Weird Cultivation, I have a five-organ temple

Chapter 239 Raising a little ghost?
The police took Shang Lu to four or five gambling dens, but did not see Zhao Qi.

I searched again but to no avail.

Suddenly, I heard a few gamblers whispering together.

"Hurry up and go to Ruyifang. There's someone playing dice there. His luck is so good. Let's follow him and buy. We'll definitely win."

Shang Lu had an idea and called the police to follow these gamblers all the way to Ruyifang in the east of the city.

This gambling house is quite large, and there are a few strong men standing at the door to watch over the place.

At this moment, the burly man guarding the door kept looking into the gambling house, as if something inside attracted their attention.

As they entered the gambling house, Shang Lu and his friends immediately heard an arrogant voice.

"I'm betting on three ones this time. If you want to win, follow me!"

There were many people around the gambling table, but many of them were bending over and placing bets on the table at this moment. Only a few people were standing upright.

The officer immediately spotted the person who was speaking and hurriedly reported in a low voice:

"Sir, the person who spoke is Zhao Qi."

Shang Lu nodded slightly and looked Zhao Qi up and down.

Zhao Qi looks very ordinary, but his face is covered with a layer of red glow, giving people a feeling of being rosy-cheeked and having good luck.

However, Shang Lu's eyes were blessed by the liver god, and he saw some things that others could not see.

The red glow on Zhao Qi's face was completely abnormal and had a fake feel to it.

His body and energy also revealed a feeling of external yang deficiency.

To put it simply, Zhao Qi seemed to be full of energy and in great luck, but all this was an illusion.

His luck and energy had long been exhausted.

He maintained this false good fortune by stealing other people's luck.

However, using sorcery is like drinking poison to quench thirst.

The more Zhao Qi uses his evil magic, the deeper he will be trapped, and the more severe the backlash will be.

There is one thing that Shanglu is also confused about.

Judging from Zhao Qi's condition, he should have suffered the backlash of the evil magic, gone mad, or even turned into a monster.

But he was intact.

Not to mention, just now in the house in Mingyue Lane, he broke the magic of exorcism that he had set up. Logically, he should have suffered the backlash and been hurt.

But he didn't react at all and was still gambling happily.

Either it was some kind of warding off evil by breaking tiles or cutting saws, which had nothing to do with Zhao Qi.

Or maybe there are some other treasures or secrets hidden on Zhao Qi.

"My Lord, I will go and call him."

The officer said as he was about to call Zhao Qi.

"and many more."

Shang Lu stretched out his hand to stop the officer.

"Let's see how he won this time."

The officer replied yes.

At this time, he also heard the discussions of the people in Ruyifang and knew that Zhao Qi had won more than ten consecutive bets before this.

The officer couldn't help but feel excited.

If you want to buy from Zhao Qi, Shang Lu, your superior, is next to you.

Shang Lu noticed the reaction of the officer and whispered, "Zhao Qi will definitely win this time, but it's hard to say whether he can get the money. If you want to buy it, you have to be mentally prepared."

The officer was stunned for a moment, then he noticed that many thugs hired by the casino had surrounded the gambling table.

So I immediately understood what Shang Lu meant.

Following the dealer's shout of "Buy now," the dice cup was opened amid the urging of the crowd.

There are really three ones inside.

The dealer turned pale, but the gamblers cheered.

At this moment, they regarded Zhao Qi as the God of Gamblers, saying that he had good luck and good gambling skills. Shang Lu keenly noticed that there was a trace of evil spirit hidden in the dice cup!
When the dealer revealed the secret, he used cheating tricks to tamper with the dice inside.

But there was a ghost hand that quickly changed the dice in the cup into three ones after he made some moves.

This moment happened extremely quickly.

As the dice cup was opened, the ghost hand disappeared, and none of the dealers and gamblers around it noticed it.

"Well, I didn't lie to you, did I? Whatever I said I would buy, I would get it!"

Zhao Qi laughed triumphantly and was about to reach out to grab all the money he had won in front of him.

But as soon as he stretched out his hand, he was grabbed by two strong men, one on the left and one on the right.

"Who are you? What do you want to do?" Zhao Qi struggled and shouted.

The two strong men held him down and said in a fierce voice, "What are you doing? Humph, you are cheating in our place. You are simply asking for death! We are going to chop off your hands and teach you a lesson!"

Zhao Qi screamed, "Why do you say I'm cheating? Do you have any evidence? Just because I'm lucky and win the money, does that mean I'm cheating? Then when we come to play with you, we can only lose to you, right?"

The gamblers around who had won money with Zhao Qi also followed Zhao Qi to make a noise.

It’s not that these gamblers have a very good relationship with Zhao Qi, but they often lose money in the gambling house on weekdays. Today they finally won with Zhao Qi and want to continue winning.

As for whether Zhao Qi’s hands would be chopped off, they didn’t care.

The gambling house's court attendant walked up to Zhao Qi and said coldly, "Do you really think that no one can tell that you have a little ghost?"

Zhao Qi still insisted: "What little devil? I don't know what you are talking about!"

The gambling house's chief clerk snorted coldly, perhaps because he saw that Zhao Qi had some strange abilities, and wanted to give him a chance, he did not cut off his hands, but ordered his men to throw him out.

"Don't come to our gambling house anymore, or I'll chop off your hands! Get out of here now!"

Zhao Qi rolled on the ground twice, and after getting up, he cursed and swore with gnashing teeth:

"How dare you treat me like this? Do you know who I am? Do you know what I am capable of? Just wait, I will make sure that your gambling den will not be able to continue operating! I will make all of you lose your families!"

Although he was furious, he did not dare to enter Ruyifang again. He turned around and was about to leave, cursing.

Shang Lu followed Zhao Qi out of Ruyifang as soon as Zhao Qi was thrown out.

Seeing him about to leave, he immediately shouted, "Zhao Qi!"

Zhao Qi turned around when he heard this, and after seeing Shang Lu, he frowned and asked, "Who the hell are you? Do I know you?"

The officer who followed him out shouted, "How dare you! This is the new thief Cao Yuan!"

After hearing Shang Lu's identity, Zhao Qi's face changed slightly, but he still tried to remain calm.

"What do you want from me, thief Cao Yuan? I have never done anything illegal or criminal!"

"You really haven't done it?"

Shang Lu snorted coldly and strode towards Zhao Qi.

At the same time, he said with great eloquence: "Your case has been exposed. Come with me to the government office!"

Zhao Qi was really fooled by his trick and immediately turned around and ran away.

"Can you run away?"

Shang Lu shouted coldly, and displayed his Tiger Step Skill. He was like a tiger pouncing on its prey. He caught up with Zhao Qi in an instant and raised his hand to grab his shoulder.

But just as Shang Lu's hand touched Zhao Qi's shoulder, Zhao Qi suddenly turned into a puppet with a "bang".

At the same time, the real Zhao Qi appeared at the street corner dozens of steps away.

He shouted, "Want to catch me? No way!" and ran away.

But the next moment, Zhao Qi suddenly felt severe pain in both feet, his body lost control and he fell to the ground.

Zhao Qi fell to the ground and looked at his feet in panic.

I saw two flying knives stuck in his feet, not only causing him excruciating pain, but also injuring his tendons, making it difficult for him to walk.

Shang Lu chased after him, waved his hand, and blood flew out.

Amid Zhao Qi's screams, two flying knives were pulled out from his feet and stabbed into his throat and heart.

"Keep running."
