***********************************
At the current, Jun Xie, Meng Haizou, Meng Fei, Li Feng, and Li Zhen are participating in the gamble.
Tang Yuan was already wiped clean and was only qualified to watch by the side.
As for Dugu Xiaoyi, who came with an overbearing attitude, she did not have enough money on her. Without enough money, even the emperor will not be given any face, and can only sit by the side as a spectator. Her face was flushed red and covered with shame.
Jun Mo Xie glanced at Dugu Xiaoyi's embarrassed face and smiled playfully. How can he not take advantage of such a powerful backer? After all, bringing her here was for a certain purpose.
"Miss Dugu is a female, it is only natural that you do not join in with us. Why doesn't Miss Dugu play across the board?"
"What is playing across the board?" Dugu Xiaoyi's eyes lit up.
"The so-called playing across the board is making an outside bet. This means that even though you are not participating in this gamble, you can still make a bet! For example, you can make a bet of five silver liangs on me to win. If I lose, then I would have dragged you down, and you would have lost those five silver liangs. That way, both sides lose. But if I were to win, then your returns, including interest, would be ten silver liangs," Jun Mo Xie explained carefully.
"Very well!" Dugu Xiaoyi's mood soared. "In the first round, I will bet five... Five liangs on you!"
Jun Mo Xie laughed aloud. "With a beauty betting on me, my luck will undoubtedly rise!"
Li Feng, who was observing everything, sneered in his heart. 'Go ahead and laugh, you are about to cry very soon!'
Everyone had already thrown the dice, leaving only Jun Mo Xie.
The one currently in the lead was Meng Haizou with one dice at six points and two dice at five points, sixteen points in total. This was quite a high number of points! The only way to beat him was to get either eighteen points or seventeen points.
Li Feng exposed a triumphant look on his face. As long as Meng Haizou became the banker, then the chances of grasping onto Jun Moxie would be assured. They would ensure that Jun Moxie lost to the point of leaving without his pants! Once he had lost to the point of madness, then the plan would smoothly advance onwards.
Jun Mo Xie gathered the three dice into his hand, his face filled with smiles, but in his heart, he was cursing. 'Ohh! Interesting. Not only did they add something to the tea earlier, but they had even tampered with the dice! Hmm... it seems like mercury. Hehe... let us play brat. Today, I will make you all very miserable.'
Jun Mo Xie grinned with a spin of his wrist. He tossed the three dice into the dice cup, causing it to collide with a sound. At the same time, Jun Mo Xie's right hand was on the table, issuing out a thin strand of qi, as thin as a needle. The thin strand of qi stretched mysteriously without anyone noticing towards the dice cup...
Everyone's breath was held as they watched with wide-open eyes.
The three dice rolled down for a bit before stopping.
"This... How is this possible?" Li Zhen cried out as he stared with a depressed look.
Meng Haizou's group issued a sigh of disappointment.
Tang Yuan was the only one who cheered, laughing and dancing happily.
Two dice at six points and one dice at five points! It was just one point higher than Meng Haizou's dice roll.
Meng Haizou's group had their hopes dashed and could only look at Jun Moxie in shock.
'Jun Moxie, this bastard must have stepped on some lucky dog poop today!'
Jun Mo Xie cried out in delight. "Haha, Miss Dugu truly is a bringer of good luck. You have graced me with prosperity. Today, this senior will start a bloodbath!"
He then grasped the dice cup in his hands, which shook as he urged. "Put down your bet, put down your bet, quickly put down your bet!"
An impatient look was expressed on his face.
Pa!
Jun Mo Xie slammed the dice cup on the table, letting go of his hand immediately. The other hand, though, was gently placed on the table, his face seemingly tense. However, his internal energy had already reached the dice cup, ready for action!
Li Feng and the rest turned towards Meng Haizou.
Amongst all of them here, Meng Haizou was the most proficient in gambling. His skills in listening to the dice movements were particularly high, especially when the dice were ones he had prepared himself.
Everyone here was simmering in excitement, just waiting to strip Jun Mo Xie of everything he had.
Meng Haizou's set of closed eyes was opened, and he smiled confidently. "Big!"
His hands grabbed fifty thousand silver bills and placed them onto the big section.
Li Feng and the rest followed suit, their faces expressing excitement as they awaited what would happen next.
Watching all this, Tang Yuan felt shocked. He knew that Jun Mo Xie had only brought a total of fifty thousand silver bills with him this time. If he lost this round, then he would not even be able to pay everyone.
This was bad!
Jun Mo Xie's internal energy moved, causing the dice to turn over silently. He leisurely shouted. "All bets have been decided! I'm opening it now."
He opened the dice cup to reveal one dice with two points, and two dice with one point, totaling up to only four points.
Small!
Meng Haizou's face turned pale! How was this possible? He had obviously heard the dice movement indicating that at least one of the three dice had the value of six points. The chance of the results being big was at least ninety percent.
However, when the result was revealed, not a single die had a six-point.
Could he have made a mistake and misheard a one for a six?
Without any modesty, Jun Mo Xie collected everyone's silver bills towards his side. He then gave Dugu Xiaoyi ten silver liangs, before adding an extra one thousand liangs. "Miss Dugu, congratulations! As thanks for your good fortune, please take this one thousand liangs as a bonus!"
Dugu Xiaoyi received the silver bill with her small hands, her big eyes narrowing into a thin line from her joyful face. She patted Jun Mo Xie's shoulder with an extremely righteous demeanor. "Well done! Little Jun, I will bet on you again in the next round! I will wager in this one thousand Liang as well!"
She completely forgot that this person before her was the one she fervently detested, a super debauchee...
