The last emperor

Chapter 346 Guessing Poker

After Chen Lie went out, he never came back at night. He searched for prey alone in the abandoned and uninhabited neighborhoods of the southern district. After night fell, he could only find a place to rest before the moon rose, and continued when the moon could illuminate the earth. action.

He randomly picked an iron tool and killed a few zombies in the corridor, then pushed open a room and walked in. The inside was a mess, only two mummified corpses. They were a man and a woman hugging each other. Judging from their age, they were about 30 years old. Years old, the pipe of the gas stove is still broken.

The cold winter made the decayed corpse look human again, Chen Lie pulled a blanket from the bed to cover it, and sat in front of the window sill by himself.

There are still zombies in the building, but since his evolution, he found that as long as he doesn't get too close to the zombies, the zombies a few meters away will not take the initiative to attack, or even seem to have not noticed.

This made him feel like a zombie. This feeling is very uncomfortable, especially when he has activated all his abilities and entered a state of rage, he feels as savage as a beast afterwards. In that state, it is almost difficult for him to restrain his desire to kill. .

But in his heart, he yearns for powerful power. In his bones, he just likes power. Since he was revived and evolved by Zhang Jin, his power has increased explosively, which is very cool.

So he looked at the powder in his hands and was a little tangled. He felt that if he continued to grow stronger, he would fall into the darkness and could not turn back. His desire for power would never end, and he was afraid that he would become a beast that could only kill when he was furious.

But in retrospect, perhaps since being rescued by Zhang Jin, he is no longer the same Chen Lie as before. The darkness he wanted to escape from the underworld is doomed to be unavoidable after the end of the world, and he can only sink deeper and deeper.

"You are the striker of Black Dragon Castle."

Recalling Zhang Jin's words, Chen Lie clenched the medicine bottle in his hand. Zhang Jin is a person so shrewd that he can't understand. Everyone's arrangements have intentions. The people in Black Dragon Castle have never experienced any darkness, so they only chose A few people participated in the battle in Sifang Town. After the Black Wolf Gang was wiped out, those who entered the city without even using the Black Dragon Fort, now counting Yunfei's five people, there are only eight people in the real Black Dragon Fort here.

Chen Lie didn't think that Zhang Jin was deliberately favoring the Black Dragon Fort. This was actually the most rational use. The people in the Black Dragon Fort were at most like Lei Zheng's generation who got drunk and fought. Killing people is almost unacceptable, and it takes a long time to adapt to this kind of battle, even at the cost of life and blood.

So he, a man from the underworld, became a striker. This was Zhang Jin's arrangement and his own choice.

"Since this is the case, whoever will go to hell if I don't go to hell, I, Chen Lie, will be the hunter in hell, and I will stay with darkness for the rest of my life!"

Chen Lie unscrewed the medicine bottle, inhaled all the powder with his nose without hesitation, and soon the central nervous system was linked to a tingling pain in the brain. This pain is already bearable because it is accompanied by a palpable increase in strength.

Close your eyes and lean on the window sill, darkness once again covers the whole world, from this moment on, there is no turning back.

Minglang in the base is much more lively than before, he can go to the lobby and sit on the sofa to watch people come and go, and watch the soldiers training.

No one knew that Minglang could hear their hearts, which made Minglang much more natural than in Black Dragon Castle.

He hears all kinds of sounds, each sound is almost a musical note, everyone is different, use what Zhang Jin taught him, treat the sounds he hears as chocolate candies, and taste their flavors, someone is looking forward to it Thinking about being able to eat a fresh vegetable meal, some people are thinking about being able to get into bed early and sleep, some complain about too much training, and some are missing relatives who have been separated or are no longer there...

At night, when it was time to go to bed, everyone went back to their rooms, and Ming Lang was brought back by Bai Qin.

Bai Qin helped Ming Lang make the bed and said with a smile, "You seem to be very happy today."

Minglang nodded and said, "I have a lot of candy here, some of which I think I can share with you, because you are my closest person, is that okay?"

"Candy?" Bai Qin made the bed and sat on her own bed not far away and said with a smile: "Yes."

Minglang got into the quilt and sat rolled up on the bed and said: "An uncle is missing his daughter. His daughter is named Xueer. She was born on a snowy day in winter. Xueer is six years old this year. She went out with her mother. I went to visit grandma, but uncle has never found them."

Bai Qin nodded and said: "The uncle must love them very much, so he has been thinking about it all the time, maybe one day he will find Xue'er."

Minglang found that Bai Qin was not angry, so he nodded happily and said, "A big brother is more interesting. He has been thinking about braised pork, fried duck in sauce, and sweet and sour pork ribs. He drools, but I feel that I I'm drooling too, haha."

Bai Qin also laughed and said: "Then he must really like to eat, and I will definitely have a chance to eat these in the future."

Ming Lang smiled and nodded and said: "I also heard that everyone is very grateful to the castle owner. Although he may die in a war soon, but now he is living like a human being, unlike the people in the past, who did not give them enough to eat and forced them to eat. Looking for supplies, but the owner of the castle actually eats the same food as everyone else, everyone is very surprised."

Bai Qin smiled and said: "Well, the castle master is a good man, he has been working hard to save everyone, so we have to be grateful and listen to the castle master's words."

Minglang nodded and said: "There are also some bad candies. Sister Qin will not be happy when she hears them, so I keep them in my heart. The castle owner said, maybe these candies are just redundant, and no one will eat them naturally. It won’t make people unhappy, save the excess first, maybe it will be useful.”

Bai Qin rolled up the quilt to sleep and said, "Yes, the Castle Master said he did a lot to Minglang. Some candies don't bring happiness to people. Maybe only Minglang knows the taste, but Minglang can lock them up so that others can enjoy them." If you won’t be unhappy, then Ming Lang doesn’t have to be unhappy either.”

Minglang nodded and lay down, looked at the ceiling and said: "I have already learned to listen and store candy, I will see the castle owner tomorrow, I must help the castle owner to defeat the bad guys, I heard from Grandpa Xiao that there is a very Formidable enemies, they are all worried about this."

Bai Qin nodded. She really wanted to ask what kind of enemy she was, but she still didn't open her mouth. If the enemy wasn't strong, Zhang Jin wouldn't let Mingming come. She was a little worried about Zhang Jin. Ever since she first saw Zhang Jin, she found Zhang Jin Jin hardly has any rest time, and has been busy protecting everyone's safety and running for survival.

There is probably no one in Black Dragon Fort who can do more than Zhang Jin, and even his parents can't stay with him for a while, so he feels sorry for Zhang Jin, but Zhang Jin is a brave, resourceful man who can stand up to the sky, that's called Qingming There must be a way.

Minglang listened to Bai Qin's heart silently. Ever since she was about to come to the city, Sister Qin had been thinking about the Castle Lord in her heart, much more than usual. After coming here, she was thinking about it almost all the time, often secretly I was thinking about what the castle owner was doing, but I wanted to see it but never took any action. Even when I was eating, I sat very close, but I didn't even dare to look at it a few times.

Minglang couldn't figure out why, why he didn't do what he thought in his heart, if he had asked sister Qin before, but now he has learned to listen, to listen to others instead of telling what he heard.

The next day, after breakfast, he went directly to Zhang Jin.

After entering the room, he found that there was still a glass of water on the table. Mingming didn't rush to guess, but listened to Zhang Jin's heart with his heart, and sat silently on the sofa.

Zhang Jin took a sip from the water glass and said, "You've made rapid progress, and you've learned to observe calmly."

Ming Lang smiled and said, "I heard that, you are saying that Lang is a little villain."

"Oh, you still feel how I feel when I think of this sentence?" Zhang Jin said in surprise.

Minglang nodded and said with a smile: "The Castle Master said it with a smile, and even shaved his nose."

Bai Qin asked in surprise, "Is this true?"

Zhang Jin nodded and said with a smile: "Minglang's ability is very powerful. At first he could only hear what others were thinking, but now he should be able to read other people's inner feelings. This shows that Minglang has begun to master his ability."

Bai Qin nodded for Minglang's happiness, "Then I'll go out first."

Zhang Jin picked up two handfuls of poker cards from the table and said, "No, I need you to play a game today."

"Playing games?" Bai Qin was a little surprised to see Zhang Jin unpacking the poker box. Do you want to play poker?
Minglang happily clapped his hands and said, "Okay, let's play a game."

Zhang Jin asked Bai Qin to sit in his place, handed half of a brand new deck of poker to Bai Qin after shuffling a few times in his hands, and said, "Let's play a card guessing game first, and we will draw a card and put it on the table for Mingming to play." Guess, see if Minglang can guess right."

Bai Qin said with a smile: "I have played this game with Minglang, how can Minglang fail, he can guess every hundred times, even the suit."

Qingming also nodded, thinking that he would not lose.

Zhang Jin said with a smile: "Then let's make a bet, if Minglang can't guess mine, you two will have a note on your face."

Bai Qin couldn't help laughing and said, "You've really started playing games, okay, I'm very optimistic about Mingming."

"Well, let's go." Zhang Jin washed his half deck of poker again in his hand, then took out one, looked at it for a few seconds, and then put it on the table with his back on his back.

Bai Qin also picked one, and put the poker on the table with a very serious expression.

Minglang chuckled and said, "Sister Qin's is a seven of diamonds, and the castle master's is an ace of hearts."

Bai Qin sighed and turned over the cards helplessly, and it turned out to be a seven of diamonds, she said: "I obviously thought about a lot of cards in a mess."

"Then you can post notes." Zhang Jin reached out and turned over the cards.

Minglang hurriedly said: "Sister Qin, isn't the Castle Master's Ace of Hearts? What I saw were a few flowers."

Bai Qin looked surprised and said, "It's plum blossom 3, how did you do it?"

"Paste the note first, and then tell you." Zhang Jin took a book from the side, tore a page and handed it to the two without mercy.

Bai Qin had no choice but to wet her face with the water from the water glass and stick it on her face. Qingming even hurriedly stuck it on her chin and said, "Master, Qingming clearly heard that it's the A of Hearts."

Zhang Jin picked up a card and handed it to Bai Qin, "Then what card did I give you, Sister Qin?"

Clearly said: "Nine of Spades."

Bai Qin said with a look of surprise: "No, but what you're thinking of is the nine of spades, just take a look, do you know what this card is?"

"Five of diamonds." Zhang Jin said.

Bai Qin was even more surprised and put the card on the table, it was indeed a five of diamonds.

Ming Lang said with a gloomy face, "Why can't I guess the castle master's card?"

"I'll try." Bai Qin picked up a poker, picked a card, glanced at it, then put the back on the table and said, "Guess, Qinglang."

Minglang listened attentively for a moment and said, "No, sister Qin, you don't even know what your cards are, why do you want me to guess."

Bai Qin thought about all kinds of cards in her mind in order to confuse Mingming. This trick worked once before, but Zhang Jin should be this trick just now, but she smiled awkwardly, and when she got nervous, she just glanced at it, not daring to memorize the card in her heart. What, I really don't even know myself.

"No, even if I don't know, Minglang, how did you find out that I don't know my own card? I haven't even thought about what that card is."

Mingming proudly said: "In the past, you were able to deceive me once with this trick, but now you can't. The master of the castle taught me how to listen more. I have been listening since you took the cards. The cards in your heart are just thinking about it. , if you really see your cards clearly, I will tell the difference."

Bai Qin was dissatisfied and said, "Why can't you tell the castle owner, he also draws cards like this."

Ming Lang froze for a moment and said: "Yes, the castle master must have only glanced at it, I listened attentively, obviously the only thought that the castle master flashed was the five of diamonds."

Zhang Jin said with a smile: "Your method is correct, but not all correct. Remember when I came in and you heard the picture of me scraping your nose with my hands?"

Mingming nodded.

Zhang Jin said: "What you hear may be a false image, but if you hear the emotion, it will be easier to tell the truth from the false. When I picked up the card, I glanced at it, and then there were two thoughts in my mind. The first one is What is the real card? The second one is a fake card that deceives you. I will deliberately flash the thought of the real card, and what you hear will be vague or even impossible to find, because I actually didn’t read very much. Be clear, and then my thoughts will start to focus on fake cards, and you will be induced to ignore my previous thoughts for a moment and listen to fake cards."

Ming Lang rubbed his head and said, "If you picked up the cards and didn't even look at them carefully, and only thought about fake cards, how could you remember the real cards?"

Zhang Jin nodded and said: "Most people are indeed like this. If you want to remember something, you must first repeat it in your heart, but if this person has a super memory or has a special memory method, it is not necessary, and you can only Hearing what others are thinking at the moment, if you miss it, you can’t hear it, so you can’t hear the real card.”

Bai Qin was in a daze with surprise on her face. She couldn't match her brain, so how could she be single-minded.

Zhang Jin smiled and said, "Bai Qin, I have a task for you."

"Okay." Bai Qin was busy waiting for the task to be assigned.

Zhang Jin put away the poker and handed it to Bai Qin, "Use this game to win Qingming three times, and then come to me again."

"Ah, it's a bit difficult." Bai Qin felt impossible in her heart for a moment, but then she smiled and said, "As long as the Castle Master completes the task, as long as I can win once, then I have to win Qingming ten times, otherwise this little guy beat me before." Too much and it's not fair."

Ming Lang stuck out his tongue and said, "I can't guess how powerful the Castle Master is, but Sister Qin is defeated."

Bai Qin grabbed the old book and said, "Just wait and see, I'm going to make you a pretty face."

"Not afraid, not afraid." Ming Lang stuck out his tongue mischievously.
