The years when I was an old man

??

"If you lose, you lose. How can there be no reason?"

I said lightly.

But Su Mei sneered.

"Although I don't know a thousand skills, it doesn't mean I'm a fool. Of the six dice rolled by Uncle Tian, ​​the top one is one point, but the five points below are all messed up. And the six dice you rolled , although I didn't see what the top number is. But the side I can see, the number of points on the five dice, are all the same. With your technique alone, it is impossible for you to lose to Uncle Tian... ..."

Su Mei said.

It refers to the side she saw when I opened the dice cup, the points were all the same.

I was a little surprised.

Su Mei is very smart.

She was right.

I did lose to Uncle Tian on purpose.

At the very beginning, I wanted to show off in front of Zou Xiaoxian.

In this way, it is also good to negotiate terms with her.

But after entering the VIP room.

I see something is not right.

It is said that a master came to the casino and kept winning money.

People in the casino should be nervous.

But Zou Xiaoxian's state is very relaxed.

It's completely a look of watching the fun.

Although Su Mei's expression was nothing special.

But when Uncle Tian won so many rounds in a row, she actually asked for a raise of 50 in one round.

The only people who could go to the casino at that time were Gao Zhiqiang and me.

I guessed it.

These should all be requested by Zou Xiaoxian.

Raising the bet can examine the psychological quality of both of us.

After all, a gamble of 50, and a gamble of [-].

In terms of psychological endurance, it is definitely not the same.

As for why I deliberately lost to Uncle Tian.

the reason is simple.

Last time the casino caught thousands.

It caused me a lot of trouble.

Centipedes, starlings, and the people behind starlings.

And this time, if I win Uncle Tian.

Or, draw with him.

I don't know what trouble it will bring me next.

My current strength is not enough to fight against this world.

Therefore, I must lose to him.

Liu Ye once said.

Old Qian, you must know how to guard your clumsiness and hide your stupidity.

To be a human being, you must know how to keep a low profile.

I thought I lied to everyone.

Unexpectedly, Su Mei noticed it.

Of course, I can't explain it, let alone admit it.

I changed the subject on purpose.

"Sister Mei, I want to trouble you with something..."

"what's up?"

"I want to borrow some money from you..."

"How many?"

"20 million!"

"20?"

Su Mei was a little shocked.

20 is not a small sum for Su Mei.

After all, she was only working for Zou Xiaoxian.

After being silent for a while, Su Mei asked again:

"You have a game, are you going to gamble?"

I shook my head.

"No, help me! Within three months, I will pay off the principal with interest..."

Listen to me, even with interest.

Su Mei smiled.

"Okay, send me the card number, and I'll transfer it to you later..."

It's ridiculous to think about.

I walked alone for half a year.

Not a penny was earned.

Instead, it owed 20 foreign debts.

Because he deliberately lost to Uncle Tian.

There is no way to discuss the conditions with Zou Xiaoxian.

I'm still a waiter.

And the most urgent thing for me now is to make money.

Hei didn't find any good results there either.

We discussed it and decided to go to the chess and card room in Old Street.

Although here, cheaters often come and go.

But fortunately, Lao Hei is familiar with it.

My heart will also be more at ease.

In some places, no matter how the outside world changes with each passing day.

And it still maintains the original taste.

Old Street, that's it.

Familiar sounds of cooking, children crying, husband and wife arguing, and the sound of punching between cups of wine.

This kind of human fireworks always gives people a kind feeling.

In the old street, there is no parking place.

Old Hei parked his car on the side of the street.

Walk to the chess room.

The two of us decided to pretend to be Cengfan first.

When it's about the same time, go upstairs to find a bureau that can be engaged.

As soon as I entered, there were already many people sitting in the greasy restaurant.

When the manager saw Lao Hei, he smiled and greeted him.

"Old Hei, I heard that you won a lot last time, did you win again today?"

"If you win an egg, the money will be gone long ago. I'm here for dinner today. Come on, arrange some good dishes for me..."

"Got it!"

The steward agreed and went to arrange meals.

While waiting for the food to be served.

Suddenly, a voice came from behind.

"Hey, you two boys, are you showing affection? Instead of continuing to fight, you came here to eat together..."

turn back.

I saw an old man with silver hair and holding a half-moon purple clay pot, walking in swaggeringly.

Hei and I both know this old man.

It's the old Mr. Wu next to the supermarket.

When I was singled out with Lao Hei.

He is the one who can make fun of Yangzi the most.

It's just that today, old Mr. Wu dressed up in style.

A bright red linen double-breasted Tang suit.

On the chest, there is also a big "wealth" embroidered on it.

Silver hair past the ears was also tied into a ponytail.

Still holding his purple clay pot in his hand.

Looking at it, it feels a bit fairy-like.

Old Hei smiled foolishly at Old Head Wu, pointed to the place next to him, and said:

"Grandpa, sit here and have a drink together?"

Old Wu head rolled his eyes, curled his mouth, and said disdainfully:

"My old man is tired of eating delicacies from mountains and seas every day. How can I eat these junk things. Take your time, I'm here to win money today..."

As he spoke, he took out a small wad of hundred-yuan bills from his pocket.

He also deliberately shook it at Old Hei, showing off:

"See, 1000 yuan. It will become 1 yuan in a while..."

The person in charge also knew old Mr. Wu, so he jokingly said:

"Old Wu, you should be careful, don't lose all the coffin..."

Old Wu head curled his lips, pointing to the word "财" on the red Tang suit on his chest, plausible.

"Today the God of Wealth is heading north, and Hong Yaochen is not. It's not bragging, it's even hard for me to lose money today, just wait and see..."

As soon as the words were finished, the old head Wu went upstairs triumphantly.

I had dinner with Lao Hei.

Go straight to the fourth floor.

The poker game here is still hot.

And in the casino, you can see all kinds of things in the world the most.

Winners are elated and impassioned.

Those who lose money will grit their teeth and beat their chests and feet.

Many people here are familiar with Lao Hei.

As soon as he went upstairs, he was called over to smoke and chat by some high-yielding big ear caves.

I just wandered around the game by myself.

I want to see which bureau, it's easier to engage in.

After watching for a while, I found that there are two games that can be played.

Just about to talk to Old Hei.

Suddenly, a person next to me called my name in surprise.

"Sixth day?"

His tone was a little suspicious.

It seems that he is afraid of admitting the wrong person.

But this voice is all too familiar to me.

Once, this voice was a nightmare for me.

So much so that when I hear it now, I feel a chill in my heart.

I turn around.

In the next game of cards, a tall and thin man was looking at me in surprise.

"Fuck, it's really you, the sixth day of the junior high school. I fucking thought you were dead long ago. I didn't expect you to be alive..."

The man laughed as he said that.

Look at his distorted face with a smile.

The painful memories of the past came flooding back in my mind.
