The Ming Empire had many large and small gambling houses, and the laws of the Ming Empire only limited the "amount" of gambling, and gambling was legal here. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 However, this does not stop gamblers from going bankrupt in the casinos, and in the spirit of providing "jobs", the constitution of the Ming Empire requires that every casino must have a formal application and documents, and be equipped with at least two arresters. Although gambling houses were legal in the Ming Empire, they were actually only entertainment facilities for certain "special beings".

"Four, five, six, straight, I won. ”

The most conspicuous thing in the casino is sitting cross-legged on the ground, holding a dice Gu and smiling. The beastly ears of the victor and the girl with the long tail shook her long white hair and showed a charming smile. It was with this seemingly harmless face that she lured many people into the trap, ordinary people and a monster gambled and lost their fortunes and lived on the streets, maybe it was the stupidest way to die in the Ming Empire.

"Damn, you monster! I won't admit you won!"

It's a pity that one of the best places in the Ming Empire is this gambling house. The yelling man was quickly arrested and dragged out, and the girl yawned, counted the chips in her hand, and then laughed contentedly.

"Looks like you're the rumored youkai. ”

She only looked up when she heard someone talk to her. In front of her was a girl in a strange long dress, she had a strange black and white hair color, a handful of red hair on her forehead like a highlight, and a long dress with huge red and black arrows sewn on it.

"What are you doing?" the girl calmed down.

"Of course I've got something to do with you, you know where the hammer is, right?" she sat down, looking at the girl, "of course, it's up to you to decide if you want to tell me, okay?"

"Oh, interesting," the girl narrowed her eyes, "so be it, I can tell you if I win or lose, but if I win, you have to do me a favor." ”

"No problem. She readily agreed.

"Little girl Su Xiang, haven't asked your name yet?"

The girl threw the dice Gu into the air, and when it fell, she easily caught the ceramic dice Gu with her index finger. Inky black dice Gu flew on her fingertips, as if there was no weight.

"Rain sees the sword. She leaned slightly and said.

Only then did the youkai notice that there was a petite guy behind the Amami Sword sitting across from her. A little girl with short blue hair who looked timid, she clutched Yujian's clothes tightly and didn't dare to look at Su Xiang. Considering the figure of ordinary people, she is too small, even smaller than ordinary people's bones, she frowned slightly, and then deducted the dice Gu. She was about to say something, but another voice came into their ears as she pulled down the dice Gu.

"How about adding me to such an interesting thing?"

I don't know when the people standing next to the two of them, when Su Xiang noticed her existence, a bad chill swept through her body, it was like being overwhelmed by a natural enemy. Su Xiang's hand couldn't help but tremble, and then he looked at the person who spoke.

It was a person who looked about the same age as them, but Su Xiang immediately felt that her body temperature was much lower than the average person. She had beautiful blonde hair and blue eyes, and was dressed in an overcoat with a pipe in her mouth, and what seemed to be something hanging from her belt, but she couldn't see it clearly when the coat blocked her. It must be a weapon, Su Xiang didn't speak, she glanced at the rain sword.

"You look so raw, foreigner. Yu saw the sword skimming his face and sneered.

"The world is full of chance encounters, and I happen to be very interested in this kind of thing, and I want to ask you a question too," the blonde girl also sat down, "So, can I use the same 'chips' as this "Rain Sword"?"

"Interesting, I promised. Yujian sneered.

"I'm Dio Connor, an Englishman, as you can see," Dior puffed out a puff of smoke, "Come on, what are you waiting for?"

"So, two," Su Xiang spread out his palms, "please 'bet on the soul'." ”

Dior raised an eyebrow, she sensed something. When Su Xiang spoke, a wonderful sense of disobedience as when she first met the second generation "DIO" occupied her mind. However, she didn't say anything, but raised her right hand, palm facing forward, and Yumi Jian on the side did the same.

"Bet my soul. ”

"Bet on the soul. ”

"Very good, let's announce the rules of gambling next," Su Xiang closed his eyes, "I've been playing dice for a day, and if I continue, the plane is too boring, why don't we play something else?"

She took out a deck of cards from her long sleeves, and the back of that deck was printed with a mysterious pattern, which was too long compared to the playing cards, and it looked very thin, there should be only about twenty cards.

"This Dior should be familiar with this thing, this thing is called "Tarot Card"," Su Yuan held up the deck of cards in his hand, "This deck of cards is composed of a total of 22 cards from the number 0 "Fool" to the number 21 "World"..."

"Is it the Waite Tarot or something else?" asked Dio suddenly.

"It's Waite Tarot cards, but this has no effect," Su Xiang nodded, "The rules of the game are very simple, that is, 'Tarot 21 points'." ”

"These tarot cards have a number of "0-21", use these numbers as numbers, and then everyone is dealt cards for cards, and if there are three people, there are exactly 15 cards, so the cards are reshuffled at the end of each time. Of course, if that's all it takes, it's no different from the normal 21 points. Each tarot card will have a different "special feature", such as the number 0 "Fool", which you can treat as 'any point' when you have this card in your hand. Cards numbered more than 10 will be counted as 'Number-10' at settlement time, except for 'Numbered 10'. I'll explain what each card is for now, and if you can't remember it, you can ask me again. ”

Saying this, Su Xiang took out the cards one by one.

"Number 1 "Magician", this card can be swapped with any card in the library, and the swapped card can be revealed. From No. 2 "Priestess" to No. 5 "Pope", all four cards have the option to add 10 to their numbers when they resolve. Number 6 "Lovers", this card can be calculated by adding any number of points from 1 to 6 on its own count. No. 7 "Chariot", this card can be fed into the opponent's card at the time of settlement. Number 8 "Power" allows you to double or halve the value of any card in your hand at settlement, rounding up to the nearest whole number. Number 9 "Hermit", this card can not count as points. Number 10 "Wheel of Fortune", this card can be reshuffled into the remaining cards at the time of settlement, and then the same number of cards can be drawn to resolve. Number 11, "Justice," is a one-time card that invalidates one of the players' special effects. Number 12 "Hanging Man", this card can be exchanged with one player's card at the time of settlement. Number 13, "Grim Reaper," is a card that discards a player's hand at resolution, and the winning card and the card are no longer shuffled into the library. ”

"Number 14 "Temperance", the player with this card, no matter how big the value, will not blow. Number 15, "Demon," the player with this card discards two of his other cards and then resolves one of the remaining cards. Number 16 "Tower", if there is only this card, then this card can be counted directly as "21" points. Number 17 "Star", number 18 "Moon", number 19 "Sun", these three cards are treated as one card and can be used as any of the "7, 8, 9" at the time of settlement. Number 20 "Judgment", this card can be revealed at any time, and after it is revealed, everyone must reveal their cards. Number 21 "World," this card... You can discard any number of cards, including this one. ”

It's really complicated, Dio pursed his mouth, glanced at Yujian on the side, but saw that she was also looking at herself, the two glanced at each other, and then turned their heads to look at the 22 cards that Su Xiang was arranging.

"Do you remember clearly?"

"That is to say... Is the only thing that has to do with 21 points to do with points?" Dior chuckled.

It seems to be related to 21 points, but the key to victory or defeat is how to make good use of the "special effects" of your own cards. No matter how bad the card is, if the special effect of the card is good, it can be brought back to life.

"So, for the sake of fairness, I'll be the dealer, so let's get familiar with the game first. ”

Su Xiang put away the cards, and after washing them, he gave two to Dio and Yujian swords, and finally put two in front of him. Then she turned over her hole card, which was a "Pope". It's not a good hand, and it doesn't work well as a 15 when it settles. Dio picked up his hole cards and glanced at them, one was the number 7 "chariot", and the other was the number 12 "hanging man".

"By the way, any player can use the special effects of the cards at any time during the settlement period, but if no one uses the effect of the cards starting with the person on the right hand of the dealer and ending with the dealer, then the cards will be settled. ”

Su Xiang added.

"So..."Amami Jian glanced at his cards, "I don't want cards." ”

"Oh?" Su Xiang raised his eyebrows.
