Chapter 458: Greedy and Illusory Seeds
Of course, the gambling equipment in Yuanlai's gambling house was quite good. As soon as Wenjun made some luck, the cards in his hand began to glow red.
But no one accused her of cheating, because everyone else had the same cards.
There are differences between leaf cards and dice. As long as the folded cards on the table do not change color, it is basically not cheating.
As for the change of color of the cards in your hand, it is naturally because you want to prevent others from peeking through magic.
Of course, since the card in your hand turns red, it means that if someone uses magic to see your card, it will not be considered cheating.
After all, you can't blame others. If you're not as good as others, you can only admit it.
There is no absolute fairness anywhere in the world, not to mention the fairness of gambling houses is the willingness to accept defeat.
Wenjun didn't care about winning or losing, but when others came to check her cards, she either let them look at them directly, or took the opportunity to cleverly block them, or directly disrupted their investigation and gave wrong information.
It's not that I want to win poker, but I just do it because I want to do it.
Her focus was not on winning or losing.
Although Lingqing brought them to the gambling house and gave them a lot of pearl coins as gambling capital.
But she didn't think that Lingqing just brought them here to play, or that she didn't just rely on gambling to have fun.
Therefore, while playing, she also took the opportunity to condense illusory seeds using the method of flowers blooming in an instant, and attached them to the leaf cards in her hand.
When this card is taken away by others, the illusory seed will follow a link and gather the greed in his heart.
When Wenjun played a card, the skinny old man played the same card the moment he saw it, and then put it away.
And the moment he touched the card, the illusory seed quietly fell into his heart.
After that, Wenjun targeted him from time to time and stirred up his greed.
Every time greed flashes in his heart, the seed will swell and swallow up that trace of greed.
It made him feel that when he should have been happy about winning cards, he was always a little bit behind.
Even if the pearl coins in Wenjun's hand kept flowing into his hand, the joy in his heart would also diminish little by little.
Gradually there was a trace of hesitation in his bloodshot eyes, but when the dealer called him, he cheered up and wanted to get involved.
But as the card game progressed, it became more and more boring for him.
Before he noticed it, the seed in his heart had swallowed up the greed in his heart and solidified it.
When a card game ends, the seed sprouts, grows, grows, blooms, and transforms into a charming yellow flower in an instant and silently.
In an instant, the skinny old man looked at the card table in front of him and the pearl coins he had won, and felt a trance in his heart.
My mind has become clearer than ever before. From the first time I came into contact with gambling to the time I fell into it little by little, scenes unfolded before my eyes.
"Ouch..." In the surprised eyes of others, he suddenly burst into tears, his voice hoarse as if he had suddenly gone crazy.
Seeing that the dealer tried to persuade her for a while but to no avail, even using the Qingxin spell to make an exception had no effect.
I could only wink at the guards standing in the corner by the wall and ask them to drag him out so as not to disturb other guests.
He stood up and bowed to the people watching around him, saying, "Don't worry, I'm just very happy that I won a lot of money."
Then he showed the pearl coins in front of the old man, and took the opportunity to say to everyone: "Don't worry, if you continue to play in our gambling house, you can make a fortune like him."
Everyone believed it immediately when they saw it, and then their greed increased and their voices became a little louder.
Lingji quietly looked at the indifferent Wenjun, then suppressed his face to turn red, and followed the people next to him, rubbing his hands and shouting loudly.
Seeing that his words could boost the gambling shop's business, the banker secretly nodded happily.
While thinking about how much the big boss could give him this time, he found another person to take the old man's place and continue the game.
As for the old man, the two guards secretly closed his acupuncture points to make him stop crying, and then politely carried him out of the workshop.
I looked around and saw that no one was paying attention, so I found a remote location and threw it on the ground.
He touched all the beads and coins in his arms and looked at the old man who looked foolish and foolish after his orifices were sealed.
"It looks like it's really useless."
"It doesn't matter. His win this time is almost enough to repay the capital and interest."
"Forget it, our big boss doesn't like to cut people's bones, skin them and sell them. Besides, this is Xiaoyaofang, so just throw them here."
The two of them took the pearl coins and went back to recover, but the old man just stayed there in a daze for a long time.
Then he stood up silently, holding on to the wall, and glanced around, suddenly feeling that between the light and darkness, there seemed to be a vicious beast that eats people without spitting out bones and was secretly watching him.
He couldn't help trembling, and stumbled away from this street and Xiaoyaofang.
The moment he saw the sun, he closed his eyes subconsciously, put his head in his hands and squatted on the ground.
After a long time, when my body was hot from the sun, I stood up again and left without looking back.
At this moment, the charming yellow flower in his heart withered and dissipated in the blink of an eye, and part of it turned into a solid seed and was replanted in his heart.
Part of it turned into an illusory golden flower, floated back to Wenjun, circled half a circle and then disappeared.
At this time, Wenjun was only slightly distracted at the gambling table and didn't care.
She raised her head and glanced at Fairy Hibiscus, who had been devoured by her greed.
His eyes were clear and his aura was constantly changing subtly, but he still sat there playing cards and had no intention of leaving.
Then I looked at the scholar again, and his changes were much more obvious.
But what is different from the old man who won money is that most of his money was lost to Wenjun and Fairy Furong.
At first he felt very distressed, but later as the seeds grew, he felt nothing at all.
When the heart flower bloomed, he looked at the cards in his hand with boredom.
It was still on the table with a slap, and he said in a waning tone: "Forget it, I won't play anymore."
Then, regardless of the dealer's plea to stay, he stood up and left. Before leaving, he raised an eyebrow at Wenjun, walked out of the gambling house and walked straight to the hook on the side.
"Master Wen Xiang, you are here." A middle-aged woman with heavy makeup said coquettishly, with half of her body hanging on him.
"Are there any fresh ones this time? It's better to be tender. Master, I like this one today." The scholar named Mr. Wen Xiang touched it randomly with his hands and asked.
"Yes, yes, today I just bought a batch of boys from the Twin Kingdom from the Crystal Shop, specially reserved for the young master."
