Confucian and Taoist scholar

Chapter 54 Changping Casino
Lu Zheng walked into the Changping Casino with his hands behind his back.

The two burly men guarding the door just glanced at Lu Zheng. There were always new people coming to the gambling house, including some rich young men dressed in luxurious clothes, so they didn't think much about it and let them in.

Even though it was already early morning, there were still some gamblers gambling in the gambling house, and the noise was noisy and lively.

As Lu Zheng entered the gambling house, he was hit by foul air and all kinds of unpleasant smells. The whole gambling house was filled with smoke.

A sharp-eyed waiter saw Lu Zheng, the new customer, and hurriedly came over to greet him with a smile on his face.

"What would you like to play, sir? We have everything in our gambling house!"

Lu Zheng said calmly: "Let's take a look first."

Upon hearing this, the waiter went to the side and poured a cup of hot tea and brought it to Lu Zheng.

"Sir, please have some hot tea!"

Lu Zheng's unusual appearance and dress made the waiter treat him as a distinguished guest.

"Thank you, I'm not thirsty yet."

Lu Zheng waved his hand to refuse, then wandered around the hall.

He observed carefully and found that most of the people in the gambling house had a hint of yin energy.

However, this trace of Yin energy was very faint. If Lu Zhengchang had not dealt with ghosts, he might not have been able to detect it without using his righteous energy.

Lu Zheng looked around and waved to the guy he had met before.

The clerk hurried over and asked, "What do you want, sir?"

Lu Zheng asked in a low voice: "Is there anything convenient here?"

"Uh..." The waiter was stunned for a moment, then quickly reacted, "Sir, please follow me."

After saying that, the guy led the way.

Lu Zheng followed the waiter out of the hall, went to the back hall, and came to a toilet.

"Thank you." Lu Zheng nodded slightly and walked into the toilet.

Places like toilets, which are filled with foul odors, are more likely to breed some special evil spirits, which can make people contaminated with bad luck and then have bad luck.

After a while, Lu Zheng came out.

There was no sign of any ghosts in the toilet, but there was evil energy in the back hall.

Just then, a gambling house manager came with a burly man.

The manager had just noticed Lu Zheng. He could tell that Lu Zheng was not a gambler at all and was not here to gamble. He seemed to be looking for something.

The steward smiled and looked at Lu Zhengdao, "I wonder what this young man is doing in our gambling house?"

Lu Zheng smiled and said, "I noticed that the feng shui of your gambling house is not good. It has a ghostly aura, so I came to take a look and help you get rid of the evil spirits."

Upon hearing this, the manager's face darkened and he said in a cold voice, "Oh? It seems you are here to cause trouble? We don't welcome you in this gambling house. Please leave!"

The housekeeper made a gesture of invitation, wanting Lu Zheng to leave on his own.

He saw that Lu Zheng was not an ordinary citizen, so he didn't want to use force directly.

Lu Zheng didn't move, but asked, "What if I don't?"

"That would offend..."

The manager frowned and gestured to the burly man behind him.

The burly man stepped forward. He was tall and strong, half a head taller than Lu Zheng, and had a muscular body. As he stepped forward, his strong physique overshadowed Lu Zheng, and his imposing manner was intimidating.

Lu Zheng raised his head slightly and looked at the sturdy warrior, his expression unchanged, a smile on his face, without moving a step.

Seeing this, the burly man raised his rough big hand and grabbed Lu Zheng.

Lu Zheng lightly moved his feet, quickly grabbed the sturdy man's arm, and threw him over his shoulder, sending him flying. The sturdy man flew backwards for more than two meters, his powerful body suddenly hitting the wall with a dull thud, and fell hard to the ground, splashing dust. He was unable to get up immediately.

"Cough cough..."

The strong man lay on the ground and coughed heavily several times before he could barely catch his breath.

He looked at Lu Zheng with an inexplicable look of horror in his eyes.

Lu Zheng clasped his fists towards the burly man and said, "I'm sorry, I've never fought anyone before, so I don't know how to handle the situation properly."

Not far away, there was an uproar.

The three people who followed Lu Zheng called some gamblers to come and watch the fun.

I was just thinking that if Lu Zheng found some ghost, I could make a scene and get their money back.

As a result, before the ghost even started looking for it, they were treated to a show.

They knew the abilities of that strong man. Whenever there were troublemakers, they would be beaten to tears by this man.

As a result, when I met Lu Zheng, a young man who looked weak today, I was thrown out in an instant and couldn't even get up.

The three of them were shocked and puzzled. How could this scholar have such great strength?

The manager was also startled, "You..."

Lu Zheng raised his hand again, scaring the manager so much that he took a few steps back.

However, Lu Zheng did not make a move, but took out a treasure from his sleeve and gently unfolded it.

The righteous energy was released and surged in all directions, and suddenly wisps of green smoke filled the surroundings.

"Wenbao!" Someone reacted quickly and called out softly.

The expressions of the others also became very interesting, staring at him curiously.

These people usually hang out outside and know a lot of things.

The cheapest of these scholar's treasures can be sold for ten taels of silver.

The cultural treasure displayed by Lu Zheng could extend its aura to more than ten feet, and was worth no less than a hundred taels!
Even these gamblers, who usually spend money lavishly, felt that Lu Zheng was too lavish and was treating the cultural treasures as ordinary paper!
"hiss……"

The manager was so frightened that he quickly left the area of Haoran Zhengqi.

Lu Zheng smiled and said, "It seems that everyone knows the function of the cultural treasure. The Yin Qi just disappeared, which means that this place is not clean. I am willing to help your gambling house to exorcise the bad luck, so why do you want to drive me away?"

The man who followed Lu Zheng echoed, "I was saying I've had bad luck lately. Turns out your gambling house is dirty. Sir, please help us find the dirty stuff and keep us from getting tainted by bad luck again!"

The other gamblers also realized something when they heard this.

One after another, they began to speak up and clamor for an explanation from Changping Casino.

Seeing that the situation was getting out of control, the manager panicked and pointed at Lu Zhengdao: "You are clearly here to cause trouble. Who sent you here?"

"What's going on? What's causing all this commotion?"

At this time, a loud male voice sounded.

Everyone looked sideways and saw several people coming towards the back hall.

The leader was wearing a black brocade robe, had a burly figure, a ruddy face, and was full of energy. He was a warrior.

"Third Master! Someone is causing trouble, saying our gambling house is dirty!"

When the steward saw the person coming, he immediately greeted him respectfully.

Mr. Ma San is the owner of the Changping Casino. His family is quite powerful and has several other businesses. He holds a very important position in Zizhu Town.
