Returning from the Immortal World

chapter-44
“Grandmaster Jia, please!” Tang Xiu smiled at Jia Ruidao and made a gesture to invite the fight again.
Tang Xiu was truly grateful of Jia Ruidao.
If it were not for Jia Ruidao deliberately slowing down his speed in shaking the dices a moment ago, as well as exposing a lot of key things, Tang Xiu certainly wouldn’t be this fast in mastering the real technique in shaking the dices.
Jia Ruidao threw him a peach and Tang Xiu casted a plum.
The 2 people’s eyes locked a brief flash of a moment. Outsiders simply couldn’t see that the relationship between the two already had a subtle change.Jia Ruidao was after all the expert that was invited by Zhang Deqin with a sky-high price to deal with the Long’s Dining Hall. So it was natural that he couldn’t exchange pleasant and affectionate words with Tang Xiu. Had Jia Ruidao won, everything would be alright. But if it was the reverse, this matter would be an absolute misunderstanding, and people could say that the gamble had been manipulated.
Jia Ruidao nodded his head to Tang Xiu and then picked up the dice cup again as he began the third gambling session between the two of them.
This time, Jia Ruidao put 5 dices into the dice cup.
As the dice cup shook, a trace of brilliant light flashed on Jia Ruidao’s eyes as his wrist vibrated with an orderly rhythm.
A burst of clear brushing sounds could be heard as muffled and dull thumping sounds followed, along with a burst of sharp sounds.
5 dices were colliding with each other in the dice cup. One sound was the sound of the dice ramming inside the dice cup in rhythmic order, as the others scattered and flew around. The other 6 or 7 sounds blended together as the sounds unexpectedly composed a rhythmically cheerful and bright sonata.
“Ah! Originally, gambling also could be played like this?” Tang Xiu could feel an intense fighting spirit that was being exuded from Jia Ruidao. His eyes turned bright as he saw Jia Ruidao’s eyes also turned burning hot.Tang Xiu also could feel that Jia Ruidao acting like this was neither because he was not appreciative of his ability nor because he wanted to reverse the current, but it was his decision to go all out.
This was also the situation Tang Xiu was hoping to happen. It was true that Jia Ruidao’s fighting spirit certainly sparked and became excited because he met his match in Tang Xiu, after being lonely at the peak for so long. Since Tang Xiu unexpectedly had challenged his own limits, he finally could feel the true pleasure of gambling, rather than becoming a winner in a gamble through others who modestly accepted defeat.
Jia Ruidao’s wrist shook as the dice cup was like a butterfly dancing in the air. Naked eyes were unable to trace anything as everyone could only see a beautiful arc path, whilst a confident and calm smile emerged on Jia Ruidao’s face.
Everyone in the room apparently had never thought that Jia Ruidao would be this unique. They were all stunned as the music from the dice cup suddenly reverberated in the room.
The music was giving off a very wonderful feeling. Never even once had anyone ever imagined that the full rhythmic melody sounds from shaking dices would be this wonderful and pleasant to hear.
Almost everyone stared at Jia Ruidao. Along with each and every jitter and movement his wrist made, they involuntarily nodded with an enthralled expression on their faces.
For fear of disturbing Jia Ruidao’s rhythm and tempo, nobody even dared to breathe heavily in the room. They only watched with eyes opened wide and holding their breath, as they motionlessly immersed themselves in the wonderful journey brought by Jia Ruidao.
The time passed without anyone noticing, as everyone finally woke up from the dream by dull thumping sounds. They looked up and saw that Jia Ruidao had stopped his movements as he buckled up and put down the dice cup on the table.
“Grandmaster Jia is really great.”
“Holy Lord! This is real gambling skills. The other Gambling Masters we have seen before were simply are too pale in comparison.”
