Rebirth, possession in the opening game

The next day, Xu Litao and Bai Mengchen took a plane back home.

The Spring Festival is approaching, and the atmosphere in the village is quite lively. Naughty children gather together in twos and threes, each holding a lit incense stick and bombing around the village.

"Crackling!"

The sound of festive firecrackers comes one after another.

"You little dog, come back to me!"

"Who asked you to fry cow dung again!"

"I am Shu Dao San! If you don't come back, see if I don't spread your butts!"

……

Parents angrily reprimanded their naughty children. After a period of excitement, the naughty children were finally suppressed ruthlessly by their parents.

"Hehe, Brother Tao, the Chinese New Year is almost here, it's so lively!"

Bai Mengchen watched the naughty children fleeing and couldn't help but laugh and said to Xu Litao, with a nostalgic expression on his face.

"Haha, I really miss my childhood. I was carefree at that time. What I looked forward to the most was celebrating the Spring Festival."

"Yes, my childhood is always so nostalgic."

Xu Litao also echoed with emotion, and then grabbed Bai Mengchen enthusiastically.

"Let's go, Chenchen, I'll take you to fry fish, hey, let's relive the fun of childhood."

"Haha! Okay, okay!"

When Bai Mengchen heard this, he immediately cheered happily, and then looked at Xu Litao with some pride.

"Hey, Brother Tao, let's compete later to see who can fry the fish."

"I'm telling you, when I was a kid, I was an expert at frying fish!"

Bai Mengchen put his hands on his hips and looked proud.

"Ha ha!"

Xu Litao couldn't help laughing and said jokingly:

"Oh, I didn't expect our Chenchen to be capable of this!"

"Let's go! Then we have to see it!"

"Let's go, let's go fish fry!"

……

The days passed happily and sweetly. Xu Litao thought he could stay like this until the Spring Festival, but he didn't expect that a phone call disrupted his plans.

"Hey, Sister Yingying, Happy New Year!"

The call was from He Yingying. Although Xu Litao was a little confused, how could He Yingying have time to call him when she wasn't busy with the casino?

But he still answered the call and said Happy New Year with a smile.

"Xiao Tao, happy new year!"

On the phone, He Yingying's voice was a little low, and it could be heard that she was in a bad mood at this time.

Frowning, Xu Litao asked:

"Sister Yingying, what's wrong? Why do you sound like you're in a bad mood?"

"Xiao Tao, something happened at the casino, and I need you to come over and take action to solve it."

He Yingying said in a deep voice, and then explained apologetically.

"Sorry to disturb you at this time."

"The casino was challenged by the Yamamoto family of the island country. They were despicable and used despicable means to plot against Uncle Liu."

"Now besides you, I can't find anyone who can deal with the island nation's gambling masters."

Hearing He Yingying's explanation, Xu Litao suddenly realized. No wonder, Hejia Casino has Liu Boren and Liu in charge, so it stands to reason that he can handle it.

It turned out to be a plot.

"Is Manager Liu okay?"

"It's nothing serious, it's just that my hands are injured, so I can't use my gambling skills for the time being."

"Sister Yingying, when will the bet you agreed on start?"

"tomorrow morning."

Hearing this, Xu Litao frowned, but still said:

"So anxious? It seems that the other party is well prepared."

"Okay, no problem. I'll be here right away. I should be able to reach Omen by night."

"Okay, Xiaotao, then I'll pick you up personally."

After the two finished speaking, they hung up the phone.

Xu Litao immediately booked the ticket for the nearest flight to Aomen, then told his family and Bai Mengchen, and hurried to the airport.

……

At the same time, Omen Grand Lisboa Casino.

Liu Boren, whose hands were tied up, looked at He Yingying nervously.

"How's it going, Miss? Has Mr. Xu agreed?"

Without waiting for He Yingying to reply, he said with great self-reproach:

"It's all my fault for being careless. I didn't expect that guys who are doing well in my life would come here to trick me!"

"These little days are so abominable!"

Looking at Liu Boren who was extremely remorseful, He Yingying shook her head, indicating that she did not blame him.

"Uncle Liu, how can I blame you? It's all those island people who are too insidious."

"Yamamoto bear, hum! If I hadn't been concerned about the strength of the Yamamoto family, I would have prevented them from getting out of Omen!"

He Yingying said with murderous intent, which shows how hateful the people of the Yamamoto family are.

"Uncle Liu, don't worry, Xiao Tao has already arrived by plane. If he takes action, the gambling king of the island country, huh, is just a clown!"

"I will make them pay the price they deserve!"

Hearing He Yingying's words, Liu Boren looked happy.

"Great!"

"With Mr. Xu taking action, these island people have nothing to fear!"

He was full of confidence in Xu Litao's strength. After the last competition, he knew that his gambling skills were not on the same level as Xu Litao's.

Liu Boren asserted that based on Xu Litao's demonstrated strength, Xu Litao's gambling skills could be defeated by only a handful of people in the world.

"Miss, the security work for Mr. Xu must be foolproof this time!"

"Don't worry, Uncle Liu. This time I will personally take someone to pick him up."

……

Just as He Yingying and Liu Boren were discussing how to safely protect Xu Litao, on the other side, in the Grand Lisboa Hotel.

A group of young people were talking wildly and proudly.

"Haha! Master Xiong, you are so decisive in taking action! I am so impressed by you!"

A middle-aged man from an island country with a hooked nose was flattering a young man with triangular eyes and a narrow appearance.

These two people are the island country's Yamamoto Gou Xiong and the island country's gambling king Inoue Murao.

"Now that Liu Boren's hands are injured and he can't show off his gambling skills, Hejia Casino will definitely fail!"

"To be honest, except for Liu Yishou who makes me a little afraid, I don't take any of the other gambling masters in the Dragon Kingdom seriously!"

Hearing Mr. Inoue's arrogant words and compliments to himself, Yamamoto Gou Xiong let out an unpleasant and harsh laugh.

"Jie Jie Jie!"

"Mr. Inoue, you can only win and not lose at this stop! Don't worry, I will do what I promised you. When the time comes, all the casinos of the Yamamoto family will be under your management."

"We will use the He family as a springboard to slowly encroach on Omen's other casinos. When the time comes, our Yamamoto family will secretly control Omen Casino."

"Hahaha! Master Xiong is so wise, this plan is so perfect!"

"Jie Jie Jie!"

……

In the evening, He Yingying went to the airport with many bodyguards to pick up Xu Litao.

Such a major battle could not be hidden from Yamamoto Bear, who was always watching them.

"Huh? What does He Yingying want to do? Did he invite gambling masters from other places?"

Yamamoto Gou Xiong couldn't help frowning as he listened to his subordinate's report.

When the village man Inoue next to him heard this, he sneered and comforted Yamamoto Gou Xiong:

"Young Master Xiong, don't worry. As far as I know, there is absolutely no gambling master in Long Kingdom who is more powerful than Liu Boren."

"I see, this is the He family trying to spread suspicion in the past, trying to confuse our sight. I think it's better to keep a close eye on the He family. I guess they will definitely send other gambling masters from the He family."

"Haha, I don't look down on those people at all!"

"Si Guoyi! Inoue-kun, what you said makes perfect sense!"

Inoue Murao and Yamamoto Gou Xiong were singing along, so they didn't pay much attention to He Yingying and her group.

Soon, He Yingying took Xu Litao back to the casino very smoothly.

"Mr. Xu, this time it's up to you."

Seeing Xu Litao, Liu Boren said excitedly.

"Manager Liu, are you okay?"

Looking at Liu Boren whose hands were covered with bandages, Xu Litao asked with concern.

Liu Boren chuckled and shook his head, "It's okay. It's a small injury and it will heal after a while."

At this time, He Yingying also smiled relaxedly and said:

"Don't worry, Xiao Tao. Even though Uncle Liu's injuries are scary, they are actually just skin injuries. The doctor said it will be cured in half a month."

After smiling, He Yingying asked someone to come in with a piece of information, and then said to Xu Litao:

"Xiao Tao, this is your opponent this time, Inoue Murao, a strong gambling expert in the island country, known as the gambling king of the island country."

"Mura Inoue?"

Xu Litao couldn't help but laugh when he heard his opponent's name.

"This name..."

He shook his head, then took the information handed over by He Yingying and read it.

After looking at it for a few times, Xu Litao threw down the information and said with great confidence:

"This little devil is no match for me."

"At the same time, he is no match for Manager Liu, otherwise he wouldn't have used despicable means."

"By the way, Sister Yingying, what's your bet?"

Xu Litao asked He Yingying curiously. Because time was in a hurry, He Yingying and the others had not rushed to tell Xu Litao yet.

"Oh, look at my brain."

He Yingying slapped her forehead, and then she realized what she was doing and said hurriedly:

"The Yamamoto family bet two of our country's national treasures against 10% of the shares of our Hejia Casino."

"National treasure? What national treasure?"

Hearing this, Xu Litao frowned.

""Reclining Travel in Xiaoxiang" and Wang Xizhi's "Sangluan Tie".

He Yingying replied with a wry smile.

"It's so shameless these days. They use our things as bets. It's just a pity that they declared war with great fanfare."

"Otherwise, our He family would never care about them. They are just clowns."

Hearing He Yingying's words, Xu Litao also slightly frowned.

""Xiaoxiang Reclining Travel Picture"? "Mourning Poster"? National treasure! I will definitely win this bet!"

Xu Litao is naturally familiar with these two national treasures.

"Reclining Tour of Xiaoxiang" is a national treasure-level painting and is known as the first masterpiece of landscape painting in the Southern Song Dynasty!

The author's real name is not known, but we only know that it was painted by a painter named Li, who is from the same hometown as Li Gonglin.

According to legend, Zen Master Yungu of the Southern Song Dynasty lived in seclusion in Jindou Mountain in Wuxing, Zhejiang after traveling around the world.

He thought with regret of the landscape of Xiaoxiang that he had not yet set foot on, so he asked a painter named Li to paint the beautiful scenery of Xiaoxiang for him. He hung the painting in his room and could enjoy the beautiful scenery while lying on the bed, so he named Xiaoxiang Sleeping tour.

This painting was Emperor Qianlong's favorite landscape painting. The entire long scroll was painted with light ink and dyed in one go, without any outline or brush marks.

The large blank space, the hazy mountains and rivers, the mountains and the sky, the water reaching the sky, and the majestic atmosphere make the viewer forget all the brushwork and ink for a moment, completely immersed in the vast realm created by the painter, and feel as if they are wandering to the sky. It feels like a completely divine product.

At that time, the value of this painting was even higher than "Travel to Xishan" and "Dwelling in Fuchun Mountains". Unfortunately, in the late Qing Dynasty, it was obtained by the island collector Kikuchido using despicable means.

Then it flowed into island countries.

I didn't expect that the Yamamoto family would take him out as a bet.

Next is Wang Xizhi's "Sang Luan Tie", which is a copy of Wang Xizhi's ruler tablets in cursive script during the Tang Dynasty.

Hard yellow ring extension, double hook outline and ink mark on white linen paper.

"Sang Luan Tie" has exquisite brushwork, many sideways poses, and a strange and unrestrained style. It is a typical work of the latest postures created by Wang Xizhi.

According to legend, it was brought to the island country by Master Jianzhen when he traveled eastward.

If it hadn't been connected with the "Er Xie Tie" and "De Shi Tie" on one piece of paper, it would have been regarded as the only authentic work handed down from the world by the calligrapher.

This post is made of hard yellow ring extensions, double hooks and outlines, ink on white linen paper, exquisite brushwork, and ups and downs of fonts. It fully expresses the calligraphy sage's "pursuing the coolest" state of mind when writing. It is the best in Jin and Tang calligraphy.

It can be compared with the treasure "Quick Snow Shi Qing Tie" in the Forbidden City in Tibei and the secret treasure "Shenlong Orchid Pavilion Preface" in the Forbidden City in Beijing, and its value is inestimable.

With these two national treasures alone, Xu Litao has a reason to win.

"You must take back what belongs to your own country!"

Seeing that Xu Litao valued these two national treasures so much, He Yingying said:

"Xiao Tao, I ask you to take action this time. In addition to the 1 million transfer fee, these two national treasures will also be handed over to you."

"Okay, thank you very much, Sister Yingying."

Xu Litao was not pretentious and agreed readily.

He wanted to get these two national treasures, not for his own collection, but to hand them over to the country and put them in a museum for the world to admire.

After the three of them chatted for a while, He Yingying arranged for Xu Litao to rest. Security personnel were deployed on three levels inside and outside to protect Xu Litao.

With the previous lesson, He Yingying will not be careless again.

……

The night passed by in a hurry, and soon it came to the next day, the time for the He family and the Yamamoto family to compete.

At the Grand Lisboa Casino, the gamblers who came after hearing the news stood outside the venue and watched nervously.

"Come on, come on! It's about to begin!"

"Hmph! You little devil really overestimates your capabilities and dares to bet against the He family!"

"Watch them lose and swim back to the island country later!"

"I think the He family is in a bit of a pickle this time. Don't you know? Manager Liu was injured in both hands and can't play for the time being. He is the king of gambling in the island country, and other gambling masters in the He family may not be the same. Opponent."

"Wow! What's going on? Why is Manager Liu suddenly injured when the game is about to begin? Plot! It must be the despicable little boy's doing!"

"Needless to say? It was definitely them who did it!"

"Damn! How shameless!"

"Seeing their arrogance makes me so angry!"

"Fuck you little days!"

"Go back to the island country!"

……

The whole casino suddenly became excited, and everyone yelled at Yamamoto Gou Xiong and his party.
