Chapter 1804 The Card Game at the Bazaar

Although you can't see the Black Mist camp near the bonfire where the devil lives, in fact, you can walk more than 20 steps along the path and you will be within the range of the camp.

The surrounding air became colder, and the penetrating silence made the soul instinctively feel the dangerous and oppressive atmosphere.Everyone shut their mouths, just like last time, in order to pass safely and not get lost accidentally, four people lined up, and the people behind put their hands on the shoulders of the previous person.

Miss Higgins, the witch, still controlled the black scale that Shad had taken a fancy to and walked in the front. Behind her was the old Mrs. Miles, followed by Shad, and finally the boy.

Because the goal was clear this time, Miss Higgins led a group of people directly into the camp, and then moved carefully on the path among the shadow vendors.

This time the four of them walked in a completely different direction from the last time, which meant that although the experience gained last time could still be used, what they would encounter along the way was completely unknown.

The light of the four torches can only illuminate the goods on the stalls on both sides of the road. Under the light of the fire, everyone who is walking has a different expression on their faces.Miss Higgins was worried about herself and Mrs. Miles, the old lady was determined to put all her eggs in one basket, Shade was frowning and thinking about the confusion in his heart, and the boy behind him was worrying with a gloomy face.

There was no sound, except for the burning flame, even the sound of footsteps was swallowed by the black mist.There was a faint smell of rancidity in the air, and the black figures in various poses standing still behind the booth had no faces, but seemed to be watching them.

The observation while walking made Xia De confirm again that although these shadows have different postures, their postures are quite consistent.He noticed this the first time he came here, and now he noticed it again, so he felt a little more real about the other speculations that these things were not demons.

But Miss Higgins, who was walking ahead, suddenly slowed down while Xia De was thinking.It wasn't that they had reached their destination, but that the still black shadow in front suddenly started to move, which meant that they had encountered the "camp activities" that they had to participate in again.

It was the black shadow on the left side of the path between the stalls, and in front of the black shadow was a rotten wooden table with a pile of cards on it.

When Xia De looked over, the black shadow just picked up the cards with the golden balance pattern on the back, then picked five cards and put them in front of him, and then picked five cards and put them on the table on the outward side, and finally Putting three black coins at hand, he made a gesture of please.

"This is... playing cards?"

Xia De was a little surprised, and so was Miss Higgins:
"Can you play cards?"

She asked Xia De softly, the champion of Dacheng Player 1853 was about to answer, and realized what time it was:
"But I don't know what cards it's playing."

Miss Higgins tried to ignore the other party and walked directly in front of the card table, but just as she took a step, there was a clattering sound of chains in the darkness where the light of the torch could not illuminate.

The young red-haired witch glanced at Xia De, who nodded cautiously:
"Just try it out. Are you coming or am I?"

The old Mrs. Miles, who was between the two, retreated consciously behind the witch, while the boy approached the old lady.Miss Higgins was obviously quite afraid of this, and Shad saw her thoughts:

"This time I come, you owe me a favor."

"I see."

So Xia De walked to the table and took a look at Soi Ying:
"I'll play cards with you."

It seems that if you win, you can take away three coins, but what happens if you lose is not yet clear.Suppressing the uneasiness in his heart, Xia De stretched out his hand and opened the first card in front of him. The moment the card was revealed, his eyes widened:
"how is this possible?"

The face of the card is the Moon 4 in the Rhodes card.

Xia De is quite sure that there is absolutely no Rhodes card and Rhodes card rules in this era. Even the Vientiane Impermanence card should be the rule of the "game of life" in this era.

"Because I opened the cards, all cards are the rules of the Rhodes card? This black shadow can give different types of cards according to my origin? Wait, it."

He suddenly realized something, and quickly turned his head to look around.The pupils shrank slightly, and immediately realized what he had thought:
"That's fun."

He glanced at his first card again, and then asked the black shadow in front of him:

"What rules?"

The shadow stretched out three fingers, and Xia De, who was quite familiar with the rules of the Rhodes card, understood:

"Five cards for three games?"

Sombra nodded slightly.

This is a very special Rhodes card rule, that is, select a specific number of cards, and then turn over these cards in turn to complete a specific round of the game.Each card can only be used once, and the cards must be played in order, and only the next card can be viewed in advance.That is, if three cards are viewed, the first two must be played.

It is rare to encounter similar rules in regular games, and this peculiar rule is more common in banquet games.Under such a rule, the most important rule is that there must still be cards in the hand in the last round, so if you want to win under a similar rule system, you must not only count your own points, but also the number of remaining rounds and the number of cards in hand.

After thinking about this, Xia De re-covered Moon 4, and then pushed forward:
"In the first game, I will play a card."

Sombra pushed the first two cover cards forward, and after opening them together, Xia De's "Moon 4" really lost to the combination of "Sun 5" and "Flower 3".

Xia De continued to look at his own cards, the second card was a 7 of stars, and the third card was a 5 of the sun.He thought about it, skillfully raised the corner of the fourth card with the third card, and found that it was 8 stars.

He breathed a sigh of relief, and wanted to push out the three cards together, but the witch around him stopped him:
"Although I don't understand the rules, there is only one card left in the end, isn't it too risky?"

"I have already lost one round, and I must not lose the second round."

Shad gave such an explanation, and then saw with Miss Higgins that Sombra pushed out two cards, leaving only the last one.

"If it only comes out this round, I have other options, but now I have to use three."

Saying so, he flipped his cards.Shade had a total of 20 points, while Sombra was Moon 9, Flower 1, and lost the second round with 10 points.

In this way, the final victory is just a comparison of the size of the last remaining card between the two sides.

There's nothing to hesitate about. Sombra lifted his cover, and Miss Higgins took a slight breath of Sun's 11 points. Although she didn't know the upper limit of blackjack, she could see that she was just comparing sizes.

"Too bad."

Xia De put his hand on his card, took a deep breath and looked at the back of the card, then closed his eyes and threw the card on the table, the sound of cracking was strange in the quiet camp.He was very sure that he would never lose, not because of the blessing of the God of Gamblers, but because——

"Flowers 12."

The face of the card is surprisingly the one that Shade got from Stone Oxenfurt [Genesis·Earth].His ability to reveal the five Impermanence cards other than "Founding Silver Moon" at any time and anywhere comes from the inexplicable "new power" after each major event of the chosen one, and this special power has not been affected for the time being. Without any restrictions, it can of course be used in the Fifth Era.

Shade felt the witch holding her breath. None of the other cards had faces, only this one had faces, so Miss Higgins could tell that there was something wrong with Shade's last card.Of course, if she looked at the back of the card again, she would see more problems.

Xia De also knew this, so he silently looked at the black figure behind the table, waiting for the other party to make a judgment.

A few seconds later, the black shadow did not point at the card drawn by Xia De and accuse him of cheating, but slowly pushed the three black coins in his hand to him.

There was a smile on Xia De's face. It wasn't that he was happy that his coins had become four, but that he had verified one of his conjectures.Although the Vientiane Impermanence card is miraculous, it must be recognized, otherwise it is an ordinary card, and if it is an ordinary card, Sombra has no reason to accept his cheating game.

So the current situation is that this card is obviously recognized, otherwise it is impossible to explain why the other party did not accuse him of cheating.

"Which existences can recognize the Impermanence Card of Vientiane?"

He initially understood what the tree father wanted him to do this time, demons, black shadows, etc., were all just a cover to mislead him.The god of wealth and trade really knows how to joke.

At this time, Xia De's number of coins had increased to four. After a sigh of relief, the group set off again in a row with their hands on their shoulders.

In the next few minutes, they did not encounter this kind of special stall in the market again, and the existence of special stalls is actually rare here.

And after a hundred steps away from the black shadow playing cards, Miss Higgins stopped again, because the black balance had regained its balance here.

Just now the devil said that the merchant the boy was looking for was on the way old Mrs. Miles was looking for, so this was the boy's destination.

Miss Higgins, who was at the front, made way for the boy to get closer to the booth. When the boy passed behind him, Shade suddenly reached out and pressed his trembling shoulder:

"Do you know what is the most important thing people think about before doing something?"

"Will it succeed?"

The boy stood there without looking back at Xia De, Xia De always felt that he was afraid to meet his gaze.

"No. The most important thing before doing something is to think about whether you should do it."

Xia De gave his own answer, the boy nodded, broke free from Xia De's hand and came to the booth, Miss Higgins looked at Xia De in surprise, Xia De shook his head slightly, and came to the boy's side.
