The years when I was an old man

I moved slowly, wiping my hands carefully.

This move of mine made Zou Tiansheng somewhat dissatisfied.

He couldn't help urging on the side:

"Can you hurry up?"

I simply ignore him.

After wiping my hands, I started wiping the dice again.

After tossing for more than ten minutes, I returned the towel to the waiter.

Zhuo Yizhi is very calm, he has been looking at me quietly.

There was no change in the expression on his face, nor did he urge me.

"Mr. Zhuo, you can start!"

Zhuo Yi nodded, Li Zizi said loudly:

"In the game of dice, both parties roll together, the one with the smaller number of points wins, let's start!"

Holding the dice cup, Zhuo Yizhi and I looked at each other.

Suddenly, both of us moved at the same time.

Hearing a "wow", the dice fluttered on the table and entered their respective dice cups.

While shaking the dice, I stared at Zhuo Yizhi.

It must be said that Zhuo Yizhi is indeed a master.

Push left and right, shake up and down.

His movements are chic, yet fierce.

While I was shaking it, I was also listening to the sound in Zhuo Yizhi's dice cup.

The sound of his dice in the dice cup began to become regular and neat.

Compared to him, the voice in my dice cup is still a bit messy.

The action is also a little clumsy.

Everyone present held their breath.

He stared at the two of us intently.

Especially Zou Xiaoxian and Zou Tiansheng, the siblings were even more nervous.

After all, this game is related to the ultimate fate of the two.

"receive!"

Zhuo Yizhi suddenly shouted.

His sudden sound shocked me.

Then, "snap".

Zhuo Yizhi's dice cup had landed firmly on the table.

All eyes were on me.

From the point of view of the scene, I was already at a disadvantage in this game.

After all, Zhuo Yizhi rolled the dice first.

I stopped being distracted, and my hands increased.

The dice cup drew several arcs in midair.

Then, a move of "Qi Penetrating Changhong".

Just listen to the dice in the dice cup, making a uniform sound.

And the dice cup was firmly placed on the table.

At this moment, I let out a long breath.

I didn't hear what time Zhuo Yizhi was shaking.

But I feel that my points should not be lost.

Li Zizi glanced at Zhuo Yi and me, and said:

"Let's roll the dice!"

The voice fell.

There was a sudden silence in the hall.

Everyone has their own thoughts, staring at our two dice cups intently.

Some people are nervous about me.

There are also some people who are sweating with their fingers for Zhuo.

Of course, more people are still watching the excitement.

"I'll come first!"

Zhuo smiled lightly.

Then, he slowly picked up the dice cup.

"Wow!"

As soon as the dice lit up, everyone couldn't help exclaiming in low voices.

A pillar to the sky.

Zhuo Yizhi's dice were neatly arranged in a vertical line.

But it's just that it's just a pillar of the sky, it's not enough to make people so amazed.

After all, many cheaters can do this job.

The most amazing thing is the corner (a vertex) of the top dice.

It actually stood firmly on one point of the dice below.

At this time, the dice stand in a rhombus shape.

What is exposed at the top is only a corner.

This also means that the points Zhuo Yizhi shakes out are zero points.

Under such circumstances, it is impossible for me to win him.

A tie is already the best situation.

Zou Tiansheng on the side saw this situation.

He was so relieved that he couldn't help laughing.

Pointing at me, he exclaimed:

"Chu [-], aren't you very good? Let me see how you win this time?"

I ignored him.

Put your hand on the dice cup and slowly open it.

Everyone around me was extremely nervous.

They clenched their fists and stared at my hands with open eyes.

After all, the stakes are too high this time.

If there is a slight mistake, even if you can not die, you will lose half your life.

The dice cup slowly opened, when everyone saw my dice.

There was another exclamation in the hall.

No one thought that my dice were exactly the same as Zhuo Yizhi's.

A pillar to the sky.

The top dice also stands on a point of the lower dice.

A rhombus is formed, and I'm also zero.

This round was tied.

Some people may think that the surface of the dice is so smooth, how can it stand on another dice?

Actually, it can be done.

If you have two dice on hand.

You can place a dice on the table with the red point facing up.

Put the corner of another dice on one point.

You will find that it can be done.

Seeing that both of us are at zero, Li Zizi waved his hand and said:

"Both sides are zero points, this round, and!"

But at this moment, Zhuo Yizhi was obviously different from the others.

Others were surprised, disappointed, or delighted.

But Zhuo Yizhi had a puzzled look on his face.

He stared at me for a while, then asked:

"You know Melo?"

Mello?

I was shocked when I heard it.

How did Zhuo Yizhi know my father's name?

Before I could speak, Zhuo Yizhi immediately said to himself again:

"According to your age, it shouldn't be..."

I suppressed the curiosity in my heart and asked back:

"Do you know him, and what does it have to do with this dice game?"

I pretended to be indifferent on purpose.

But in his heart, he was overwhelmed.

Zhuo Yizhi looked at the dice in front of me and asked again:

"Do you know what the scientific name of this tilted dice trick is?"

I shook my head.

I am not lying.

When Liu Ye taught me, he didn't tell me the name of this trick.

Afterwards, Master Liu and I traveled all over the world, but we have never seen anyone do this before.

"This is called Feng Li Yun!"

Zhuo Yizhi explained.

"It's Melo's original way of rolling dice back then. It was also with this phoenix standing in the clouds that he won Ting Sic Party's trick of stacking arhats in Nanyue..."

I do know about tower stacked arhats.

It is to stack the dice together in a layered manner.

The top one is sandwiched between two dice, forming a slash.

Looking at it this way, it is also zero.

It's just tower stacks, only for six dice.

Once there are too many dice, it is completely useless.

Because, the dice below cannot be completely covered, which will result in revealing the points.

"Then you learned this hand from Melo?"

I asked again.

Zhuo Yizhi smiled, shook his head and said:

"I wanted to learn from him, but unfortunately I didn't have that chance. At the beginning, Melo and the people who listened to the dice party were just competing with each other. After the winner was decided, the two became friends. Melo took this job, Taught it to Ting Dice Party. I learned this hand from him. But as far as I know, there are no more than five people in the world who know how to do this hand! Among them, you and I are included!"
