In the evening, Ma Shan called and said that the stone gambling venue had been found. There was also news about the dog fighting ring in the south of the city, and he asked Li Muchen to meet him at the Blue Bridge Bar.
It was already past dinner time, and the restaurant was not busy at the moment. Li Muchen asked for leave from the proprietress, and told Ding Xiang to be careful when she went home at night, and hurried to the Blue Bridge Bar.
The bar was still busy, as if nothing happened last night.
Ma Shan took Li Muchen directly to the private room on the second floor.
"Mr. Li, welcome."
Zhou Na greeted her in the box charmingly and her tone was very respectful.
Li Muchen is a disciple of Tiandu and a disciple of Xianzun. Of course he can afford to be called sir, so he naturally replied:
"Mr. Zhou, you're welcome."
Zhou Na said: "I am just a bar owner, not a boss. My friends give me face and call me Sister Na. If you don't mind, you can also call me that, or just call me by my name."
Li Muchen said: "Okay, I will call you whatever Brother Mashan calls you."
Zhou Na smiled slightly, cut to the chase, and said, "I heard that you want to bet on stones?"
Li Muchen nodded.
Zhou Na reminded: "The water in this business is very deep. Just like any gambling, nine times out of ten you lose. Most stones, as long as they are wrapped in leather, will still turn out to be stones no matter how much you bought them."
She glanced at Li Muchen and said, "But, it's not like he didn't get rich. I heard that there was a man in southern Yunnan who had his eyes open and could see through the leather and into stones. He could see accurately at a glance. A few years ago, he was walking on the Myanmar-Vietnam border.
Later, good materials worth billions were released."
"Sister Na, this is too mysterious. Is there anyone who can really see through it?" Ma Shan thought it was impossible.
Li Muchen believed it was true.
It is very easy for a person who has opened his eyes to see through a stone.
The reason why he dared to gamble on stones was because he could also open his eyes.
Of course, opening the Heavenly Eye does not mean that you can see through it, as Mashan thinks. Because the Heavenly Eye uses not eyes, but spiritual consciousness. It is a perceptual ability unique to practitioners, or it can be called the "seventh sense."
.
"Don't believe it yet." Zhou Na said, "This matter is widely rumored in the circle. It can't be false. Several of my friends said they had met that person back then. But guess what, that person later
how's it going?"
"It's developed." Mashan said.
Zhou Na shook her head: "You are wrong. That person died later. He was hacked to death, his hands and feet were cut off, his eyes were gouged out, and his body was dumped in a ravine on the border."
Mashan took a breath of air: "So cruel!"
Li Muchen couldn't help but frown.
How could a person with open eyes be hacked to death so easily?
There are only two possibilities, either his heavenly eye is fake, or at most he has yin and yang eyes.
Or, the person who killed him was the best among masters.
"So, nine times out of ten you lose, and one of you dies. If you want to participate in stone betting, you have to think carefully." Zhou Na said.
Li Muchen said: "Thank you, Sister Na, for reminding me. We are just having fun."
Zhou Na nodded: "Okay, then you guys wait for me here, I have some things to take care of, and I will take you somewhere later."
After saying that, he went out.
Li Muchen frowned slightly, wondering in his mind why the stone betting venue was open at night?
Mashan began to tell him about the dog fighting ring in the south of the city.
"I have inquired more clearly. The place you mentioned does indeed have a dog farm. The owner is Cai Weimin, nicknamed Rutabaga. The people below call him Caitou. I heard that this man has a good background. His dog fighting place is very fierce.
The chips are big enough, and those who go are all regular customers, strangers need someone to guide them, and they must have 200,000 in cash to enter."
After Ma Shan finished speaking, he asked, "Mu Chen, how do you know that place?"
Li Muchen didn't hide anything, and told Lin Manqing about the gangster he met when he was sent back that day.
When Ma Shan heard this, he was furious: "Damn it, if these two boys fall into my hands, I will have to kill them."
He added, "Yesterday, Miss Lin pleaded for us in front of Uncle Ming. I heard it all. For this reason, we can't ignore her affairs. Brother, tell me, what should we do? How about I call someone to take care of her?"
His doghouse!"
Li Muchen said: "Don't be impulsive. Anyone who dares to attack Miss Lin is definitely not an ordinary person. Let's go to his dog farm first, touch his bottom, and make some money on the way."
Mashan nodded and said, "Okay, I'll listen to you."
"Do you have anyone who can take us in?" Li Muchen asked.
"Yes, do you remember Huang San?"
"Huang San?"
"The one who used to fight with us when we were kids."
Li Muchen remembered that there was such a person who also made a living by picking up garbage. In order to grab the territory, he often fought with Mashan.
What impressed him deeply was that Huang San couldn't defeat Ma Shan, so he took advantage of Ma Shan's absence to bully Ding Xiang.
In order to protect Ding Xiang, he risked his life to fight with Huang San. Finally, he used a handful of quicklime to blind Huang San, and then he pulled Ding Xiang away and escaped.
"What is this kid doing now?"
"He opened a scrap recycling station, but the business he did was not clean. He knew Caitou from the dog farm, and he often went there to play and would bring customers there."
"You beat him a lot when you were a kid. Will he believe you?"
Ma Shan chuckled: "He doesn't believe me, but he doesn't believe I'm a cop either."
Li Muchen also laughed and said, "Okay, that's him. Next, we have to find a way to get the 200,000 admission fee."
…
At around nine o'clock, Zhou Na called and asked them to go directly to the parking lot.
When they arrived at the parking lot, Zhou Na waved to them in a red Porsche.
Ma Shan and Li Muchen got into the car.
"Don't you ask me where I'm going?" Zhou Na asked while driving.
Mashan said: "Aren't you going to a place where you can gamble on stones?"
Li Muchen said nothing.
Zhou Na glanced at Li Muchen from the rearview mirror and saw that he was leaning on his seat with his eyes closed to relax, and asked, "Mr. Li, don't you want to know?"
Li Muchen said: "You will naturally say what you need to say. You don't want us to know. There is no point in asking."
Zhou Na smiled and stopped showing off.
"You must be curious, why does the stone betting place open at night? In fact, this is not just a stone betting place. If you really want to bet on stones, you have to go to southern Yunnan, or even cross the border. It's just a small game here, and for a few years
You can’t get a piece of good stuff either. But the place I took you to today is different, because there are many will-o’-the-wisps that cannot be seen, so it can only be opened at night.”
"It can't be all the things that the upper class plays, then we can't afford it." Mashan remembered that he only had 10,000 yuan in cash in his pocket, which was all his belongings.
"That's not true. The people who come to the place are very mixed. They come from all walks of life, including tomb robbers. But don't worry, these people are all regular customers. New customers need to be led by acquaintances. If something goes wrong, the introducer will be held responsible.
In terms of money, you don’t have to worry, there are cheap ones out there, and gambling on stones is a word of gambling. If you really want something good, but don’t have enough money, you can come to me."
Zhou Na introduced it enthusiastically.
Li Muchen suddenly asked: "Is this Uncle Ming's place?"
