Volume 2: The Two Great Prideful Ones (Part 1) Chapter 50: The Greatest Gamble
The man was tall and big, with a face like the bottom of a pot, eyes like copper bells, a big beard, and a pair of eyebrows like coarse brushes.
He was wearing a ragged, loose robe, which was similar to Su Weiyun's tattered clothes. Combined with his muscular physique, he looked incredibly tough and ferocious.
"Fuck you, now that I've met you four bastards here, I have no choice but to take a gamble!"
The man had a loud and clear voice, and his words were like ringing bells in one's ears, making them buzz!
As the Jinling Three Swords were unsheathed, the voice blurted out: "Xuanyuan Three Lights!"
Even though they had never seen Xuanyuan Sanguan's true face before, they should know who the visitor was by now.
The Xuanyuan Three Lights were clearly coming up from the bottom of the mountain, but to the four people it felt as if they were looking down from a high vantage point. They were tall and strong, and their aura was extremely strong!
He pointed at Su Weiyun and the other three and said with a smile, "So it's the Three Turtle Grandsons of Jinling, and a Beggar Gang disciple. All right, all of you come and bet with me!"
Only then did Su Weiyun realize that although his right hand was intact, only the thumb and index finger were left on his left hand.
The three Jinling swordsmen's expressions changed a little, and they said, "You evil gambler, do you really gamble with everyone you meet? Do you really have to gamble with us three brothers this time?"
Xuanyuan Sanguang waved his hands and said, "I don't gamble with everyone I meet. I gamble with everyone I meet! And I have to gamble until dawn, until everyone is gone, and until I lose everything!"
I won’t stop gambling until dawn, until everyone has left, and until I have lost everything in my pocket.
The sky was bright, the people were bright, and everything was lost.
This is why he is called "Xuanyuan Sanguang".
One of the Jinling Three Swordsmen stepped forward and said, "What if we don't want to gamble?"
Xuanyuan Sanguang chuckled, stared at the man viciously, and said, "Are you the third of the Jinling Three Swords? It's okay if you don't bet, then you can die!"
The third Jinling said angrily: "How can you be so overbearing as to force people to gamble?!"
Xuanyuan Sanguang said angrily, "I am a tyrant, otherwise how can I be called the 'Ten Evil Men'?! Okay, I just wanted to gamble a little with you sons of bitches, but now I have changed my mind!"
"What's your change of mind?"
"Betting on life! I want to bet on your life!"
The second of the Three Swordsmen of Jinling said nothing, but suddenly took action, flew forward, and stabbed out with a sword.
He was in the air, moving his arms, and shone the golden sword towards the person reflected in the scorching sun.
The strong sword light shot directly into Xuanyuan Sanguang's eyes.
This was a trick played by Jinling Lao Er. He used the strong sunlight to reflect into the enemy's eyes. Any normal person would be dazzled. At this time, it would be much easier for him to draw his sword and hurt the enemy.
The light really shone into Xuanyuan Sanguang's eyes, and the sunlight was blinding!
The other two members of the Jinling Three Swords showed joy on their faces.
Bang!
Jinling Lao Er flew backwards at an even faster speed, spurting out a large mouthful of blood.
Xuanyuan Sanguang didn't even need to look at him, he just slapped him away!
"You son of a bitch, you are so dishonest, you are always playing tricks!"
The third of the Three Swordsmen of Jinling was so angry that his eyes were bloodshot and he cried out in grief. He was about to rush forward to fight for his life with Xuanyuan Sanguang, but he was held back tightly by the eldest swordsman of Jinling.
"As long as there is life, there is no need to worry about running out of firewood. Let's make a bet with him, win his life and avenge Lao Er!"
Jinling Lao San thought for a moment and said, "Okay, we won his life!"
Xuanyuan Sanguang said, "Your bet is your life, but mine is not."
The Jinling boss asked in a deep voice: "What is your bet?"
Xuanyuan Sanguang said: "My bet is one of my fingers. If I lose, I will chop off one of my fingers!"
The third brother of Jinling laughed in anger and said, "If we lose, you will bet our lives. If you lose, you will only chop off one finger?"
Xuanyuan Sanguang also said angrily: "Do you think my finger is not as important as your life?!"
The Jinling boss suddenly said, "Let's gamble. He only has ten fingers. We will have to gamble away all the fingers eventually!"
He was full of confidence, and his intention was to leave all of Xuanyuan Sanguang's fingers here.
"How do you bet?"
Xuanyuan Sanguang said: "I set the bet, and you decide the rules. It's fair!"
A sly look flashed in the eyes of the Jinling boss, and he said, "How about a bigger or smaller one?"
There were many red-light districts, brothels and gambling houses in Jinling, and he was obviously very well versed in this.
Xuanyuan Sanguang said: "Okay."
Jinling Old Master: "I only have gold in my arms, no gambling equipment."
Xuanyuan Sanguang said: "Of course I have dice here, you son of a bitch, do you want to play with me?"
"That's exactly what I meant."
Su Weiyun stood nearby and watched, with a broad smile on his face, looking relaxed and carefree, as if he didn't take this "unprecedented evil bet" seriously at all.
Jinling Old Avenue: "You throw first!"
Xuanyuan Sanguang excitedly threw three dice and stared at the red dot that kept spinning until it stopped!
Five, five, four.
This number is by no means small.
The boss of Jinling didn't care at all. He took the dice and threw it to the ground.
Beep beep!
The three dice stopped almost at the same time, and the side facing up of each dice was exactly "six"!
Three “sixes” actually make it a very rare leopard!
The Jinling boss sneered: "You lose!"
Xuanyuan Sanguang cursed: "You son of a bitch, you cheated!"
The third brother of Jinling argued: "Why do you say we cheated? You can't win the bet yourself..."
Xuanyuan Sanguang cursed: "Betting on treachery and slipperiness is better than betting on fraud! You damn bastards don't even know this basic rule, what the hell are you gambling on!"
He flew up and attacked, hitting the Jinling boss on the head with two hammer-like fists. This one blow ended the fight.
The third brother of Jinling was shocked and angry: "I'm willing to admit defeat. You have no evidence..."
Xuanyuan Sanguang was furious. He stretched out his hand and grabbed him like a chicken, saying, "I have gambled countless times in my life. Don't you think you are cheating?"
He slapped the third brother so hard that he fainted.
Xuanyuan Sanguang was still not satisfied, so he kicked him hard in the heart.
The third brother groaned and died.
The Three Swordsmen of Jinling were also famous swordsmen in the martial arts world, but they were easily slaughtered in the mountains by the Three Lights .
Of the four "turtle sons", only Su Weiyun is left.
Su Weiyun looked at him and said with a grin, "Are you very angry? Because they cheated and still refused to admit it?"
Xuanyuan Sanguang spat and cursed, "I'm just angry because I haven't satisfied my gambling addiction!"
Su Weiyun asked: "You still want to gamble with me?"
Xuanyuan Sanguang said: "Bet! Damn it, how can we not bet?!"
"Not only do I want to gamble, I want to gamble your life! You are a bastard for hanging out with those three. If you lose, I will take your life too!"
Su Weiyun only asked: "You make the bet, but should I decide the rules?"
Xuanyuan Sanguang said: "Yes!"
Su Weiyun said: "Okay, let me tell you how to bet, and see if it's fair or not!"
Xuanyuan Sanguang said : "You say!"
Su Weiyun said: "I want to guess."
Xuanyuan Sanguang immediately asked: "What do you want to guess? Big or small, odd or even, or the number of points?!"
He shook the dice in his hand.
Su Weiyun said: "Guess the heart!"
Xuanyuan Sanguang asked puzzledly: "Guessing the mind?"
"What I want to guess is what you are thinking about right now. If I guess wrong, you don't have to do anything. I will send you my head."
Xuanyuan Sanguan was stunned. He really didn't expect Su Weiyun to come up with such a strange bet.
"Hahahaha, I've been gambling for so many years, and I've never seen such a stupid way of gambling? Are you so desperate that you're coming to me to commit suicide?!"
Only Xuanyuan Sanguang had the final say on what he was thinking - even if Su Weiyun really guessed it right, he could just make up a story and say that Su Weiyun was not right.
Xuanyuan Sanguang added: "But don't worry. I hate cheating the most in my life. If you really have the ability to guess what I'm thinking, I will never deny it!"
Su Weiyun said: "I told you what you were thinking, you can deny it. But you can never act according to what I said."
Xuanyuan Sanguang laughed and said, "Of course. If I say that your guess is wrong and I do the same thing myself, wouldn't that make me a complete idiot?"
"But if you guess wrong, you will die!"
Su Weiyun frowned and thought, then spoke very slowly.
"I guess what you're thinking is: 'You're going to kill me next.'"
Xuanyuan Sanguang laughed loudly and said, "I'm wrong, I'm wrong. What I was thinking just now was that I actually met that enchanting woman Xiao Mimi in Shu. It's really..."
His voice suddenly stopped.
"Tell me again, what did you guess?"
Su Weiyun continued, word by word: "I guess what you are thinking is that you will definitely kill me next!"
This sentence is very subtle.
If Xuanyuan Sanguang killed Su Weiyun, it would prove that Su Weiyun had guessed it right. Because this was what they had agreed on beforehand - Xuanyuan Sanguang could not do what Su Weiyun said, otherwise it would be considered as guessed right.
Xuanyuan Sanguang scratched his head, extremely confused, almost to the point of breaking his head.
After a long while, he said again: "If I kill you, I will lose, so I can't kill you!"
"But if I don't kill you, does that mean you're wrong and you lose?"
Xuanyuan Sanguang looked at Su Weiyun and asked.
"no."
Su Weiyun said calmly: "You were thinking about killing me just now, but now you don't have to think so."
"We only agreed that if you want to win, you can't do what I said; but we didn't agree that if you lose, you must do what I guessed."
Xuanyuan Sanguang was confused and could only say, "Does this mean that I can neither kill you nor win again?"
Su Weiyun smiled and said, "That's right, you are absolutely right, absolutely right."
