Chapter 193 Dai Zong’s Armored Horse

"You didn't lie to me?" Li Kui jumped up from the ground and said excitedly.

"What am I lying to you? I didn't lend you money just now because I was afraid that you would lose the money completely. With your head and luck, no matter how much money you have, I will not lose. I will accompany you to get some money and flowers for you. How about it, brother, I'm so righteous." Zhou Tian couldn't help but smile when he saw Li Kui's face was full of joy.

"Haha, you are my biological brother." After hearing Zhou Tianyi say that, Li Kui immediately rushed towards Zhou Tian with joy. He wanted to give Zhou Tian a warm hug, but he was afraid that he would be thrown out again, so Li Kui ran to Zhou Tian and quickly braked and stopped.

"If you have money, you are the real brother. Someone wanted to beat me just now." Zhou Tian smiled with his hands behind his back.

"Aren't I anxious?" Li Kui was straightforward. Seeing Zhou Tian say this, he kneeled down with a thud. "I apologize to my brother, hehe."

"Get up, get up." Seeing Li Kui like a child, Zhou Tian hurriedly pulled him up and said, "Which is the largest gambling house in the city? Let's go there to see it today."

"The largest gambling house in Jiangzhou City is Wanle Tower. It seems to be opened by the emperor's father-in-law, but I have never been there before. I heard that I would need at least one hundred taels of gambling to go there." Li Kui said.

"One hundred taels..." Zhou Tian thought for a moment and said, "Then go to the gambling hall you usually go to first. There should be no requirement for many gambling books there."

"They dare! Let's go, I'll accompany my brother to kill all directions." Li Kui responded and took Zhou Tian to the direction of the city.

With the development of the commodity economy, the various entertainment industries in the Northern Song Dynasty also flourished unprecedentedly, and gold sales caves such as brothels and casinos emerged. One of these two entertainment venues was opened by local officials or royal relatives, with a huge scale. The other was opened by private people, which was small and very irregular, and all the people of all religions and ranks. When Zhou Tian was a slut in Yanggu County, he controlled such a gambling house. However, since Yanggu County was just a small county town, Zhou Tian could not get much benefit from this gambling house at that time.

"Brother, we are here." Li Kui said, pointing to a small store. Li Kui, who had learned some lessons, was very respectful to Zhou Tian. In addition, he was also expecting Zhou Tian to reprint his book yesterday for him, so Li Kui continued to scream along the way.

This gambling house is the most common small gambling house in the city. Although the rooms are not big, there are many people, which are messy and smell like stinky feet.

There are three tables in the entire gambling house, each of which is surrounded by people. The things you bet on are the most common sieves, thrown into a bowl, betting on the big and small, betting on the small and fulfilling their destiny.

"Just that table." Zhou Tian didn't like the smell of stinky feet in the gambling house. After picking a table, he betted a ten tael of silver at will.

Zhou Tian had the stone-falling technique, so Zhou Tian could naturally control the size of the sieve at will. In two or three games, Zhou Tian won more than a hundred taels of silver. Zhou Tian was not here, so Zhou Tian, ​​who won a hundred taels of silver, took Li Kui to leave this gambling house full of smell of smelly feet.

"Hehe, brother, you have a good luck, much better than me." Li Kui was holding the silver and laughed. At this moment, he had recovered all the money he had lost in the past, and he had a surplus. How could he be unhappy? "Brother, let's go and drink, I'm a Tie Niu treat."

"Tie Niu, when is that? We just finished our meal, you won't be hungry now." It took less than half an hour for Zhou Tian to win the 100 taels of silver. Zhou Tian, ​​who had just finished eating and had not digested it, was not very hungry.

"Hehe, I'm not hungry either, but brother, you have won so much money for me. I have to repay you no matter how hard it is." Li Kui scratched his head and smiled.

"There is no need to repay me. Take me to Wanlefang. I didn't have fun just now. How about going to bet two more times? If you win, you will still have a 50% share of the money." The gambling house that Zhou Tian was looking forward to was not the small gambling house full of smell of smelly feet that he just saw, so Zhou Tian planned to meet Wanlefang.

"We're just going back to bet, why don't we go to Wanlefang? The place is quite far away." Li Kui muttered in confusion.

"The bets in this place are too small, it's boring to play. There should be big bets in Wanlefang. I won the last two times, maybe I can marry you a wife." The most important thing is that the smell of stinky feet almost made me vomit three times.

When Li Kui heard about marrying a wife, he grinned and said, "Okay, I'll listen to my brother, I'll take my brother there."

After walking around more than ten small alleys, Zhou Tian and Li Kui came to the door of Wanlefang.

The location of this Wanlefang is the most prosperous area in Jiangzhou City. There are many casinos and brothels. The largest brothel in Jiangzhou City is next to Wanlefang. However, it is not yet time for girls to welcome guests, so the brothel called Huichun Tower is far less prosperous than Wanlefang's business.

Although Wanlefang is the largest gambling house in Jiangzhou City, since the gambling industry in the Northern Song Dynasty was just starting, Zhou Tian did not find any other gambling tools except for the sieve. But this is good, Zhou Tian really doesn't have anything other than guessing the size.

Without the intrusion of the smell of smelly feet, Zhou Tian was finally able to make some money peacefully.

Because Wanlefang has a deep background and Zhou Tian is not willing to cause trouble, Zhou Tian is very cautious when using the rockfall technique, and has never guessed it several times in a row. However, because the bet is huge, Zhou Tian still earned a lot of money after this bet.

During the Northern Song Dynasty, there was no bargaining chips, so Li Kui could not hold on to the silver that Zhou Tian won, so Zhou Tian exchanged all the silver for gold and continued to kill all directions.

However, Zhou Tian, ​​who had opened the golden finger, felt a little bored. Zhou Tian could not feel the thrilling Zhou Tian that the gambler should have. Moreover, Zhou Tian had no place to spend the money he had won, so he probably had to be cheaper. The most important thing is that in two days, the boy from Song Jiang would be uneasy to write anti-poems, and even if he had money, he could not take it away.

The bored Zhou Tian was fiddling with the sieve in his hand. With a flash of eyes, he suddenly saw the brocade box in his hand.

"Look at how much gold can I exchange for ginseng." The rough man opened the brocade box in his hand, and there was a white, fat thing like a carrot inside.

The man opposite the rough man was a middle-aged fat man, wearing gorgeous clothes, and seemed to be a businessman. He took the rough man's brocade box and looked at it and said, "Ten gold bars are pressed down on the sky."

"Hmph, do you treat me like a fool?" the rough man slapped the table and said, "In our Jin Dynasty, there are at least twenty gold bars."

"The prices of the Song Dynasty and the Jin Dynasty are different." The middle-aged fat man said calmly.

"Even if there is a price difference between the two places, the price of this ginseng should be even more expensive than the Northern Song Dynasty." said the rough man.

Zhou Tian naturally heard the bargaining of the two. Just when the two were about to trade with thirteen gold bars, Zhou Tian suddenly inserted a squad and bought the Korean ginseng with twenty gold bars. Of course, Zhou Tian then bet with the rough man from the Jin Kingdom with twenty gold bars and bets on the size of the gold bars. The gold bars naturally returned to Zhou Tian's pocket.

Zhou Tian, ​​who had the treasure, did not stay in the casino anymore, but took Li Kui to buy some wine and meat to find Dai Zong.

Although Dai Zong was a civil servant in the country, with the establishment of the Song Dynasty at that time, Dai Zong's official position was not as good as the current neighborhood committee aunt. Therefore, the dream of buying a house was like a luxury for Dai Zong, who liked to make friends with people from the world. He had no loan at the time, and he couldn't even be a house slave. So Dai Zong, who was a bachelor, lived in the money-free land of Guanyin Temple near the Chenghuang Temple.

When Zhou Tian and Li Kui were bringing wine and meat, Dai Zong had just returned from get off work.

"Brother, look at what I brought you, the braised venison from Jade House and a jar of flower carving wine." When Li Kui saw Dai Zong, he raised the things in his hand and said, "Brother, I am rich now. Look at my robe, isn't it beautiful?"

"Iron Niu, did Brother Zhou Tian buy it for you?" Seeing the things in Li Kui's hand and the robe he passed on, Dai Zong turned his eyes and looked at Zhou Tian.

Zhou Tian just smiled and didn't say much.

"It's my Tieniu's own money." Li Kui smiled and said, "It was just given by Brother Zhou Tian. You don't know. Today, Brother Zhou Tian and I were in Wanlefang. We won forty or fifty gold bars alone. We have never seen that much money in our life. Now, if I win the money, I will buy something to honor you."

"I said why are you so generous?" Dai Zong asked Zhou Tian and Li Kui into the temple to attack Zhou Tian. "Don't blame me, my place is simple, so I'll make you laugh."

"Brother is very comfortable." Zhou Tian looked at the Guanyin Temple, which was given to Dai Zong as the king of the mountain. Although it was not big, there was nothing short of everything. Except for the lack of a kitchen, there were all kinds of daily necessities.

"I am alone, I'm not that particular." Dai Zong set up a stool for Zhou Tian and Li Kui, and drank wine and food on the table for a while.

"I'll tell you about the murder of all directions in Wanlefang today. By the way, Wanlefang..." As soon as the wine glass was put down, Li Kui's loud voice started to scream. Today, Li Kui knew what it means to spend a lot of money. His original bets were all small things. This extremely excited Li Kui naturally had to tell Dai Zong what he saw and heard.

This Li Kui is not only loud, but also a chattering chatter. He can't finish talking. After half an hour, Dai Zong couldn't stand it anymore and had to say something to brake Li Kui.

However, Li Kui obviously hadn't said enough to enjoy himself. After being interrupted by Dai Zong, he still muttered until Zhou Tian stuffed a piece of venison the size of a palm into his mouth, which was considered a silence.

Without Li Kui's murmur, the drink was much more enjoyable. Zhou Tian also took advantage of Dai Zong's drunkenness to inquire about his horse's horse that could travel 500 miles a day.

Dai Zong obviously didn't take the secret of his armored horse seriously. Before Zhou Tian could make any clichés, he dully came out by himself.

"This magical technique was passed down by a Taoist priest when I was young. When the Taoist priest passed me a mantra and the method of making the armor horse, I couldn't find anyone. I also continued the armor horse and the mantra to get the name of the Shenxing Taibao in the world." Dai Zong smiled and took out a yellow cardboard piece with many runes written from behind. "This is the armor horse. Although anyone can use it, if it is made and activated, there is no one else except the Taoist priest and I, Dai Zong."

Zhou Tian took the yellow paper from Dai Zong's hand and looked carefully. He posted it almost the same as his talisman, except that the words on it were not written, but some messy symbols.

"The dean is not afraid that this thing will attract others' attention." Zhou Tian asked after taking a sip of wine.

"Haha, brothers are worried too much." Dai Zong shook his head and smiled. "Now the trend of great scholars is in full swing. Whether in the temple or in the world, they always stay away from the power of ghosts and gods. In addition, it is extremely difficult to practice my skills, so even if I teach others the method of making the armored horse and the mental method I learned at the beginning, I am afraid that others may not be willing to learn it."

Zhou Tian nodded and tentatively said, "Oh, this is the case. I am a little interested in this magical technique. I wonder if the dean can give me some advice."

"Brother Zhou Tian wants to learn it? Haha, that's naturally there's no problem." Dai Zong laughed, took out something from behind and handed it to Zhou Tian and said, "I, Dai Zong, have taught others the magical practice technique, but even if they learn it, no one can really activate the armored horse. As for the method of making the armored horse, it's even more impossible to learn it. Well, this is the mental method I learned from the Taoist priests. Brother Zhou Tian can take a closer look first. It's not too difficult. I learned it in one day."

"Then thank you, Dean." Zhou Tian put down his wine glass, took the mental method and started to look around. After seeing this, Zhou Tian was shocked and found that the mental method of Dai Zong was actually a technique to cultivate spiritual power, but that technique was not inferior to Zhou Tian's "The Book of Heaven". Whether in terms of the speed of cultivation or the purity of the spiritual power generated, it was impossible to compare with the "The Book of Heaven".

"It seems that my "Book of Heaven" is a treasure." Zhou Tian shook his head and returned the mental method in his hand to Dai Zong.

"If Brother Zhou Tian has something you don't understand, you can ask me, so you don't have to give up so quickly." Dai Zong thought that Zhou Tian gave up because he couldn't understand his mental method, so he couldn't help but smile. Since Dai Zong got this mental method, he also wanted to pass on the mental method. However, he found that no matter who he taught this mental method, he could not cultivate what needed to activate the armor horse. When he saw Zhou Tian shook his head today, he felt that the other party must be the same as the person he taught before, and could not cultivate what needed to activate the armor horse.

Zhou Tian did not take over Dai Zong's words, but said, "Can the dean tell me the method of making the armored horse? I can try to make it? "

"What did Brother Zhou Tian say?" Dai Zong didn't expect Zhou Tian to ask him for the method of making the armor horse. He was stunned and did not hesitate. He took a piece of yellow hard paper without runes from beside him and said, "The method of making the armor horse is not special. You just need to write a few runes on the paper. As for what paper it is, it doesn't matter. It's easier for me to use this kind of paper, so I have been using it."

"It turns out that it is similar to the talisman." Zhou Tian suddenly realized his mind when he heard the method of making the armor horse that Dai Zong said. The legendary armor horse that travels 500 miles a day turned out to be that thing. The key to everything lies in the rune similar to the circle and fork.

Zhou Tian took the yellow paper and as his spiritual power was activated, he drew the same rune on the armored horse that Dai Zong had already made before.

"So much spiritual power..." Zhou Tian finished drawing the armored horse and felt the spiritual power in his body empty. He had consumed 80% of his spiritual power at once.

"What are Brother Zhou Tian doing?" Dai Zong couldn't help asking when he saw Zhou Tian holding his finger and scratching the randomly.

"Make a horse..." Zhou Tiandao.

"Haha... Brother Zhoutian is really good at joking." Dai Zong gave out a brush and a box of cinnabar and said, "Don't say that Brother Zhoutian didn't learn my mental method, even if he learned it, he had to use this wolf brush and cinnabar."

"Does the dean need these things to make this armored horse?" According to Zhou Tian, ​​the mental method learned by Dai Zong is just like the Book of Heaven. Therefore, Dai Zong has never learned the method of gods, but those people cannot learn it because they have no immortality. Zhou Tian also heard from Zhang Jiao that people with two levels of immortality must use cinnabar when making spiritual talismans. Now it seems that Dai Zong is a red or orange level immortality.

"Of course, otherwise it would be impossible to make an armored horse." Dai Zong nodded.

"Yeah, is that right..." Zhou Tian smiled and tied the armor horse he had made to his legs. Then he activated it as his spiritual power was activated.

"So fast..." Zhou Tian moved under his feet, but he jumped out of Guanyin Temple with one leg. The method of urging this armored horse was the same as Zhou Tian expected, and it was enough to inject spiritual power, but Zhou Tian ignored one problem after another - how to turn and stop this thing.

Although he didn't know how to stop, Zhou Tian's reaction was not slow. After leaving Guanyin Temple, there happened to be a jujube tree. Zhou Tian jumped and climbed onto the trunk, just so that the armored horse on his right foot could take the air, so he stopped.

"Director, come and help me, I can't stop!" Zhou Tian, ​​who was hanging on the jujube tree, shouted to Dai Zong for help. Dai Zong was holding meat in his mouth, his eyes slightly looking at the place where Zhou Tian was sitting just now. He seemed to be frightened by the scene just now.
