Chapter 54: The Cat and the 7 of Spades (Part 10)
"Humans are self-domesticated creatures, while cats are not, cats have never been domesticated. Many things that humans can't perceive are quite interesting in the eyes of cats. For example, this 'shadow' attached to you!"
Sir Shakolos pointed to the small bronze mirror on the chest of good and evil with his cat's paw, and said:
"This white, vague phantom, though thin, is also like a false shadow, the shadow of 'God'. I don't think it would have been attached to a demonic ghost for no reason, unless she had some divine artifact with her, such as a mirror. β
"Cranes, turtles, and the sun, auspiciousness and majesty coexist. The patterns on the surface are too rich to clearly reflect the face of a mortal, and of course, its duty is not to shine on people. This thing is more like a ritual vessel than a mirror. I'm not a professional connoisseur of treasures, but in my humble opinion, this thing is probably thousands of years old. β
"So what?" the ghost man hugged his arms and said confidently, "This mirror is a treasure, so what? What evidence do you have to prove that I used it to cheat? With so many people present, as long as you can convince one person, then I will lose the good and evil of the ghost man!"
"No, no, no," the white cat waved his hand, "you've said it." β
"I just think you have a talisman that can really bring you good luck, and that's it. I don't need to prove it, because I didn't intend for you to be punished for it. It's better to say ......"
"If you have driven me to this point by your own ability, then I will definitely not be able to defeat you. However, it was because you were borrowing the 'Hand of God' to draw cards that I had a chance to win. β
"What do you mean by that?" asked the good and evil with a straight face.
"You'll understand then. The white cat smiled lightly and said, "I'll make a preview first, and then, you're 'impossible', and then win a chip from my hand, not a single one!"
"Hehe......"
Good and evil sneered, and once again reached for the deck.
"I don't think that's ...... One...... Fixed ......"
When she saw the two cards she had drawn, her expression froze with her words.
The 10 of diamonds and the 10 of clubs, the sum of which is 20 points, is quite an excellent big hand. Replaced by others, the person who draws such a good card should smile slightly, and the joy is hard to hide, but the face of good and evil is like earth.
"Why not Blackjack!" she thought, "impossible! The luck of these eight mirrors should be unstoppable, as long as I want to draw it......, I will definitely draw it!" It betrayed me?"
"No...... You can't think like that, it's too pessimistic to think like this! How can a mere artifact disobey the will of its owner!"
As soon as the good and evil thought about it, he raised his head and looked at the big white cat that was wagging its tail leisurely, with a fierce look in his eyes.
"You guy," she whispered, "what did you do?"
"Me?" the white cat pointed at herself, looking innocent, "what else can I do?"
"Cut!"
Good and evil gritted their teeth, threw the diamond 10 on the table, as a card, and then hugged her arms again, and ended her round without saying a word.
On Sir Shakoros's side, as soon as he drew a card, Orange, who was sitting behind him, raised her two tails and covered her mouth and exclaimed. The white cat immediately turned around and "shhh When he turned around, good and evil saw the absolute confidence floating on his face, as if the victory was in hand.
"Suspended. β
As he spoke, he directly deducted the two cards in his hand to the table.
"What a bastardβ" Good and Evil roared inwardly, "21, definitely 21, the performance of these two people...... This is almost the time to report the points by yourself! The old lady just didn't draw Black Jack in one round, so she dared to kick her nose in the face, and she also suspended the card, I told you to stop the card!"
"I'm going to win!" she swore in her heart, "I'm going to win, I'm going to win, I'm going to win, I'm going to win! I'm going to win! I'm going to win the next one of spades! After this round, 'fortune' will definitely come back to me, I'm going to shoot these two arrogant stinky cats, smear their brains on the wall, I'm going to kill them!"
She didn't know how hideous her face was at this time. Even if it is the weakest celestial demon, after all, it is also a monster that feeds on fear, and many onlookers have been frightened by her bloodthirsty murderous maniac-like expression, and their faces are blue and their legs and feet are weak. Of course, in Sir Chakolos's eyes, her appearance was just "quite interesting".
"My turn, draw cards!"
Good and evil roared loudly, and without thinking, he took one card out of the pile. She glanced at the cards she had drawn, and then fell silent.
She slammed the two cards in her hand onto the table, remained dumbfounded, and hung her head without saying a word. Every inch of her skin, from her fingertips to her cheeks, seemed to lose its color in an instant, turning into a rough white paper.
"For ...... Why...... How can this be......"
Her voice, like her body, trembled slightly.
"Why is this happening...... It shouldn't be...... This...... I...... How is this possible......"
The third card of good and evil is the 10 of hearts, and with three 10s in a row, the total reaches 30 points, and the game is over.
"Look at you, you're blown up, right?" the white cat shook his head and said in a very regretful tone, "That's really a pity, after all, my cards are these three!"
With that, he turned over the two hidden cards that had been covered, revealing the mystery in front of the eyes of good and evil.
The two cards are the 9 of clubs, the 2 of spades, and the 5 of spades, which gives Sir Shakolos a total of 16 points in this round.
"Just now Orange saw that I had drawn this super small card, and he screamed for me, and I stopped him. He continued, "Come to think of it, isn't she just reminding my enemies that my hand is so small!"
When the ghost man heard this, he raised his head suddenly, his face turned from pale to red, and the green tendons on his neck bulged out like roots breaking through the ground. She lost her mind and roared like a dragon, her arms slamming into the table in pain, shaking the tables full of chips and cards.
"You're going to scheming against me!" she yelled at Sir Sciakros as she banged on the table, "I'm going to skin you!"
"Shhhh
Sir Charcolos jumped onto the table, and with a stretch of his long cat's tail, he swept away all the red chips before good and evil could react. Everything she had won in this casino all day was now owned by the white cat.
Unconvinced, unwilling, furious, and wanted to jump up and shoot everyone present...... But, in the end, good and evil can't do anything. She could only blush, watching everything she had plundered by others, and there was nothing she could do about it. It's like being in the jungle where the jungle eats the jungle, in the end, she's just a weak demon, and without this table, she's nothing, and whoever wants to bully her, can bully her.
She can't subvert the rules of Gensokyo, she can't even overturn this casino, she can only be angry with herself. The wrath of the puffer, snatching the land with his head.
"It's cruel, but, that's gambling. β
Sir Shakolos spoke, stumbling on the chips that belonged to the good and evil of the ghosts, just as the dragon in the dungeon flaunted its treasures. The ghost man looked at him, and his mood unexpectedly calmed down. She finally realizes that her failures are the result of impulsiveness, which makes her unable to see the reality in front of her, and can only scurry around like a headless fly. Only when she calms down will she find that the current situation is actually in her favor.
"I ...... Ahem......"
The good and evil cleared the throat that was a little hoarse, and said:
"I quit and stopped betting. β
"I am asking to redeem these 12 chips immediately. She picked up the 12 blue-green chips that she had won earlier, and said calmly, even, coldly, "Please give me six-sevenths of your life, or in other words, flesh and blood equivalent to six-sevenths of your weight, and not a little less." β
If she had read Shakespeare's The Merchant of Venice, she would have found her own image in it. In fact, the ghost who calmed down knew very well that the initiative was no longer in her hands. As long as the white cat is not like her, holding it up, all in, then he has almost unlimited resources to play with her. To put it simply, good and evil have begun to think that they can't win against this cat.
So she retreated to the next best thing and began to seek mutual destruction.
I don't want the money, I want you to stay.
"I knew you were going to say that. β
When Sir Shakolos had said this, he picked up a piece of red chips worth $10,000 with his cat's paws, and broke it in half in front of good and evil.
"You...... What are you doing?"
Good and evil speak very unfavorably, as if this is cutting her flesh, in fact, this is cutting her flesh. Sir Shakoros did not answer her question, but said lightly:
"It's 10,000 pieces. β
Then, he broke a second chip.
"It's 20,000 pieces. He said.
Then, every time he broke a chip, he reminded him of how much "good and evil money" had been ruined in his hands. Finally, when he said, "This is 100,000 yuan," good and evil could not hold it anymore, and pleaded with a wail:
"Stop, please......! What the hell do you want to do?"
Sir Shakoros saw the bloodshot in her eyes, and her eyes were more desperate than losing or dying. He smiled and replied:
"I'm dealing with 'legacy'!"
"Huh?"
"You want six-sevenths of my flesh and blood, that's fine, I'm willing to gamble and lose. But then Orange and I will both die, and the chips I just won will be ownerless. So I decided, before I died, to destroy them all. β
"You ......"
Good and evil have their mouths open, but they can't say a complete sentence. She wanted Sir Chakolos dead, right now, but she still wanted the moneyβit was all her money, her money!
"It's all my money, my winnings, isn't it?" said Sir Sciakros, "then, I can do to them what I want to do to them, or ......?"
"You want to win them back?"
"If you want to, I can give you this chance, ghosts are good and evil. With those 12 chips in your hand, bet all the red chips in my hand, and the only two blue and green chips left. A round is a winner, the winner wins everything, and the loser loses everything. How, bet or not?"
