The gambling hall was filled with the smell of men's sweat and passion.

Some people laughed and carried gold coins into their arms, and some people touched their empty pockets in chagrin.

At a gambling table, Zhu Tian sat in the middle of Xiao Huangmao and Catfish. The gold coins were constantly being swayed outward, and after a while, more gold coins were withdrawn from the opposite side.

Xiao Huangmao is an emaciated mercenary who is over thirty years old, Zhu Tian looked at him seriously rubbing cards, smiled and nodded:

"Can you know what a card is just by rubbing it with your hands?"

"Sir, this is not difficult, a true gambler will never look at his own cards, the god of luck will be attached to a gambler who plays cards with his heart, now my heart has felt that I am holding a 'king' and a 'queen', the biggest card in the whole table! ”

These words are meant to scare everyone present...... Xiao Huangmao silently added in his heart.

Perhaps the expression of the little yellow fur was too contrived, or maybe the other gamblers around the table believed the little yellow fur's whisper, and no one continued to raise, so that all the coins on the table belonged to the little yellow hair. I saw Xiao Huangmao pat his chest and breathed a long sigh of relief:

"Thank you, you guys are such gentlemen, I was so frightened. ”

"Why, aren't you taking the 'king' and 'queen'?" one gambler questioned: "Seeing everyone's dead faces, it means that they don't have a king and queen in their hands, so you don't have to put it on anymore, put away the gold coins, and start the next game again." ”

"Where is the 'king' and 'queen' so easy to get? well, although I've gotten it a few times before. When Xiao Huangmao said this, he suddenly showed his hole cards and jokingly said: "I only take the smallest 'manservant' and 'maid', and any card in your hand is bigger than mine!"

The eyes of the gamblers at the table widened as if they had suddenly realized that they had eaten rat poison.

Little Yellow Mao laughed and said, "Actually, we are not playing bigger than the card, but bigger than the guts!"

The game they play is called the King Card, and there are a hundred cards in the whole deck, with the "King" and "Queen" naturally being the biggest cards, followed by the Duke, Marquis, Count, Viscount, Baron, Knight, Guard, Infantry, Merchant, 、...... Prophets, priests, hunters, witches, butlers, valets, and maids have fifty identities. With the exception of the King and Queen, each identity has the same two.

Then, it is necessary to remember the ranking nouns of these fifty identities, for example, the combination of "king" and "queen" is considered "king fried", which can eat the whole audience, but the probability is extremely low.

For example, the combination of "kingdom" and "knight" is greater than all the combination of identity cards and "knight".

For example, the combination of "Knight" and "Guard" will suppress the noble identity tag, and the combination of "Hunter" and "Witch" will suppress the civilian identity tag......

It sounds complicated, but once you figure out the connections between identity tags, the game becomes very simple.

Players need to draw two of the many wooden cards at once, of course, this process requires blind drawing, during which the wooden cards are stacked in ten rows, upside down, and no one knows in advance what identity card they are holding.

This game requires a minimum of two players to start the game, and can accommodate up to 50 players competing on the same stage.

To enter the game, you need to set a maximum amount of money, and then bet one silver or one gold coin, and raise one silver or one gold coin per round. When the maximum amount is reached, all players must reveal their hole cards, and then the winner is determined according to the size of the card combination. Players can drop out halfway through, and naturally, the bets placed by the player who gave up will go to the player who made it to the end.

At this time, there were sixteen players sitting at the table, they looked at the ID card in their hands in frustration, and they couldn't help but look at the ID card that Xiao Huang Mao showed out, and they couldn't help but regret it.

If they continue to bet, the entire table will be theirs. Because any identity card combination is stronger than the two identities of "man" and maid.

"I learned this trick from the stupid earl," Xiao Huangmao whispered to Zhu Tian to introduce his card experience, "He never looks at the identity card when he plays the king card. Instead, bet directly and bet until the other party doubts themselves and up to the upper limit of the amount. The stupid earl also said that using a certain amount of money to experience a gambling horror, and then make everyone tremble, is the essence of gambling, the joy of gambling, and the supreme law of the gambling table!" But soon, as if he had thought of something, a gloomy look appeared on his face again. "It's a pity, if the foolish Earl and Little Bird were here, the three of us would have won more. ”

In that battle, Little Yellow Fur was picked off Odin's war horse at the beginning. He was stabbed in the lower abdomen and fainted in pain, as for which mercenary saved him, he still doesn't know, and the surviving mercenaries have forgotten the details at that time. Maybe the stupid count or the little bird saved him, he thought.

Zhu Tian also participated in this king card game, at this time, he was holding a pair of wooden cards in his hand, but his eyes were confused, and it was obvious that he had fallen into deep thought.

He kept repeating two words in his mind - pastor.

Priest...... This profession that has mastered spiritual power is equivalent to having a pair of clairvoyant eyes...... If the pastor were to go to the table, wouldn't he be able to play all the cards?

Presumably, priests who can awaken their spiritual power disdain to use their spiritual power to win money in the casino, and Zhu Tian estimates that the church also has regulations, otherwise if an unscrupulous priest walks into the casino, it is equivalent to coming here to withdraw money.

After thinking of the priest, Zhu Tian thought of Amanda's warning again, and asked the catfish beside him in a deep voice: "How much do you know about the bishop of the church?" The king card has already been carried out to the next game. In the last game, Xiao Huang Mao won a full 200 gold coins.

At this time, the catfish had just drawn two cards and had a disappointed look on his face. "Your Excellency?" he muttered, and said slowly, "Only those who have been a priest in the church for more than twenty years are eligible to wear the red robe and be promoted to the rank of cardinal. ”

"Is there anything else special about the cardinal?"

Of course, it is well known that priests belong to the clergy, and it is said that a large number of priests can directly converse with the god of light and gain the power of prophecy. The cardinals were naturally the best of the priests, and they had a devout belief in the god of light, so almost everyone knew that the bishop must have great powers. Of course, what most people don't know is that there is a term called 'divine art'. It is said that only those who have mastered the power of divine art will be elected as a cardinal. As for what the magic looks like, I haven't seen it yet, but as you can imagine, it must be extremely powerful. ”

Each round of the King's Card went very fast, and by this time half of the people had already forfeit. "Divine art?" Zhu Tian asked, "What is the relationship between divine art and prophecy?"

"This ......" Catfish looked at the cards in his hand, and finally abstained, and he began to explain to Zhu Tian seriously: "Prophecy is very easy to understand, generally speaking, senior priests have the ability of prophecy, they can see what will happen in the next few days, or even the next few years, and take precautions. Some believers will come to them and ask for prophecy of good fortune and evil to help them ward off calamity. And divine arts, in fact, I don't know much about this aspect. Prophecy is said to be a type of divine art, except that prophecy is a skill similar to a support nature. And in the divine arts, there are many other offensive skills. ”

Speaking of this, Zhu Tian suddenly thought of Timberwolf Orr. Orr broke into the circus to save his companions and slaughtered him, but was later overpowered by the Reverend Theon.

Zhu Tian still remembered the white holy light that fell from the sky, and Orr, who was shrouded in the holy light, had nowhere to hide and could not escape. Later, it was Priest Theon who took the initiative to withdraw the Light, and Orr was able to survive.

"Win again!" suddenly exclaimed the catfish. "Little Yellow Hair, today you are the only one who wins money by relying on your own poker skills!"

At this time, the mercenaries at the other tables also came over. At the beginning, Zhu Tian relied on his mental power to help them win a few games. After the primitive accumulation of capital, they were left to play on their own.

As Little Yellow Mao said, the essence and fun of gambling is to experience the thrill of fear. As long as he has spiritual power, Zhu Tian can collect his wealth at any time, and he is not afraid that these mercenaries will lose all his gold coins.

"Little Yellow Hair can do it!" Mr. Sissy looked at the gold coins on the gambling table in front of Little Yellow Hair, smacked his lips and said, "This is less than a thousand gold coins." Alas, I think that back then, we worked hard and died three or four brothers to earn a commission of a few hundred silver coins, but now it is really a matter of people!"

"Let's hand over all the gold coins to Xiao Huang Mao, look at Xiao Huang Mao's speed of accumulating money, what else do you do as mercenaries, and in the future, we will protect Xiao Huang Mao every day to win money in the casino, and now it seems that gambling is the king!"

"Garu, don't you look at who is sitting next to Little Yellow Hair, how can Mr. Blue Hat sitting next to him make Little Yellow Hair lose money? If I sit in Little Yellow Hair's position, I will definitely win more than him!"

At this point, there was no room left for gold and silver coins on the mercenaries, and almost all of the mercenaries came back with gold coins that were several times the principal.

Zhu Tian sat there motionless and thinking about things, he unconsciously picked up the gold coin in front of Xiao Huangmao, and then put it in his mouth and chewed it.

This scene was seen by almost all the mercenaries!

Suddenly, they were dumbfounded!

Frank patted Zhu Tian on the back, and Zhu Tian immediately reacted from his contemplation, he swallowed the chewed gold coin, and looked at Frank behind him, "What's wrong?" he asked suspiciously, "Why are you staring at each one with big eyes?"

"Master, you, you, how did you eat the gold coins. ”

Zhu Tian was stunned for a moment, only then did he realize that his subconscious move just now had been discovered by them.

Hiss...... It's hard to explain. "You're mistaken," he still forcibly explained, "that wasn't a gold coin just now, and I'm not a monster, how can I eat a gold coin?" he said as he grabbed another silver coin from the table, but then suddenly reacted, resisting the urge to put the gold coin in his mouth, and showed a self-righteous smile to the mercenaries, "How is it? ”

After Zhu Tian and his party left, the casino suddenly fell into a cold silence, and the previous enthusiasm of the gamblers all disappeared, and even their souls seemed to have walked out of the gambling hall with the mercenaries.

In fact, the mercenaries took not their souls, but their gold.

......

Hade Yowth finally sent these guys away who only won and couldn't lose, he wiped the sweat from his head, looked at the little duke who was sitting on the side and said, "Young master, shouldn't we move the gambling hall in Peace Town?" I feel like I've been cursed by a demon. I've been in bad luck lately. ”

"Go! we must go!" The little duke felt a faint pain in his chest, and the corners of his mouth twitched, "Leave the peace town, we have to leave the peace town as soon as possible, you go and prepare, the sooner the better!"

While the two were talking, a red-robed Odin guest walked into the casino.

His short blond hair stood straight and straight like a steel needle, just like his resolute and cold face, which made people dare not look at it directly. His costume was strange, and Hold Yowth had never seen anyone dressed like this.

This is a complete stranger, and not a native of the town of Peace.

Hade Yowth saw the red-robed man walk to a gaming table.

Isn't that the same table where the Blue Hat used to play King Cards?

At this time, there was no one at the gambling table, and I saw the red-robed man pick up two wooden cards at random, look at them seriously, and put them under his nose and sniffed them. Then, he frowned as if he had smelled.

The little duke had obviously noticed the strange middle-aged man, and he stopped Haven Yaoth from stepping forward to inquire, and silently shook his head at Haven Yaoss.

Soon, the red-robed man left the gambling house.

He didn't speak to anyone the whole time, as if everyone was air.

The little duke was also puzzled.

He hesitated as he watched the red-robed man walk out, and slowly came to the table where the King's Card was played. On the table, a large number of wooden cards were neatly arranged, and two of them were obviously isolated as if they had been moved.

These are the two cards that the red-robed man picked up just now?

The little duke couldn't help but turn over the two cards curiously, and suddenly, there was an unbelievable light in his eyes.

I saw that two figures wearing crowns were depicted on it.

Kings and Queens!

So, how could he pick up two cards and pick the king and queen of China!
