Poverty

Chapter 156 Gamblers
Following Li Yanchu's soft drink.

The bodies of several brocade-clothed young masters suddenly trembled.

Then the expression on his face froze for a moment, and then returned to normal.

"Eh?! Why am I here?"

"Strange, am I not studying at home?"

"What's going on, why can't I remember at all?"

Several people seemed to be unable to remember exactly why they appeared in Wangjiang Pavilion.

Their words also attracted the people around them.

Watch the fun.

There is never a shortage of people.

Li Yanchu and the others took advantage of the situation and left.

After walking a certain distance.

Bai Hongtu was surprised and said, "Is that young woman in Wangjiang Pavilion just now a ghost?!"

He is also a Taoist disciple of the Eight Classics.

Just now, I didn't see it at all.

Li Yanchu slightly shook his head: "I don't know for sure, but those rich young men just now were obviously under the enchantment."

Ecstasy is what people in the practice call it. There are many people in Jianghu who abduct children and women, but it is actually a kind of ecstasy.

It's just that each practice is different.

Bai Hongtu nodded slightly.

He is now completely hurt by the unknown woman.

The woman who fell into the water following behind was taken aback by their conversation.

She fixed her eyes.

Only then did I recognize it.

"Daoist Yanchu, it turned out to be you!"

The woman said happily.

"You know me?" Li Yanchu said.

"That's right. At the time, there was a piece of wronged blood money in my slave's house. Thanks to Taoist Yan Chu, I was able to save my life."

The woman said gratefully.

Li Yanchu was stunned.

At the beginning, in order to get rid of the harm of wronged blood money, I and Lao Bai connected through the yamen and organized a large-scale money recognition activity.

This woman must have remembered her appearance at the beginning.

"Why did you fall into the water just now?"

Li Yanchu asked.

There was a sad look on the woman's face, and she hesitated to speak.

"If you have any difficulties, you can tell us, maybe we can help you."

Li Yanchu said.

"That's right, you were forced into prostitution, or your family was haunted by a ghost, but it's okay, you met someone who understands you today."

Bai Hongtu said proudly.

It seems to be infected with the calm and confident temperament of the two of them.

The woman pondered slightly.

Then he narrates his own affairs.

After listening.

Li Yanchu and Bai Hongtu looked at each other with a bit of astonishment.

That's it?

Bai Hongtu hesitated to speak, but finally chose to remain silent.

It turned out that the woman's name was Zheng Zhi, she lived in Beimen Street, and her husband was Sun Ping, a scholar.

Sun Ping's family was in the middle of nowhere, and he had only passed the provincial examination in his studies, so it was difficult for him to make further progress.

Some are depressed.

After marrying the daughter-in-law Zheng Zhi, Sun Ping was originally very gentle.

But after a long time, he began to reveal his true nature, he likes to gamble!
Originally, Zheng Zhi still had some dowry, but now Sun Ping has lost all of them.

Even so, Zheng Zhi still didn't make a scene, instead, she tried her best to persuade her husband not to get into this habit.

Sun Ping was moved by Zheng Zhi's kindness, so he really restrained himself for a while and worked in a medicine shop.

But a few days ago, Sun Ping couldn't hold back and went to the gambling house again, but suddenly changed his luck and won more than ten taels of silver.

A poor and crazy scholar, a low-level gambler who has always been unlucky, suddenly changed his luck and started to kill everyone!

Can the result be just accept it?
Sun Ping was completely red-eyed from gambling, and finally won another ten taels of silver in one breath.

When Li Yanchu heard this, he thought that this Sun Ping had encountered some kind of evil spirit and made a deal with it.

There are often such unlucky gamblers and idlers who suddenly change their fortunes.

In fact, most of the time, it is caused by evil spirits. Those dirty things don't like money, they like the heart, liver, spleen, lungs and kidneys of living people, which are tender and delicious.

There are also perverts.

I like other people's wives.

When he makes a deal with you, you need to pay the price.

People's greed is endless, such people often die violently, their families are ruined!
Zheng Zhi's husband, Sun Ping, did not encounter any shady ghosts.

Instead, he was tricked!
After he won money one after another, he started to lose, and he lost again and again.

The 20 taels of silver that Sun Ping won was quickly lost.

This made Sun Ping completely crazy.

In the end, he not only lost his old house, but also lost his virtuous and docile wife.

Lost to the boss of the casino.

Mr. Feng!
Sun Ping begged Sanye Feng to let him go, and his wife too.

But Mr. Feng didn't pay attention to it, instead he asked someone to drive Sun Ping back.

It is common for these local hooligans to interrupt people's hands and feet. Fortunately, Feng Sanye asked Sun Ping to go home and tell Zheng Zhi.

So he didn't let his men beat him.

Otherwise, it would be wishful thinking for Sun Ping to go back with the whole body.

After Zheng Zhi knew these things, she was desolate, helpless, and heartbroken.

I can't think about it for a while.

So I threw myself into the river, planning to settle everything once and for all.

The river is so fast that it disappears in the blink of an eye.

Dead cleanly.

Unexpectedly, he met Li Yanchu, a young priest, and directly rescued her from the river.

Bai Hongtu thought it was a matter of gods and ghosts, but he didn't expect it to be a matter of local hooligans.

But he was a passionate young man after all, and he was filled with righteous indignation.

Li Yanchu was relatively calm.

"Zheng Zhi, let me ask you."

"Do you still want to live with your husband?"

Li Yanchu said softly.

Bai Hongtu said indignantly: "This kind of man who can even sell his wife, what are you doing with him!"

Li Yanchu reached out his hand to stop Bai Hongtu, signaling him not to get excited.

Instead it continued:

"It's hard to get rid of the problem of gambling, because the money comes too fast, it's easy to become addicted, and it can't stand the ordinary life."

"But if you want to continue living with him, I'll pay off your family's gambling debts and settle the matter with Feng San."

"If you don't want to live with him, I'll give you a sum of money to help you separate from him. You don't have to worry about Feng San."

Li Yanchu didn't care about Feng San at all.

What casino owner, what Mr. Feng!

Never heard of it!
The hardest thing in Weicheng's black and white is the county government king's arrest!

The biggest gang is the Five Lakes Gang!

Li Yanchu also knew a few of the other big gangs, and their heads had all sent greeting cards to Li Yanchu.

I visited Qingyunguan.

But knowing that he was not at the same level as this kind of Taoist master, he left in a hurry.

Several wealthy businessmen in the city also regarded Li Yanchu as a guest of honor, and the lives of several ladies were saved by Li Yanchu.

What is a casino owner?
It takes too much effort to beat him!
Zheng Zhi was slightly taken aback, and pondered for a moment.

indecision.

Bai Hongtu cried out in his heart, it's over.

Looking at her like this, she definitely couldn't let go of her husband and planned to go back and live with him.

In this ancient feudal background, women paid attention to marrying and obeying their husbands.

Although the etiquette and law of Qian State were not as strict as the dynasties influenced by Cheng Zhu Neo Confucianism.

But a woman like Zheng Zhi is as weak as water, gentle and virtuous.

It's easy to be submissive.
