Chapter 344 I Know a Little About Texas
In the empty underground tunnel, the old train rumbled.
Some of the passengers in the carriage sat comfortably on their seats, some sat at the window and looked around curiously, and some were thinking and analyzing with a blank face...
And everyone is basically relaxed, leaving Avalon, which is known as impossible to "break out of prison", the new Nibelungen can't be worse.
As for danger?
With Lu Chen here, if you see the Dragon King who is easy to talk, talk to them and let them go out.
Even Lu Mingfei doesn't think there is any first-generation species that can defeat Senior Brother Lu. The heroic spirit of a place in Avalon is the best interpretation. After absorbing the power of the four first-generation species, Senior Brother Lu is already a super giant. monster.
Among the crowd, there is only one person who is full of apprehension...
Xia Mi felt that she was playing off.
She forgot that if someone entered the Nibelungen set up by her stupid brother, there would be a subway station to pick her up automatically.
She didn't dare to comment on what kind of dragon she was, but her brother was absolutely harmless. He had never prepared to kill anyone, as could be seen from the characteristics of the Nibelungen.
No matter how hungry you are after entering, you will not die, and as long as you can win the game with the dealer, you can leave this place.
To put it bluntly, the stupid brother is just too lonely and wants to find someone to play with him.
But now the problem is very serious, because of this slight negligence, the subway appeared in front of Lu Chen, and I felt very curious that Eliyi was still alive.
Then Senior Brother Lu, a wife-loving madman, definitely wants to go up and sit around even if he doesn't want to see the Dragon King!
Originally, she could think of a way to fool her, let the subway go back to the previous platform after running for a while, making Lu Chen and Eriyi feel that there is nothing in the Nibelungen, and then she persuaded everyone to go out with smooth words.
But... what is this Zhao Menghua! ?
Why did you break into my house!
It's illegal to break into a private house!
Breaking into the Dragon House... is also a crime, right?
And it's fine if you broke in, why is your mental quality so poor, and you won't die, why are you committing suicide! ?
Xia Mi's current state of mind is like a normal person who has been on a business trip for a long time, and when he returns home and opens the door, he finds a strange dead person lying on the carpet in the entrance, and he coincidentally brings his uncle and policeman friend to visit...
Terrible!
Although Zero has preliminarily judged that Zhao Menghua committed suicide, how can she explain it to "uncle policeman"?
The key point is that this has completely attracted the attention of "Uncle Policeman". Seeing Lu Chen's high spirits at the moment, he will not stop until he finds the Dragon King!
Even if she stops now, Lu Chen probably won't leave. Even if he does, he will still be groping in the Nibelungen.
And another troublesome cold-faced demon boy, seeing that his brother Lu wanted to find him, definitely spared no effort to mobilize his talents...
What should I do?
Xia Mi sneaked a glance at Chu Zihang, who was writing, drawing, and calculating with the small notebook provided by Ling. The other party was now recording the time, distance, and regularity of passing the platform every time.
At the moment, Lu Chen is putting the black dragon slaying soldier, which made her shudder when she saw it, in front of her knees, wiping and maintaining it with a rag.
Hey, didn't we promise to thank you! ?
One of you is serious about computing channels, and the other is maintaining weapons. You are completely ready to go to the battlefield! ?
In the end, she could only look for a new breakthrough, and the pillow wind was the best, she moved to the right without a trace, and sat next to Eri, "Eiri, don't you think it's boring to run here all the time? "
Yes, it was all because Erika expressed her interest in the subway, and she had to make this girl find it boring.
If you want to take the subway, I can accompany you all over BJ City at my own expense after you go out!
Kee Liyi shook her head, "It's quite fresh, and I feel a strong aura here, which becomes weaker and stronger as the subway moves forward."
Xia Mi wanted to cry, but she forgot that Huiliyi was also a spoiled husband. After she realized that Lu Chen wanted to see the Dragon King here, her purpose had completely changed now.
It's not looking at the "scenery" in the dark tunnel at all, but helping to find the Dragon King.
Of course that very powerful aura was referring to her stupid brother, because this channel circulates in a section, so of course there is a place that is really close to stupid brother.
In fact, without her control, this car should have stopped by the station a long time ago, arriving at the stupid brother's reserved item, Queen Kamaitachi's small Texas poker table.
"So long."
Lu Chen moved his neck and yawned. They had been sitting for more than 20 minutes.
Chu Zihang raised his head and said, "A cycle of about four minutes and 27 seconds. It was just the fifth time we passed the platform where we boarded the car. This car seems to be driving endlessly."
"True Moji, is this car not good? How about I stop it and let's take a look around?"
Lu Chen suggested that this car keeps running, and it doesn't stop around in cycles.
Chu Zihang remained expressionless, "You can try it, but Brother Lu, you have to be gentle, there are also juniors and younger sisters in the carriage."
Xia Mi almost jumped up when he heard it. Hey, hey, what are you two talking about? How can you discuss the violent stop of the subway so seriously?
This subway is so broken, how can it stand up to your tossing, it is an old toy bought by the stupid brother, if it is broken, what should I do if he asks me to get a new one?
"Brother Lu...should we observe for a while?"
Lu Mingfei was terrified when he heard this. What kind of brain circuit is this? This old-fashioned subway has a total of 6 carriages, and the total axles of the carriages should exceed [-] tons. Brother Lu, do you want to stop violently directly?
You thought you were The Amazing Spider-Man?
Oh no, Spider-Man is way weaker than Senior Brother Lu!
Xia Mi also quickly echoed Lu Mingfei, "Brother, I think what Lu has said makes sense this time, the Dragon King probably won't let us keep running in circles."
No, I can't drag it on anymore, I have to give Lu Chen something to do, let him and Eri Yi have a sense of exploration about the Nibelungen this time, so that the other party can leave.
This is the only way. At this time, she can only trust her brother.
"Godzilla, seems to be slowing down."
Erika reminded that she actually just saw a copper-colored figure in a flash on the road, but she was called out by Xia Mi, and she didn't see it clearly when she was distracted.
"Then see what's there when you arrive at the station."
Lu Chen stood up with King Killing in his hand, with a kind smile on his face.
Xia Mi really wanted to complain, Brother Lu, can you put down the knife first?
There was a slight friction sound between the axle and the track. This was not a sudden brake, but because the subway was too old.
The subway is quite stable, and the doors of the carriages are open.
"what--"
Lu Mingfei uttered a ghostly cry. He was standing in front of the car door all the time. As soon as the door opened, he felt that he had seen a ghost.
The bone frame of a nine-headed sickle weasel reflected the luster of bronze, and nine pairs of empty eyes stared straight at him.
Lu Chen habitually raised the knife, but seeing that the weasel didn't attack, he put it down again.
This made Xia Mi heave a sigh of relief. From the looks of it, she knew that Queen Kamaitachi was not a living Kamaitachi, but an alchemy living creature, equivalent to some kind of puppet that could be controlled remotely, and also the croupier here.
Next, she will use the game to satisfy Erika and make Lu Chen retreat.
"It's like a gambling table."
After getting out of the car, Chu Zihang glanced at Queen Kamaitachi, and then set his eyes on the rectangular gambling table in front of her. The green flannelette on it looked dirty, perhaps because of its age.
"The Dragon King in this place is really weird. Let's not talk about the ruins of the place, and even set up a gambling table. Could it be possible to invite people to play cards with him?"
Fingel complained.
Zero calmly speculated: "Probably not, this may be a rule in the Nibelungen, just like we used to solve puzzles in the Nibelungen."
"Is this thing alive? The pestle is motionless."
Lu Mingfei saw that the weasel queen was not moving, and Senior Brother Lu and the others were all around, so he boldly took two steps forward to observe.
At this time, the sickle weasel's bone frame suddenly poked its head forward, scaring Lu Mingfei into a shiver, and its mechanical voice sounded like a certain established procedure: "Participants in the game cannot communicate in any way, and if you win a thousand Caps and get out of here."
Lu Chen thought it was a bit fun. It was the first time he had seen such a Nibelungen puzzle. Compared with finding clues in ancient texts that he couldn't understand when he was full of Nibelungen, this kind of game was straightforward enough. .
"What does bottle cap mean?"
He knew that the other party was probably talking about chips, but they didn't have bottle caps on them.
The croupier's mechanical voice explained: "The bottle cap is the highest bargaining chip. One bottle cap is equal to ten compasses, one hundred cigarette cases, one thousand ancient copper coins, and ten thousand ancient silver coins."
Lu Chen was stunned. No matter how ignorant he was, he could clearly distinguish the value of the chips, but the croupier's value of the chips was completely distorted.
Erika didn't have any fear of the croupier with bones. In her opinion, this is an unrealistic magical creature. On the contrary, when she heard that she was going to play a game, she became interested, "Excuse me, how do we get chips? ?”
Chips are required to play, outside money certainly won't work here, and none of them have cash on them.
"Newcomers can get a certain amount of chips based on the loneliness in their hearts. If they run out of chips, they can continue to wait on the subway. Loneliness is your chip."
The croupier still explained with a mechanical voice.
At this moment, Chu Zihang thought for a while and asked, "You just said that you can leave if you win a thousand bottle caps, so how can you meet the... king here?"
He originally wanted to say that he was the master, but he was afraid that the living beings would not understand, and the Dragon King was not a human being.
After Chu Zihang finished asking, Huoling didn't respond. It was like a programmed NPC. This question was beyond its intelligent answering range.
When a normal person enters such a ghostly place, which one is not crying for his father and mother and wants to go out and go home quickly, and who is eager to find the Dragon King?
Lu Chen stepped forward and patted the croupier's head. Suddenly, the bronze-colored skeleton made a clicking sound, as if it was about to fall apart, "Tell me, it's not like we don't follow the rules of the game."
The croupier's skeleton trembled again...
From Xia Mi's point of view, the "kind" expression on Lu Chen's face used for negotiation is completely a devil's smile.
If you ask a question, just ask, why are you patting the sickle's house! ?
Didn’t look at the airs and was almost taken away by you? Who will play with you?
However, she also quickly used her authority to secretly control this living creature. This is a good opportunity for everyone to retreat.
"Please don't take pictures of this handsome gentleman. If you want to see the Supreme, then..."
Xia Mi thought for a while, and set a goal that she thought was impossible to achieve, "...each of you must win two thousand bottle caps."
Lu Chen frowned. He has never played Texas Hold'em, but he knows what kind of game it is. This kind of game requires both mathematics and luck, but he...has neither.
If Chu Zihang and the others can win enough, he thinks it's okay, but it seems unrealistic for him to want to win so much.
"Can the chips be transferred?"
he asked.
The croupier was silent again. In principle, the chips cannot be transferred directly, but if you can deliberately lose to others in the game, it can be regarded as a transfer in disguise.
Xia Mi thought about it, and it would be better to follow Lu Chen's heart a little bit, but there should be no risk, so as a compromise, she manipulated the croupier and said, "It can be transferred, but there must be more than four of you who can reach the standard by themselves. Chips cannot be transferred directly between those four people.”
Xia Mi came up with this condition after careful consideration.
She still knows Lu Chen very well. She is a reckless man who knows nothing about probability theory. He is so unlucky. It is a dream to win 2000 bottle caps by himself.
As for Lu Mingfei, although he is quite mysterious, his grades in cultural subjects are terrible, and he is even weaker in mathematics, so it is impossible to win enough.
Then there is Fingel, she seems to have heard that this senior brother is actually pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger, but if he can fail to pass the eighth grade, his cultural performance will not be too strong.
In the end, she is herself, she also participates in the game, so 100%... Let the water go!
Stupid brother can't do anything else, but he is a first-class poker player, definitely the top in the world, and he is rarely rivaled in the field of Texas.
Chu Zihang and Zero have strong mathematical and analytical skills, and it is not impossible to win.
As for Erika, although her studies are average (mainly because she hasn't attended many classes), her luck is unbelievable for some reason.
To sum it up, if you take a hundred steps back, Chu Zihang, Ling, and Eliyi may reach the standard, but the rest cannot.
Perfect and absolutely safe!
"That's it, let's start."
Lu Chen nodded, thinking that this condition is acceptable.
His mentality is very calm, and he only regards this as a small game to relax after leaving Avalon. As for whether he can win, we will talk about it later.
It's best to win, and you can meet the Dragon King smoothly. If you can't win, he can change to another way of negotiation.
"Now start evaluating everyone's bargaining chips."
The croupier's mechanical voice said, looking at Lu Mingfei first, "A bottle cap."
As he spoke, he threw a beverage bottle cap with the Arctic Ocean printed on it to Lu Mingfei.
After receiving it, Lu Mingfei complained, "It's so rare."
He felt that the initial capital was too stingy. How long would it take to win two thousand?
But then the croupier looked at Xia Mi again: "A compass."
Xia Mi caught the compass by herself. According to the dealer's normal assessment, she does not have only one compass, but she is not lonely at all, and it is easy to make her too conspicuous.
It was Chu Zihang's turn, a compass.
Zero, a compass.
Fingal, a compass.
Lu Chen, a cigarette case.
Painted pear clothes, an ancient copper coin.
After the chips were all distributed, Lu Mingfei looked at the bottle cap in his hand in bewilderment. He suddenly realized that he had the most chips instead.
And what did the croupier say just now?The more lonely the heart, the more chips?
Grass, am I so lonely in my heart?
Obviously, I feel that I have been quite happy recently.
And Xia Mi was also a little surprised, except for herself, she didn't cheat, prying into people's inner loneliness is the power blessed by the stupid brother, but everyone except Lu Chen and Erika, the sense of loneliness seems to be quite heavy.
She glanced at Eli Yi who was holding Lu Chen's hand, well, you are indeed not alone, you can stay together forever in a place where no one is around!
"Very little..."
Erika's pretty face puffed up slightly, she felt that the game was very unfair.
"Then give mine to Erika."
Lu Chen directly handed the cigarette case to Huiliyi, anyway, the croupier just said that the chips can be transferred outside the venue.
Under Xia Mi's strange gaze, Lu Chen spread his hands and took a step back, "You guys start, I don't want to play."
Brother Lu, you are too self-aware! ?
This is the voice of many people present.
"I'll do it for Godzilla's sake."
Erika clenched her fists tightly, looking like she was working hard, she raised her fighting spirit...even though she didn't know the rules of Texas Hold'em at all.
"Does everyone play Texas Hold'em?"
Chu Zihang asked after taking his seat.
"Understood."
Lu Mingfei nodded to show that he at least knew the rules.
Zero also said blankly: "I understand."
Eliyi raised her hand like a good baby, "Brother Chu, please tell me the rules."
Chu Zihang was always so careful. He actually knew that Erika was the only one present who didn't understand, but he still asked everyone, so that those who didn't understand would feel that this was a collective explanation, not that he was embarrassed by his own ignorance.
"The rules are very simple. The croupier will give us two hidden cards in the first hand, and then five open cards. The croupier will turn over the open cards in turn according to the number of rounds. The first three cards, and the last two times are all one cards. In each round, before the open cards are revealed, players have to bet in turn, and they can also raise. After the raise, others can choose to follow, and if they don’t follow, they will fold.”
"If everyone else folds in the middle, you will directly become the final winner. If there are still people on the table in the last round, open the cards and compare the size. The best five cards are combined with the arrangement in the player's hand. Combinations, whoever has the bigger suit wins."
"Flush, straight flush, three of a kind, four of a kind, etc. are all big cards. Erika can give up a round with a small chip first. I will explain it to you in detail during the game."
After Chu Zihang finished explaining, Eliyi had roughly understood the rules, but also accepted Chu Zihang's suggestion, "Thank you, Senior Brother Chu."
"Senior Brother Chu, why do you understand so well? It's concise and to the point, as if you often play cards?"
Xia Mi asked curiously, she had never seen Chu Zihang play poker in the college, and she was actually only half optimistic about Chu Zihang, but now seeing the other party's poker face and academic appearance, it was a bit out of line.
Chu Zihang exchanged his compass for a hundred bronze coins, and said flatly, "I understand."
