Chapter Seventy-One: Death's Choice
This is a richly decorated casino, and when you enter from the main entrance, you are greeted by a smiling waiter in a smart suit.
"Hello sir, is this your first time here?"
The waiter was kind and kind.
Li Gengxin nodded, was led to the front desk, looked around, many luxuriously dressed people, either holding red wine, champagne, walking around, or in front of a large table, excitedly engaged in the game.
There are pai gow, dice, poker, mahjong and so on, and there are so many items that it is dazzling.
However, it may have something to do with the identity of the people who enter and exit these places, and it is not as noisy, smoky, and extremely poor as in the movies or ordinary small chess and card rooms on the street.
On the contrary, the environment is great.
"How many chips do you want to change, sir?"
The waiter politely bent down and asked.
Li Gengxin pulled the waiter aside, crawled into his ear and whispered, "I want to use this life as a bargaining chip, do you have something to play here?"
The natural conditions of the slight chaos in J City have become a paradise for many 'Monopoly', gambling, seizing affairs, including some underground secret activities, including buying lives.
Some tycoons, after the material reaches a certain height, the psychology is very changeable, they will give the poor a sum of money, to play with life, such as Thailand's 'underground shooting range' to collect the poor money, to be tortured to death by the monopoly, in their own country, there are also some 'buy life' projects, is the poor with their lives, to gamble with the tycoons.
The waiter looked at the person in front of him, and he immediately recognized that the other party was really a poor man, and after a little contemplation, he made a look.
"Follow me. ”
The two took an elevator that was not open to the public and went to the basement floor minus.
Unlike the above, as soon as you enter, you can hear loud noises, heart-rending screams, and smug laughter, and even... Gunshot!
"Hahaha, another dead, it seems that he is unlucky and can't take this million. ”
"Look at that person, he's still holding up, can't you just take the money and leave quickly?"
"I don't understand what these poor people think, anyway, one is willing to fight, the other is willing to suffer, let them go. ”
……
Li Gengxin came to the front desk with the waiter, and the attitude of the person who received him was completely different from the above, a man with a big belly, shirtless, and a tiger tattoo on his chest, holding a cigarette, disdainfully handed over a contract, and said: "Sign the life and death certificate first, and then decide which one to play." ”
Li Gengxin signed a name haphazardly and handed in the fake ID card.
After the big-bellied man at the front desk saw it, he said to a waiter with dyed yellow hair next to him, "Take him to familiarize himself with the next project." ”
Huang Mao nodded: "No problem." ”
At first, the waiter smiled at Li Gengxin: "Sir, I wish you can be worth more than one million when you go out." ”
Li Gengxin replied with a smile: "Thank you." ”
Huang Mao first led Li Gengxin to a five-meter-long corridor, at the end of which there was a large wooden disc with a frightened man tied to it.
On both sides, there were some graceful and luxurious people, who seemed to be admiring and participating in gambling.
"This gamble is called the Death Throwing Knife, the participants are tied to the roulette, you can choose the audience to throw the knife to themselves, at least six people, there is no upper limit. ”
"The first knife, 100,000, the second knife, 200,000, and so on, and the sixth knife if he is not dead, he has already received 2.1 million, of course, the money is paid by the rich themselves. ”
At this time, he had two choices, first, to ask to stop, take the money and leave, second, to continue the challenge, the seventh knife prize was doubled, it was 1.4 million, and if he died, he couldn't take a dime away. ”
Huang Mao lit a cigarette and said, "If you are playing for the first time, I suggest this, after all, not every rich man practices flying knives at home, and most of them are not good at the head, and the probability of getting 2.1 million is fifty or sixty percent." ”
In the middle of the words, someone has already been elected to the stage.
This is a middle-aged man with a big belly, and at first glance he belongs to the type of pampered and does not exercise regularly.
The man pulled out a throwing knife and did a few warm-up exercises first.
"Mr. Zhang, you have to hit with one blow! Otherwise, you will lose 100,000 yuan first. ”
"In this case, is 100,000 yuan considered money for Mr. Zhang? The main thing is that he can't lose face. ”
"That's right, this poor man is still very picky, I seriously doubt that Mr. Zhang can throw the flying knife next to the big disc hahaha. ”
……
In the midst of everyone's discussions, Mr. Zhang suddenly exerted his strength and threw the flying knife out.
Sou.
The sound of blades slicing through the air, followed by...
Sure enough, as everyone guessed, the throwing knife didn't touch the big disc at all, and it fell to the ground.
There was a burst of crazy laughter around him, and Mr. Zhang may have felt that he couldn't hold his face, so he had to come again, but he was carried down by the staff.
"See, this novice has a high survival rate, and the same person can't throw knives twice, otherwise he won't make the people on the big disc crazy. ”
Huang Mao explained as he smoked.
This kind of gambling mortality rate is indeed not high, if you want to kill with a flying knife, unless you hit the vital point, but this is difficult to say, after all, what the monopoly do in their spare time, no one knows, if you are unlucky, you will die quickly.
Huang Mao told Li Gengxin some things again, such as this 'fatal flying knife' is actually a coax by the tycoons, hundreds of thousands of dollars are not worth mentioning to them, just to be happy.
Li Gengxin's eyes narrowed, and his fists clenched slightly.
Hundreds of thousands, you can brutally hurt a person at will, or even kill a life.
Have a good picture?
If there is no money, will it be for the pleasure of these people?
What do they think of human life?
"Ahh
A flying knife was inserted into the man's collarbone on the large disc, and Li Gengxin found that he already had three flying knives on his body, and his face was pale and unusually haggard.
"Not dead!"
"The challenger wins! The prize money, 2.1 million, will it continue?"
After six swords, the person was still alive, and the staff walked up to him and asked, what Li Gengxin didn't expect was that the person actually nodded!
Why didn't he go?
Obviously, there are more than two million, and looking at his appearance, the injury is not serious, why do you have to take risks?
Huang Mao threw the cigarette on the ground and stepped on it, sighed and said: "It's a pity for this person, it is estimated that it will be difficult for him to get out alive, the rich always feel that the poor are too greedy, but they don't know that the poor also have a lot of helplessness." ”
Huang Mao pointed to the person on the big disc and said: "Let's take this person, his wife has a difficult disease to treat, which requires more than three million handling fees, and it is the first time for him to play with life, so he chose to kill the knife, two million and one hundred thousand, there is still one knife missing, as long as he carries this knife, his wife's operation fee is enough, but I am afraid..."
Sou!
Before Huang Mao finished speaking, a flying knife stabbed directly into the man's throat, his pupils dilated, and then, his eyes were full of unwillingness, and then, all of them retreated, and slowly closed.
In the first section of the stage, a very old man wearing reading glasses raised his hands and said with a smile: "Promise, promise, the old man just happened to study the flying knife in his free time." ”
"I'm afraid of the last knife, he's not lucky, hey. ”
Huang Mao's eyes were slightly red, and it could be seen that he was sympathetic to the person who was killed.
Li Gengxin was very curious and asked him: "How can the feeling you give me be incompatible with the indifferent atmosphere around here?"
Huang Mao pulled Li Gengxin towards the next project, and at the same time, he whispered: "My brother died here just to make up for my surgery." ”
"I work here just so that I don't forget my brother, these rich people, relying on their own money, playing with the lives of the poor, treating us like ants, not caring about life or death, I don't understand. ”
Huang Mao turned his head and looked at Li Gengxin.
"All men are created equal, but is there really equality?"
Li Gengxin saw the pain and sadness in the other party's eyes.
Li Gengxin was silent for a moment, and looked at the other party's eyes firmly: "I tell you, everyone is equal, and those who are indifferent will eventually pay the price." ”
Huang Mao smiled bitterly: "It's a bit much, I'll introduce it to you, see that you may also be forced to come, I also want to try my best to help you." ”
Next, Huang Mao took Li Gengxin to visit several projects, such as 'Water Zha Egg', 'Dragon Gate Straight In', 'Speed of Life and Death' and so on.
However, in the end, Li Gengxin stopped at a table called 'Death's Choice'.
Of all the bets, this is the only one that has the fastest and most violent wins.
The rules are simple, on the table, there is a *, with a total of seven bullet capacities, and the challenger can choose to reload the bullets, starting with three.
After that, the staff quickly turned the wheels, suddenly merged them into the gun, and then handed them to the challenger, who tossed the wheels a few times by himself, in fact, it was a formality to prove that his life was in his own hands.
After doing this, the challenger puts the gun on the temple, pulls the trigger once, three bullets are worth one hundred and eighty thousand (three times), and if he does not die once, he can take the money.
If you continue to pull the trigger, you can directly load more than three, the fourth one will add one million to six hundred thousand (four times), and the fifth one will be two million and half a million (five times), so far, a total of five million and nine million!
However, loading five bullets means that the probability of surviving is only one in two, and even if there are only three or four rounds, the probability of surviving is very low.
After all, the flying knife killing rich man is not skilled and cannot be killed, and this, as long as the luck is bad, there is no negotiable killing with one hit!
Li Gengxin was very satisfied with this gamble, he walked over with a smile, and Huang Mao persuaded him: "You think about it, this..."
Li Gengxin smiled and said, "Don't worry, I have my own plans." ”
"You ask me how much I need? I need a lot, so..."
Li Gengxin walked to the table, grabbed the *, and said, "I want to play with a little more exciting, six bullets." ”
Li Gengxin stretched out a gesture of six: "I just need a chance to live, so I want 10 million, you rich people, do you dare to play?"
In an instant, the audience fell into absolute silence.
However, just 0.01 seconds later, there was a burst of applause and shouts!
"Oh my God, six bullets! Is he crazy? Unless he's lucky, he'll go straight to his head!"
"That's right, don't say six, even five, no one dares to play, at most here is to play three and earn 1.8 million people. ”
"Crazy, this thing is definitely crazy, but I like it, I like to see my head bloom up close! ”
Hearing the news that someone here was going to stuff six bullets into * and only give himself a chance, more and more rich people gathered over.
In their eyes, this is a complete madman, and what they don't know is that Li Gengxin has already sprung up a ruthless plan in his heart, and this indifferent and hateful face will inevitably become terrified after a while.
"Wait, it won't be too long. ”
"I'm going to make you indifferent brutes..."
"Feel the fear!"
Li Gengxin muttered silently to himself in his heart.
