小羽拉著白爺離開，剩下黑爺和吼天犬還留在賭枱。「這群銅人都是共犯，全都是！他們合作去騙取黑爺的！」黃炏待他們離開聽力範圍，急不及待嚷著。吼天犬一隻耳朵轉過來，看來也正在偷聽。503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEqOYfeEYeW
503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFhmQL4SKgZ
「你有證據嗎？」白爺質疑道：「唔...番攤要出千，至少要辦得到兩件事：事先知道碗內的銅板數量、還有可以操縱點數。我看不出單憑合作就可以解決這兩個問題。連我再眼明手快，也看不清楚...」503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡswZlJxAIc7
503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuNCSDduhxq
「不不不...他們數的不是碗內的銅錢。」黃炏雙手插袋：「是碗外面的。」503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx7T5ynrPTM
503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZNzySHb5FZ
「甚麼？」503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMdUdDX5LiG
503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpvPB06RsG6
「那些銅錢上都寫著乜乜寶通、物物寶通的刻印，加上不同程度的光鮮暗啞程度，我猜他們早練好怎麼分工合作，一人負責一款。比方說鮮金色的永祿通寶，桌面上就有八枚。若然蓋好碗子後還有五枚，那就表示碗內蓋住了三塊永祿通寶了。」黃炏解釋道：「蓋碗後有三數分鐘下注吧，足夠他們數清楚自己負責那款銅板在碗外還剩下多塊。一次點算數百多塊銅錢應該來不及，只數自己那款，應該沒甚麼難度。」503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0TttdHhOls
503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNT8xET2NrR
小羽鎚一下手心，一副彷然大悟的樣子。白爺眉頭皺作一團：「但他們怎樣互相通報？」503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0uIxBSWfQ3
503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1jLp7yLHTU
「下注。他們靠下注傳達訊息。」黃炏下意識的回望黑爺那邊：「每位銅人下注的號碼，就是碗內那款銅錢的數量。莊家只要算一下各銅人的下注的選擇，自然知道裡面的銅錢數量。繼而知道黑爺押對還是押錯了！」503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡseiazUn6IU
503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡASBII3u7V6
小羽也裝酷擺出，我副偵探小說的表情：「我知我知...兇手就在我們這裡！那木桌子其實穿了個洞，好讓他們隨時拿走銅錢！」503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGLWtpVIW8k
503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo11PuY55BQ
「怎可能呢，那只是尋常餐廳裡的木枱...」白爺沒好氣的反駁這粗疏的推論。503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlqvRI2nGW8
503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3E6WTSndfp
「銅錢沒離開過賭枱。」黃炏搖搖頭，舉起一隻手指：「要更改賽果，只須要把一枚銅錢吸在碗底...」503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxXqyEeTjqy
503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0SScTd31an
「吸？怎樣吸？」503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡamx0vfLHoU
503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi4Fh189xQM
「磁鐵。」黃炏臉上慢慢浮起一道笑意：「莊家銅人的手指不是銅、更不是金，是磁鐵。就連桌上的銅板也是電鍍了銅的鐵。有幾枚比較老舊銅板鏽跡不是氧化銅的綠色，而是氧化鐵的紅色，就是最好的證明。其他銅人都是從臉上開始貼金，只有莊家把黃金先貼在容易磨損的手上，你們不覺奇怪嗎？最合理的解釋就是他的手都鍍上黃金，就是怕廚房工作令磁鐵損耗，敗露痕跡。莊家手上的金箔就是掩眼法的布幕。」503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmlZWQi08Y0
503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkMba2IS7ZZ
白爺一副讚嘆的樣子，沒想到這書呆子腦筋這麼靈光！503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIxW8oo7ybo
503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkQ96MR3XTE
「我猜莊家手指頭的磁力，只是剛好夠吸起一塊銅錢。這比較容易控制，而且不容易察覺。用來對付黑爺一個賭客，已經綽綽有餘了。」503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMhCOYDhmXx
「所以說...他們可以預先知道每局的結果，還可以隨時左右賽果。難怪黑爺長賭長輸。」白爺把手格在劍柄：「好把，我們回去拆穿他們的把戲，軀補這局群老千。」503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIItx0pferw
503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSF7f7xCRMJ
「別急，你這樣押走他們，黑爺被他們騙走的血汗錢就變成賊贓被充公了。」燭火在黃炏眼鏡片上反射出一抹鬼異的光芒：「賭枱上的恩怨，就在賭枱分勝負。」503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqCXZ8peJro
503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfvRnFyuWmu
「明知他們出千，怎麼還跟他們對賭？」503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEz3dVUIuG7
503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmkM0XFAtXH
「放心，我已經想到了一套方法...」黃炏邁步回去賭枱：「一套必勝法！」
黃炏三人坐回賭枱，莊家望著還未下注的白爺：「客倌快點買兩手啊，不賭不知時運到。」503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8gzuDY9rJZ
503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYTkRtYTkX8
「好啊。」白爺掏出幾錠金子和白銀。503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx7gqr1Diqu
503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDAJNszIsnH
小羽伸手向白爺：「我也好想試一下，白爺可以借我幾兩銀嗎？」503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ78BlIiy8Px
503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQUv59brex2
「休想。」503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEMYjGiVcMX

「孤寒鬼。」503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDbV1dKoMRG
503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0hLf9tAv8O
莊家再次蓋好銅錢，各個合謀的銅人紛紛下注。黃炏在小羽白爺手背點上暗號：這舖開兩點。503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi6VZCEMyqu
503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv6n7csSkP0
黑爺猶豫了半天，拿著錠銀子在半空中忽左忽右。看來他已經輸了不少，注碼卻愈下愈大，大概是想早點翻身吧。「好，今場買...二！死就死吧，哂冷八十兩！」503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKZbVBI4aTT
503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5JBnK6RHSl
「好，買定離手！」503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡztriIyuWZZ
503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcAFWOhcSqz
「等等。」503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvLamEvb3LO
503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2r3PKwLM96
黃炏點算一下手上的銀子，一堆推出去『一』那一格：「七十九兩，買『一』。」503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEw3M2wBBtm
503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeouUr5D0El
「甚...甚麼！？」莊家忽然呆住了不懂反應。503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS9pxLIyRhY
503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtv3DkNTwPa
「有問題嗎？我買七十九兩銀。一注獨贏買『一』。」黃炏仍是呆呆的一副表情，冷靜地望著不知所措的莊家，其他閒家銅人也開始竊竊私語。503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUZufgZI1ZR
503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtJU8WeTpjc
白爺暗地拍掌，這下才明白黃炏的必勝法：他正在等當黑爺押對的一局，再以僅僅比黑爺少一兩的注碼，押在少一點的號碼上。以這局為例，莊家直接開盤就是開『二』，就要賠黑爺320兩；倘若莊家出千使餘數減一，就變成黃炏押對了，要賠他316兩。兩害取其輕，莊家沒選擇，只好讓黃炏贏大錢！503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgxf2h6qJDB
503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6i2YKTq65r
莊家慢慢打開碗蓋，是『一點』，黃炏勝！503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSELEnXdCfW
503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLE4yAMENEi
「媽的！你這兔冤子甚麼狗屎運？一坐下來就贏大錢。」黑爺一張苦瓜臉，錢包裡只剩下幾文錢。503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF8A4Xp2wtl
503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6a5wBFUjI4
「黑爺不打緊，這二百兩借給你。」黃炏把獎金分了一大筆給黑爺，他的臉就如死灰復燃一樣，登時轉了色。503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjWkLj8nwJJ
503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfmcLkbNPr5
「哇哈哈，連本座也走狗屎運呢！」黑爺爺捋起衣袖，雙臂露出十數條醒目的疤痕：「來來來！」503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa4p2o4YKm5
503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW3nIy8nMyu
小羽望著莊家銅人的禿頭，冒出一顆一顆斗大的汗珠。黑爺確是走了狗屎運，再次意外地押了在正確的『四點』上面。503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9p2pN1zujs
503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZbp4W2vjHS
「199兩，買三。」黃炏近乎庸懶的把一推銀子推到桌上。503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy6kh69smGz
503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡemAEh38pvy
看乎幾個銅人閃縮的眼神，幾乎肯定知道詭計已經敗露，也都理解到黃炏的把戲。莊家再次無從選擇下讓黃炏勝了，這下可賠得不輕，幾乎把莊家過往一年掙的錢都倒貼了。503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu7aQHAZDKp
503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVqWnaExo59
「時候不早了，我們就這樣結束吧...」莊家決定斬纜。503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTrIwVZDxcC
503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4vt536FAr1
「甚麼？你割禾青？」黑爺重重的一掌拍在桌上，嚇得十幾個銅人身體一下子僵直。另一個銅人搭訕道：「黑爺，時候真的不早了。況且你朋友已經贏了好多好多...」503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡePvO8dp4Nu
503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFLg3l1Ze4W
「我輸了幾十年也未出聲。今天我老友才贏你一千幾百兩，你吵甚麼吵！」黑爺臉上陣紅陣黑，看來酒量也見頂，要速戰速決。可是...銅人猜到黃炏識破他們出千，經過今晚以後，相信這群老千再也不會和黑爺再賭。之前幾十年輸掉了的賭本恐怕沒可能追討回來。503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhn7XYSiHMQ
503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHnhUFoOIXZ
黑爺醉薰薰地打個飽嗝：「喔...至少多賭一局。」503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQyHcnBsr5p
503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfNVxJeRoC8
「好吧好吧...這是最後的咧。」莊家免為甚難，反轉碗子開局。503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIGyR4R9Lw2
503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr9CMpYZK13
「甚麼，這麼快就玩完！人家還未賭過！」小羽跳上跳下，押下剛才白爺送她買冰糖葫蘆的銅板：「銅人大叔，我只有一文錢，可以也讓我玩一下嗎？」503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Osr9rJCLv
503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvs73pjRssT
「不可以啊...下注最少一兩。」莊家懶得應酬小羽，把注意力放回黑爺和黃炏身上。黑爺拿著一百兩銀，手汗把銀子都弄濕：「我...買一！」503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPttIN2r6gf
503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzmCP66Q3Fc
黃炏即時數算銅人下注暗號...糟糕...正確答案是『三點』啊！503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2sIQsUzqGT
503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgVmy5pArnb
黃炏抓抓頭，對著白爺崇了崇肩，一副「沒法子喔」的表情。黃炏的必勝法可沒辦法一局之內賺回幾萬兩銀...而且黑爺買錯，黃炏根本就沒戲唱。503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtedX6oejvc
503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYOGJXSIqSk
莊家呼了一口氣，雖然今晚是賠本了，但他們騙了他幾十年，總算是全身而退...503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8b1irYQJiP
503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLwDM9XZQqB
「白爺，這銀票借我玩一下！」小羽一手搶手白爺跟前的銀票，白爺還沒反應過來，小羽拍一聲的把銀票押在『三點』上面。503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL8WS6OtOmv
503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKUBYaucqZE
「買定離手！」503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN2iH1ZYwfq
503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK007Sx0FCA
莊家立即叫停，白爺眼巴巴的望著賭枱上的銀票：「小羽妳瘋了嗎？那是一．萬．兩．銀的銀票啊！」503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTXHtlMuUsk
503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAAc3gAyzMf
「噢...」小羽的笑容僵了一下，輕輕的問：「呃...一萬兩銀是很多的嗎？」503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaUmXXCzZHC
503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡskGcLC6Lcq
站在外圈的銅人突然雙眼發光，焦點落在那張輕飄飄的一萬兩銀票上。這趟走運了，他們早計到碗子是『三點』，可是只要莊家出術把點數弄小，這一萬兩就穩賺了！503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxk4uYCYNtN
503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT6b6NF9Yud
沒想到最後關頭竟然扳回一仗，這一萬兩銀十幾個同謀分，也夠買好幾片金啊！503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuvs19AeNAo
503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiCJEJJ9Dlh
莊家急不及待打開碗子，再下意識的望望碗子，裡面已經成功用手指吸走一枚銅錢。換句話說，碗子裡本來是『三點』的餘數，已經被偷偷換成『兩點』...503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXOOwBoLGvv
503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw7cB2uCpDW
一臉貪婪的銅人莊家慢慢把銅錢四個四個分開...503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlAe8WJcEYx
503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcsB8IRbDuk
十一個...七個...三個...餘數是『三點』...503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn6PDwn6YQp
503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf4m7SyZQUf
甚麼！餘數是三點！？503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcGRM6o4xhV
503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ97fYvzgwFA
「Yeah！」小羽跳了開來：「童子手童子手旗開得勝！銅人大哥連本帶利，盛惠四萬兩！」 503Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡooyghQUU0Q
