Chapter 15 Gone with the Wind · Chapter 2

Seeing the master approaching, Zhao Hao hurriedly took a step forward and said: "Master, this disciple is going to teach him a lesson." Li Qiang waved his hand and said, "No need." With a little real strength, he was pumping on the big man's back, "snap", the clothes on the big man's back immediately shattered into pieces and fell all over the place. With a scream of "Aww", the force of gravity brought by the whip forced him to climb down, still muttering curses in his mouth.Li Qiang pinched his neck and lifted him from the ground: "Which casino do you belong to? Take me to see your boss." Everyone exclaimed, and the big man next to him was holding an eight-inch bayonet in his hand. He stabbed at Li Qiang fiercely.

Li Qiang ignored his bayonet at all, and pinched his neck with his other hand.The big man was terrified in his heart, the bayonet in his hand seemed to be poking on the iron plate and copper brick, and the big hand on his neck squeezed him out of breath, and he passed out as soon as his eyes darkened. "When", the bayonet fell to the ground. Zhao Hao reminded: "Master, they passed out." Li Qiang said in his heart: "I'm not working hard, why is it so bad." He hurriedly let go.Li Qiang asked the middle-aged man, "Which casino did you lose yourself in?" The man stammered in fright, "Yes, it's Baolai Casino." Cheng Zizhong whispered: "My lord, Baolai Casino With Li Tang’s background, the situation is more complicated.”

Li Qiang nodded and smiled, "Are you interested in taking a gamble?" Cheng Zizhong and Zhao Hao will never object to Li Qiang's decision, Zheng Peng is fresh everywhere, and Mei Jingjing is just looking for trouble.Everyone unanimously agreed to play in the casino.Zheng Peng carried two big men in each hand, and the middle-aged man led the way to the casino. Baolai Casino is one of the four major casinos in the capital, and the general background for opening a casino in the capital is not simple. The owner of Baolai Casino is very mysterious, and few people have seen him. There is a man named Du Dingguang hosting the scene. This man is said to be a well-known master in the gambling industry.On the way, Cheng Zizhong introduced some situations to Li Qiang. He was not a patrol envoy for nothing.

When he came to the gate of the casino, Li Qiang motioned Zheng Peng to lift up the two men, grabbed the small gong and knocked it open, shouting: "Look at it, look at it, live people are sold at a big discount, fresh two big men , it only costs a penny, buy one and get one free, you don’t need money if you die!" Mei Jingjing laughed and said, "Brother, you are really amazing, you can say one thing about selling things, you seem to be very experienced. " Li Qiang thought to himself, what's so great about this, the small vendors on the street in our place are much better than me, but I sell people, they sell pantyhose, they are all inferior products anyway.Cheng Zizhong and Zhao Hao looked at each other and smiled, they put their hands together to watch the excitement.The middle-aged man trembled with fear.

There was chaos at the entrance, a group of thugs poured out of the casino, and the leader with a beard clasped his fists and said, "This friend invited me, I don't know how my two brothers offended you?" Turning to see the middle-aged man, he suddenly realized: "Old Qi Two, you fucking dare to find someone to play games, you are impatient." Qi Lao Er was so frightened that he waved his hands again and again, and said fearfully, "I didn't look for it, I didn't look for it!" The bearded man said: "I would like to bet and accept the loss. Qi Lao Er himself lost, and he can't blame others for selling him back."

Li Qiang said with a chuckle: "Go away, what about Qi Lao Er and Qi Lao San, don't hinder me from doing business, I finally found these two treasures, sold them at a good price, I can gamble, maybe I can make a fortune. You bastard, don’t blah blah blah blah blah in front of me, and influence me to betray you!” Zhao Hao laughed secretly, the tone of the master imitating the sage king was exactly the same. The bearded man had never seen such an arrogant person before, and he scolded angrily: "Good you little dog, you don't know how high the sky and the earth are..." Before he finished speaking, he was whipped with a "crack", and the whip was whipped accurately On the mouth, a row of neat upper teeth suddenly collapsed into pieces.He greeted his subordinates vaguely, pointed at Li Qiang and the others whimpered, "Beat... kill... bah... my teeth! Go up and beat them all!"

All the thugs rushed forward, Li Qiang said with a smile: "As long as you hand over the claws to me, they will all be knocked unconscious, don't beat them to death, dead people are worthless!" Zhao Hao said with a smile: "Master, don't worry, none of them will die. Heizi, loosen your muscles and bones together!" Zheng Peng laughed loudly and said, "Haha, there is also a fight here, look at my fist!" As far as these thugs guarding the courtyard, there are still two skills, but the unlucky thing is that when they meet Zhao Hao, a master of martial arts and a newcomer in the cultivation world, they can't touch others at all. He shuttles between the thugs like a dragon, pointing It is extremely fast to fight east and west.Zheng Peng hit very simply, he was forceful, he grabbed one with his left hand and the other with his right hand, picked up the two heads and bumped each other, threw them away and grabbed them again.In just a few moments, the ground was full of thugs, all groaning for help.

Finally, a few people came out of the gate. The leader is an old man in his sixties, with a bald head and no beard, his face is pale as if he has not seen the sun all year round, his forehead is deeply wrinkled, and his face is bitter. Behind him are several middle-aged men in blue shirts.Cheng Zizhong whispered, "He is Du Dingguang." Li Qiang didn't even look at him, he continued to knock on the small gong and said, "It's selling! Well, how many are there now? Niuniu help count." Mei Jingjing was so happy, she counted the thugs lying on the ground one by one , giggled and said: "There are twenty-one, plus the first two, a total of twenty-three."

"How much silver, I bought it." Du Dingguang said darkly. Li Qiang was secretly startled, seeing his calm and composed appearance, he knew that he was a difficult guy.Li Qiang wanted to annoy him, and said with a smile: "This kind of crap is cheap, one hundred taels of silver, if you want all of them, I will give you a discounted price, two thousand taels of silver, I'm selling it!" The person behind Du Dingguang couldn't help but was about to speak, Du Dingguang waved his hand to stop him, and said sullenly, "Are you coming in to gamble, or leave with the money." Li Qiang was even more vigilant, this person was too dark.He said calmly, "That's right, I met a big customer today, and all these junks have been sold out, I must be lucky, I have to gamble on anything, haha!"

Du Dingguang signaled with his eyes, and a person beside him rushed away.He turned sideways and made a gesture of invitation, and Li Qiang and his party entered the casino.Seeing that the crowd was not paying attention, Qi Lao Er quietly retreated behind the crowd, turned around and ran away. The inside of the gambling hall is not the smoky atmosphere that Li Qiang imagined. Since the casino hall is large and the air is circulated, it does not feel stuffy after entering.A casino clerk came over and put a lot of chips on a tray. He smiled charmingly and said, "Master, are you playing in the lobby, or in the inner hall?" Zheng Peng stepped forward to take the tray.

Cheng Zizhong explained: "The hall is the place where bitter people play, and only rich people can enter the inner hall to have fun." Li Qiang laughed and said, "Okay, I am a rich man now. Haha, two thousand taels of silver is enough to gamble for a while Now, everyone go into the inner hall." Standing behind Du Dingguang, he rubbed his hands nonchalantly, stopping the impulsive subordinates beside him. The buddy led everyone into the inner hall. The inner hall is magnificently furnished, and the young maids shuttle through it, and there are many screen partitions to divide the space. Du Dingguang said indifferently: "What do the guests want to play? Pai Gow, Shuanglu, dice, as long as the guests propose, the hotel will definitely satisfy." Li Qiang was a little dumbfounded. After thinking about it, it seems that throwing dice can be played for fun, and said with a smile: "I just play dice, where do I play? Lead the way." A trace of disdain flashed in Du Dingguang's eyes, he turned around and led everyone to a big table.There were six luxuriously dressed rich men sitting at the table, and they were all gazing at Bao Guan. Bao Guan pressed the dice cup and shouted: "Down! Down! Down!" Everyone shouted: "Open! Open! Open!" When Bao Guan opened the dice cup, some people were happy and some were sad. Du Dingguang waved Bao Guan away, stood at the position where the dice was rolled, and said, "I'll serve all the guests." Those six rich people are probably regular customers here, and they are very familiar with Du Dingguang. A middle-aged man in a dark green gown said: "Boss Du, why do you want to perform the knife yourself? My little brother dare not play with you!" Du Dingguangpi Smiling but not laughing, he said, "I'm here to play with those guests." Everyone turned their heads together to see who could get Boss Du from the casino to make a move. "Hey, isn't this Mr. Zhao from the Baoyin Jewelry and Gold Tower? Hey, why are you so young after not seeing you for two years?" said a burly man.Zhao Hao said with a smile: "Chen Juyu, it's you. You don't work in the bodyguard bureau and come here to gamble. I'm not afraid that your wife will punish you." Chen Juyu smiled awkwardly: "She dares, if she doesn't obey, I will beat her up!" Du Dingguang was startled, he knew that Zhao Hao was a famous master, but he still kept his face on the surface: "How do you want to play, listen to your instructions." He thought: Let's play slowly. Li Qiang remembered watching a movie about gambling when he was on earth, and thought to himself: "I can't play with too complicated ones. Fortunately, I have a foundation in cultivation. I will play cool games with him and scare him to death." Thinking about it, he couldn't help but feel complacent. Hehe giggled out loud. "Is it true that I can gamble as I say?" Li Qiang deliberately did not look at Du Dingguang. Although Du Dingguang had no expression on his face, he was furious in his heart, and said: "You are welcome! As long as the guest can tell you, I will definitely accompany you." Li Qiang said secretly in his heart: "I will compare your size with you. Each person has a dice cup. Six dice, see who rolls the highest number of dice, and whoever wins, usually the big one is a tie, or the smaller one, how about it?" The people around were "tsk tsk" in amazement, this is the first time they have seen such a dice bet. Du Dingguang has studied gambling all his life, and this is the first time he heard of this kind of gambling. His eyes lit up and he said, "Okay, it's up to you, let's get bigger." The guy fetched the dice cup and dice and put them on the table.The gamblers around heard that Boss Du of the casino was going to play dice with a young man in person, so they gathered together. After checking the dice, Li Qiang said with a smile: "It's up to you, you go first." Du Dingguang was too lazy to speak, picked up the dice cup, shook it a few times, put it down gently, and said, "Please!" Li Qiang got excited, first threw the dice into the air one by one, controlled the falling force of the dice with his true energy, picked up the dice cup with his right hand, shook the dice cup left and right, chased and put the dice in one by one, and then Start shaking rapidly.Li Qiang wanted to play tricks, and the dice cup was spinning in his hands so that people were dazzled, and finally threw it high, "Ping", and the dice cup was buckled on the table. Everyone was very surprised, this was so beautifully played, many people couldn't help cheering.Du Dingguang was also very surprised. After so many years in the casino, it was the first time he saw such a game, and he couldn't help feeling alert. Baoguan next to him said: "Please place your bets, bet on the left if Boss Du wins, bet on the right if the master wins." Du Dingguang said: "How much to bet? You bet." Li Qiang said with a playful smile, "How can I pay if I win?" Du Dingguang was really going to piss him off. Furious, he gritted his teeth and said, "One pays one, do you want one to pay two?" Finally stoking his anger, Li Qiang happily thought: Well, it's best if you don't calm down, then lose first halfway through.Li Qiang teased him: "I want to pay two for one, are you willing? Haha!" Du Dingguang's blood rushed to his head, and his pale face turned red instantly.Mei Jingjing clapped her hands and laughed, "Hey, he's shy!" Everyone roared with laughter.Du Dingguang was so angry that his hands were shaking, he thought to himself: "Little bastard, you are too much of a bully, I don't believe it, I can't win you with my gambling skills." Suddenly he was in a mess, and impulsively said: "Okay, I will pay you two, you first Open the cup." Li Qiang put down the two thousand taels of chips and said with a smile, "Can jewelry bet?" He took out four night pearls the size of quail eggs and placed them on the chips.Everyone was stunned, how much money would this cost.Zhao Hao said: "This kind of luminous pearl is worth at least 25,000 taels of silver." Du Dingguang said: "You are so ruthless!" Li Qiang pointed to a maid and said, "You come to open the cup." The maid opened the dice cup tremblingly.Everyone was in an uproar, and saw that the six dice were arranged in a five-star shape, all six were at six points, the middle one was split in half, like a knife cut, and there was a little extra in the middle.Du Ding's face was ashen, and he said bitterly: "You won." Du Dingguang is also six points per grain, but he insists on a little more, how can this compare. "Papa", someone applauded: "It's so majestic, so powerful, so wonderful, it's beautiful to win! Beautiful!" I saw a group of people walking in from outside the door, and the leader who applauded was a military general wearing a third-rank official uniform.Cheng Zizhong bowed his head and said softly: "He is Peng Yongnian, the prefect officer of the Imperial Army." Everyone was silent at once, Li Qiang thought to himself, this person must be the tyrant of this place. A gleam of joy appeared on Du Dingguang's face. Peng Yongnian approached the table, picked up a luminous pearl and said, "Where did this luminous pearl come from? It seems that someone recently reported to the police that a batch of jewelry was stolen." He turned his head and asked his subordinates, "Is there such a thing?" Ah?" A soldier on the side said: "My lord, there is this matter. Among the jewels reported lost by the sufferer, there are four luminous pearls." Li Qiang was very interested to see how he performed, it was really fun.Cheng Zizhong secretly sweated for Peng Yongnian, thinking: "You are really asking for a dead end, who is not easy to provoke, go and provoke Li Qiang. If you want to covet other people's things, you have to figure it out before you covet." Mei Jingjing looked When Peng Yongnian blatantly accused them of robbing people of jewelry, he became very angry, and Yingwen whipped out with a flick of his whip. As soon as Peng Yongnian picked up the four night pearls, Mei Jingjing's shadow pattern whip arrived.He is also worthy of being the provost, and he has great skills. After shrinking his body slightly, he tapped the corner of the table with his wrist facing inward, deftly avoiding the whip.The whip actually pulled a crack out of the table.Mei Jingjing exclaimed, "Hiding pretty fast, okay, look at the whip!" Li Qiang stretched out his hand to stop him, he knew that Niu Niu was going to tie him up with the shadow of the whip, but he hadn't seen enough of the show, how could he not let him move. "Wow, this little girl is so aggressive that she even dares to hit her official. The world has changed, and the little girl is so aggressive. Come, take these suspects away." All the soldiers rushed forward.An invisible strength radiated from Li Qiang's body. Almost all the people couldn't stand and backed away again and again, only Zhao Hao, Peng Yongnian, Du Dingguang and Mei Jingjing could barely move.Li Qiang was overjoyed that the practice sitting posture in the Yutong Jane given by Hou Pijing actually had this effect.Peng Yongnian looked embarrassed, and said: "Good boy, you dare to resist arrest. Come on, pass on my words, surround the casino, and invite the masters of the worship hall to come over." Peng Yongnian already understood that Li Qiang was a cultivator. "Yes!" Some soldiers hurried out.There was a commotion in the casino, and it was too late to leave. Li Qiang smiled unhurriedly and said: "Don't panic, report the letter slowly, I haven't had enough fun yet. Hey, Du Dingguang, your name is not well chosen, Dingguang... Dingguang...haha, you must lose everything! "Mei Jingjing laughed and said: "Brother, he hasn't lost money yet, how much should he pay? You pay two for one, you should pay - two hundred and four thousand taels of silver!" Seeing what they were talking about without anyone else, Peng Yongnian felt a little terrified.Having been in the officialdom for many years, the seriousness of the matter can still be seen. These people are either fools, or they have high status, and they are not afraid of him at all.He thought about it carefully, and he had never seen or heard of these people, so he was a little embarrassed. Peng Yongnian had an ominous premonition, and hurriedly asked, "Hey, boy, what do you do, who are your parents? Tell me so you don't mistake yourself." Cheng Zizhong sighed in his heart, he wasn't too stupid, he knew something was wrong , but people will eat you, of course they will ignore you. Du Dingguang couldn't bear it anymore, walked up to Peng Yongnian, and whispered something in his ear.Peng Yongnian was relieved, but he was the head of a silver house, and the background of this group of people would not be too high, and the head of the silver house must be very rich, so he dug a gold mine.Thinking of this, he laughed happily, and said, "I think you'd better arrest them without a fight, it's useless to resist, and you'll be fine if you explain clearly at the Yamen, haha." Li Qiang found it funny when he heard him talking to himself, and said to the people around him: "Hey, have you heard that I always hear a bug buzzing around my ear, it's really annoying!" Looking at Peng Yongnian, he asked, "Were you the one talking just now?" Everyone thought that this young man didn't use dirty words when swearing, which is really amazing. Peng Yongnian almost lost his mind, trembling and said: "Okay, okay, well said, let's wait and see." He didn't dare to swear, and he couldn't figure out why this person dared to be so bold. There was a soldier's report, and four worshipers came to the worship hall. Li Qiang asked Cheng Zizhong in a low voice: "The worship hall will also take care of this kind of thing?" Cheng Zizhong shook his head slowly, he could hear Li Qiang's implication, if the worship hall took care of such bad things, what is the difference from the thugs in the nursing home. Looking at Peng Yongnian's complacent expression, he nodded and bowed to meet the four of them, and said with a coquettish smile: "Old gods, I have encountered a few things that don't have long eyes, so I have to ask the old gods to help me solve these things. Arrogant and ignorant guy. Hehe, please!" The four people who came didn't wear official uniforms, and they couldn't tell their ranks, and they all looked arrogant. Cheng Zizhong felt that the matter would become a big mess if he continued, so he hurriedly walked to the head priest, whispered in his ear, took out something from his cuff and gave him a look, then turned and went back behind Li Qiang.Peng Yongnian and Du Dingguang felt cold, and felt bad. I saw the four priests gathered together, discussing in a low voice, then turned around and came to Li Qiang, saluted: "I see General Huwei. I don't know that the general is here. I have offended you so much. Please forgive me, General Huwei!" The four of them were really grateful to Cheng Zizhong, if he hadn't reminded them, today's disaster would have been a big disaster.Li Qiang's official status is second to none, what is terrible is his identity, he is the brother of the Holy King, whoever wants to touch the brother of the Holy King in the old Song Dynasty, it really corresponds to an old saying: a mouse licking a cat is better than... court death! Peng Yongnian only felt a chill rushing from the soles of his feet to his forehead, his hands and feet were cold, and his limbs were numb. He knew who these people were.
