Longkui, Changqing, and even Chonglou were all surprised; they had finally witnessed the biggest "big hand" (a winning hand in some rounds) in the past few rounds.
Lin Yaoxie was secretly overjoyed. Fortunately, these people didn't know the rules of mahjong, and Lin Yaoxie made a hefty profit off them.
Unfortunately, his good fortune didn't last long. In the next few rounds, Lin Yaoxie couldn't help but want to chop off his hands, because he had four straight runs, two cleared pairs, and one Peacock Flies Southeast. But even all of these wins combined couldn't compare to the number of wins Chonglou had made with that single "pi hu" (a type of winning hand).
In the end, under the relentless onslaught of Changqing Chonglou and others, Lin Yaoxie was left with only his underwear and the Yilong Sword, his only means of survival.
It was already dusk, and quite a while had passed since Xuejian had mentioned an hour. Lin Yaoxie put away the mahjong tiles and said worriedly:
"Could something have happened to Xuejian?"
Counting the time carefully, three hours had passed. Even if Xuejian had returned to Tangjiabao once, she should have come back by now, but the group still hadn't seen Xuejian in the bamboo forest.
Just then, three people came from the direction of Bishan, two men and one woman, whose attire clearly indicated they were bandits.
"Sister Qiuhan, tomorrow is Boss Wei's birthday, shall we give him this lacquer box with a duckbill-shaped handle?"
One of the men asked.
The woman named Qiu Han seemed quite pleased with the gift:
"I spent a fortune to acquire this antique, surely Boss Wei won't be satisfied?" "But I heard Boss Zhu's spending this time is quite extravagant. Apparently, he's not only giving Boss Wei a pair of exotic beasts but also a beautiful woman. I've even seen that woman before; she's a bit formidable, but..."
Seeing the man drooling, Qiu Han said sternly:
"What, are you prettier than me?"
"They're all beautiful, they're all beautiful, but I heard that's the young lady of the Tang Clan—something like Sword or Blood. What girl has such a name? Boss Zhu must be making it up."
The man hurriedly changed his story.
Lin Yaoxie's heart trembled upon hearing what the group said. It was unbelievable that Xuejian had been captured by that country bumpkin Boss Zhu.
Lin Yaoxie immediately wanted to capture these people and interrogate them about Xuejian's whereabouts, but Changqing stopped him, saying:
"If we press Xuejian for her whereabouts now, we might alert her, and she might be in danger of losing her life if she gets angry."
Lin Yaoxie pondered for a moment and felt that Changqing's words made sense, so he thought for a moment and said:
"Why don't we try to sneak into the so-called birthday banquet, like (Qian's Zhao) He, and then seize the opportunity to rescue him?"
"I might as well send a few kids to scout ahead, and we can just keep playing the game."
Longkui was the most talkative person today, so she surprisingly offered to help find Xuejian.
Although Longkui's suggestion seemed good, in the end, she still wanted to use violence to save people, which was similar to Lin Yaoxie's previous attempt to force them to reveal Xuejian's whereabouts. Therefore, Lin Yaoxie smiled and objected:
"It's better to play it safe. I'll teach you more than just nonsense another day."
Speaking of farts, Lin Yaoxie suddenly had an idea: how to get acquainted with that group of people from before.
Lin Yaoxie asked Changqing:
"Brother Xu is a cultivator, I wonder if he has any qi-regulating pills on him."
Although Xu Changqing didn't know what Lin Yaoxie was doing, Qi-regulating pills were always used by cultivators for health and had never had any harmful effects.
Chapter Seventy-Seven: A Chance Encounter with Farting [Second Update]
After obtaining Changqing's calming pill, Lin Yaoxie mysteriously said to everyone, "Let's make another bet. Within an hour, I can get that woman named Qiuhan to take us to that so-called birthday banquet."
"You've run out of money to gamble with," Chonglou kindly reminded Lin Yaoxie.
Lin Yaoxie tugged at his underwear and said:
"Isn't there one more?"
“Okay.” Long Kui and the others acted in unison, hanging the clothes they had won from Lin Yaoxie on the bamboo branches. Their intention was clear: if Lin Yaoxie won, they would return the clothes to him; if Lin Yaoxie lost again, he would probably have to go back to Anning Village naked.
Lin Yaoxie walked out of the bamboo forest and found that the group of people from before had already checked into the inn and were now enjoying dinner in the inn's lobby.
It was just nightfall, and the inn's lobby was already packed with guests due to its location at a transportation hub.
Lin Yaoxie casually ordered some food and drinks, and sat down next to Qiu Han under the pretext of sharing a table. As a chivalrous person who often travels around to make a living, sharing a table was already commonplace for these people. As for the silver Lin Yaoxie had, it was borrowed from Long Kui before entering the inn.
Lin Yaoxie successfully sat down next to Qiu Han. Taking advantage of Qiu Han's drinking contest with the men, Lin Yaoxie put the calming medicine he had previously obtained from Chang Qing into Qiu Han's food.
To be honest, Lin Yaoxie felt that this matter was really unnecessary. If these medicines were replaced with poison, it would probably be more convenient to carry out the plan. Unfortunately, firstly, none of Lin Yaoxie and Changqing were skilled in using poison, so they would not carry poison with them; secondly, even if Changqing had poison, he would not give it to Lin Yaoxie to use to harm people.
Therefore, it was already extremely fortunate that Lin Yaoxie was able to obtain medicine to soothe his qi from Changqing.
Everything was ready, Lin Yaoxie thought to himself, counting down the days:
Just then, a "poof" sound rang out in the lobby of the inn.
There were at least fifty or sixty people coming and going in the hall, and apart from Lin Yaoxie, they had all obviously heard the voice.
First, everyone was eating at the time, and the sound, accompanied by a strong smell, spread to the surroundings.
Secondly, the sound is very loud; anyone who has ever farted knows it's just the sound of a fart.
In the inn's lobby, everyone's eyes turned to Lin Yaoxie and Qiu Han, filled with curiosity and mockery.
Lin Yaoxie knew, of course, that the fart wasn't his, but if it wasn't his, it must have been the fragrant and beautiful young woman beside him.
Lin Yaoxie knew his chance to shine had come. Although he couldn't openly admit that he was the one who farted, everyone could tell from his expression that he was indeed the one who farted.
Qiu Han gave Lin Yaoxie an approving look, then continued drinking with her two brothers as if nothing had happened.
However, Lin Yaoxie could no longer stay in the inn. At least thirty or forty pairs of eyes were watching him, and at least a third of those eyes belonged to young girls.
light.
Lin Yaoxie fled the inn as quickly as possible, feeling uneasy. He wondered if the girl named Qiu Han would be grateful to him for a fart.
The inn was built next to the water. Lin Yaoxie was staring blankly at the Yuzhou River when he suddenly felt someone watching him from the shadows. Years of combat experience had made Lin Yaoxie inexplicably sensitive to whether someone was behind him.
Turning his head, Lin Yaoxie saw Qiu Han, and Qiu Han also saw Lin Yaoxie.
Lin Yaoxie's appearance was finally fully revealed in Qiu Han's eyes. Qiu Han's first impression of Lin Yaoxie was:
This man has a very well-proportioned body.
Lin Yaoxie feigned surprise and asked:
"Is there something you need, young lady?"
Lin Yaoxie's second impression on Qiu Han was:
This man has a very nice voice.
Seeing that Qiu Han remained silent, Lin Yaoxie pressed the Yilong Sword against Qiu Han's neck.
"If you don't tell me, I'll kill you."
Lin Yaoxie's third impression on Qiu Han was:
This man is very agile and capable of protecting the girl he loves.
Qiu Han ignored the Dragon-Slaying Sword that Lin Yaoxie held to her neck and said with a smile:
"My name is Qiu Han. If it weren't for you just now... I would have been dead."
Lin Yaoxie joked:
"I've heard of people dying for money, for love, and even for a hollow reputation, but this is the first time I've heard of someone dying for a fart."
Qiu Han added:
"No, you saved my life, I don't know how to repay you."
Lin Yaoxie's scheme with handsome men succeeded. This world is so unfair; if you're good-looking, sometimes even a fart can be a connection.
Lin Yaoxie deliberately said casually:
"It's just a small matter, nothing to worry about."
Qiu Han said:
“It’s a small thing for you, but it’s a big deal for me… I want to repay you…”
On a night like this, when a girl suddenly says to a man wearing only underwear, "I want to repay you," even a fool would understand what she means.
Unfortunately, Lin Yaoxie was not a fool, but a demon, or rather, a demon on his way.
Therefore, Lin Yaoxie sheathed the Yilong Sword and said solemnly:
"If you really want to repay me, take me out for a big meal."
Qiu Han was startled by Lin Yaoxie's words, as if she hadn't heard them clearly:
"What did you say?"
Lin Yaoxie repeated:
"If you find it inconvenient to have a big meal, you can leave me at the door while you go to eat so you can smell the aroma."
Qiu Han looked at Lin Yaoxie incredulously: "Nothing else?"
Lin Yaoxie pretended to be relaxed and said:
"You ruined my meal, so it's only right that you treat me to a big meal."
Qiu Han stared at Lin Yaoxie for a long time, then her gaze gradually shifted from surprise to disappointment. After a long while, she said:
I never expected you to be such a fool.
"Am I asking for too little? Perhaps I can exchange my life-saving grace for two big meals."
Qiu Han bit her lip, her face flushed, and said:
"Perhaps you should know that girls have better ways to repay their saviors."
Lin Yaoxie pretended to be ignorant:
"What is that? I'm all ears."
Qiu Han left in anger, saying bitterly before she left:
"Tomorrow at noon, I'll take you to the bamboo forest outside the city for a feast you've never had before."
Lin Yaoxie watched Qiu Han's departing figure gradually disappear from sight, and finally couldn't help but laugh.
Besides Lin Yaoxie, a burst of laughter came from above. Lin Yaoxie snatched the outer garment floating in the air and said:
"You lost, I'll keep the coat."
Lin Yaoxie didn't need to look; he knew that Long Kui and Chang Qing's group were definitely watching him from the shadows. They must have seen his performance with Qiu Han just now. It was a good thing that they didn't laugh out loud.
