Chapter 533: Watching the Pet Fight
In fact, there are many more monks in this gambling area than ordinary people.
After all, this gamble is the largest place in the casino, and the consumption is quite high. Ordinary ordinary people can't afford it at all. Besides, the monk also likes to come here to gamble, although he doesn't use spiritual magic, but the monk is a monk after all, not to mention anything else, he is blocked. Any baby, ordinary people may not be able to exchange it for bankruptcy.
Anyone who has played gambling knows that many gambling methods pay attention to a cost. If the capital is too small, it is often not a win, or it can be won but can only win a small win.
Those monks are like this, betting ten spirit stones and a spirit sword at every turn... How can you call the gambler, gambling king, and gambling saint of ordinary people? Every time you have to bet your own life, and even your soul?
Even if there are ordinary people, as soon as they come up, they will put on their own net worth and life, and even three souls and six spirits, and they will win. But it's hard to guarantee that you won't run into those monks who can't afford to lose, they are blocked every day, they have to gamble their lives every day, and nine lives are not enough to lose!
So, gradually, ordinary people learned to be obedient. Basically, there were no more laymen gambling with monks. Even in this man's gambling area. Or basically, the layman doesn't go out to gamble in person, and all give up his seat to the monks. And the ordinary people mostly buy horses on the sidelines. There are also those who are willing to be a staff officer or something, especially for those monks who come to play for the first time, to be a guide, to explain various gambling games, and even to accompany the practitioners.
So, strictly speaking, most of the people in this gambling area who sit on the seats and gamble are monks. It's just that they are generally very quiet, and there are very few of them who shout and scream, and they all sit there quietly. In this way, the audience next to them, including ordinary people who help or buy horses, are also quiet. How to put it, according to Wuxu, it looks a bit like a library or a study room.
Wuxu was curious and asked Li Mingshan. Li Mingshan knew this, and immediately explained, "Monk gambling fights, except for the missing part, are like rotten gamblers in the world, but in fact, they are generally more controllable. The gambling fight, one is to hone the mind, and the other is desperate to fight. But in any case, at least the posture and bearing of a monk will be maintained. ”
"Moreover, if you look closely, you will find that the kind of people who hone their minds will generally choose gambling in the casino, and those who really want to fight will often choose to gamble against other monks. Li Mingshan said to Wuxu while following the money shopkeeper and had already passed through many gambling tables.
During this period, Wuxu had already seen many monks get up and leave with expressionless faces, but from the surging state of the aura around them, he could still judge whether he was winning or losing.
But to be honest, in such a big casino, the way of gambling is not very rich, and it is far from being comparable to the later generations of Wuxu. In general, it's just a game of playing with points and size. With these games, Wuxu felt that it would be difficult for him and Zhu Yuanzhang to help cheat at that time, so he told Li Mingshan about it. Li Mingshan understood, so she asked the money shopkeeper, "In addition to these gambling fights, are there any other types?"
The money shopkeeper thought about it for a moment and said, "Actually, in addition to these, there is also a type of gambling method. However, this kind of gambling method should not be available in tomorrow's gambling game. However, it doesn't hurt for Taoist friends to take a look. Then he led Li Mingshan straight to a corner, took out a sign, and shook it at a monk who was obviously a casino. The monk, scarred and unable to speak, saw the sign, nodded, and then turned and walked out.
The money shopkeeper motioned for Li Mingshan and himself to go out with him. Out of the gambling area, this person did not go towards the gambling area, but walked more than 100 meters, and came to a lonely attic, which seemed to be a place for resting halfway. Because, after entering, there are all kinds of tea snacks inside, as well as many clean jade stools, or futons. Someone, already there, looked like a flawed person, or had red eyes.
The money shopkeeper seemed to be familiar with the road, and took Li Mingshan with him as if he were blind, and continued to move forward behind the scar monk. The scar monk walked over to a tiger screen. The open sheng is painted farther away and more blurred, while the tiger is so prominently painted that it occupies almost three-quarters of the whole picture, and I don't know what materials and spells are used, as if it will come out at any moment.
Brother Scar, standing in front of the tiger, stretched out his right hand and pressed his palm lightly on the tiger's head. Suddenly, the tiger seemed to come to life completely, and roared with its head up, and its bloody mouth opened wider and wider. Then, Li Mingshan seemed to really hear a roar. Then the screen was gone, and a bronze door was revealed in its place.
The bronze door had opened, and the Scar Monk stood aside. The money shopkeeper, with a shake of his sleeve, a spirit stone flew towards the scar monk, and at the same time strode forward with Li Mingshan.
The bronze door behind him closed automatically in an instant. Fortunately, the corridor was relatively wide, only about 100 meters, and then I came to a building that looked like a tavern.
The entire building seems to be made of boulders. At the gate, there were two guards, all of them angry, and their cultivation was not under Wuxu and the others. On the gate, there is a deep inscription on the big letter, "Dou", which gives people a more depressed or gloomy feeling, as if they have come to an ancient manor full of gloomy and murderous intent.
After the money shopkeeper and Li Mingshan entered, there was a person similar to the shopkeeper, with a straight face, and greeted him.
"What are the pets now?" the shopkeeper Qian, who seemed to recognize this person, asked directly.
This person, but did not recognize the money shopkeeper, replied in a hoarse voice, "There is a demon pet competition now, and there will be a human pet competition later." ”
Demon pet, human pet, Wuxu and Zhu Yuanzhang glanced at each other in the Dharma Realm, and their expressions became strange. I don't know what Zhu Yuanzhang thought of, but Wuxu thought of the Spartan fighting arena in later history textbooks.
Here, the money shopkeeper gave the man some spirit stones, received a stone talisman, something like a key, walked to a place, and opened the stone room, as if a room had been opened in a hotel. In the stone room, there are tea, snacks and seats similar to those in the previous attic, as well as soft couches, and even a bright jade wall that resembles a television. On the jade wall, an extremely bloody scene is being displayed. A monkey and a snake are fighting to the death. To be precise, it's a monster, not an ordinary animal. Because, whether it is a monkey or a snake, their eyes, although they are crazy at the moment, still retain a trace of spirituality, giving people a bit of the same feeling.
The monkey, with its yellow fur standing upright, looked like a steel needle. Half of its face was already rotting, as if it had been poisoned by snakes. The jumping action is also a little shaky, as if drunk.
The snake demon kept wriggling on the black ground, and tiny droplets of blood kept flowing out of its body. It seemed to be very jealous of the golden nails on the long arms of the monkey opposite, and kept staring at it, hissing and spitting letters.
"This is a special part of the casino. On both sides of the gambling fight, pets of the same level are placed in a special secret room to win or lose by life and death. The money shopkeeper explained to Li Mingshan succinctly.
"After being placed in the secret room, can the owner still control them?" Li Mingshan quickly came to her senses from the initial shock and asked thoughtfully.
The shopkeeper smiled with satisfaction, obviously because Li Mingshan could still ask such a crucial question at this time, "Generally speaking, it is not allowed." After the pet is put in the secret room, it is completely cut off from the outside world, so that it is truly fair. ”
"What if they don't fight?" like now," Li Mingshan pointed to Yubi, "even if they still fight in the end, the time will be wasted." ”
The money shopkeeper smiled mysteriously, "This naturally has a solution." Generally speaking, this kind of competition is to allow the pets on both sides to temporarily stop fighting, which is also for the complete realism of the competition, or the fun. However, if both parties feel that the time is too long, if they agree, they can ask the casino to use the madness. ”
As he spoke, a small hole appeared in each of the four walls of the secret room displayed on the jade wall. Then I saw that the monkey in the corner and the snake on the ground seemed to have been beaten with chicken blood. The monkey pounded his chest with both hands, and kept roaring, and the snake suddenly flew up, landing only on the ground with its tail, like a man standing upright. Then the serpent, with a hissing sound, like lightning, flew towards the monkey, whose body, which had been lying on its back, suddenly exerted its strength, and jumped like a fly, and its arms flew incessantly, forming a spinning golden gear.
A piece of blood was sprinkled, and the snake's body, under the monkey's golden claws, suddenly turned into more than ten pieces. But the monkey let out a whining and beat his chest with both hands. Then, he fell to the ground and convulsed. A moment later, a small snake flew out of its chest.
"This seven-step soul chasing snake is not only highly poisonous, but also has the ability to kill the enemy by cutting off the body. The water-clearing golden ape, although the defense is better, and the cultivation is a little higher, but it is defeated after all. The money shopkeeper said lightly on the side.
"Why bother so much?" Li Mingshan said in a cold voice, "It's better for the two masters to go down in person and compare."
Seeing that Li Mingshan seemed to be a little disgusted with this kind of gambling fight, the money shopkeeper thought about it, and couldn't help but explain, "Daoist friends don't know. This kind of gambling fight, albeit slightly bloody killing. But for some demon cultivators, it is also an excellent way to cultivate. Catching pets and not mentioning, how to domesticate and train pets is actually based on the owner's philosophy, hobbies and even resources, which is really an open and secret battle between owners. Moreover, whether it is the owner, or I and other audiences, sit and watch other lives or even the same kind become pets, and then fight each other in the secret room, never die, and calmly evaluate and bet, all of which are a kind of demonic heart cultivation. ”
Li Mingshan listened, silent, thoughtful, and the demonic energy in her body seemed to change.
The money shopkeeper, with a gleam in his eyes, thought about it, and seemed to think that it was not a bad thing for tomorrow's gamble, so he did not speak.
Wuxu and Zhu Yuanzhang, in the Dharma realm, are worried. If this Li Mingshan is deeper into the devil because of this, I am afraid it will be even more difficult to deal with.
"Amitabha!" Wuxu was in the Dharma realm, chanting the Buddha's name towards Li Mingshan.
Li Mingshan woke up immediately, but her face was cloudy. After a while, he still said to the money shopkeeper, "I see, I'll go back to rest and wait for tomorrow's gambling game." ”
Seeing that Li Mingshan was in a trance, the money shopkeeper was also worried that Li Mingshan had gone wrong for a while and affected his state, so he nodded, "Although I don't know how to gamble tomorrow, I don't think I will use this method." Just in case, Qian had the courage to bring Taoist friends to take a look. With that, he opened the stone chamber with a stone talisman.
But just as they were about to walk out, Wu Xuan in the Dharma Realm hurriedly sent a message to Li Mingshan, "Fellow Daoist, leave slowly!"
Li Mingshan stopped in surprise, and then looked towards the jade wall with some feeling.
In the same chamber, the monkey and the snake were long gone, replaced by two people. Two Terran monks, to be exact.
