23. I promise

The aroma wafts in the room, the pure aroma of lard.

Xu Da's stomach began to growl.

Niu Er immediately got into the kitchen, and when he came out, he had a large bowl in his hand, which was full of oil residue.

This oil residue has just come out of the pan, golden in color, with shiny oil stars.

Niu Er handed it to them and said: "Adults, if you don't dislike it, you can take two bites, but it will be a bit greasy. It will taste better after it is cold and sprinkle with some salt. You can't sprinkle salt now, otherwise the salt will melt."

Xu Daxin has already melted: "That's fine, I don't want to pick anything."

Wang Qilin put a piece of oil residue into his mouth.

delicious!

But the main business was to buy a knife. He said seriously: "Brother Niu, I am Tingtian Prison Xiaoyin Wang Qilin. You already know the purpose of coming to you this time. I wonder if you can part with your ancestral sword?"

Niu Er said with a bitter face: "Where can I find a precious sword..."

"Of course it's not a precious sword, it's a broken sword, a demon sword!" A woman came out and said loudly, "How long have you been hiding it? Let me tell you, so many things in the family are because of that knife.

! Today, the master from the Tianjian is here, and I have to say it no matter what!"

Wang Qilin was secretly happy and hurriedly handed over to the woman: "This is the second sister-in-law? I have met the second sister-in-law."

The woman was aggressive towards her husband, but she panicked when she saw the official: "I don't dare to be called "Second Sister-in-Law" by your Majesty. I am a woman who only knows how to pluck pig hair and fry lard. How can I be called Second Sister-in-law?"

Niu Er glared like a cow's eyes and yelled at her: "You also know that you are a woman who doesn't understand anything? Get back here..."

"Go away if you want!" The woman was even more tempered than him. "If I really go away, will you live with that broken knife? When you get sick and old, let that broken knife cook medicine for you.

Are you going to clean it up? When you eat too much pig-whip and bull-whip, are you going to pierce that knife?"

Niu Er choked up at these words.

Wang Qilin was shocked: What kind of arrogant words is this?

The woman said to him: "I have made the decision on this matter. Mr. Wang, I just heard what you said outside. There are experts among you who know the weirdness of that demon knife. If you really want it, just do me a favor."

, I can make the decision to give you the knife!"

"Please say!"

"I want you to destroy a gambling house in our village, arrest all the gamblers, and rescue my Yao'er!"

The thing is very simple. Niu Er has two sons and one daughter. Among them, the eldest daughter got married and the eldest son died in infancy, leaving only a precious youngest son.

But this kid doesn’t learn well, but he loves gambling!

Three generations of Niu Er's family have been in the butcher business, and they are better than the others. The family's wealth is considered rich in the countryside.

But since the Niu family's Yao'er came into contact with Pai Gow and dice, their family's money flowed into the gambling house like running water.

Today, not only did the family have no savings, but they also owed a lot of debt to the gambling house. The gangsters in the gambling house used all kinds of dirty tricks to collect the debt, so Niu Er had to close the stall and even locked the door of his house in broad daylight to avoid trouble.

After the woman finished speaking, Wang Qilin walked around the yard with his hands behind his back, then came back and said, "Prepare two ordinary clothes for us."

When he came, Xie Toad told him the pros and cons. Niu Erjia's knife was of little use or even harmful to ordinary people, but it was a magic weapon for those who had to deal with monsters and monsters.

So if you can get such a knife just by destroying a gambling house, this is really a good business with no capital and huge profits.

Xu Da asked: "How should we do it? Just change clothes and smash it directly?"

Xie Toad smiled and said: "You can't do this, it will get you into trouble. You just listen to my arrangements. I happen to know the inside story of this gambling house..."

"Do you know the inside story?" Wang Qilin looked at him fiercely: "How do you know Paifang Township so well?"

Xie Toad laughed loudly: "The old Taoist has been around here, so he naturally understands."

Gambling was banned in the New Han Dynasty, and public security management in the township was lax. The gambling stall in Paifang Township was located in a teahouse.

A few gangsters gathered at the door of the teahouse. When they saw three unfamiliar faces, they blocked the door.

Xu Da said with a cold face: "A good dog doesn't block the road, get out of the way!"

The leader of the gangster raised his eyes and said, "Why do you come to our teahouse?"

Wang Qilin said calmly: "Playing gambling."

The rogue then asked: "How many games can we play?"

Xu Dameng stretched out his big hand, pinched his neck and dragged him forward, punched him and started beating him: "You are so brave! How dare you scold my eldest brother? Huh? What did you want my eldest brother to do? You are so brave, tell me again!"

"

They were originally looking for trouble, and Xu Da was an expert in this area. If he caught a rogue making a slip of the tongue, he would beat him up.

Xu Da took action ruthlessly, and several gangsters from Hengxing Township ran away in a shameless manner. The gangster leader screamed: "Shake people!"

Gambling houses keep thugs, and the thugs are no better than gangsters. They are really capable of ruthlessness!

A lean man appeared from the second floor. When he saw Xu Da practicing as a rogue, he jumped down and chopped him with a knife!

Wang Qilin didn't have a knife in his hand and couldn't use the "Taiyin Soul-Destroying Knife", but he had ten years of skill, sharp eyesight, speed and strength far beyond ordinary people. When the thug pounced on him in the air, he twisted his waist and punched out!

This thug was a master. He slid in the air like a fish and slashed him three times with a flash of sharp knife in his hand.

Just as Xie Toad was about to help, Xu Da used the thug's head as a mallet to hit the dead man, knocking him to the ground twice.

Seeing this, Xie Toad took back his hand and said, "The old Taoist underestimates Xu Lishi."

Wang Qilin went to grab the knife.

With a sharp knife in my hand, I have the world!

The thug made people smash him into pig's trotters, and the gambling shop owner couldn't hide it anymore.

A well-dressed middle-aged man came out to say hello with a smile on his face: "Brother, spare your life, spare this kid's life, little man Ma Qiu. Brothers on the road like to call me Ma Qiu. I don't know where I offended you brothers."

?”

Xie Toad glanced at the middle-aged man and smiled when he saw a jade ring on his hand.

Wang Qilin said: "You didn't offend me, it was your brother who offended me. I wanted to go in and have fun, but your brother insulted me."

"This blind bastard!" Ma Qiu gritted his teeth and pulled up the rogue who was lying on the ground, slapped him twice and sent him into the teahouse.

Wang Qilin didn't look much, he walked into the teahouse leisurely with a knife.

Inside there were scoundrels and angry faces, but they dared not speak out in anger.

A group of gamblers came to watch the fun and were not afraid of death.

Ma Qiu laughed: "Uncle, what do you want to do? How do you want to make a fortune?"

Wang Qilin asked: "Can you still make a fortune by gambling?"

Ma Qiu said with a smile: "Of course, as the old saying goes, a small gamble can support your family, a big gamble can make you rich!"

Wang Qilin asked again: "I have never heard of anyone making a fortune from gambling, but I have heard that some people lost everything after losing."

"Brother, what you said is wrong," Ma Qiu laughed again: "Whose child cries every night, and some people lose every day? Is this the truth? Some people lose and some win, this game has been going back and forth since ancient times, right?

."

Someone shouted: "It's true, eating, drinking and having fun are all losses, only gambling has a return."

There are many tricks in the teahouse and gambling room, including the game of dead animals for money, Guan Po, dice games, dominoes, and the game of living animals including grass fighting, cricket fighting, cockfighting, etc.

Xie Toad nodded towards a table in the northwest corner, and Wang Qilin walked over.

"My lord, you want to play dice?" Ma Qiuxiao asked, "I wonder if you want to play dice or lottery?"

Qiong is the ancient name for dice. Tossing Qiong is to throw the dice and then bet on the size and guess the number.

The "color" of the color battle comes from the red and black colors on the dice. This gameplay is more complicated.

Wang Qilin also laughed: "I don't play this, I play ghosts!"

Ma Qiu was startled and laughed out of habit.
