Gu Long: Dominating the Martial Arts World Starting from Transmigrating as A Fei

Chapter 128 An Unexpected Encounter with the "Gambler"

On the first floor of the inn, everyone was gathered in a circle.

Through the gap in the stair railing, Afei and his two companions saw a crowd surrounding five people.

The most conspicuous one among them looked just like the legendary "Giant Mother".

He was wearing tattered clothes, and was tall and large, with one shoulder that seemed twice as wide as others.

He had a full head of unkempt hair, a face as dark as the bottom of a pot, eyebrows like brushes, eyes like copper bells, and a thick beard covering his cheeks.

Only one eye remained, with a black cloth covering the left eye.

In the early spring, before the weather had warmed up, he had already opened his shirt, revealing his chest muscles covered in bristles.

The man's trousers were rolled up to his knees, and his legs, which were as black as iron and covered with black hair, were covered in mud. He wore a pair of straw sandals on his muddy feet.

Most strangely, his left hand only had his thumb and forefinger left, and he was carrying an extra-large gourd of wine.

This "giant bastard" is currently perched on the largest table.

The four people opposite him glared at him, all looking indignant.

As he reached the bottom of the stairs, a notification suddenly popped up in front of Afei's eyes from the "Ancient Martial Arts Compendium".

[Discovered Xuanyuan Sanguang; Technique detected: "Spending Money Like Water"; Analysis to begin.]

The "Giant Mother" in the crowd turned out to be Xuan Yuan San Guang, one of the "Ten Villains" and known as the "Gambling Demon"!

This man is addicted to gambling and likes to force others to gamble with him. When he gambles, he not only disregards his own family, but also his parents, wife and children.

It's a well-known saying in the gambling world: "When you encounter a gambling addict, you have to gamble whether you want to or not, and you won't stop until the sun is out, everyone is gone, and all your money is gone."

However, he has one redeeming quality: he is willing to accept defeat and never reneges on his debts.

His finger and an eye were also lost to others through gambling.

The "gambling addict" Xuan Yuan San Guang raised his hand and slammed the large gourd in his hand onto the table.

With a loud "bang," the food on the table bounced.

Xuanyuan Sanguang caught half a smoked chicken with his hairy hands, tore off a chicken leg, pointed the leg at the wealthy merchant, and laughed heartily:

"Come here!"

The voice was like the sound of a bell, so loud it made people's ears go numb.

The person being pointed at was a middle-aged man, wearing a rich man's hat, a brocade robe, and shoes with the character "福" (fortune) on them, with a belly bulging like half a ball.

This outfit clearly indicates he's a wealthy man.

His well-maintained face was now deathly pale with fright. He took a few steps slowly and tremblingly, and said in a shaking voice:

"Your humble servant Zhang Dewang pays his respects to Your Majesty."

Xuanyuan Sanguang laughed loudly in a booming voice:

"Damn it, I know perfectly well that you son of a bitch are none other than Wang Lingchuan, 'Wang the Millionaire,' the nouveau riche of the city!"

"You little bastard, you think you can fool me? I'll curse your ancestors!"

He used the word "Laozi" four times and "guizizi" twice in one sentence, which is standard Sichuan dialect.

He spoke somewhat vaguely, probably because he was chewing on a chicken leg.

Wang Baiwan had already knelt down with a "plop," and said with a bitter face:

"I don't have much silver on me, but I'm willing to give it all to Your Majesty, as long as Your Majesty..."

Xuanyuan Sanguang frowned and cursed:

"Bullshit! Why would I steal your money, you son of a bitch? I heard you're a shrewd gambler, so I specifically invited you here to gamble!"

Wang Baiwan took a deep breath, stood up, and said with a forced smile:

"If Your Majesty wishes to gamble, whether it be dice, dominoes... I am ready to play with you."

He looked around pretending to be interested, and then said:

"There are no gambling tools here, but after I return to the city, I will certainly serve Your Majesty very well, and then..."

Xuanyuan Sanguang suddenly slammed his hand on the table and said:

"Why would I gamble with you, you son of a bitch, on this nonsense? I'll gamble with you on guessing coins, heads or tails, it's a gamble."

Wang Baiwan was stunned, and stammered:

"But I don't know what Your Majesty wants to bet on, and I don't have much capital with me."

Xuanyuan Sanguang said:

"I bet you one hand and one leg..."

Wang Baiwan had just stood up when his legs went weak again, and he collapsed to the ground with a "plop," his teeth chattering.

After a moment, he seemed to remember something, and gritted his teeth, saying:

"What if Your Majesty loses?"

Xuanyuan Sanguang said:

"If I lose, I'll cut off one of my fingers for you."

Wang Baiwan was utterly stunned and didn't know how to respond, only managing to say:

"This...this..."

Xuanyuan Sanguang roared:

"What the hell! One of my fingers is worth more than all four of your legs!"

Wang Baiwan's teeth chattered as he said:

"I...don't want to gamble."

Xuanyuan Sanguang glared and said:

"Damn it, we have to gamble."

Wang Baiwan seemed to have gone all out, and shouted loudly:

"There's only rape in this world, no one forces others to gamble!"

Upon hearing this, Xuanyuan Sanguang laughed heartily:

"I've never done anything bad in my life except for forcing others to gamble!"

"You son of a bitch, you've been a gambler your whole life. You're lucky to have met me, 'The Gambler', today."

Wang Baiwan's eyes widened immediately, and he exclaimed:

"You...you are Xuanyuan..."

Xuanyuan Sanguang swallowed the chicken leg he was chewing, bone and all, then tore off a piece of chicken and threw it into his mouth, laughing loudly:

"I am Xuanyuan Sanguang, you little bastard, you even know that?"

"Since you know me, you should know that I'm a sure bettor, I never renege on my bets, so what are you afraid of?"

With a flick of his wrist, a copper coin bounced into the air, flipped several times, and landed with a "clang" on the altar.

Xuanyuan Sanguang immediately covered it with his large hand and shouted:

"Is it positive or negative? Guess! Quick!"

Lianxing clearly disapproved of this "gambling addict's" behavior, her pretty face full of disgust.

But Ah Fei's eyes were already shining.

For no other reason than that, although Xuanyuan Sanguang was addicted to gambling, he had no interest in money at all.

So even if he wins money, he will lose it very quickly.

Once he wins against Wang Baiwan, he can win the money back, which suits Afei's taste perfectly. He can get a return with almost no effort.

Afei has already figured out a way to win against Xuanyuan Sanguang.

Wang Baiwan was indeed unlucky to be targeted by him, because this wealthy man was already destined to lose.

Almost everyone saw that before the coin was covered, the "Tongbao" side was facing up.

But Afei was certain that this must have been something Xuanyuan Sanguang deliberately made Wang Baiwan see.

Wang Baiwan's lips turned white, and he opened his mouth several times, but still couldn't utter a single word.

The veins on the back of Xuanyuan Sanguang's hand were bulging, and he seemed a little nervous as he shouted sternly:

"Hurry up, if you don't tell, you lose!"

Wang Baiwan then said tremblingly:

"Tong... Tongbao!"

Xuanyuan Sanguang flipped his hand and laughed loudly:

"You little bastard, you lost!"

Wang Baiwan was shocked, his eyes widening even more than those of Xuanyuan Sanguang.

A smile played on Afei's lips; he had already anticipated this outcome.

Xuanyuan Sanguang must have flipped the coin over the instant his hand touched it.

Wang Baiwan lost because he peeked.

Strictly speaking, this method can't be considered deception, since Wang Baiwan wanted to peek.

Lianxing's beautiful eyes widened slightly, and she said softly:

"This 'gambler' does have some skills."

Ah Fei smiled faintly:

"It's just a kid's toy."

Xuanyuan Sanguang's large ears twitched, and he glanced sideways at Afei.
