Chapter 32: Human Superiority
Racial differences, Lin Ao had always ignored this point before. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info Because the words and deeds of the old fish of Ganbo are almost no different from humans, Lin Ao almost regarded him as a human at all, and he has long forgotten that he is a fish.
"Huh......" Lin Ao took a deep breath, and the chip that belonged to him on his head flew to Ganbo's head, "Ten years of life", and it was temporarily transferred to the control of Ganbo Old Fish. He now only has four blue chips left, while Gampo has five yellow chips and one blue chip, which is slightly better than him.
Gan Bo didn't seem to be ready to stop, and was ready to play slowly with Lin Ao to the end. His confident smile didn't change at all: "What's the matter, young man." It's your turn to choose a game, and I suggest you choose a chip as a price for, because you haven't found any way to beat me right now other than stalling for time. ”
"Are you enjoying it?" Lin Ao finally became calm at this moment. If it is said that the greatest fear of human beings is the unknown, then Lin Ao is now fearless, he has found the reason why the other party defeated him, and what he needs now is to find a way to crack the old fish of Gambo.
Indeed, if he is given a little more time, he will be able to brew the mood to defeat the old fish of Gambo. Now is not the time......
"Enjoy?" Ganbo Lao Yu was a little puzzled by Lin Ao's change at the moment. "What do you think I'm enjoying?"
"Enjoy the duel with me." Lin Ao replied. "Your words and deeds are so much like a human being, I think you must have lived in the human world for a short time. Did you enjoy your stay? ”
"Admittedly, it was a jolly time. Although the human world I know is not as peaceful and tranquil as the fish-man world, everyone has his own 'wisdom'. You can really see this on the gambling table, thousands of personalities, thousands of ways to deal with it. 'Three Thousand Worlds'! It's not an exaggeration to describe human gambling as such! ”
"That's right. That's why I said you're enjoying gambling with me. Back in the world of fishmen, not many fish should understand 'gambling', right? You, who have always maintained a complete victory, are you a little bored with those simple fish? What about some regrets? Without the surging mood at the beginning, without the feeling that life was hanging by a thread, hundreds of years passed plainly, and finally waited for a human being who understood gambling again. Are you excited, old man? ”
"Young man, what the hell do you want to say?" Ganbo Laoyu narrowed his little eyes, and suddenly felt that he hadn't seen through Lin Ao in front of him.
Lin Ao immediately sensed all this from the face of the old fish of Gambo, and he replied, "I mean, haven't you been an opponent of humans for a long time?" ”
"Huh?!" Gambo felt for a moment that he had been provoked. "So what?"
Very good...... Very good. Lin Ao got the most important answer.
"Then you haven't met a madman in a long time! Human beings, however, will gamble their all for the sake of less than 1% of the possibilities! Lin Ao waved his hand and raised four fingers, and the remaining four chips on his head all flew onto the table. In the final duel, I will gamble the last forty years of my life! ”
"What about the game?"
"The easiest 'card drawing'!" LIN AO SAID, HAVING ALREADY SELECTED THE POKER GAME FROM THE GAMECENTER INTERFACE. "I also choose playing cards, but this time is the easiest game, which is to draw a card from each side to compete for the size! The rules are as follows......"
"Draw" rules:
Rule 1: Each player can only draw one card per turn.
Rule 2: Each team has one "forfeit" opportunity in each round. If the opponent agrees to "forfeit", the game is restarted. If the opponent does not agree, the hand can only be forced.
Rule 3: Except for "abstaining", both parties cannot use any means to replace the cards drawn.
Rule 4: A game is decided with four chips as a bet. The lowest poker card is the "Two of Diamonds", which increases in order, and the highest is the "Ace of Spades". The player with a higher hand than the opponent wins.
"Young man, are you really crazy? Forty years of life directly bet on this kind of game? As far as I know, human beings only have a lifespan of 100 years. ”
"So what? As long as I win, I won't lose my life, and I'll still have access to powerful magic that I didn't have. ”
"But you still have the idea of victory?"
"Why not, it's just a matter of luck. If I'm luckier than you, it's enough to win you! ”
"Luck? Who knows? On the human gambling table, no one I know has ever said that there is no luck on the gambling table! Your naivety, leave it to me to defeat! ”
Gamble also had four chips flying to the central table. The deck of cards reappeared in front of the two of them. The game is starting again......
"This time, it's up to me to shuffle the cards, right?" Lin Ao quickly stretched out his hand, wanting to touch the deck of cards.
"No, young man, don't think that we old people are stupid." Ganbo Old Fish stopped Lin Ao for the first time, "Don't think I don't know your little tricks just now. Since it's a one-game game, this time, I won't let you remember the cards again. ”
"What a quick-witted old man. But ......" Lin Ao smiled and asked, "How to shuffle the cards now?" ”
"Don't lie to me. Wasn't this card disordered by God in the first place? The old man pressed his hand on top of the playing cards and swiped them to the side, and the cards immediately scattered in a row on the table. Draw the cards like that, as you say, it's all up to luck. ”
"Okay." Lin Ao nodded, and together with Ganbo, he drew a poker card from the deck at the same time.
Gambo Laoyu glanced at the card in his hand - "Diamond 7", a relatively small card, there is not much chance of victory. As a fish, he immediately agitated his gills and looked at Lin Ao: "How is it, young man, is the card good?" ”
"Where, where, it's almost to death." Lin Ao's excitement seemed to be irrepressible, and a smug smile almost overflowed his entire face. He took the cards in his hand and said to Gambo: "How can such a hand win you, I choose to 'abstain'." ”
No matter how good the cards are, this guy is too carried away, right? Gambo thought to himself, but didn't that give me a chance to give up this game? What a stupid guy.
Thinking of this, Ganbo also responded generously: "Then I will also 'abstain'!" Silly, young man! Mine is a '7 of diamonds', and you've given up a chance to win the game! ”
"You're the one who gives up your chance to win! Old man Gambo! Lin Ao turned over his card, and it was clearly a "Club 3", which was almost the smallest card!
How can it be! This young man was obviously proud, how could he only hold such a card! There is nothing wrong with my abilities, and there is no way he has the magic to change my instincts as a fish!
This time, it was not Lin Ao who roared, but the old man Gambo. The ability he relied on to win was actually wrong at this moment, no matter how he thought about it, he would not have made such a low-level mistake himself.
Again...... Try again, and you might find out the truth!
Inadvertently, the positions of him and Lin Ao have been reversed. "Let's start, second inning."
"Okay." Lin Ao's expression returned to calm, and he reached out to touch the next playing card. The moment he saw the cards, an aura of "despair" wafted from his body into the air.
At the same time, Gampo also drew another card, the "Jack of Spades". Although it is not a sure win, only the three cards "Q", "K", and "A" can beat him.
"How about it, young man, do you still have to fold this time......" The old man Ganbo looked at Lin Ao who was in despair, and naturally felt a burst of ecstasy in his heart: This time, even if you want to abstain, I will not let you go.
But...... Lin Ao gritted his teeth, twisted and pinched, and a drop of sweat on his forehead ran hot across his cheeks. Lin Ao seemed to be struggling with something in his heart. After a few seconds, he squeezed a few words out of his mouth: "No, if I want to abstain, you won't allow it, right?" Flop Bar...... Forty years of my life is yours. ”
"Good! Then flop! ”
Gambo Lao Yu turned out his "Ace of Spades", but Lin Ao turned over the ...... "Ace of Hearts"!
Won, Lin Ao won! One blue chip plus three yellow chips were snatched from the top of the old man Gambo to his hand by Lin Ao!
For a moment, just for a moment. Lin Ao put away his desperate expression and showed a completely victorious smile: "Whew...... I'm tired, it's over. Whether it's this game or this duel, old man! You'll never have a chance to win against me again! ”
"You! You! What the hell did you do! Why is my ability invalid! The old fish on the other side asked Lin Ao almost hysterically. Now he is not angry, but fearful. He was afraid that his instinct to belong to a fish would be eliminated by Lin Ao with a special magic.
"It's your gills, right?" Lin Ao replied, "Your gills can read my thoughts. ”
Old Man Ganbo's face turned completely gray all of a sudden, he didn't answer, just looked at Lin Ao quietly, waiting for his next answer.
"The gills, which are the specific respiratory organs of your fish, especially bony fish." Lin Ao continued, "In the water you can filter the water, leaving only oxygen to pour into your blood. In other words, this is a very strong filter officer that belongs only to fish. However...... At the time I first saw you, you had never used your gills, proving that you had other means of maintaining your vital signs than gills breathing. But ......"
"But then you changed. On the second time, at the beginning of the poker duel, you kept using your gills, and I didn't understand it until I lost to you, and you were filtering air on the ground. You are not here to breathe, but to filter most of the useless gases, leaving behind the purest of them so that you can analyze my objects. Body odor, perhaps? Hormones, perhaps? Brainwaves, perhaps? Either way, the rest of the stuff will allow you to capture the moment when my mood changed. SO, YOU JUDGE THE QUALITY OF MY HAND BY THIS, AND I WANT TO FIGHT YOU IN THE 'ICECORN' GAME, AND IN THIS WAY, BREAK MY RHYTHM AND FUNDAMENTALLY BREAK MY WILL. That's you! The biggest advantage as a fish! ”
"That's right...... I didn't expect you to be able to deduce it so accurately, young man. But what I want to know is, how exactly did you fool my gills? I almost thought you humans without magic could use magic. ”
"Without magic, humans have what humans can do!" Acting', this is the ability that only belongs to us humans! ”
"Acting? Is that something like a movie or TV series? ”
"You fish probably don't have the concept of 'acting', right? Acting, that is, human beings say and act out things that do not exist in reality. ”
"What's the difference between that and lying?"
"It's a big difference. Lying is a way to deceive others, and what acting skills want to deceive is yourself. ”
"Yourself?"
"Convince yourself that you have a bad hand, that you will lose this hand after the flop, that you are afraid that this hand will be born. But......" Lin Ao tapped the table with his hand as the old man learned from Gambo, "but what I am holding in my hand is an 'Ace'. As long as I trust my imagination in my head, not even your gills will be able to tell if I'm lying. Because in a way, what I'm talking about is also a 'reality' of my own. ”
Reality...... In fact, isn't each of us a "reality" living in our own minds? As long as we believe in something, then that thing really lives in our "consciousness". "Idealism", Lin Ao used this to break through the "gill detection" of the old man Ganbo.
"I see. After that, my abilities became a stumbling block, preventing me from judging the situation correctly. The confidence on Old Man Gambo's face turned into understanding and relief, and he always showed a smile. Young man, no, Lin Ao. You're doing a great job, and I'm convinced. Regarding this duel, I admit defeat, and you can directly gain the power to the next level. ”
With a wave of his hand, the inherent barrier created for duel vanished.
