二'?"

Zhao Chuanxin looked at the people around him, and casually pointed at a man who looked stupid: "You come to drive, you come to join forces."

Master Ye's expression changed.

But he didn't speak, and stepped aside.

He felt that even without any means, it would be difficult for Zhao Chuanxin to win.

The man didn't refuse, he showed his arms and rolled up his sleeves, instead of eating the melon, he got into the melon himself, which made him even happier: "Okay!"

Open the cup, pull the small stick four by four.

In full view, it is impossible to make a mistake.

The man pulled it to the end, and sure enough, there were three chess pieces left.

"Three, this... Mister won."

Zhao Chuanxin grinned, and cupped his hands around: "Luck, luck, big vat of peaches, I'll just say I'm lucky today, okay?"

Li Zhitao looked at Zhao Chuanxin suspiciously, and suddenly felt that Zhao Chuanxin had been acting.

The master must have cracked Master Ye's spell, that must be the case.

So Li Zhitao felt relieved.

King Liu didn't think about it, but his frown relaxed a little.

Master Ye licked his lips without expressing much expression.

It is also possible that Zhao Chuanxin won by luck alone.

But Gao He's mentality was not that good, and his face was a little ugly.

Zhao Chuanxin stretched out his hand: "Let's lose money."

Master Ye took out four times the chips and handed them to Zhao Chuanxin.

Zhao Chuanxin was proud with his cigar in his mouth: "Look, everyone, with this move, I have thousands of taels of silver, and the capital is enough at once."

People around him cast envious and jealous eyes on him, thinking: Why wasn't I the one who won?
This is the most common psychology of gamblers.

1000 taels of silver is not a small sum.

In the second hand, Master Ye put the chess pieces together and changed the shape of the pile. The porcelain cup shook again and snapped down.

Since he is not allowed to open the cup, he can't use small tricks, and can only confuse his opponent with complicated operations.

He stared at Zhao Chuanxin's eyes: "How much do you buy?"

The smart gyroscope vibrated twice.

Within ten meters, it can be said that everything is under Zhao Chuanxin's control.

He pushed all the chips to the "Two" column again.

Just as he was about to appoint a new person, Master Ye spoke first: "This time I will call someone."

He was worried that Zhao Chuanxin inserted that person just now, although he didn't see anything wrong.

Zhao Chuanxin doesn't care: "Then you call, don't look for your people."

Master Ye casually ordered someone, and that person happily stepped forward, spit into his palm first, and then opened the cup.

Zhao Chuanxin said in his heart: I won't touch this cup even if it kills me.

The man was clumsy, and made a wrong dial after a few dials, and was pointed out by a bystander, and he dialed again.

For a moment, the remainder is 2.

The onlookers were in an uproar.

Gao He's face was as black as the bottom of a pot.

A trace of seriousness appeared on Master Ye's face.

Zhao Chuanxin had a look of "ecstasy": "Look, look, I just said that I am very lucky. A man who loves to laugh is always lucky. Give me the money."

Since today, there has been a catchphrase in Ao Island: men who love to laugh are always lucky!
1000 taels changed to 4000 taels.

As for Master Ye's chips, nearly one-tenth of them was missing.

Master Ye was still able to calm down, but he saw that he was holding the cup in his right hand, his wrist was shaking violently, and he was swaying quickly from side to side, leaving an afterimage.

And the fingers of the left hand are pulling back and forth on the pile of chess pieces, changing their shapes.

Zhao Chuanxin was sitting on a chair, smoking a cigar, crossing Erlang's legs, and applauded lightly: "Sure enough, there is a set!"

Master Ye: "..."

boom!
The porcelain cup is buckled.

Master Ye stared at Zhao Chuanxin's eyes and gritted his teeth: "You guess again!"

The smart gyroscope vibrated, Zhao Chuanxin: "I guess '四'!"

Master Ye piled high to congratulate and said, "Boss Gao, point to one person to drive."

Although he is proficient in this way, no one can say anything about luck.

Maybe changing one person can change Feng Shui.

Gao He took a deep breath: "It's just you."

In the crowd, a very short man with a mustache gave Gao He a surprised look, then a vague look at Zhao Chuanxin, and finally came to the table.

Just as this person was about to open the cup, Zhao Chuanxin asked coldly, "Where are you from?"

The man hesitated for a moment: "Xijiang."

Concise and concise, cherish words like gold.

Zhao Chuanxin narrowed his eyes.

The man saw it out of the corner of his eye, and there was not so obvious sweat oozing from his forehead.

Zhao Chuanxin didn't speak any more.

The man fiddled quickly, leaving four chess pieces.

He dropped the stick and didn't speak, but the result was obvious.

People around were in an uproar.

Win three times in a row!

You win!
And the little man who opened the cup returned to the crowd and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Except for Zhao Chuanxin, no one paid much attention to him.

Zhao Chuanxin slammed his fingers on the table, turned his gaze back, and looked at Master Ye: "Losing money, Master Ye, I can hit ten like you."

Good guy, Zhao Chuanxin's chips are close to 1 taels.

His original chips were only 280 taels, which was negligible.

In other words, Master Ye's chips were 1 taels less.

Not only did Gao He's face turn dark, but his forehead also started to sweat.

So much money is not a small amount to him.

When Master Ye was dividing the chips, his hands trembled undetectably.

Zhao Chuanxin's eyes were so sharp, remembering that the two of them ran against Li Zhitao and Liu Wang just now, Zhao Chuanxin pretended to be surprised: "Ah, Master Ye, why are your hands still shaking? Did you not eat? Or did you say something dark?" disease?"

The anger flashed across Master Ye's face: "Don't bother you."

"Oh, that's it. I'm a good person, and I always worry about it. That's right. What do other people care about me?"

"you……"

Cursing people to death properly is extremely hateful!
Master Ye said viciously: "Fan Tan is a small way, why don't we play something else?"

Pai Gow, Zhao Chuanxin didn't understand at all.

He said, "Let's play dice, otherwise it will make me feel like I'm bullying you."

Master Ye narrowed his eyes and said, "I think it's better to push Pai Gow."

"No, no, no, Pai Gow is too easy for me. I'm afraid that if you win, you will walk out of this door with bare buttocks. Then the outside world will spread the injustice of us in Shushan."

Master Ye couldn't figure out the details of Zhao Chuanxin, but Zhao Chuanxin insisted, and he must oppose it.

"That being said, instead of pushing Pai Gow or rolling dice, let's play poker, Sandcrab."

Sand crab is stud, Hong Kong style five.

Before the introduction of playing cards, there were similar games in China, but they were not popularized.

After the introduction of exotic poker cards, the combination of Chinese and Western games has quietly become popular.

But at this time Stud was far less popular than later generations.

Zhao Chuanxin doesn't know Pai Gow or Stud.

Rolling the dice is the most straightforward.

The most important thing is that he thinks that Pai Gow and poker, Master Ye is easy to make secret tricks, secretly stealing and changing cards.

Zhao Chuanxin had a relative in the past who knew this, and his quick hands made it hard to guard against.

But poker is better than Pai Gow because...

I just heard Zhao Chuanxin ask: "What kind of cards are there in the big vat of peaches and the casinos on the island of Australia?"

Big Vat Tao ordered a few words, and a croupier came over with a few decks. Zhao Chuanxin looked at them. Some had solid colors on the back, some had peony flowers on them, and some had circus clowns on them.

Zhao Chuanxin was amused when he saw it: "The gambling houses generally use these playing cards, don't they?"

"Yes." The croupier nodded.

Zhao Chuanxin took out a new deck of playing cards from his pocket, with the Statue of Liberty printed on the back.

He bought this from the United States, but he didn't expect it to come in handy today.

Take the poker cards by yourself, Master Ye can steal the cards, but he can't change the cards.

Zhao Chuanxin threw the poker on the table: "Come and shuffle the cards, use this."

Master Ye sweated like a waterfall.

He dared to call out to play poker, so he was naturally prepared.

But it made Zhao Chuanxin's coquettish operation flash his old waist... It is really hard to guard against.

He quit: "No, who knows if there are any ghosts in the playing cards you took out?"

Zhao Chuanxin said: "Then you can check it, we still find someone else to shuffle, cut and deal the cards, the two of us will not move."

Master Ye: "..."

In this way, he can't play tricks, let alone change cards, otherwise fools can see it.

Seeing that he was speechless, Zhao Chuanxin said to Li Zhitao, "Tell me about the rules of the sand crab."

The onlookers are overwhelming...

You don't even know the rules, so what cards do you play?

Stud is very simple, Li Zhitao explained it once and Zhao Chuanxin understood it.

Straight Flush, Four of a Kind, Full House, Flush, Straight, Three of a Kind, Two Pair, One Pair, Scattered Cards.

After listening, Zhao Chuanxin took off his coat and handed it to Li Zhitao, propping his chin with his hands: "Master Ye, do you order people or I order people to shuffle the cards?"

Master Ye's face was livid: "I'll order!"

In competitive games, you can't show mercy.

Shuffle, cut, deal.

One dark, one bright.

Master Ye found that Zhao Chuanxin didn't look at the cards at all, but just stared at him.

This is nothing surprising. In the sand crab game, masters have to watch their words and watch their attitudes to prevent being stolen or stealing from others.

Zhao Chuanxin has a K on his face, and Master Ye has a 10 on his face.

Zhao Chuanxin didn't even look at the cards, and threw down 100 taels of chips.

After reading the hole cards, Master Ye gritted his teeth: "Follow."

On the second hand, Zhao Chuanxin continued to bet, and Master Ye called as usual.

Zhao Chuanxin was a little puzzled.

Judging by Master Ye's appearance, it doesn't look like he has won a big card. Why does he keep following?
Until the last hand, Master Ye held an ace in his hand, and he chose to open the card.

Zhao Chuanxin chose to raise.

At this time, Li Zhitao, Liu Wang, Gao He and the surrounding spectators held their breaths.

The last move is the key, and it can easily involve stud or something.

Master Ye withdrew the card: "Don't follow."

That's it?

Zhao Chuanxin narrowed his eyes, feeling something was wrong.

When shuffling the cards, Zhao Chuanxin suddenly stretched out his hand: "Wait."

Master Ye's eyelids twitched.

The shuffler looked at Zhao Chuanxin suspiciously.

Zhao Chuanxin said to him: "Count the cards!"

There are a total of 28 cards in the sand crab game.

From 8 to A, four suits.

Master Ye's complexion turned pale.

He said: "I don't think it needs to be so troublesome."

Zhao Chuanxin pinched the cigar in his hand, and said lightly: "The main thing is that I am too skilled in gambling, and sometimes I can't control my hand, so let's check it out. If I lose money, I will chop off my hand. I'm so ruthless, I'm even afraid of myself."

When Master Ye heard this, his pupils began to tremble...
