Travel through troubled times and escape famine with the system

The next morning, everyone sat in the lobby of the inn with dull eyes, eating porridge and steamed buns.

The tossing and turning of the past two days has made everyone extremely tired.

It was okay when we were on the road and were on high alert.

But now that I relaxed, the aches and pains all over my body could no longer be suppressed and surged up.

With only a half-night rest, not only did everyone not feel relaxed, but they felt even more tired when they got up.

"Xiaoyi, where is Mr. Guan? Why doesn't he come down?" Zhao Wenbo asked Lu Yi with tired eyes.

Lu Yi put down the bowl of porridge in his hand and said, "Mr. Guan stood by the window all night without sleeping, and just fell asleep at dawn."

"What about the deer?" Zhao Wenbo turned to look at Widow Zhou and asked.

"She said she wanted to sleep a little longer and she won't eat in the morning!"

As Widow Zhou spoke, everyone present looked up at her.

And Lu You, who was in the room on the second floor, suddenly sat up from the bed.

[Negative emotions from Zhao Wenbo +30, +30, +30...]

[Negative emotions from Liu +25...]

[From Hu Laojiu...]

What's the situation?

How could I attract so much hostility when I was sleeping without offending anyone?

Lu You put on his clothes, opened the door and went downstairs. Before he even walked down the stairs, the negative reminder voice in his mind rang again.

Lu You turned his head to look at Widow Zhou and others in the hall, and all he saw were smiling faces.

"Second sister!"

"Is the deer awake?"

"Good morning, Boss..."

Listening to the greetings from the crowd, Lu You sighed in his heart.

It’s true that people’s hearts are hidden!

Coming to the table, Widow Zhou served rice porridge to Lu You, while Hu Laojiu pushed the bowl of pickles in front of Lu You.

"Boss, this side dish is very refreshing, please try it!"

Lu You's eyes swept over Hu Laojiu's wrists and saw that both of his wrists were red. He realized that Lai Shun and Xiao Douzi must have tied him up to death at night.

"I know you feel wronged being tied up, but there's nothing we can do about it."

"We can't sleep well without tying you up!"

As he spoke, Lu You stretched out his hand and pinched out a dice and a small pill.

"Choose one."

Hu Laojiu stared blankly at the small pills and dice on the table.

"Boss, what do you mean?"

"You ate the pill yesterday. It doesn't taste good, but it can cure the disease." Lu You said calmly: "Choose the pill and eat it. Otherwise, you must teach me how to play dice. You must be good at this."

Upon hearing this, Hu Laojiu reached out and grabbed the dice without any hesitation.

He had tasted the taste of the powerful pills yesterday, and now that he had just finished his meal, he didn't want to vomit it out.

"Boss, you have found the right person to teach me how to play dice."

"In the past two years that I have been in Ningguan, apart from patrolling and guarding, I have spent almost all my time playing with money in the barracks."

"This dice is in my hand. I let it be six, and it won't dare to come out..."

Hu Laojiu was bragging about his skills when his voice suddenly stopped.

"Um... Boss, why are all six sides of your dice ones?"

Lu You laughed when he heard this: "Throwing a six with this dice will show how skilled you are!"

[Negative emotions from Hu Laojiu +80, +80, +80...]

Looking at Lu You eating the steamed bun in big mouthfuls, Hu Laojiu's eyes were extremely complicated. For a moment, he couldn't tell whether Lu You was joking or deliberately making things difficult for him.

"Throw it!" Seeing that Hu Laojiu was hesitant to move, Lu You urged.

Upon hearing this, Hu Laojiu did not hesitate. He picked up the dice between two fingers, flicked it lightly and threw it directly on the table.

In the eyes of everyone, Hu Laojiu just threw the dice straight. According to common sense, the dice should have hit the table, bounced off, and fell directly to the ground.

But at the moment when the dice touched the table, it twisted for no apparent reason and began to spin.

Hu Laojiu stared at the dice with complete concentration.

"six!!"

As he shouted, Hu Laojiu slammed his hand heavily on the table.

The dice was gently bounced up, shook a few times, and then lay on the ground.

"It's six o'clock!!"

The little Bean next to him jumped up and shouted.

Everyone looked at the black dice in surprise at this time, it was actually six!

"How is this possible? Aren't there dots on all six sides of the dice?" Widow Zhou asked in surprise.

Lu You stared at the dice in a daze. He was confused for a while before he looked at Hu Laojiu in surprise.

"Where are my dice? When did you change them?"

Hearing Lu You's question, Hu Laojiu gently turned over his right hand, and the dice that kept his word was clamped between his ring finger and middle finger.

"This move is called give and take, and it is the most commonly used method of cheating."

Hu Laojiu said proudly, and then took out a bulging small cloth bag from his arms as if he was presenting a treasure.

"Boss, look at all these goodies I have!"

Hu Laojiu put the cloth bag on the table and opened it. Inside was full of dice of different colors, sizes, and materials.

"No... why do you carry so many dice?" Lai Shun on the side asked curiously.

Hu Laojiu picked up the dice he had replaced on the table and put them back into the cloth bag.

"This is my last resort to survive."

"As long as there are people gambling, I can choose a pair of dice from this bag that is similar to the ones they use and cheat."

"But I never dare to win much, just a few coins to eat."

Hearing Hu Laojiu's words, Lu You frowned slightly: "Nine out of ten gambling cases are frauds, and if you gamble for a long time, you will lose. If you cheat like this, you will be discovered one day."

Hu Laojiu originally thought that Lu You wanted to go to the gambling house to have some fun and hope to make some money.

After all, with a martial artist like Lu You by his side, it wouldn't be a big problem even if he was caught cheating.

But now Lu You's tone of voice made him realize that he must have been overthinking.

"Boss, if you don't want to gamble, why do you want to learn how to play dice?" Hu Laojiu asked tentatively.

"Just throw it when I tell you to. Why are you talking so much nonsense?" Lu You said impatiently, "Don't change it this time. Just throw my dice."

Hearing Lu You's words, Lu Yi on the opposite side looked at the dice calmly.

He was almost certain that this dice was definitely not simple.

Otherwise, Lu You would never let anyone he caught throw the dice.

Hu Laojiu counted the dice and threw them again. After the dice stopped, he looked at Lu You carefully.

"Boss, we've finished throwing it away."

Hearing this, Lu You turned to look at Hu Laojiu: "You call me Boss, do you really mean it?"

"That must be it!" Hu Laojiu patted his chest to show his loyalty.

"So you listen to everything I say?"

"No matter how hard it is, as long as you say something, I, Hu Laojiu, will obey!"

"Do you keep your word?"

“It has to count!”

Lu You pondered for a moment, then pushed the large coarse porcelain bowl on the table directly in front of Hu Laojiu.

"Then you eat this!"
