Return From The Immortal World
Chapter 82: Sadness from the Past
Jia Ruidao skillfully shuffled the cards. Then, he sent 3 dark cards to Tang Xiu and himself. Placing the remaining cards on the side, he continued to explain.
“After the dealer finishes giving the card, he will place it on the table in front of him. I once heard a Gambling Master shoot his cards with his hands into the remaining pile of cards quickly and take the cards he needed. But the original card is left in the deck of cards. However, a gambler who can do this must be someone who has reached the God of Gambler level. Like the casinos in Las Vegas, there is the existence of such a God of Gamblers. ”
Suddenly, Jia Ruidao patted her forehead and spoke in a depressed tone, “Uh, I forgot the key point, which is memorizing and counting cards. You should continue to observe the dealer's hand as often as possible. Follow the rhythm of the game and remember them, find out and calculate the position of the cards, especially when the cards are cut, you have to accurately show them. ”
Tang Xiu touched three cards as per Jia Ruidao's explanation. When he saw the card number, he suddenly frowned, as he saw that Jia Ruidao had just laid down a pile of cards and fired cards quickly, and finished exchanging cards in an instant.
“Is it replaced with a smaller card?”
Tang Xiu quietly sighed.
He finally realized that not only did he have to look closely at Jia Ruidao shuffling the cards, but he also had to memorize the faces and positions of the cards. Jia Ruidao seemed to have yet to realize that Tang Xiu had exchanged her business card, and she even took the card and immediately exchanged it once more.
“4 Shovels, 5 Hearts, 6 Hearts, straight?” Tang Xiu opened the card, “And you?”
Jia Ruidao said with a smile, “Your luck is good, I ..”
While he was talking, his hand moved very quickly to sweep the stack of cards in front of him. But almost in an instant, Tang Xiu immediately acted and accurately grabbed her wrist. Since it was Jia Ruidao's playing hand, he failed to exchange his cards.
“You can never play ‘hands fast’ in front of me.”
Jia Ruidao's expression froze; she was dumbfounded. He glanced at Tang Xiu's hand with an expression of disbelief. His mouth twitched as he revealed a bitter smile, “Yes God, it is already unbelievable that your eyes can be that fast, but even your hands are so fast! I have a very fast hand because of my talent and through decades of practice, but you .. ”
Tang Xiu lightly replied, “I am a martial artist. I'm always vigilant and vigilant of my surroundings. My fist and palm are lightning fast. Unless that person is faster than Me, I will easily find him if he cheats in front of Me. ”
Jia Ruidao is overjoyed, “Excellent! Brother Tang, I really never thought that you were a martial artist. After teaching you and seeing you learn a skill today, I can finally feel at ease. In fact, this is a big disadvantage to the gambling world because you do not want to become a professional gambler. I can guarantee that, in case you have the desire to practice gambling techniques, you only need 3 to 5 years to become the most famous Gambling Grandmaster. ”
Grandmaster Gambling?
Tang Xiu secretly turned into a super arrogant person. Had he had nothing to do, he could have fully given his all and become a Gambling Grandmaster. But, moreover, he was not interested in gambling in the slightest, what he really wanted was to cultivate and increase his strength, and then return to the peak in the Eternal World. He raced against time, and was unable to waste it.
“Grrr ..”
Jia Ruidao's stomach suddenly rumbled.
Tang Xiao smiled indifferently and said, “It's too late. Come on out and eat something! I've memorized all the gambling techniques you've taught me. I'll practice again at night. ”
Jia Ruidao's mind had been consumed in the gambling game during the day. And it was so exhausting to the point that his mind was tense and stressed. After returning and teaching the gambling technique to Tang Xiu, he discovered that Tang Xiu had a natural talent and easily absorbed everything he learned. The depressed and sad feeling he replaced with a joyful mood, caused him to suddenly feel tired. She naturally agreed after hearing Tang Xiu's suggestion.
“Sister Tang, my student should have ordered a private lunchbox already, let's go now!”
After leaving the presidential room, First Disciple Jia Ruidao, Gong Dalong, had been waiting outside the door. After seeing the two of them come out, he respectfully greeted, “Master, Mr. Tang. I have reserved a seat at the Everlasting Feast Hall. The Second and Third Young Brothers were also waiting there. ”
“Good!”
Jia Ruidao nodded with a satisfied expression. He looked at Tang Xiu and quickly said, “Sister Tang, this Eternal Feast Hall is a special restaurant on Jingmen Island. This is a very fancy restaurant. No one can enter if they do not have a membership. ”
“Hmm!” Tang Xiu did not nod. He had no favorable impression for those who were dead in pursuit of status and identity in high-end restaurants or clubhouses. Because all he knows, this era seems to uphold the slogan that ‘ everyone is equal for the common goal of building a harmonious society’. ”
However, the threshold limit of the type of person who could enter, would only divide people into classes. If it was in a cultivation world where everyone was striving to become immortal, Tang Xiu might be able to get used to it. But in this new era, more or less, this gives him a feeling like ‘munafik’.
Riding a Mercedes-Benz through the city in search of the fun and bustle of the city, cars quickly change direction as they approach the coastline. The lush greenery and greenery are on both sides of the 2-lane trail, as only dim streetlights are there with almost no cars passing by. Occasionally, security guard patrol cars were seen patrolling and passing silently.
Slowly, the sound of the waves came, as if it was coming from the horizon. As the car moves, the sound becomes more distinct. Finally, in front, a group of stars twinkled as if lights were flashing and appeared in front of Tang Xiu.
“Hah?”
After observing those lights, Tang Xiu's heart suddenly shook as he involuntarily exclaimed, “Water Block Dragon Pen Array?!”
Jia Ruidao by her side responded with a puzzled expression, “Sister Tang, what did you say?”
Tang Xiu sighed deeply as he could barely control his breathing. He turned around and looked at Jia Ruidao, asking, “How much do you know about this Eternal Party Hall?”
Jia Ruidao shook her head and said, “Little do I know about that. Owner includes type ‘Dragon God whose tail and head cannot be seen‘. According to rumors, when Jingmen Island was first developed, the Eternal Feast Hall was already here, and its scale grew with time. But, there are certain circumstances that I know of. ”
Tang Xiu said, “What special circumstances?”
“People from the martial world?”
Tang Xiu was quite confused when he heard Jia Ruidao's words.
Jia Ruidao explained further, “Ya, martial artist. The most unreasonable thing is that, if the martial artists who ate at the restaurant were able to break the ‘Thousand Revolutions Array’ used by the owner, the, they can freely eat and drink there. ”
“Thousand Revolution Array?”
Tang Xiu's heart was as if it was rocked by a huge earthquake when his skin instantly turned as white as paper.
Memories of the Unbridled Eternal World flowed in his mind. In the field of the majestic palace martial training, the soft, gentle, childish voice of a little girl in a white dress suddenly appeared and stuck in her mind: a:
“Master, Yaner has broken the record of 3600 days in the Thousand Revolution Array. How do I break through? However, Master is evil and acts without shame. You have placed the Little Golden Man at the Yin point, haven't you? ”
“Master, Yaner finally broke through. So Yan was very pleased. You said that if Yaner can break the record of 3600 days in the Thousand Revolution Array, then Yaner has grown. And now, Yan is an adult, right? ”
“Master, Yan’er personally brew nectar wine from hundreds of pure and rare flowers, please sample ..”
“Mastered..”.
The traces of crystal beads swelled up in Tang Xiu's eyes.
It's been 6,500 years!
He was his first apprentice. He ventures alone to the most dangerous place in the Eternal World, the Infernal Dead Sea, only to find a 10,000-year-old Ice Soul to help him. From there, he never heard of her existence again. His 6,500 years of grief made him vow never to accept a true disciple again.
“It's absolutely impossible! Although I was the one who created the Thousand Revolution Array and the Dragon Water Pen Lock, and he was the only one I had ever taught on that array, this should have been just a coincidence. It's really just a coincidence. ”
Tang Xiu was constantly repeating this sentence in his heart.
Shortly after, Mercedes-Benz parked its car inside a large parking lot. Jia Yelei, who had been waiting for a long time, stepped forward to open the door as she watched Tang Xiu and her father walk out.
“Dad, Mr. Tang, the private room has been booked in advance; it's been waiting for the two of you. ”
Jia Ruidao nodded slowly. He looked at Tang Xiu and said, “Master Tang, let's go together.”
Tang Xiu was silent for a moment before he replied, “Tell me the private room number. I was pretty bored and wanted some fresh air outside. After that, I'll go to the reserved room and find you. ”
“This ..” Jia Ruidao hesitated.
Tang Xiu waved and said, “Go away! I'll be fine.”
Jia Ruidao nodded and said, “If so, we will go first. Brother Tang, if there is anything, quickly call me. ”
“Alright!” Tang Xiu nodded silently.
After sending Jia Ruidao and her students, Tang Xiu chose a path in the forest, walking around the fountain field and heading straight for the shoreline. The stars filled the vast sky as its light shone above the sea surface, as it reflected back the glittering light. The only boat a kilometer away from the beach floated with the ocean waves. With her sharp eyesight, Tang Xiu could clearly see a thin person back on the ship, giving off a deep sense of daze and loneliness.
Tang Xiu took a deep breath as he sat cross-legged on the sand of the beach.
“The Great Dao has millions of hard roads.”
“Prepare forward through thorns and thorny bushes along the way.”
“Because the sky is not moving, my soul is throwing away anxiety.”
“Unending thoughts return to the soul within.”
“…”
Reciting the secret art of Soul Refining Great Sorrow and Happiness, Tang Xiu's soul surged as Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi howled from all directions and rushed towards him, it was as if it was a clear spring that washed away all the ripples within his body.
Ten minutes later…
A kilometer away, on a ship at sea, the complexion of a beautiful girl sitting cross-legged suddenly changed. A shocked expression emanated in his star-like eyes as he then quickly turned to look at the beach. With his common sense, he could sense that the surrounding Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi was drifting towards someone sitting cross-legged on the beach.
