Chapter 96 Casino
Early the next morning, Fu Qingzhou slept until three o'clock in the morning before he regained his energy.
Today, he is going to the casino to meet Gu Zhengqing.
But he doesn’t plan to use the Soul Seducer to clear the way anymore.
First of all, there are five masters among the people who are eyeing Gu Zhengqing, and there is more than one person. This guy is not simple. I don’t know whether the soul-stirring lure can have an effect on him, just in case he scares the snake. trouble.
Fu Qingzhou still remembered the time when he and Tang Jiao went to a small village with confidence, but ended up running into a strong player from the Five Realms and almost fell into trouble.
Now he needs to be much more cautious.
He took off the Taoist robe he wore from the mountain, put on ordinary linen clothes, took off all the bows and arrows, and went out empty-handed.
Finding the casino in Stone Town... is not easy.
This town is not big, and most people need to have a job that can support themselves. It is normal to work at sunrise and rest at sunset.
There is only one type of person who spends his days wandering around the streets with no regard for any kind of livelihood. But as long as he has two dollars in hand, his eyes will immediately light up and he will feel proud, as if the world has already come to him. hand.
As long as you find such people and follow them, you will soon find the casino.
As expected, it only took Fu Qingzhou half an hour to target a few obvious gamblers on the street. Those people were together. In the morning, they moved some goods and took some money, and immediately They walked away hand in hand, and the employer didn't even hear that he had other work to do in the afternoon.
For them, the excitement of dozens or hundreds of taels of silver a minute in the casino can't be compared with moving money?
Moving goods? How much money can I make by moving a month's worth of goods?
Fu Qingzhou followed them quietly and soon arrived at their destination.
To his surprise, the casino had no cover. It was just erected on the street in an elegant manner, with the word "Gamble" written in flying colors on the wall.
Fu Qingzhou: "..."
He had forgotten that this was ancient times, and casinos were serious businesses... not the underground casinos he attacked when he was a criminal policeman in his previous life.
It was a waste of time. If I had just wandered around the streets more, I could have found this.
Pushing the door open, a hot breath hits the face, loud shouts hit the eardrums, the sound of dice crashing, dominoes hitting the table is endless, and there are even beautiful or romantic women walking among the crowd to wait on them.
In this world and in this day and age, are there any beautiful dealers?
Fu Qingzhou coughed lightly, subconsciously reached out and touched his body, touching the place where the money was placed.
I probably brought a hundred taels of silver with me today.
Now he is not so short of money. He cannot spend all the treasures and belongings in Wuwei Temple alone. He also brought a lot when he came down the mountain this time, which is enough to spend.
But if you want to get close to Gu Zhengqing without revealing anything, you have to shed some blood.
He squeezed into the crowd, found a size guessing table, took out a broken piece of silver, and slapped it on the paper with "big" written on it.
"Loss, lose, lose..."
Fu Qingzhou muttered silently in his heart.
With a bang, the dice cup fell on the table. When I opened it, I saw three dice, four, five, six, fifteen o'clock!
Some people cheered and some wailed around the table. Only Fu Qingzhou shouted excitedly on the outside but smiled helplessly in his heart.
But as the saying goes, nine out of ten bets will result in loss. As long as you keep betting, unless you deliberately gamble, you will always lose.
As he walked around the gambling tables, the money in his wallet also decreased little by little - of course he would not just come up and take pictures of all the money. It was not like a young man wearing ordinary clothes. things people do.
Gradually, he became a more conspicuous person in the casino.
Because he has a loud voice and is quick to pay out money. He doesn’t hesitate after losing money and immediately jumps into the next gambling game.
Finally, his wallet was empty.
But Fu Qingzhou did not immediately ask the casino to borrow money, but left the casino cursing.
It was almost dusk at this time. He shook his head and sighed. He came not far from the casino and took out the few copper coins he had left to buy a bowl of plain noodles.
While Xilihulu was eating noodles, the corner of his eye glanced across the street - two people hurriedly turned their faces and turned away.
Fu Qingzhou glanced at the entire street as if nothing had happened and continued to eat noodles.
Caution is right.
Nine gamblers died in Nushi Town in a month. Although the casino can still open normally, it must be extra careful. He believes that Gu Zhengqing must know that someone is targeting him.
Under such circumstances, there must be something wrong if a new face who is obviously from outside the town just walks into the casino, spends a lot of money, and starts to approach the casino owner very conspicuously.
So, Fu Qingzhou must be patient.
After eating the noodles, he sighed and walked towards the inn. He could feel the two people following him the whole time.
Shortly after returning to the inn, he walked out of the inn and went to the pawn shop.
The two people following him hid outside the pawn shop and observed for a long time, and finally saw Fu Qingzhou walking out holding a purse and cursing.
The two immediately got into the pawn shop. When the pawn shop court saw the two of them, they were obviously startled: "Hey, aren't these Brother Dao and Brother Sha under Master Gu? Why do you have time to come here? "
The man called Brother Dao had a scar on his face, and he sneered: "Stop talking nonsense, what did that man do to you just now?"
Chao Feng understood immediately and did not dare to be long-winded. He quickly replied: "Brother Dao, that boy pawned a piece of jade and exchanged it for seventy taels of silver."
The other murderer narrowed his eyes: "Where did you go from there? Can you see anything on the jade?”
“It’s hard to see clearly.” Chao Feng scratched his head and said, “It’s just a piece of jade with good water quality. Many wealthy families can get it.”
< br>"That kid doesn't look like he belongs to a rich family..." Brother Sha frowned.
Brother Dao asked: "Did that guy say where this jade came from?"
Chao Fengqi smiled and said: "Brother Dao, he only said that this is a jade passed down from his family, but you and I both know that, how can we believe this?"
The two men under Gu Zhengqing looked at each other and nodded each other. nodded.
“Look again.”
They quickly reached a consensus and turned to leave.
After the two of them walked away, Fu Qingzhou emerged from the shadow in the corner of the pawn shop.
"It seems that 'Gu Ye' is also short of money during this period." He chuckled, and then his smile faded slightly: "It seems that everyone who loses all their wealth in the casino is not an accident, and this Gu Ye is also He is very careful and picks people before he strikes..."
"Not like an ordinary casino owner in a small town."
Fu Qingzhou weighs the money in his hand. He will not do it tonight. Let’s go to the casino again, don’t be in a hurry.
What he is more worried about now is whether he will encounter the group of women in black last night in the process of doing things.
After thinking for a moment, he smiled sideways, stretched hard, walked into the crowd on the street, and disappeared.
Not long after, two veiled women in black appeared where Fu Qingzhou had been standing just now.
"Senior sister."
One of the women spoke, and her voice was that of the woman who fought with Fu Qingzhou last night: "This person is extremely smart and alert, and is very likely to ruin our major event..."
"Don't be anxious."
Another woman said softly: "Seeing that he doesn't act like a villain, I'm afraid he is just a young knight who was unintentionally involved in this matter. Think of a way to send him away. That’s it.”
After saying that, the two women were about to leave, but suddenly stopped and raised their heads at the same time.
A small piece of paper fluttered down above their heads.
They reached out to catch it, only glanced at it, and immediately looked at each other, with shock and confusion visible in each other's eyes.
