Chapter 172: What is gambling

Lin Feng had to praise Zhang Xing in his heart: What a strong memory!

Moreover, Lin Feng had no doubt that when he shuffled the cards just now, Zhang Xing had completely memorized the positions of all the cards. Every card has been moved in Lin Feng's hand, and after changing positions, Zhang Xing can remember it so clearly, this memory is quite amazing.

"Not necessarily!" Lin Feng said with an unfathomable smile on his face: "Since the two of us are gambling, let's just bet a little more neatly and bet bigger!

"Oh, what do you say?" Zhang Xing seemed to be interested, leaned over and asked.

"I've already pushed the cards out, and it's impossible to change the position anymore. Lin Feng pointed to the pai gow that was pushed out of a column on the table, and said: "I also admit that I can control the number of dice, just according to what you just said, I roll a single point, or you specify a single point, let's compare the size of the cards."

If, as you say, your hand is lower than mine, then I lose! If the other way around, you have a card higher than mine, you lose!

Zhang Xing touched his chin, looked thoughtful, nodded slowly, and said, "It seems to be very interesting!"

According to Zhang Xing's current appearance and normal routines, Zhang Xing's next sentence should be to accept Lin Feng's proposal.

However, Zhang Xing shook his head slowly and said, "I am a person who enjoys the process of gambling, so I will not accept your proposal." ”

Hearing Zhang Xing's words, Lin Feng had a black line on his face, and said in a deep voice: "Zhang Xing, between you and me, it's just a gamble, and the most important thing is the result." And no matter what kind of gambling game it is, the most important thing should be the result, right? I believe that a person like you, who enjoys the process of gambling, should also be a person who pays attention to results, right?"

"You're right, I'm process-oriented. Zhang Xing spread his hands and said, "However, I am not an adventurous person! I like to gamble with confidence, and I see confidence in your face, so I dare not take this risk." ”

"Haha!" Hearing Zhang Xing say this, Lin Feng laughed loudly: "You are simply a paradox! You like to gamble, enjoy the process of gambling, pay attention to the results of gambling, but you don't like to take risks to gamble? Gambling itself should be risky, people who really enjoy gambling are to enjoy the process of this adventure, to experience the surprise brought by winning, or the disappointment or even despair brought by losing.

You don't like to take risks, and you are still talking about this gambling word in this big talk? If you don't take risks, how can you enjoy the gambling process, and how can you talk about the surprise or disappointment of the result?

In my opinion, you don't deserve to talk about this gambling word at all! Because you're not a real gambler! If I'm right, you're a vetchman, and besides, a pretty skilled vetch!"

"Oh, where did you see that?" asked Zhang Xing with interest.

"The fingers of your hands are slender and slender, which is the basic trait of Lao Qian, and there is a thin layer of calluses on your fingers, and there will be calluses in this part of the fingers, indicating that you have been practicing for a long time and using the fingers. Lin Feng said with a smile: "The only one who can use his fingers and belly to practice is Lao Qian." In addition, just now you shuffled this deck of pai gow before I shuffle the cards, although you have deliberately concealed your technique, but long-term practice, but you will unconsciously use the old tricks. ”

"Awesome. Zhang Xing looked admiring and gave Lin Feng a thumbs up.

Lin Feng sighed and said, "It's really not interesting to bet with an old man like you. Because the profession of Lao Qian itself is a business of cheating with thousands of tricks to win. That's why I said you don't deserve to talk about the word gambling, and you really don't deserve to talk about the word gambling.

What you just said is, to me,, because your long-term habit has made you unable to experience the fun of gambling, and winning is your real goal. And the real meaning of gambling is to take risks! You can no longer understand the word risk, and you will not be able to appreciate the true meaning of gambling. ”

Hearing Lin Feng's words, Zhang Xing fell into deep thought.

After a short time, Zhang Xing stood up and kept going around in circles in this chess and card room.

It seems that Zhang Xing was turned around by Lin Feng's words.

Mei'er snorted lightly at this time and said: "The surname Lin, I think what you said is, betting, in the final analysis, you still want to win, otherwise, who would gamble? ”

Hearing Mei'er's words, Zhang Xing, who had been going around in circles, stood still, and the look on his face was a little confused.

Obviously, Mei'er's words were for Zhang Xing, not Lin Feng!

Lin Feng smiled slightly and said: "I didn't say anything about accusing Lao Qian, in my opinion, since Lao Qian's business exists, there is a reason for its existence, there are not so many gamblers, how can Lao Qian's business appear? To put it bluntly, in fact, it is still the darkness in people's own hearts that is at work."

If you want the old man to disappear, it's actually very simple, but it's also very difficult, as long as no one gambles, no matter how awesome the old man is, he will starve to death! This method is quite simple, but it can't be achieved at all.

What I just said did not mean to target the profession of Lao Qian, but only to say that in this way, as a Lao Qian, people can no longer understand the fun of gambling, and cannot enjoy the process of gambling, as well as the emotional fluctuations that come from the results of gambling.

An old man talks about gambling, talks about enjoying gambling, what is this not?"

Mei'er looked unconvinced, and opened her mouth to argue with Lin Feng again, but Zhang Xing waved his hand at this time, preventing Mei'er from continuing to speak.

Zhang Xing walked to Lin Feng and sat down, sighed, and said, "You are right, an old man is indeed not worthy of talking about the process of enjoying gambling, and the result!"

After a pause, Zhang Xing raised his head, looked at the fluorescent lamp on the ceiling, and said lightly: "I was originally a gambler, after losing and bankrupting, I embarked on the road of Lao Qian, with my outstanding talent, and my efforts, I soon became famous in this industry."

And the net worth I lost is back in my hands again. However, I gradually lost the joy of gambling, and I became less and less able to feel the thrilling feeling in the process of gambling, and the ecstatic feeling that it brought me after winning! Although I have been claiming that I enjoy gambling, I really can't experience this feeling of enjoyment more and more. ”

Hearing Zhang Xing's words, Mei'er looked dumbfounded.

Lin Feng smiled noncommittally, this result was not unexpected. An old man, no matter how he pretends to be at the gambling table, no matter how similar the performance is, in fact, in his heart, he can't experience the thrilling feeling when gambling, even if he wins in the end, they can't experience the joy of winning.

Because they have already used a thousand techniques, which is what we often call a thousand old people, and as a result, they already know that the result of victory is not a surprise to them.

How can a thing that already knows the result surprise and surprise?

Winning a bet can bring people a feeling of joy, which is nothing more than an accident to joy, or a surprise. Once you know what the outcome of the bet will be, it can be boring.

"Actually, I haven't done it in years. Zhang Xing raised his hands to the fluorescent lamp, as if admiring a perfect work of art, and said: "However, you made me have to use my thousand skills to win you, because this is the rule, it is the rule of the old Qian's business, as a young man, I must abide by this rule and use my thousand skills to defeat you." ”

"Give me a reason. Lin Feng nodded lightly and said.

"Because not long ago, you injured two old people. Zhang Xing looked indifferent, shrugged his shoulders, and said: "You left their two hands! You must know that Lao Qian eats with one pair of hands, and if you leave their two hands, it is equivalent to giving them a death sentence and cutting off their way of life."

And the two of them are my people, so I came forward to bet on you and use my thousand skills to win you, and if you lose, you must pay the price of two hands!"

"I see. Lin Feng smiled and said, "However, you should also understand that those two hands were automatically sent to the door by them." There's no reason why I shouldn't take their two hands! and I think the two of them have gone too far, and it's actually quite cheap to keep them two. ”

"You're right. Zhang Xing nodded and said: "The two of them didn't do it right, you just let them spit out what they got in their hands, but you can't punish them, and someone will do what they are punished, but it will definitely not be you." In addition, although their two hands are voluntarily paid, but Lao Qian's business, when he meets his peers, pays attention to being a person and leaving a line, and you have surpassed them so much, but you have done too much. ”

"Haha, you treat me as a Qian?" Lin Feng was a little crying and laughing.

"I know you're not a boss. Zhang Xing nodded and said, "Maybe it shouldn't be said that you are skilled in a thousand skills, but in short, you are very good at this aspect, and I think in my heart that you can have a thousand skills." Therefore, the thousand-technique duel between the two of us is a must, and it will also fall on this deck of pai gow. ”

After a pause, Zhang Xing said again: "However, I hope to make a real bet with you!"
