Zuo Dahai tried to persuade Luo Chao to quit gambling, even insisted on forcing him to quit, which made Luo Chao find it somewhat amusing.

As someone who had to frequently enter some underground casinos for missions, Luo Chao probably understood the dangers of gambling better than anyone else.

Luo Chao knew that once you entered a casino, it became a place of interest pursuit, with countless schemes in mind, driven by nothing but greed, all aimed at winning money from others.

In this way, the human heart breeds endless evil thoughts.

Even if it is a close relative gambling against each other, there are surely hidden traps laid, and even friends gambling together become like enemies, only caring about their own winnings, not caring if others go bankrupt!

Moreover, in a casino, it's only about money, no one bothers who is noble or who is base.

Seating there abandons the order of seniority, and servants become friends, there is no distinction in status, surprisingly they can even call each other brothers.

Gamblers randomly mock each other, casually address each other, naturally losing one's character!

Besides, Luo Chao also knew that gambling particularly harms one's body.

In the casino, some people win and feel inspired, gambling day and night, while those who lose keep coming back, ignoring their own hunger and cold, continuously exhausting themselves, mentally fatigued, and over time it will surely damage health, even leading to death!

And once gambling debts pile up, hard to repay, one feels ashamed when meeting the creditor, swallows humiliation and feels forced to a sickly body.

In the end, at a dead end, they can only end it all by choosing death to settle the gambling debts, so the road to the city of wrongful deaths is in fact the gamblers' returning home!

Moreover, gambling not only sends your money to others but also makes you the laughing-stock, seen as a wastrel in a daze. Gambling not only destroys one's family assets but also has people saying their offspring are idiots committing sins!

In this way, not only is there no glory brought to the family name, but it brings disgrace to the household.

Relatives and neighbors all blame his ancestors for not accumulating virtue, so how could they have a wastrel like this as a progeny, causing his grandfather and father to roll in their graves with unjust resentment!

Thinking of this, Luo Chao couldn't help but say to Zuo Dahai, "Brother Zuo, I understand what you mean, you want me to quit gambling, right? But, I really don't like gambling!"

"Ah, I was the same as you before, I also didn't like gambling, but look at me now?!" Zuo Dahai sighed helplessly, "So whether you like to gamble or not, you must swear in front of me today never to gamble again!"

"This..." Luo Chao suddenly hesitated.

In fact, Luo Chao also understood Zuo Dahai's concerns.

Because Luo Chao knew that gambling is most seductive, for example, within a family, the place is small, it's easiest to see, hear, and learn.

Some elders often instruct their children saying, "You must follow good examples!"

However, when children see their father or older brother's behavior at home, they will say, "I want to learn by following this way."

So it becomes father gambling, son gambling, brother gambling, ending up with gambling by day, gambling deep into the night, hiding away to gamble, and the gambling atmosphere will also fuel immoral behavior, greatly damaging family conduct!

However, Luo Chao currently didn't have descendants, so he didn't have this concern.

His hesitation now was not because he liked gambling and was unwilling to quit, but because there was still the possibility of conducting strategic gambling with others in the future.

After all, as a Soldier King, during missions around the world, sometimes Luo Chao needed to disguise himself to get close to some lawbreakers.

And those lawbreakers often liked to go to casinos, so becoming a gambler in a casino was a good method to approach them.

But now Zuo Dahai wanted Luo Chao to quit gambling. You must know, Luo Chao was a man of his word. If he swore to quit gambling today, he would definitely not gamble again in the future!

Seeing Luo Chao seemingly hesitant, Zuo Dahai couldn't help but say, "Brother Luo Chao, what are you hesitating about! I must tell you, it's illegal to gamble in Huaxia!"

"And it's not just now, Huaxia has prohibited gambling since ancient times! I've checked the materials, ancient laws were much harsher on gambling than today's laws!"

"The lighter punishments involved a hundred strokes and two months wearing a cangue, while the severe ones locked you up for three years, banishing you to the Barbaric Land three thousand miles away, regardless of your status, you'll suffer punishment all the same!"

"So if a prominent local squire gambles and gets locked up or exiled, it's a knowing violation of the law, hence deserves double the punishment!"

Hearing Zuo Dahai's words, Luo Chao helplessly smiled bitterly, "Brother Zuo, I understand what you're saying, but I really..."

"Really what!" Seeing Luo Chao seemingly still "unrepentant", Zuo Dahai got a little angry, "Gambling attracts divine retribution! Throughout history, those who open casinos meet with misfortune, and those who win from gambling end up surprisingly poor, because they live on others' blood and flesh, filling their own stomachs, gathering others' resentment and distress for their amusement and pleasure! That's why the gods are particularly angry at such people!"

At this moment, seeing Zuo Dahai bring out the supernatural concepts to make him quit, several beads of cold sweat quietly dripped from Luo Chao's forehead.

Luo Chao knew that Zuo Dahai must have suffered terribly from gambling before and was determined to make others quit, thus becoming somewhat irrational in his thinking!

Just then, Zuo Dahai continued, "Brother Luo Chao, big brother earnestly hopes you will calmly consider, suddenly awaken, cut off the bad habit of gambling completely, and swear not to gamble ever again!"

"Then, it'll be easy to jump out of the wolf-like harming traps of gambling, you won't sink as deep as I did back then!"

"Alas! The harm of gambling surpasses even floods, fires, and thieves, yet people are especially enamored with it, stubbornly refusing to grasp its danger, some even lose their lives willingly, it is truly pitiable and heartbreaking!"

Zuo Dahai spoke with tears streaming down his face, driving while showing that as he persuaded Luo Chao to quit gambling, he must have regretted not understanding these truths earlier, ending up with a broken family!
