"You're playing for me?" Wan Wusheng hesitated.

"Yes." I said, "I'll take part in the tournament for you, and the win will be yours." ”

"And what if you lose?" Wan Wusheng asked.

"If I lose, they're going to take me to the dungeon - but who am I? Unafraid. I laughed.

"That's right." Wan Wusheng also smiled.

It's really easy to deceive...... However, what do I want to do in this "Peerless Martial Arts" gambling competition?

To put it simply, I had a feeling that I could get a clue to the Eagleclaw Gate case by participating in this gambling tournament (yes, I remember solving the case, and I didn't lose it just because I was having fun walking around the dungeon).

Of course, I feel that I can't say two things.

As for the underlying reason, just two words: curiosity.

What I'm curious about is not this novel gambling game, but the master of the game itself.

He\she\it\him...... Who exactly is it?

In this gambling game, there should be some hidden secrets, right?

Well, the crux of the matter is...... Win.

The loser has no benefits,

In order to win, first of all, we have to study these betting cards......

Half an hour later, in the center of the street.

It's full of people with gambling cards.

Boom!

The fireworks were brilliant, and I appeared wearing a papier-mâché mask, followed by Wan Wusheng in the same clothes and the same mask.

Although the height, body type, and clothes were the same, I walked in front with my head held high, and Wan Wusheng, who followed behind, was hunched over.

This is our plan to change the day - usually I stand in front and play Wan Wusheng, if necessary, as long as I change the position while people are not paying attention, and then change the position, and suddenly the two identities are reversed.

"Who are you?" A passer-by asked curiously.

"Under the paper." I said, shaking the paper fan.

"Pretending to be a ghost." The other snorted coldly, "Are you also here to participate in the gambling tournament?" ”

"Exactly." I crepe up.

"Alright, let's get in the ring!" The man pulled out a black cloth and threw it on the ground.

By doing so, he has challenged me.

"Accept!" I took one look at the man and immediately judged that he was a novice as well (don't ask me how I could tell).

As I said 'accept', I took out a black cloth and threw it on the ground.

Pedestrians all around avoided it.

I saw that the red and blue cloths quickly became longer and wider, and each occupied a piece of ground.

On the surface of the cloth, bright lines are intertwined horizontally and vertically.

This is the battle between me and the enemy!

The shape of the ring on both sides is exactly the same, but the position is just opposite, with a total of 14 rectangular grids on the front five, the back five, the left two, and the right two.

At this time, a masked man with a black cloth jumped out of nowhere, standing between two rings, holding a brass toad in his hand.

"The ring has been established, please bet on both sides to show their fate money." The black-clothed masked man said loudly.

The so-called fate money, in fact, is a special copper coin (anti-counterfeiting), each contestant has three, lose a gambling match, you have to give the opponent one, all three lost, will face the terrible punishment of changing dungeons.

So, what if you don't bet on the game when you only have one left?

The contract stipulates that when the game is over, when the contestant has three or less destiny coins in his hand, he will be deemed to have lost all.

In other words, you need to win at least one game to be invincible.

My opponent and I both showed our destiny money and put it on the side of the ring.

"The peerless martial arts ring referee 007 hereby announces that the gambling game has officially begun!" The black-clothed masked man shouted, "Roll a die on both sides to determine the order of action." ”

In addition to the initial card, black cloth, and destiny money, the participants get ten dice, ten jade of life, and ten seeds of understanding.

The usefulness of these items will be explained later.

And speaking of this dice roll, there is something ingenious - in order to prevent a thousand, we need to throw the dice into the mouth of the toad in the hands of the black cloth masked man (there are ten dice each).

It's not just a walk over and a throw, just a drop in the air.

I glanced at the brass toad - although it was not small and its mouth was wide open, it should be quite difficult to throw a die into the toad's mouth at a distance of nearly a kilometer, right?

While hesitating, the opponent has already thrown the dice.

Sure enough, he missed.

But when he saw a flash of red light in the mouth of the brass toad, he rolled the dice into his mouth.

I could see clearly that the red light was actually a very thin red line.

Is this the role of some kind of mechanism, or is it controlled by the black-clothed masked referee?

In any case, the magic of this brass toad is no less than the two black cloths that set up the ring.

Back to business.

After the dice fell into the mouth of the toad, it dribbled around a few times, and when it snorted, it was spit out again, and it fell in front of the opponent and spun non-stop.

This scene reminds me of the brutal moonshine game played in the Great Desert.

The dice stopped, and it was a 'six' facing up.

The opponent laughed.

What are you laughing at, it's just the right to act first, I don't care.

I casually threw a 'three'.

"Six to three, please start the first round." The black-clothed masked referee said.

The opponent smiled and showed off his stack of peerless cards.

There is also a set number of cards in this stack, which must be more than forty and less than eighty.

I glanced at the thickness of my opponent's cards, which should be more than forty.

And my own cards, just forty.

"Draw five cards each." The black-clothed masked referee said.

The opponent drew five cards from the card pile, and I drew five cards as well.

Take a side look - actually drew this combination?

Before I could think about it, my opponent shouted.

"I, Long, hate you as a guy who pretends to be a ghost the most in my life!" The man said angrily, "Today, I'll let you see what one is!" Fail! Smear! Earth! ”

He took out ten life jades (actually ten mung beans), placed them in a corner of the ring, and then began to throw cards into his ring.

The main ring is divided into two columns, each with five spaces.

The opponent throws the card exactly one of the first five spaces.

"I put a set of moves 'Luohan Long Fist' in an offensive position." Opponents.

Luohan long fist, the last skill of the rivers and lakes, one-handed moves, power level 1, attack level 2, parry level 1.

The card is rectangular, and the opponent points the narrow end of the card at me for the 'offensive stance'.

"Then, I placed a set of 'lotus stick method' in a parry pose." The opponent said again.

Lotus stick method, Jianghu end technique, one-handed moves, power level 1, attack level 1, parry level 2.

"Now, I'm going to attack!" The opponent roared angrily......

That's right...... If readers know what "Yu-Gi-Oh" is, it is the prototype of our card gambling game, of course, in addition to some basic structure, no matter the card content, detailed rules, and game style, there are great differences.

As for the specifics...... Let's read on......
