Master of Soul-Building - C316
“What are you doing?”
When the Grand Master saw me like this, he wanted to reach out to stop me, but my operation was a step faster than his, and the knife cut off a piece of flesh the size of a palm on my thigh.
It wasn’t painful at all, it was just bragging, but the moment the knife stepped down, my face instantly paled, and blood spurted out like running water. My sackcloth pants were dyed blood-red.
Fortunately, there was the game table in front of me that supported me, so I was barely able to keep from falling to the ground. At that moment, my body felt like it was pierced by thousands of arrows, and my lips were bloodless and extremely shriveled.
When Brother Fang and Tu Hai saw me like this, they immediately came over to help me. All three of them had injuries on their legs and were barely able to support themselves on the ground.
Seeing that the situation had come to this, the Grand Master merely snorted and said:
“It looks like Master Qin is here today to take a treasure jump case.”
This was an old rule in casinos. Some gamblers who didn’t fear death could even take off their cotton clothes and pants to gamble after all the valuable things on their bodies had been blocked out.
However, after all these things were all gambled out, what else could they do? There were really some gamblers who were unafraid of death who could cut off their own fingers and gamble with the dealer.
How much is it worth? The flesh that falls off is immeasurable. It’s all based on the gambler’s own words. This is not a simple game, it’s just a finger.
If he really knew how to play, he would have to gouge out the meat from his body and gamble on it. This was a gamble of life and death, and if he lost this gamble, the dealer would be able to put the piece of meat into the money cabinet without even blinking.
The gambler couldn’t do anything about it. If the gambler was lucky enough to win, the gambler would have sliced off a piece of meat weighing two taels of silver.
The second option would be to rely entirely on the gambler’s price. In the future, as long as this casino opened up for business, this gambler who had skipped over treasure cases would be able to enjoy a portion here.
This was the rule of the martial arts world, and the master wouldn’t deny it. When he saw that I was going to cut off the meat, he was surprised because he didn’t think that I would be so good at it.
Grand Master gave a slight cough and instructed his subordinates to take the scale back.
A small scale made from traditional Chinese medicine weighed two to six gold taels, and everyone in the hall was amazed.
They were all raised by their father and mother. To be able to cut off this piece of meat and not use any kind of anesthetic, that would require a lot of mental fortitude and courage.
I also wanted to win, not lose. A real man’s dignity is on the line, furthermore, Zhang Tiangang’s life can’t even compare to a piece of meat on my body.
“To think that Master Qin would want to jump into a treasure case. That Kui Gate should naturally accompany me. Let’s get started.” Grand Master said in a somewhat dejected tone.
As the chess piece was about to drop, I gave a cold snort and slowed down.
“I am betting two jin of meat, I don’t know what that Kui Gate is betting with, I am not a wise man, I will bid the price on the Table.”
When Zheng Haoran heard this, he froze for a moment. What I just said was obvious, I’m going to take out the meat to play with. You should at least take out something of equal value to play with.
What I want is not this piece of meat, but the tongue inside Zhang Tiangang’s mouth.
“Master Qin’s methods are really good, this mouth is not going to let them off easily.”
Zheng Haoran, you heard what I said and laughed coldly, you did not have much to guide me, if you really win against me, I can guarantee that Zhang Tiangang would be fine for the time being.
Just for the time being?
I was stunned for a moment. Isn’t this price a little too low? I was just about to argue a bit.
But Zheng Haoran immediately told me that this gamble was only the beginning of all the conditions. If he couldn’t even win against that, then he had no conditions to speak.
His words were flawless, as if they were made of steel.
If that’s the case, then let’s begin. I thought for a while, and grabbed onto a handful of black stones. Zheng Haoran laughed, and then held onto a handful of white stones.
This bet is a piece of flesh from my body, plus a tongue from Zhang Tiangang’s mouth, that chess piece is about to perspire from clenching it in my hands.
“Boss Qin, let’s begin the game. No matter how much you try to hold the chess piece, it won’t work.”
Zheng Haoran opened up the chess piece, and Master took out a long staff and counted from left to right, two hundred eight sixteen pieces, two hundred sixteen pieces.
Seeing this number, Zheng Haoran could not believe it either. He repeated counted, and then fell silent for a moment, before gesturing for me to open it and take a look.
Since Zheng Haoran’s pawn count is two, then it means that I have already won half, and the winning or losing comes in one move. I clenched my teeth and opened my palm as well.
After counting the numbers several times, I determined the number.
“What we said just now is indeed true. Single count is the victory, double count is the negative.”
In my heart, I was so excited that I couldn’t believe it as I asked them again.
Zheng Haoran nodded silently, cupped his hands and said:
“Indeed, you have won.”
“I’m taking this person away. If you want the price, just say it, but my brother has already been tormented by you guys to this state, so I have to take him back to recuperate.”
After bringing up the word “injury”, before I could finish my sentence, the Grand Master was stunned for a moment before he pointed at my wound with a horrifying expression and said,
“Didn’t you guys see that Boss Qin is injured? Hurry up and bring out the best Golden Sore Medicine to treat Master Qin’s injuries.”
After saying this, the Grand Master turned to the people beside him and whispered a few words to them. Before long, the two of them had carried a bronze censer over.
It was the kind of stove used for heating in the winter in the Northwest Territories. It was covered in copper, and inside it burned red charcoal.
“Is this Golden Sore Medicine?” I was stunned for a moment, but I quickly swallowed my words back. Grand Master used a poker to take out a piece of charcoal and placed it on the lid of the pot.
“Master Qin, please take your medicine.” Before I could finish my sentence, I had already thrown the poker far away. From the looks of it, I wanted to use it unless I had to bend over and bend over.
This was already disgraceful. The Treasure Jump case was about face. If face collapsed in the middle, even if he won, it wouldn’t be considered a win.
If you don’t have a poker, you have to use your hand. I gritted my teeth and reached out to grab the piece of charcoal.
Instantly, I heard a sizzling sound as white smoke emerged from my palm. It hurt so much that my entire forearm felt numb.
“Master Qin, please take your medicine.” Grand Master indifferently said.
“Good!” “Alright!”
I nodded, and with my other hand, I ripped open my sackcloth pants and stuck the piece of charcoal to the wound.
White smoke rose up from the linen pants, mixed with the burnt smell of boiling flesh.
