A gambling den on West Tiger and Leopard Hall Street, a territory under the jurisdiction of the Tiger and Leopard Hall.
A long, crimson-lacquered wooden table had sections marked for the Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, and Black Tortoise. A crowd was gathered around it, with people tossing handfuls of silver onto the table from time to time.
Among them, Yang Yan sat sprawled arrogantly, one foot propped on a stool. A faint smile played on his lips as he eyed the fifty taels of silver on the "Azure Dragon" section. With a grand wave of his hand, he called out:
"Reveal!"
The dealer shaking the dice cup nearby heard him and immediately put on a sycophantic smile, shaking the cup with a flourish. When he lifted the lid, he instantly shouted:
"Two eyes to the heavens, a twelve and a four! Big Dragon! Master Yang!"
"You've won again!"
As he finished speaking, he looked on fawningly as Yang Yan roared with laughter, raked in the silver, and shot him an "approving" glance.
