Chapter 72: One Game Determines Victory or Defeat (Part 2)

  Genius, any normal person would not write that number. The people around Xiao Shouren saw the score written by Xiao Shouren with his brush, it's too impossible. What do you think Xiao Shouren wrote?

  36 points! 36 points! Is this possible?

  Impossible! Each dice bucket only has three dice, at most it can only roll out eighteen points, no matter how you shake it, you can't roll out thirty-six points.

  Is Xiao Shouren's mind unclear? Or is he intentionally losing?

  Everyone was unaware of what had happened to Xiao Shouren, but everyone burst out laughing without any surprise. This score is simply impossible!

  Standing next to Xiao Shouren, Qianqian was even more furious, gritting her teeth and wishing she could bite Xiao Shouren to pieces. If looks could kill, Xiao Shouren would have been dead N times already, without a place to be buried.

  Wei Jian Tong finished counting the points and heard laughter from beside him, thinking it was directed at himself. He was furious, wondering who dared to laugh at him, but when he turned around, everyone was laughing at Xiao Shou Ren, and his anger dissipated instantly.

  He tilted his head, took a glance, and saw that the white paper in front of Xiao Shouren actually had written on it. Even Wei Jian Tong couldn't help but burst out laughing at this point. On that chubby face, there were even two deep dimples, which looked like they would sink in and bloom into two concentrated cow dung flowers.

  "Xiao Shaoxia, you can't be that muddled from gambling, how could it possibly be 36 points? At most it's just 18 points. It seems what you said earlier about not understanding was the honest truth, you really don't understand! Xiao Shaoxia is indeed an honest man!" This dead fatty even started reciting "honesty is the best policy" in a pretentious tone.

  Xiao Shouren looked at Wei Jian Tong's detestable face but was not angry, his face still retained that smile that made people feel like they were taking a spring bath, and he didn't care about Wei Jian Tong's sarcasm, only lightly responding with one sentence.

  "In other people's formal casinos, something as bizarre as 36 points might not happen, but in Wei Lao's Wan Gui Casino, it's hard to say."

  This is a vicious statement! In various ways, it says that Wan Gui's gambling house is not a proper gambling house, irregular, and there are cheaters.

  Wei Jian Tong has become a cunning old fox, how could he not understand the implication of Xiao Shou Ren's words? He stared at Xiao Shou Ren with a face full of anger, unsure whether to scold or not, and didn't know how to end the situation well, finding it hard to calm down the resentment in his heart.

  "Alright, since both of you have written down the numbers in your minds, Mr. Wei has 9 points and Young Master Xiao has 36 points, let's lift the dice bucket together now! Who is correct? Are they both correct? Or are they both wrong? Once we lift it, everything will be clear." Guo Qian remained calm and didn't get angry at Xiao Shouren's veiled accusation of cheating, instead he calmly wanted to reveal the result.

  Kuo Chien stretched out both hands, grasped the dice bucket, and glanced at Hsiao Shou-jen and Wei Chien-tung with a thick smile on his face.

  Looking at the smile on Guo Qian's face, both Wei Jian Tong and Xiao Shou Ren felt a bit uncomfortable in their hearts. The two men were uncertain, but it was clear that Guo Qian had long understood the points of the dice under his hand, because he was the one who shook them out after all.

  The result was revealed at this moment, whether Xiao Shouren's score was correct or Wei Jian Tong's score was correct, it was revealed at this moment.

  At first glance, it seems that Wei Jian Tong has a much greater chance of winning because the points he gave out are reasonable and easy to accept. Xiao Shou Ren's points are like a fantasy, making it hard for people to imagine, so at this moment, everyone is more optimistic about Wei Jian Tong.

  Wei Jian Tong was secretly lamenting, he had basically confirmed that the two were evenly matched, and he hadn't even heard how many points there were, while Xiao Shou Ren's score was clearly incorrect, which could only mean it was a tie, unless...

  Unless Guo Qian helps himself!

  Kuo Qian's long hands finally lifted up, and the two black dice buckets followed his long hands to rise together, then the dice on the bottom plate appeared.

  Kuo Chien exerted a sudden force and the dice under the dice bucket suddenly appeared before everyone's eyes.

  "Ah!"

  "How is it possible?"

  "What's going on?"

  Cries of surprise, cries of surprise everywhere, no one dared to believe their eyes.

  Beyond expectation! It's really beyond expectation. Nobody expected such a scene, except for Xiao Shouren.

  On the bottom plate, those six dice are quietly displayed, and it is these six dice that determine the outcome of this game. Will Xiao Shouren win with a stroke of luck or will old gambler Wei Jian Tong emerge victorious?

  Those six dice clearly told everyone that Xiao Shouren won!

  Xiao Shouren won, and it's unbelievable.

  Wei Jian Tong chose the dice bucket below which was empty, while Xiao Shou Ren's chosen dice bucket had six neatly arranged dice underneath, each with six dots facing up, totaling thirty-six points, not one more or less.

  Against all expectations, no one had thought it would end like this. No one had expected that all six dice would run into a single dice cup. How was this possible?

  The answer is simple. Just now, Guo Qian threw the two dice cups onto the net when he was about to roll the dice, and it wasn't just once or twice, but three or four times, and very quickly, in the blink of an eye, between the flash of lightning and the rumble of thunder, it was already done. Nobody had a clear view of his technique and trajectory.

  But Xiao Shouren saw clearly, his eyesight was not ordinary, he saw at a glance that the dice had all entered a dice bucket in mid-air, no wonder he could shake both hands together!

  Originally, Guo Qian was also an ordinary person. He couldn't do the double-handed shake either, so he cheated and pretended to make a gesture of shaking hands with both hands, in order to mislead everyone.

  At the beginning, it was shaken in that chaotic way, and after completing the most critical step in mid-air, all the dice went into a dice bucket. At this point, as long as it's an experienced dealer, they can shake out all six points facing up.

  Eighteen is called leopard, what about thirty-six? Double-headed leopard!

  Fortunately, Xiao Shouren's mind is meticulous, otherwise he would have guessed it wrong too.

  "Congratulations, Xiao Gongzi, you guessed it right, you won!" Guo Qian said with a smile to Jingjing.

  It's too hypocritical, it's really too hypocritical. Although the mouth is congratulating Xiao Shouren on winning the bet, but it was said to Xuanxuan, which means only one thing: you won, fulfill your promise, 500 taels!

  Just as everyone had not reacted yet, only Xiao Shouren and Guo Qian understood what was going on, Guo Qian had already started asking Xuanxuan for the lucky money. It's really "eyes open when seeing money"! All officials in the world are the same!

  "How could this be? How could this be?" Wei Jian Tong muttered to himself in a daze.

  This feeling is unbearable. In the past, Wei Jian Tong always felt that he had spent most of his life at the gambling table, relying on it to make a living, get rich and raise a family.

  As his business grew bigger and his skills became more sophisticated, he had never lost a game. At the gambling table, it could be said that he was almost unbeatable.

  Wei Jian Tong often lamented before this loss that a master is lonely, and even more than once in front of his son and daughter: Du Gu (gambling ghost) seeks defeat, but seeks one defeat, the master is lonely, the enemy's hand is difficult to find, and it cannot be obtained in the end. Alas! Alas!

  He finally tasted the bitterness of defeat, although it had been many years since he last did. It was very painful and didn't make him excited or fill him with fighting spirit as he had imagined.

  "This round doesn't count, it's just a bet on big or small. You guessed 36 points and our boss Wei guessed 9 points, both of us guessed high, so it should be a tie." Zhu FuGui shouted from the side.

  "Oh? Brother Zhu is saying it again, we didn't quite catch it." Xiao Shouren leaned in and asked once more.

  "Let's just say, you guessed 36 points and Mr. Wei guessed 9 points. If we were to buy a note, both of us would have bought big. The result was indeed 36 points, which is big, so both of us should have won, both correct? I'm not sure if what I said is wrong." Zhu Fugui asked slyly.

  "That's right, Brother Zhu is absolutely right, we have nothing to say. If Boss Wei doesn't accept it and wants to gamble again, I'll accompany him just the same. We believe that Wan Gui Gambling House is not a gambling house that can't afford to lose. What do you think, Boss Wei?" Xiao Shouren himself didn't expect to be caught by Zhu Fugui's trick either.

  This time's gamble was clearly won by himself, but before the gamble, it was said to be a bet on big or small, and there was no clear statement that it was a bet on points. Even if there was, it was just a verbal mention, not something that could be counted on. If Wei Jian Tong wanted to cheat, he wouldn't have any way to stop him.

  It's unexpected that Zhu Fu Gui still has some quick wit, which is not surprising, in the Jianghu especially in these shady places of gambling dens, what kind of thing or situation haven't they seen? Without this little cleverness, how could they have survived until today and even risen to a high position.

  Wei Jian Tong's heart, which had been as dead as ashes after hearing Zhu Fu Gui and Xiao Shou Ren's words, suddenly came back to life, but it was only a faint spark, lacking the vigor of its former self.

  That's right. Wei Jian Tong discovered that he hadn't lost, and if he didn't admit it himself, no one else could make him do so. However, after hearing Xiao Shou Ren's words, he hesitated again.

  "I'd rather lose graciously, and if I lose, then so be it. Xiao Shao said it well - Wan Gui's gambling house isn't one that can't afford to lose, it's just that we lost a mysterious and inexplicable game. If even I, Wei Mouren, don't dare admit this, and instead try to cheat my way out of it, then that would be truly losing face. How could I, Wei Mouren, still show my face in public after that?" Wei Jian Tong suddenly understood the key point, so he spoke with a serious expression to Zhu Fu Gui.

  It's not that Wei Jian Tong really wanted to lose, but he knew that if he didn't admit defeat, the rumor that Wan Gui Betting House couldn't afford to pay would spread like wildfire through the streets and alleys of Yi County. At this point, it wouldn't just be about losing a bet, as Yi County was already in turmoil. A small incident could decide the direction of the entire situation. If such a thing really happened, it's likely that Wan Gui Betting House would be finished off by the Shan and Wang families tomorrow. So Wei Jian Tong decisively admitted defeat.

  "Boss Wei is a straightforward and pleasant person, unlike some people. Xiao Pei admires him!" Xiao Shouren had expected that Wei Jian Tong would concede, after all, he was an old man who had mixed for so many years, and should have this kind of vision, knowing what's important and what's not, when bitten by a venomous snake, one must cut off the wrist.
