In short, after Luo Chao's sowhat unreliable explanation, coupled with the change in Luo Chao's temperant, even if his explanation was still far-fetched, left people faintly inclined to believe him. Zuo Dahai and Tang Tianyi no longer pondered the changes in Luo Chao's deanor.
Seeing the skeptical expressions on Zuo Dahai and Tang Tianyi's faces disappear, Luo Chao seized the opportunity to ask Zuo Dahai a question, also to divert their attention.
Luo Chao asked Zuo Dahai, "Brother Zuo, you always said this gambling ga hard you. I wonder if I can know why you feel this gambling ga hard you?"
"Maybe it's all just that you were unlucky. If you were unlucky, even if you didn't play this gambling ga but played traditional gambling gas like five-card stud, mahjong, and Texas hold 'em, you'd also end up losing everything, going bankrupt!"
"In that case, you should say you were hard by your own greed and gambling, instead of solely blaming this gambling ga!"
"As you just said, when this ga was initially invented, it was used by those Black people who invented it as a pasti. Only later was it brought to the gambling world by a big shot, thus truly becoming a gambling ga."
"That is to say, there is actually nothing wrong with the ga itself, nor is there so demon residing in the ga. If it's purely used for gambling, not only this ga can be used for that."
"For instance, anything in our daily life can be gambled on, like ball gas, boxing matches, car races, and even chess gas traditionally regarded as intellectual sports can beco tools for gambling!"
"It's like how a kitchen knife was invented to help people better cut food, thereby cooking delicious dishes, but if used by the wrong person, even a kitchen knife can beco a murder weapon. But have you ever seen a law prohibiting the use of kitchen knives?"
"So, the fault isn't in the kitchen knife, those tools, or any so-called gambling gas. The fault only lies in the criminals who use these things to commit illegal acts!"
After advancing to the Second Layer of his Cultivation Technique, Luo Chao not only felt his physical strength had increased significantly, but he also felt his mind was more agile than before, his thoughts beca remarkably clear, and his spiritual realm seed to have undergone a qualitative leap!
Thus, after a brief thought, Luo Chao could articulate such a persuasive and philosophically rich speech.
"Hehe," Zuo Dahai suddenly smiled slightly after hearing Luo Chao's words, "Brother Luo Chao, if you had said this to before, I would have vehently opposed it. But now, I feel you are absolutely right, completely a truth. I fully agree with you."
"You're right. Is there really any demon residing in gambling gas in this world? I think the so-called demon only exists within our own hearts! Probably, we humans are the most terrifying and cruel demons in this world!"
After Luo Chao's internal energy impacted his soul and resolved his ntal knots, Zuo Dahai's thoughts and spiritual realm also improved by several levels.
Debating involves two people whose spiritual realms are about the sa level; otherwise, it only leads to contradictions and quarrels!
"However, although you are quite right, what I carry is more than just gambling." At this point, Zuo Dahai's expression suddenly dimd again, "Brother Luo Chao, in fact, after I lost all my savings back then, I already had a slight realization in my heart. However, although I realized the truth, those loan sharks never have such realizations!"
"Loan sharks?!" Luo Chao was slightly startled, thinking, "No wonder Zuo Dahai is in such a plight now; it turns out he also borrowed from loan sharks! Otherwise, with his mind and experience, as long as he had so capital to turn things around, he would probably accumulate a large fortune again within a few years! But I think those loan sharks don't have that kind of foresight and patience!"
"That's right, loan sharks!" Zuo Dahai secretly shook his head, seemingly ashad and unable to face his past deeds.
"Brother Luo Chao, you also know that for us who are addicted to gambling, nine out of ten would borrow money, and out of those ten, nine would borrow from loan sharks."
"After all, those loan sharks lurking in the casinos, ready to lend money to gamblers at any ti, are very dedicated! Before you borrow money, each one of them chats with you as if you are brothers, making you feel like you've made the best friends in the world!"
"And when you can repay the money, when those loan sharks borrow money to you, they won't even say a word more and won't even urge you to repay, making it seem like a bond between brothers!"
"Be aware that loan sharks can maintain good relationships with gamblers because they accurately grasp the gamblers' psyche!"
"Gamblers generally rarely lend money to each other because they know each other well and know the other party may not win in gambling, so the money might not be returned on ti."
"But loan sharks are different. No matter how destitute the gambler appears when borrowing money, they will lend money, and once they do, they appear sacred and grand in those gamblers' hearts! Little do they know, those who superficially treat gamblers like brothers are the real demons!"
"When you can repay the money, they treat you like family, but once they find you're at a dead end and can't repay, they will tear off their usual disguise, revealing their truly brutal side!"
"They'll co to your house every day demanding repaynt, sotis even beating and insulting you, and so will even use your family's safety as leverage to threaten you to repay!"
Saying this, Zuo Dahai suddenly beca teary-eyed, obviously recalling so unbearable mories.
After pausing for a mont, Zuo Dahai continued, "If gambling is a demon tempting into Hell, then loan sharks are probably the devil's claws dragging to the deepest part of Hell!"
"Alas!" Zuo Dahai sighed deeply, and at the sa ti, his thoughts returned to that night five years ago!
