I was an alchemist in those years

Rong Yi was just about to make an offer with a smile, Yan Wei came out from the inside with his arms around the gorgeous woman, his expression was depressed, and he exchanged a glance with us, we met him once in the hotel this morning, it seemed that he recognized us, Yan Wei glanced Seeing the stone in Xiao Lianshan's hand, he suddenly said.

"Don't waste your money, you have nothing in this rock."

After losing so much money in gambling for a while, I still kindly remind Xiao Lianshan, I secretly have a good impression of him.

Xiao Lianshan sincerely took out all the money and put it in front of Rong Yi.

"That's all I have, see if you can sell it."

Rong Yi didn't even look at the crumpled money on the table, and put away his smile. The businessman saw only two words, interests, not to mention the interests that Xiao Lianshan put on the table, I guess Rong Yi didn't notice them at all.

Rong Yi was planning to send Yan Wei out, and I was thinking about the five ghosts getting rich, and there would be retribution if the wealth was not received. Seeing Song Yi's appearance, he would not buy it at all, so I heard Yan Wei say.

"Your stone is useless. If you give you two hundred, you will earn it. I have earned a lot of money today. Just cut it to him. I will take it as a good deed and let him know that gambling with stones is not so fun."

Because of Yanwei's face, Rong Yi piled up a smile on his face again. He took Xiao Lianshan's money and asked the worker next to him to cut it casually. He didn't even look back. It would be a joke if the stones outside were shipped out.

Yan Wei also stopped in his tracks. I looked at his eyes and knew that he was not waiting to see Xiao Lianshan's jokes. It was more of a persuasion. Perhaps it was because the rough stone Xiao Lianshan selected was unremarkable, so there were few onlookers. After cutting it down, when Xiao Lianshan held up the stone with the cut in his hand, the merchants collecting jade swarmed to him, surrounding Xiao Lianshan in the middle.

Rong Yi looked back in surprise, I saw Yan Wei's mouth slowly open, pushed away the woman beside him and took a step forward, as if he couldn't believe what he saw, I saw the stone in Xiao Lianshan's hand There is a thumb-thick emerald green extending into the stone. Although I don't understand jade, I know it is worth a lot from the reactions of these jade merchants.

Xiao Lianshan is full of money in front of his eyes, stretching out from all directions, all in thick stacks, this is the money and goods in the stone gambling business, if Xiao Lianshan wants to sell, whoever takes the money, the stones in his hand will be returned. who.

Xiao Lianshan didn't even ask for a price. He chose the thickest pile of money in front of him and handed the stone to the buyer. I saw the person who bought the stone take the stone and ran away, as if he was afraid that Xiao Lianshan would change his mind. I guess the value of this jade is far away. higher than the transaction price.

Rong Yi looked at Xiao Lianshan with strange eyes. I guess he must be thinking that besides skill, betting on rocks is luck, but he didn't expect Xiao Lianshan's luck to be too good.

After Yan Wei was stunned for a long time, a faint wry smile appeared on his face. I understood his mood. The stones chosen from thousands of people were worthless. I wanted to persuade Xiao Lianshan not to sink too deep in the gambling stones, but no matter how I looked at them, they were all waste stones. But in an instant, it became a rare commodity to live in.

Xiao Lianshan came over with the money, didn't even count, divided half of it and handed it to Yanwei.

"Without your help to get the boss to sell it to me, I wouldn't be able to earn this money. I will take it for nothing, and you will share half of the money."

I know that Xiao Lianshan is simple, I am not surprised that he has such a behavior, but in front of Rong Yi, a businessman who is only interested in profit, I don't think he would understand Xiao Lianshan's behavior, so he returned to the shop very unhappy with a teapot inside.

Seeing that Xiao Lianshan didn't take the money in his hand, Yan Wei said with a faint smile.

"Just take it when you see it. Since you bet on stones, you will be played again. You don't understand. The little money in your hand is not enough for you to lose. Don't be like me..."

I saw Yan Wei leaving with his arms around the woman in the middle of his sentence, and I had a good impression of this drunk man. After the victory in the first battle, Xiao Lianshan donated half of the money according to my instructions, and the rest of the money When I went to buy stones again, Rong Yi's store had a Feng Shui bureau that was pointed out by an expert, I tried to avoid it as much as possible, but I searched all the rough stone trading markets in Jinglong, but I couldn't find one that could prosper Xiao Lianshan's fortune.

The next day, I had no choice but to bite the bullet and go to Rong Yi's shop. Yan Wei was there again. When I saw us go in, I could clearly read the disappointment in his eyes and Rong Yi's disdain. Luck is in it, but when it comes to betting on stones, no matter how lucky a person is, it is impossible to choose two rough stones in a row, especially in a pile of waste rocks, let alone a novice like Xiao Lianshan, I guess that's what Rong Yi thinks at the moment of.

Still the seventh one from left to right, Rong Yixiang still only charged Xiao Lianshan two hundred yuan as before. Yan Wei even put down the stone he had chosen and waited for the result. Looking at his expression, it seemed that he was expecting Xiao Lianshan to lose because of the bet. And back to shore.

But the process and result were still the same as yesterday, except that there were more jade merchants surrounding Xiao Lianshan, more money in their hands, and the merchants who sold the jade ran faster.

The teacup in Rong Yi's hand was hanging in the air and he was completely stunned, while Yan Wei was frowning in a daze.

When we walked out of Rongyi's shop, someone behind us started pointing at Xiao Lianshan. After all, we have never seen someone as lucky as him.

Day three!

I didn't go. I asked Yue Qianling to accompany Xiao Lianshan to choose the original stone for the crouching tiger talisman drawn from the mural in the hotel's eyes. When Xiao Lianshan got the money back and the previous two wins, it should be enough for us temporarily, but I Except for Xiao Lianshan and Yue Qianling who will come later, there is Yanwei behind them.

The money Xiao Lianshan put in front of me was more than the sum of the previous two times. Yan Wei looked at me, a very smart person, and quickly saw that I seemed to be the most important person in this room. Knowing why Xiao Lianshan brought him back, I was hesitating when I heard him ask me.

"Three times in a row, there are jades in the rough stones randomly selected. How did you do it?"

I just wanted to say something with a smile when I saw Yan Wei unhurriedly unfolding a folded paper and pushing it in front of me. I couldn't laugh at that moment.

That's the wanted warrant for the three of us.

Yanwei already recognized us as the ones in the photo, Xiao Lianshan subconsciously went to close the door, seeing that Yanwei's face was not a traitor and evil person, and the previous few incidents showed that he was not bad at heart, since he recognized us and did not report , Dare to come back with Xiao Lianshan, at least it shows that he doesn't want to report on us yet.

"Do you believe me when I say that I selected the one by Taoism?" I regained my composure and asked seriously.

"The choice of Taoism..."

"Gengzi, Gengchen, Wuyin, Gengshen, this is your birthday horoscope, your horoscope is a yellow tiger, you were born with a white rat, and the five elements belong to earth." I interrupted him calmly. "You were destined to have a brother who died young, and parents who died early, and you have no siblings. See if I'm right."

Yan Wei looked at me in a daze for a long time without saying a word, and said in doubt.

"Since you can really figure it out, then help me figure out whether I will win or lose when I go to gamble on stones today?"

I pushed the glass of water in front of me to Iwami.

"If you don't believe me, just write a word and I'll test it for you."

"Don't be so troublesome. My surname is Yandan and my last name is Wei, so you can test the word Wei for me."

Without even thinking about it, I blurted out with confidence.

"When you ask about gambling stones, you are asking about wealth. The word Wei is soil from wood, soil is Gen hexagram, wood is Zhen hexagram, upper Gen and lower earthquake is Yi hexagram of No.20 seven hexagrams in Zhouyi. The hexagram image is: Taigong alone fishing The Weishui River, with a threaded rod in hand, is full of sorrow, and sometimes meets King Wen's visit, and has never been tortured since then. I can't help myself when I ask about money, and I have to meet someone who knows me."

"If you say this, it means you didn't say it. How do I know who the person I know is?"

"I!"

Yan Wei looked a little uncertain, I saw him glance at Xiao Lianshan, I guess he was thinking, no one can be so lucky as to guess the stone with jade three times in a row, and he looked at me again seriously, still a little bit disbelief , I told him about the dummy on the rockery and the furnishings in his house. Someone planned to ruin his fortune, and he would lose no matter what he gambled in the game.

Yan was furious after hearing this, his eyes were spitting fire, and he told us that he is an overseas Chinese in Thailand, and he has some talent for betting on stones. Between him and Jing Long, he has indeed made some money by betting on stones over the years.

But since Rong Yi came here, for the past half a year, he has lost all bets on stones, and the money he earned has already been wiped out. Now he still owes Rong Yi a large debt. Rong Yi has been playing tricks in the dark.

I wondered why Yanwei didn’t give up since he was already heavily in debt and let Rong Yi earn the money. Then Yanwei told us that in Thailand he had a statue of a maidservant of the blue water ice species that was priceless, and Rong Yi was also an overseas Chinese in Thailand. I have always wanted to buy this statue of him, but Yan Wei refused many times and never agreed. It is probably because of this statue that Rong Yi set up a feng shui bureau to drive him to a dead end.

Before Yan finished speaking, he stood up and pushed the arrest warrant on the table in front of me, thanking me for taking the dummy on the rockery and restraining the evil spirit from the window to kill him.

"I don't think you look like bad guys. Go away quickly. I can recognize you, and others will recognize you sooner or later. There are many military police in the city. They are probably here to arrest you. If I can leave, I will take you away." I escaped by water, but unfortunately I owe money to Rong Yi, he has already sent someone to watch me, now I can't go anywhere."

I wanted to say thank you to Yanwei, but just as I was about to speak, I saw his eyes staring strangely at the portrait I hadn’t put away. The painting on it was the crouching tiger soldier symbol copied from the cave murals.

"This... I've seen this pattern before." Yan Wei thought for a while and said.

The three of us were stunned for a moment, and I quickly handed the picture to Yanwei to let him see clearly.

"Where have you seen it?"

Yan Wei thought for a while and answered in the affirmative.

"In Thailand, this pattern is very familiar, but suddenly I can't remember where I saw it."

In the fourth mural, the woman walks away on the water. Ajuna also said before her death that the woman went down the Lancang River. Yan Wei said that he had seen this pattern in Thailand, which coincided with the legend. It was already broken. The clues were found by accident again.

"You just said you could take us to Thailand?"

"The Lancang River is called the Mekong River when it crosses the national border. It is very convenient for smuggling by water. I know the road and the people well. I can go ashore in northern Thailand." Yan Wei nodded and said helplessly. "But I can't leave, I owe Rong Yi so much money, unless I give him the statue of the ice maid, otherwise..."

"If you don't owe Rong Yi any money, can you take us to find this pattern?"

Rock nodded with certainty, but emphasized that he had indeed seen this pattern in Thailand, but he couldn't remember where he had seen it.

I packed up the things on the table and gave them to Xiao Lianshan, and asked him and Yue Qianling to leave to pack up and go to the pier to wait, and then I told Rock.

"Go, I'll help you pay the bill."
