After a while, Li Mo entered the inner hall and saw a large pile of yak bones.
At first glance, most of these yak bones are carefully selected leg bones. The width, narrowness and thickness are perfect for mahjong seal carving.
"Take two more carving knives!"
Li Mo said after picking up a big bone and weighing it.
Carving bones may be very difficult for ordinary people, but for a sixth-level warrior, it is as simple as peeling a carrot. You can carve whatever you want with one slash.
"Yes, my lord!"
When Zhu Cang got the carving knife, Li Mo took the carving knife and mobilized his internal power to demonstrate on the spot.
"Like this... first cut the bone into one-inch squares, and then flatten the surface..."
Looking at his master's smooth operation, Zhu Cang was shocked again. He didn't know that Li Taibai taught Li Mo his skills and thought it was Li Mo's strength. For a while, he became more and more in awe of Li Mo.
soon,
One line, two barrels...thirty thousand...red, white boards, etc. appeared on the table one by one.
Half an hour later, all 136 mahjong pieces were ready.
In order to distinguish it, Li Mo also found cinnabar, indigo and other pigments, applied and polished it several times, and finally completed a pair of mahjong that was almost the same as modern ones.
Even the mahjong made with yak bones is more smooth and has the feeling of a work of art.
Then, Li Mo got two more dice.
"Lord, is this a magical weapon used by Taoist priests?"
Just when the dice was about to be made, Zhu Cang could no longer hold back and asked doubtfully.
It's bone... it's cinnabar, and it's engraved with all kinds of weird patterns and words. It's really similar to those Miao magic weapons. Could it be that this domino is used to change the destiny of the gambling house against the will of heaven? business?
If that's the case, why bother your lord and just go to the Taoist temple to hire a Taoist priest?
"It's not a magic weapon! I'll teach you how to play it later!"
Li Mo couldn't help but smile.
"Play? Can this be played?"
Zhu Cang stared, and the next moment he picked up a piece of Jiutong and touched it.
"By the way, Xiaohai and the others are back?"
Li Mo didn't explain any more. Only after letting them practice it can he make a judgment on the game of mahjong.
"My lord, Xiao Langjun and Lao Du returned to the gambling house half an hour ago, and Xiao Man has already fallen asleep."
"Okay, go and call Xiao Hai, Lao Du and the others."
Li Mo looked at a square table in the distance, which could fit four people.
Although Lao Du is old, he can play as long as his eyesight is not blurry, and if he doesn't have Lao Du, he will be missing one of the three.
"Yes, lord."
........
that's all,
After half a stick of incense was prepared, except for Li Mo, the other three people looked at the dominoes on the table with confused faces, at a loss.
Especially Lao Du, who had changed into clean clothes and kept touching his chin, looked like an old scholar in a private school, which was completely different from his image during the day.
"Lang Jun, can this really be played?"
"You can play. Next, I will tell you the rules. First roll the dice. This time I throw...seven o'clock...seven pairs of doors, then I will throw it again from the opposite side..."
Li Mo didn't talk nonsense and started to teach the three people how to play mahjong.
"Look...three of them together, if you try to shoot nine rounds, I'll be fooled..."
"Four is a stick!"
"By the way, you're just touching yourself."
"Thirteen units are one and nine plus the southeast, northwest, and middle."
"One color, double it!"
"This is the fourth great joy."
"If you were playing with money, you would lose more than two taels this time."
...
Half an hour later, the interest in the eyes of Zhao Hai and Zhu Cang became more and more interesting, and sometimes they would point to their cards and ask,
"Lang Jun, I must be considered a fool."
"Yeah! That's nonsense."
Another half hour passed,
Zhao Hai and Zhu Cang were already able to eat, touch and point skillfully, but Lao Du opposite was still frowning and thinking about something.
In the blink of an eye, another hour passed,
Lao Du finally raised his head and said quietly, "Lang Jun, how about we spend some money!"
As soon as this statement came out,
Li Mo and the other three were stunned for a moment.
Lao Du hadn't been able to speak much just now. They thought he hadn't learned at all, but now he actually asked for money.
"Lao Du, have you really learned it?"
After coming back to his senses, Zhao Hai couldn't help but ask.
"Um!"
"But where did you get the money?"
Zhu Cang raised his eyebrows.
This guy was begging for food this morning, so he probably doesn't have any money.
"I have twenty coins here, which was given to me by a great benefactor from before...According to Lang Jun, twenty coins should be enough to play one round."
Lao Du grinned and actually pulled out dozens of smelly meat from the soles of his feet.
"you...."
"Forget it, just do what Lao Du said, play it once, practice it, and you will have to teach other guests tomorrow..."
Li Moduo glanced at Lao Du.
I don't know why, but ever since Lao Du got on the carriage, I felt that his speech and conversation were definitely not that of an honest and honest farmer. But I couldn't pinpoint the specific problem. The only thing that was certain was that he was very kind at heart and had no bad intentions.
"Then just follow what Lang Jun said, Lao Du, don't regret it if you lose!"
"rest assured!"
"I'll take the throne first."
.......
The bright moon is high and the breeze is blowing. At midnight, the lights in the back hall of Qingfeng Gambling House are still not extinguished. From time to time, you can still hear the sound of Lao Du laughing.
"It's all nonsense... it's all nonsense... it's all the same"
"Mr. Lang, you should give me fifty cents for this..."
"Xiaohai, you can't cheat as a person, integrity is the most important thing!"
"Xiao Zhu, it was you who ordered the cannon just now!"
This state lasted until the ugly time,
Look at the inner hall again,
Several ingots of silver were already placed in front of Lao Du, while Zhao Hai and Zhu Cang had sad faces, which was in sharp contrast to the excited Lao Du.
"Mr. Lang...why don't we stop playing today..."
Finally, when Li Mo pushed the card in front, Zhao Hai began to whisper.
"Play? Why don't you play anymore? This is the most fun thing I have encountered in many years, bar none!"
Lao Du had very good ears and heard Zhao Hai's words clearly.
"Well...Old Du, why don't you stop playing...I'm afraid you won't be able to bear it after a long time."
After a brief pause, Li Mo counted the time and said.
"Can't you bear it? I can bear it for another three days and three nights, and there will be no problem."
Upon hearing it,
Old Du waved his hands repeatedly, obviously not satisfied yet.
"But... Lao Du... If you want to play with those guests tomorrow, can you go and play with them? I've already lost so much money."
Zhu Cang rubbed his eyebrows helplessly.
By the way, this mahjong is indeed a very fun thing, but it is not a problem to lose money all the time. This guy Lao Du is really... I thought he couldn't do it before, but I didn't expect that his luck was so cruel.
If you are either messing around or touching yourself, who can bear it?
"You have lost all your money? It's easy! I can lend it to you first, and you can return it to me later."
Lao Du chuckled, showing a set of fairly neat white teeth.
