There was a crowd around the gaming table.

Whispers continued:

[Brother Xiong is known as the ghost hand, and he has never lost when rolling dice...]

【This old man is going to fall into trouble】

[Just watch, I’m afraid I’ll lose my granddaughter to it]

Shangguan Feiyan was so nervous that her palms were sweating.

Lin Xiao looked calm, as if he was determined to win.

Xiong Tian took out a small silver ingot from his arms and slapped it on the table with a bang: "Old man, bet with me, starting from ten taels, do you dare?"

The silver ingot shone coldly under the oil lamp, a full ten taels.

Onlookers groaned.

"Okay." Lin Xiao also took out ten taels and put them on the table.

The first game begins.

Xiong Tian picked up the dice cup, his wrists flew, and the dice clattered in the cup like a gust of wind and rain.

He had a proud smile on his face. He had practiced this technique for ten years and rarely failed.

Lin Xiao just picked up the dice cup casually, shook it three times, and then put it on the table.

[Ding, it has been detected that the host has been illegally violated, and we are now providing warm help]

[In the next four rounds, the host can choose any one to lose to the opponent]

Lin Xiao raised the corner of his mouth slightly and prepared to open the cup.

"So casual?" Xiong Tian sneered.

"Compared with you, there is no need to look." Lin Xiao said lightly, "Just open it blindly."

"Okay!" Xiong Tian also took the dice cup, "I'll do it blindly too!"

They both revealed it at the same time.

Xiong Tian: Two, three, five, ten o'clock.

Lin Xiao: Two, three, six, eleven o'clock.

Just a little bigger.

"Win!" Shangguan Feiyan shouted happily and quickly gathered the twenty taels of silver.

Xiong Tian's face turned pale. He had never produced such a low score before.

"Come again!" He gritted his teeth and took out another large silver ingot, fifty taels.

Lin Xiao raised his eyebrows: "It seems that I have been bullying men and dominating women over the years and amassing a lot of money. Today I will make you spit it out."

In the second game, Lin Xiao still opened blindly.

Revealed: Three Fives.

Shangguan Feiyan's eyes lit up, this was already huge.

But Xiong Tian opened the dice cup with a grim smile: Three sixes, leopard.

"Hahaha!" Xiong Tian pointed at Lin Xiao's nose, "Old man, do you know how powerful he is?"

Lin Xiao was in disbelief, his lips trembled slightly, his eyes straightened, pretending to be panicked.

"Old man, let's stop gambling..." Shangguan Feiyan cried and pulled his arm, "Please..."

"Go away!" Lin Xiao shook her hand away, his eyes red, "I want to win it back!"

Seeing this, Xiong Tian laughed even more crazily: "The next game starts at sixty taels. Do you still have money?"

Lin Xiao counted the silver in his pocket and found only fifty taels left.

Xiong Tian licked his lips and stared at Shangguan Feiyan: "Okay, how about I stake the little lady next to you and I'll make another bet with you?"

Lin Xiao looked at Shangguan Feiyan.

She was shaking and shaking her head desperately.

Lin Xiao touched her head and smiled slightly: "Don't worry, the old man won't use you as a bet."

He turned around and called the casino steward: "Borrow me ten taels."

The person in charge was a tall and thin man. He looked at Lin Xiao for a few times and shook his head: "What should you do if you are not old enough... at your age?"

Lin Xiao slashed the butcher's knife on the table with a clang, his eyes sharp: "I am a hunter, and I can just sell a wild boar for a hundred taels. Do you think I can't afford it?"

The steward was frightened by the murderous aura and turned around to go up to the second floor.

He came back after a while and put ten taels of silver on the table: "The interest is three cents, and the period is ten days."

"Okay."

Lin Xiao pushed all sixty pieces onto the table.

Shangguan Feiyan's face was ashen and she regretted that she should not have come in.

"Let's start!" Xiong Tian couldn't wait.

The two rolled the dice.

This time Lin Xiao took a look, one, two, three, six o'clock.

When Shangguan Feiyan saw this, her eyes darkened. Six o'clock was simply too small...

However, Lin Xiao suddenly went against the norm and asked: "Do you want to raise the bet?"

Xiong Tian laughed: "It seems that your points are not small? Add! How much more?"

"Add another forty taels."

The whole place was in an uproar. Shangguan Feiyan knew that he could not persuade him, so he could only silently shed tears of despair.

The steward presented another forty taels.

The bets were piled into a small mountain, a total of one hundred taels.

Xiong Tian followed suit and emptied his wallet.

Lin Xiao was the first to open the dice cup: one, two, three, six o'clock.
