Courtyard House: Why is my time-travel experience so shabby?

Sai Wan Night Market, small gambling stalls.

After a few more rounds, no one continued to bet, because twelve consecutive double numbers seemed too weird.

According to probability calculations, the probability of this happening is one in 4096, which is almost impossible.

Most of the onlookers are there to watch the fun, and there are not many gamblers who are willing to place bets. After all, there are not many rich people who come to the night market.

At this point, the youngsters who were willing to place a bet had already lost most of their money, and most of the remaining people had figured out the trick.

There must be something fishy going on with this young gambling den owner.

But they couldn't figure out where the problem lay. Even Du Weiguo wasn't quite sure and only had a vague guess.

The young boss was wearing a short-sleeved floral shirt and had bare arms. He had no chance of cheating at all.

Moreover, in the next few rounds, it was the gamblers who were picking and moving the beans, and he didn't get any chance at all.

Therefore, this is definitely not a trick, nor is it luck, but if it is really a spatial ability, it would be too rare.

This guy is the first human Du Weiguo has met who possesses this ability. Yes, Blood Fang and Blade Queen Lilith can also teleport, but they are not humans.

"Okay, since all the gods of wealth have enjoyed themselves tonight, I will close the stall."

While clasping his fists and saying some polite words, the young boss skillfully picked up the banknotes on the red cloth.

"Wait, let me play a few hands."

At this moment, Du Weiguo stepped out of the crowd, bent down, took out a few hundred-dollar Hong Kong dollars from his pocket and threw them on the single-word circle on the red cloth.

"Thank you for taking care of my small business, but are you still paying for it? It seems that the boss is also a person who doesn't believe in superstition. Please."

The young boss smiled and smacked his lips, then handed the porcelain bowl in his hand to Du Weiguo and extended his hand as a gesture of invitation.

"Haha~" Du Weiguo also laughed, took the porcelain bowl and weighed it.

"I am a stubborn person and I never believe in evil." As he said that, he reached out to grab the white lentils in the porcelain bowl.

As he moved, the young boss's smile froze instantly, and a look of disbelief flashed in his eyes.

"Wow~"

Du Weiguo didn't even pause. He scattered the lentils in his hand on the red cloth, and then slowly picked them up with a small stick.

"Single! Single! Single!" The crowd of onlookers started to make noise again.

"Wow! Fuck! Finally an order is placed!"

Soon, there were only three lentils left on the red cloth. The result was obvious: single!

"Tsk, it seems that I have good luck tonight."

Du Weiguo put down the stick, asked the boss for money, with a meaningful smile on his face.

Just now, in a flash, without anyone knowing, Du Weiguo had already fought with the young boss several times.

The moment he put his hand into the porcelain bowl, Du Weiguo used the space to collect a few lentils into it. No one noticed this action, except the boss.

Du Weiguo's guess was correct. The young boss was a person with spatial abilities. At the same time, he also had the ability to sense space.

He knew the number of lentils in the bowl by heart, and he noticed immediately that several were missing.

However, the young boss is a real talent and is not a fish that can be slaughtered at will. The moment Du Weiguo scattered the lentils onto the red cloth, one bean was missing.

Originally it should have been three, but now it has become two, which is still an even number.

However, Du Weiguo is the son of the plane who is backed by the system. Not only does he have good eyesight, but he also has a dimensional space to rely on. No matter who he faces, he will not be afraid.

So, when the lentil fell completely to the ground, another one appeared and he became Yu San again.

This young boss might be young and full of energy, or he might have met a colleague in the same field and was excited to see the prey, anyway, he is quite tough.

He did not give up struggling. When Du Weiguo used a small stick to pick the lentils for the first and third time, he used his ability to harvest the lentils twice.

However, Du Weiguo made up for them all without making a fuss, and the final result was Yu San.

The young boss looked at him without giving in, his eyes full of dissatisfaction. He counted out a few bills and handed them to Du Weiguo.

Du Weiguo took the banknote, but he did not let go. Instead, he squinted his eyes and said provocatively:

"You're really lucky. How about it, boss? Another try?"

"Okay, come on, I'll bet even this time." Du Weiguo snatched the banknotes and threw them on the bottom money.

In the next 6 rounds, all of them were double numbers. It turned out that the special ability of the casino boss met Du Weiguo's golden finger.

The result was no surprise: a complete defeat.

"Come on, come on again!"

The young boss angrily threw a thick stack of banknotes into the double-word circle, and then began to move the lentils on the red cloth into the celadon bowl.

He was so drunk at this moment that there were bloodshot eyes.

Du Weiguo slowly lit a cigarette, exhaled the smoke slowly, and casually tapped the banknotes in front of him with his fingers, jokingly saying:

"It's almost 10,000 yuan, boss. Do you have that much money?"

"Wow~" Upon hearing this, the onlookers were in an uproar, and the sound of gasps was endless.

"Yes, yes, can you afford it?

"Fuck you, I didn't see you spend any money the whole night, you just made money out of nothing, and now you're going to double it, can a loser like you afford it?"

There were also those who liked to watch the fun and were not afraid of trouble, who stood by and made trouble. Among them, the most outrageous was the short-haired man who lost all his money.

"Clang!"

A flash of golden light appeared, and the young boss took out a golden yellow croaker from somewhere and threw it on the red cloth.

"Sigh~"

Under the streetlights, the golden light emitted by the big yellow croaker blinded everyone's eyes. They couldn't help but gasp.

"How is it? Is it enough?"

The young boss stretched his neck, glanced at Du Weiguo and asked coldly, the recklessness in his bones was fully displayed.

The weight of a large yellow croaker is 312.5 grams. According to the current market price, 1 gram of gold is about 30 Hong Kong dollars. A large yellow croaker is indeed worth nearly ten thousand yuan.

"Okay, as long as you have the money, come on." Du Weiguo nodded without comment and reached out to take the porcelain bowl.

"Wait a minute!" The young boss pulled the porcelain bowl towards himself.

"You've caught seven in a row, isn't it my turn now?"

"No."

Du Weiguo didn't even pause for a second and decisively refused. His system space could only be reflected through physical contact.

"Why?" The young boss had sharp eyes and he obviously saw that Du Weiguo had the trick up his sleeve.

Du Weiguo sneered, "Just because you are the banker, I don't trust you. I'm afraid you are cheating."

"Then I think you are cheating." The young boss was not stupid and immediately retorted.

"That does make sense." Du Weiguo curled his lips, grabbed the banknotes in front of him and shook them gently.

"Since we can't continue playing, let's just break up. We made several thousand dollars today, which is enough."

While speaking, Du Weiguo casually folded the banknotes in his hand and put them into the trouser pocket of his work clothes.

"You want to leave after winning the money? Do you know the rules?" The young boss suddenly became anxious. He kicked over the stool and stood up, pointing his finger like a halberd, grabbing Du Weiguo's wrist like an iron claw.

It must be said that his movements were extremely swift, not just ordinary fast, and he was obviously a martial artist.

But he had chosen the wrong opponent tonight. He dared to fight with Du Weiguo. He was like flashing a flashlight in the toilet, purely seeking death.

"Pop!" There was a crisp sound.

The young boss's right hand immediately drooped down. Feeling the pain, he covered his hand and sat back down.

No one present, including the young boss, could see clearly how Du Weiguo made his move.

"Heh~" Du Weiguo laughed, and fanned his face with the banknotes in his hand as if they were a fan, and said sarcastically in a playful tone:

"What? Robbery? Boy, do you want to eat raw rice?"

The young boss covered his hand tightly. He knew clearly that his wrist bone was dislocated and had several minor fractures.

The expert will know if it is there as soon as he reaches out his hand.

He knew instantly that he had run into a tough guy. If they just fought with fists and kicks, even if there were several of them, he would not be his opponent.

However, if he used other means, he might be able to fight, but because they were too shocking, he could not use them in public.

"Okay, okay, you're so cruel. I'll admit defeat tonight. Let's see what happens."

The young boss picked up the gold bars on the red cloth with his good hand, not even taking the porcelain bowl or the small stick with him. He squeezed out of the crowd and ran away in the blink of an eye.

"Hehe, I'm waiting for you, but don't make me wait too long." Looking at him walking away, Du Weiguo sneered.

A moment later, in a back alley not far from the night market.

"Da, da, da~"

Du Weiguo put his hands in his pockets, a cigarette in his mouth, and walked with a bold step, as if he didn't care about anyone.

"Hey~"

At this moment, a smooth pebble suddenly appeared in front of his eyes and smashed towards his face with a fierce roar.

It was really right in front of him, only a few centimeters away from his forehead.

However, Du Weiguo seemed to have anticipated this. He just turned his head sideways and dodged the incoming stone in the nick of time.

"Snapped!"

The stone hit the brick wall beside him and shattered into powder in an instant. The huge force made a shallow hole the size of a fist in the brick wall.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa~"

It was as if a switch was turned on, and then pebbles appeared one after another out of nowhere, pouring down like a rainstorm.

However, Du Weiguo remained calm and composed. He didn't even stretch out his hand and even still held the cigarette in his mouth. He just moved slightly and dodged all the stones.

"Tsk, you can't do that. The stone is too heavy, and your strength is too weak. It's so soft that it can't kill anyone."

Not only that, this grandson also has time to comment.

"Hmph!" A cold snort suddenly sounded in the darkness deep in the alley.

"Swish~" With a cold snort, three pebbles suddenly appeared in front of Du Weiguo. They were obviously smaller in size and their speed had indeed increased a lot.

The intensity of the attack increased, and Du Weiguo also felt some pressure. He finally took his hand out of his trouser pocket, but he only took out one hand.

"Clap clap clap!"

Du Weiguo's hands were like phantoms, as fast as lightning, and he knocked several pebbles into the air with his bare hands.

The hardness of his bones is now no less than that of alloy steel, and even the strength of his skin is comparable to several layers of thick cowhide.

After colliding with a few pebbles, his hand didn't even have a cut, just a slight pain.

"Fuck!" Seeing this scene, the young boss hiding in the dark was also stunned and couldn't help but curse.

The next moment, five pebbles came flying in the wind, but it was still useless as Du Weiguo slapped them all away like mosquitoes.

During this period, Du Weiguo never stopped moving forward. At this time, the distance between him and the boss was only a dozen meters.

At this distance, his spatial acceleration skills have basically lost their effect.

The boss's fighting style is quite technical. He first throws a pebble out with force, and then uses his special abilities to offset the middle part of the flight distance.

In this way, the kinetic energy of the pebble flying in front of Du Weiguo can basically remain at the state when it just left his hand. It is very practical and powerful.

Du Weiguo thought to himself that if this move was used by someone else, even if they sensed the danger in advance, probably only Miss Hu, Lin Jiaojiao, and Merlin could dodge it. Well, Ye Li should be able to dodge it too.

If it could be replaced with a more suitable iron tool, such as a steel shuttle or a throwing knife, it would be even more terrifying and would almost certainly hit the target.

This guy is a talented person and he is not a bad person at all.

He didn't try to kill him at the beginning. If there were five stones thrown at him, even Du Weiguo wouldn't be able to dodge so easily.

"Who are you?"

The young boss did not attack again. He had already understood that the man in front of him was a top master and he was not someone he could deal with.

Du Weiguo spat out the cigarette butt in his mouth, took off his work hat, and said lightly:

"My name is Wesley, have you heard of me?"

With the dim light in the dark alley, the young boss saw Du Weiguo's sealed divine face clearly, and then heard his words, he felt like he was struck by lightning.

"You, you are the evil spirit?"

"Yeah." Du Weiguo nodded: "I do have such a nickname in the underworld. Why? Have you heard of me?"

"Fuck! Are you a fucking demon? Who in Hong Kong Island, no, the whole world, hasn't heard of you?"

Because he was too excited, the young boss couldn't help but blurt out.

Du Weiguo was not angry. Instead, he took out a cigarette box, gave him a cigarette, and took one himself. He asked in a friendly manner:

"From your accent, you just came from the north? What's your name?"

After knowing that he was the evil spirit, the boss's attitude changed drastically.

He bowed respectfully to take the cigarette, and diligently took out his lighter to help Du Weiguo light the cigarette, and then lit it for himself.

"Thank you, Lord Sha Shen. My name is Qi Liang. I am from Xiangxi. I used to be a soldier and was later assigned to Zhaoqing.

Later, due to family background issues, I couldn’t bear it any longer and since there was no one left at home, I decided to move to Hong Kong Island.”

Du Weiguo didn't say anything. He reached out and turned over his palm to take a look. There were indeed thick gun calluses on his index finger and the base of his palm.

"Your abilities have never been shown in the North?"

Qi Liang quickly shook his head:

"No, I've never shown it. I know I shouldn't show it. Even after I came to Hong Kong Island, I never showed it."

"Ha~" Du Weiguo sneered:

"You haven't exposed yourself before? Don't you rely on your special ability to cheat people out of money when you're working at the night market?"

"Alas~" Qi Liang sighed: "Don't mention it, Lord Sha Shen, I am also forced into a corner!" (End of this chapter)
