Chapter 8
Because the little ghost had to stay on the small second floor, we had to go back to the house to revive our souls, so after getting off the bus, we took a long detour to the back of the house, asked Wang Liang to open the window, and climbed in through the window.

The hanged ghost said nervously: "You guys are back, I'm in a hurry."

Wang Liang said: "The gambler has been standing at the door for several hours."

The door on the second floor was smashed by Wu Xiang's body.

He is a majestic demon, entering here should be like entering the land of no one, why didn't he come in?

I immediately asked Sanniang and Paixiu to put me and the little ghost back in place, and went to the door to have a look.

The gambler stared warily at Wu Xiang's corpse standing on the door, and he was still talking to himself: "I have traveled all over the world for so many years, but I have never seen this kind of door decoration, and I put a dead person on the door." Come on, what kind of institution is this?"

After working for a long time, he never entered the door, just studying this.

I carefully opened a crack in the door and looked at him through the crack.

When the gambler saw me, he cautiously took out three dice and put them in front of him, saying, "What kind of tricks are you playing? What are these things!"

I said, "You can't see it yet, it's the doorknob."

"A doorknob?"

The door was opened casually by Reddy Gaga. I pulled Wu Xiang's leg behind the door and pushed it, and the door fell down with a bang.There was a cloud of dust at the door.

I spread my hands and said with a smile: "Look, it's just going to open."

The dust cleared and the gambler jumped aside.

It didn't even hit him.I am very sorry.

The gambler's face remained unchanged, and he still smiled hehehehe: "I see."

After finishing speaking, he walked into the room, the little ghost was looking out the door, saw the gambler, he was so frightened that he even forgot to close the door, his already white face became even paler with fright, his soul was almost transparent, he was about to be scared Lost in spirit, Sanniang held him down, slapped the little ghost a few times with the phoenix-patterned fan, and said with a slight smile, "Don't be afraid."

Only then did the little ghost's soul return to its original color.

When the gambler saw him, his eyes lit up: "I see." The gambler laughed, "I've forgotten where I buried you after so long, and the man told me it was here, and it was true."

I asked, "Who told you?"

"A man wearing a white suit and carrying a glutton." The gambler paused and said, "That is the person who changed my fate and told me that the soul of my mobile phone can become a demon."

Change your life!
"Definitely win!" The gambler laughed, "Long time no see."

The little ghost's soul trembled again, and Yun Mei hurriedly stepped forward to hug him.

"You must win!" The gambler shouted, "I still don't come here when I see the master."

When I heard this, I realized that I must win is the name of the little ghost. I said why I asked the little ghost what his name was, and he didn't say a word. The name...is so simple and simple.

Seeing that the little ghost still didn't move, the gambler stepped forward and prepared to catch the little ghost.

"Wait!" I grabbed the gambler's hand, "What do you want?"

The gambler said: "He is my little devil, I want to take him away."

"You have abandoned him for hundreds of years, and the contract has long since lost its validity. Even if you go to court, no one will care about you." I said, "Now he is my resident, so you can take him away if you want of."

The gambler asked, "What do you mean?"

"He is yours by birth, and my ghost when he dies." I blocked the little ghost and said loudly, "If you want to take him away, you have to pass my test first."

The gambler looked at me with those nervous eyes and asked, "What do you want?"

"I," I said word by word, "bet with you!"

The gambler was taken aback for a moment, and then laughed hehehehe: "Interesting! Interesting!"

"I have already won the souls of a thousand people, and I have cultivated into a gambling monster. How dare you challenge my gambling skills and seek your own death!" His dull eyes lit up instantly, and he glanced at us one by one. Guo: "You are looking for your own death!"

"Since it's gambling, there must be a bet." The gambler said with a chuckle, "What do you want to bet with me?"

"Of course it's a bet on the little ghost's soul. If you lose, then the contract between you and the little ghost will be invalid and he will be free." I said with a heartbroken heart, "If I lose, you will take my soul away!"

"Tsk tsk..." The gambler shook his head and said, "I saw that you were so imposing, I thought you would play big with me, but who knew it would be such an innocuous gamble."

I said angrily, "What did you say?"

"This kind of gambling, whether you win or lose, has no effect on me." The gambler shook the three dice in his hand and said, "It's boring! It's really boring!"

We didn't know what trick he was trying to use, so we all watched him warily and waited for him to continue.

"In the first half of my life, I would lose every gamble. After raising a kid, I was invincible. But my life is only a few dozen years, and raising a kid has consumed my lifespan. Before I have enjoyed all the glory and wealth, I feel that my body is getting worse every day. I ran away from this place." The gambler said, "But heaven will not kill me. Before I died, I met an expert and asked me what I did wrong. I told him that even if I died, I would still gamble! I would win too. People all over the world! So I became what I am now."

"Another mysterious expert..." Sanniang and I looked at each other and said meaningfully.

"I thought I would be happy this way, but then I found out that I was wrong!" The gambler's tone changed for the first time, he looked at his hands and said angrily, "A bet that can only win is not a bet! I knew the result before I gambled, and I knew I would win! Yes, I still gamble now, but the fun of gambling, the tension, excitement and excitement before the unknown result is announced are all gone!"

"Hundreds of years! For hundreds of years, I have never once felt the happiness brought by gambling! For these hundreds of years, I have been doing what I like the most! But I have no sense of happiness! And because I was with that tall man I can't stop gambling, I have to keep gambling with others to win other people's souls!" The gambler covered his face and roared, "It's been hundreds of years, I've lived a life that would be worse than death!"

"So," said Yunmei, "what do you want to do?"

"Now, ordinary bets can no longer satisfy me..." The gambler looked at me darkly through the fingers covering his face, "Let's play big."

"What's big?"

The gambler laughed hehehehe, raised his right hand, and held three dice between his fingers: "These three dice represent my mana. Let's bet three rounds. If you win any of the three rounds, In one round, even if I lose, not only will I lose the contract with the kid, but I will also lose my own mana."

"What's the use of losing mana?" I asked Pai Yao in my heart.

Pixiu said to me: "He does a lot of evil, if he loses his mana, he will immediately fall into the retribution of raising a little ghost. Not only will the suffering of the little ghost be repaid to him a thousand times, he will also be bitten by a thousand ghosts, and he will never be reborn forever. "

"You just said, 'If you win any of the three rounds.'" Sanniang asked, "What do you mean by 'you'?"

"Hehehehe." The gambler glanced at the ghosts and ghosts in the room, and replied, "I allow you to think of any way to win me, even though it's horsepower and I bet, but you can make ideas with him together Thousands, even using spells."

"Since you are a gambling monster, your magic power must be better than ours in gambling." Sanniang said again, "Using magic is not good for us."

"Well, since you brought it up." The gambler smiled conceitedly: "I don't use spells, if I use spells, I will lose."

"This is really weird. Winning one out of three rounds counts as winning, and we are more against less, and we can use tricks to use spells. This setting is completely biased towards us, and it is of no benefit to you. And you Not for charity." I asked, "What good are you doing?"

"My bet here is big, and your bets must naturally be increased." The gambler said hehehe, "I am not satisfied with only your soul. Whether it is a human, a ghost or a demon, the number of you here is as high as that of a demon." The quality is good."

He glanced around at us, and threw a dice to the ground. The dice was rolling on the ground, and the gambler said: "Since it's all bets, then our bets are also bets... If I win , just throw a dice, how many points the dice points to, you have to give me how many souls."

The dice finally settled, with the side of the six pointing straight up.

"If you lose all your souls to me before you win, then you will naturally be counted as losers." The gambler threw the remaining two dice, laughed hehe, with a cold light in his eyes, "How about it, bet or not?" ?”

I asked why this gambler was so kind and gave us such good conditions. It turned out that he not only wanted my soul, but also wanted to take all the ghosts and monsters in the house!
Leaving aside the little ghost, Reddy Gaga, the hanged ghost and the man's head, Guangyunmei and Sanniang are not ordinary monsters, plus Pikachu and me, a few people gang up to fight a gambler, and there may not be no chance of winning.

The gambler seemed to see what I was thinking. With a hehe smile, he raised the dice in his hand and said, "My soul is in these three dice, but they have no entity, and you can't touch them at all, so besides gambling, no one else can touch them." There's no other way to hurt me."

"So you have only one choice now, bet one round, and if you lose, I will take the kid away, and you will die." The gambler said slowly, "Or bet three rounds, as long as you win one of the three rounds, None of you will be fine, I will be the one who will die. Hehehehe." The gambler said, "How about it, which one is beneficial to you, you should be very clear, right?"

I thought about it in my heart, then turned around and asked other people: "I think based on the many things I have experienced before, and I can't die when others die, I must be the protagonist in TV dramas and books. So According to the law of the protagonist's immortality, even if I gamble with him, I will definitely win!"

Sanniang shook her head and smiled, "That's not necessarily the case."

The Hanged Man said, "What happens when Uncle Mary shits?"

Yun Mei said: "If you lose, the author can say 'the main character is dead, this book is over', and then he will be cheated openly."

"What?" The man said in shock, "There's another trick!"

Sanniang nodded: "Many authors are now eunuchs."

"Horsepower." Reddy Gaga looked at me very sadly: "I will miss you and the braised pork you gave me."

I feel like I'm in danger.

But if I gamble alone, I will die if I lose. I have never done anything particularly great in my life, and today I count it as one.If I die, the small advertising business will stop, and the work of urban management and cleaners in our city will be greatly reduced, and it can be regarded as gamblers eliminating harm for the people.

If you gamble three times, you will lose, and everyone in the small second floor will have to pay.

"We've already made up our minds." Sanniang looked at me, smiled softly, then pointed three fingers at the gambler, and said, "Let's bet three times!"

As soon as I heard it, I became anxious, and quickly said: "Wait, you have to think clearly, this is not worth it."

"I haven't gambled yet, the outcome is unknown, and no one knows if it's worth it." Yun Mei said, "Horsepower, we trust you."

"You are not alone, little ghost." Said the hanged ghost, "I spend more time with others than you, you can bet your life for Xiami, but I can't?"

"One more game, one more chance to win." The man said, "Isn't it a life! Whocare!"

Reddy nodded vigorously and said, "Care!!"

I slapped Reddy Gaga hard on the head, and looked at the ghosts in front of me with great emotion. The kid standing at the door of the storage room lowered his head and kept rubbing his eyes.

"Brother Ma, go ahead and fight." Sanniang looked at me and smiled, "It doesn't matter if you lose. I heard from Gou Fugui that the Naihe Bridge is currently planning to expand. Since the bridge is so big, it's inevitable to go alone. It’s too empty, it’s not necessarily a bad thing if everyone goes there together and it’s bustling.”

There was a fever in my chest, and inexplicable emotions piled up in my heart, which made me emotional and proud.

A friend is willing to risk his life to bet with me, what else can I say!

"Okay, let's gamble!" I turned around, pointed at the gambler, and said, "Let's gamble three times! We'll see if you die or I live!"

"It's life and death..." the gambler said with a chuckle, "Okay, but before that, let me tell you about the rules of gambling."

"And what rules," I said, "you can make us use spells, what rules are there?"

"These rules are not only binding you, but also binding me." The gambler said, "These are the three basic rules of gambling. As long as we start a bet, it is equivalent to forming a gambling contract. These three rules must be followed. The party who violates these rules Will be out of my wits."

"Okay, tell me," I said, "what three rules?"

"One," said the gambler, "gambling must be won and lost, such as 'I bet you win this game' cannot stand. Although I agree with you to use spells, gambling depends on skill. If I find out that the spells are tricky, you still lose."

"Secondly, the gamble that takes hundreds or thousands of years to see the result is not valid. There is a time limit for the gamble, and the maximum time shall not exceed 24 hours."

"Third, be willing to bet and admit defeat. No matter what you bet on, as long as you lose, you have to pay the bet and you cannot go back on your word."

"Wait," I said, "Who counts the bet?"

"Hehe..." the gambler said, "I knew you would ask this." After speaking, he flipped his hand and a person came out from the dice.

The man was wearing a police uniform and had a Chinese character face. He looked upright and looked very familiar.

Isn't this the police squad leader who appeared at the end of the previous Zhang Jiayan Die Xian incident and the previous dense fog incident, but this time he appeared so early.

The gambler smiled proudly: "When I escaped from the police station, I randomly arrested someone to be the referee of our gambling game. How about it, right and wrong in the world have always been judged by the yamen. I arrested a person from the yamen and came back to judge the outcome of the game. , you will also be convinced."

"What's going on here? What kind of tricks did you play? Where did you trap me just now?" The police captain shouted angrily at the gambler, "You even blatantly attacked the police!"

He was apparently arrested suddenly at the police station, with a police badge on his chest, with his name on it—Nan Chen.

"Don't worry, after the game is over, I will naturally let you go back," said the gambler, "but before that, you can't go anywhere, you can only judge our game here."

"What a mess, pretending to be a ghost." Nan Chen obviously heard our words in the dice, and veins popped on his forehead: "You not only kidnap the police, but also want me to watch you gather people to gamble!"

"He deserves it!" I said, "I told you to find something to do to fish him out of the sewer!"

"Hehehe." The gambler didn't care at all, took out a dice and threw it into the sky, and said, "Then, let's start gambling."

Following his words, the dice instantly expanded, turning into a barrier covering the entire second floor.A long table appeared in front of us, on which there were various gambling items such as poker, Pai Gow, mahjong, and roulette.

Looking at everything in front of him, Nan Chen obviously realized that what he was going through was extraordinary, and his face became more serious.

Sanniang and Yunmei immediately went up to check the things, then nodded to me: "These things don't have any mechanism, it's normal."

The gambler snorted, and said disdainfully: "What do you think of me? It's the work of low-level people to play tricks on these things! I'm a big gambler, how can I let that low-level Trick!"

He actually forgot who was the one who raised the little ghost to become a cheater.

The gambler asked Nan Chen, "How do you bet the first time?"

As expected of a policeman, Nan Chen quickly calmed down and said, "How about this, you roll the dice for the first game, and whoever gets the most points after throwing three dice decides what to bet. The loser will decide what to gamble for in the next game."

As soon as I heard it, I knew it was bad. Throwing dice must be a gambler's strength, and I was at a disadvantage from the beginning.I picked up three dice and threw them on the table, one at three, one at two, and the last at five.A total of ten points.

The gambler grinned and said to me, "Think about what to bet on the remaining two." Then he grabbed three dice and threw them on the table. The three dice spun for a long time, and when they finally stopped , a four o'clock one two o'clock one five o'clock, a total of eleven o'clock, just a little more than me.

"Oh." The man sighed, "It's only close, what a pity."

"No." Wang Liang said, "Look at the number of his dice, two of them are the same as those of horsepower, only one is a little more, the probability of this suit is much smaller than the probability of other combinations of points, this gambler It's clearly showing your ability to control the dice!"

Then if he comes up and directly asks to bet on the dice, I will definitely lose!
"Hehehehe." The gambler asked with a smile, "What would you like to bet on in the first round?"

Isn’t this nonsense, I’ve only seen most of this messy gambling equipment in movies, some have never seen it, and I can’t even pronounce their names, you are not asking me for nothing.

"It seems that you are not a frequent gambler, so let's play a simpler game. The first round is just a warm-up, and there is no need to be so serious." The gambler picked up a deck of cards from the table, "Why don't we Let's draw bastard."

"..." When he said this, not only me, but even Nan Chen was taken aback.

"Hehehehehe." The gambler opened the poker, lined it up, picked out a Xiaowang and an [-] and threw it on the table, "You all know the rules, right? Paired cards are picked out, and the two take turns to start from the table. The opponent draws cards, and whoever has Wang and Ba in his hand loses."

"Since you like multiple rounds so much, let's win two out of three rounds." The gambler took a deck of cards and threw them to Nan Chen, "Dismantle the cards and shuffle them."

"Wait a minute." I said, "Let's compete at least with a level player. Why is this kind of competition for elementary school students?"

"Brother Ma." Sanniang came over, picked up a few cards from the table, shuffled them, handed them to me, and said, "Let's try it out and tell us the cards."

I did as she said and switched the cards again.

"He has eight and one king in his hand now." Sanniang turned her head and asked the others, "Do you know which two it is?"

Yun Mei pondered for a while, then said: "The one on the far left, and the one on the right in the middle."

She got it right!
"No, you are a monster, maybe you can see through the cards." I reshuffled the cards and asked Reddy Gaga: "What do you think?"

Reddy quack said: "I'll draw!" Then he reached out and touched my cards one by one, and finally drew Wang and Ba without any mistakes.

I was taken aback: "What's going on!"

"Hey hey hey." Reddy Gaga said, "I touched Wang and Ba, and the corners of your mouth became stiff! Your eyeballs didn't move either!"

I have clearly controlled my expression, but people can still see it in the end!

Yunmei nodded and said: "When most people change cards, they will subconsciously change the important cards to places they think are safe. You have changed the three cards before twice, which shows that the importance of that card is different from that of ordinary cards. Different. Among the three cards, you have moved your eyes to the leftmost one and the middle right one many times. This is to confirm whether the position of the important card is correct and not easy to be found, so I think It's those two."

"It turns out to be like teeth." The hanged ghost said, "When gambling, there should be no facial expressions or unnecessary movements."

"Yes." Wang Liang said to me, "You have to pretend that nothing happened."
