264 Xu Tianran, the God of Gamblers
In a city, the gold cave is either a green building or a casino, and three-year-old children know this truth.
Wherever the living people of Prajna City gather, they must be rich people with a lot of souls on their backs, and where the rich are located, it must be a place where they can squander a lot of fireworks and willow alleys.
The strange law of absorbing the soul of the city of Pranya makes the whole city permeated with an atmosphere of doomsday carnival, anyway, there is too much death, everywhere is drunk today, tomorrow is sad, tomorrow is sad.
No one knows which comes first, death or tomorrow.
Therefore, there are casinos all over the city, and the gamblers take their only soul to fight for wealth, but after all, most of them fold in the city, and the wealth is fruitless, and they become the walking corpses of the city.
Xu Tianran jumped slightly, climbed high and looked, and immediately saw the place with the most people in Pranya City, the casino directly under the white-haired Demon Sect.
And what about the most crowded places at night?
Needless to say, it must be a green building.
Gambling money during the day, if you win, you go to the Qinglou to spend a lot of money, and if you lose, you sell your soul to the demon lord and become a puppet in Prajna City.
The white-haired Demon Sect has been established for less than a thousand years, and it has stood in the demon world for hundreds of years unconsciously, and the power of the Demon Sect is not large, especially the very few monks in the Ancestor Hall, but their strength should not be underestimated.
Ten years ago, the previous generation of demon lords was provoked by Long Tianxing, and actually led the elite of the Demon Sect to attack Wutong City, and finally the previous generation of demon lords first succeeded in seriously injuring the Phoenix Lord by relying on a fierce raid, and once occupied the Wutong Palace, almost occupying the Feng Clan Patriarch Hall.
Unexpectedly, Feng Jiutian, who was ordered to be in danger, led the Phoenix clan to launch a counterattack, and finally the previous generation of Demon Sect fell in Wutong Palace, which may also be an important opportunity for Feng Jiutian to become a half-step land immortal.
After all, after obtaining the luck of the Great Perfection of the Flying Ascension Realm of the previous generation of the Phoenix Lord, and immediately obtaining the Great Perfection of the Demon Lord's Flying Ascension Realm, the two lucks were added, and the inheritance of the Ancestor Hall of the Feng Yi Clan, Feng Jiutian took that crucial half step by chance.
Xu Tianran, Mu Lengqing, Zhengxuan and Lotte appeared together in front of the largest casino in Prajna City, the casino is a place of three religions and nine streams, and will not let people enter because of Zhengxuan and Lotte's shabby clothes, after all, the casino hopes most for these newcomers, and harvesting the souls of novices is an important income in the casino.
Trying to make money from those old monsters who have become spirits is not more difficult than ascending to the sky, but in fact it is not so easy.
A fox demon man dressed as a rich man kept his eyes on Xu Tianran and the four of them, as if he had captured a new prey.
The rich and noble fox demon squinted and smiled at Xu Tianran's warm greeting, "Childe, the new here?"
Xu Tianran nodded.
The fox demon flicked his wide sleeves lightly and said with a smile: "Childe, do you want to play two?"
Xu Tianran's ability to see through people's hearts can be described as invincible in the casino, the fox demon sent to the door, the fox demon's mind is in his eyes, Xu Tianran continued to pretend to be stupid, "I am new to the city, come to try my luck, however, I don't know much about the rules of the casino, dare to ask Brother Tai Casino how to play?"
The fox demon's narrow eyes smiled slightly: "As long as you have the capital, you can gamble as much as you want." ”
"Chips are all souls?"
"Yes, Nian is just here, and it is estimated that his soul will be the capital, Childe can go to change the chips first, and then, let's play two games?"
Xu Tianran pretended to be a little worried, "I don't have many souls, let's play a small one first, I only dare to exchange five souls, and if I have more, I'm afraid that I will die directly in Pranya City." ”
"Childe, don't be afraid, there are four of you in a group, and there are twenty pieces of soul for one person, which is not a small amount in Pranya City, one soul is enough to live in an inn in Praruo City for a month, or sleep with a fox in the Qinglou. ”
Xu Tianran shuddered, and then, inexplicably, he went to the casino counter, and the shopkeeper condescendingly glanced at the unfamiliar face, and said expressionlessly: "A piece of soul and a chip." ”
Obviously, this shopkeeper is also a puppet, and his soul has already been drained.
Xu Tianran cautiously asked, "Can the siphoned soul be redeemed?"
The shopkeeper nodded, "Yes, as long as you can win, you can use your soul to benefit your own soul." ”
Xu Tianran crossed his hands and touched his fingers nervously, as if he was seriously calculating, how could the fox demon let the meat in his hand run away, and said with a smile: "Don't be nervous, novices often have surprisingly good luck when they come to the casino for the first time." ”
Only then did Xu Tianran make up his mind and discuss with Mu Lengqing and the Zhengxuan Dao people, "If you believe me, each of us will give out five souls, and we will divide the souls that we win equally." ”
Mu Lengqing didn't say a word, so he asked the shopkeeper to cut off five pieces of soul with a soul cutting knife, Zhengxuan Lao Dao was naturally not cowardly, and he came out with five pieces of soul, Lotte Xiaodao didn't believe the surname Xu, but after thinking about it for a long time, he still gave five pieces of soul.
The fox demon couldn't help but sneer in his heart, the poor foreigner estimated that he would not last more than three days before he was completely reduced to a puppet.
In the case of almost the same luck gambling skills, the gambling competition is not who has more chips in his hand, this foreigner is only twenty soul chips, compared to a hundred chips in his pocket, where does he have half a chance of winning, besides, his gambling skills are not comparable to this novice.
The new face has attracted the attention of everyone in the casino, and there are really not many newcomers who can take out twenty pieces of soul at one time, but there are unspoken rules in the casino, whoever targets the newcomer who is sent to the door first will belong to whom, otherwise, this huge casino would have been out of order.
On the gambling table, Xu Tianran was very nervous, Mu Lengqing couldn't help sneering in his heart, this guy is really good at acting.
Xu Tianran touched it for a long time before he found a chip, and the fox demon on the opposite side was not in a hurry, newcomers were like this, they regarded chips as more expensive than life, and indeed every chip was a life, and the fox demon also threw out a chip casually.
In the casino, the competition is whose psychological quality is good, and the onlookers made a judgment when they saw it, and the black-clothed foreigner lost.
Pushing pai gow, Xu Tianran is also playing for the first time, not very clear, after repeatedly asking to determine the number, this is the puppet dealer dealt.
The fox demon smiled evilly, "Brother Tai, show the cards." ”
Xu Tianran showed the card, six points.
The fox demon shook his head, bad luck, you won the first game.
I saw that the fox demon didn't even open the card, but Xu Tianran had actually seen through the fox demon's mind, his card was seven points, and he deliberately lost the first game in order to lure Xu Tianran to increase his chips.
Xu Tianran pretended not to know, waved his hand excitedly, and won a chip, as if he had become rich overnight.
It's all an old casino routine.
In the second game, Xu Tianran carefully took out two chips.
The fox demon also threw two chips at random.
Xu Tianran won again, obviously the fox demon was deliberately releasing water.
The fox demon shook his head and sighed: "Sure enough, the newcomer's luck is good, I have lost two in a row, and the third one is to bet ten chips on us, do you dare to come?"
Lotte clenched his fists nervously, his palms were full of sweat, and said anxiously: "The surname Xu, be careful, we don't dare to bet so much at one time with few chips." ”
Beads of sweat broke out on Xu Tianran's forehead, his expression was cold, as if he was doing a fierce ideological struggle, and after a long time, he took out ten chips from his arms in black clothes and placed them neatly in front of him.
The weather was bad, and Lao Dao stepped on Lotte's feet and told him to shut up.
The fox demon saw that the stranger had been fooled, and he had already seen through the next hand, and he would win.
Xu Tianran looked at his cards, eight o'clock, and looked at the fox demon opposite with a fiery look.
The corners of the fox demon's mouth raised slightly, and he smiled: "I'm sorry, this won me, nine points." ”
In the embarrassed voices of everyone, Lotte cursed Xu Tianran loudly, "Are you going to lose the fuck all of us?"
The outcome is undecided, and civil strife has been born.
The fox demon and Yan Yuese asked, "Childe, are you still playing?"
Xu Tianran's eyes were red, covered with scarlet bloodshots, and the blue tendons on his forehead burst out, and he pushed out the remaining thirteen chips in one go.
The fox demon nodded contentedly and said, "Childe is so bold, I admire it." ”
Xu Tianran trembled and said: "Don't talk nonsense, deal cards." ”
The dealer was about to give the cards to the fox demon first, but Xu Tianran stopped him and said: "The cards are dealt to you first, and the cards are dealt to me first in this game." ”
The fox demon's eyes flashed with a hint of surprise, he had memorized the entire deck of cards, the first to deal the cards wins, but, after thinking about it, the fox demon is not in a hurry, first let you return to blood, and then win you all.
The fox demon said in a deep voice: "Yes, this card will be dealt to you first, and the chin will be dealt to me first, and so on, how about it?"
Xu Tianran nodded.
Xu Tianran gently opened the dominoes, but there were only two points, and he was so angry that Lotte only jumped to his feet, and almost stabbed Xu Tianran to death.
The fox demon spread his hands and sighed, "You won." ”
Xu Tianran was ecstatic, Lotte couldn't believe his eyes, and won both points.
In the blink of an eye, Xu Tianran had twenty-six chips in his hand, and he had already made a small profit of six.
Xu Tianran knew that the fox demon would win the next game, and the fox demon pointed out twenty-six chips and said with a smile: "One game will be the winner?"
Xu Tianran waved his hand, "Brother Tai, don't worry, my little brother has opinions on me, let's play a small game in this game, five chips." ”
Only then did the fox demon realize that this guy was pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger?
However, seeing him touch the cards and look at the cards is really a layman, and the fox demon is not aggressive.
Sure enough, the fox demon won.
Xu Tianran touched the twenty-one chips in his hand and said calmly: "Shuffle." ”
The fox demon nodded at the dealer.
The puppet dealer shuffled the cards expressionlessly, Xu Tianran's eyes were staring at the dominoes on the table, but the fox demon was calm, his hand touched the dominoes and he had already made invisible marks on the dominoes, and he could know the points in advance without counting the cards, how can you fight with me?
Xu Tianran gently wiped the beads of sweat on his forehead, pushed out twenty-one chips, and said calmly: "One game will determine the winner." ”
The fox demon also came to the end, "Just what I want." ”
The fox demon knows that his card is nine points, and the opposite card is six points, and he will win. What the fox demon wants to win is not just the twenty chips on this table, but all their souls.
Gamblers are like this, the more they gamble, the more they indulge in it, they can't extricate themselves, they always think that the next game can be turned over, and in the end, it is finally difficult to turn over.
The fox demon didn't look at the cards, flipped the dominoes casually, and said with a smile: "I won." ”
Xu Tianran's card is only six points, but the onlookers are in an uproar, the fox demon actually lost, only two points.
Xu Tianran put the chips in his pocket, patted his chest lightly, and muttered, "It's so thrilling, I actually won." ”
The fox demon couldn't believe his eyes, it was clear that the number of points he marked was nine points, how could he be wrong?
Xu Tianran put the chips in his pocket and was about to leave, and the fox demon shouted: "If you win, you want to leave, don't you really take my old gambler Wulei in your eyes?"
Xu Tianran looked at the dealer and asked, "Can't you leave if you win?"
The dealer was expressionless and said word by word: "You can go." ”
The fox demon Uray said angrily: "You should be the backyard of your family, today we will not distinguish the winner or loser, and no one will want to walk out of the casino safe and sound." ”
Xu Tianran panicked in his heart, moved to the gambling table again, and said tremblingly: "One last game with you." ”
Uray pushed out fifty-eight chips and said coldly: "The chips in your pocket plus the remaining souls of the four of you will determine the outcome of the game." ”
Ou Lei's calculations were extremely accurate, Xu Tianran had forty-two chips in his hands, plus the four of them had at least sixteen souls left, once Xu Tianran lost, they might be completely reduced to puppets.
Xu Tianran probed out his divine sense, Wu Lei still had fifty chips in his pocket, plus his soul, since Wu Lei was going to kill them all, Xu Tianran was naturally happy to see it, and said to the dealer: "I will draw my soul on the spot, since I want to gamble on my net worth, I can't just gamble my life, you also gamble together." ”
The casino shopkeeper came over and asked, "Guest, how many souls do you want?"
Xu Tianran looked at the soul cutting knife in the shopkeeper's hand and said calmly: "Make it up, one hundred and eighteen pieces." ”
The entire casino crowd watched, and even the casino elder Yan Shou came over, witnessing that this newcomer actually took one hundred and eighteen souls in public.
The shopkeeper asked again: "If the soul is not enough, it will become a puppet if it is not finished, will you continue to take it?"
The fox demon saw that the stranger on the opposite side was crazy, but since this was the case, he was also happy to see it, and the opportunity to make a fortune was in front of him, so he couldn't help but rub his hands with a smile on his face, as if a large amount of chips had been obtained.
One, two, three......
The people of the entire casino counted with the treasurer's soul cutting knife, counting to fifty pieces, the fox demon's face was already a little unkind, and there was a fear in his heart, this guy is definitely the role of pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger, fifty pieces of soul, and they are all top masters in Pranya City.
Ninety-nine, one hundred......
The fox demon's eyes widened, "Who are you?"
Xu Tianran pretended to be extremely painful, almost fainting under the gaming table, and barely squeezed out a few words, "Stranger." ”
A full one hundred and eighteen pieces of soul were taken out, the shopkeeper handed over the soul with one hand and the other handed over the money, and one hundred and eighteen chips were placed heavily in Xu Tianran's hand.
Xu Tianran, who was crumbling in shape, said madly: "If you want to gamble, you will gamble your life together, I want both your pocket and your soul." ”
Uray said disdainfully: "Just with you, I have one hundred and eight chips in my hand, plus my life, I will gamble with you on my life, my old gambler Uray has been in the city of Panruo, and he has never been defeated, brother, let's die." ”
Xu Tianran said in a deep voice: "Dealer, deal cards." ”
Ou Lei suddenly found that the marks he made had disappeared, and the young man opposite was extremely not simple, but he still had a killer weapon, closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and Wu Lei's spiritual power imperceptibly affected the dealer.
After decades of experience in the casino, how can you do it without the ability to press the bottom of the box, the moment you see your cards, Urey knows that he has won, double sky.
Now it was Xu Yan's turn to calm down, and said slowly: "Brother, let's open the cards." ”
Uray smiled: "Shuangtian, how do you compare with me?"
The whole casino is boiling, such a big card, but it is not common.
The corners of Xu Tianran's mouth curled slightly, and he smiled: "I'm sorry, I won, Supreme Treasure." ”
Xu Tianran's dominoes were opened, and Ou Lei shouted: "How is it possible, how can it be the Supreme Treasure?"
"Willing to gamble and lose. ”
Wu Lei said in horror: "Elder Yan, he is out of the old man, take him down quickly." ”
Casino elder Yan Shou was indifferent and said calmly: "I am willing to lose the bet." ”
In the blink of an eye, the shopkeeper of the casino held down Urey, and you still owe fifty-two pieces of soul.
Uray looked at the cold and shining soul cutting knife and knelt down and begged for mercy: "Brother Tai, I am willing to make you a cow and a horse, please spare my life." ”
Xu Tianran put away the big bag of chips and said with a smile: "Yes, you have become my slave from now on, sacrifice your soul to me, and I will spare your life." ”
Uray knelt down and kowtowed: "I, Ulei, will swear allegiance to my master from now on, and if I violate my oath, I will be punished by heaven and die." ”
Wu Lei thought in his heart, leaving the green mountains here, not afraid of running out of firewood, with his own wisdom, why is it difficult to let this outlander die quietly in Pranya City?
This group of people has already been targeted by all forces in Pranya City now, with so many chips on their backs, who is not red-eyed, I am afraid that they will not wait for the sun to rise tomorrow, and their souls will be cut off in the middle of the night.
Xu Tianran was not polite to Wu Lei, a wisp of divine consciousness quietly swung out, and the soul devouring and soul snatching method of learning, taking advantage of Wu Lei's negligence, he entered the Wu Lei Zhihai, and the sea of knowledge was controlled by Xu Tianran, how could he dare to betray the master?
Wu Lei only felt that something seemed to have entered his sea of knowledge, and in an instant, Xu Tianran's voice sounded in his head, although Wu Lei's realm was low, he also knew that the sea of knowledge was the most vulnerable place for cultivators, and if he was restrained, he would really become a marionette.
Xu Tianran was carrying a bag of chips in exchange for his soul in the envious eyes of the casino, and suddenly, a person appeared in the crowd and shouted, "Slow." ”
Everyone looked back and saw that it was the casino elder Yan Shou, "Childe wants to gamble again?"
Xu Tianran faintly sensed a hint of danger, Yan Shou's cultivation was not low, at least in the Transformation God Realm, "How to bet?"
Yan Shou smiled heartily: "Childe's cultivation is profound, and his soul is strong, so we don't play so many bells and whistles, so we compete for the number of souls, how about it?"
Yan Shou is famous for his souls, and it is rumored that he cut off 666 souls in competition with others, and this is not his limit, no one knows how strong Yan Shou's soul is.
Xu Tianran shook his head and said: "I don't dare to bet, I just cut off one hundred and eighteen pieces of soul, and I have almost fainted, and if I cut it again, I am afraid that I will really become a puppet." ”
Yan Shou smiled: "I'm alone, the two of you, how about it?"
Xu Tianran pondered for a long time, Yan Shou's thoughts Xu Tianran could see at a glance, but Xu Tianran himself didn't know how many souls he had, but he glanced at Mu Lengqing beside him, and still refused: "We have just arrived, and we are safe when we are rich, and we hope that Elder Yan will raise his noble hand and let us go." ”
Yan Shou continued to increase: "If you don't gamble on life and death, you can stop at any time, and if you lose, you will lose your severed soul, how about it?"
Xu Tianran was still hesitating, and Yan Shou made the final decision, "If I lose, add another thousand souls." ”
The whole casino was completely exploded, and he hadn't seen such a big gamble in a hundred years, although Yan Shou couldn't see the roots of this line, but he didn't allow a few outsiders to smash the signboard of the casino, and he wanted to leave when he won the money, when he claimed to be a three-foot-high Qingtian lord didn't exist.
After thinking about it for a long time, Xu Tianran couldn't resist the temptation, and slapped the table heavily, "I will accompany you to the end." ”
