Chapter 197 Gambling and Addiction
Mouse carried Wang Yuansan into the gambling hall, and when he entered the door, he saw a burly man with a horse face and two thugs patrolling the hall. Wherever he went, all the gamblers nodded and bowed to him. But he nodded slightly, his demeanor was very similar to the appearance of a big man hypocritically giving himself alms when he met a small man.

Seeing this big man with a horse face, the mouse quickly ran over with Wang Yuansan in his hands, then nodded and bowed to him flatteringly: "Master Niu, hehe, you are still so mighty after not seeing you for a few days."

The horse-faced man who was called Master Niu by the mouse didn't even lift his eyelids, but greeted him with a "huh" from his nose.The mouse didn't take it seriously, instead, he made way for him in a twitchy way: "Master Niu, please."

"Yeah." Master Niu's attitude towards the mouse this time is a little bit better than before, at least he gave the mouse a charity glance from the corner of his eye.But his behavior like this is justified. After all, even though a gambling house like him is just a manager with little face, compared with people like mice, his status is of course incomparable.Another point is, in fact, this "Niu Ye" doesn't think much of gamblers like mice, even though they are his parents.

However, Master Niu's gaze soon fell on Wang Yuansan who was being carried by the mouse. He couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, and then looked at the mouse with a half-smile. Take a breath outside.

Finally, when the mouse turned pale and was about to be unable to hold on anymore, Master Niu said, "A mouse, right?"

"Yes, yes, it's the little one. I wonder what orders you, Mr. Niu, have?" When the mouse saw Mr. Niu speak, his heart was finally slightly relieved, and he let out a barely perceptible breath. .It's okay to speak, as long as you speak, there is room for change, if you don't speak, then he will cry, because the consequence may be that he probably won't know how he offended this master until he dies.

Although Mouse is a frequent visitor to this casino, but to be honest, he really didn't dare to offend the person in charge of the casino.Who doesn't know that these people are licking blood, if you make them feel a little bit unhappy, they will kill you immediately.No matter how rough the mouse is in the village on weekdays, it would not dare to play in front of this master, no matter what, it is a matter of life.

"I said Mouse, you are so talented, you actually brought such a little brother to play." Master Niu shifted his gaze from Wang Yuansan, who was not very good-looking, to the well-behaved Mouse, with a half-smile Said, "Usually when you come to play alone, you feel that you don't have enough money, but this time you brought some money with you. Why, where did you get rich when you haven't come here?" After saying this, the voice suddenly stopped, It's like watching TV when the power goes out suddenly, which makes people feel uncomfortable suddenly.

Master Niu didn't say anything, he just looked at the mouse with a half-smile, but the mouse broke out in a cold sweat, and the clothes on his back were slowly soaked.The wet clothes mixed with the stale and slightly hot air in the gambling hall immediately became sticky and spread on the body like paste, which made people grateful and uncomfortable.

But at this moment, the mouse didn't dare to make any moves even if he felt uncomfortable. His expression was even more frightened than before. His pale face, which hadn't recovered much, was completely pale, and the sweat on the tip of his nose was even a drop. Drop by drop straight down.

The mouse was still thinking about how he had offended the master, but he didn't know that the master Niu had been waiting impatiently.In fact, Master Niu is just trying to get some benefits by catching the mouse like this. He knows that the mouse hasn't come for a while, and when a gambler like this comes in again, he must have a little money in his hand, not to mention that he vaguely listened. It is said that a while ago, the mouse went to the in-laws in Linjiacun to get some valuable things out, so that's why he paid attention to the mouse.

But what annoyed Master Niu was that the mouse in front of him was obviously not as clever as a real mouse, so why didn't he realize it when he made it so obvious?Is it really necessary for him to ask for benefits directly?Not to mention that he couldn't open his mouth, even if he really did, he wouldn't have the guts.

Although he is now the ostensible steward of the casino, he is not the one who is really in charge, and their mysterious boss.What's more, there are rules in the casino, that is, people in the casino are not allowed to use power for personal gain to grant money to gamblers, let alone threaten them to pay money in disguise, unless the person owes the casino.

After waiting for another second or two, the mouse still didn't turn the corner, so Master Niu was completely annoyed, and he began to wonder whether he should find some brothers to kill him secretly.This guy is really not cute at all, his nickname is Mouse, but in fact, he doesn't have the wit of a Mouse at all, so he wasted his nickname for nothing.But Master Niu didn't know that when the villagers in Dahe Village gave the mouse such a nickname, they never expected him to be smart. The nickname Maidai him, to put it bluntly, secretly called him a mouse, not a human being.

However, just when Master Niu was planning to find someone to kill the mouse secretly, the mouse finally got the hang of it, and he knew exactly where he had offended the master, didn't he just want to benefit from it?

The mouse who understood it was suddenly angry, and secretly cursed that the surnamed Niu was a vampire who couldn't get enough to eat. At the same time, he felt really distressed. Baba's coming here to benefit from him, will this make people live?But the distress is the distress, and the benefits still have to be given.

So the mouse gritted its teeth, took out a penny from its sleeve with trembling hands, and wanted to hand it to Master Niu. By the way, it raised its eyes to sneak a glance at him, but met a pair of eyes that seemed to be smiling but were actually dissatisfied with frost. Trembling with fright, he immediately exchanged the usual money for one tael of silver, and suppressed the pain in his heart, and whispered in a pleading tone: "Today, the total price for selling chickens is only two taels of silver. Come here, Master Niu can't help but let the little one play a few games to get over his addiction."

Master Niu's face darkened suddenly when he heard the mouse's words, and a pair of eagle-like eyes stared at him sharply, as if he wanted to poke a few holes in him.The mouse was stared at by Master Niu's knife-like eyes and was almost incontinent in fright. Fortunately, Master Niu withdrew his sharp and cold eyes in an instant, which made the mouse feel a little more relaxed.

"Okay, let's go play." Master Niu finally said slowly, but he didn't reach out to take the money handed over by the mouse, "Master Niu was just joking with you kid, you take it seriously, but really don't Just kidding." After speaking, he did not forget to reach out and pat the mouse's shoulder lightly to show his kindness, and then he continued to inspect the casino with the two subordinates behind him.

In fact, at this moment, Lord Niu has already begun to hate the mouse, and he is very angry at the mouse's behavior of only using one tael of silver to get rid of him.A tael of silver is really nothing to him, it's not enough for him to stick between his teeth, is this a beggar?
You little bastard, you dare to amuse your grandfather like this, I will let you go for now, and wait until you leave the gambling hall to see how I deal with you, hum!Master Niu said cruelly in his heart, at this moment he is completely convinced that the mouse has money, otherwise the person who can usually find a dozen or twenty coppers can take out one or two at once. Silver?

So I still blame the mouse for being too unlucky. If he hadn't run over so bluntly and "wagged his tail" at Master Niu to flatter him, maybe Master Niu would not have noticed him, and he probably wouldn't have let Master Niu bear his grudge so quickly. on.

After Master Niu left, Mouse finally breathed a long sigh of relief, and only then did he feel the wet clothes on his back sticking uncomfortably tight to his body.He wiped his sweat with his hands, and excitedly took Wang Yuansan to a dice table and started betting.

……

"Oh, what a bad luck!" After a while, the mouse who lost money after playing more than a dozen games finally cursed angrily. Like him, there were other gamblers around him. Except for a few lucky ones who won money, the rest were all lost.

Unwillingly, the mouse took out another penny and was about to split it up to continue betting, but from the corner of its eye, it suddenly caught sight of Wang Yuansan, who was full of curiosity and interest, and stopped immediately.He suddenly remembered that the purpose of his coming here seemed to be to complete the tasks assigned to him by his uncle, and it was estimated that if the uncle knew that he came here to patronize his own pleasure and left the tasks assigned by him behind him, he would accuse him. Not sure how to deal with him.

Thinking of this, the mouse looked at the last copper coin in his hand again, hesitated for a while, and finally closed his eyes into Wang Yuansan's arms: "Take it, and you can play along." After speaking, he opened his eyes extremely Reluctantly glanced at the copper coin that was sent out by him.

He thought brokenly in his heart: Give me half...or twenty coppers...ten...five...

But to his disappointment, after taking the money, Wang Yuansan excitedly bet with everyone, without even giving him a look from the beginning to the end.So the mouse became even more resentful, and complained in his heart, what kind of dick do you think you are, a little kid, and you act like a dog to hang out with us adults, which bastard brought such a hapless kid in here, really he Mother owes a beating!

But the mouse had forgotten at this moment that he was the one who dragged Wang Yuansan here in the first place.What made Mice envy and hate even more was that Wang Yuansan, who participated in gambling for the first time, was very lucky, and even won two or three taels of silver with his usual money in one afternoon.This is the first time that Wang Yuansan has seen so much silver since he was a child (two liang of silver is enough for the average rural family to spend more than half a year, and those who save a little money can even use it for a year). Eyes, and thus become more addicted to gambling dice.

Besides, Wang Yuansan is only ten years old this year. It is the first time for a ten-year-old child to play this kind of "game" that is both fun and rich. It is strange that he does not become addicted.

What luck!The mouse watched from the side with hot eyes, and felt that Wang Yuansan's smile, which was brighter than the sun, really deserved a beating, so he couldn't help but cursed angrily.But in a blink of an eye, he stuck to it to please, in order to cheat Wang Yuansan for a few coins and enjoy his gambling addiction.
