Gao Jin held the card and gently touched it. It was very light, very thin, and very gentle, just like a peerless swordsman cherishing his sword, or a macheteman who killed like numbing grass brushing his blade with his finger.
He no longer treated gambling cards as a prop, but as his friend.
One with the card! Gao Jin sighed softly. Although he was the God of Gambling, he had not reached the realm of the integration of human and card. This was really a pity for him. However, he believed that his disciple could do it in the future. The student would surpass the master, even though his disciple was still a rookie and still had to rely on his master to support him.
Gao Jin found it a little funny. He withdrew his thoughts and glanced at Wei Fan, who was opposite him. Then, he flicked the cards lightly. The cards flew to the gambling table in front of him one by one, arranged in a straight line, and the distance was exactly the same.
Wei Fan's eyes narrowed, and his expression became serious.
The corner of Gao Jin's mouth curled up, and his finger gently swept across the side of the card. The card was immediately picked up by his just right strength, standing upright on the table. There were fifty-four cards, just like fifty-four soldiers standing still.
Gao Jin glanced at the cards standing on the table. In this glance, he had already looked through all fifty-four cards. There were no duplicate cards, and there were no marks and scratches on the front and back of the cards.
Then, the cards fell on the table. Gao Jin grabbed them and the cards were neatly piled together.
Gao Jin's actions were time-consuming, but they were actually completed in ten seconds.
Gao Jin glanced at Commander Lu and said with a smile,""You can start now. Deal the cards!"
Only then did the surrounding commoners come back to their senses and immediately exclaimed and cheered in unison.
Zhu 'er excitedly grabbed Li Yuxiang's arm and screamed: "Big Brother is so powerful! Sister Yuxiang, don't you agree?"
Li Yuxiang smiled and nodded. The corners of her mouth curled up as she teased,"Your big brother is naturally powerful!"
Commander Lu's expression changed slightly, but he quickly adjusted his expression. He picked up the cards on the table and said,"Today, I will personally be the card officer. In order to save time, we will decide the winner in one round and bet on the big and small! The rule is, after I'm done shuffling the cards, each side will draw one card from the fifty-four cards. The one with the highest card wins! What else do you two not understand?”
Bet on big or small? That simple? The surrounding commoners were a little disappointed. They had wanted to see a high-difficulty gambling game, but they did not expect the rules to be so simple. Everyone knew how to bet on big and small!
However, the simpler it was, the harder it was to master!
Gambling on big and small was too much for ordinary people to rely on luck, so it was difficult to distinguish between a gambling expert and a rookie.
Of course, the experts here referred to ordinary experts!
In fact, this was also a scheme that City Lord Dugu Hong had been plotting since a long time ago. In his opinion, Gao Jin was still young. Even if he had some achievements in gambling, his name was not known in the Fourth Red City. Therefore, his gambling skills were not very brilliant. This gambling for life was probably just a dying struggle and not willing to die!
However, Dugu Hong still adopted the safest method. He wanted Gao Jin to bet on big or small. This was a game that relied heavily on luck. Even if Gao Jin was lucky enough to win one, two, ten, eight, or even a hundred, there were a total of 8,100 prisoners in the city prison. If these 8,000 people drew a big card once, Gao Jin would die without a doubt.
No matter how lucky a person was, it was impossible to draw good cards every time, right? On the other hand, no matter how bad a person's luck was, they wouldn't have bad cards, right?
With the luck of eight thousand people against one person, wasn't this a sure win?
At this moment, Dugu Hong was lying leisurely in the bedroom with his head resting on the servant girl's head. He was taking a nap! He was waiting for the good news!
Li Yuxiang's face was a little worried. This kind of blind play that couldn't see the cards really depended on luck. She didn't even dare to play like this! Moreover, this kind of game was recognized as shameless in the gambling world. Although it was not explicitly prohibited, people more or less disdained it.
The surrounding audience was more or less disappointed and disdainful.
Zhu 'er didn't really understand the many twists and turns involved, and instead felt somewhat happy in her heart. In her eyes, this would save a lot of time, and would undoubtedly be much faster.
As the cards flew up and down, Commander Lu had already shuffled the cards.
When Gao Jin saw Lu Youqing's shuffling technique, he initially determined that the guard commander in the City Lord's Mansion was also a gambling expert. He was a little surprised, but then he was relieved.
In the magical world of gambling, everything was related to gambling skills. Perhaps it was the same for being an official. To be an official, you might not need to have invincible and unfathomable gambling skills, but you must know some gambling skills. At the very least, you must get rid of the lowly title of a husband.
The word " husband " was used by the gambling world to address men who did not know how to gamble, while the word " shell girl " was used to address women who did not know how to gamble.
The laws of the four countries clearly stated that husbands and shell women were the lowest and had no right to be officials!
Gao Jin nodded and glanced at Lu Youqing and Wei Fan.""That's good! It was simple and effortless! City Lord is really thoughtful!"
Wei Fan was also a little excited. Perhaps he could be released from prison without any crime today! There was at least a 50% chance. The confidence that had been hit by Gao Jin just now had also recovered a lot in an instant.
Lu Youqing placed the cards between the two of them and signaled Gao Jin and Wei Fan to draw.
Gao Jin smiled at Wei Fan and said,""You draw first!"
Wei Fan didn't refuse. He hesitated for a while and pulled out a card. Then, he used his hands to cover the corner of the card and looked at it nervously. He found that it was a 10 of Hearts..
Wei Fan heaved a sigh of relief. This card wasn't too big, but it wasn't funny at all. The cards bigger than him had sixteen four-colored JQKa cards and two King's Fate cards, which was eighteen cards. The cards smaller than him had a total of two to nine and thirty-two cards. Of course, the other three 10s were also tied.
When it was a tie, they could only bet on another round!
Gao Jin unconsciously touched his left pinky and gently turned it.
When Li Yuxiang saw Gao Jin's small action, she did not know why she was actually a little relieved, but she still prayed softly,""Enemy, you must win!"
"Big brother, you can do it!" Zhu 'er's small face was tense, obviously also somewhat nervous.
The surrounding commoners also held their breaths.
A heavenly king in one hand and death in the other! Using a gamble to pay with one's life was really a test of one's heart. It was too exciting!
Gao Jin turned around and smiled at Zhu Er and Li Yuxiang. Then he closed his eyes and grabbed the third card on the left. He pulled it out with lightning speed and flipped it on the gambling table.
"Jack of Hearts!"
He was just a little older than Wei Fan!
Everyone except Lu Youqing and Wei Fan let out a huge sigh of relief. It was as if they could hear the sound of their hearts falling back into their stomachs.
Li Yuxiang and Zhu 'er Qiutao's pale faces also turned red.
Zhu 'er giggled.
Wind cheered from the sidelines and jumped up.
The corner of Gao Jin's mouth curled up. He looked at Wei Fan and Lu Youqing and said,""I think I won!"
Lu Youqing's face twitched, and he was secretly resentful. However, he immediately relaxed and thought to himself, Kid, don't be anxious. There are still 8,101 people behind!
Wei Fan sighed in disappointment and was taken away by the soldiers.
His hopes of getting out of prison were dashed!
"Next!" Commander Lu said in a low voice. Thief, Wu Daniu!"
Everyone's hearts couldn't help but jump.
……
This continued until the third day. Gao Jin fought with all 8,102 prisoners in the Four Red Cities Prison.
Strangely enough, Gao Jin always won by a point.
Although there were also prisoners who drew the King's Fate Card in the first hand, the other card would also be drawn by Gao Jin and end in a tie. They could only gamble again. In the second round, they would be cut off by Gao Jin.
In these three days, thousands of commoners had gathered to watch every day. Gao Jin's name had unknowingly been spread by everyone, and everyone knew about him.
Gao Jin had defeated 8,000 prisoners and was regarded as a legend by the Red Fourth City!
However, Zhu 'er, Li Yuxiang, and Qiu Tao had to experience close to three thousand times of fear every day! Worry, joy, a continuous cycle.
Wind was one of them. In his heart, this Big Brother Gao was even more awesome, making him admire him endlessly!
In the City Lord's Mansion, Dugu Hong was so angry that he smashed his most treasured vase.
"Damn it, Gao Jin, although you won against those lowly criminals, this old man will not let you succeed! Official life gambler, I will definitely surprise you!”
Dugu Hong muttered darkly.
