Everyone sat around the table, and the ground monkey reached out to shuffle the deck of cards, and then raised his head and looked at everyone indifferently.

Qi Xia rubbed his forehead and said, "Earth Monkey, aren't you really going to explain the rules of this deck of cards?" ”

"Why, with your level, you should be able to guess in the game." The ground monkey carefully put down the cards, then took a cigarette out of his suit pocket and lit it.

After hearing this, Chen Junnan also felt a little unreasonable, and after enduring it for a long time, he still said, "Brother Monkey, then you really don't violate the rules?" ”

"Oh?" The ground monkey spat out a puff of smoke rings and asked lightly, "What's the violation?" ”

"Your old man's game is a "casino", and you, as an agent of this "casino", do you not let the people involved in gambling know the rules?" Chen Junnan said with a smile, "Then you really have a big heart, when will this store close down?" ”

"Huh." The ground monkey took the cigarette and put it between his fingers, "Losing all the 'Dao' because you are not familiar with the rules of a certain game is a daily occurrence in this casino, so I really don't have a violation." ”

Qi Xia snorted coldly after hearing this: "But how boring is this? ”

"Bored?"

"You've been waiting for so long to finally be able to activate this 'synodic moon', but are you ready to win with a poor message?" Qi Xia reached out and touched his chin, "This is all the tactics you can think of?" What are you afraid of? ”

Hearing this, the ground monkey's eyes wandered slightly, as if he was repeatedly scrutinizing Qi Xia's words, and after a few seconds, he sighed slightly and said, "That's right, in order to make the game go smoothly, I still have to tell you about common sense questions." ”

Qi Xia didn't know what the monkey was thinking, so he could only fold his hands in front of his chest and wait for his explanation.

The ground monkey put the shuffled cards on the table, and everyone looked at it, this deck of cards was not much, and the overall number should be less than a deck of poker, about thirty or forty cards.

I saw him lift the top card of the pile and place it on the table, revealing its surface.

There are only two regular script Chinese characters on it -

"Mango seed".

The ground monkey looked at the card, picked up the second card from the deck, and showed it to everyone.

"Mid-Autumn Festival".

When everyone sees these two cards, they naturally know what the card means, "Mangzhong" is one of the 24 solar terms, and "Mid-Autumn Festival" is a traditional festival, this deck of cards totals more than 30 cards, it is very likely to add all the cards of the 24 solar terms and traditional festivals, but to play with this deck of cards, what kind of game will it be?

"At the beginning of the game, a community card is drawn and placed in the center of the table for everyone to see." The ground monkey said, "Then each person draws two more cards, one bright and one dark, the open card can be shown to everyone, and the face card can only be viewed by themselves." ”

Qi Xia nodded after hearing this: "And then?" ”

"Ha ......," the ground monkey showed a weird smile, "and then we need to use the two cards in our hand, plus the "community card" in the center of the table, and use three cards to compare the rank to everyone, and the one with the highest card will win all the chips on the table." ”

"...... than size?"

These three words made everyone show puzzled expressions.

These cards only have Chinese characters on them, so what is the meaning of "comparing sizes"? Is it a comparison date?

But if you really compare the dates, why use the "open cards" and "hidden cards" in your hand plus the "community cards" in the center of the table?

Wouldn't it be more straightforward for everyone to draw a card to compare the size?

"As for the winning conditions...... You can rest assured. The ground monkey said, "After all, my "casino" has a bottom line, if your cards are bigger than mine, I will not admit it, that is, there is no "false report" situation, you win, but I cheat, this is really a violation." ”

"That'...... How to distinguish the winner from the loser? Qi Xia asked again, "Is it a game to be decided by one game?" ”

"No...... Of course not. The ground monkey shook his head, "I can finally take out my 'Synodic Moon', how can I decide the winner in one game?" ”

He picked up the two cards on the table, shuffled them again, and said, "Eight rounds, a total of eight rounds, after which the game is over, regardless of the chips." ”

Qi Xia frowned and nodded after hearing this.

Now they not only have to figure out the rules within eight rounds, but also win enough "Dao" for six people to redeem themselves in these eight rounds.

"How many Daos can I get in that round?" Xiao Cheng asked on the side.

"That's a good question." The ground monkey said, "At the beginning of the game, everyone pays a "Tao", and then everyone is dealt a "face card", and everyone needs to show this "face card", and then the person with the highest date written on the card begins to choose whether to raise or not. ”

"Raise?"

"That's right." The ground monkey nodded, "After all, I am a casino here, and the casino has its own rules." After the first person raises, the rest of the person will make three choices in clockwise order, either choose to "admit defeat", choose to "call", or continue to choose "raise", as the name suggests, conceding defeat is to give up the "way" that has been bet on the table and choose to stop the loss in time. "Calling" will take out the same chips as the first player, while "raising" will have more chips than the first player. ”

Several people nodded after hearing this.

"And once someone 'raises' halfway through, the rest of the people who don't 'concede' must restart the three selections clockwise until everyone "throws in" or everyone "calls." After the ground monkey finished speaking, he glanced at everyone, "These are all basic table rules, am I clear enough?" ”

Several people showed hesitant expressions at this time, although the ground monkey was not difficult to understand, but they did not understand the most critical rules.

How can I compare the size of the cards?

Once you've got your hand, how do you think your hand isn't worth the "bet"?

And for everyone, there is an even more difficult problem in front of them.

Even if this game really compares the size of the 24 solar terms with the dates of traditional festivals, the traditional festivals are easy to say, but who can accurately say the dates of the 24 solar terms?

Who has the bigger date of "Bai Lu", "Gu Yu" or "Mangzhong"?

They can only hope that it is not the date that needs to be compared, but the number of strokes on the text of the card, otherwise the difficulty of this game will soar to incredible heights.

"Whether you hear it or not...... That's all this game can tell you. After the ground monkey finished speaking, he looked up at the six people sitting in front of him, "Do you all want to participate in this gamble?" ”

Tian Tian and Xiao Cheng turned their heads to look at Zheng Yingying at the same time, while Chen Junnan asked Qi Xia in a low voice: "Old Qi, do you know the exact date of the twenty-four solar terms?" ”

Qi Xia rubbed his forehead after hearing this, although he was a little dizzy now, he knew that the problem was not here at all.
