Taichu Yandao: Starting from the Villain

In front of the semicircular gambling table, sitting on the far left was an old man with sparse hair and a haggard body, and the other person sat in the middle, and from the back he looked like a young man.

Zhao Rui recognized the old man as Long Wanshou, so he said, "The old man on the left is Long Wanshou. He speaks the most rudely. I'm afraid he has scolded everyone away."

As for the young man, Zhao Rui looked somewhat familiar, but he couldn't remember where he was, so he walked to the side.

On the green velvet gambling table, there were piles of chips in front of the young man, which at a glance amounted to about five or six thousand.

At the front of the chips, on each of the three betting areas, there is a black chip.

"One person plays three hands... No wonder there are only two people on the table!" Zhao Rui was shocked and looked at the other party again. The more he looked, the more familiar he felt.

After a while, he slapped his forehead and blurted out: "Qu Jiangtian...Fellow Daoist Qu? Long time no see."

"Who are you, fellow Taoist?" The young man turned his head, looking puzzled.

Zhao Rui sat down and said, "Fellow Daoist, don't you remember? A year ago, we fought together for several days and nights, and Fellow Daoist Long was also there."

Qu Jiangtian frowned slightly and said, "A year ago? I seem to have some impression of it. What's your name, fellow Taoist?"

"My surname is Zhao, and my given name is Rui." Zhao Rui smiled and pointed at Shen and Qian and said, "These two are my fellow disciples, Qian Xiaoyi and Shen Chenqing."

Qian Xiaoyi clasped his fists and bowed, while Shen Chen smiled in response.

Qu Jiangtian glanced at the two of them, and when he saw Shen Chenqing, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, but he immediately returned to normal, clasped his fists and bowed, without saying anything.

"My two fellow Taoists, just gamble, why bother to reveal your affiliation? The chips are all cold!" Long Wanshou suddenly said.

"That makes sense. It's true that we need to win money quickly." Qu Jiangtian knocked on the gambling table, signaling the dealer to deal the cards quickly.

"Wait a moment! Let me change the chips..." Zhao Rui said as he pushed a black chip forward.

Seeing this, the dealer immediately went to look for red chips, but before he had found all of them, Zhao Rui said, "Just change them all to white ones."

Qu Jiangtian showed a look of contempt, but said nothing.

Soon, the card game began. Zhao Rui bet one spirit stone each time, while Qu Jiangtian bet three hundred at a time.

At first, Qu Jiangtian was very proud of himself. After winning several times in a row, the chips on the table had reached nearly ten thousand yuan.

He called his servant over, threw him a green chip, and ordered a jug of wine.

After three or five cups, he started to talk more and more. He said with a smile, "When my luck comes, it's unstoppable. It's really fucking winning all the time. It's so cool all the time."

This good luck lasted for a while, and then Qu Jiangtian's luck began to go downhill. Half an hour later, he had only a thousand chips left in front of him.

In the last round, he placed three hundred yuan on each side, then piled all the chips in the middle and said, "Wulian Tianzun, the victory or defeat depends on this round."

Long Wanshou sneered and said, "When drawing cards, you must not be impatient. If you keep playing like this, you will lose everything sooner or later."

Qu Jiangtian said: "That's not necessarily true. I bet three times, how can I lose all of them?"

Long Wanshou shook his head and said nothing.

The cards were dealt quickly. Qu Jiangtian frowned as he looked at each hand. After looking at three decks of cards, the biggest one he found was a pair of nines.

He held his breath, hoping for a miracle to happen, but the dealer turned over a lucky 9, 10, and 11.

Qu Jiangtian's face was full of green light, and he cursed: "Fuck it, why do I feel like I'm being targeted? How can it be such a coincidence!"

Zhao Rui smiled and said, "That's normal. I've been through eighteen kneelings before, and you've only been through a few."

Qu Jiangtian ignored Zhao Rui, fumbled around his waist, took out a Heaven and Earth Token, and shouted, "Call someone to give me 10,000 chips!"

The people around were shocked, and many monks who were originally on other platforms also gathered over.

The dealer smiled and called a waiter in a blue shirt, telling him to get the chips quickly.

Soon, three sturdy blue-shirted attendants came over with a small box. One of them took out a Heaven and Earth Token, handed it over respectfully with both hands, and said, "This distinguished guest, please come in."

Qu Jiangtian pinched his fingers and cast a spell towards his own Heaven and Earth Order, then he touched the Heaven and Earth Order of the blue-shirted attendant.

Zhao Rui was not unfamiliar with this scene. Taoist Panlong and the head of the Qi family also touched each other in this way and exchanged spirit stones.

He vaguely remembered that he had to go to Tiandi Bank for something, but he couldn't remember it.

After Qu Jiangtian got the chips, his face became radiant again. He still had three hands, with a black chip in each hand.

But just one hour later, he lost all the chips on the table again.

"Fuck it, I still don't believe it."

After he finished cursing, he asked the dealer to take chips again, this time he asked for a full 20,000.

This scene shocked the surrounding cultivators again. They wondered which family this second-generation rich man was from and how he didn't even consider spirit stones as money.

Among them, some people wanted to personally participate in this gamble, but they did not dare to ask Qu Jiangtian, but walked towards Zhao Rui.

"My fellow Daoist, can you give me your position? I will pay you fifty spirit stones." said a young man in green robe.

"Eighty quick!" someone nearby said immediately.

"One hundred dollars!"

Zhao Rui hurriedly stopped him and said, "My position is very popular. If anyone wins the grand prize and is willing to give me half, I can consider it!"

"Nerve..." The young man in green robe was halfway through his words when he sensed the powerful aura of Zhao Rui and swallowed back the words.

However, he did not leave, but continued to stand behind and watch.

Such bets are not common, but they are good for bragging rights.

Under countless gazes, Qu Jiangtian continued to perform. He was generous but his luck was really bad. After persisting for an hour, he lost everything again.

This time, Qu Jiangtian did not curse, but stood there with his eyes wide open.

"Dear distinguished guest, do you still want to play?" asked the dealer.

Qu Jiangtian came back to his senses, but did not answer. Instead, he casually reached around his waist, took out a longan ring, and put it on the middle finger of his left hand.

Zhao Rui noticed this scene. He didn't think much about it at first, but when the ring was straightened, he saw the dragon eye turning and scanning the surroundings at an extremely fast speed.

At one point, it even swept past himself.

"What is this?" Zhao Rui was curious but did not ask.

After Qu Jiangtian put on the ring, he immediately said, "Go, ask someone to bring me 30,000 chips."

The dealer's smile had risen to thirty degrees, but when he heard the thirty thousand chips, he stopped calling the blue servant and took out the message jade to communicate.

Soon, Fatty Wang, wearing a long gown with copper coin patterns, came over personally carrying the chips.

He pushed aside the crowd, put on a smile and said, "Dear distinguished guest, I am Fatty Wang, you can also call me Little Wang. May I know your name?"

As he spoke, he took out the Order of Heaven and Earth, held it up with both hands, and handed it to Qu Jiangtian.

Qu Jiangtian took out the Heaven and Earth Order again. Just as he cast a spell, his face suddenly changed and he said, "How about...give me 10,000 chips first!"
