"I don't think so." Chen Yan glanced at the deck of cards and smiled. "But if you insist......"

"Of course, I'm a man who believes in fate." Giles lowered the brim slightly. "So if you can win me, I'll make you happy."

"How do you play?" Chen Yan asked.

"Draw one. I guess the result, and if I guess wrong, I lose. ”

"So sure?"

"Of course." Gilles lowered the brim of his hat slightly, revealing only the slightly hooked corners of his mouth. "Lady Luck pampers me......"

As he spoke, he flicked the cards at Chen Yan, and Chen Yan's right hand flashed, and all the cards fell into his hands.

"Uh-oh...... Your fingers are also nimble and amazingly fast. Giles said in surprise.

"It doesn't matter, does it?" Chen Yan also began to shuffle the cards, but this time it was different from what he did in the casino, and his proficiency was as natural as breathing. The cards quickly switched between his fingers, and finally became a shadow, and a few seconds later, a square card 'brick' stopped in front of Chen Yan, Chen Yan's fingers flicked, and a card shot out with a whoosh, nailed to the wooden frame opposite.

"Now it's your turn?" Chen Yan made a gesture of please, and put the rest of the cards aside.

At this time, Gilles was not as confident as when he first came in, he glanced at Chen Yan with complicated eyes, and sighed. "Pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger is bad behavior."

"The same goes for you." Chen Yan smiled. From the massacre in the casino, he could see that this Gilles was by no means as powerless as the mercenary said, and his strength had reached at least the middle of the awakening level, or even the upper rank. It's just why I like other people's wives, it's a personal hobby.

The cards are so deeply embedded in the wooden frame that you can't see the underlying deck at all. Giles closed his eyes and spoke after a brief silence. "Forest."

Willy takes the cards down. Sure enough, it's a forest pattern.

"Ha, I said Lady Luck pampered me." Giles whistled happily. The corners of his mouth were provoked at Chen Yan. "How? One more time? ”

"Is that okay?"

"Of course, but only three times." Giles' smile was slightly defiant. "I'm a guy who is very willing to give my opponent a chance, and although it's a bad habit, I believe that Lady Luck wants to see it. You can also try twice, and any one of my guesses is wrong. ”

"To be overconfident is to be blind." Chen Yan sighed. A flick of your finger on the table. Another card was nailed to the wooden shelf. "But I won't turn down the opportunity to send it to the door."

"Babble, babble!" The goblin also flew on top of Chen Yan's head, waving his little fist at Gilles in demonstration.

Gilles smiled dumbly, but this time he didn't even close his eyes. "Caves."

The cards were turned over, and sure enough, it was a cave again.

The smile on Giles' face deepened, and he pointed to the cards again. "For the last time. If you let me guess again, I'll be gone. Don't blame me for being merciless. ”

"It's just a little game. But I'd love to see you lose. Chen Yan's expression did not show the slightest discouragement, and finally the third card was played.

The cards were spoiled into the wooden frame, but they were completely submerged. The wooden frame that only shook almost fell apart.

Feeling the condensed power of that card, Gilles's face changed. "I don't like to lose, and I can't lose. So you'd better learn to give up. ”

"Raven!!"

Bang. The wooden frame exploded, and the cards limply slid to the ground, revealing the pattern on them.

But where is the crow, it is clearly an ocean.

"Hah, win!" Willy laughed. The little goblin also happily hugged Chen Yan's head and shook it. Only Gilles stared at the cards on the ground in amazement, speechless for a while.

"Impossible......"

"It can't ......"

"Nope. It's absolutely impossible!! ”

Gilles suddenly raised his head and glared at Chen Yan. "You're cheating!"

'Poof. Chen Yan almost choked on a mouthful of water. Cheat? Are you embarrassed to say? A gamble is made into six I's, everyone knows who cheats, right? But now that he is the winner, there is no need to worry about him.

"You said it. There is no cheating if you don't catch. Chen Yan's eyebrows were raised, revealing a faint smile. Believe in fate......"

This sentence was used as a mantra by Gilles a moment ago. At this moment, it came out of Chen Yan's mouth, which had a different meaning.

So Gilles calmed down, and he silently crouched down to pick up the card and looked at it for a while. Then solemnly put it in its arms.

"I throw in the towel."

"I'm willing to gamble and lose, and I'm willing to pay whatever price you ask. But I don't have any money for the time being, if the amount you need is large, please give me a little time. ”

Giles said earnestly. There is no such thing as a scoundrel. Chen Yan's eyes narrowed slightly, as if he had met Gilles for the first time, he looked at him carefully, and said with a smile. 、

"A gambler who is sure to win, with the nickname of fate, told me that he has no money?"

"You can believe it or not. But that's just the way it is. Giles shrugged his shoulders. I'm not short of money, but I'm not going to save. The point of money to me is that it can be exchanged for a lot of things that keep people alive, so I usually let it stay where it should be. ”

"For example, civilians who are dying of starvation and freezing."

"Interesting." Chen Yan laughed. It can be seen that Gilles is a man with a story, and a person with a story must have his persistence. In Chen Yan's understanding, whether it is justice or evil, persistence is the truth.

"In that case, then you can give me a job. It just so happens that I've been in some trouble lately, and your strength can make it easier for me. ”

Chen Yan made the invitation, but Gilles' eyes widened. "Trouble? Do you know how much trouble I have right now? Dare you ask me to work? ”

"Exactly." Chen Yan nodded unceremoniously. "For two years until I'm satisfied."

"............" Gilles fell silent, and the black dress looked a little hazy in the light. Shente and the others all stared at him, waiting for his answer. He didn't know how long it took before he sighed and took off his top hat.

"You'll regret it."

"Heh......" Chen Yan laughed, his smile getting deeper and deeper. Trust me, the word never appears in my dictionary. ”

"Hahahaha......" The other people in the carriage also laughed, as if they had heard a big joke.

Troublesome? What is the bigger trouble now than Chen Yan's? The killers of the three great families are coming? Gilles probably didn't know what kind of contract he had signed. However, with him joining, everyone is more confident about the next journey.

At nightfall, the convoy restarted and headed out into the wilderness in the distance......

"Chen Yan, can you tell me what's going on with that card? I swear that card must be a crow. ”

"Can you tell me how I know it's not oceanic?"

"I can't."

"Then I'm sorry, I can't either." (To be continued......)
