"Do you still want to play?" Qiu Miao smiled and spread his hands.

"Okay, I'll meet you. ”

Tao Zuozi shook the hem of his clothes and sat down on the bloody chair as if nothing had happened.

"What are you doing in a daze, dealing cards?"

He knocked on the table at Chonglin, who was in a daze, and the latter came back to his senses.

His hands trembled a little, and he shuffled the cards twice to disrupt the poker. But no one urged him, after all, anyone needs time to calm down at this critical juncture.

The fire outside the house gradually began to spread, and the sound of crackling burning was occasionally heard into the house. But the two at the table were incredibly calm, as if they were engaged in an endurance duel.

Under the flickering firelight, in front of the two calm faces, a card was dealt to each other.

Young Master Tao uncovered half of the cards, which was a diamond seven.

He then got a three of hearts, and Qiu Miao got a four of spades.

Neither side called for a suspension.

So, the dealer Chonglin continued to deal cards. What Tao Zuoci got this time was a plum three.

"Dare to ask the dealer, do we have a word for splitting?"

"Splitting?" Qiu Miao frowned slightly, "Your chips - you only have one life, what to bet on?"

"So: I want to win you with both decks of cards, and I'll shoot you two, and you win both of them, and I'll shoot me twice. In terms of ending, nothing has changed, isn't it? If one deck is smaller than you, the other deck is bigger than you, or busts, how about sparing each other's lives if you don't burst?"

"I see, it's a means of reducing risk for you. I can promise you. ”

Qiu Miao smiled faintly and unfolded the fan.

When both sides are suspended, both sides reveal their hole cards.

Coincidentally, there is no book, and what is presented at the moment is a situation that is not even mentioned by Tao Zuo.

His two decks are 20 and 19. And Qiu Miao's deck of cards also happens to be 19 points.

Qiu Miao made a gesture of please. The meaning is obvious, the same number of cards, counted as a tie. And the initial card was bigger than him, which naturally counted as a victory for Young Master Tao.

When he got his gun back, he first looked at it carefully, and then wiped the dust on the hem of his clothes.

Chonglin heard the hopeless voices of everyone.

If you can't die, it's useless.

But he noticed that at this moment, under the light of the fire outside the window, Tao Zuozi's eyes turned a striking purple.

Qiu Miao's expression suddenly stiffened.

He slowly lowered the fan in his hand and rested one hand on his temple.

His face was ugly, as if he remembered something bad.

Chonglin saw several faces flashing quickly from his thoughts.

But it was so fast that he barely saw anything. I vaguely saw a woman with dyed purple hair, a man dressed in white, and the familiar face of the mocking thrush.

and a blonde teenage girl.

He was more impressed by this face, firstly, because she stayed for a long time, and secondly, because she had a striking scar on her face.

Qiu Miao's expression seemed painful.

No, the current power is too weak, it can only temporarily disturb people's minds, and there is no substantial lethality at all. Sure enough, violence is more direct and effective than trusting this power.

This is the sentence that Chonglin read in Tao Zuo's heart.

Before anyone else could realize what was happening, he raised his gun and aimed it at the enemy's eyebrows.

If you don't have a heart, attack the head......

Gunshots rang out.

All were glued to the end of the bullet.

It rested firmly at Qiu Miao's fingertips.

"You ......"

"I can slow down time, I said," he said, his face was a little worse, and he seemed to be trying to adjust his emotions, "It's a good plan, but in terms of reaction, I'm still better." ”

"Isn't this cheating?!" Calyx shouted.

"I only promised not to use it in the game, but I didn't say that time should not be paused at checkout. What's more, who is the cheater, you yourself are like Spiegel in your own hearts. However, I will not pursue it this time. ”

"You're a fucking shameless man. ”

Tao Zuo said coldly, shoving the gun into the center of the table.

"You are complimenting the businessman. Qiu Miao smiled.

"I'm also a businessman, and I'm much thicker than you. ”

"I see. When it comes to default, you're still the better one. ”

Tao Zuoci sneered, waved his hand and walked away. Chonglin looked at the gun opposite him and was a little hesitant to bring it. At this moment, he heard the voice that Young Master Tao was thinking again.

Don't move.

Looking at the gun on the table, he raised his eyes and saw his companions standing over there.

He understood the significance of the move.

Ultramarine sat in the player's seat. Yue Wange pulled her, but she gently pushed her hand away.

Lifting the corners of her hole cards slightly, she saw the tip of the ace.

On the first card, she got a nine of hearts.

...... p.m.

Ultramarine looked at Qiu Miao's card, it was a King of spades, and he had already suspended.

The absence of a split means that the hole card may not be a king – but it is also possible that he has a hand but does not split. After all, if he wins, he will take his own life no matter what, and there is no need to shoot more.

In short, his hole card must be a big number.

But now, I'm about to blow my cards.

Although less than 2 is a very low probability......

She turned her head sideways and looked at Nan Xuan lying on the ground, with an immortal face like ashes.

Take a gamble.

I really can't do it, I don't know if the gravitational field can work when time is still.

"Your one is an A. Qiu Miao suddenly spoke.

"You...... Did you see the cards?"

"No, I just think your expression is too confident," he shrugged, "and I wasn't sure, but now it's certain." ”

Yue Wange clenched her fists and looked at Ultramarine, who shook her head slightly, signaling her not to be impulsive.

She's going to have another card.

Chonglin was a little surprised, and his eyes hurriedly swept over the corpse on the ground that was still warm. But he gritted his teeth and sent it to her anyway.

It's the two of hearts!

"21 o'clock!"

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Changsheng suddenly raised his head.

No, that's not the case......

"Well, I'm so lucky" Qiu Miao smiled and bent his eyebrows, "Coincidentally, so am I." ”

He opened his hole cards, and the same ace came into view.

"But Blackjack is better than any kind of 21. ”

Ultramarine's whole body cooled down.

Yue Wange was about to make a move, but at this moment, Gu Qiancheng moved the corners of her lips.

"Can't ...... anymore"

"W-What?"

Chonglin was a little confused.

Changsheng felt that the thing he had expected was about to happen.

Immediately after, the gunshots rang out again.

This time, Qiu Miao bowed down in front of him, and his glasses were thrown at the corner of the table on the side.

It wasn't long before another bright blood flower bloomed on the mahogany tabletop.

There is a yellowish-white turbidity mixed in the middle.

The room became unusually quiet.

The flames outside the house were still dancing happily, as if they were celebrating something.

Changsheng didn't realize at all when Gu Qiancheng appeared next to Jiang Shuo and Qiu Miao, let alone when she grabbed the gun and fired the bullet.

But her hands kept shaking. She could barely hold a gun. Soon, the detached gun fell to the ground.

After all, it's the first time I've touched something like this.

He has never killed anyone.

The fine beads of sweat on her forehead clearly showed a long ideological struggle.

But it was only for a moment.

Looking at Gu Qiancheng's golden eyes reflected in the faint firelight, she understood.

She is also a temporal power, with powers similar to pausing time.

Changsheng didn't know how long she paused. However, this must be a painful decision.

A decision that allows good people to feel the pain.

On the other side, Chonglin, who had been watching Qiu Miao, felt a familiar dizziness hit him again.

But this time, neither Shi Xue nor Liu Xili stepped forward to help him. They still had a lingering resistance to the man beside him, the dead man.

Gu Qiancheng didn't come to help him. Even, she seems to be the one who needs more attention.

Her complexion has always been very white, but at this time, her bloodless face was like a bleak white paper, white and transparent. She was in a trance, her body frozen in place like a statue.

Tao Zuozi stepped forward and picked up the gun, blowing the dust on it.

Jiang Shuo pulled out a knife and walked up as well. Ahnsong hesitated for a moment and followed.

He lifted the body up and let it rest. The two blood holes in the forehead and chest were shocking.

"You...... What are you going to do? ”

Anseong's voice was unnatural, and he seemed to expect something bad.

"Of course, let's see if this guy has a heart. ”

As he said this, he pressed his hand to the corpse's chest. But the moment he touched Qiu Miao, that part of his body suddenly spread out fine web-like cracks along the bullet hole.

Jiang Shuo withdrew his hand and watched as the corpse in front of him shattered into a cloud of ashes.

The ash was swept up by an unknown wind and carried towards the slowly opening door.

The fire galloped towards the house like a herd of horses out of control.

Konai opened the back door and beckoned them, and Tausa walked straight over. Then, too, the calyx ran there.

Chonglin pulled up Shi Xue, Shi Xue led Liu Xili, and the group also ran to the only exit.

Yue Wange and Ultramarine urged Gu Qiancheng, but she didn't move. Anseong had to let them carry the guide on his back. He gestured to Jiang Shuo and motioned for him to leave quickly.

Changsheng's eyes reflected the fire of the prairie fire, I don't know if it was the redness of the reflection, or if it was such a color itself.

She knelt beside Nan Xuan's corpse, without saying a word, and had no intention of moving.

"Are you crazy? You're going to be burned to death. ”

Jiang Shuo tugged at her, but she still didn't react.

He had to pull the fabric off her shoulders and forcibly drag her away.

"Wait! No, just for a moment, don't touch me! I'll stay with her for a while! There's so much more I haven't finished for her, and I haven't explained a lot of things. I'll just take a look, just take a look!"

She tugged at Nan Xuan's sleeve and tried to pull out the flower she was holding tightly with one hand.

In Changsheng's hoarseness, Jiang Shuo had to cut off the fabric of the cuffs before dragging her away.

It's as difficult as pulling a nail out of a wooden board with your bare hands.

The sound of fire devouring wood rattled.

Thinking they've run long enough in the backyard, they slow down. Someone slowly turned around.

Gu Qiancheng, who was sluggish before, suddenly burst out into a terrible cry.

Sorrow, sorrow, and despair.

But Changsheng no longer spoke.

The last spark in her eyes was extinguished.
