Chapter 419: What He Said Is My Words
Night is approaching.
Another place.
Sarah pressed her hands on the table, her face cold: "No surprise, Juarez's ship has already set off at this time." In two days, they will return with a message, and everyone is ready, success or not, in one fell swoop! ”
The crew members sitting around the table all had serious faces and responded to their own voices.
Some of them were early followers of Sarah, and some joined later. But without exception, each of them put a lot of effort into it, and none of them wanted to see the plan go wrong at the last minute.
And Sarah has been dormant for fifteen years, and she is the one who most hopes for revenge.
Before Luch landed in Bilgewater, she had already made the move.
Boroka is just the target she has to do at the end of the day, even if she is exposed.
Planck is valued not only because he is a dog leg that can lick, but also because he has a keen sense of smell.
Whenever there is a disturbance, he will definitely be aware of it.
That's why Planck kept him to oversee Bilgewater.
If she doesn't get rid of him, then Sarah won't be able to do anything in Bilgewater.
Planck certainly wouldn't let her go so easily, and when his triumphant revelry was over, it was time to settle accounts.
She knew him too well.
It's a pity that she'll strike before then.
Thinking like this, a sneer appeared on Sarah's face, and the coldness emanating from her body seemed to lower the air around her by a few degrees.
Then Sarah raised her eyes and looked at Luki, "You and I are going somewhere." ”
Planck had left the temple of Bajou and returned to his domain.
His face was expressionless, and he exuded an aura of non-anger and self-righteousness all over his body, and he was wearing a new gray mink, and he was cutting orange peels with a dagger.
"Tell me about Boroka."
"Basically the same as what Marsilie said, Boroka first sent someone to rob the little white face, but he was defeated. Annoyed, he sent a reward. That night, the bounty hunter took someone to Boroka's lair and shot him with a single shot. ”
A man with a thin body and a thief's eyebrows and rat-eyed eyes carefully explained the situation, and did not even dare to raise his head during the period.
"Is that really the case?" Planck's voice was lukewarm, and no emotion could be heard.
"The little one dares to guarantee that it's true. After the lady of bad luck killed someone, she jumped out of the window and ran away. Afterwards, Boroka's men were also approached by the enemy."
The thin man quickly reported what happened next.
As he spoke, he seemed to feel a spreading coldness, and his body couldn't help but tremble.
"It's so daring." Planck lightly bit off half of the peeled orange, and there was a hint of coldness in his eyes, "It turns out that Lao Tzu is not here, and those people don't take Lao Tzu in their eyes at all." Any cat or dog dares to jump out. Alright, you stand down. ”
"The little one quits."
The man hurried away.
The sound of chewing sounded in the small room, and the slightly sour orange was Planck's favorite, and he finished eating one with a blank face, and then got up disapprovingly.
In the end, they are just some jumping off the beam and nobodies, who only dare to make waves when he is not there.
But now that he's back, any storm will subside, and Billgewater is his own after all.
It's a pity that Boroka died, and naturally he won't let go of the bounty hunter who dared to kill him.
You know, he has always been retribution, how could a sapphire buy him.
It's called Miss Doom, right?
A red-haired figure flashed in his mind, and more Planck was unimpressed.
How powerful can a guy who can't even make him remember?
For now, let her live for a while, and when the temple sacrifice is done, he will settle accounts with her.
The other end.
"Where are you going?"
Luki followed Sarah towards Bilgewater's Uptown, and couldn't help but ask.
Sarah said: "Go to meet a guy, whether the next plan can be achieved depends on how well he performs." ”
Lu Qi knew.
Soon, the two arrived at a casino in the upper city, where the decoration was resplendent and luxurious, and the noisy shouting was constantly coming from inside.
Sarah wore a broad hat that barely obscured her delicate countenance. But even so, the outstanding figure still attracted the attention of many people, but soon these eyes were diverted.
In a place like a casino, it is clear that the playing cards and dice on the table are more attractive than those of women.
As long as you win money here, the woman will throw herself into her arms when she goes out.
When Sarah entered, she looked around the arena until her eyes fell on a bearded man with a wide-brimmed hat.
His dress and demeanor are all elegant, and the corners of his mouth are naturally hooked with a gentle smile, which makes people feel harmless to humans and animals.
Even his actions of flipping cards and collecting money are full of gentleness.
In contrast, the gambler opposite him had red eyes, had already lost his head, and slapped the table angrily.
"Looks like I'm winning again, Moult, I'm out of luck today."
The man chuckled.
"Don't let out a fart, Lao Tzu is going to be transferred, come again!" Moult let out a low roar, took out the last of the money and sprinkled it on the table, and then urged the cards to be dealt.
When Sarah saw the scene in the distance, the corners of her mouth hooked, and she approached Luqi and whispered to him, "Find a way to win that guy's money, I'll wait for him outside." ”
She spat hot air out of her mouth and blew on Lucky's earlobe, and she didn't seem to be paying any attention to it.
I don't know if it's intentional or not.
With that, she turned and left, leaving Rouge here.
Lu Qi was slightly stunned when he saw her leaving, and wanted to say that this doomed chick must trust him too much, right?
How could she be sure that she could win all the money of the guy who was killing everyone at first sight?
However, Sarah did have such confidence at the moment, and she believed that it would not be difficult for Luqi to win all the money of a gambler.
She had planned to use some means to do this, but with Lu Qi here, she changed her mind.
Seeing that the Doom Chick was really gone, Lu Qi had no choice but to step towards the table.
There were a lot of people gathered around the table, some were real spectators, excited, greedy, jealous, and others waiting for the winner's tip.
In short, under the coaxing, the gamble of the two has also come to an end.
Once again, the cards were lifted, which immediately caused an uproar.
"Two pairs are greater than one, and Moult loses again!"
"Well, this guy is really unlucky."
"Tsk, lost a lot."
There was a lot of talk around, mixed with schadenfreude and joy, and in a place like a casino, it was normal for the family fortune to lose all its fortune in one day.
Moult's momentum withered and became a little more decadent, and he glanced at the card table unwillingly, but he could only stand up and leave lonely.
"I can only blame my luck today."
Watching yet another rich guy become impoverished by himself, the sense of accomplishment that welled up in Trist's heart made almost every cell of him fall into intoxication.
He likes the feeling of winning all the money that everyone else has.
I also like the thrill of gambling in gambling, and if you fail, you have to have nothing, which is so exciting.
Although, most of the time, Lady Luck is on his side.
"Looks like today's gamble is over."
After waiting for a while, seeing that no one was seated, Trist planned to collect the money and leave.
At this moment, a figure sat where Moult had left, and showed a more harmless smile than him: "Do you mind if I come to play two games?" ”
For some reason, Trist sensed a sense of danger in this guy, and the playing cards in his pocket trembled.
But looking at such a guy, he became interested instead.
Looks like you've run into an interesting opponent.
I just don't know what kind of expression he will show when he wins all his money later?
Trist was a little expectant, put away the movements he had just gotten up, sat down again, and smiled gently: "Of course I don't mind, I'm eager to meet a worthy opponent." However, you need a certain amount of gambling money to play the table, but I don't know if you have it. ”
"Is that enough?" Lu Qi casually placed a bag of gold coins in front of him, and the mouth of the bag was opened, and the golden color was sprinkled inside, fascinating the eyes of the people around him.
Their breath was rapid.
Trist's eyes narrowed, and he was very experienced, even if he didn't have to get his hands dirty, he could conclude that there were at least hundreds of gold coins in that bag.
Great customer service!
"Not only is it enough, it's more than enough." Trist's hands clasped together, and then stretched outward, easing the fatigue of his fingers, "What do you call a little brother?" ”
"Luffy."
"Just call me Feiqi, what are you going to play? Regular poker? Or blackjack? Or maybe the dice? ”
Trist asked confidently.
"Let's start with regular poker." Lu Qi always had a harmless smile on his face.
The rules of conventional poker are similar to those of Texas Hold'em that Rocky knows.
There are a total of 52 playing cards, and there are no trump cards. At the beginning of each hand, each player is given two cards as "hole cards", and then the dealer turns over a total of five "community cards" in three times, and each time the cards are dealt a betting circle, and then it is a game at the table.
After confirming that no one else was involved, the game between the two began.
After a few rounds of unremarkable exchanges, Trist simply touched the bottom and was ready to start exerting his strength.
At the table, he's basically invincible.
For cards, he has had a special ability since he was a child, and when he activates this ability, he can feel the position of almost every card in the deck.
So, every hand dealt, he knows by heart.
At the same time, he also has another ability, and that is luck.
Anything about 'gambling', his luck is not too bad. But it's not too good, and a lot of the time he's just right in a slightly higher position in the middle.
This is also the reason why he usually doesn't win big money.
But at this kind of table, it's more than enough.
After waiting for a few decks of cards, Trist finally waited for the time to make a move, and as the dealer dealt the two back cards, he grabbed and took a look.
Although he already knows what it is, he still likes the moment of looking at the cards, a pair of aces without accidents.
And Lucky, on the other hand, is a pair of Ks.
He threw out a few silver coins and chose to 'check', and put a long line to catch a big fish.
The dealer deals cards, an ace and a king, and if you calculate it, the cards of both are already bigger.
When it was Luki's turn, he threw out five gold coins, and then it was Trist's turn.
Unhurried to keep up, the dealer deals the cards in the second round.
A 9 and a 3 have nothing to do with their hand, but it doesn't matter either.
"After so many small fights, it seems that it's time to get serious." Trist chuckled, directly counted out thirty gold coins, stacked them together, and pushed them to the front, "Thirty gold coins." ”
There was an exclamation all of a sudden, and the eyes of the onlookers became excited one by one, and they finally saw the picture they wanted to see.
Seeing Trist make a big bet, Lucci seemed to be lost in thought.
Naturally, he already knew the identity of the other party.
It's none other than Card Master - Trist.
The doom chick really gave him a problem.
If you want to use normal means or compete in technology, I'm afraid it will be difficult to win all Trist's money.
Otherwise, people wouldn't be called Card Masters.
Fortunately, Lu Qi didn't plan to fight with him at first.
At this time, behind Trist, a slender figure that only Lu Qi could see was floating in the air, and after glancing at Trist's cards, he said: "His hand is a pair of aces, you seem to be about to lose." ”
Cana's melodious voice sounded, and she seemed to be quite engaged.
Hearing this, Lu Qi smiled at Trist: "It seems that your cards are not small, in this case, I fold." ”
As he spoke, he threw two cards from his hand at the dealer, equating a forfeit.
Seeing this scene, Trist's eyebrows raised slightly, and he looked at Lu Qi again, revealing a smile, "You guessed accurately, it's a pity." ”
He put away the money on the table, and although he won a few gold coins, he was not happy at all.
He was a little surprised by Lucky's reaction, how would he fold on this turn with three kings?
A bit out of the ordinary, right?
Could it be that he knows his hole cards?
Without even thinking about it, Trist directly vetoed it, and after many years of roaming the table, he had never met anyone like him.
And this ability is born with him, so there is only one possibility.
The other party is a master gambler, with keen judgment and intuition.
So, in the next few games, Trist continued to test and finally confirmed this.
Luki doesn't have the ability to read cards, but his instincts and judgments are sharp, which puts him under a lot of pressure.
This kind of opponent is often the most difficult to deal with, and must slowly wear down their fighting spirit, and Trist can be sure that as long as he is a gambler, there must be a time to get on top.
So, the two of them each held their own careful thoughts and kept playing on the table.
The onlookers gradually began to yawn and feel bored.
The scene of the fierce fight they expected was completely absent, and the two of them seemed to have come here to play a game of dealing.
It's either this fold or that fold, and the next table is more interesting than that.
Soon, the two changed from regular poker to blackjack, and they were still evenly matched, and it was difficult to distinguish between winning and losing.
Time passed little by little, and the two of them kept changing about how to play poker, and neither of them offered to leave.
As for going out of the thousand, they won't do it anymore, seeing that the other party is a master, and going out of the thousand in public is tantamount to looking for death.
Lu Qi knew that he would not be able to win against Trist, an old gambler, just by dealing cards all the time.
Because he probably has a special ability to sense the position of each card.
So he needs to wait patiently, slowly stimulate Trist's gambler mentality, and wait for an opportunity.
A moment later, the smell of smoke wafted through the casino, and the heads of smokers were dizzy.
Trist felt his temples swell, his eyes ached, and his brain ached. He knew that he had gambled for too long, and that his excessive ability to activate would be like this.
The use of mental power has reached its limit, and it can no longer be used.
We can't drag it out like this any longer, and we must find a way to end this gamble quickly.
He observed his opponent, and Luki's form was also affected, and it seemed that his nerves were tense until the last moment.
At this moment, Lu Qi took the initiative to spread his hands and said: "If it goes on like this, I don't know when it will end." Let's just make the big one, and win or lose the game. ”
Trist suddenly became interested, and a hint of gambler's frenzy appeared in his eyes, and he asked, "Okay, I like the spirit of happy stud, how do you want to bet?" ”
"Fifty-two cards, bet on one, Ace is the highest, 2 is the lowest, and the dice are used to decide who draws first."
Lu Qi briefly explained the rules.
Trist's eyes lit up, and he almost burst out laughing uncontrollably.
Luck?
And it's a game to win or lose.
This is exactly what he wants.
You know, even if Trist doesn't activate his ability, he can win money at the gambling table and by his own luck.
Because he knows that in the 'bet' part, Lady Luck must be on his side.
He's not a man of great luck, but his luck is never too bad, and he never loses in this regard.
No matter how you think about it, he has a great chance of winning.
However, he did not show the ecstasy in his heart, but nodded quietly: "Okay, then that's it, the game will be won or lost!" ”
As soon as they heard that a game would be won or lost, the surrounding audience also became excited and cheered up.
The two of them have the same amount of money on their desks at the moment, and that's all Trist has.
Their money was stacked on top of each other, and the dealer shuffled the cards, then placed them on the table and slid them, and the fifty-two cards that had been carried over were neatly arranged.
Trist closed his eyes, as if he was recuperating. In fact, he is using the only remaining mental power to sense each card.
However, the fists he clenched in his sleeves were clenched, but he did not react at all, and the launch failed. Sure enough, the frequent activation ability still produced a load, and at this time, his brain was buzzing, and he kept having a headache.
It seems that it can only be really relied on luck.
Trist opened his eyes, took a deep breath, and smiled calmly: "You don't have to compare the dice, you choose first." ”
He trusts in his luck and can't go wrong.
"yes, then you're welcome."
Luki raised his slender and slender fingers, landed on the card, swiped through them one by one, finally settled on one, and then lifted it.
Suddenly, a sigh sounded, and the onlookers seemed to have seen the loser of this duel.
At this time, in Lu Qi's hand, it was a 3.
The lowest card after 2.
Seeing this scene, the corners of Trist's mouth also hooked, and his whole body was relaxed.
Sure enough, Lady Luck was on his side.
No matter how he thinks about it, he has no reason to lose. Regrouping his spirit, Trist stretched out his hand and reached for the assignment, while saying confidently: "It seems that this game is coming to an end." ”
He didn't notice the smile on Lucie's face.
"Well, you can't do it without three desserts afterwards."
Cana stood in the air, one hand on her waist, and the other hand snapped her fingers.
With a confident smile on his face, Trist slowly lifted a card.
In the next second, his smile froze on his face, and a slight stiffness appeared.
And all around, there were even louder sighs and surprises, and people were stunned and even a little incredulous.
And even more incredible is Trist himself.
I saw the paper pie he picked up between his fingers, and a number was written on it.
2。
Smallest card!
A card that's lower than a 3!
The extremely low probability appeared in Trist's hands at this moment.
His whole body froze, as if he had become a statue, looking at the "2", the disbelief in his eyes could not dissipate for a long time.
"This is outrageous!"
"yes, I thought a 3 was already a loss, but I didn't expect him to draw a 2."
"Wonderful, I knew I was also on board."
"yes, just draw one, not bigger than these two?"
The audience was shocked and discussed, and a gamble that they thought they would lose ushered in a big reversal at the last moment.
The second-lowest 3 won the lowest two, and only four of the fifty-two cards lost, and Triist drew one of the four.
Outrageous!
Trist also felt quite outrageous, he had never encountered such a thing, he actually lost so completely in the matter of luck.
His eyes were a little red, like a demonic gambler, staring at Lu Qi: "One more game, let's have another game." ”
Lu Qi lightly took away the money on the table, and smiled: "You don't seem to have anything to suppress, you can win this game, even I didn't expect it, it seems that my luck is good?"
What is the saying? Lady Luck is smiling. ”
When the words fell, Trist was stunned on the spot again as if he had been struck by lightning.
Lady Luck smiling?
My word!
He's talking about my words!
Trist was shouting in his heart, and he watched as Luqi left with the money in style. I dug into my pocket, but I couldn't even take out a copper plate.
Penniless, he was once again penniless.
The most unacceptable thing for him was that he was at the gambling table and became penniless.
"I'll come again, and if you have the money, we might as well gamble again. But at least prepare for the sole proprietorship I see. ”
Before leaving, Luci rushed at Trist and left this sentence.
It's like giving a gambler the last glimmer of hope.
Trist came back to his senses, looked at the back of Lu Qi leaving, and silently remembered this back.
At the gaming table, he had never lost and had the biggest blow ever.
He never wondered, how could he possibly lose?
In his luck, it shouldn't have been.
If it had been a stroke of luck in the playing cards, Luci might not have been able to beat Trist.
Still, that's it.
From the very beginning, he was not fighting alone.
He never intended to play lucky.
After all, there is God above him, so wouldn't it be a waste not to use it?
As long as Trist's mental power is consumed and he can no longer use the perspective ability on the playing cards, it will be time for Cana to make a move.
A certain elf goddess is also very easy to buy.
Just three different desserts.
