There is indeed a lot of money under the rice jar, but it may not be all their belongings.
"It's all there. The borrowed money is all there!"
......
After threatening with fists and kitchen knives and realizing that they couldn't squeeze any more money out of them, the gamblers ran away.
"My son!"
The old woman curled up in the corner then burst into tears and rushed to her son. She wiped her tears and wailed that without money, how would her grandson build a house and marry a wife.
"I can't live without this money. It's all borrowed money. God...you, what are you doing?"
Through tears, the old woman saw her husband get up from the ground, then stumble out of the house.
"Come back, what are you doing?"
Ignoring his wife's screams, at this moment Mr. Gu had only one thought in his mind - the money must not be lost like this!
A corner of the dark clouds in the sky quietly dissipated, and the moon poked its head out, casting its light on the earth.
With the help of moonlight, Old Man Gu saw those bastards.
He tried desperately to catch up, but how could he catch up with his old age? He could only watch those people running further and further away.
My heart was beating wildly, and my chest was burning with pain every time I took a breath.
Old Man Gu’s eyes widened, his mind almost going blank.
"All troops, listen to my orders!!!"
At this time he should have shouted loudly to wake up the villagers and catch the robber, but after he stopped, he shouted only these words.
Even Old Man Gu himself couldn't figure out why he was still going crazy at this time.
However, as he shouted at the top of his lungs, not only did the grass on the ground straighten up, but even the big trees shook their branches in response.
Old Man Gu was stunned for a moment, and then a familiar voice came from behind him.
"Grandpa, give the order quickly."
The family where Tangtang stayed was right next door to Old Man Gu's house.
When the gamblers broke into the house, the little girl woke up in a daze.
After she walked out of the house, she saw from afar the old man struggling to chase after several masked men.
When he was about to call Xiaobai out for help, he was surprised to witness the moment when the old man successfully cast a spell.
"Hold them first, otherwise they will all run out of the village."}Free*&^Fees}Group+*+)(*^Lunch¢No±Period≡6∞0≤岭&㈦}No?/Age+)(*^
It would be easy to summon Xiaobai to solve the problem, but Tangtang felt that it would be better to let the old man do it himself at this time.
......
After Tangtang’s reminder, Old Man Gu came back to his senses.
He habitually wanted to whip it, but when he stretched out his hand he found that he had forgotten the whip at home.
"Central troops, listen up and stop the enemy!"
The old man pointed at the bandits majestically, and really looked like a general.
"what--"
Suddenly two of them stumbled and fell to the ground, and the movement speed of the others also slowed down significantly.
"What the hell?"
"The grass is all tangled around my feet..."
The gamblers couldn't help but panic when something like this happened suddenly while they were escaping.
Some people bent over to pull weeds, while others lifted their feet hard.
But no matter what, new grass would soon grow around, which was extremely annoying.
"Retreat quickly, the villagers are about to wake up!"
With so much noise made in the middle of the night, many villagers were awakened.
Seeing that oil lamps were lit in many houses, the gamblers became anxious.
They worked together to pull up the person who had fallen to the ground, and then ran towards the village entrance as hard as they could.
Snap, snap --
As the troops continued to rise and fall, the central army was defeated.
"Where are the generals of the north and south?"
At this time, Old Man Gu shouted again, and the branches of the two big trees at the entrance of the village swayed, and hit the two people who were running the fastest.
"Ouch!"
Several blood marks appeared on the two men's faces. They quickly protected their heads with their hands and stayed away from the southern and northern generals.
"There's a thief in the village!"
After a long delay, some villagers finally ran out waving wooden sticks.
"They are not thieves, they are robbers. Quickly lead them to General Dong. General Dong is the biggest and hits the hardest."
Old Man Gu shouted loudly, but unfortunately the villagers did not listen to him.
Wooden sticks flew everywhere, and the panicked gamblers were knocked to the ground in a few hits.
.......
The gamblers fell, the money was recovered, and even the magic was practiced.
Unexpectedly, after the little girl said congratulations, Old Man Gu burst into tears.
?s"Grandpa, why are you crying suddenly?"
Tangtang thought the old man was crying tears of joy, but he was crying so sadly that he didn't look happy at all.
"I, why am I so stupid!"
Old Man Gu beat his chest and stamped his feet: "After decades of hard work, I have only cultivated this thing. What kind of art is it to turn plants into soldiers? It can't even catch a few bandits!"
His mentality completely collapsed. The invincible magic that he had originally placed high hopes on to change his fate turned out to be no more effective than a few wooden sticks.
So, what was all the hard work for all these years?
Everything is wishful thinking, he is the biggest fool in the world!
“Hahahaha, hahahaha—”
After crying, he laughed again. Amidst his laughter, Old Man Gu looked a little crazy.
"Why are you crazy? The money that my grandson asked for his wife has been recovered. Your magic is quite useful."
A sharp voice rang out, and the old woman came over angrily and grabbed her husband's ear.
"Don't scream like a ghost. This time it's all thanks to you. I'll go home and make noodles for you."
Chapter 386: One Stone, One Technique
After being scolded, praised and pulled by his wife, the madness on Old Man Gu's face actually disappeared a lot.
But he still looked half-dead and listless.
"Why, you turned your face away when I rolled noodles for you?"
"Mom, stop scolding me. This time it's all thanks to Dad."
Gu's son came running over and said happily, "We'll roll the noodles tomorrow. Then I'll go to the city to buy a few bottles of wine and some roast chickens for Dad to satisfy his craving."
"It's so beautiful!"
The old woman laughed and scolded a few words. She stopped pulling her husband's ears and took his arm and walked home.
At this time, many villagers ran out, and they looked at Old Man Gu in amazement.
"It's like the two trees at the entrance of the village have become spirits. It's true that plants and trees can become soldiers."
"The old man of the Gu family is not crazy, he is really capable!"
Maybe the power of the technique of turning plants into soldiers is far less than I expected, but it is already amazing in the eyes of the villagers.
All the surprises and emotions can be summed up in one sentence - it turns out that Old Man Gu really knows magic!
"..."
Amid the noise, Tangtang discovered that although Grandpa Gu still looked depressed, he was no longer as hopeless as before.
"It seems that it's okay. Tangtang was really scared just now."
The little girl yawned, rubbed her eyes, and went back to sleep.
......
The next morning, Old Man Gu came to the place where he deployed his troops as usual.
But unlike before, this time he didn't have a whip in his hand, but had a pot of wine and a roast chicken.
"Oh my, you are so happy with wine in your left hand and chicken in your right hand."
Dong Yulou was walking over from a distance, and when he saw the old man's familiar look, he immediately started to joke.
"Humph"
Old Man Gu snorted coldly, and after a moment's hesitation, he sighed and asked, "Er Gou, do you still want that thing?"
"What? Are you willing to bet with me?" Dong Yulou looked at the old man in surprise, not caring about the issue of address for the time being.
"If you don't want to gamble, I'll sell it to you for a hundred taels of silver. If you want it, take it. If you don't want it, forget it."
Hey, is the sun rising from the west today?
Dong Yulou stroked his chin and thought for a while, then nodded decisively, "Yes! Wait a moment, I'll go back and get the money."
One hundred taels is not a small amount, but using this money to exchange for a spell is still a profit.
Soon, the two men exchanged spells with one hand and paid with the other.
"Grandpa, let's play war games today!"
The little girl walked towards the old man with a smile on her face and passed Dong Yulou who was holding a booklet in his hand.
The latter put the booklet in his arms and hurried towards Yancheng, completely unaware that there was a relic in the sky quietly following him.
Among all the big cities in Shang State, Yancheng is definitely unique and famous. Many people come here from afar every day.
They came here for no other reason than to gamble!
In this huge tobacco city, all the streets are filled with gambling houses of all sizes.
Here you can gamble on gold and silver, beauties, and even magic and skills.
Among all the gambling houses, Happy House has the deepest background and the strongest strength!
As soon as he returned to Happy Place, Dong Yulou felt like he was back home.
No, even if I have a beautiful wife and concubines at home, it is far from as comfortable as here.
"Brother Dong, you are here."
"Why are you here just now? Sit down and play a round!"
Dong Yulou opened his mouth and was about to say something when someone patted his shoulder out of the blue.
He turned his head and found a tall beauty with a silver rope wrapped around her right arm.
"Miss, do you have something to talk to me about?" Dong Yulou asked in a literary tone.
Xiaobai smiled slightly, pulled out the booklet from his clothes and slapped it on the table.
......
Yo ho, yo ho yo ho!
It must be pointed out that for gamblers, no matter how stunningly beautiful a woman is, her charm is far less than the word "gambling".
Xiaobai's provocative move instantly triggered Dong Yulou's gambling addiction, and he felt as if countless ants were crawling all over his body.
"You want my technique of turning plants into soldiers?"
