    The red veil was only separated by a shallow line. In this position, only Xie Ren could see the person behind the curtain, the other ghosts in the hall were blocked by his body and could not see, of course, did not dare to look around. The left eye gazed at Xie Ren, and Xie Ren also gazed at him, slightly mesmerized.

    With this appearance, Hua Cheng not only looked like he had grown up a few years, he had also become taller. Once upon a time, when Xie Ren looked at him, she could barely look at him, but now when she looked at him, she had to raise her head.

    After a long time of staring at each other, Hwaseong slowly spoke.

    He said in a hushed voice, “Are you going to be bigger, or are you going to be smaller.”

    This voice was low and pleasant to the ear, and only then did Xie Ren come back to his senses a little. It makes no difference if it’s bigger or smaller, so he replied, “Bigger.”

    Flower City said, “Good. I’ll go first.”

    Xie Ren’s left hand was holding the bottom plate of the black wooden gambling cup, and his right hand was pressing down on the round lid of the cup. Hua Cheng stood opposite him, his right hand covered his left hand, and gently shook it, then opened the cup. There were two dice on the bottom plate, one with a six point and one with a five point.

    Lang Qianqiu, who was hanging above, could see clearly, and when he saw that one shake was so big, he couldn’t help but widen his eyes and said in great surprise, “How could this happen?”

    Hua Cheng slightly loosened his hand a little and said to Xie Ren, “Shake it like this, try it.”

    Xie Ren then followed his example and shook it twice. Hua Cheng, however, said, “It’s not right.”

    Although he was saying that what Xie Ren did was wrong, his tone was low and soft to the extreme, patient to the extreme. Saying that, Hua Cheng once again held up the hand below him, and his left hand also probed out, covering the top of Xie Ren’s right hand that was pressing down on the lid, and said in a low voice, “It’s like this.”

    In this way, the backs of both of Xie Ren’s hands were covered by Hua Cheng’s palms.

    When his skin touched, it was as warm and cool as jade, the pair of gorgeous and delicate silver wrist guards were instead as cold as iron, however, Hua Cheng’s movements seemed to be careful not to let them touch Xie Ren. His hands carried Xie Ren’s hands, and he shook the black wooden gambling cup unhurriedly.

    One, two, three.

    Clang, clang, clang.

    The two dice rolled in the black wooden cup, colliding with each other in a tangled fashion, ringing crisply. But it was such a weak vibration, but it shook Xie Ren’s palms and the backs of his hands with a tinge of numbness. And this hint of numbness climbed up along his wrist and spread out.

    Shaking, Xie Ren unintentionally raised his eyes, swept a glance, and found that Hua Cheng did not even look at the gambling cup, but has been staring at him intently, the corner of his lips slightly curled. Xie Ren also couldn’t help but give him a slight smile, then remembered that there were still many people ghosts and demons watching from above and below, immediately restrained his smile, lowered his head and carefully studied the gestures that Hua Cheng had made, saying, “Like this?”

    The smile on Hua Cheng’s lips deepened as he said, “Uh-huh. Yes, that’s right.”

    Seeing that Xie Ren shook it a few times hopefully, he added, “Open it?”

    Xie Ren then opened it, only to see two white dice on the chassis, two three points.

    Two three-points, already an unprecedented and amazing result, Xie Ren’s heart seemed to have a spring breeze blowing through it, thinking, “Could it be that I really caught the trick?”

    However, even with the amazing results of the battle, six points were still smaller than eleven. He coughed softly and said, “Sorry, I lost.”

    Flower City, however, said, “It doesn’t matter, this disk doesn’t count. I’m teaching you now, again.”

    This sentence out, no matter Lang Qianqiu or division Qingxuan are jaw-dropping. The ghosts under the hall were even more dumbfounded and muttered:

    “What’s going on with the City Lord? I thought the City Lord was going to give him a good look, but it turns out he’s really teaching him??”

    “This disk still doesn’t count? Can it still be played like this?”

    “This one doesn’t count, so when does it count?”

    “It seems like the City Lord is in a really good mood today ……”

    As soon as Hua Cheng raised his left eyebrow, the outside woman immediately said, “Please be quiet, everyone.”

    The hall instantly quieted down again, only that although none of them spoke anymore, their gazes became even more unbridled. Hua Cheng smiled, and again softly encouraged in his ear, “Again?”

    Probably because there were too many ghosts and demons for everyone in the gambling house, Xie Ren inexplicably felt a little heat in the epidermal layer of her cheeks and said, “Good.”

    Bone on bone, bone on bone, two more shakes. This time, uncovered, it was two fours.

    Flower City said, “How about that, is it bigger?”

    Although she felt a little wrong, Xie Ren still nodded and said, “It s …… a little bigger.”

    Hanagi said, “Well done, continue.”

    He was following the guidance like this, but for some reason, there were many ambiguous chattering and laughing sounds coming from all around, and by the sound of it, they all seemed to be female ghosts. Xie Ren couldn’t figure out what the correct posture was anymore. At first, he was honestly studying how Hua Cheng’s hands were placed, how fast or slow they were, but now he was just letting Hua Cheng lead him around, swaying blindly. Shaking and shaking, there is a thought that is getting stronger and stronger, Xie Ren thought to himself, “San Lang is not coaxing me ……”

    And Lang Qianqiu, who had been watching from above and probably felt the same as him, couldn’t help but say, ”You, don’t shake it. He’s clearly cheating you, there’s no such thing as a correct posture. He must have cheated!”

    He shouted out so loudly that Shi Qingxuan covered his face once again.

    The ghosts at the bottom booed and a rain of dice rushed to throw at Lang Qianqiu, all yelling, “Ignorant child, don’t talk!”

    “What’s all the noise about, the guys are seeing the highlights!”

    “That Taoist priest did as our city bishop poses, and got bigger results time and time again is the truth!”

    “Just! What do you know!”

    Lang Qianqiu said angrily, “You, you bunch of eyes open rabble …… ah!!!”

    He suddenly stopped talking, his face reddened, it turned out, underneath a few female ghosts severely tugged on his hanging belt, scolded: “Little brother do not make any more noise, if you talk nonsense, sisters may have to strip your pants!”

    Lang Qianqiu had never been threatened like this before, and was so angry that he could not speak, saying, “You …… guys!”

    If he was just beaten up by a group of ghosts, that would be fine, but if he was really stripped of his pants, he was a Martial God who was sitting on one side of the world, that would be a great loss of face, and at that moment, Lang Qianqiu didn’t dare to say anything more. Xie Ren looked up and saw him looking at himself desperately with his eyes, amused and pitiful. He had no choice but to lower his head and whisper to Hua Cheng, “…… San Lang.”

    Hearing him shout like that, Hua Cheng laughed a little and said, “Don’t mind him. Let’s continue.”

    “……”

    Xie Ren had no choice but to hold the betting cup and shook two more hands. Unsurprisingly, this time, two “fives” came out.

    Seeing this, the ghosts were even happier, teasing Lang Qianqiu even more crazily, saying, “See? It’s getting bigger and bigger!”

    And Xie Ren had long since realized that this was Hua Cheng leading him on. He cried and laughed a little, thinking to himself that there really was no such thing as a correct posture in the world at all, and that to someone like him, any posture was wrong, and that he could completely give up any thoughts of transit in the future. He was about to give up on himself and shake it one last time when Hua Cheng said, “Wait a minute.”

    Xie Ren felt his palm over his hand press slightly heavier, stopped his movements and said, “What’s wrong?”

    Flower City said half-heartedly, “This brother, it seems you haven’t said what to do if you lose?”

    Hearing him call Xie Ren “brother”, Shi Qingxuan and Lang Qianqiu’s expressions were really hard to describe. The group of ghosts were all creeped out, and a few of them were so scared that their heads fell to the ground.

    To say it is also embarrassed, just now in the heat of the moment, Xie Ren indeed did not think about the issue of betting, said, “This ……”

    What he had originally thought was to also bet ten years of his life span, but the life span of a cleric, that’s a long time, and ten years probably doesn’t count for much at all. Silver money and treasures? Doesn’t exist. Mana and spiritual power? Doesn’t exist. For a moment, Xie Ren surprisingly couldn’t think of anything to bet on, so he had to ask the owner of the gambling house. He said, “What do you think, what do I have on me, that is worth using as a bet?”

    At those words, Flower City smiled.

    He said, “I don’t care. What do you have with you?”

    Xie Ren thought about it, coughed lightly, and said truthfully, “I …… came out this time, and only brought an uneaten steamed bun on my body.”

    At those words, Hua Cheng puffed and laughed. While he laughed, the others wanted to laugh but didn’t dare to.

    After laughing, Hua Cheng nodded once and said, “Okay. Just that steamed bun.”

    When these words came out, not only the group of ghosts, but also the ladies who were in charge of the gambling tables were shocked.

    Since this gambling house opened, there have been countless kinds of incredible bets. There were internal organs, longevity, emotions, and abilities. However, no bet was as incredible as today’s: an uneaten steamed bun. Even Lang Qianqiu couldn’t help it and said in shock, “What does …… this mean? Do you mean that I …… I am only worth one uneaten steamed bun???”

    The group of ghosts heckled, and someone yelled, “What’s wrong with a steamed bun? It’s cheap, don’t shut up yet!” Xie Ren heard out that this crashing voice was none other than Shi Qingxuan who was hiding amongst the group of ghosts. Just as he was crowing, Hua Cheng said to him, “Come. It’s the last hand, don’t be nervous.”

    Xie Ren said, “I’m not nervous.”

    The two of them still maintained the position of palms over the backs of their hands and shook a few hands. Although Xie Ren was indeed not very nervous, his palm against the betting cup, as well as the back of his hand against Hua Cheng, still seemed to be seeping out a hidden layer of thin sweat. Finally, the two men’s movements came to a halt, and when the moment came to reveal the winner, he took a light breath and opened it up to see-

    Two dice, two sixes!

    Xie Ren sighed in relief, realizing what was going on, and raised her eyes to look at Hua Cheng. Hua Cheng raised an eyebrow and said, “Wow, I lost.”

    He admitted defeat with this cry, and although he was serious, he was insincere. The ghosts under the hall were also silent.

    Just now there were people muttering underneath, “This one doesn’t count, so when does it count?” Now, the answer is out: it doesn’t count until this one wins.

    That’s a crazy way to let go!

    However, not a single person would say anything about it. The woman held over the black wooden gambling cup and raised it high, saying, “Congratulations, this gentleman, this game, is yours to win.”

    Everyone was very facetious and yelled, “The City Lord lost perfectly even when he lost! Beautiful!”

    “The one who won wasn’t even taught by the City Lord’s hand, and the win was a good one for the City Lord!”

    “Yeah! What an eye-opener today, learning the proper position for shaking the dice! Benefited a lot! It won’t be used up in ten years!”

    Listening to the sound of a group of demons dancing around him, Xie Ren couldn’t help but laugh. Seeing him laugh, Hua Cheng also laughed and ruffled the red Aman. At this time, Lang Qianqiu said from above, “Since you’ve lost, it’s time to let me down!”

    Hua Cheng was still staring at Xie Ren, his smile unchanged, and without raising his eyes for a moment, he just raised his hand and casually waved it, and Lang Qianqiu immediately slammed down hard and heavy. That loud bang was so loud that Xie Ren’s eyes twitched at the sound of it. Shi Qingxuan couldn’t be exposed and couldn’t rush over yet, so Xie Ren turned around, leaned down to check, and said, “Are you alright.”

    Lang Qianqiu climbed up, patted the ash on his body and said, “It’s fine, thank you. He must have let you go up there because he wanted to cheat and make you lose, luckily you won the bet!”

    Xie Ren thought to himself, “This you are completely wrong, if he does not give me a water release, I just bet to the end of the earth and the sky can not win back you ……”

    Just as he was thinking, he suddenly heard a few “ding ding” sounds, and then, a low cry of surprise came from all around. Xie Ren turned around to take a look, but it turned out to be Hua Cheng who finally stepped out from behind the red veil.

    Before the juvenile form, flower city are crooked bundled long hair, at this time is the red clothes cover, black hair scattered, handsome in the demonic atmosphere. Only the right side of the knot a strand of very thin pigtails, to red coral beads pendant corner, but with a few points of playfulness. Wrist guard is silver, boots chain is silver, belt is also silver, waist hanging a slender slender scimitar, arc smooth and treacherous, is also silver. The blade was slender, and so was the man. He leaned vainly beside the half-open red veil, holding his arms, with a smile on his face, saying, “Brother, you won me.”

    Xie Ren, of course, knew exactly what was going on, and helplessly said, “Don’t laugh at me.”

    Flower City raised an eyebrow, “No. How?”

    The group of ghosts below, on the other hand, were so excited that the boiling water tumbled around, all excited and whispering, “Why did the City Lord change his skin again today?”

    “Dying, I’m dying with this new handsome skin of the City Lord, fresh and strong!”

    “Dead what dead, aren’t you already dead dead dead bitch?!”

    It seemed that because Flower City never showed his true face to the public and frequently changed his appearance, resulting in even the ghosts in the Ghost Market not being able to figure out what he really looked like, and all thought that this appearance was also a fake skin that he wore. However, only Xie Ren knew in her heart that what was in front of her must be the real face of the legendary Blood Rain Scout.
