Jerrys announced a break, and Zhu Tong was the last one to get up, go to the bar to get a glass of water, and walk onto the deck with it.
Only at sea can you see such a clear and bright starry sky.
The "Future Duke" swayed slightly in the waves, and the low hum of the waves could be heard on the deck. Everything above the sea was shrouded in darkness, with no navigation beacons or lighthouses; all the eyes were filled with twinkling stars. Standing here, in
In this dreamlike world, the stars seem to have merged with the sea.
"My name is Lan Zhanjiang." The gentleman walked up to Zhu Tong, shaking a glass of red wine in his hand.
"Oh, you can call me Ahao." Zhu Tong did not say his real name; since Lan Zhanjiang appeared here with Liu Yilan, he must know who he is.
A lot of people showed up at the gambling game, half of them from the Eight Sects of Jianghu, proving that the balloons released by Senior Brother did attract a lot of people. The more careful you are at this time, the Butterfly God is still awake, Zhu Tong also detected
It was unclear where the Snow Monk was hiding; however, Zhu Tong had a hunch that the Snow Monk must be on this ship.
"Mr. Lan seems to be out of shape and has lost a lot." Zhu Tong withdrew his eyes and stared at Lan Zhanjiang; he knew that he was facing a third-grade blue stone man, a big shot; but so what? Jianghu is worthless in his eyes.
.
"The gambling game is not over, and no one can say who wins or loses; luck doesn't always favor you, don't you lose too?" Lan Zhanjiang raised his glass slightly before taking a sip, his movements coordinated and elegant; "Today's winning or losing doesn't matter to me.
Being able to meet Ah Hao is the biggest reward for you."
Is he the person hiding behind Liu Yilan? Zhu Tong drank water and looked directly into the other person's eyes; however, there was not much content that could be seen from these eyes; Lan Zhanjiang was very calm.
A meteor passed by the bow of the boat, and both of them saw it. After the meteor passed, the stars still hung reservedly in the sky. Can't tell which one was missing?
"The beauty of death only lasts for a moment." Lan Zhanjiang sighed softly: "You cannot grasp this moment. It comes suddenly and disappears in an instant, leaving only a short brilliance."
"I don't believe in luck, I only believe in myself." There is something in Lan Zhanjiang's words, but Zhu Tong is pretending to be confused; if anything happens to the third-grade blue stone, he should talk to Senior Uncle Zhu Huang, or Second Senior Brother.
Lan Zhanjiang looked at him meaningfully: "Life is short, and no one is eternal; if you run too fast, you will definitely lose something; if you run slowly, you will miss the scenery ahead. If you are an ordinary person, missing and throwing away are both.
It's not a bad thing; if it's a shooting star, you have to know how to choose. Zhu Tong, women should be decorations to you, just like your CK, which is a good thing in the eyes of some people. Beyond this class, you will find that it is ordinary.
"Real luxury watches, like beautiful women, only serve the right people. It depends on whether you are qualified to use them."
"I don't quite understand what Mr. Lan means, and I don't want to understand. I'm just a gambler. I make money to support my family. I'm a little rich and have no extravagant hopes of pursuing glory." Zhu Tong clinked a glass with him and drank up the water in the glass; in the hall
Here, Jerrys returned to the gambling table, and the gambling started again.
Indeed, Lan Zhanjiang's words were a bit profound to Zhu Tong, what was he implying, but for the current Zhu Tong, they were of little interest.
"Be careful of Jiang Xiaoyu, he is here for your Ahao; and him." Lan Zhanjiang shook the wine glass in his hand and pointed at the mysterious middle-aged man; "There are rumors in the world that there is a treasure in Shanghai; there are many
People who have been hiding deeply have been exposed."
Zhu Tong nodded, he still knew what was good and he could feel Lan Zhanjiang's concern for him.
In the second quarter, Zhu Tong began to eliminate his opponents. What he was planning today was Zhao Yongbing, and he needed to invite people at the gambling table who might be on the same road as Zhao Yongbing to come out of the gambling table. The first target was the beauty named Xie Jing;
The previous stakes were about three million and he was another winner of the first session.
The little liar wants to use her to test the depth of everyone in the gambling game.
After five rounds, the opportunity finally appeared.
After Jerrys dealt the cards, Zhu Tong's hole card was the eight of hearts and the eight of clubs on his face, forming a pair. The one-armed pirate's face card was the king of spades. The hole card was not very big. Just now, he rubbed his thumb twice, which should mean
disappointment.
Xie Jing's trump card should be quite good. Her face card was just a seven of diamonds, but the ring finger of her left hand was curled into the palm of her hand. Zhu Tong judged that her bottom card was either an ace or a seven.
Zhao Yongbing was perhaps the only pure gambler in the game. This time, his face card was the biggest, the Ace of Spades, and he immediately called out 50,000. Zhu Tong judged that the card below him could not exceed ten, and it should be a fighting posture.
After three cards were dealt, Zhu Tong got an eight and a king. The one-armed captain and Lan Zhanjiang had passed, and Jiang Xiaoyu also deducted cards; the bets on the table accumulated to more than one million.
"Three hundred thousand." Xie Jing called.
"Follow, add 200,000 more." Zhu Tong shouted out the first big bet of the day; he popped a cigarette out of the cigarette case in front of him.
The waiter immediately came over and ordered it for him.
Zhu Tong took a deep breath and slowly exhaled the smoke.
"I'm timid." The middle-aged man has always gambled very freely and skillfully, and he never followed the big bets.
Zhao Yongbing took one look, gritted his teeth and wanted to follow, then thought about it and took away the cards; Zhu Tong knew without looking that Xie Jing had a hint below. She also got a pair, not a seven, but a king.
There were already three kings on the gaming table. Zhao Yongbing had a chance to get a flush. The moment he quit, Zhu Tong was sure that Xie Jing couldn't get three kings. He was sure to win this game. What he had to do now
It was to mobilize Xie Jing's courage.
"Beauty, do you want more?" Zhu Tong's eyes flashed with a provocative look, and he blew a smoke ring over.
"Hmph!" Xie Jing threw out two red chips without looking at Zhu Tong.
Jerrys dealt the cards again, Xie Jing had the jack of spades, and Zhu Tong had the queen of hearts.
"It's gone." Zhu Tong pushed out all the chips in front of him. He has been winning small numbers since this section. Now he has about two million. As long as Xie Jing keeps up, all the chips in front of her will be gone.
"Women are not suitable for gambling, they are too emotional; just like love, if you bet on someone today and you think you have won, maybe when the cards are drawn later, you will lose everything. Beauty, you will definitely lose this time, so you should stay.
Let’s save some money and go home and buy a necklace.”
As Zhu Tong said this, he blew out another smoke ring, which floated in front of Xie Jing's eyes.
Xie Jing stretched out her ivory-like hand and fanned it twice to disperse the smoke ring. The corners of her mouth tightened and she stubbornly pushed out the chips in front of her: "I don't believe it, you are a fool!"
"Ah, you are indeed a hero among women, I admire you." Zhu Tong pulled out his trump card, "But, I am exactly right. Beauty, I advise you not to be impulsive but you don't listen. Thank you."
Xie Jing's trump card was indeed seven. Of course, her two teams were no better than Zhu Tong's three. She stood up helplessly. When she exited the gambling game, her eyes were still a little confused: How could she be so impulsive? She fell in love with this person without even thinking about it.
Done.
Jiang Xiaoyu frowned, and Xie Jing seemed to have kicked him when he left. It seemed that the relationship between the two people was not shallow, and Xie Jing was blaming Jiang Xiaoyu for not helping him.
Zhu Tong glanced around and saw that the middle-aged man was also paying attention to Jiang Xiaoyu.
According to the old liar, winning money from a woman will bring bad luck.
Zhu Tong didn't believe this at first, but it turned out to be Shen Chang's low ebb period. He never encountered a suitable opportunity again and even lost some money.
At the end of the second quarter, Lan Zhanjiang lost all his chips. He was really not good at gambling like this. The winners were Zhu Tong and Jiang Xiaoyu.
Jiang Xiaoyu's gambling style is calm and fierce, but he is very careful and rarely makes big bets; in such a gambling situation, such a person is the most suitable.
The one-armed captain maintains a no-lose-no-win situation, and there are not many bets in front of Zhao Yongbing.
During the break, Zhu Tong ordered a glass of champagne and went to the deck to look at the stars. Shanshan came over and wanted to say something but Zhu Tong interrupted: "You just have to look."
Liu Yilan came to Zhu Tong and said softly: "You seem to be very sure of winning money, but I don't see how you can make Zhao Yongbing bankrupt in today's gambling game; although Dingran Starry Sky was smashed to pieces, it can still be saved."
It’s probably worth 30 to 50 million.”
"Sister Yilan, I'm not used to your behavior. I will definitely do what I promised. What you have to do is to give me an explanation, and secondly, think about how to deal with Zhao Yongbing. And Shanshan, persuade her
Calm down." Zhu Tong didn't look at Liu Yilan. Her current face was too charming, and with her hot figure, she looked very promiscuous.
"Are you that confident?"
"I need to be quiet. Sister Yilan is optimistic about Shanshan. This is her first time. Don't make any mistakes because of emotional impulsiveness or nervousness." Zhu Tong ignored Liu Yilan and looked up at the stars.
The little liar really needs to be quiet. Jiang Xiaoyu's hands have always been very stable. Zhu Tong has not seen any flaws in him until now. There are still eighteen rounds in the gambling game. It is easy to cut out the one-armed captain. It is easy to cut Jiang Xiaoyu out of the gambling round.
, it really requires a lot of luck.
But luck is always unpredictable. Who knows when it will rain on whom?
Liu Yilan and Shanshan went to the other side to talk in a low voice. The middle-aged man walked onto the deck. He had just come out of the bathroom and there were still water stains on his hands.
"You are lucky. You must be the winner tonight." The middle-aged man approached and said with a loud smile; the feminine aura on his body was diluted a lot. Strangely, the first thing Zhu Tong saw when he saw him was this.
impression.
"Sir, I didn't lose either. The ship is still on the sea. It's not certain who can hold on to the end." Zhu Tong paid attention to the opponent's hands. These hands moved a lot on the gambling table, but they couldn't be seen to match the cards in his hand.
what is the relationship.
"Today's gambling game is the strangest. There are only three people here for gambling, one is him and the other is me." The middle-aged man was referring to Zhao Yongbing.
Who was the other one? Zhu Tong didn't ask, he just smiled and said, "Sir, you're not here for gambling either."
The scenery on the sea is endless, and two more people walked out of the room. The originally spacious small deck seemed crowded.
The scent of fragrance blew up around me, and Xie Jing, who had been kicked off the gambling table, approached.
Next to her was a monk, an eminent monk, the kind of eminent monk whose age could not be discerned.
