Encountering a Casino

It's understandable that I felt incredibly bored after traveling for nearly ten days through a desolate area.

After Xuan Ye dealt with the bandits, the carriage traveled for several more hours through the desolate area before finally reaching the town.

It's already evening, and the sun, which was originally high in the sky, has slowly sunk to the middle of the mountain. The afterglow of the evening shines on the earth, making it look exceptionally beautiful.

Xuan Ye also heard the shout from the person named Daigen Isseki. He opened his eyes, which had been closed for an entire afternoon, rubbed them, and looked into the distance.

At this moment, Xuan Ye saw the true face of this town. Compared with the small town he had visited last time, he felt that this town was much larger than the last one, and there were many more people on the streets. Perhaps only such a prosperous place could be called a town!

When you want to enter this town, there is naturally a checkpoint at the gate for inspection. This checkpoint is specifically used to check bandits and people who commit crimes against the state.

Actually, this is only for those who don't have much strength. If a ninja comes, the checkpoints in this town are practically useless. If a ninja wants to enter this town, he just needs to jump in. I don't believe that a ninja can't even get over the city wall.

Of course, Xuan Ye did not reveal his identity as a ninja. Instead, he went through the inspection with the caravan. The inspectors only glanced at the goods and quickly let them pass, without even looking at anything else.

After completing the inspection, Xuan Ye and his group finally arrived in the town and entered this extremely prosperous town.

After entering the town, Xuan Ye had no further dealings with the caravan members, and quickly bid them farewell.

The people in the caravan seemed very reluctant to see Xuan Ye leave, perhaps because of the ten days or so they had spent together, or perhaps because he had saved their lives. Whatever the reason, the separation would have to continue.

After parting ways with the caravan, Xuan Ye wandered around the town at his leisure, enjoying the sights and buying many snacks.

To be honest, there are so many snacks in this town. These snacks basically fill both sides of the town's streets. Not only are there many snacks, but they are also very delicious. Xuan Ye felt like he was in paradise, so happy that he could almost fly away.

"Hmm! I'll buy a few skewers of this grilled squid, a few skewers of this grilled fish, a few skewers of this grilled meat, and I'll also have some of these meatballs."

At a roadside stall, Xuan Ye stood at the very front. There were many people watching nearby, and the business was booming, with a wide variety of food available.

"Mmm! Delicious, delicious, so delicious." Xuan Ye held about a dozen skewers of various barbecued meats in his hand, taking a bite of each skewer.

For some reason, it seems that after leaving Konoha Village, Xuan Ye's appetite has grown bigger and bigger. After his eyes turned red when he killed someone, his appetite doubled. Xuan Ye didn't know why, but since it didn't cause any harm and he had a lot of money, he didn't pay too much attention to Xuan Ye.

After Xuan Ye had eaten all the snacks in the neighborhood, his stomach was finally full, and the uncomfortable feeling of hunger finally disappeared.

After trying almost every stall on the street, he had spent nearly two thousand taels of silver. Xuan Ye felt that the silver was indeed quite durable.

I still have nearly three million silver notes on me, which should be enough for the time being out here! Even if it's not enough, that's okay. If we run out of money, we can use some special methods!

Xuan Ye stood on the street, walking blankly, his mind wandering to some mysterious things unknown to others.

Now that I've arrived in this town, I might as well explore it a bit more. If I don't have some fun, I'll really feel bad for myself and for wasting so much time sitting in the carriage these past few days.

As I was walking through this large town, I was drawn to a bustling shop.

"What kind of shop is this? Why is it so noisy? Why are so many people shouting and yelling inside? Aren't they tired of shouting like that?"

Xuan Ye tilted his head and thought for a while, but he still couldn't come up with a solution. He couldn't figure out what kind of shop this was.

"Forget it! Let's not think about it anymore. Since we don't know what kind of shop this is, why don't we just go in and take a look?" Xuan Ye smiled as he looked at the shop in front of him, thinking that the idea he had just come up with was absolutely brilliant.

Time flew by as Xuan Ye reveled. When they arrived in the town, it was only early evening, but now the sun had already set, and night was probably just around the corner.

Xuan Ye slowly walked towards the shop. When he reached the front of the shop, two burly men suddenly appeared Xuan Ye blocked his way.

After blocking Xuan Ye's path, they showed a strange expression on their faces. "Hey, little brat, this isn't a place for you. Get out of the way. If you block some big shots and offend them, we won't be able to protect you."

Xuan Ye looked at the two burly men blocking his way, somewhat puzzled, "Where is this place? Why can't I come here?"

"This is a place for rich people. If you're a little brat and don't have money, don't come here." The two burly men standing outside the door tried their best to explain to Xuan Ye.

"Heh! You can't come to this place without money?"

Xuan Ye smiled. He didn't know what kind of shop this was at first, but when he heard people shouting "Big Big Big, Small Small" inside, and heard the two burly men saying that you can't come if you don't have Xuan Ye, he became even more certain of his idea.

Xuan Ye reached into his pocket and took out tens of thousands of taels of silver notes. He waved them in front of the two roughnecks and said with a smile, "Now that I have money, can I go in?"

One of the two roughnecks wanted to say something, but the other, who hadn't spoken since they came out, tugged at his companion and gave him a knowing look. The other man, who had wanted to stop Xuan Ye, fell silent, though a hint of reluctance remained in his eyes.

"Haha! Young master, since you have money, why can't you come in! Hurry up and come in. This kind of place is opened for rich gentlemen like you. If you are not qualified to come in, then who is?" The burly man laughed, bowing slightly as he spoke politely to Xuan Ye.

After saying that, he quickly stepped aside to make way for Xuan Ye, who looked like a child.

After the two roughnecks made way for him, Xuan Ye smiled and slowly walked into the casino.

Just as Xuan Ye was about to step into the casino, the other burly man's expression of reluctance intensified, and he involuntarily took a step toward Xuan Ye's location.
